Chapter 293: The Hu Clan's Plan
"The concubine was originally an orphan, I don't remember where my home is, when I begged, I had to be sheltered by my adoptive mother, and my adoptive mother taught her sword dance skills, and she made a living by selling art outside, and then her adoptive mother fell ill and returned to the capital.
Regarding what happened to the Hu family, He Ye only heard her reprimand the word "lewd thief" earlier, and speculated that it was seven, seven, eighty, eight, eight, and eight, in a place like Kyoto, where nobles gathered, bullying men and women is really not news, He Ye was impatient to "act chivalrous and righteous", and he was not curious about what happened to Hu, the reason why he followed up to listen, but what he was curious about was another thing - I don't know what the intersection of Liu Shi Niang's elf and weird girl and this woman is, King Jin didn't believe that Shi Niang was really just because of sympathy, so he asked himself to help.
However, he heard the Hu family's frank identity at this time, but it was not like Liu Shiniang's old acquaintance, just because He Ye couldn't remember what the origin of the British Duke Xu Han who was quite jealous in Hu's mouth was, and he thought that it was not a monstrous power, and Jing Zhaoliu could not be compared.
"English duke?" Yang Knockyu suddenly realized after hearing the name of the "lewd thief": "Hu Niang is here today because she saw me in the Guogong Mansion?" ”
"Exactly." Hu Niang bowed her head, and looked at the jade with a very respectful gaze: "Two years ago, Xu Han had a birthday, and he invited the lady to come to the house to help the fun, and the concubine was also serving at the banquet at that time, and she witnessed it with her own eyes...... Xu Han because he took a fancy to go with the jade lady and proposed to buy it as a housekeeper, the trick was shocked, obviously unwilling to submit, knock the jade lady in a few words, and taught Xu Han that the lewd thief dispelled his mind, the concubine was already like ashes at that time, and only because of the adoptive mother did he endure the adulterous thief to play, it was the jade lady who defended the trick righteously, so she taught the concubine to live in body and mind, and now my adoptive mother has passed away, I am alone and no longer have to worry, even if I risk my life, I am not willing to commit to the old lewd thief again. ”
Among the many prostitutes in Pingkangfang, Yang Tingyu is indeed because of righteousness, and has the reputation of "Fengchen Heroine", although it is praised by prostitutes in private, but many regular customers have also heard of Knocking Jade knowing pity for the poor and weak, which makes many scholars love the Geng and righteousness of the Jade Lady more and more, and many children of the family are quite protective of her, so it has also caused such as the British Duke to be considered a monstrous dignitary, how much will have scruples, and dare not show off the prestige of the bullying in the Jade Knocking family.
But Knock Yu is self-aware, and there are some things that she can't solve when she comes forward, such as what happened to Hu Niang in front of her, it is not Knock Yu and a prostitute can help.
She sighed and said: "Hu Niang doesn't know, the reason why the British Duke will keep me a little thin noodles is just because I have many frequent customers from a prominent background, and I declined the British Duke that day, and because the trick belongs to the Geisha, and the British Duke occupies it as a family trick It is against the law, and Hu Niang...... Even though I was forced to be helpless at the beginning, but I was already a concubine of the British princess, if the British princess came to the door, it was also reasonable, I was just a dusty woman, I was afraid that I would not be able to protect Hu Niang. ”
"Although the concubine came to ask for shelter, she didn't want to burden the lady, and naturally she knew that with the power of the adulterer, of course she would not give up." Hu Niang also seemed to think that knocking jade would have some scruples, and then said quite anxiously: "It was just in the past, but now is the right time, the second son of the adulterous thief has just been on the high school gold list, and according to the concubine, Xu Erlang is not as greedy for pleasure as his father and brother, but has great ambitions, he has studied hard for many years, and it is easy to be admitted to the Jinshi, it is the time when the spring breeze is proud, if there is a scandal in the family, will it not be beneficial to the future career?" ”
These words made Knock Yu, who was originally frowning and embarrassed, think about it.
"Xu Erlang was originally doted on by his grandmother and Mrs. Xiao, and he could be said to be responsive at home, if the lady knocked on the jade to come forward and send someone to inform Xu Erlang, if Xu Han persecuted, the concubine was not afraid to expose the old prostitute bullying in public, and swore in public, she would rather live in a prostitute than submit to Xu Han, Xu Erlang has just the momentum, but is she willing to be ridiculed by the world because of Xu Han? As long as Xu Erlang compromises, he will move his elders and Mrs. Xiao to persuade Xu Han and let the concubine go free. Although Xu Han was arrogant and not afraid of ridicule, Xu Xiuneng refused to be ashamed of his father when he was proud of the spring breeze.
