Chapter Thirty-Eight: Before the Cannon Rings (Part II)
At two o'clock on August 16 of the eighth year of Kangxi, the Qing army fleet carrying Gu Yanwu and others arrived in Gaoyou earlier than expected, and the donkey who was not in the same sky as Wu Yuanming had just disembarked, and he rushed to meet Wu Ciyou and Li Yuliang on the dock and shouted: "Mr. Wu, uncle, where is the ancestral grave of Wu Yingxiong's dog mongrel?" I'm going to go to his ancestral grave and put three bubbles of on his head! Sprinkle three bubbles of urine and avenge the master, Brother Wei, Second Brother Mu and Brother Wolf! Also, avenge Mr. Wu's tongue! ”
"Donkey donkey, don't speak so vulgarly and dirty." Li Yuliang frowned, very dissatisfied with the donkey's words. Wu Ciyou waved his hand to stop Li Yuliang from further reproaching the donkey, and wrote with his finger in Li Yuliang's palm: "Brother donkey is straightforward, I like it." Besides, this is an official dock, and there are no idle and irrelevant people, so it's nothing to talk about. ”
Li Yuliang was 100% blind to Wu Ciyou, and although he was still extremely dissatisfied in his heart, he still didn't say anything. The donkey has always been only unconvinced by Li Yuliang, a beautiful and serious uncle, and immediately said to Wu Ciyou with a grin: "Mr. Wu, I heard that you have found a miracle doctor who can cure your tongue?" If that's the case, it's great, Aunt Su Ma is still waiting for you in Beijing City. Saying that, the donkey glanced at Li Yuliang again, and saw that although Li Yuliang was silent on the surface, his body was trembling slightly, and the donkey couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, and said in his heart that you are called this stinky ** uncle, do you really think that Mr. Wu likes you?
"Donkey, first take the important prisoners of the court to Gaoyou Prison for strict guarding, and if you have anything to say, we will go to the ancestral tomb of Wu Yingxiong's family in a while. Regarding the ancestral grave of Wu Yingxiong's family, I have good news for you. Since his tongue was cut off by Yao Qisheng, Wu Ciyou basically carried a brush with him, dipped the brush in water and wrote on the boat to tell the donkey, and the donkey was overjoyed and asked, "What good news?" Mr. Wu, please say quickly, I'm in a hurry, and I can't help it. ”
"Mr. Wu, please speak quickly." Under the repeated urging of the donkey, Wu Ciyou couldn't resist the donkey, and saw that the people around him were all brought by the donkey, so he told the donkey about the feng shui of the ancestral tomb of Wu Sangui's family sent by Kangxi. At this moment, the donkey's mouth was almost completely crooked, and he applauded and laughed: "Okay, good, the red-clothed cannon bombarded the rotten ancestral tomb of Wu Yingxiong's family, so that his whole family would die, and the whole door would be beheaded, and the nine clans would be destroyed!" As for the women of his family...... Although Wu Yingxiong's wife must be older, I won't mind, wahahahaha......! ”
"Donkey ——!" Li Yuliang saw that the more the donkey spoke, the more unkind it became, and he couldn't help but shout in a long voice. But since Hu Gongshan's death, the donkey has not taken Li Yuliang in his eyes at all, and his laughter has become more and more rampant, Li Yuliang has no choice but to turn to Wu Ciyou, who is also smiling, and said: "Mr. Wu, I shouldn't have intervened in the major affairs of the imperial court, although Wu Yingxiong has done a lot of evil, but the disaster is not as good as the ancestors, and he is dead, and the death of people is gone, and we still attack his ancestral grave, which is unavoidable...... It's too despicable. What is the difference between us doing this and Wu Yingxiong's dog thief? ”
"Stinky **, I think you're trying to say I'm getting meaner, right? Since you came to the rivers and lakes, you have become more and more disobedient! Wu Ciyou was secretly angry in his heart, but his face was silent. The donkey didn't pay attention to Li Yuliang, and pulled up Wu Ciyou, who was polite and smiling, "Mr. Wu, let's go, first take these Qin prisoners to death row." With that, the donkey pulled up Wu Ciyou and left, leaving Li Yuliang in a daze.
