Chapter 159

Shangguan Qi said indifferently: "The general's words are serious. The relationship between the harem and the former court is not that great, and there is no possibility of the harem interfering in politics. Peace, the world will be at peace."

Zhang Chu was blocked back, and now he didn’t want to fight against the Shangguan’s family, so he held back and said nothing.

Until the end of the morning court, everyone just talked about some small things in a normal way, and they were all small things in various places.

While Jun Shecang was going to the morning court here, Mo Qingli had already walked more than 100 miles along the river, and when she reached the downstream, she did not take a boat anymore, and directly chose to rest on the shore.

The downstream towns are far less prosperous than the capital city, but they also have a unique view of the south of the Yangtze River. The corners of the eaves are low, the walls are gray and white, and every household is planted with flowers and plants, and plantains are the most common.

Mo Qingli wandered the streets, took a rest for a day, bought a horse, and planned to go south along the road.

There is a mountainous area to the south, and the road in the middle of the mountain is a bit rough. After walking for half a day, Mo Qingli felt a little thirsty, so she got off her horse and wanted to ask for some water in a nearby village.

Finally, I walked into the entrance of the village and saw a girl, wiping tears while walking into a deserted wood.

Mo Qingli's ability to recognize people is very strong, she could tell at a glance that something was wrong with this girl, so she tied up her horse and followed quietly.

The girl stumbled as she walked, she was in a trance, and she never thought that someone would follow her.

Mo Qingli followed her to the river, only to hear the girl cry, "Grandpa, my granddaughter is not filial, so I can't take care of you."

After finishing speaking, she jumped up and jumped straight into the river.

Mo Qingli expected it right, this woman really wanted to seek death, she couldn't bear it, because no one wanted to live more than her, and after going through life and death several times, she understood how precious life was than anyone else.

So Mo Qingli didn't say anything, and immediately flew up to save the woman.

The girl was startled, looked at her in surprise and said, "Who are you?"

Mo Qingli said lightly, "I'm just a passerby. You are young, why do you want to commit suicide?"

The girl cried and said: "You shouldn't save me, you should let me die. You are not saving me, you are harming me."

"She's here, she's here, hurry up and grab it." Several men rushed out from the woods, and the leader, a fat man, pointed to this side and said excitedly.

The girl immediately showed a look of fear, and was about to jump into the river in a panic.

The fat man hurriedly shouted: "Su Xiaocui, if you dare to jump into the river, we will arrest your grandfather to pay off the debt, and let him, an old man, spend his whole life in prison."

Su Xiaocui turned cold when she heard this, looked at the fat man sadly and said angrily: "Wang Fu, you are devoid of conscience, you pretended to be merciful to buy our family's food, and then sued our family's food, bribing the county magistrate to blackmail us , forcing me to be your concubine."

The fat man named Wang Fu said straightforwardly: "Master, I bought your grain out of good intentions. You don't appreciate it? You actually mixed bran and broken rice into the grain. I'll tell you that it's too light, otherwise I'll let you buy it." All of them will be sent to jail and beaten."

"Bah, you are shameless, even if I die, I will not be your concubine." Su Xiaocui cursed angrily.

Those people had already gathered around, and they couldn't help being stunned when they saw Mo Qingli.

Su Xiaocui's face is fair and clean, although she has a bit of beauty, but the woman standing next to her can be said to be a fairy descended from heaven, a pair of dewy eyes are staring at them, her soft red lips are slightly pursed, her beautiful face is like a painting. Fairy on it.

These rough guys in the village have never seen real beauties. Sister Hua in the brothel thought she was a fairy. When she first saw Mo Qingli, she couldn't believe her eyes.

Wang Fu swallowed impatiently, and said with a smile: "This beauty, why is she here alone? But I can't find my way? I know this place very well, so I can help you."

Su Xiaocui hurriedly said: "Girl, you'd better go away, this Wang Fu is a bully in our village, don't stay here."

Mo Qingli glanced at Wang Fu. He was obese and fat-headed, but he was just an ordinary commoner. None of these people had any foundation in martial arts, and they were not good enough to fight on their own.

"Come on, let's go back with me." Wang Fu raised his hand, and the people behind him rushed up to grab them both.

Su Xiaocui was so frightened that she closed her eyes, only hearing the sound of the wind in her ears, she opened her eyes quickly, just in time to see Mo Qingli make a move, her body was as light as a bird, kicking out and kicking people alive Going to the side, those few people couldn't survive a few tricks under her hands, and they were thrown to the ground, screaming non-stop.

Wang Fu saw that he had met a heroine, so he ran away quickly, fearing that he would also be beaten.

