Several team leaders immediately greeted Qi Qiang and said goodbye. Everyone got off the horse, Wang Zhutou glanced at the Xu family, and whispered in Qi Qiang's ear: "I'm afraid it's already started." ”

Qi Qiang nodded and asked a team leader, "Who is in charge of it?" ”

"Back to Uncle Qi's words, a messenger came to the Yan Division, and Lord Yun was also there, but he waited for the arrival of the big boss and the second master of Li before he started to do it."

Qi Qiang listened, and thought that it was Lian Zhenyun who was in charge, so he walked to the sedan chair and said, "Sister, don't get off the sedan chair, and don't look out on the road, so as not to be frightened, let's go in like this." ”

Qi Su Niang was so anxious that she responded and said, "Brother, let's go directly to the back house." The old lady lived in the warm pavilion behind the main house. ”

Qi Qiang responded, asked Wang Zhutou to light ten more officials, took torches, surrounded the sedan chair, and walked towards Xu's mansion.

In the main hall of the front house, the squad leader led nine officials to guard the male prisoners, and when they saw Qi Qiang and others walking to the front of the main hall with the official sedan chair, they hurriedly greeted them. Before they could speak, the male prisoners detained in the main hall looked at the green sedan chair, and immediately someone took advantage of the negligence of the officials to break free, rolled down the steps, climbed towards the official sedan chair, and shouted: "The county lord, ask the county lord to uphold justice!" ”

Qi Qiang glared at him and scolded: "Don't go back yet, it's my sister in the sedan chair!" The head of the squad immediately kicked the male prisoner in the head and scolded loudly: "Are they all blind? How did you let this damn run out and startle Madame! ”

The official in the main hall chased after him, and he was beaten with a baton, beating the male prisoner so hard that he screamed, and Governor Xu's cry came from inside: "Dad! Father! Then came the men's cries and screams.

Qi Su Niang heard it in the sedan chair, her heart burned like fire, and she said, "Brother, what's wrong?" ”

Qi Qiang walked up the steps and looked at it, turned back to the sedan chair and said, "It seems that the old man of the Xu family has gone." ”

Qi Su Niang was stunned for a moment, only to feel inexplicably sad, "Brother, tell them to stop fighting, let's hurry to the back house." ”

Qi Qiang stopped the official and asked the team leader: "Where is the big boss?" Do you know what happened to the ladies inside? ”

"Back to Uncle Qi's words, I heard that a lot of gold and silver were copied, and even the big boss went to the back house." There was a pause: "The villain is listening outside, and I'm afraid it's not good for the female dependents." ”

Qi Qiang nodded, beckoned back, turned around the main hall gate, and wanted to enter the inner house through the corner door at the back of the hall. Wang Zhutou was busy with a sedan chair to follow, and Qi Su Niang suddenly heard Governor Xu shouting in the sedan chair: "Madam, beg Madame to go and see my mother!" Madam! ”

Qi Su Niang heard the terrible cry, and the howls of the victims who lost their relatives and loved on the way to escape the disaster generally made people just want to cover their ears, and they couldn't bear to listen to it anymore, and they couldn't help but feel sad secretly.

There are Cao Gang guards in front of the back house, but most of them have seen Qi Qiang, knowing that he is not only the brother-in-law of the county elder, but also the friend of the two masters.

The gang in front of the main house did not dare to stop it, Qi Qiang let the sedan chair be carried straight into the warm pavilion of the main house, a lonely lamp was lit in the room, and the four female dependents were all in plain clothes, without a hairpin ring, and the old lady Xu who did not make a sound around the bed cried sadly, so it was not desolate. Suddenly, they saw a group of men burst in, screaming in fright, huddled in the corner of the bed and cried.

Qi Qiang frowned, asked the officials to put down the sedan chair, retreated outside the warm pavilion, and helped Qi Su Niang to walk out, "Let's take a look, I'm afraid it won't work." ”

Qi Su Niang hurriedly walked to the side of the bed, lowered her head and shouted, "Old lady, old lady." ”

The old lady Xu was originally ignorant, but at this time, her whole body trembled, and she slowly opened her eyes, looking at Qi Su Niang, and a few drops flowed from her blurry and cloudy eyes.

