Chapter 21: Rebellion
She inquired all the way and walked all the way, and it took half an hour to find an alley in the north of the city. There was a small courtyard at the end of the alley, and two osmanthus trees were planted in the yard, but now they had lost their leaves, and only the branches were shaken by the night wind.
Dong Rong walked over quietly, took a closer look at the ebony plaque on the lintel, and the wooden characters in the word "Mujia" were really missing, so she turned around and walked out of the alley. But she had just walked out of the alley when she was stopped.
Dong Rong was startled, and was about to speak, but she didn't want the person to ask first, "Are you Mrs. Dong?" ”
"Who are you? What to do? Dong Rong heard the other party call out his identity, and took two steps back vigilantly, his right hand hanging by his side, ready to pull out a dagger to defend himself. But the other party also took two steps back, and deliberately revealed his appearance by the light of the lantern in front of a grocery store.
"Owner, you don't know me anymore, I'm Wuliu who followed the three young masters and young ladies out!"
"Wuliu?" Dong Rong could see the appearance of the person in front of him clearly, and immediately stepped forward with great joy and grabbed his sleeve, "Why are you still here, Brother Qi, Brother Ming, and Chenxi?" Where are they all, but have they returned to Taoyuan Island? ”
"The owner," the man lowered his voice, and reassured while watching vigilantly in private, "Don't worry, it's a long story." Wu Jiaotou is also in Binzhou City, so it is better for the owner to go back with me and ask the head of the sect to know. ”
"Okay, let's go." After many days, Dong Rong finally met a "family member", and her joy was indescribable.
A flash of joy flashed in Na Wuliu's eyes, and he led the way first, and the two of them spared a lot of circles in dozens of small alleys in the north of the city, and finally arrived at a slightly larger courtyard. Wu Liu knocked three long and three short at the back door of the courtyard, and soon someone opened the door. Dong Rong looked at it through the light, and it was actually a familiar person, so she whispered, "Wusi, you are also here?" What about the head of the Wu sect? ”
Wu Si was so shocked that he didn't speak for a long time, his expression was as frightened as if he had seen a ghost, Wu Liu hurriedly stepped forward and punched him, and joked in a low voice, "What's the matter, fourth, don't you look for the owner all day long, I'm afraid that the owner will be killed by Maitreya." When you really see the owner at this time, why can't you speak again? ”
Na Wu Si hit a spirit, hurriedly bent down and saluted, and responded vaguely in his mouth, "Boss, you are safe and sound, come in, come in!" ”
Dong Rong smiled, and as the two entered the small courtyard, Wu Liu greeted, "Fourth, you lead the owner to the living room, and I will invite Wu Jiaotou." If he knew that the owner was coming, he would be crazy with joy. ”
As he spoke, he turned to a room in the corner of the courtyard. Dong Rong turned her head to take a closer look, but Wu Si blocked her sight, and said with a smile, "Boss, let's go sit in the hall, and the little one will make you a pot of tea." ”
"Okay," Dong Rong smiled and walked with him to the living room, and responded, "Thank you for your hard work." ”
"The owner has tormented me."
The two of them arrived in the living room while talking, Wu Si didn't know if he didn't do these things often on weekdays, or if he was born slowly, and a pot of tea tossed for a quarter of an hour before it was brought to Dong Rong. Dong Rong didn't urge him, but looked at the furnishings in the room slowly.
In the room in the corner of the backyard, Wu Jiaotou had just finished drinking a pot of wine and was lying on the bed with his feet crossed. Seeing that a few more months have passed, and if you can't complete the task, not to mention whether you can't go back to the main altar, or whether you can save your life are two words.
When he suddenly saw Wu Liu coming in, he scolded angrily, "Where did you run away again, if you don't do anything serious all day, you know how to be lazy!" ”
Wu Liu tried his best to suppress the color of ecstasy, stepped forward and whispered, "Sect leader, go to the hall and have a look, I brought the owner!" ”
"Who are you talking about, Dong Dongjia?" Wu Jiaotou jumped up in shock, and Jiao Sheng asked, "Is she alone, or did she bring a helper?" ”
Wu Liu proudly said, "Don't worry, the head of the sect, only herself." I just came back from outside, passing by the entrance of Wuliu Lane, and happened to see her knocking on the door, so I pushed the boat down the river and tricked her back. It seems that she has been living abroad recently, and she doesn't know the news of our anti-water. ”
"Great, it's a nowhere to find it. You've done a lot of work! Wu Jiaotou was overjoyed, the big slap Peng Peng slapped Wu Liu's back, and at the end of his eyes, he quickly turned around twice, and commanded in a low voice, "You go to the restaurant to buy two light side dishes, add some soft tendons, and then send them to the front hall." I'm going to fool around a few words first, remember to be quick! This woman is not a fool, and after a long time, I am afraid that she will become suspicious. ”
"Yes, Leader." Wu Liu went out and went directly to the restaurant, while Wu Jiaotou tidied up his clothes and went to the front hall.
Dong Rong was drinking tea, and when she saw Wu Jiaotou coming in, she immediately stood up, and Wu Jiaotou also took a few steps to get closer, and "Puff" knelt down, kowtowing and choking in a low voice, "Dongjia, it's great that you are safe and sound." The old slave is sorry for your and the prince's entrustment, the old slave is guilty! ”
Speaking of which, Wu Jiaotou is also an old man of the Dong family, when Murong Huaide went to the grassland to assassinate the eldest prince, causing chaos in the grassland, he followed him. Otherwise, Dong Rong would not have handed over the responsibility of guarding the three children to him.
