After stealing the divorce book, Princess Salted Fish fell off her horse

Zhuyuan County, a county town in the west of Yanzhou. There are mountains in the northwest of the county town. On the mountain, there are green pines and green bamboos, and the trees are shady. At the foot of the mountain, there are ridges of rice fields, flowers and trees, and the scenery is picturesque, with beautiful scenery and peaceful people.

There is a town at the foot of the mountain called Qingyu Town, where hundreds of families live. They work at sunrise and rest at sunset, living an ordinary and real life.

On the side of the official road at the east end of the town, there is a tavern and an attic.

There is a roof outside the tavern, made of green bamboo, even the tables and chairs in the shed are also made of green bamboo, the cost is not high.Sitting here and drinking, you have a wide view, a panoramic view of the mountains, and it is bright and transparent, which is very interesting

The owner of the tavern is a beautiful woman. When she smiles, even the most beautiful flowers in the mountains are not half as good as her.

The location of the tavern is good. Merchants from south to north come and go from the official road. Many people know the name of this tavern and come to have a drink.

The beautiful host does not entertain in person.

In the tavern, there are diligent clerks who run errands, and there are also slick shopkeepers sitting in charge.

Her favorite thing is to look at the distant scenery in the attic on the right side of the tavern, or to paint by the window.

Pick up the brush, sketch, and with just a few strokes, there will be a lifelike person who seems to be walking out of the portrait.A young man in a green shirt with a bright smile!

But when the painting was finished, she didn't keep it, and threw it into the tea-making stove nearby, letting the portrait melt into green smoke and fly away.

She smiled, looked at the green smoke, her eyebrows and eyes were curved, she was a bit mischievous in her tranquility, she smiled brightly, but her eyes were very lonely.

Every two months, someone would come on horseback from different directions on the official road and bring a thick account book.There were men and women, old and young, but everyone respected and respected the beautiful owner.

The beautiful owner has lived in it for three years.

On this day, a group of officials escorted a group of exiled prisoners past.

They also saw this tavern.

The journey was hard and dusty, and when the tavern appeared, the officials and prisoners were all overjoyed.

Thirsty and tired, I finally have a place to sharpen.

The officials ordered the prisoners to turn around and leave one guard, while the others walked into the wine shed.

The smell of wine made them very greedy, and the leader ordered ten altars in one go.

Instead, the person next to him reminded in a low voice: "Is there too many heads? If you get drunk, it's not a big deal to delay your schedule. If you have something to do, you will be in trouble!"

"Isn't it Crow's Mouth?" The leader glared at him: "Don't drink for a while, go and replace Wang Cheng!"

The man had no choice but to go out with a bitter face.

More than a dozen people were seated separately, two people were at a table, and the dishes were all braised beef, smoked chicken, peanuts, sauced pig's feet, and big white steamed buns!

It's not that the tavern is like this, but they control the budget by themselves, ordering these dishes that can eat and fill up, and there are oily and watery dishes.

Prisoners also have food, but only water and steamed buns.

They rushed from the capital to Jizhou, and they only walked halfway, and there was still halfway to go. They couldn't control the prisoners, but they couldn't starve their stomachs.

The leader took a sip of the wine, his eyes lit up immediately, he gulped down the bowl, then picked up the jar and poured it again.

This wine is so good, he plans to drink it along the way if he doesn't finish it in a while.

The leader seemed to be well-mannered, chatting and laughing with the crowd.

It turned out that this group of exiled prisoners belonged to the Tao family in the capital.

Tao Dun, the patriarch of the Tao family, had already been the Minister of Zhongshu from the third rank a few years ago. Later, his official career prospered, especially when Emperor Qiyuan came to the throne, he was promoted several ranks in a row.

He was originally a party member of the late emperor and empress. When the family of the first emperor and empress was ransacked and exterminated, he was able to escape unscathed. It was because he produced key evidence at a critical moment, not only cleared himself up, but also made meritorious service.

Emperor Qiyuan employs people, as long as they have the ability, they can be in power.He also ranks among the top ranks based on his political achievements.

Such a high-ranking official has already played a pivotal role in the court.

However, the people's hearts were not satisfied after all. This Tao Dun encircled a large area of ​​land in Yongzhou, raised private soldiers, and bought and sold official positions.

He's been stealthy, and he's always found good scapegoats.

But Emperor Qiyuan still found something wrong and asked Prime Minister Mingshuo to try the case himself.

For this reason, the Tao family even sent quack killers to assassinate Ming Shuo, and sent someone to destroy the evidence, but the Tao was one foot taller, and the devil was one foot taller. Although Ming Shuo was injured twice, the case was clearly investigated.

Tao Dun has already woven a net in the capital, involving many high-ranking officials in the DPRK and China.

Emperor Qiyuan was furious, and everyone ransacked their homes. Tao Dun and those who participated in the incident were directly beheaded, and the rest were exiled to remote areas.

These escort officers also hated the Tao family. The first major crime that shocked the world after Emperor Qiyuan came to power was committed by these people, and I don't know how many people were killed.

One altar per person, although it is a small altar of two catties, there are quite a few.

Halfway through the drink, there was a sudden sound of horseshoes, and on the official road to the east, more than a dozen fast horses came with whips, not only horses, but also carriages, and the momentum was very loud.

The leader of the guard raised his misty drunken eyes and said, "There are quite a lot of people here in this small place, no wonder there is such good wine!"

Whoosh...

Suddenly, the man on the horse drew his bow and set an arrow, and shot at the escorts in the shed.

These officers were drowsy from drinking, and they were a little confused about the situation.

Xiaoer was stunned and shouted loudly: "Wang Xiaoer!"

With this sound, the thick bamboo curtain on the ceiling suddenly fell down, blocking most of the arrows.

But some arrows still penetrated the bamboo curtain and shot into the shed.

A guard was hit by an arrow and screamed in pain.

The sudden change made these escorts wake up from their wine.

They hurriedly picked up their waist knives.

Through the gap, one could see that those people surrounded the prisoners outside, and someone was already unchaining the prisoners, and the one who advised them not to drink so much alcohol had already been chopped off by the other party.

The leader of the escort said slowly and startled: "They want to rob the prisoner!"

This sound was like a groundbreaking shock, and everyone was stunned immediately.

The errand and the shopkeeper looked at each other, as if they had received some gaze, the errand ran back like flying.

These errands were running around in a hurry, and all the wine was pouring out in cold sweat.

The escort lost the prisoner before reaching the boundary, so it can't be reported that all the prisoners died on the road, right?
Then when they go back, they will probably all die.

These errands are in a hurry.

Rush out, they dare not!

The other party rode a fast horse and came prepared. There were a large number of people and weapons in his hands. He was obviously a desperate person, or a martial artist with extraordinary skills.

Just let them take the prisoners away like this, they dare not.

Those people found the key from the messenger and unlocked all the chains of the Tao family. The leader bowed to a young woman in prison clothes and said, "Miss, my subordinates are late to rescue you, and you have suffered!"

The young woman turned pale and waved her hands: "Brothers, you have worked hard!"

"Miss, please get in the carriage!"

The carriage was empty, presumably for these helpless women here.

The leader glanced at the tavern, with a murderous look in his eyes, and ordered: "Kill them all."

This side story is a bit long, and I haven't finished it yet, so I will post these first, and the rest will be posted tomorrow after I finish writing.

There is another interesting thing. I remember that at the beginning of the book, everyone was scolding Chu Xinyuan, but after reading the episode, some people said that Chu Xinyuan’s ending was too miserable, so do you want him to die or live?If you want him to die, it’s fine. If you want him to live, I will mention it in the next episode as appropriate~
