Chu Jiuyue's scalp was numb when he heard this, and he sighed: "Why is it so cruel? ”

The female slave buried her head lower, and her tone was desolate: "The way of the world is like this, born in slave status, bought and sold by others, and has long been accustomed to changing masters back and forth. ”

Chu Jiujiu's expression was introverted, thinking that the slave system could not be changed, but it would take some effort to change it.

Since the previous dynasty, Da Jiang, all the important ministers who have had evil deeds, those who have been exiled from the house, the relatives of the family, and the children will be submerged into the slave family for generations, since Chu September, that is, since the original owner ascended the throne, he has taken the exile of the family as a child's play, and there are more and more people who are slaves, and they are out of control.

There is another world under Yong'an City, just like an underground market, which is very large, and the biggest difference from the market on the street is that it is in the dark.

Looking up and looking down, there is no sunlight, only a warm light, half-ambiguously illuminating the underground road.

It is known as the city of Shura.

It's hell.

And the most common thing that appeared in this Shura City was the business of slave trading.

If you look a little good, you will be taken away like Shangguan Yi, go to the Qinglou as a small man, be a courtesan, have no piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and can only rely on selling yourself to make a living.

And the others, who are strong and healthy, are like the female slaves in front of Chu Jiujiu, who have the opportunity to be selected by the housekeeper who went out to buy slaves in the mansion of high-ranking officials and nobles, and brought them back to the mansion to serve.

The rest is gone.

These are all brushstrokes in the author's pen, but Chu Jiujiu remembers it especially clearly because Shura City is too cruel and violent.

Chu Jiujiu raised his eyes again to look at the slave girl's eyes, full of pity: "Don't you complain?" I mean, you hate the empress, don't you? ”

In the next second, the slave girl gritted her teeth, the anger on her face was overflowing, and Chu Jiu naturally looked carefully.

He hung his head and was silent.

Sure enough, everyone in the world wants to crush the original owner, crush the bones and scatter ashes, and die without a whole body.

"Hate! How can you not hate! The slave girl's eyes suddenly rose into two fires, and gradually annihilated: "But what about hatred? She is the empress who covers the sky with one hand, and one sentence can turn the whole Dongguan upside down, how can we ants be able to match. ”

"Doctor Flower, what about you? What do you hate about her? ”

That's right, the reason why the slave girl in front of her is so open-mouthed is that this is what everyone in the world is talking about.

As a result of the discussion, no one wanted to keep the mediocre empress alive.

If it weren't for Chang Chuan's ruthlessness, the people under his hands would be well-trained and obedient to Chang Chuan's words.

The original owner is afraid that he has already been cut by the people.

Thinking of this, Chu Jiujiu was a little grateful to Chang Chuan, she came through and didn't die, thanks to him.

Chu Jiujiu thought for a while, "I'm the same as you. ”

Doctor Hua smiled. The slave girl stepped aside and lifted a lamp, and gently approached the lotus lamp, and the candlelight lit with a sting, beating in the night, "How can you be a slave?" ”

No slave can ever be a healer.

Healers, in Dongguan country, are sacred, and even dignitaries must be respected.

How can it be a slave?

"What's wrong with the slaves?" Chu Jiuyue's tone rose and he said firmly: "Slaves can also get rid of them with their own abilities, isn't it?" ”

The slave girl nodded heavily, "Hmm." ”

The slave girl's eyes lit up, "Just like Steward Li, he was not surnamed Li, but Steward Li is very powerful and smart, without passing the assessment, he was promoted to the housekeeper by the lord by exception, and in the Li Mansion is one person above ten thousand people, I pray to my mother every day, hoping that she is in the spirit of heaven and can bless me to pass this assessment." ”

Didn't Li Changshu have the surname Li?

Chu Jiujiu hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't help but ask, "What is Steward Li's original surname?" When will I be assessed? ”

The slave girl pondered for a moment, then frowned.

Seeing this, Chu Jiujiu thought that he must not be able to say, "Forget it, I'm just curious." ”

"No, I can say." The slave girl saw the little boy in the aqua blue robe in front of her, raised her feet and was about to leave, and felt that she must not make this little boy angry, "The master once instructed that anyone who can live in the east wing must know everything and say everything, not to mention that this time the flower doctor is still arranged in Meiyuan." ”

"It's just that Steward Li's real surname is not known to anyone except the master." The slave girl apologized: "The slave only heard that Steward Li is from Liangzhou City. ”

"Liangzhou?" Chu Jiujiu asked himself in a low voice.

Liangzhou, why is this name so familiar......

Isn't that the place where the emperor's parents died?

Liangzhou, Liangzhou.

