Chapter 132 Interesting Street

"Just follow us." Zhao Fu took his group out in a mighty way. The shops are often on the streets. These people also like calligraphy, paintings and antiques. After a century of turmoil, there are many treasures that have fallen among the people. Besides, in order to find Emperor Jianwen, Emperor Chengzu sent Zheng He to the West. The things in the capital also came from all over the world, and there were all kinds of gems and spices. Even if the northern Mongols had been harassing each other a few years ago, it would not hinder good things from foreign lands.

"There are not many such jewelry now! If you don't buy it, I won't have to worry about selling it." The shop's guy said, "I heard that Guangdong is in chaos, and the Yao people in Guangxi have all attacked several county towns... It's not convenient to do business. The Tatar area in the north is far away and it's not easy to walk, so the cost is high. How can this thing be without raising the price?"

"Isn't this a profiteer?" Zhao Fu said, "Young Master, see if these people should be sent to the official position?"

"I'm a businessman? I'm a businessman. Don't think you can bully a commoner like me. There are still some reasonable places in the capital." The shopkeeper said.

"Is this reasonable?" Zhao Fu said, "Don't be so arrogant, I have fought a war..."

"June..." A man came out of it, "My man is a novice and ignorant, don't blame him..."

It seems that he is the boss. Han Yong came over and grabbed Zhao Fu: "Brother Zhao, we are here to hang out, don't scare people..."

Zhao Fu made a face. He was not young anymore, so it was really funny. Zhong Ying, who was following behind, couldn't help laughing.

Just when he returned to the street, Zhong Ying suddenly put away his smile: "Mr....Young Master...Emperor...Emperor..."

Jianshen saw her talking and tied knots, and then looked at the direction where her finger pointed. Isn’t that his father? He was surrounded by two people, both dressed in men’s clothes. Isn’t this the old eunuch Niu Yu and Zhen'er?

"Let's go!" Zhong Ying said, "You can't let the master see..."

"What are you going to go..." Zhao Fu said, "I turn a blind eye... You can go to the teahouse to have a teahouse first, and they will go there. The street is so big... I can't stand them looking for the young master. This teahouse is good and you can see the entire street at a glance."

Seeing Shen go upstairs, his eyes still stayed on the three of them, and they were also wandering around, but the father was always in front of him. Han Yong did not go upstairs. He seemed to be waiting for the father below. He was an official, so he naturally had something to do.

"Stop reading, Han Yong is just serious." Zhao Fu said, "I'll find you a song singer." He said a few words to the store owner, and sure enough, a girl about six or seven years old came, followed by a blind old man playing the violin and sang a song in a tender voice.

"This child is too young... so pitiful." Jianshen said in surprise.

"The picture is cute..." Zhao Fu said, "I heard that the palace buys such a little palace maid every year. If the prince likes it, he can keep her."

"No..." Jianshen said, "It is not a good thing to ask her to leave her family. It is better to give her some reward and give her parents..."

"Thank you, young master!" The six or seven-year-old girl knelt down, and the blind old man stretched out his hand. He happily put the silver in his arms.

"My parents are dead, you can buy me!" the little girl said, "I can do a lot of things." But no one answered.

"Daughter...Daughter...I won't sell you..." A man in a military uniform pushed the door open and came in.

The child heard someone say that and quickly shouted, "Dad...I'm here..." and then rushed towards the person.

"What's going on? It's all messy, let me know clearly." Zhao Fu asked, "I'm a good poster!"

"I'm sorry, my name is Shao Lin, I'm a soldier who sent grain from the Hangzhou grain ship. I brought my daughter to the capital, but I was abducted... I've been looking for it for two days!" Halfway through, I heard a squeak, and the blind old man opened his eyes wide and slipped away.

"Dad, he is not blind..." the girl said, "Catch him and sue the official..."

Zhao Fu said, "You guys wait, I'll catch him back..." He went downstairs in two or three steps. The girl's father also chased him out.

Seeing that the little girl in front of her was very panicked, Zhong Ying hugged her in her arms and took out a string of beads from her body: "Your father will come back after catching the bad guy, little sister, stop crying, sister will give you something..."

