The Emperor's Man [Transmigration Book]
Chapter 33
After questioning the people passing by, Chen Qing searched all the way to Rong Liang's mansion.After knocking on the door, the concierge immediately opened the door.
"Who are you?"
Chen Qing replied: "Hi, I'm here to find Rong Liang, you just tell him that your name is Chen Qing."
The concierge looked Chen Qing up and down, and then saw Xiaozi dressed in eunuch uniform: "Then you wait here for a while."
After the door was closed, Chen Qing glanced at Xiaozi who was following him: "You must come out with me, it will be difficult if you want to go back in the future."
The younger son didn't hesitate much: "The slave was promoted after serving the master. The younger son is grateful in his heart. Wherever the master goes, the younger son will go there, and follow you around to serve you."
After hearing this, Chen Qing's heart was touched, and when he was about to speak, the door was opened again.The person who opened the door was the concierge, but it was Rong Liang who walked out.
"Brother Rong Liang."
Rong Liang was really surprised when he saw Chen Qing: "It's really you? Come in."
Rong Liang brought Chen Qing to the hall, and a servant brought the tea.
"Are you...?"
Rong Liang glanced at Chen Qing, then at the eunuch behind him.Seeing his doubts, Chen Qing said, "I just left the palace today."
Rong Liang is a smart man. Hearing what Chen Qing said, there was a smile on his face: "It's good to come out. I was always worried about bringing you into the palace. You will have a bad life in the palace. Now when you come out, you should go back to the general." House?"
Chen Qing shook her head: "I came today for this purpose, I want to leave Danyang."
"Where?"
"Go back to my father's former residence, Jiangnan." Chen Qing said, and then thought that he came here to borrow money, with a trace of embarrassment on his face: "It's just that I just left the palace and I don't have anything, so I just wanted to ask about Rong Good brother borrow some money, and I will pay you back when I get richer in the future."
Rong Liang is very generous: "That's easy to say, how much do you need?"
Chen Qing hasn't figured out the prices here so far, and only spent silver taels when repairing houses in the south of the Yangtze River.Although Chen Qing came to borrow money, he didn't know how much it was appropriate to borrow.
"We are friends, Changqian, you don't have to be polite."
"How about 500 taels?"
As Chen Qing said, he didn't know if this was too much, whether Rong Liang would borrow it or not.
Rong Liang asked the accountant to fetch the bank note, and when it was handed over to Chen Qing, there was a 500 tael bank note, two coins and some silver taels: "The prices in the south of the Yangtze River are not cheaper than those in Danyang. You are alone now Go there, it’s better to keep more money with you.”
"Besides, it's more convenient to have these pieces of silver along the way."
Chen Qing was moved by Rong Liang's thoughtfulness.After collecting the bank notes and broken silver, I thanked Rong Liang repeatedly: "Thank you, I will pay you back when I earn enough in the future."
"it is good."
Rong Liang originally wanted to stay with Chen Qing for lunch, but Chen Qing declined and left Rong Liang's residence with his younger son.
For some reason, Chen Qing felt a little worried in his heart. If he didn't leave Danyang soon, it seemed that he would not be able to leave.This thought frightened him, now that he had money in his hand, Chen Qing wanted to leave immediately.
I bought clothes for Xiaozi, and replaced the conspicuous official clothes.Immediately after looking at a carriage, the two of them got into the carriage heading to Jiangnan.
Watching the carriage move forward slowly, after leaving Danyang, Chen Qing finally let go of the heart he had been carrying.
It's just that I didn't think about it, but something happened in the middle of the journey.Looking at the six or seven big men outside, Chen Qing secretly cursed "unlucky".
"Quick, get off everyone in the car!"
One of the big men let out a roar, and the big knife in his hand shone sharply, and the grooms outside shrank away in fright.
Chen Qing hesitated, lifted the curtain and went out.Chen Qing was still wearing the clothes she wore when she left the palace. Now that this year has just passed and the weather is still warm, Chen Qing is wearing a white-faced brocade robe and a fox fur. She looks like a wealthy family.
When those big men saw it, they immediately felt that this vote might kill a fat man.
"Hand over all the money on your body, but you will not die!" The big man shouted harshly, with scars on the corners of his eyes and beards on his lips, he looked like a fierce man.
