Yingzhou is famous throughout Litang as a royal hunting ground. WWw.QuANbEn-XiAoShUo.COm On this flat land, there are woods dozens of miles in diameter. There are many animals inside. Every year at the beginning of spring, the Holy Emperor would bring a large number of people and horses from the capital to come here for hunting.
It is precisely because of this that Yingzhou is much more special than other states. It is prosperous here but there are not many people. There is a very beautiful and huge palace here, which was used by the emperor during his hunting days.
Since a large hunting ground occupies almost 60% of the entire land of Yingzhou, the villages and towns here are very concentrated, with only a few families living in remote places. And this is also the place with the best security besides the capital.
It is now the cold winter season, and the woods, which were originally full of life, are also very quiet. Even those who usually like to sneak into the woods to hunt were too lazy to go in. After all, the forest is too big, so hunting in this season is really difficult, and it’s not easy to run away if you are discovered.
Of course, the chance of sneaking into a hunting ground is not that small. This hunting ground is surrounded by mountains and steep mountain roads, but on the only side, a large army is stationed every year. Even in the woods, there would be people checking in every few days, just for fear that if someone got in, it would be detrimental to the emperor.
Xiao Yueye and Murong Yufeng rushed to the town closest to the hunting ground with complicated emotions. According to Xiao Yueye's judgment, Murong Yufeng's mother, Zhao Ling'er, was just the daughter of an ordinary family. There were only two possibilities for her to be attracted by the leader of the Litang Kingdom, who was still the prince at the time. First, someone sent Zhao Ling'er to the prince's palace, and second, the prince accidentally met Zhao Ling'er outside.
The first possibility is that you need to carefully search around. Generally speaking, if this is true, this is a big deal in the countryside and will definitely be talked about. The wet nurse also said that Zhao Linger was lucky enough to escape the pursuit at that time, which would definitely cause a sensation.
The second possibility is why Xiao Yueye lives in this town. If he accidentally met her and then fell in love with Murong Yufeng's mother, then with the dignity of the prince at that time, even if he came out incognito, he would not be far from the palace. The town where the palace is located is where Xiao Yueye lives now.
After finding an inn and settling in, Xiao Yueye took the masked Murong Yufeng out for a walk. The place he chose was the teahouse.
Although the New Year is celebrated, in rural areas, sometimes the New Year is not celebrated until the entire first month has passed. Therefore, there were relatively few pedestrians on the streets, and even fewer in the teahouses. There were less than ten people. They ordered a pot of tea and some peanuts. They squinted their eyes and shook their heads while listening to the storyteller above bragging.
The storyteller also looked weak, probably because there were few people and no money. He would say one sentence, then stop for three sentences, and just sway around, which was quite relaxed.
The entrance of Xiao Yueye and the others immediately attracted everyone's attention. I have never eaten pork, but I have also seen pigs running away! Their gorgeous clothes immediately seemed a little out of place. Especially the two people's ordinary temperament made everyone present understand that they were either rich or noble!
However, a doubt also arises: why did these two nobles come to such a small teahouse
Despite his doubts, the waiter ran over very enthusiastically, wiping the table, bending down, smiling flatteringly, and doing everything in a proper manner, which made the other tea patrons secretly curse this boy for being unkind. When had you ever been so enthusiastic when you came here
Xiao Yueye also saw through the waiter's little calculation. It was obvious that he regarded himself as a fat sheep. If he served well, he would be rewarded more. He had a plan in mind, and looking at the appearance of this waiter, it was exactly what he wanted. Glancing lightly at the others, Xiao Yueye didn't seem to care and threw a full five taels of silver ingots to the waiter.
The waiter took it, his face was startled for a moment, and then he burst into laughter. The shopkeeper is not here today, so Zhengwuliang belongs to him! So he hurriedly put the silver ingot into his arms and served it respectfully, as if the two of them were father and mother. Newer, faster, all in.! Net full text reading allows you to understand at a glance and enjoy reading at the same time!
Maybe, he wasn't so kind to his parents.
Seeing the handiwork of Xiao Yueye and the others, everyone present was excited. Good guy, rich man! He's still a rich man! Ever since, the eyes looking at the two people had a little more flavor.
Xiao Yueye took Murong Yufeng to sit down and thoughtfully poured a cup of tea. To be honest, this tea is the best in this teahouse. Even if Xiao Yueye drank it, it felt good. However, Murong Yufeng frowned and sighed leisurely, as if she was infinitely sad. Although she was covered with a veil, this sad and sad posture still made the men present feel startled and wanted to rush forward immediately to wipe away the sorrow on her forehead.
Xiao Yueyue picked up a cup of tea with an elegant gesture, but she used the tea to hide her smile. Yufeng's acting skills are really impeccable. If this were done in modern times, she would still not be a movie queen!
