Mighty and Majestic Concubine Wan Gui

Chapter 191 Mrs. Dong's Difficulty in Settling Home

In the simplified version, there are only ten laws and regulations for foreigners to abide by.

[Murder for no reason, those who maliciously kill souls and practice evil methods will be sent to hell. 】

None of the three had any objection to this one, and they thought it was very good.

[Punishments for seeking revenge and fighting to death are decided according to the circumstances, see "Da Zhuang Law" for details. 】

Yu Qian: "Well, the writing is very detailed."

He Mingjue nodded: "Yes."

[Theft is strictly prohibited in the city, and those who steal will be punished with hard labor. 】

[There are official prostitutes in the city, and those who rape women and men will be punished as official prostitutes. 】

The amount of information in this sentence is too large, and the Yus and his wife and He Mingjue were lost in thought. Although they knew every word, they felt that there was something wrong when they were connected together.Wait a minute, the person who rapes the women should be a man, at least he must be a male, a male... How can this kind of person be punished as an official prostitute?May I ask what happened to the man in the back?

What happened to the civilian man, was it a man or a woman?How do you punish?etc!

The two looked at each other in shock, He Mingjue couldn't hold back, and muttered, "Could it be that what I saw outside the city was..."

Yu Qian quickly waved his hand: "Brother He went to investigate on his own, I don't want to know about it."

Mrs. Dong held back and said nothing. In fact, she wanted to say that this matter is fair, fair and upright, and more deterrent than killing the man. It should be enough to warn those who have evil intentions not to do bad things. Then why would anyone What about doing bad things?Could it be that he was lucky and thought that he would not be caught?

He Mingjue snorted and said: "Forget it, what does this kind of thing have to do with me? Even in the underworld, I only care about arresting people, regardless of conviction and criminal law." The underworld also has separation of powers!Those who arrest people should only arrest people, those who convict should only convict, and those who use punishment should only use punishment.

Yu Qian remembered that he was afraid that his wife would not dare to go to that kind of place, so he smiled slightly, lowered his head and continued to look.

[Immortals don’t stick to their bodies, and demon kings like fishing, so please don’t provoke them lightly. Those who commit the above crimes will be guilty. 】

[There is a special fighting platform for duels, do not fight on the street, offenders will be fined. 】

"It's really meticulous."

Yu Qian fell into deep thought: "Yes. Blocking is worse than sparse. Although there are many things that are not allowed to be done, we have also done good counseling." But I still want to know what is going on.

Mrs. Dong gave him a sideways look, knowing that he was curious, and pretended not to know.

【Everyone who comes to the Zhuang Kingdom receives the care and pity of His Majesty and Princess, and must also respect His Majesty, Princess, and the fifty princes. 】

"The princess is in front of the prince? You really deserve to be the princess of Jian Guo."

"Fifty princes?"

"It's His Majesty's fifty younger brothers."

【Princess Xuanzhen has supervised the country for hundreds of years. Anyone who dares to slander the 'rooster sitting in the morning', no matter in public or in private, will be expelled from the country. 】

Yu Qian's complexion changed: "Whatever is discussed in private, will be known by others?" Doesn't that mean that there are also Jinyiwei here, monitoring what everyone says.Sure enough, under the appearance of Haiyanhe Qing singing and dancing, there are some dark eyes and ears hidden.

After all, He Mingjue knows more: "Maybe it's a magic weapon, you haven't seen it before, there is a magic weapon that covers a certain area, set up to monitor certain things, capture a word or a thought, once touched This restriction will be delivered to the yamen." He tried to speak more clearly: "Just like the statues in the temple, the statues of gods and Buddhas all have such magical effects, and most of them are set with 'sincerity' and 'sincerity'. Integrity and kindness are the two conditions, only prayers that meet these two conditions at the same time can be sent to the gods and Buddhas, most of the greedy prayers of bad people can be blocked, and the gods and Buddhas will not be heard, so as not to be disturbed."