Chen Qing was also a little scared, but at this moment it was important to save his life, so he took out the 500 taels of silver notes he borrowed from Rong Liang: "That's all we have, I'll give it all to you, let us go."
The big man with the scar took the bank note and snorted, "Hmph, that's all? It's not enough for grandpa to get stuck between his teeth. It seems that you want money to die!"
The big man with the scar said, lighting up the blade.
There were still some scraps of silver in Chen Qing's arms, but looking at the greedy looks of these big men, Chen Qing knew that even if he took them out, it would not be enough.These people's faces were so ferocious, and they didn't know if they had killed anyone, Chen Qing couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat.
"I want to join a relative of mine this time. I really have so much money on me. Otherwise, I will send the money when I get to my relative's place?"
The scarred man: "How can we trust you, when you run away, your shadow will be gone."
"I can give you the address..."
"Don't talk nonsense, whether you pay or not, grandpa, we don't have that much patience." The scarred man interrupted Chen Qing.
Another big man echoed: "Yes, boss, I see that the clothes on his body are also very valuable, why not pick them up and exchange them for some money."
"Yes, by the way, let's see if he has hidden money."
Several voices echoed, the big man hesitated for a moment, then nodded.Immediately, he commanded a few big men to come over: "You, you and you, two of you to pick up the clothes, and the other two to search for me in the carriage."
When Chen Qing saw it, there were countless crap in his heart, how poor these bandits are, they have to strip their clothes and exchange them for money.It's just that Chen Qing didn't know that the clothes on his body were carefully sewn by the Secretary. The fabric was made of high-quality brocade, the lining was silk, and the surface was embroidered with gold and silver threads.Not to mention the fox fur, just the clothes inside cost more than 500 taels.
Seeing that the situation was not right, they pulled Xiaozi and wanted to run. Those big guys looked bulky, but they were nimble and tight. They pushed Chen Qing to the ground and began to take off his clothes.
Those two big guys were going to arrest Chen Qing, but Xiao Zi and the others didn't care.Xiaozi, who had run far away, ran back when he saw his lord was arrested, "Let go of my lord..."
At this moment, a black figure rushed out from the side and kicked away the two big men holding Chen Qing.
The two big men clutched their chests and fell to the ground, coughing continuously.Seeing his own people being beaten, the big man with the scar was furious. Looking at the extra man in black in front of him, he shouted loudly, raised his big knife and rushed forward.
The big man with the scar is still a bit capable. The two of them tried several tricks, but in the end they still lost to the man in black. He kicked the big man with the scar on the wrist, kicked his big knife out, and then punched the man with a hammer. to his chest.The big man with the scar made a muffled grunt, and also fell to the ground.
Seeing that the boss couldn't beat him, the others had no choice but to say a harsh word, and hurriedly carried the unconscious man with the scar to leave.
Xiaozi came over and helped Chen Qing up, Chen Qing looked at the man in black with his back facing him: "Thank you, hero, for saving your life."
The man in black turned around, with no expression on his face, his eyes looked at Chen Qing calmly: "Don't."
Chen Qing was stunned for a moment, but she didn't understand the meaning of his words.But guessing, it probably means no thanks.
"Chen Qing, I don't know the hero's name?"
The man in black didn't answer, Chen Qing was slightly embarrassed, and wanted to change the topic: "Where is the hero going when he passes by here?"
Chen Qing originally thought that the man in black in front of him would not answer, but unexpectedly he said slowly, "Jiangnan."
Chen Qing was surprised that he was in the same place as himself.Although I have walked half the way, but this time I always feel that I am very unlucky.I don't know if I will meet some bandits and robbers next time, and I don't know martial arts.
But the person in front of him is very skilled, if he goes with him, he can rest assured.
Chen Qing pretended to be very surprised: "Such a fate, I will go to Jiangnan next time."
The man in black glanced at Chen Qing indifferently, without saying a word.
"It's better for us to go forward together. There is a carriage here, and it will be faster than walking."
After Chen Qing finished speaking, she looked at the man nervously, only to see the man glanced at the carriage beside him and nodded slightly.
