Chapter 166 Observing the sentiments of the people 2
Chang Yixiao suddenly looked confused, shook his head hurriedly and said: "Concubine Yun, I'm sorry, things are not what you imagined."
Seeing his nervous look, which was actually a bit cute, Yun Yun pursed her lips and said with a straight face: "If it's not like this, what else could it be? Could it be that I have wrongly blamed you?"
"The little ones don't dare"
"You clearly knew that the emperor stayed up all night last night, and you still persuaded him to go out to play. What crime do you deserve?" At this point, Yun Yun secretly turned his eyes to Shao Yan, only to see him with his hands behind his back and his eyes looking straight at the pavilion.
Inside, there was an innocent face that I didn't know about, and it looked so angry and funny. It was pitiful that Chang Yixiao had to bear all the 'crimes' for no reason.
"The state has its own laws, and every family has its own rules. If someone comes, pull Chang Yixiao down and give him thirty military sticks."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of footsteps coming from under the pavilion. Several soldiers came up and pulled Chang Yixiao to go out. Chang Yixiao shouted that he was wronged, but this kid kept his mouth shut and never betrayed him from beginning to end.
'Master, this made Shao Yan admire him very much, so he waved the soldiers to retreat, came to Yunyun, and said with a smile: "Yunyun, don't be angry, he is still a child, how can he stand the thirty soldiers?"
Stick? I think it will be waived. Otherwise, I promise you to go back and rest first, and we will talk about the rest later. What do you think?"
"I just hope that the emperor can put the dragon body first. Now that the overall situation is uncertain, the emperor must not underestimate the tiger and wolf warriors outside the city. If something goes wrong, how do you want me to explain to the civil and military ministers?" Yunyun knew that he
After all, he couldn't resist the emperor, so he had to make a concession: "If the emperor really wants to go out for a walk, it's not impossible, but you have to agree to my concubine's request."
"What's the request? Tell me quickly." Shao Yan asked urgently.
Yunyun's pretty face sank, she looked down at her legs and sighed: "I'm afraid I can't protect the emperor like this. For the sake of the emperor's safety, I asked the emperor to dress up before going out."
Damn, have you made a mistake? Do I still need to put on makeup like this? Wherever I go, there is an out-and-out businessman, Shao Yan, shaking his clothes and saying proudly: "This is unnecessary, I am wearing this outfit now."
The clothes are very plain, I believe not many people will recognize her. Besides, no matter how much makeup I put on, I still can't change my handsome face, what do you think?"
"No, if the emperor does not agree to my request, I cannot let you go." After saying that, Yun Yun leaned his whole body against the guardrail of the stairs, which made the originally narrow stairs even narrower.
This girl has such a stubborn temper that Shao Yan ordered her to have no choice but to reluctantly accept her request. The girl naturally became a 'makeup artist'
After a while, Shao Yan changed from a young man to a middle-aged man with a full beard. Although he was dissatisfied with this look, since it was the fruit of such labor, he had no choice but to swallow it.
pharynx
Walking on the street, there was no smile on Shao Yan's face. In the past, he could still use his handsome face to wink at and whistle at the little girls he passed by.
Most of the time, there will be some screams of nymphomaniacs, but now it's better, just like a peasant who hides when women see women.
Day, this girl made me look so ugly. Is she afraid that I would flirt with women outside? If this is the case, then she is too naive. As long as she has money these days, there is nothing she can't buy? Shao Yan suddenly remembered that she used to
The scene of the leisure shop on the roadside. At that time, there was an alley full of such women's shops. The women were dressed hotter than the last, especially the looming pair of stockings, which made him fascinated, and every time he passed by there.
They will all be pulled in, and every time it goes in hard and comes out soft.
Alas...the past and present are different. I didn't expect that being an emperor would have so many constraints. I had known better to be a commoner. But then again, this girl doesn't have the thoughts of other women. She
This was also done for the sake of my safety. Thinking of this, Shao Yan sighed earnestly, and then continued to move forward with his head buried.
Chang Yixiao almost received thirty military sticks just now, and he still hasn't recovered yet. Fortunately, the emperor stepped forward in time, otherwise his butt would have to bloom. Before leaving, he repeatedly told him to protect the emperor.
So he was particularly concerned this time. As long as someone looked at Shao Yan one more time, he would glare at that person hard. Those hostile eyes seemed to say, what are you looking at? If you dare to look at me again, be careful with me.
Gouge your eyes out
Naturally, people would not argue with a child. They would just treat him as a little nervous and laugh along. Shao Yan was made to laugh and cry by his silly expression several times.
The two of them were wandering around the street, often smiling with childish innocence. One moment they ran to the candied haws and drooled, the next moment they walked to the toy stall and stayed for a while, and the next moment they played with the little brothers and sisters on the roadside.
Shao Yan was not the case. He either visited shops or restaurants, or visited people's homes on the pretext of asking for a bowl of water. During this period, he intentionally or unintentionally asked them about some information. According to most people's reactions, Liang Jun occupied
Changqing City killed many unarmed people, which once aroused public resentment. Many men spontaneously organized to resist Liang Jun's exploitation. As a result, most of them were suppressed and killed. All the family members who participated in the riots did not end well. The men were
Sent to serve in the army, women sent to brothels to work as prostitutes
After visiting five or six shops and visiting more than a dozen households, Shao Yan only felt that his legs were a little sore, so he walked into a teahouse with Chang Yixiao. When the waiter saw that there were guests, he enthusiastically arranged the final arrangements for the two of them.
a table on the north side
During the dinner, Shao Yan took a sip of tea and suddenly heard two guests in the east, whispering while drinking tea. Shao Yan had an extraordinary ear and quickly heard the content of their conversation.
