Chapter 159: Taking advantage of the rain to rob

PS: Bow and thank: mottled tree shadows obliquely reflected, the best future, don't care also, graceful peace and happiness, thank you for the precious monthly pass of the little fox flying knife. Thank you!

*————————————**————————**

"The wedding date of Little Lady Xie is scheduled for the ninth day of the first month of next month."

Although there are not many people in the back alley, just in case, Wu Da decided to make a long story short: "The second group of messengers is not three, but four." This man went to the thatched house halfway, and when he came out, he couldn't find his three companions, so he chased them all the way to Xindu. ”

Catch up with Xindu...... Zhao Wei knew that the Xie family had sent someone to deliver the letter earlier, but fortunately, the two groups of people who stopped had already made it look like they had encountered robbers, so there was nothing to worry about.

The question is...... On the ninth day of the next month, there will be eleven days from now on.

It is said that at this time, the heavy rain is pouring, and the muddy water on the road almost does not cover half of the horse's legs, even if the weather is clear and the road is flat, the ninth prince will not be able to come back in time.

What's more, these three people have not returned for more than 20 days, and if this matter is not too tricky, it is very likely that something will go wrong.

Moreover, not only Yuanshan and Mengshen saw that the ninth prince had a heart for Xie Jiang, and he also saw that he was not a whim for Xie Jiang, but also a ...... Look at it very seriously.

Thinking of the ruthlessness of this person when he was angry, Yu Chi's eyes flashed, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Here is handed over to the iron thorn first, and I will go to Xindu." ”

This kind of "big matter" can only be handed over to Jiu Gongzi to deal with personally.

The rain trickled down the edges of the bamboo hats, and the cuffs of the big shoulders were already damp. Raising his hand to wipe his face, Wu Da nodded and said, "Well, that's very good." After speaking, he was about to turn around, but suddenly he turned back and asked, "When to leave, it is better to make plans earlier?" ”

"It's a matter of no sooner rather than later." He leaned out and patted the man on the shoulder, and said in a deep voice, "I'll prepare the horse to go later." Now there is no trace of Huo Injury, and the situation is very bad. You should guard Xie Niangzi and wait for the son to come back. ”

Wu Da half turned sideways and bowed his hand slightly, and then ran into the depths of the alley.

The rain fell sharply, and the eaves almost became a curtain of water. Close the sash of the window with delay. After a moment's thought, he turned around and walked to his dwelling, took a long knife, a bow case, and a quiver, and passed in front of the hall. I took two more pieces of white bread left over from breakfast.

As soon as he put it properly, he left a piece of paper with the iron thorn to explain the reason for the whereabouts, and the man rode out of the back alley and galloped out of the city gate along the long street.

The sky is getting dark, and the sound of rain is "whooshing". The hills and barren trees are all shrouded in a mist.

He raised his hand and wiped his face, calculating that it had been nearly five or six hours from the time it had been to the end of the night, and he was afraid that he had traveled nearly 100 miles. Then he took the reins, and the horse slowed down, and then he heard a "buzz".

Actions are one step faster than thoughts, and he bows his head and leans forward, "Whew! A scream, an arrow passed by his ears. After an arrow, "Whew! Shout! Shout! ……。 "Countless arrows? Shot from the wind and rain.

In the rain and fog, he only heard someone shouting loudly, "Stop! Fast...... The Overseers are ....... "And there was a lot of wind and rain around him. Or the rain of arrows, he couldn't tell the difference.

At this time, the rain in Xindu is slightly lighter.

The mansion of Zhao Jun, the third division, is on the South Street of the capital.

At dusk, the two of them walked out of the gate of Zhao's mansion one after the other. The one in front was dressed in a pale gray prismatic robe, with a scarf of the same color on his head, and the one in the back was wearing a blue over-the-knee shirt, holding a carved wooden box of red sandalwood in one hand and a linen umbrella in the other.

"Steward, what's so urgent? Going out in the rain? The short-shirted servant was a little short, and the steward at the front walked with his head straight, and the man struggled to stand on his tiptoes while stretching out his arms for an umbrella.

