Even if they were the leaders, they didn't live very well. The entire Guangnan West Road area is mostly living in a fence. Yun Yanhui had seen it once in Guizhou, but because there was a lot of trade with the Han people there, Shi Meilan still had furniture in her home.
As for the leader of the staff, there were no desks, chairs and beds in the room, and everyone was sitting on the floor. Moreover, the houses here are divided into two floors, and the bottom floor is empty, which is used to raise livestock. At the same time, direct contact with wet ground is avoided.
There is a saying that if it rains, it will be cold and sunny, and it will be hot, regardless of whether it is spring, summer or autumn. It's obvious what the environment is like.
Yun Yanhui was taken to the house of the leader of the staff here. Although he had been unbound, there were still weapons secretly facing him as a precaution.
The leader wore a blue scarf on his head, sat on the cowhide mat, looked at Yun Yan a few times, and said a few words in local language. Yun Yanhui didn't understand, but she was very calm. Sure enough, the next moment the person next to her translated it in awkward Miao language.
"You are a cat person, why do you wear Han clothes and hang out with Han people?"
The Miao people are also called cat people. Yun Yanhui naturally knew it and was not surprised. He called himself "Shishan" and explained: "In recent years, the government has relocated many Han people to Guangnan, and they have a lot of living needs. , We have white cloth and dried fish in our stockade, and we exchange things with the Han people. I dress like this to facilitate business.”
With that said, Yun Yanhui also carefully took out the Miao medicine that was placed close to her body and showed them that the local people knew it, and the Miao people never sold this medicine to outsiders, which further proved Yun Yanhui's identity.
The leader showed a bit of jealousy and said something, but it was not translated, but Yun Yan guessed it, and it was probably talking about the shrewd cat man.
The Tu people do not have the concept of specializing in business, and they believe that Yunyanhui is specially designed to exchange supplies for all the villagers. In this way, this person still has a bit of identity with them.
However, this can only make his colleagues not slow to abuse him, they don't plan to play Yunyan back like this.
On the contrary, the leader's eyes flashed, and he asked: "You didn't tell the truth, you were arrested at the inn, do you think we don't know where the inn is? You need to find a foreign official to exchange things with the Han people. ?"
This "Stone Mountain" was indeed a little embarrassed, and said: "This is not your business..."
"If you don't tell the truth, then we can't let you go. How can there be any concealment between brothers?"
Brothers, that's when we rebelled together. Yunyan glanced back at him, and said reluctantly, "I want to sell dried fish to other places. My mother-in-law's sister married a Han post officer as a concubine. He said to go north, the Han I like to eat dried fish, and it is expensive to sell. Our family eats dried fish that doesn’t cost much money, and we can’t get much if we take it down the mountain, but those Han people are willing to pay high prices.”
The leader showed a look of disbelief, "How is it possible, are the Han people stupid? Don't they know how to make dried fish themselves?"
"But they don't know how to make Hehuayu," Yunyan said in a positive tone. "It's the fish raised in the rice fields. They named it Hehuayu. Some people in the north make a lot of money by raising fish like this. Money. But there are not enough fish, and it is better that we raise them well. I think, if we sell it to the north, we will make money."
Speaking of which, the leader was already dubious. Although he doesn't know what's going on on the Han Chinese side, this cat man is so righteous, it doesn't look like it's fake.
The leader went back again and asked about Yun Yan's return to Guizhou. Yun Yan answered fluently and truthfully. He even knew the situation of Shi Meilan's family in great detail. How could the leader not believe it. Looking at Yunyan's return to thin skin and tender meat, and becoming a brother-in-law with Han officials, it must be a good condition.
While the leader was thinking, Yun Yan turned back and said anxiously: "My brother-in-law is still in your hands, and he is still injured. Although he is a Han Chinese, he is relative to me anyway, can you heal him? ?"
The leader rolled his eyes a few times and said with a smile: "Although it is very difficult, after all, we don't have much medicine... But, yes, it's for your sake."
As soon as he gave the order, someone went to the original house, brought Zhou Huilin over, took the antidote, and applied it internally and externally to him.
Yun Yanhui didn't speak to Zhou Huilin, afraid that someone who knew Chinese would reveal the truth, so he hurriedly stepped forward and called him in deliberately vague and twisted Chinese: "Brother-in-law, how are you?"
Zhou Huilin froze for a moment, "..."
He rolled over, raised his hand to cover his eyes, and hummed.
