"Ouch, I have a stomachache...Brother, there are three things people have to worry about. I think you are extremely righteous, noble, trustworthy and loyal to others, which is really admirable, but I..."
"Shut up!"
"Hey... I see that my eldest brother is a calm man and has high-level martial arts skills. Have you ever been married? Based on my eldest brother's condition, I think my sister-in-law must be gentle, graceful, and beautiful, right? Ah, if eldest brother doesn't say anything, could he still be married?
Not getting married? Brother, you have finally found the right person. I, Xu, have no other abilities, but I know all the ladies in Qiantang County. Do you like lively and lovely ladies or considerate ladies?
The one in the east of the city..."
Click...
A big knife was placed on Xu Qian's neck again, and at the same time there was a cold face illuminated by the faint light of a lantern on the street.
"If you don't want to get married, then you don't want to get married. Why do you need to do anything?" Xu Qian shrank his neck and muttered in a low voice.
"What did you say?" the stern official shouted.
"No, it's nothing. I was just thinking that since the eldest brother doesn't like to have a wife, he must be quite interested in the girls in the brothel? That's it. A wife is not as good as a concubine, and a concubine is not as good as a prostitute. I didn't expect that the eldest brother and the younger brother have the same ambition.
, I see that since everyone is so close to each other, I will simply act as host. When the time comes, Brother Bao will be satisfied. After the elder brother has calmed down, how about I go with him to see the prince?"
The official was obviously not interested in listening to Xu Qian's nonsense, so he took Xu Qian's arm and continued to move forward.
Xu Qian was speechless, thinking to himself, aren't you just running errands for the eunuchs? How can you talk about moral integrity? I don't believe that I can't fool you. He rolled his eyes, dug into his money bag, and took out a piece of broken silver.
Come, throw it on the ground, and then shout: "Wow, who is so unethical and throws money on the street casually? Such a big piece will kill someone!"
The official was indifferent and dragged Xu Qian away as usual.
Xu Qian shouted and said: "Hey, hey, money... there are one, two or three dollars, brother, why don't you pick it up?"
The officer's face was expressionless.
Xu Qian burst into tears: "Oh my god, my money... my one, two or three coins..."
Xu Qian didn't notice that there was a hint of coldness in the official's eyes.
After turning a street, the mansion of the guarding eunuch was already in sight. The official grabbed Xu Qian and pulled him into a small alley.
Xu Qian was nervous, wondering if this guy wanted to kill someone and silence him? He was blocked by the official's burly body and could only lean against the back wall, looking at the official warily and saying, "Aren't you going to see the prince?"
"Yes, that's right, I'm going to see the prince, but before that, I have something to say to you." The officer smiled solemnly at Xu Qian. Although he was as indifferent as before, he talked more than before.
Xu Qian felt something was wrong and said, "What do you want to say?"
The official sneered and said: "It's nothing. Didn't you just say that you wanted to go east to Lichun Court, and then you said that you lost your money? I see that your money bag was quite heavy just now, and you must have a lot of broken silver. Hey, Wang
I know my father-in-law's temper very well. Will he let you go if you go in this time? As you just said, you and I are also destined, why not leave your money bag to me for safekeeping."
Xu Qian was not a fool. The so-called safekeeping was actually a sheep entering a tiger's mouth. He quickly shook his head like a rattle and said: "No, this is what I have earned so hard, why should I give it to you?"
The official rarely showed a treacherous smile, patted Xu Qian's shoulder, and said: "We are all brothers in the world. Now that brothers are in trouble, can I just stand by and watch? Leave this money bag to me for safekeeping, so as not to be exposed to others.
I searched for it. I did it for your own good. We all met by chance, but we are very close to each other. I can't just ignore it. Don't worry, I will go to say hello to the person who executed you later. Although I can't guarantee that you won't.
You may suffer from physical pain, but your life will always be left to you."
This guy is obviously a gangster. Fortunately, Xu Qian just thought that this guy is not moved by fame and fortune. It turns out that he doesn't care about the small profit he just promised.
The official looked at Xu Qian with a look that was good for you, and Xu Qian looked at the official with a cruel look. Their eyes intertwined, and Xu Qian suddenly felt like he was abducted by a strange uncle with a lollipop.
Little loli.
"Okay, brother is so generous, what else can I say?" Xu Qian gritted his teeth, immediately took off his money bag and generously sent it over. This was all the money he had saved from selling prescriptions, but he
It won't work if you don't give him. They are just abducting him now. If the abduction fails, he will be robbed later. It's better to be a wise man.
"Good brother!" The officer patted Xu Qian on the shoulder and said sincerely.
"Good brother..." Xu Qian's eyes were red, and there were faint tears.
"I recognize you as a brother. My name is Deng Jian. From now on, you can call me Brother Deng. Brother Deng is very righteous. Qiantang County is also famous for being impatient and righteous. Don't worry, eldest brother will not let you go."
You suffer a loss."
"I wish you, such a righteous bastard, will be hit by a carriage tomorrow when you go out." Xu Qian cursed in his heart, but wiped his eyes, squeezed out some tears, took Deng Jian's hand and said, "Brother Deng is so kind to my younger brother.
Okay, I will definitely keep this in mind."
"What are these words? Although we have not burned yellow paper, but when I say to you, Brother Deng, there is no need to be so polite. It is the principle of my life, Deng, to stand up for my brothers. Yes, Brother Deng has another
I think it will be good for you, come on, come on, just put your fingerprints here." Deng Jian put the money bag into his sleeve, he was in a great mood, and he pulled out a piece of paper from his sleeve while laughing.
