Chapter 443: Wit
In the Hongzhou Yamen, Chu Xia called the master to discuss for a long time, and one thing to be solved now is that Yang Rong will definitely send someone to rob the corpse, do you want him to bring the corpse back?
Now is not the time to do it face to face with him, and letting the corpse take him away can ease his anger. But if he is asked to bring the body back, it will also seem to be a waste of the government.
Of course, it's best if someone comes to carry the black pot, and it doesn't matter if the government is wasted, but it won't be good if you want to look useless.
Chu Xia pursed his lips and asked, "Hasn't Zhuang Rou come back yet?" ”
"My lord, no matter how much Miss Zhuang indulges you, she can't keep letting you cheat......" Master couldn't help but say.
Chu Xia glanced at him dissatisfied, leaned back in the chair, waved his hand and said, "Okay, let them snatch it." If there are officers and soldiers defending the city, there is no need to send more people. ”
At this time, the master spoke: "My lord, that Yang Palm is said to be a flying fool, it stands to reason that when he really reaches the threshold of life and death, he will definitely come out with Yang Rong's identity." ”
"Although Miss Zhuang seems to be reckless, she has never done anything bad. She didn't get involved in anything, she knew that the people in the guard house had robbed and killed the people, so it was impossible to ignore it and just kill a few people to get angry. ”
He frowned and guessed, "My lord, you say, will she go to Yang Rong alone?" ”
Chu Xia looked at him and laughed, "It shouldn't be possible to go directly to the door, she knows that even if she says this, we can't do anything about Yang Rong, so we can only report it to the court." ”
"But there is one thing she can do, which is to quietly wait for Yang Rong to snatch the corpse."
He said meaningfully to his master: "Sir, it's not that this king wants to push things on her all the time, many times she does it herself, I just borrow it." ”
"Let Yang Qing go over tonight, and when you meet Zhuang Rou, you will stop her and let the guard snatch the corpse." Chu Xia said to Xiao Ran again.
Xiao Ran responded, with Yang Qing present, if he wanted to block Zhuang Rou, there should be no problem.
When night fell, Yang Qing hid in the city early, waiting for Zhuang Rou and the people in the guard, as long as he blocked Zhuang Rou, he could complete the task.
But left and right, no one came to snatch the corpse, not even Zhuang Rou appeared. This made him feel strange, could it be that the people in the guard were just counting it?
I wanted to leave here to inquire about the news around the guard, but I was afraid that I would fall for the plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, so they came with the front foot and the back foot, so I had to wait patiently.
When Yang Qing was waiting in a daze, on the official road less than ten miles away from the guard station, Zhuang Rou was holding a torch and touching the money on the corpse.
Compared with the guards who robbed the house, she was more like a robber at this time.
"Do these people go out without money?" Zhuang Rou looked at the dozens of taels of silver in her hand and said dejectedly.
She waited for so long on the way to Hongzhou City, and finally waited for these guys, but when they showed their faces on the road to show their identity, they pounced like crazy.
With the iron armor in her body, she tossed for a long time before she killed all twenty or so people. The biggest loss was the loss of several crossbow arrows, which had to be replenished.
Zhuang Rou already knew who killed the people, and she could hang the corpses on the head of the city, just to lure the people out of the guard to collect the corpses, so she couldn't wait outside the city stupidly.
Of course, the best way is to stay outside the guardhouse, no matter who comes out, as long as you jump out and say that you are Zhuang Rou, it is definitely right to pounce and kill you alive or dead.
Thinking that Yang Rong would be furious after knowing it, she felt happy. When he returned at dawn, he would tell the little king the good news, and maybe he could see his expression frozen.
That scene must be interesting, which made Zhuang Rou can't help but hum a little song happily.
As for the heads of these people, she didn't plan to take them back, so she just threw them here, so as not to bring them back and scare the people in the city, so that they would think that there were really so many bandits.
After taking all the money and property, Zhuang Rou rode away.
And Yang Qing waited until the second half of the night, when his body was almost freezing, and suddenly found that someone was riding a horse close to the city gate in the dark.
He carefully looked at the person in the dark and found that it was none other than Zhuang Rou. Her clothes were a little badly damaged, and it looked like she had gone through a fierce fight, and although there were a lot of blood stains, there was no sign of injury.
Yang Qing knew that Zhuang Rou had opened up the second vein of Ren Du, and she had a turtleshell-like iron armor, and even ordinary Jianghu experts couldn't hurt her, at most, she hurt her clothes.
Seeing her come over so openly, instead of hiding and waiting for someone to snatch the corpse, Yang Qing had a bad feeling in his heart. If her clothes were ruined like this in Ha'an Town the day before, she would definitely have to go back and change her clothes before going out.
But I didn't add it back yesterday, which means it's not so bad, and now it's like this, is it possible that I have fought again?
At this time, Zhuang Rou rode on his horse and raised his head to the city and shouted: "I am Zhuang Concubine, open the city gate, I want to go in!" ”
The guards looked down, their eyesight was not as good as Yang Qing's, and there were regulations that they could not open the city gate in the middle of the night, and now that the world was so chaotic, they shouted back: "Is there a token?" ”
Only the token of the Lord Zhizhou or the military department can enter and exit the city gate in the middle of the night, and Zhuang Rou naturally does not have this kind of thing. She flattened her mouth and said, "Forget it, I'll wait here until dawn." ”
Suddenly, a person jumped down from the city, and after Yang Qing landed, he stood up straight and smiled at her: "Sister Zhuang, I invite you to drink." ”
Zhuang Rou looked at him with some surprise, and then looked up at the corpses and human heads that were still hanging on the wall, and said with some sudden realization: "Brother Yang is here to guard this corpse, afraid that someone will come to rob it?" ”
"No, I came out on patrol, and I happened to pass by the city and saw you outside the city. I'm almost freezing on this cold day, so I want to sneak over and ask you to have a drink to warm up. Yang Qing rubbed his hands and smiled, he had been squawing for most of the night, and he was indeed a little stiff.
Zhuang Rou smiled: "Okay." ”
The two came to the wine shop by the city gate, and on a cold day, they heard that there were robbers, and those who wanted to enter the city would rather stay in the inn in the village and town than dare to travel overnight. The liquor shops at the gates of the city were doing worse than before, and there was no one at this time.
The shopkeeper was already asleep sitting by the brazier, and the two of them entered the door and brought in a cold wind, which woke him up.
"Shopkeeper, bring three or four dishes of food, and wine, hurry up and warm a pot." Yang Qing shouted as soon as he entered the door.
The shopkeeper looked up and saw that there was a guest, and was about to say hello, but found that the woman who came in was Zhuang Rou, and he was so frightened that he fell asleep.
His shop is at the gate of the city, but in the morning, he saw Zhuang Rou come back with his own eyes, and he didn't know this Lord of Yama.
Quickly nodded in fright, led the two to the table and sat down, and also sent his brazier over, and then hurried to busy with hot dishes and warm wine.
Yang Qing said with a smile: "This shopkeeper was scared by you during the day, look at the panicked look." ”
"What do I have to be afraid of, I didn't come back with a head tonight, I just got blood." Zhuang Rou said casually.
Yang Qing's eyes fell on her, and he asked with a wry smile, "Who are you going to kill?" ”
Zhuang Rou grinned and said: "Whoever wants to rob the corpse and kill whom, I will go directly to their door, be witty!" ”
"It's too witty...... Yang Qing snorted, there was really no way to explain this time.
