Chapter 23: Collusion between Officials and Dealers
"Young Master Tang, it's no good!" Uncle Sun hurriedly ran into the guest hall.
"What's wrong?" At this time, Tang Yunchen was leisurely sipping the tribute tea brought from the capital.
"Did Miss go out in the morning? I had just returned from a trip to the market with some girls, and I met a coachman at the door, and he said...... He said Miss was lost! Uncle Sun was so anxious that he didn't know what to do, this prison disaster had just passed, and it was really a disaster.
"What!" Tang Yunchen threw down the teacup in his hand and stood up, "Miss is not an item, how can she lose it?" What about Mrs. Che? Take me to him. Tang Yunchen was angry and anxious, this good person could be lost, so he had to skin this coachman.
"Well, it's at the door!" Uncle Sun brought Tang Yunchen to the door and pointed to a middle-aged man who was surrounded by several girls not far away.
"What's going on?" Tang Yunchen frowned, and suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.
"Where is Sister Yi going early in the morning?" Before the coachman could speak, Yu Niang asked first.
"Yes, I just got out of prison, and I don't rest...... I don't know what's going on! Bi'er also chattered, and then the crowd began to gossip.
"Let's all be quiet, we're all in a hurry, but we have to let the coachman finish speaking!" Uncle Sun was already in a hurry, and his head was even more confused.
"What the hell is going on, you tell me in detail!" Tang Yunchen walked up to the coachman and asked.
"That's right, in the morning I took the two girls to a trip to Wusong Mountain in the plain town west of Donou, because the mountain is a garrison place, and no one is allowed to approach, so I waited for them at the foot of the mountain, and after about two or three hours, they went down the mountain, and on the way back, when we drove to the vicinity of Ping'an Town, the carriage broke down, and I discussed with the girls that I would go to the town to repair the car, and they would eat at the inn, and wait for Yi to repair the carriage, and then go to pick them up." The coachman frowned, "But when I repaired the carriage and went to the inn to pick them up, the door of the inn was closed, I couldn't open it, there were still people eating just now, such a big inn said it was closed, I felt that something was wrong, so I hurried back to report." ”
"It's not good, it may be a black shop, what's that inn called?" Tang Yunchen's face changed.
"It seems to be...... Oh, by the way, it's called the Yuzhuang Inn, hey, it's all my fault, I've heard that the area of Ping'an Town is unstable, and there are often robberies of people and girls on weekdays, and the situation of pit passers-by happens...... Alas! The coachman sighed in frustration.
The crowd began to make an uproar again.
"Don't argue, everyone, I'll immediately bring a team of people over, Yu Niang and Bi'er will go with me, and the others will stay to take care of the villa and inn business." After Tang Yunchen made the arrangement, he immediately ordered his subordinates to prepare horses, and after a while, he led some people straight to Ping'an Town.
At this time, Zhiyi slowly woke up from her slumber.
Where is this? It was dim in front of her, Zhiyi shook her head, and her already heavy head was shaken so painfully, but the pain made her wake up all of a sudden.
There are cold stone walls on three sides, and the ground is full of gravel and sand, and the light from the other side, faintly shining in, it seems to be a cave!
Zhiyi fixed her eyes and found that there were several young girls tied up around her, and as soon as she wanted to get up, she fell to the ground, and she suddenly realized that she was also tied up.
It's not good, is this Feng Sanniang a human trafficker? That's right, the feast!
"Feast...... Banquet ......" Zhiyi called.
"Miss...... I...... I'm here! A figure in the corner was slowly settling up. What's the matter, miss, where is this? She only remembered that Feng Sanniang instructed several big men to tie her up, and Zhiyi on the side was about to use the flying needle secret weapon to take her out, but unexpectedly, Xiao Er on the side sprinkled a pile of white powder, and then lost consciousness.
"Don't worry, the third brother will come to save us!" These little tricks of the thieves are difficult for the third brother.
"Well, miss, are you hurt?" Yan'er slowly moved to Zhiyi's side.
"It's okay! Miss's life is great! Zhiyi smiled.
"This young lady can still laugh!" A young woman next to her, who was also tied, looked surprised, seeing that her dress was close to Dongou clothing, she should be a native of Ping'an Town.
"No matter how big the danger is, it's better to face it with a smile than to cry!" Zhiyi smiled self-deprecatingly again.
"The girl's bearing is extraordinary, she looks like a person from the capital, she must be the daughter of a big family, how did she come to this poor country?" The young woman said again.
"It's a long story! By the way, how did you get caught, and how long have you been caught? Zhiyi suddenly thought about what www.biquge.info Biquge.
"I'm from Ping'an Town, my name is Ah Miao, some of them are ordinary people from the villages around Ping'an Town, and a few are outsiders like you, and we've been locked up here for two or three days!" Ah Miao sighed helplessly, her mood seemed to calm down a little, not as nervous as when she was first arrested.
"Why is this Feng Sanniang arresting so many women?" Zhiyi suddenly had a bad premonition.
"Feng Sanniang robbed the people's girls in Ping'an Town, ran rampant and domineering, and did all kinds of evil, I heard that the robbed women will be sent to ......" Ah Miao said and choked up.
"Where?" The banquet also became nervous.
"Sent to a brothel in a distant city, I don't know exactly which city! Not only did they rob other people's property, but they also sold people to earn black money, and these people who lost their conscience ...... "Ah Miao control zhì couldn't help but sob.
"I see!" Zhiyi thought to herself, no wonder this little county lord actually had such a lot of wealth, I really don't know how many hurtful things he has done.
"What are you yelling about?! Shut up for me, hurry up and eat, eat well, endure for another day, and I'll send you to live a good life tomorrow, hahaha......" A reckless man with a hateful face threw a few steamed buns over, and helped everyone loosen their ties, and then laughed and walked away.
Tomorrow? When they heard this, they all began to cry.
At this time, a woman suddenly stood up and slammed straight into the stone next to her, "Even if I die, I can't let you ruin your innocence!" ”
Bang, before others had time to react, the woman had already fainted to death on the ground, and the reckless man at the entrance of the cave heard the sound and came in to take a look, and scolded fiercely, "Stinky **, toast and don't eat and drink!" ”
After the reckless man finished scolding, he called the guards at the entrance of the cave to come and help drag the woman on the ground out.
"Miss, what should I do?" Yan'er also cried, this morning was fine, why did this happen suddenly!
"Tomorrow! Time is too short, the third brother and they may not be able to find here in a hurry, and when we are sent out, it will be troublesome, and we will probably have a hard time getting out by then. Zhiyi sighed slightly, "I hope the third brother can find out the mark I left as soon as possible!" ”
