Zhan Feiyu grabbed the resentful Yang Xu and nodded with a smile, "Okay, I'll give you ten taels of silver."
"No need to do so much. My old woman is not trying to blackmail you. This is how you send me to the clinic and see what the doctor says." The old woman stopped crying. As soon as she said this, the passers-by were a little surprised.
Before, the old woman asked for the hairpin on Zhan Feiyu's head as soon as she opened her mouth. Everyone was poor. I don't know how valuable this hairpin is, but it must be more than ten taels of silver.
It's normal that the little girl made her break her finger? But I didn't expect that the old woman would be willing to give up ten taels of silver. If she went to the clinic, it would probably cost one tael of silver.
No.
Yang Xu was also puzzled. He looked at the old woman who was still slumped on the ground. Isn’t it to extort money?
"I won't go to the clinic, you can go by yourself. You can bring the ten taels of silver with you. If you have too much, leave it behind." As soon as Zhan Feiyu said this, He Nuan had already taken out two small silver ingots of five taels and handed it to him.
past.
"I just saw it, it was not the one that this little girl pushed." Just as everyone thought the matter was resolved, a cold voice came from the bun shop.
Everyone looked back and saw that it was Baozi Xishi who was talking. She only looked at her left face, but she was a rare beauty. Her face was as big as a palm, her skin was as creamy as a mountain, and her eyebrows were as dark as a mountain. When she looked at people, her eyes were dotted, even though her eyes were cold,
It still makes the spring love that seems to be like water.
But seeing Baozi Xi Shi's right face through the white mist is really shocking. A scalded scar entrenched on his cheeks. The twisted scars are like red flesh worms condense together. It's better during the day, but this is
I saw it at night, and it probably scared people.
At the gaze of the passerby, Baozi Xishi's face was colder and his voice was even colder, "I just stood on the stool to carry a steamer."
There was a earth stove on the left side of the bun shop, and five trays of bamboo steamers were placed on it. The buns were so strong that they could not move all three or five trays of steamers just by raising their hands. She could only tray one tray one
The move is so that you can stand on a stool, stand tall and see clearly.
"The Jia girl doesn't lie. Did you, a woman, think that the little girl is dressed well, so she deliberately cheated people?" The aunt with a basket on her arm glared at the guilty old woman, "Go to this one
I asked around the street and asked, Sister Jia is a honest person.”
"Yes, the last time my son came to buy buns, the silver bracelet on his hand fell to the ground, but it was sent back by Sister Jia." Another uncle echoed, full of gratitude in his words.
This is the full moon gift given to my son by my brother-in-law. A pair of silver bracelets cost ten taels of silver, and most people get rid of them. After all, the child is young, so I don’t know if the bracelet falls off. It has been three days when my family finds it. Fortunately,
Baozi Xishi found out the news and sent it back.
"You all bully me, the old country woman." He got up from the ground, and the old woman spoke angrily and rushed over like crazy.
The two aunts in front of the shop hurriedly made way out. The old woman was so old that her bones were crisp. If she fell again and was robbed by her, she would probably not be able to do anything good without a few taels of silver.
"Who told you to meddle in other people's business?" He cursed at the bun Xishi with spit on him. The old woman pushed her hands suddenly, and the five-layer bamboo steamer fell down in a flash.
Baozi Xishi stood aside, fortunately she hid quickly, otherwise the hot steamer would have hit her face and probably would have been burned.
But it was okay, all the white buns in the steamer fell to the ground, causing everyone to exclaim. After the old woman made a tantrum, she leaped into the crowd and slipped away in an instant. No one was able to react at the fast speed.
.
"This old woman who is plagued the buns in vain!"
"Yes, I slipped away very quickly."
"The buns are all stained with dust." Several aunts helped pick up all the buns that rolled to the ground. The old woman was very strong. None of them survived the five-tray steamer, and all fell to the ground.
Meat buns cost two cents per, vegetable buns cost one penny, and buns Xishi lost more than one hundred cents at once.
Zhan Feiyu looked at the dirty bun with a bitter face and was extremely entangled.
"Miss, I'll come here to buy it later." He Nuan spoke warmly. It took time for him to sleep in the open air during this period. He Nuan had not made any money.
His eyes lit up, and Zhan Feiyu nodded with a smile, "Then Yang Xu and I will go back to the carriage first."
He Nuan took out a piece of silver or two from his purse and put it on the long table at the door, "This is the money to pay for the buns. If you don't dislike it, everyone will bring two buns back to eat."
Although it fell to the ground, it was just a little dusty. You can eat it by tearing off the skin outside. It was just that you spent two cents to buy dirty buns and you wouldn't be happy. You might get two for free, so everyone couldn't help but
happiness.
