Father-in-law Zhu Di, I am so happy to marry the disfigured princess

Chapter 149 Assign tasks, meet love!Li Xiao went to brothels!
Under the escort of ten personal guards.

A group of people first went to the bank and exchanged the bank notes on their bodies for meeting tickets.

The so-called meeting ticket is equivalent to a passbook, which deposits money in the name of an individual.

Yangzhou is a rich and prosperous place, and there are branch villages of Dayin Village everywhere, which is quite convenient.

Several people left Yinzhuang and stood at the gate of Yinzhuang.

Looking at the signboard of the Yinzhuang, Li Xiao couldn't help but sigh with emotion, these Yinzhuangs are all run by Shanxi merchants, and the Yinzhuangs are really making money, not to mention that there is no interest on saving money, and they even charge for safekeeping.

40 taels of silver bills are deposited in, and the handling fee needs to be 400 taels of silver a year.
When I return to Beiping, I must dig a cellar in my mansion and store the silver in the cellar.

And the bank's business can also be done.
"Okay, then let's go back to the inn and put on a disguise, and then we will split up."

The group returned to the inn.

He changed his plain clothes and put on a fake beard, and his appearance changed.

After all, Li Xiao is considered a minor celebrity in Yangzhou now, and being recognized is not good for doing business.

Disguised, let's go!
The ten guards were divided into three.

Li Xiao arranged four guards for Zhu Ningyun.

Her job was transportation, mainly after the rescue was completed, she hid the women in a grain cart and left Yangzhou City.

In addition, the other people in the inn also need her to settle down and lead them on board in advance.

When the rescue is complete, leave the city gate and go straight to the pier to board the boat and escape all night!

The three guards were assigned to Zhu Gaoxu, responsible for investigating the rescue location, that is, the layout of the dental clinic and the guarding situation.

The three guards gave Zhu Gaosui secretly purchased hidden weapons, so they could not reveal their identities.

There are five gates in Yangzhou City, namely: Haining Gate (Dadong Gate), Tongsi Gate (West Gate), Anjiang Gate (South Gate), Zhenhuai Gate (North Gate), and Xiaodong Gate.

Li Xiao himself took Li Xiongzhi to wander around the city gates.

See if there is a chance to bribe the defender.

Not far from the east gate of Yangzhou.

A tea shop with a few small tables outside.

Li Xiao was sitting here drinking tea, but his eyes were fixed on the guards at the city gate in the distance.

From morning to night, Li Xiao finally figured out the rules of rotation.

Three shifts, every four hours, the soldiers will rotate once.

Perhaps it is because Yangzhou City is relatively prosperous, and the city gates are closed only at Youshi (06:30), which is a bit different from Beiping, where the city gates are closed at Shenshi ([-]:[-] p.m.).

Just keep waiting patiently.

When he was free, Li Xiao thought about the situation of Fengyoujing, looked at Li Xiongzhi and said, "Xiaozhi, how is the research on the formula of Fengyoujing between you and that old man Li Kefang?"

Li Xiongzhi replied: "Don't tell me, the old man really has some skills. The guards have a headache and hot head, and the old man's medicine is cured. There is also a person who has a hidden disease and has been cured."

"Nonsense, of course I know that old man is powerful, otherwise I would accept him as a disciple?"

Li Xiao said unhappily: "Ask you about the formula, don't talk nonsense."

Li Xiongzhi smiled, picked up the teapot and poured Li Xiao a cup of tea, and then reported:

"The old man Li Kefang is researching the formula every day now, and I will help him buy the medicine. The medicinal materials in Yangzhou City are all available, and they are all bought. Half of the research has been made. It is estimated that it will be ready in ten days and a half months. "

Li Xiao nodded: "You help him well, and when we return to Beiping, the medicine business will be handed over to you and Li Kefang."

Hearing this, Li Xiongzhi was overjoyed: "Okay Brother Xiao, I will definitely do a good job."

"Ah."

Li Xiao patted Li Xiongzhi on the shoulder: "Work hard, I won't treat you badly."

chat room,
Another hour passed.

The guard changed again.

If nothing else, this group of guards should still be them at this time tomorrow.

"He has a heart."

As soon as Li Xiao used his Xintong, the owner of the tea shop came over and shouted:
"Gentlemen, you have been sitting here for a whole day, and you only drank a pot of tea and ate two cakes. We are closing now."

Li Xiao was so annoyed that he slapped a golden bean on the table.