"It's verbose. Send a wedding sticker to Lord Ji's house, is there less reward? Take advantage of the light rain and walk quickly. The steward reprimanded the short servant in a loud voice, and hurried forward with the hem of his robe.

"That's not going to the inner city." The servant glanced at the steward's face and muttered in a small voice, "Why doesn't the chief steward use a carriage?" ”

This man is short and short-legged, and he has to hold his arms up for an umbrella. You have to be careful about the box in your hand, and you can't keep up with it.

The chief steward had no choice but to slow down his steps, and leaned at the servant and said, "To send out six or seven hundred invitations within two days, the long way is to use a carriage, and these adults in the city can only go on foot." Speaking of this, he sighed, "Madame was still ...... last night Alas!. After saying half a while, he sighed again, "Don't say it, let's go." ”

At this time, the twilight is approaching, and the streets are full of cars and pedestrians, and not even a wild dog can be seen. As soon as the two men turned the corner of the street, the sound of horses' hooves like the wind behind them came one after another, and the chief steward and the servant had no time to turn back, and a ball of burlap bags fell under their hoods, and the two people only shouted: "Hmm! ,...... "There are thieves!" There was a pain in the neck, and the two of them wilted in an instant.

The two men in black were one by one, and they lifted the people up and put them on the back of the horse, and the slightly thin man smiled and said, "I don't know how many people he "robbed"? ”

"Well, those people went outside the city, so naturally they didn't have to wait for me to wait for the rabbit." The tall man tucked the sandalwood box into the bag, swept his eyes around, and said in a low voice: "Let's go, isn't there another one who went to Xicheng?" Don't be too late. ”

In the neighing sound of the "driving" horse, the two horses came like a wind, and disappeared into the vast rain like a wind.

On this day, no one from the Zhao Mansion to the chief steward and the grandmother who led the girl out to go shopping, returned home.

The outer city of the new capital.

The two supporters chatted enough under the eaves, and one patted the water droplets splashing on his shoulder, and sighed as if he was quite "satisfied": "Let's go, take another round, just in time to catch up with the bud kitchen to start eating." ”

The other squinted his eyes and glanced into the room, then turned around and pulled the former: "Brother and brother have grown a lot of knowledge." I heard Zhou Da say that there is a wine shop in the inner city where the meat is very delicious, let's go, today my brother invites my brother to have a drink. ”

Seeing the two of them turning around the corner, Meng Shen quietly closed the window. The rain was pouring outside the house, and after waiting for a while, he made sure that the two guards had gone far, so he closed the door and walked Dada across the wooden bridge to find the ninth son.

Because Uncle Qiang ordered him to retreat ten zhang, there was no shadow of half a person in front of and behind the bamboo house except for the bushes and flowers. Meng Shen raised his hand and closed the sackcloth umbrella, turned upside down and "filed" twice on the door with the handle of the umbrella.

"Shh Yuanshan opened the door, first raised his palm to make a silent gesture, and then looked back a few times, and then whispered: "Last night, Gongzi copied most of the Analects, and he went to bed until dawn." Come in, come in and say. With that, he turned sideways.

Dream sank into the bamboo house, and when the door of the house was closed in the distant mountains, he leaned up and muttered: "The two supporters just now are chatting "idle" under the eaves, if you report these to the son, you want to be able to rest tonight. ”

For several nights, the ninth prince practiced painting and copying books, and returned until dawn, and the minds of Yuanshan and Mengshen were dizzy, and they didn't dare to persuade him. At this time, if there is good news to "stimulate, stimulate", ...... Yuanshan's eyes lit up instantly, and he opened his mouth and just asked the word "what's the matter...... ”

Behind the bamboo screen, Jiugongzi's low-alcohol and lazy voice, as if it was still foggy and sleepy: "Well, I'm talking back closely." ”

Dream Shen made a "Look" to the distant mountains! Look! When he mentioned this, he immediately had a spirit. Little eyes. When he stopped his eyes, he immediately lowered his eyebrows and raised his feet behind the screen. The distant mountains pouted, and they also learned that this person followed behind without making a sound.

"Well, pour some tea." Jiu Gongzi held his right hand against his lips and yawned leisurely. Meng Shen inadvertently raised his eyes and looked at it, and his heart suddenly jumped "don't".
