Chapter 350: The Game (First Update, Asking for a Monthly Pass)
The four or five men in white stood back to back, secretly complaining in their hearts.
Xie Dongli is just a civil official, how could he bring his daughter-in-law back to the door with so many guards?!
There are not only guards, but also ambush manpower!
The men in white looked at each other, wondering if they had been deceived......
Xie Dongli came to stand in front of the sedan chair with sleeves, and glanced at his little servant Ah Shun.
Ah Shun understood, crossed his waist and stepped forward, and said to these white-clothed people: "Who are you?" How dare you attack our vice-minister?! β
One of the people in white seemed to be the leader, sneered when he heard this, pointed a knife at the sedan chair with full sleeves, and said, "Deputy Prime Minister? Is your deputy a woman? β
This means that their goal is to make sleeves, and Xie Dongli is just ......
Ah Shun flashed in his heart, and secretly said that he really didn't know whether he was alive or dead, you have to admit that it was aimed at the fifth master of my family, and there may be a glimmer of life. But if you want to say that your target is Mrs. Fifth Master, I'm sorry, Fifth Master will make you die an ugly death!
"Tell me honestly, who sent you to do what you are doing in our Eastern Yuan Kingdom? Look at you guys dressed weirdly, aren't we from Dongyuan? Ah Shun walked around the four or five white-clothed people, touched his chin and asked thoughtfully.
The man in white was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "Since Lao Tzu is here, he never thought about going back alive!" Set Lao Tzu's words? - Dream on! β
Ah Shun coughed, stood still opposite them, stared at them and said, "You dare to lie to me!" I, Ah Shun, am a local, and there are a hundred ways to keep you from dying! But you guys. But there is nothing to be done! β
"Can't die? I only know that I can't live, and I don't know that anyone can't die! The leader of the man in white laughed, "Our ability." Saying it scares you to death! Get out of the way, don't let us do it! β
"Hehe, Ah Shun likes to shoot at those who think they are outstanding." Ah Shun waved his hand, "It's okay, you can call out all the people you know, Ah Shun doesn't mind playing with you!" If Ah Shun wins, you will leave me obediently! Ruo Ah Shun lost. I have others to avenge my Ah Shun! β
"Just you?" The man in white looked at Ah Shun's small body, and raised his big fist in a vinegar bowl: "It's not enough for me to fight!" β
"If you really think you have the strength to play with me, Ah Shun doesn't mind being with me to the end. Of course. If you stop here and summon all the people behind you, I, Ah Shun, can consider letting you live! Ah Shun said proudly.
Xie Dongli heard this, and said coldly: "Ah Shun! β
What nonsense!
Ah Shun trembled in fright. Busy with the color of banter. "Yes!"
He rushed forward like a whirlwind and struck at the men in white.
The white-clothed people only felt a flower in front of them, and the white veil covering their faces fell to the ground, and then their arms went numb, and the knives in their hands couldn't be held, and they fell to the ground with a clang.
By the time they came to their senses, their jaws had been removed and their arms and legs tied. Like a rice dumpling, he was dragged behind a horse and galloped.
"Send the body to the Punishment Department. Sent back to Xie Mansion alive. Xie Dongli gave a faint order, turned over and got on the horse, continued to move forward, and sent Ying sleeves back to the door.
"Yes!" Ah Shun hurriedly ordered his subordinates to send the bodies of the white-clothed people who had just been killed to the Criminal Department to complain, and he personally escorted the five white-clothed people back to Xie Mansion to be imprisoned.
When Xie Dongli and Ying Sleeve came to the gate of the Lady of Zhongzhenguo's mansion, Shen Yongjie already knew about the ambush that had just taken place outside.
She took Xiao Lei and Shen Yule to greet them at the door, very worried.
"Are you alright?" Shen Yongjie asked with concern, "I just ordered someone to clear the snow, but I didn't expect someone to hide in the snowdrift." These people are really ......."
Yingsleeve smiled, stepped forward to hold Shen Yongjie with one hand, and Shen Yule with the other, "It's okay, if they can come, we can fight." Come one, hit one. Come two, kill one! β
Xie Dongli walked with Xiao Lei behind his back and did not speak, but the corners of his lips curled slightly.
Shen Yule took Yingsleeve's hand and said, "The people of our family are here today to support you!" As he spoke, he glared at Xie Dongli.
She was worried that Ying Sleeve was too honest, and it would not be good to be eaten to death by Xie Dongli......
Ying Sleeve smiled and shook her hand, "It's okay, it's okay, the Xie family is very good to me, what do you care?" I would like to ask you, how is your dowry prepared? I'll add makeup to you for the New Year......"
As soon as he said about getting married, Shen Yule became shy, pursed his lips, and changed the topic embarrassedly: "...... Cousin, I heard that Lord Lan went to the Northern Qi Kingdom to recuperate, do you know? I listened to my grandfather......"
