Chapter 62 - Wealthy Trading
Xue Runcong was escorted to Xu Yibo by the black crow in a daze, and saw Liu Ya pull off the hairpin on his bun and hand it to Xu Yibo, "Killing people is used to filling your life, if he hurts your leg, you will also hurt his leg!"
"Liu Ya, are you crazy? I'm your cousin!!"
"Just because you are my cousin, your mother has no time to teach you what is polite, righteous and honest, so I have to let my cousin do it for you. Liu Ya glanced at him coldly, and then sent the hairpin in his hand forward.
After Xu Yibo was surprised, he took the hairpin triumphantly in Xue Runcong's black-faced jumping feet, and saw that although his cousin and King Qing were unexpected, they didn't mean to stop it, he smiled and looked at Xue Runcong, who couldn't break free from the crow's clamp at all, and said, "When you pierced Young Master Ben's leg, weren't you quite mighty and brave?
"You're fooling meβ"
"Shut up!" Liu Ya gestured with a look, and the black crow clearly stuffed a handkerchief into Xue Runcong's mouth, blocking his words.
Her cold and strong and unmistakable breath is like the bright moon high in the night, Xu Yibo knew that she was not joking, grabbed the hairpin and slammed it into Xue Runcong's thigh, but she paused when she was about to touch Xue Runcong's thigh.
Xue Runcong's face was already miserable, seeing that the imaginary pain did not come, Xu Yibo withdrew his hand again, almost weak, if it weren't for the black crow's clamping, I am afraid that he would have fallen to the ground in shame.
"For your own sake, you don't deserve to do it from Young Master Ben-"
"I don't want Xu Bashao to spare him in my face and connive at him in disguise to make such a mistake next time. Liu Ya grabbed Xu Yibo's hand that was about to be withdrawn, and inserted it into Xue Runcong's thigh who had just relaxed, and shook out of Xue Runcong's mouth that was plugged by a handkerchief, and Xu Yibo, who was unexpected, was stunned and withdrew his hand with a hairpin, Xue Runcong's whole body swayed like a sieve, and his eyes rolled and fainted!
The black crow neatly ripped off Xue Runcong's own belt, tied up the wound, stuffed him with a pill, and carried him away.
Liu Ya took out three thousand taels of silver and gave it to the old bustard, "One is the compensation for the smashing, and the other is not to let the goods just now step into here half a step." Seeing that the old bustard trembled and took it, she turned her head to King Qing and said, "In this way, Liu Ya will thank you for sparing my cousin." β
They all noticed that Liu Ya's face was paler again, as if the previous gloom was not caused by being extremely angry, but she looked like nothing had happened, and she still walked out of the courtyard with a smile, a word and a deed, but unfortunately no matter how strong she was, she couldn't stand the dissatisfaction of her body after all, and suddenly fell over-
"Bud Bud!" Jiang Zhiyu, who was closest to her, wanted to support her, but a touch of light purple jumped out of nowhere, caught Liu Ya safely and picked her up, and the sweat that densely spread all over her forehead condensed into beads and sank into her hairline uneasily.
"She has been tired of looking for information for the case of Six Doors recently, and she has not had a good rest for many days, Liufu is noisy now, I will take her to Six Doors to rest temporarily, Jiang Shao should find another doctor to treat Xue Runcong. Yuwen Qiuye said that he was leaving.
"I see the princess's current situation, it's not appropriate to go to the six doors again, right?" King Qing grabbed Yuwen Qiuye's arm in an instant and said, "Since she is tired of looking for information for the case of the six doors, she is afraid that she will still not be able to rest well when she arrives at the six doors, Mrs. Jiang has always loved her, why not hand her over to Jiang Shao to take back, and the misunderstanding that arose in Peach Blossom Lake has not yet been resolved, and she doesn't want to see you as soon as she opens her eyes." β
"Why does King Qing think she doesn't want to see me as soon as she opens her eyes?" Yuwen Qiuye met his gaze in a moment's time.
