Chapter 14 Ten Miles of Qinhuai (7)

Wang Shuqiu and Li Yunshang said goodbye, came to the wing, and took Cuifeng away. Wang Shuqiu said anxiously: "Sister Li, what should I do now?" Li Yunshang said: "I didn't expect the change. It is more difficult to leave from Jifu than in Yurong Hall. If you think about it, as long as Yurong Tang can afford to pay enough ransom, there is still room for negotiation. This Jifu is never short of money, and even the mountains of gold and silver may not be able to take you away from the Jifu. ”

Wang Shuqiu groaned: "Is there no other way? Li Yunshang pondered for a moment, clapped his hands and said, "If you want to talk about others, you can't do it, but you have a way." Wang Shuqiu said happily: "Sister Li, if there is any good way, hurry up." Li Yunshang smiled: "Don't forget your identity." Wang Shuqiu said gloomily: "I am no longer the county lord!" ”

Li Yunshang patted her on the back and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't treat you as a daughter!" Wang Shuqiu said: "You mean that you want my father to send someone to save me!" He shook his head violently and said, "No, no!" I can't let my father know I'm here. Otherwise, he would be sad, in case Nishinomiya found out, it would be terrible. Never! Li Yunshang said: "This is the best and best way!" Wang Shuqiu shook her head and said, "I'd rather be here than let my father worry about me and be sad for me." Li Yunshang sighed lightly: "You are really a filial daughter, thinking about others everywhere. ”

After being silent for a while, Wang Shuqiu knocked on her forehead and said in a lost voice: "How am I confused, the nearest ones don't ask for help but go to the farthest ones." Li Yunshang asked, "Who can help?" Wang Shuqiu said: "When I left Beijing, I brought a little eunuch with me, and my father sent a brocade guard to protect hundreds of households along the way. If they had known I was here, they would have come to their rescue. They will be able to save me. Li Yunshang said: "That's easy." ”

After pondering for a while, he said: "It's a pity that I can't go, so it's better to send my personal maid to inform you." that they may save you. Wang Shuqiu was suddenly excited, held Li Yunsheng's hand, and said, "Sister Li, when I get out of this cage, we will drink for three days." Li Yunshang said with a smile: "I don't dare to compete with the number one wine fairy in the capital." The two couldn't help but smile at each other.

Wang Shuqiu then told Li Yunshang the address of Yinfeng Building in detail, and took off the jade bracelet in his right hand and handed it to Li Yunsheng, saying, "Give Zizhu." Li Yunshang took it and said, "Don't worry!" Wang Shuqiu sat quietly on the bamboo rocking chair, thinking that Shen Xiluo and Cui Wuyuan would come to the rescue, she couldn't help but be overjoyed, and lifted Erlang's legs briskly. Because she believed that they would get her out. The days of suffering are finally coming to an end! Thinking of this, Wang Shuqiu was very excited.

Soon, Li Yunshang came over quietly again and said softly: "I have sent a proper person, just waiting for news." Wang Shuqiu held her hand and said in a trembling voice: "Sister Li, thank you!" Li Yunshang smiled and said: "Silly girl, don't talk about this, what do you and I have to share with each other!" Don't forget, we'll always be good sisters. Wang Shuqiu nodded tearfully.

In the room, the two sisters talked about the dances they had learned in Beijing and studied with each other. Wang Shuqiu took out the dances she saw in Jiangnan and took them for a closer look. Li Yunshang believes that the dances in the south of the Yangtze River are soft and beautiful, and pay attention to group dances, while there are many solo dances in the north, which shows the heroic posture of the northerners. And Wang Shuqiu just had both, so that the dance developed to a higher stage.

Wang Shuqiu said: "Sister Li, out of here, let's study it together." Create a more beautiful dance. Li Yunshang clapped his hands and said: "I have long had this intention, but unfortunately I can't find such a person." The county lord had this idea, just like the heavens had arranged. Wang Shuqiu said: "Sister Li, stop calling me the county lord." Now there is a new name, called Wang Shuqiu. Li Yunshang said: "Wang Shuqiu, good name." From now on, I will call you Sister Shuqiu. ”

The two talked about it and forgot to eat and sleep, and the sky gradually darkened. Cuifeng had already come in with food. Wang Shuqiu touched her belly and said with a smile: "Look! It's time to eat again. Li Yunshang said: "You eat, rest early, and I'll come back tomorrow." As he spoke, he got up and wanted to leave.

There was a coughing sound outside, and I saw four little servants walk in and say, "Li Yunsheng, my lord is invited!" Li Yunshang followed the four little guys. The four servants sandwiched her in the middle, like a prisoner, for fear that she would escape. Li Yunshang couldn't help but be annoyed, he was invited by the Ji Mansion anyway, after all, he was a guest. How could the host treat the guests so rudely? Li Yunshang has excellent self-cultivation, and he is not as knowledgeable as the little guys.

When they came to the hall, there were servants standing on both sides, and one of them sat on a large chair. And what shocked Li Yunshang was that there was a personal maid of hers lying on the ground. I saw that her clothes were in tatters, her hair was disheveled, and her skin was swollen where her clothes were torn, and she was obviously tortured. At this time, Li Yunshang already understood what was going on, and his head was quickly thinking of a way, but he couldn't think of any way.

Ji Yizhi pointed to the maid who was beaten all over his body, and said coldly: "Li Yunsheng, you should know this girl!" Li Yunshang smiled and said, "I don't know what this girl has done?" Ji Yizhi said angrily: "You still come to ask the old man?" Li Yunsheng pretended not to understand, and said, "The concubine really doesn't know. I also hope that the old man will show one or two. Ji Yizhi said sharply: "She has done it all." You still dare to quibble. Come on, slap your mouth! ”

Li Yunshang hurriedly said: "Wait! I don't know what mistake the concubine made to make Master Ji angry? Ji Yizhi sneered: "Li Yunsheng, Li Yunsheng, your ability to pretend to be crazy and stupid is really not small." You are not dead if you don't reach the Yellow River. Li Yunshang said: "The concubine really doesn't understand what Master Ji said? ”

Ji Yizhi said: "Call that girl to say." A little guy grabbed the girl's hair and pulled it back, so painful that she said, "Ouch! "A bang. The little guy said viciously: "Repeat what you just said." Otherwise, it will make your life worse than death! The maid was obviously scared, and she didn't even dare to glance at Li Yunshang out of the corner of her eye, and said in a low voice: "It was my young lady who told me to go to Yangzhou Yinfeng Tower to find someone to rescue Miss Mengxiang." The slave and maid just acted on orders, and asked the master to let the slave and maid go of a dog's life. ”

Li Yunshang couldn't help but sigh. This maid has been with her for many years, but she didn't expect to betray her when she was in danger, although she was tortured, she was reduced to no backbone. How could it not make her both hateful and sad.

Ji Yizhi said calmly: "What else do you have to say?" Li Yunshang said after a while: "The concubine has nothing to say, but what the concubine does is worthy of her conscience." It was not her wish that Miss Mengxiang was sold here, so she begged the old man to show mercy and let this hard-working girl go. Besides, the concubine asked someone to bring a message to her family to bring a ransom to ransom people, and Master Yu Ji did nothing to lose, and he hoped that Master Ji would think twice. ”

Ji Yizhi said gloomily: "You asked the old man to put a beautiful woman worth 500,000 taels." Even if you ransom people, doesn't the old man have any money, the old man tells you that Mengxiang will never leave Jifu. He frowned, and he had already come up with a plan.