Ying Sleeve was stunned, "She went to the Northern Qi Kingdom?" Why? Why do you want to go to Northern Qi to recuperate? β
Shouldn't she die?
Why do you have to go all the way to Northern Qi to wait for death?
Yingsleeve knew that she only gave one antidote, and Yuan Yinglan and Yuan Yingjia could only live alone.
There is no doubt that the person behind the scenes chose Yuan Yingjia, so Yuan Yinglan had no choice but to die.
Ying Sleeve is very confident in her Sangen pill, except for her antidote, no one else can unravel this poison.
And the other party didn't tear her face, shake her out, and openly forced her to take the antidote, which shows that the other party is more afraid of the whole thing being made public than her.
The barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes, and the other party has more scruples than her, so they can only knock out their teeth and swallow blood, and eat this poison.
But Yuan Yinglan died, and her grudge with that side must have deepened.
Thinking of this, Yingsleeve couldn't help but let go of Shen Yongjie and Shen Yule's arms, took a step back, and walked side by side with Xie Donglian.
Shen Yongjie said: "I have to make the final preparations for your return ceremony, you and Dongli will walk slowly, and I will go in first." β
Yingsleeve nodded, "They are all close relatives, so my mother doesn't have to bother too much." β
"Etiquette cannot be abolished, how can it be called trouble?" Shen Yongjie smiled and nodded to Xie Donglian, and took Shen Yule and Xiaolei to leave first, and Yingsleeve and Xie Dongli walked slowly behind.
Taking advantage of the fact that there were no others around, Ying Sleeve told Xie Dongli about what she had just heard about Yuan Yinglan going to the Northern Qi Kingdom to "recuperate".
Xie Dongli listened silently and said indifferently: "What's the matter?" Do you regret giving an antidote? β
Yingsleeve whispered: "You say." What if I don't give a single antidote? β
"Do you think it would have been better if both of them died?" Xie Dongli glanced at her, "Do you think you are soft-hearted?" β
Ying Sleeve thought about it carefully. Shaking his head again, he said slowly: "Not necessarily." I think that with the strength of Northern Qi, we still can't push the other side into a hurry. Over the years, the Northern Qi Dynasty has not ruthlessly annexed our Eastern Yuan, isn't it because of the two brothers and sisters? β
Especially Yuan Yingjia, who is the grandson of the princess of Northern Qi. And he is close to the Northern Qi Kingdom, and he was the only heir to the throne in the past, His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun.
It was because of him that the Northern Qi Kingdom did not use force against the Eastern Yuan Kingdom for the time being, right?
Ying Sleeve continued: "If this time it really kills both of them. Northern Qi will definitely let go and attack our Eastern Yuan. And as soon as Beiqi makes a move, Nan Zheng will definitely follow the troubled waters to fish. β
With the strength of their Eastern Yuan State Taoguang for thirty years, it is okay to fight against one country, but they must fight against the Northern Qi State and the Southern Zheng State at the same time. Well. The picture is too beautiful to see......
Xie Dongli looked at Ying Sleeve movingly.
Unconsciously, her knowledge and vision have gone beyond the small home and backyard, but set her sights on the entire Zhongzhou Continent.
With the earth as the chessboard and the three kingdoms as the chess pieces, every battle between them will be related to the important weapon of the country.
"You've seen a lot." Xie Dongli nodded, his eyes full of appreciation.
Ying Sleeve was overjoyed and said with a smile: "I've learned well, right?" β
"That's nature. I don't look at who taught it by hand. ββThe one who is close to Zhu is red, and the one who is close to ink is black. You're with me. It's going to get better and better. Xie Dongli didn't blush at all and put gold on his face.
Yingsleeve wanted to take a sip of him, but after thinking about it again, he was really not wrong, he was the deputy prime minister, the champion, and Xie Lang who was "the most talented Xie Lang"!
I didn't know how to react for a while, and the expression on my face was very entangled.
Xie Dongli caught a glimpse of her expression, understood her thoughts, and the corners of his lips couldn't help but knock higher.
The two came to the main hall of the inner courtyard, and the relatives of the Shen family really arrived, supporting Shen Yongjie and Yingsleeve.
They came forward to worship Shen Yongjie, and recognized the relatives of the Shen family, and the guests and hosts gathered together and talked happily.
The ladies of the Shen family and Shen Yongjie went to the east with their sleeves to talk, and the men of the Shen family accompanied Xie Dongli to talk.
Prime Minister Shen Dacheng also came, and after he watched Xie Dongli greet everyone, he said to Xiao Lei: "Xiao Lei, you accompany your uncle and cousin to the table, and I want to say a few words to Donglei." β
Xiao Lei understood, and took the men of the Shen family to sit in the outer courtyard.
