Chapter 207: Human life is like a mustard

Chapter 207

But he didn't want the man in black to be affectionate and solemn, his face was cold, and when he saw that the scene was controlled, he gave his hand and said coldly: "Next, I will hand it over to you, I am the secret guard of His Royal Highness King Rui, and I am ordered to escort the general's wife and xiǎo jiě into Beijing." 【Fengyun Reading Network. 】”

Say, the person who came flashed and left. And at this time, the six sons and others reacted, it turned out that there were always high-ranking people around them, but it was ridiculous that they never found out. Just before when I was in the Yueling area, I found a few bandits following with their claws, and secretly intimidated them and gave up. But he didn't want to, the real master wouldn't give him a chance to find the clue at all.

Anyway, a life-threatening assassination was over. At this time, the originally clean and tidy post station was also like a bloody wash, and it was a mess everywhere. The entire second floor of the post station is full of blood and is disgusting. Looking at the broken corpses one by one, as well as the corpses of the guys covered in blood, not to mention the big girl and the green and red plums, even Lin Baozhu was a little distraught.

Subconsciously, she covered the eyes of the eldest girl, and then used her body to block Qingqing and Hongmei's sight. Although she didn't know why she was assassinated, she also had a guess in her heart, presumably it was either related to her man's exploits on the battlefield, or she was targeted by a certain force in the capital.

Although Lin Baozhu has never experienced this, she is not stupid, and the tragedy and cruelty in her eyes made her think of many things in an instant. Thinking of the words of the old man Zhao before leaving, the struggle between the political parties and sects in the capital, and the innocent sacrifices in the private dirtiness and power struggle of those bureaucrats.

To be honest, if she hadn't been soberly aware of what it meant for her man to enter the capital and enter the center of power, then now, she is completely clear. Not only glory and wealth, but also bottomless danger and darkness.

"Sister-in-law, you go to the room of the two girls next door first, we will clean it in a while, let's go." Liuzi was rarely serious, and the look on his face was very bad, but he tried his best to relax his voice and said, "I'll let someone report to the official in a while, and the rest of the matter here has nothing to do with us." ”

Lin Baozhu took a deep breath, but she didn't want to enter her nose with a disgusting smell of blood, but she still suppressed the panic in her heart and nodded, paused and said: "Look at how everyone is, if there is an injury, bandage and treat it on the spot." ”

The sister-in-law was shocked by himself more than once, from the beginning when the eldest brother was wronged, he admired his sister-in-law's calmness and assertiveness. Now seeing that the sister-in-law is in the killing land, she can still speak calmly, and even protect the eldest girl and the two maids, instead of screaming and screaming at the slightest disturbance like other women, how can he not be more respectful?

To be honest, the remaining few people who thought that the sister-in-law was too gentle before, are also full of admiration at this time. is not afraid of danger in the face of danger, and can still make arrangements, Xu is such a sister-in-law can be worthy of an iron-clad general.

A few of them followed the general for a long time, and after hearing the general, everyone avoided him as a flood beast at first, and only his wife treated him wholeheartedly. The general, who was regarded as a villain at the beginning, was taken care of by his sister-in-law to live, and that feeling was beyond the reach of ordinary people. Not to mention, now it seems that Mrs. is the real woman who does not let her eyebrows go, even if she has no power to restrain the chicken, she will never be caught.

Thinking about it, women such as the Xiong family, who were born to grow up in a wealthy family, and Mrs., a woman who started from scratch but can create a career that is not as good as a man, is really worthy of attention. And such a lady seems to be a match for the general's talent.

At this moment, no one will feel that Mrs. is weak, and no one will feel that Lin Baozhu is just a woman, and she has a good life because of the general's merits.

Back in the room, Lin Baozhu softly comforted the eldest girl and Hongmei, and of course, a Qingqing who pretended to be calm. Xu was that her voice was so soft that several frightened girls hugged her and cried bitterly, and the tears were completely wet after a while.

However, she did not forcibly comfort her, but just stroked the backs of several people and remained silent. When this kind of thing happens, even she is flustered, but she is afraid that others will worry and dare not show it. And the three little ones, if they don't cry, she is the one who has to worry.

As the crying of several people became smaller and smaller, Lin Baozhu spoke carefully, and asked the eldest girl and Hongmei to thank Qingqing.

"Qingqing, you can protect us, I am grateful from the bottom of my heart, you are a good boy, no matter what thoughts you had before, as long as the Zhang family does not fall in the future, I will protect you for a day. When you grow up, I will return the deed of sale to your family, and then I will personally buy a dowry for you. Lin Baozhu stretched out his hand to wipe the tears on Qingqing's face, feeling uncomfortable to be hurt by the three little crying hearts. Now seeing that Qingqing still has fear in his eyes, but he can't hold back his tears and dare not cry anymore, his heart is sour and uncomfortable.