"Oh~"*2

He Mingjue said: "Those bad people who get their wishes fulfilled rely on their own hard work. As for the good people, they actually have to rely on their own hard work."

[Anyone is obliged to cooperate with the investigation and summons of the Ministry of Public Affairs. 】

Yu Qian: Wen Xiangu's husband, rumored to be quite strict.

Mrs. Dong is not worried at all. She has confidence in her own conduct, is low-key and dignified, doesn't talk nonsense, and never causes trouble.

He Mingjue said: "The people in the Ministry of Public Affairs are familiar with me. There is no eighteen hells in Zhuangguo. They often escort prisoners to our place to be tortured. I am often in charge of handing over."

The last one is: 【Prohibition of preaching. 】

The three people who believe in heaven and earth are even more indifferent, and recalled carefully, um, these ten items have been memorized.

After filling in the last box, I ate with peace of mind.

The sound insulation of the private room is very good, and the voices of people coming and going outside the room cannot be heard.

There is a table of dishes with both meat and vegetables, the portion is large, and the taste is not bad. It only costs 258 Wen at the checkout, which is 58 Wen for one tael.

"Ma'am, it's almost the same as in our house." "Yes, I feel at ease in this way. I just don't know how much the house costs."

Yu Qian was stunned for a while, then suddenly laughed: "Ma'am, we are going to start from scratch again, and we have no ancestral property at all." Originally, you were the daughter of the county magistrate, and my father also left some fields and houses for me, but now He left his hometown and came here without any property.

Mrs. Dong said softly: "Expose to the frost, cut the thorns to make a place of size."

Yu Qian nodded: "Yeah." He paused: "I dare not say it, it's not difficult to get a few thousand taels of silver and let you practice here quietly for decades." I have to go back to assist the emperor, I can only leave you here to practice slowly - you have to investigate the folk customs and prices first, I don't know how long you will have to practice before you can become a ghost fairy.Well, I can only travel between the two places. Fortunately, I float very fast.

Mrs. Dong said differently: "Does your husband want to pawn something?"

Yu Qian hesitated for a moment, and said his plan truthfully: "Silver here is cheap, but the quality of the silver is the same. If I take the silver here and go back to the Ming Dynasty to buy gold, and then use the gold from the Ming Dynasty to buy silver." , as long as you pour a few hands, you can make a lot of money."

One tael of gold to buy 100 taels of silver, and then go back and exchange 100 taels of silver for two taels of gold, and then come back and exchange it for 400 taels of silver. The huge price difference and the cost of about zero will quickly double my family property.

Yes, the basis of the business that Taifu Yu is going to do is that he travels back and forth tens of thousands of miles, as long as he floats, there is no need to hire helpers, no need to hire cars and horses, there is no cost on the road, pure profit!What's more, he has more than just a tael of gold!

If you make money by using the exchange ratio of silver to copper coins of 1/1000 and 1/200, you can earn faster, but it is not easy to transport.

Mrs. Dong looked at her secretly, she didn't expect her husband to be so thoughtful. He just came here, and he found out about such an important matter before he inquired carefully.

He Mingjue's eyes lit up: "Hey! It's amazing! I never thought I could do this! Ting Yi, take me a share of this business~ I can send ghost soldiers to help you transport gold and silver."

Yu Qian said in a low voice: "Although this business makes money, it will disrupt the market. If you make too much money, it will alarm the government..." This is really strange, I would be afraid of alarming the government, but it is the truth.

He Mingjue nodded: "So, we have to check the law to see if it will be allowed, or go around in circles and buy and sell goods."

"Ah."

After dinner, the three of them went to Jingzhaoyin to go through the formalities together, and no one forgot that the purpose of coming to Zhuangguo was to allow Mrs. Dong to live reasonably and legally in the form of a ghost for 100 years.