"If it was Wu Yingxiong, he shouldn't have done this, the people of Mu Wangfu and his family are in the same situation, and he still let go of Mu Shenbao's brothers and sisters...... I also made friends with them. Facing the cool river breeze, the confused Li Yuliang unconsciously remembered Wu Yingxiong who deceived her into undressing, but Li Yuliang quickly said vigilantly: "Why do I think of him again?" He and I are enemies, and my parents died tragically, and his father had a lot to do with it! Thinking of this, Li Yuliang quickly shook his head to get rid of his confusion, and quickly chased after Wu Ciyou and the donkey......
……
"Wu Gongzi, Gu Yanwu's Qin prisoners have been put on death row." Ren Weichu will report to Wu Yuanming respectfully: "That dumb scholar came up with an idea and asked the imperial guard who led the team to drive out all the cell bosses and errands in the prison and replace them with the military guards he brought. But that's okay, the lower officials don't have to meddle in the care of the Qin prisoners, and they can rest assured that they can stay in the town with Gongzi Han. ”
"Very good, Gu Yanwu's anti-thieves and our Wu family are also incompatible, and I am relieved of this." Wu Yuanming said on his lips, but in his heart he was thinking about the possibility of rescuing Gu Yanwu and the others. Suddenly, Wu Yuanming's eyes lit up and said: "Lord Ren, since it was the imperial guards who personally escorted the anti-thieves here, and those anti-thieves are also the sworn enemies of our Pingxi Palace, as the prince and nephew of the Pingxi Palace, I should also treat them." I'll take some money out, and you can arrange for someone to buy some local vegetables from Gaoyou and send them to the prison to reward the troops guarding the Qin prisoners. ”
"There's no need for Childe to break the bank." Ren Weichu said with a smile on his face: "That dumb Mr. Wu has repeatedly explained that the military diet of the guards is all cooked with meat, vegetables, eggs and poultry purchased by themselves, and they are not allowed to eat any other food, even the water they drink is picked by themselves from Gaoyou Lake - because the well is easy to be poisoned by thieves." ”
"! Doesn't that make it clear that you don't believe us? Wu Yuanming's face was full of anger, but he was worried in his heart - Wu Ciyou, a hardcore traitor, was thoughtful and thoughtful, and his precautions did not leak, it seemed that it was impossible for them to rescue Gu Yanwu in Gaoyou. Ren Weichu was actually a little annoyed by what Wu Ciyou did, and he also scolded Wu Yuanming, and he was very dissatisfied. Wu Yuanming took the opportunity to say: "Since those Beijing officials from Beijing don't believe us, and my son doesn't want to see them, our Xixuan officials in Pingxi Wangfu don't have to fool them to Beijing officials, and we won't be on the same road with them for a while. ”
"It's all up to the son's orders, and the lower officials will arrange it." Ren Weichu agreed. In fact, Ren Weichu's move was also helpless, because of the Crying Temple case, his reputation in the officialdom Wenlin has been stinking all over the street, and Wu Ciyou is an out-and-out hypocrite, for the sake of his reputation, he naturally did not want to go with Ren Weichu, and did not ask Ren Weichu to go to Hanliu Town with them. Therefore, Wu Yuanming proposed to travel in plain clothes, but it was exactly what Ren Weichu wanted. In a moment, Ren Weichu changed into civilian clothes and rushed to Hanliu Town with ten henchmen and servants Wu Yuanming and two veterans brought by Wu Yuanming.
