Chapter 236: Self-inflicted
"What did you say?"
Zheng Wei was surprised that he even forgot his name, and stared at Yuan Botong in disbelief.
Yuan Botong's face was full of shame, "I didn't expect that Chen Scar was so powerful, more than 20 guards couldn't catch him and let him escape." Speaking of this, he smiled again: "However, now we also know who was the culprit who kidnapped Sanniang and Shiniang in the first place, it turned out to be the Manchu family, which is funny, and now the Manchu family has suffered from eating hungry fruits, and we don't need to do it at all." ā
Zheng Wei already knew the culprit, so he didn't care who the culprit was, "Brother Botong, that person is an outlaw, he can do anything, especially if he has seen Sanniang and Shiniang, we have to do our best to catch him." ā
"It's just a person who works for others and licks blood from the knife, what is there to worry about. Yuan Botong raised his head and saw that Zheng Wei was really worried, so he said: "Don't worry, I have already submitted the information to the Yushitai, and there will be a national wanted warrant in the near future, and he will definitely have nowhere to hide when the time comes." ā
When Zheng Wei heard this, his heart was still uneasy, he originally killed the rest of the group, and then let Chen Scar escape, thinking that Chen Scar would definitely go to the Manjia to settle accounts for the sake of righteousness, he just asked that person to scare Manqin and the Manjia family, so he told Yuan Botong to send someone to keep an eye on Chen Scar, and not let such a person be left behind.
I don't want to, Chen Scar's skills will be so good, he actually let him escape under his nose.
Thinking about it, Zheng Wei shuddered.
At this moment, I remembered that Yuan Botong seemed to talk to him about the situation of the whole family. He only paid attention to Chen Scar's escape, and didn't pay attention to anything else, so he asked, "You just said that the whole family eats their own hungry fruits. What's wrong?"
"When the escort I sent arrived on the ship, there were only Manniang and two servants left in the cabin, and the others were all dead, each of them with a few stabs, and Manjia Shiro-kun was also dead, with two stabs on his body. If it weren't for my guards, the man and the two servants would not have escaped. ā
Zheng Wei's heart was shocked, and his eyes suddenly widened. Holding the edge of the desk with his hand, the green tendons on the back of his hand protruded, jumping and jumping, and he said for a long time: "Say so." The full lady is fateful. ā
"Yes. Yuan Botong's eyes narrowed slightly. suddenly turned his head to look at Zheng Wei, "But Anu, the culprit of this matter is the lady of the Manchu family, I want to know if this is a love debt caused by you." ā
Zheng Wei did not deny it, but said lightly: "Whether it is or not, she Aya died at the hands of that person, and more than 20 people died up and down." Find someone to kidnap Sanniang and Shiniang, and everything that should be repaid has been repaid. In this matter, can Brother Berton stop pursuing it further?"
Hearing Zheng Wei say this, Yuan Botong also guessed, "Okay, I won't pursue the Manniangzi anymore, it's just the suppression of the Manchu family's shops, I won't let go, and Anu shouldn't stop this." ā
"Whatever you want, you know, I have never interfered in this," Zheng Wei finished speaking, and added: "Besides, Shi Niang was also a victim at the beginning. ā
Yuan Botong nodded, and put the matter down.
After talking to Zheng Wei for a while, he got up to say goodbye.
After sending Yuan Botong out, Zheng Wei locked himself in the study for a whole afternoon without saying a word.
It wasn't until it got dark that the door was opened.
Liangjing, who was guarding the door, hurriedly entered the house, lit the oil lamp in the house, and only looked at a scroll of portraits on the stilt table, and Liangjing was about to go forward to put it away, but heard Zheng Wei say: "Put it there, don't move." ā
Liangjing answered, took two steps back, and looked at Gorou and walked to the stilt desk again, staring straight at the portrait, although it was a little far away, Liangjing only glanced at it, but he still recognized it, this portrait is the portrait of the full lady framed by Gorou himself a while ago.
Looking up, he looked at the look on Gorou's face very solemnly.
Liangjing remembered that since Yuan Dalang left, Wulang turned around and came back, the look on his face was like this, he turned his head and entered the study in a sullen voice, and he didn't let him and Sandu come in, and there was no movement all afternoon, at this time, Liangjing wanted to speak, but looking at Gorou, it seemed that the whole person was immersed in that painting, and it was not easy to disturb, let alone know what to say.
In this way, after a long while, Liangjing couldn't help but open his mouth, "Xiaolang, are you going to Shi Niang's yard for dinner tonight?"
"No, I won't. Zheng Wei finally raised his head from the painting and glanced at Liangjing, "Send someone to Xixi's courtyard to talk to Xixi, and also, go and invite Ah Weng over." ā
Liang Jing replied and asked, "Where is Xiaolang going to set up dinner?"
"I'm not hungry, so I don't have to set it for dinner. ā
"How can this be ......?"
"Go down. Before Liangjing finished speaking, Zheng Wei waved his hand towards Liangjing, with a little impatience in his eyes.
Liangjing had to hurriedly withdraw.
When he was about to go out, he saw Zheng Wei roll up the painting with his hands.
After going out, Liangjing hurriedly asked Wen Weng to come, and then he turned around and went to Shi Niang's yard.