Four (sword) eyes (pull) phase (crossbow) pair (zhang).
"It's only been half an afternoon, and King Ye himself has done something that made her unhappy, but have you forgotten it clearly?" King Qing said.
Jiang Zhiyu didn't care how sharp the sparks were between them, he only looked nervously at Liu Ya's increasingly pale face and frowned, and grabbed the person into his arms and said, "Thank you for the two princes' love for your sister, no matter how talented you are, you can still afford to take care of your sister, so you won't worry about the two princes!"
Yuwen Qiuye didn't stop him, but just looked at King Qing, who had always been indifferent, with interest, "King Qing, hasn't you forgotten that you have already decided on your family, this marriage between the Western Desert and the Southern Han Dynasty is destined not to be your turn-"
"You don't need to blame you for the king's business. King Qing calmly withdrew his hand and snorted softly.
"I don't mean to point fingers at King Qing's affairs, but I also want to remind you that the misunderstanding between me and her will be resolved sooner or later, but you shouldn't have forgotten what you did to her, right? β
Glancing at the Yuwen Qiu page that left after the provocation, Xu Congyao swept over King Qing, who looked like he had walked around the cold pool, hid the fun on his lips, and instructed the little servant to invite the sedan chair to carry Xu Yibo, who couldn't go, and turned his head to the old bustard who was still holding the silver ticket given by Liu Ya and smiled and said, "To add, the hush money is also included in it." β
"Yes, yes, the old slave understands. The old bustard hurriedly nodded in fear.
**
When Liu Ya opened her eyes, she happened to meet a pair of eyes that were close at hand, and she woke up, and the owner of the eyes grinned and said, "I just wanted to count how many eyelashes you have, and you woke up." β
"......" Liu Ya sat up with her hand in embarrassment, "Why does Zhihua count how many eyelashes I have?"
"There's no why, I don't like to read like you, I have nothing to do to sit next to you, so as to pass the time, you sleep for a day. Jiang Zhihua instructed the maid to tell her mother Liu Ya to wake up, and called the maid to pour water and feed Liu Ya to drink, and then the maid brought the bird's nest chicken porridge that had been warm, "The imperial doctor has been here, and I also know that you have been assertive since you were a child, but you can't burn your body out!"
"It's not that I want to get up, it's just that things like to happen together, and the imperial doctor must just say that I'm tired, right?"
"But Yaya, aren't we now in the age of playing and making trouble at will? What are you worried about the Xue family's mud that can't support the wall? His problems are all connived at by his mother, and you are not the ancestor of his Xue family, and if you ask him to sit in prison for a year and a half, I think there will be no problems!"
"If this is the case, I am afraid that as soon as I step out of the house, the crowd is spitting for the weak, and I will drown in it. β
"Whoever dares to spit on you, I will smash eggs into that person's eyes, such blind eyes, don't put them out as decorations!"
Liu Ya was amused by her, and saw Aunt Jiang coming, followed by a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl, and the maid next to her was carrying a tray with a cup of things and a spoon.
"This child is Caini, the daughter of the grandmother in the house, knowing that you are not feeling well and temporarily housed here, she specially boiled a moist sweet soup for you as a gift in return for the last gift, and you can taste her good craftsmanship after eating porridge. After Aunt Jiang finished the introduction, she motioned to the maid to put the tray on the coffee table next to the bed, and blamed and distressed Liu Ya:
"Even if your uncle is busy all day, he may not be like you, no matter how capable you are at a young age, you can't such a big heart!
He handed a delicate wooden box the size of two palms to the bed.
Liu Ya was really embarrassed, "How can I ask my uncle to do such an embarrassing thing for me?"
