Canghedian is the only state capital in the Great Song Kingdom that does not have city defenses.

Therefore, many people are accustomed to calling Canghedian "city", but it is not very rigorous. Probably because of the dense houses, noisy streets and many ornate buildings, it makes people feel like they are "in the city".

Such prosperity is said to be all due to the former prefect Yao Cong. At that time, he relied on his own strength to build a piece of rural land that was originally full of meadow farmland into Canghedian, which was regarded as a prosperous city by people, and even replaced the status of the original Guang'an Mansion.

Su Yi was wandering on the street at this time, appreciating the customs and customs of this place, and finally being able to appreciate Yao Cong's talent.

Looking at the endless caravans, the carriages carrying goods are one after another, and there are many vendors. I have to admit that not fortifying the city is indeed a clever trick. Not only did it attract a large number of merchants, but it also saved a lot of money for the construction of the city wall.

Such a strategy is simple, but not many people dare to use it. There is no other reason, there is no city defense, it is difficult to defend against the enemy outside, and it is difficult to cure thieves inside, and no prefect dares to guarantee the safety of the place under his rule under this situation.

But Yao Cong just did that.

Maybe that's why he was able to be promoted to Chaotian Pavilion Division, Su Yi said in his heart.

At this time, Song Qiuyun also walked with him, but he had no intention of appreciating the customs of Canghedian, and he looked like he was not giving up. She wanted to stay in the inn and spend the day quietly, but she was persuaded by Su Yihao's bad words, which was called "relaxing".

Su Yi's mood seemed to be quite relaxed, looking around and full of curiosity, but Song Qiuyun herself still couldn't calm down. As soon as he thought that Song Haoyu was in a certain mansion in this city, he couldn't help but think about it.

"Elder Song, look at this. Su Yi held a strange-looking hairpin in his hand and said.

There is no doubt that the thing is indeed a hairpin, but the shape is that of a windmill. However, it is a strange thing to say that it is a windmill, and there is a waterwheel hanging on it, and it turns and rattles.

"I don't know who would buy such a weird-looking thing..."Su Yi said as he fiddled with the water wheel, "Elder Song, come, I'll put it on for you." ”

Song Qiuyun was absent-minded, but when she saw that Su Yi was going to insert the ugly hairpin on her head, her instinctive resistance made her recover a little, and she hurriedly took the hairpin, but did not let Su Yi succeed.

"Aren't you going to buy it..."Song Qiuyun also turned the water wheel and said.

"This waterwheel hairpin actually has an allusion, don't look at its strange appearance, but it is very easy to sell. Su Yi explained, "It is said that this land was originally all farmland, and then it was slowly converted into a street market when it developed. But the people still remembered the days of farming in the past, and they were so happy that they got such a thing. I thought that no one would buy it, but I didn't expect that after the things were put out, they were very popular, and even became a major feature of Canghedian. ”

Although Canghedian has become prosperous, it still retains the original simple folk customs, which is really commendable. This is also the reason why Su Yi is willing to wander around this street market slowly, just chatting with the small boss of the street vendor, you can feel the most simple happiness.

This hairpin was still given away by the little boss when he saw that Su Yi was a foreigner, and he chatted happily for nothing.

"How do you know so much?" Song Qiuyun said curiously.

"I just heard what the little boss who sells hairpins said. ”

Song Qiuyun lost her mind slightly, and her heart turned out that she had been wandering outside the world all along, and even Su Yi talked to people and did something, she didn't know at all.

Su Yi sighed and said, "I said Elder Song, your state is very inappropriate. Tomorrow is the date of the 'delivery', but don't go wrong at the last minute. The way you look, I'm sorry for the title of 'Elder', and it's even more insulting to your unintentional skills. ”

Song Qiuyun finally took a deep breath and said, "You're right, I don't deserve the title of elder, and when I return to the Goddess Palace, I will immediately ask the palace master for my resignation." ”

Su Yi was a little stunned, he never expected it to be overkill.

saw Song Qiuyun suddenly smile and said, "I'm playing with you." ”

Seeing that she could joke, Su Yi breathed a sigh of relief, then took her silky hand and said, "Madam, be happy, we will be able to see our children tomorrow." ”

"Are you taking advantage of me?" Song Qiuyun glared at him and said angrily. His hand was held by Su Yi, and he was grateful to him for finding a way to divert his attention for himself.

