The empress is wild and cool, and I'll help her secure her throne
Chapter 11 Selling Myself to Seal My Father's Corpse
When Ye Qianxuan heard the sound, he opened the window like many other corpse tailors.
There was a stunningly beautiful woman, pulling a wooden cart with her slender body.
The hemp rope left traces of blood on her thin shoulders, but she seemed to be completely unaware of it. She walked step by step on the Corpse Street and kept shouting!
On the wooden cart, a corpse was covered with tattered linen, only lightly covering the head.
The girl was wearing a dirty silk brocade dress and had a wooden board around her neck with the words "I sell myself to sew my father's corpse" written in blood. She shouted hard, hoping to attract the attention of the corpse tailors on the street.
Ye Qianxuan shook his head and closed the window like many other corpse tailors.
It's obvious that this is a troublemaker.
She was dressed in brocade, spoke in a soft and gentle tone, and was obsessed with ensuring that her elders were buried properly. She must be the daughter of a wealthy family who grew up in a large courtyard.
The corpse on the cart was most likely a criminal official, which was why he ended up like this.
Most of the deaths of officials were caused by factional disputes.
Sewing the corpse of a criminal official caused endless trouble.
First, he would be hated by his political enemies. It would be easier for them to kill a small corpse tailor than to kill an ant.
Secondly, there is no benefit at all. The criminal officials’ houses are basically searched and their property is confiscated, so they definitely do not have a penny on them.
As for selling oneself to sew one's father's corpse, it is completely empty talk.
The system of collective responsibility was implemented in this era.
After being convicted of an offense, males were sent to the execution ground and females were sent to the Jiaofangsi.
After the corpse tailor sewed up the body of the rich girl, the most he enjoyed was a night of passion.
No corpse tailor would be willing to get involved in so much trouble just for a night of passion.
The girl saw that the windows of all the corpse-sewing shops were closed again, and her voice was filled with tears.
Perhaps because she was tired, she knelt down outside Room No. 3 Huangzi, covering her face and crying.
"Shut up!"
The sound of galloping horses was heard, and it seemed to stop outside Ye Qianxuan's door.
Ye Qianxuan felt puzzled.
The Eastern Zhou Dynasty stipulated that after curfew, no more than five people were allowed to travel together!
It's almost curfew, why is Corpse Street still so bustling!
He opened the window a crack and saw three or four young men in fancy clothes surrounding the girl who had sold herself to sew her father's corpse. They didn't touch her but teased her wantonly:
"Hey! Isn't this Miss Chu Yao, the daughter of the Imperial Horse Supervisor? How did you end up selling yourself to sew up your father's corpse?"
"Haha! Third brother, stop teasing her! She's no longer the high-ranking daughter she used to be. Now she's just a lowly servant who's about to enter the Imperial Music Bureau!"
"All of us brothers pursued you in the past, but you always refused and pretended to be reserved! When you join the Imperial Music Bureau, I will make all the servants in my mansion favor you!"
This stunning girl was like a trapped deer, protecting herself tightly while holding on to her father's body tightly, but those young masters just stood close to her and mocked her, kicking the corpse from time to time!
She was so anxious that she cried uncontrollably, her face full of fear.
These young men laughed out loud.
Nearby, a young man in brocade clothes was riding on a steed, watching the scene like a spectator, and then he waved his hand:
"Strip her for me! How can a lowly slave like her deserve to wear the same finery as me?"
The other young men who dismounted responded with a chuckle:
"Okay, Master!"
As a good young man of the new era, Ye Qianxuan felt really uncomfortable seeing this scene.
But he is not a brainless saint - his strength is too weak!
The stinging pain on his neck reminded him that he could barely protect himself and there was no way he could get involved with this nobleman's attempts to smooth things over!
The woman caught a glimpse of Ye Qianxuan's slightly opened window, and as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw, she shouted with almost all her strength:
"Please, the craftsman at Shop No. 3, please be merciful and sew up my body. I still have a jade hairpin from my coming-of-age ceremony, and I'd like to give it to the craftsman!"
Upon hearing this, these young masters laughed out loud:
"Hahaha! This slut is actually thinking about sewing up a corpse for her eunuch father!"
"I wonder which corpse-stitching dog dares to come out and help her!"
"Shop No. 3, close your windows tight! If you dare to watch again, we'll skin you alive!"
Ye Qianxuan opened the door with a thought, and then kicked the young man closest to the girl three meters away!
The girl was already extremely desperate, but a handsome young man appeared in front of her like a hero and blocked all the troubles for her.
The woman was a little dazed for a moment, just staring blankly... staring...
"You're such a cadaver sewing dog, how dare you come out and confront me?"
The young man on the horse was slightly stunned, then spoke with his eyes wide open in anger.
"My name is Ye Qianxuan, the corpse seamstress of Room No. 3 of the Yellow Room appointed by the Empress. I apologize to you, young master." Ye Qianxuan bowed, controlled his temper, spoke kindly, and first revealed his background.
