"Can you take the liberty of asking," Zhiruo felt that there were some things that still had to be clarified before making arrangements in advance, "Is Mrs. Zhou visiting relatives and friends in Kunping this time or passing by......?" What I mean is that in case no one from your mansion can escape, do you have any relatives or friends here? Do you need me to let someone help you contact you? Or, if you have business dealings with the Shunfeng Dart Bureau, you can ask them to arrange someone to escort your grandparents and grandchildren back to Beijing. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Of course, we all hope that the people of your house can be safe. ”

The fact that the subordinates of the Dingguo Mansion were able to escort the ancestors and grandchildren out of the water building so quickly shows their ability and loyalty, and they naturally hope that they can be safe and sound. But be prepared, her own schedule is tight, she can't stay too much and delay, and she can't let Mrs. Zhou's grandchildren go unattended.

"I came here to Kaiping Temple to make a vow, 20 years ago my mother's brother suffered, I and my mother passed by here, had prayed in Kaiping Temple to make a wish, last year my nephew's family found the capital to recognize the ancestors and return to the ancestors, I only knew that my brother has an heir, and it is considered to have fulfilled his wish, so I rushed over to repay the wish in the spring. Old Madam Zhou didn't have too many doubts, she only felt that Qi Mubai was kind and thoughtful, and, inexplicably, this Qi Gongzi just gave her a familiar feeling, which made her quickly feel at ease.

Can't you let your children and grandchildren do it for you? It should only be part of the reason, right? Of course, when we meet in Pingshui, it is normal for Mrs. Zhou to have reservations. Anyway, Zhiruo just wanted to know if their ancestors and grandchildren had relatives and friends who could take refuge and help them here, and they were not half interested in listening to the Zhou family's privacy, and Mrs. Zhou's answer had already given the answer.

Now they can only wait for the situation in the inn, if the Zhou family can escape, she only needs to prepare enough for them to return to Beijing to entangle, if no one escapes, she has to let Luo Ying contact the Shunfeng Dart Bureau.

"Young Master Qi, have we met before?" Old Madam Zhou couldn't help but ask, the contemplative Qi Mubai made her feel more familiar, "Or, who do you know from our Zhou family, have you been to the Dingguo Mansion?"

Knowing that she was stunned, what did Mrs. Zhou suspect? Also, she was so enthusiastic in her life, no wonder people doubted it.

"No," Zhiruo replied, "I didn't know anyone from the Zhou family before I went down, and naturally I hadn't been to the Dingguo Mansion, but I have admired the Dingguo Grandfather for a long time." Although he is a businessman, he also has the feelings of galloping on the battlefield, and he has great respect and admiration for the soldiers who guard the frontier and defend the country. Her words expressed her respect for the Duke of Dingguo, thus explaining the reason why Qi Mubai was "enthusiastic" to Mrs. Zhou's ancestors and grandchildren, and she would not be too flattering, because Qi Mubai's respect was for all soldiers, not only for the Duke of Dingguo.

Old Madam Zhou smiled: "The old woman thinks that Qi Gongzi is very familiar, but she can't remember where she has seen it, so she took the liberty of asking, thinking if it would be because she is old and has a vague memory." But she didn't expect her question to make Qi Gongzi misunderstand, thinking that she suspected that their master and servant "have nothing to do, and they are either traitors or thieves". She really didn't have any doubts about it, human eyes can't deceive people, this child's eyes are clear, so she can't be suspicious at all. What's more, she also believes in her instincts, has lived for more than 50 years, and has gone through all kinds of twists and turns, which depends on people's skills.

Knowing the time when he talked to Mrs. Zhou, Xiao Zhou Yan couldn't help but doze off, and little by little, Meng learned that Ruo was funny and distressed.

"There is a bed in the room," Zhiruo said as she looked at Mrs. Zhou, "I will take Brother Yan to sleep inside, and if you are sleepy, please lean back here." ”

Old Madam Zhou smiled and nodded: "Okay, it's very comfortable here, in fact, Brother Yan can also sleep." Qi Mubai's carriage looked inconspicuous from the outside, but it was really luxurious and comfortable inside, and the chairs and the walls of the carriage against which they were back were covered with cotton, which was soft. Qi Mubai deliberately let her sit on the widest chair in the middle, obviously wanting her to lean on and rest, comparable to a chaise longituna.

"It's okay," Zhiruo knew that Mrs. Zhou was an extremely sensible and measured elder, not a cheeky person like the Ji family and Mrs. Qiu, "The inside is wider, and it is not easy for children to fall off." ”

As soon as Zhiruo put Brother Yan on the bed and covered the thin quilt, he heard the sound of gongs outside. Then Luo Ying's voice came in: "Master, the soldiers of the official mansion are here, but the black-clothed people on the other side of the inn seem to have withdrawn, and they are running fast, I heard that a few people have also run out, so I asked Luoshuang to go over to find out the situation." ”

How many people escaped? Zhiruo raised his eyebrows, those men in black should have been sure of all the targets that killed or captured them alive, so they didn't kill them all.

Old Madam Zhou's face also swelled with excitement, and she didn't know if she had escaped?

"Old lady, wait a minute," Zhiruo said with relief, "Luoshuang will definitely pay special attention to the people in your mansion, and there will be news soon." "I'm afraid that the grandmothers and maids who came out with Mrs. Zhou are all henchmen and used to it, if they are gone, even if they are subordinates, the old lady will definitely be sad for a long time.

Old Madam Zhou nodded, took off the Buddhist bead bracelet on her left wrist and recited the scriptures softly, I don't know whether to pray for her people or for the innocent people in the Xiyue Inn. If you know, Mrs. Zhou is a devout Buddhist, especially believing in Guanyin Bodhisattva. On Mrs. Zhou's fiftieth birthday, her mother, Lord Qianxin, took her to the Dingguo Mansion to pay homage to her birthday, and the birthday gift was the string of Buddhist beads in the old lady's hand.

Zhiruo's eyes were slightly wet......

I don't know if Mrs. Zhou's pious Buddha heart moved the heavens, and when the frost came back, she brought back three people, two mothers-in-law, and a guard with an arrow wound on his foot. When the three of them saw Mrs. Zhou, they knelt on the ground and cried, and then kowtowed to Zhiruo's master and servant to thank him.

"One is the grandmother who is waiting for Mrs. Zhou, the other is the nurse of Young Master Zhou, and the other is the leader of the guard, most of the people who can survive are the old people and children, this guard is the only young man who escaped alive, and he also has two arrow wounds on his body. Luoshuang explained in Zhiruo's ear, "I heard that those black-clothed masked men shot and injured and captured the Holy Maiden of the Heavenly Medicine Gang, by the way, master, do you know who I saw just now?"

Luoshuang said as she showed Zhiruo a hairpin in her hand.

"Who?, who can you meet here, so surprised?" Zhiruo glanced at her, and took the jet-black wooden hairpin, ebony, and the style was very simple.

It's just that when he turned it over, Zhiruo's eyes widened and he was stunned. (To be continued.) )
