The 279th episode Ren Hong is in trouble
"Hong'er is gone?"
Bai Ji raised her eyebrows and continued to listen intently-
Lu Bu lit the horse, kept circling around the carriage, his face was very gloomy, his face that had become a little dull because of fatigue was a little more anxious at this time, a pair of heroic and handsome eyes were dim at this time, there was both worry and anxiety in his eyes, and the days of war made him have no time to take care of his image, his face was slightly yellow, and he looked like he was several years old: "She's just a woman, how are you taking care of the inner courtyard?" Can even a person like Hong'er lose it? ”
A slightly aggrieved female voice came from the carriage: "Husband, since the concubine married you, she has been doing housework for you all these years...... These husbands also saw it, today you suddenly returned to the house, and then immediately said that you were leaving, there are still many things in our house that have not had time to pack up, and they are in a hurry...... There are still many subordinates who are not very flexible, and they didn't have time to clean up, although the concubine asked the maid to call Hong'er, but the courtyard was chaotic at the time, and Hong'er's yard was far away......"
"Well, in that case...... That's just me going to take a team of soldiers back to her! ”
Lu Bu said, ordering the horse and was about to turn around and leave, a medium-looking woman with heavy makeup poked out of the carriage: "Husband, don't leave!" In addition to Fujun here, it is Li Dao and others who lead the team, he and Hu Zhen, these Liangzhou generals, have a lot of complaints about you, if you leave, everyone in our Lu Mansion may be held hostage by them or thrown on the side of the road, and then let the enemy catch up...... That concubine will not have the opportunity to see her husband again in this life! ”
After speaking, the woman whimpered softly, although her appearance was not very beautiful, but there was an unusual charm, and between her frowns, the woman's gentleness and grace were vividly expressed, which could make an iron-clad man like Lu Bu have a sense of trust and closeness to her. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Bai Ji looked carefully, presumably this delicate woman is Lu Bu's wife, Lu Bu is about twenty-six years old this year, and that woman looks about twenty-four or five, which is very suitable.
Lu Bu listened to her words, but stopped, he didn't know that during the war, especially in this situation of carrying the military family to evacuate, it is easy for people to fish in troubled waters. The Liangzhou army has always been brutal and ferocious, it was a group of wolves when it was fighting, and it was also a group of wolves when it was robbed, and it could be robbed without distinguishing between the enemy and me. Only a figure like Dong Zhuo can suppress them, so Dong Zhuo's family can ensure safety, but he is different. He was originally a general of the state, and now all the people in the state are watching him act, if he leaves without permission, one will make the people in the team uneasy, and the other will ...... He has long been at odds with Hu Zhen, Li Dao, Yang Ding and others of the Liangzhou generals, if he leaves, then his wife's words are likely to come true, and when the time comes, those people can also say in front of Xiangguo's father-in-law that he left without permission and affect the morale of the army. Thinking of this, Lu Bu couldn't help but have some scruples, although he was worried about Ren Hong's safety, he really couldn't leave his post without permission.
"Elegant!"
Lu Bu summoned his generals: "I order you to lead a hundred cavalry, quickly turn the horse's head, and go to Luoyang to search for Ren Hong's whereabouts." ”
"This ...... The last will obey. ”
Gao Ya is obviously unwilling, at this time, it is clear that it is more than auspicious to go to Luoyang, and he has only seen that Ren Hong once, although he only knows that it is a beautiful girl, but if he really wants to find such a woman in the crowd, it is like looking for a needle in the bottom of the sea. But Lu Bu gave such an order, and his face was very ugly, and he couldn't disobey the general's order. Gao Ya led a hundred horsemen to turn their horses' heads and quickly rushed back, and after being a little far away from Lu Bu, he sighed: General Lu attaches so much importance to a mere woman, it is really difficult to achieve a big thing.
When Bai Ji saw Gao Ya's reluctant expression, she knew that she couldn't hope for this person. She thought to herself for a while, then turned back to Ah Chu and said, "Hong'er is missing, let's go find her together." ”
Ah Chu looked at her in a daze, never expecting that Bai Ji, who had just poked his head out of the carriage window, would suddenly come up with such a sentence: "Madam, what are you talking about?" ”
Bai Ji repeated: "Hong'er is missing, let's go find her together." Otherwise, if she falls into the hands of those rebels, she will surely die. ”
"Hong'er?" Ah Chu didn't expect Bai Ji to suddenly say anything about Ren Hong, she said suspiciously: "Madam, how did you know that she was missing?" ”
"Just now I heard a conversation between Lu Bu and his wife." Bai Ji pointed out the window, Ah Chu looked at it, it was hundreds of steps away, Bai Ji could actually hear clearly. However, this did not make Ah Chu suspicious, because when Bai Ji concealed her identity and took them around to fight, her ear power and eyesight were amazing.
