Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty

Chapter 356 The ring is gone
Not only Chongzhen, but also Liu Hongjian felt a little tired when he returned to his residence.

Walking around in the palace, An Glass and blowing up the neck tree, sweating all over, and arguing with a group of rotten scholars for a long time, no one can bear it.

"Master, the water is ready." Seeing Liu Hongjian in pajamas, lying on the side of the bed and falling asleep, Xiaobai reported aloud.

There is a large wooden barrel in the room, steaming.

"Oh, go down!" Liu Hongjian began to undress.

"The madam said that the servants should wait for the master to take a bath." Xiaobai blushed and said, she was only fourteen or five years old.

"No need, go down, oh, go and call your eldest lady." Liu Hongjian said while taking off his clothes.

This Xiaobai is also a poor girl, the family bought it from Yaren, and these maidservants who have signed contracts of prostitution are different from ordinary maidservants.

If Liu Hongjian wanted it, the maidservant would not be able to resist.

But Liu Hongjian had no interest in this kind of brat.

The maid Xiaobai blushed as if she had been pardoned.

I've gotten a little fatter in the past month, Liu Hongjian sighed, he touched the green ring on his hand, because the ring was too tight, it almost sank into his flesh.

Liu Hongjian took a lot of effort to take it off, put the ring in the sleeve of his clothes, and stepped into the big wooden barrel with his legs lifted.

The water seemed a little hot, and Liu Hongjian grinned.

"Husband, Xiuxiu came in?" Sun Xiuxiu knew that her husband was taking a bath, so she knocked on the door and whispered.

Liu Hongjian hummed, and Sun Xiuxiu quietly entered the room carrying a small wooden basin.

"I will wipe my husband's back." Sun Xiuxiu was holding a towel in her hand.

"Take off your clothes first, or you will feel uncomfortable after getting wet." After adapting to the water temperature, Liu Hongjian opened his eyes comfortably.

Seeing that Sun Xiuxiu was wearing a long coat with wide cuffs, it was not convenient for her to take a bath.

"Oh." Sun Xiuxiu knew Liu Hongjian's temper, so she didn't refute, and took off her coat with a rustle.

Liu Hongjian turned around and saw that Sun Xiuxiu was wearing light pink and plain clothes, with a pretty figure.

Women in ancient times were all proud of their husbands. Seeing their husbands like this, Sun Xiuxiu was delighted and went forward to give Liu Hongjian a gentle scrub.

Surrounded by water vapor, Liu Hongjian soaked in warm water was extremely comfortable, enjoying Sun Xiuxiu's gentle wiping, Liu Hongjian actually fell asleep.

Seeing that Liu Hongjian was so tired, Sun Xiuxiu couldn't bear to wake him up, picked up the clothes Liu Hongjian had changed, and went out quietly...

After an unknown amount of time, Liu Hongjian vaguely heard someone shouting outside the house...

"It's on fire! It's on fire!"

……

Liu Hongjian suddenly opened his eyes, shook his head, got up and got out of the tub.

The folded new clothes had already been placed beside the bed, Liu Hongjian wiped his body indiscriminately, and after getting dressed, he opened the door and went out.

There was a smell of smoke outside the house, and several servants ran to the front yard with wooden barrels.

"Li Erdan, which side is on fire?" Liu Hongjian called to a servant and asked.

"Master, a side room in the front yard is on fire. I heard that the children of Sister Li's family accidentally ignited the laundry, but the fire has been brought under control."

This Li Erdan was a bit cross-eyed, Liu Hongjian waved his hand to tell him to continue fighting the fire, while he walked towards the front yard, holding his nose.

The sky was dry, and the ear room in the front yard had been completely burnt down. A group of servants carried buckets and poured them into the burning black charcoal-like house.

A middle-aged woman knelt in front of the ear room and wept loudly. While crying, she taught a ten-year-old boy beside her.

"Master, it's not good to be a servant, it's all slaves who are not strict in discipline, please punish me!" Seeing Liu Hongjian coming to check on this woman, the woman was even more frightened.

She was originally a servant hired by the Duke's Mansion to wash clothes for the Duke's Mansion, but the child was too naughty, and she had just left for a while before the child caused a catastrophe.

"Kneel down to the master quickly, kowtow, kowtow quickly!" The woman twisted the little boy's ears, beating and scolding at the same time.

Although the side room is small, this is the Duke's mansion. If the Duke blames them and asks them to pay, how can their family afford it?

It was a mistake, the woman couldn't care about anything else, seeing that Liu Hongjian didn't say anything, so she beat the child with a ruthless hand.

Wow - the child was beaten and cried loudly.

"Okay, okay, it's not a big deal, everyone get up!" Liu Hongjian himself had experienced hard times, and knew the difficulties of these servants.

"Please punish me, Elder Master, otherwise this old servant will have no face to work in the house!" The woman knew that the Duke of the State was kind, but it was precisely because of this that she felt even more guilty.

"Then let's fine him for two months. Be careful in the future, the child can't be beaten and scolded all the time." Liu Hongjian turned around and told Steward Niu, and told the woman not to blame herself too much.

"Master, your python suit is also inside!" Sun Xiuxiu ran over from the inner courtyard and said hurriedly.

