The leader of the bandits shook his head, then cried and laughed, and snorted fiercely: "Damn it! Lao Tzu still thinks that he is a little white dragon in the water, and he is a waste who can't water for a long time! Go down a few people and get that kid up! Shame on you, phew! ”
When a few bandits who knew how to water heard this, they plunged into the lake and swam quickly to Ren Xiaoyao. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The bandits standing on the shore watched the movements of Ren Yao's struggle on the lake become weaker and weaker, and then slowly sank to the bottom of the lake, and gradually the whole person disappeared on the lake, and then, the drowning man seemed to be unwilling, struggling to stretch a hand out of the lake, and the bandits were startled, which was too suspense!
They saw the hand that emerged from the lake waving twice in mid-air, and then struck the middle finger at the bandits on the shore, and finally the middle finger finally sank weakly, like a silk silkworm, like an ash of wax torch......
The Imperial Palace of the capital.
"What? He's not dead? The emperor stood up and looked at Bai Liyun with a happy face in shock, and then, the emperor's expression gradually soothed, his eyes showed ecstasy, and finally he looked up to the sky and laughed: "This bastard boy!" I knew he couldn't die! God would not dare to accept such a scourge! ”
Bai Liyun smiled, twisted his body dissatisfied, and said coquettishly: "Father, what are you talking about? How did he become a scourge? He's your son-in-law......"
The emperor smiled, and then sank his face: "There must be a premeditation behind this matter, I don't know who is the mastermind." Hum! What a guts! Deliberately making a fake corpse to confuse the public, in a vain attempt to disrupt my arrangement of the court situation, if it weren't for Qian Yun's careful care, I'm afraid I would have fallen for his plan! ”
Although Bai Liyun is a female streamer, after all, she is a royal adult, but her knowledge is extraordinary, she pondered for a moment, and said: "Father, if my husband is really dead, according to my father, who will profit the most in the court?" ”
The emperor glanced at her, his face twitched, and finally sighed: "The one who has the greatest profit is of course the crown prince......"
Bai Liyun raised her eyebrows when she heard this, she and the prince are not brothers and sisters of the same mother, and they have no family affection at all, and they can't help but be angry when they hear that the prince may have instigated the murder of her husband.
The emperor groaned, shook his head, and said, "...... If someone wants to blame him and profit from it, won't the prince be wronged? ”
Bai Liyun snorted: "Blame the prince, what benefit can the lord behind him make?" ”
The emperor smiled and said: "You are your daughter's family, you don't have to understand these things, now the plan is to find Ren Xiaoyao as soon as possible." ”
Saying that, the emperor said in a deep voice: "Someone is coming! Xuan Feng Qiu Dao, Wen Sen quickly came to see you! ”
Not long after, Feng Qiudao and Wen Sen entered the palace. The two of them looked calm, but their eyes also showed undisguised joy, it seemed that they had already known the news that Ren Xiaoyao was not dead in the Ren Mansion.
The emperor looked at the two of them and said slowly: "Ren Xiaoyao is still alive, you already know about this, right?" ”
Seeing the two nodding again and again. With a smile on his face, the emperor also smiled, and continued: "One of you is Ren Xiaoyao's friend, and the other is his subordinate, so you must be the person he trusts the most." I have sent you an errand. Take your subordinates with you, and be sure to find Ren Yao! ”
The two bowed down to receive the order, and Feng Qiudao said: "Your Majesty, how many soldiers and horses can the last general lead out of the camp to look for?" Please show the emperor! ”
In ancient times, generals trained in the barracks. It is not allowed to take troops out of the camp without following orders, and even if they are ordered, they must have a clear explanation of how many people they bring and what they are going to do, otherwise they will be punished as conspiracy.
The emperor thought for a moment. Said: "You can lead 5,000 soldiers and horses, the search range is not necessarily only outside the city, you can search for it in a place a little farther away from the capital, I estimate that Ren Xiaoyao may be in some kind of predicament, otherwise he will not not contact me." After you find him, you can lead the troops and horses of your headquarters to help him get out of trouble, and the 5,000 soldiers and horses can be handed over to his command, and if necessary, you will be allowed to transfer troops to support the Longwu army. ”
Feng Qiudao answered loudly.
