Chapter 16: There are guests to listen to
As a result, there is such a big mistake now, and Liu Xianling is also panicked.
Liu Xianling is a Han person, but the prefect and the Taoist platform above are all from the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty.
Although the ancestors are also Han Chinese, they must not be seen as ordinary Han people.
Don't mention how to report Liu County's order.
At Wang Bantou's home, Wang Bantou's wife Yang was already crying and fainting.
It was fine when I went out last night, but I was carried back in the middle of the night.
Not only did he lose an arm, but he also had a high fever and was unconscious.
The doctor came to see it, and said that it would not be a big problem if he could wake up, and if he couldn't wake up, he could only prepare for the future.
This made Yang almost faint with fright.
An ordinary woman, where can she withstand this kind of change, she is at a loss for a while, and now she will only cry there.
The two children also cried and cried.
At this age, children do not yet understand what is happening, and when they see their mother crying, they cry along.
Let Wang Bantou's family cry.
Guo Hai, the shopkeeper of the teahouse, just rushed over when he heard the news.
As a result, before I entered the door, I heard a cry.
The frightened Guo Hai stumbled at his feet and almost fell.
Wang Bantou, this is gone?
Guo Hai didn't know what was going on at this time, but he heard that something had happened to Wang Bantou.
I didn't expect it to be so serious.
Guo Hai hurriedly strode in.
Wang Bantou was found lying on the bed, with a broken arm, and there were blood stains on the bandage.
"Sister-in-law, what's wrong?"
Yang heard the voice, and then stopped crying.
"Shopkeeper Guo, my husband is unconscious, and the doctor said that he can't wake up. . . ."
Speaking of this, Yang cried again.
Guo Hai breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, as long as the person was still there.
Guo Hai took a closer look and found that Wang Bantou was pale and angry.
However, this situation is really not optimistic, and if you can't wake up, you may really be gone.
Yesterday was fine, why did something suddenly happen.
Guo Hai was also puzzled.
According to Wang Bantou, yesterday they would go to Weijiazhuang to ambush.
Could it be that there was a conflict with the other party, and Wang Bantou was injured by mistake?
Guo Hai was annoyed in his heart, and he didn't know who hurt Wang Bantou, so he must seek justice for Wang Bantou.
Guo Hai wanted to know something.
But now Wang Bantou is unconscious, and he can't ask.
Guo Hai himself didn't know how to use medicine, so he couldn't help much, so he could only leave a silver ingot and plan to leave.
You'll have to find other ways to find out the news first.
Guo Hai is preparing to say goodbye.
At this time, a servant came in from outside.
This person's name is Zhang Quan, and he has a good relationship with Wang Bantou, and Guo Hai has also met him a few times.
"Shopkeeper Guo, come to see Wang Bantou."
Guo Hai's eyes suddenly moved, this one may have gone yesterday, he must know some inside information, why should he be willing to go far.
"Wang Bantou was fine when he came to drink tea yesterday, why is this, hey...
Guo Hai deliberately wanted to speak and stopped, wanting to lead Zhang Quan to speak.
Zhang Quan was not half wary of Guo Hai.
Hearing this, he also sighed.
"I went to Weijiazhuang last night to catch the thief, but I didn't expect the other party to have accomplices, and four brothers died, and Wang Bantou also...
Guo Hai's eyes moved, and four of them died, which is indeed very serious.
"There are so many of you, how can you still be unguarded against each other's accomplices?"
Zhang Quanqi was a little angry and wanted to scold.
"When I caught the thief, I still took the peony girl with me, and I looked like a swinger, but who would have thought that there was someone hiding in the dark to protect me, and I was careless."
Yes, who would have thought that the other party would take the Qinglou woman to the wind and snow, and still ambush people in the dark.
"Peony girl?"
This is an important clue for Guo Hai.
"It's the girl from Lichunyuan."
Zhang Quan didn't seem to want to say any more, and Guo Hai didn't ask again.
The two exchanged a few more casual greetings.
Guo Hai said goodbye and left.
Back at the teahouse, Guo Hai hurriedly changed his outfit again and quietly left through the back door.
"Brother Guo?"
Chen Yonghua and Yin Xiaolong saw Guo Hai again, and both of them were quite surprised.
Guo Hai came over for two days in a row, which is definitely unusual.
"Something happened to Wang Bantou."
Guo Hai's first sentence surprised Chen Yonghua and Yin Xiaolong.
Could it be that something went wrong yesterday?
The two of them clearly remembered that Wang Bantou was going to Weijiazhuang to ambush yesterday.
The two of them ran to set fire to warn, could it be that Wang Bantou was exposed.
"Wang Bantou was cut off by the gang of people hiding in Weijiazhuang, and he is still unconscious, if he can't wake up, then...
Guo Hai really couldn't go on.
Among these brothers, he and Wang Bantou are connected, so they have the most contact.
Unexpectedly, Wang Bantou was not planted in the hands of the Qing thief, but was injured by his own people, which made Guo Hai feel aggrieved.
Chen Yonghua and Yin Xiaolong also looked at each other.
The two of them had already gone to warn yesterday, how could those people still go to Weijiazhuang.
Could it be that Weijiazhuang has some secrets.
Chen Yonghua immediately blamed himself, it was his carelessness that hurt Wang Bantou.
"That person brought a woman at that time, it was the white peony of Lichun Courtyard, the military advisor, Brother Yin, we have to seek justice for Wang Bantou."
Chen Yonghua and Yin Xiaolong nodded, this is also a clue.
This matter must be clarified.
Although they are all anti-Qing forces, it does not mean that they are of one mind.
Wang Bantou's matter must be explained, otherwise the brothers will definitely not be convinced.
But first, you have to find the other party.
Chen Yonghua and Yin Xiaolong did not delay, the two of them directly changed their outfits and rushed towards Lichun Courtyard.
There are really not many people who come to the Qinglou at noon.
Although the bustard felt quite surprised, who would turn away business, isn't it incompatible with money?
"Do you know each other?"
"Is Miss Peony there?"
"Huh?"
The bustard was a little surprised this time.
This old and young, are you going to find one?
"The peony girl is the coffin cleaner."
The old bustard hurriedly explained.
"We're just here to listen to the music."
Chen Yonghua hurriedly explained.
How could the old bustard believe this, who was stupid enough to come to the brothel so early to listen to the tune.
The old bustard was still hesitating, and Chen Yonghua directly threw out a silver ingot.
The old bustard immediately smiled.
Here, as long as the money is in place, then there is no problem in doing anything.
White Peony also returned to Lichun Courtyard for a short time, but as soon as he came back, White Peony found that he had made a big mistake.
That is, to leave Zhu Ming alone in that courtyard, what does Zhu Ming eat?
And now it is broad daylight, and White Peony does not dare to go rashly.
After all, White Peony had met with those officials last night.
I just came back, but I went to the neighborhood again, and I couldn't do it if I didn't want to arouse suspicion.
But did Zhu Ming stay hungry all the time?
The white peony was in a hurry, and he heard the bustard shouting at the door.
"Peony, there are guests who want to listen to music."
White Peony suddenly calmed down.
Where would someone come to listen to music at noon?
White Peony immediately knew that there was something wrong with the guest.
But she didn't dare to show the slightest abnormality.
"Mom, I'm going to get dressed."
The old bustard immediately smiled, arranged for Chen Yonghua and Yin Xiaolong to sit down outside, and served some tea and snacks.
