Chapter XXIX
The three peasant households were indeed spies sent by the Hu people, and one of them died, and the other two were tied up and thrown aside.
Fu Zheng asked a few words, but the two of them didn't speak, and they looked loyal and didn't know whether to take poison or bite their tongues to commit suicide. Fu Zheng ordered the soldiers to pry their mouths open with expressionless faces, and the two of them screamed again, and they didn't know what they were calling.
No one understood.
Fu Zheng rolled his eyes coldly, his gaze fell on one of the carriages, paused, and he stepped forward and asked, "Third girl, do you know the words of the Hu people?" ”
In the car, Mei Ru wrinkled her eyebrows and sighed that the situation was really bad.
Fu Zheng is the most careful, and what he did just now will definitely not escape his eyes......
It's really hard to ride a tiger now.
After settling down, Mei Ru replied: "Your Highness is joking, Mei Ru doesn't know anything about Hu people. ”
Fu Zheng replied politely, and said to Mai Mang: "The third girl said this very well, since she doesn't know it, then she must know some?" ”
This person's voice is cold, always oppressive, and will force her!
Mei Ru was slightly annoyed, she didn't know that this person could say so much......
Fu Zheng asked outside the car again: "Third girl, now that you have caught two spies, it is a matter of importance, and you just stand by and watch?" ”
Really roasted her on the fire......
Meng Yunlan was stunned when she heard this, and then she said suspiciously: "Follow the rules, when will you do this?" ”
Mei Ru became more and more annoyed, and she said, "Where will I be? He said to Fu Zheng outside: "Your Highness, since the matter is important, why don't you send it back to the barracks quickly?" What is it to embarrass me? ”
Outside, Fu Zheng didn't speak, for a long time, he only arched his hand and said: "Third girl, it's this king who is abrupt." ”
With that, he glanced at the slightly moving curtain of the car, and then turned his head and ordered the soldier a few words.
A few accompanying soldiers escorted the two spies back to the camp, while the rest continued to Pingliang City.
The city of Pingliang is also extremely desolate, and before the sun sets, there is no one in sight in the city, and every household is closed. The carriage was walking in the streets, only to feel more and more deserted.
The group still stopped at the post house.
The prefect of Pingliang and other officials were already there, and when they saw Fu Zheng and the others, they all bowed and said: "I don't know that the two highnesses are coming, it's really ......."
Fu Zheng waved his hand and stopped his words: "Pingliang Mansion is in an eventful time, you don't need to move the people to see this king." ”
Taking advantage of Fu Zheng's being stopped, Mei Ru hurriedly slipped into the post house, really afraid that this person would ask more.
I heard the prefect say again: "Your Highness, now that you have prepared some thin wine, please ask Your Highness to deign to move." ”
"If you get it, you don't need to ask for thin wine." Fu Zheng bowed slightly, turned around and entered the post house.
The remaining officials looked at each other.
Pingliang Mansion is already remote, and the post house here is much simpler than that in Zhuozhou, but there are a few clean rooms and a small stove in the back. The cook made a few bowls of gnocchi at night, as well as the cured meat left over from the road, cut into small cubes, and sprinkled with chopped green onions, which smelled very fragrant.
Mei Ru was a little wrong today, she asked Jingqin to go to Xiao Qiao's place and say a word, just to stay in her room and eat.
The gnocchi was very fragrant, but Mei Ru took a bite and didn't have much appetite to move the chopsticks again.
It's really not like her usual.
Seeing this, Jingqin couldn't help but worry: "Girl, but you're not feeling well?" Eating again? ”
Mei Ru shook her head.
It's not that she's not feeling well, but she's feeling uncomfortable, and there's no one to talk to......
Mei Ru sighed, and ordered Jingqin to find someone to inquire about Mei Xiang's whereabouts. Thinking of her brother, Mei Ru had an even more headache.
She didn't want to go out at all now, for fear that if she didn't look up and look down, she would meet Fu Zheng, and she was even more afraid that he would ask about the road again.
Not long after, Jingqin came back from inquiring about Mei Xiang's news, saying that the uncle was lying in a medical center in the city now.
"Doctorate?" Mei Ru muttered and repeated, and couldn't help but be anxious and worried, thinking about going and taking a look.
As a result, she had to go out anyway.
Mei Ru went to talk to Xiao Qiao. Xiao Qiao's was also big-hearted, so he only sent a coachman to her. However, her aunt has always behaved so shockingly, and Mei Ru doesn't care.