Prime Minister Shen Dacheng took Xie Dongli to the west room and sat down, and asked him, "I heard that someone ambushed you just now?" Do you know who it is? β
Looking at the clothes and looks of those people, Xie Dongli had an account in his heart, but he didn't confirm it yet, so he didn't say much, just said: "Just wait a minute, I'm not sure yet." β
Xie Dongli had just briefly recounted the situation he had encountered outside, when he heard a mother-in-law report at the door: "Auntie, your little servant Ah Shun is here, saying that there is something urgent." β
Xie Dongli was stunned, hurriedly opened the curtain, came to the outhouse, and asked Ah Shun, "What's wrong?" What happened? β
Just now he ordered Ah Shun to send those living people in white back to Xie Mansion, could it be that something happened to those people in white?
Ah Shun came to his side and said in a low voice: "Fifth master, the little one just asked, these people in white are from the Wu family of Nan Zheng Guo. β
"Hehe, it's not a small guts." Xie Dongli sneered, "Are you sure?" Wouldn't it be someone pretending? β
Ah Shun scratched his head, "It shouldn't be." They say they ...... It's for the Fifth Lady. β
"Sleeves?" Xie Dongli was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes narrowed, "Are you really coming at her?" β
Ah Shun nodded, "Sure." With the help of some people, they set up an ambush near the Lady of the Loyal Kingdom's mansion early. We also had people who watched their movements before, and it turned out that they didn't deal with the five phases, the three marquis, and even the royal family, but they did their best to deal with the five ladies, which was really ...... It's puzzling. β
Xie Dongli knew that there was a reason for this.
The Wu family did this, only exposing the fact that they were colluding with the people who kidnapped Shen Yongjie and Xiao Lei in the Eastern Yuan Kingdom this time.
And the people who kidnapped Shen Yongjie and Xiao Lei are, of course, the people from Queen Qi Xueyun's side, that is, the people of Northern Qi.
These people all know that today is the day when Yingsleeve returns to the door for three days.
This is not happy to use her life......
"Fifth master, why don't we go back early today?" Ah Shun cautiously suggested, "The little ones are worried that they still have a backhand." β
Xie Dongli glanced at him, and said with a heavy face: "Knowing that they are coming, we will avoid them, is this how your fifth master does things?" When did your fifth master ever be afraid of people? Besides, will you have to hide like a groundhog in your own country in the future? - What a joke! β
He walked around the house a few times and said indifferently: "Originally, I wanted to force them to go to the Northern Qi Kingdom, but now it seems that they don't want to live anymore and kill themselves!" - Shun, come here......"
Ah Shun stepped forward, and Xie Dongli whispered a few words in his ear.
Ah Shun nodded again and again when he heard this, "The little one must do it!" But......" Ah Shun hesitantly looked in the direction of the Moon Cave Gate, "Should the Fifth Lady hide?" After all, swords and arrows have no eyes, and if they hurt ......"
"No, I don't. With me, she'll be fine. Xie Dongli waved his hand, "You go and decorate, remember to make a big noise, the more people who know, the better." β
"Yes!" Ah Shun answered loudly, turned around and went out to arrange.
Xie Dongli thought about it, walked to the corridor again, called out his secret guard Xie Yin, and ordered: "...... In the future, you can just follow Madame, and leave me alone. β
Xie Yin said with a cold face: "Vice Minister Xie, I am your secret guard. β
"So you have to listen to whatever I say. Alright, this matter is non-negotiable. Xie Dongli's tone was very resolute, and he said one thing or another, "...... Let's go down. β
Xie Yin couldn't, so he had to respond, because he was the only person who knew Xie Dongli's identity as "master", and several times before in order to rush to save Yingshou, he had put this secret guard to temporarily pretend to be "Xie Dongli" to paralyze everyone.
He knew that Xie Donglian's kung fu was actually much higher than him, and he didn't need his secret guard to save his life.
β¦β¦
Ying Sleeve stayed at her mother's house for a whole day, and only after dinner did she reluctantly go home.
When he went back, Xie Dongli did not ride a horse, but sat in a sedan chair with Yingsleeve.
ββ¦β¦ These white-clothed people who came today are people from the Wu family of Nan Zheng Guo. Xie Dongli whispered in Yingsleeve's ear.
Ying Sleeve was taken aback, his eyes widened, and he said puzzledly: "People from the Wu family? They...... How do they know it's me?! β
She went to Nan Zhengguo for a while, and by the way, she killed the big witch, but she always used a fake identity, and she never even showed her true face!
As soon as she said this, she also understood: "...... They're really in league with the people behind the scenes on our side! β
Xie Dongli nodded, "Exactly." So, they also exposed their goals and strengths. After a pause, he looked deeply at Yingsleeve: "...... Are you afraid? β
"Don't be afraid." Ying Sleeve shook his head, looked at Xie Dongli, and smiled all over his face, "You are by my side, I am not afraid of anything!" β
Xie Dongli raised his hand, but when he was about to touch her cheek, he put it down, and his voice was mellow and low: "Well, as long as you are by my side, I am not afraid of anything." β
I'm just afraid you're not with me......
