Chapter 150: Wang Xu is missing
Lu Hongbo and Lu Xueying's married life is relatively happy and complete. Especially after Lu Xueying gave birth to their eldest son last year, as long as she mentioned her husband and son, her face was full of happiness, and she was about to overflow.
Her mother-in-law, Lu, is even worse. Her greatest joy now is to help Lu Xueying coax the child. The degree of harmony between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law made Lu Xueying's relatives and friends secretly envious.
Wang Jibao thinks that a woman like Lu Xueying can be happy, because she knows how to cherish blessings.
Lu Yuan also came with him this time. Lu did not go with him because he was at home to take care of his grandson.
Because Lu Yuan has performed well in the past two years, Wang Jibao has asked Lu Yuan's official position back.
At the beginning, Emperor Yongsheng ordered that the people of the Lu family would never be hired, because Lu Yuan divided the sect, and because of Wang Xibao, Emperor Yongsheng still made an exception, not only returned the official position to Lu Yuan, but also gave Lu Yuan's two sons a good official this time.
When he was about to enter Fengbei County, Wang Yuxun decided that it would be safer to keep a low profile. So they divided the people into several ways.
One of them sent Dange back to the Shuiyue clan all the way, sent Wang Jibao and a few people to join the Pingbei Army and Wang Yuze all the way, and took him to the post.
As a local official, he can't casually enter the barracks, so Wang Yuxun can only let Lu Yuan follow Wang Jibao and the others.
After a few people separated and went on the road, if you are careful, you will definitely find that there are the most people and horses who will send Dange back to the Water Moon Clan, and they are all royal guards.
Wang Jibao took Zhao, Wang Xu, and Wang Brown to the direction of the military camp.
Because military camps are usually built in relatively remote places, the same is true for the Pingbei Army. Therefore, this way, whether it is in terms of food or housing, it has been significantly reduced by several levels compared with before.
The little fat man Wang Brown felt as if he had lost a lot of weight. But seeing that his little aunt, aunt and lobby brother had no complaints, he could only pout and swallow the words of complaint.
The group set off from Yongdu in the summer, and now it is late autumn but they are still on the road. It can be seen how inconvenient this transportation is.
It's not as comfortable camping outside now as it was a few days ago, especially with two kids. Therefore, on the itinerary, the group of them tried to hurry during the day, and in addition, they had to calculate the accommodation.
This time, they miscalculated.
It was already dark, and the group had not yet found a place to stay.
"Little aunt, we won't sleep outside today, will we?" Wang Brown and Wang Jibao rode in a carriage, while Wang Xu stayed with Zhao.
"We'll find out when the inquirer comes back later." Wang Xibao touched Wang Brown's head and replied with a smile.
"Oh." Wang Brown nodded obediently.
"What? Do you regret coming here with your little aunt? Otherwise, you are still living a good life in Yongdu. Wang Jibao laughed and joked about Wang Brown.
"I don't regret it. It was hard work to follow my little aunt to the north and south, but it was still very interesting. Doesn't the book say that it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read 10,000 books? Are we reading 10,000 books this time? Wouldn't it be possible to read less books in the future? Wang Brown said while getting tired of Wang Jibao's arms.
Wang Jibao smiled and touched Wang Brown's back, "We only went north this time, and we really didn't go south." However, Brother Brown still has to read a lot of books in the future. ”
Wang Jibao's action of stroking Wang Palm's back is the same as her usual stroking of Xiao Shan.
"County Lord." Sunny days are reported outside.
"But have you found a place to stay?" Wang Jibao asked.
"Yes. There is a small village in front of us. We have already contacted the village chief there, and when the time comes, we will find a farmer with better conditions. Sunny replied.
"Yes. When the time comes, we'll have some more silver. Don't forget to ask them to prepare some farmhouse meals for us. Wang Jibao commanded.
"Yes."
A few people's carriages stopped at a relatively wealthy family in the village.
Wang Jibao and several people got out of the carriage one after another.
Because Wang Jibao's appearance is too amazing, in order not to cause trouble, she will wear a hat to cover her face in front of outsiders.
The man of the house waited at the door early after getting the news.
"Madame, young lady, young masters, please. You're from afar, aren't you? The conditions of our small family are simple, please bear with me. "The man of this house is a black-faced man in his mid-thirties, with an ordinary face. The cocoon on his hand has a thick layer, similar to that of an ordinary farmer. But the words spoken were crepe, apparently studied.
As a passer-by, Wang Jibao did not need to inquire in detail. So he said politely: "It's disturbing." ”
"Don't bother, don't bother. It's not easy to go out and about. Who doesn't have a big affair? The black-faced man said with a smile.
Wang Jibao nodded, led Wang Brown to walk, and took a general look at the courtyard of the farmhouse.
I found that this family really belonged to a wealthy family among the farmers. Although the area is not very large, and there is no one built in the city, it seems that there are several rows of houses in the front and back.
Wang Jibao and the others were arranged in the third row of rooms.
