Chapter 149: I Can't Afford to Go Back
"Thank you." Su Yiqing didn't doubt that this Jing Gang was right, lowered her head and thought for a long time, then raised her head and said, "Since the strong man has the heart to make up for it, let the strong man trouble more, send me to Qiongzhou."
"Qiongzhou is thousands of miles away, and that place is close to the border, it's very chaotic, girl, where are you going to do it?" Jing Gang asked with some surprise.
"It's because the place is chaotic and the household registration management is relatively loose, so I went somewhere." Su Yiqing said softly, "In other places, if a person comes in, he will be asked, but in a place like Qiongzhou, everyone is not surprised." ”
"You often live in a deep mansion compound, and you don't know the way of the world at all, and it is not easy for a girl's family to survive anywhere, especially a beautiful girl like you." Jing Gang somewhat understood what Su Yiqing meant.
Su Yiqing smiled faintly: "No matter how difficult it is, I have to give it a try, don't you know, from the moment I was taken out of the stable by you, I can't go back, except for being incognito, I can only cut off such a road by myself, even if I only have a moment in the stable alive, it will be a shame for the family, but I am a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, and I am not willing to die."
In this way, Jing Gang thought of the issue of the woman's name, yes, this woman was held hostage by them all night, and even rode with him, the name has been lost, and it is naturally difficult to explain it when she goes back.
"I'm sorry." Jing Gang's face was full of chagrin, and he wanted to punch himself hard.
"You don't have to feel guilty, I guess you have already investigated the situation of the county lord's mansion before you hijacked me, so this is a relief for me." Su Yiqing exhaled a long breath and said, "This family affair of mine is a misfortune, if it weren't for the marriage of the Holy Decree, I couldn't get along and couldn't escape, I would have run away a long time ago." Now don't be embarrassed, the world is big, isn't there a place for me, even if it is still unfortunate in the end, I have enjoyed so many years of glorious and rich life, it is enough. ”
Jing Gang suddenly had nothing to say.
The big family was another world he didn't understand, but he knew it. The kind of life that everyone yearns for is not so easy, as far as the work they take over from the palace of Shan Cheng County, the life of these nobles is not much safer than that of these knives and blood.
After discussing, the two disguised themselves as brother and sister and went on the road together.
Leave the stable with a bloody storm.
Jing Gang is a person in the rivers and lakes, and he is good at camouflage, although he is dressed up as a brother and sister, but after a little makeup, they are ten years older than before. Such words are less likely to attract attention.
At the beginning, there was no too strict inspection on the road, but slowly the inventory became stricter again, and many people in the rivers and lakes came in.
After Jing Gang inquired, he learned that the prince of the stable had paid a lot of money for Yufeng and offered a reward to find a woman. said that she was a runaway concubine, and she wanted to be captured alive.
The bounty is as high as 10,000 taels of silver, and many people can't help but talk about it. And gearing up.
At this time, Jing Gang stopped and asked Su Yiqing to change her disguise, no longer pretending to be brother and sister, but pretending to be mother and son, and did not continue to move forward, but stayed in an inn.
"Let's eat some fruit, I'm sorry, we're going to stop here for a while, and now the road is more rigorously tracked." Jing Gang handed a pack of handbags to Su Yiqing.
Su Yiqing smiled faintly: "It doesn't matter. All I have now is time, and I don't have anything to do but you. If you have something urgent, just go ahead and do your business first. ”
"What's the urgency with people like us?" Jing Gang also smiled, "One person is full of food and the whole family is not hungry, the so-called urgent matter is also the matter of some brothers, in the final analysis, it is also a human favor, I don't like to owe others, but now I owe you, and I can't help anything else, so I can only send you to Qiongzhou safely, otherwise I will not be at ease for the rest of my life." ”
Su Yiqing smiled: "Don't be so demanding of yourself, sometimes it's the injustice of the world, it's not your fault, don't take everything on yourself, meet in Pingshui, if it weren't for you, I might have died, you don't owe me."
Jing Gang didn't defend himself, to this point, it's all a joke to say that he has any principles not to hurt the innocent, but as a man, he has his own insistence.
This is an ordinary official post, not big or small, but Rao is so, and many people come to search every day, including officers and soldiers and people from the rivers and lakes.
Fortunately, Jing Gang was careful and knew that the wind was tight, so he stopped, otherwise a man and a woman walking on the road, even if they were disguised, they could deceive some careless officers and soldiers, but they could not deceive the people in the rivers and lakes who were also good at disguise, they stopped, and they did not hurry to recuperate in the inn, but no one was suspicious.
Most people thought that the sooner they would leave, the better, and they were still living in the official post, so others couldn't think of it.
