Chapter 417: Anger
Su Mei hadn't heard of Gongsun Ying, but she had obviously heard of Bai Jin, Tang Ning explained: "On the way to Chu this time, I met a woman who also knew Gu arts, and she asked us for trouble three times and twice, and I was later arrested, she said that her name was Gongsun Ying, and asked me if I knew Bai Jin......"
"Bai Jin is my master." Su Mei put down the spoon, stood up and said, "I'll ask her." ”
"What's the hurry...... Tang Ning sat down on her shoulders and said, "It's not too late to ask after eating these." ”
Su Mei looked at him, sat down and continued to drink the pear soup that Tang Ning cooked for her.
Tang Ning asked, "Your master is the old woman who often appears here?" ”
"It's her." Su Mei nodded, and said while drinking soup: "I got lost with my father and mother when I was a child, and it was the master who picked me up, taught me martial arts, and raised me. ”
When she was talking in her dream just now, Tang Ning was sitting on the edge of the bed, knowing that she was not lost with her parents, but abandoned, until now she often dreams about this, which shows how much this incident hurt her, Tang Ning naturally will not reveal her scars, nodded, and did not continue to ask.
Su Mei finished drinking the pear soup and walked out of the room, and after a while, the old woman Tang Ning had seen before walked in quickly, looked at Tang Ning and asked, "You said you have seen Gongsun Ying, where is she now?" ”
"In Ping'an County." Tang Ning had already guessed that the middle-aged woman had something to do with Su Mei, so he didn't let Lu Teng take her away, but directly locked her up in the county jail.
The old woman stepped forward and said, "Take me to her!" ”
Xiao Tao said that the old woman once made Su Mei kneel for three days and three nights, Tang Ning was angry when he thought of it, shook his head, and said: "What kind of place do you think the county government is, you can enter if you want to?" ”
The old woman looked angry and said loudly: "You ......"
Su Mei walked over, pulled his sleeve, and said, "You must have a way, just find a way to let us in." ”
Naturally, there is a way to enter the prison, an excuse to visit the prison can bring people in, Tang Ning just can't get used to this old woman who always has a straight face, but since Su Mei has spoken, he can't refuse anymore, so he stood up and said, "Follow me." ”
……
At the door of the prison, two jailers saw him coming, and immediately bowed down and said, "Lord Tang." ”
Although Zhao Xiancheng and his father-in-law often quarrel, they are actually one heart, and the two of them have worked together to make an iron bucket for the entire county government.
Tang Ning often came to the county government and was familiar with the officials here.
He waved his hand and said, "Take them to meet the woman who was locked in yesterday." ”
"Yes." The jailer nodded, stretched out his hand, and said, "Please, two." ”
The old woman glanced at Su Mei and said, "You wait outside, I'll just go alone." ”
Tang Ning's face sank, glanced at her, and said, "If you have something to say, hurry up, you only have a quarter of an hour." ”
After the old woman walked in, Su Mei looked at Tang Ning, whose face was not very good, and asked, "Has my master offended you?" ”
"Nope."
Su Mei was puzzled: "Then why do you have such a bad attitude towards her?" ”
"Who told her to punish you for kneeling for so long?"
“……”
"Did Xiao Tao tell you?" Su Mei was stunned and said, "This dead girl, sooner or later, she will sew her mouth up." ”
Although her words were fierce, the corners of her mouth turned up unconsciously when she said this.
Tang Ning shook his head and said, "You also have to think more about yourself." ”
Su Mei looked at him and asked, "Do you remember what you said at the beginning?" ”
Tang Ning was surprised: "What words? ”
Su Mei looked into his eyes and said, "You said that if it were me, you would ...... me like Princess Pingyang, is this sentence true?" ”
To be a man, we must know how to repay the grace, the grace of a drop of water, and repay it when the spring springs.
Tang Ning knew who was good to him, looked at Su Mei, touched his chest, and said, "I swear, if this sentence is the slightest bit false, let me ...... it."
Su Mei's eyes rolled, she stretched out her fingertips and pressed his lips, and said, "It's enough to have this sentence, as for what I want to do for you, that's what I like, you can't care about ......"
She is willing to pay ten times and a hundred times because of a hypothetical promise, what kind of experience can make her form such a character, Tang Ning thought about it, and suddenly felt a little sad, and changed the topic: "Who is that Gongsun Ying, your master seems to care about her very much." ”
"I don't know." Su Mei shook her head and said, "She never mentioned it to me. ”
Tang Ning thought for a while, looked at her, and said mysteriously, "Follow me." ”
He walked into the prison, but instead of moving forward, he turned into a room on the left.
