Yipin Tianxia

(Happy weekend! The weather has been hot and cold recently, everyone should keep warm and don't catch a cold. :-) )

In Dongshi next to Huguo Temple, in a clothing store.

Nianfu pointed to a new set of shirts on the wall, and asked in disbelief, "It's only 20 taels for this dress? Or is it the cheapest?"

The guy had a smile on his face, and the service attitude was so good that he said, "Girl, you may be a newcomer and don't know the market in the capital. Our appearance is expensive and labor is expensive, so everything is more expensive than other places. But it is also worth the money. We The clothes in the store are all made of the latest and best materials, just this color, if you buy it home, you can guarantee that no one will make the same one as you within a year, and if you have it, just return it!"

This is really good at talking, traveling all the way to the capital just to return a piece of clothes?That's really crazy.

Going to look at the men's clothing section, Ouyang Kang came back with a blank expression, "Don't look, it's more expensive here."

Over there, women’s clothing still costs 20 taels, but a pair of shoes here costs 35 taels!Young Master Ouyang's heart was bleeding. Compared with this, the one tael of silver a box of rose facial cream in his hometown is nothing.No wonder the banknotes that his grandmother gave him were too few before he left. The prices in this capital are simply outrageously expensive!

Ouyang Kang quietly covered his chest, he was still reluctant to take out the kit that he kept next to his body.This little money is not only his, but also his grandmother's coffin.It hurts his heart to spend here.

"It's better to go back to my house." After returning home, Dad will always make them new clothes, right?

But Nianfu wanted to see her father, and they all went to the capital.She suddenly couldn't wait anymore.

"Maybe we came to the wrong place? Ask someone else, I don't believe it, the common people in the whole capital can afford clothes of 30 taels of silver."

After leaving the shop, the two were discussing how to inquire again, when suddenly they saw a commotion on the street.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way quickly! You will be blinded for a while, don't blame us for not reminding you if you are hurt!"

While speaking, seven or eight servants in green clothes rode tall horses with whips and rushed out like wolves to open the way.Behind them, there are two teams of guards in military uniform with top helmets and open guns.

The soldiers in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China were no different from those veteran soldiers of later generations. They were all fought out of the mountains of swords and blood.But the momentum is very compelling.Even their horses, with piercing, dark eyes, are menacing.

Don't look at Zixiao who is usually very proud, after all, it is a domestic pet. Seeing Brother Ma like this, he dare not move up.Instinctively, he cried out in a low voice.Pull the master straight back.

As soon as this group of soldiers came out, the people consciously crowded together against the wall.Make way for the spacious avenue in the middle, and wait for the main person behind to pass through.

Not long after, I saw someone sticking to the guard of honor, and two large carts with vermilion tops and canopies behind them came one behind the other.The car in front was pulled by five big horses, and the one behind was slightly smaller, but it also used a full four big horses.

Ouyang Kang whispered softly, "Such a family is either a duke or an uncle."

There is an old man who squeezes in the back.He should be a local, quite talkative, even if he was stopped here, he couldn't help but whisper a few words, "This is the carriage of the Pingguo Duke, and the small new car behind it should be newly sealed by the Pingguo Duke. The county lord. Speaking of which, the county lord is really a legend. He was just a beggar at first, but who knew that he was the eldest daughter of Lord Ping, who had been exiled among the people in the early years. One step to the sky!"

Someone nearby chimed in, "Today is the fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month, which is the Hungry Ghost Festival. It seems that the Duke of the State took her to burn incense and pray for blessings at the Huguo Temple. No wonder I passed by before and saw that the gate was sealed and no one was allowed to enter or leave. "

Hey, isn't that the real version of Little Swallow?Nianfu stretched his neck and waited to take a few more glances, the carriage passed by quickly, only the servant woman behind was distributing steamed buns, pastries and copper coins with a basket.

Many people gathered around to loot, and suddenly, a woman in white rushed out of the chaotic and desperate crowd, and yelled loudly, "Daddy, Daddy! I am your real daughter, she is not real! She is fake , I should be the county lord! If you don’t believe me, let me confront her, I can confront her!"

Ho ho!Is there a crape myrtle here too?Nianfu was so excited that he wanted to squeeze forward to take a closer look, but he was firmly grasped by an ignorant person next to him, "Why are you running? Be honest!"

Nianfu jumped up anxiously, "You let me go and see, let me go and see!" Such a reality show is rare in a lifetime!

Ouyang Kang didn't let go, and his grip became tighter and tighter, "You are sick, is that kind of excitement interesting?"

Nianfu was not convinced at first, but soon, she was shocked by what she saw.

Although the brave Ziwei rushed out of the crowd, she was stopped when she was five or sixty years away from the cart.