It's a lot of things.

At that time, Liangzhou was besieged by the other three countries and was crumbling, if it were not for the heroic struggle of Emperor Linfeng, there would be no Dongguan State today.

"Ahh

"Second Miss!"

"Second Miss! We were wrong! Never again! Woowoo...... Yes! The minion knows that he is wrong! ”

The wails and screams of one after another were endless.

interrupted Chu Jiujiu's train of thought, followed the source of the sound, and raised his eyes to look over.

"He" walked to the east wing, and it took a quarter of an hour, and the road was winding and winding, and it was not short, but the wailing at this moment was really heard.

What kind of punishment was used to make those minions scream like killing pigs, and it resounded in the sky.

The sky, which was originally full of stars, seemed to be also blocked by black clouds, hiding in the dark and silently peeping into the world.

Chu Jiujiu was shocked when he heard it, and the warm and pure male voice sounded again: "It's dark, and Miss Lao is leading the way, so let's go and rest first." ”

The slave girl was calm, there was no trace of ups and downs on her face, and she handed over the lotus lamp in her hand with a smile and said, "The flower doctor will rest early, and I will wait here tomorrow." ”

Chu Jiujiu took the lamp, nodded, and walked towards the arch.

"He" followed the words of the slave girl just now, walked forward, and saw an arch turning to the right, going forward fifty meters.

Stop it.

Entering the eye, it is an elegant and deep courtyard, which is a two-story wooden house, with two floors up and down, and the outside is blocked by bamboo leaves and cypress.

The clean-up person was very careful and knew that the night was dark, and left lamps in the rooms on the first and second floors.

The three or two plum trees that happened to be reflected outside, the red plums, under the light, were in full swing, cold and noble.

Chu Jiujiu walked all the way to Meiyuan, and the piercing wail in his ears made "him" a little gloating, but the more he listened, the more upset he became.

Seeing the beautiful scenery like a picture scroll in front of him, Chu Jiujiu was in a good mood.

Chu Jiujiu, who had been nervous for a day, fell asleep with cerebral palsy to the bed.

No matter what disturbs him from the outside world, he can't disturb "his" dreams.

On the other side, Li Ru didn't intend to let go of the group of minions, and the blood-stained whip in his hand was thrown to the ground: "Dare to take Miss Ben's words as a deaf ear, I'm afraid you're tired of it!" ”

The white pebbles on the road leading to the dining room, already stained red with blood, spread down the cracks in front of the fat man in the gray shirt.

The man's face was hideous, and he glanced at Li Ru on the side from time to time, and when he saw that Li Ru was angry, he snatched the stick from the hand of the slave next to him, raised his hand, and hit him fiercely, scolding while beating: "It's all your fault, it makes Ru'er displeased!" Damn it! ”

The bloody body of the beaten minion twitched instinctively, his mouth thought, blood gushed out, he couldn't make a sound, and his voice was already hoarse.

There will always be a slave who doesn't know whether to live or die, and he speaks: "Second Miss...... The minions really don't know what to displease you, you follow ...... Tell the minion, and the minion will change. ”

"Yes, Second Miss, you are the most kind on weekdays, what happened to you today? But there are people who ...... What did I tell you? ”

The five minions who were beaten with blurred flesh and blood glared at Chunhua and Qiushi in unison.

Seeing the two people hanging their heads and weak hearts, they even believed that it was what the two of them said that made them suffer this annihilating pain.

They were sleeping in the dark, but they were suddenly put on the bench in their sleep, and as soon as they came up, they were beaten on the head and in the face, and they didn't know what was happening.

Li Ru sneered and asked, "Why don't you listen to Miss Ben's instructions and prepare well in the dining room?" ”

The group of minions were eager to tear Chunhua and Qiushi apart alive, and it must have been the two of them chewing their tongues, saying that they were not obedient and busy in the dining room, which made the second lady so angry.

It's just that they made a mistake in their calculations, the second miss never had dinner after three o'clock, and the uncle was even more impossible.

Presumably, Hua Qi'an must have escaped from the Li Mansion early.

This dinner was not served, and it must have been poured out in private by Chunhua and Qiushi.

Now I just want to take revenge on them, and I just sue the second lady.

Come to think of this.

One of the minions was the first to speak: "Second Miss, the dinner is prepared by the minions themselves, and they don't dare to slack off." ”

"Yes, Second Miss, this is clear that the wicked person sued first, Chunhua and Qiushi were tired early and ran to rest, and they are still barking here."

Immediately after, the voices were higher and higher.

They were about to faint just now, but at this moment, it was like a steady stream of power was being injected into their bodies, making their words more and more difficult to hear.

