sub gauge sound off

....The old lady Wang handed over the bill that Zhu Wusi had brought back to Seungniang.Cheng Niang stared at the words on it, her brows furrowed tightly, Tuo Huan also leaned over to take a look, and immediately understood the reason for her frown.

The old woman brought hot tea and asked quietly: "Can you two adults explain clearly how my son died?"

"Brother Zhu was poisoned by someone." Cheng Niang replied blankly, pointing to the signature on the bill and asked, "When grandma received the bank note, did she not receive a letter from Brother Zhu's family?"

The old woman nodded vigorously, "The man took the receipt, said that my son entrusted it, and left."

Cheng Niang looked at the bill in her hand and couldn't help sighing—the signature on it was not from the palace, although this was to be expected, it also meant that it was more difficult for them to convict Danasili.

Tuo Huan caressed her vest, comfortingly said: "Don't be discouraged, there is still a way to get rid of Tanashili."

Cheng Niang forced a smile, and after thanking the old woman, they walked out of the shingled house together to think about their next move.Although the purpose of going south is to give evidence to answer Nashili, but Tuohuan has not forgotten his important task of fighting the epidemic. He ordered Guduo to send soldiers to assist the villagers, while he would subtly investigate the situation of Zhongli's epidemic.

Before leaving, he asks Seung-niang if he wants to go with him, but Seung-niang says she still wants to stay at Zhu's house to find any clues left by the boatman.Although he was helpless, he had no choice but to agree, "You stay here well, and Shen Shizhen will come to pick you up to rest in the big tent."

"Your Majesty, please take care of yourself when you are helping the epidemic." After Chengniang Fuli said goodbye to Tuohuan, she walked to the dead tree in the backyard of Zhu's house to watch.

The frosty dead tree seemed lifeless. She suddenly thought of a poem written by Chen Tongfu, which saddened the spring, and sang softly: "...Loneliness is based on lofty thoughts. Go to the south tower and return to the wild goose. The gold hairpin fights the grass, the green silk rein in the horse , the wind and clouds are scattered. Luoshou divides the fragrance, emerald silk seals the tears, how much resentment. I am in ecstasy, and the smoke is thin and the moon is thin, and the sound of the cuckoo is broken." When she sang, she thought of Pu's death, and she wished to lose the answer for thousands of miles. Cut to pieces.

Seung-niang doesn't know that her singing has caught the boy's attention.The boy stared at the figure under the tree in a daze. Although the woman was dressed plainly, she was still very beautiful, shining brightly in the deserted land.He grew up in the village since he was a child. He has never seen such a beautiful woman, and he has never heard such lyrics and music. He can't help but wonder, is that woman a fairy in the sky?

Chengniang looked back at the boy, and remembered that the boy was the son of the boatman. She couldn't help feeling mixed feelings—although Zhu Wusi killed Pu Shi herself, it was because she had to, and she couldn't pass her hatred on to other people.

She stared at the boy and asked with a polite smile, "Is grandma looking for me?"

The boy shook his head vigorously, his cheeks turned red the moment he met Chengniang, he hummed shyly, "I just think the song you sing is really ugly."

"Really?" Chengniang smiled bitterly, she was not emotionally affected by the boy's words, she looked at the dead branches on the top and said: "I just thought that my hometown, my parents and friends are all gone, so I am bored singing songs Quzi, if I bother you, I apologize to you."

Her words made the boy even more embarrassed. He pursed his mouth, quite dissatisfied, "Who said it's hindering me? You sing your song, and I will watch mine."

Chengniang couldn't help but chuckle.

Although it is too unrealistic to place hope on the child, Chengniang still decided to ask the boy about Zhu Wusi, "When your father traveled far to Dadu, did you ever send a letter home?"

The boy tilted his head and thought for a long time, he must have remembered something, and rushed into the shingled house like crazy.Not long after, he ran out again, holding a piece of paper in his hand, panting: "When I was seriously ill, my father gave me a contract before leaving, saying that someone would send a thousand taels of silver. If they don’t deliver it as promised, we can report it to the government... It’s just that I don’t know how to read and don’t understand what’s written on it.”

promise

The author has something to say: I still remember that Lao Zhu said that North Korea is a country that will not be conquered.While this is certainly not the case, let me use it for now.

Also, people in the bar once asked me whether the ending was happy or sad. In fact, I have never written a tragedy (in the long article), so it can basically be regarded as a happy ending.

Zhu Yuanzhang is the actor in the main drama, so I included Zhu Yuanzhang, but I will change the method.Hope you all get used to it.Chengniang took the paper deed from the boy and carefully read the contents on it——and found that every word and every sentence in it could lead to death. She couldn't hide her excitement, and said with a gratified smile: "Son, Thanks to your contract, I can avenge my friend. Thank you very much."

The boy was startled, and the woman's smile shone like sunshine.At this time, he thought of a story his grandma once told, "A Smile Allures the City". At that time, he thought it was an exaggeration, but now he realized that it was true.