The emperor turned to Vincent again and said, "You take your subordinates to be responsible for the secret investigation." If you find any clues, follow them all the way, and remember, I will be alive and free, if you scare the snake and kill him. Let's come to see me! ”
Vincent was stunned and hurriedly responded.
"Remember, you two are bright and dark, and you cooperate with each other. We must find Ren Yao's whereabouts and bring him alive to me! And also. This matter should not be publicized, if anyone asks, Feng Qiudao, you can say to the outside world that you were ordered to inspect the military defense situation near Gyeonggi. ”
The two took the order and left.
Bai Liyun looked at the backs of the two of them leaving the palace, and couldn't help but be a little worried in her eyes.
Where the hell is this damn bastard? What's the dilemma? I wonder how many people in my family are worried about him?
"Qian Yun, let it be free, you should rest assured. You haven't eaten in a few days, haven't you? Come, I'll have something to eat with you. The emperor gently pressed Bai Liyun's thin shoulder and said softly.
Bai Liyun bit her lower lip, nodded, and then shook her head again: "Father, my father-in-law and mother-in-law are worried about the safety of my husband at home, and the second elder is not in good health, I have to serve them, go back first." ”
The emperor looked at Bai Liyun, his eyes seemed to be relieved and lost, and he smiled and sighed: "My Qianyun has grown up and is sensible......"
Bai Liyun smiled, her big eyes were curved like a crescent moon: "I am the young lady of the Ren family, my husband is not here, the second elder is weak now, I should be the backbone of the family, I can't let my husband be disappointed in me, father, Qian Yun has retired." ”
The emperor looked at Baili Yun's increasingly emaciated back, sighed and shook his head. This daughter who has been held in the palm of her hand since she was a child, this golden branch and jade leaf who has always been rude and willful, and never thinks about others, is now a new wife, but she has taken on the rise and fall of her husband's family, she is finally sensible, and it is even more cherishable.
-------------------------------
Ren Xiaoyao was very uncomfortable now, he was lying on a simple bed, and on the floor next to the bed was a wooden barrel, which was half full...... Lake?
Ren Xiaoyao touched his round belly and sighed, and was about to say something to sigh about his bumpy life, his mouth opened, his face turned white again, and he was busy pulling the wooden barrel, "wow", and continued to spit the turbid lake water into the bucket.
The two bandits who were in charge of guarding him next to him sneered: "I can't see that this kid Wenwen is weak like a wilting chicken, and he can still hold a lot in his belly, this is the second bucket, right?" ”
Another bandit laughed and said, "Yes, this kid is also a little bit old, don't jump into the water if you can't swim, isn't this looking for death?" ”
Ren Xiaoyao wiped his mouth after spitting, and couldn't help but answer: "What if you don't jump?" Aren't you going to kill me? Even if I am drowned, I will be left with a whole corpse, and I will be chopped into dumpling stuffing by you, and I can't fight, if it's you, can you jump? ”
The bandit laughed: "But just before you dived, our leader had already spoken, and I won't kill you......"
Ren Xiaoyao felt a burst of grief and indignation in his heart when he heard this, and finally couldn't help but let out another "wow", and spit out two mouthfuls of bitter lake water: "...... Speak early! If I knew that you would not kill me, would my grandson jump into the lake......"
Lying back on the bed weakly, Ren Yao sighed heavily.
It's been almost a year, right? How could I ever be in such a bad situation? Ren Xiaoyao never thought that he was a capable person, modern inventions, he didn't want to engage in them, he didn't have the great wisdom of living in officialdom, and he didn't even think about being the king and hegemon, at best, he relied on his own little cleverness to take advantage of a little bit of advantage, which is not a big sin, right? He felt that the value of his existence was to society as a whole. Even if you don't make a big contribution, it's not enough to be beheaded.
But why are you so miserable? originally thought that after defeating Pan Shangshu, he could live a leisurely life with his wives for a few years in peace, and he could fish at home. Drink alcohol. Take advantage of the wives, and when you are so idle, you can even hide from Bailiyun and quietly go to the Qinglou Painting Boat to drink a flower wine or something. What an outstanding young man who has no quarrel with the world, how could he be kidnapped by bandits if he didn't recruit anyone and provoke anyone?