"Isn't it just a matter of playing a few more games of chess with Grandpa Lu? You don't need to have any burden! Besides, the Duke of Lu Guofu should also give you a favor. Jiang Zhihua covered his mouth and smiled, "I also heard from them yesterday that you, a princess, can be a doctor, have money in your family, and are very capable, as if you don't need anything, but you don't know how to start if you want to please me, and you still ask me what you like! β
Lu Guogong's Mansion is He Guifei's maiden family, Jiang Zhixue married He Guifei's Jin King, Shilang's Mansion and their family have always been close, the two mansions have long had the idea of marriage, and it is natural to sell it back and forth is an old friendship, after all, a thousand years of ginseng is a tribute that only comes once in a hundred years, that is, the lady in the palace is not rewarded, not to mention an ordinary noble family, so it is indeed not easy to please her, the fragrant princess.
However, when Liu Ya returned home, she found that her home had still become a small half of the rare medicinal herbs, even though Yuzhu had rejected a lot of gifts from the mansion that she had not had any contact with, when she flipped through the gift list, she was still surprised by the thick stack of gift lists, and roughly swept the three thousand-year-old ginseng given by Emperor Jiayi, twenty superb pearls the size of pigeon eggs, and super good deer antler velvet and Ganoderma lucidum.
There are all kinds of ginseng and snow lotus sent by Huimingtang and some high-grade medicinal materials that are extremely nourishing and nourishing the body, and there are many things sent by the Shangshu Mansion of the Criminal Department (Zhang Yingying), the Shilang Mansion of the Military Department (Ji Huansheng), the Mansion of Guiyi Bo (Ming Gengxiu), the Mansion of the Marquis of Chongyi (Hu Qingqing's mother), the Mansion of Xinyi Bo (Mrs. Xinyibo), the Mansion of Yongguo (Xu Yibo), the Mansion of King Jin (Jiang Zhixue), the Mansion of King Qing, the Mansion of King Jie and so on.
The mansions sent it in various names, and the most surprising thing for Liu Ya was Xu Yibo from the Yongguo Mansion, she really didn't understand why he, who was injured by Xue Runcong's leg, would give her a gift, although it was only a thousand-year-old ginseng, but she also felt very weird (she never thought that she was a renminbi that attracted people everywhere she went).
"I didn't expect such a thing before, I forgot to remind you that if someone sends something and returns it, just accept it first!" Now she will return in person, but she will make a big fuss, and she deliberately doesn't know what to do, Liu Ya marked out the gifts sent by Emperor Jiayi and Huimingtang and Ming Gengxiu and Hu Mingming, his mother, Jiang Zhixue and Xinyi Bofu, "The ones sent by other mansions can't be used." β
At this time, Liu Sigu, who could hear the movement of her coming back, came, and a pair of eyes swept over the boxes of precious medicinal materials, and it was difficult to hide the greed and said, "Ya Ya, you also know that Cong'er has a leg injury, so you can give him some to recuperate at will! He always has a bad leg ache and can't sleep well at night, I look at the pigeon's egg-sized pearl ground into foam to drink it is excellent, that hundred years He Shou Wu Yi essence blood and strong muscles and bones are the most suitable for him, Xiu'er has always coughed and phlegm recently, this superb blood swallow will definitely only be good in two or three days after eating!"
Mo Kaichan, Mo Qiutong and Fei Teng, who were sitting in the pavilion, rolled their eyes together, they had never seen such a shameless one, they just happened to come to visit Liu Ya's right prime minister, General Feixiang and Ji Yushi, and they all expressed spicy eyes when they heard this, and they didn't know what bad luck Liu Ya had in her previous life, and she had such a relative in this life.
Liu Ya already knew what Liu Sigu's temperament was, and she picked some for her when she saw it, "Fourth Aunt is going to take a good look at Xue Runcong, this time she only hurt her leg, but next time she may be gone, and then I can only help Fourth Aunt dredge the jailer and ask you to visit him through Tielan Mountain." β
"Don't worry, I will tell him never to come nonsense in the future!" Liu Sigu, who had got good things, nodded again and again.
When she left satisfied, Mo Qiutong pouted, "Dare to love her to take a special trip, just to take advantage of it?" I didn't ask my sister how your body is doing!"