Su Mei followed him in, saw a whole wide wall, hung with a kind of cylinder, walked to the wall, and said in surprise: "What is this?" ”
This room is actually a bugging room specially designed by Downing.
What the prisoner does not want to admit in court may say it intentionally or unconsciously without defense.
These copper cylinders, connected by copper tubes at the bottom, extend to each cell, where the movements of each cell can be monitored.
Tang Ning looked at one of the servants in the room and asked, "What room is the woman who came in yesterday?" ”
The official said, "Six." ”
Each room has two earphones, and Tang Ning walked to the wall by himself, attached his ear, and motioned for Su Mei to stick the other one.
Su Mei followed his example and put her ears close to the earphones, Tang Ning realized that the distance between the two earphones was too close, and after both of them were pasted, the distance between the tip of the nose and the tip of the nose was only an inch.
When Su Mei saw this thing for the first time, her ears were attached to the earphones, and she looked at him with interest, Tang Ning blushed a little when she saw it, and simply closed her eyes and listened carefully to the movements in the earphones.
The sound came in through the brass pipes, which had been weakened, but fortunately it could be heard clearly.
Somewhere in a cell, a jailer opened the door and said to the old woman, "Go in, remember that you have only a quarter of an hour." ”
The old woman walked in, and after the jailer left, the middle-aged woman sitting on the bed raised her head, looked at her, showed a smile on her face, and said, "Senior sister, I haven't seen you for more than ten years, and you are much older. ”
The old woman took a deep breath and said slowly, "Sure enough, it's you." ”
"Senior sister?" In another room, Tang Ning showed a look of surprise on his face, he couldn't imagine that this middle-aged woman was actually the old woman's junior sister, that is, Su Mei's uncle?
He looked at Su Mei opposite, and saw that she also showed a surprised expression, obviously he hadn't heard of this uncle.
In the cell, the old woman looked at the middle-aged woman and asked, "Where have you been all these years?" ”
"I'm not as capable as my senior sister." The middle-aged woman sneered and said: "I have actually entered the court of Chen State, and even the wedding envoy is your apprentice, but I heard along the way that your apprentice is very trusted by the emperor, and when he grows up, great things can ......be expected."
"What do you mean?" The old woman frowned and asked, "You mean the kid surnamed Tang, he is not my apprentice." ”
"You think I'll believe it?" The middle-aged woman looked at her in disbelief and asked, "He is not your apprentice, will you give him the Ice Silkworm Gu?" ”
"Believe it or not." The old woman glanced at her and said, "The Ice Silkworm Gu was stolen and given to him by that rebel, and I have already severely punished her." ”
"Just a severe punishment?" The middle-aged woman looked at her and said, "Ice silkworms are rare, and ice silkworm Gu is even more difficult to refine, you treat that ice silkworm Gu as your life, and you actually didn't kill her?" ”
The old woman said lightly: "She is naturally charming, and her effect on me is more important than that of the Ice Silkworm Gu." ”
"Born to be a bony one?" The middle-aged woman frowned, then stretched out again, and said: "A person who is naturally charming is indeed suitable for practicing your kung fu, just three points can fascinate a man, it is a good tool." ”
"Don't talk about her." The old woman waved her hand and said, "Tell me about you, how did you end up in such a situation......"
In another room, Tang Ning left the wall with a calm face, pulled Su Mei away by the way, and said, "Don't listen!" ”
Su Mei glanced at him and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
The attitude revealed between the words of the two made him angry, Tang Ning looked at Su Mei and asked, "She just uses you as a tool, why are you still staying by her side?" ”
"That's why you're so angry?" Su Mei was stunned, the smile between her eyebrows and eyes was even stronger, she gently pulled his face, and said: "If it weren't for her, I would have frozen to death and starved to death outside, even if she used it as a tool, it doesn't matter......"
Tang Ning took her hand away, Su Mei reached out and shook his arm again, and said, "I'm not angry, don't be angry either......"
Tang Ning said angrily: "Nonsense, you are my sister!" ”
Su Mei looked at him and asked with a smile, "Since you know that I am your sister, you still don't listen to your sister?" ”
Tang Ning closed his eyes and took a deep breath, and a jailer walked in and said, "My lord, the old woman has come out." ”
Tang Ning walked out, and the old woman walked from inside, walked up to him, and said, "Can you find a way to release her?" ”
"Let it go?" Tang Ning was angry when he saw this old face, and said angrily: "You should be in this prison opened by your family, come if you want, and leave if you want?" ”
The old woman stretched out her hand and wiped the saliva on her face, not knowing why he was so angry, and stood in place for a while.