As expected, everything happened in this street market. Seeing the deep penetration, the blind man turned out to be fake and ran quite fast, but he couldn't stand the blockage and chase after him.

One of the people rushed to the middle of the road. Seeing Shen was shocked. It turned out to be his father, and he stood in front of the blind man. He was so arrogant. He posed in a position, and suddenly the "blind man" fell down.

"Who...who...who asked you to do it?" Jianshen shouted. Zhao Fu was already following behind and grabbed the "blind man". Shao Lin slapped the blind man in the face.

The girl was anxious: "Sister, I'm going to save Uncle Zhang... He took me in these two days..."

"What's wrong? He's a kidnapper..." Zhong Ying said, "What I hate the most is a kidnapper."

"He... he is not... my father wants to sell me... I escaped that day and met Uncle Zhang, who is selling arts. My mother is going to give birth to a younger brother, and the family can't afford to raise me... My father said he wants to sell me."

"What's going on?" I was so surprised,"

Zhong Ying ran down with the little girl, leaving only Shen who stayed upstairs, so he didn't dare to go out.

The "blind man" finally fell into the hands of the yamen runners. Where is the father? It turned out that he had also taken action. He shook his slightly fat body and a large group of people followed. It seemed that the father was very happy in this folk excitement. Jianshen returned to his seat, picked up the tea bowl, and was about to drink it, but there was an explosion outside. Seeing Shen's tea cup fall to the ground... and then he leaned out. The outside was in a mess, and the crowd was blown away. Several people were lying on the ground.

"Father..." Seeing Shen panic, he couldn't control it anymore, so he wanted to go downstairs to find his father.

On the first floor, Wang Zhongying, the servant who was with him, was holding the little girl of the Shao family. The child was so scared that his face turned pale.

"Don't go out!" Zhong Ying stood in front of him, "It's dangerous outside, young master, you have to listen to me..."

"Listen to you?" Jianshen said, "Why?"

"Auntie wants me to protect you..." Zhong Ying said.

"Nonsense, little girl, don't get in the way..." Seeing Shen was surprised. What qualifications does this girl who had just entered the palace have to protect herself? Sure enough, she couldn't stop herself at all. She could only hold the little girl and stamp her feet behind her.

There were panicked people everywhere outside, and the explosion was clear. There was a truck and a circle of people lying beside the cart.

"Catch people..." The yamen runners were not slow either.

Jianshen saw his father. He was fine, and the people around him were fine, but the blind man disappeared, and no one in the yamen runners took care of the blind man. Niu Yu's face looked very ugly, but the father seemed to have nothing to do.

"How can this kind of gunpowder saltpeter be passed through the downtown area?" Zhu Qizhen was very dissatisfied.

"Master, let's go back." Niu Yu said. Zhu Qizhen looked at Wan Zhen'er beside her. She walked towards the car, and there was still an unextinguished fire in the car.

"The gunpowder from Shenji Camp." Zhen'er said, "Someone stole gunpowder. Master, I'll go and have a look."

"It's not our business... don't cause trouble." Niu Yu said, "Menda will investigate this matter. The Jinyiwei is coming soon, let's go."

Then when it comes to the Jinyiwei, this area is surrounded.

"I can't leave..." Jianshen said, "What should we do?"

"Look..." Zhu Qizhen said, "I really want to see what they handled."

After walking past several Jinyiwei, he pretended to look at it and said, "Is there a dead person?"

The merchandise owner came up and said, "I sold some firecrackers. I didn't know why I exploded, but I injured some passers-by. I am willing to pay compensation. Look..."

"Then let's call the Ministry of Justice to deal with it... This is not our responsibility."

"The top shot... it's not... it's gunpowder..." said a person who was injured by the explosion, "He lied to me, I was disfigured, how could he compensate?"

Gunpowder is very powerful. It is completely different from firecrackers.

"Don't talk nonsense," said the merchandise owner. "Where should I go to find gunpowder? What do I want gunpowder?"

"Take them away..." said the leading Jinyiwei.

The mercenary owner ran away... the group of people followed him and chased him...

The street seemed to have returned to its original state. The person who was injured was the coachman, who was helped into the clinic next to him.

"Don't meddle in other people's business," said Zhu Qizhen, "You all go back with me. Today is quite interesting."
