Chapter 68: Deliverance
Seeing this, the round-faced man smiled even more presumptuously than Fang Cai, looked at Huan Ci with burning eyes, and asked, "I don't know how King Dingyuan is now?" Although he has defected, he used to be my friend, so the county lord should call me uncle, and this is the full courtesy. β
"Father is very good, it's hard for you to remember him." Huan Ci smiled and didn't laugh.
But she finally guessed why the man hated her so much. Her father was very strict, and this person must have been so angry with her father that he targeted her like this.
Thinking about it like this, Huan Ci was relieved. Why bother with such a meaningless thing?
She no longer looked at the round-faced man, nor answered what he said, and tasted the wine alone.
The round-faced man sneered at her a few more times, but when she didn't respond, he was about to be annoyed and angry, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of several women walking towards her.
I don't know what means General Jin used to hide so many stunning colors, everyone looked at them for a while, and then ignored the words of the round-faced man.
"Which of you would like to serve Lord Fu?" General Jin raised his chin to help Fu Shen, then poured himself a glass of wine and looked playfully at the women in front of him.
The women looked at each other and then lowered their heads.
General Jin sneered: "I don't want the glory and wealth sent to the door, but I know that it is a group of fools." β
When the women heard this, they fell to their knees and did not dare to look up at her.
Seeing this, General Jin laughed and said, "If any of you can let Master Fu drink this cup of wine in my hand, I will give her two hundred taels of silver and let her leave this place." β
There will be brave men under the great reward. Soon, a very beautiful woman in red stood up and said coquettishly, "The slave is willing to give it a try." β
"Hahaha, worthy of my people." General Kim laughed, hugged the woman who stepped forward, and squeezed her as he handed her the glass.
The beauty laughed, pinched the wine glass with two fingers, and shook it step by step.
Huan Ci originally looked like he had nothing to do with himself, but now when he saw this, he actually had the idea of watching the excitement, tilting his head to the left.
When the beauty approached Fu Shen, the arm holding the wine glass wrapped around his neck, and the other hand delicately touched him, and said in a very charming voice: "My lord, the slave is willing to serve you." β
Fu Shen glanced at Huan Ci coldly, and then looked away, not looking at the woman who was sticking to him.
The beauty was not discouraged, and her soft and boneless hands began to circle on the man's clothes: "Why is your face so cold? β
Fu Shen finally glanced at her, the corners of his mouth slightly hooked, and his eyes were full of mockery.
The beauty thought that the time had come, so she changed the wine glass to her other hand, gently raised it to Fu Shen's mouth, and said softly: "Slave feed the adults to drink." β
Fu Shen chuckled, so that people could not see the joy and anger. But the next moment, he took the wine glass from the beauty's hand and handed it to the woman's mouth.
The beauty blinked, and was about to drink the glass of wine, but she heard General Jin say behind her: "If you can let Lord Fu drink this wine, I will let you go." But if not, General Ben will not let you live until tomorrow. β
The woman's face changed and she wanted to snatch the wine from Fu Shen's hand, but Fu Shen stared at her coldly, and did not intend to return the wine glass to her.
After a stalemate for a moment, the beauty finally panicked, looked at General Jin with a mocking face, and quickly knelt on the ground.
"Looks like you can't." As if he was saying something very ordinary, General Jin raised his chin at the little guy on the side, "Drag her out and cut her down." β
The beauty suddenly lost her face and kept kowtowing.
"Wait." Huan Ci smiled and stood up, "I can let Master Fu drink this wine for her." It's just that if Lord Fu drinks it, General Jin must speak and let this beauty go. β
"General Ben will not break his word." General Kim sneered.
Huan Ci raised his eyebrows and walked slowly towards Fu Shen. She originally planned to snatch the wine glass from Fu Shen's hand with force, but as soon as she touched the man's hand, the wine glass was moved to her hand.
The surprise on her face flashed, and she suddenly hesitated. But when she looked at the woman who was looking at her expectantly, she was ruthless, took the glass of wine in her mouth, and then pinched Fu Shen's chin and leaned over.
The lively banquet fell silent for a moment, and Huan Ci even heard the sound of things falling down.
It was only a few breaths, but she felt as if it had been a long time. Finally, she walked away from the man's eyes with a red face, threw the wine glass on the ground, gave General Jin a cold look, and asked, "How?" β
"Wonderful! It's wonderful! General Kim clapped his hands and laughed unsightly.
"Give her the money and let her go." Huan Ci said softly.
General Jin looked back at the attendant behind him: "Don't go yet." β
"The general is a good talker, and Huan admires it." Huan Ci smiled at him, and walked past him to return to his place.
From Fang Cai, until now, she didn't dare to look at Fu Shen. She thought that the man's face must be very ugly, and besides, she didn't dare to look at him now.
Sure enough, she thought right. Fu Shenzheng had a dark face, pinching the jade pendant in his hand creaked, and the ups and downs of his chest were particularly obvious.
