Chapter 044: Catch it right

A flash of disdain flashed across the Yi woman's face, and she knew that no one could 'refuse' Anayi's request. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

This woman, a pair of children were restrained, and she dared to hesitate, hum, she really didn't cry when she saw the coffin.

The woman naturally saw the look on the woman's face, and she hated it in her heart, pinched her palm, and said in a low voice: "I can do that thing." But how can I believe that your master will not 'cross the river and tear down the bridge'? ”

The woman was a little annoyed, what kind of master and slave, she was just Anayi's subordinate, not a slave of the Zhu family or the Ma family.

But I heard her say in a stiff tone: "Don't worry, we Miao people are not like you Han people, and what you say must count." ”

The woman sneered, "People's hearts are unpredictable, your master can even calculate an innocent child, and he is obviously not a pure person." How can I believe the promises made by such people? ”

The woman frowned, looked around cautiously, and asked in a low voice, "What do you really want?" ”

The woman stared into the woman's eyes and said seriously, "Give me a token that can prove the identity of your masterβ€”"

Before she could finish her words, the woman's face had changed, "What do you want to do with the token?" Do you want to find out about this and take Anayi to court? ”

The woman looked the woman up and down suspiciously, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that this person was not bad and kind.

After thinking about it, the woman reminded again: "Don't you want the lives of your children?" Don't forget, whether they live or die, or whether life and death are better or worse, it all depends on Anayi's words. If you dare to have other thoughts, wait and collect the bodies of your children. ”

The woman endured her anger, clasped her hands tightly in front of her, and let the Yi woman say cruel words.

Finally, when she finished speaking, the woman said coldly: "I am not like you and the master behind you, not so vicious, and I will never watch my children being killed." ”

The woman did not speak again, but looked at the woman fixedly, as if weighing the truth of her words.

The woman didn't urge her, and said lightly: "Either give a token, I will cooperate with you, and then hello, I'll be good, everyone; Either I will die with the children, but I will never be satisfied, and although I am stupid, I will not make a loss-making deal. ”

The woman's dark and thin face was full of struggle, and after a long time, she nodded heavily, and took out a walnut-sized six-petal flower silver medal from the placket, which was carved with a simple pattern, which looked different from the silver jewelry that was popular on the market at that time.

The woman reluctantly rubbed the silver medal, "This is a special token for Anayi, whether it is in Shuixi or Wusa, as long as you take out this brand, the nobles will recognize it." ”

The woman didn't speak, but looked at her quietly.

The woman gritted her teeth and threw the silver medal into the woman's arms, "Alright, the thing is for you, remember what you said." ”

The woman nodded, "Don't worry." ”

The woman looked left and right, and said again and again: "Remember, I put all the tung oil in the kitchen at the beginning of the evening, and the firewood under the wall is also soaked in oil, don't be mistaken." ”

"Hmm. I know. The woman put away the silver medal.

The woman always felt unsteady, but she couldn't stay in the back office for too long, Liu Hu was still guarding the back door, in case he noticed it and ruined the whole plan, it would be too bad.

Before leaving, the woman threw away a cruel word, "Anayi's Gu, no one can understand it, if you dare to give birth to other thoughts, not to mention your children, even your husband, parents and family will not have a good result!" ”

So saying, the woman hurried out.

The woman looked at her back, stunned for a moment, and then left quietly.

The Yi woman walked out of the back office quickly, met Li Hu at the door, and was really interrogated by Liu Hu, "Why have you been there for so long?" Isn't it just a gift? It took two quarters of an hour? ”

The woman hurriedly said a lot of good things with the smiling face, and brought Qi Yuming to give her a guarantee, which made Liu Hu let her go.

After leaving Houya Street, the woman did not go directly to the shops on East Street, but circled around the three main streets and more than a dozen small alleys twice, and then went to the shops after making sure that no one was following.

After reviewing the events of the day in detail, the woman said with some concern: "That woman, something is wrong. I'm worried, is there some accident? ”

Instead of doubting it, Zhu Shi breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "I won't tell you, the more Duan is like this, the more relieved I am." ”

These days, the Zhu family ordered someone to check the details of the Duan family and found that this woman was a little interesting.

The Duan family is smart, knowledgeable, courageous, and very good at doing things, but after a few months of hard work, he became Gu Jialuo's 'best friend', and he is quite decent in the back office, and his only weakness is his husband and children.

A person like the Duan clan will never be easily bluffed, even if he sees his own children fall into the Gu, he will never trust the instructions of others.

Smart people, even if they are blackmailed, will find ways to put forward conditions to ensure their own rights and interests.

The woman listened to Zhu's analysis and nodded slowly, "Listening to what you say, there is some truth. The implication is that he is still suspicious of Duan.

Zhu's smile remained unchanged, but there was a faint dislike in his heart.

