Chapter 446: Chivalrous Tenderness
In the dead of night, in a room deep in the Shao family, the dim light was beating, illuminating the face of a woman at the head of the bed more and more pale. She stared blankly at the sleeping child, and her already red and swollen eyes seemed to be unable to cry anymore. Since Ah Wang and Ah Cai were also taken away, and the few wolf-like sergeants said that they would be executed together with the master, she knew that the Shao family's sky had fallen. If that's all, she can still take the child to her uncle Shen Yingkui when she turns around. But in the evening, she deliberately made some dough and went to curry favor with the sergeants, and when she wanted to find out some news, she heard something even more terrible.
The government refused to let go of Shao Yi, a three-year-old child!
But what if you hear it? She is a female streamer, she has no power to restrain the chicken, and she can't even climb the high wall, even if she is willing to sacrifice herself, how can she save the only bit of blood and blood of the master?
Fuyun waited for Shao Yi, and at this moment, he couldn't help but tremble and stroked the child's soft hair, and couldn't help resenting Shao Fang, who should have died at this moment. If Shao Fang wasn't ambitious, if he had to get involved in the kind of battle between high-ranking officials in the court, how could he harm his family? Poor Shao Yi is only three years old, she has not yet enjoyed life, and she has not yet married a wife and had children...... Thinking about it, Fuyun couldn't help but fall on top of him and sobbed silently. The sound of crying woke up the child in bed, and he opened his eyes in a daze, and opened his mouth to cry, "Daddy! ”
Hearing this father, Fu Yun suddenly remembered that he had worked hard to coax Shao Yi to sleep, and he regretted it. However, before she could find a way to coax the young master, she suddenly heard a creaking sound outside. With a beat in her heart, she almost subconsciously hid Shao Yi behind her. But all the sharp blades in the house were all taken away by the officers and soldiers. Even kitchen knives are no exception. Therefore, she could only take out the golden hairpin hidden on the side of the pillow and hide it in her sleeve, and recited all the gods and Buddhas in her mind.
Finally, the door was gently pushed open, and a figure leaped in. At the moment when Fuyun raised his heart to his throat, he only heard someone call softly: "Ah Yi, Ah Yi?" ”
"Uncle!" Fu Yunden cried with joy, and she hurriedly picked up Shao Yi. rushed over quickly, and seeing that it was Shen Yingkui who entered the door, she hurriedly stuffed Shao Yi into Shen Yingkui's arms, and said quickly, "Uncle came just in time, take the young master away!" ”
Shen Yingkui, who was dressed in black, saw Shao Yizheng looking at him with round eyes, thinking that Shao Fang was dead, the Shao family's property had also been confiscated, and the only person this orphan could rely on in the future was himself, so he couldn't help but hold him tightly in his arms. Only then did he look at Fuyun in front of him and said, "What about you?" ”
"Uncle, you take the young master away, and I'll stay." Fuyun gritted his teeth. "I have bound my feet since I was a child, and I can't walk fast at night, which will only drag you down." You guys go! ”
Shen Yingkui knew that what Fu Yun said was right, and if he hesitated at this moment, he would not be able to leave, he took a deep breath, and then put Shao Yi down, but he gave Fu Yun a deep look, and then ordered her to find the rope. At this time, he squatted down and said to Shao Yi: "Ah Yi, haven't you kept asking me, what is it like to walk on the wall?" Tonight, my brother-in-law will take you to see and learn, and then take you back to Wujin. But you have to remember that you can't make the slightest sound, otherwise those mountain spirits and ghosts hidden in the dark will eat us and Uncle Lang together, understand? ”
Shao Yi couldn't understand the conversation between Shen Yingkui and Fu Yun before, but he understood these words, and nodded solemnly when he landed. After a while, Fu Yun found a rope and a belt, changed Shao Yi into dark clothes, and then helped Shen Yingkui tie the three-year-old child firmly behind his back. Before leaving, she rubbed the children and wept, and it took a long time before she put down her hand and watched them out of the house. She didn't want to think about how Shen Yingkui avoided the heavy defenses and got out of the Shao family and even out of the city, and after returning to the house, she glanced at the remaining silk belt and rope that she had just used, and suddenly had an idea.
However, she had just picked up the long silk ribbon and was about to throw it onto the beam, when her hand suddenly dropped. It is easy for her to die, but if Shao Yi disappears for no reason, wouldn't outsiders suspect Shen Yingkui for the first time? Although Shen Yingkui's falling out with his father-in-law more than a month ago is a well-known thing in the Shao family, it is difficult to hide the previous love for Weng and his son-in-law. Rather than that, she might as well take a gamble. Shen Yingkui should be able to get out of the city as quickly as possible! That being the case, after waiting for an hour or two, she managed to cry out for help, and now ......
She looked at the ropes scattered on the ground, took a deep breath, and immediately started to move.
There were only Shao Fang's youngest son Shao Yi and a servant girl left in the Shao family, and the sergeants guarding outside the Shao family naturally slacked off a lot. After all, the family members and Jianghu people who could fight before are no longer there, what can this woman and her son do? Several sergeants, who had been disturbed by the barking of cats and dogs on street corners for a while, whispered and yawned from time to time, and just when the atmosphere was relaxed, a cry suddenly came from the house: "Help! ”
Hearing that it was a woman's shrill voice, several sergeants glanced at each other, and at the same time their hearts were terrified. However, they did not leave their posts without permission, but separated two people to go in to find out. The two of them quickly came to the only room with the light in the whole house, kicked open the door and entered, only to see a woman with her hair tied behind her back, and a gagged cloth seemed to have just broken free and hung around her neck.
