Chapter 602: The Dove Occupies the Magpie's Nest
Li Qianqian didn't want to be involved in such a thing at all, so he glanced at Chunjiang, Chunjiang understood, and said to the round face, "The eldest lady is going back to do her filial piety this time, don't talk about this kind of thing, it has nothing to do with us anyway." ”
The steward thought about it and understood, they went out, and they met someone who could help them, and there were many of them, so they really couldn't interfere, and after they understood, they didn't say more, and went back to greet Shang Chengtao and his party.
Although it was not very obvious, Shang Chengtao still felt it, and after the round-faced steward went to talk back to his master, his attitude towards them changed slightly.
I don't know what his master told him?
After thinking about it, the sky was getting brighter and the rain was gradually stopping, Mother Ye came over with the soft chicken porridge, "Sect Master, hurry up and eat!"
"Good. "The shredded chicken porridge is boiled softly, the golden chicken soup is snow-white rice flowers, and the green onions are sprinkled on it, which smells fragrant.
This fragrance not only made Li Qianqian's index finger move, but also made Shang Chengtao and others salivate, but Shang Chengtao was embarrassed to ask, but the attendant beside him felt sorry for his young castle master, so he dared to ask, and the round-faced steward replied to him with a smile, "That's our eldest lady's mother's specialty, and I feel sorry for our eldest lady's hard work every day, so I specially boiled it for her to eat." ”
Miss? It turns out that the master of these people is a woman? I don't know that this lady is the daughter of that family, and she goes out with such a big pomp! There are also guards who are from military backgrounds.
The attendant immediately reported to Shang Chengtao when he went back, and Shang Chengtao also had the same question.
At this time, the leading middle-aged man and the military advisor who were guarding the low forest rode around on horseback.
"No suspicious traces were found. The people who scattered out to inspect reported one after another, and the middle-aged man gritted his teeth and shook his head, "Did they really escape?"
"Flee and flee. "The military advisor was drenched in the rain all night, and his cough became more and more severe. "How much have we done for the mother and son of the master of Gao Zhuang, but have they given money?" asked the military advisor to say that this kind of business should not have been taken over a long time ago, but he was just a military advisor, and he was the one who came up with the idea, and he was not the one who took the idea.
The middle-aged man smiled bitterly, of course he knew that the business of the owner of Gao Zhuang was a money-losing business at all, but what could he do? Their son Mo Lou has now changed the owner, and the landlord has also been replaced, the landlord is unwilling, and the people below are agitated, asking the landlord to simply come out and do it himself, if this is the case, the network is very important.
Even if the mother and son of the high village only asked them to do things without giving money, but thinking of the connections behind them, he would never dare to offend their mother and son.
The military advisor also knew about the situation, but he couldn't help but vomit quickly.
"Speaking of which, Mrs. Gao is too greedy, Mr. Gao is not the child of Mr. Gao at all, he is just a drag oil bottle brought by Mrs. Gao Zhuang, why inherit Gaojiazhuang, besides, the former owner still has children!
"Isn't it because the previous owner of Gao Zhuang still has children alive, so he asked us to go and destroy it?" The military advisor was still talking, and the middle-aged man sighed when he heard it, and they all said that marrying a wife and marrying a virtuous man, but marrying a wife like Mrs. Gao Zhuang really led a wolf into the house!
I heard that when the old owner of the village was young, he was a shrewd person, how could he marry a woman like Mrs. Gao as a stepfamily?
"It's not our business. He opened his mouth to stop the military advisor and continued, if he could, he really didn't want to provoke Yuntianbao, but who told Yuntianbao to protect the two children of the Gao family!
"Then you say, what should I do today?"
The middle-aged man pondered for a long time before he said, "Let's go, let's go to Xu Xin!" to see if he catches up with anyone, if not, it means that God does not approve of us doing this business." ”
"How do you explain when you go back?" the military advisor raised his eyebrows and asked, and there was another wild cough, and the middle-aged man frowned.
"I don't think you can put it off any longer. ”
"My illness is small, how are you going to explain it to the landlord?" Although there is a new landlord, they are the people brought out by the old landlord, and they only recognize him.
The middle-aged man frowned, "How can you explain it?" We all chased after us in the rain, who told them to be lucky, and escaped without a trace while it was raining. Can you blame us?"
As he spoke, he summoned people back, glanced at the dwarf woods, and rode his horse around the dwarf woods, the military advisor reached out and grabbed him at this time, the corners of his mouth seemed to be about to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, the middle-aged man looked at him suspiciously, and the military advisor shook his head with a wry smile.