Although there were still some concerns in her heart, when she saw Hu Niang's pleading and pleading eyes, she couldn't say anything if she refused, she pondered for a long time, and asked: "Hu Niang is said to be lonely and helpless, but have you ever thought that even if the British Duke temporarily lets it go, I am afraid that I will keep an eye on it in the future, even if Hu Niang is far away from Kyoto, I am afraid that I will not be able to get rid of the British public calculation." ”
"As long as Xu Han issues a knot, the concubine would rather be naturalized in the workshop, and the concubine has sword dancing skills, and will never drag down the jade lady to raise food and clothing, even if Xu Han is arrogant, he must not dare to forcibly occupy the geisha in the workshop."
"Hu Niang really plans to commit to the dust prostitute?" Knock Yu was surprised, and then smiled bitterly: "Hu Niang knows that once she becomes a prostitute, she will no longer have freedom at all...... At that time, I will have very limited protection for you, and I am afraid that I will not let you do things against your will. ”
Hu was very resolute: "Compared with the British government, I can't bear the endless play and humiliation, I am in a prostitute, I can make a living by skill, the lady does not need to worry, the concubine body has long been thought clearly, and the future will not affect the lady, the concubine body is not perfect, and she is not afraid of being persecuted, she just wants to no longer be trapped in the forbidden garden, as long as there is still a little freedom, it is enough." ”
At this point, He Ye, who had been sitting on the wall and watching, had a change in his opinion of Hu Niang - it turned out that at first he thought that Hu took the opportunity to choose a sword weapon to escape, and came to a prostitute to seek refuge was really whimsical "brave and unstrategic", until he heard that Hu intended to use reputation as a threat to contain the British public concessions, he realized that Hu was not without a plan, and finally heard that Hu even planned a way out, and was willing to commit himself to the dust rather than be controlled by others, King Jin sincerely sighed that Hu was arrogant.
Although the Goolan prostitute is not clean, the Hu family does have no other way out, only for the tenacious struggle of "a little freedom", and even the hard-hearted King Jin has a little pity and sympathy.
"Since Hu Niang's mind has been decided, I will try my best to help, and I will send someone to inform Xu Erlang."
When Yang knocked on the jade and agreed to help the Hu family, even He Ye couldn't help but praise: "The lady who knocked on the jade is really righteous, and she deserves the praise of the hero of the fat powder." ”
"In the past few days, Xu Erlang has been busy celebrating with many people in the same year because of the title of the gold list, so he should be in Pingkangfang." Although Hu Shi was also grateful, he was also worried that Xu Han would hear the news and make it known to everyone regardless of the trouble, so she would no longer have a handle in her hand to threaten, so she hurriedly reminded Knock Yu.
"As long as Xu Erlang is in Pingkangfang, he will be able to find out whose house he is in in less than a moment." Knocking Yu was confident, and patted the back of Hu's hand as comfort: "Don't worry, even if the British Duke is ahead and the King of Jin is here, presumably the British Duke will not dare to make trouble unreasonably." ”
After speaking, he turned his smile and looked at He Ye: "The king is also a righteous person, otherwise he would not have come to the aid of Hu Niang today and sent her to the concubine's residence." ”
Save people to the end, send the Buddha to the west, since He Ye has waded into troubled waters from the beginning, he doesn't mind being used by the jade lady "Fox Fake Tiger Power" again, and he also intends to stay and watch the situation, and then he can explain to Liu Shiniang and implement the favor she owes.
Seeing the notoriously violent King Jin touching his chin and smiling, Knock Yu's heart was completely relaxed, and he also gave Hu a reassuring stone at the moment: "Since the king promised to help by the side, today's matter, the British Duke is unwilling to compromise and has to compromise, Hu Niang stayed in this room, waiting to hear the good news." ”
Explain to the servants at the moment, and immediately go to the workshop to inquire, where Xu Erlang and Xu Xiu can have a banquet, and they will definitely invite people to knock on the jade house.
It's just that Jiang Yuan on the side, after hearing that the master was willing to be used, his mind moved, and he secretly paid attention to the Hu family, and the corner of his lips pulled up a smile of "old comfort".