Come on, there are actually many small words densely written on the paper. He handed the paper to Xu Qian, took out a box of red mud, and said with a smile: "Come on, just draw a stamp in the lower right corner."
Xu Qian stared at the words on the paper and couldn't help but take a breath. He was indeed a good brother. This was a letter. The letter was written to his father, saying that he had been trapped in the mansion of the guarding eunuch.
Please ask the old man to try to rescue him. It is best to raise some silver and leave it to the official Deng Jian for management.
This... is really breaking the bones and peeling off the skin. This bastard has actually prepared the letter already. He must have thought about killing himself before coming to him.
"Brother Deng..."
"You don't have to say any more." Deng Jian patted Xu Qian's shoulder to stop Xu Qian from continuing, and said affectionately: "You and I are brothers, your business is my business, hurry up and seal the deal.
Let’s go to see the prince. Well, that’s what it’s like... ah? You don’t want to, boy. Brother Deng has a clear sense of grudges and grudges. He treats his brothers like a breeze, but if he is an enemy of Brother Deng, he will draw his sword.
, blood splattered for five steps..."
…………………………………………
After being dragged to the guarding eunuch's house, Xu Qian was completely at his wits' end and despaired to the extreme. In the past, he was the only one who deceived and deceived people. Unexpectedly, today he was severely blackmailed by this man surnamed Deng. He secretly thought in his heart: "Qian Qian
Don't let me have a chance to turn around, otherwise you will look good with the surname Deng."
Then he started thinking wildly, the prince was famous for being ruthless, what good could he do if he fell into his hands?
The eunuch's mansion is not small in scale. In front of the mansion are two stone lions, which seem to be coated with a layer of halo under the subtle swagger of the lanterns. The stone lions are ferocious, with their mouths open and bloody, and their big copper bell-like eyes seem to mock the passers-by.
There are two doormen at the door, both of them are tall and tall. Although they are wearing green clothes and small hats, they don't look like bad guys.
"People have been brought here." Deng Jian dragged Xu Qian and returned to his extremely cold look.
The two servants looked at Xu Qian and nodded in unison.
One of the servants had already grabbed Xu Qian's hand before Deng Jian was willing to let Xu Qian go. He delivered the mission and said to Xu Qian with a smile: "Brother Xu, we will see you later."
Xu Qian cursed in his heart: "Don't let me see you again." But he said with a smile on his face: "Brother Deng... take care."
The doorman obviously had no interest in letting Xu Qian continue to mess around. One of them had already lifted Xu Qian up and dragged Xu Qian into the house.
Xu Qian felt extremely sad and angry. If he were older, he would not be bullied by these guys at will. It is really not elegant to be dragged in now.
Entering the eunuch's mansion, there were many archways and ritual gates inside. Xu Qian cursed in his heart: You are a dead eunuch, why did you build so many archways? Do you think you are a bitch?
He was a little scared in his heart. He was just a very inconspicuous time-travelling person. He needed force but no force value, and he needed background but no background. Now, I hope that the dead eunuch will just clean up and never do anything serious.
I don’t know how many Langfang and Moon Cave I have passed, and I have entered three levels of ritual gates. The doorman carrying Xu Qian stopped at the corridor outside an attic. A young man in green clothes and a small hat happened to come towards me, coldly.
He looked Xu Qian over and over, and said to the doorman: "Let's take him in, the prince is already waiting impatiently."
The doorman nodded and took Xu Qian into the attic. The attic was in the shape of a hall, but it was obviously not a formal hall. It was almost like a flower hall in the backyard. Xu Qian was stunned. He pulled himself here. He must have been lynched.
, he was pushed to the center of the hall by the doorman, and looked around. The decoration here was actually quite elegant. There were many paintings and calligraphy hanging on the east wall, swords and guqin hanging on the west wall, and a lamp stand with chrysanthemum patterns in the corner.
The candlelight was covered with a red gauze cover, so that the hall glowed dimly.
On the wall to the north is a beautifully framed calligraphy and painting hanging. Under the light, Xu Qian saw the four words "Respectful, Loyal and Liang" written on the banner.
Xu Qian secretly cursed in his heart. He had only heard of people hanging warnings like "Hainan Baichuan", "Be honest" or "God rewards those who work hard" on the front wall. He had never heard of anyone using slogans like "Be respectful and loyal".
The banner is hung on the north wall of the main hall. This damn eunuch's taste is really unusual.
"Ahem..." A cough came out.
When Xu Qian heard the voice, he focused his attention on a man in scarlet robe sitting behind the document.
This man was sitting high on the chair. He was about forty years old. His face was fair and beardless, and his skin was well maintained. However, at this time, this man was staring at him. Xu Qian felt that his eyes were sinister, which made people feel sad.
Very uncomfortable.
Is this person the prince?
Xu Qian said nothing, and quickly saluted with a smile: "I have met my father-in-law, little Xu Qian."
At this time, playing tricks with the prince would be courting death, so Xu Qian decided to curb his bastard spirit and become a good citizen.
Anyway, he is a child, so it is nothing to kneel down and salute. Compared with his life, the so-called domineering side and the shaking of the tiger's body are just a joke. Most of the execution grounds in Caishikou are filled with guys who have too much bastard spirit.
"So it's you?" Wang Gonggong looked at Xu Qian sternly, but he didn't seem to expect that the guy selling the prescription was so young, and he seemed a little surprised.
"Tsk, tsk, I didn't expect someone with thin skin and tender flesh to be quite handsome."
This sentence made Xu Qian feel a little scared. He had always known that the dead eunuchs had a strong taste. Could it be that this dead eunuch...
Then cold sweat oozed from his forehead, and under the shadow of the candle, Xu Qian's face seemed to be emitting a dim halo.