The summary is that the meals are all prepared by them, and the two wicked people in Chunhua and Qiushi sue first.

Li Ru's face was buried very low, blocked in the shadows, and she couldn't see her expression clearly.

But it makes everyone clearly feel that the air around them has frozen and formed ice scabs.

She raised her head suddenly, her face gloomy, and she glared at them more terrifyingly than a ghost, and a voice came out between her teeth: "Call me!" ”

The minions who were beaten with blurred flesh and blood widened their eyes in horror and looked at Li Ru in disbelief.

Why?

Chunhua and Qiushi are not as flattering as they are, for so many years, for the second miss, the two of them are dispensable, how can they compare with the people who surround the second miss all the year round?

Why did the second lady believe the two of them today, but not them?

While they were wondering, Li Ru shook the whip, kicked up a layer of dust on the ground, and the whip fell, and the whip hit the minions hard.

They are like fish on a board, to be slaughtered.

"Doctor Hua, you are a distinguished guest of the Li Mansion, and you should be treated well, but because of your group of lowly minions, it will definitely make the Flower Doctor feel that the Li Mansion is not well entertained!"

"You say!" The whip in Li Ru's hand fell heavily again: "Isn't it damned!" ”

What?!!

The flower doctor actually stayed!

How can it be?

Did you already have dinner just now?

But the more than 200 doctors, all of whom are famous people in the world, are at a loss, and a young man who looks less than twenty years old can stay and become a distinguished guest of the Li Mansion.

What should I do?

It's dead this time!

At this moment, the minion who had just been whipped died of excessive blood loss, and the whites of his eyes turned outward, and rolled from the bench into a pool of blood on the ground with a clatter.

The four people lying on the bench on the side looked at the dead slave in unison, silently closed their eyes, and waited for the final death judgment.

"Zizheng, I'll leave it to you here, pull it all down, and solve it." Li Ru looked at Fang Zizheng on the side with a smile.

Li Ru casually handed the blood-stained long whip in his hand to Fang Zizheng, rubbed his hand from him twice, and wiped his hand clean.

"Okay, leave it to me, Ru'er don't worry."

Fang Zizheng responded with a smile, and immediately called someone, carried the scattered minions, and dragged them out of the Li Mansion.

In the early morning of the next day, a place on the horizon had just been white, the sun was rising, and the orange-yellow light was sprinkled to the earth, sprinkled into the bamboo leaves and cypresses, and shone on the beautiful little boy.

The little boy slept very unsteadily, his brows were a little wrinkled, but it did not affect his peerless appearance at all, shining in the sun, his delicate face was picturesque, more strokes were too much, less strokes were too little, it was just the perfect bone phase.

Chu Jiujiu's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and he opened his hazy sleepy eyes.

An unfamiliar environment made Chu Jiujiu a little uncomfortable.

Today, I must make it clear to Li Changshu that I have to go back first.

Otherwise, I'm really afraid that Suna kid will do something that day.

I was afraid that he would rush back to Wuliang Mountain overnight and bring a group of robbers on the mountain to Li Mansion to ask for someone.

Chu Jiujiu believed in his heart that Su would do this that day.

This kid is impulsive, doesn't look at it, and still doesn't feel at ease.

Chu Jiujiu put on a child-watching mentality, pushed open the window, and looked out at the osmanthus tree.

Just this glance made "he" plant his whole body.

The second floor of the plum garden is the so-called high lookout.

Chu Jiujiu saw from a distance that on the way to the main hall, Li Changshu was walking respectfully in front, followed by a man in an ink robe, the man was as green as a waterfall, with a white hosta, tied high into a high ponytail, supple to the waist.

There was a long sword with black and red spikes pinned to his waist, and a piece of mutton fat and white jade jade.

When he walked, he was calm and powerful, but he was cold step by step, as if he had formed layers of frost, and he looked like he was not approaching.

Chu Jiujiu was a little scared!

Don't be that person!

It won't be so narrow!

But that face is unforgettable when you see it, cold and noble, with sharp edges and corners, with a transcendent immortal posture.

It's just that at this time, the face was pale and looked like it was on the verge of death.

It's the emperor's speech!

Chu Jiujiu almost fell, but when he came back to his senses and thought about it, how could he be here?

Could it be that Liuyu went to ask the emperor to save himself?

It can't really be that "him" is here!

Thinking of this, seeing that the emperor was getting closer and closer to the main hall, Chu Jiujiu was busy picking up.

Looking left and right, I saw that the man in costume was not bad, and I couldn't see it at all, so I grabbed the door.

"Lord, what is the matter with your coming to your mansion today?"