The middle-aged man took the lead and left, but the military advisor looked back at the low forest before leaving, he felt that this forest was strange, and he always felt that there seemed to be many people staring at him in this forest.
Shake your head to shake the thought away, and then ride your horse to catch up with the middle-aged man.
The captain of the guard team in the forest watched them go away, and made sure that they were far away, so he asked people to report to Li Qianqian.
Li Qianqian received the news and asked, "Liu Yi hasn't come back yet?"
"Not yet!" As he was talking, someone saw Liu Yi coming back and hurriedly shouted to him to come over.
Liu Yi watched the middle-aged man and the military advisor leave, and then quietly slipped back, and heard Li Qianqian looking for him and hurriedly came over.
Shang Chengtao They were in the shed, and they were a little surprised when they saw Liu Yi's figure passing by, they were all people who knew martial arts, of course, they could see that Liu Yi's skills were extraordinary, but the guards were already soldiers, and the attendants around them were actually martial arts people, and their skills were not inferior to their young castle masters, who is this eldest lady?
Shang Chengtao: They are even more curious about the identity of the eldest lady.
Liu Yi took advantage of the night to hide beside the middle-aged people, listened to the conversations of the middle-aged people, and listened to the complaints and conversations of the people they brought clearly.
Knowing that the person who chased and killed Shang Cheng Tao and them was actually Zi Molou's killer, Li Qianqian was only slightly surprised, and Lan Tang and the others were a little stunned, wasn't Zi Molou in Dongqi? How could their people go to Nanchu to kill people? And then so coincidentally, they were encountered.
"I heard that Zi Molou has changed owners, are these people's owners new or old owners?"
"The old landlord, and listen to them, this business confiscated money, and it seems that several businesses have been done in a row, and the money has been confiscated. ”
Li Qianqian frowned when he heard this, "Then when they leave, will they not do the business of Cloud Sky Castle?"
"It sounds like this, there is a military advisor next to the middle-aged man who is in the lead, and it seems that he is not in good health, and the situation seems to be more serious after a night of rain, and the little one feels that the leader values the person's body. ”
Anyway, it's a business that doesn't make money, people run away, it's important to take care of the health of the people around them first, and it's still his military advisor who is sick, and he has to rely on that person to help him come up with ideas, if this person is gone, the leader will be in trouble.
"Be careful, then, lest they come to us without finding the right master. ”
Liu Yi promised, "Okay! You've been busy all night, and you're tired, go change your clothes, do you still have shredded chicken porridge from Mother Ye's place? If you do, give Liu Yi a bowl, probably not much left, just enough for you to warm your stomach, warm your stomach and then change your clothes, and then go to breakfast, and then you can rest! Anyway, it's a rush for a while, and you sleep well in the car." ”
"Yes. Liu Yi responded with a smile, he knew that the sect leader and the great sect leader had different temperaments, but it felt very good to have such a master!
Chunshou took him to find Mother Ye, who was sitting in the carriage, saw them coming, and when she learned the intention, she smiled and said, "There is only a small bowl left, just enough for you to warm your stomach." ”
The Sect Master said the same. Liu Yi took the bowl with a smile, and sure enough, there was only a small bowl.
"This is what the sect leader told you before, saying that if you go out to run errands, you will definitely be hungry when you come back. Mother Ye knew that he must have been drenched in the rain when he went out to run errands, so this bowl of shredded chicken porridge added ginger soup to it, although it was only a small bowl, but as soon as he entered it, he tasted the spicy ginger soup.
Liu Yi raised his hand and wiped his forehead, he was sweating hot, and returned the porridge bowl to Mother Ye, who asked Chunshou to give him a thick blanket, "Wrap it, even cover your head together, so as not to catch a cold when the wind blows in the car." ”
Liu Yi's eyes were red for Ye's mother's carefulness and thoughtfulness, he has no mother since he was a child, is this what it feels like to have a mother caring?
Chunshou sent him out of the car, turned around and said to Ye's mother, "You made people cry!"
"Nonsense, it was rained, it has nothing to do with me. Mother Ye raised her hand and poked the corner of Chunshou's forehead, beckoning the others to pack up their things, and they were going to hurry in a while.
Shang Chengtao and they didn't go with them, for fear of causing trouble for them, of course the round-faced steward wouldn't tell them that Zi Molou and those people had already left, and seeing that they were interested, he asked Li Qianqian to leave some of the things in the shed for them.
Anyway, when we get to the ground, there is a place where you can buy new ones.
Second Master Li caught a cold when he got out of the car at night, and after taking the pills, he fell asleep, and there was a smoke cage in the car, so it was very warm, and the little guys saw that he was sleeping soundly, so they didn't make any noise about him and let him sleep.
