Chapter Seventy-Three: A Chance Encounter with the Dead

As soon as Laba has passed, the New Year is approaching.

The weather is good these days, the ice and snow of Shenjing City began to warm up, the original snow inside and outside Shenjing City, now it is seven, seven or eighty-eight, only distant mountains, and a little snow, and under the shroud of the warm sun, Su Yang and Shangguan Xiang'er walked on the streets of Shenjing City, and the people who followed Su Yang's side, one was Shangguan Xiang'er's maid Xia Qing, and the other was Li Yuan, who dared to resist King Qi in the imperial city.

Shangguan Xiang'er retreated for a long time after taking the peach, and finally got out of the customs, when she heard that Yan Ruyu went to the Wheel Palace, Jin Se presided over the compilation of Buddhist scriptures, Chunyan helped to cast silver coins, and Sun Li compiled medical scriptures and helped Tiangongyuan make various instruments, so as to make pills or observe the condition.

In this way, among the sisters, only Shangguan Xiang'er has nothing to do, and she has cultivated a skill with Pan Tao, so she wants to go out of the imperial city and kill the demons, it just so happens that Su Yang knows that there is a nest of demons in Shenjing City, so he left the imperial city with Shangguan Xiang'er and walked on the streets of Shenjing City.

In today's world, the new emperor ascended the throne, the new policy was gradually implemented, the common people in the new policy, all benefited, the spiritual outlook was renewed, most of the people who lived in the city of Shenjing were cannibals, and now the weather was good, all of them went to the streets, men and women, like ants.

"It is said that there is a prisoner in Jiaxing, who is in his thirties, born stingy, although there are thousands of family wealth at home, but the servant has always been harsh, a maid only needs half a liter of grain a day, and a servant only gives Liuhe grain ......"

There were a lot of people in front, and it was quiet all around, and there was a faint voice.

Shangguan Xiang'er heard this voice, and immediately forgot her thoughts of killing demons and demons, and Ai Ai looked at Su Yang and wanted to go to the front to join in the fun.

Su Yang looked at Li Yuan, Li Yuan immediately stepped forward, pulled the people inside and pulled them outside, wanting to make way for Su Yang and Shangguan Xiang'er.

"What are you doing?"

The person who was pulled by Li Yuan turned around, directly grabbed Li Yuan's arm, and shouted dissatisfiedly: "What are you pulling me for?"

Li Yuan is quite old, but the person who was pulled by Li Yuan is in the prime of life, and the two of them are fighting here, which immediately attracts everyone's attention.

"Get out of the way!"

Li Yuan frowned, he was also born in the imperial city, and he frowned here, and he also had an aura of not being angry and arrogant.

It's just that this momentum has not frightened the people in front of him, the young man smiled, looked at Li Yuan and said: "The new emperor has already ascended the throne, and the new policy has been issued.

Since Su Yang ascended the throne, several edicts have been issued, many people have been liquidated, and now many officials have put away their tails, especially in Shenjing City, where those big families often close their doors, and the servants at home have lost their previous arrogance.

And like Li Yuan, a slave who came out to push people, the people of Shenjing City haven't seen each other for a while.

"Bold!"

Li Yuan reprimanded sharply: "If you go to the yamen with me, I'm afraid that ......"

"That's it!"

Su Yang stopped, you followed to the yamen, do you want to do things today?

Today is also Li Yuan by the side, Su Yang beckoned him to come out together, but from what he said and did, Su Yang still felt that this person was used to being high, if Xiao Yizi was by his side, he would definitely be able to take care of it, and there would be no such conflict.

Su Yang stepped forward and bowed his hand to the young man, and said with a smile: "The old servant in the family, I haven't gone out for a long time, let everyone laugh, there is a little silver money here......"

Su Yang took out the newly minted silver coin from his bosom and handed it to the young man.

Silver coins are made with a stamping machine, one or two pieces, one side is the peony flower, the other side is the amount, this kind of coin technology, is unprecedented in this world, once the world is respected, many people take the silver money and money bank exchange, the coin is stored at home.

Therefore, after this coin was circulated in the capital of Shenjing, everyone loved it.

When the young man looked at the coin, he smiled at Su Yang and said, "Master Gongzi and his wife want to watch a rat show, please ...... You let Jean, Childe is a moneymaker. ”

Rat play?