"Yes, Princess Mo Xie wants to summon the medical girl who lives in the post station to serve?" When she first set off, because Liu Ya was good at medicine, she refused to go with the old lady, but there were still six medical women in the team who were waiting to be sent, and the right prime minister asked.
Liu Ya used to call the doctors and girls to live in the post station, because she was afraid that the guards who stayed at the post station would get sick after being tired of running around and relaxing, but now she thought that it would be good to bring two back, so she said, "Then call Miao Yu and Hongye over." "She had seen the kung fu of these six medical women, and these two girls were the best at poisoning.
You Cheng replied, "We have been in the Southern Han Dynasty for a while, I wonder if the minister can take advantage of the time to go out to visit relatives?"
General Fei Xiang and Ji Yushi are both martial arts, on weekdays Liu Ya they go out are in a state of secret protection, so he has to stay in the mansion or wait for them to come back to report what happened during the trip, or stay in the mansion to eat, drink and sleep, and only when he is interested, he has not been asked by Liu Ya to go out together, so he has not been out of the door, he himself has always been a good old pedantic, although he had a little unpleasantness with Liu Ya when he was in the West Desert before, but Liu Ya has always been a generous, a few months of getting along, he has long forgotten the unpleasantness of the ideaγ
"Of course you can, and you are a courtier and not a guard, you just go out when you want to go out, you don't need to report so much, and explain a word or two to the attendants who are waiting in the courtyard, so as not to worry us. β
Liu Ya had already known from the mouth of the King of the West Desert that the right prime minister and the Qiyi Marquis Mansion in Shangjing were relatives, although Mrs. Qiyi Marquis was only a distant cousin of the right prime minister's wife, but they lived together for a few years when they were young, so even if the relationship between the two provinces was separated from the country, it was still maintained well.
**
At dinner, Ming Gengxiu came, and Fei Teng took the opportunity to express his intentions.
Fei Teng was originally an unfettered man in the rivers and lakes, but he just wanted to protect her for the favor of returning Jiang Zhiyu, Liu Ya knew the truth that there was a time when he would gather and disperse, and he didn't feel any sentimentality, so he only smiled: "Do you plan to go anywhere?"
"Dong Chu. Fei Teng took a sip of his wine.
Liu Ya put down her chopsticks, took off the necklace around her neck that was woven with a red rope and strung with a black glass bead and handed it to him, "Our family's business has developed quite well in Dongchu in recent years, if you are in trouble, take it to our business, and when you see it, any shop will try its best to help you." β
Fei Teng hesitated for a moment, but finally took it, "Thank you." β
Liu Ya smiled, "Why do you and I have to say thank you." β
"But, why are you going to Dongchu for no reason?" Mo Qiutong asked, pulling the rice.
"I had this itinerary for a long time, but before leaving, I was borrowed by Zhiyu to go, so I came to Beijing to catch up with the old days and then left. β
Mo Qiutong said, "And then, what are you doing in Dongchu?"
"Find someone who is important to me. Fei Teng pressed the bitterness from his lips with wine.
Liu Ya saw it keenly, "Do you need me to ask my brother for help?"
Fei Teng shook his head and said, "Zhiyu has already helped, and it has been confirmed by many parties that she is dead, but I don't want to believe it." β
"It's the woman you likeβ" Mo Qiutong asked tentatively.
He laughed, "It's my sister." β
"In this way, I wish you one day that your obsession will be successful, and your wishes will have an echo-" Liu Ya poured wine and toasted.
Fei Teng solemnly put the full wine glass to meet the wine glass that Mo Qiutong and they also raised, and in the crisp and crisp sound of the white porcelain, the sentence 'thank you' that was about to reach his mouth finally became heroic: "-Okay! Don't get drunk tonight!"
I don't know how long the laughter and laughter have been, Mo Qiutong drunkenly lay on the table, looking at the clear and bright moon in the night sky outside the pavilion, "If the Southern Han looks up, he will feel that the sky is so far away from him, but if he looks up in the West Desert, he always feels that the moon and stars, the clouds and mist are all within reach, why is this?"
