Song Che walked up to Wu Youlun and slowly took off the mask on his face.
"It's you!" Wu Youlun was shocked.
"Before I jumped off the cliff, I told you that I wanted you to pay with your blood. Your Wujiazhuang will soon pay for the lives of the Miao people. This is called the price."
Song Che put on the mask again and took the sword from Lin Yue's hand. All the anger and hatred rubbed into the sword, and with a "pop" sound, he pierced Wu Youlun's heart without hesitation.
"My son!" Wu Yingtian wailed.
"It's not just your son, your wife, your concubines, your children and grandchildren!"
Song Che struck out with his sword again and cut Wu Yingtian's throat. The blood spurted out and stained the white mask red.
He changed his hand, raised the bloody blade in his hand, turned around and shouted to the guests:
"The Wu family father and son, who robbed government officials with the intention of treason and killed innocent people indiscriminately, have been punished on the spot! Officials and fort masters, please take them as a warning. The war is coming. Everyone should work together to resist the Miao rebellion!"
After finishing speaking, he threw the sword back to Lin Yue, flicked his sleeves, and walked out of the living room.
Finish!
After the death of the Wu family father and son, according to the plan, the Tongchuan Mansion immediately sent troops, carrying their heads with them, to attack Wujiazhuang at night.
If you surrender, you will have rest tonight.
If there is resistance, it can be broken in three days.
…
Early the next morning, we reassembled the carriage and continued our journey to Chengdu.
Zhou Ming was also very understanding of the world and donated five hundred taels of silver in his own name. He also prepared a luxurious carriage and thirty carefully selected bodyguards to accompany him.
Jiang Xiaoli was from Miao, and it was not good to leave her in Yanchung Pavilion. She happened to be good at weaving and embroidery, so Song Che and Shen Wenjun simply brought her together. They would help out when the Jinxiu Conference started in the future. , which can be regarded as repaying her life-saving grace.
In the next few days, the road became wider and smoother as we walked.
Now that we have arrived in Chengdu Plain, it is not too far from Chengdu city.
On the morning of the fourth day of June, after two full months, we finally arrived in Chengdu.
Before entering the city, Song Che asked Lin Yue to hurry up and go into the city to exchange flying money and rent a small courtyard so that he could move in directly with his bags.
Chengdu, the most prosperous city in the west of Daliang, Bashu civilization, the hometown of silkworms, and the land of abundance. Too many verbal modifications, on the contrary, make it frivolous - beautiful, generous and prosperous.
"The rent in Chengdu is really expensive. A two-month rent for a courtyard like this with a courtyard, a garden, a lake, and a small building costs 100 taels! It's more expensive than the capital!"
Lin Yue introduced the small courtyard rented by herself as she walked.
This is not a small courtyard, it is clearly a big house.
"Did you pay the deposit without even telling me the price?" Song Che asked.
Lin Yue turned around and said, "You are so rich, why do you have to bargain?"
Song Che smiled bitterly and said, "But being rich and being stupid are two different things. A short-term rental costs one hundred taels for two months, which is at least 30% more expensive."
Lin Yue rolled her eyes and waved her hand in a "sky-big" gesture, "Oh, there are so many of us, so what if we live in a bigger house? A house that can't even fly a kite must have bad feng shui!"
Through the ages, Lin Nvxia is the first person to use kites to determine Feng Shui.
"That..." Qin Huaiyu and Song Linger looked a little embarrassed.
Qin Huaiyu said: "Wenjun, I have discussed with Ling'er. Since we have been together in Kuizhou, you have been paying for food and accommodation. I am really embarrassed to live in your house anymore. We should live outside by ourselves."
But Shen Wenjun took their hands and said, "Embroidery requires quietness and no noise. You don't have any money. How can the location of the house you rent be so good? How can you embroider well like this?"
