Chapter 48: Clever Tips

After Zhu Chongba was escorted away by Guo Zixing, Xu Biyi became anxious. She stepped forward and dragged Ma Xiuying's hand, and kept asking, "Miss Ma, do you ...... Do you think the heavy starling will be fine? What do you say? Miss Ma, you quickly think of a way, or we will beg the marshal again....." Xu Biyi's tears flowed in her eyes.

Ma Xiuying originally knew that Xu Da and Chu Liuyan left together, but Xu Biyi did not follow. She originally thought that Xu Da was afraid that her sister would be tired, so she didn't take her sister with her. Now, it seems, that's not the case at all. From Xu Biyi's anxious state, Ma Xiuying could see at a glance that Xu Biyi's feelings for Zhu Chongba were not just brother and sister.

She felt some sympathy for Xu Biyi in her heart, so she gently patted Xu Biyi's shoulder with her hand and said, "Biyi, don't panic first, let me think about what I can do." ”

Xu Biyi frowned and cried: "Miss Ma, you are thinking about ideas here, I will go and tell Brother Chang them now." I also taught them to think about it and see if they could get my brother out. If I had listened to Sister Chu's words earlier, I wouldn't have had so many things happen if I had left here. Xu Biyi said, covering her face with her hands, tears leaking out of her fingers.

Ma Xiuying dragged Xu Biyi and said to her in a serious voice: "Biyi, listen to me, don't tell Chang Yuchun about this matter for the time being." Often encounters spring impulsiveness, and will definitely rob people. When the time comes, if you offend the generalissimo, not a single one will be able to escape. ”

Xu Biyi looked at Ma Xiuying pitifully, tears welling up: "Miss Ma, what do you say?" If only my brother and sister Chu were here. They must have a way to rescue the heavy starling. ”

Ma Xiuying lowered her head and thought for a while, and said: "So far, what else can I do, I can only take one step, count it as one step." Biyi, although Chongba and I only have the name of husband and wife, not husband and wife, but he is always my husband. If you believe me, I'll try to save him. If my father really just kept him in prison for twenty days, it would be nothing, and I was afraid that something would happen along the way. ”

"What will happen?" Xu Biyi's face turned as white as paper.

"I'm afraid," Ma Xiuying hesitated for a while, but still confided her worries: "I'm afraid that someone will poison Chongba's meal." ”

"Huh? So what to do? How can you remind the heavy starling to know? Xu Biyi sat down on the chair weakly, her eyes empty and blank.

"Juhachi is so smart, I'm sure he won't be fooled easily. Don't worry just yet. You go and tell Tang He quietly, teach him not to make a noise, and let him help inquire about the news, and see how the marshal disposes of Chongba. When I came back, I told me that I would think about it again. Remember, don't tell Chang Yuchun. Ma Xiuying pondered for a moment and said to Xu Biyi.

Xu Biyi wiped away her tears and did as Ma Xiuying instructed. She found Tang He and told Tang He what had happened. There are also three people that Tang He usually admires the most, one is Lan Yu, one is Chu Liuyan, and the other is Zhu Chongba. When he heard that Zhu Chongba was in danger, he immediately ran to inquire.

Tang Pingli was not in the same party as Zhu Chongba, he was later, and he was brought by the Chen family, so Guo Zixing took special care of him. Not long after he arrived, he had already made him a thousand households and let him work under Lan Yu.

It just so happened that Guo Hui had a girl under him, Yiyi, who liked Tang He's straightforwardness, and Tang He taught her to help find out the news. It only took half a day for Yiyi to bring news of Zhu Chongba. She learned from Guo Hui's conversation with Chen that Zhu Chongba had been imprisoned in a haunted house in Maozhou. There were soldiers guarding the outside, and no one was allowed to go in to visit Zhu Chongba during the past 20 days, nor was he allowed to bring him any food or water.

After Tang He found out the news, he hurriedly told Xu Biyi. When Xu Biyi heard this, her eyes turned red. If you are not allowed to deliver food and water for 20 days, won't that mean that you will starve the starling to death?

