Thank you babies! ^_^

"In order to protect him, we injured a few brothers, but fortunately, those big men saw that we were also hard stubble, grabbed some things and ran away, and finally no one died. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info I heard that when my men were fighting with the Da Ji people, Cao Da hid under the carriage, and a brother cut off the head of a Da Ji Tartar, and the head of the Tatar fell off and rolled to Cao Da's feet, and he was frightened. ”

He Guanglie shook his head helplessly: "With this guts, you still want to do this kind of profitable business?"

Cao Da was frightened this time, and rested for several days before gradually relieving himself. Although he was robbed of some things by the Daji people when he came back, he finally saved some of them, and he didn't lose money after the goods were sold, but he couldn't make as much money as he wanted.

The route from Yezhou to Donglin is dangerous, otherwise it will not make the fur of Yezhou unable to be transported, He Guanglie's people have been walking this road for several years, back and forth I don't know how many times, although not every time you will encounter the need to fight hard, but the roadblock robbery has also hit a few times, but everyone understands the truth of wealth and danger, so after getting used to it, it is also accustomed to it.

But Cao Da is the first time in his life to experience this kind of life and death, after he came back, he would dream of the picture of the human head rolling in front of him every day, the feeling of warm blood splashing on his face is still so real, Cao Da woke up from the nightmare every day, and lost weight in just a few days.

He Guanglie went to visit him and told him that his people would go to Yezhou next month so that he could recover from his injuries quickly.

Cao Da asked He Guanglie tremblingly: "Have your people ever gone this way and never come back?"

He Guanglie glanced at Cao Da strangely, as if he had asked a very stupid question: "This is natural, two brothers died last time, but our people also killed a lot of Daji Tartars and roadblockers. This is a lucrative business, and even if you know that you may lose your life, many people will rush to it every time. You happened to encounter it with bad luck this time, and you may not meet it next time. ”

Cao Da shook his head: "Maybe next time, I'll die on the road!"

He Guanglie frowned: "What? So you don't want to go in the future?"

Cao Da hesitated for a long time, and then looked at He Guanglie: "Cousin, I really can't let your people run this road for me?"

He Guanglie looked at him and said sincerely: "You should also understand when you go on a trip, this is a business with your head tied to your belt, everyone may bring more goods back every time you go, but in order to deal flexibly when you encounter the enemy, every time you can bring back things are limited, who do you think will give up the opportunity to make a fortune and fight for your life to help you bring goods?"

Cao Da said: "Cousin, it's not me who said you, you are too kind! You are their head, even if you don't come forward in this matter, they should give you the big profit!"

He Guanglie sneered when he heard this: "I heard that you can pick up a life this time thanks to the people under my command who sacrificed their lives to save you, there is a brother who blocked a knife for you, and half of his arm was almost wasted, do you know why they want to save you?"

Cao Da was stunned, he hadn't thought about this problem, he thought that He Guanglie's subordinates should protect him.

He Guanglie said coldly: "It's because they have a kind superior! If I arbitrarily exploit those people under my hands, do you think they will save you this time for the sake of my favors?"

After saying this, He Guanglie brushed his sleeves away.

Cao Da lay on the bed and watched He Guanglie's departing back, his face was red and white.

After He Guanglie left, Chunxiang didn't know where to come out, leaned over and asked, "Master, will you go to Yezhou next time?"

Cao Da was angry, and when he heard the words, he slapped Chunxiang in the face: "Are you looking forward to your grandfather's death!"

After Chunxiang was given to Cao Da by the old lady, this was the first time she was beaten, and she was so shocked that she forgot to react.

Cao Da pushed Chunxiang away irritably: "Get out! Don't be an eyesore in front of me!"

Chunxiang covered her face and cried: "Master, what did the slave and maid do wrong! Is it wrong for the slave and maid to care about you? When the old lady rewarded the slave and maid to you, she repeatedly told the slave and maid to take care of you, but the slave and maid were just worried that you would be injured like this time if you went to Yezhou again!"

When Cao Da saw Chunxiang mention the old lady, the anger on his face subsided a lot: "Okay! Don't cry! I've been in a bad mood lately, and my temper isn't very good." ”

Chunxiang was also frightened by Cao Da, wiped the tears on her face and said meekly: "It's the slave's fault that she didn't take care of her master." ”

Cao Da saw that she was obedient, so he said: "I will never go to Yezhou again no matter what! Even if I make money, I have to have a life flower." ”

Chunxiang nodded hurriedly: "Ye is right! Then when will we go back to Beijing?"

Compared with this Penglai City, Chunxiang naturally prefers the bustling capital. The most important thing is that there is an old lady in the capital, Cao Da will not easily beat her, and even Cao Da's wife does not dare to do anything to her.

