cpa300_4(); Some people say that in the North Realm, especially in Songzhou, such dramas are played out almost every day. (Read the latest chapter┲﹊请丄﹏☆~ωǒ看书阁]Ｗｗ.КＡＮ�sＨUｇe.℃Ｏм) Duanmu Anguo has taken over all the women in the city, but not all of them are willing to enter his fake palace. A girl is thirteen years old and has not yet reached the age of marriage. According to the saying of Dashun Zhongtu, a girl who has not reached the age of marriage is a girl and cannot be married.
But in this wild northern border, these things don't matter. Moreover, Duanmu Anguo is very fond of women, especially young girls, so these girls, who are still children, are always worried that they will be caught and taken to the Winter Palace. As for Duanmu Anguo's twelve concubines, they are a level higher than the Winter Palace, which is equivalent to a promotion.
Now another woman is escaping, and no one in the street cares or stops her, because she will be caught by her family after running a few steps. The people in the Northern Territory are used to selling their daughters for fame and fortune, and they even hope that their daughters can be favored. After all, as long as their daughters stay in the Winter Palace, they can be exempted from all taxes.
Feng Yuheng saw that the girl was quickly captured, and then her family stood on the street and said to a middle-aged man who looked quite elegant: "Sir, please rest assured, my husband and I will definitely train our little girl well, and send her to the Fantasy House later to make sure she is obedient."
The middle-aged man sighed lightly and said, "Every year during the banquet of a hundred families, a few girls from our Huanguan will be selected by the Grand Commander to enter the Winter Palace. That is a good thing that changes their destiny. Originally, the people from Huanguan would never easily come out to choose, let alone in such a hurry. But this year we sent a group of people to Qianzhou to perform. Qianzhou said that the envoys would bring them back before the New Year. Unfortunately, it was King Lian who came this year. He didn't mention this matter, and we couldn't ask, so we hurried out to find a replacement. But if your daughter doesn't want to, it doesn't matter. This kind of thing can't be forced. Huanguan will never bring an unwilling woman into the Winter Palace." After he said that, he bowed slightly and turned to leave.
Feng Yuheng stared at the person's background for a while, his eyes moved, and before an idea could form in his mind, he simply raised his hand and twisted her arm while walking, and then said fiercely: "Can you let me worry less? Don't have that ghost idea."
Feng Yuheng spread his hands, "But if we don't come up with this trick, how can we get into the Winter Palace? I don't believe that you can get in without being noticed with your lightness skills. It's okay that there were many people in the Dutong Mansion that day, but since the Winter Palace is Duanmu Anguo's small palace, they will definitely not let down their guard. What's more, something happened in the Dutong Mansion just now, and he didn't have time to find us."
Ban Zou still shook his head, "No matter what you say, I don't agree."
"If you don't agree, then come with me." Feng Yuheng winked at Ban Zou, "There is always a loophole in a hundred precautions. I chose the path of the Illusion House. Can you also find a way?"
This made Ban Zou think seriously. He knew that his master always kept her word and it would not be easy to change her mind. The only option now was for him to go in as well. If anything went wrong, at least he would have someone to take care of him.
Seeing that Ban Zou had listened carefully, Feng Yuheng pursed her lips and chuckled. The two of them just walked like this, and they didn't know when they turned. After leaving the crowd, Ban Zou immediately took her up and went straight to the inn where Lu Tongpan was staying.
Now Feng Yuheng absolutely did not believe that Lu Tongpan was stupid enough to run away. Without the list, even if he memorized it in his head and told it to Duanmu Anguo, the authenticity of the list would be reduced. For Lu Tongpan, the only person he could rely on was Feng Yuheng.
Sure enough, the two of them didn't wait long in the room before Judge Lu came back dejected. He wasn't surprised at all that Feng Yuheng was already in the room, but he asked her a little nervously: "The day after tomorrow is the Hundred Family Banquet, Princess, how should this humble official get past Duanmu Anguo?"
Feng Yuheng spread his hands: "Tell him there was a list, but unfortunately it was burned in the fire."
Pan Lu shuddered. If he said this, he would be killed immediately by Duanmu Anguo, right?
Ban Zou poured himself a cup of tea and told him while drinking it: "There will be many people in the Winter Palace tomorrow, and the Prince of Qianzhou will come again. Don't worry, Duanmu Anguo will not have the time to bring up this matter with you and make things bad for himself. You can hide for one day, but if you can't hide anymore, I will personally send you out of the city." I will personally send you on your way.
Judge Lu nodded and said, "I hope so. Thank you, young man."
Feng Yuheng and Ban Zou did not stay in this room for long. They just sat for a while and then went their separate ways. Feng Yuheng went straight to the Illusion House, but Ban Zou was mysterious and refused to say where he was going. She was too lazy to care. This kid was getting more and more capable. Since he could chase all the way from the capital to the northern border without anyone noticing, he would naturally be able to sneak into the Winter Palace. Duanmu Anguo, you didn't have a good birthday, but you didn't know that this princess didn't plan to let you have a good year.
