Chapter 294: Love and Hate
"Angry, it's not just angry, it's too much to forbid!" Huang Yi said: "No wonder the eldest lady ...... Uh, no...... No wonder the girl kept calling him back and forth. Isn't this guy a man at all......"
It's not that he is not a man if he becomes a eunuch, he really has no sense of responsibility at all. married someone else, but he ran away to be a eunuch!
"That's right! That dead ghost is not a man at all!" Aunt Peng said sadly: "The most infuriating thing is that he stole the bracelet he gave me before entering the palace, and I have been trying to get it back." But he didn't even dare to admit me, you say that...... Alas!"
"Acquaintance is fate, I didn't expect the girl to have such a ruthless husband! Otherwise, let me help you get that bracelet back today!" Huang Yi said righteously.
Is it considered that getting the bracelet back will be the end of this 'resentful woman'?Huang Yi thought!
"Young man, do you mean it really?" said Aunt Peng happily.
"Yes, I, a representative of good people and good deeds, the living Lei Feng of the present generation, is not a fake!" Huang Yi said.
"But ......" Aunt Peng hesitated for a moment and said, "That dead ghost was originally a little eunuch of the Sui Dynasty, and I don't know how to please that Li Yuan." Now, stay in the palace in Chang'an all day, you won't see him at all!"
"Don't worry, I have a way! Oh yes, what's your husband's name? I can't find the wrong person!" Huang Yi said.
"He used to be called Peng Guoxiong. Later, after becoming a little eunuch in the Sui Dynasty, he was called Xiao Pengzi, and now he should be called Peng Gonggong!"
"Okay, without further ado, I'll go find him!" Huang Yi finished speaking, and then stood up. Suddenly embarrassed, he said, "Uh...... Changan...... Huh?"
"Yes!" Aunt Peng nodded, suddenly grabbed Huang Yi's arm, as if she was afraid that he would run away, and said, "You don't want to regret it, do you?"
"I didn't ...... No!" Huang Yi sweated and said, "It's just that all my money before was given to an old beggar, and now ...... I didn't go to Chang'an!"
"What is this! I don't have a good business in my pastry shop, but I still have some savings. This is five taels of silver, if you really help me make my wish, I will be rewarded at that time!" Aunt Peng said generously.
"This ...... Alright!" Huang Yi nodded. Anyway, it's a favor for her, and the money is not stressful.
The reason why it is so refreshing, first of all, Huang Yi also feels angry. A good man, he married a wife who was quite standard, and he actually went to be a eunuch.
Secondly, he also wanted to complete this test of the White Tiger as soon as possible. Go and see what the four holy beasts are.
He's seen the Suzaku, but I wonder if there's another Suzaku?
Huang Yi rode the horse rented by the post station, traveled day and night, and finally, arrived in Chang'an City two days later.
The last time I came, because of Mrs. Zeng Huanran, Huang Yi didn't have a good look at this ancient capital that has been passed down for thousands of years. This time, it's time to take a good look at the magnificent scenery!
Chang'an City is the most important button in the pass, compared with other places, more than a star and a half.
Chang'an City is divided into three parts: Guocheng, Miyagi and Imperial City. The palace city and the imperial city are located in the northern center of Chang'an City. It is bounded by Suzaku Street in the middle of the street. Thousands of houses are like a game of Go, and the 12th Street is like a vegetable field.
The two most lively markets are the Metropolis and Liren City, which are located in the southeast and southwest of the Imperial City. There are four streets in each city, forming a cross-shaped layout of 'wells'.
Many restaurants are open all night. It can be said that this Chang'an City has truly pushed it to a prosperous resort that never sleeps.
The imperial city takes Daxing Palace as the center, covering an area of more than 700,000 square meters, with a construction area of about 150,000 square meters, more than 70 large and small palaces, and more than 9,000 houses. There are three main gates on the city wall, from left to right, which are "Hanguang Gate", "Suzaku Gate" and "Anmenmen".
Huang Yi was standing at the entrance of Suzaku Street at this time, marveling at this huge imperial city!
"Further on, it is the main gate of the palace 'Vermilion Bird Gate'!" Huang Yi looked at the sky and said to himself: "It's going to be night, let's settle the matter as soon as possible!"
As soon as Huang Yi walked in, two rows of soldiers at the door immediately stopped him and said, "In the land of the palace, idle people are not allowed to enter!"
"What's that......" Huang Yi said with a haha: "Peng Guoxiong, Peng's father-in-law's relatives dragged me to bring him something." I would also like to ask you to let me know. When the father-in-law arrives, he will be rewarded. ”
The palace is so big, Huang Yi doesn't think that he can find Peng Guoxiong who he has never met on his own. Otherwise, he could have waited until it was dark to get into the palace. The city wall of more than ten zhang still can't stop Huang Yi's bird crossing technique.
"Wait!" said one of them, taking the order.
Huang Yi had nothing to do, and waited on the street for more than half an hour, before the man was late with a eunuch.
"Gonggong Peng, it's this person!" said the person who went to report before pointed at Huang Yi.
The eunuch stepped forward and looked at Huang Yi twice, and said in a voice that lacked energy: "Well, he is indeed our fellow countryman, thank you for your hard work!"
As he spoke, a silver ingot was delivered to the person who had reported it before, and said, "These silver taels are invited by our family for you to eat and drink at night." Don't say anything about it. ”
"Yes, thank you, father-in-law!" several people immediately thanked happily!
On the contrary, it was Huang Yi, but he was stunned at this time! Why did he become his fellow countryman?
"Follow me!" Peng Guoxiong said, leading in one direction.
"Oh!" Huang Yi followed in a daze.
"Did she get you here?" walked over to a no-man's land. Peng Guoxiong suddenly asked. At the same time, there was an extra jade bracelet in her hand at some point: "Does she still want to get this bracelet back?"
Huang Yi was stunned: "Since my father-in-law guessed my intentions, I have nothing to hide." Yes, Aunt Peng did ask me to get the bracelet back. ”
"Alas, why won't she let it go?" Peng Guoxiong sighed.
"You have been a 'father-in-law' for so many years, and you have never let go?" Huang Yi said.
"What are you talking about!" Peng Guoxiong's body shook, and his eyes stared at Huang Yi.
"I thought it was some kind of heirloom treasure before, but it turned out to be just such a broken bracelet, at most five or six taels, right?" Huang Yi asked.
"When I was poor, when I bought this bracelet for her, it really only cost more than three taels, but it was all my savings. Peng Guoxiong said: "But so what?"
"A broken bracelet of more than three taels, in the eyes of Gonggong Peng now, should be a worthless waste, right. The money that my father-in-law gave to people was a whole ingot. Now it is a treasure to cherish this broken bracelet. Aunt Peng said that she came to ask for it many times, but you didn't give it! I can only say that Father-in-law Peng ...... Smart is mistaken by smart......" Huang Yi said with a sigh.
Peng Guoxiong's body shook again, looked at the bracelet in his hand and muttered, "I see." As an insider, he can't see through it. Sure enough, it's still a bystander!"
"You think you deceived everyone, but in fact, Aunt Peng sees it better than anyone else. Otherwise, he would not have paid me for this broken bracelet worth a few taels, and invited me to come to you! You know, the rent of a single horse costs three taels of silver. ”
Peng Guoxiong was silent.
"Or, tell me your story......" Huang Yi suddenly said.
"It's been so long! what else is there to say...... Peng Guoxiong said. (To be continued.) )
