Chapter 200: Where Have You Been?
The food outside the house was already cold, and Bai Li'er appeared in the hall with her hair draped. She turned around and spat at the door www.biquge.info muttered something in her mouth, and then slowly walked outside with her waist on her back.
There was not much time, and a faint light reflected in a room next to Du Xin's study. No matter how faint it is, it is still very conspicuous in the dark night. Soon, the lights went out, and Li'er reappeared in the hall.
She had just taken a few steps when she suddenly screamed "ah" in fright. Her cry was short, and she soon stopped, because she could see clearly the person sitting in the dark, it was the man Du Xin who was still in bed with her.
Li Er's voice quickly softened, and she asked sweetly, "Why did the general get up?" ”
Du Xin just turned over and found that the people around him were gone, so he patted his empty belly again, got up and prepared to eat. As soon as he sat down at the table, he saw Li Er smearing in, and before he could speak, he shouted first.
Du Xin was startled by her cry and said unhappily: "Where have you been?" ”
Li Er heard the annoyance in Du Xin's voice, she saw the cold food on the table, and hurriedly said carefully: "The concubine is hungry, I want to get up and eat something." But the food was cold, and the concubine wanted to go out and see if she could find a few snacks. Why did the general get up too? But hungry too? The concubine went to inform the kitchen of the hot dishes and hot meals. ”
Du Xin didn't pursue it, he looked up at the dark night outside the window, waved his hand and said, "Forget it, take a few pieces of dim sum to satisfy your hunger." It's so late, don't toss anymore. ”
Li Er nodded hurriedly, took out a box of dim sum from a standing cabinet next to her, and put it in front of Du Xin.
Du Xin was a little puzzled how she could take a snack from her cabinet, didn't she just go out to find a snack to eat, but she didn't find it? But he was a big man, and he never asked about these little things, and these thoughts only flashed in his mind. He picked up a piece of dim sum and put it in his mouth, swallowed the herbal tea next to him, ate a few more pieces, and went back to bed.
Nothing was said all night. Early the next morning, Du Xin woke up and saw that the woman next to him was still there, so he took it into his arms and warmed it up, until the other party was sweating profusely and panting, and then let go of his hand.
Du Xin simply cleaned himself up, and then instructed the maid outside the door to prepare hot water and carry it in, and then went to the study next door.
Those maids have long been accustomed to this situation of asking for hot water from time to time, so the hot water in the small kitchen is always warm. Seeing that the generals had gone out, but the hostess hadn't come out yet, she had a number in her heart, and Zhang Luo went to prepare the hot water in the bathtub.
Du Xin entered the study, opened the drawer, and prepared to take out the marching map drawn up yesterday. He had to take advantage of the fact that before he sent out his troops, he had to arrange his manpower well. He opened the drawer on the left, and there were only a few old letters in the drawer, but the marching map was missing.
Du was shocked, he obviously put the marching map here yesterday, how could it be gone? He hurriedly pulled out the drawer on the right to look for it. Luckily, the marching map was on the top floor, and it was placed a little crookedly.
Du Xin was a little puzzled, his habit was to put things on the left side, so he would open the left drawer first. He took the drawings and compared them left and right, and he was a little unsure, could he have remembered the wrong place? Or has this picture been touched? He turned around and checked the study again, but found nothing unusual, so he had to suppress his doubts and start dealing with military affairs.
The next day, the four princes, Shenweihou and Du Xin led an army of 100,000 and quietly went to Dongying, preparing to set off from Dongying and rush to Shanhaiguan by sea.
In the evening of the same day, a figure quietly walked out of the corner gate of Du Xin's mansion. The man was slightly thin, dressed as a steward of the Du Mansion, and went to the east of the city alone.
Liaocheng is the capital of Northwest County, the government is located in the east of the city, and the prison is next to the yamen. In addition to the ordinary prisoners, there is also a separate cell for some important people. And Jebe, the son of the jade-faced prince who was captured by Jiang Moyan and them, was imprisoned there.
When the man arrived near the prison, he looked left and right, and saw that although this place was in a prosperous area, because it was a heavy prison cell, people avoided it intentionally or unintentionally, so it was very deserted. He climbed over the wall and crept to the door of the cell. At this time, it was the time for the guards to eat and change the guard, and there were not many people. He counted the guards at the door, and then took a few steps forward.
"What people, stop! The prison is heavy, you can't get close, and you don't leave quickly? A big-mouthed guard, who had just finished eating, came out with his teeth picked and stopped him.
The man stopped, took out a token of Du Xin from his bosom and held it up in front of the other party, and said in an arrogant tone: "I am the steward of Du Mansion, and I am ordered by the general of my family to meet the captive of the Northern Underworld. Still not released? ”
The guard saw the token that was about to be pasted on his face, and sure enough, it was the token of Du Fu. He hurriedly stepped back and got out of the way. In this Liaocheng, if you want to say that the token of this Du Mansion is more effective than the token of the old man.
The man was not polite, swaggered into the door of the prison, and went inside. As soon as I reached the door, I saw two cell heads sitting and chatting next to the torture instruments hanging all over the wall. Seeing someone enter, one of the donkey-faced cell bosses stood up and walked over.
The guard said, "This is the steward of Du Mansion, who has been ordered by the general to meet the captive of the Northern Underworld. ”
The cell boss agreed again and again, nodded and accompanied him inside.
The place of the cell was dark and damp, and the musty smell that had not seen the light of day for a long time choked the man's nose. The two of them walked all the way to the innermost point before they saw a separate cell. Through the thick iron railing, I saw a pile of straw on a broken bed inside. If it weren't for the fact that the shape of the straw was a bit humanoid, I really didn't know that there was a person buried there.
The comer's brows furrowed slightly, and he hurriedly let go, turned around and asked the cell head, "How are the people?" It's not going to die, is it? ”
The cell boss hurriedly said: "Look at what you said, without the order of the superior, where can people die easily?" Isn't that a good man? The cell boss shouted into the cell as he spoke, "Hey, get up, do you hear me?" Don't play dead! ”
The cell boss shouted a few times, but there was no movement in it. Seeing that no one responded, the cell boss couldn't hold back his face, and said with a smile: "Maybe the child is asleep, I'll call him up." ”
Someone stopped him and shouted, "Open the cell door and go in to see if you are dead?" ”
The cell boss was also a little vague by what he said, and while continuing to shout and curse, he untied the key from his waist and opened the cell door.
The cell leader entered the cell door with his front feet, and the man followed with his hind feet, lifted the weeds on the bed, and saw a face that was so thin that it was out of shape.
It seems that the face has not been washed for a month, and the dirt is completely unrecognizable, let alone any complexion.
