52.Gold Robbery (1)
Chapter 51: The Gold Robbery (1)
Lord Xu ran back and forth, already sweating, raised his sleeves to wipe the beads of sweat from his forehead, and asked, "My lord, what can I do now?" ”
The box was heavy, and the official hadn't carried it back yet, Su Yunkai thought for a moment and said, "Is the road back to the Daimyo's Mansion open?" ”
"It's almost over."
Su Yunkai twisted his eyebrows and thought carefully, that is to say, since the robbery incident, no one has passed. That is, no one knows about the loss of the dart car, the destination is Zhuangjiakou, which is an eight-day drive from here, "Lord Xu, I bother you with one thing." When the road is reopened, I'll escort the boxes to our destination with the dart master, and after we've been walking for four days, you'll be officially allowed to take the road. ”
They went four days ahead, so that even the messenger could not catch up with them.
Lord Xu understood after a little thought, and whispered, "Do you want to continue to use this box of money as bait to catch the person who received the goods?" ”
"Hmm."
Lord Xu confiscated this box of stolen goods, and he didn't know what to do, but he was happy to see that the official of the Daimyo Mansion Road was willing to take it away and solve the gold robbery in person.
It's just that Yang Jinggang has no son, so naturally he doesn't have the heart to pay attention to these things. He found the second master of the Bafang Dart Bureau, and the second master did not want to get into this kind of trouble, so it was naturally better to solve it as soon as possible, and promised to remove Yang An's quota, and the remaining nine dart masters would escort him together, and the replacement for Yang An was Bai Shui.
The road had not yet been opened, so in order to go out at the first moment, Su Yunkai did not go to the county office, but went directly to the nearby tent to wait, and the dart master also lived nearby.
When the day was approaching, Qin Fang woke up, still woken up by the sound of birds outside. Close to the mountains and forests, it is really noisy. He yawned and tried to get out of bed, but heard the sound of white water outside the tent and immediately stopped.
Since the exchange of hearts that day, the two have not spoken, not because he doesn't want to, but because he doesn't know how to say it.
It was impossible for Bai Shui to give up investigating her brother's affairs, a girl with such a twisted temper, even if she knew that Su Yunkai was reliable, would not leave all the things to his brother-in-law. In this case, she will inevitably enter Kaifeng through the opportunity to climb and then investigate.
Then you will inevitably not be able to identify yourself.
He only had to think about his hot-tempered father to know that he and Bai Shui would not have a future.
Do you want him to give up his title?
He really wasn't that determined yet.
He understands that he has a few pounds and a few taels, he is good at eating and drinking, he has never earned a copper plate since he was a child, and he really has no confidence that he can support two people, and he will have children in the future. If his father was a little more ruthless, he would not even do a small business for him, and would send people to keep an eye on him for the rest of his life.
Thinking about what he had thought about countless times in the past few days, Qin Fang let out a long sigh, these days have really brought back the anger of the previous ten years.
Those who practice martial arts should always be more sensitive to hearing, let alone so close to the tent. Mingyue, who was talking to Bai Shui, didn't hear it, but Bai Shui could hear it clearly. She paused slightly, her eyes slanted slightly, and looked at the tent.
When she decided to make it clear to Qin Fang that day, she had already made all kinds of preparations, including of course the preparation for the two to draw a line from now on. So in the past two days, she has been more calm than Qin Fang, and she has not flinched from him, and she can't look straight ahead. She thought that when he returned to the Daimyo's mansion, he would definitely excuse himself to leave, and then he would not see each other at the end of the world.
Thinking like this, the girl's mind also became stunned, and she felt two more sorrowful.
Mingyue thought she was tired, so she said, "You should also go and rest, when Lord Su comes back from the county office, there will definitely be something for you to do." ”
Bai Shui smiled, "I'm not tired, after I went to the mansion, I have rarely talked to you well, and it is rare that you still drive me away when I have free time now." ”
Mingyue pursed her lips and smiled at her, "It seems that you are not busy when you are in the county office, and you often chat with me." ”
Bai Shui smiled dumbly, "Then compensate you now." ”
Mingyue saw that there was movement in the tent behind her, and glanced at her and whispered, "You fell out with the little marquis?" ”
"It's a showdown, not a fallout."
"That ......"
"Bright Moon." Bai Shui shook his head slightly, not wanting to continue talking about it. In her opinion, this matter has come to an end, and there is no need to mention it again. mentioned too much, and it was not easy for her to calm down, but she was afraid that she would set off a huge wave again, which would make people sleepless day and night.
Mingyue also knew that it was interesting, so she didn't mention it, yes, she couldn't interfere in this kind of thing, both of them were adults, and they would solve this matter well, she just waited for the result. She spoke to her again before entering the tent.
But in two moments, she heard Su Yunkai's voice coming back, looked at it, and turned her back to this direction and didn't know what to say to Bai Shui. Sure enough, as soon as they came back, they had something to do, and these two people were simply tumblers who would not fall day and night.
She quietly retracted her head and lowered the tent curtain so as not to disturb them.
