388 Fishing for people

That night, Tang Ruowang was left in the Xu Mansion by Xu Guangqi, anyway, there is no shortage of rooms in such a large mansion.

Walking to the window, Tang Ruowang looked up at the night sky, his heart full of helplessness. I just paraphrased Hu Guang's words, and Paul must say a basis for himself, how can there be any basis!

Now I have to recall Hu Guang's words and deeds by myself, hoping to have clues to tell him, so that he can find Hu Guang. Tang Ruowang is about to die of sorrow, that Hu Guang is a dragon who sees the head but does not see the tail, if he can know his address, he will tell it a long time ago!

Tang Ruowang recalled Xu Guangqi's anxious demeanor, and thought to himself that if he didn't say some clues, he was afraid that Paul would not let him go back. IN DESPERATION, HAN TANG COULD ONLY LOOK UP TO THE SKY AND SHOUT: "MYGOD, WHATSHOULDIDO?"

At the same time, Hu Guang was also looking up at Granny Moon, planning in his heart how to find John Tang early tomorrow morning.

"Second master, Escort Kang is back." One of the guards guarding the doorway suddenly whispered.

When Hu Guang heard this, he closed the window, walked to the table and sat down, Kang Quanan and An Yue entered the door.

"Second master, people haven't been released, those people are too dark!" Kang Quanan stood still and said a little angrily.

When Hu Guang heard this, his eyebrows furrowed slightly: "What's the matter?" ”

Kang Quanan looked at An Yue standing beside him, as if it was a little natural, so he said to himself: "Before, An ...... The young lady said that there were still five taels of silver missing, but who knew that when we went to ransom people with silver, the other party said that it would take thirty taels to release people! ”

An Yue, a young woman, came to a strange man's room after it was dark. Although the other party was the benefactor of her own family, although the door was open and there were other people standing, she was a little restrained and scared in the end.

But at this time, when I heard Kang Quanan talk about silver, I forgot about it all at once. A little angry said: "It is said that my brother broke the precious vase worth thirty taels of silver, my mother mortgaged the ancestral house to them, and sold all the things, saying that it was twenty-five taels of silver, and it was only a month, and it cost thirty taels." Loan sharks are not so ruthless! ”

In the early years of Chongzhen, silver was very valuable. Although there are only two houses that can be used as a faΓ§ade, they are also counted as twenty taels of silver.

The remaining five taels of silver, almost a month later, have to pay back thirty taels, which is equivalent to a very good house price, so I can't help but be happy or angry.

At this time, she didn't know the extent of the relationship between her eldest brother and her benefactor. Although she also wants to save her brother out, after all, taking a prison is not a place for people. But it costs so much money to others at once. She hesitated.

When Hu Guang heard this, he was a little unhappy, and said to Kang Quanan in a slightly questioning tone: "I remember that you have more than thirty taels on you, why didn't you give it?" ”

When Kang Quanan heard this, he was dumbfounded, and he didn't know how to answer, so he had to turn his head to look at the girl beside him.

An Yue listened, and her heart was moved. Thirty taels of silver. Just give it! She lowered her head and blessed and said, "Please don't blame him." It was the slave who didn't let him pay! ”

Since it was An Yue who made the decision, Hu Guang couldn't blame him, he immediately instructed Kang Quan'an: "You accompany Miss to go again tomorrow, no matter how much silver the other party offers, give the money first, and then take the person out." ”

He said so. It is estimated that those officials will increase the price tomorrow. A mouth costs thirty taels of silver, making it clear that it is a bamboo pole, or that he just doesn't want to let people go.

What kind of situation will the prison be, Hu Guang knows better than anyone else, anyway, people have to fish it out first. For him. What can be solved with money is not a problem!

Kang Quanan naturally knew what Hu Guang meant, and at the same time, he knew that he was not worried about money, but he was afraid of being entangled with people in the public family. Therefore, he immediately nodded in response, "Yes, sir." ”

On the previous trip, according to his original intention, it was naturally also for silver. It's just that An Yue refused, and his role at that time was naturally not easy to object. Now that he has Hu Guang's instructions, no matter who he is, he will pay first.

An Yue heard Hu Guang's instructions on the side, raised her head in surprise, and looked at Hu Guang in disbelief. No matter how much silver the other party offers, he will give money to take his younger brother out first, which is ...... This......

An Yue didn't know how to express her gratitude for a while, so she had to be blessed again, and then said in a low voice: "There is a curfew soon, and the slave family has to go back." ”

After the curfew at about half past eight o'clock in the evening, in addition to official business such as delivering letters to the government, or buying medicine for marriage, funeral, and illness, he was caught by a patrol soldier, and he was given fifty lashes.

"Well, good!" Hu Guang nodded, and said to Kang Quanan, "You send Miss back, stay there tonight, and go again tomorrow morning." By the way, I will talk to Brother An Gui, just say that I will do something tomorrow, so that he doesn't have to worry about it, and take care of his family first. ”

Kang Quanan heard the promise, and escorted An Yue and left in a hurry.

Hu Guang felt that things should be about the same, as for An Gui's side, with the diagnosis and treatment of a famous doctor in Beijing, his mother's body that was extremely injured because of her anger could also be adjusted.

With that in mind, he went to rest. After all, rushing all the way to Jingshi, even if he is young and in good health, he is a little tired.

Early the next morning, Hu Guang asked the innkeeper about the location of the Catholic Church in Beijing, and then hurried to visit John Tang.

The church is not big and the location is a bit out of the way. But it was a little strange that there were two soldiers guarding the entrance of the church.

Hu Guang was a little surprised, and asked the pedestrians on the side of the road to know that the original Catholic mission did not achieve much success in the Ming Dynasty, but because of the religious reasons of the Ming officials, such a church was built.

However, the content of Catholic propaganda conflicted with the customs and concepts of the Ming people, and some people even stormed the church, forcing the imperial court to send two soldiers to guard the door to avoid trouble.

After asking about the situation, Hu Guang had nothing to fear. He stepped forward with two guards and said to the gatekeepers, "I'm here to visit Godfather Tang Ruowang, please excuse me." ”

The guards on one side listened and immediately handed over the post that had been prepared for a long time.

But who knew that the tall man among the two soldiers heard this, and actually put the spear in his hand and said: "Go and go, what kind of trouble, see that Xiyi is not pleasing to the eye, don't bother us, go quickly!" ”

Hu Guang was stunned when he heard this, what is this? Suddenly, he understood, so he had to take out some copper coins, handed them over and said, "This big brother, I am an old friend with Father John Tong, and I really have something urgent to find him, and the trouble will be passed on, thank you!" ”

Money can make ghosts grind, the tall man took the copper coin, and suddenly said with a smile: "I thought you were the same as those splashes, pretending to find someone to go in and fight Xiyi!" (To be continued.) )
