The queen is a bit cowardly

Temari is an extremely popular game among aristocratic women. In the country of Xin, noble girls like to hit the ball against poetry. One girl throws the ball at random to one person, and reads the name of the poem aloud before the opponent catches the ball. After arriving at the ball, read the verse quickly, and if you hesitate, it will be considered a failure.And at sunrise, the game is completely changed. There is a kind of extremely elastic kelp in the sunrise. People weave it into a rope after drying it, and then soak it in the sea again. This kind of rope was used as a bow string in the early days, and later there For a better substitute, people tie it to Temari to see who can slap more.

Today, the backyard of the Wei Mansion also reminded me of the laughter of the women. The leading woman was wearing a light green uniform all her life. She held a wooden plank in her hand. Perhaps the uniform was too convenient. She jumped extremely high with a single leap. Swinging Temari back, the girl who caught the ball was indeed not so comfortable, the somewhat stiff skirt made her unable to keep her pace, so she could only watch Temari fall from the ground in front of her.

"No, you fouled!" The girl was a little unhappy, she kicked the ball aside, and the slave quickly picked it up in her hands.

The woman in green patted the ashes on her knees, and said with a smile, "I didn't ask you to dress like this, you can also wear a pretty dress."

"me.."

It is true that before playing Temari, Jiang Qingluan reminded her to change into convenient clothes, but she thought that she could look prettier, so not only did she not wear rough clothes, but she even put on light makeup.

"But knowing that I played like this today, His Highness never let me." The woman said coquettishly.

Jiang Qingluan still humbly said: "Then I will give you half a foot."

"How?"

"Is it feasible to move only one foot?" Jiang Qingluan smiled, and even the cold winter would feel that the spring breeze was still there.

The girl nodded, and turned around to get the ball from the slave. She also had a smile on her face. She never thought that the person who saved her that day was the one her father married her, let alone the notorious His Royal Highness Fu Wang. So tender and funny.

"Then I'll hit the ball this time?"

"nature."

Mudan sat on the side, watching Jiang Qingluan cooperate with Wei Shu so much. These days, the lady who led the Wei family was hunting and playing at the same time. If she hadn't seriously rejected this marriage in front of Wei Xin, Mudan really thought she Now she is in love with Wei Shu.

After thinking about it, she still felt puzzled, so she asked the man beside her, "If Your Majesty really likes Wei Shu, he should agree to get married, and we won't be under house arrest here for half a month, right?"

"Such vulgar fellows, do you think they can catch our lord's eyes?" Ba Le squatted on the ground, nibbling melon seeds. What I have to say is that Wei Xin treated them well, and he could deliver them every day this day. Melon and fruit snacks.

"Since Your Majesty doesn't like it, why bother teasing him?" Mudan frowned.

"Does this mean it can be called teasing? The girl is just thinking too much."

"Can't you be more aggressive with that Wei family girl?"

"Now that we are living under the fence, you want your lord to be more aggressive to her?" Ba Le spat out the melon seed husk, and continued, "Your lord also looked like this in Kongyou's mansion back then, and it was even worse."

"In the Confucian Mansion, it is for survival. Here, why should you be like this." Mudan knows that Wei Xin is a person, and he only lives for face. If he grasps this point and starts, it is understandable that Jiang Qingluan will be more stubborn, but now Jiang Qingluan is here every day. It's delicious and delicious, and there's no rush.

"You have your own thoughts." Ba Le replied, in fact, he knew that Jiang Qingluan might not have any ideas, but returned to such an environment under house arrest, and used to show his cowardly appearance, keeping a low profile, waiting for Chang Lan to come. on the road.

"By the way, Youtu and the other two guards have been away for almost half a month. I don't know if you have gone out?" Bale said. That day Mudan came to Wei's mansion with only eight people, and the other two after Youtu. A capable person did not go with them.

Mudan was also well prepared, and specially told Youtu to stay in another inn for three days. If she didn't hear from them in these three days, she would go back the same way and go to Baili County to move rescuers.

"If it goes well, then it should be here in two days." Mudan counted the days, but she was still worried that the mountains would be blocked by heavy snow and they would be blocked on the road.

"Then I have to ask for the blessing of Changshengtian." Ba Le finished eating the last melon seed, patted his trouser legs and stood up. He stretched his waist vigorously, looked at Jun Shang who was still playing with Wei Shu, and said, "Mr. Acting alone is also tiring, why don't you play a few games with Jun Shang?"

"Where are you going?" Peony asked.

Balak looked at the slaves who were watching him all around, and said loudly, "I have to find a girl to accompany me when I go to the county, don't I?"

Xishi, Niandong County

Ba Le put his hands in his cuffs, and the cold wind was blowing, which did not affect his enthusiasm for shopping at all. There were no brothels or gambling houses in Niandong County, so he walked into a wine shop honestly, followed by several of his slaves. He was guarding at the door, but he was called in again, sat at the same table, and drank with him.

"That beautiful wine lady, come over and order some wine for me." Ba Le greeted.

The little girl who was scooping wine in the corner ran over in a hurry.

"What do you drink, grandpa?"

