Tianjia
Chapter 42
In the end, all the new summer clothes of this season were kept, but they were put at the bottom of the box.
The only male servant in the house chose to carry forward the spirit of hard work and simplicity, continued to wear old cotton clothes, and maintained a strict and solemn attire.
This made Xia Chu very distressed. I didn't expect that even if the young master let go, this male from a remote area would still not dare to do anything that he felt was beyond the reach.
Bai Ming came into contact with the male servant earlier than Xia Chu, and felt that the other party might have such a low-key personality, so he didn't fight or grab, and he didn't know how to take the initiative to please the young master.
The two of them sighed secretly, they were so sad.
Gu Yun didn't know that the two servants hated iron but not steel. After recuperating for a month from his injuries, he finally recovered a lot.
Although the medicine here has never been seen before, it is very effective, even faster than the high-tech medical methods he used before.
On an early morning when the scorching sun hadn't even had a barbecue, the beast carts were already ready outside the house.
Because of the long journey, Steward Cheng did not follow, he stayed in the house, while Bai Ming and Xia Chu were also unable to squeeze into the envoys.
After all, under normal circumstances, too many males are not allowed to participate in such important matters, lest they become too masculine and travel is unfavorable.
"Master, you must take care of yourself on this journey, be careful in everything, and put safety first!" Cheng Butler was worried, as if sending the young master to the front line.
However, this is not much easier than going to the front line... That is the Eastern Continent, a ghostly place like a dragon's pool and a tiger's den. How many young talents have been lost in a foreign land, and they can't return to their hometown.
Thinking of this, Butler Cheng became more and more uneasy.
Xi comforted him with an indifferent face, "Don't worry, I have discussed this matter with my godfather. You can always trust Cheng Shuiqing."
Steward Cheng coughed anxiously, and said, "No matter what, you can't leave Ling and Jiu, and don't send them both out at the same time like before."
"Otherwise, if you are in danger and you can't save in time, what should you do..."
Xi smiled, patted Butler Cheng on the back, and said nothing.
He went to the imperial palace, had a few meals with Jia Di and his godfather, and learned some secret inside information.
Naturally, these things cannot be easily said, no matter how surprised or unbelievable.
When Gu Yun walked out of the gate, he could see the simple and damp alley, which was a little out of place with the luxurious and grand animal carts.
He didn't allow his servants to help him, and directly lifted his legs into the beast cart, and the female master was already waiting inside.
The long road is long, and it takes half a month in a flash.
Gu Yun did not expect that the distance between Donglu and Xilu was so far away, and the speed of the beast cart he was riding in was no less than that of some modern means of transportation.
Even so, it took a long time before they successfully arrived at the central imperial city of Donglu.
Gu Yun lifted the curtains of the animal cart and looked at this even more unfamiliar place. Whether it was the architectural style or the clothing of the residents, it was really quite different from Xilu.
He noticed that most of the males walking on the street had rosy complexions, steady steps, walked with their heads held high, without flinching, and there were no shackles or collars around their necks.
They don't seem to be tagged by any females, don't need to carry so-called identification, and aren't preyed upon at will.
Although there are still a lot of males here, it can be seen that the number of females and sub males is relatively small, but Gu Yun has not seen any unsightly sights along the way.
When he observed the surrounding residents, those residents also looked curiously at this new mission.
In their eyes, the Western Continent is not a good place, it is better than the wilderness, at least it has a certain level of civilization.
But the basic system is so barbaric and feudal, not civilized at all!
When they saw the male in the beast cart, they were surprised at first, there was such a beautiful and outstanding one to use?
Then he realized that the other party should be the servant or slave who came to envoy, so he couldn't help feeling sorry.
"See what he's wearing around his neck?"
"I heard that in Xilu, the male slaves and servants must wear the female master's mark, otherwise they are equivalent to unowned objects and can be captured at will."
"Poor, what a backward place..."
"Would it be the same as the male slaves in the last mission, the collar was welded to the skin?"
"It hurts to think about it, don't they think it's ugly, like a dog."
"What's ugly, he might have other marks on him too!"
It doesn't matter for Gu Yun to be the subject of discussion. After all, he can also take this opportunity to understand some thoughts and habits of the local residents.
However, when he still wanted to take a few more glances, the curtain was pulled down by the female beside him.
Xi hooked Xiong Shi's waist, and said lightly, "It's almost here, get ready."
Is it time to arrive at the residence? Gu Yunshun nodded obediently, but he had been preparing for a long time...the animal cart stopped.
Gu Yun was settled in a spacious and luxurious garden-style old house with beautiful scenery.
His mistress had just settled down, before she had time to change her clothes and freshen up, a team of guards came to the door, saying that they wanted to invite him to the imperial city, it was extremely urgent and there was no delay.
No way, when they arrived, they realized that the incident caused by the previous mission had further aggravated, and it had developed to the point where at noon today, they were cut off at the intersection of the street.
