There is only one person in southern Xinjiang who can be called the marshal, and that is Guan Yubai, An Yihou of the original Dayu!
Qu Jiayue didn't know about this, but many of the young masters and girls present were general disciples, so most of them knew about it.
During the New Year, with most of the troops stationed in Xiye returning one after another, the eldest son Xiao Yi changed the military system while awarding meritorious deeds. Now the Southern Border Army is using the Southern Border military system and no longer belongs to Dayu. .
Guan Yubai was formally appointed as the Generalissimo of the Army and Horses, with military power in his hands, and now he can be said to be very popular in the southern border!
After the battle in Xiye, the Southern Border Army was completely convinced by the Generalissimo.
The young man in blue robe who called out "Marshal" was the first to stride forward, and the other young men and girls followed, and some girls whispered about Guan Yubai, which naturally spread to Qu Jiayue's ear middle.
She used to only know that "the cunning rabbit is dead, the lackey is cooking", but she never thought that Xiye had already been captured, but Xiao Yi even gave Guan Yubai a soldier talisman, and Guan Yubai's status in southern Xinjiang was far higher than what she knew Much more!
The crowd headed in the direction of Guan Yubai, and Qu Jiayue had no choice but to step forward, but her steps hesitated a little, and her face that was originally radiant now showed a bit of stiffness.
During this period of time, Qu Jiayue lived well in Southern Border. Although Southern Border was not as prosperous as Wangdu, it was much better than Xiye, where the sky was full of yellow sand and the birds didn't shit. In just a few months, she The skin is much smoother.
Moreover, because of her father Pingyang Hou's relationship, all the southern borders treated her with courtesy, and she wanted to make friends with everyone, so today, I invited some girls and young masters to go out for an outing, and I didn't expect to meet Guan Yu white.
When he was in the royal capital, Qu Jiayue looked down upon Guan Yubai. Even if Guan Yubai cleared up the wrongs of the officials back then, he was just the son of a helpless criminal minister who had gone out again. Ming was weak and sickly, and Qu Jiayue was in full bloom at that time, so he didn't look at Guan Yubai very much, and he didn't even recognize him at first glance.
It turned out that Guan Yubai looked like this!
Fengshen is handsome, elegant and gentle, gentle and moist like jade, like a banished fairy. Everyone says Gongjun Wang Han Lingfu is a refined and elegant young man, but compared with Guan Yubai, he is really far behind!
If I can be with him
Qu Jiayue's heart warmed at first, but then she became a little nervous. Does Guan Yubai still recognize herself? ! Will he reveal his identity
In just a blink of an eye, Qu Jiayue's thoughts were already spinning, her steps became even slower, her heart was hanging in the air, feeling uneasy.
"Meet the Marshal!"
The blue-robed young man who walked in the front was the first to salute Guan Yubai with his fists clasped. He is a general in the Southern Border Army. He also served under Guan Yubai's command during the battle against Xiye before, so he naturally recognized him. A newly promoted generalissimo who is located in southern Xinjiang and rarely communicates with other prefectures.
"Ren Baijiang." Guan Yubai revealed the other party's identity in one sentence, which flattered the young Mr. Ren.
After he responded, he looked at the little guy on the pony hesitantly, and asked tentatively, "Is this the grandson?"
Hearing this sentence, everyone was startled. They were also guessing who this boy who seemed to be only two or three years old was just now, but most of them didn't think of his grandson. After all, apart from Guan Yubai, Xiao Xiaoyu and Xiao Si, there was obviously no one else around.
The grandson is the heir of the next generation of the royal family. Will the grandson and concubine entrust the grandson to others so easily and take them out? !
Many people looked at each other in blank dismay, but they thought it was not impossible when they thought that the style of His Excellency's conduct had always been unexpected.
Immediately afterwards, those young masters and girls saluted Guan Yubai and Xiao Xiaoyu one after another:
"Meet the marshal, grandson."
Xiao Yu, who was sitting astride the pony, raised his hand in a dignified manner, and said loudly, "Excuse me."
Is this child the son of Nangong Yue and Xiao Yi? ! Qu Jiayue only glanced at it at first, but couldn't help but look again.
This child is obviously well-raised, white and fat, with a pair of peach blossom eyes like Xiao Yishen shining like black grapes, and a round face like a glutinous rice dumpling.
Qu Jiayue's heart was surging again, mixed with bitterness, jealousy, and resignation
She lowered her eyes halfway, not daring to look any further.
Most of the young masters and girls who came out today were not familiar with Guan Yubai, so naturally they didn't dare to say anything to invite them to go outing together. After the ceremony, the young master Ren took the initiative to bid farewell, and everyone left talking and laughing, and continued to walk along the lakeside Enjoy the view.
The spring breeze is gentle, and the warm wind makes tourists drunk.
In the crowd, many girls couldn't help but look back, their dark eyes glistened with water.
Girl Huaichun, most of them thought of going in one direction.
Guan Yubai is not married yet!