Most of the pedestrians on the road are walking on foot, and the city is obviously full of non-mortals, as can be seen from the strange clothes and colorful hair colors.

Red haired, yellow haired, green haired, blue haired.

They all walked on the ground firmly, and did not fly in the sky with their swords.Some people walked slowly, some people ran fast, and saw men and women shopping hand in hand, and a butterfly with a human head, which was flying around with an unstable center of gravity, and finally some people couldn't stand it. He grabbed his wings and said, "Where are you going, I'll take you there! Oh my god, I can't fly, I'm worried to see you fly!"

There was a girl with big eyes who was holding a pack of carrots as a snack, eating them, and giggling beside her.

Yu Qian and Mrs. Yu were taken aback by what they saw, but they didn't discuss anything, they didn't say anything - good education is not to talk about people's appearance!He pays more attention to the waists of the men, women and children who come and go. The waists are not jade belts and leather belts, but brocade and embroidered belts. Most of the belts have a knife hanging or inserted.Men and women who are strong and strong and walk like dragons and tigers mostly wear first knives, long knives, and scimitars. The heads of the knives are not tied with tassels. With a long sword on his back, a long sword robe (tassel) is hung on the sword.

He immediately breathed a sigh of relief, he was wearing the golden knife given by the fairy girl, it is always strange for a scholar to wear a knife.Well, ladies don't have skirt knives... wait a minute, skirt knives are worn by unmarried women, right?I am not sure.Well, the folk customs here are somewhat similar to those of the Tang Dynasty, open, martial, and heavenly.

Mrs. Dong was a little afraid of these colorful human-shaped monsters. Based on the stories she had read before she got married, monsters either seduce people, eat people, or seduce people before eating them. They are not kind after all.

If she were to be left here alone, with no relatives to rely on, and unable to live in seclusion, it would be a bit scary.

Captain He Du asked: "Ting Yi, do you know the way? Have you been here?"

"I've never been here before. Didn't Brother He just go straight forward?"

The two looked at each other and smiled. People who often come and go to the palace know that the yamen that handle affairs is surrounded by the palace, so it is convenient to enter the palace to report matters. Not only the six departments are here, but the yamen of the nine admirals is also next to the palace, and Jing Zhaoyin is also next to it. .Why ask for directions, just go to the palace and look for it.

On both sides of the wide avenue in front of you are yamen, tall and mighty yet desolate, not even a single bird, the gatekeeper at the gate is sitting cross-legged on the ground, exhaling true qi, the gate of the yamen is closed, but the side door is open Looking at it, I could see that there were no documents on the table inside, and the little official was sitting quietly and reading scriptures.

The three walked from the beginning to the end, saw the plaques of the three provinces and six ministries, and had a little understanding of the political system here.

Yu Qian said in a low voice, "I didn't see the yamen of the Ministry of Public Affairs."

He Mingjue said: "They are not here, I believe, well, I heard that they are on a certain street in the south of the city."

While talking, I saw the Jingzhao Yamen, the gate was covered with gold on a blue background, the writing was clear, and only the noise could be heard from a distance.

Walking in and listening, the expressions on the faces of the three people suddenly changed.

"Blooming on the bar, fooling around, give money give money."

"Damn it, you're cheating again!"

"Fraud and reconciliation are not reconciliation!"

"Listen to me, Qiaoer, how energetic the whistle is!"

"Tweet Tweet"

"Okay, what a little yellow chicken."

"You should look at those ears, this is an oriole."

"Flip one, oops, wrong, wrong"

"That's right, you don't understand!"

"You don't understand."

"(.-ω-)zzz"

"click click"

"crunch"

"Chi Chi Chi Chi"

"Good words! Good words!"

"A pen is like a god!"

"It's not that I'm exaggerating you, this stroke is really amazing!"

"Yeah, what I drew was a bird."

