The heroine is so cute, she quickly puts on her clothes and lies down
Chapter 71: The Great Imperial Master 8
As he walked around, Zhu Yue observed this ancient city.
It is different from the ancient times depicted in the costume dramas we see today.
In other words, the TV drama is beautified, and the overall social atmosphere in ancient times was very heavy.
When Zhu Yue passed by the yamen, she saw the middle-aged woman who was kneeling in despair at the door. Her eyes suddenly lit up. Perhaps she had been kneeling for too long and could not stand up for a while. She looked very anxious, so she simply gave up the idea of standing up, crawled on her knees, and used her hands and feet to quickly crawl towards her.
Zhu Yue stopped and waited quietly.
When the woman came to her, she kowtowed twice. Her face was pale and her eyes were dark. Her eyes, which were originally desperate and numb, now had some light.
"Sir, is this the sir from the Taoist temple? My Dalang has been missing for three days. Please, sir, I beg you, I am willing to pay any price as long as you can find my child."
Zhu Yue's expression under her bamboo hat was not very changed. She asked calmly, "What is his birth date?"
The woman spoke quickly, and Zhu Yue made a prediction in her mind, and soon understood the process and result of the incident. She looked at the woman with a little sympathy and said, "Your child is not lost. He is now in the human trafficking in the alley. Your husband sold him there." The woman's eyes were surging, and Zhu Yue saw anger in her eyes. "If nothing unexpected happens, you will be sold soon."
Of course, now the accident has occurred, and it is her.
Zhu Yue laughed at this unscrupulous husband in her heart. It's your bad luck that your retribution has come so soon.
After Zhu Yue finished speaking, one could see from the woman's face that her miserable life of losing her child and being sold to a brothel by her husband had changed.
The rest is up to the woman to decide, whether to comply or resist, it is already obvious.
The woman kowtowed to Zhu Yue three times on the ground. Zhu Yue didn't want to accept it, but she knew it was best not to refuse, because this woman had nothing else to give her except this thought. If she did so, she would feel at ease that she had repaid the woman's kindness.
This was told to her by the Imperial Master. Zhu Yue observed the woman's cheering-up look and felt that it made sense.
The woman returned home, tidied her hair, went to the woodshed to cook, opened a bottle of wine, watched the man finish eating, and went to bed.
Never opened his eyes again.
The woman took out her own money from her hiding place and found the money the man had received from selling his son.
In fact, she had long known that this man had been having an affair with the widow behind her back, and recently, under the seduction of the widow, he became addicted to gambling and lost all the acres of land in the family. He was already eyeing her dowry.
But she didn't expect this man to be so cruel. Knowing that he wanted to sell her, the woman was not surprised. She just didn't expect that he could even abandon his son.
Since he chose to abandon them and their child, there was no need for him to live and cause trouble for them.
The woman packed the money and walked out the door, telling her neighbors that she was going out to look for her son and would not come back until she found him, and then she left.

Here, Zhu Yue returned to the inn, asked the waiter to bring a pot of the best pear blossom wine, and then returned to her room.
After the wine and two side dishes were served, Zhu Yue began to drink with one hand and fiddle with three copper coins with the other.
"... He actually did it. How courageous... I like it... It would be nice if I could take my son to live somewhere else..."
After reading it, he casually pushed the coin aside, stood up, opened the window, and watched the people coming and going downstairs.
No one knows which will come first, tomorrow or an accident, so you must enjoy the present and drink while you can.
Zhu Yue smiled and admired the half-moon for a while. When she felt sleepy, she closed the window and went into her space to sleep.

The next morning, they drove on the road again. The cool breeze blowing on their faces made them feel relaxed. They enjoyed the surrounding scenery along the way and Zhu Yue couldn't help feeling relaxed and happy.
Life is a long journey, don't be in a hurry for success.
After leaving the city of Suwei, the road to the next city, Nightingale, was very smooth.
After the sun went down, it was not completely dark yet, so Zhu Yue kept on driving for a while until it was completely dark and pitch dark. Only then did he stop the carriage and rest near the post station.
In the carriage, he took out the braised chicken with rice from the space and ate it leisurely with beer.
She was no longer as anxious to travel as before. The next few cities were all on the same line, so she just had to take the official road and follow the post stations.
After it got completely dark, Zhu Yue took out a quilt from the space, spread half of it under her body and covered herself with the other half. The weather had obviously turned cooler recently, so she had already taken out a thick quilt. She estimated that it would snow in about a month.
Thinking of the scenery of snowflakes fluttering in the air, Zhu Yue couldn't help but feel a little excited.
In ancient times, a post station was a place where people or officials who delivered official or military documents could get food, lodging, and change horses during their journey.
In ancient times, official documents were delivered through post stations. When Zhu Yue was a child, his parents took him to see a well-preserved ancient post station.
It has a heavy atmosphere that comes from history.
However, the countries and dynasties here were all very unfamiliar to her. She could not find anything similar in her memory. The names of the emperors of all dynasties were also completely unfamiliar. The history here definitely had nothing to do with her.
The certificates used by the post station were the "kanhe" and "huopai". Anyone who needed a car, horse, or man to transport official documents and items from the post station had to look at the "youfu". When the government used it, it would be based on the "kanhe";
Zhu Yue didn't prepare these things. Even if the post stations along the way were not necessarily so strict, she would not go in. She went out to avoid the trouble in the capital. If she left traces at the post station, wouldn't that be asking for trouble...
Late at night, Zhu Yue was awakened by the sound of deliberately suppressed footsteps. In the darkness, she opened her eyes and heard footsteps passing by her carriage and quietly entering the post station.
About two quarters of an hour later, he quietly walked out of the post station again. The sharp blade hanging on his waist gleamed like snow in the moonlight. Zhu Yue, who lifted a corner of the car curtain, also saw the fresh blood on his knife, and the package he was holding in his arms that obviously did not belong to him.
Zhu Yue looked at the man's scarred face. He didn't look like a vicious person, with blood on his hands, hurting or killing people in the middle of the night, and stealing things, but he didn't look like a very evil person. It was interesting.
Most likely, the dead people should have died a long time ago, so there is no need to worry about it.
After seeing this clearly, Zhu Yue lowered the curtain again.
The man was walking quickly at this time, and except for Zhu Yue, who had an unusual hearing, no one else was disturbed.
The next morning, there were screams of terror at the post station. It turned out that a dead person had been found.
The dead man was the head of the post station, a member of the Zheng family, a local wealthy family.
He actually died in the post station under his control late at night. Neither the imperial court nor the Zheng family would let this matter go.
Soon the post station was surrounded and no one could leave.
