Incidents frequently arise quietly
"What's the uproar? Get out of the way, get out of the way! A loud shout rang out from outside the circle, instantly overshadowing the commotion here, and the crowd gradually quieted down, and a path spread out from the outer circle.
Zidi turned his head to look, and four or five officers and soldiers with knives were coming from the way out, led by their leader. Zidi stood up, brushed her wrinkled skirt, and stepped aside, exposing the faint man to the sight of several officers and soldiers.
The old man Huang Yao was a little weak at the moment, and now he hadn't waited for Lu Ci, so he couldn't leave Huizhou City, these officers and soldiers naturally couldn't be provoked, if these people were provoked, I was afraid that there would be no place for him to stand in Huizhou City.
The officers and soldiers at the head stood beside the man who fell to the ground, glanced at him condescendingly, frowned, and there was a hint of majesty in his sight, swept everyone over, pointed to the people on the ground and asked loudly, "What is going on?" ”
The part of the people who knew the details of the old man immediately shrank their eyes, looked at the ground in front of their feet and kept silent. They were really worried that the old man would retaliate afterwards, so it was important for Mingzhe to protect himself.
However, some people, because they didn't know, were fearless, and they couldn't see anyone doing evil in public, so they quickly confessed the culprit of the old man.
The officers and soldiers turned to look at this strange-looking old man, their faces were cold, and they said sharply: "Why are you committing murder here and seeking people's lives? Seeing that you are old, you never thought that you should do such evil things. ”
The man on the ground had regained consciousness, and the fiery red color on his face had receded. He raised a hand with difficulty, pointed at the old man with trembling eyes, his eyes were full of pleading, looked at the officer and soldier, and his voice was hoarse and weak: "My lord, you, you must ...... I want to be the master of the small and small people, I, with this person, have no grudges before! ”
"The old man made an unintentional mistake, but it was a momentary carelessness, and I hope to forgive me. Besides, the old man has given the antidote to this little brother. The old man's eyes were deep and sharp, he glanced at the man on the ground, and then smiled and arched his hand to the leader of the officers and soldiers, and his words were quite sincere.
The officer and soldier looked the old man up and down with an inquiring gaze, and soon seemed to have a judgment in his heart, bowed his head slightly, and said to himself: "Strange appearance, a pair of yin owl eyes, hum, at first glance, it is not a good type." ”
"Someone, take this person away for me, and wait for disposal!" The officers and soldiers shouted loudly, waved one hand, and the two people in the team walked out in response, wanting to do something to the old man.
The old man with yellow taro has changed color, and he is in a dilemma at the moment, if he is caught and his previous evil deeds are discovered, then he will not be allowed to eat in a prison cell, or his life will not be guaranteed.
But if he resisted, it would have been even worse. He is naturally not afraid of these people, but the force behind these people is the city guard of Huizhou City, and he does not have the ability to oppose the imperial court. Besides, the person he was waiting for hadn't come back yet, if he was chased out of Huizhou, then who would give him the antidote?
Just when the old man was in a dilemma, the two officers and soldiers had already approached and were about to start arresting him. In a hurry, he didn't care to think about it anymore, and flew out of the crowd with a jump, and the afterimage quickly disappeared behind a roof, leaving only one voice: "The old man won't toss with you, so he left first." Apprentice, remember the words of the teacher and think about it. ”
At this moment, the twilight is drowning, the city gate is closed, and the old man wants to get out of the city, which is absolutely impossible. The officer and soldier thought of that, and immediately ordered his men: "Send someone to chase me." ”
"You guys, send this man to the medical officer." The officers and soldiers glanced at the frail man on the ground again, and randomly dispatched two men from the crowd watching the bustle. He turned his gaze to Zidi and asked coldly, "Are you the apprentice of that old thief?" ”
"My lord, how could the folk girl be his apprentice?" Zidi shook her head and denied it, she was resentful of this old man with yellow taro in her heart, and even if she escaped, she even had to pull her into the water.
The officer and soldier obviously didn't fully believe Zidi's words, stared at her again and again, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a sneer: "Empty words, routine, we still have to arrest you first, and when the matter is clear, if you are really innocent, we will let you go." ”
When Zidi heard this, his face turned a little pale, and he was really miserable by the old man this time. She waved her hands desperately, and said urgently: "My lord, how can this work? I have nothing to do with the old thief. If she goes to prison, it will be Lu Fu and her master who will be involved in the end, and that is the last thing she wants to cause.
"My lord, this girl, we know each other, and we can testify that she really has nothing to do with the wicked person just now."
"This girl is a medical woman, and she also saw the old man last time."
"That's right, just now it was because of this girl's righteous action that the poisoned brother Tai was saved in time."
"It's that thief who is not ashamed and pesters this girl to death."
……
In the crowd of onlookers, some people spoke out one after another, telling everything they knew, as a testimony for Zidi. They can't let this officer and soldier wronged a doctor, as long as it is a human being, there is no one who is not sick, and they naturally have to do their best to defend it.
