Chapter 24 Borrowing a knife can kill

More than ten days have passed, and it seems to be Chinese New Year's Eve.

The house is preparing for the New Year, the people are cleaning up the dust, and the spring cards and paper-cuts are also posted on the doors. Since there are no elderly and children, there is no need to wash the old age and prepare for the New Year, which is more convenient.

The snow is still falling, and I am wearing a peach-pink dark coat with a big red cloak today, which is festive and auspicious. Chinese New Year's Eve is closed, and the eldest brother and second brother are not lazy, but still go out to buy some things.

I was holding the stove and looking out the window in a daze, wondering what happened to my parents in my previous life. I only heard the bamboo rhyme coming, and put a smoker under my feet: "Miss Careful is cold." ”

Xue Yun came in: "Miss, there's a letter from Tianxianglou, saying that I will give this to you." ”

I took it apart and took a look, and it said that Du Tang was resting today, and he was worshipping his ancestors in the suburbs. Everything is ready, and I am left to push the boat down.

Oh? It's a good time.

Master Du will not reverse right and wrong, but if he sees it in person, then it is another matter. Moreover, the world trusts only in its own eyes.

So I pretended to be the second prince's attendant Huang Yong, changed into my suit, and rode up the mountain with Yan Yun.

The Goddess Peak is not far from Los Angeles and is named after the Goddess of Wushan. It is said that Yao Ji, the daughter of the Red Emperor, died unmarried and was buried here.

The peaks are tall and straight, the foot of the mountain is green, the water is gurgling at the feet, the snow particles fall and melt into the stream, but the peak is covered with snow, but it is two different scenery.

The wind was blowing fiercely and it was cold, so I gathered my fox cloak.

"Childe, this is the place where Yao Ji is buried, and she has committed a taboo, do you want to enter the mountain?"

I looked up and saw the cold pines and the fog. Gripping the reins: "I'm Song Yao, not Yao Ji." Rest assured, your master will not recommend a pillow mat, and he will never be buried here. ”

I covered my face with a black cloth, raised my hand, and set out.

The mountain road is rugged and not easy to walk, but it also allows the two to ride side by side. Unfortunately, in order to avoid detection, I still dismounted.

After walking for a while, he saw a man and a woman with a young son and a maid in the distance. When the man saw that the child could not walk, he carried him behind him.

I motioned for Yan Yun to stop. He followed him from afar.

All the way to the heart stone. I looked towards the top of the rock, and sure enough, Xu Shuyou's people were already waiting there.

Who knew that Du Tang also stopped, he put down the child, bowed his head slightly, whispered a few words to the woman and the child, and suddenly turned around: "You have been following for a long time, it's time to come out and show your face." ”

How did he know?

Sure enough, he knew!

Although I was surprised, I had to arch my hand: "The Lord of the Wine Sacrifice is wanton, even in this deep mountain and wild forest, he does not bring a few more guards to protect him. ”

Du Tang took two steps forward and blocked the woman and child behind him: "I don't know who Your Excellency is entrusted with, on Chinese New Year's Eve, instead of keeping the New Year with your family, you will go with me to worship the ancestral grave, this mountain road is rugged, could it be that you are a relative of your father?" Unexpectedly, I did not prepare a carriage and a good wine to invite. ”

I smiled and said, "Don't dare, don't dare, be entrusted by people, be loyal to people." Good wine is not necessary, but now, my master has a matter that needs the help of the priest. ”

Master Du pushed the woman behind him and motioned for her to go first, but the woman did not move at all. had to deal with: "Du Tang is a scholar, where did he get the ability to help your master?" ”

I said: "It's a big deal for my master, and it's just a gesture for Lord Du, you just need to play Your Majesty, the prince formed a party for personal gain, colluded with Ning Anhou, and intended to rebel!" ”

Du Tang didn't show the slightest fluster, just laughed a few times: "This is really a big joke for me." ”

I made a look, and Xu Shuyou's people came down from the cliff like cornices: "Ling Zun has been dead for many years, and he must be very lonely, why don't you fulfill Lord Du's heart today, and let your family of three go to reunite with him." “

Immediately murderous, I continued: "If the priest does not agree, the young son is innocent, will he also take his life together?" ”

Du Tang didn't see compromise, but lowered his head and touched the child's head: "Chen'er, are you afraid?" ”

The child looked up at his father and said, "Don't be afraid, child! ”

After that, the woman also said: "Since the concubine is married to her husband, she must be born with the same husband and die with the same hole." Don't you want to leave me!"

Du Tang said helplessly: "In this case, then together, the three of us can be in one place, but we sacrificed Xiaoyu's life in vain." ”

The girl shook her head: "Xiaoyu is with the old lady." ”

What a bonus!

I saw that several of them looked like they were at home, and I knew that the play was almost done. He stretched out his arm, pretended to stretch his waist, and handed over the code.

I saw a team of people and horses coming, and suddenly the dust and sand rolled up, the cold wind was cold, and the leader dismounted, with an angry face, and sneered: "What? Before the second prince could speak, you acted without permission, were you afraid that I would steal the first credit? ”

I took an arrow in my backhand and prepared to draw the bow: "You always do bad things to me on weekdays, but now, I will even get rid of you, as long as it is done, it will not be too late for the master to take it again!" Suddenly, the arrow hit the opponent in the shoulder impartially.

The big man held the tail of the arrow in his hand and said in disbelief: "Huang Yongxiao'er, you dare to ...... So for me. ”

I laughed and said, "So what? After you leave, I will say that you are the master of the matter and kill the sacrificial wine family, and when the time comes, you will take the master's spurning and leave. Can you rest assured?"

The big man was so angry that he made a gesture, and all the other side rushed over in an instant, and they were about to start fighting with us.

I was entangled with him for a while, and I couldn't take care of the Du Tang family.

This was exactly the opportunity for Du Tang to escape, and when he saw this, he took his wife and wife to sneak around us, and ran down the mountain without looking back.

……

When he disappeared, I stopped my movements and quickly clenched my fists: "I was offended just now." “

"You and I are both working for the master. Little brother doesn't have to see outside, but your arrow is really powerful, and I really hurt when I shot my grandfather. ”

His men burst into laughter

Unexpectedly, Xu Shuyou's voice rang out, he slowly walked out from behind the big man, and said with a smile: "Brother Mu is really sharp-toothed. You've done a great job. not only blamed the second prince, but also cleared the suspicion of the prince and the Marquis of Ning'an. “

But I didn't see the slightest joy: "The matter is not over, and a fire needs to be added." “

"Oh?"

"Master Du is very smart, and he must take this matter seriously. If you are really the second prince's person, what should you do next?"

Xu Shuyou restrained his smile: "You mean killing the mouth?"

I shook my head: "No, if you want to completely envelop Du Tang, you must plan people's hearts." It will not do us any good to kill his family, only when he has no way to retreat, he will be forced to share a boat with us and pull him up at the right time. He will be used to you completely. ”

"Brother Mu has a good plan?"

I motioned for him to come over: "This ...... like this"