He Mingjue and Yu Qian's obsessive-compulsive disorder attack together, the two workaholics simply can't allow themselves to have such dereliction of duty and misbehaving subordinates during working hours!To explode!To explode!It's going to be a big bang!

Mrs. Dong sighed faintly, thinking how peaceful this place is, the front door of the yamen is deserted and the traffic is sparse, and the petty officials are laughing and playing.She tugged on her husband's sleeve, and asked softly, "Husband, do we want to prepare money?"

The two barrels calmed down, remembering that the strong dragon does not overwhelm the top snake, and remembering that he is on a long vacation/dead, he is no longer a strong dragon, and remembering that this is not under his jurisdiction, so he walked in calmly.

A group of clerks are idle, playing cards and mahjong in the courtyard outside the lobby, walking birds and fighting crickets, turning flower ropes and kicking shuttlecocks, sleeping late and eating melon seeds, writing calligraphy and painting.

As soon as someone came in, it seemed that foreign ghosts came here to do business. They cheered up happily, tidied up the cards, covered the birdcage, and put away the flower ropes: "What do you guys want to do?" business?" "Are you going to sue?" "Are you going to settle down?" "Are you going to open a shop?"

It seemed so boring that he was very enthusiastic when he met a few people, but there seemed to be something wrong.

Yu Qian said: "There are a few laborers, my wife is newly mourned, and I want to settle in Zhuangguo and stay together for a long time."

Two of the enthusiastic and boring officials laughed, and hurriedly said: "Settling, we are in charge! Come, come, talk in the room, this little lady just died, don't bask in the sun too much, it's not good. "

"Guixian, please come inside, don't be polite, our place is so boring all day long, it's rare for anyone to come."

There was a stack of "The Law of Dazhuang" on the table that was borrowed to be read by others, and almost no one cared about it. He Mingjue went over and took a copy, sat by the side and began to read it slowly. He thought he could read the book without being disturbed, but everyone else Come around, pour tea for him, talk to him, and ask him about the situation in foreign countries.

"Please sit down." The two officials sat down with them respectively, and then introduced themselves: "My surname is An, An Heizhu, and Mo Zhu's black bamboo." "My surname is Zhou, Zhou Tong, the red one."

"Are the Xian couple going to settle down in Zhuang Country?"

Yu Qian hurriedly said: "I have already cultivated into a ghost fairy with the help of incense, so I don't need to settle down. My wife doesn't have much time, and I want to settle down as soon as possible."

"Okay, okay, I'll do the paperwork for you two."

Yu Qian didn't want to change his nationality yet, and reiterated: "It's just that my wife is here, and I still have some things to take care of."

An Heizhu looked down and hesitated for a moment: "Brother, with all due respect, it is not easy for Mrs. Madam to settle down alone."

"Ah? I would like to hear more about it."

"Zhuangguo allows ordinary ghosts to stay for a long time. There are two reasons. One is that the family is bound by them, and the ghosts are reluctant to leave. The other is that the ghosts want to stay in the world for revenge. Foreign ghosts want to come and settle. One has to have a skill, either one has practice, one has talent, or one has a noble morality that makes people move, and one must be able to serve Zhuang Guo and add luster to us."

Zhou Tong explained: "For example, my brother, you see that you are a god of incense, obviously you have both morality and morality. If you want to settle down, it's okay. After you settle down, you will hold your wife back and prevent her from leaving , that's fine, but...after all, it's a legal restriction, and there's nothing we can do about it."

An Heizhu laughed suddenly: "There is another way. The imperial school run by Princess Xuanzhen is recruiting students. If Madam Xuanzhen can enroll, this is naturally not a problem."

"Oh? My wife hasn't practiced Taoism yet, but she was proficient in writing and ink during her lifetime. Can I have a try?"

An Heizhu enthusiastically recommended that they must go to Taixue to have a try!The entry test is easy!

Princess Xuanzhen does not require much foundation, she is just trying to run a school!

Once selected into Taixue, it is equivalent to the emperor's disciple!