I thought that the more I went to the back, the fewer people who searched it, and everyone would go to the same place to collect it, but I didn't want to think that after more than half a month, there were more and more people, and most of them were from the rivers and lakes this time.
The reason is very simple, even Yufeng's bounty has reached 50,000 taels.
"It seems that your husband is not ruthless and unrighteous to you." After Jing Gang heard everyone's discussion downstairs, he went upstairs and whispered to Su Yiqing.
"Maybe he still has a conscience in some respects." Su Yiqing did not deny it, after all, in their entire married life, even Yufeng had no place to be sorry for her except for accepting beautiful women, and even if he was angry about the Kang family's affairs at the beginning, he just spoke a little louder, this is ancient, not modern, and there can be no modern standards to measure a man.
"He only said that it was a concubine who escaped, and he didn't say that it was the princess, I think this is also to protect you, maybe you can think about it and go back, after all, life outside is not so good, especially now, there is chaos everywhere." Jing Gang subconsciously still hopes that Su Yiqing can return to his previous life, so that he will not feel so guilty, after these few days of getting along, he also learned that Su Yiqing has no relatives in Qiongzhou, and she has never been far away in her life, but she is well-read, and she has more knowledge than other boudoir daughters, and it is too dangerous for her to go outside.
Su Yiqing shook her head: "It's not that a person who says he doesn't mind can not mind, this matter is too big, I was held hostage out of the city, and the soldiers guarding the gate know that if they say that they are fleeing from the concubine, they will deceive those irrelevant people, and they can't hide it from other people at all, and now even Yufeng has spent a lot of money to find it, and if he can't find it, it will be another thing to say that he is affectionate and righteous, but it is another thing to really find it, I have been missing for so long, it is difficult to prove my innocence at all, and people are terrible, when the rumors are spreading, everyone will say that he is wearing a green hat, if the impact is too great, He also had no choice. He was innocent in the matter itself, so why should he bear this misfortune? And my mother's family, raising such a daughter who lost her innocence and didn't apologize for her sins, they also have to bear a lot of rumors, so it's best for me to disappear forever. ”
Husband and wife, she has never done anything for Lian Yufeng, and she doesn't expect him to be able to leave at this time, even if he can, her marriage with him is full of helplessness, she doesn't want to add another kindness to this helpless and suffocating marriage,
"If it's really a relative, you won't think about it so much, as long as you can live safely." Jing Gang didn't quite understand Su Yiqing's concerns, her relatives didn't care, why did she think so much?
"Do you have any relatives?" Su Yiqing asked softly.
"I didn't jump out of a stone, I was raised by my sister since I was a child, but before I could get out, my sister died of illness, of course, now I have no relatives." Jing Gang said, a little sad, "I'm just thinking, if my sister encounters misfortune, as long as she lives, no matter what she becomes, I will not dislike her, no matter when, I hope she lives and can give me a chance to be honored." ”
Su Yiqing sighed: "That's because you only have one relative, whether it is a person or a thing, it is not so precious, at least not indispensable, you only have one sister, you can naturally think like that, you have a few more younger brothers and sisters, and when your sister encounters misfortune, it will drag down the whole family, so you don't think so much, there is no filial son in front of the bed for a long time, maybe in the first few days, you will be glad that your relatives will not die, but as time goes by, this immortal relative has dragged down the whole family and put the whole family in a desperate situation. Of course, you are a person with a strong character, and you may be able to disappear and remain the same, but can the rest of your relatives think like that? Even if you can, as an older sister, can you live happily if you drag the whole family down to such a point? Rather than this, it is better to let them be sad for a while, and the long pain is better than the short pain. ”
Jing Gang is a person in the rivers and lakes, and he has always thought that as a brother, he must stick a knife in both sides, and if brothers are in difficulty, they must help each other, and he never thought about what Su Yiqing said, he was stunned for a moment, and then muttered: "Being a man should be to watch and help each other, which is also a kind of responsibility."
"Do everything according to your ability." Su Yiqing said softly, "Just like this time, you sat down for the sake of brotherly righteousness...... Although you people in the rivers and lakes have the way to do things, if you kill local tyrants and bullies, even if you rob the rich and help the poor, you can still barely take a righteousness, but you know that your brother kills people for money, and you help your brother for righteousness, is this right?"
"You don't understand our brother's feelings at all, the so-called people can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes, and what you owe to others must be repaid." Jing Gang was a little annoyed.
"I don't understand, don't look at me as just a woman, in fact, I once owed others a big favor, and I agreed to pay it back, but I said at the beginning that it must not violate morality, didn't you think about it when you owed others?" Su Yiqing was a little disdainful, "Could it be that when others helped you, it was also against morality?" Not doing evil is the basic principle of being a human being, right?"
ps:
Turning point, I hope the future plot will not disappoint everyone too much.
