His daughter was divorced, she lost her backer and dignity, and Governor Meng had nowhere to vent her anger, so she transferred her anger to Ling Xiao Inn, holding a grudge against Ling Chaofeng.

However, because of the power of the capital, he didn't dare to touch him, so he could only do it secretly.

The day after Lian Yi was placed under house arrest, Governor Meng gathered a group of ruffians and hooligans, a formation of more than ten or twenty people, and ordered them to attack the inn when the night was dark and the wind was high. If you can rob and smash, don't be polite, if you can beat Ling Chaofeng, can hurt him or even take his life, he will be rewarded.

But that night, the mighty dart bureau passed by, waiting for the earliest boat tomorrow, and stayed overnight at the Lingxiao Inn. There were more than a dozen people in the dart team, all of whom were extraordinary, and the group of hooligans broke in, and they were regarded as robbers, and they immediately started fighting.

Xiaowan was in a dream at the time, only heard the sound of ping-pong downstairs, she was half-asleep and half-awake, and when she saw that Xianggong was not around, she was about to get up to see the situation, but before she put on her soft shoes, Ling Chaofeng came back, pushed her down gently and said, "What do you do when you get up, be careful of catching a cold, and fall asleep." ”

"Xianggong also went to bed early." Xiaowan was in a daze, turned over and fell asleep again.

Early the next morning, she went downstairs to the kitchen to prepare breakfast as usual, she didn't care about the downstairs scene, and when she reached the staircase, she was startled and shouted out of her voice, but Xianggong only stood on the third floor and said to her: "Don't be afraid, they can't move." ”

In the lobby, the table of the Eight Immortals was pushed open, and more than a dozen people in black were tied up tightly, blindfolded and gagged, just on the cold floor, the day in February was still very cold, and they all froze and wilted overnight.

Xiaowan remembered the movement she heard last night, and dared to love the inn was robbed? How could she sleep so deeply, damn it.

However, the dart masters were still waiting for breakfast, she hurried to the kitchen, Uncle Biao also got up, steamed steamed buns with noodles, boiled porridge and fried side dishes, and when they came out again, they saw the dart masters kicking and kicking those people to the corner, and set up the table of the eight immortals again, so that Xiaowan could serve the food.

After they had eaten their fill, they were going to the dock to take a boat, said goodbye to Ling Chaofeng in front of the door, and said to Xiaowan: "Mrs. Sister-in-law, cook for our brother in the morning." ”

Xiaowan's face was red, she stood beside Xianggong, and said gently: "You're welcome." ”

They said to Ling Chaofeng again: "No matter where these beasts come from, if they dare to get along with the inn, they can't get along with us, if Shopkeeper Ling needs it in the future, just greet his brothers." ”

Ling Chaofeng thanked them, sent them on the road, and then went back to the store, Xiaowan saw a person being piled up in the corner of the wall struggling and writhing, she was really scared, and hid beside Ling Chaofeng and said timidly: "Xianggong, do you want to keep them here all the time?" ”

Ling Chaofeng smiled faintly, and on the other side, Ershan and Uncle Biao had already rolled up their sleeves and were ready to stand by.

The group of people were put on sacks and loaded onto the cart like goods, Uncle Biao and Ershan drove the car in the direction of Baisha Town, and walked around the town with a swagger, on the way, a person struggled to roll off the cart, and passers-by were shocked when they saw a person's head poking out of the sack.

Uncle Biao often shows his face in the town, and many people know that he is the chef of the inn, what is this Lingxiao Inn doing

There were more than a dozen sacks on the car, piled up tall and tall, could it be all people?

They turned around like this, and then turned back again, but ran all the way to the Baisha River wharf, did not stop at the inn, Xiaowan watched Uncle Biao and Ershan gallop away in a cart, and ran back to ask Ling Chaofeng: "Xianggong, where are they going to transport those people to Uncle Biao?" ”

Ling Chaofeng said: "Sell a slave trader and transport it directly by boat." ”

Xiao Wan knew that Xianggong could eat both black and white, but when he heard him say that he was dealing with traffickers, he was still stunned.

