Chapter 11 Section Eleven
I found out later that it was those unkempt monkeys among them who came to save Zigong, but they didn't succeed.Everyone paid the price and was sentenced to border guards for the crime of "usurping prisoners". After the verdict is over, they will have to sit in prison first, and they will be escorted out in October.But Zigong was even more unlucky, because Zhang Gong shot and wounded a county official, and was sentenced by the county judge as a thief to kill the county official and abandon the city.The verdict was sent to Chang'an soon, and he probably wouldn't survive this winter.
My mother ignored my resistance that day, and finally gave the order to die, and let the maid forcefully drag me back.I only found out afterwards that Zigong's escape failed again. It is said that although they escaped from the prison, they did not escape the chaqi who were arrested in the end.And it was not until a long time later that I learned that my father had played a huge role in this raid. He volunteered to the county government to be the leader of the raid. Fugitives who dare to resist will be killed immediately, and rewards will be given if they are caught.Only then did I know how much my father hated my son.Why I hate so much, maybe other fathers can understand, but I can't anyway.
My mother was greatly frightened by this, and never listened to my advice again.Within a few days, I was successfully married into the Wang family.On the wedding night, when the man couldn't wait to take off my shirt, I sadly realized that a son-in-law will always be a distant dream in my heart.I helplessly endure the oppression of this man on my body, the body is not even half happy, but Zigong took away my soul, happiness is attached to the soul, and it seems to have nothing to do with the body, unless he agrees to it one day Give me back my soul.While moving on my body, the man said vaguely: "Beauty, I have been waiting for this day. Huh...huh... I have been waiting-" This reminded me of my stomach I remember that it was said in "Rongcheng Zifang Zhongshu" that if a woman has sex in the early stages of pregnancy, it may lead to "changing children".I was a little nervous. At one moment, I was worried that Zigong’s child would conjure up, and the truth would come out, and I would be finished. At the same time, I felt sad and frustrated, thinking that since I couldn’t marry Zigong, it’s no big deal if I died.I was so contradictory in my mind, and my body instinctively avoided his attack.But he thought I was shy, so he became more energetic.This night, this scorpion raped me several times, but the consolation is that no matter what, Zigong's son is still in my stomach.well!I lived in the hometown of Confucius and Mencius since I was a child, but I was infected with the indifferent attitude of women in Sanhe and Guanzhong towards the intercourse between men and women.
Three days after the wedding, that man took me back to my parents' home to Guining.I have to admit that he was very kind to me, and he greeted me along the way, I didn't care about him emotionally, I just watched the scenery outside from the car window.Today, people are coming and going on the streets of Xiaqiu County, and the market seems to be much more lively than usual. When the car drove near the city gate, I saw many county officials biting and drinking, and all the people passing by Qiting were stopped. Drive into a pen that usually sells pigs.I saw a man with a dark complexion reluctantly defending something. Judging from the shape of his mouth opening and closing and his gestures, he probably said: "What are you doing? Why do you want me to go to the pigsty?" A clear angry voice: "Don't do anything, just go in if you are told to fuck." His voice is vivid in my ears.
Fortunately, our car was an official car, and the county officials dared not stop it. Instead, they all bowed and saluted us, saying hello to us.My husband lifted the curtain of the car and comforted them politely. He is a good man. Not many county magistrates have such a good temper. I think so.I continued to look out through the car window, and saw the crowds of people who had been driven into the pigsty stretch their necks to look up at the center of the pigsty.A stage was temporarily set up in the center, and I saw a magistrate dressed in red enter the stage imposingly, holding a scroll of bamboo slips in both hands, and began to read something solemnly to the crowd.My heart tightened, maybe I wanted to kill people, it was so lively.I often hear about the grand occasion of beheading people in the market from my servants, but I have never seen it myself.My parents didn't let me go, the reason was "a gentleman stays away from the cook", it's funny, is beheading people like a cook?But since we are a wealthy family, we can't go to the market to join in the sad excitement like ordinary people.What I was most worried about at this time was whether Zigong would be among those who were beheaded. Although I knew that Zigong’s crime was abandoning the market, it was May after all, and the vegetation was thriving. In this season, the punishment of beheading is implemented.However, I still know that my face is very ugly at this moment.
My husband first noticed my expression and hurriedly asked me how I was doing.I didn't know what to say, so I pointed to the crowd and asked, "Is the county court going to kill people today?"
His face immediately became relieved: "How, is it possible? The big man's law only cuts people in autumn and winter. What's more, if people really want to beheaded, I won't let the driver pass by this market."
"Then why are there so many people?" My heart suddenly fell, and I pointed out the car window.
He smiled, and the drawer-like mandible seems to be opening and closing with great difficulty. Maybe he doesn't feel the difficulty, but I worry about him.This surprised me, did I have a crush on him?I know I'm worried about him, right? !
"According to A Weng, yesterday in Chang'an, the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Yushi Temple jointly issued an imperial edict to arrest a fugitive, ordering all counties and villages in the world to convey it. If the common people find this, If there is any trace of the fugitive, report it to the officials immediately. The county court dare not neglect, so early in the morning, the document will be issued, and all pavilions and cities must read it to the people."
"Oh," I asked curiously, "what kind of fugitive wants to be arrested by edict, is it worth such a big fanfare?"
The husband said: "Speaking of it, I'm afraid you don't believe it. Even I am surprised. This edict, the name of the arrest is an old woman who is about 60 years old, and she is at least 30 years old. It's been years—it's like, looking for a needle in a haystack."
At this time, the voice of the county magistrate reading the imperial edict was faintly heard in my ears, and the common people began to listen with their ears upright, and the crowd of tens of thousands of people suddenly stopped, like a death scene in a dream.I felt that our car was slowly passing by the sky like leaves, and only heard a few words floating in the wind: "Za Yan asked the officials and people in the village to try to take maidservants and free slaves as wives, over fifty years old... "
After a while, I came back to reality, and I asked him: "Junfang, what happened to this runaway old woman, can you tell me in detail?"
"It's rare, you are so interested, what do I have, reasons, dissatisfaction, my beauty." His face was glowing with excitement. I haven't given him any good looks these days, so it's no wonder he Would be so flattered.
