The Marquis of Fu Guo repeatedly complained to King Qiemo about Zha Da, but the King was partial to his half-brother, so every time he agreed but did not take any actual action.
Adili obviously did not agree with this explanation, but he did not continue to argue with Zhada.
At this time, Zhida said sluttishly: "It's a pity that he has such a beautiful daughter."
Zhahe said with a flattering face: "Cousin, this matter is easy to handle. The Marquis of Fu Guo was executed, so you suggested that the king confiscate his house and send his family as slaves. When the time comes, cousin, what do you want to do to his daughter?
Like this, how about that?”
After saying that, the two of them laughed obscenely. But General Zuo didn't seem to hear it and was minding his own business eating food and drinking wine.
Adili frowned, thinking secretly in his mind.
During the dinner, Adilido mainly flattered Zhamuhe and praised the king, and the dinner was naturally full of laughter and laughter. Because Zhada thought he had obtained Guli, he happily drank more and drank more with Zhahe.
The goblets were drinking from each other.
Ye Feng was not very familiar with everyone, so he didn't talk much during the dinner. Ye Feng mostly tasted the dishes in the general's house. The quality of Zhamuhe's banquet was actually similar to that of Adili's family, or even slightly worse. This may be because of Adi's
He is richer here, or Zhamuhe, General Zuo, has little fortune.
Zhahe was mostly flattering during the banquet, looking everywhere and paying attention to everyone's expressions and words. He was smiling everywhere, with a cunning look in his eyes, and he often fawned over Zhamuhe and Zhada.
Ye Feng felt that he was not a kind person. Of course, Ye Feng felt that he was just a passerby, so he would not offend anyone because of his personal likes and dislikes.
At the end of the banquet, Zhada and Zhahe had already drunk and fell asleep. A servant next to them covered them with blankets.
Zhamuhe drunkenly said to Ye Feng: "Brother Ye, if you don't give up, why not stay in our Qiemo country? I can ask Brother Wang to give you an official position, and I guarantee that you will enjoy endless glory and wealth."
Ye Feng politely declined: "Thank you, General Zuo, for your love, but I will be returning to Dazhou with Brother Shen Xi in a few days."
Zhamuhe glanced at Adili imperceptibly, and then said to Ye Feng: "That's a pity. I also want Brother Wang and I to fund a hundred workshops for you and let you take charge of it. I can give you a share of the profits in the future.
, isn’t it better to be one’s own boss than to be someone else’s guard?”
Zhamuhe was a little unwilling to give up. He had always thought that Ye Feng was just an ordinary guard at Shen Xi's place, and thought that the other party would definitely be attracted by his generous offer.
Ye Feng kept a smile on his face and said, "It's just that I still have old parents at home, so I really can't stay here for a long time."
Ye Feng and Adili said goodbye to Zhamuhe and others, got into the carriage and left.
Zhamuhe looked at the carriage going away, and his expression returned to clarity. He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the direction in which the carriage was going. He combed his beard with the index finger and thumb of his right hand from the center of the body to both sides, and then stroked the beard on his chin downwards.
The next day, Zhada and Zhahe went to the palace with several nobles and persuaded King Qiemo to execute the auxiliary princes. Zhada promised these nobles to divide the auxiliary princes' property, and these nobles were naturally happy to see this happen.
In the end, King Qiemo was forced to order the execution of the auxiliary prince and the confiscation of his family property. But unexpectedly, Adili took Guli away in advance. This news made Zhada furious. He tried hard to promote this matter but did not get any benefits, so his efforts were in vain.
One game.
Afterwards, Adili arranged for someone to bury the auxiliary prince, which earned Adili praise from other nobles.
Adili's carriage stopped at Shen Xi's residence, and Adili took the two Qiemo women to Ye Feng's tent.
Ye Feng was collecting dried gunpowder powder. Ye Feng made some drop-shaped clay pots with one end big and one small, as big as the palm of your hand. The walls of the pots were not only made of soil, but also mixed with some hard stones.
Then the gunpowder was wrapped in thin sheepskin and put into the clay pot. There was a fuse at the opening of the sheepskin, which was then sealed and compacted with clay. The opening of the sheepskin and the fuse were sealed outside for easy ignition.
It looked a bit like the land mine made by the Guwa Nationalist Militia during the Second Axis War. Ye Feng called the clay pot grenade he made. Ye Feng was afraid of causing chaos and did not test this grenade in the city.
Ye Feng made a backpack and put the clay pot grenade into the backpack. Of course, there was a lot of sheepskin and plant ash in the middle of the clay pot grenade for isolation to avoid collision or damage.
Ye Feng used the remaining gunpowder and clay pots to make some fireworks bottles. When lit, the clay pots would not explode but would only spray fireworks.
At this time, Adili entered Ye Feng's tent with two Qiemo women. Before he entered, he said, "Brother Ye Feng, are you there?"
Ye Feng saw that the person who came was Adili and said, "Brother Adili, how come you have time to come to my place?" Seeing that Adili brought a woman, he said embarrassedly: "My place is very messy and I haven't had time to clean it up. In fact, I usually She loves to be clean and tidy.”
Adili ignored what Ye Feng said, because he was used to the messiness of Ye Feng's place. Adili pulled the Qiemo woman and said, "Brother, you don't have a wife yet. I will give you one."
Ye Feng just drank the water and spit it out, choking and coughing.
Adili patted Ye Feng on the back and said, "Be careful, don't be anxious."