And also. If you say that there is no one behind you to instruct him, and you don't believe it when you kill him, you must have seen that you are in power and are in someone's way. So he secretly made a black hand. The question is, who am I getting into? If I go missing or die, who is in the best interest of the court?
The situation between the DPRK and China has gradually balanced, and under the arrangement of the emperor, the crown prince will serve one term, he and the fat man will be counted for one term, and some old conservative ministers in the DPRK and China will be counted as one term, plus the newly promoted officials and neutrals, and now there are four factions in the DPRK and China that are openly and secretly vying for each other. They all want to take the initiative in this new round of court struggle, if something happens to themselves, then the fat man will definitely be difficult to support alone, and he will not last long, and the balance of the court situation painstakingly arranged by the emperor will be broken. At that time, if someone comes forward to suppress and win over other forces, and then integrate them, there will be the old situation of Pan Shangshu dominating the court again.
Who has the ability and prestige to come forward and win over other forces?
The answer is imminent.
Prince. If something happens to him, the prince will naturally benefit the most.
But. Why did the prince do this? The violent death of Liu Changsheng, the general of the Shence Army, the crown prince has already registered in the emperor's heart. The suspicion is not yet cleared, does he dare to openly attack himself? With his IQ, it seems that he would not do such an idiotic thing, isn't this forcing the emperor to depose him?
Whoever instigated this, it was in his best interest to kill me on the spot, why did he just let the bandits tie me up to the mountain? It's a very puzzling question, but am I still useful to him? And it seems that these bandits are not simple characters, daring to do this case, and transporting themselves out of the city unhindered, shows that they have colluded with a powerful person in Beijing, but they don't seem to know that they are tied up by an official of the imperial court......
There are too many doubts in this matter from beginning to end, like several dead knots on a rope, Ren Xiaoyao can't untie any of them now, and he can't help but feel a little frustrated.
For now, these are secondary, what is the most important? It's to survive in this murderous and weird bandit den! Only by living can those mysteries be solved, and if a person dies, everything has nothing to do with him.
Ren Xiaoyao gritted his teeth and secretly made up his mind to live! Gotta Live! I want to go down the mountain alive, return to the capital alive, and reunite with my family and wife......
Thinking of this, the expression on Ren Xiaoyao's face changed, and suddenly he became extremely flattering, and smiled flatteringly at the two bandits guarding him: "What do you call the two eldest brothers?" Hehe, the younger brother Ren Xiaowu, is just a small house from a rich family in Beijing, I don't know why the eldest brothers tied the younger brother up the mountain? ”
A bandit rolled his eyes and said, "Don't be close to Lao Tzu, how does Lao Tzu know why the boss wants to tie you up this useless waste?" ”
Ren Xiaoyao nodded again and again and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, the little brother also feels puzzled, it is not easy for you to go down the mountain, you kidnap me as a hard-working little guy who has no money and no relatives, it is really incomprehensible, the little brother said that he didn't like it, you can be regarded as a loss-making deal this time......
The bandit smiled indifferently: "Boy, if you expect us to let you go down the mountain, then you have miscalculated, if you don't have money, you can try the knife for our brother, we don't care about the ransom of the two jujubes, we just want to kill and kill, have a good time, haha......"
Ren Xiaoyao's face turned pale with fright, and he swallowed his saliva with difficulty, these inhuman bandits! provoked the young master and my sex, I still ...... Really have to get along with them......
Ren Xiaoyao sat cross-legged on the bed sullenly, I don't know what he was thinking, the two bandits ignored him, chatted with themselves, and hotly discussed which Qinglou has the most beautiful powder head at the bottom of the mountain, which old bustard in the kiln is the most coquettish, which casino dealer is out of the old thousand, etc., the bandits are talking about the topic is very humane, inseparable from four words, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling.
Very suddenly, there was a sudden sound of heroism in the room. In fact, it is a piercing singing.
"The great river flows eastward, and the stars in the sky are in the Big Dipper! Hey, hey, hey, hey, Beidou Wow, a bowl of wine at the turn of life and death, wow......"