"The best ones, give me two taels." Ba Le was not polite, anyway, someone helped to pay.

The girl smiled like a flower, and hurriedly went back to make wine for him. When the girl came again, there were already ten kinds of wine on the plate, and the ten wine glasses were filled to the brim.

"Girl, I bought so much wine from you, I don't want to chat with you." Ba Le stroked his stubble and asked with a smile, like a rambunctious drinker.

The girl smiled, covered her face and replied, "This is against the rules."

"What's wrong with the rules?" Ba Le pulled the girl to sit beside him, "I don't do anything unruly."

He ordered all the good wines in one go, so he was naturally a wealthy buyer, so he definitely couldn't refuse, but this is Niandong County, where the laws and regulations are strict, so he dared not do anything over the top.

The girl sat down and helped Baler divide the beef: "I don't know how to serve you. As long as you don't do anything beyond the boundaries, you will just follow your arrangement."

"I'm so bored recently, I just want to chat with someone." Baler looked at the slaves who followed him, and seemed to say deliberately: "Some guys you treat them as human beings, and they treat themselves as slaves, and you can't talk to them together." .”

What Bale said is true. During the days of staying in Wei Mansion, it can be seen that Wei Xin treats the slaves very preferentially. It is not good to have nothing in life, but it can be said that it is preferential treatment, but he keeps reminding them mentally. They were born as slaves, inferior to others, as long as the rich and powerful were served well, they would have a bright future. If slaves could not do their job well, then there would be rewards and punishments.Under such constant brainwashing, the slaves in Wei's mansion were loyal to Wei Xin, and even the punishment would become a willing thing, and they would not complain about Wei Xin.

"Master, what do you want to talk about?" the girl asked.

"As I said just now, I've been staying in Niandong County recently, and I'm so bored. The world is different, but if there are any strange things, if there are any, please tell me."

Seeing that the master didn't use his brains, the girl was no longer as defensive as before, she said: "What strange things can happen in this small place, but I heard that a strange thing happened in the west recently."

The so-called west is the king's capital Qipeng, and when he dared not call the city directly, he used the word west.

"tell me the story?"

"Jiang City has been haunted by ghosts recently."

Ba Le almost laughed out loud when he heard that, the old guys living in Jiangcheng are all immortal old ghosts, and it is only said that they are haunting others, Jiangcheng is haunted by ghosts, that is really rare.

"Come on, tell me." Baler took out a glass of wine and brought it to the girl.

The girl took a sip, still a little embarrassed, she said: "I also heard from the merchants in the west that there have been women crying outside the gate of Jiangcheng City every night these days, and the soldiers guarding the city went out to patrol what? Didn't see it either."

"Maybe it's just some kind of wild beast," Balak said.

"No." The girl said, "A lot of soldiers who were watching the night died, and even if I asked him to investigate the cause of death, he couldn't find out why."

If it was just a woman crying, it might just be a rumor, but there is nothing wrong with a dead soldier. Fu Kingdom’s military registration is strictly managed. If there are rumors about a dead soldier, it is probably true. Baler couldn’t help but grow up. After thinking about it, he said again: "Then did you say why?"

The girl lowered her voice and said: "Just say that King Fu of Jiangcheng gave a beauty Bai Ling, and that beauty was not convinced, so she went to Jiangcheng."

"Oh? Which beauty is it?" Baler handed over another glass of wine.

The girl drank half a glass this time, and said: "I heard that she is the daughter of the Zhenyingbo family in Zhenyang County. Anyway, who knows about the nobles?"

Ba Le smiled and toasted the girl again, thinking, that Zhen Ying Bo is also a man with the surname Jiang, and his father also succeeded as a family man when he was young, how could he easily execute his daughter?

"Yes, the affairs of the nobles are only suitable for jokes after dinner." Baler drank another cup by himself: "Let's talk about the affairs of our common people, and say that there are beautiful widows around here."

"Go, go, go." Seeing that Ba Le talked about something, the girl's face also changed, and she immediately said: "Women follow the three rules and four virtues, and the beautiful widow is also the widow of the family, so don't make up your mind."

Bale even felt like he had returned to Tianping City. Although Tianping City is pedantic, it didn't say that women must keep filial piety for their dead husbands, and there were few people who remarried in a low-key way. For example, Chang Lan, who died twice, would be punished equally. Refers to marriage.

"Then Niandong County is really nothing interesting." Ba Le said with disgust.

The people of Niandong County are ignorant, and they are proud of the city. The girl was upset when Bale said this, she drank the wine in front of her in one gulp, and said, "I have followed the rules in Niandong County for many years. But the folk customs are very good, even the slaves have clothes to wear and food to eat, so they won’t freeze to death on the streets.”

Balak thought to himself that all the people who were really frozen died outside the city, and a few who managed to escape into the city were also killed by the rod. There was no such thing, but everyone couldn't see it, or pretended that it didn't happen.

"Isn't that the case with slaves in other counties?"

"The slaves in other counties are not so lucky." The girl drank another glass of wine and said, "Recently, the slaves in the nearby Fuyang County have become enemies with their masters, and there has been a lot of trouble."
