Zhuang Qing asked the magistrate of Leyang County to accompany him, and asked Xinna's tenth concubine, Yueji, to pour wine for Xia Sang, and then ordered the girl to serve wine to other people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Agar-white jade-like slender hands hold on to the wine jug, and a gleaming jade bracelet hangs on Hao’s wrist. The pink jade contains a faint hazy cloud of smoke, a dark green, dotted with smoke and cloud peaks and peaks, making it more and more beautiful like jade carvings. , hands white as snow smoked.
Xia Sang was talking to Zhuang Qing, but at this moment, Yue Ji was caught by the wrist.
Yue Ji called out "Yeah", the wine cup was overturned, and the table was in a mess.
"Director Xia, could it be that this king's concubine has offended you?" Zhuang Qing narrowed his eyes and laughed dryly.
Xia Sang withdrew her hand, and her eyes moved hurriedly: "It's Xia Sang who is out of shape, don't blame Wang Zhuang. It's just that Xia Sang dares to ask the tenth lady, where did the lady buy this bracelet from?"
Yue Ji heard the words, her eyes flickered, and she hesitated for a while before saying: "Back to the chief steward, this bracelet was purchased by the concubine at Yubaoxuan in the county."
Xia Sang smiled lightly, stared at the bracelet for a while, and said lightly, "Xia Sang has long heard that Leyang County is a prosperous place, and many adults in the court even said that the county should pay taxes, but the emperor said It’s not easy for King Zhuang, so don’t mention the tax increase. I didn’t expect that a hundred hearings are better than seeing them. Ten thousand taels of silver."
Yue Ji's face changed suddenly, Zhuang Qing's wife and other concubines immediately looked at Yue Ji with jealousy on their faces.
"Manager Xia, do you think this bracelet is worth hundreds of thousands of taels?" Zhuang Qing frowned.
Xia Sang nodded and said, "This bracelet is called Yunli Yucui, and the end is extremely clever. There are characters in the jade. Now, King Zhuang, do you see that there is a jade word hidden in the dark green?"
Zhuang Qing grabbed Yue Ji's hand and saw that a word "jade" was looming and flowing in the cloud and ink in the bracelet.
Yue Ji's face turned pale, Zhuang Qing was furious, and slapped her face with a scratch, "Bitch, why don't you tell me where this bracelet came from?"
The moonlight is hazy, and Leyang County will meet the Leyang County prison.
Several jailers were drinking old wine and pushing Pai Gow on the table.
"Bitch, lost again!" A jailer tugged at his waist, threw the purse on the table, raised his head and drank a few sips of old wine.
The other people shared the money, laughed loudly, and said to one of them, "Old Wangtou, all your salary and money for this month are filial to your brothers. Tonight, you will go home and hug your mother-in-law at the end of the night. How many of our brothers? I'm going to sleep with the girl in Yixiang Pavilion."
The jailer who lost the money snorted coldly, spat, and sat aside to smoke a stick.
The cell was very quiet. Although many people were imprisoned, it was dark in the middle of the night, and the prisoners who were extremely violent during the day were also completely quiet at this time.
Suddenly, a voice sounded faintly from a cell that was very close to several people, "I want to taste this smoke too."
Several prison guards looked at each other and looked at the cell, only to see a young woman leaning on the stone bed, looking over with wink. She has a gorgeous face and slightly crimson lips. During this time of looking forward, everyone just felt that their hearts were full.
This woman is a bandit and a prisoner. Speaking of which, she is also very bold, and she will not be robbed, but she wants to move the mother of the magistrate of Leyang County.
Originally, the vassal kings and county magistrates had made good relations with the bandits in the various mountains and forests. As long as the bandits paid a fair amount of gold and silver every month, they would not interfere much, and the bandits robbed the business and travels, but they would not touch the official's family. The female bandit didn't know whether it was a new arrival or something, but she went to rob the old lady by herself.
The old lady was surrounded by someone who was a good hand from the county magistrate to protect the old mother. The female bandit was defeated and was eventually captured. If it wasn't for an adult from the court, and the vassal asked the magistrate to accompany him, the magistrate would have dealt with the female bandit tonight.
The jailer hesitated, picked up the cigarette stick and stood up. He had just drank a few cups of wine, and the smell of alcohol came up, and several colleagues next to him were booing again, and he walked to the front of the cell in three or two strokes.
The woman walked over, and the jailer was clinging to the iron fence, reaching out his hand, everyone stared at it, and said some dirty words to make fun of it, suddenly screamed, and saw the jailer in front of the cell fell to the ground with a bang. A dagger stuck in his chest.
Everyone was taken aback, the prison door was suddenly opened, and the woman walked out with a smile, playing with the key in her hand.
Several guards rushed over with their weapons in hand.
In the blink of an eye, several men were knocked over. The woman smiled softly and walked towards the door.
"Want to escape?"
There was a shout from the door, the woman's face changed suddenly, and a short-bearded middle-aged man walked in with several prison guards - this man was the one who captured her in the woods.
"My lord is going to the royal palace tonight to accompany the distinguished guests from the imperial court to have a drink, and specially let me watch. You offended the old lady, how can you escape?" The man raised his eyebrows and sneered.
The woman didn't speak, she leaned over and picked up the sword of the jailer on the ground. With a flash, she was already attacking the man.
The guards who came with the man did not need to do anything at all. They fed and demolished dozens of tricks. The woman had already taught the man to catch him and twisted his hands. Seeing that the man was about to push her into the cell, the woman gritted her teeth and her eyes were full of resentment. Suddenly, the hand holding her behind her suddenly fell away, and she heard the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground. She was startled, turned her head to look, and saw that the man had Passed out on the ground.
Several guards at the door also fell to the ground.
In the shadow of the candles, a man in a blue shirt stood out.
She frowned and asked involuntarily, "Who are you? Why do you want to save me?"
The man said lightly: "Don't talk too much, let's go."
