Chapter 365: Both of them are crazy!
Yang Mu was originally very interested in Tang Jing's lip language, and pondered how to kidnap her to join the army, but now when Tang Jing took the initiative to mention it, he immediately became interested and asked, "You and Cousin Xi want to marry into the Vermilion Bird Army?" ”
Tang Jing was a little embarrassed, and said: "I am the fifth grade of martial arts, Tang Xi is the fourth grade of martial arts, and we have also been familiar with military books since we were children, and we have also trained in the army with my father in Ganzhou......"
Tang Jing's voice became smaller and smaller, she was afraid that she would drag her cousin down.
Yang Mu smiled and said, "Cousin, if you can join the Vermilion Bird Army, I can't ask for it!" ”
Tang Jing was a little hesitant and said, "But I heard that the Vermilion Bird Army is going to sell itself as a slave ......."
Yang Mu hurriedly said: "That's a last resort, it's really too difficult to recruit female soldiers, so there is a matter of signing a deed of sale." In fact, there are some people in the barracks who volunteer to join the army, but the number is very small. ”
She said a little excitedly: "In this way, cousin and wait for my uncle's reply, if my uncle agrees, I will immediately go through the formalities for you and Cousin Xi!" ”
Tang Jing smiled and said, "Then I'll thank you in advance!" I have to go back and tell Tang Xi about this! ”
Saying that she was about to turn away, she remembered something, she turned around again, and said, "I see that my aunt seems to want to join the army too......"
Yang Mu: "!! ”
Tang Jing covered her mouth and smiled: "If my cousin has time to go home, remember to talk to my aunt." ”
My aunt is forty years old, and there is a lot of things in the house, so I'm afraid I can't get out of it.
The corners of Yang Mu's mouth twitched, and he nodded helplessly, it seems that he has to go back to the Yang family early to see the Tang family.
If her father knew that he had abducted his daughter-in-law, he was afraid that he would come to settle accounts with him.
After Tang Jing said that he was going to join the army, he suddenly gave Yang Mu a reminder.
Since Tang Jing, Tang Xi, and the Tang clan all want to join the army, will there be other women in the capital who want to take the initiative to join the army?
At that time, there will be no need to sign a deed of sale for army recruitment, and the Suzaku Army will be a real army, just like it was a few decades ago.
Instead of being despised as a female soldier slave now.
Moreover, the palace will not be so jealous of the Vermilion Bird Army's deed of sale in the hands of the Yang family.
Thinking about this layer, Yang Mu hurriedly returned to the duty room to write the herb for recruiting new soldiers.
More than 200 people were killed in the Suzaku Army before, and it was the time when it was necessary to replenish manpower, which was also an opportunity.
When he was on duty at night, Yang Mu rode a horse to the hot pot restaurant, and then went out of the back door and entered a deep and uninhabited alley.
In the courtyard at the end of the alley, there is a dim light, this is the place where Aunt Luan made an appointment for her to see Mrs. Cao's personal grandmother.
The one who opened the door was a lame old servant, and when he saw Yang Mu, he only bowed slightly, and then closed the door.
The small yard is not big, only two rooms, and there are chickens and vegetables in the yard, like an ordinary farm yard.
The old servant led Yang Mu into the room on the left, and with the dim oil lamp on the kang table, Yang Mu saw the person sitting on the bed.
ochre than armor, silver hairpins, silk spring shoes, this is a typical steward dress, it looks like you have to be more than ten years old.
The old woman stood up, saluted Yang Mu slightly, and said, "I've seen the princess." ”
Yang Mu nodded, looked at the steward opposite who was not afraid of his identity, and asked, "What do you call it?" ”
The old woman bowed her head and said, "The old slave's surname is Teng." ”
Yang Mu said: "Steward Teng, is your deed of sale still in the Cao family?" ”
Why did the nobles sign the deed of sale? That is, life and death must be pinched in the hands of the master, and what is prevented is the rebellion of the slave.
Since this steward Teng has achieved the position of the first person next to the master's mother, why did he betray the mastermother and block his own life?
She couldn't understand this matter, and she couldn't feel at ease.
