Tangli Villa

Chapter 117 Tangli Villa
The whole group was mighty and mighty, Gu Yinwei was sitting in the carriage, accompanied by Tiantao, Princess Zhaoyang was holding her chin, puffing her cheeks with an air of puff.

A group of people on horseback followed the carriage, and there was another prison cart, in which a criminal was imprisoned, with a straw in his mouth, and his hands and feet were in shackles.

"Water, water."

"I'm so thirsty, I want to drink water."

Yang Xiaohuan was dressed in a prison uniform, with withered hair, and was beating the empty bowl in front of him with an iron chain, clamoring for water.

The guard who escorted him threw a water bag to him, and cursed: "Why don't you drink to death and make you scream like hell."

In the evening, the team listened to rest in front of the woods, and the guards set up tents. Princess Zhaoyang ran into the jungle under the pretext of urinating.

When she came back, she had more than 20 autumn pears in her hand. She took out a knife and slowly peeled them, then sprinkled them with salt and ate them slowly.

Gu Yinwei lifted the curtain of the car and asked, "Princess, where did you get the pears?"

"It was picked from the back mountain."

Gu Yinwei obviously didn't believe it, so Princess Zhaoyang raised her voice and said: "I went to have a rest just now, and I saw a wasteland that no one wanted, and there were a few tall pear trees growing in the field."

"and then?"

"Then I ran up and picked a few randomly."

Gu Yinwei asked the guards to send someone to take a look, worried that Princess Zhaoyang's move would cause trouble.

The guards took the money and were about to go back to the mountain when more than 20 wolf dogs ran out of the woods. The puppies were aggressive and well-trained.

Seeing this, Prince Yimu ran to the carriage, with a look of hating iron but not steel.

"Zhaoyang, are you in trouble again?"

"No, I just picked a few pears."

"You picked pears that were grown by others."

"I saw pears growing on the tree, I picked a few, and I left a penny, can I buy it?"

"The master brought a dog and came to trouble you."

"I'll go out and have a look, at worst I'll fight with them."

"Girls are in every family, how can it be proper to fight and fight all day long?"

Prince Yimu shook his head, Princess Zhaoyang jumped out of the carriage, and there were five farmers standing outside, holding hoes, shovels, sickles, iron tongs and other agricultural tools in their hands.

They were accompanied by more than 20 gray-backed wolfhounds.

The wolf dog howled, its eyes were red, and its body was full of murderous aura. Most of the pastoral dogs raised by mountain farms are docile and know how to get close to people. The main purpose is to guard the courtyard.

However, the habits of wolfdogs and pastoral dogs are quite different. They often follow their masters to hunt in the mountains, chasing rabbits, chasing wild boars, and are good at biting and running.

A wolfhound is enough to bluff people, let alone a pack, Princess Zhaoyang could not help shrinking behind Prince Yimu.

"But if I picked a few autumn pears, is it worth sending the whole village to arrest me?

The village chief wears a red belt around his waist, a rabbit leather jacket, and a blue felt hat on his head.

When he spoke, his voice was loud and loud, "You foreigners are really disgusting. The autumn pears that we farmers planted with great difficulty were stolen by you before we could taste the sweetness and sourness."

Princess Zhaoyang said: "I tasted it for you, this year's autumn pears are very sweet, not sour at all."

Prince Yimu hurriedly pushed Princess Zhaoyang back to the carriage, "Don't make trouble, go back and sit."

The village chief was furious, "The little girl looks like a human, but unfortunately she is a thief."

Princess Zhaoyang stepped on the carriage with half a foot, when she heard the other party call him a thief, she turned back immediately.

"You are the thief. When I picked pears, I put a bag of money."

The village chief said with certainty, "If you left the money, will we still find it?"

"The money was embezzled by you, and you still call me a thief."

There was a lot of noise outside, Gu Yinwei Shi Shiran got off the carriage, and the villagers immediately shut up.

The empress dowager's majesty can most deter civilians.

The village head couldn't help but took a step back, my God, the phoenix crown on his head probably weighs two or three catties, and the person is dressed in purple and purple, this person must be the wife of the imperial court, or the wife of the county owner.