"Because of the high position of Jinfu City and the visual deviation caused by the different terrain, the sky is always the same sky. Liu Ya looked at Mo Qiutong who was blushing and suddenly grinning stupidly, and listened to her drowsy muttering some inconsequential words, afraid that she would catch a cold, so she called a maid to help her back to the room to rest.
Ming Gengxiu and Mo Kaichan were talking about what they encountered when they were in the Western Desert, and asked him if he would be interested in hunting with his friends in a few days, seeing that the two of them were chatting happily, Liu Ya turned his head to look at Fei Teng, who was sitting next to the pillar, and said:
"Tell me about your sister?"
"You, it's because of this thoughtfulness that you make yourself feel bad, and if you go on like this, you'll really burn your body, my sister has been my obsession for many years, and you don't have to bear anything. β
"I'm also a doctor, I'm still sure of my body, you tried your best to protect me, but I don't even know what you're thinking, I don't care if I can help for the time being, I just want to know that I'm about to travel far away, I don't know when I can see my friend again. β
Fei Teng couldn't help laughing, and even drank a few sips of wine before he said slowly, "When I was ten years old and my sister was four years old, there was a disaster at home, and my parents were infected with the plague and died.
Even within a radius of 100 miles, I searched again, and then met the master who was also looking for a lost daughter, he adopted me, together to find the most important relatives for us, the master taught me martial arts to read and write, so looking for several years, in a poor villagers asked to suppress bandits, encountered the joy of being ordered to lead the army to suppress bandits, we talked with him who had traveled all over many rivers, and after learning about our persistence year after month and month, he took the initiative to help.
I don't know how much he owes with his identity, after two years of work, he finally found the daughter of the master who was sold to the Qinglou, I now want to call her a senior sister, the senior sister looks like her mother, she is very smart, and I don't know how much she suffered, she became the proprietress of a green building, and adopted a lot of lonely girls, although the master did not recognize her, but with the help of Zhiyu, she opened a teahouse opposite the Qinglou, and guarded the senior sister like this.
I also thought that if I found my sister and she was doing well, I would do the same, but what I was waiting for was the news that she had died. He poured all the remaining wine in the pot into his throat before he continued, "In order to confirm the death, the person I had with me searched again, but it took three years to get the news that it was still the same, after my sister left home, she was adopted by a family who came to Qingcheng from Dongchu to do business, and when I heard that I picked up my sister, she was injured and had no memory, they had no children, and they regarded my sister as if they were their own."
But later business failed, the sister's adoptive father lost his fighting spirit and drank all day long, and beat his wife and scolded his daughter, as the younger sister grew up, the sister's adoptive father crooked his mind to sell his sister, one night, drunk he tried to force his sister, it was the sister's adoptive mother who desperately saved her, since then the trace of the sister disappeared in Qingcheng, we spent a lot of effort to find out when she first arrived in Yangzhou, saved a pregnant woman, listened to the tea stall owner who was quite impressed by them, the sister sent the pregnant woman home.
It's just that no one expected that the pregnant woman was actually a human trafficker, and she stuned her sister and sold her sister to a noble family, do you think she was a slave and a maid?" he said this, gritting his teeth a little, "It is a gift from the first night of the girl, a transaction of power and wealth."
The girls were trapped in the cage like beasts, and were allowed to be chosen by the obsessed guests to accompany them for the night, most of them were tossed to death, and some escaped and were beaten to death, and if they were not served well, they would be thrown into the snake cave to teach them, and after seeing those scenes, no weak girl dared to resist, but my sister may be like her adoptive mother, and she was desperate and unwilling to be humiliated, and she also dragged the boss who named her to be buried in the raging fire, and the fire was urgent and fierce, implicating several wings next door, and only the people in the most marginal wing room escapedγ
The reason for this situation is that each side room is lit with aphrodisiac incense, and when I find that I want to escape when I go to the water, I can't escape. β
Liu Ya shuddered when she heard this, and even Ming Gengxiu and Mo Kaichan didn't know when they quieted down.
