Chapter 271: Steward Shen
Wei Wu nodded, the two of them didn't speak, just sat quietly in this cave to rest, and then no one came to check for half a day, and no half drop of water and half rice was sent, the two stayed until dark, and there was no light outside, and there were no five fingers in the hole.
Wei Wu and the two had already seen the direction, at this time along the steps to touch up, to the top of the steps, then reached out at the bottom of the head and gently pushed the slate, although the slate is heavy but there is no door lock or the like, a crack appeared with a hard push, Wei Wu made his eyes, looked at it for a long time, and found that there were two guards at the gate in the back flower courtyard, and there was no one left.
This car quietly pushed open the stone cover, Zhao Jiuting supported his head underneath, let Wei Wu get out first, and then Zhao Jiuting drilled out again, looked at the direction, and the two found a hidden corner to go out over the wall, and when the two disappeared into the darkness, the two people guarding the door were still unaware.
This house is not big, the two of them easily touched the main house, looked in from the back window, but saw the middle-aged man I saw this morning, sitting in the study eating tea, in front of a woman, with apricot eyes and peach cheeks very marked, Wei Wu raised his eyebrows,
He knew this woman!
It turned out to be Lu Ziyu's widow!
This is really nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it!
But I heard the woman say,
"Dad, I got two more today, is this number enough?"
The middle-aged man frowned and said,
"It's still not enough! There are still four left! ”
The woman wondered,
"I don't give ten every time, how can I have fifteen this time?"
The middle-aged man snorted when he heard this,
"This is not the bad thing about the dead ghost Lu Ziyu, he had already told him to be cautious and not public, but he didn't listen to the frequent correspondence with Mi Zhongnan, and finally was grabbed by Jinyiwei, so that he was also implicated, if he hadn't fed Zhao Lin with silver earlier, the big thing would have been ruined in his hands! Now that he is dead, the delivery has been delayed...... There are a lot of people owed in front, and there are more people who have died recently, and they have already sent people to urge, and my father has to change ten people to fifteen! ”
The woman pleaded,
"Isn't this Ziyu's dedication to doing things for his master!"
The middle-aged man was even more annoyed when he heard this,
"I said earlier that I was not in a hurry, but he wanted to rush forward, and now he has killed himself, and he almost affected you!"
The woman still answered,
"He was very faithful to his master and father......"
"Humph! If it weren't for his loyalty, if he slept outside and played with women, my father and I would not have spared him......"
After that, he scolded his daughter with some hatred of iron and steel,
"You are a brainless person, you only look at the face of a man, Lu Ziyu's father said that he is unreliable, you want to marry him, and now as soon as he dies, you will be a widow...... You have to look carefully when you pick a man in the future! ”
The woman nodded,
"Dad, don't worry! This time, my daughter not only has to pick her appearance, but also her conduct, and she can't let him spend all his time with our family's silver! ”
"Hmm!"
The middle-aged man nodded, but saw that the woman reached out and pulled the middle-aged man's sleeve and said,
"Daddy...... I saw two men in the cave in the ground who were born well and were strong, so it was better to get them to my daughter's house before I could send them away......
The middle-aged man frowned,
"Stop!"
The woman immediately tore up and said,
"Daddy! Lu Ziyu has been dead for so long, and her daughter is still alone in the empty room! ”
As she spoke, she pulled her sleeves and shook them, but the middle-aged man made trouble with her.
"Stop! Be careful, don't die like last time, now this sturdy man is getting harder and harder to find, if Lu Ziyu hadn't died, the end would have been out of stock, and my father wouldn't have gone out in person......"
When the woman saw that he agreed, she immediately nodded with joy and said,
"Yes, yes, yes! Father...... You can rest assured! ”
After that, he went out happily, Wei Wu and Zhao Jiuting glanced at each other outside, and said secretly in their hearts,
"This is Lao Tzu's favorite daughter, the son-in-law can't spend all day drinking, but the daughter can steal men in the room!"
"How?"
Zhao Jiuting glanced at Wei Wu and pointed to the inside of the room, what do you mean now?
Wei Wu smiled and suddenly got up, stretched out his hand and pressed on the windowsill, and then he turned over and jumped into the study from the back window, the man in the study was sitting quietly in the chair, and suddenly there was a flower in front of him, and a tall man turned in from the window, and was immediately surprised and inexplicable, but he looked closely but it was a farmer selling vegetables in the west market in front of him, and he was just about to open his mouth to shout, and he was put a dagger against his throat, Wei Wu lowered his voice and said coldly,
"If you want to die, you can scream now!"
The middle-aged man was so frightened that he immediately shut up, and looked out of the window with a frightened look at another man, it was the pair of farmer uncles and nephews, Zhao Jiuting saw that Wei Wu restrained this person, so he went over lightly, looked out from the crack in the door, there was no one outside, only the family with knives walked in line, obviously patrolling.