This black thin woman is not her person, but a secret agent of the Annan Palace, and this time she came over with two tasks:

One is to help spy on intelligence, and the Zhu family doesn't want to expose himself in advance, so the people who are sprinkled on the surface are basically fresh faces.

Second, it also demonstrates the sincerity of the cooperation between the Annan royal government.

Therefore, in a sense, the thin black woman is not a subordinate of the Zhu family, at most she is an envoy.

But what kind of person is the Zhu family, she has been held by people since she was a child, even if the princess and princess of the palace see her, they will be polite.

Now that he has been despised by the subordinates of the partner's family, it is strange that the Zhu family can be happy.

However, because of the Annan Mansion behind the woman, Zhu still suppressed the annoyance and said softly: "Besides, the lives of her children are still in my hands." Gu Jialuo didn't have so much kindness to the Duan family, so she could give up her own flesh and blood to help her. ”

Everyone is a mother, and for the sake of their children, they can give up their lives, let alone an outsider.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ You're right, I'm thinking too much, so please don't mind. The woman was silent for a moment, and was finally persuaded by Zhu.

Zhu's smile was sincere, and he persuaded him with rare kindness: "It's nothing, you are also for our plan." ”

At the mention of the 'plan', the woman rose again and discussed the details with Zhu.

Zhu pretended to ask casually: "By the way, have you found the manpower?" Zhan Azhuo's side, I asked people to check, she did get separated from her subordinates last night, and ran to a deserted empty house for a night. ”

The woman's eyes flashed, and she replied: "It's arranged, they are all dead soldiers with raw faces, even if the second girl of the Zhan family has a side mind, the dead soldiers will stop her." ”

There was a little murderous aura in his words, on the surface he was talking about Ah Zhuo, but in fact, he had the meaning of beating the Zhu family and the Ma family - things have developed to the point in front of them, if the Ma family pushes the people of the palace to the top of the cylinder, but they are looking for an opportunity to withdraw, but they can't.

If you fail, you will die together!

The Zhu family moved his body unnaturally, smiled wryly, and said: "That's good, that's good, the palace is the most thorough, otherwise, our Ma family and Zhu family will not follow the palace and assist the prince to conspire with great things......"

The purpose of the beating has been achieved, and the woman is very satisfied, "That's right, we just want to assist the prince to achieve great things, and when it is done, the Ma family, the Zhu family and other meritorious ministers, the palace will never be disadvantaged." ”

Zhu laughed dryly.

The woman held back her smile and grabbed Zhu to continue discussing the matter.

Unconsciously, the atmosphere in the room changed, and the status of the Zhu family and the woman's views was also vaguely different.

Zhu didn't have the heart to care about this, she repeated the plan for the evening several times to make sure that there was nothing missing, and then led twenty sturdy men in black wide clothes and wide pants back to Ma's house.

At noon, a rough envoy of the back office came to deliver food to Zhanmeng and others with a food box.

Zhanmeng was pouting his buttocks and squinting one eye to observe the situation outside: the troublemakers had already walked away, and only twenty or thirty people were left sitting on the steps weakly, some sleeping with their eyes closed, some fanning the wind with broken hats, leaning crookedly, and completely losing the posture of 'desperate'.

Seeing that the mother-in-law came to deliver the meal, the wilted Zhanmeng's eyes rolled and he had an idea.

After calling the brothers to the gate, several people sat together, with a food box in the middle.

opened the food box, brought out all the food inside, and the mother-in-law went back.

Zhanmeng greeted everyone: "Come on, it's been a busy morning, everyone is hungry, let's have a good time today, and we can also taste the food of the capital." ”

Duan Mao and Zhan Meng have a tacit understanding, neither of them need to discuss, seeing Zhan Meng like this, Duan Mao guessed a few points, and actively cooperated: "Yes, yes, I have long heard that the widow raises a good cook, and the same thing can be burned with a different taste, let's try it today." ”

Several officials were already so hungry that their hearts were close to their backs, and when they smelled the fragrance of the food, their saliva flowed out, and they didn't need to be greeted by Zhanmeng at all, they picked up their chopsticks, picked up the rice bowl, and ate in a big gulp.

Zhanmeng Duan Mao didn't say much more, and joined the ranks of grabbing food together.

Several people are rough people, and there is not much attention to eating, either this chopsticks hit the plate, or the bar chirps, and more are admiring while eating, "It's delicious, it's so delicious." ”

Through a door, inside eating and drinking, so uncomfortable, outside is hungry, drooling and dripping.

But the hateful scent kept wafting out of the crack in the door and drilling into people's noses, so that the only twenty or so people could no longer sit still.

When Zhanmeng finished eating and picked his teeth in satisfaction, all the people outside ran away.

"It's worthy of Amungo, and his brain is good." Several officials gave a thumbs up.

Duan Mao and Yourong asked again: "Everyone is gone, do you want to open the door?" ”

Zhanmeng shook his head, "It's better to keep it closed." It's hot at this time, and it's a meal, and it's inevitable that people will run away. But in the afternoonβ€”"

The rest of the words were not spoken, but several people understood.