Ling Chaofeng asked her: "These people, on weekdays, rob houses and rob women, what do they keep for?" They are not worthy of being human beings, and since they are sent to the door, I will deal with them easily, and it is just a trivial matter. ”

Xiao Wan trembled in her heart and asked, "The one who came to the inn to look for trouble was also sold to slave traders like this?" ”

Ling Chaofeng looked at her with a smile: "Then what do you want to see, we have a bride at that time, who ran away and bites, and asked me to follow Tuan Tuan, I was not willing to sell her." ”

Xiaowan said anxiously: "People tell you seriously." ”

Ling Chaofeng disagreed: "This kind of thing will happen in the future, you won't be afraid after more experience, we are in the rivers and lakes, there must always be some enemies and mortal enemies, otherwise what are the rivers and lakes called?" ”

"I'm worried about you." Xiaowan said, and touched her husband's body, "You fought last night, were you hurt?" I was damn good, I slept so deeply and didn't know anything. ”

Ling Chaofeng said gently: "There are few people in this world who can hurt me, don't worry. He added, "I told you early in the morning that I would inevitably be frightened if I followed, didn't you say that as long as I am here, you are not afraid?" ”

"What I remember, I'm not afraid." Xiaowan said, "But it's ......"

"But what?"

"Nothing." Xiaowan shook her head and raised a smile, "With the prime minister, I'm not afraid of anything." ”

At this time, Aunt Zhang was going to clean the guest room, so Xiao Wan followed upstairs, and when Aunt Zhang went down to change the water, and when she came up again, she saw the little lady squatting on the ground, touching the ring on her hand, and was in a daze.

"Afraid the ring will get dirty?" Aunt Zhang asked, "This ring, still can't be taken off?" ”

Xiao Wan hummed, quickly picked up a rag to wipe the floor, quickly wiped the bottom of the whole room clean, and went to the next room.

Aunt Zhang looked at her and felt that the little lady had something on her mind.

Xiao Wan really had something on her mind, because she suddenly realized that the wish jade ring that was mischievous on Ling Chaofeng's body could not be fulfilled for her, did that mean that her wish to be fair, safe and healthy would not work?

Although this jade ring was inexplicable, it shouldn't have been a blessing for her, but since she had it, she couldn't use it, so she couldn't figure it out.

In particular, why is it not working for Ling Chaofeng, no matter how she tries, there is no result.

However, Xiao Wan pleaded with the jade ring more than once to bless her husband with good health, she would rather never have the divine power of the ring again, and hoped that even if it worked once, Ling Chaofeng would not suffer any harm for the rest of his life.

"Late?" Aunt Zhang followed to this room and asked with concern, "What's wrong with you today, you were scared by those little thieves?" ”

Xiaowan shook her head: "I'm fine, auntie, I'm really fine." ”

Aunt Zhang looked at her and said with a smile: "Silly girl, you can't hide things on your face." ”

Xiaowan made an excuse and said, "I—I'm worried about Miss Meng." ”

Aunt Zhang believed it, and said worriedly: "I don't know how she is now, Ershan stood alone in the courtyard last night, and I think he was thinking about his sweetheart." But that kid doesn't know or understands, he can't give anything to others now, but he can afford to wait, I'm afraid that Miss Meng can't afford to wait. ”

Downstairs, Uncle Biao and Ershan came back, they really sold the group of hooligans to slave traders, Uncle Biao shouted downstairs: "Evening, let's go to the town to sell buns together tomorrow." ”

However, at this moment, the entire Baisha Town, along with the nearby villages, spread the news all the way, all saying that the Lingxiao Inn had transported more than a dozen people, and I don't know whether they were dead or alive, and the black shop was really still a black shop.

When the news reached the ears of Governor Meng, he knew why he waited for a long time and didn't see that group of people come back, but they were all taken down by Ling Chaofeng?

Governor Meng couldn't help but panic, he couldn't do it openly, not secretly, but if he did this, wouldn't he give Ling Chaofeng a chance to deal with him?

When he was upset, a spirit flashed, stood still and said loudly: "Come on, go to Siyun Pavilion in Baisha Town, and find Yue Huaiyin." ”

In Siyun Pavilion, the people were also talking about the Lingxiao Inn using a board car to pull people, that is, they knew that their young lady had dealings with the inn, and the relationship between Su Su and Mrs. Chen, and they couldn't figure out what was right and evil there.

At noon, Yue Huaiyin received a message from the prefect of Meng's mansion, asking her to go to the prefect's yamen quickly.

I don't know what the old fox is discussing with Yue Huaiyin, and this whole day, Xiaowan is sullen here, and he is unhappy because the jade ring can't be good for Ling Chaofeng.