Taking Chen Qing back to the carriage, only to find that the groom ran away at some point.Xiaozi can't ride a horse, and Chen Qing can't even more.The two stared at each other for a while, and finally their eyes fell on the man in black.
"boarding."
The man in black sat on the carriage and took the reins.
Chen Qing said, "I'm so sorry."
Getting into the carriage was very easy.
Chen Qing sat in the carriage without shaking, but he didn't know that the direction of the carriage was opposite to the direction to Jiangnan.
Chen Qing looked at the sky, and lifted the curtain: "It's getting dark, why don't we find an inn to rest for the night, and go on our way tomorrow."
The man in black glanced at Chen Qing and nodded slightly.But in the end, instead of staying at the inn, he stopped in front of a family's door.
Chen Qing got out of the carriage, and the moonlight was dim: "Where is this?"
"rest."
The man in black left a word and went to knock on the door.Soon the door was opened from the inside, and an elderly mother-in-law came out with a cane, dragging her voice when she spoke: "What are you here for?"
"stay."
The black shadow man spoke as concisely as ever.The granny narrowed her presbyopic eyes and looked at the three of them, then said, "Come with the old man."
Chen Qing followed behind, entered the gate, and saw that the courtyard was very tidy.Open your mouth and ask: "Mother-in-law, do you live here alone?"
"Yes, there is only one old man."
Chen Qing waited, and stopped asking questions.But Xiaozi who was walking beside tugged on Chen Qing's sleeve: "My lord, why does this slave feel weird?"
Chen Qing also felt that at this moment, he regretted a little, that he shouldn't have walked with the man in black just because he saved his life, if he was a bad guy, there would be nothing wrong with him, his martial arts are so high.
The mother-in-law brought the three of them into the house and said, "There is only one guest room here for the old man. If you stay overnight, you will have to squeeze together."
The black shadow man didn't answer, but instead looked at Chen Qing. Chen Qing was stared at by them, and laughed awkwardly: "It's okay, I'm fine."
There is only one bed in the guest room, Xiaozi naturally can't sleep, and lays a bed beside him.Chen Qing planned to be modest, but he didn't think about the man in black, but he ignored him, and lay down on the floor with the quilt in his arms.
When they were about to turn off the lights, there was a knock on the door. Xiaozi walked over and opened the door, and saw the mother-in-law coming in with a chopping board in her hand, on which were placed three porcelain bowls.
"It's cold outside, the old man made some ginger soup for you, drink it and sleep warmer."
"Thank you, mother-in-law."
Chen Qing thanked politely, but cautiously did not drink.The man in black sat on the mat, picked up a bowl, drank it in one gulp, and then put the empty bowl back to its original place: "Thank you."
Chen Qing saw that he really drank it, and there was nothing wrong with it, so he also picked up the bowl of ginger soup and drank it.
After drinking the warm ginger soup into my stomach, I really feel that my whole body has warmed up a lot.After turning off the lights, Chen Qing felt sleepy.
Lying on the bed, in a daze, Chen Qing felt that the tight door seemed to be opened again.Chen Qing wanted to see who came in, but he couldn't open his eyes no matter what, and his body was so weak that he couldn't move.
"Who are you?"
Chen Qing replied: "Hi, I'm here to find Rong Liang, you just tell him that your name is Chen Qing."
The concierge looked Chen Qing up and down, and then saw Xiaozi dressed in eunuch uniform: "Then you wait here for a while."
After the door was closed, Chen Qing glanced at Xiaozi who was following him: "You must come out with me, it will be difficult if you want to go back in the future."
The younger son didn't hesitate much: "The slave was promoted after serving the master. The younger son is grateful in his heart. Wherever the master goes, the younger son will go there, and follow you around to serve you."
After hearing this, Chen Qing's heart was touched, and when he was about to speak, the door was opened again.The person who opened the door was the concierge, but it was Rong Liang who walked out.
"Brother Rong Liang."
Rong Liang was really surprised when he saw Chen Qing: "It's really you? Come in."
Rong Liang brought Chen Qing to the hall, and a servant brought the tea.
"Are you...?"
Rong Liang glanced at Chen Qing, then at the eunuch behind him.Seeing his doubts, Chen Qing said, "I just left the palace today."
