Chapter 170: Unlucky Master Liu
Liu Yi, the past Shiyi county order, these two years have been unfavorable, first Chen Changping, the rebel led people to sweep Shiyi, kidnapped his family, after a thrilling period of exile, finally got out of the tiger's mouth, this day has not been lived in peace for a year, an army dressed in black, once again broke Shiyi, kidnapped his family again.
When he fell into the hands of the black-clothed army, Liu Yi was really distraught, and this time there would be no more sons of his own who tirelessly led people to save him, because Liu Chenglin was still far away in Jingzhou at the moment, and he couldn't fly even if he had wings.
At first, he thought it was another rebel army.
Until a familiar face appeared in front of his eyes.
That's slaughtering tigers. A Wuyi man who once had business dealings with him.
It was only then that he realized that this black-clothed army was not a rebel army at all, but Li Ze's army from Wuyi.
Li Ze still has a little bit of incense with his son, and if it falls into his hands, there is probably no problem with his life, and he doesn't have to worry about the innocence of his wife and daughter, but now Yizhou is not being attacked by Zhu Bin and Zhu Jun's army? How could Li Ze still have the strength to counterattack into Texas?
Liu Yi couldn't figure it out.
But there is no doubt that he was once again a prisoner, and he was going to Wuyi as a hostage again. The last time he was a hostage, he caused a big trouble for his son, and he fell into the hands of Li Ze, so that he finally had to report to Li Ze again and again, so that Suning and Zhu Jun's hundreds of elite horsemen were buried in Daqingshan, this can be regarded as the second big handle, if Zhu Jun knows about it, I am afraid that he will tear himself alive.
Now that he has fallen into the hands of Li Ze again, I don't know what else will happen.
Liu Yi sighed for a long time, he had fallen deeper and deeper in this big net, and it seemed that he couldn't pull it out.
Now Chengde and Henghai are fighting, his son is leading troops in Henghai, and Li Ze is an obvious opponent, and now he is in the hands of the other party, and he doesn't know what will happen.
Tu Hu really respects the Liu family, of course, what should be done is not ambiguous at all, and he sent people to get the Liu family directly to Wuyi through Daqingshan, and Master Liu revisited the road that was escorted by Chen Changping last year, the difference is that the last time he was tied, this time he was riding a horse and sitting in a sedan chair, not like a prisoner, but like a guest.
After being escorted all the way to Wuyi County, he did not see Li Ze, and it was Li Ze's mother who came forward to entertain him, a graceful and luxurious, knowledgeable and courteous woman, who treated people and things generously.
After inviting his family of three to have a meal, a big girl arranged for his family to live, and this stay was half a month. His wife and daughter often go into the inner house to chat with Mrs. Wang, and the daughter is often left in the back house.
But Master Liu himself is not treated so well, and he can't find anyone who can speak. There are a lot of maids and servants who are waiting for them, but one by one they are like a gourd, asking them, and they all laugh like Maitreya Buddha, but they don't match.
Three days ago, the dreary days finally changed.
Because suddenly there were more people in this house.
A group of soldiers returned from the outside, and returned to the row of rooms at the back of the mansion with joy, and the news of the victory spread throughout the house.
The Chengde people won the war.
This is a general piece of information that Master Liu has gotten, but what kind of details it is is still unclear.
This made Master Liu's heart mixed, he really didn't know whether to feel happy or sad now?
He is an official under the rule of Yokomi, and his son is even more valued by the festival envoy, speaking of which he seems to be sad for Yokomi's failure, but when he thinks of Yokomi if he wins, he is afraid that his life will be difficult, and the end may not be much better! Besides, if the Henghai comes over and he is nominally rescued, his life will be better? Zhu Jun, the bastard, has always been embarrassed by himself, and last time he revealed his ambition for Ruyan, which scared him for several days and ordered his daughter not to take half a step out of the house.
Fortunately, with his son's backing, that bastard never dared to mess around.
It wasn't until yesterday that he finally saw someone who could speak, a lame steward who had returned from the outside with a helmet and armor. Taking off his armor and putting on the clothes of a servant, this great butler named Tian Bo came to meet this special guest in the Li family's mansion.
"Master Liu, I'm really sorry, our son-in-law has just returned, and everything is complicated, I'm afraid I won't be able to go home until tomorrow." Tian Bo made an arch and smiled at Mimi. "These days, is Master Liu still used to living?"