Su Yi didn't feel the slightest unnaturalness, learned the voice of the middle-aged man to speak, and said rudely: "Naturally, I want to practice, and please cooperate with Mrs." ”

Song Qiuyun smiled: "Cooperate with it." ”

As she spoke, she took Su Yi's arm with her other hand and snuggled up to him. The two of them got too close, and their steps slowed down, but they really looked like a loving couple.

"Xianggong, Xiaoxiao's matter is really solved?"

"If Xiaoxiao hadn't really done murder and arson, it should have been solved. Su Yi replied.

"How powerful are you?"

"What are you talking about..."

"The concubine is just a casual question, don't take it to heart. ”

Song Qiuyun switched back and forth between the two identities so easily, which made Su Yi feel uncomfortable.

He thought about it, but still replied: "It's not that I have the ability, it's that Master Cheng has the ability." ”

"You have so much ability to convince Master Cheng?" Song Qiuyun blurted out.

"Madame is so naughty, but for the husband... I have punished you. ”

The joke stopped, and Song Qiuyun said with a straight face: "What's the next plan?"

Su Yi thought for a while and said, "Xiaoxiao's matter is settled. When tomorrow and the people with the Changle semicolon take over, you can go and meet your other little niece. ”

"Could there be any accidents?" Song Qiuyun said worriedly, "The three of them... After all, you have heard about Xiaoyu's thoughts, and she may not want to see us again. And the buyer is also in big trouble, will he agree to let us see Xiaoyu? What if the three of them collide with the master's house and cause trouble?"

When it came to Song Haoyu, she became restless again, the Song sisters were really her lifelong bruises.

Su Yi shook her hand and persuaded, "Elder Song, you have to believe us young people..."

Speaking of this, Su Yi felt Song Qiuyun's murderous gaze, and immediately reacted that he was distinguishing her from the young man, which made her unhappy, so he hurriedly changed his words: "Qiuyun... I said Qiu Yun, you have to believe that with the ability of the three of them, they can get things done. Speaking of the buyer, you must know that you are the victims, and there is no reason for the victims to think for the criminals. Besides, you didn't have the intention of forcibly taking people away this time, and I think he should be able to see the stakes clearly. If you forcibly prevent you from seeing Xiao Yu, I'm afraid that what awaits him will let him know what flesh pain is, even if it is not a prison sentence. ”

In the end, Su Yi's tone became gloomy, and he had already made up his mind, if the buyer was not honest, he would use some means to get him to cooperate obediently.

Song Qiuyun finally stopped being entangled, and asked again, "Then what's next?"

"Next, find the two sisters, your mission for this trip is completed, right? Isn't it time to go back to the Goddess Palace? ”

"Is this going to be separated?" Song Qiuyun's expression became a little gloomy.

Suddenly mentioning this question, Su Yi also felt slightly sad, and then smiled again: "Elder Song is reluctant to me?"

Song Qiuyun sighed and said, "Don't say it, it's really a little reluctant." ”

She suddenly became serious, but Su Yi didn't know how to answer, and was speechless for a while.

At this time, the two were still close to each other, and the hand they were holding never let go. Song Qiuyun leaned her head on his shoulder again, and said seriously: "Thanks to you for this time, thank you." ”

"It's... Elder Song is polite..."Su Yi said hesitantly, "The token you gave me last time is enough to repay this favor..."

Song Qiuyun suddenly said: "In the future, call me Qiuyun." ”

"What?"

"If you don't hear it, forget it. ”

Song Qiuyun didn't repeat it, Su Yi didn't ask any more, the two suddenly fell silent, and just walked to a wine shop, only to let go of the hand they were holding together, and ended this strange rehearsal.

"Do you want to go in with me, or..."Su Yi asked.

"Together. Song Qiuyun said lightly.

When the two entered the wine shop, they saw Zhou Xian waving at them across several tables.

As soon as they met, Su Yi noticed that Zhou Xian had a strange look in his eyes, and the indescribable ambiguity and jokes seemed to be related to Song Qiuyun beside him. After a little thought, he knew that he didn't have a good thing in his head.

"You two, please take a seat," Zhou Xian said attentively.

Sure enough, I saw his eyes sweeping back and forth between the two, and the meaning in his eyes was self-evident.

Song Qiuyun didn't care, her face was cold, and she drank tea by herself.