Seeing him crying with snot and tears at this time, Dong Rong's heart felt like falling into the cold winter wax moon, and it was completely cold. She picked up Wu Jiaotou and hurriedly asked, "Wu Jiaotou, what's wrong, but something happened to the three children?" Say it quickly! ”
Wu Jiaotou wiped a handful of tears and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, don't worry! The three little masters, they must still be safe. It's just that when the old slave escorted them to play here in Binzhou, they suddenly secretly got rid of the old slave and left. The old slave has been looking for several months, and there is no news. However, the family did not receive any blackmail letters or anything like that, so presumably they still traveled around the country and did not suffer. ”
"These three dead children," Dong Rong frowned fiercely angrily, it was they who left her side under the pretext of sending Gardi, she was not at ease to send Wu Jiaotou to follow the guards, where did she think that they were so bold, even the guards were thrown off, and they went to play alone.
"Don't worry about the owner, the little masters are all smart, and they don't know where to play these days. The house is already being searched, and there will definitely be news in a few days. ”
Wu Jiaotou persuaded a few words, but Dong Rong didn't say much, so he had to put away his anger and began to inquire about the business bank. Wu Jiaotou used the excuse that he was only busy looking for three children and didn't know much about the business house, so he dealt with it vaguely for a long time, and finally waited for Wuliu to buy back the food.
"Boss, you can eat a bite to eat first, rest for a while, and then think about other things."
"Okay, you guys go out first, I'll wash up and eat, let's talk slowly."
Sect Leader Wu respectfully agreed, and then withdrew from the door with Wu Si and Wu Liu, and they didn't dare to go far, so they stayed at the door and listened to the sound of water and chopsticks inside, with a smug look on their faces that they had succeeded in their tricks.
After a while, I heard Dong Rong shouting loudly in the house, "Sect Leader Wu, come in." ”
Wu Jiaotou glanced at Wu Si and Wu Liu, and then opened the door and walked in, he glanced at the dishes on the table that were a little missing, and his heart was much more steady.
"Boss, have you ever eaten enough? The taste of the restaurant must not be as good as at home, so you can take care of it more. ”
"Sect Leader Wu is polite, when he goes out, and it is an eventful time, where can he pay so much attention." Dong Rong spoke, raised her hand and poured four cups of warm tea herself, picked up one first, and said, "These days, it is difficult for you to find three children in Tiannan and Haibei." Come, I'll toast you three with tea instead of wine. ”
The first three of Wu Jiaotou hurriedly took the teacup and said, "The owner has tormented the villain, this is what we should do." ”
Dong Rong smiled slightly, raised her hand and drank tea, and didn't use a handkerchief at the end, she directly pulled her sleeve and wiped the corners of her mouth. The three of them glanced at each other, and then they also drank the tea.
The four of them sat at the table and said a few more gossips, Wu Jiaotou calculated that the time was almost up, so he showed his true form, got up and ordered Wu Si with a grin, "Let's withdraw the meal, we should talk to the owner about her going and staying." ”
"Yes, Leader." Wu Si smiled in response, removed the dishes in three or two, and when he came back, he took a roll of rope and threw it on the vacant table.
Dong Rong frowned and asked suspiciously, "What are you doing here?" ”
"What to do? Hum! Wu Jiaotou spat on the ground with a mouthful of phlegm, and laughed viciously, "A few months ago, I ran a few little cubs, and I was not less reprimanded by the superiors. Now you have thrown yourself into the net, but there is a way in heaven that you don't take, and there is no way to break into hell. Boss, thank you for giving me a great gift! ”
Dong Rong's face changed, she quickly got up and retreated to the corner, and asked angrily, "You have taken refuge in the Maitreya Sect?" ”
"What do you mean by taking refuge?" Wu Liu picked up the rope and waved it casually, and said with a smile, "Our sect leader was originally the hall master of the Maitreya Sect, no, when we have to send your big fish to the main altar, our sect leader will sit in the position of Dharma protector." ”
"Sect Leader Wu, you have followed the prince for many years, and our husband and wife have treated you well, you are actually a secret agent of the Maitreya Sect. Why, you say? ”
"Why?" Wu Jiaotou snorted coldly, "Of course, for the sake of glory and wealth, when I came back from the grassland, the imperial court intended to let the prince ascend the throne." Our brother followed him from birth to death, and when he saw that he could add to his official robe, he actually gave up the throne for you, a peasant woman. Hmph, this unproductive softass! Since he has cut off our way to be promoted to become rich and glorify our ancestors, don't blame our brothers for voting for the Ming Lord! ”
"yes, that's it." Wu Liu also interjected on the side, he was about to say something more, but suddenly thought of something, and asked in surprise, "Sect leader, why hasn't she had a seizure yet?" ”
Sect Leader Wu was also stunned, and asked instead, "Did you put less medicine?" ”
"No, it's enough to fascinate a horse." Wu Liu felt that something was wrong, and when he got up, he was about to pull out the crossbow arrow in his sleeve, but his hands and feet were suddenly weak, and the whole person fell to the ground on his stomach.
Wu Jiaotou and Wu Si were shocked, and just about to get up, they also fell down together. R638