Zhao Jiuting walked back, and saw that Wei Wu had already moved a chair and sat next to the man, but while playing with the dagger in his hand, he asked the middle-aged man,
"Who is your master?"
The middle-aged man glared and said,
"What master? The master from there! ”
Wei Wu sneered, and the dagger slashed across his cheek, leaving a shallow scratch,
"We don't talk darkly, and our grandfather doesn't have the heart to go around in circles with you, if you talk honestly, it's fine, if you don't want to speak honestly......"
Wei Wu's dagger slashed from his cheek to his throat and then to his chest, the sharp blade cutting through his clothes, and the cold touch made the man's body tremble,
"You...... What do you want to do? Don't you look at what kind of place this is, and if you dare to kill people in this place, won't you be afraid of causing trouble to your family? ”
Wei Wu laughed when he heard this, but suddenly with a force in his hand, a knife pierced the man's shoulder, the man was caught off guard, and he was about to scream out when he opened his mouth, but Wei Wu jumped up, stepped on his thigh, and pressed one hand on his mouth,
"Mmmm......mmmm
The man snorted again and again, constantly struggling but was put behind his back by Zhao Jiuting, and then pushed up around the back of the chair, the man was about to bow forward, but was pressed by Wei Wu's mouth, so that the two of them joined forces before and after, so that he couldn't move, so he had to suffer this knife alive, and he could hear Wei Wuyin's compassion,
"If you are so faithful, if you want to die for your master, we will fulfill you, and give you three knives and six holes, and bleed to death, and your master will be very moved to see your tragic death, and will definitely give a large amount of money to comfort the ...... of your family."
After saying that, he suddenly drew the knife, and the pain made the man's body twitch, and when he saw the tip of Wei Wu's knife slashing on his chest, as if he was looking for a place to cut the knife, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, and shook his head desperately, Wei Wu sneered and said,
"How...... I don't like to be here...... That...... How about being stuck here? ”
But the tip of the knife suddenly probed down, and it was directly between the legs, and the man was so frightened that his eyes were about to bulge out, and suddenly his legs were wet, and he was scared to pee!
Wei Wu heard the sound of dripping, looked down, and couldn't help but say in disgust,
"Phew...... Such a small dare to do this knife head licking blood! ”
This gesture Zhao Jiuting let go of him, watched him cover his wounds, slipped to the ground sweating profusely, and kicked him with his toes at the moment,
"But it hurts badly? When I stab you again, if you have a new injury, the old injury will naturally not hurt! ”
Although the middle-aged man is also an errand worker, he is a steward, and he is used to being pampered on weekdays, but he has never suffered this kind of suffering, and he shook his head again and again without any backbone after this blow,
"A good man, spare his life! Don't prick it again! ”
Wei Wu snorted and squatted down to look at him,
"How...... I figured it out, but I still have to work for your master? ”
The man hesitated for a moment,
"This ...... This one...... Good man...... It's not that it's small, it's just ...... It's just that our master is powerful, if he knows that he betrayed him...... Certainly...... It must ......"
Wei Wu smiled when he heard this,
"What is there to be afraid of, but he is a vassal king who was enclosed in the Nanchang territory as a pig, is it still that our Jinyiwei is still afraid of him!"
The man was stunned when he heard this,
"You...... How do you know? You...... Are you Jinyiwei? ”
Wei Wu continued to lie to him,
"It's not a day or two for King Ning to rebel, you should buy Zhao Lin and everything will be fine? What a despise of our Jinyiwei! ”
The man had already heard of Jinyiwei's pervasive reputation, and when he heard Wei Wu say this, he was really fooled, and he no longer concealed it, so he responded,
"Your Excellency...... My lord...... This matter is all under the orders of the prince, and it is the prince who asked the little one to find the strong labor to send to Jiujiang to open a mine......"
Wei Wu listened and glanced at each other with Zhao Jiuting, knowing that he was going to make a full move, so he immediately pulled him to sit on the chair and said with a smile,
"Don't be in a hurry, speak slowly!"
The man sat down, while covering the wound and sizzling pain, while closing the plate to Wei Wu, this man's surname Shen Nai is a steward in the Ning Wangfu, their family has been passed down from the ancestors to rebel as the ultimate wish, since the ancestors moved to Nanchang Mansion, they have not forgotten to ask Zhu Di who speaks does not count to ask for half of the country, but unfortunately the plan has not been successful for several generations, until this generation of Ning Wang Zhu Chenhao.
This King Ning is a person who is willing to do practical things, knowing that the three armies have not moved, and the grain and grass go first, so he naturally wants to think of ways to raise military salaries, so that he can recruit troops and buy horses in the future, but he is a feudal king who is in captivity, and he has no military power in the local area, and he has no political power, so how can he raise soldiers with the annual rewards and income from the grange and so on.