The master and servant hurriedly rushed to the medical hall in Yicheng's mouth. The clinker medical hall had already fallen into the bolt, and even though Jingqin had been shouting outside for a long time, no one came to open it. It was pitch black inside, and it didn't look like anyone was there at all.
Mei Ru was in a hurry, but now in the dead of night, she and Jingqin were alone and could only come back tomorrow.
"Let's go back to the inn." Mei Ru commanded wearily.
The post house was also deserted, and when the master and servant walked in, their footsteps stagnated at the same time.
Jingqin stammered and said, "Your Highness, Your Highness." - Jingqin has always been afraid of this cold-faced and cold-hearted Yan King.
Fu Zheng didn't come over, he just stood there, and commanded with a solemn expression: "This king will say a few words to your girl." ”
Mei Ru couldn't help frowning.
She always can't hide from what should come, she knows it, but isn't this person too ......
"I don't know what happened to Your Highness?" Mei Ru bowed from afar, and her tone was very displeased.
Fu Zheng asked lightly: "Third girl, are you still pretending to be the king?" ”
Hearing this, Mei Ru suddenly stopped answering, just to pretend with him.
It's rare that Fu Zheng didn't get angry, he smiled lightly, and said, "It's still today's business, bother the girl to go to the camp with this king." ”
Mei Ru naturally refused, and said with a slight annoyance: "Your Highness, isn't it difficult for you to be a strong man?" The soldiers in the battalion have been fighting with the Hu people for a long time, don't they know more than me, a boudoir woman? ”
Fu Zheng said: "In this case, why don't the three girls take this trip?" What are you afraid of? ”
Forced into such a situation by him, Mei Ru really has no way out. Sighing silently, she said, "Your Highness, since this is the case, Mei Ru will go this way." If I really don't understand, Your Highness, you can't embarrass me anymore. At the end, she looked at him, her bright peach blossom eyes full of anger.
"Of course!" Fu Zheng responded.
In the early morning of the next day, the two went to the barracks together, Fu Zheng rode a horse, and Mei Ru rode in a car.
The early morning in Pingliang Mansion was exceptionally cold, more than 30 miles away, the car curtain floated up from time to time, and the wind blew on the face like a knife. Jingqin prepared a hand stove, Mei Ru held it in her hand, and Fang felt warmer.
There was no one at all in the early morning, and the road became quieter and quieter, and the sound of Fu Zheng's horses' hooves was very brisk.
Mei Ru still couldn't help but sigh heavily.
When she arrived at the camp outside the city, when Mei Ru leaned out and got out of the car, she was still so cold that she couldn't help shivering. She gathered her cloak and looked up, only to see that Fu Zheng had dismounted and stood tall in front. He was dressed in a big hat, standing in the wind, Xiao Xiao was solemn, and his eyebrows and eyes were clear.
He couldn't wait for her.
Mei Ru's heart was suffocated, and she hurriedly opened her eyes and followed Fu Zheng into the camp together.
The two of them went straight to the tent where the spies were being held. There were a lot of people inside, it seemed to be very noisy, Mei Ru was hesitating to go in, Fu Zheng raised his hand to stop her: "Three girls, slow down." ”
Mei Ru was puzzled and glanced at him.
Fu Zheng didn't speak, let alone explain, just stood quietly.
Mei Ru could only stand quietly to the side.
The wind blew over, blowing the earrings in her ears, and the small figure shook and swayed. Fu Zheng lowered his eyes, glanced down, and then retracted his gaze lightly.
Mei Ru didn't notice it, just quietly watched the movement inside.
It was probably an execution, and there was the sound of whipping, again and again, and the hands were very heavy, and from time to time there was a loud questioning sound. But the two spies didn't know what to say, and the questioner became more and more irritable: "Call Lao Tzu!" Hit them until they can talk! This is not enough, and scolded again: "What the hell! No one the fucking understands! It's all a bunch of idiots! ”
Fu Zheng lowered his eyes.
I saw Mei Ru with her head down, and the earrings didn't shake, standing there quietly, not knowing what she was thinking.
Fu Zheng asked coldly, "Third girl, do you understand?" ”
Mei Ru's body trembled, she raised her head tangledly, and her eyebrows frowned slightly.
Fu Zheng just looked at her with heavy eyes, his eyes were black, and the meaning was unknown.
Mei Ru's throat was a little astringent, and after a pause, she replied with difficulty: "Understand a little." ”
Rao is Fu Zheng guessed something, but when he heard her answer with his own ears, he was still stunned for a moment, and he glanced at Mei Ru deeply, and he said, "You come with this king." ”