"That's right, don't be polite. We brought 10,000 taels of money this time, and we can't spend it all... Oh, by the way, speaking of this,"
Lin Yue suddenly put his hand into his chest, fiddled with it a few times, grabbed a handful of "money tickets" and handed them to Song Che: "When I went to Chengdu to exchange flying money at the Zou Academy, they recommended this to me. One banknote and one banknote The denomination of one hundred taels is applicable to all states in Chengdu, which is much more convenient than those heavy coins."
A banknote?
Song Che took the banknote and looked at it. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Chengdu was indeed a city at the forefront of the times. It actually issued its own currency. The complex patterns, seals, materials, and anti-counterfeiting marks on the banknote were all worth learning from.
Qin Huaiyu and Song Linger couldn't refuse their hospitality, so they agreed to stay.
After placing the luggage, it was almost noon.
A trip to Chengdu naturally starts with a delicious meal.
The most famous restaurant in Chengdu is undoubtedly the "Le Si Shu" restaurant, where Sichuan cuisine is the epitome of excellence.
Twice-cooked pork, mapo tofu, kung pao chicken, white meat with garlic paste, husband and wife lung slices, assorted maocai, spicy chicken... The table is full of signature dishes, with all the colors, flavors and flavors that will make your mouth water.
They feasted.
Song Che held a glass of wine and looked out the window at the people's livelihood in Chengdu.
Thinking about Chengdu, this place has been "slow-paced" since ancient times. The people are leisurely and contented, and there is no trace of depression. Living in a place like this, you can live longer, right?
Can,
The Yazhou and Jiazhou areas south of Chengdu were the areas hardest hit by the Miao rebellion.
Do the people in the city not know, or do they not care?
Everyone is like this, if the water is up to their necks, they will never panic.
"Hey, Mr. Wu, you're a little late today."
The waiter greets the distinguished guests with a smile.
I saw a young man with a face like a crown jewel, feminine and handsome, leading three graceful young women with fair skin and beauty up to the second floor.
"It's him!"
Shen Wenjun and Qin Ruo blurted out.
"Who is he?" Song Che asked.
Shen Wenjun said: "As I told you before, Wu Shouxin, the representative figure of Su embroidery in Jiangning City, is the young master of Wu Family Embroidery House!"
Song Che took a look at the young man, and he saw that a man who was good at embroidery was as tender as water.
"Wu Shouxin! Over here!" Shen Wenjun greeted warmly.
Wu Shouxin glanced at Shen Wenjun, his expression was quite aloof, even a little conceited. He walked to the table, pointed at the orchids, and said first:
"I thought you weren't coming."
Song Che got goosebumps when he heard this sissy who lacked Yang energy.
Shen Wenjun was not surprised and started chatting with him.
It was learned that Wu Shouxin had arrived in Chengdu a month ago, and other famous embroideries were also similar. Shen Wenjun and the others were still the last ones to arrive.
Due to the influence of the Miao unrest in the southwest, the number of famous embroidery participants this time was less than half that of the previous year.
Shu Embroidery was the home venue, with a total of eight embroidery companies participating. Hunan Embroidery was relatively close, including Qin Huaiyu and Song Ling'er, with three embroidery companies participating. There are two schools of Guangdong embroidery and Suzhou embroidery, while only one is Fujian embroidery, Shandong embroidery and Beijing embroidery.
"Our two families are both Suzhou embroidery and fellow Jiangnan fellows. Why don't we sit down and eat together?" Shen Wenjun greeted warmly.
Wu Shouxin scanned the people on the table, finally stopped at Song Che, and said a greeting: "Why are there still men?"
Song Che was stunned when he asked, what the hell, there are only men in the world and there are women. Is it weird to have men?
Shen Wenjun took Song Che's arm and introduced with a smile: "He is my husband, Song Che."
Wu Shouxin shook his head, making no secret of his disdain, "I don't like sitting at the same table with men." Then he raised his head and hummed softly, and went around to another seat to sit down.
Song Che couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
He had thought wrong before. In addition to men and women, there are also intersex people in this world who are neither male nor female.
This Wu Shouxin is a hermaphrodite.
An hermaphrodite who likes the yin and yang of others.
