Chapter 24: Bait

After the three of them were taken and escorted away, Shen Qiuzhi looked at the goods, glanced around, pulled the reins, and the horse walked towards the boundary where Su Fu was hiding. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Come out!" Shen Qiuzhi glanced at Su Fu's hiding place.

Su Fu knew that he saw him, so he walked out from behind the boulder where he was hiding, and lowered his eyebrows as if he was timid.

"What are you doing?"

Shen Qiuzhi opened his mouth to ask, and just after he finished speaking, he saw the steward staggering down from the mountain forest, his clothes were scraped from the branches and scraped a few times, looking embarrassed.

The steward came down to salute, "The little one is the steward of the convoy." ”

Shen Qiu knew that the steward was coming down, so he no longer paid attention to Su Fu, and said directly, "Go and check the number of casualties, and go back to Changle Mansion with the goods!" ”

Hearing this, Chang Steward shook his head, "Since the small one will not die in a big disaster, this thing ordered by the owner must be done." ”

Shen Qiuzhi heard this, but he sneered, pointed to an officer and soldier, and went to open the boxes on the carriage one by one.

The steward did not know what to do, but he did not dare to stop him, so he walked with the remaining guards and men to the side of the carriage with him, and looked at the box that the officer had opened.

There was a sigh around, because it was empty, and nothing was installed.

Su Fu paused, could it be that those thieves knew that the box was empty, so they would kill them?

But when the thief came, he only glanced at the box, but did not touch it, and did not necessarily know that the box was empty.

Chang Steward broke out in a cold sweat and explained to Shen Qiuzhi, "The little one doesn't know why this is the case, and the little one immediately set off for Changle Mansion." ”

Without goods, what reason is there to go to Khitan?

Shen Qiuzhi didn't pay attention to them anymore, turned the horse's head and was about to leave.

Su Fu paused for a moment, but still said loudly, "There should be thieves guarding the other end of the mountain forest, so that someone went and returned, saying that someone was killed at that end." ”

Shen Qiuzhi turned his head and glanced at Su Fu deeply, seeing the eyes covered by the white veil, but suddenly there was a trace of interest, but his face did not show it, "If I waited for you to report, the thief would have fled to the ends of the earth." ”

With the intention of sneaking down, he had already sent someone over to capture him.

He rode a horse, his robe floated up, but from a distance, he looked like an immortal, drifting away.

Steward Chang looked at the empty box, his eyes were a little scattered, and after a long time, he could say, "This is using us as bait!" ”

After Su Fu heard this, his mouth suddenly opened.

This empty box must have been instructed by Yao Shaohua, the last time the convoy was robbed, there shouldn't have been so much tea in the warehouse, no wonder she always felt that something was wrong when she saw this box from the beginning.

Before the murder case in Jianzhou was solved, he sent people to Khitan, which can be seen to lead this thief to be fooled.

But how could he be sure that the thief would be fooled?

It stands to reason that after the thieves succeeded, they did not dare to attack them anymore, but this group of thieves is obviously different, not only disdainful of the goods, but also kill them, like fun, and do not pursue a quick solution.

This gang of thieves is even more weird.

The steward counted the last number, and there were seven guards left, and only Su Fu, Ruan Tian and Yuan Da were the only three people who came with him.

The loss of only five people is already a blessing in misfortune.

I simply settled down, turned around the convoy, and headed towards Changle Mansion.

In Changle Mansion, the Yao family compound.

When the news of the convoy came from Jianzhou, Yao Shaohua was sitting in the study, with no joy or sadness on his face.

After a while, the maidservant knocked on the door of the study, walked in with her head bowed, and whispered, "Young master, the master called you to the front hall for dinner." ”

She raised her head slightly, looking at Yao Shaohua, who was sitting firmly on the top seat, the shyness on her face was unobstructed, her eyebrows were rolling, and her gaze was repulsive.

Yao Shaohua got up, stood beside the servant girl, stretched out his hand to lift her chin, the servant girl's eyelashes trembled slightly, her lips bit lightly, and she was in a merry posture.

Yao Shaohua hooked his lips slightly, the tails of his eyes were lightly raised, and he lowered his head, seeing that his lips were about to meet, but he was caught off guard by a sound, and bright red fingerprints appeared on the maid's face.

She looked up with surprise on her face, and saw Yao Shaohua, who still had **** in her eyes, her eyes were clear at the moment, and she seemed to be smiling, "Do you know why the original maid next to me was sold to the house?" ”

The servant girl covered her face and shook her head with tears in her eyes.

"She seduced me like that, and in a fit of rage, I stabbed her with a dagger." Yao Shaohua's tone was flat, but it shocked the maidservant, and she couldn't care about the painful cheeks, and quickly knelt down, "Young master spare your life, young master spare your life." ”

"Go to the steward and receive the punishment."

Yao Shaohua put down this sentence and walked past the maidservant.

The servant girl was pardoned, but she did not know that what awaited her from the steward was a cup of poisoned wine.

Yao Zhengqi sat in the main hall, and when he saw Yao Shaohua coming over unhurriedly, his heart tightened slightly.

Yao Shaohua, as usual, bowed to Yao Zhengqi and called his father, and then sat down, his movements were like flowing water, full of luxury, even if he chewed something, there was no sound.

Yao Zhengqi wanted to say something, but it can be seen that Yao Shaohua looks like this, so he has to stop talking.

Yao Shaohua just didn't see it, tasted two bites of each dish, and finally took the handkerchief, carried his mouth, and put it aside, then looked at Yao Zhengqi, "Father has something to say, might as well say it directly?" ”

Since Yao Shaohua changed his appearance and took over the family business, he rarely dined with Yao Zhengqi again.

Yao Zhengqi put down the dishes and chopsticks, and his face was pleasant, "Chao'er." ”

Fang called a sentence, but saw Yao Shaohua's sharp eyes and regret in his heart, so he changed his words, "Shaohua." ”

"You have been crowned for two years now, and you see that there is no one around you to serve, which makes your father very worried, these days, your mother has found a few daughters from several families for you, and her talent and conduct are quite good."

Yao Zhengqi's voice fell, and he heard Yao Shaohua sneer, "Has my father forgotten?" My mother has long since died. ”

The atmosphere instantly became embarrassing, Yao Shaohua's mother died in childbirth when she gave birth to him, but in half a year, Yao Zhengqi welcomed a steproom into the door, and the steproom was not a kind-hearted person, raising Yao Shaohua into a gentleman who didn't know what to do.

If he hadn't changed his personality later, I'm afraid that this Yao family's property could only be handed over to the son born by the stepfamily.

"Shaohua, if you don't like her, you can decide the marriage yourself." Yao Zhengqi said this, and he stopped there.

Yao Shaohua nodded, stood up, and walked out of the main hall.

In the past, the head of the Yao family, who covered the sky with one hand, was defeated in front of his son.

He is not in a hurry for Yao Shaohua to get married, but Yao Shaohua doesn't even have a room now, and people outside don't think it's a big deal to see the excitement, and there are rumors and everything.

It's not that he doesn't lift it, it's that he likes men.

Can he not know his own son? He must have been the father and broke his son's heart.