Seeing that she was a woman and didn't take it to heart, Su Yi naturally had nothing to worry about, so he said, "Brother Zhou came really fast. ”

"Of course, as soon as I received the letter from my son, I quickly set off overnight, but I didn't dare to delay in the slightest, for fear that I would make my son wait for a long time. The three fast horses ran alternately, and almost two of them died. ”

Zhou Xian opened his mouth and came, Su Yi shook his head when he heard it, and said in his heart that three fast horses are worth a lot of money, and he can run to death casually and kill two horses without feeling distressed at all, so Zhou Xian doesn't have to find a way out of himself.

However, Su Yi knew that he was just habitually bragging, and he didn't mean to exaggerate, so he didn't try to debunk him.

I heard Zhou Xian laugh again: "Why did Childe only bring one beauty today, and there are three other little beauties? Why don't you bring it out together, everyone drinks a little wine and deepens the relationship." ”

He thought that he was already in the same camp as Su Yi, and he became acquainted with each other, and he was used to the rivers and lakes, so he used this vulgar way to get close to Su Yi, but he didn't expect it to be self-defeating.

Su Yi frowned helplessly: "Can you get down to business?"

But seeing Song Qiuyun "snap" the teacup on the table, she stood up and said coldly: "I'd better wait for you outside." ”

Originally, Zhou Xian only regarded her as Su Yi's lover, and she wasn't very angry, but she couldn't bear it when she made vulgar jokes about the other three juniors. It was also for Su Yi's sake that she didn't make a move.

Looking at Song Qiuyun's departing back, Zhou Xian muttered: "Son, your woman's temper is so hot, you can't make jokes." ”

Su Yi couldn't help but pat his head heavily and said, "Can you show more respect to all the women in the world." ”

Zhou Xian stroked the back of Fa Pain's head and said aggrievedly: "This... Why do you talk about the women of the world, I'm just talking about your women... There doesn't seem to be any mention of other women. ”

Su Yi said angrily: "I think you just don't take women in your eyes from the bottom of your heart, so you will subconsciously do this kind of thing, and it has nothing to do with who is the woman." ”

"Besides, those women are not mine, you must not talk nonsense in the future. Also, fix your stinky faults. ”

"Hey!" Zhou Xian stopped doing it, rolled up his sleeves, and said angrily: "I haven't officially messed with you yet, you started preaching like this, can you still have it in the future?"

"What? You still want to do it with me?"

Su Yi glared at Zhou Xian, as if there were two fires in his eyes that were about to burst out, which made him shudder, and he couldn't help but think of the fire rain in the manor that day, as well as the terrifying scene in Shen Yue's mouth.

Zhou Xian couldn't help swallowing his saliva, knowing that he was frightened by Su Yi's eyes, and there was no chance of winning in a fight, so he immediately admitted: "No, no..."

He is also a person who doesn't know what embarrassment is, and he can bend and stretch, put down his sleeves again, and said while pouring tea for Su Yi: "I can't beat it, I can't beat it... Come, Childe, please have tea. ”

"Can you get down to business now?" Su Yi said coldly.

"Yes, yes. ”

"Let me ask you a few questions first. ”

"Childe, excuse me. ”

"Where did all the people who were sold from Ulzhou end up? Especially the ones that were given to Lord Yao. ”

"Childe... Do you know about Lord Yao?" Zhou Xian was slightly surprised, this was a big secret, and he only heard some truths because he participated in the shipment. It is estimated that apart from Lin Changsheng and Guan Yong, no one else knows, and I don't know where Su Yi found out.

"Otherwise, what do you think I was doing last time I went to Lake Qianba?"

"I don't know," Zhou Xian hurriedly cleared up the relationship and said, "I was just called to help by the guy surnamed Lin, and I don't know anything else..."

"Okay, the past is over, and I won't trouble you about this matter in the future. ”

"Thank you, childe. After Zhou Xian said this, he felt a bit like he had to thank others after being beaten.

"The people that Childe said should have been brought to the capital by Lord Yao. It is said that this adult was very satisfied with those children and cherished them so much that when he left Cangzhou, he also took them with him. The manor left behind is actually only an empty shell, just occasionally coming back to escape the summer or something. ”

It seems that it is almost impossible for Su Yixin to get those people back.

"What is the origin of the four big men who played against me that day?" asked Su Yi again.

"Childe, I really don't know about this. Zhou Xiansheng was afraid that Su Yi would not believe him, so he emphasized first, "Those four people have nothing to do with me, they are all people sent down from above, just because Lin Huanzhi has something to do with the firm, so they borrowed it." And I just play a role in the middle of the schedule, liaising for both sides. I really don't know where they came from..."

Su Yi didn't embarrass him, he just asked casually, and then waved his hand and said, "Forget it." ”