Ye Qianxuan knew the behavior of these young masters in Dong Zhou from the original owner's memory!
To sum it up in two idioms - arrogant and domineering, and rampant!
Rape of women is not a problem, and disregard for human life occurs frequently.
For the wives of imprisoned officials who have fallen on hard times, it is even more of a blow!
In any case, the imperial court would not cause trouble for the court officials for the lives of a few civilians or the wives of convicted officials.
Therefore, in the eyes of these young masters, bullying others is fun!
The only ones who can defeat the second-generation officials are the second-generation officials.
Therefore, Ye Qianxuan took the lead in revealing her identity as the empress, which at least gave herself an official status.
Although the Huangzihao corpse tailor was only of the lower ninth rank, they would still be wary of those who also received salaries from the court.
Because the waters in the capital are deep!
After hearing this, the young master was indeed stunned and asked, "Ye Qianxuan, the one who sewed up Liu Zaidao's demon corpse?"
"That's right!" Ye Qianxuan breathed a sigh of relief.
But the young master's face suddenly darkened, and he said sinisterly: "Cut off his limbs and turn him into a human pig!"
Ye Qianxuan was stunned for a moment - damn, it doesn’t work!
Those young masters took out daggers from their arms and rushed directly towards Ye Qianxuan!
In the capital, ordinary people are not allowed to carry swords. Violators will be punished with eighty strokes of the cane!
Gathering in groups with knives, beheading immediately!
But after the officials, they are not considered ordinary people!
In fact, the laws of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty seemed to be implicitly supporting these young masters in doing evil!
Fortunately, these young men looked like descendants of civil officials and had no accomplishments in physical skills. They just wanted to rely on the sharp weapons in their hands to cut off Ye Qianxuan's limbs!
Ye Qianxuan has now reached the peak of external strength, and defeating these people is no problem at all.
In no time, he kicked them all to the ground.
The young man in brocade clothes on the horse frowned immediately and said in a cold voice: "Corpse-stitching dog! Do you know who they are beating? They are all from the Ministry of Revenue..."
Ye Qianxuan sneered before the young man in brocade clothes finished speaking - let's go all the way!
He stepped out directly and headed straight for the young man in brocade clothes. He jumped high in front of the other's terrified face, and then kicked him off his horse!
The young man in brocade clothes suddenly bent his body like a shrimp, and foul things came out of his mouth!
Ye Qianxuan kicked him a few more times without changing his expression, and the young man who was kicked screamed:
"Corpse dog! Not only did you dare to hit them, you even dared to hit me!"
"Do you know who I am!"
"My father, Li Mingda!"
boom!
Ye Qianxuan kicked his face on the filth he had just vomited out, making this guy shut up completely!
"If you still want to be beaten, keep shouting. If you don't want to be beaten, just give me a thumbs up!" Ye Qianxuan said coldly.
"woo woo woo woo!"
At first, the young man in brocade clothes kept making sounds, but because his face was covered in filth, he couldn't say anything!
After a stalemate of several minutes, the young man in brocade clothes had no choice but to give Ye Qianxuan a thumbs up.
Only then did Ye Qianxuan let go of the young man in brocade clothes.
The young man in brocade clothes stood up and silently walked to the side of the horse. After climbing onto it, he shouted angrily, "You corpse-stitching dog from the Yellow Shop No. 3, I will remember you! I will cut you into pieces! Go!"
He didn't dare stay for a moment and rode away on his horse.
Today he thought he was just here to bully this lowly maid who was about to enter the Imperial Music Bureau, and since curfew was approaching, he only called a few younger brothers who were the sons of officials, and did not bring any entourage!
But I didn't expect to suffer such a big loss!
Those young masters also got up from the ground, looked at Ye Qianxuan fiercely, and left one after another.
The windows of the corpse tailors around were also quickly closed!
It seems that this young man in brocade clothes is from an important background. Ye Qianxuan is probably dead, so he must not get involved with them!
Tang Xiaohui, who hadn't left Room 4 yet, witnessed the entire incident and couldn't help but clap her hands and laugh.
"Haha! Fortunately, we signed the blood oath of non-recognition tonight!"
"Otherwise, I would have been implicated by this ungrateful bastard!"
"This Ye Qianxuan, is he just looking for death?"
Ye Haomo said with an embarrassed look on his face: "Alas! It seems that my brother is going to be in trouble! I really hope that I can enter the court as an official as soon as possible so that I can protect my brother!"
Ye Nianxi frowned and said, "I will ask His Majesty for mercy when I meet him in the Honglu Temple tomorrow!"
"This Ye Qianxuan is really becoming more and more ungrateful!"
"I just came back, and I, the wife of the King of Zhenbei, owe a favor to the Queen of Eastern Zhou!"