He was a handsome bodyguard comparable to Birkang, but not as sentimental as Erkang. He stabbed the girl's chest with a cold iron gun, raised it high, and slammed it to the back of the crowd, like throwing away a broken rag. Lost.

Before the exclamation from the crowd came to an end, a few more guards rushed over and swiped their guns horizontally. The child's wrist-thick iron gun immediately swept away blood from the mouths of several civilians who approached him.

then,

Then no one dared to make noise anymore, quietly waiting for those people to pass by, shivering like dead leaves on a branch in winter.

He...they left like this?Don't care about those who are injured or dead?Nianfu was completely dumbfounded, she only felt cold all over, only her hair was numb.

As if guessing what she was thinking, Ouyang Kang explained with a low sigh, "Rushing against a nobleman is a capital offense. Besides, she swears in public, which is an unforgivable crime. As for the nearby onlookers People, who knows if they are her accomplices?"

"But what if, what if what she said is true?" Wouldn't that be an eternal injustice?

But Ouyang Kang shook his head sadly, "It doesn't matter whether it's true or not. The important thing is that the county head has been recognized. If there is no sure evidence, someone with the same status as the Duke's mansion can be found to come." In charge, who can refute her?"

He paused, and then slowly said, "Today, I finally understand why Mr. Wu would say that some things can only be said for that sake. Otherwise, even if it is the truth that everyone knows, no one will listen to it."

Nianfu turned his head and looked at his equally pale, distressed face, and stopped talking.

At this time, someone in the front cart asked suspiciously, "What happened just now? Why does it sound like someone is crying from behind?"

The servant girl by the side of the car replied with a low eyebrow and pleasing eyes, "It's not a big deal, my lord, it's just that the common people scrambled for the distributed property, which caused some small disputes. Just now, the county mistress has sent some more things over. It's all right."

"Oh, that's good... Just like her mother, she is also a kind-hearted woman."

"Who said it wasn't. That's why God took extra care and let you find her."

……

Only after the large group of people passed by did someone in the crowd dare to whisper, "Ever since Pingguo recognized a daughter, the girls in this capital are going crazy. Everyone wished that they were not born at home, but the illegitimate daughter of some high-ranking official. But how can there be so many good things in this world? It’s good to kill one of those people..."

The crowd gradually dispersed, Ouyang Kang found another place with cheap clothes, and dragged Nianfu away.

When she passed by the crape myrtle in white clothes, the surging blood had already stained her whole clothes and the ground under her body red, and it was impossible to recover.But she still opened her eyes wide and distracted, muttering to herself:

"You...why don't you believe it? She is really...fake. We grew up together and begged together...She can do...I taught you..."

The lingering sound curled up and scattered in the wind, no one could hear it anymore.

After spending the few taels of silver left on the two of them, they bought cheap new clothes for Nianfu to change into. Ouyang Kang tried his best to talk and laugh for a long time, and finally cheered up Nianfu's mood.

Swallowing, subconsciously tugging at the hem of his clothes, and stroking his hair on the temples, Nianfu's heart began to beat up and down.Is her father at home?Will he marry another?Does he still remember his mother in Huai'an Town, and does he remember his unborn child?

But this... everything like this didn't belong to her in the first place, it belonged to another girl!

Nianfu suddenly became a little scared.Her legs also started to feel weak, and she felt like an imposter. Would she be like the girl just now, being poked with a gun and thrown out?

"I said..." Nianfu felt that she still couldn't go, she had to find a place to do some psychological training before going there.

But when he opened his mouth, Ouyang Kang had already asked passers-by, "Excuse me, how can I get to Shengpingfang?"

The man looked at Ouyang Kang like a monster, and walked away without saying anything.

"Why is he like this?" Eldest Ouyang wondered, but he asked two or three passers-by one after another, either shaking his head and saying he didn't know, or giving him a strange look, and walked away quickly.

Nianfu was a little frightened, "Don't be my father, or some wanted criminal?"

"Don't talk nonsense, just wait." Asking Nianfu to hold Zixiao to wait, Ouyang Kang took out a handful of copper coins in his purse, and beckoned to a guy who was soliciting business in front of the store and looked more friendly, Handing over the money, he smiled and asked, "Brother, we are from other places. Someone asked us to send a letter to relatives in Shengpingfang, so I want to know how to get there."

The guy weighed the copper coins in his hand, "Then I advise you, don't go. I guess the person who asked you to bring the letter is just kidding you."

"how do I say this?"

The man pulled him aside and whispered, "Do you know where is next to Shengpingfang?"

Ouyang Kang shook his head.

The man smiled strangely, "That's Furong Pond."

Where is Furong Pool?Ouyang Kang was at a loss, "It's the first time we've come back, so I really don't know, please explain clearly."

The man gave him a sideways look, "Do you know where is behind Furong Pond?" He paused for a moment before throwing out four words, "That's the imperial palace!" (To be continued.