"Hong'er is missing?" Ah Chu believed Bai Ji's words, "But, madam, now that the war is in chaos, you must not leave casually, if you want to find Hong'er, I can go, but Madame must not." ”
"Madame, you must not leave the group without permission." Hearing that Bai Ji was going to find someone in person, Long Li also became vigilant, she couldn't just watch Madame go to a dangerous place, besides, now Madame is still pregnant, and if there is a slight mistake, I am afraid that she will regret it.
However, Bai Ji's speed was quite fast, just when Ah Chu and Long Li were just alerted to her and wanted to pay attention to her, Bai Ji had already jumped out of the carriage, and then I don't know where a soldier actually snatched the rope leading the horse, just when the soldier was amazed by Bai Ji's appearance and froze in place, Bai Ji jumped up, turned over on the horse, and then walked away, the whole process happened almost instantly, so that Ah Chu and Long Li just got out of the carriage, and couldn't catch up at all.
"Ah, my horse!" The soldier was stunned for a moment before calling out, and it was usually a noblewoman who could get off the carriage, and he couldn't afford to provoke him, so even if he had a bow and arrow, he didn't dare to shoot at Bai Ji, who had already ridden away.
Ah Chu and Long Li hurriedly got off the carriage, they found two cavalrymen, asked them to dismount, the cavalry was naturally unwilling, but Ah Chu and Long Li slapped each other, knocked off the horse, and when the two of them landed, they saw that the two women had already run away on their horses.
"Someone has taken the horse!"
Now the troops are mixed, and the noise of one or two soldiers is nothing at all, so by the time Lu Bu knows about it, it has been a long time. But he didn't take it to heart, and it wasn't until he arrived at the flooded pond later that Yuan Cui woke up from the carriage, and only then did he know from Qinglu and other maids that Bai Ji was looking for someone, and she hurriedly conveyed the matter to Lu Bu, which scared Lu Bu into a cold sweat: If Bai Ji had a problem, Xiangguo would definitely not spare him, which forced Lu Bu to personally lead the army to the east.
Besides, Bai Ji rode her horse and whipped at that time, because she had left school with Sima, her riding skills were very exquisite, and it didn't take long for her to run out of the retreating team. Last year's great migration, forcing nearly a million people in the Luoyang area to go to Chang'an, at that time Dong Zhuojun was uncontrolled along the way, not only wantonly forcibly took the people's money, but also obscene wives and daughters, those who were obstructed, were killed on the spot, and some of the slower old and weak were whipped with whips, and countless people died in the middle of the road along the way, and they are still full of white bones, strange and desolate.
Bai Ji was not frightened by the miserable pile of white bones along the way, but her face showed a nervous look: it was already close to the area of Luoyang, and Sun Jianjun had already entered Luoyang at this time, although there were still sporadic battles nearby, but Dong Zhuojun, who stayed here, was probably just the troops behind the palace, and the purpose was just to delay Sun Jianjun and make time for retreat.
Relying on her excellent eyesight and hearing, Bai Ji tried her best to avoid encounters along the way, and when she came to the ruined city of Luoyang, she found a secluded place to tie her horse and walked into the city. Luoyang was the most prosperous city in the Han Dynasty at that time, even if it was burned to ruins, there were still ruins of buildings everywhere, plus at this time, Sun Jianjun had just entered Luoyang, and he had not completely controlled the main roads, and the battles were one after another, Bai Ji walked all the way, hiding all the way, and the clothes on her body were already tattered at this time, stained with mud and filth, and it was easy to hide.
Finally walked to the mansion where Lu Bu lived before, but I didn't expect that this place had been controlled by Sun Jianjun, Bai Ji hid in a remnant wall outside the mansion, she took a closer look: There are only dozens of soldiers here, probably searching inside, Sun Jian's military horse has entered the city for less than half a day, this time the search should only be a rough look to see if there are more than ten Dong Zhuojun hiding, so Bai Ji secretly estimated to herself: If Hong'er is still in the mansion, with her understanding of the inside for more than a year...... Probably won't be found out right away.
In fact—
When Sun Jianjun attacked Lu Bu's mansion, there were only a few old women left who had not had time to escape, they were the subordinates of the mansion, because Ren Hong treated people very well on weekdays, they were worried that Ren Hong would be humiliated in the hands of the rebels, so they hurriedly let Ren Hong hide in the secret compartment of the mansion, which was a cabinet opposite the scroll on weekdays, and the curtain that blocked it was the same color as the wall. Ren Hong looked anxiously at Sun Jianjun, who had already entered the mansion, and she didn't want to hide alone: "What about you? This is quite a big dark grid, let's hide in it together. ”
"Miss Ren, you should hide." One of the oldest old women said to her, "If we are all hidden inside, it is difficult to ensure that we will not be searched by those soldiers, and we old women, even if we go out, they will know that we are the subordinates who have not had time to evacuate with the troops, and they will definitely not have any suspicions, so that the girl can survive this while." ”
"But ......" Ren Hong looked at them worriedly: "What if they want to kill someone?" Let's hide together. ”
The old woman caressed Ren Hong's head lovingly: "The old woman is so old, and she has lived enough...... When the moth thieves (Yellow Turban Army) made a fuss, it was even louder than now, what else has not been seen? ”
"It's too late, girl, get in quickly!"