They say they are a little older and know how to love others
The faces of some girls were dyed with a blush like sunset glow, and they were charming and charming.
Qu Jiayue naturally noticed it too, she was disdainful in her heart, her eyes were deep, like a bottomless pool: She still has a chance!
The group of people gradually walked away, laughing at Yan Yan, and Guan Yubai had already taken Xiao Yu to another direction, playing and stopping at will, and came to a village near a village without knowing it. Among them, there are several "sneaky" figures behind them.
Of course, Xiaosi also noticed that if these were some suspicious gangsters, he would have dealt with them long ago, but they were just children from a few nearby villages.
Several children were staring at Xiao Yu on the pony, pointing and pointing. What's more troublesome, they even went to inform their little friends and called more children. A dozen or so children came curiously. Watch little Xiao Yu.
Children are naturally observant, and found that the three nobles had no intention of expelling them, and the good-looking young master and the young master seemed extremely friendly, and they all got closer and closer curiously. Later, there was even a four or five-year-old The boy with a runny nose dared to talk to him: "Little brother, is this a pony?"
Horses are extremely precious among the people. For these ordinary farmers, it is considered well-off to have a cow or a donkey at home. The children of these farmers can occasionally see passers-by riding by on the side of the road, but this The pony has never seen it.
"This must be a mule, right?" Another five or six-year-old girl couldn't help coming over and said.
Xiao Xiaoyu frowned, pointed at himself and said solemnly: "I, big brother!" Obviously, he is taller than them all, of course he is the big brother!
The corners of Xiao Si's eyes twitched, and he was a little speechless about the obsession of Xiao and his son.
"Brother." The boy called out really foolishly.
The little guy is used to wanting to touch his purse as a gift, but he came out to play today, so he didn't bring a purse with him at all. After thinking about it, he opened his arms and signaled his father to pick him up, and said "high above" Said to the younger brother: "My brother rides a horse."
The little guy graciously gave up his pony.
"It's a horse! It's a pony!"
The children in the back chattered and chattered, their eyes glowing with excitement.
The short-handed and short-footed boy was still young, so of course he couldn't climb up to the horse himself, and in the end it was Xiaosi who helped him up.
The other boys could ride a horse as soon as they saw the call "big brother", and they all gathered around and lined up to call "big brother".
Little Xiao Yu has always been generous, and he readily lent them the pony to ride, that is, Xiao Si who had a hard time leading the horse.
After a while, Xiao Xiaoyu had a great time playing with these children, and someone even invited him and Guan Yubai to have lunch in a hospitable manner. Invite "big brother" to play again.
Xiaosi finally knows what it means to be like "like father, like son".
The three rode away.
After returning to Bixiaotang, Xiao Xiaoyu hurried to show off to his mother again. While bathing in the wooden barrel, he kept talking, talking about where he went today and what he saw; talking about his "little brothers" "; talking about the clucking chickens and mooing cows in the village; talking about the sweet and sweet roasted sweet potatoes buried in straw ash at noon
The little guy's vocabulary is limited, he stumbles when he speaks, and sometimes even fidgets. Nangong Yue basically relies half on guessing, asking him from time to time: "Is it fun?" "Is it delicious?" "Does it look good?"
While talking, the little guy became sleepy after playing for a long time. When the nurse and maid took him out to dry himself and get dressed, he tilted his head, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Nangong Yue hugged the little guy and fell asleep on the couch
In the afternoon of Bixiaotang, the sun is slightly drunk, it is quiet and leisurely, just suitable for taking a nap.
Compared with southern Xinjiang, the early spring in Wangdu is much colder. Even when the sun is shining in the afternoon, you have to wear a thin jacket to keep out the cold.
At this time, Bai Muxiao was walking on a street in the royal capital wearing a simple blue thin jacket and a blue handkerchief wrapped around her head. She was as plain as a common woman who could be seen everywhere on the road, with a haggard look on her face. , out of mind.
Seeing people coming and going on the street, and the bustle and bustle, Bai Muxiao didn't know what to do.
Although it has been a while since the "blood test" in Jingzhao Mansion, until today, the streets and alleys of the capital are still talking about it, scolding Bai's flirtatiousness, and laughing at Han Lingfu's green cloud Every time he heard it, Bai Muxiao was ashamed and indignant, but there was nothing he could do.
Now she is just a dog in the water, everyone can beat her!
Bai Muxiao gritted her teeth secretly, her heart was full of unwillingness.
That day, in Wanping Town, after Ayimu knocked her out, he hugged Han Weijun and left. When Bai Muxiao woke up, he wanted to catch up, but found that Ayimu and Han Lingfu were surrounded by Jin Yiwei .
In that case, there was nothing she could do at all, all she could do was—
escape!
For more than a month, Bai Muxiao had been hiding in Wanping Town. It wasn't until the rumors passed that she came to the capital quietly, wanting to find out about Han Lingfu, Ayimu and Han Weijun.
First, though, she had to find a place to settle down.