"Zhang Yuanwai, I heard that the battle last night was fought by the emperor himself. I wonder if it is true?"
"Of course it's true. Except for Mr. Li, your information is too limited. Who in the city doesn't know that the emperor used sky lanterns to sneak attack Liang Jun last night and beat Liang Jun to a complete defeat?"
"Oh, so you have met the current emperor?" Li Yuanwai asked in surprise.
"Look what you said, the emperor lives in the city, how can we commoners see it?" Zhang Yuanwai said with a smile.
"That's right, the emperor has been living in the palace for a long time. It's rare that he will go on an expedition in person this time." Li Yuanwai nodded and punched the table angrily: "If Nanliang Kingdom hadn't gone too far in bullying others, why would our emperor have to go on an expedition in person?"
"Yeah, it's strange that Guo Wei controlled the imperial expedition, which made the imperial army so empty. Liang Jun broke through several cities without any effort. In the final analysis, it was Empress Dowager Guo who was conniving with him. If not, the emperor would have killed him on the day he ascended the throne.
"
"Yes, otherwise how could there be a saying that 'the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics' since ancient times? In my opinion, Queen Mother Guo is the culprit for today's situation."
"It's this old woman"
"Hush!" The two foreign ministers were talking. The shopkeeper came over and gestured to them, saying softly: "Two guests, the emperor is in this city. We must not say this nonsense. Everyone knows our
The emperor is a filial son, if by any chance he hears you——” The shopkeeper looked around and stopped talking.
The two officers looked at each other and smiled, then picked up the tea cups and continued to sip the tea. Shao Yan was quite unhappy in his heart. Thinking about it carefully, although the words of these two people were a bit extreme, they also made some sense. If Guo Wei hadn't grabbed it with one hand,
With military power, the defense power of Donglin Kingdom will definitely not be what it is now, at least it will not be so vulnerable.
"I heard that Liang Jun's general Tu An was caught. I wonder what the emperor has decided to do with him this time?" The two officials drank a few cups of tea and began to change the topic.
"Needless to say, it must have been divided into pieces."
"Divide the body into pieces with five horses? No, this general who massacred the great general is no better than Jin Dingguo. He doesn't seem to have killed anyone."
"That's just because you don't know. This guy looks the same on the surface, but he has a different plan behind his back. If we really compare him, he is more hateful than Jin Dingguo."
"So that's the case, then this guy named Tu should die."
…
The conversation never stopped, and Shao Yan had no patience to listen anymore. After paying for the tea, he walked out of the teahouse with Chang Yixiao. Along the way, he thought about the conversation between the two people as he walked. As the man said, "Tu An is not better than me."
"Jin Dingguo, it seems he didn't kill anyone." This sentence fully shows that this guy has a good reputation among the people. If he is executed abruptly, some people will be disappointed, but if such a person is retained, he will undoubtedly be raising a tiger.
Because of the danger, we have to be cautious in dealing with Tu An.
The two of them walked back along the street and unknowingly came to the two fortune-telling stalls. The white-bearded old man, known as the 'demigod', saw someone passing by and asked by the way: "Are these two guests here to tell fortunes?"
"
Another old man with a long beard was not to be outdone. He pointed at the sign that said, "You can know the past and the future."
No money required”
Shao Yan secretly laughed, these two people are quite interesting. They know that they are like enemies, but they still put the stalls together. Are they blatantly showing off their abilities to each other, or do they have other intentions? "Both of them are famous demigods in the city.
Since I'm passing by here, I would like to ask you two to divine the same hexagram for me. What do you think?"
The two old men said in unison: "Of course, sir, please tell us your birthday in Chinese characters."
Shao Yan was stunned for a moment, thinking that he was from a thousand years later, and his birth date was totally inconsistent with this era. If he had to say it out, it would scare the two old men half to death, so he said: "Really
To be honest, I can’t remember my birth date.”
"Ah?" the two old men exclaimed at the same time.
Seeing their embarrassed expressions, Shao Yan smiled and asked, "Two old gentlemen, is there any other way to calculate the numbers besides using the birth date and horoscope?"
"Yes, test the characters," the white-bearded old man said
"As long as Young Master writes a word on the paper, we will be able to find out the answer you want." Changxu said confidently.
Chang Yixiao on the side couldn't help but want to laugh. He never believed the words of these charlatans. Shao Yan also had a playful attitude. When he heard that the other party had the ability to detect words, his mind couldn't help but light up, and he instantly thought of the two words "Taiping"
Then I picked up the brush and wrote the word "太" on the white paper.
After the two old men saw each other, they said in unison: "What do you want to ask, Master?"
"Ask the world"
The white-bearded old man was reserved for a long time, frowned and said: "The word Tai is the big character with a dot below it, Prince, Queen Mother, Supreme Emperor..."
Seeing him mumbling words there, Shao Yan was confused. What is the prince and the queen? What is this and what? He thought he was really a demi-god, but at best he was a charlatan in sheep's clothing.
"If you add this point to the top -" As he spoke, the old man with a white beard used a brush to erase the dot under the word "太", and re-clicked on the upper right corner to form the word "dog"
"You're brave!" Chang Yixiao thought he meant to humiliate him and cursed.
The old man with a long beard smiled, pointed to the words on it calmly, and said: "The demi-god is right. The word Tai originally means nobility, but it can change its position accidentally. Have you ever heard of it?"
What is the saying, "A tiger falls in peace and is bullied by a dog?" He paused and then said: "I see that the young master is very majestic, but there is a trace of anger between his eyebrows. It is obvious that his identity is very unusual, but I still have something to tell you. The young master should be careful of the little ones these days.
