Chapter 175 Don't be afraid, I'll take you away
Not only Boss Bear, but even the pirates in the market were confused by the sudden appearance of a large number of navy troops.
After the emperor took over here, a carpet search was launched.
Cao You brought the Embroidered Uniform Guard with him and wanted to plunder all the land.
The gunpowder formula handed over by the village chief was also found.
Cao You also found a token.
Things from the Dragon Temple.
This means that what happened here is related to the Fourth Prince Ji Wangshu.
The emperor rubbed the black dragon on the token, his eyes were dark and difficult to discern, several layers of wind and clouds were stirring, and a storm was condensing.
The gloom made the entire hall silent.
Only Ji Qionghua broke free from Feng Anan's arms, strolled to the emperor, and tugged at his clothes.
The little guy tilted his head back and yawned.
[I'm so sleepy, Father, when are we going back? ]
The little princess's skin was as delicate as snow. On that snowy skin, her pair of black pupils seemed to be soaked in spring water, clean and warm.
[Isn't it just that my own son hurts my heart? What's the big deal? 】
[He was also planning to use the black powder to blow up the canal, in order to prove the rumor that "the emperor was incompetent and God was angry."]
[If you knew, you would be even more heartbroken. ]
Click, click, click!
The emperor didn't know it before, but now that he heard it, he felt like his heart was like a hornet's nest.
With an indescribable feeling, he ordered Cao You to clean up the matter.
Today we have captured all the pirates. The remaining scattered ones are nothing to be feared. They are just a good opportunity for the navy to practice.
In less than half a month, the canal will be back under the control of the court.
By then, with the cooperation with "Shunfeng Express" which is about to take shape, water and land transportation will be opened, and travel between the east, south, west and north will no longer be a problem.
In order to boost morale, Xiong Lao Da and his ilk were escorted back to Beijing and paraded through the streets for public display.
A sissy bandit leader who was big and strong and whimpered all the time became the topic of conversation in the capital for several days.
Before returning to the capital, the emperor took the little guy back to Nianshui County at Ji Qionghua's intentional or unintentional disturbance.
After the bandits were wiped out, Nianshui County celebrated.
Many people wandered the streets, shouting loudly for the emperor's wisdom.
Among them, Ji Qionghua also heard some people bragging about the National Master Hua Li.
[Father is going to let the charlatan stand in the open. 】
Many people were curious about how the court wiped out the bandits this time. After asking around, they found out that it was the oracle of the imperial master.
With Nianshui County as its source, the legend about the national teacher Hua Li began to spread.
But in fact, the emperor was just using Hua Li's identity to cover up the little guy's uniqueness.
She is still young.
She needs to reduce the attention others pay to her.
As for whether Hua Li was willing or not, that was not within the emperor's consideration.
When you come to Dachen, you have to listen to the words of the Emperor of Dachen.
The overbearing emperor now appeared at the door of a house with Ji Qionghua.
The cause was that Bubai suddenly ran out an incense stick ago, and the little princess wanted to chase him.
It ran away from her and ended up here.
Eunuch Cheng knocked on the door.
"Who is it, calling the soul in broad daylight?"
There was a shout from inside, and from the voice I knew it was not easy to get along with.
The door opened and a man came out.
He looked at the people outside with an impatient expression.
"Who are you and why are you here?"
He was still talking, so Bu Bai bypassed him and rushed into the house.
"Hey, you beast, come out here, I'm going to beat you to death!"
The man quickly chased after him.
The emperor walked in leisurely, holding the little guy in his arms.
A door was slammed.
In the room, a woman had her hands and feet tied.
She lay on the ground, her gray eyes numb and dull.
Next to her, there was a man who had taken off his pants. When faced with the big black dog rushing in, he suddenly went limp and even peed his pants out of fear.
"Zhang Laosan, you must have done this on purpose."
"I'm telling you, I'm not done with you!"
The man grabbed the pants and put them on. After swearing at Zhang Laosan, he covered his face and ran away.
The sunlight outside the house fell through the open door.
When the emperor saw the woman's face, he knew why the little guy came here.
It’s the girl in the bandit camp.
Most of those girls were properly resettled. Si Nan's home was in Nianshui County, and she was sent home personally by officers and soldiers.
The girl had experienced some bad things, and he thought that her family might have some opinions, so he specially asked someone to give her some silver.
But he didn't expect that his daughter, who had just returned home, would be tied up by her father and sold to a man to be abused.
Ji Qionghua slipped out of the emperor's arms.
She walked with unsteady steps to the woman's side and squatted down, and Eunuch Cheng untied the rope.
The little princess's soft fingers brushed away the hair on the other's cheek and pulled the dirty cloth out of the other's mouth.
"Sisi."
Ji Qionghua shouted, her voice was like a ball of cotton, which made the woman who was heartbroken react.
Si Nan's eyelashes were trembling, and his eyes were suddenly filled with water color.
Her chest was rising and falling rapidly.
When her sight focused, she felt like she was dreaming.
Because she saw the cold moonlight that belonged to her again.
This time, it seemed within reach.
"Qiong Huaer..."
Si Nan spoke out words, his hoarse voice mixed with crying.
She hugged the little one and burst into tears.
"Please take me away, please."
"Take me with you. As long as I follow you, I will be willing to work like a slave for you."
The broken tone made Ji Qionghua pat the other person's back to comfort him.
[Don't be afraid, I'm here to take you away. ]
[How could I leave you to a beast who sold you?]
These words made Si Nan burst into tears.
It was her father who sold her to the pirates.
After she came back from this disaster, she wanted to end her life with a white silk rope, but was deceived by the other party with the affection of family.
She thought they had changed, but they actually wanted her to earn money by entertaining customers at home.
She really hates it.
The interaction between the two, one big and one small, was very touching, but Zhang Laosan couldn't stand it.
"Who are you anyway? I can sue you for trespassing into someone's house."
"You know this stinky girl, right?"
"If you want to take her away, you have to pay. This is the price."
Zhang Lao San rubbed his hands and named a price.
"Twelve taels."
Si Nan, who was in the midst of a breakdown, also heard these words.
She restrained herself and let go of Ji Qionghua.
"Thank you for your kindness, sir, but I am not worth so much money."
"You guys should leave quickly."
As she said these words, she looked at Zhang Lao San with resentment.
They are father and daughter, and also enemies.
She would never let the other party take any advantage of her again.
"Isn't she your daughter? Why do you want to sell her without asking any questions?"
The emperor asked the other party.
The expression on that face was particularly fierce.
If anyone dared to treat his own Qiong Huaer like this, he would make that person's life a living hell.
"Oh, who cares about a little girl? She's already dirty. If she doesn't sell for some money, she can just stay at home and eat dry food."
"I'm telling you, if you want to buy something, hurry up and don't delay my business."
Zhang Laosan gave a lewd smile.
In his eyes, his daughter is not as important as money.
"presumptuous!"
Eunuch Cheng's scolding made Zhang Laosan tremble with fear.
Then he saw soldiers rushing in. As Zhang Laosan stared in amazement, he was kicked to his knees on the ground.
Cao You was very considerate and pressed the other person's head to make him have a French kiss with the ground.
