Chapter 424 Do you still remember your daughter Dahua?
With trembling hands, I opened the letter, which contained only a few short sentences.
"Father! Mother! Your son has arrived in the capital of the Wei Dynasty, and we are discussing matters. The divine bird is called Zamao, and it is raised by my sister Doctor Du. When you see it, feed it meat and water. If you have any questions, write to it and ask it to bring them back."
The other letter was written by Du Wanwan to the Ninth Princess.
"Sister! Southern Xinjiang is in danger, please come to Wei quickly. I am waiting for you in the capital. Nothing is more important than your own life. Take care of yourself and the baby."
Although the letter is short, the words reveal a deep relationship and love.
After reading the letter, the queen couldn't help crying: "Wanwan is so good to our Hanyan. She always lends a helping hand in times of crisis. Someone, take this note to the Ninth Princess."
After reading the letter from his third son, the king laughed out loud: "Hahaha! Hahaha! Today is a really good day. The high priest performed a ritual and summoned the divine bird.
The dark clouds in southern Xinjiang will soon disperse, and the colorful clouds will soon arrive. Hahaha! That’s great! "
The third prince did not show the letter to anyone else but the queen. The high priest was still performing a ritual on the platform.
The zamao ate meat and drank water as if no one was around. It was really hungry and needed a good meal.
Yu Hanyan received a letter from Du Wanwan. She heard that it was sent by a divine bird and she was so happy that she almost went crazy.
She stumbled over, saw Zamao, and hugged him.
"Are you the divine bird that Wanwan raised? Wanwan, is it okay?"
After asking, his eyes turned red and tears flowed.
She missed Wanwan.
real.
I really want to.
Wanwan actually knew that southern Xinjiang was not peaceful, and actually asked her to seek refuge in the capital of Wei.
But when she was in trouble, he could do nothing to help her.
Zamao was only concerned with eating at the moment because he was so hungry. Also, the meat was so delicious, tender, juicy and tasty that he didn't want to miss it.
“Hanyan! Let it go. It has traveled a long distance and flown for a long time to get here. It is starving. Don’t disturb it from eating.”
Yu Hanyan naturally listened to the queen's words. She also knew that the divine bird had worked hard to fly across thousands of mountains and rivers to deliver the letter to her.
But between her and Wanwan, only this divine bird could convey her thoughts. Seeing it was like seeing Wanwan. She missed her so much.
I really want to grow a pair of wings and fly to the capital of the Wei Dynasty with it.
After Zamao finished the last piece of meat, he drank several gulps of water, burped, and fell to the ground.
Looking at its funny appearance, Yu Hanyan laughed, knowing that it was full, so she picked it up and returned to her palace.
Neither the king nor the queen objected. Seeing their daughter crying and laughing, they looked at each other, smiled with relief, and tears in their eyes.
Now that he has found his son's whereabouts, everything is going smoothly. It won't be long before his son brings back the advanced weapon, the musket, which will intimidate other tribes.
By then, let’s see who dares to make any moves against the royal court.
Du Wanwan was not in the mood to study what Zamao had encountered. She handed the letter to it, believing that it could deliver the letter well.
Otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste of so much of her precious spiritual spring water?
She must do what she promised Yuehe.
I brought Yesingxiao into Wangjun Tower again, still at night, still went to the second floor, still entered the private room of "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond", and still ordered Yuehe to play and sing.
The pimp took the person away and left. The brothel owner, Mama Qian, did not come to disturb them.
Yuehe played "Ten Sides of Ambush" again. Du Wanwan liked this song. She didn't listen to it completely last time, so she had to appreciate it today.
After the song was over, Du Wanwan told Yuehe: "I'll come to redeem you tonight. Go back later and pack up the things you want to take with you. Wait for me."
"Really?" Yue He was so excited that she knelt down and kowtowed to Du Wanwan, "Thank you very much, sir! Thank you very much!"
Du Wanwan helped the man up in the air: "Call Qian's mother when you go out to discuss the redemption of her body."
"Yes!" Yuehe stood up and walked out holding the pipa.
Not long after, Qian's mother came over with a cheerful face: "Hey! Two gentlemen? What do you want to talk to Qian's mother about?"
Ye Tingxiao had a blank expression on his face and said nothing. This was the tacit understanding between him and his daughter Wanwan.
He picked up the teacup and drank the tea silently, then slowly put it down.
Du Wanwan said her intention slowly: "I plan to redeem Miss Yuehe. Mom, please name a price!"
"Redeem her?" Mother Qian was delighted, but pretended to be sad. "Although Yuehe's reputation has declined in the past two years, she is still young and beautiful.
My mother spent three thousand taels of silver to buy her, plus the food and clothing she has been eating and wearing in the building over the years, so please give her five thousand taels!"
Ye Tingxiao frowned slightly, feeling that his mother was asking for too much money. She wanted to sell an out-of-date pipa musician for five thousand taels of silver. Was she trying to make a fortune from his Wanwan?
"Only five thousand taels?" Du Wanwan smiled and shook her head, "Too cheap. Mother Qian! You underestimate Yuehe's value. How about this! I allow you to raise the price."
What? Raise the price? Are these two outsiders out of their minds? Others who come to redeem the girls in the building are eager to bargain, but she is the one who is eager to raise the price. Is she stupid and rich?
Do you think Yuehe was sold at a low price without considering their face?
"How about ten thousand taels?" Mother Qian asked tentatively.
Du Wanwan shook her head: "It's too cheap, just add more boldly."
Mother Qian was extremely surprised. It was the first time she encountered such a strange thing. She looked at Ye Tingxiao who had an indifferent expression, and then at Du Wanwan who had a smile on her face.
He gritted his teeth and shouted, "Twenty thousand taels."
"puff!"
Yetingxiao spat out a mouthful of tea, which splashed accurately onto Qian's mother's old face. Qian's mother raised her hand and wiped it, and the rouge and powder on her face were blended together.
The face instantly became colorful, like a color palette.
Du Wanwan couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Hahaha! Hahaha! Mother Qian! You are so funny."
Mother Qian looked embarrassed and echoed, "Hehehe! Hehehe! Interesting! Interesting! What do you think of twenty thousand taels, sir?"
"If it's not enough, add more." Du Wanwan laughed and waved her hand with great enthusiasm, "Add until I am satisfied."
Mother Qian was puzzled: Why do you have to increase it until you are satisfied? Shouldn't it be increased until I am satisfied? It is you who want to redeem the person from me, not me who wants to redeem the person from you.
Could it be that this gentleman made a slip of the tongue?
"That's thirty thousand taels."
Mother Qian held out three fingers. Du Wanwan shook her head and then she held out four more fingers.
"Forty thousand taels."
"More."
"Fifty thousand taels."
"More."
"Sixty thousand taels."
"You're adding too slowly. Let me add it for you!" Du Wanwan looked into Mother Qian's eyes. "To be exact, it should be 105,862 taels, Mother Qian! Am I right?"
After hearing this, Mother Qian was completely stunned: "You, you, you, how did you know? Who are you? What do you want to do?"
That was her savings over the years, which she had kept in a secret compartment under her bed. How could this young man know the amount of her private money?
Du Wanwan stretched out an index finger and shook it in front of her: "I don't want to do anything, I just want to ask Mother Qian, do you remember your daughter Dahua?"