This golden bean was exchanged by Zhu Gaoxu for silver.

I changed a lot and stuffed a bag for Li Xiao.

After accepting the golden beans, the latter immediately shut up and returned to the shop. Even if he stayed until tomorrow morning, the boss would probably not make a fuss.

"He understands!"

Li Xiao's target was on the guard general.

After listening for a long time, I didn't hear any useful news.

The gate of the city has been closed, and these guard soldiers are bored standing guard.

Everyone was dumbfounded, without any thoughts in their minds.

After years of guarding the city gate, it seems that he has practiced the skill of being in a daze.

And it should be, otherwise they would be boring.
"It can't go on like this"

Li Xiao looked at Li Xiongzhi, "Xiao Zhi, go to the city gate for a while and throw a piece of silver out to see their reaction."

"it is good."

Li Xiongzhi asked with some doubts: "Is this really useful?"

He sat with Li Xiao for a whole day, and his butt hurt a little.

"Just go if you're told, there's so much nonsense here. I can tell how greedy they are by their expressions," Li Xiao said.

"Brother Xiao, do you still have this ability? Then see if I am greedy for money."

Li Xiao kicked Xiaozhi's ass, "You are the most greedy."

"Hey hey hey"

Li Xiongzhi patted his buttocks, and walked towards the gate of the city.

Walking in front of the city gate, Li Xiongzhi changed his expression, bowed his body and said with a flattering smile: "Guys, can you please let me go out to the city gate? There is an urgent matter! My mother died and I have to go back Tribute."

"Go, go, the city gate is closed, and no one is allowed to enter or exit."

The general guarding the gate said coldly: "If you want to leave the city gate, come tomorrow morning."

"My lord, be accommodating."

Li Xiongzhi took out a piece of silver and handed it over.

The guard general took it with his hand and stuffed it into his arms, "Give these to our brother for a drink tomorrow."

Li Xiongzhi asked weakly: "Then can I leave the city?"

The general defending the city frowned: "Out of the city? Good idea, we don't want our heads?"

Li Xiongzhi stretched out his hand, "Return the silver to me."

The general who defended the city chuckled: "What taels of silver? Have you seen it?"

The rest of the defenders shook their heads, expressing that they hadn't seen anything.

Damn it, the officers and soldiers of Yangzhou City don't do anything when they take money. Li Xiongzhi cursed in his heart, then turned around and left.

When leaving, Li Xiongzhi followed Li Xiao's request and quietly dropped an ingot of five taels of silver onto the ground.

The soldiers defending the city held their breath, and no one said anything.

When Li Xiongzhi walked away, the city guard general Mimi smiled, picked up the silver, and stuffed it into her bosom.

The other soldiers could only stare blankly and swallowed
at the same time.

Li Xiao has been using his heart to aim at the general defending the city from afar.

His voice is as follows:

【Haha, here comes a fool to send money to my grandfather. 】

[One tael of silver, I want to go out of the city gate, you are thinking of farting, even if you give me 100 taels, I will not dare to open the door. 】

【Hehe, this kid is quite rich. When he leaves, pick up the money and it will be mine.】

【Beautiful, listen to the music tomorrow.】

After listening to these heartfelt voices, Li Xiao supported his forehead with black lines all over his head.

It seems that the soldiers at this city gate are too cunning, so they can only change one place.

"Brother Xiao, the soldiers at this city gate are very thieves. If they don't do anything with money, I'm afraid it won't work."

Li Xiongzhi walked back, cursing in broken thoughts.

"I found it too, let's change it."

There was no other way, so Li Xiao had no choice but to take Li Xiongzhi to another city gate.

That's it.

Li Xiao rode a fast horse and kept changing the city gates.

West Gate, South Gate, North Gate.

At each city gate, Li Xiao repeated his old tricks, releasing Li Xiongzhi to lose money, and then listened to his heart.

But the result is the same, these guards are greedy for life and afraid of death, and they are very cunning.

You give him money and he takes it.

But let him open the city gate, he will never open it.

They all understand the same truth, that if you have money, you have to spend your life.

In a blink of an eye, the four main city gates were all checked, and Li Xiao was speechless, with nothing to gain.

"Could it be that this rescue operation is doomed to fail?"

Helpless, Li Xiao had no choice but to go to the last city gate, Xiaodongmen.

This gate is a little special. It belongs to a small gate two miles away from the east gate. It is said that it is mainly used to transport grain.