Qi Su Niang sat on the side of the bed, held Mrs. Xu's hand, looked at her old and decrepit appearance, and couldn't help crying: "Old lady, if you still have anything to worry about, tell me, if I can do it, I will definitely do it for you." ”

Old Madam Xu opened her mouth slightly, but there was a gurgling phlegm sound, Qi Su Niang hurriedly smoothed her breath, leaned on her mouth and listened to her, only to hear her continue: "... I knew I wouldn't be able to escape if I was a dead ...... The Xu family left a seedling...... Lotus...... Lotus ...... She...... She ......"

Qi Su Niang only heard the word lotus fragrance, and she couldn't smell it anymore, and shouted urgently: "Old lady, what's wrong with Lianxiang?" Mrs. Xu held Qi Su Niang's hand tightly with her backhand, barely raised her head from the pillow, gurgled in her throat, looked at Qi Su Niang, Qi Su Niang cried: "Although the concubine does not understand, she will take Lianxiang home, and when she grows up, she will find a good family for her to mar......ry" Before the words were finished, Mrs. Xu closed her eyes, her head sank to the pillow, and she went.

The lady in the corner of the bed cried loudly, calling the old lady while begging Qi Su Niang, "Madam, please save our ...... madam."

Qi Su Niang tilted her head slightly, not daring to look at them, Qi Qiang stepped forward and pulled her away, "I can't care about these many things, let's go, I just saw that there seem to be a lot of servants in the side courtyard, let's go and see ......"

There are more than 10 rooms in the side courtyard, except for the middle five, the wings on both sides are stuffed with daughters-in-law, and even the big boat will put 34 young and beautiful people in one room. Lian Zhenyun and the others sat in the main room, looking at them one by one, the errand officer first picked two tender ones, and laughed and said: "It's not much worse than Yang Masu prostitute, a few brothers, don't be afraid of your jokes, this official came all the way from Yangzhou Mansion and drove for more than ten days, which is really a little tiring." ”

Lian Zhenyun said with a smile: "My lord works hard, there are a few bedrooms behind here, why don't you go in and rest." ”

The official smiled: "There is nothing left, the official will go back to the post station to rest now, and the matter of counting the gold and silver will be annoying to everyone, Lord Cao's share, and then the subordinate will bring it back directly." ”

Lian Zhenyun came to see the woman first, he had this meaning, and seeing that this errand official was interested, he hurriedly got up and sent the Yanfu errand official with two women.

Lian Zhenyun and Yundian Shi looked at each other and smiled, Lian Zhenyun flipped over the account book in his hand, Lian Dachuan hurriedly took a candlestick and came up, Lian Zhenyun put the account book up, the corner of the paper was licked by the flames, and slowly burned, and in the end, it became a pile of black ash.

"Go, tell Dahe to make another account book, and then collect the forbidden things on the Golden Bottle Pavilion, and present them together, and write that the daily behavior is arrogant and lascivious, and the profligacy is extravagant, not only the money for greed for ink is exhausted, but the family wealth is only scattered with a thousand taels of silver, and a hundred acres of land."

Even the big boat hurriedly responded, and said with a smile: "The two masters of Heyun have worked hard, and there are more than ten of them behind, and they have already been led to the door, do you want to continue to take a look?" ”

Li Siqin drank wine in the middle of the night, and sat for half the night, and he was already in a bad mood, "Big brother, I don't look at it, it's almost dawn, I'll go outside to practice in the garden, sober up, when will I go back to the altar, call me." With that, he got up and went quickly.

Yun Dianshi also smiled: . "I'll forget it, and then bring people back, my body and bones can't stand it, I'll go and see the Dahe book, so as not to make mistakes, and I'll send it over for the big boss to see." Let's go out.

Seeing the two of them leaving, Lian Dachuan chuckled and said, "The second master is a fool, but Lord Yun is really interesting." This matter is all presided over by the big bosses, whether these women stay or sell, they are all big bosses. The small one also specially hid the two best ones, and they never got them. ”

Lian Zhenyun scolded with a smile: "Do your best to think crookedly, learn more from Dahe in the future, and after the serious errands are done, play these again!" He waved his hand again and said: "Forget it, I won't look at it anymore, I'm very tired after drinking in the middle of the night, but it's just a few women, I'm too lazy to bother, send it back to the jar, and look at it when I'm free." ”

Lian Dachuan responded, followed Lian Zhenyun out of the door, and saw more than a dozen women standing at the door of the main house, all of them pale and trembling. He didn't even look at Zhenyun, he walked straight over, and suddenly faintly smelled a trace of the familiar residual lotus fragrance, his heart jumped, his footsteps immediately slowed down, and he looked sideways at the woman passing by.
