Chapter 138: Something Happened
Medicine Knot Tongxin 138_Chapter 138 The accident came from Bayi Chinese Network (.) The hustle and bustle on the street did not affect the tranquility of the deep house compound.
The prefect's wife is still the first time to be a matchmaker, although the identity of the two parties seems to be not high, but in terms of the current form, whether it is Lu Yan or the girl of the Liu family, they are all hot figures, maybe the marriage will be reported, so that some adults can arrange it, and maybe they can get a congratulatory gift from the court, after all, for the court, this is also an opportunity to show grace and appease sentient beings, so it is not allowed to be sloppy.
"Naturally, this little gift can't be prepared..."The prefect's wife called a few old servants to inquire about what a matchmaker should consider.
"The small gifts in our Fucheng today are generally four pieces of silk, two gold rings, a pair of earrings, sixty flower buns, sixty-four oil bags, one load of fried millet, and two loads ......of old wine," several women said seriously.
This is just a small gift, not a bride price, the value of the number of items is enough for a family of three to chew and not run out, which shows the extravagance of the marriage in Hezhong Mansion.
Of course, these things are naturally nothing in the eyes of the prefect's wife.
"In that case.." The prefect's wife thought for a while, raised her arm from the pillow, and took the list of a bunch of items listed by the women, "Let's send six pieces of silk and satin, not to mention rings and earrings, just a full set of gold jewelry, this bun or something is auspicious, so follow the rules." ”
"Our Lord Lu is not short of these money." The women laughed and nodded.
After making this matchmaker, the relationship between the prefect's wife and Lu Yan is not ordinary, and it can be treated as a parent, especially this Lu Yan is a careless and unreasonable, in this not very peaceful place, it is a good thing to have such a close subordinate who is so brave and good at fighting, so everyone simply uses our name.
The prefect smiled.
"It's just not short of money, and it's not too much. I have to consider the woman's return gift, the Zhou family just turned over, and there is no vitality for three and five years to recover. Where can people grit their teeth and buy gold and silver oil packets in return..."She laughed.
"Madame is really thoughtful." The women laughed and complimented.
They are all old and mature people, how could they not know this, the reason why they say this is to give the prefect's wife a chance to show herself. Then they take the opportunity to compliment, which is much more useful than a direct compliment.
The prefect's wife really smiled even more.
"It's not easy for either child. Bitter haha to this day..."She said, and looked outside the door again, "Why hasn't Mrs. Liu come back yet, this Geng post should be offered earlier, and the time should be counted earlier, so it is better to make up your mind earlier." ”
As soon as the words fell, I heard a sound of footsteps outside. There seemed to be a lot of people coming.
"It's not coming." The women laughed and said, "When the maid heard the sound, she went to open the beaded curtain.
"Ma'am, ma'am, no." Three or four maids rushed in, and hurriedly shouted without caring about Shi Li, "Something happened to Miss Liu." ”
"What's wrong?" A room full of people was stunned.
Word spread quickly about what was happening on the streets.
The Zhou family, who had just cleared their name, was hit by thieves and robbed of the money and the girl of the Liu family.
Many people saw the girl Liu shouting for help on the street, and the neighbors of the Zhou family were chasing after the street shouting.
This is a great event, there are such vicious thieves in the city of Qingtian and Bairifu, and the officials are immediately shocked and angry. Immediately ordered the officers to go and arrest him.
Before anyone could leave, another piece of news came.
A few days ago, a group of Beijing soldiers who came down with the inspection officials of the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, about 100 people, surrounded a fort outside the city with weapons. It is said that the mood was so angry that it seemed that he was going to attack this fort.
Although the Beijing soldiers and the guards are different soldiers, they are all soldiers, and the soldiers have a conflict, which is the fight between colleagues, which is the most intolerable by military law, and the Hezhong Mansion, which has just won a good reputation, cannot afford to lose this person, and the military attache from the capital is also afraid of causing unnecessary involvement, so a group of officials, including the military attachés of the Governor's Mansion, hurried to this Tunpu together.
From a distance, I saw a group of brightly clad Beijing soldiers standing outside the gate of this Tongxiang Fort, waving the big knife in their hands, and shouting something in the castle.
The gate of Tongxiang Fort was closed, and there were faint guards peeking out, but no one came forward to ask.
Seeing this, the arrogance of those Beijing soldiers was even stronger.
"Hand over the people!"
"Tie up the evil dog thief!"
"Kneel down and make amends to the grandfathers!"
"Those who dare to touch our Imperial Horse Prison are impatient!"
One shouted after another, with an accent distinctly different from that of this one.
At the head were three big men, whose faces became more and more fierce at this time, and they puffed out their eyes to look at the high wall.
"Phew, a bunch of shrunken turtles." One of them spat and scolded with a smile, "It's been a long time, and there hasn't even been a person who dares to fart...."
"What do you say that the guards in Hezhong Mansion are brave and good at fighting, and they have captured many thieves and slaves...", another smiled predictably, "Just like this bear......I know that it is blowing out to cheat and reward again....."
"I'll teach these turtle grandsons a lesson later, and we can't finish it, we still have to go to the commander of Hedongyi to ask for justice." Another fair-skinned man of about thirty-five or sixteen years old said lightly.
The two of them nodded immediately, and it seemed that this person was the most in charge of the three.
"Master Li, don't worry, this matter is not so simple." The two men said with an indignant face, "These people are so bold, even if they hurt our people, they also dared to plunder the relatives of adults..."
