Chapter 138 II 3. Emperor's Village of Strong Golden Soup
Several yamen servants came to drive Tian Erya away.

Tian Erya wanted to see Zheng Yuansheng go farther and farther, so she couldn't help crying: "My lord, folk girls only wear wedding dress once in their life, please do me a favor, let me meet Zheng Yuansheng and say a few words! "

"Bold girl, you are shouting and disturbing the order here. The court has already tolerated you without convicting you. Don't mess around here, step back immediately."

"My lord, there is a custom among the people that a bride cannot retreat when she gets married. Please hold your hand high and give the women a little time."

Seeing the people and prisoners around him turning their heads to the rear, Dorobeile couldn't help pulling his horse back with a look of emotion on the faces of the guards behind him.

The officers and soldiers who blocked Tian Erya knelt down when they saw him coming.

Dorobelle rode on the horse and looked down, with murderous eyes in his eyes: "Who? How dare you interfere with Benbele's official duties?"

"My lord." Tian Erya seemed to see hope, she bowed her head, "My lord, the girl wants to see the prisoner Zheng Yuansheng, and have a few words with him alone, my lord..."

"Presumptuous!" Dorobeile yelled angrily, "Is it true that you see the prisoner whenever you want? Come, someone, take down this woman who disturbed the official duties, and give her a hard blow of [-] slaps."

"Slow!" Tongbat shouted, and rushed forward.

"It turned out to be Lieutenant Tong." Dorobeile saw him taunting, "Tongbat, you have been demoted by the imperial court to be a rank-[-] military official, but you dare to speak nonsense in front of Benbele, what should you do?"

"Dorobelle, it's not that I'm admonishing you, but that it's really inappropriate for your lord to severely punish this woman."

"What does this woman have to do with you?"

Tong Bat stood with his head held high: "It's nothing to do. I don't want to see a woman be severely punished by adults for sending her husband off because of love and righteousness."

Dorobelle laughed: "It turns out that you are in love with the scene. Seeing other women being passionate, and then thinking of your Fujin arguing with you because of your poor job. It's not a good feeling at first."

Tong Bate gritted his teeth. When he was in the capital, the two families did not deal with each other.He was a few years younger than Dorobelle, and he usually looked down upon this guy who was also favored by the family but not reused by the court, but he did not expect to be ridiculed by him today.

"Accordingly, we are both relatives of the emperor. Since you open your mouth, I have to give you this face. But." Dorobeile's voice changed, "there are dozens of prisoners, if their families all come to carry out, it will delay Time, didn’t you miss the court’s errand? Master Tong, I’m sorry. Pull this woman who is in the way. "

"Master Belle." Zhou Changkui came out, bowed and said: "The girl is right, the bride cannot back down when she gets married, please forgive them for a moment, let the husband and wife meet."

Dorobeile was furious: "Well, you Zhou Changkui, I know that your Armed Forces Academy has made great contributions to the procurement of weapons and has been rewarded by the emperor. However, the emperor ordered me to supervise the scientific examination fraud case, do you dare to resist?

"I don't dare to be humble. I just heard that the local custom is that on the day of marriage, the bride is the biggest. If you meet a bride on the road, the official sedan chair must also give way, otherwise, the road ahead will not be smooth."

Dorobeile frowned, and asked Tongbat, "Does this custom exist locally?"

"I came here for a short time as magistrate, so I was demoted. I don't know. However, I heard that Lord Kangxi made a private visit to Jiangnan Weifu a few years ago. When he met the bride's sedan chair, he immediately asked the soldiers to divert."

Seeing the people talking about it, Dorobeile was also afraid that others would say that he was unreasonable, so he took the opportunity to give him a glance: "Since you know about this, why didn't you say it earlier?"

"I thought you knew."

Dorobeile's face changed, Tong Bat's words made him not close and ignorant with the royal family.He suppressed his anger and pointed at Tian Erya: "That bride, seeing that you are affectionate and righteous, I am deliberately magnanimous. Let you go to see Zheng Yuansheng, and speak quickly if you have something to say."

"Thank you, sir." Tian Erya was overjoyed, pushed away the servant and rushed to Zheng Yuansheng's side.

Zheng Yuansheng saw Tian Erya standing in front of him, opened his mouth speechless, tears fell first.

Tian Erya touched the shackles on Zheng Yuansheng's neck, saw that his feet were tied with iron chains, his skin was worn out, and she shed tears in distress: "You have suffered, Fourth Young Master"

Zheng Yuansheng said with a trembling voice: "I am no longer the fourth young master of the Zheng family, you should leave immediately."

"I won't go. It doesn't matter if you are the fourth young master of the Zheng family or not. In my eyes, you are my husband-in-law, Zheng Yuansheng." Tian Erya tugged at the red wedding dress on her body, "Look, this is what you did for me. I put on my customized wedding dress."

Zheng Yuansheng saw that she was wearing a fine silk red wedding dress on the upper body and a red coarse cloth skirt on the lower body, and understood that the deposit he paid that day was only enough to make a top, and the skirt must have been sewn by Erya herself.He wanted to reach out to touch it, but immediately retracted it like a thorn, his eyes were indifferent and desperate: "I have been exiled to Ninggu Tower, and I am a slave. I may not come back. Our marriage agreement has no meaning. You just pretend that you never knew each other. My man, start your own life anew."

"I will wait for you here for as long as you have been in exile."

"Don't be stupid. Do you know the environment of the place where I was assigned? Ninggu Pagoda is a place of bitter cold, and the conditions are extremely harsh. It is a long way from here. It takes three or four months to walk there. Many people suffer from hunger on the road. Even if we get to Ningguta by chance, we will be slaves to the armored men, do hard labor, work hard every day, have no food, no clothes, no freedom, no dignity , being insulted by others. Armored men can also deprive us of our lives at will. I have no future, why should you be with someone like me whose life is difficult to save."

Tian Erya was impatient, and shouted loudly: "Isn't it just sent to Ninggu Pagoda? Look at your potential, why don't you come back crying and crying?"

"Erya?" Zheng Yuansheng was stunned, and forgot to wipe away the tears that fell.

"No matter how bad the climate and environment of Ninggu Pagoda is, there are still people living in it. Others can survive, but you can't? I checked in your teacher's study for a long time last night, and I finally know what kind of place Ninggu Pagoda is. It It is the place where the great-grandfather of Emperor Taizu of the Qing Dynasty lived, and the great-grandfather of Emperor Taizu

He gave birth to six sons who all lived there.A scholar wrote that Ninggu Pagoda is "Looking at Changbai in the south, winding around the Longjiang River in the north, the heroic district of Yunbian City, and the emperor's place of Zhuangjin Tang." It was the blessed land of the Qing Dynasty, and the princes and nobles lived there before. You can't be like them. Do you stay the same? "

Zheng Yuansheng murmured: "Looking at Changbai in the south, circling the Longjiang River in the north, the Xiong District of Yunbian City, and the emperor's village of Zhuangjintang. Have you memorized such difficult words?"

"That's right! I have to know what kind of place you are allotted to me? I think that since some people praise it as a good place, it must not be useless. It's so bad that people can't stay there any longer."

Zheng Yuansheng was still desperate: "Even if I can endure it, so what? Those of us who have been degraded as slaves, even if we give birth to offspring, there is no way to change the fate of being slaves. For generations, we will be slaves of armored men. My name It is engraved on my ear, like a brand, which can never be wiped off."