As for Ji Yaoshen, because she came to Xiaotian, she had backache and lower abdominal pain, and she almost didn't feel so much pain that she rolled around, so after asking Lan Tang to see it, she prescribed pills to her, and she fell asleep after using the medicine.
Therefore, Shang Chengtao and they didn't know that they existed from beginning to end, of course, in the eyes of the guards of the General's Mansion, their master was only the eldest lady, these two, although one was the general's second brother, but they had already separated, and the relationship between the general and him was not very good, so they naturally did not regard him as the master.
As for Ji Yaoshen, this is the daughter of the clan, how dare their generals get too close to her, of course they will not treat her as their master.
It's just that when he saw the obviously much more gorgeous carriage, Shang Chengtao looked at it for a long time and asked his confidant, "Wasn't their eldest lady this carriage just now?"
"No, that's the one for their eldest lady's car. The henchman pointed to the carriage in front, in the convoy, there were obviously three cars in which the master was ridden, one looked once gorgeous, but it was some years old, and it was well maintained, and the people who came in and out were all small servants, and it seemed that the master in it should be a man.
And the car they are talking about is full of maids and servants, and it should be a woman in it, so I don't know what the relationship is with this eldest lady?
And the carriage where the round-faced steward went, the appearance is simple and unpretentious, and it is the most inconspicuous appearance among the three carriages, but Shang Chengtao and others have good eyesight, and they can see at a glance that the appearance of this carriage is not ornamented, but the materials used in the carriage are the best among the three carriages, and they are the best maintained.
"Who are you talking about this eldest lady?"
The henchmen shook their heads, how would they know.
Shang Chengtao was thinking that if he could get in touch with this eldest lady, he might be of a lot of help to them Yuntianbao.
Li Qianqian didn't expect that Shang Chengtao and the others could see something from the carriage of the convoy, and they were not far from the low woods, and the captain of the guard found that Zi Molou's pedestrian was parked not far in front.
"What are they doing there?" asked Li Qianqian.
"I don't know, do you want to send scouts?"
"No, I don't. Li Qianqian thought for a while and explained to him, "If you tell you to go down, you should not know their identity." ”
The captain of the guard agreed, turned and left.
After a while, the convoy passed by the leading middle-aged man, and the guards and attendants looked at them curiously, and found a person lying on the ground with incomplete limbs, and they were all startled.
The captain of the guard thought for a moment, and immediately stepped forward to ask, "Hello guys, dare to ask what's wrong?"
The middle-aged man in the lead looked up at him, shook his head with a wry smile, "We don't know, when we came over, we found our scattered companions, but they were all ......"
The captain of the guard narrowed his eyes slightly, these people died under the claws of the wolf, the scars were still very fresh, they should have only been dead for a long time, this place is not far from the low woods, although it is raining heavily, but if there is a wolf howl, they should not be unable to hear it, and looking at the expressions of these people, they are surprised and not frightened, when they are attacked, they are only surprised, not afraid.
Could it not be a wolf that hurt them? So what could it be? Is it a human being? Or is it someone close to them? When death comes, they don't panic because they don't believe that the other party will kill them?
Although the captain of the guard saw the clue, he didn't intend to say it, he believed that the middle-aged man in the lead could see it.
Of course, the middle-aged man in the lead could see it, and the military advisor could see it clearly, among these people who died tragically, there was no handsome man who led people to pursue the Shang Shaobao Lord last night, could it be him? These people who died not only did not have him, but also did not have his henchmen.
It's just that why did you pick at this time? or ...... If someone else came along, on a rainy night, when they were on a mission, it was impossible to think of it, and there was only one explanation, and that was their own hands.
The captain of the guard saw that their faces were not quite right, and he didn't say much, but only asked, "Brother, do you need our help to report to the officer?"
This is the reaction of ordinary passers-by, the military advisor looked at the captain of the guard for a long time, and then looked at the convoy behind him, and it could be seen that it was a long way out, so I don't know where they came?
"No need, look at their injuries, they should have been attacked by wild wolves. ”
Let the government send someone to exterminate the wolves, otherwise it would not be good if they attacked passers-by in a wild way. ”
That's right, but they've already decided that these people were killed by their own people, and if they report to the official and let them see something, it's not good!
The middle-aged man in the lead cheered up and said to the captain of the guard, "It's better not to drive the big brothers, turn back to us, we will take them to report to the official." ”
The captain of the guard thought for a moment before agreeing sympathetically, after all, they are the bitter masters! The bitter masters have said that they will report to the officials themselves, and it is naturally good that they can do less when they are out of the house.