Hearing them say this, the man who was called Master Li was even more blue on his face.
Although he is just a small official in the Imperial Horse Prison in Beijing, he is much more imposing as a Beijing official than these local officials, but he didn't expect that his relatives who came with him were arrested by the guards of a small tunbao like this, especially when he heard the reply of the subordinate who escaped by luck, he had already reported his name at that time, and it was still the result, which was simply a slap in the face to him.
After finding out where the other party came from, he was even more embarrassed, and he could bear to let his superiors slap him in the face, but it would be a great shame to let a lowly person who was not as good as himself slap his face.
If he didn't teach them a lesson, he would have no face to go back to the capital.
"If you don't open the door again, give me a storm, a small fort. Dozens of people have been killed, and we can't deal with it? He sneered, and was about to pull out the broadsword in his hand and swing it. Instructions are issued.
At this moment, a rhythmic sound of gongs and drums was heard in the fort, and the gate of the fort was opened, and seven or eight horsemen rushed out first.
"Good horse!" The Jing soldiers standing outside the fort saw it. At the same time, the thought flashed through my mind.
These eight horses are obviously well-trained war horses, and look at the people on the horses. Dressed in cotton armor, carrying bows and arrows on their backs, and holding hook spears in their hands, they were obvious cavalry attire.
The crowd was even more surprised.
"I didn't expect that there would be cavalry in this small tun fort." The first three narrowed their eyes and said.
It seems that this Hedongyi is very rich, and he can afford to give such a capital to a tunbao, after flashing this thought. The three of them immediately tacitly agreed in their hearts to double the compensation and comfort finance they were ready to ask.
They were naturally equipped with horses along the way, but because they learned that the Tunbao where the thieves hid was not far from Hezhong Mansion, except for a dozen people riding horses to deter them, everyone else came on foot.
"Later, let the brothers train these people and see how their kung fu goes." The first three laughed.
The laughter did not fall. I saw people running out of the gate again, this time the number of people seemed to be large and the pace was strict, and everyone felt a faint tremor under their feet, which made everyone feel slightly uneasy. When he saw the people who came out, his eyes widened in surprise.
Rows and rows of guards poured out with neat steps, dressed in the simplest and lowest cotton armor, and holding no more than a spear in their hands, but the Beijing soldiers who had been shouting noisily suddenly quieted down, watching these guards who were running in front of them and quickly forming a battle team.
They walked and stood very neatly, obviously strictly trained, so that everyone could see the number of people at a glance, because the distance was not far, and they could clearly see the appearance of these guards, basically dark and thin, with rough faces, and they knew at a glance that they were the local poor people, but they could not see the cowardice and emptiness of the soldiers who were recruited as Ding every day on their faces.
"These. There are nearly a hundred of them, right? The three big men were also full of surprise, "How can there be so many soldiers in this small tunpu with less than a few dozen households?" ”
And more importantly, the momentum of these soldiers......
They stood solemnly, their faces indifferent, looking straight at these Beijing soldiers who surrounded the fort, accompanied by the sound of a bang, the spears in their hands smacked into a fighting posture, and the chill of the forest flashed in the sun.
This posture is not a defense, but a readiness to attack.
"They... They are so bold, they dare to ..... so..." This thought flashed in the hearts of all the Jing soldiers, looking at the head of the spear, and then at the wooden guard, who looked like a lifeless guard, and only felt cold everywhere.
"We are from the Wuxiang Guard Battalion under the Imperial Horse Supervisor of the capital...", the Beijing soldiers who subconsciously stood in the front row shouted.
As soon as these words came out, a trace of shame flashed across his face.
According to the original plan, they would never report their home, but the other party would respectfully ask them for fear and trembling, and then they would say their names.
There was a man on the left side of the queue, a thin man.
"You and others have gathered to come, and they are not good at speaking and threatening with weapons, and it has become a trend of aggression against our fort, and now you are limited to quickly retreat or put down your weapons....." He said loudly.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Ding, who looked inconspicuous, had a loud voice, and the words were also clear and coherent, and word by word clearly came into the ears of everyone here.
The Beijing soldiers, who were originally surprised and a little stunned, made an uproar when they heard this.
"It's too arrogant!" Tie Qingmi, the leader of the three, shouted.
A small Tunbao guard dared to shout and order them to lay down their weapons!
"You framed our people, not only injured but also arrested our people, send them out quickly, and give us another explanation!" One of the directors of the Jingbing came out of the queue, and shouted in the same sharp voice.
"Yes, hand over our people!"
"It's so arrogant, it even said that we are violating, and it is obvious that you are the first to do evil!"
The Beijing soldiers immediately shouted one after another, waving the waist knife in their hands, and there was a lot of noise.
But they didn't hear it, and the team remained quiet and solemn.
"Again, warn, get out of the way, or lay down your weapons," cried the thin man, "or attack!" ”
Hearing this, everyone here burst into laughter.
"Also attack..."
As soon as the laughter began, the thin man stood back in the queue, and a drum beat sounded behind the queue.
"Warnings don't work, attack!"
With the shouting of this order, the originally solemn queue began to move forward.
The cavalry that had come out was divided into two sides, and their bows and arrows were spread on horseback, aiming at this side, while the infantry kept a uniform pace and approached step by step.
Really?
The noise of the Beijing soldiers here suddenly disappeared.