The crowd was gossiping for a while, shouting and shouting, and it started to make a noise, which directly caused the officer and soldier to have a headache, and couldn't help frowning, and shouted loudly: "Shut up for me!" The merits will be ascertained. ”
"My lord, he is from our Lu Mansion, and he really has nothing to do with the old man of Yellow Taro." Lu Bo stepped forward with a kind smile and arched his hand at the officer and soldier.
This place is not far from the Lu Mansion, which alarmed the onlookers of the Lu Mansion's gatekeepers. When a few people saw that it was Zidi, they told Lu Bo, who had just returned home, to Lu Bo, who had just returned home, and Lu Bo came in a hurry.
After a while of conversation between the two, the officer and soldier finally understood the whole story, and finally dispelled the idea of catching the purple flute.
Moreover, his attitude has also changed a lot, and he actually smiled faintly at Zidi: "It turned out to be the junior sister of Lu Ci's little brother, and I was offended by today's incident." ”
Zidi was a little stunned, how could this have anything to do with her senior brother again, I have to say that her warm-hearted senior brother is very popular.
"It's okay, just explain the misunderstanding clearly." Zi Di raised the corners of her mouth very unnaturally, very uncomfortable with the transformation of the officers and soldiers. If Lu Bo hadn't come out in time to relieve the siege today, I'm afraid she would have been forcibly arrested by him.
The three of them chatted briefly, and then the officer and soldier shouted softly to the onlookers, and then they dispersed, and he followed.
The sky is hazy, the lights are on, and the night market has just begun. Zidi followed Lu Bo to Lu Mansion, she looked back and thought about what had just happened, it was really helpless, and finally thanked the people beside her: "Uncle Lu, thank you for coming forward to help this time, otherwise this prison will be fixed." ”
"Don't thank me, it's as it should be." Lu Bo walked with his hands in his hands, and his voice was calm. Now that Zidi is a person from the Lu Mansion, when she encounters problems, he will naturally not stand idly by.
Today, he has inexplicably become the target of public criticism, and this person is a big loss. Zidi was angry when she thought of the treacherous face of the old man Huang Yao, and a mouthful of silver teeth was sharpened and sharpened by her: "It's all that thief, when the senior brother comes back, you must tell him about this person's evil deeds, so as not to give the thief an antidote!" ”
Hearing Zidi say this, Lu Bo was a little speechless, just shook his head with a smile and continued to walk forward. He saw the changes in Zidi, and now this girl has become much more confident, and she is like a submissive appearance when she first entered the Lu Mansion. Even now that she has been in contact with his stupid son for a long time, this girl will occasionally use some of the little temperament that a girl should have.
Night has come, and the house is lit up. After Zidi arrived at the house, she went back to her room and washed up briefly, and then went to Ling Xiao's courtyard to prepare to change the dressing for Ling Xiao. These days, every day, she will always take matters into her own hands for the sword wounds that Ling Xiao suffered.
As soon as Zidi entered the house, Que'er noticed that her face was wrong, and couldn't help asking, "Miss Zidi, who made you angry?" ”
"It's all that old thief!" Zidi gritted her teeth. It's okay not to mention it, but this mention made a lot of fire in her heart.
Que'er handed Zidi a cup of tea, and when she saw Zidi so angry, the curiosity on her face became more and more intense, and she asked, "Is that the yellow-skinned thin old man?" Anyway, you can't beat the eight poles, how can he get involved with you? ”
Zidi was irritable in her heart, drank the tea in her hand in a big gulp, and then told all about today's events. Hearing this, the finch was stunned, a little incredulous, looked at Zidi with her mouth slightly open, frowned and said, "How dare he openly commit murder on the street?" That's too bold, isn't it? still want to rob you as an apprentice, and finally drag you into the water? Isn't that brazen? Mr. Duan was kind to him not long ago! Such a person is really rare, and whoever he changes will be annoyed. Purple flute girl, you can't learn this harmful thing. ”
"What? He wants to be an apprentice and wants to go crazy, right? Ling Xiao, dressed in a purple dress, lifted the smoke curtain and walked out of it, with a hint of mockery and laughter in his tone.
It was not the first time that Ling Xiao had seen the old man robbing an apprentice, if it wasn't for the last time he robbed an apprentice, how could he have been fed Gu poison by Lu Ci. But it's not difficult to understand when you think about it, he's a half-cut person who is buried in the earth, and he is unwilling to bury his life's work in the soil with him, so now he is so crazy looking for someone to inherit the mantle, and there are very few people who really have talent in this area, and few people are willing to learn, so they have to rely on robbery.
Zidi wiped away the anger on her face when she heard the voice, put down the teacup and turned to Ling Xiao: "Sister, is she better today?" ”
"Well, it's much better." Ling Xiao nodded slightly.
"Second Miss, what do you mean by that? Could it be that this old man has done such brazen things before? You must know that you will talk about it for the slave and maid. ”
Que'er's curiosity was heavy, and under her blinking eyes and begging, Ling Xiao had to tell the two of them about some of the ridiculous things she had witnessed that the old man had done, and when she finished speaking, the medicine on the wound had basically been changed.