Wen Weng came over soon, much faster than expected, the truth is that Sandu went to invite Wen Weng, and on the way he met Wen Weng who was going to come to the main courtyard to see Goro.
"Wulang is looking for the old man to come over, but what's the matter?" As soon as Wen Weng came in, he saw that Zheng Wei's spirit was a little decadent, and he couldn't help but put aside the matter of returning the gift, and asked Zheng Wei first.
"Shiro-kun of the Manchu family was killed on the way back to Fuchun, and tomorrow Ah Weng will rush to Fuchun's house to offer condolences on my behalf. ā
Wen Weng heard the news, his eyes widened in surprise, he had seen Manjia Shilangjun a few days ago, a good person was suddenly gone, and his heart was suddenly a little empty, "Well, the old man took such a trip for Xiaolang, but on the side of the full lady, does Xiaolang have anything to explain?"
Zheng Wei propped his head in his hand and said lightly, "No." ā
I heard Wen Weng ask again, "I don't know how Shiro-kun was killed?"
"Leave this Ah Weng alone. Zheng Wei waved his hand, and he didn't mention the matter of letting Chen Scar out, so Wen Weng and Fu Zhubo didn't know.
However, at this moment, Wen Weng almost immediately sensed that something was wrong with Zheng Wei, it is said that Zheng Wei should be more concerned about this matter, after all, it is about Manqin's father, and then look at Zheng Wei's solemn expression, frowning slightly, Zheng Wei is rare time to frown, Wen Weng's heart suddenly beat a drum, there are doubts, and he wants to ask, but he just called Xiaolang.
I heard Zheng Wei say with a little impatience: "Ah Weng only goes to condolence Shiro-kun on my behalf, as for other things, don't worry about it." ā
Wen Weng had no choice but to respond, presumably Zheng Wei didn't want to say anything more at this time.
"Ah Weng has anything else to do, if not, go down first. ā
Wen Weng sighed, got up and handed a box to Zheng Wei, "Xiaolang, this is the newspaper from all over the world collected today. ā
Zheng Wei glanced at it and said lightly: "Put it here first, I'll take a look when I have time." ā
Then the old man went back first. Wen Weng said goodbye and withdrew.
In this compartment, Zheng Wei saw Wen Weng leave, leaned back, and lay on the table behind him, staring straight at the roof, without opening the small wooden box, and Zheng Sui's side, when Wen Weng sent the servant to report the palace, he couldn't wait to open the box and look at the newspaper inside.
Since Huan Yu went to the front line in Xuzhou, Zheng Sui has become more and more interested in these Di newspapers from all over the world.
On the Xuzhou front, Huan Yu took back Nanliang County in the past, which was also a reason, Dayan sent General Wei Chicheng to move his troops eastward to attack Yantong's Great Wei regime, and Gao Jing also took advantage of this to besiege Yantong, causing the air defense of Nanliang County to be empty.
The war between Yan Tong and Gao Jing has never stopped, and Dayan's dispatch of troops at this time can be said to have dealt a fatal blow to Yan Tong, putting the already exhausted Yan Tong regime in a precarious situation.
After putting down the mansion in his hand, Da Yan's target is not only Yan Tong's Great Wei territory, but also the Great Han territory of the Guanqiu clan in the north.
Fortunately, Dayan is only committed to the operation of the north, and now Dayan has not attacked Dachu in the south.
A while ago, after receiving a letter from home, the eldest brother Zheng Wei went to Pingcheng again.
Siniang Zheng Fan and sister-in-law are pregnant with their second child.
It's just that Aunt Zu's body seems to be a little bad.
After Zheng Sui put down the mansion in his hand, he took the honey water handed by the maidservant, took a sip, frowned slightly, put down the amber glass cup, and said without even raising his head: "Caifu, this honey water is too sweet today." ā
As soon as the words fell, Chenfeng was the first to laugh, "Sister Caifu can't hear this." ā
Since Cai Fu asked Zheng Sui to send it to Huan Yu, Zheng Sui had to shout the wrong two or three times almost every day, and Chen Feng had to joke every time.
"I forgot about jƬ again. Zheng Sui raised his head humbly and handed the cup to Zhongnan next to him.
For a long time, I have been accustomed to the storage of Caifu, and Zheng Sui is not used to it these days, a day or two ago, Huan Yu has not left Jiankang, Xin Yi also built yƬ, she wants to come back, Zheng Sui thought, sent out, then can come back, not to mention, she gave Cai Fu to Huan Yu, on the one hand, to let Cai Fu take care of Huan Yu's life, and more importantly, I also hope to know the situation of Huan Yu in Xuzhou from time to time.
Although she didn't make it clear to Cai Fu about the latter point, since Cai Fu could guess her thoughts, she could understand a thing or two.
She sent Cai Fu over, Huan Yu accepted it gladly, and didn't even ask for the reason, but it was the fifth brother's side, which was opposed by the fifth brother, saying that she was messing around, if she really wanted to send Cai Fu out, she would give Huan Yu the deed of Cai Fu.
Zheng Sui didn't agree, but she was frightened in her heart, she was worried that the fifth brother would guess her thoughts, if she couldn't say a reasonable reason, she just insisted, according to the fifth brother's cleverness, she would definitely be able to guess, fortunately, later, Huan Yu didn't know how to persuade the fifth brother, and the fifth brother didn't ask about it again.