Seeing Ye Feng finish coughing, he continued: "Come and see, this is the most beautiful beauty in Qiemo. I think you are the only one worthy of her in Qiemo, and she is the only one worthy of you, brother Ye Feng, in Qiemo."
Ye Feng looked up and saw a little girl in her teens. She looked at Adili doubtfully and said to herself: "Is this the kind of aesthetic that people in Qiemo have?"
Seeing Ye Feng's doubts, Adili turned around and found that he had pulled the wrong person, pulling Gu Li's personal maid over. So he pushed the maid out embarrassedly and pulled Gu Li in again.
Ye Feng saw this Qiemo woman, and she was indeed a beautiful woman. The reason why beauties from the Western Regions are so beautiful is that they are a mixture of yellow and white people.
This woman is a mixed-race beauty, with fair skin, dark hair, big eyes and double eyelids. This is different from the Han people of this period, who mainly had red and phoenix eyes, and later mixed with other ethnic groups to have double eyelids.
This woman's eyes were still full of tears as she had just cried, which made people feel even more pity for her. Her long eyelashes fluttered as if she could talk, like a fox demon that could seduce people's souls, attracting people to be obsessed with her.
Ye Feng looked a little crazy and said to himself: "p, p, p."
Adili didn't hear clearly and said: "No, I just put it outside. It's been a while. Does it still smell?" After saying that, Adili went out again before coming back. He also smelled the smell on his body to confirm that there was no smell.
Adili saw that Ye Feng was still watching stupidly, so he poked Ye Feng with his finger and said, "Brother Ye Feng? How about it? Can I give it to you as your wife?"
Ye Feng replied as if he was lost: "Okay."
Adili said: "I won't delay you anymore, let's go first."
Adili smiled and left the tent, thinking not to talk about him. It was almost the same when he saw Guli for the first time. If he didn't like the widow and she was the daughter of his old friend, how else could he be willing to give it to her?
Ye Feng.
Adili walked some distance away before Ye Feng realized what he was doing. Ye Feng hurriedly ran out to catch up with Adili and said, "Brother Adili, what's going on? Let's explain it clearly before we leave."
Adili asked doubtfully: "What's wrong, brother Ye Feng, have you regretted it? Are you dissatisfied?"
Ye Feng said anxiously: "How is that possible?" He felt a little out of control and coughed lightly to regain his composure.
He said calmly: "No, that's not the case. Where did this woman come from? Why did she give her to me as my wife?"
Adili said: "This is the daughter of the Marquis of Fuguo, named Guli. Yesterday I went to ask the king to betroth her to you. The king thought that you had made a contribution in General Zuo's case and agreed to my request. This child Guli is filial and virtuous.
, is a rare good child, I watched her grow up. I believe that big brother, it is right to marry her."
Ye Feng said: "That's not the case. How could it be sent back and forth like this? The two parties have no emotional foundation at all." Ye Feng was still unable to adapt to the marriage concepts of this era, so he was a little at a loss.
Adili pulled Ye Feng aside and whispered: "His father has been executed. You know that the beast was thinking about Gu Li. Such a good girl would be destroyed if he fell into his hands."
Adili patted Ye Feng on the shoulder and said earnestly: "Brother Ye Feng, I think you are a trustworthy person. I entrust my niece to you. You can take her to Dazhou."
Ye Feng learned that Adili sent Guli here to help her avoid Zha. Thinking about such a good girl, if she fell into the hands of Zha, it would be unacceptable to have such an ending.
So he patted his chest and said, "Seeing how beautiful she is, no, seeing how pitiful she is. Well, I'll take her in first."
At this time, Ye Feng heard a popping sound inside the tent, and Ye Feng hurriedly said, "No," and hurried back to the tent.
Adili stayed on the spot and said nonchalantly: "How come this little girl is more angry than me? Huh? No, brother Ye Feng, the smell hasn't dissipated yet. Is it possible that brother Ye Feng is so good at this?"
It turned out that Gu Li was curious about the grenade in the basket on Ye Feng's back, so she picked it up and took a look. Since it was dark inside the tent, she planned to hold the grenade close to the oil lamp to take a closer look, but she accidentally set off the fuse.
Fortunately, this one was originally made of the bottom layer of gunpowder, which was not yet dry, so it did not explode. However, the black smoke spewed out gave Guli a big black face.
When Ye Feng entered the tent and saw this situation, he couldn't help but laugh and said: "Hey, the smoky makeup is good, let's stick to this look from now on."
Ye Feng went out and bought a tent and some daily necessities to settle Guli down.
Ye Feng exchanged a bunch of jewelry for some gold, and gave a jade pendant to Gu Li as a meeting gift. In fact, beauties prefer jewelry, and they only give jade pendants to men. But Ye Feng is a straight man, so he can give it to him who looks good.
Which one.
After a few days, Mrs. Shen's tomb was almost completed. Shen Xi ordered people to carry Mrs. Shen's coffin to Mrs. Shen's cemetery.
Ye Feng and Adili also followed the team, because they were afraid that the guards and servants brought by people to rob the tomb were people Shen Xi and Adili knew and trusted. Ye Feng did not bring Gu Li because he was afraid that she would be hurt by the scene. After all, she had not yet Coming through the grief of losing my father.
It took most of the day for everyone to walk into the mountains, and the place was already deserted. In fact, during this period, the ancient Wa people generally chose tombs in the plains, which was different from later generations who chose tombs in the mountains, but the Feng Shui views were probably similar.