Mo Qingli clapped her hands, it was so easy to drive them away, she turned to Su Xiaocui and said, "It turns out that you wanted to commit suicide because of this, and now that the rascals have been beaten away by me, they shouldn't dare to come again." looking for your trouble."

Su Xiaocui said timidly: "But they have IOUs in their hands, and the county magistrate forced us to draw and sign them in the county government office, saying that it is convenient to pay back the money."

"It's a bunch of nonsense." Mo Qingli frowned. She didn't expect that in a small village, the officials would be so poorly ruled that they forced an innocent girl to seek death.

"Thank you sister for saving me today. It's just that they will force me when I go back. I have no parents. I depend on my grandpa for life. Grandpa is blind again. I really don't know who can take care of grandpa without me."

Su Xiaocui cried aggrievedly as she spoke.

"Since there are bullies here, why don't you move away?" Mo Qingli asked.

Su Xiaocui sighed helplessly, "Where can we go? Our family is impoverished, and we all rely on the ten acres of land left in our family to make a living. Now we have to be beaten by that vicious Wang Fu."

"Move to the town, I'll stay and help you." Mo Qingli was fine anyway, acting chivalrously, and saving people was not difficult.

Su Xiaocui said in surprise, "You want to stay and help me?"

Mo Qingli nodded, "Anyway, I know how to do it. If they come to bully you again, I can help you deal with it, so that you, the old and the young, don't suffer."

"But, why did you help me?" Su Xiaocui still asked a little uneasy. She was a little surprised that such a beautiful woman suddenly appeared to help her.

Mo Qingli smiled, "Because in your opinion, what is a big deal is just a matter of little effort in my opinion. People like me don't like people who despise their own lives, and they can save other people's lives. In my opinion It's worth it to do anything."

Su Xiaocui wiped her tears, "If you hadn't saved me today and helped me fight off Wang Fu's gangsters, Su Xiaocui would definitely be a dead person, thank you benefactor for saving me today, great kindness, Xiaocui can only repay it in the next life .”

"If you want to report to the future, I don't care about you." Mo Qingli said lightly, "A person who can't live well in this life, what qualifications does he have to talk about the afterlife, come back with me to lead the horse, and then lead the way."

Mo Qingli led the horse and followed Su Xiaocui into the village. It could be seen that the village was not rich. Many houses were dilapidated adobe houses, and some were green brick houses. Chickens and ducks were placed at the door, and cattle and sheep were tied.

Su Xiaocui's family is quite upright. According to her, they are outsiders. When they came to this place, they still had a little savings. It's just that grandpa's health is not good, and taking medicine for years has cost a lot of money. There is no strong labor force, and the land at home is leased to others. Su Xiaocui usually makes purses and entrusts the salesman to sell them in the town, in exchange for some daily vegetable money.

"Grandpa, I'm back." Su Xiaocui shouted as soon as she entered the door.

An old man opened his eyes wide, but his eyes were completely dull. He carefully explored the road ahead with a walking stick in his hand, and said in a trembling voice: "Xiao Cui, that hooligan Wang Fu has brought someone to arrest you. What are you doing back here, do you have anything to do, run away quickly."

Su Xiaocui said: "Grandpa, Wang Fu really went to arrest me, but this sister passed by and beat them back, and she also said that she would help us move to the town so that Wang Fu's group can no longer harass us .”

The old man didn't have the surprise he imagined, but said suspiciously: "What sister? Why did you help us?"

Mo Qingli said, "Hello, old man."

Hearing Mo Qingli's voice, the old man trembled slightly, "The girl is not from the local area."

"That's right, I came from the capital. I wanted to travel all the way south. I passed by here just now. I wanted to go to the village to ask for a drink. I didn't expect to see your granddaughter wanting to die. It's not easy to live a life." , I rescued her, and I can help you solve all the difficulties you encounter, but I don't plan anything, it's just a little effort, so don't worry." Mo Qingli said straightforwardly.

The old man had a look of melancholy on his face, "The capital city, that's a good place."

"Old man, have you ever been to the capital?" Seeing his expression, Mo Qingli asked curiously.

The old man smiled, "I was lucky enough to stay there for a while when I was young. I don't know what the capital is like now?"

"Grandpa, please sit down quickly and let my sister rest for a while. My sister has already had a hard time traveling." Su Xiaocui said coquettishly.

"Okay, okay, grandpa, sit down now." The old man smiled, and he obeyed the granddaughter's words. He said politely: "Our place is really simple, and please take care of me if there is any negligence."

"You don't have to worry, I'm used to hard times, and I'm not that delicate." Mo Qingli found that although this old man lived in such a poor village, his speech and behavior were different from those of the native villagers, and he was very well-behaved.