Seeing them come in, Fu Yun cried out with a crying voice: "The young master has been kidnapped!" Those people said that the master let them do things but didn't pay them, so they kidnapped the young master and sold them for money! ”
Shao Fang is dead, even if she splashes dirty water on her master at this time, she can't care about it!
At this moment, the two sergeants looked at each other, and they were both surprised. One of them hurriedly stepped forward to untie Fu Yun, and the other asked angrily, "When is it?" ”
"About half an hour ago!" Fu Yun deliberately delayed the time so as to make people think that Shao Yi was still in the city, and then cried so much that it rained, "Please save the young master, those guys are all outlaws, and they will definitely do what they say!" ”
Knowing that the matter was serious, the two sergeants didn't care about that much, and after searching the house and finding that there was indeed no Shao Yi's figure. Immediately set up Fuyun and went out. The following night. In Danyang City, chickens and dogs are jumping. The whole city was searched, but until dawn in the early morning, nothing was found. In desperation, a team of sergeants could only immediately escort Fuyun to Zhenjiang Mansion to treat Dantu.
In the guest room of the Wujin Mansion Ya Guan, Wang Fulin also did not sleep all night. He himself had just traveled from Danyang to Wujin yesterday, and he knew how far apart the two places were. Even if Shen Yingkui has a good horse, he has to fight back and forth, and the time is very tight. What's even more worrying is that it is almost impossible to climb into the city at dawn. It's not impossible to disguise yourself and go to the city gate, but it's not easy to sneak into the government office in broad daylight and then return to this guest room...... But none of this matters, the most important thing is that Shen Yingkui has to take a three-year-old child out of the house guarded by the Qi family's army, is it okay?
After all, he has seen Lu Guangwu and Shen Yingkui fight, but he has never seen whether the other party has the ability to fly on the wall!
In this way, in a restless state, Wang Fulin waited for the rooster to crow, and waited for the movements from the outside, and found that many people had already gotten up. Just when his heart hung in the air. secretly wondered if he really didn't know what to say when he turned around, and then no matter what happened to Shen Yingkui. At this time, he finally heard the sound of the door that had been hidden being pushed open. He got out of bed and ran over without even putting on his shoes, only to see Shen Yingkui cover the door with his backhand, put on the latch again, and smiled at the corner of his mouth. Even though it was just that expression, he immediately understood.
This Shen Yingkui really brought his wife and brother Shao Yi out from the heavily guarded Shao family! This guy is really good!
"I am temporarily fostered in a family outside the city that has received my favor. Ah Yi was very obedient, and I told him that if he could stay there obediently for a month, I would teach him martial arts in the future. Although Shen Yingkui couldn't see any dust on his body, his tired expression and bloodshot eyes could see that he had been exhausted all night, running back and forth. He didn't go to bed and lie down, but said to Wang Fulin, "While the government hasn't been ordered yet, Su Tuiguan is still there, let's go see him, and then go home." ”
Wang Fulin naturally had no objections. When he and Shen Yingkui looked like they didn't wake up with a hangover - in fact, they hadn't slept all night and went to visit Su Tuiguan, and when they said goodbye and left embarrassedly, Su Tuiguan even opened his mouth to comfort Shen Yingkui a few words, and invited him to come back often. Wang Fulin responded vaguely, and when he returned to Shao's house, he didn't care about that much, but he fell asleep.
It was an unknown amount of time before I woke up. He casually put on his clothes and pulled his shoes out of the house, only to find that it was already dark outside, and there were bursts of crying from the innermost courtyard. After being stunned, he knew that even if the news of Shao Fang's death might not have been officially reported on the Dantu's side, Shen Yingkui probably wouldn't hide it from his wife all the time.
Although Shen Yingkui had told his wife Shaw Brothers the news of rescuing his brother-in-law, Shaw Brothers was still grief-stricken when he learned of his father's death. She was already in poor health, and she was suddenly hit by such a huge blow, if it weren't for her husband by her side, and a pair of children and younger brothers were still reminding her, I was afraid that she would like to put on her wings and fly to Dantu at this moment. And Shen Yingkui waited until his wife, who had broken his liver and intestines, finally fell asleep, and he didn't close his eyes for two days and two nights before he got up, but he stumbled and almost couldn't stand steadily. Even so, he still opened his mouth and ordered, "Prepare the horse, I will go to the Dantu." ”
As soon as the words fell, he heard a voice from outside the door: "Brother Shen, even if it is for the sake of Mrs. Zun and children, you should take a break for the time being, and it is not too late to set off tomorrow morning." People cannot be resurrected after death, but the living are great! ”
Seeing Wang Fulin push the door in, Shen Yingkui hesitated for a moment, just wanted to insist, but he didn't expect Wang Fulin to continue: "I'll go with you tomorrow, and I'm just in a hurry to go back to Yangzhou." ”
Turning his head and glancing at his wife on the bed, Shen Yingkui thought about it, and finally had to admit that what Wang Fulin said was true. It would take a day to get to Dantu, and his current situation was probably unbearable for such a long journey. Don't think about yourself, but also for the sake of your wife and children, as well as your young brother-in-law. From now on, everything can only depend on him!
PS: In the late Ming Dynasty, Confucianism prevailed, and people such as He Xinyin were praised as fighting dragons and snakes with their bare hands, although it was a bit exaggerated, but it can be seen. At the beginning of the month, I will continue to ask for the support of the monthly pass, thank you all (to be continued......)