He felt that his soul was about to be taken away, and he was stunned for a long time before he smirked, "You're welcome...but why do you want revenge?"

"Do you want me to tell the truth?" Chengniang looked at the young boy, her smile turned bitter in an instant, she was hesitating whether she should tell such a young child about his father's crimes.

But although Zhu Chongba is so immature, his eyes exude a sense of tenacity. With his hands behind his back, he raised his eyes to look at Chengniang, who was taller than himself, "My father is dead, what's the point?"

Chengniang took a deep breath and said: "In order to get a thousand taels of silver to save you, your father made a deal with a Mongolian and killed a Goryeo woman; and that woman is my friend."

Dad killed someone?Zhu Chongba looked at Chengniang in shock, "My father really did that?"

Chengniang patted him on the shoulder trying to comfort Zhu Chongba, because she didn't want such a young child to feel guilty. After all, this was Zhu Wusi's crime. How innocent is the child? "Son, don't hate your father. Although brother Zhu killed my friend, I know that the instigator was the man who lured him into committing a crime. I really hate brother Zhu, but I understand that he was forced to do so because of you... because My father also went through fire and water for me..."

"Then how did my father die?" Zhu Chongba stared wide-eyed, his ears were full of buzzing sounds, he never thought that his life was exchanged for two lives.

Cheng Niang frowned as she thought about it, and said slowly: "Before killing me, she took the poison, but later she committed suicide to put blame on me. But to be precise, the murderers must be those foolish people."

"So my father was murdered by Meng people?"

"So are my friends."

Zhu Chongba couldn't help sighing, "I didn't expect... the injustice suffered by the Koreans is worse than that of the Han people." And because his father killed this woman's friend, he felt so guilty towards her that he couldn't breathe for a while. .

He needs redemption!

He immediately held the woman's big rough hand with his small hands, and vowed: "If there is a future, I will definitely let the Koreans eat and live well, and there will be no more wars."

Chengniang smiled slightly, and only regarded Zhu Chongba's promise as a child's childish words.

Spa

The author has something to say: Everyone is always dissatisfied with Mandarin Duck Bath, but even though the author says he is immoral, he still dare not post too explicitly in a place where minors are watching haha.

If I write a long signing article by myself, I will definitely lose my morals.At Shen Shi, Tuo Huan came to Zhu's house on time to take Chengniang back to the big tent to rest, but the old woman suggested to them to take a soak in a nearby hot spring to relieve the fatigue of the past few days, and they readily accepted.So the old woman asked Zhu Chongba to lead them to a hot spring called "Piaoxue" to rest.

On the way, Zhu Chongba saw a tall man in military uniform and a beautiful woman seeming to be intimate, he couldn't help snorting, and then quickened his pace, almost making the adults behind him unable to keep up with his pace.

After arriving at Piaoxue Hot Spring, Zhu Chongba had a conversation with the man who claimed to be the woman's "husband-in-law" for the first time, "You are the emperor's servant, right? Can you tell the guy sitting on the dragon chair that if he doesn't clean up properly? And it’s a big loss to the people, I promise, the Meng people will no longer be the masters of the Central Plains.”

Tuo Huan unconsciously smiled and rolled his eyes, because he didn't dislike the boy's words, "Your Majesty, he is a very responsible man, and he will definitely live up to your high expectations!"

"In that case, I'll wait and see." Zhu Chongba grinned happily and left immediately.Tuo Huan watched his small body gradually disappear, and his memories overlapped. He actually saw his younger brother Yilin Zhiban who had passed away for many years... I wonder if he was reborn in a good family?

The fluffy snow like white catkins falls from the sky, forming a contrast with the steaming hot spring.

Seungniang quietly contemplates the hot spring, not intending to soak.But Gu Duo brought silk cloth at this moment, and smiled at her, "Your Majesty, you don't plan to soak in the hot spring? It is said that the spring water here can invigorate Qi and blood. If you are worried about the fetus, just soak for a quarter of an hour, and it won't move the fetal gas."

"Really?" Cheng Niang looked down at her swollen belly, hesitated for a long time, and after looking at Gu Duo's earnest eyes, she decided to try it out, "Then can you avoid it first?"

Gu Duo smiled but said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty has already reserved this place. Let the servants take you to another hot spring?" Cheng Niang nodded, and followed Gu Duo into a more remote place.

***

The hot air made Chengniang unable to see clearly.

She stood on the stone, touched the spring water with her toes, and couldn't help smiling.She thought, maybe this is the last time she will enjoy her leisure time?Here she can temporarily abandon the turmoil in the harem, but when she returns to Dadu, she will no longer be able to experience such a sense of freedom.

Humming softly, she took off her coat and wrapped herself in silk.When she was ready, she sat on the rock and slid slowly into the spring.But the moment she entered the water, the water splashed everywhere.

She cried out in horror, and then
