Chapter 47—I Am an Outsider (II)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I am the dividing line of an outsider (II).
Li Shi regretted it very much at this time, he didn't listen to Tang Lan's words at the beginning, and he didn't come out in Zhuangzi. Now he has become someone else's hostage. To be honest, she was a little scared, very scared. has followed Tang Lan for so many years, although she is not a man's heart, but her life is safe and stable, whether it is in the capital or in Kansai, no one dares to give her a look at the wife of General Shanglin, not to mention the opposite blade. She began to think about how she could send a letter to the Tang Mansion. Although she doesn't care about the affairs of the Tang family, those fierce subordinates in Tang Zhuang are said to be terrifying in the rivers and lakes. If Zhuangzi sent someone to save her, maybe there would be a chance.
However, she thought that Tang Lan had not returned to Xianyang since leaving Zhuangzi a few days ago, and she knew that it was related to the military talisman, and most of them went to that barracks. I don't know if the family will be able to find him immediately. This time the matter seems to be very tricky, Xinyuan usually goes in and out of the Zhuangzi and the cabinet to manage some chores, and in the past two days, he has also gone out to run errands, not in the Zhuangzi. Because the third child went out for more than ten days, saying that he was going to a neighboring town to see medicinal herbs, but it shouldn't be so long. He is the prince's staff, but I'm afraid that something really big will happen this time. Although Zhuangzishang knew that she had entered the city and came to the Wu family, only the old lady, Xinyue and the girl of the Bai family were the only ones in charge of the family. I don't know if they will send someone from Zhuangzi to save her. It's just that in ordinary days, she doesn't look down on these rough people who fight and kill, and she doesn't know if they really work. Usually, even if the brother of the Tang family goes out to run errands, because he knows that she doesn't like these things, he never mentions them in front of her. When she was newly married, her father also suggested that she should learn some boxing and foot kung fu from Tang Lan, firstly, to strengthen her body, and secondly, to increase communication with her uncle and have more opportunities to get close to her husband. But she didn't bother to do it. After the woman of the Yu family appeared, she was even more reluctant. It is said that that woman is famous for her martial arts in the rivers and lakes, why should she be a young lady of the Earl's Court to depreciate herself to compare with those lowly people. Because she doesn't know martial arts, she doesn't want to deal with people in the rivers and lakes, and she feels dirty when she even deals with ordinary businessmen or ordinary people, so she can't interfere in the Tang family's external affairs, and after twenty or thirty years of marriage, the people of the Tang family are not as close to her as the girl of the Bai family, but she, the housemother, is an outsider after all.
She doesn't like the people of the Tang family, and she doesn't like them to wait for her closely, except for the rough mother-in-law and the guards who patrol her yard, she brought them from her mother's house. Of course, Dong Tingbo knew that the Tang family had no shortage of martial arts masters, so the companions she gave her were all Zhuangzi's family who were good at managing accounts, and there was no kung fu master. Usually when she goes out, except for the guards in Zhuangzi, the people who are close to her are subordinates who have no kung fu. When she first got married, Tang Lan sent Boss Wen to her as a coachman, who was not good-looking and a little lame. At that time, she was the bride in the capital, and she felt that this kind of coachman went out, especially to the party of the nobles in Beijing, which simply embarrassed her face, and after using it once, she asked Tang Lan to transfer him away. Tang Lan told her at the time that she asked the boss because she was the future head mother of the Tang Sect, and safety was very important, and there were many dignitaries in the capital who wanted to beg Boss Wen to go, but he didn't bother to do it. Under her childish insistence, Tang Lan had to match her with some handsome little girls. Later, Boss Wen became the head of the Tangzhuang guards, and he ignored her in the past few years. At this time, she deeply regretted why Tang Lan didn't insist on letting Boss Wen stay by her side. If Boss Wen had come with him today, he might have been able to escape with her now.