She didn't want to go out to have a look when there was no sound outside, but she saw Bai Shui bending in with a paper bag in his hand. Mingyue looked at the round shape, bent her eyes and asked with a smile, "Roast chicken?" ”
Bai Shui smiled, "You know how to eat." ”
As he spoke, he handed her the thing and asked her to dismantle it herself. Mingyue untied the paper bag, three layers inside and three layers outside, and the paper was unraveled in a pile. When the last layer was peeled off, it turned out to be a pair of embroidered shoes embroidered in the moon season. She said happily, "It's better for you, knowing that I can't wear these shoes, buy me a pair." ”
Bai Shui looked at her like a wooden man, "You stupid, when did I leave here, I conjured shoes for you?" ”
That's right, Mingyue, who was looking through her shoes, understood, "Master Su? ”
"Shh Bai Shui said, "Master Su won't let me say it, I thought you could guess, but I didn't expect to remind ......."
"Why don't you let me say it?"
Bai Shui couldn't cry or laugh, one of these two people was a stuffy gourd, and even if they were both. She sighed and shook her head, "Think for yourself." ”
Seeing her look like a stupid person, Mingyue reacted and blushed. Su Yunkai knew that her shoes could no longer be worn, so he took advantage of the fact that he went to the county office to buy a new one. But the man gave the woman shoes...... This makes people know that it is not good after all, and they are afraid that she will be embarrassed, so Tuo Baishui quietly gave it to her.
Bai Shui knew that it was rare for him to meet his lover, and when he saw her like this, he patted her on the shoulder as if comforting himself, "Master Su is a good person, be honest, there will be a lot less misunderstanding." ”
Mingyue is not open to her own affairs, but she is extremely sensitive to the affairs of others, and said softly, "What happened to you and the little monkey?" In the past two days, he has changed as a person, like you are bullying him. ”
Bai Shui glared, "Where am I bullying him, I just let him figure it out, if he doesn't do how to face those pressures in the future, don't come near me again." ”
"But the little monkey also has his own things to consider, he grew up in Kyoto since he was a child, and the amount of food and drink is good and expensive, which is like asking you to give up tracking Brother Baiying, can you give the answer at once? Don't be discouraged by the little monkey and let him think about it for a few more days. ”
"I understand." The authorities are fascinated, Bai Shui can be regarded as understanding, she still laughs at her for being stupid, in fact, both of them are stupid.
When Mingyue saw her go out, she changed her shoes, and it turned out to be just right. The color is also beautiful, and the embroidery is also delicate, and it looks more like it was bought by a shop specializing in selling shoes. I don't know how he asked the shopkeeper when he went to buy shoes. Thinking about it is like taking a bite of candied fruit, which is very sweet.
At noon, a fire was lit outside to cook, Mingyue smelled the smell of firewood and went out to help, and when she went out, she saw Su Yunkai standing there. She hesitated for half a step, but walked over, "My lord." ”
Su Yunkai leaned over when he heard the sound, and subconsciously looked at her feet, saw that she had already put on her shoes, and wanted to ask if they fit well, and remembered that he had to conceal that he had sent them himself, so he didn't say anything. Mingyue said generously, "The shoes are very suitable." ”
Su Yunkai immediately understood that he had been "betrayed" by Bai Shui, but he was not embarrassed to see her, and he was even more calm when he was surprised, "It's just suitable." ”
Lord Xu was afraid that he would not be used to living there, so he sent two cooks over, who would be cooking on a fire. Both of them were hungry, and they had no idea of going anywhere else, so they just stood there waiting for food.
After a while, white smoke came out of the fire, and it was blowing in this direction. Su Yunkai saw that Mingyue was still clubbing and didn't move, and when he saw the fireworks coming, he grabbed Mingyue's wrist and pulled it to the side to avoid the white smoke.
Mingyue said, "I'm so hungry." ”
Su Yunkai, who had been running around all morning, agreed, "Well, I'm hungry." ”
Mingyue smiled and said, "You said that you arrived at the banker's mouth on May 1, what if no one comes to pick it up?" I am afraid that by then, the messenger who lost the dart cart has found an opportunity to sue his employer, and then he will not come. ”
"Is two hundred catties of gold a lot?"
"Of course it's a lot, I won't be able to make that much money in my life."
Su Yun laughed and said, "For me, that money is also a lot, even for Qin Fang, who is the Commander-in-Chief Emperor's grace. But so much money is consigned so casually, not because the employer is not in a hurry, but because it is stolen goods, and it is better to be careful on the road. But once you reach your destination, you will be safe, and at that point, the employer will just be eager to show up, eager to transport it home and hide it well. Only under your own nose is the most reassuring. ”
Mingyue thought about it, and it seemed that this was indeed the truth, and said happily, "I understand, now I just have to wait for the road of the collapse to reopen, and after arriving at the banker's mouth, I will be able to know who the stolen goods are." ”
Su Yunkai saw that she was full of fighting spirit and smiled. When this gold robbery is solved, then she can go back to the Daimyo's Mansion and let her rest well.
