Shangguan Ruoli is a charming woman, with the charm of a mature woman. She is in her prime, and her youthful beauty is full of youthful vitality. The two have similarities, and they look like mother and daughter at first glance.
The short and fat man couldn't bear the itching in his heart. He smiled obscenely and said, "Both of you, mother and daughter, will follow me. I will ensure that you enjoy the good food, drink spicy food, and wear silk and gold and silver!"
Cao'er blocked Ling Yue behind her, clenching her fists with a clenching sound.
Shangguan Ruoli said coldly: "You are so rampant, do you know who I am?"
The short and fat man laughed and said: "The official saying is quite smooth. Are you from the capital? Who cares who you are? You were sent here and you were abandoned by your family. The sky is high and the emperor is far away. Who dares to mess up?
Rumors!"
After saying that, he said to the loser behind him: "Invite the mother and daughter to the other courtyard as guests!"
The scoundrels swarmed up and wanted to capture Shangguan Ruoli and Ling Yue.
The guard Rong Chuan lent stood in front of him, took off his waist tag and slapped Dumpty in front of him, saying, "Open your dog eyes and take a look. Do you want to destroy the Nine Clans?"
When the short and fat man saw his momentum, he was slightly startled. He squinted his eyes and looked at the waistband. When he saw clearly the word "East Palace" on it, he shuddered. His face suddenly turned into a flattering one, and he laughed and said: "Misunderstanding
, misunderstanding, just joking with you, excuse me, excuse me!"
After saying that, he bowed and bowed again, and then ran away in despair with his henchmen.
Although Cao'er was only eight years old, she had traveled thousands of miles with human traffickers and was used to seeing all kinds of people on the dock. She saw that this short and fat man was a bully, and said angrily: "Madam, these guards are capable, why don't they do a good job?"
Teach that bully a lesson?"
Shangguan Ruoli touched her hair and said: "This bully's father is your master's Shangguan. If he offends him, just giving him some shoes to wear is enough for us. After all, the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and we are born in this place."
Not familiar."
Ling Yue patted her shoulder and said in an old-fashioned way: "This is called being able to bend and stretch! Besides, this is a dock. Beating the son of a high-ranking official in public will have a bad influence."
Cao'er nodded naively, "I understand, we have to fight where no one is."
Ling Yue: "..."
So right!
Shangguan Ruoli said with a smile: "First of all, you must have the ability to beat someone and still escape unscathed. Have you seen his thugs? There are more than twenty masters, who will beat whom?"
Cao'er's little face became solemn, and she nodded fiercely, "I will definitely practice hard!"
Shangguan Ruoli felt that the boy was teachable, so he didn't tell them. She was not a tolerant person. She would take revenge on the spot. She just poisoned the short boy, and he would be itchy all over in two days.
Lifted.
The next evening, Dongming Ziyu came back with Zhu Shenzhi, his wife and two grandsons. When he learned about this, murderous intent flashed in his eyes, but he didn't say anything.
Shangguan met Zhu Shenzhi back then and treated him. The two exchanged a few words and then began to treat Zhu Shenzhi and prescribe medicine.
Zhu Shenzhi's two grandsons, one named Zhu Mingyuan, are twelve years old, and the other is named Zhu Mingzhi, who is ten years old. They are talented in reading. There are no teachers in the village. With Zhu Shenzhi, they can continue to study and take care of their two elders.
Shangguan Ruoli borrowed the kitchen in the post house and cooked a table of northern dishes, which was regarded as a blessing for Zhu Shenzhi's family. Zhu Shenzhi was equal to the master and was Dongming Ziyu's first subordinate in the officialdom. He deserved to be treated seriously.
Mrs. Qian is an outgoing person. After one meal, she and Zhu Su became "big girls, big girls".
Zhu Su is a thin, gentle southern woman. She is pale and frail due to illness all the year round. She also speaks softly and softly, which is in stark contrast to Mrs. Qian's loud voice.
Early the next morning, everyone set out.
As you go south, the mountains become higher and the forests become denser, the population becomes sparse, and the official roads become narrower. On both sides of the road are deep mountains and old forests, rugged rocks, and lush plants. There is a lot of rain here, and you can see creeks, waterfalls, lakes, and swamps everywhere.
, a scene of primeval forest.
The road surface is also a little uneven and the journey is a bit difficult. A hundred and eighty miles in one day is not bad. You can’t see a single home or inn in a day. It is common to camp and sleep in the wild.
Fortunately, Shangguan Ruoli was well prepared and had everything he needed to eat and drink. Everyone had escaped from famine before, so there was nothing they couldn't adapt to except the heat, humidity, and mosquitoes.
On this day, I saw the sun setting but no human beings were seen. Looking around, I saw barren mountains and ridges.
Dongming Ziyu said: "Find a relatively flat place to set up a tent and camp near a water source."
Erhu, who was riding in front, said loudly: "There are falling rocks in front of us, blocking the official road."
Dongming Ziyu rode his horse to the front, and sure enough he saw that the official road was blocked by some stones, and there was a fork road not far away, winding into the deep mountains."
