Chapter Twenty-Four: Li Tianba is dead

Ruo Su listened to the marshal's words, and felt that his father understood him, and what he thought was also what his father thought. After all, the father has not given them the real name, which shows that his dead mother still has a lot of weight in the father's heart, so he eased up: "The daughter knows that the father is hard, and the daughter is not embarrassed by the two of them." When my daughter gets married, I have to bother her to take care of her father, although I don't like them, but as long as my father likes it, my daughter will be nothing. ”

"Daughter, you are usually free of illness and disaster, why did you get sick when you went to encircle and suppress bandits? I heard that Fang Xu didn't catch any of them this time. The marshal was worried about Fang Xu's future.

Ruo Su's face was slightly red, and he prevaricated: "Yes, it must be because I am not by my father's side, so I love to get sick, and I have always been healthy with my father." The general probably wants to let them live, anyway, they won't be bandits again, this killing is better than saving people. ”

"Having said that, Fang Xu is not that kind of person." The marshal knew Fang Xu very well, and it was inconvenient for Ruo Su to say that Fang Xu had violated the orders of the imperial court because of himself. It's just that I'm a little worried that Fang Xu will be blamed for not doing anything good when he enters the court this time.

Lan Xiaoqiu walked in the garden, where the birds and flowers were fragrant, the lake was green, and the air was fresh and refreshing.

"I heard that the marshal has newly married a concubine?"

"Who, who?" Lan Xiaoqiu stood up and poked her head out to look at the top of the corridor, she was sure that the voice was coming from above, only to see one leg drooping down, Lan Xiaoqiu was startled, and then said angrily: "Fang Hao, this is the Marshal's Mansion, not your house, how can you sit on the top of the corridor?" ”

Fang Hao swung into the corridor from the top of the corridor, standing firmly in front of Lan Xiaoqiu, Lan Xiaoqiu said: "How old is a person, he is still like a child." ”

Fang Hao smiled: "I wanted to find the marshal, but I heard that Ruo Su didn't seem to be very happy." ”

"Of course, if your father finds a new wife, will you be happy?" After Lan Xiaoqiu finished speaking, seeing Fang Hao's face sank, he hurriedly shook his hand and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean that, in short, Miss Ruosu was very unhappy." ”

Fang Hao sighed: "I thought that Ruo Su had a big heart, but I didn't expect it to be like an ordinary daughter." ”

"Of course, if you've ever seen this pair of living treasures, you'll know why we don't like them."

"Sister Blue." On the other side of the corridor, the red rain called Lan Xiaoqiu sweetly and greasyly, and she had goosebumps all over her body.

Fang Hao said in Lan Xiaoqiu's ear, "She has been following you just now." ”

Lan Xiaoqiu looked at Fang Hao: "Then you also followed me just now?" ”

As he spoke, Hongyu had already run to Lan Xiaoqiu's side, holding a strand of hair from his ear, and said delicately: "This must be Brother Fang Hao." ”

"Brother Fang Hao?" Lan Xiaoqiu sneered.

Fang Hao clenched his fists: "Exactly, this must be the Red Rain girl." I've seen the Red Rain Girl. ”

The disdain on Hongyu's face before was swept away, but now it was the color of shame and shame, Lan Xiaoqiu saw the clue, and said with a sly smile: "You talk, I won't bother you." ”

"Hey!" Fang Hao wanted to stop Lan Xiaoqiu, but he heard the red rain pestering: "I have long wanted to meet General Fang Nian's two sons. ”

I only heard Fang Hao seem to smile bitterly, Lan Xiaoqiu laughed as he walked, very beautiful.

But before the evil smile on Lan Xiaoqiu's face faded, Fang Hao followed Lan Xiaoqiu over: "Wait for me." ”

Lan Xiaoqiu subconsciously looked back at Hongyu, but saw Hongyu stomping his feet anxiously, Lan Xiaoqiu knew that Hongyu hated himself in his heart.

"She seems to like you a lot, why don't you talk about it more, you haven't married a wife anyway, right? It just so happens that the elder sister marries the elder brother, and the younger sister marries the younger brother. Lan Xiaoqiu was even more proud, but heard Fang Hao say: "Li Tianba is dead." ”

"What?" Lan Xiaoqiu faded her smile: "How did she die?" How can you die? ”

Fang Hao said: "Not long after you left, he was injured by a dark arrow, and he died not long after. It seems that the person who wounded people with hidden arrows was not caught, and now his children are taking care of his posterity. ”

"Do you know who did it?" Lan Xiaoqiu felt sorry in her heart.

"I don't know." After Fang Hao finished speaking, he said, "Let me tell you, Li Tianba's death is not good for you. ”

"Do they suspect I did it?" Lan Xiaoqiu was the first to think of what Fang Hao meant by 'no benefit'.

"I don't know what his children think, but his men have already started to hunt you down, so do it yourself." Lan Xiaoqiu saw that Fang Hao was leaving, so he stopped Fang Hao: "Why do you think I did it?" Do they have evidence? ”

"Maybe they think that you and the general teamed up to trick them into letting down their vigilance, because this time the imperial court's order is to encircle and suppress the mountain bandits, and they want to kill Li Tianba. Although Fang Xu let Li Tianba go, he still died, and his death was unknown, so you would naturally be suspicious. ”

"They still suspect me of being a mole." Lan Xiaoqiu was a little sad.

"So the person who killed Li Tianba was a member of the imperial court? Lan Xiaoqiu thought of someone: "It won't be ......"

"Don't talk nonsense, everything will be revealed, I'm just here to inform you that it's okay to do it yourself, now that you are in the Marshal's Mansion, it is safe, if you go out and meet Li Tianba's men, just be careful, don't be afraid." After speaking, Fang Hao jumped on the roof and left.

