Chapter 196: News
This person is none other than Ah Ji.
Ah Ji didn't ride a horse, horses are valuable materials, and without Jiang County Lieutenant to follow, riding a horse on this country road is too eye-catching.
He did not drive a mule cart, but changed out of his brocade robe during the day, wore a coarse cloth clothes, carried a sack, dressed as a peasant, and walked towards Dafeng Village.
When he was about to arrive at Dafeng Village, he did not enter the village immediately, but hid in a forest with new leaves, and hid until Zi Shi, when he came out of the woods, took a path, and came to Qin's house.
Knock knock, knock~
Ah Ji knocked on the door of the Qin family's courtyard.
In the hall, the three ancestors and grandchildren of the Qin family had been waiting for him for a long time, and when they heard the knock on the door with three long and one short, Qin Erlang was overjoyed, and said in a low voice: "It's the secret code of the border army comrades." ”
In the Northwest Frontier Army, there is its own code, and three long and one short is one of them.
If you encounter unknown soldiers during a surprise attack at night, they will make three long and one short sounds, and if the response is the opposite, that is, one long and three short, then it proves that they are their own people.
Qin Lao was not so relieved, and said in a low voice: "This code is not new as long as anyone who has fought a surprise attack in the northwest border army, don't let down your guard first, wait for him to come in, and see what he wants to do." ”
Qin Sanlang nodded: "Grandpa is right. ”
He said to Qin Lao and Qin Erlang: "I'll open the door, and grandpa and second brother will do as they say." ”
When Qin Erlang heard this, he turned around and entered the inner room, ambushed first, preparing that if something was wrong, he would immediately attack.
Qin Lao, as a person who was tempted to negotiate, stayed in the hall and waited.
Qin Saburo opened the door of the house, walked to the back of the courtyard door, looked out through the crack in the door, and saw that there was only one person standing at the door, so he opened the plug of the courtyard door and opened the courtyard door.
Ah Ji smiled at Qin Sanlang and said to him: "Don't worry, only Ah Ji came alone, and there was no second person." ”
As he spoke, he walked towards the hall.
Qin Saburo didn't believe Ah Ji's words, hid a dagger in his sleeve, followed behind Ah Ji, and entered the hall with his front and back feet.
Ah Ji glanced at the hall and didn't see Qin Erlang, so he didn't care, but looked at Qin Lao: "Junior, Ah Ji, I've seen General He." ”
This old general He is also a legend, originally a domestic slave, but because he followed the master's family to the battlefield and made great achievements, he was able to leave his nationality and be crowned a general.
originally thought that he would be able to be prominent in this life, but unfortunately he lost his son in middle age, and when he was old, Yizi's family and the previous master family were all executed.
"Old General He is Gao Yi, Ah Ji admires."
General He Lao could have stayed out of the matter, but for the sake of Yizi's family and the former master's family, he cheated to death on the battlefield and fled with the children of the two families.
Qin Lao looked at Ah Ji and said, "You recognize the wrong person, the old man's surname is Qin, he is a clay-legged man, not a general." ”
Ah Ji smiled: "Old General He, you don't have to be so vigilant, Ah Ji is here on his own behalf and has nothing to do with the Ning family." ”
"What do you mean?" Old Qin frowned and looked at Ning Ji.
The Ning family has a rebellious young son, since the death of Mrs. Ning, he left the Ning family, went out to travel, Da Chu was run all over by him, and then ran to Da Rong to live for a few years, and finally formed a caravan with people, in Da Chu and Da Rong to do business.
Da Chu and Da Rong have always had wars, and Old Man Ning was very angry by what this young son did.
Old man Ning has always loved this young son, even if this young son does something ridiculous, Old Man Ning is reluctant to expel him from the house, and Ah Ji will go back to Ning's house every year to visit Old Man Ning.
The relationship between their father and son was not as bad as it seemed to the outside world, so Qin Lao didn't dare to believe his words easily.
Ah Ji said with a smile: "General He doesn't have to be so jealous, Ah Ji said that he only came on behalf of himself this time, and it has nothing to do with the Ning family or my father." And Ah Ji came this time just to send you three messages, and he didn't have any other meaning. ”
"What's the news?" Qin Erlang couldn't help it, walked out of the back room, stared at Ah Ji and asked, "Is there any news from the British Mansion?" ”
Qin Sanlang and Qin Lao saw him come out, their faces were very ugly, why was he so impulsive every time?!
Ah Ji ignored the lawsuit between their 'ancestors and grandchildren', and his smile deepened when he heard this, and said, "Yes, one of the news is about the British government. ”
"Speak quickly!" Qin Erlang couldn't wait for a moment, and urged Ah Ji: "Is the British Mansion okay?" Did the emperor blame their family? ”
The third lady of the British Mansion was married to him, although the two had not yet married, but the emperor was a small-bellied chicken intestine, and he was ruthless, if he offended the British Mansion because of this family matter, then he would be a sinner.
Seeing Qin Erlang's anxious appearance, Ah Ji's smile was a little unpredictable, and he first said to Qin Sanlang behind him: "Little Hou Ye, you put away the dagger first, Ah Ji doesn't have a weapon on his body, and his skills are not as good as you, you don't have to keep holding the dagger at the back of Ning's neck." ”
Qin Sanlang didn't speak, and the dagger in his hand didn't put away.
Seeing this, Ah Ji had no choice but to pick up Fang Cai's words and say to Qin Erlang: "The third lady has entered the palace and has become a concubine. ”
Therefore, there is no need to think about the British Mansion anymore, and there is no need to think about the third lady, the British Mansion has already sold their house in order to protect itself.
"What did you say?!" Qin Erlang's eyes were about to split, and he directly rushed over and grabbed Ah Ji's clothes, and said angrily: "Nonsense, this is impossible!" The eldest lady of the British Mansion is already a concubine, and it is impossible for the same mansion to send two young ladies into the palace. ”
Isn't it a laugh for two sisters to serve a husband together?
Ah Ji was not angry, let Qin Erlang pull his clothes, and said slowly: "Three months ago, Concubine Shu died in childbirth. ”
And he also got the news that as early as five months ago, the British government decided to send the third lady to the palace.
The third lady was married to Qin Erlang, and only by sending her to the palace to serve the saint could she show the attitude of the British government.
But seeing Qin Erlang's angry appearance, he didn't tell him the news, lest he couldn't stand the stimulation.
"What's the second message?" Qin Saburo asked behind Ah Ji.
Ah Ji's smile this time was more hearty: "The second is good news, there are people in both of you who have survived, and now, like you, have been hidden." ”
"Who survived?!" Qin Erlang and Qin Sanlang were excited, it was great that there were still people alive in the two of them.
Ah Ji shook his head: "This matter is too secret, I just received the news, as for who survived, I don't know yet." ”
"Still, it should be some of your uncles."
If it was some women who survived, the emperor would not be angry, and he would not have ordered a large-scale search for two men over the age of thirty.
"It's good to survive, it's good to survive." Qin Lao said in a choked voice, no matter who survived, as long as there was still a living mouth.