Can you say that you are not used to it? Liu engraved a sentence in his heart. But his mouth was still polite: "Habit, habit." Steward Tian, I don't know what kind of situation this battle is? In the past two days, I have listened to a sentence in the east and a sentence in the west, and my heart is really a little bit up and down. ”
"Master Liu doesn't have to worry, this battle is a big victory for our son." Tian Bo smiled so hard that his mouth couldn't close his mouth, "Dare to let Master Liu know that our son defeated Zhu Bin's main force, led thousands of troops to sweep through Texas, outside Texas City, killed Zhu Bin in a battle, and broke through Texas City, and now Texas has been burned to white ground by us, and the people of Texas have all migrated back to Wuyi Xindu and other places by us." There are more than 100,000 people all of a sudden, and this young man is very busy. It is not an easy task to settle so many people. ”
Tian Bo said happily, and Master Liu's mouth opened into an O-shape, which was enough to stuff a big duck egg.
The other party won, and he has established enough psychological defense, although at first he didn't think Li Ze could win. But what Tian Bo said to him completely broke through his imagination, and he really couldn't understand how Zhu Bin could have been defeated so badly, and even lost his life.
After a long time, he said tremblingly: "Steward Tian, you're not joking with me, are you?" ”
"How dare you joke with Master Liu?" Tian Bo said with a smile: "Zhu Bin's head has long been hung on the head of Dezhou City, and now the first batch of immigrants to Wuyi has begun to settle, tens of thousands of people, and the streets are much more lively than before." Oh, after Master Liu came to the house, he hasn't been out of the house, right? Why don't you go out and have a look, and maybe you can meet a few acquaintances! ”
Liu Yi was speechless.
Tian Bo leaned over and said in a low voice: "The eight families of Texas, except for the Ma family, who disobeyed our son and was beheaded by the whole house, the other families are now in Wuyi, and they are buying houses and fields. ”
"Can I go out?" Liu Yi asked a little sluggishly.
"Look at what you said, Master Liu, you are different from others, we can win this battle, Master Liu, you have also made meritorious contributions, you were also friendly to us earlier, the battle in Daqingshan, if it wasn't for Master Liu, you gave us the news first, maybe what would have happened? Our son has always been very grateful, so ah, you are a guest in Wuyi, you must not be polite, if there is anything, what do you want, just say hello. ”
Tian Bo was full of enthusiasm, and Liu Yi was really a little unaccustomed to it for a while.
"I want to go out for a walk and have a look!"
"No problem!" Tian Bo clapped his hands, and four powerful men immediately walked outside, carrying horizontal knives in their waists, and stood with their heads held high. "You four, from now on, follow Master Liu, protect Master Liu's safety, in this county, Master Liu can go wherever he wants."
"Yes!" The four men replied loudly.
"Master Liu, there are a lot of people outside now, and it's chaotic, there must be tens of thousands of Texans coming at once, and some will come later, it's okay for you to go out, don't go out for Mrs. and Miss, lest there be some trouble." Tian Bo said with a smile.
Liu Yi nodded wordlessly.
Walking out of the Li family's mansion, it was really different from the appearance when he came.
When I came, although it was only a glimpse, the streets were deserted, and there were few people in sight, but now as soon as I stepped out of the gate, it was already full of people.
The streets were filled with a steady stream of people with familiar accents, and the shops on both sides reopened, filled with all sorts of goods, and more men dressed in black stood on the streets, carrying burdens or carrying baskets, selling goods to passers-by.
Liu Yi knew that it was snatched from Texas by Chengde people. I was sent all the way back here from Shiyi by someone dressed in black like this.
Not to mention, after walking around the street, he really saw an acquaintance, a member of the Hou clan, who had a lot of dealings with him in the past. Because of Liu Chenglin's relationship, Liu engraved in Texas is still a little popular.
Seeing Liu Xuan, the Hou clan was first stunned, and then also understood, and the two stood at the corner of the street and talked a few words before hurriedly parting. Liu Yi is heart was shaken, and the Hou clan people were in a hurry to talk about business with people and buy houses, there were not many good houses in Wuyi, and now a large number of people are pouring in, and it has become a seller's market.
Returning to Li's house with a heavy heart, dinner had already been set up in the house, and his wife Yu was waiting for him to eat.
"Where's the girl?" Sitting down, Liu Yan didn't see Liu Ruyan, and asked casually.
"I was left behind to eat with Mrs. Wang." Yu looked at Liu Yi with some worry: "Master, how is this good?" I think Mrs. Wang has a crush on our girl! ”