……
At the same time, in the Gaoyou Post House, the donkey and Nan Huairen have already met in the post house, the two have been old acquaintances when they were in the palace, and it is naturally very happy to meet here - even the politeness is saved, and the donkey shouted directly to Nan Huairen: "Lord Yang, I heard that you are going to bombard the ancestral grave of Wu Sangui's dog thief, I don't share the sky with the son of the dog thief, I also want to go with you, let's go quickly, I want to shoot a few shots myself!" ”
"NO, NO, donkey donkey, don't worry, our team is still carrying shells and gunpowder, we have to wait for them to load before we leave." Nan Huairen smiled as he pointed to the army who were busy carrying shells and gunpowder. He also ordered the soldiers who were putting the red-coated cannons on the carriage: "The emperor told us to only shoot nine cannons, just load nine cannonballs, it is useless to load too much, and we have to spend effort to pull them back." ”
"Why didn't it work? Load a few more shells, Lao Tzu wants to shoot a few more shots at the ancestral grave of Wu Yingxiong's dog thief. The donkey rubbed his hands together and shouted vulgarly. Wu Ciyou, who was next to him, nodded again and again, agreeing with this, but Li Yuliang was disdainful and dissatisfied with this move. Nan Huairen smiled and said: "Lord Donkey misunderstood, the emperor did not let us directly bombard Wu Sangui's ancestral tomb, but fired a few cannons at the mountain peak behind Wu Sangui's ancestral tomb - in the words of you Orientals, that is called breaking feng shui and cutting off what veins ......." ”
Nan Huairen and the donkey and others had an intimate conversation, but they didn't know that Li Xiongfei and Zheng Xin in the room where Zhu Fangdan lived in the distance had become ants on a hot pot, because two packets of pill-pack propellant were lost yesterday, although the Qing army did not think much about the reason, but they had strengthened the supervision of gunpowder, cannonballs and red-coated cannons, so that they had not found a chance to exchange shells until now, and now the five hundred Qing soldiers brought by Nan Huairen poured out to fill the post house compound, and they had no chance to start. And Zhu Fangdan, who was obsessed with sex, was still urging for Zheng Xue's fragrant kiss: "Quick, don't you want me to cover you to change the shells?" If you don't do it, it's too late, how do you want me to cover up, say it quickly? ”
"The carriage pulling the cannonballs is full of people, and I can't find a chance." Li Xiongfei wiped the sweat on his head and said. Zhu Fangdan touched his chin and asked, "So, you just need to throw the cannonball on the carriage?" If that's all it takes, how easy is it? ”
"There are all foreign devils and Tartars around there, how do you put the shells in the car?" Zheng Xin asked this pervert doctor angrily. The pervert divine doctor grinned, revealing a mouth full of yellow teeth, "It's easy, it's easy, it's too easy." Zheng Xin was willing to believe it, and said disdainfully: "It's easy to say, then you put the cannonball on the carriage?" If you can put the cannonball in the carriage without waiting for my sister, I can kiss you right now. ”
"Girl, that's what you said, don't regret it." Zhu Fangdan screamed happily, resisted the cannonballs placed on the table, pushed the door and swaggered out. Li Xiongfei, Zheng Xin and another veteran were all startled, and hurriedly went to the crack in the door to peek at the situation, and what made them stunned was that they saw that Zhu Fangdan resisted the cannonball and went around to the way where the Qing army was carrying the cannonball gunpowder, and then walked directly to the carriage that pulled the cannonball, and threw the cannonball directly onto the carriage in front of Nan Huairen and the donkey, rubbed his hands and smiled at Wu Ciyou and Li Yuliang: "Mr. Wu, I helped you move this cannonball, and I will avenge you for being provoked." Miss Yun Niang, you see how considerate you are Mr. Wu, what you promised me, don't forget it. ”
"Mr. Zhu——!" Li Yuliang's face was a little red, and he scolded Zhu Fangdan: "Mr. Zhu, you have time to do these boring things, it is better to think of more ways to treat Mr. Wu's injuries and let him heal quickly." Wu Ciyou smiled at Zhu Fangdan and expressed his gratitude. At this time, Nan Huairen saw that the shells and gunpowder had been loaded, so he ordered: "It's okay, it's hard to carry it if you load too much." Let's go quickly, we have to rush back to Gaoyou City in the evening, and I will rush to Beijing tomorrow. ”
"Since Lord Yang said it's okay, then it's okay, Lord Yang, Mr. Wu, let's go quickly." Seeing that the cannonballs had been loaded with more than 20 shells, it was enough for him to enjoy himself, so he pulled Nan Huairen and Wu Ciyou on the road. Li Yuliang shook his head and said, "I'm not going, I'm a little unwell." Zhu Fangdan, who was about to sneak back to the room to ask Zheng Xin for a fragrant kiss, immediately turned his head and asked impatiently while pulling Li Yuliang's hand: "Miss Yunniang, where are you uncomfortable?" I'll give you a pulse massage! ”
"Get out of the way, I'd rather die of illness than be cured by you." Li Yuliang blushed and shook off Zhu Fangdan's hand, lowered his head and said to Wu Ciyou: "Mr. Wu, this time there is a donkey to protect you, I won't go, I'm really a little uncomfortable." Wu Ciyou glanced at Li Yuliang, nodded with a sneer in his heart, and agreed to Li Yuliang's request. Li Yuliang didn't speak again, turned around and walked back to her room silently.
