Chapter 87: Who Uses a Clever Hand to Steal Holy Water
On the way back, I was always tired, but because I managed to get the holy water. Everyone's hearts are also satisfied.
Everyone galloped all the way on their horses, and the fields outside the pass swept by. They ran all the way to Shanhaiguan. When they came to the county seat not far from Shanhaiguan that day, they saw the child.
At that time, they came to a restaurant to eat, Zhu Houzhao and Mu Lan Zhang Wenchang had one table, the guards sat at another table, and they also ordered the special dishes recommended by Xiao Er. When the dish is served, it is about to be eaten. They hear voices outside.
"You kid, you don't have the money to want steamed buns, get out of the way!" Everyone followed the sound and saw that Xiao Er was driving away a child, and the child was standing drooling in a daze at the steamed buns sold at the door.
"I'm hungry, please, big brother, I haven't eaten for three days!" The child kept begging, but the little two were unmoved.
"Go, go, go, these days, there are more people who don't have anything to eat, go find your own father and mother!" Xiao Er said.
"My father and mother died a long time ago, and I wandered everywhere! Please, big brother, give me one! The child begged bitterly, and looked very pitiful.
"Get out, if you don't get out of here, I'll fight!" The little two started to get angry, and he raised his hand.
Seeing this, Mu Lan was a little unbearable, "Lord, let's let him come over for dinner, okay?" ”
"Okay!" Zhu Zhaohou was also a little unbearable, since the people of the world are all kings, why is there still a reason for not having food. He did look at the kid pitifully.
"Come, little kid, come to us for dinner!" Mullan went and called the kid.
The kid seemed to see a great savior, and he immediately came over.
Looking at his little black hands, "Let's go, you have to wash your hands, I'll take you!" Mullan said.
When the child sat down, he was unceremonious, he ate hard, the local famous dish mountain and sea chicken, he picked it up, and gnawed on it, and quickly finished gnawing one, Zhu Zhaohou and Mu Lan both looked at him and laughed.
When the child was full, he looked at everyone, and he was a little embarrassed, "I'm sorry, I'm so hungry, you haven't eaten!" ”
"It's okay, kid, it's good if you eat well," Zhu Houzhao said.
"Child, what is your name, and where are your relatives at home?" Zhu Zhaohou asked.
"Uncle, my name is Ma Wu, my relatives are dead, I wander around alone, and I didn't eat the next meal! Maybe you won't even starve to death one day! "The child said so miserably.
"In this case, you come with me, I'll take you to Beijing, and I'll find you a place to have a home, okay?" Zhu Houzhao said that he thought in his heart that he would be able to take it back to Beijing and hand it over to the care of a minister.
"Thank you, uncle, thank you!" The child immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Zhu Houzhao.
"Don't be like this, as long as you are obedient and not naughty, your life will be fine in the future!" Zhu Zhaohou sighed and said.
"I must be obedient, I used to listen to my father and mother the most! My father and mother are gone, and I don't think there is any place to be good," the child said pitifully.
"That's good!" Zhu Houzhao said, "Zhang Wenchang! You've got you to take care of this child! He is always with you and sleeps with you at night."
The child's eyes showed a glowing look of joy at this moment, but the light disappeared in an instant, turning into a banal look of gratitude. Zhu Zhaohou saw it, and he muttered a little in his heart.
Zhu Houzhao and his entourage continued to walk to Beijing, the kid was with Zhang Wenchang all the way, and he liked to ask questions from east to west. Zhang Wenchang is really a little helpless, but this kid is very sensible, and he will coax people after asking, and Zhang Wenchang is not tired of him.
When they were about to arrive not far from Beijing, early that morning, Zhang Wenchang suddenly came to Zhu Houzhao's room, "Lord, it's not good!" ”
Zhang Wenchang said.
"What's wrong?" Zhu Zhaohou opened the door and let him in.
"Holy water, holy water is gone!" Zhang Wenchang said.
"Holy water gone?" Zhu Zhaohou was taken aback. "How did you not see it?"
"This morning, when I got up, I saw that the kettle was gone! The first thing I do when I get up in the morning is to check the kettle! Zhang Wenchang said.
"Did you show any signs last night?" Zhu Houzhao said calmly.
"No! Everything works! It's just that the little kid, Ma Wu, is gone! “
When Zhu Houzhao heard that Ma Wu was gone, he sighed in his heart, he knew that this must be a bureau.
I was deceived, that kid must have been sent by the enemy, he didn't steal anything, only stole holy water, and he must have come with a plan.
He was a little annoyed, and at this time Mu Lan came over, and after she heard Zhang Wenchang's words, she immediately reacted.
"I'm sorry, lord! I didn't expect that kid to have a problem! Mullan said.
"What do we do now?" Mullan asked.
Zhu Houzhao thought for a while, "Zhang Wenchang, you immediately send a guard to the county office with this token to report the case, and say that Lord Jinyiwei has lost something important, you let them tell them the shape of the silver kettle, and let them close the city gate and search everywhere." Then we all hurried away, and from now on we will not rest until we enter the palace! ”
"Yes, my lord, I'll do it right away!" Zhang Wenchang said, and then he quickly went out.
"My lord, what is your purpose in doing this? Isn't there still a bottle of holy water? Mullan said.
"You don't know, if we don't do this, the enemy will feel that we are not nervous and will definitely attack, and if we search everywhere like this, they will think that they have succeeded, and they will only celebrate! In fact, the holy water will definitely not be recovered, and the child is estimated to not be able to be recovered, and I have found out in the past few days that he is not a simple child. Zhu Zhaohou said.
"Yes, I also found that something is wrong in the past two days, I remember that there is a kung fu in the martial arts called the bone shrinking method, and there is a kung fu called returning the face gong, if you specialize in practicing these two kung fu, you can make yourself a child at any time, last time the daughter of the leader of the Tianyu gang seems to have practiced this kung fu. This time, this kid should be a master of this, and I don't know where the enemy found such a master," said Mullan.
"Yes, this kid, I always felt that he spoke and acted as if he were acting! It's just that I didn't expect him to act so quickly," Zhu Houzhao said, "Okay, we are non-stop now, hurry back to the palace to avoid long nights and dreams!" Zhu Zhaohou said.
"Yes, my lord!" Mullan said.
At this time, all the guards were ready, and Zhu Houzhao quickly led everyone downstairs to set off.
Along the way, he asked everyone to be non-stop, and he was very careful at all times. Every time I eat, I try to buy dry food, eat it right away, and leave.
Don't live in an inn or a restaurant, so they ran all the way and finally came to the Forbidden City.
When he saw the tall red wall of the Forbidden City, Zhu Zhaohou finally breathed a sigh of relief.