Staring at the woman who was leaving, he finally sneered and said, "General Jin's wine is really hard to drink, Fu Mou is not blessed, the general should invite others to drink." β
So saying, he got up and walked out. Seeing this, Huan Ci hurriedly said: "It's really unpleasant, I'm going to leave too." β
It happened that the subordinate came over with a silver ticket, and Huan Ci was stuffed directly into the woman's arms, and pulled her out.
"Ziye, why don't you keep up?" The round-faced man laughed.
Kong Lin glared at him unhappily, but when he saw the eyes of General Jin's order, he had no choice but to follow Huan Ci out.
Fu Shen walked so fast that Huan Ci couldn't catch up with him at all. By the time she left the General's Mansion, Fu Shen's carriage had already gone away. She rolled her eyes at the carriage, took the beauty's hand and asked, "Where are you going?" I'll have someone send you. β
"I don't really have anywhere to go." The beauty whispered, which was completely different from the style of the pavilion just now.
Huan Ci sighed helplessly: "You follow me first, you don't have to worry about it after you leave here, in short, stay away from this place." β
Looking back at Kong Lin who was following, she sighed and shook her head: "You can go back with me first." Zongzheng Law deserves this emperor, it's really not good. β
Kong Lin was amused by these words, turned his head to look at the little guy standing at the door, and said in a low voice: "He has no foundation, so he naturally has many difficulties. β
"No wonder he always wants to win over his father, but he is a person who dares to use people, but it is a pity for the innocent people."
"Let's go, I don't want to stay here anymore." After General Kong Lin helped her into the carriage, he looked up at the low-key and luxurious plaque of the General's Mansion and squinted slightly.
On the way back, Huan Ci chatted with the beauty all the way and knew what happened to her.
The beauty's name is Zhao Qing, who lost her family due to the flood a few years ago, so she went into exile in Puzhou. Later, she went to a large family to be a maid, but she was taken by the young master of that family, so her life was not easy.
A few days ago, General Jin went to Puzhou and stayed in that family's house for a few days. Before he left, he forcibly kidnapped several good sons, and when the young lady saw him like this, she made a plan to dedicate Zhao Qing to him. Although the young master was angry, he was forced by General Jin's authority and did not dare to say no, so she was brought here.
Between words, Huan Ci unconsciously liked her more. rushed at what she had just done to be let go, and Huan Ci admired her decently.
"You mean, the women who were with you just now were taken captive from Puzhou by General Jin? The local officials didn't dare to say anything? She asked, frowning.
Zhao Qing lowered his eyes and said softly: "Who dares to provoke him now?" His niece had just been made queen, and his brother-in-law had been crowned the prince of the country, and now they were in full swing. Besides, the emperor is far away from the sky, and no one is going to report him, how can the emperor know these things. β
"The girl is right." Kong Lin said in a deep voice, "It's just that he used to know jealousy. It's only recently that I heard that the emperor loves the queen very much, so he is more presumptuous. β
Huan was angry, and just wanted to scold him a few words, but suddenly remembered what his father had done, which didn't seem to be a good thing, so he hurriedly silenced and lifted the curtain to look outside.
The two of them got out of the carriage with Huan Ci. As soon as A-Yao saw Zhao Qing, she leaned in and looked at this strange woman. She was straight-mouthed and quick-hearted, and after a while, she became familiar with Zhao Qing.
Just as a few people were sitting in the side room and chatting, a small guy came into the courtyard, looked left and right, and then walked towards them, and said to Kong Lin with a smile: "Master Kong, the master said that you don't have to go back tonight, just live here." He instructed you to be sure to serve the lord well. β
When the little guy said this, he couldn't suppress the mocking smile on his face. Ah Yao really didn't understand this, and frowned slightly.
"The county lord's words are just a joke, and the general misunderstood." Kong Lin explained.
Huan Ci sneered, stared at the little guy and said, "Thank you for your general's kindness, I stayed, you can go." β
The little guy's face changed, but he didn't dare to say anything after all, and when he walked outside the door, he let out a very low "puff", and then ran away without a trace.
Kong Lin glanced at her worriedly: "Miss Huan, do you want your reputation?" β
"I don't have that thing anymore." Huan Ci sneered, "Besides, it's useless to come." Now the rumors must have spread, and even if you go back, you won't be able to stop them from chewing on the root of their tongues. And if you go back, he won't let you go. β
"Miss Huan." Kong Lin looked at her gratefully.
"I know what you're struggling with. Andβ" Huan Ci paused, and said in a low voice, "My father admires your father, for he has been depressed for a long time because he was given his death, and I should do the old man a favor." β
Hearing her mention her father, Kong Lin was inevitably moved, hung his head for a long time and didn't speak, and only after a long time did he raise his eyelids and look at her: "Miss Huan's kindness Kong will definitely not forget." β
"Okay, then I'll remember it, and I'll definitely let you pay it back in the future." Huan Ci chuckled.
Zhao Qing listened to it for a long time, and then hurriedly interjected: "Me too, I will repay the girl." β
"Don't worry, I'll settle you." Huan Ci took her hand and helped her comb the broken hair next to her ear.