Bai Muxiao touched her empty cuffs, she had no money on her, and now she could only use it as her jewelry.
Bai Muxiao looked around while walking, until she stopped in front of a "Shi's pawn shop", and then walked in resolutely.
In the pawn shop, a thin and small guy was sitting behind the counter and doing some calculations, making a crisp sound of dialing beads.
Bai Muxiao walked to the counter, took out a wishful emerald jade hairpin from the pocket in her sleeve, and said, "I want to be a hairpin."
"Live or die?" said the boy casually, looking up.
"Damn it." Bai Muxiao said lightly.
The clerk took out a wooden tray and signaled Bai Muxiao to put the jade hairpin on it. After glancing at it twice, he said casually, "Little lady, your jade hairpin is of ordinary quality. If there is no flaw, it can be worth two taels of silver."
This guy still wants to deceive her! Bai Muxiao smiled coldly, intending to snatch back her jade hairpin, and said, "This hairpin is Mo Cui!"...
"Wait a minute!" The man smiled and held down the tray, "Don't be impatient, little lady, let me take another look."
Bai Muxiao knew that the people in these pawnshops were people who bullied the good and feared the evil, and took advantage of their power to bully others. It might be the same in another pawnshop, so she withdrew her hand.
The waiter pretended to look at the hosta carefully, and then said: "Twenty taels, young lady, twenty taels at most."
Bai Muxiao frowned slightly, and the clerk said again: "Little lady, you can't give you twenty taels back if you go to another house!" He curled his lips, as if to say, whoever came to the pawn shop is not short of money!
Bai Muxiao knew in her heart that this jade hairpin was worth at least fifty taels, and the guy was right in saying that the pawn shop was a place to deceive people, and she was in a hurry to use the money, so she could only bear it.
"Okay, twenty taels is twenty taels." She nodded and agreed, "Brother, please get me some broken silver."
The clerk immediately smiled, responded again and again, and said with a smile: "Little lady, wait here for a while, I will get the silver later." After finishing speaking, the clerk opened the curtain and went to the inner room
After drinking a cup of tea, Bai Muxiao walked out of Shi's pawn shop holding a blue purse, and was about to go to the right when someone bumped her from behind.
With a low cry, Bai Muxiao staggered and fell to the ground. The next moment, a gray shadow flashed in front of her eyes. She felt that her hands were empty, and her purse had been snatched away!
"Thief!" Bai Muxiao hurriedly got up, and chased after the gray figure in front, shouting, "Help catch the thief!"
Passers-by heard the sound, but no one came to help.
Bai Muxiao had no choice but to grit her teeth and chase after her. She was already penniless, and this was her last money.
Panting, Bai Muxiao chased after two streets, followed the gray figure and turned into a narrow alley. When she realized that there was no one else around, she stopped vigilantly.
But it's too late!
She didn't have time to turn around, she just felt a sharp pain on the back of her neck, and she didn't know what hard object hit her, followed by her dizzy head
Oops!
Bai Muxiao's heart skipped a beat, she had been tricked.
She didn't even have time to call out for help, her body had already collapsed uncontrollably, her mind was dizzy, and her eyelids were heavy
Soon, her vision went dark and she lost consciousness.
I don't know how long it took, but Bai Muxiao woke up again in a daze, but the back of her neck and the back of her head were dizzy, dizzy and painful, and her eyes were dark.
She felt that she was packed in a sack, and the bumpy feeling under her body and the sound of wheels in her ears told her that she was in a carriage.
Where will she be sent? !
Bai Muxiao wanted to scream, but her mouth was blocked by a ball of sackcloth, and her wrists were tied behind her back with hemp rope, even if she struggled hard, she couldn't move.
Gradually, a feeling of despair rose up in her heart and spread
It wasn't until this moment that Bai Muxiao suddenly realized how difficult it is for a lonely woman without the protection of her family to survive in this world.
Once she is no longer a girl of the Bai family, no longer the side concubine of Prince Gong's Mansion, even thinking about living an ordinary life is a luxury!
She was not reconciled, she was obviously smarter and more talented than those so-called noble girls in the royal capital, why is this world unable to accommodate an outstanding woman!
"Bone Lulu"
The wheels rolled rapidly, and after an unknown amount of time, the carriage stopped, followed by a sharp old female voice: "Er Gouzi, the things you brought this time won't be the same vulgar fans again, right? Our Cangxiang Pavilion is not like that Baihualou accepts all kinds of cats and dogs!"
"Mother Yu, don't worry, this one is top-notch!"
During the speech, Bai Muxiao felt his eyes light up, the sack was pulled away by a corner, and he looked at the old woman with heavy make-up carefully.
Bai Muxiao made a sound of "吚吚吹吹", the old woman smiled with satisfaction, and said with a grin: "This product is okay. Let me carry it up!"
Immediately, the sack was closed again, and Bai Muxiao's eyes were once again plunged into darkness, just like her heart.
She was actually sold to a brothel!
Bai Muxiao's heart sank little by little until it reached the bottomless abyss