The two bandits were so frightened that the knives in their hands fell to the ground, and the two looked around vigilantly. only to find that the voice came from Ren Xiaoyao, who had his back to them.
Ren Xiaoyao turned around as he sang. Facing them, his mouth opened and closed hoarsely, but with a flattering smile on his face, he kept squeezing his eyebrows at them......
“…… Let's go. You've got me, you've got it all, wow...... Hey, hey, hey, all of them, wow, there's no turning back in the fire and water......"
The two bandits frowned.
"What's wrong with this guy? Why is the broken gong voice embarrassed to sing so loudly? "A bandit can't stand Ren Yao's shrill singing.
Ren Xiaoyao's face was suffocated when he heard this, Lao Tzu struggled to sing to please you, but you actually said that I broke my voice? Do you understand appreciation?
Thinking angrily in his heart, Ren Xiaoyao's mouth did not stop: "...... When the road was uneven, he roared. Shoot when it's time to shoot......"
When the singing arrived, Ren Xiaoyao's voice became more and more high-pitched and ...... Cacophony?
One of the bandits' faces turned pale and rebuked fiercely: "Shut up Lao Tzu!" What the hell is shit......"
Another bandit was obviously much more educated, so he hurriedly grabbed him and said, "Hey, let him sing, the voice is a little ugly, the words are not bad, it seems to be talking about the behavior of our heroes, which is a bit interesting." Fun! ”
Suddenly, the door of the wooden house was kicked open with a strong kick, and more than a dozen bandits rushed in with knives and guns in their hands.
After the bandits came in, they looked left and right, and the leader of the group wondered, "Damn it! What were you doing? ”
The two bandits guarding Ren Xiaoyao pointed at Ren Xiaoyao: "This kid doesn't know what's crazy. Singing ......"
"Singing?" The leader glanced at Ren Xiaoyao, who quickly smiled at him flatteringly.
"Yes! Don't sing it anymore! Do you hear that? The leader turned his face when he said it, and after glaring at Ren Xiaoyao viciously, he turned his head and left. While walking, he scolded and scolded: "Fuck! I thought that the officers and soldiers were beating the gong and going up the mountain to encircle and suppress us. I also said that this officer and soldier are good enough, and they actually brought a wilted gong up the mountain, and it was really fucking disturbing......"
“…………”
Qu Gao and Widow! Ren Xiaoyao clenched his fists angrily, in order to live, I will not give up to please you! Wait!
Before I knew it, a whole day passed, and by the evening of the next day, Ren Xiaoyao had been allowed to walk around in front of the open space of the wooden house group, of course, this was also related to his well-behaved currying favor with the bandits, after all, the bandits were not unreasonable, Ren Xiaoyao only said a dozen meat jokes and completely conquered them.
There are no female dependents on the mountain, and the bandits are not allowed to go down the mountain on weekdays, and now there is a meat ticket for them to say that meat jokes can relieve boredom, of course the bandits are happy to give him a little convenience, and the bandits are not lacking in heart, but they are quite confident in the traps on the mountain, and know that even if Ren Xiaoyao slips away while people are not paying attention, it will never be possible to get out of this mountain alive.
From this point of view, the situation is more optimistic, Ren Xiaoyao estimated that if he told them the whole book of the golden bottle plum at the bottom of the box, they might allow themselves to walk around the mountain, of course, the key depends on the attitude of the master who has never met. If people are not good at this, I will continue to sing good songs to him, if he is an iron-blooded tender, I will sing deeply and rainy, and I can't let him go if I don't believe it......
After walking for a while, Ren Xiaoyao returned to the room.
The bearded face brought him dinner, the bandits' life was still very good, Ren Xiaoyao's dinner was a fat and thick, oily hoof, a large bowl of rice, and a bowl of mushroom soup, it seems that what the master said is still quite authoritative among the bandits, he said that he can't harm Ren Xiaoyao, and the bandits didn't abuse him.
Ren Xiaoyao stared at the bowl of soup in front of him, his face turned a little blue, and he couldn't help himself from vomiting. Since Ren Xiaoyao was salvaged from the lake by bandits yesterday, Ren Xiaoyao is like having rabies, and he is afraid when he sees water, even if it is a bowl of soup, he feels uncomfortable in his heart......