Since Xi had received the task, he had to clean up the mess. He didn't leave immediately, but before leaving, he deliberately kept Jiu and confessed a few words in a leisurely manner.
No matter how urgent it is, there is still... a little time before noon.
Xi kissed Xiong Shi who went out to see him off, and said, "Don't go out until I come back."
Gu Yun is not used to this kind of intimate behavior, he subconsciously turned his face away, but was pushed back by his chin.
Xi squinted his eyes and said, "The rules and customs here are different from those in Xilu. If you have anything to do, just ask Jiu to deal with it."
Gu Yun frowned and lowered his eyes, and replied gently, "I will obey the order of the female master, and dare not act without authorization."
At the same time, Xi confessed to Jiu, saying, "If I don't come back for a while, no matter what post I receive, just put it aside and ignore it."
Jiu responded respectfully, hesitated for a moment, and said, "But according to the usual rules, the envoy team has to receive some important visitors who come to visit, and we can't turn them all away."
Otherwise, the act of going out every year to establish diplomatic relations would not have much value for the masses, and it would be better to go directly to the palace to find Emperor Jia to give gifts.
Xi sneered, and said, "I am the only envoy this time. If anyone insists on coming, I will let him sit on the bench and not include three meals or stay overnight."
Jiu said cautiously, "If the envoy has a male attendant or a male emperor, according to the local rules, it is necessary to meet with him on his behalf..."
Xi glanced at the waiter beside him, and ordered lightly, "If you really can't push it away, just meet him and have a sip of tea, and leave the other matters to Jiu."
Gu Yun nodded again. He didn't have much choice, but he was very happy to accept such an arrangement.
Jiu, however, was a little worried, thinking that those visitors might look down on this male waiter, because the cultural differences between the eastern and western continents led to some differences in customs and habits.
Walking on the street just now, he could hear the gossip very clearly, but there was no good way to deal with it.
Gu Yun didn't care about these things, he just felt that being able to meet the local residents, whether they were low-level commoners or high-ranking officials and nobles, was much better than being locked in a house, like living from one wall to another .
Perhaps, some useful information can be found here, and a clue to go home can be found.
Xi Rangjiu stepped back first, then lightly touched Xiongshi Wushuang's handsome face, moved his hand down, and touched the cold collar, the thin chain on it shone with a silver-white shimmer.
This is a design that, once put on, cannot be reopened from the opening, preventing escaped slaves from taking it off by themselves.
It's just that this priceless shackle was broken by Xi in a second.
Gu Yun didn't even feel any discomfort, and in the blink of an eye, he saw the collar broke in two and fell to the ground.
Gu Yun was slightly taken aback, and then he heard the female say, "Do as the Romans do, you don't need to wear it."
He raised his hand and touched his neck subconsciously, and he really felt a lot more relaxed.
In fact, this collar is not heavy, perhaps because of the metal material, it can be said to be as light as nothing, but it is still a collar stuck to the neck, so it cannot be ignored directly.
At this time, only the silver-white chain was still wrapped around the neck, then drooped along the skin, and was hidden in the collar, which looked more like a beautiful jewelry.
"Thank you for your thoughtfulness." Gu Yun said sincerely.
He thought it was over, but he saw the female put her hand in again, as if... preparing to untie the entire chain.
However, one end of the chain is hung around the neck, and the other end is inside the clothes.
Gu Yun was caught off guard and couldn't help snorting.
After breathing lightly for a few times, he couldn't help holding down the opponent's hand, and said in a low and magnetic voice, "The female master has mercy, please let the slave do it by himself."
Xi raised his eyes to look at the male attendant, chuckled lightly, and said, "Time is running out now, so don't be in a hurry to perform for me."
Gu Yun: "...the slave will be fine soon."
He just untied the chain, it should be very fast.
Xi thought for a while, and said, "So you are so interested... There are many kinds of chains at home, with different thicknesses and lengths, and all kinds of materials. I will let you try different winding methods and binding strengths after you go back."
"You can tell me what else you like, I don't care, I don't pick performances."
These things are necessary daily necessities for adult females. Although Xi didn't usually use them, Butler Cheng also prepared some for him and put them all in the warehouse.
After being silent for a moment, Gu Yun put down his hands helplessly, and said with difficulty, "Sorry, I just found out... I'm not good at this kind of thing."
Xi glanced at the clumsy waiter, sighed lightly, and said, "Pick up the robe, and I will continue to untie it."
Gu Yun was stunned for a moment, but didn't react immediately.
Xi smiled and said intentionally, "Why, do you want to have your hands tied behind your back and you can only hold the corner of your clothes with your teeth?"
Gu Yun: "..."
He had no choice but to cooperate impatiently, so that the female master could untie the silver chain.
The only male servant in the house chose to carry forward the spirit of hard work and simplicity, continued to wear old cotton clothes, and maintained a strict and solemn attire.
This made Xia Chu very distressed. I didn't expect that even if the young master let go, this male from a remote area would still not dare to do anything that he felt was beyond the reach.