Repeat the trick again.

After Li Xiongzhi dropped the money, the city guard also picked up the money calmly.

However, Li Xiao heard a different voice this time.

[Have money?Pick it up later]

【Hey, there are only five taels of silver, plus these five taels of silver, I only saved 30 taels of silver.】

[Only in the year of the monkey and the month of the month can I redeem my beloved girl Ruyu from Jinmeilou. 】

【To redeem Miss Ruyu, there is still more than 500 taels of silver.】

【If I can redeem Ruyu to be with her for the rest of my life, I am willing to die for Ruyu.】

【I picked up five taels of silver, let's go see Ruyu tomorrow.】

After reading these voices.

Li Xiao called it a good guy!

This Jinmeilou is probably a brothel.

This Ruyu girl should be a brothel girl.

You just wanted to go to the brothel as soon as you picked up the money, no wonder you couldn't save the ransom.
However, the saying that he is willing to die for "Ruyu" is true.

Because this is the voice of the heart, the voice of a person's heart, and it cannot be faked.

Li Xiao originally thought that the plot was to meet a dutiful son whose mother was seriously ill and short of money, and then Li Xiao took out the money, and the other party opened the city gate for his mother.

As a result, the filial son did not meet, but the infatuated son did.

Just wait, I'll go and help you redeem Miss Ruyu back!!
"Brother Xiao."

Li Xiongzhi walked back and said, "It's not good, the guards at the five city gates seem to be useless. Where should we go next?"

Li Xiao stood up, smiled and said, "Let's go to Jinmeilou."

"Jinmei Building?"

Li Xiongzhi was taken aback, and then said in surprise: "That's a brothel. Before we finish our business, we went to the brothel and the princess knew about it. I'm fine. What can you do?"

During this time, when Li Xiongzhi had money, he liked to go to brothels when he had nothing to do.

"Huh? How do you know that Jinmeilou is a brothel?"

Li Xiao asked strangely, "Have you been there?"

"Hey hey hey"

Li Xiongzhi smiled: "I'm not married, I always need something. Oh. I understand, the Princess has never given it to you"

"What am I"

Li Xiao was a little annoyed, and patted him on the head, "Stop talking nonsense, let me ask you, is there a girl named Ruyu in Jinmeilou?"

"Yes, I have."

Li Xiongzhi nodded and said: "That's the top card of Jinmeilou. It looks like a flower and jade, and it is very marked. It is said that it is a show rather than a body. Five taels of silver can only be talked for half an hour."

"but."

Li Xiongzhi changed the subject and said: "I spent some more money, and the other party let go. In fact, as long as the money is enough, 50 taels of silver can ecstasy for a night."

wipe.
Mingchao already has escort service?

If you spend more money, you can actually do that, and there is a way.

It is estimated that this girl can spend money to play with rich people.

For those who have no money, hang
It is an excuse to say that performing arts or not selling one's body is an excuse, so those who have no money believe it, and with the illusion of redemption, they often talk about five taels of silver, but in fact they will never get enough money to redeem themselves
High, really high!
"Go, lead the way." Li Xiao waved his hand.

"Brother Xiao, you really want to go." Li Xiongzhi said in surprise.

"Damn, I'm going to do business."

"Yes, yes, it's business."

"I'm not afraid of the slanting shadow, I'm afraid of a hair. God knows what happened tonight, or you will be finished!"

"okay."

Soon.

Li Xiao and the two came to Jinmeilou.

As soon as they arrived at the door, the bustard greeted them, but when they saw that the two were wearing common clothes, their expressions changed slightly.

Li Xiao changed his outfit today, and he really doesn't look like a rich man.

"My lord, please come inside."

The bustard still invited Li Xiao and the two of them in.

Although the poor are poor, they can squeeze out some oil and water.

As soon as he entered the door, Li Xiao smelled a perfume, which was pungent.

Then many Yingying Yanyan came over.

"Master, you are so handsome, come here, I won't charge you money, hehehe."

"Young master, it would be nice to recite poems with me."

"What a handsome son, let my sister kiss me."

Yingying and Yanyan were wearing revealing clothes, and their clothes were as thin as cicada's wings, and they all moved closer to Li Xiao.

Li Xiongzhi on the side thought, "It's really good to be handsome, but there are always free postings, if I order that free girl.
Seeing the woman from the brothel approaching, Li Xiao immediately took a step back to dodge, almost catching fire.

