When I got up in the morning, it was raining sporadically, and the court ladies Yunxia and Yunxiao packed four boxes of luggage. Situ Yue didn't even look at it after getting up, and said to Cheng Ju, "Pack up four pieces of underwear, and pack out the inconspicuous ordinary clothes. Two pieces, handed over to Qin Wu to carry."

After breakfast, Situ Yue took Cheng Ju and Qin Wu to the outer city. After leaving the Xuanwei Gate, there was a bustling market outside. The voices came and went, and the street performers won the applause. Situ Yue stood halfway up the Hongqiao bridge by the canal, had a panoramic view of the entire market, and thought, "As expected, I am more comfortable here than in Nanyuan." Xiaoyu Slowly getting bigger, Cheng Ju held up an umbrella and whispered, "Master, let's go."

The three of them walked towards the other side of the Hongqiao, and they were about to get off the Hongqiao. They met a crying young man carrying a burden. The young man was constantly scolded and scolded by the people around him. Tears fell down more and more fiercely.

"Don't block the way, don't block you, you can't get through, it's annoying." Cheng Ju yelled at the young boy from behind Situ Yue, and the young boy immediately leaned against the railing of Hongqiao, apologizing "Yes I can't help but I'm sorry."

"Master, he is a barbarian."

The young man speaks with a southern accent. In this era, it is normal to bully foreigners. The aborigines have a natural sense of protecting their territory, thinking that foreigners have invaded their living space.

This young man didn't dare to raise his head, and there was a whip mark on his neck. In the capital city where the rich and powerful are everywhere, this kind of ordinary people can get hit a few times if they don't pay attention.Situ could tell that the young man's spirit was on the verge of collapse.

The people behind complained that they were blocking the way, and the young man flinched even more. Qin Wu yelled back directly. Those people didn't dare to fight against such a big and round man like Qin Wu, and passed by one after another.

"What's in your burden?" Situ Yue asked the young boy,

"Yes... yes... clogs."

It is rainy in the south, so wearing clogs during the rainy season will keep your shoes from getting wet.But the north is dry, and few people wear clogs.This young boy's business will not be good.

"How are your clogs? I'm missing a pair of clogs."

The little boy raised his head abruptly, with tears on his face, he stammered, "My... villain's clogs are... the best." Looking at Situ Yue's feet, he hurriedly He took out a pair of clogs wrapped in oiled paper from the burden.Situ Yue took off his shoes on Hongqiao.Cheng Ju couldn't stop her, and whispered from behind, "My uncle has a noble status." Situ Yue knew that it was not very respectable to take off her shoes in front of the public, but she had long since given up the word respectable.

The clogs were polished very smooth, without lacquer. Situ Yue had been to the south. The clogs worn by rich people paid attention to expensive materials and unique lacquer painting, but the pair under their feet was more comfortable to wear.After putting it on and walking a few steps, the young boy looked up at him with prayers, his clothes stuck to his body in the rain, looking very thin.

"It's really good. I bought it. Do you have any more? I also want to buy a pair for my grandfather. I also want to buy a pair for my uncle and brother who are not at home."

"there is there"

The young boy immediately took out three pairs of wooden clogs. At this time, the people on the Hongqiao were pointing at the fleet in the distance. Situ Yue followed and turned his head to see that a woman was standing in the first pair of clogs, wearing blue cloth floral clogs. Dress, holding an oil-paper umbrella, the man behind is wearing a sweatshirt and loose trousers, with the trouser legs tied up, and lowers the mast.What the surroundings accused was nothing more than this woman showing her face in public.Situ looked at it more and turned his gaze back. The boy in the rain was holding three pairs of clogs, looking at him with hope, and said to Cheng Ju, "You took these three pairs of shoes and picked a good pair to give to grandpa."

"Master, there are too many men in the family, and the remaining two pairs are not enough."

Situ Yue asked the young boy, "Would you like to work in our house? I have ten uncles and more than 30 younger brothers. Each of them will give a pair of wooden clogs, and they need four or fifty pairs. You can stay in the capital, just take care of food and lodging."

The little boy nodded like a pounding garlic, and the tears on his face were washed away by the rain.

"Cheng Yu, take him back to the mansion. He is not our servant, so don't beat and scold him if you treat him well. You don't have to follow me. Hurry up and send him to your grandfather. It's raining today, so he's wearing this season."

Cheng Yu was a little reluctant, and Situ Yue didn't look at him, and dawdled for a while, he and the young boy held an umbrella and walked away, looking back while walking, and turned back after walking a few steps, facing Qin Wu A clear explanation.

