Regret Records of Cultivating a Tyrant

On the first day of the new year, the spring is cold, but the streets of Yong'an are still lively.

From time to time, crackling firecrackers could be heard from other people's yards, startling a few slow-moving little sparrows.

The children wore thick cotton-padded jackets, combed their hair, and followed behind their parents. Two or three got together and ran happily.

Several people who knew Han Shiqing even greeted him.

Han Shiqing had prepared red envelopes a long time ago. They didn't contain much money, but the amount was enough, and they were often sent out along the way.

He was wearing a big red unicorn dark pattern cotton jacket that He Yiran found for him to order from a clothing store. There was a circle of extremely warm white fox fur around the collar. The main jade stone is decorated with three small jade stones on each side, and there is a sachet hanging on the side, which is dressed as a rich man's coquettish bag.

But it doesn't prevent him from being really good-looking, with willow-leaf eyebrows and peach blossom eyes, with red beauty spots dotted between his eyebrows, fair complexion, and beautiful lips. , not only does not look gaudy, but it even brings out his lively and enthusiastic temperament.

Lin Shicheng looked at Han Shiqing for a while, and suddenly had a strange idea.

If Han Shiqing was born as a woman, she must be a goblin who can bring disaster to the country and the people.

Suppressing the weird thoughts in his heart, Lin Shicheng raised his eyebrows and asked Han Shiqing, "Brother Shiqing, how much do you know about Yong'an City?"

"I grew up in Yong'an since I was a child. There are nearly [-] shops in Yong'an, and I know about [-] of them." Han Shiqing asked him, "You said you want me to take you around the city, but you have to have a thought. Let's go somewhere, we've walked aimlessly for a street, and I'm sleepy."

As he spoke, he yawned, with tears streaming down his eyes.

Lin Shicheng wanted to touch the corners of his eyes a little bit.

hold back.

"There is a place I want to go." Lin Shicheng calmed down, smiled at Han Shiqing, and said, "The place I want to go is in Shengpingfang, but I don't know how to get there. Can brother Shiqing lead the way?"

"Shengpingfang?!" Han Shiqing was startled, and almost immediately frowned, "What are you doing at Shengpingfang?"

Han Shiqing was very concerned about what Lin Shicheng said this morning.

He said something in his words as if he knew the secret of Yong'an City, but now he came out, wandered around for a long time without saying anything, and was about to go to Shengpingfang as soon as he opened his mouth. He was really confused by Lin Shicheng.

Where is Shengping Square?

That is the famous Hualiu Square in Yong'an City.Hongyue Tower, Songchun Pavilion opened there, the whole street is filled with the smell of powder, making many dudes linger and forget to return, wishing to stay overnight and enjoy the wonderful life with beauties in their arms.

When he was young, he was only dragged to go there once by his friends who had made friends in the early years, and he never went there again.

He has always hated the thick powdery smell on women, and his own desires are not as strong as those of ordinary men, so he doesn't want to come here to solve the problem. Later, he picked up Jiang Yu, and began to devote himself to raising children, and put himself into it after raising and raising him. I never thought about coming to Shengpingfang again.

"I just want to take a look." Lin Shicheng blinked at him with clear eyes, "What's the matter, brother Shi Qing, can't you?"

Han Shiqing suddenly felt that his thoughts were too dirty, so he quickly suppressed his thoughts, strode away, and returned to him.

"Okay, come with me."

Seeing Han Shiqing's awkward expression, Lin Shicheng smiled and followed quickly.

The two walked southward until they reached the third alley, turned eastward, and arrived at Shengpingfang.

Shengpingfang is located in the southeast corner of Dongshi, with the Huafang Gate on the right, guarded by Yinjia soldiers at the gate, and a moat outside the gate. A passable cable bridge is built on the river, and the rope is connected to the towering tower. If the enemy attacks Once the city is built, the cable bridge can be pulled up, and the enemy can be stopped outside the city at that time. It is a layout that is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

It was still daytime, and there were not many people on the streets of Shengpingfang.

Compared with the sound of firecrackers heard along the way, there is no New Year's atmosphere here at all, but it makes people feel a little bleak.

A woman who had just woken up was leaning against the railing of the second floor of Hongyue Tower in a thin single dress, with black hair on her shoulders, holding a small round fan to cover her yawning mouth, and looking down casually.

Seeing Lin Shicheng and Han Shiqing walking on the road, almond eyes lit up, and a cute cry came.

"Which family is this young master, he looks so handsome~" She didn't care at all about her disheveled clothes, and her pink bellyband was looming, so she lifted her skirt and leaned on the railing, smiling with her chin propped up, "You two young masters I'm afraid it's the first time you come here, we don't open the door during the day, if you want to come to play, I'm afraid you have to wait until the sunset~"

Han Shiqing was dazzled by the pink, and hurriedly turned away.

In some respects, Han Shiqing is a very conservative person, which is one of the reasons why he doesn't like to come to Shengpingfang.

In his father's words, if a woman doesn't cover her body, she has no sense of shame.

Compared with him, Lin Shicheng seemed much calmer. He raised his head and saluted the girl, with a natural smile, and said with the shyness of a young man.

"Girl, we didn't come here to play, we just passed by here to ask the way." He asked, "Do you know how to get to Mo District?"

When the girl heard about Mo District, her face darkened, and her teasing expression stopped.