"No need..." Baozi Xishi was about to refuse, but He Nuan had turned around and left, and the others suddenly blocked the door of the shop, waiting for each person to get two buns.
In the carriage, Zhan Feiyu put down the curtain of the car, "A Nuan, have you sent someone to keep an eye on it?"
"Well, it's over." He Nuan nodded. Even though the woman pretended to be very similar, this trick was not enough in front of the well-trained Forbidden Dragon Guard.
Yang Xu looked at Zhan Feiyu and He Nuan in a daze, and asked blankly: "Who are you staring at? That woman?"
"The woman had some problems. Someone deliberately tried to push and shoved just now." The reason why He Nuan didn't take action was that she saw that the woman was just an ordinary person and had no time, and was not afraid to alert the enemy.
When Yang Xu was in Shitou Village, he saw He Nuan take action, and he also knew that their brother and sister were sent by Mr. Gu to protect Zhan Feiyu. He must be the dead soldier of the Bachelor's Mansion. He Nuan saw the abnormality of the woman.
Not surprising.
"How did you find out?" Yang Xu looked at Zhan Feiyu. He practiced martial arts with his father for many years, but he still couldn't see it. Could it be that scholars are more powerful?
Zhan Feiyu didn't keep it in a silence, "She fell to the ground. Generally, in this case, her elbow fell to the ground first, and her hands would not be injured."
When you fall backwards, your butt falls to the ground, and in order to maintain balance, your elbows will be held at the same time, and your hands will be raised at this moment. If you fall down in front, your palms will be held at the ground, which will break your fingers.
But Zhan Feiyu was in front of the old woman at that time. If she fell forward, it would have to be pushed by the person behind her, and it had nothing to do with Zhan Feiyu.
Yang Xu has been practicing martial arts for several years. Zhan Feiyu understood this after saying this, but he didn't think about this at that time, so he wouldn't pay attention to the details.
"Secondly, the woman asked for the hairpin on my head at the beginning. If the hairpin was bought for ten taels of silver, she could be exchanged for at most one or two taels of silver when she was sent to the pawnshop." Zhan Feiyu judged that the other party was definitely not in the countryside.
Old woman, if you are really greedy and blackmailed, it would be better to just ask for a few taels of silver. Why not do this for nothing?
If it is a habitual offender or a liar, there must be a way to attack this hairpin, but the old woman turned around and asked Zhan Feiyu to take her to the clinic, which shows that the other party did not come for money.
"So the clinic may have set up a trap?" Yang Xu frowned. No wonder Sister A Nuan didn't even want the woman.
"Maybe, but I don't plan to take risks if a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, so I can only let someone follow me." Zhan Feiyu nodded. With the lessons of Huai'an Mansion, she dare not take risks now because someone protects her.
She only has one life, but she doesn't want to die young.
...
Qiu Zongxi was extremely happy about Zhan Feiyu and Yang Xu who were delivered to him and immediately asked the servants to arrange their place to live.
At night, under the light of the candlelight, Zhan Feiyu put down the book and looked at He Sheng who came to report the news, "Did you find it out? I feel that there are the forty-eight corpses hanging on the city wall, which should be for Yang Xu.
Yes?"
After settling down in Mr. Qiu's yard in the afternoon, He Nuan and the others noticed that an unidentified person was approaching the yard, but there was no malice. If it was not the person from Zhan Feiyu, he must have been here to protect Yang Xu.
"The mother-in-law's surname is Mao, she lives in Nanmen Lane, and has an incompetent son at home. The mother-in-law, who died early, is a barefoot doctor. She also knows some medicinal herbs. She usually goes to the mountains to dig medicinal herbs and sells some dog skin plaster in the village below.
.” What He Sheng didn’t say was that this woman would go to the countryside to sell childbirth medicine.
Some rural women who can't give birth to children, or who have given birth to a few girls and want to have a son, always want to take some folk remedies, so Mao's mother will prescribe some medicine, and she will make it four or five times ten times, which is quite famous.
She would cheat and cheat again. After seeing the person, she could sell a tael of silver for a pair of childbirth medicine.
Zhan Feiyu nodded. It sounded like nothing big of a problem. "I have lived in Xiangwu County for twenty or thirty years?"
"Yes, there are many old residents in Nanmen Lane. After Dr. Mao passed away, the mother-in-law and her son have been living here. However, she usually goes to the village to collect herbs and sell medicines. Not many people in Xiangwu County know her.
.” Although nothing was found for the time being, He Sheng still asked someone to keep watching, and would rather kill him by mistake than let him go.