Our Majesty is lazy in government affairs. For hundreds of years, Princess Xuanzhen supervised the country, and the six ministries assisted the government. Once Princess Xuanzhen's eyes fell into her eyes, it would be incredible!

Make steady progress and go straight to the sky!

Mrs. Dong's heart was moved, and she whispered: "Husband, I want to try it."

Yu Qian agreed without hesitation: "Okay. I'm sorry, my wife will try it first. If you fail to enroll, Yu will come back and get naturalized."

The two petty officials sent them out of the house with a smile, without complaining at all, and their attitude was scary, which made Yu Qian even more suspicious.

He Mingjue held the thick legal book and was reluctant to let go: "Brothers, lend me this book for two days, or you can sell it to me."

"Okay, one tael of silver."

He Mingjue threw down the silver and went out, when someone shouted from behind: "Lieutenant He, stay a while, I'll get you a new one."

Soon, Captain He was holding a new book and floated beside Yu Qian: "Is it done?"

"No, I think my wife's practice is superficial." Yu Qian said in a low voice: "To be honest, I think they are a little strange."

Lieutenant He Du stretched out his hand and pulled out a hook from his waist, hung himself on his belt, held the book in his hands and read it without raising his head: "Too enthusiastic?"

"Correct."

Mrs. Dong said softly: "They seem to be looking at the golden knife of the husband."

Yu Qian took a deep look at her, nodded and said, "Exactly, this makes me a little worried." Regarding the relationship between the Ministry of Public Affairs and the Governor of the Ministry of Public Affairs and Aunt Wen Xiangu, I don't want to interfere with the conflicts caused by other people's marriage changes middle.

A woman's jealousy of Hai Shengbo can at most kill a few concubines, beat her husband up, go out and steal a man, or even murder her own husband. If a capable man is jealous of Hai Shengbo, it doesn't have to cause much trouble.Along the way, I felt that many people were watching me secretly, even the people in the yamen respected this knife.As expected, Wen Xiangu is a wealthy family member, very powerful here, it's a pity.

I was unprepared and walked around the city with this golden knife hanging around. This is regarded as forming a party for personal gain, isn't it?

Without any hesitation, Yu Qian found a clean alley and dragged the lady into it. He took a golden knife from his waist three times and tied it around her waist: "If anyone asks, just say it was a gift from Aunt Wen Xiangu." Yours. You've seen her and know her face and temper."

Mrs. Dong asked in a low voice: "What's the matter? Husband, why are you nervous?"

"Wen Xiangu's husband is the governor of the Ministry of Public Affairs, and the Ministry of Public Affairs is equivalent to Jin Yiwei. Wen Xiangu's marriage is not proper... She also gave me a golden knife. Although it is for killing thieves, I'm afraid it's hard to say." Yu Qian paused , a little embarrassed: "Ma'am, don't worry, I respect her as a teacher."

"I know."

Lieutenant He gave a thumbs up beside him: "Fine enough!" Then he began to look through the law on marriage.

Along the way, Mrs. Dong was a little uncomfortable with the knife hanging on her waist. Although she saw many girls wearing precious swords as decorations, she still didn't know where to put her awkward hands.Is it holding on to the belt, or is it on the handle of the knife?

Occasionally, passers-by shouted at her with bright eyes: "What a knife!" "What a beautiful knife!"

Always startled her.

Mrs. Dong said in a low voice: "Husband, let's go shopping for clothes first. This dress doesn't match this knife." The color doesn't match, the pattern is old, and the style is very different from the current fashion. This is not good.

Yu Qian:? ? ?

The autumn-colored tuanhua clothes go well with the golden knife inlaid with jewels, ah!Your face has become very young, and little girls can't wear autumn-colored clothes.

He said with a low smile: "It is said that people live forever and the grass and trees fall in autumn, but you and I are different."