"You must not be in trouble, brother-in-law, if you have any good or bad, what will my sister do? What will we do?" Yun Yan returned with a worried look, turned to the leader and said, "My brother-in-law's goods are still at the foot of the mountain. In the warehouse, if we disappear, we may be occupied. Why don't you put me down the mountain, I will deal with it, I will come back to pay you for the medicine, and take my brother-in-law with me. I can give you half of the proceeds from the sale of dried fish. "
The leader laughed twice, "It's not good, your brother-in-law is so weak, you should accompany him. But the goods are also a problem, why don't you tell me where the warehouse is, and we will help you to see."
Damn, I'm sure I can't see it. Yun Yan returned a vigilant look, "Hehe, I don't remember! I only remember when I see the place!"
The leader also cursed in the bottom of his heart and hummed: "It is absolutely impossible to go down the mountain, we have rules."
Yun Yanhui didn't expect them to let them go. It would be good to treat Zhou Huilin's injury, "Okay, I understand. You can tell me how much the 'medicine' costs, and let the people in our stockade come and deliver it."
Seeing "Stone Mountain" on the road, the leader was very satisfied. "The other thing is, if this dried fish can really be sold, in fact... we also have a lot of dried fish. I will sell it to your brother-in-law as well, and we can exchange it together when we go up the mountain."
Yun Yanhui doesn't believe it at all, there will be a large number of dried Hehua fish here? Clearly wanted to take the opportunity to knock again.
However, Yun Yanhui was not afraid that he would ask for something, and made a pained appearance, "...Okay, okay, then you must tell the people in the stockade as soon as possible."
The leader rubbed his hands, "It seems that your stockade and the Han people have made a lot of money." Even his blackmail, he only hesitated for a moment. The leader suddenly thought of the rumors he had heard, and asked, "I heard that Shi Meilan is going to build a field in Guizhou, specializing in business, right?"
"It seems so, we are still discussing with the Han people." Yun Yan replied.
"No wonder... No wonder..." The leader thought to himself, then he would have to send a smart person to Guizhou to see how much he could cheat at most. There are very few people like Shishan in a stockade. Even if they couldn't cheat Shi Meilan, they would have to empty their own home.
Because he was barely half his own, the leader prevented Yun Yan from returning, but he did not treat him and Zhou Huilin harshly.
Yun Yan was not in a hurry to return, she asked someone to ask the leader for everything she wanted, and did not treat herself as an outsider.
On the first night, he went to the leader and said, "Although I'm very embarrassed, but it's like this, my brother-in-law was injured, and I want to kill a sheep to make up for him... If we don't live under the house, we will raise it. sheep?"
The leader scolded inwardly, how rich are the Miao people, and when everyone is not full, he dares to ask for a sheep as soon as he opens his mouth
He said very unhappily: "The sheep have not grown to the slaughter, so it is not cost-effective to slaughter them. Besides, the two of you can't eat a sheep. I will kill one for you and give you a few betel nuts. Your brother-in-law The arm injury is not serious, but the poison has not been completely cleared, and it is just a little weak."
This is still for the sake of knocking Yun Yan back hard, and he doesn't want to make the relationship too stiff, and he will meet in the future.
"Why do chickens have sheep supplements?" Yun Yan replied anxiously, "It's just one sheep, my mother-in-law's sister has thirty sheep, it's a big deal to let her send two back to you, otherwise, there are as many sheep as the body is damaged. It can’t be saved. Besides, we can’t eat much of a sheep, so we will share the rest for you.”
Don't talk about sheep, he wants to talk about cattle. The imperial court forbids food and farm cattle, and it cannot stand the repeated bans of the people. This is even more so in the place where the mountains are high and the emperor is far away. It only depends on whether the leader is willing or not. Yun Yanhui felt that it was better not to be so ruthless from the beginning.
Not to mention the leader, the translator next to him couldn't help swallowing. Mutton, delicious mutton, how long has it been since I had it
The leader listened, and then reluctantly agreed, "Okay, our sheep are well-raised, let's kill our sheep."
At that time, there will be two ends, and they are also their homes.
…
On the other hand, after getting out of trouble, Imperial Physician Wang went to the Yizhou Yamen to report his identity and told them that officials who were in charge of the emperor's life had been kidnapped. Send a message to Tokyo urgently.
The best result is to pay the ransom smoothly and get people out. But there are too many variables. I heard that the Tu people are cunning and greedy, they often go back on their word, and they are even more cruel to the Han people.