As she spoke, the old women hurriedly pushed Ren Hong into the dark grid, then pulled down the curtain of the same color as the wall, and pushed the bookshelf back to its original place. When more than a dozen soldiers entered the room, no one noticed that there was a secret compartment behind the bookshelf. Several old women shivered and fell to their knees begging for mercy.
"You guys! Who is it? ”
One of the captains at the head asked, pointing a spear at the old women.
"Master Hui, we are subordinates in General Lu's mansion, because General Lu has fled west, and he thinks we are old and have difficulty moving, so he left us."
"Are there any soldiers in this mansion?"
"They all fled, and only a few of us were left."
Wu Chang looked at them: they were dressed very ordinarily, their hands were full of calluses, and it seemed that they were indeed subordinates, and he was disappointed: he thought that he could capture something by entering such a mansion, even if he couldn't take Lu Bu's relatives, he could catch a few of his concubines and take them back as trophies to enjoy it.
“…… Forget it, the street further ahead here is the mansion of Dong Thief's subordinates, let's search a few more places, we will definitely be able to gain something, Lao Tzu doesn't believe it, in such a short period of a few days, that group of Xiliang soldiers can move all the treasures of women and children. ”
"Yes."
The captain led the soldiers to withdraw from the mansion, but looked at the old women and said to the two soldiers: "These old slaves may know something else, look at them, don't let people run away." ”
"Yes."
After the captain left with dozens of people, the two soldiers complained: "They went to rob treasures and women, and we have to guard these old women, it's really a bit of a back!" ”
"Dude, I said you weren't smart enough."
One of the soldiers winked at him, let him approach him, and whispered, "He told us to watch, do we have to watch honestly?" ”
"Brother, what do you mean?"
"Hey, hey......" The soldier glanced at a few old women, and then said viciously: "Let's kill them now, and then go to search other mansions, don't we have a chance to grab some treasure?" ”
"However, if Captain Wu is investigated......
"Dude, you're too stupid, let's just say that there are only two of them looking at us, and they want to resist, and then we will correct the Fa. Besides, we just entered the city today, and we are still fighting with the thief army everywhere, who will pursue this matter? ”
"......" the soldier muttered, "Good! ”
Then the two soldiers closed the door, and suddenly drew their weapons, and one dragged an old woman past her, and then looked at it with a knife......
"Ahh
Before the two old women could struggle, their heads were cut off with a knife, judging from the actions of these two people, they are worthy of being the elite under Sun Jian, but it is a pity that they are the same, except for the word utilitarian in their eyes, there is absolutely no sympathy for the innocent.
The other two old women hurriedly planned to escape, but the room was not big, and the door had been closed, and the two soldiers were agile, and caught them in a blink of an eye, and one of them immediately drew his knife and cut them down, and an old woman died instantly, leaving only the eldest woman, trembling as she looked at the two evil ghosts with blades in their hands, the blades were full of red blood, because they had just been stained, and a drop of blood fell to the ground, blooming a little bit of blood, this scene of fear was suffocating.
"Old woman, if you can tell where there are treasures around here, or where there are Dong thief's relatives who haven't had time to escape, our buddies will spare your life."
The soldier grinned sinisterly.
"The old slave really doesn't know...... Ask the military master to spare his life! ”
"Oh...... I think you're an old minion, and you certainly don't know. ”
The soldier sighed softly, and slashed down, and the old woman's head flew out, and blood splattered all over the ground.
"Ahh
There is also a slit in the dark grid, which is specially designed for people hiding inside to see the situation outside, but the gap is too small and the field of vision is limited. When the two soldiers were killing people just now, Ren Hong hadn't seen it clearly, until the old woman's head flew out, and she happened to see it, she vaguely heard the old woman say "I don't know" in order to protect her, and when she saw such a bloody head again, she couldn't help but cry out because her heart was full of guilt and sadness.
"Who?" Although Ren Hong's cry was not loud, her soft voice was very obvious, and the two soldiers immediately heard it:
"Dude, did you hear that? In this room...... Looks like there's a young girl hiding there? ”
A soldier spoke, a grim and obscene smile on his face. (To be continued.) )