Later, according to Zhanmeng's arrangement, several people were divided into two shifts and took turns to lean on the shade of the wall and sleep.

The sun traveled all the way west, dyeing most of the sky red, and before long, night slowly fell.

Liu Hu hurriedly came to the front office, explained a few words to Zhanmeng, and arranged for them to continue to stay in the county office.

Zhanmeng had already guessed it, so he would squeeze time to rest at noon.

At this time, there was a clear order, Zhanmeng did not hesitate, and arranged a few people neatly, and then asked people to send a message to the family.

Strictly speaking, he is not an errand officer of the county government, his father used to be an errand boy in the county government, and then there was an accident, and the officials took pity on him and begged Ma Zhongtai to let the child run errands and do chores in the county office, so as to earn some hard-earned money.

Amu took a few copper coins given by Zhanmeng into his arms, and ran out of the county office neatly.

When he turned Yaqian Street and entered a small alley, Amu was stopped.

"Amungo said that there is something in the county office, and he has to be on an errand at night, so let me go to my home to deliver a letter!" Seeing that it was not an outsider who stopped him, it was the former head catcher Xu Si, and replied obediently.

"What's the matter? Didn't you say that the troublemakers were all scattered? Xu Si asked.

Amu thought for a while, lowered his voice, and said, "Fourth brother, let me tell you, don't tell others." I heard that it was Liu, E, and the surname Liu was frightened by the events of the day, and was worried that those people would come to make trouble at night, so they deliberately mobilized all the people who could be used. ”

Xu Si asked a few more questions, and then let Amu over.

Then, he deliberately walked through Yaqian Street, stood in front of the closed door and listened to the movement, and then headed towards Ma's house.

Ma Zhongtai and Zhu are very cautious, even at the last moment, they do not forget to explore the truth and truth.

Before dinner, Ma Zhongtai arranged several batches of eyeliner to send back news one after another, including the former official who was openly probing, the errand who stayed in the yamen secretly ventilated the news, and the secret report sent by the 'secret agent' in the backyard.

After a few clicks of the news were put together, the two of them studied it repeatedly to make sure that there was no problem, and then the Zhu family handed over the twenty elites to Ah Zhuo according to the plan.

In the middle of the night, the whole town gradually fell asleep, and the streets were empty and silent.

Ah Zhuo, dressed in black clothes and pants, holding a scimitar in his hand, led twenty men to walk quickly towards Houya Street.

They walked fast, but their steps were so light that they made little noise.

Walking to the back door of the county office, Ah Zhuo and the others stopped, divided into two teams, one left and one right, standing on both sides of the back door, they leaned forward, holding weapons in their hands, highly concentrated, waiting for the signal to act.

In the backyard, in the darkness, a slender figure flashed out of the small courtyard and went straight to the kitchen.

And not far behind her, a pair of eyes were watching her closely.

After a while, there was a faint light in the kitchen, presumably a candle flame.

The figure came out of the kitchen again, as if she was holding something in her hand, and from a distance, I only saw her bending over, circling around the kitchen, firewood room, etc., and pouring something as she walked.

In the next few hours, I saw the figure constantly coming in and out of the kitchen, and there was a faint pungent smell in the air.

The owner of those eyes sniffled, well, it was the best tung oil.

Then, the figure walked out of the kitchen with the candle in his hand and poured it on the floor.

Rumble~

A sudden burst of fire burst out of the ground, conspicuous in the darkness of the night.

Boom, boom~

A fire lit up all around the kitchen, and soon the fire spread.

The peeping man saw that the kitchen was caught in flames, so she quietly retreated, but before disappearing, she shouted at the top of her voice: "Oh no, it's gone, come and put out the fire!" ”

It was as if a drop of water fell into the smoking hot oil, and for a while, the quiet backyard suddenly became noisy.

Outside the back door, Azhuo heard the voice, exchanged glances with the person behind him, and then came to the door and flew up.

Boom~

Ah Zhuo kicked the door open, she raised the scimitar in her hand, didn't speak, and made a 'rush forward' motion.

The twenty strong soldiers are all carefully trained private soldiers of the Annan Palace, although they are not as good as the Qi army, but they are also fierce men who are not afraid of death, and they follow Ah Zhuo one by one, and they are like tigers out of the gate and enter the rear office.

However, before they could enter the main courtyard where Gu Jialuo was, they lit up the torches, and Ah Zhuo looked at them and broke out in a cold sweat.

I don't know when, dozens of Qi family guards armed with bows and crossbows and big knives appeared around, all expressionless, and the arrows were already on the strings, aiming directly at Ah Zhuo and the others......

PS: Eh, a certain Sa lost his words, sorry sorry. What's that, I will definitely resume the double shift tomorrow, hehe. (To be continued.) )