Imperial Physician Wang has lived for a long time and has seen a lot. He knows that the government in remote areas is mostly a mob, and it is difficult to do anything. Otherwise, he will not be robbed at the door and will not respond. Maybe he is afraid of dying, or perfunctory. Just a matter.
Therefore, Imperial Physician Wang simply reported it directly. With Zhou Huilin and Yun Yan back behind the two, either party's strength is enough to put pressure on the local area. Even if the local government cannot, the army can be transferred.
And the news that Yun Yanhui and Zhou Huilin were kidnapped into the mountains was quickly spread to Tokyo, which caused an uproar within a certain range.
Taking the lead of these two, one is the son of a high-ranking minister, and the guard is pro-military, and the other is the emperor's favorite minister, the prime minister's capable subordinate. Behind it, there are even more entanglements of interests, and most people do not want them to have an accident.
As an emperor, Renzong had a lot of writing skills, and immediately said: "Then I can't let the two young people have an accident. I ordered the prefect of Yizhou to deal with this matter with all my strength. If I can't do it, I will stay there for the rest of my life. 10,000 troops were dispatched to assist."
On the other hand, Yun Yanhui's friends are also in a hurry.
Zhao Yunchu was extremely anxious and asked to rush to Guangnan. Those people are unreasonable. No matter how smart Brother Yan is, what should I do if I encounter unreasonable people
I heard that they can't even understand Chinese, so how can they understand the truth.
However, even if Renzong could understand Zhao Yunchu, neither could his parents.
Such a dangerous place, not to mention the vicious Tu people, the poisonous miasma all over the place is terrifying. Now exile prisoners and relegated officials are put there, and the emperor's edicts are difficult to implement. It may be even more dangerous than the juicy field and the Liao Kingdom.
The princes and princesses have persuaded Zhao Yunchu that if there is an order from the official, it must be all right, just stay in the capital and wait for the good news. No matter how good your relationship is, you can't be too arrogant. How can one person fight against a thousand troops
Zhao Yunchu was so angry and anxious that he was speechless.
He sat in the yard angrily, side by side with Zhao Yundi, complaining. At this time, only Zhao Yundi could let him speak his mind.
"... Brother Yan didn't say goodbye to me, and went to Guangnan in a hurry," Zhao Yunchu wiped his tears, "I can't see him for a moment, and I can't feel at ease for a moment. If something happens to him, woo woo..."
Zhao Yundi gave Zhao Yunchu a pitiful look, "Yan Ge'er Jiren has his own good looks, and he is so likable, the barbarians would at best keep him as the prince of the village. Unlike Zhou Huilin, his mouth may have been given to him at that time. chopped."
Zhao Yunchu's tears surged even more, and Zhao Yundi silently hugged his shoulder to comfort him.
The princess slowly walked out of the room and saw that Zhao Yunchu had dropped the golden peas. She was loving and funny, and she couldn't help but tease: "Why are you still crying, I know that you are on good terms with Brother Yan, but when you look at Mrs. Zheng, both Sitting at home and waiting, are you more kissable than others?"
Her original intention was to ridicule, but it pierced Zhao Yunchu's heart.
Zhao Yunchu only felt a boiling emotion in his chest, and he knew it was irrational, but he still couldn't hold back and blurted out: "Auntie, in fact, I have been in love with Brother Yan for a long time."
Zhao Yundi looked sideways at Zhao Yunchu in shock.
The princess didn't seem to understand, "Huh?"
Zhao Yunchu: "Yes, it's true, I didn't joke with you. Even Bai Yutang has to go to Guizhou. If I don't go, how can I see each other?"
The princess' expression froze on her face, unable to digest what Zhao Yunchu said for a while.
…
The princess' face was pale, her hands were shaking, she looked around, turned around and took a ruler out of the room.
Zhao Yundi took a look at the familiar object and pulled Zhao Yunchu: "You have to listen to what someone has said, run away quickly!"
The princess walked in front of Zhao Yunchu and asked in a trembling voice, "Do you say it again?"
Zhao Yunchu had already reacted and knew that he was impulsive, but he couldn't take it back. He lowered his eyes slightly and said stubbornly: "I have admired Brother Yan for many years, just like you and Dad."
The princess raised the ruler, but Zhao Yunchu didn't dodge and just closed his eyes.
The princess shed tears and pulled the ruler on Zhao Yundi in disbelief.
Zhao Yundi: "Ah!! Ah??!"