"Although Zhaoyang is naughty, her character is not bad. Since she said she left money, she must not have lied."

"Zhaoyang, lead the way ahead."

With Gu Yinwei supporting her, Princess Zhaoyang immediately walked towards the depths of the jungle.

The nephew of the village chief said: "Uncle, if you don't forget it, they didn't mean to come here."

The village head said: "You can't forget it easily. Everyone comes to steal pears. Sooner or later, Tangli Villa will be stolen by others."

As soon as the nephew of the village chief gave it away, a gray-backed wolfhound jumped in front of Princess Zhaoyang. Princess Zhaoyang waved her hand, and the poisonous powder on the cuff directly poisoned the wolfhound to death.

"Could it be you who took the money I put on the tree? As soon as you heard that I was going to see the scene, you let the dog bite me."

The village chief's nephew faltered, and a dart in Prince Yimu's hand shot at a hairy wolf dog next to the boy.

There was a ring of bells hanging around the wolfdog's neck. The bell was hit by a dart, and two silver notes with a denomination of 100 taels fell down.

Princess Zhaoyang put her hands on her hips: "Okay, you took the money and called me a thief."

The village chief was very embarrassed. He caught the thief all night, but he didn't expect the thief to be by his side.

At this time, a round-faced woman came out of the jungle. The woman's hands were small. She carried a lantern to find her husband.

The round-faced lady had a purse tied around her waist, and Ton Tao looked carefully at the purse.

Then he looked at the purse around his waist that was also embroidered with lotus flowers.

The round-faced woman knelt down as soon as she saw the almond, "Grandfather."

The village head panicked, caught the thief and caught an oolong, but it turned out that this group of outsiders were still Madam's benefactors.

"Master, hurry up and kneel down."

The village chief knelt down next to the round-faced lady.

Gu Yinwei didn't know the round-faced lady, and asked: "Ma'am, I have identified the wrong person, you and I have never met before."

"Although the empress has never met the little woman, the little woman is deeply favored by the empress."

"Late at night, the wind is heavy, please move your mother."

Princess Zhaoyang crossed her arms and said bitter words: "We dare not go, if we go, we will be wronged again."

The round-faced woman stepped forward and held Princess Zhaoyang's hand affectionately: "The little lady is sincere and will not wrong the princess."

Princess Zhaoyang was startled, "How do you know I'm a princess?"

The round-faced woman smiled and said nothing.

Prince Yimu felt that the woman in front of him was extremely familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen her before.

The guard next to Prince Yimu said: "I remembered, you are from the Central Plains who delivered the princess."

The round-faced woman nodded.

Everyone returned to Tangli Villa with the round-faced woman, and talked about the past around the bonfire.

"When I was young, my family was in trouble. On the way to seek refuge with relatives, I met sand bandits. I came to Mobei in a daze. At that time, the princess went hunting with the prince, and accidentally rescued me. Afterwards, I became the servant of the princess."

"I have a pair of small hands in the sky. The great witch of the royal court taught me to deliver babies. It just so happens that the first baby I delivered will be you, the princess."

"Yesterday, I heard the servant girl say that the thief who stole the pear has a pair of red phoenix eyes and a red mole at the end of the eye, so I suspected it was the princess, so I found it, and the princess was 13 years old in a blink of an eye."

Princess Zhaoyang listened quietly, she had no memory of what the round-faced woman said, nor could she think of anything about the round-faced woman.

On the contrary, Prince Yimu's entourage still remembers this incident freshly, did he echo it in Mobei dialect?

"Speaking of which, I have to thank the Empress Dowager. If the Empress Dowager hadn't given the little woman a purse, the little woman might have become someone else's soul long ago."

When the round-faced woman talked about her past in the capital, Gu Yinwei would think of the time when she lived in Xifeng Pavilion. At that time, she was short of food and clothing. In order to subsidize her, Chu Chu spent the whole night doing needlework.

The price of her carefully crafted purse was not high, so she put runes into the purse to increase the price of the purse.

The purse of the round-faced woman was bought from an old woman in Xifeng Pavilion.