"If there is any problem, if you fail to make a plan, you will definitely have a backup plan. Sooner or later, you will be exposed." Zhan Feiyu was not worried. She had shown Wu Baihu the token of the Forbidden Dragon Guard.
At present, Xiangwu County is still safe, at least the garrison will not drag you down. As for the Marquis’ Mansion in the border area, no matter how much you do, it will be a desperate struggle. Since the emperor wants to restore the Yang family, no one can stop it.
After picking up the book again, Zhan Feiyu tightened his hand and suddenly asked, "Will anyone kill the Yang family?"
In Huai'an Prefecture, Zhan Feiyu was almost killed in a prison by catching a turtle in a jar. So many dead soldiers were not done by a certain prince or family, but by many people, relying on the law and not ruling the crowd, and the emperor cared about it.
Even if the father-son relationship is not thoroughly investigated, the matter will be left to nothing.
Perhaps in the eyes of the emperor, Zhan Feiyu was just slightly injured and nothing happened. He could not find out the prince in the palace for a little girl.
Thinking of what Yang Xu asked in the kitchen, Zhan Feiyu did not have the heart of the old general Yang. She wrote down this silence, but now her arm can't twist her thighs, so she can only admit defeat. Whenever she finds a chance to take revenge, Zhan Fei
Fish will never show mercy.
The Yang family is facing the same situation as Zhan Feiyu at the beginning. The princes in the palace and ministers in the court are definitely not happy with the Yang family guarding the seven guards in the northwest. This means that the salt tax is firmly controlled by Yang
In the hands of the family, the Yang family is loyal to the emperor, and they probably won’t get any money of oil and water for one or two silver dollars.
In order to change this situation, as long as we jointly take action to kill the Yang family, the emperor can only re-select people to be responsible for the Northwest Seven Guards to be responsible for the salt farm. At that time, each person can rely on his ability to find out who can put his own people in.
The salt tax is as high as 50 million trump cards every year, and it is enough to make a fortune from it, whether it is to win over court officials or train private soldiers.
He Sheng was not surprised that Zhan Feiyu thought so deeply and said in a deep voice: "The Longyou Road station has nearly 300,000 troops. In addition to the garrisons of various prefectures, counties and counties, the seven guards have nearly 200,000 troops."
The garrisons scattered all over the country are responsible for the security of prefectures and counties in the prefectures and counties. However, once a war occurs, the garrison troops will gather to help the border. The emperor was worried that the Yang family will be respectful of their own troops. This is also the source of the 300,000 troops.
Only the Yang family's orders are followed, how could the emperor who is far away in the capital be at ease?
The book I just picked up was put down again, Zhan Feiyu frowned, and his voice showed some concern, "So if something happened to the Yang family, the people behind the scenes can not only make money from the salt tax, but also may also gather some
military power."
"It's true at the moment, but I don't know much about the military." He Sheng was not hiding it, but after he became Zhan Feiyu's guard, the confidential information he could get was from the local Forbidden Dragon Guard.
They didn't know the deeper secret information that the secret agent found in the mouth, but they really knew. The commander Yin Wuyan was the commander.
...
Early the next morning, even though the sun came out, it was still so cold that it made people want to hide in the bed. In the weather in Longyoudao, it was almost the same, not to mention the dripping water turned into ice.
He Nuan made dumplings and mutton stuffed with it. Anyone who bites it freshly can bite off his tongue.
Yang Xu ate a bowl with his head down and then served a bowl of dumplings the size of gold ingots. If Zhanfeiyu likes to eat them, he will be full if he gets eight. Judging from Yang Xu's attitude, he will probably be able to eat twenty.
Qiu Zongxi took Zhan Feiyu towards the study, "Is it a fool who is lucky to be stupid?"
Looking back at Yang Xu who was eating in the room with relish, Zhan Feiyu smiled, "Everyone is bustling, like enjoying a strong life, like spring on stage, I am alone and not showing signs, like a baby who is not a child.
He is like a child, and there are many treacherous and slandered in the court."
After a pause, Qiu Zongxi looked at the little girl with a smile in the sun. He didn't expect that she would have such high praise to Yang Xu or the Yang family. Then he thought about it and understood, otherwise how could she be willing to give so much silver.
Go to the army.
"Yang Xu can do what I can't do, but I can only give more things outside my body." Zhan Feiyu said with a crisp face. She was afraid of death and could not be able to wrap the body in the horse's leather. All she could give was silver.
That's it.
Qiu Zongxi pushed open the door of the study and asked Zhan Feiyu to come in, "You don't have to belittle yourself. What you do is something that 99% of the people in the Daqing Dynasty cannot do."