Shangguan Xiang'er's face was full of surprise, but Su Yang knew in his heart that this kind of rat show belonged to street performances, and most of the people next to him belonged to white prostitutes, and Su Yang and Shangguan Xiang'er spent money to enter, and the people next to them knew immediately that they were paying, and immediately made room for Su Yang and Shangguan Xiang'er.

The person who was fiddling with the rat show saw Su Yang and Shangguan Xiang'er, and he was also full of smiles, handed over the small bench next to him, and asked Su Yang and Shangguan Xiang'er to sit down, Li Yuan and Xia Qing stood behind Su Yang and Shangguan Xiang'er respectively, and then the person performing the rat show continued to perform.

Today's drama plays a stingy prisoner, who has thousands of family fortunes, but is stingy and refuses to pay, after the death of his wife, he has never married a wife, and then a widow, there is also a lot of money in the family, this stingy prisoner and the widow's brother said, and the widow was married to him, and all the money for the marriage was paid by the widow.

The widow married a lot of money, but after marrying into the prisoner's family, she had coarse tea and light meals every day, and cut down on food and clothing, so the widow couldn't bear it anymore, so she asked her brother to take the prisoner out and swept away all the money from the prisoner's family.

In the end, because of greed for money, the prisoner had nothing, and regretted that if the family wealth was still there, he would have to spend his day and night.

The master who sat there performed ventriloquism, and the rat wore small clothes, walked on two feet on the ground, and acted vividly, especially when the two rats were in the cave room and the candles were flowered, the surrounding group of people gathered here to watch the rats perform various postures, and the flat-headed people next to them were not out of their voices, calling for learning, and the embarrassed Shangguan Xiang'er was full of redness.

"Good, good. ”

At the end of the rat show, Su Yang took out a handful of coins in his arms and put them directly on the copper plate of the artist.

Shangguan Xiang'er's face turned crimson, and she followed Su Yang out of the crowd.

"This kind of opera ......"

Shangguan Xiang'er tugged at the corner of Su Yang's clothes, and her face was feverish.

"It's interesting. ”

Su Yang replied with a smile.

There is also a record of rat play in Liaozhai, but there is only one paragraph.

One person sells rat shows in Chang'an City. Carrying a sac, more than 10 mice in it. Every time in the thick of people, out of the small wooden frame, placed on the shoulder, like a theater building. It is to beat the drum board and sing ancient miscellaneous dramas. As soon as the song moved, there were rats coming out of their pockets, masked, dressed in small clothes, climbing the stairs from their backs, and people standing and dancing. The joys and sorrows of men and women are all in line with the focus of the play.

That is, in the Liaozhai record, it is the people who are singing and the rats are performing the repertoire, and what Su Yang and Shangguan Xiang'er see now is the people telling the story and the rats acting.

These rats are not very intelligent, but they are more intelligent than ordinary rats, and they are supposed to be fed with clever things.

"Master Su, we meet again. ”

Suddenly, a person greeted Su Yang.

Su Yang looked over when he heard the sound, and saw that this person was wearing a cyan cotton coat, his clothes were clean, his demeanor was moderate, and he naturally had a poetic and bookish temperament all over his body, and immediately smiled: "Feng Xiangru!"

The person in front of him is the first love of the red jade girl, and now she is married to Wei, the two of them are in harmony and have a happy life.

"It's been a long time, but you're getting more and more energetic. ”

Su Yang saw Feng Xiangru and said with a smile.

"Relying on Gongzi and the help of today's saints, Feng Xiangru is where he is today. ”

Feng Xiangru arched his hand in the direction of the imperial city and said humbly.

Childe and the current saint ......

Shangguan Xiang'er looked at Su Yang, isn't this a person?

But in Feng Xiangru's opinion, the person who rescued his wife that day was Su Yang, and then in the yamen, it was Chen Yang who rescued their father and son from Zheng Xiong and others.

It is also that there is no Su Yang's head on the silver dollar in circulation, otherwise Feng Xiangru can recognize Su Yang at a glance, and there will be no misunderstanding.

"That day Xiangru was deeply imprisoned, it was difficult to protect himself, and the matter of the son saving the inner son has been unreciprocated, and today I am fortunate to see the son again in Shenjing, please Su Gongzi must appreciate his face, let him do the east under him, please drink a few glasses of thin wine, and the whole phase is like a little heart. ”

Feng Xiangru is in Shenjing City, he has nothing else, only a little money, and he really can't take anything else.