To be honest, she originally wanted to take them to see the capital together, but she didn't want to go out this time and almost be killed.

"Madam, I don't" Qingqing saw that Lin Baozhu said solemnly, and hurriedly spoke, and wanted to refuse with a choked voice. Madame can let her live with xiǎo jiě, and she can also use pen, ink, paper and inkstone to read and write, it is like a dream, where does she dare to hope for more.

Lin Baozhu saw that she was about to speak, so he patted her hand and said sincerely: "It's not just you, Hongmei is the same, if nothing else, today we can be regarded as an escape from death, and we will suffer together, and the three of you will protect and support each other in the future, and your feelings will always be different from others." Naturally, I will value you more. ”

She is not a virgin, and she can't say anything to treat as a daughter. To be honest, even if she is grateful, she can't say too much. After all, in this era, it is not the same society as in the previous life, and if she lets others know, she will also say that her gratitude is a false benevolence and false righteousness, and there is no distinction between respect and inferiority. After all, in the eyes of most masters, maids, especially slaves who have signed a death contract, have their lives from the master's family, and they are at the disposal of sales. Sensei said that he was protecting, even if he died to save people, it was a matter of course.

Now that they are going to the capital, there will be more battles to be encountered, and they don't know what is going on in the open and in the dark. If you talk too much, you will inevitably attract criticism and cause trouble for your own man.

This is also what Old Man Zhao secretly instructed her several times, so that she should not be rash, don't do whatever she wants, you need to know that the capital is the most important place with the most rules and the most respectful and humble.

After appeasing the three eldest girls, the six sons also took care of it outside. It was said that it was taken care of, but in fact it was just a matter of picking up their own gifts and hand-picking them up to the carriage, and then leading the horses out. Thinking about it, whether the local government takes over and continues to investigate the case, or whatever, they have no reason to fiddle with those corpses and people at will. But even so, the sixth son still managed to hide the live mouth that Yang Yong had caught, and just waited for him to be sent to the eldest brother for careful interrogation.

When he went out, Lin Baozhu's eyes couldn't help but sweep over the post man who died innocently because of them, but it was the one who gave him a guide before noon. She still vividly remembered that the young man was happy to say many flattering words because of her bounty, and said that he would leave them an extra mushroom ravioli for dinner.

She suppressed the fear and indignation in her heart, took a deep breath and turned her head away, but the enthusiastic "Madame" who flattered her, and the flattering but amusing words of the guy, echoed in her ears, and seemed to be unable to dissipate. Xu is guy was just looking forward to coming back and giving another reward, and then looking forward to bringing back more silver to his family the next day, but he didn't want to, and now he is innocent and dead.

Lin Baozhu couldn't tell what she felt in her heart, so she could only clench her fists silently, and then instructed Liuzi to help inquire about the follow-up, so that she had to know whether she had understood this matter and whether those who died in vain had been wronged.

The post station where the fight took place was already a mess, and the whole scene was very tragic, and even the backyard was full of blood. She gritted her teeth, suppressed the tremors all over her body, and then stepped forward step by step on the trail of blood that had not yet dried.

Qingqing, who followed closely behind her, snuggled up to each other with Hongmei and the eldest girl, and did not dare to take their eyes off the lady, for fear of seeing dead people or blood in the blink of an eye. Their eyes were red, their voices were blocked, and they were a little unstable. But looking at the sad back of the lady, and the firm step by step, they can't drop the chain.

After getting into the carriage, Lin Baozhu clenched his fists tightly, and his pale face was a little gloomy. She didn't know what was going on with the rest of the station, whether they had survived and found a place to curl up and escape, or if they had suffered as misfortune as the guy. She didn't even dare to look at it, so she could only sit as she did now, waiting for the sixth son to come back and ask.

Speaking of which, a few cooks and chefs who were originally busy in the backyard were also frightened at this time, hugging each other and crying bitterly. Somehow, when they reacted, they had already been tied up and thrown in the firewood room, and when they were rescued, they saw that the yard was full of dead people. They didn't dare to move, so they could only hug each other and comfort each other, and several bold masters helped each other to get up, but they didn't want to stumble and fall to the ground.

It wasn't until the government sent someone to come that they recovered from their panic and left the place with their teeth chattering.

"Madame, rest assured, only one of the men at the post station was killed by mistake because of screaming, and the rest were not injured, but only frightened. Now that the government has sent someone to pick it up, everyone must be safe by this time. ”

Hearing the sixth son's reply, Lin Baozhu breathed a sigh of relief, thought about it, and said, "Sixth son, later you have someone send a letter to Zhang Ji to see how to help that guy's family." After all, he was implicated by us, and there had to be a good settlement for his family. ”