In the evening, Ershan brushed the horse in the stable, Xiaowan brought him water, saw Ershan sighed softly, and asked, "Are you thinking about Miss Meng?" ”

Ershan bowed his head, looked to the side, and said, "Don't mention it to the shopkeeper, I don't want to cause trouble for the inn again." ”

Xiaowan thought, Ling Chaofeng was going to take Governor Meng away from Lizhou, and there was no trouble at the inn, but Miss Meng followed his father, at the end of the world, how to meet again in the future?

"When you win the lift, marry Miss Meng back and leave her in that family, you don't feel at ease, right?" Xiaowan said with a smile, "If you marry, you will be justified, and you will no longer be afraid that anyone will take her away." ”

Ershan smiled bitterly: "How can it be so easy, Xiao Wan, even if I am lifted, I have nothing, she will only suffer if she follows me, not to mention, maybe it's just my wishful thinking." ”

Xiaowan got angry: "You are a big man, how can you twist and pinch, don't you like her?" The husband recognized me, but immediately asked the matchmaker to marry me. ”

How can this be the same, Xiaowan's mind is simple, Ershan is not simple, he wants to speak and stop, he can only clench his fists tightly, turn around and continue to brush the horse hard.

That night, Xiaowan did something she never dared to do, she had made a wish to let Ershan successfully participate in the hospital exam, but there were twists and turns, although he was still admitted in the end, but Xiaowan couldn't figure out whether the ring had a manifestation or not. As for Ling Chaofeng, she almost gave up tossing, and she could only rely on herself to take good care of Xianggong in the future.

But tonight, she clenched her fists and made a very vicious wish, looking forward to the Meng Governor's Mansion and never seeing the sun tomorrow again.

At that time, Ling Chaofeng was lying next to her, and he could feel that the little lady's anger disappeared in an instant, and he turned to look sideways at his wife, who was sleeping peacefully for a while, in fact, he had long felt that Xiaowan was a little weird, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

It was night, the prefect's mansion exploded, and Meng Lianyi, who was half-asleep and half-awake, was woken up by her maidservant, who was so frightened that her face turned pale and said, "Miss, miss, the master is gone, the master is gone." ”

What does it mean to be gone? He's dead?

Meng Lianyi didn't have time to get dressed, wrapped in a robe and rushed to her aunt's yard, that night the scathing woman was curled up in the corner in despair, she was not clothed, she seemed to be fighting with the old man, and the old man on the bed was already dying.

The doctor rushed over, touched and touched Governor Meng's body, and sighed: "Ladies and young masters, the festival is smooth." ”

"Master......" Mrs. Meng cried heartbreakingly, the whole family fell into grief and panic, and no one came to stare at Meng Lianyi, but she had to follow her mother, she was disheartened with her father, and there was no grief at all, and her mother couldn't ignore it after all.

The next day, the news spread, and Li Zhutou rushed to the prefect's mansion early in the morning with the county magistrate to discuss how to deal with the aftermath with the magistrates of several other counties.

And Lingxiao Inn, but today pulled a carriage to the town to sell steamed buns, but unfortunately in addition to familiar customers, there are a lot of steamed buns left that can't be sold, after all, yesterday they pulled a cart of people in sacks to swagger through the market, today naturally no one dares to eat their buns.

"Uncle Biao, Governor Meng died suddenly last night." The old guest who came to buy steamed buns said to Uncle Biao, "The news that came this morning said that he died of a stroke, and when he was upside down with his concubine at home, he suddenly died. ”

Uncle Biao smiled coldly: "Yes, it's a pity." ”

Xiao Wan swallowed a mouthful of saliva on the side, a heart seemed to forget to beat, was it because of her, she killed someone?

At this time, Su Su came to the bridge to buy twenty steamed buns, and said that the young lady asked Uncle Biao to go to the store to sit and rest after selling the buns, and said that she would prepare a new balm powder to give to Xiaowan.

Xiao Wan Mumu didn't listen to anything, Su Su said a few more words, and then rushed back to the store with the hot buns.

In front of the rouge shop, Yue Huaiyin was talking with the neighbors under the eaves, listening to their chatter, saying that the prefect suddenly died.

She held the stove in her hand, gently flicked the brass ring on the lid, and smiled faintly.

Yesterday, she left some things for Governor Meng's mansion, which could help him lose his soul and devour his bones, but if she happened to lose her life, it would be no wonder to her.