At this time, many black-clothed people appeared in the hall, dressed in black and masked, with long knives, like ghosts from hell, coming silently, with a cold murderous aura. Many official wives and young ladies were screaming in fright. Lai was grieving his youth at this time, and had not yet felt the real danger. Seeing that Mrs. Tang was silent, Wu You smiled softly: "Mrs. Tang, I advise you to follow my guards to the place arranged in the backyard to rest." Don't want to find someone to report to Tang's house. Madame's coachman and the attendant had just been overwhelmed, and had accidentally slit their throats by my men. ”
These words not only made Li Shi's face pale, but also frightened some of the women present. Wu You saw that these words had an effect, and he laughed even more: "Mrs. Tang may think that General Tang will come to save you, but I don't know if General Tang will survive with General Wusheng now." ”
There was a tingling in Li Shi's heart, Isn't that man very strong? Will it be plotted by others? Nearly thirty years of love and hate came up at once, and she couldn't tell what it was like.
Just when she was in a trance, she heard Wu You's even colder voice: "There are only three of you women in Tangzhuang, even if the others want to come back to save you, they need to pass through countless layers of barriers." I just don't know if they'll make it alive this time. ”
"What are you bullying a defenseless woman like that?"
Wu didn't want to, it was just his duty. Since Mrs. Tang asked, the official told the truth. Today, the crown prince Yixiang will bring people into the palace, and most of the people in the palace have followed the emperor to the hunting ground, and there is only the queen mother in the palace. If Prince Yixiang can be reinstated, it will be a great joy for everyone. If not, Wu will guard this Kansai Road for his master, wait for the arrival of the little master, revive everything, and regain the throne in the future. ”
Sure enough, it was for Yixiang, and I heard Wu You say with disdain: "If there are those small officials in this city, it doesn't matter." They were all at my disposal. However, there are people here who don't have long eyes, and when they see the high taste of General Lin in your family, they want to go to the stammer, and actually follow his instructions to oppose me. Now that their families are with me, I see what they can do. ”
The surrounding ladies were even more frightened when they heard this, and Li Shi's face began to turn pale, and his body was even weaker than just now, and he couldn't even sit still.
"Now that Mrs. Tang is here with me, I hope Tang Lan can have some scruples and not mess around. At the same time, I also hope that my wife will have a good rest here, and not go out and cause harm. At this moment, the four gates of Xianyang are closed, and no one is allowed to enter or leave without my warrant. General Wusheng has already sent someone to Tangzhuang to invite Mrs. Tang, and we also know that Mrs. Tang has been in the rivers and lakes for a long time, and she doesn't look down on us juniors, so we sent some more people, hoping to invite the old man to come and be a companion with his wife, waiting for General Tang to come back here. ”
"Wu You, you have thought very well of this arrangement. It's just that my grandmother doesn't necessarily like to come out, and she likes to live quietly in the Zhuangzi. A lazy voice came, Li Shi had never felt that this voice was so good in the past ten years.
"Tang San Gongzi, you're not..."
"Didn't I get burned to death in the inn by your men? Just your little tricks, too? ”
"It doesn't matter if you are worthy or not, Wu hopes that the third son can recognize the situation."
"What situation? Can you be a scumbag like you who threaten defenseless women and children? ”
"Wu is not talented, he is just acting on the orders of the emperor."
"The emperor let you rebel? Let you detain the families of the courtiers? ”
"Young man, you don't understand, the old man doesn't care about you, you can go, and come and talk to us when your father comes back."
"Wu You, haven't you heard that the third master doesn't like to do things with fake other people's hands? If you detain my eldest mother here today, you will damage my face, and you will not give face to the Tang family. How could I let you go. Let's duel according to the rules of the rivers and lakes. ”
Although Wu You knows some kung fu with fists and feet, compared to the Tang family, those superficial kung fu are simply child's play. In this case, he could only make a desperate bet, suddenly jumped up and landed beside Mrs. Tang, and just as he was about to put the dagger in his hand on Mrs. Tang's neck, he felt a chill in his wrist, and he couldn't hold the dagger. Before Xinjie could teach him a lesson, the black-clothed killer next to him suddenly stopped him. Wu Youdeng became angry: "Are you crazy? Actually helping the enemy. ”
"Lord Wu, it's really hard to say who the enemy is." As he spoke, he took off his scarf and revealed a delicate face.
Wu You was stunned: "You're not..."
"Of course I'm not, Wu You, you're really ashamed, you actually want to use a foreign killer to hurt your compatriots. We've already done your killers. The people here are all from the Tang family. ”
Mrs. Tang reacted in shock: "You are the shopkeeper of the Ping An Inn in Xianyang City." ”
"Thanks to Madame."