There is only one illusion house in Songzhou, which is specially used for performances for the Dutong Mansion. The so-called illusion is nothing more than magic in later generations, but in later generations, most of them are assisted by high-tech lighting props, which requires much lower skills from the illusionist. It was different in ancient times. There were no high-tech gadgets. Everything depended on simple props and the hands of the illusionist. Before leaving, Lu Tongpan told her that this illusion house in Songzhou City has been passed down for several generations. The founder was Qian Zhouren. The illusions used were all related to ice and snow, which were very wonderful. Duanmu Anguo's obsession with illusions was no less than that of women, so this illusion house was passed down from generation to generation, and eventually became Duanmu Anguo's private property.
Feng Yuheng dressed up as an ordinary girl and walked towards the Illusion House. Gradually, more people walked on the street, most of them were girls of the same age and height as her. Looking at the direction they were walking, they were all heading for the Illusion House. A few talkative girls said, "It's rare for the Illusion House to recruit new people. In the past, even if they wanted to recruit, they would carefully select them. But this time, I heard that they lost a lot of girls. They were left behind after a thousand weeks. It's a bargain for us. I heard that as long as you can enter the Illusion House, you can get a sum of money, and the monthly reward is also very high. The most tempting thing is that every year, no less than ten girls in the Illusion House will be selected by the Grand Commander to enter the Winter Palace. Xiaoya, your mother is seriously ill and your family can no longer support you. This is an opportunity!"
The girl named Xiaoya had a worried look on her face, and she was obviously not willing to go on this trip. She asked the girl who had just spoken, "Is there no other way? I really don't want to go."
The girl said helplessly, "Since your mother got sick, your family has borrowed money from all the people they know. Yesterday I saw your father knock on the door of the Li Mansion again, but they didn't even open it. To be honest, unless you give up your aunt, you really have no other choice."
Another girl next to her advised her, "Xiao Ya, you are the most beautiful among us. As long as you can enter the Fantasy House, you will be chosen! As long as you can enter the Winter Palace, Lord Duanmu will give your family a large sum of money. Not only will your mother's illness be cured, but your life in the future will also be better."
Xiaoya smiled bitterly, sighed softly, and followed them helplessly.
Feng Yuheng took two quick steps and looked at Xiaoya a few times. She saw that the woman had delicate features and was really pretty. Not only was she pretty, but what surprised her the most was that the woman's features were vaguely similar to hers. Feng Yuheng observed and gradually felt that if Xiaoya's sad face was removed, the similarity could even reach about 70%. That was already quite similar!
She slowed down her pace and made up her mind in an instant, so she walked even slower and simply followed Xiaoya from a distance, all the way to the door of the illusion hall.
The fact that the Magic House was recruiting people alarmed many women in Songzhou City who were harboring fantasies. She saw at least dozens of girls gathered in front of the door. A gentleman set up a small table at the door and recorded the visitors one by one. At the same time, the women had to show their household registration certificates to the other party for inspection.
Xiaoya did the same thing, but she was a little reluctant. However, she finally succumbed to the instigation of her sisters and submitted her household registration.
These girls did not enter the Illusion House immediately, but returned home after registering. Feng Yuheng heard someone say that the Illusion House wanted to conduct a preliminary screening of their identities and appearances, and that the selected girls would be picked up by a carriage early the next morning.
She followed Xiaoya all the way back to her home. The house was not shabby, but too deserted. There was only an old man guarding the door and a cleaning boy in the yard. As she walked further in, she could hear the woman coughing. Xiaoya pushed the door open and called out, "Mother."
Feng Yuheng hid in the space and followed in, appearing in a corner of the room. He immediately saw the seriously ill woman lying on the bed and Xiaoya with tears on her face.
The woman asked her, "Where have you been?"
Xiaoya said, "Go borrow some money." She raised her hand to wipe away her tears and said nothing more.
The woman coughed for a while, and finally managed to calm down her pulse. She hurriedly warned Xiaoya: "You and your father want to borrow money, I can't stop you, but Xiaoya, remember, you can have any idea, but you must not bring it to the governor. You must not enter the governor's mansion."
Xiaoya couldn't hold back her tears, she half turned around and quickly wiped them away, then said to the woman: "Don't worry, mother, I won't do that."
The woman sighed, somewhat unconvinced, but helpless, she said: "If you got the silver by such means, I would rather chew my tongue and kill myself than spend a penny!"
The strong coughing that followed eventually made her fall into a new coma. Xiaoya was finally able to cry out loud, saying over and over again: "Mother, I'm sorry, Xiaoya doesn't want to lose you, but there is really no other way. The Dutong Mansion is gone, but there is still the Winter Palace. Your daughter may not have the opportunity to fulfill her filial duties in front of you in the future."
She cried more and more sadly, and she didn't even know when someone stood behind her. She only felt a hand gently covering her shoulder, and then a girl's voice came to her, saying: "I can cure your mother's disease."
