Chapter 19: Assassination of the Enemy Chieftain (4)
Wang Shuqiu lay down, thinking about the thrilling scene last night, and couldn't help but take a long breath, glad that she could get out of the way. She looked at the beams of the room, and suddenly remembered the masked man last night, without whom he would not have escaped from the barracks. Who is this masked man? He knew himself, but he couldn't remember any of them. It seems to mention Master Zhi, who is the old man of the master. Last night's assassination not only successfully completed the task, but also obtained unexpected joy, and actually avenged the master.
She thought back to the swordsman she had fought against last night. This person's swordsmanship is pure, and he is not a dangerous trick to beat him. How could such a skilled swordsman appear in the Jin Kingdom, could it be that the little Jin Kingdom masters also gathered? In short, Wang Shuqiu was very happy that she was finally able to save dozens of lives, and finally did something of immeasurable merit. She seemed to have made up her mind, and after rescuing Jiang Kexin's family, she left the capital with her entourage and lived a carefree life, occasionally going out to do chivalrous deeds. Thinking of this, Wang Shuqiu smiled with relief.
Yuan Chonghuan never dreamed that he would defeat the 200,000 army led by Nurhachi with only 20,000 soldiers and civilians, and make the commander die in the city, achieving the most brilliant and only big victory since the Battle of Mingjin. The whole Ningyuan City was extremely happy, as lively as the New Year.
Wang Shuqiu recuperated in Ningyuan City for three days before he had some physical strength. As soon as she regained her strength, she hurried back to Beijing, after all, there was someone in the capital to rescue. Yuan Chonghuan didn't dare to stay, she was a princess, and it was up to her to decide whether to leave or stay. A team of soldiers was sent to escort them, but Wang Shuqiu refused. Yuan Chonghuan has known that this princess has never beaten around the bush after getting along in the past few days, not to mention that she has excellent martial arts, and she can come back alive after assassinating Nurhachi. It would not have been possible without great kung fu and courage. So the princess decided.
Wang Shuqiu changed into a set of women's skirts, sat in a carriage, and was driven by Cui Wuyuan to leave Ningyuan City. Cui Wuyuan is dressed as a coachman, and at first glance, the two look like a husband and wife, unconspicuous. After the war, the sun was always shining and shining warmly. Wang Shuqiu was lying in the car looking at the blue sky and white clouds, and her mood was extremely cheerful.
The carriage traveled about ten miles, and Cui Wuyuan turned around and said, "Miss Wang, there is actually a small wool shed in front, it is better to rest." To be honest, Wang Shuqiu didn't feel tired, so she said: "It's better to walk a little more and find a better tea house to rest." Cui Wuyuan was right when he thought about it, so he drove the carriage past the small wool shed.
I saw more than a dozen people standing in the small wool shed, the former of which were two young people dressed as martial artists, and they bowed to Wang Shuqiu who was lying in the carriage and said, "Miss Wang, don't come to harm!" Wang Shuqiu heard that one of the voices was made by the masked man, Huo Ran sat up, and saw that the two juniors were a little familiar. Cui Wuyuan smiled and said, "Could it be Brother Ma, Brother Mo?" The two men said in unison, "Exactly!" ”
Wang Shuqiu finally remembered that one of these two was named Ma Cheng and the other was Mo Tingzhi, who were the master's friends. She got out of the car and couldn't help but arch her hand: "Two, the little woman is really disrespectful!" Ma Cheng grinned and said, "It's our brother Tang Wumei!" Mo Tingzhi said: "If Miss Wang and Brother Cui are willing to appreciate their faces, it is better to go to the house and sit down." Wang Shuqiu said: "It's better to be respectful than to obey!" ”
And the people came to the village and sat down with the guests. Wang Shuqiu said: "I haven't thanked the two for saving their lives." Mo Tingzhi hurriedly shook his hand and said, "What did Miss Wang say?" You have a cheap hand, and you have made a bad breath for thousands of my Han compatriots, and this courage is unmatched. Wang Shuqiu said: "Without your help, I can't kill Nurhachi." Ma Cheng patted the case and said: "Don't be modest, come, let's drink wine and eat meat to celebrate victory." Wang Shuqiu clapped her hands and said: "It's a coincidence that I haven't drunk for a few days, and I happened to be drunk today!" Ma Cheng shouted: "Someone! The best wine, the most fragrant meat for Lao Tzu! ”
Wang Shuqiu made a bowl of wine first, and couldn't help but applaud the case. Ma Chengdao: "Miss Wang, good drinking." Originally, I only admired you seventy percent, but now I admire your five bodies to the ground. Wang Shuqiu said with a smile: "This is the wine made by Brother Ma!" Ma Cheng pointed and said: "Miss Wang is really a heroine in the wine, this is a fifty-year-old wine, if it is not for Miss Wang, we will never entertain you." Cui Wuyuan said with a smile: "It seems that it is the light of the girl Wang, okay, I'm sorry for the wine if I don't drink it." The crowd laughed.