Steward Teng raised his eyes slightly, glanced at Yang Mu, who was expressionless, and nodded: "The old slave knows." ”
After a pause, Steward Teng continued: "The old slave also knows that the princess has concerns, and she is afraid that what the old slave said is not true. If the princess understands why the old slave sells her master for glory, she can believe the old slave. ”
Yang Mu put his hands behind his back, looked at Steward Teng, and asked, "Why?" ”
Steward Teng spoke slowly, and said leisurely: "Because of the Cao family's husband and wife, I killed my only daughter!" ”
More than 20 years ago, Steward Teng was sold by his gambling father to a flower and wood merchant, and three years later gave birth to a daughter.
Her husband disliked her and couldn't give birth to a boy, so he sold her to Renyazi, and then transferred to the Cao family and became the maid of the housemother.
At that time, Lord Cao was still a son-in-law, and Mrs. Cao's Fang ran a pharmacy and medical hall.
Later, the Cao family became an official, and Lord Cao took advantage of his daughter's big tree to set the princess, and rose all the way, and his mind was also lively, and he accepted concubines from room to room.
It's just that every concubine has a tragic ending.
Steward Teng, who was serving Mrs. Cao closely, could naturally guess the reason.
Three years ago, Mrs. Cao sent Steward Teng out on errands, and only returned home after a full year. When she returned home, there had just happened in the mansion where the concubine had one corpse and two lives.
Mrs. Cao ordered her to clean up the aftermath.
When she instructed her subordinates to wash the concubine's body, she saw the red birthmark on the concubine's back - a four-petal plum blossom.
Steward Teng's blood was cold, and the corpse in front of him was the daughter she hadn't seen for many years and was sold by her husband to the opera garden!
After inquiry, I learned that this concubine was a drama and was bought back by Lord Cao eight months ago.
Not long after the concubine entered the house, she became pregnant, and this morning she somehow rolled down the stairs and died in one body.
The grief-stricken Steward Teng didn't know that it was Mrs. Cao who made another move!
Steward Teng finished the matter roughly and said: "Princess, the old slave is soft-spoken, and he can't fight Mrs. Cao, let alone the Cao family, so he can only honor the princess to take revenge!" ”
Yang Mu looked at Steward Teng and asked, "Since it was Mrs. Cao who killed so many concubines and children of Lord Cao, why didn't Steward Teng report this matter to Lord Cao?" ”
Steward Teng had a sneer on his face, and said, "Princess, after so many years, how many lives have disappeared in the Cao family, how could Lord Cao not know that it was Mrs. Cao's means?" But Lord Cao was afraid of the princess, and he didn't dare to make a big deal about it, let alone do anything to Mrs. Cao. Lord Cao doesn't even dare to treasure the outer room and illegitimate children, he is just a brute! ”
She raised her eyes, looked at Yang Mu, and said, "Lord Cao knows that Mrs. Cao is jealous, and every concubine and every child can't live, but he still keeps taking concubines and making those concubines pregnant!" He didn't even dare to take back Mrs. Cao's right to manage the feed!
"After so many years, naturally there are concubines who can understand that as long as they are pregnant, they will definitely not die well. Some people secretly drink birth control pills and don't want to get pregnant. But Lord Cao will openly send fetal pills, and Mrs. Cao will also secretly replace the contraceptive pills with fetal pills! Just wait for the concubine to get pregnant, and then die tragically in the house!
"Both of them are crazy! It's a brute! It's a demon! ”
Steward Teng's words behind him really shocked Yang Mu.
Mrs. Cao's viciousness had exceeded Yang Mu's expectations, and Lord Cao's behavior was also shocking.
Since Yang Mu entered the door, Steward Teng, who had been plain, said this, and suddenly knelt on the ground with both bottoms and kowtowed heavily.
"Princess! As long as I can avenge my poor child, I ...... It's not a pity for me to die! ”
Yang Mu listened to the voice of hatred at his feet, slowly exhaled a breath, and said, "Steward Teng is down to business, whether you can avenge your daughter depends on what secrets you can tell." (End of chapter)
