Chapter 966 966: Fugitive Tattoo [Please vote]


Kunzhou, tea shop.

Cha Si Tavern has always been a gathering place for news.

Shen Tang’s personal expedition was not concealed.

Before she led her troops to the frontline battlefield, there were already discussions in the market. The frontline area received news that the local government asked some people to stay behind to maintain the local basic farming progress, and some old and weak people were transferred to the frontline in advance. Elsewhere, reducing war losses after the outbreak of the war: "It's strange to say."

Three or three tea guests gathered in the tea shop to chat.

One person suddenly made a confused sound, which attracted the side glances of his companions.

Ask: "Have you heard anything weird again?"

The person who started the topic in the first place shook his head.

My companion asked angrily: "Then why are you suddenly saying something strange?"

"Why is it not surprising? Think about it, in the past we talked about how the royal court was doing, and how the Lord was doing, There are always people who say the opposite to us. When we say the harvest is good this year, some people say the local taxes are high. ; When we say which official has been punished, some people say that the officials of the Royal Court protect each other, and they were punished because the person above them fell; when we say that the Royal Court is better than before, they say it is just pretending, what do we white people know about the current situation... Hiss , strange, why haven’t I heard these words today?”

The companion was reminded and looked around.

Confused and confused: "It's true. Not only are there no such sounds, there are also many fewer people in the tea shop. Could it be that they all went to apply for the army after hearing that there was a war? This is unlikely."

In the past, those people were most interested in sitting in teahouses and other places to chat with others, or they would angrily insult the royal court for their banditry and seize other people's ancestral property.

【Today the royal court can seize our family's land in order to win people's hearts, but who knows that someone named Shen won't seize your family wealth in the future? It is true that etiquette has collapsed, and there is no one in the world. It is hateful to teach such greedy and immoderate gangsters to occupy the throne and fool all living beings! 】

Most common people admire knowledgeable people in their bones, not to mention those scholars who were born in farming and education. They often worried about the country and the people, and had a good reputation in their hometown. Their ideas are simple and pure. How can local scholars harm their fellow villagers? In the eyes of ordinary people, those people talk more, read more, travel more places, and meet more people than themselves, so what they say must make sense.

I heard it and thought it was pertinent and reasonable!

Every time there is a sigh of relief.

As a result, the common people had a very good impression of the rebels.

In addition, these years of trading with Beimo, many fellow villagers who dared to work hard went to Tuocheng to do business, and one by one they became rich and became wealthy upstarts from all over the country. These people returned to their hometown and secretly brought back a lot of information about the Northern Desert area.

The Northern Desert is not as ferocious and cruel as the rumors say.

They are also ordinary people with two eyes, one nose and one mouth. They look similar to them. They are not monsters. The former northwest kingdoms and the current court of King Kang have slandered Beimo several times. What sinister motives do they have?

So, even if someone knows who has joined the rebels, they will not report it, and some will even take the initiative to help the rebels escape - since the rebels are knowledgeable people, what kind of good thing can the royal court be in encircling and suppressing the rebels? The royal court acted perversely and labeling them as rebels is really hateful!

In the past, whenever there was any disturbance, the tea shop would be filled with smoke.

The scholars held their own opinions and often drew their swords at each other.

In serious cases, it can escalate from a verbal dispute to a fight in a crowd. If you can't hold back, you can kill people if you hit hard. In the past, when was it not so noisy that the sky was filled with noise and the voices were hoarse?

Today, there is inexplicable harmony.

The harmony and quietness are so eerie.

No, it didn’t start today. I had this tendency a while ago, but there were no controversial topics at that time, and people who often hung out in tea shops couldn’t quarrel. The news I received today was exciting and controversial, but the result was an amazing harmony in the teahouse!

It was not only the companions who were awakened, but also others.

Everyone looked at each other.

You look at me, and I look at you.

The big eyes stared at the small eyes for a while, and finally the atmosphere in the tea shop was too peaceful, which made the scribe who went out to sharpen the edge of his sword with a whetstone feel even more boring. After sitting for a while, we paid for the tea and then dispersed: "Let's go, let's go, it's boring."

There is no conflict, and there is no quarrel.

Some people also asked about the whereabouts of those familiar old enemies. Why haven’t they been seen recently? They miss them.

Hehe——

You won’t end up in jail again behind their backs, right?

The tea shop that was supposed to be lively was much deserted.

As everyone knows, this is because Bei Mo spent a lot of money to plant internal agents in Kunzhou and almost all of them were eliminated, and the rebel forces were also wiped out. Some of the people who were used went to eat delicious food in prison, but there were also some People are reincarnated in one step and drink Meng Po soup.

The tea shop proprietress put away the tea cups one by one.

At this time, a tall and burly figure walked in outside the door. Judging from his figure, he should be Lian Jiazi. The few remaining tea patrons heard the commotion and turned their eyes, guessing that this person was a warrior who heard about the war and wanted to join the army to seek a future. Since a while ago, more and more foreign warriors have appeared in Kunzhou. Most of them are men, but there are also a few female warriors.

Most of the brave warriors in Kang State were concentrated in Zhechong Mansion.

There are not many folk activities, let alone none.

The proprietress put away the tea cup, and as soon as she straightened up, she saw the person coming, her pupils moved slightly, and she watched the latter sit down in the corner.

"Sir, what kind of tea do you want?"

The visitor took off his bamboo hat and said: "Here is the signboard."

The proprietress promised: "Let's get ready now."

Turn around and go back to the booth where the tea was prepared. After making the tea, as soon as she turned around, she saw the person standing silently in the corner. She was startled and thought He was scolding but was afraid of attracting others: "Gong Yunchi, you don't even look at the current situation, how dare you come here?"

Gong Cheng said: "Boring."

He just came out to relax.

The boss lady was speechless and couldn't say the rest of her words.

He cursed in a low voice: "Are you bored, why do you come here to have fun? You are a brave warrior, you are powerful, you can ignore the border defenses and travel between two places without alerting the defenders, how capable you are! Why didn't I kill you? ? Will you implicate me in your burial?"

Gong Cheng seems to be used to her sharp tongue.

Said: "No."

The proprietress suddenly pushed the tea cup into his arms.

From here, she could see the movement in the main hall of the teahouse through the gap in the curtain. There was Gong Cheng in front of her, and there was also one in the corner. She knew that this was a method used by brave warriors, who could make a person appear in two places at the same time, making it difficult to solve the case even if he killed someone.

Because business was not good, the boss lady closed the shop early.

Gong Cheng was sitting in the backyard drinking tea.

The landlady looked at him and felt really depressed.

When he passed by, he kicked his feet and said with his hands on his hips: "You look like a bitter gourd, which makes people unappetizing. You are from the Northern Desert now, so you fight. If you win, Just live, or die if you can't win, it's such a simple matter, why are you bored?"

Gong Cheng raised his eyes and looked at the landlady.

The boss's wife's eyebrows are somewhat similar to the same person.

He had met that man a few years ago.

He looked down at his calf and secretly thought that the landlady had put in a lot of effort. If it were an ordinary person, wouldn't he get bruises from being kicked by her?

The proprietress said: "These two kicks can't cripple you."

She is not an ordinary person who has this ability.

Gong Cheng said: "It's nothing."

The landlady saw that he had returned to his melancholic appearance, and became very angry: "It's a good thing I didn't marry you back then... Your half-dead look is very impressive. Full of anger! "Walking about is more irritating than going all the way.

How could she not know that the husband of the Gong family was so indecisive?

Gong Cheng: "If it were you back then, I'm afraid you would have died on the way. Not getting married is the right thing to do. At least you can save your life."

"What's right? I'd rather go with you."

The proprietress changed her attitude from being frank and aggressive and fell into silence.

She did save her life, but she also paid a heavy price for her youthful willfulness and lost almost everything she could lose.

For a long time, he took the initiative to provoke a topic that he had always avoided: "I am curious, who is that person? How did she survive the exile that even you could barely survive?"
< br>The leader of the Kang Kingdom, Shen Tang, also known as Youli, has an unknown origin. The outside world only knows that she was a survivor of the Xin Kingdom and was an official. She was implicated by the tyrant Zheng Qiao and her whole family was sent into exile as a young girl. There is controversy among the people about "official origin", but there is no such thing as exile.

Because Shen Tang has a tattoo behind his ear.

For prisoners who were sent into exile, the man had tattoos on his face and the woman had tattoos on the back of her ears. She did not cover the tattoos behind her ears with earrings. It is said that she often leaves the palace and goes out among the people, so many common people can see the prison mark behind her ear up close.

This is also the point where Kunzhou rebels often attack her.

She is just an exiled female prisoner with a shady background and reputation. What qualifications do she have to occupy a high position? What qualifications do you have to be the democratic monarch of a country and to command the civil and military forces?

Why not be ashamed and commit suicide to give way?

I heard that there is still quite a stir in public opinion. An official suggested that the doctor Xinglin erase the tattoo mark.

She should not have such a mark of shame for the common people to talk about.

However, Shen Tang waved his hands indifferently: [The sage said, 'When heaven is about to entrust a great responsibility to this person, he must first strain his mind, strain his muscles and bones, starve his body and skin, and deplete his body'. Past experiences, good or bad, happened before and cannot be changed. Just like this tattoo, why erase it? Erased, it never existed? It should not be a shame, it should be glory, merit, and capital. If you really want to define it as a shame, it would also be a shame for those defeated generals. They didn't say anything, so what did I do? 】

The scholars heard this and praised him for his open-mindedness!

Actually, there is a weird and outrageous rumor among the people.

It is said that someone unexpectedly saw a man who looked like the king of the country laughing loudly in a wine shop: [...what a shame, what a shame! Carrying this mark until now, I am like a mother cow opening the door for a calf, the cow is home! Lao Zhu started with a bowl, and I started with an exile. Hahahaha, if the enemy loses to me, what's the difference between this and being squatted on top of your head to urinate on? 】

The female companion next to her sighed.

【This cannot be spread. 】

【Why can't it be spread? Is Tunan worried that the graves of Huang Xiguang, Zhang Yongqing, Tao Shenyu and others will explode? Don't worry, except for Tao Shenyu, the other two have no graves, but Zheng Qiao can do it. 】Well, there is also a grave of Qiu Fumiyan.

Others can make fun of her, but Qiu Wenyan is the righteous Lord of Bai Yueguang, and she doesn’t want to get into trouble with him because of this person.

Enough of hiding it from others.

This man drank a lot and his speech was slurred.

[Because your defeated generals also include Uncle Qian and General. 】Let Qian Yong know that being defeated by Shen Tang is equivalent to being pissed on. This old boy can make endless troubles.

If the civil servants quarrel and quarrel with each other, the North Korean meeting can continue; if the military attachés end up fighting, the foreign court will be flattered by them.

Of course, that hasn’t happened yet.

The Lord's force can slap each of them before they take action.

But it is an indisputable fact that military attachés are incredibly destructive.

[Ahem, Uncle Qian and... Ahem, Old Qian's mouth is more broken than the meat stuffing used to make dumplings... You think I didn't say anything. Today is a rare day off. If you invite Tunan out for a drink, why don’t we talk about these trivial matters? How's that? 】

【You, you should be more restrained at ordinary times. 】

Since the news that she was proud of the tattoo behind her ear spread, some people were puzzled, and some passionate young people followed suit.

On her way to the wine shop, she met seven or eight young men from Kang Guo who were showing off on the street, with tattoos on their wrists, necks, fingers and other parts, and their heads braided in the same style as Gong Xiqiu's.

Ning Yan also saw the daughter of a certain censor among them.

I don’t know if her censor father saw it and his eyes darkened: [Words such as peeing and peeing, let alone the censor will come to persuade you to be polite, Qi Zhongshu will also get angina if he knows it. 】

Qishan has not given up on his plan to cultivate a gentleman so far. This indomitable perseverance is indeed unparalleled.

[Ahem, I call it leading the trend. 】

——————————

Regardless of whether these unreliable rumors are true or false, the boss lady only treats them as anecdotes. She has never really come into contact with anyone who has met Shen Youli, except Gong Cheng in front of her. His reply may be more objective and fair.

Gong Cheng thought for a while and shook his head: "I don't know. It's hard to judge right from wrong. In short, he should be a person with great perseverance."

Without this perseverance, he would not be alive today. .

The proprietress casually patted the moss on the stone steps and sat down with her skirt on her back: "You have seen her, how could you not understand her?"

Gong Cheng: "We meet by chance and have a casual conversation."

Understanding a person can only be achieved by two sides.

He is not good at discerning people's hearts.

These eyes are often shrouded in fog.

Even if he is a friend who has been in contact for a long time, he cannot fully see clearly. What's more, that person didn't dare to make a conclusion.

The landlady said regretfully: "I really want to meet him. Anyway, he gave me two lives and is also my benefactor."

Even if the other party doesn't know about it.

“Two lives?”

The landlady’s smile was a bit bitter: “Back then, being exiled as a substitute for a wife was one life. After that, it was another life to escape the war and move around, and to take root on one life. If Kunzhou had not been pacified, would I still be able to open this tea shop safely? "

She was originally the daughter of an official, from a famous family.

He was protected by his family at an early age and developed an innocent and inexperienced character. She always felt that no matter what she did or what big mistake she made, she would be forgiven.

It is very common for women from aristocratic families to have a blue complexion before marriage.

The landlady was young at the time and didn’t know anything about love. She only knew that she could have what other women from aristocratic families had, so she followed suit, just to not lose out to others.

Soon, she met a young man from a similar family background. The other party's family background, talent and talents were indeed as good as anyone else's, and she finally breathed a sigh of relief as she refused to admit defeat.

In just a few months, we are divided and reunited.

The two of them never cared about the precarious Xin Guo being slashed in the neck by Zheng Qiao, and they didn't know the position of their elders.