Cao Da thought about it, but shook his head: "Don't go back to Beijing first." ”

Chunxiang was puzzled: "Didn't you go to Yezhou, where are we going if we don't go back to Beijing?"

Cao Da said: "If I return in vain this time, my mother-in-law will definitely take the opportunity to make trouble, and the little thing my father gave me may not be able to keep at that time." Although I won't go to Yezhou, I don't believe that I can't find any other way to make money here! After all, there is still He Guanglie's protective umbrella here!"

Chunxiang saw that Cao Da had made up her mind, and she didn't dare to say anything more.

He Guanglie didn't care about Cao Da after he taught him this lesson, he wanted to stay here to recuperate from his injuries, and He Guanglie also lived in the front yard by him, and was entertained with good food and drink.

Speaking of which, He Guanglie is also quite kind, although he asked Cao Da to go to Yezhou this time, although he listened to He Linwan's suggestion to teach Cao Da some lessons, so that he should not be so whimsical and delusional, and the good thing of empty gloves and white wolves, it did not really make him lose all his capital. It's just that he can see this cousin's personality clearly, and he doesn't want to worry about anything about him anymore.

In the past few days, Wei's appetite has always been bad, and his morning sickness has become serious again, and there happened to be nothing in the barracks, so when it was He Guanglie's turn to rest, he stayed at home with Wei's and did not go out.

At noon on this day, He Linwan was in the kitchen to check today's menu, and was instructing the cook to prepare a few refreshing dishes for Wei's, when the porter came in to report that someone in the barracks was in a hurry to see He Guanglie.

He Guanglie was afraid that something would happen in the barracks, so he went out to meet people in his regular clothes and immediately came back to change his clothes and prepare to go out. ”

He Guanglie frowned, as if he was thinking about something, and replied casually when he heard this: "Hmm." Something happened, don't eat it! ”

Before He Linwan could ask carefully, He Guanglie walked out of the courtyard quickly.

He Lin guessed that the matter was definitely not small when he saw He Guanglie in such a hurry, but although He Guanglie changed his clothes when he was leaving, he did not put on a military uniform, but it was the people in the barracks who came to report, which showed that this incident was not in the barracks, but it was related to the people in the barracks.

After thinking about it, He Linwan turned his head and instructed Chunxiao: "Go and inquire if there is anything big going on outside." ”

Chunxiao liked this kind of task the most, and left after answering briskly.

Penglai City is not big, but it is easy to inquire about anything, especially the residence of the generals in a battalion is generally not too far away. When He Linwan accompanied Wei's to lunch, Chunxiao inquired about the news.

Seeing that Chunxiao's face was pale and her expression was different, He Linwan glanced at her, Chunxiao understood, and did not report it in front of Wei.

After the two returned to the West Chamber, He Linwan asked, "What happened?"

Chunxiao's face palpitated: "Auntie, girl, someone is dead!"

He Linwan couldn't help frowning when he heard this.

Chunxiao swallowed a mouthful of saliva before Ai Ai said: "It's Qiu Xiang's father-in-law, the person named Wu Liang, he ...... He's dead. ”

He Linwan saw Chunxiao's frightened look, and knew that there was still a hidden secret, so he said softly: "Go drink some water, sit down and talk slowly." ”

Chunxiao poured herself a cup of tea and poured it down: "This morning, someone in the barracks went to Wu Liang's house to ask him for a drink, but after knocking on the door for a long time, no one came to open it...... Seeing Wu Liang dead in the house, I heard that someone had his throat cut out, making the room full of blood!"

He Linwan asked, "Only Wu Liang died, what about Qiu Xiang, and what about the others?"

Chunxiao said: "The strangest thing is this! Qiu Xiang is missing! And the rough mother-in-law of her family was sent away by Qiu Xiang the day before yesterday." I have heard some people say that Wu Liang may have been killed by Qiu Xiang, and after she killed someone, she absconded in fear of crime! Just now, the slave maid saw that the official messenger had surrounded Wu Liang's house and was looking for evidence. Girl, do you really think it's possible that Qiu Xiang killed someone? She is so delicate, she hid away from the kitchen when she killed chickens, and she fainted when she saw blood! How dare such a person kill someone with a knife?"

He Linwan frowned and didn't answer, Chunxiao kept babbling because she was scared: "But I listened to the neighbors around her, Qiu Xiang's attitude towards Wu Liang has always been bad, and she was unwilling to do laundry and cooking when she first got married, and said that she had never done these rough jobs since she was a child, and then Wu Liang found a mother-in-law who specializes in laundry and cooking." But she still ignored Wu Liangai, and never gave a smile......"

Although He Linwan didn't want Wei to know about it, but now that there was a lot of trouble outside, Wei still knew about it from other maids in the afternoon. After all, Qiu Xiang went out from their mansion, and although the Wei family had already released her deed of sale when she left, there was no way to get rid of this relationship.