(Article [-]: You two are perennial woody plants hahahaha)

Outside the largest and most gorgeous clothing store, there are many novel fabrics that make Mrs. Dong's eyes shine. They are gorgeous and arrogant, and the clothes must look good.Go in and have a look, ah!On the left is a group of small spiders spinning desperately on the wooden frame, and on the right is a group of silkworm babies surging and spinning silk on the wooden board.

It's the spider essence and the silkworm essence who are the shopkeepers!

Of course, they don't have sharp eyes, they can see through the real bodies of the two beautiful and indistinguishable humanoid shopkeepers at a glance, but they can clearly see the certificates behind them.

Yu Qian was worried that his wife was afraid and wanted to quit and buy clothes in another place.

Mrs. Dong is not afraid of fleshy silkworm babies. She has never been afraid of fleshy insects since she was a child. She also raised silkworms and weaved cloth by herself because of her virtuousness and poverty. She is a little afraid of spiders, but that's okay.I wanted to leave at first, but then I thought about it, there are people living here mixed with monsters, how long can I hide?Why don't you try to talk to the goblin, the goblin with the certificate will be better after all, and approached very calmly: "Shopkeeper, how do you sell this material?"

The spider spirit grinned and rubbed his hands: "You are looking at the best material we have here. A piece of ten feet costs three taels of silver. A meter of cloth costs five dollars. The finished garment costs an additional one hundred dollars."

"Ma'am, don't worry, my clothes are flawless. They are worn out, scratched and faded within three years. Just take them back, and we'll mend them for you so you won't notice."

"If you have any favorite pattern and color, as long as you can produce a drawing, you can do it. No matter how detailed it is."

"There are also cheap ones here, one hundred yuan and one zhang, but they are plain, and dyes cost money, right?"

Yu Qian:? ? ?

Wait a moment!How is this calculated?How cheap is it?speak slowly...

Mrs. Dong was quite moved, the price was not expensive, she immediately chose a beautiful color, and ordered three sets of clothes and two skirts, one was a spliced ​​paddy field dress, one was a blue shirt with narrow sleeves, and the other was a black-bottomed bluegrass , curly grass pattern, a light yellow skirt, and a plain white skirt from Suihan Sanyou.

After calculating the price, I added a silk belt as a gift, a total of six taels of silver.

Then there is the time period when they sit next to each other, drink tea and eat snacks, and watch the spider spirit crazy show operate.

When the spider is finely cut, you don’t need pins, just use a few hands to press it left and right, and cut it with a few hands. You don’t need a needle or thread to cut it. You just put a fat silkworm on it, and the fat silkworm crawled around the edge, clicking and clicking. One bite and the stitching is done.

In less than a cup of tea, three light gowns with narrow sleeves and two skirts were made, and the store made three purses and two pairs of shoes out of leftover materials.

Mrs. Dong also had no choice but to reward her with a tael of silver, borrowed the inner room to change her clothes, tied up her long hair with blue silk, changed the old lady's bun at the back of her head into a pretty young woman's hairstyle, and hung the golden knife on the silk tapestry. On the belt, from head to toe, is indescribably youthful and pretty.

This kind of attire is lost to everyone at the gate of Taixue.

Since it was the imperial school run by the princess, she didn't shy away from any differences between men and women, so she bought a pen and ink outside the door and went to sign up for the exam.

"This is the test paper, and this is the room number. Go in and answer the questions, and hand them in here after you finish the answer. Relatives and friends are waiting outside the door and are not allowed to go in to help." The examiner stared at the golden knife on her waist with a blank expression: "Wen What are Shang Shan's orders?"

"No."

"Hmph, let's go."

Mrs. Dong didn't bother to guess whether "Wen Shangshan is Wen Xiangu" or "Does this person have a grudge against Wen Xiangu?" ' and other problems, when I entered the room, I saw that it was very simple, with only one table and one stool, and there was no decoration in the room.

Unfold the test paper on the table:
