Chapter 963: Chapter 270 (1/2)

In the early morning, a Qingpeng carriage quietly departed from the Zhennan Palace.

The coachman was still Zhou Dacheng. In addition to Baihui Lily, he accompanied only two royal palace guards.

They are going to Huaiyuan County, which is only seven or eight miles away from Wangdu. This is a small county. Nangongyu never visited or paid attention to it, but this time it was thought that it was also because of the old town Nanwang There is a small shop there, which is now under the name of Xiao Yi. The shop left by King Nan of the old town had only this boundary in the capital of the king, so Nangong selected this house after careful consideration.

After more than an hour, the group went to Huaiyuan County.

The shop is located at the most popular Kaiyuan street in Huaiyuan County. It is opened from three shops to a large one. For Wangfu, it is just a small shop, but it is very eye-catching on Kaiyuan Street.

Zhou Dacheng yelled and stopped the carriage on the diagonally opposite side of the shop. He narrowed his eyes for a while, and was angry with the blue tendons on his back. Although they had sent people here to investigate for a long time, they knew that this shop was not the one they had been in, but when he saw it with his own eyes, he couldn't hold back his anger.

”Zhou Dacheng, have you arrived?” When Lily saw the carriage stopped, she opened the curtain and reached out her head. After looking for half a circle, she stopped looking at the sign on the diagonally opposite shop.

She retracted her head back, and the irresistible anger between Meiyu yelled to Nangong angrily: ”Sir concubine, the princess really has a good skill, it is good to play with flowers and trees!”

Nangong Yan opened the curtain by the window, glanced at the diagonally opposite plaque with the words ”open source **** shop”, and then looked back, his lips curled into a straight line.

According to the account book left by Xiao Yi, this open source pawnshop should have been called open source grain shop.

At that time, the Dayu Dynasty was newly established, and after years of war and decay in the former dynasty, the people lived in poverty, so the king of the south of the old town opened this grain shop here. This grain shop has never been for profit, but to help them in a hurry. Not only is the food price extremely low, but it also applies grain and porridge from time to time. Therefore, it has never been profitable on the account, and it also puts in a lot of silver every year. ...

Before Nangong Yan came here, he naturally turned over all his accounts. Until the books handed in this year, the shop's name was still Kaiyuan Grain Shop, and it lost a whole thousand and two. If she hadn't sent someone to look around the shop in the old town near the capital of the capital and Zhuangzi, would you know that this grain shop had been transformed into a pawnshop as early as five years ago!

Compared to Lily's indignation, Nangong Yu looked pale and light, and poured a cup of tea for Lily. ”Drink tea and let it go.”

Then she poured herself a cup, sipped her tea, and said lightly: ”It's not just‘ moving flowers and receiving wood ’, but also playing‘ Fake Fake Tiger ’.”

It's not the fake foxes and tigers. This ”open source pawnshop” is based on the name of Xiao Yi, the king of Zhennan, and the government and nearby loquats never dare to come.

Lily couldn't wait to ask: ”Sir concubine, people are ready, should you immediately ...”

Before she finished speaking, she heard a loud noise from outside. Nangong Yan again opened the curtains and looked at the open source **** shop. I saw someone at the door seems to be pushing ...

”You old lady, don't be foolish here! Go out!” A rough male roared impatiently, and then saw a man in a Tsing Yi, looking like a man, pushing an old woman with gray hair out. The old woman was dressed in patched coarse clothes, slightly slender, and was pushed by the other person, her feet slumped, and she fell to the ground.

Such a big move not only attracted Nangong Yu, but even passers-by passing around looked at it, but they only gave pointers and no one dared to step forward to help. The guy glared at the passerby and said with a high-pitched voice: ”What to see!”

Lily frowned, looking inquiringly at Nangong Yu, seeing Nangong Yu nodding slightly, and quickly got out of the carriage.

The old woman fluttered to try to hug her buddies' legs, and weeping with tears in her eyes, begging, ”Master, allow three more days. As long as three days, the wife must raise money.”

”No! Tomorrow is the last day!” The man impatiently tried to kick her away, but she hugged her calf tightly. ”Due to pay the debt, it is justified! If every debt is dragged down, you should be Shall we open a church? ”

As the man said, passers-by on the crowd also nodded, yeah, owing debts and paying money is justified!

But some of them also know that this pawnshop is putting Yinzi money on weekdays, and the look to the old woman is a bit complicated. Why not borrow it? Why do n’t you just borrow Yinzi money?

Zhou Dacheng was so angry that his eyes were flushed with red bloodshots, and he gritted his teeth and said, ”Shi Zifei, they are really putting their money on ...”

There are sayings in the saying: Yinzi money, one for three; profit and profit, turn over every year; one year for borrowing, ten years for return;

This is a huge profit. Although the Dayu dynasty did not control the release of Yinzi money by the people, it was explicitly forbidden by the royal family and court officials and their families to put Yinzi money. Xiao Fangshi puts her money here with such fanfare. The money is in her pockets, but the bad reputation is Xiao Yi. Even if things get bigger in the future, it will not be related to her Zhennan princess. Her little Fang is still the dignified and elegant Princess of Zhennan, and she has a kind heart for the eldest son left by the former Princess.

”Master!” The old woman pleaded tearfully, ”the wife is really penniless, and her family is all around. The saleable farmland, possessions, and even real estate have been sold. Now my grandson is still seriously ill, My wife ca n’t even raise the doctor ’s money, so please beg for a few more days. ”

I didn't expect this old woman to be so miserable! Passers-by were sympathetic. Some people wanted to help the old woman talk, but he was immediately stopped by a friend next to him, and he whispered something in his ear, and the man returned. It turned out that this was the shop opened by Zhennan Wang Shizi, no wonder so arrogant! These flat-headed people can't even offend a hundred heads.

”Huh!” The man snorted in a nasty manner, his eyes rolled slowly, grinning, ”Wife, don't pretend to be poor, you still have 'things' to sell!” He said meaningfully It is obviously bad intention to increase the volume on ”things”.

The old woman froze, her eyes narrowed, her face pale, and shook her head desperately: ”No, how can my wife sell her granddaughter ...”

The buddy turned his face and kicked the old woman with a kick: ”Old woman, no matter what method you use, in any case, I must see the money tomorrow morning, otherwise don't blame Lao Tzu for coming to the door!” ”

After all, the old woman was physically weak and was kicked so hard by him, and her upper body fell to the ground all at once ... Seeing that she was about to lie on the ground, everyone around him exclaimed. Fortunately, a cyan figure was like this. The meteor rushed out and helped the old woman, Lily.

Nangong Yu and Bai Hui on the carriage also felt relieved when they saw this.

”Don't worry ...” The guy chuckled a bit, and didn't want to bother with the old woman anymore, and turned to walk towards the pawnshop.

Lily glanced coldly at the guy's back, squinting slightly, but didn't immediately go to the guy to calculate the account. In this incident, Shi Zifei had her own opinions, and she could not spoil Shi Zifei's deployment because of a moment of indignation.

Lily leaned over and held the old woman up. ”Ma'am, are you okay? Is there anything uncomfortable?”

The old woman looked up at Lily gratefully, and shook her head, ”Thank you girl, my wife is fine.” She said, looking at the pawnshop unwillingly. ”No, my wife has to ask the shopkeeper again ...” ”

I heard that some passers-by kindly advised: ”Ma'am, it's no use asking you! This pawnshop was opened by Zhennan Wang Shizi. Last time someone came here to pawn. As a result, a good jade bracelet was only given by the shopkeeper. Two or two money, the man wanted to share the theory with the shopkeeper, but was beaten to death. That ’s it, the government did n’t dare to control it. You still go home and raise money, otherwise ... ”The passerby shook his head helplessly. Otherwise, you really can only sell children and daughters to pay off the debt!

”Where can the wife go to raise money?” The old woman walked forward in despair, muttering, ”Did she really want to sell her sister ...”

Lily was a little worried. When she heard the old woman's words, she was even more at ease, chasing after him and calling out, ”Madam, you can stay ...”

”Lily, you take this auntie to the carriage, let's take her for a ride.” Bai Hui's voice suddenly sounded behind Lily. Lily immediately understood the meaning of her cousin, and he echoed, ”Yes, madam, you just fell Now, let's take you for a ride? ”

The old woman was still a little hesitant, but Zhou Dacheng had come to her in a carriage, Lily smiled at the old woman with a smile, and said deliberately, ”Madam, don't you think I'm a bad person?”

”Why !?” the old woman waved her hands in horror. ”Why is my wife so ignorant? You are a great girl! ... Then the old lady is bothering me.”

The old woman said an address, and got into the carriage with Lily's help.

The old woman looked at the carriage very ordinary, but did not expect that the carriage was unexpectedly clean, comfortable and spacious. It was obviously carefully arranged, and the two girls in the carriage made her even more amazing, especially The one sitting by the window on the right side, although young, is 13 or 4 years old, but is combing the woman's head, as beautiful as the person in the painting. The woman was a little hesitant.

Bai Hui busily helped the old woman: ”Ma'am, sit down with me.” He followed Lily into the carriage and sat down on Nangong's footstool.

Zhou Dacheng sighed outside and the carriage began to move forward slowly.

Lily smiled and introduced to the old woman: ”Madam, this is my wife.”

”Mrs. kindness, my wife thanked me here.” The old lady owed her thanks.

Nangong smiled slightly and said, ”I don't have to be polite, I just need to help. I don't know what to call her?”

The old woman answered quickly: ”The wife's husband's family name is Ye ...”

”Ma'am, I just saw what happened before, and asked valiantly, how can you borrow Yinzi money?” Nangong Yan and Yan Yue asked with a smile.

As soon as she mentioned this, Aunt Ye's eyes suddenly turned red, and she sighed, ”It's all my wife who's stupid, so they've been tricked ...

It seems there is something inside. Bai Hui and Lily looked at each other.

Mrs. Ye wiped her tears with her cuffs and went on to say, ”My son-in-law has long since disappeared, leaving only a pair of grandchildren. My grandchild was seriously ill more than four months ago. I saw several doctors and ate After a few precious medicinal herbs were not good, it did n’t take long for me to spend all the cash in the house. At the time of the autumn harvest, my wife thought about going to the pawnshop and pawning first. If you have money, you can redeem it. ”

Speaking of anger, Aunt Ye couldn't help but tightly tighten the fabric on the side of the skirt. ”Who knows the open source **** shop, the shopkeeper said that the wife's things are not worth a lot of money, and if the wife is in a hurry to use the money, I can lend it to my wife for only one point of interest. The wife thought that it was a matter of half a month's turnover, so I borrowed it and pressed the handprint ... But who knows that it was a profit, but the number has been turned over in half a month Several times ... ”

The side of Bai Hui and Lily couldn't help but be filled with indignation and anger in the eyes. This is really lawless!

Auntie Ye choked and continued: ”In order to repay the money, the wife sold everything that could be sold at home. Even the field was not preserved, but it was still not paid off. Now there is nothing left, only this pair is left. Grandson and granddaughter ... But it seems that even her granddaughter can't keep it ... ”She couldn't hold back her sorrow anymore, sobbing sobbing.

Nan Gongxi motioned to Bai Hui to give Aunt Ye a papa, and she said in a deep voice: ”Aunt Ye, since you are being coaxed by a pawnshop, why don't you sue the officials?” No bottom.

Auntie Ye looked blankly at Nangong and said, ”The pawnshop said that even the wife's complaint would be useless. This is a black and white letter with the wife's handprint on it. It can't be fake. Besides, the pawnshop is Zhennan Wang Shizi opened, and the officials protect each other. How could the county magistrate offend our grandfather for a flat people like us! ”

For a moment, the carriage was silent, and Lily was about to say something, but Bai Hui gestured with a glance, and then swallowed it back in depression.

Nangong Yan groaned for a while, and the index finger of her right hand rubbed the ring around her waist ... Although she had already arranged someone, now it seems that this auntie Ye seems more suitable. She thought, looking up at Ye Auntie, her eyes were firm and clear.

”Ma'am, I'm from the capital, and I know a little bit about Zhennan Wang Shizi ... As far as I know, Zhennan Wang Shizi is by no means the kind of bullying and bullying, I am afraid there are villains in it ”Nangong said slowly, the soft tone seemed to have a calming power, making people involuntarily believe her.

Ye Auntie didn't expect Nangong Yu to say such a thing, both shocked and somewhat skeptical. Although this little lady looked at the family of a large family, but looking at the carriage and her clothes and jewelry, at most it is the Shuxiang Mendi, how could she know the son of the king of Zhennan?

But when I think that people are just watching, who are willing to help and speak out for themselves, only the little lady's daughter-in-law, if they ca n’t believe it, who else can they trust?

Mrs. Ye took a deep breath and asked, ”Mrs., would you please teach the wife, what should the wife do?”

”Drumming and injustice.” Nangong gave the four words lightly.

”Complaint officer ...” Ye Auntie was a flat-headed people, born with fear of provoking officials, and hesitated for a while.

But think about it, she's already gone. If she doesn't sue the official now, tomorrow ... tomorrow, her family will be ruined!

Ye Ainiang's eyes swelled, as if seizing the last life-saving straw, and quickly said: ”Xian County, my wife must hurry to County County ...”

”Ma'am, you can't be anxious,” Nangong said softly. ”The most important thing now is to ask you to ask a doctor to let Lang see you.”

Ye Auntie couldn't believe her ears, and tears appeared in her eyes again, saying gratefully, ”Thank you Madam! Thank you Madam!” At this time, apart from thanking, she didn't know what else she could say ...

Maybe, maybe I really met a noble person? Aunt Ye was scared, but a hint of flame ignited in her heart.

This little lady will never lie to her!

She's going to sue!

...

An hour later, Bai Hui took Aunt Ye to the Nangongyu's green carriage, and came to the county. Nangong Yan watched the two in the carriage and watched the changes.

This Huaiyuan County is just a small county. Naturally, the style of the county can't be compared with the capital of the capital of the King Zhaozhao, but it also carries a majestic atmosphere, which makes people dare not approach.

According to Dayu ’s law calendar, go to Jingzhao ’s government office to claim the grievance, regardless of whether the grievance is true. In comparison, this ordinary county lord is more polite, and drumming is injustice. You can forgive the punishment of the staff, but if it is an obituary, then don't blame the county grandfather!

Ye Ainiang's chest was like a drumstick, and her legs trembled a little. She looked at Bai Hui anxiously, and Bai Hui nodded slightly at her, which finally gave her courage.
