Chapter 41: Conspiracy (2)
Xu Dingkun's brain followed Dong's guidance all the way, and finally came to a conclusion that he thought was undoubted.
"Ever since I met the couple, everything has not gone well. Living so big, where have I been beaten by my father? It's all because they ......."
As soon as Dong saw that her husband was in the trap, the topic changed, and she cried and fell at Xu Dingkun's feet, making a helpless appearance.
"People are now patting their butts and leaving with our family's gold and silver mountains, leaving our couple to suffer in the house!"
Xu Dingkun really took the bait, and slapped his thigh excitedly, just on the injured part, and grinned in pain.
"How can they slip away so easily!"
He was still angry with his wife before, and looked at her with some disgust and cried a handful of snot and tears, and her snot dragged on for a long time, looking disgusting.
"Go, go, old man's business, don't get involved! Don't stab Lao Tzu in the back. Forget it this time, there will be a next time, you don't have to say it, I will divorce you too! ”
Dong had long been accustomed to her husband's stinky temper, but anyway, the goal was achieved, so he listened to him and quit immediately.
"Our master does what he says, this time, that pair will have to suffer a little." Dong's dowry girl, Hongfang, carefully rubbed her knees.
"Hey, it's just a lawsuit. The old man can't do anything else, so let people take a sack to relieve his anger, but he has been doing it since he was a child...... Eh, you tap! ”
Dong waved away Hongfang's hand and stroked his red and swollen knees with pity.
"That's all the master's abilities." Dong sighed, half lying on the couch, and motioned for Hongfang to continue rubbing. "It's a good thing to be able to make them suffer some flesh and skin. But do you want to leave it at that? It's not that easy! ”
When Hongfang heard her tone, she knew that in her wife's heart, this Liang Zi had not passed. She secretly looked at Dong's expression and echoed and added.
"It's like, that's too cheap for them!"
Dong's eyebrows and eyes were soothing, rubbing the corners of his forehead, and his tone became slow and orderly.
"Sister-in-law said, this Qin family and her husband are both civilian cloth clothes, I don't see it. Can the old general send an escort, can it be an ordinary person? Good at maintenance, and good looks, I'm afraid there are some backgrounds. is acting so secretly, I'm afraid it's not going to do something shady. ”
She held up the soup beside her and used a spoon to pluck the soft white fungus.
"Hongfang, you go and instruct someone, send a message to my second brother, and ask what has happened in Liangzhou recently. He's been in the wine shop all day, but he can't even listen to it. ”
Dong can be said to know his husband well. Xu Dingkun's way of venting his anger was simple and rude. He had a clear mind, and since he had been beaten, the culprit had to be beaten even harder.
He selected a few guards who grew up together as the best candidates for the sack.
"I once heard that their group was going to Liangzhou to do business. With a carriage, from Ningshi to Liangzhou, this official road is most likely to be chosen. There are few people who go to Liangzhou, and they bring the guards in the house, you will not admit your mistake. ”
Xu Dingkun rubbed his palms, ignoring the painful injured leg, and excitedly paced back and forth in front of the sketched map.
"Change your clothes, try not to alarm the rest of the team, just catch the couple and beat them hard! Just leave them alone. ”
"Take a shortcut, go quickly. If they go to Liangzhou, it will be difficult to find! When I come back, I'll give you a great credit! Each person will receive a reward of 50 taels of silver! ”
Xu Dingkun's eyes lit up planned, if his legs weren't still hurting, he couldn't wait to go out in person and beat him up.
The guards hung their heads and scolded Xu Dingkun in their hearts for their imagination was simply fantastical.
There are only a few of them, but there are more than a dozen people in that team, and it is not easy to drag out the backbone of the main family and beat them under layers of defense! Such a dangerous thing like pulling a tiger's whiskers was said to be as easy as finding a bag, it was so hopelessly stupid!
Xu Dingkun laid out the plan, and the excitement went down, and the sense of crisis quietly emerged.
"Cover your faces, and do not be recognized. If you are not careful, you will be recognized by the people in the house," he paused, and bad water welled up in his stomach. "Don't blame me for turning my face and not recognizing people."
These people usually follow him, and the East Window incident happened, with his father's brain, how could he not have imagined that it was planned by himself. When the time comes, I don't know if this leg can be saved.
Several guards withdrew from his room with a bitter face, the two of them were the guests of the old general, and the second master had to find them unhappy, he really didn't have the eyesight to see, he didn't get beaten or who was beaten.
The second master is still ruthless, and the "turning his face and not recognizing people" in his mouth is not a joke. Not to mention that his life is in danger, I am afraid that it will affect his wife and children who serve in the house.
The main order had to be obeyed, and even if the guards were helpless, they had to take the order out of the house, thinking that they would finish the matter hastily and forget it.
The exile squad had the addition of the Xu Mansion's personal guards, and there were many people, and the speed of movement was a little slower. There was nothing to do on the road, and the work of eradicating Qin Shumei's illiteracy was put on the agenda again.
Yang Zhaoquan is a good teacher, and Qin Shumei's study of "Hundred Classics" has come to an end. Although he still writes badly, he can still understand the daily language.
"One more day, we will reach the border of Liangzhou." Yang Zhaoquan pointed out the approximate location of Liangzhou to Qin Shumei and handed her a piece of pancake.
Qin Shumei took a bite of the soybean sauce in front of him, looked in the direction of his finger, and nodded.
Liangzhou has a wide area, if Ningshi is a prefecture-level city, Yuankang City is a small county seat, then Liangzhou is the provincial capital. The holy decree said that they would be exiled to Liangzhou, but it did not specify where they would be exiled.
It's as if someone told you that there are treasures in the sea waiting for you to find, but only to show you the way to the Pacific Ocean. You don't know if it's time to dive all the way to the Mariana Trench to dig for treasure, or to take a boat to the Hawaiian Islands.
In normal exile, there should be an official letter from the place of passage to communicate the time of the prisoner's journey. Before officially hitting the road, there are a set of rules and procedures to be discussed about when to arrive at the transit place, when to arrive at the destination, and how to hand over the handover.
But they don't even have a rough plan, let alone the rules and procedures. Obviously, I have let go of myself and deviated all the way in the direction of self-driving travel.
However, Qin Shumei was only worried for a few seconds, and quickly let go of his worries and dipped in another mouthful of bean sauce. After all, the mystery of health preservation lies in being less nosy and less worried, and ensuring physical and mental well-being. Look at other people's turtles, shrink into their shells, don't ask anything, who can live better than others!
After she finished eating a piece of cake, she slapped the crumbs off her hand and pushed Yang Zhaoquan, who was as steady as a rock.
"Why don't you leave? With such a long break today? ”
"There are many bandits ahead, and it is not peaceful, and there are guards who take on the responsibility of scouts and go to investigate." Yang Zhaoquan's tone was solemn. "Liangzhou borders northern Xinjiang, which is not as peaceful as the Central Plains, and there are often tribal invasions. When you arrive in Liangzhou, you have to be careful everywhere. ”
Qin Shumei spread his hands helplessly.
"Since the two of us met, I have hardly left your sight, either Yanji followed, or Yanchang Yanfu followed, how could I have acted without permission? I'm sure I'll be honest, you don't have to worry too much! ”
In horror films, people who act alone are often the first to have a box lunch, and in idol dramas, the heroine acts alone either to meet the villain, or to wait for the male protagonist or male supporting actor to come to the rescue when she is in distress.
Breaking away from the army, picking flowers and scattering her heart, she would never do it.