At this moment, the cheers of a group of bandits came from outside the house, and the bearded face listened carefully, and then said with great joy: "The master is back!" Hehe, hehe......" After saying that, the bearded face slipped out of the smoke and greeted his boss.
After a while, he put down his chopsticks and planned to go out with him to see who this bandit leader was.
After thinking about it, Ren Xiaoyao sat down again.
Can't go out, what if they let their heads see the meat tickets they have caught with their own hands, swagger around in their bandit den, and chop themselves up if they are in a bad mood? Wronged or not?
Thinking of this, Ren Yao leisurely picked up the chopsticks. Eat it up. The boss of the family, not my boss, why am I going out in a hurry? How cheap! No matter how capable the head is, he is just a thief, and Lao Tzu has no ability. He is also a big official of the imperial court. In terms of status, it should be their head of the house who came to visit me. Well, make up your mind and never take the initiative to see him!
After Ren Xiaoyao decided. So he stayed in the house and never went out. The largest hut in the bandits' den was bustling that night, with a large crowd of people arguing and laughing, mixed with the sound of fists, dishes smashing, and drunken vomiting. It was so noisy that Ren Xiaoyao covered his ears and tossed and turned on the bed, and he couldn't sleep. - This is going to put aside the past life, Lao Tzu has already called the police, a bunch of things without social morality!
The bandits made a fuss until midnight, and then they dispersed one after another, and the bandits' den finally quieted down.
Ren Xiaoyao sighed, turned over and continued to sleep. I thought in my heart that if I escaped and returned to the capital in the future, I must persuade the emperor to establish a noise nuisance law. Whoever is noisy in the middle of the night and the haunter cries wolf, fined!
turned over again on the bed, and Ren Xiaoyao sat up helplessly, damn! Insomnia! These bastards!
Put on your clothes and let the door open. Walked out. He was going to take a walk, maybe he would be able to fall asleep when he got tired of walking.
It was already winter, and the mountain wind at night was cold to the bone, and Ren Xiaoyao couldn't help but shiver. I gathered my clothes and walked towards the lake.
Let's be honest. The black light is blind, Ren Xiaoyao is a little scared, what if he accidentally steps on the trap planted by the bandits? What if you accidentally step on the air and fall into the lake? In case of...... What should I do if I encounter a ghost?
Ren Xiaoyao shrank his neck, and after thinking about it, he decided to go back and continue to sleep, don't do bold things for the faint of heart, life is your own, you have to cherish it.
Just as he was about to turn around and walk back, he heard the sound of stones thrown into the water from the lake, Ren Xiaoyao was startled, and he stood up with goosebumps all over his body.
"Who? Who's there? Ren Xiaoyao squinted and looked hard.
No one paid attention to him, Ren Yao boldly walked a few steps closer, but saw a woman sitting on a huge rock by the lake.
The night was too dark, Ren Xiaoyao couldn't see her face clearly, only to see that she was dressed in a samurai suit, which set off her slender figure gracefully, a pair of slender long legs curled up, and the woman was holding her knees with both hands, raising her head and staring at a dull and colorless crescent moon in the night sky.
Ren Xiaoyao was shocked, how could there be a woman in this land where birds don't lay eggs? Could it be a ghost? Ghosts?
His mood was like electricity, Ren Xiaoyao thought about it, and decided to get closer to see if this female ghost looked beautiful, if she wasn't beautiful, it wouldn't be too late to turn around and flash again......
The bold Young Master Ren finally couldn't resist the temptation, and quietly walked a few steps forward, and by the faint moonlight, the woman's pretty face finally saw it clearly. This look at it has hooked Ren Yao's soul without a trace.
I saw the woman's goose egg face, beautiful eyes and red lips, long eyebrows, straight nose, and eyes like autumn water. If the facial features are separated, it is not surprising, but the wonderful thing is that when they are matched together, they look pleasing to the eye, and people are amazed by the magic of creation. What's even better is that her eyebrows are a little too straight, which makes the whole person soft and a little heroic, and she is really a rare beauty in the world. (To be continued.) )