"It's okay, we're just catching up. ”

This is also a reunion of old friends, and Su Yang should also accept it.

Feng Xiangru led the way, Su Yang and Shangguan Xiang'er followed, and then came to a restaurant.

Shangguan Xiang'er walked into the restaurant and saw that the layout was elegant, with winter flowers on the windowsill, and a few bamboo trees and two plum blossoms in the small courtyard, adding some color in this winter season.

"I've seen this restaurant a few times, it's elegantly arranged, and the wine in it is said to be a fine wine. ”

Feng Xiangru greeted Su Yang, Shangguan Xiang'er sat down, Li Yuan and Xia Qing in the back were entertained by Feng Xiangru to sit at another table, and then sat together, the two of them talked about some gossip, Feng Xiangru said, but since Su Yang and the current saint helped, Feng Xiangru almost climbed from hell to the fairyland, the family is rich, and he studied hard, and now he does not want to come, he does not want to sell himself to the king of Qi, but when he heard that the prince was on the throne, he hurriedly came from Guangping, arrived in Shenjing City, and was living with a Zhejiang scholar.

"The scholar's surname is Ning?"

When Su Yang heard this, his heart moved, and with his skill at this time, he already knew who this person was.

Immediately, Feng Xiangru asked about Su Yang's situation.

"I am a ranger, I have traveled to Yishui, Qingyun, Jinling, Hangzhou, Shaanxi, Guangdong and other places, and recently got married and settled in the capital. ”

Su Yang responded with a smile, pointed to Shangguan Xiang'er, and introduced that this was Neiko.

"Feng Xianggong, Su Gongzi. ”

A voice came from the left, Feng Xiangru's roommate came from outside, saw Feng Xiangru, and also saw Su Yang, overjoyed, and stepped forward to greet him.

"Ning Caichen, it's been a long time. ”

Feng Xiangru's roommate surnamed Ning was Ning Caichen, whom Su Yang once met when he was judging geese in Hangzhou.

"It's rare that Childe still remembers me. ”

Ning Caichen smiled and said: "My friend was very anxious that day, and I never had a deep conversation with my son, and my son's handwriting was only imitated one or two, and I felt that calligraphy had made great progress." ”

The three of them all knew each other, and Ning Caichen naturally sat down.

"What judgment, why haven't I heard you mention it?"

Feng Xiangru asked in surprise.

The two of them have been sleeping together recently, and they are both dedicated people who love their wives, and the two of them can be said to have nothing to talk about, but Feng Xiangru has never heard of the verdict.

It is Su Gongzi's handwriting, the pen and ink are deified, according to Xiaosheng, it can already be compared with everyone who has been famous for thousands of years. ”

Ning Caichen said: "It's a pity that this handwritten book, I met a strange woman when I was in Jinhua, she was born very beautiful, but her personality was too weird, and she grabbed the judgment without saying anything, and asked where the book came from, I said that the situation of the son that day, said that the wife was on the side, and the son tried the goose, the woman's expression changed several times, and finally took the judgment book, covered her face and left, but turned the corner, she couldn't find her, I don't know where she was hiding, I looked for a long time and never found it, I regretted it. ”

"See you today, no matter what, you have to be cheeky and ask Childe to write another post. ”

Ning Caichen arched his hand and said.

"It's a small thing. ”

Su Yang said with a smile.

Ning Caichen thought that he had missed the book, but in Su Yang's opinion, he had missed Nie Xiaoqian.

However, with Yan Chixia saving his wife, even if he missed this elf female ghost, Ning Caichen would not care too much, after all, he was "the same in life", when his wife was alive, Ning Caichen never took a concubine, and after his wife died, he married Nie Xiaoqian, and Ning Caichen took a concubine.

It shows that in Ning Caichen's heart, Nie Xiaoqian's status is far inferior to that of his wife.

"What is a goose?"

Shangguan Xiang'er asked strangely.

Feng Xiangru looked at Shangguan Xiang'er, isn't this his wife and relatives on his side? Why don't you know?

Immediately, Feng Xiangru looked at Su Yang.

"It wasn't her with me at the time. ”

Su Yang calmly coped.

PS: The fourth or fifth watch will be delayed a little, about four or five o'clock tomorrow morning, a little thing will be delayed, but then again, this time it will be done anyway, and there will be one or two more before twelve o'clock.