Lan Xiaoqiu looked at Fang Hao's thief-like style and sighed, "What you said is too light, right?" Someone is going to kill me, can I not be afraid? ”

Lan Xiaoqiu ran back to the room and told Ruosu about Li Tianba's murder, Ruosu took Lan Xiaoqiu's hand: "You must follow me closely in the future, you don't know kung fu, I can still protect you." ”

Lan Xiaoqiu nodded: "I didn't expect them to think that I did it." ”

"That can't be helped, they live on the tip of a knife, they haven't known you for long, and they should be suspicious of you. However, poor Sister Lan fought for so many lives for them, and later she was misunderstood. Ruo Su was upset for Lan Xiaoqiu.

"Miss, Young Master Fang is here, and the marshal called you over." The maid ran to the door, and Ruo Su said, "Sister Lan is waiting here, I'll take a look." ”

Lan Xiaoqiu asked, "Is it Fang Xu?" ”

Ruo Su nodded: "Actually, Fang Hao never came to the Marshal's Mansion, presumably he must have come to tell Sister Lan about this." ”

"Why?" Lan Xiaoqiu asked.

"I'll tell Sister Lan in the future, you can rest first." Ruosu straightened the corners of his clothes and went out.

Lan Xiaoqiu was holding the teacup with a sad face, and now she was misunderstood by the people in the cottage, and she felt so uncomfortable. And he may be killed as soon as he goes out, Lan Xiaoqiu sighed: "Ancient people are too complicated, I didn't expect ancient times to be so dangerous." ”

Ruo Su entered the lobby and saw Fang Xu drinking tea with the marshal, Ruo Su listened to the marshal from afar: "Fortunately, the emperor is not to blame, and this Li Tianba is dead, which can be regarded as an explanation." ”

Fang Xu saw Ruo Su enter the door and hurriedly said loudly: "This Li Tianba's death is strange, I'm afraid that the people in the cottage have long been dissatisfied with him. ”

Ruo Su sat down, knowing that Fang Xu deliberately reminded himself aloud that Ruo Su was unhappy about Fang Xu's scheming.

"Ruosu, are you feeling unwell? You don't have to come over after a tired day. Fang Xu said with concern.

"Is it Li Tianba that you sent someone to kill?" Ruo Su suspected that Fang Xu's thief shouted to catch the thief.

"Ruosu, don't be rude." The marshal said sternly.

I saw Fang Xu smile: "How could I kill Li Tianba?" Didn't I go with you at the time? Besides, if I want to kill him, why should I let him go? I can kill him in prison, I want to arrest him alive and punish the emperor, even if he is extremely evil, I will not use lynching. ”

"Sister Kelan is now being hunted down by the copycats." Ruosu still didn't believe it.

"In fact, when Li Tianba promised Lan Xiaoqiu to do the dart business, I felt that Li Tianba would not live long. First, he has done too many evil things, who wants to give his things to a bandit to escort? Isn't that a meat bun beating a dog, and there is no return? Second, how could Li Tianba's subordinates be willing to do business with him, it must have been Li Tianba's subordinates. I heard that after they left, Li Tianba also quarreled with the people in the cottage once, and the people in the cottage did not hide Li Tianba's kindness, and they wanted to burn and loot the pleasure. After Fang Xu finished analyzing, Ruo Su understood a little and said, "Poor Sister Lan has become a scapegoat. ”

"Lan Xiaoqiu is indeed very dangerous now, and I want to tell her about it, but no one in the cottage should know that she is a woman, so she can be a cover. Now that she can't stay in the Marshal's Mansion, I think it's better to let her go to Fang's house to avoid it first, and when the people from the cottage come, they told them that Lan Xiaoqiu was sick and died on the road, and it was over. After Fang Xu finished speaking, Ruo Su said, "But Sister Lan and I have just been together and are about to separate." ”

The marshal said: "Ruosu, what Fang Xu said is right, Lan Xiaoqiu may not be in any danger in the marshal's mansion, but it is difficult to ensure that she does not go out." I think that soon the people in the cottage will be hiding around the Marshal's Mansion, even if they don't know that she is a woman, but after all, there are many people, and it is easy to reveal her identity. Let her follow Fang Xu back to Fang Mansion to be a cook first, and then return to you when the real murderer is caught. Besides, if you have nothing to do, you can also go to the Fang family to find Lan Xiaoqiu, General Fang is your future father-in-law has always liked you very much. "The marshal came up with an idea.

After hearing this, Fang Xu also nodded and said, "Yes, if it weren't for my father's poor health, he would have said that he would definitely come to see the marshal and Ruosu." ”

The next words, Ruo Su didn't listen to them, she felt that they were all polite greetings, but she kept measuring Lan Xiaoqiu's obedience in her heart.

Ruo Su returned to the room, took Lan Xiaoqiu's hand and said: "Sister Lan, if you are wronged, you will go to Fang's house to avoid the limelight first, the general said that it may be that the people in the cottage did not hide that Li Tianba wanted to do a dart business, and assassinated him with a grudge." However, they don't know your woman's identity yet, I don't think the name 'Lan Xiaoqiu' should be used, just call Qiu'er, and the general will take you back to the Fang family in a while." It's just that you're wronged that you're going to be a cook. ”

Lan Xiaoqiu didn't expect that he would have a bad fate, drifting to ancient times, and becoming homeless. I could only follow Fang Xu back to Fang's house, the legendary General Fang Nian was really weak, and his trembling body had to be served, even if he couldn't walk fast. Lan Xiaoqiu felt that he looked like a master, and he didn't have the majesty of a general at all. On the other hand, Mrs. Fang beside her had shrewd eyes and looked like a housekeeper.
