3days ago traverse Novels 3
Anyifang is close to the East City and is located in the prosperous area of ​​Chang'an. Although it is getting late, it still has not stopped.

When Xue Chongxun and his party passed through South Street, he really felt like he was in a modern city.

But as soon as the team entered North Street, the hustle and bustle seemed to disappear in an instant. There were many relatives living here. The lanterns shone brightly and brilliantly on the rich families. The rich slaves at the door were dressed brightly and had a sensible attitude when speaking and walking. Ordinary people generally would not come here.

Xue Chongxun’s Mist Zhai is diagonally opposite the Duke of Wei’s Mansion. It is a small courtyard. It used to be lived by some big-name customers. Xue Chongxun asked the butler to buy it and decorate it into a villa for his own entertainment.

Take off the veil and I'll take a look.

After entering the Mongyunzhai, Xue Chongxun remembered the woman he had just saved. He could interrogate her origin while he had time to spend time on the road, otherwise there would be something tomorrow...

However, I heard this woman's voice before, and it was thick and hoarse. If it looked too annoying, wouldn't it be depressed to go in together?

The woman was stunned for a moment, and then obediently took off the black veil from her face, but covered her eyebrows with one palm.

The lanterns under the eaves were hung high so that her eyes were hidden in the shadow of her palms, and she could not see clearly, only a thin lips and a pointed chin.

The most noticeable thing is that her skin is white, really white, but the bloodless white paper-like white may not be very smooth.

Too bright, a little uncomfortable.The woman's voice was as low as ever.

Xue Chongxun didn't say much and nodded: Go in with me... ask me to prepare the things in the wooden house.

Fang Yuzhong gently reminded: Brothers, it’s not convenient for you to go in.What he meant was to let this unknown woman get along with Xue Chongxun alone, which poses a safety hazard.

Xue Chongxun smiled distractedly, and did not say much. He waved to them, then walked straight to a wooden house in front of the courtyard, and said without looking back: Come with me.

The woman looked around and the guards stood still, so she took two steps to follow Xue Chongxun.

The two entered the wooden house and closed the door. They saw that the wooden house was very small, without even windows, and the furnishings were very simple, with only two hu beds with leather and a large wooden table. There was a large black stone on the floor next to the hu bed, and next to the big stone was a bucket full of clear water.

There is nothing else.

After a while, a slave with a two-ring head combed a pot of tea and placed it on the big table, then bowed his knees and lowered his eyebrows and said: "My husband, wait, the servants are on fire below."

Xue Chongxun picked up the teapot and poured two cups of tea, picked up one cup and drank it all, not tea tasting.Drink more water first, otherwise drinking water will be bad for your health later.

The woman in black said: Thank you, I am not thirsty.

The room slowly became a little warmer. The woman in black looked at the black stone next to her twice and obviously felt that the heat was radiating from the stone.

I saved you today, but we have never met before. Now you tell me what is the origin, who is chasing you, and why.You know, don't lie, because I'll be able to check it out soon.

The woman in black was silent for a while. Her eyelashes were long and her eyes were dark and deep, which reminded people of endless darkness.

I don’t have a surname, and others gave me a name called “Nu Wuchang”. Brothers from the same clan usually call me Sanniang because I am the third orphan to join the Yuwen family.

Yuwen’s family?Xue Chongxun immediately became interested, and his hand holding the puppet paused for a moment, then poured half of the puppet of water on the black and red stone, and immediately sneered, and a large stream of white smoke rose.

It is Yuwen Xiao, who is now the Minister of Revenue. He was the one who spoke to his benefactor in the Gusi Lane just now.The husband is an official, maybe he knows him too?

Xue Chongxun nodded and said: Yes, I have met one or two times.

Yuwen Xiao is not very familiar with him, but his daughter Yuwen Ji is an acquaintance.

He couldn't help but ask the question he wanted to know: It seems that the Yuwen family has an unknown side. Let's talk about what kind of person Yuwen Xiao is.

Sanniang said: Yuwenxiao's lineage was originally a merchant who transported tea. He was the second son of the Yuwen family. He was in a downturn because he failed to inherit the family property.Later, he searched for orphans and kidnapped them until they were teenagers to do shameful things for him.

When Sanniang said this, a trace of bitterness flashed in her eyes: In the past, we never kept these things secret and never spoke until death. My second brother was caught. In order to keep silent, I don’t know how painful it was to die... But now Yuwen Xiao wants to silence him, he is ruthless, what else can I say?

Xue Chongxun listened to her silently, and did not interrupt easily. He just focused on watering the stones, and watered them when they were red.The wooden house was filled with white smoke, like a dream, and the temperature was rising.

He pretended to be an inconspicuous little tea merchant, but in fact he secretly and brutally blackmailed merchants along the canal. If anyone dared to resist, we would assassinate whoever!Yuwen Xiao used this as a means to make huge profits, which finally aroused the anger of the eight major merchant gangs in Bianqu. Since jointly investigating the matter, the court transferred the position of Liu An, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, to clear the river trough, and Liu, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, also took charge of the matter.