"My little girl sees that the two gentlemen are dressed in extraordinary clothes, so why do you want to go to the Mo District to make fun of yourself?" She covered her mouth and nose with a fan, narrowed her eyes, "That place is very dirty."

Ink area?

Han Shiqing frowned.

He has lived in Yong'an City for so many years, why hasn't he heard of such a place as Mo District?

Moreover, Lin Shicheng clearly said that he grew up in the south since he was a child, and now he came to Yong'an City and said a place that he didn't even know.

How many secrets does he hide in him?

Lin Shicheng just laughed, "Isn't it Chinese New Year? I want to go there to see an old friend."

The woman froze for a moment, then smiled, "Young master's old friend is really a good friend, and it's a blessing that there is still someone thinking about it during the Chinese New Year."

She pulled back her dress, pointed to the front of the street with a round fan in her hand, "My lord, you only need to go straight along this street, and turn east when you get to the open space. The Mo District is at the southeast corner of Shengpingfang, but it won't take long arrive."

"Thank you for your guidance, miss." Lin Shicheng nodded and said goodbye to her, but stopped halfway, turned around and said to the girl, "Miss, it's very cold in early spring, so don't wear such thin clothes when you come out in the future."

After he finished speaking, he left, but Han Shiqing noticed with sharp eyes that the girl leaning on the railing was stunned for a moment, and then her face flushed, reaching her ears.

"Xiao Lin." Han Shiqing chased him, "Where is Mo District? You said that you grew up in the south, so how could you know a place in Yong'an City that even I don't know?"

"Brother Shi Qing." Lin Shicheng didn't look flustered, but asked, "What is Yong'an in your mind?"

Han Shiqing frowned, not understanding what he meant by asking this,

"Sifang layout, covering an area of ​​98 mu, with a total of [-] squares. There are many shops, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. People in the world don't know what it's like to be sad. How can Yong'an drink to relieve thousands of sorrows?" No answer, Lin Shicheng just continued, "This is In your eyes, Yong'an is a bustling big city, where there is no worry or trouble, and everyone is living a happy life like a fairy."

"But do you know that all you see are appearances. Behind this prosperity, there are bloody bones and blood of the poor buried, and what is covered is the rotten smell of corrupt officials."

When he said this, he clenched his back teeth, his voice was unusually cold, and the hostility in his eyes surprised Han Shiqing.

While talking, the two had already crossed the street and came to the southeast corner of Shengpingfang, Mo District.

"Here we are." Lin Shicheng stood still and said to Han Shiqing, "Brother Shiqing, look, this is Mo District."

What catches the eye is a series of dilapidated shacks, piled up with dirty straw, and the low houses made of mud are full of cracks, as if they may collapse at any time.

Looking inside, it is a crowded narrow road, and a dirty ditch runs through the entire ink area. It is frozen at this time, but it is still covered with old and new garbage that emits a foul smell.

The skinny old dog was tied at the door of a house, and when it saw them coming, it just barked a few weak dogs, and then lay down on the ground again.

A few sporadic people looked out from the room, seeing Han Shiqing's clothes, their eyes could not help but change, their eyes were alert.

As dark as ink, it is hidden in the most corner of the city.

The Mo District, which is composed of filth, dilapidation, disease, and poverty, is a place where rich young masters like Han Shiqing have never set foot.

The sight of this place shocked him, and his face turned pale.

"Brother Shi Qing, come with me." Seeing him in a daze, Lin Shicheng grabbed his hand and pulled him forward, "I'll show you my friend."

Han Shiqing was pulled by him, the boy's hands were warm and strong, his five fingers were long and slender, but his joints were thick, and his palms and joints were covered with thin calluses, which should be caused by long-term weapon training.

Thinking of this, he frowned, and withdrew his hand forcefully.

Lin Shicheng paused, but didn't stop. Instead, he walked straight along the stinky ditch. After a while, he came to a low house. He knocked on the broken wooden door and shouted inside: "Uncle Zhang, Aunt Zhang! , open the door, it's me, Xiaolin."

Han Shiqing heard the sound of quick and quick footsteps from inside, and after a while, the door was opened from the inside. A kind-faced woman poked her head out and smiled immediately when she saw Lin Shicheng.

She said: "Xiao Lin, I was thinking of you here, and you came here, but it was a coincidence."

As she said that, she turned her eyes to Han Shiqing who was next to her. She was really amazed by Han Shiqing's appearance, blinked her eyes a few times, and then asked, "Who is this young master?"

Lin Shicheng directly pointed out Han Shiqing's identity to the woman, "He is the young son of Zhenbei General Han Jingyu and General Han's family. His name is Han Shiqing, and he is also my friend."

Hearing the word Zhenbei General, the woman's face changed slightly. She pulled Lin Shicheng aside and asked in a low voice, "Xiao Lin, what do you mean by bringing the people from Zhenbei General's Mansion?"

"Don't worry, Aunt Zhang, I just brought him here this time to let him see something, and I won't reveal anything else."

"Okay then." The woman sighed and pushed him a little: "You are really brave!"

After finishing speaking, she opened the creaking wooden door, and smiled at Han Shiqing, "It turns out that he is the son of the general's family. If you don't dislike my humble room, please come in quickly."

Han Shiqing quickly waved his hands, "Don't dislike it, don't dislike it, I'm the one who bothered you."