For the sake of safety when going out, Wang Jibao and Wang Brown usually live in one room, and Zhao and Wang Xu live in one room. It's the same this time.
After eating, a few people washed up briefly, and then climbed onto the kang to sleep.
This type of kang is common in the north. But Wang Brown Wang and the little fat man slept on it for the first time. At first, it was still very novel, and the bones came and went on the kang, and it was a good toss. When he fell asleep, the little guy tossed even more.
After all, I'm not used to sleeping on this kind of hard kang, even if there are several layers of mattress under my body, it still makes people feel panicked. As a result, Wang Xiaofat's thick fat layer could not resist this discomfort, and he turned over after a while.
In this way, the harmful Wang Jibao didn't sleep well. Occasionally, she had to get up and pat the little fat man sleeping next to her.
Just when she got up again, she found that the shadows of two people were reflected in the window, and Wang Jibao put on her coat alertly, holding a short sword in her hand.
"Little" Wang Brown was in a daze and was about to speak, but Wang Jibao hurriedly reached out to cover his small mouth. Compare and measure a "shhh
Wang Brown blinked.
Wang Jibao let go of the hand covering his mouth, then raised her head and stared at the window.
Wang Xiaofatzi turned over with a bang. He also reached out and tightened his grip on the small short sword beside his pillow.
Since the last attack, both Wang Brown and Wang Xu have practiced martial arts more diligently. Zhu Linxi customized an ultra-light short sword for each of them as a self-defense.
"This time, we even robbed the little lady inside, right?" One of them whispered to the other.
"Isn't it just to rob the boys?" The other asked in a low voice.
"I'm afraid the little lady inside is a beauty?"
"It doesn't matter if she's a beauty or not, as long as she's a woman, it's very troublesome. Stop talking nonsense, grab that kid first. The other said impatiently.
"Okay, then listen to you."
Wang Jibao saw that the window of the room where he and Wang Brown lived had been pierced through a small hole from the outside, and then a small bamboo pipe had reached out.
Little Flash, who was asleep under their feet, chirped twice.
Wang Jibao hurriedly held her breath, and at the same time covered Wang Brown's mouth and nose with one hand, and took out two antidotes from her purse with the other hand.
One was stuffed into Wang Brown's mouth, and he swallowed the other.
Wang Jibao gestured at Xiao Shan, Xiao Shen jumped up quickly, and then penetrated directly from the window paper.
"Oh, I'm a dear mother! What is it? Yes! ”
This was followed by a few more "ahh
Wang Jibao didn't pay attention to the two people outside.
"Brother Brown, follow me." After Wang Jibao finished speaking, he turned over and got off the kang, put on his shoes, and led Wang Brown out to check.
Sure enough, I saw that the bright sun on duty today had been overwhelmed by the psychedelic incense. She approached the sun and took an antidote and stuffed it into her mouth.
Then, he took Wang Brown's hand and ran to Zhao and Wang Xu's house.
At this moment, several people from Liangchen, Meijing and Qingtian had already walked out of the room and came to her. Outside the rooms of several people, two thieves had also been taken down.
This time, thanks to Meijing's cleverness, he found that the smell in the air was wrong, and hurriedly asked a few people to hold their breath. So a few people just inhaled a little bit of psychedelics. But the dose of psychedelic drugs this time was really not small, and just a little bit made them dizzy for a while.
"County Lord, are you alright?" When several people saw Wang Jibao and Wang Brown coming, they immediately asked with concern.
"I'm fine. Let's go see my sister-in-law and brother Xu. Wang Jibao hurriedly ordered.
When a few people rushed into Zhao and Wang Xu's room, they saw Zhao fainting on the kang, and Wang Xu had disappeared.
Wang Xibao hurriedly gave Zhao an antidote, and then handed Zhao and Wang Brown over to Liangchen to take care of. She went out to look for Wang Xu with beautiful scenery and sunny days.
"Little Flash." Before Wang Jibao blew the whistle, Xiao Shan had already thrown himself into Wang Jibao's arms.
Wang Jibao touched Xiao Shan's head to show praise. Xiao Shan had just easily bitten the two thieves outside her window to death.
Wang Jibao jumped to the roof with light skills. looked around, and sure enough, the Ming Wei and the dark guard guarding outside had already been hit, and they were all lying in place.
She narrowed her eyes wide, and her expression was quite serious.
This group of thieves is really bold enough to calculate on their heads. And judging from the current situation, this group of people must be people who often commit crimes, so they can handle things so neatly.
And this family is obviously a den of thieves, and they are in the mouth of a tiger this time.
No wonder Wang Jibao always feels that she has neglected something? It turned out that the cocoon on the man's hand was not sharpened by doing farm work, but the reason for long-term sword practice.
"County Lord." After the sun woke up, he hurried over.
"It's fine if you're okay." Seeing Yanyang's self-reproachful expression, Wang Jibao comforted her.
"I'm fine, thank you."
