Chapter 16: Encounter with a thief
Liu Jinghong's carriage went all the way out of the palace, and the sky was just white, and the carriage arrived at the north city gate.
"You're out of town alone?" Qingfu is right, today's city gate is really more careful than in the past, the guards lifted the curtain, and looked at Liu Jinghong who was riding alone in a car suspiciously.
"Hmm." Liu Jinghong nodded, Ruan Niang explained everything on the road, and the driver would take care of it, so that she didn't have to worry. If you say too much, you will lose, Liu Jinghong just responded in a low voice.
"You little girl's house, where are you going to go by car this morning?" The guards looked at Liu Jinghong, her face was not in the shadows in the car, and she could only faintly see that it was a neat girl of thirteen or fourteen years old.
This coachman was Du Huainan's henchman, and he had already been instructed how to deal with this situation, walked to the guards, secretly handed over five taels of silver in his sleeve, and said in a low voice: "Official, this is a thin horse raised by Yanyulou, which was favored by the rich businessmen of Jiuzhou City, and it was ordered for a thousand taels of silver yesterday, and the bustard mother of Yanyulou asked the grass people to send people to the house before noon." ”
When the guards heard that it was a thin horse, they lifted the curtain of the carriage a little more, took advantage of the light to glance at Liu Jinghong, and sighed: "Yes, it is worth a thousand taels." ”
Liu Jinghong didn't hear the coachman's words, and when he heard the guard's words, he listened to the guard's words, so he heard the guard say, "You can go, little lady." ”
Liu Jinghong heard such an ambiguous title, and he was unhappy, but he couldn't show it. As he spoke, the guards had lowered the curtain, and the coachman hurriedly got on his horse and drove away.
It was a hot summer day, and the air in the car was stuffy, and it was just morning, and Liu Jinghong felt unbearable. The carriage traveled to the farm outside the capital, the stones on the road bumped the car, and Liu Jinghong's slender body continued to shake with the bumps of the car.
The car stopped slowly, and the coachman said loudly: "Miss, the old slave has something to do, park the car here first, and go back when you go." ”
Liu Jinghong guessed that the coachman Xu was in a hurry, so he responded: "Okay." ”
Got up early in the morning, and sat in the carriage for half a day, Liu Jinghong was already sore limbs at this time, drowsy, and sat for a while, Liu Jinghong felt more and more dizzy and swollen, looked around, and saw that the curtain of the car was lifted at some point, and a finger-thick bamboo pipe was stretched in.
Big things are not good!
Jing Hong's heart tightened, and he wanted to call for help, but his throat couldn't make a sound as if he was choked, and his limbs were also locked by the stuffy incense in the bamboo tube.
When the coachman left, he was given a stuffy incense, Liu Jinghong only felt that it was his bad luck, and he didn't know that the coachman left on purpose, and the two thieves who gave her the stuffy incense were two nearby bandits, Zhou Ping and Qian Bao, and the two brothers received a secret report a few days ago, saying that there was a batch of gold and silver treasures, which would pass by here at this moment.
When the two thieves outside the carriage were making a smoky incense, it had been confirmed through the curtain that there was only one person in the carriage. Hearing the sound of "bang", I knew that the people in the car had been fascinated by the stuffy incense, and the two thieves, one holding Jinghong's head and the other dragging Jinghong's feet, dragged Jinghong out of the car.
Qian Bao dragged Liu Jinghong's feet, his eyes fell on Jinghong's face, and he said to Zhou Ping in surprise: "Brother, this little lady is really good-looking, like a fairy." ”
Zhou Ping glanced down at Liu Jinghong, hooked his lips and smiled: "Since my brother likes it, when we finish searching the treasures in the car, we will also take this little lady back." ”
The stuffy incense used by Zhou Ping and Qian Bao is extremely effective, and it will make people lose their strength for a few days, but it will not make people lose consciousness. People who are fascinated know what they have been through, but they can't move or shout. At this time, Liu Jinghong listened to their words, and his heart fell into the ice cellar, hoping that the coachman could come back soon and rescue himself from the tiger's mouth.
The two brothers were anxious to find the treasure in the car, and when they dragged Liu Jinghong out of the car, the pearl necklace around her neck was accidentally broken by the nail on the car door, and the crystal and seedless Taihu Lake beads were scattered all over the ground. The two put Liu Jinghong on the ground, got into the car and flipped over for a while, and found that the car was nothing more than a girl's clothes, and the only valuable ones were some gold and silver jewelry.
Zhou Ping looked at the dazzling jewelry in his hand, a little disappointed, when he received the secret insurance, he thought it was a car full of silver tickets, and then looked at Jing Hong lying on the ground, relieved, looked at Qian Bao and smiled: "Although I didn't find much valuable things, but I got a fairy-like little lady, it is not a loss." ”
Qian Bao laughed so much that his facial features wrinkled together, and from time to time his eyes glanced at Liu Jinghong who was lying on the ground.
Zhou Ping knew his thoughts, the two brothers became thieves because they had no money to marry a wife, but the thieves did not go well, when they had a surplus on hand, they squandered it, and now they have not received anything for several months, and they have not approached the woman for several months: "That's it, don't rush to leave, you and I brothers will enjoy it first." ”
Liu Jinghong was indignant, hating to slash the two of them, but his heart was full of anger, but he couldn't use any strength in his body.
Qian Bao stretched out his hand to untie Liu Jinghong's clothes as he spoke, but was stopped by Zhou Ping: "It's not in a hurry like this, right?" In the middle of the road, you are not afraid of being seen! ”
Qian Bao realized this, so He Zhouping put away the jewelry that was turned over from the car and dragged Liu Jinghong to the depths of the farmland.
Jinghong has been looking forward to the coachman coming back to rescue him, and by this time he is already dead, and secretly made up his mind that if he can't get out of danger, he will really be defiled by these two thieves, and he will not have the face to live in the world, and after the effect of the stuffy incense has passed, he will find a way to commit suicide.
Until Zhou Ping and Qian Bao dragged Liu Jinghong to the depths of the farmland, stepped on a crop, and put Liu Jinghong on the ground, Liu Jinghong did not wait for the coachman to come to find him. The coachman was afraid that he had found out that something had happened, and he was afraid of taking responsibility or facing the prince without a word, so he abandoned the car and ran away, Liu Jinghong thought hopelessly, but hated not to die.
Zhou Ping intended to let Qian Bao enjoy this beauty first, but now that the beauty was lying on the ground, Qian Bao hesitated, knelt beside Liu Jinghong and looked up at Liu Jinghong: "Big brother, this little lady is still so young, maybe she is still a young lady who has not left the cabinet, otherwise let's take the jewelry and let her go!" ”
Although Zhou Ping and Qian Baoqing are siblings, he has always looked down on his woman's kindness, and said impatiently: "How can there be a young lady who has not left the cabinet to take a car, maybe she is a young prostitute in Yanyulou, let her go is just to cheapen those dog officials, if she goes to sue the official, you and I will be miserable!" ”
