Chapter 105 The Differences between Humans and Animals (Part )

Su Liuyue raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "They were forcibly conscripted by the previous dynasty, or something unexpected happened."

Although he had seen many of Hui Su Liuyue's predictions, Feng Dali still couldn't help smacking his lips, "As expected of Su Xiaolangjun! When Niu Xingbang grew up, he left the circus and returned to Xinjing.

After he returned to Xinjing, because the incident had faded, he had no problem finding work. He worked as a servant in several wealthy families. He was diligent, good-looking, and could please people. It was said that the wives of the families he worked for treated him very well. Not only were they willing to promote him, they also often gave him rewards. In this way, he quickly saved up a sum of money and bought a yard on the edge of the outer city. "

Su Liuyue's eyes darkened slightly.

This guy probably started out by hanging out among those ladies, practicing his skills in pleasing women.

"When he was nineteen, he got married. At that time, he worked for the Kang family, which was... well, the former Kang Shaoyin's family. It was said that he even became a manager, and his wife was the personal maid of the then Madam of the Kang family.

But people who are familiar with him say that he is actually a wicked man. He behaves like a dog in front of his wife, but secretly he often visits brothels. Su Xiaolangjun was right about this!

Although his wife was just a maid, she was the personal maid of Mrs. Kang after all. In terms of background, she was comparable to the wives of some minor officials. How could she bear to see her husband often seeking pleasure outside? Moreover, it was said that Niu Xingbang had a lot of strange habits. He would be affectionate with his wife one breath, and change his face the next, yelling at her, punching and kicking her, not to mention his almost pathological cleanliness. His wife couldn't stand him anymore and divorced him resolutely.

It was after that that Niu Xingbang started committing crimes..."

Su Liuyue suddenly realized, and said, "His wife's determination to divorce him became the fuse of everything. He blamed everything on Miss Shen San, thinking that it was because of her that his mind became so twisted that he couldn't even manage his relationship with his wife, so...he wanted revenge."

Feng Dali snorted, "This guy only blames others and never reflects on himself. His wife must have been unlucky to follow him!
Didn't the previous dynasty start to fall into chaos not long after that? The Kang family tried their best to please the Lu family, who were their in-laws. Young Master Su should also know that the Lu family was the actual ruler at the end of the early period.

At that time, the army of the previous dynasty was losing ground and there was a serious shortage of people in the army. The court began to conscript able-bodied men everywhere. As the manager of the Kang family, Niu Xingbang would not have been arrested so early.

Unexpectedly, in order to please the Lu family, the Kang family drove all their young and middle-aged servants to join the army, saying that they had received so many favors from the court and they had to give something back.

At that time, several young men of the Kang family also put on armor and went to the battlefield. Since the master family was in such a state, Niu Xingbang had no choice but to go. However, in the end, those young men of the Kang family did not come back, but he was lucky enough to come back safely. "

So, Niu Xingbang suddenly disappeared that year because he went to join the army.

Feng Dali couldn't help but ask curiously, "Young Master Su, how did you guess that Niu Xingbang might have been forcibly conscripted?"

Su Liuyue smiled faintly and said, "Didn't we speculate before that Niu Xingbang wore heavy makeup every day to cover up the scars or birthmarks on his face? But when Fourth Miss Shen recalled Niu Xingbang that day, she didn't mention any scars or birthmarks on his face. Even if Fourth Miss Shen was still young at the time, it is impossible for her to forget such a strong personal appearance. She didn't say it, so it is possible that Niu Xingbang's face was clean when he was a child.

Of course, his scar may have appeared after he left Pingxi Marquis Mansion, or it may have suddenly disappeared a year ago.

If it was left after he disappeared a year ago, it means that he must have experienced something very dangerous the year he disappeared, which left such an indelible scar on his face. "

The most dangerous place is the battlefield.

Feng Dali could not help but nod his head desperately and said, "That's right, it's almost the same as what Su Xiaolang guessed. Although Niu Xingbang returned safely from the battlefield, he still suffered all the dangers. It is said that he was slashed in the face by the enemy, the wound was so deep that the bone was visible, and he almost died.