Wang Shuqiu drank another bowl and said, "May I ask the two, I don't know how my master died and where he was buried?" I want to pay my respects to his old man. Mo Tingzhi sighed: "Master Zhizhi cares about the world and tries his best to eliminate disasters. The last assassination of Nurhachi was supposed to be successful, but unexpectedly, a master was killed, and that was the swordsman who fought you that night. This swordsman was taken by surprise and had to take care of us both before he died at the hands of the swordsman. Later, my two brothers went to find the bones of Master Zhi, but they couldn't. ”
"After an inquiry, Master Zhizhi was crushed by the golden dog after his sacrifice. The two of us were furious and kept looking for an opportunity to get revenge. But it is too dangerous to go deep into the Jin country, so we have to wait for the opportunity, and we believe that the Jin soldiers will definitely go south. Sure enough, on this day, the unexpectedly assassinated Nurhachi's last wish was fulfilled by Master Zhi's apprentice, and he also avenged Master Zhi's death, which was really joyful. The wise master also rested under the nine springs. ”
Wang Shuqiu left the table, knelt to the north, and said, "Master, the apprentice avenged you and fulfilled your wish for many years. The apprentice is not filial, and he can't see you for the last time, this glass of wine is a tribute to you. She poured three glasses of wine on the ground. Ma Cheng clapped his hands and said: "The wise master is really wise, and he confiscated the wrong disciple." Wang Shuqiu said: "Master has not made the wrong friends, and has been running for his wishes. Come, little girl! Ma Cheng and Mo Tingzhi raised their mouths and shouted: "Happy! Wang Shuqiu was drunk again.
After a few days in the villa, either drinking or learning martial arts, not caring about the capital, Wang Shuqiu planned to live for a few months. Ma Cheng and Mo Tingzhi knew that she had something important to do, and it was inconvenient to stay for a long time, so they sent her ten miles away. Wang Shuqiu was still sitting in the carriage, looking at the desolate scene along the way, and became sad for a while. Cui Wuyuan said: "Unless you enter the customs on this way, there is no place to rest." Wang Shuqiu said: "Don't worry, we have a carriage." Moreover, it is not too far from Shanhaiguan. ”
As soon as the carriage turned around the col, I suddenly saw several women running wildly, their clothes already in tatters, and some of their arms were exposed. When the women saw someone, they shouted "Help!" Help me! "Some simply collapsed under the wagon. Wang Shuqiu jumped out of the carriage and hurriedly asked, "What happened?" When the women saw that it was a beautiful girl, they hurriedly shouted, "Someone wants to insult us." When Wang Shuqiu heard this, she was furious, and it was unforgivable that she dared to rape a woman in broad daylight.
The women exclaimed, "Here they are!" Wang Shuqiu said: "Don't be afraid, there is me!" "Sure enough, I saw a few people running on the opposite side, actually wearing the costumes of Ming officers and soldiers. Cui Wuyuan chirped: "It turned out to be an official thief." About a dozen officers and soldiers came, the first one viciously, it seemed that he chased these women for a long time, it seems that he caught them, and these women's lives are not guaranteed.
There was an obscene man who followed the officers and soldiers at the head, and he didn't look like a soldier in an officer's uniform, and there was a mole on the corner of his mouth. When Wang Shuqiu saw it, she was shocked, and her hands trembled a little. I only heard the officer and soldier with a mole say: "Boss Meng, those girls are in front, and there is one more girl." The officer and soldier headed by Boss Meng sneered and said, "Brother Kang, it's not cheap for you!" The rest of the officers and soldiers laughed.
Wang Shuqiu's head "buzzed", her face turned pale, these people who came were the people she had always wanted to find, and it was these people who made her irreversible, fell into the abyss, suffered great humiliation, and the wound could never be healed. This is the pain of her life! Cui Wuyuan looked back, Wang Shuqiu's whole body trembled, she stood dumbfounded, her face was pale, and she didn't know why she was afraid of a few officers and soldiers.
Boss Meng and the others had already rushed over, but Cui Wuyuan stopped them and said, "Which battalion are you from, and you dare to do anything wrong." Boss Meng saw that this person was majestic and extraordinary, not like a farmer, so he said: "Who are you, dare to take care of Lao Tzu's affairs!" Cui Wuyuan said: "Everyone in the world can manage everything in the world." You can be convicted of robbing the people's daughters. The surnamed Kang was impatient, and shouted: "Where did the wild seed come from, dare to interfere with Uncle Ben, don't get out!" ”