Python clothes, this is His Majesty's favor, only courtiers who have made great achievements in the court and are extremely loved by His Majesty can be bestowed with python clothes.

This reward, where is it not kept as a treasure, and it is not willing to wear it unless it is a very formal occasion.

But now, the python suit bestowed by His Majesty was actually burned by his servants. If His Majesty knows about this, and if it is blamed...

Li Shi, who also heard Sun Xiuxiu's voice, rolled her eyes and passed out...

"Mother! Mother! Wake up—" The little boy also knew that he had caused a catastrophe, and when he saw his mother lying down again, he panicked.

For them, burning down the house was already a catastrophe, but now they learned that they even burned down the python suit bestowed by His Majesty!

This has exceeded the limit of their ability to bear. They are in awe of the imperial power and think that they have committed a murder!
"Isn't it just a python suit? I don't care, Steward Niu, let someone help you down to rest!" Liu Hongjian sighed.

People in high positions sometimes cannot understand the hardships of the people at the bottom.

Only those who have suffered and tired know their helplessness. Liu Hongjian was once an orphan, and he also made mistakes and was punished by the headmaster. He knew the helplessness of these servants.

Moreover, he really didn't care much about the python suit.

In fact, he still has one python suit, two unicorn suits, and three flying fish suits...

He doesn't pay too much attention to dressing, but he thinks that the dark python suit is relatively low-key...

It's just one piece of clothing, and I will go to the emperor to ask for two pieces later, I believe Uncle Chongzhen will not be stingy.

Looking at the entire Ming Dynasty, it is estimated that only Liu Hongjian dared to make such wild speculations and dare to take it so seriously.

"Look at you, don't catch a cold, hurry back to the house!" Seeing that Sun Xiuxiu's forehead was covered with sweat, Liu Hongjian said slightly angrily.

"But husband..." Sun Xiuxiu was still very worried.

"For my husband, it's fine, so it's fine, for my husband..." Liu Hongjian was talking, and suddenly felt that something was missing from his finger.

ring!Where's Lao Tzu's ring?Liu Hongjian was shocked!

"Xiuxiu, what did you just say? What burned out was the python suit that my husband wore just before taking a bath?" Liu Hongjian stared at the boss, holding Sun Xiuxiu's shoulders with both hands.

"Yes...it's that one." Sun Xiuxiu had never seen Liu Hongjian's expression like this.

"Damn it! What happened!" Liu Hongjian slapped his thigh. He just remembered that he thought the ring was too tight before taking a bath, so he took it off and put it in the sleeve of the pipa.

Burned... burned! ! !Lao Tzu's book, Lao Tzu's 7.62 bullet... and Lao Tzu's AKM... Lao Tzu's drawing!
Ah——Liu Hongjian suddenly felt that something was wrong!

"Get out of the way, master!" Seeing several servants clearing up the ruins, Liu Hongjian suddenly yelled and rushed over.

The servants were startled, and hurriedly obeyed the order and stepped aside.

Liu Hongjian squatted in the ruins of the ear room, scratching the ground mixed with water, dust, and sundries with both hands.

"Husband, what are you doing? What is missing?" Seeing her husband's face full of panic, Sun Xiuxiu was also in a hurry.

"Ring! A green ring! My ring!" Although Liu Hongjian was anxious, he couldn't bear to see his wife sad.

"I'm here to help the master find it!" Niu Dazhuan scratched his head, and threw a burnt black rafter outside, and the rest of the servants hurriedly cleaned it up elsewhere.

Liu Hongjian and Niu Dazhuai, one master and one servant, searched back and forth in the small room. The rest of the servants did not dare to act without Liu Hongjian's order.

Everyone stood quietly. They didn't know why their master cared so much about this ring, and they didn't even know that this ring even related to the future of the entire Ming Dynasty.

The ruins were full of mud, Niu Dabangchui cleaned up the large debris, and together with Liu Hongjian rummaged through the house.

Half a quarter of an hour passed, and Liu Hongjian still couldn't find him. He became more and more anxious, and his face was also black and white with black and gray.

A quarter of an hour has passed...

Liu Hongjian was a little desperate. It seemed that the ring must have been burnt. He didn't know what material the ring was made of, but it seemed that it was not very resistant to burning.

Liu Hongjian simply sat down on the ground, Ma De, what will happen from now on?
The drawings are gone! AKM bullets are gone!The phone is gone!There are also photos of his family and Chongzhen's family in it!

Only Niu Big Bangchui still didn't give up. He lay on the ground, his clothes were messed up, and he searched earnestly with both hands.

Suddenly his hand stopped moving, as if he found something like a ring.

Niu Dazhuai held the little thing and wiped it on his clothes repeatedly, and found that it was a purple ring, which looked a bit like a ring.

But the ring my master was looking for was green, obviously this one wasn't.

But he hesitated.

"Master, I found a purple ring...Look." Niu Dabangchui was not very surprised when he saw his master's dejected expression.

Liu Hongjian was still immersed in the grief of the ring being damaged, but subconsciously took the purple ring that Niu Dabangchui had mentioned.

Um?Liu Hongjian stared immediately?

Although the color of the ring is wrong, he clearly has a familiar feeling!

It felt like milk and water, and he knew that this was his ring.

But why did the color change?What about the contents?

Liu Hongjian concentrated his mind and probed in...
