It's hard to love a concubine

Chapter 731

The spring in Yumenguan is always later than other places. In Kyoto, the plum blossoms are already in bloom, and when the leaves are green, Yumenguan is still a bit desolate. There is a quarry on Fenghuoshan in Longle Town. Prisoners from all over the world will be sent here. The life of the exiled people is not good, but some people are born to be eloquent and good at coaxing people. Deng Qiquan has been the little boss here for a month. He is in charge of managing the twenty or so prisoners below.

Speaking of these prisoners, they are not simple. Among the twenty people, there is actually a fourth-rank official who used to be the governor of Shuntian Prefecture, but he was exiled here because he was implicated in the case of King Rong. Wu Quan, the all-time favorite bodyguard by the emperor's side.

Compared with before, Wu Quan was more taciturn, and even refused to say a word, and only when he was having lunch at noon, he saluted a lame woman with eyes.

The sun has risen in mid-air, Yumen Pass is cold at night, but it is strangely hot during the day, Wu Quan is wearing a coat that is so washed that the original color cannot be seen, with half of his strong chest exposed, he is feeling as tall as a half-man. The stone was dropped, and after a while, sweat was all over his forehead and chest.

There is a thatched hut in the middle of the quarry, and there are three or four stoves at the door. At the moment, four or five women are sitting together washing vegetables. Among them, a young woman wearing a flowered cloth skirt looks in Wu Quan's direction, holding back With burning eyes, the middle-aged aunt with a dark complexion couldn't help but smile and said, "Wu Quan is really good looking, but you are almost drooling if you stare straight at me like this. To make people laugh? It is said that he was once a high-ranking official in Kyoto, but it is a pity..."

A skinny middle-aged woman next to him said, "So what if he is a high-ranking official? He is not a prisoner now? It is his luck that Ah Hua likes him. What else can he dislike?" Looking at the young woman with great pride, he pointed to her butt and said, "Can't you see, this is fertile, and the first child is guaranteed to be a son."

The women roared with laughter, but the woman named A Hua didn't feel shy, instead she straightened her back. Yumen Pass is different from the capital, there are not so many male and female defenses, and often both men and women eat at the same dinner table and don't feel that there is anything wrong , because life here is hard, so women are relatively tough, otherwise it will be difficult to survive.

"But Wu Quan never looked at me directly." Ah Hua said a little shyly.

At this time, a lame woman came over carrying two bundles of firewood. She was tall and slender, with a calm expression, but her face was tanned by the sun at Yumen Pass, otherwise she would be considered a beauty.

"I know who Wu Quan likes, I like Axuan! Every time he serves dinner, he keeps staring at Axuan." Ahua was very unhappy, and said with a pouted mouth, "She is missing a leg, so is she?" What good is an exiled prisoner?"

Qi Jinxuan came to the front and just heard A'hua's voice. She pretended not to hear it, put down the firewood, and started to cook. But after a while, the stove caught fire, and she turned her head and said to the women, "Dish preference Just bring it here, I'm going to cook."

Qi Jinxuan does two things by herself, one is cooking while cooking, and she has to check whether the steamed buns in the other pot are cooked. In fact, these should be the work of two people, but there is one person who hates him very much, that is, Deng Qiquan.