After a while, Nan Huairen left half of his troops to guard the remaining gunpowder and cannonballs, and rushed to Hanliu Town with the red-coated cannons with Donkey, Wu Ciyou and others. As soon as they left, Zhu Fangdan saw that there was no one left and right, so he couldn't wait to sneak back to the room, and as soon as he entered the door, he whispered to Zheng Xin: "Girl, I have already put that cannonball on the carriage, you promise to kiss me, quickly!" Fast! Saying that, Zhu Fangdan put his face in front of Zheng Xin, looking forward to Zheng Xin's kiss. Zheng Xin took a step back with a red face, and Zhu Fangdan took another step closer and urged: "Girl, you said it, don't think about going back." ”
"It's not that I want to go back." Zheng Xin said with a bitter face: "The main thing is that I already have a sweetheart, if I kiss you, I'm afraid he will be angry...... That's right! Zheng Xin suddenly patted his thigh and said: "By the way, you and we will go to the boat in a while, I will ask Sister Daiyan to kiss you twice, she and I are almost beautiful and unmarried, and she is recruiting a son-in-law, if you hook up with her, maybe you have a chance to marry her." ”
"Girl, you seem to be playing tricks, now you don't talk anymore, can I still believe your words? If you're still lying to me, what should I do? Zhu Fangdan was deeply skeptical of Zheng Xin's creditworthiness. Zheng Xin said very aggrievedly: "What am I lying to you for?" After a while, you will get on the boat with us, if you think that Sister Daiyan is not as beautiful as me, or she is unwilling to kiss you, as long as Brother Wu agrees, then I will ...... Just let you ....... ”
"Okay, don't fight, since the cannonballs have been put on the carriage, and there is no one now, let's hurry up and go to Hanliu Town to pick up Brother Wu." Li Xiongfei waved his hand to stop the dispute between Zheng Xin and Zhu Fangdan. Zhu Fangdan thought for a while and said: "No, I also want to go to Hanliu Town with you, and I will see if that Daiyan girl is as beautiful as you say, if she can't satisfy me, little girl, what you promised me, you must do it." ”
Zhu Fangdan's superb medical skills are famous all over the world, not only Wu Yuanming has admired him for a long time, but even Wu Sangui, who is far away in Yunnan, has sighed that he can't accept this person to serve under his command and regrets it very much, so Zhu Fangdan proposed to be on the same road with Li Xiongfei and others, Li Xiongfei naturally deserved it, and nodded without hesitation. Only Zheng Xin hated Zhu Fangdan's two-colored Mimi's mung bean eyes, and he was determined to repay the debt, so he resolutely opposed it, but Li Xiongfei and Zhu Fangdan didn't care so much, they went out and hired two carriages and rushed to Hanliu Town. But what they didn't notice was that when they just came out of the door, Li Yuliang, who stayed in the post station, suddenly remembered Zheng Xin, who was pretending to be sick and looking for Zhu Fangdan's treatment, and was worried that Zheng Xin would be indecent by Zhu Fangdan's pervert doctor, so Li Yuliang came to Zhu Fangdan's room to visit the situation, and happened to see Li Xiongfei, Zheng Xin and Zhu Fangdan and a group of people pulling and pulling and sneaking out......
"What are these people doing in Hanliu Town? Why did Zhu Fangdan go with them behind my back? That little girl doesn't look like someone who is seriously ill? Looking at the back of the two carriages hired by Li Xiongfei and the others leaving, the more Li Yuliang thought about it, the more puzzled he became, "Could it be that they deliberately pretended to be sick to approach Zhu Fangdan and had other plans?" Thinking of this, Li Yuliang was afraid that Li Xiongfei and others were targeting Wu Ciyou, so he didn't dare to hesitate, and hurriedly hired a carriage to follow him to Hanliu Town......
In this way, Wu Yuanming and Ren Weichu all the way, Wu Ciyou, Qiang Donkey and Nan Huairen all the way, Li Xiongfei, Zheng Xin and Zhu Fangdan all the way, Li Yuliang all the way, these despicable villains and chivalrous heroines with their own ghosts rushed to Hanliu Town in four ways, and the targets all pointed to Wu Sangui's ancestral tomb in Gaoyou Hanliu Town......