Seeing Murong Yufeng sigh several times, it attracted the attention of everyone present. Xiao Yueye put down her teacup and whispered softly, knowing that it was time for her to take the stage.
"Yufeng, don't worry, we will find it one day."
Murong Yufeng raised her head with great resentment, her eyes were filled with waves, and the tenderness in them was enough to turn everyone present into soft fingers. She glanced around casually, then wiped away the tears from the corner of her eyes gracefully: "Xiao Lang, you don't have to comfort me. We have been looking for so long, but there is no news. Hey, after all, it has been seventeen years, things are people. No, I only blame myself for my misfortune.”
Xiao Yueye glanced at the others calmly and found that many people were holding cups in their hands, but their heads were tilted here, and their ears were high. He smiled secretly, but his face was extremely hurt and sad: "Yufeng, don't worry, as long as she is still in Yingzhou, we will definitely find her. We can also fulfill the mother-in-law's last wish."
Hearing Xiao Yueye's advice, tears fell from Murong Yufeng's eyes, and everyone around her felt pain in their hearts.
"Xiao Lang!" Murong Yufeng threw herself into Xiao Yueye's arms, pear blossoms in the rain: "Xiao Lang, what if I really can't find you? How can I, an unfilial daughter like me, not even be able to fulfill my mother's last wish?"
When she cried, she was not really acting, but actually thinking about her years of misery and feeling sad. Xiao Yueye also understood, so he showed a careless and distressed look and patted her back gently.
Murong Yufeng slowly turned from sobbing to choking. She shyly broke away from Xiao Yueye's arms, then held her chin with her eyes filled with resentment. At this time, a gust of wind blew from nowhere and lifted up a corner of her veil. Even though it was just a corner, Xiao Yueye heard the sound of gasping.
Xiao Yueye smiled imperceptibly, and pretended to talk to herself: "It's a pity that I have a fortune, but I can't help you. Hey! If someone can help you and find her, I will spend the money." A hundred taels, so what?”
His words, whether they were high or low, were clearly heard in the ears of everyone present. Especially the waiter who was closer, his eyes shone brightly and he swallowed hard.
"Well, this young master, I wonder who you want to find?" An old man who looked to be about sixty years old finally couldn't help but stand up.
And as soon as he opened his mouth, others also started asking.
Xiao Yueyue was happy and it was done!
He and Murong Yufeng were just acting today. What happened more than ten years ago, those who knew about it at that time are probably old men. Although there are few people in this teahouse, it is the oldest teahouse in town. Moreover, among the nearly ten people here today, six or seven are over forty years old. Not to mention, the storyteller who claims to know everything.
Use beauty first, then money, the tricks Xiao Yueye used are not simple. But it happened that such a simple trick attracted these people. Especially the one hundred taels of silver, for these people, it is enough for them to spend half a lifetime.
The thoughts in my mind changed in the blink of an eye. Xiao Yueye thought with confusion and surprise, looking at the "enthusiastic" people, Murong Yufeng also wiped away her tears and looked at everyone "affectionately".
"Everyone, you know?"
The one said: "I have been here in Yingzhou all my life and I know everything. If you want to find someone, just ask me."
An old man stamped his crutches, looked at this with dissatisfaction and said, "I have lived seventy-two years, what do you not know?"
"Although I'm only in my forties, when I was young, I also ran away from the entire Yingzhou. Brother, if you find someone, I'll help you."
Seeing everyone's "kindness", Xiao Yueye showed a troubled look, thought for a while and said: "If you can help me find that person, I will thank you with a hundred taels of silver. But there are many people with mixed opinions, so it's not as good as this. Nine people present As long as I can help you find them, how about I give you fifty taels each as a reward?"
"Okay!" The waiter was the first to applaud. He is young, how could he possibly know what happened more than ten years ago. I originally thought that I had nothing to do with these one hundred taels, but who knew that this person who had been taken advantage of actually gave each person fifty taels, so he had made a profit!
Others were a little discouraged, but after thinking about it, it was better this way. If they didn't know, wouldn't they be at a loss? !
Seeing that everyone agreed, Xiao Yueye did not hesitate, took out a five hundred tael silver note from his arms, and slapped it on the table with a "snap", which immediately attracted everyone's attention and made the sound of swallowing saliva one after another.
Murong Yufeng and Xiao Yueye looked at each other and could see each other's nervousness and expectations.
Xiao Yueye coughed twice before summoning everyone's souls back. The old man from before turned red and asked, "I wonder who the young master is looking for? Whose name is he?"
Murong Yufeng said quickly: "Her surname is Zhao Ling'er. She is a woman from a wealthy family. She was only eighteen years old seventeen years ago."
As soon as he said this, everyone's expressions changed drastically. (Quanben Novel Network www.QuANbEn-XiAoShUo.com)