The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became, ignoring Ma Xiuying's warning, and ran to tell Chang Yuchun. When Chang Yuchun heard this, his eyes were red with anger at that time. He brought an axe and ran to the haunted house in a rage to save Zhu Chongba. As a result, before he could get close to the haunted house, he was beaten down by the soldiers guarding the surrounding area.

After Guo Zixing learned about this, he ordered to beat Chang Yuchun's fifty military sticks to set an example. Chang Yuchun beat him half-dead, but fortunately, Li Shanchang and others took care of him.

Xu Biyi couldn't help but deeply regret that she didn't listen to Ma Xiuying's words and told Chang Yuchun the news, causing Chang Yuchun to be beaten. In desperation, she remembered Ma Xiuying again, so she had to go back to find Ma Xiuying.

Ma Xiuying already knew that Chang Yuchun was beaten, she saw that Xu Biyi was really pitiful, thinking about how she was trapped by love and worse than dead, she felt a little more pity for Xu Biyi for no reason, and she didn't blame her.

Xu Biyi saw Ma Xiuying and just cried. Ma Xiuying persuaded her: "My father clearly wants to put eight to death. How can a person live without eating or drinking for twenty days? ”

Xu Biyi knelt down and pleaded: "Miss Ma, please, please save Brother Chong." I promise you, in the future, if you stay away from the heavy starling, you will never say a word to him again, and you will never see him again. For the sake of your husband and wife, save him. ”

Ma Xiuying helped Xu Biyi up, taught her to sit down, and said to her: "Biyi, I didn't anger you because you like Chongba, and I never angered him. Chonghachi and I are just friends, and we can't talk about any feelings in the first place. But he is always my nominal husband, and I will definitely find a way to save him. ”

Ma Xiuying and Xu Biyi planned for a long time, but they still couldn't think of any good way. Ma Xiuying suddenly thought of someone, so she said to Xu Biyi: "Biyi, I heard that there is a person named Li Shanchang, who is Zhu Chongba's good brother. Not only can he write well, but he is also very smart. Let's find him and hear what he thinks. ”

In the middle of the night, the two of them took advantage of the darkness and no one saw them, and quietly walked to the camp where Li Shanchang lived and asked him what he should do. Li Shanchang lived in a camp with Chang Yuchun and others, and the people in it were all good brothers who had followed Zhu Chongba at the beginning. Despite this, out of prudence, Li Shanchang quietly brought the two people out.

Ma Xiuying told the story again. Xu Biyi cried: "Brother Li, you and Brother Chong have always been brothers, you must think of ways to save him." ”

Li Shanchang stroked his beard, thought for a while, and said, "I already knew about this matter. I've been thinking about it for a long time, but I still can't think of a good way. The marshal gave the order that whoever approached the haunted house half a step would be killed. It's really difficult to rescue Juhachi. ”

Xu Biyi suddenly burst into tears, she looked at Li Shanchang and asked, "Brother Li, isn't there a way to rescue Brother Chong?" If the heavy starling dies, I ...... I'm not going to live anymore..... If only Sister Chu and Big Brother were here, maybe they could figure out a way. They are strong in martial arts, and they may be able to rescue the heavy starling....."

"Miss Chu?" Li Shanchang's eyes suddenly had a little brilliance. He stroked his beard and said, "When Biyi mentioned Miss Chu, I remembered one thing. It's all because I'm so confused, how can I forget such an important thing. Wait here for a while, and I'll fetch it. After saying that, Li Shanchang went into the camp tent to get something.

After a while, he walked out, holding a bag in his hand. He said: "This is what Miss Chu gave me when Miss Chu and Tiande left a few days ago. She once told me that if something happened to Zhu Chongba, she could take it apart and look at it, but I forgot about it. ”

"Then open it up and take a look." Xu Biyi couldn't wait to grab the tips. Li Shanchang and Ma Xiuying stepped forward.

Xu Biyi opened the bag, and there was a note inside, and there were only a few words written on the note: "If you are in danger, beg Xiuying to beg." ”