Situ Yue wore clogs and held an oil-paper umbrella and walked to the railing on the other side of the Hongqiao. The big boat at the beginning had already passed the Hongqiao, but was stopped by the patrolling boat. Five each holding an umbrella.

"My lord, it's a grain transport ship. I counted it. There are 28 ships in total. It seems that this grain transport can feed the people in the capital for two months. This fleet seems to belong to the Cao Gang. Not long after I heard that the gang leader had a stroke, his daughter tried her best to turn the tide and kept the Cao Gang from falling apart, so the woman just now is probably the gang leader's daughter."

"Which gang? There is more than one gang on the canal."

"Jiangbei's. It seems that these inspectors are unfamiliar with her and want to get some benefits."

The fleet stopped, and the canal pier was crowded. The woman in the blue dress stood at the bow and argued with others, letting the wind and rain wet her clothes.

"My lord, can we help? With your post, everyone will be polite to her when she travels to the canal in the future."

Situ Yue remembered what happened to Chengyue on the canal, and said to Qin Wu, "Of course I want to help. There are many places where our business depends on the Cao Gang. If you show kindness today, you must let them repay you in the future. You take my post Go down and see that girl's way of handling things, if it fits our temperament, it will naturally help, otherwise, you will come back, let's hurry up."

Qin Wu promised, and went down with an umbrella. Situ Yue strolled down the Hongqiao, went to a shop, ordered a bowl of tea and two sesame cakes, and watched the rain outside.After half an hour, Qin Wu came back, settled the bill for Situ Yue, and the two went to the pier.

Xiaoci County was not called Xiaoci County in the previous dynasty, because the warlocks said that the geomantic omen here is good, so it became the location of the imperial mausoleum. Ling, the Situ family is now the third generation. A hundred years ago, the Situ family was also a well-to-do family in a small county town in Jinling. There are two sons in the family. The eldest is a small official in the county, and the second is at home. read.One day, the second child went to a classmate's house, and the neighbor of the classmate died inexplicably. The county magistrate arrested the second child and beat him up in court. Do your best to get the truth.

The neighbor of the second child's classmate's house has a beautiful little lady. The young lady was a widow and was sent back to her mother's house because she felt a little restless in her husband's house. On the way back, she met a swinger. Concubine Chong's younger brother was discovered by the woman's father when he had a private meeting with the young lady, so he strangled the old man to death. The second child was sentenced to death.After the boss knew the truth, he naturally wanted to rescue his younger brother. He didn’t care about losing his job and his family’s wealth, so he sued him all the way to the capital. One day, a group of policemen rushed into the house and took the second child away. The policeman squeezed the old father's finger and stamped his handprint on a piece of paper, which said that because the family was poor, he voluntarily sold the youngest son to others as a scapegoat.The second child was taken to the execution ground immediately, and his head was beheaded.

The boss rebelled against the court because of this incident, and later became the leader of the dynasty, and was Situ Yue's great-grandfather by blood.

Situ Yue stood in the main hall in front of the imperial mausoleum, burned incense, kowtowed to the portrait, and made some obeisances before going to Taizong's mausoleum.

When Taizong was born, his family was still in Jinling. He was the legitimate eldest son. He also witnessed that day when the police rushed into the house and locked up his uncle. He did not draw the death penalty. He was born in the countryside when he was young, and entered the imperial city when he was young. Due to various changes in his family, his father and grandfather loved him especially, and he also took care of his sons. Therefore, in his later years, his son Their fight for the throne made him heartbroken. He had six empresses and many concubines in his life. In the end, only four princes survived in his later years, and all of them were the youngest sons.

Situ Yue paid homage to Taizong and Taizong's empresses, and the focus was to burn a few more copies of paper money for Empress Xiaowenzhuang who gave birth to her grandfather.

On the third day, Situ Yue went to pay homage to the crown prince and concubine Xu. The scale of the prince's mausoleum is not as large as that of the emperor, but it occupies a very large area. In the main hall in front of the mausoleum, the portraits of the prince and princess are hung in the middle. The portrait of Concubine Xu is hanging on the side. Looking at the portrait, the appearance of Concubine Xu and Concubine Xu seem to be the same, but in fact, Concubine Xu is older than both the Crown Prince and Concubine. The woman who gave birth to a child, Situ Yue was the crown prince's first child. Later, side concubine Xu gave birth to a daughter and a son but did not keep it. When the crown princess entered the palace late, Cheng Yue was her first child. Before Yue, the crown prince had two surviving sons. Among the heirs of the entire East Palace, Cheng Yue had the most distinguished status.

However, these people were all reduced to ashes. Situ Yue burned paper money for them with tears in his eyes. , everyone has become a tablet.
