Chapter 135: Old Friends Meet
"What do you mean by that?"
The old slave's actions immediately made all the officials change color and scolded sharply.
Su Yun also noticed these actions, and immediately scolded: "Elder Li." Have you forgotten the rules of my house? When did you see someone bribe, when did it do anything to my Su Mansion?"
In the distance, a young scholar in front of the desk held the brush and stared at the scene.
Several officials didn't pay attention, and continued to shout: "If you continue, don't blame me for being ruthless." ”
As soon as he raised the gun on his waist, he was threatening, lest the old slave continue.
After being reproached by several people, the old slave suddenly felt bad, his body suddenly froze, and he defended: "But Son, have you forgotten the master's instructions? If we can't set foot in Chengdu Mansion, how can we make the old lady return to the old soil and return to the roots?"
"Then you can't take such measures?" Su Yun snorted lightly, as if angry.
On the other side, the people at the back of the line also felt a little annoyed.
At this moment, it is the time of March, and a round of sunshine hangs high in the sky, making today's temperature three points higher than in the past, and people are panting.
"Hey, it's not a dead man, why doesn't the old pestle move?"
"If you have something to do, will we be okay? Hurry up and get out of the way. ”
"That's right. Lao Tzu has been waiting for a long time, but he hasn't waited. What are you picking?"
“......”
The remarks immediately made the waiting pedestrians even more angry, didn't they open their mouths widely.
As for the scholar in the distance, his face was also serious, and he actually stood up from his seat, as if he had moved.
After being abused by these people, Su Yun's cheeks were also flushed, and she immediately complained: "Old Li, you quickly accept this thing, don't embarrass the soldiers!"
Seeing that a few people looked annoyed, the old slave was resigned, and hurriedly put the silver ingot in his arms, and apologized to all the officials: "Ranking official, the old slave doesn't know the etiquette here, I'm really sorry." I'm sorry!"
Seeing that the silver ingots were withdrawn, all the officials breathed a sigh of relief.
The scholar in the distance also showed approval, but he gave an order to the two people around him, and stood up from where he was seated, but walked towards the noisy area of several people.
Farther away, the man at the back of the line continued to urge.
"Hurry up. I'm still waiting to enter the city! I know it's urgent, do I still have the face to stay here and not move?"
"Leave or handle. Wait, wait, you know that the pestle is motionless here. Waiting for the hell?"
"Just a scholar, what are you talking about? We are not a Great Song Dynasty here. Who cares if he is in line with the etiquette or not. ”
“......”
Hearing these words, Su Yun suddenly felt a little ashamed, and complained to several people: "The kid was offended a lot before, and he was also listed as a soldier Duo Haihan." ”
Although those officials were lax, they looked serious, and said, "Even so. But this man has bribed us, and it is even more visible to all. If you don't come with us, then don't blame me for being polite. ”
Su Yun was dumbfounded for a while, and hurriedly said: "But you also saw it, although my Lao Li had a bribe, he was also stopped by me in time." Ranked, can't you be accommodating?"
Just as several officials were about to defend themselves, they saw a person walking towards him and appealing to the officials: "Of course you can." As long as you follow the rules, how can we obstruct them?"
"How did you come to be?"
When the official saw this person here, he hurriedly stood up and saluted, and explained: "The previous things were all caused by this person, and we are on duty impartially, so we plan to detain the two of them." ”
The master of Zeng nodded and replied: "I already know what you are doing, how can I blame you?" Then he looked at the people who were waiting for him who were full of resentment, and said: "It's just that this place is very narrow, if you continue to pull here, how will others behave?" Then he looked at Su Yun, the corners of his mouth turned slightly, and said with a smile: "In my opinion, it's better to change venues!"
"Absolutely!"
Su Yun bowed slightly, agreed, and walked towards the outside of the city with the person in front of him.
Although the old slave was puzzled, he had no choice but to drive the carriage and follow closely behind.
And those officials did not want to continue to make trouble, waved their hands to their subordinates, and then retreated and returned to the army.
So, the long dragon, which had been stagnant, finally began to move again.
On the other side, Su Yun followed the Zeng master for about half an hour, but came to the edge of a city wall.
And during this journey, he kept staring at this person, but he felt that the person in front of him was somewhat familiar.
was about to open his mouth to ask, but he saw a smile on the corner of the other party's mouth and said, "Su Yun, long time no see!"
Su Yun was surprised for a moment, and asked rhetorically, "Are you?"
"Don't you remember me, my name is Zeng Qu!" Zeng Qu shook his head, looking helpless.
Su Yun thought for a moment, and then a familiar person appeared, shouting: "Zeng True? It turned out to be you, Zeng Niu Barbarian! I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, ten years later, you are still alive?"
At that time, when he was young, he lived in Chengdu Mansion for a while.
And during this period of time, Su Yun naturally had some friends, and the most familiar of them was the Zeng Cheng in front of him.
Speaking of which, it is true that his father is just an ordinary village man, who makes a living by working for a wealthy family on weekdays.
Because of his exposure to his ears and eyes, he also learned some words, so he tried his best to send Zeng Cheng to a private school and act as a scholar, so that he could accompany Su Yun to study together.
Because of this reason, although Zeng and Su Yun have different identities, they also have an unusually strong friendship.
"It's just that how did you join the Red Phoenix Army?" Recognizing the person in front of him, Su Yun unconsciously showed some doubts.
Zeng did reply: "Alas. Haven't they been forced by the Tartars? Since they came here, they have often levied large quantities of grain on the farms. Although we want to resist, our strength is low, and it is difficult to resist at all. So I had no choice but to escape and join the Song army. However, the Song army was weak and could not resist the Tartar army. After the army was dispersed, I had no way to continue, so in order to make a living, I had to join the Red Phoenix Army. ”
In the calm, there are many waves, but it also makes people feel that the world is impermanent, but after all, after a long time, the two met.
"I see?" Su Yun pondered for a moment, and then said, "It's just that what happened just now? When did the Chifeng Army arrive in Chengdu Mansion? ”
Zeng Qu shook his head and explained: "I don't blame you for this, after all, the Red Phoenix Army moved too quickly, but in more than two months, it wiped out all the surrounding Tartars." Otherwise, how could so many people move here?"
"I see!" Su Yun closed her head slightly, remembering what happened before, and asked, "What happened before?
Zeng did smile bitterly: "It's not that we are rude, but the King of Jin has rules that prohibit us from accepting money and gifts, and if we are offended, we will be expelled directly." ”
"Oh, then King Jin has such ability?" Su Yun continued to ask.