He was too lazy to talk nonsense, and said directly: "I want to order Miss Ruyu."

When these girls heard this, they immediately lost interest, their expressions changed, and they walked away twisting their waists.

"Yo, young master, you are really good at picking, Miss Ruyu is our number one here."

The old bustard sneered, obviously he didn't think Li Xiao could afford it.

"I'm ordering the number one card, let her come and see me." Li Xiao said.

"unfortunately."

The old bustard smiled and said, "Miss Ruyu has a guest today, you can change her."

Li Xiao took out a large ingot of silver ingot, "Can I see you now?"

The old bustard stared straight at him. He thought he was a poor boy, but unexpectedly he was a rich man.

She took the money, looked at Li Xiao, and then at Li Xiongzhi.

For wealthy customers, it is natural to remember their appearance so that they can greet them next time.

After looking at it, I remembered that Li Xiongzhi had visited not long ago, and he was quite generous.

It's just that I changed into commoner clothes today, so I didn't recognize it for a while.

"Yes, yes, it turns out that he is a friend of Master Li, of course it can be seen."

The old bustard beamed with joy and completely changed her posture.

"What Master Li?"

Li Xiongzhi didn't want to steal the limelight from his master, so he pretended to be displeased, then pointed to Li Xiao and said, "This is Master Li, I'm just a follower."

"Hey, you are Master Li, your honored guest, please come in quickly."

Speaking of which, the bustard brought Li Xiao into the private room, "Call Miss Ruyu here."

Then, he looked at Li Xiao and said, "Master Li, can I arrange some more girls for you?"

Li Xiao waved his hand: "No, I just want Ruyu."

"Good man"

The old bustard said in his heart, anyway, your money is in place, and I have made money by arranging a girl, but this habit.
She glanced at the two of them.

Two people order a girl, they can play.

Looks like Miss Ruyu is going to suffer tonight
Li Xiao and the two entered the room.

Li Xiongzhi said with some incomprehension: "Brother Xiao, I still haven't figured it out, we shouldn't be here to visit a brothel, otherwise why would the two order a girl?"

Now, Li Xiongzhi was completely confused.

Li Xiao said in a bad mood: "Nonsense, of course I didn't come to visit the brothel. I said to do business. You should also be a witness to me. I don't know how to do anything."

"Ah? It's not a business like this."

Li Xiongzhi asked strangely: "What business are you doing? Do you want to come here?"

Li Xiao had no choice but to explain: "This Ruyu is the concubine of the general guarding Xiaodongmen, and he wants to redeem her, understand?"

"So that's how it is. High"

Li Xiongzhi gave a thumbs up and flattered him: "Brother Xiao is amazing, as long as we redeem Ruyu's body, won't the city guards be left to us?"

"and many more."

Li Xiongzhi suddenly felt something was wrong, looked at Li Xiao and said, "Brother Xiao, how did you know about this?"

Li Xiao said: "I said it. Through facial expressions."

Li Xiongzhi: "????"

Through facial expressions, can you know who the other party's concubine is?
For a while, Li Xiongzhi felt that his head was not enough, and he was a little disconnected.

"Ruyu met Mr. Li"

At this time, Ruyu came in with a jug of wine and bowed politely.

Li Xiao frowned, this beauty is not good, she looks 27 or [-] years old, she is not as good as He Xiaoqian who escaped from the tooth shop because of the pink makeup on her face.

Just like this, how did the general who defended the city be willing to die?
Forget it, it's not my business
"Come and sit."

Li Xiao greeted.

Ruyu recognized Li Xiongzhi as a man who can afford it, sat down enchantingly, poured wine for the two of them, and then said tenderly: "If the two of you come together, you will have to pay more."

"." Li Xiao was a little speechless, and then asked, "Let me ask you a question."

"Is the young master here to have a heart-to-heart talk with the slave family? The slave family is a bit cold at night, how about you hugging the slave family?"

Ruyu doesn't want Fei Yang to just come and chat.

After all, chatting can only earn five taels of silver, which is not worthwhile. I just abandoned other customers to come here.

Li Xiao took out a money bag and threw out a golden bean.

"Wow"

Ruyu's eyes lit up immediately, she picked it up, bit it again, and then beamed with joy: "My lord, just ask what you want to ask, and you can tell me everything you want."

She thought to herself, today is really lucky, guest officials who eat vegetarian dishes are more generous than guest officials who eat meat.