Xue Chongxun nodded.

The diarrhea was severe in the pass two years ago and last year, and Chang'an rice was expensive, and the central government's supply of various materials was becoming increasingly tight. However, Empress Wei was unwilling to leave Chang'an last year. This year, Emperor Li Dan and Prince Li Longji had to confront Princess Taiping in Chang'an, and it was impossible to go to Luoyang. Therefore, Chang'an's supply of materials was more dependent on the supply of materials from the south, so the court attached great importance to the river transportation.

The situation is already very dangerous for us, and my second brother is trapped and caught, and Yu Wenxiao is also ready to stop.He spent a lot of money to get to know Feng Yuanjun, the young minister of Taichang Temple. When Feng Yuanjun happened to fall in love with his daughter Yu Wenji again. Feng Yuanjun actually obtained an official position for Yu Wenxiao through the eunuch Gao Lishi.Now that he was cleansed, he never wanted to look back, but we who worked hard for him know too much, so he designed to poison them one by one. Before my fourth brother died, I escaped. It was not because of the benefactor's rescue, but he had died without a place to bury him...

The temperature inside was already very high, and both of them were sweating profusely. In the white mist, Xue Chongxun took off all his clothes, wrapped a towel around his waist, and then sat comfortably on Hu's bed, closing his eyes and thinking about something.

There was a tingling sound of the teacup. Sanniang touched the teacup and whispered: I'm a little thirsty, I'll drink a sip of water.

Xue Chongxun opened her eyes and saw that her whole body was soaked in sweat, and her hair was wet on her forehead and face, looking a little embarrassed, and her wet clothes were tightly attached to her body, but it was difficult to take off, so that the outline of her body completely appeared in front of Xue Chongxun.

Unlike many Chang'an ladies, she is fat and plump. Sanniang has a very slim figure that looks a little thin. However, based on the aesthetic view in Xue Chongxun's memories of her previous life, she still has the graceful curves unique to women. Her waist is flexible and slender, and her breasts are not big, but because the wet clothes are close to the shape of an inverted bowl, and the two raised shapes in the middle of the two inverted bowls have a unique charm.

I asked you to drink some water in advance, but now I am not good for my health.Xue Chongxun said lightly.

It doesn’t matter, we lie down at night, like ghosts, so we naturally don’t care about health preservation.

Xue Chongxun said again: What are your plans now?

Sanniang said without hesitation: But by sending her a favor, you will know your grievances.

Xue Chongxun showed a smile on his lips and said with a pretext of wanting to get: Whether it is Yu Wenxiao or Feng Yuanjun, in my eyes, I am not afraid of him for saving you. A small matter is just a matter of my mood for a while. You don’t have to worry about it. If you have other plans, I won’t force you.

Sanniang's eyes actually showed a kind of sadness: I have been working for the Yuwen family since I was a child, and I only know how to kill people. I have no friends or livelihood outside. I don't know where to stay. If the husband doesn't dislike me, leave me in the mansion and be a slave... The brothers and sisters I cook all like to eat, but I don't know if it suits my husband's taste, maybe I can be a chef?

Using her as a cook is a waste of resources, Xue Chongxun thought so.

According to the experience of the society in the previous life, society is progressing and productivity is increasing. In fact, it is just a matter of how to use resources in the environment. Whether it is burning firewood in the Tang Dynasty or burning minerals in the future, it is just a matter of how to use resources.

Xue Chongxun said: Does Yuwen Ji know about his father?

Sanniang said with a little self-deprecating self-deprecating: Yuwenxiao always says that we are treated as biological children, but in fact, there is a big difference. His family will not participate in his affairs... However, Yuwenji knows our existence, and she should also know something about her father doing shameful things.

Xue Chongxun said: Do you hate it?Want to avenge your brother and sister?

At this time, Sanniang showed a sense of vicissitudes that were inconsistent with her age, shook her head and said dejectedly: This is all fate. If you walk this path of no return, hatred is useless, and you have no way to start with hatred.I have a luxury, thinking about living the life of ordinary people... It is really a luxury for me.

Xue Chongxun felt a little sorry at this moment, feeling that he was too cold.Why do you have such a woman’s idea of ​​being kind?Perhaps it was the memories of his previous life that made him realize the warm side of human beings?

He reminded himself: There is no warmth in this world, only intrigue, and he will do anything to benefit, power, security, and wealth!

As long as you are soft-hearted and not strong enough, you will let the mermaid meat behave like your father, and be beaten to death by your mother-in-law and starve to death by your body!

Xue Chongxun breathed a sigh of relief and said in a completely different tone: I saved your life. As long as you treat yourself as my person, I will cherish you as much as my own things... But I can also destroy you at any time.