That is why, after finally returning to the capital, he was so eager to seek revenge. He had experienced life and death, and felt that if he did not take revenge soon, he would not know when he would have another chance.

Lu Lu suddenly interrupted, "By the way, I haven't had time to ask Young Master Su, how did you know that Miss Shen San had already thought of escaping from the Lotus Appreciation Banquet?"

If Su Xiaolangjun had not noticed Miss Shen San's thoughts and asked them to keep a close eye on her, they would not have been able to arrive in time to rescue Miss Shen San.

"It's very simple. At that time, Miss Shen San's clothes and jewelry were not very gorgeous. Compared with other girls who went to the lotus viewing banquet, she was considered simple. Miss Shen Si said that her sister dressed like this because she was engaged and didn't want her fiancé Wei Erlang to misunderstand. But Miss Shen San has always been dismissive of Wei Erlang. I don't think she would spend this much time on Wei Erlang.

Plus, when I passed by her, I smelled a very seductive fragrance on her.

Some animals emit a special smell when they are courting in order to attract the attention of the opposite sex. The same is true for humans. Many people use various nice-smelling aromas, in fact, with the intention of attracting the attention of others.

Isn't Miss Shen's behavior completely contradictory to her plain dress? This shows that she has someone she wants to attract attention to, but that person is not at the Lotus Appreciation Banquet. She deliberately dresses simply to make it easier for her to leave the Lotus Appreciation Banquet. "

Router couldn't help but open his mouth.

It was the first time he saw someone compare humans to animals!
But...it does sound like that.

He couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed and said, "I am really ashamed. At that time, I also observed Miss Shen San closely, but I didn't observe anything. We still have a lot to learn from Mr. Su."

Su Liuyue raised her lips and said, "We are all companions, so let's not say these polite words. By the way, do you know that His Highness will go to Jingzhao Prefecture tomorrow?"

She planned to send some pastries over tomorrow, and if Zhou Yunke was there, she could send them to him as well.

Even though she was a little upset because he threw away the pastries she sent him last time, he specifically explained it to her later, and he was her superior after all, so he still had to show his appreciation!

Who cares whether he eats or not, as long as she does her job!

Lu Lu shook his head and said, "His Highness is always elusive in Jingzhao Prefecture. We don't know if he will come tomorrow. Besides, His Highness has been very busy recently."

Feng Dali suddenly came over and said, "Come to think of it, what His Highness has been busy with recently is also related to the previous case! I heard that His Highness petitioned the court, hoping to open up the household registration system and encourage the people to set up female households, so that women who have no men to take charge of the family due to the war can be allocated land and support themselves, without having to... do things like selling their bodies."

Su Liuyue was slightly stunned.

In fact, both Dayan and Daqing were allowed to set up female households, but the court's attitude has always been neither supportive nor encouraging. After all, the labor force of female households is far lower than that of male households. Not to mention that it is difficult to collect taxes, the country often has to introduce some tax reduction or exemption policies. There is no way. Women are not as physically strong as men, and their efficiency in doing farm work is naturally lower. You can't force people to death.

In the late period of the previous dynasty, when the country was extremely short of money, women were oppressed and forced to marry, thus gathering everyone's strength together.

Now that Daqing had just been established not long ago, all parts of the country were rebuilding and in great need of labor, the imperial court would certainly not encourage the establishment of female households. Even if someone applied to the government, the application would be delayed or directly rejected.

After the founding of the Daqing Republic, various places redistributed the fields previously occupied by the powerful. Any common people who returned to their hometowns could be allocated new land. However, because the government did not support the establishment of female households, many women could not get any land even if they returned to their hometowns.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many desperate prostitutes in the city.

Before, when she saw the murdered prostitutes, it was impossible for her not to feel pity in her heart. However, apart from finding out the murderers who killed them, she couldn't do more for them.

What she didn't expect was that Zhou Yunke actually took the initiative to encourage the establishment of female households.

Her heart couldn't help but skip a beat, and a warm current flowed out silently from a secret place deep in her heart.