Li Xiao said, "There is a general guarding the city at Xiaodongmen, do you know him?"

"Ah, that's the problem"

Ruyu lowered her eyebrows and said: "Our rules here are not to disclose the information of the guests at will."

pop
Li Xiao casually popped two golden beans from his fingers and landed on the table with a crisp sound.

Ruyu happily accepted it, and now that she has money, she can say anything.

"My lord, the guard of the little east gate is named Lin Ren. He sees the slave family once a month, and he has already bowed down under my pomegranate skirt."

"It's not ridiculous for you to say that you want to redeem me."

"With his salary, he will never be able to redeem the servant's family in his whole life."

"He also said that he was willing to die for the slave family. Anyway, the slave family doesn't believe a word of these stinky men."

With a single brain, Ruyu said everything she knew.

Li Xiao thought in his heart, it should be almost there, this idiot is really willing to die for Ruyu. Of course, the other party doesn't believe it.
"My lord, is there anything else I want to ask?"

Ruyu stared at Li Xiao's purse with glowing eyes.

"Gone."

Li Xiao smiled and said, "I am willing to redeem you, are you willing?"

"what?"

Ruyu was obviously a little surprised, puzzled and said: "Young master, you and I have only met for the first time, why are you willing to redeem yourself for the servant's family?"

Li Xiao said: "There are not so many reasons, I just ask if you are willing."

Ruyu said: "If you want to redeem your slave's body, you will spend a lot of money."

Li Xiao smiled and said: "I have money, don't worry about it, after the redemption, you will be free."

Ruyu didn't believe it: "How is this possible?"

Li Xiao said: "You only need to say yes, and I will redeem you now. Why did you lie to me?"

After hearing this,

Seeing that the other party was not joking, Ruyu put away her charming posture and became more serious.

She hesitated for a long time before shaking her head, as if recalling the past:
"Young master's kindness, my family appreciates it. In fact, I don't want to leave here."

"The slave family was originally a thin Yangzhou horse that was raised in captivity. It was sold to a wealthy family as a concubine at the age of 14. I thought I could live my whole life."

"I didn't expect the master to sell me like an animal to a brothel after he was too old to be useful."

"Nowadays, the slave's family is in ruins, and most of the money earned goes into the pocket of the bustard. Even if I leave here, where can I go to make a living?"

This is the status quo of most brothel women.

In this ancient time, they belonged to the humble family. Even if they left here, they would not be able to survive without money.

Therefore, most women can only accept their fate and spend their entire lives in brothels.

What a pity, this is the fate of Yangzhou Shouma.

Li Xiaodao: "After I redeem you, I will give you another sum of money, 500 taels of silver, to find a place, buy a house, find an honest man, enough for you to live for the rest of your life, how about it?"

500 taels of silver, free and carefree for the rest of my life.

Li Xiao doesn't believe that Ruyu is not tempted, it's not a last resort, who wants to be here?

"500 taels of silver??"

Ruyu's heart was thumping, and she asked in disbelief, "Master, why did you do this?"

Li Xiao said: "Of course there are prerequisites. I need you to do something for me. After the task is completed, I will give you a silver tael. You can leave this sad place."

"What is it? Is it dangerous?"

Ruyu was a little moved.

Li Xiao shook his head: "For you, there is no danger. But for the Lin Ren you mentioned, it is very dangerous, but he is willing to die for you, and this matter should be possible."

"Lin Ren."

Ruyu thought for a while, thinking of the position of the other party, her face changed: "You want to go out of the city gate at night?"

Li Xiao nodded.

Ruyu frowned and said, "It's impossible, I don't believe that Lin Ren is willing to do such a thing for a brothel girl like me, it's a crime of beheading."

Li Xiaodao: "Whether you succeed or not, I will give you the money, and you are not in danger. The bet is on us, not you. If the other party is willing to do such a dangerous thing for you, then congratulations, I believe you should find If Lin Ren survives, you can find a place to spend the rest of your life together."

After listening, Ruyu froze.

This temptation is too big for Ruyu.

If he succeeds, he can redeem himself and still have 500 taels of silver, which is enough to live for the rest of his life.

If that Lin Ren is really willing to die for him, then he is willing to be with him.

If you fail, you will still gain benefits without any loss.

Thinking of this, Ruyu nodded and said:
"Young master, I am willing! Please help me redeem myself"

"I've had enough of staying here."
