At the end of yesterday, after Huang Zunsu settled down in the imperial history, he listened to the situation of Qin Jianxiao's return to the carriage and horse shop, but he was still not sure, so he wanted to go and see it again.

Qin Jianxiao looked worried about the safety of Shangguan and dissuaded: "Master, when I went to the humble position, I saw that a group of Shandong businessmen had just bought sheep from the sixteenth shop and slaughtered them. The sixteen-shop wharf has been very vicious recently, and the lord still doesn't go to the carriage and horse shop. ”

When Huang Zunsu heard this, his eyes lit up: "Where did you say you bought the sheep?" The 16th Shop Wharf was closed this morning, and the boats that rowed to sell goods in the countryside were all berthed elsewhere, where is there still a livestock market? ”

Qin Jianxiao's face, which had always been too expressive, stiffened and showed a stunned look.

Huang Zunsu's mind was quick, and he had already thought of the danger in a moment, and asked Qin Jian Xiao sharply: "You saw the killing of sheep with your own eyes?" See blood? ”

"No, no, the lowly position is to smell blood."

Huang Zunsu's head buzzed, and he immediately ordered more than a dozen errands, and hurried to the riverside carriage and horse shop.

Among the several corpses found in the search store shortly, there was no Zheng Haizhu.

Huang Zunsu snatched the torch from the officer's hand and leaned over to observe the footprints on the ground.

He saw the familiar bamboo ornaments.

It was his wife Yao's favorite small object to sew on clothes, Huang Zunsu once thought it was chic and interesting, and once asked a mouth, and learned that it was from the tailoring workshop jointly opened by Han and Zheng.

Then, the withered pieces in front of you must be the marks that Miss Zheng tore off.

Following the messy footprints, Huang Zunsu led people to find seven or eight bamboo ornaments one after another, until they reached the riverside.

Qin Jianxiao, who knew that he was very derelict in his duties, was full of thoughts on how to make up for his mistakes along the way.

He quickly found two sand boats, asked Huang Zunsu, and went upstream and downstream to find people respectively.

Huang Zunsu knew that Zheng Haizhu's suspicion was related to the Liao people of Chongming, so he judged that the waterway of the gangsters was more likely to go north to Taicang, so he personally led the team to sail upstream.

At this moment, Huang Zunsu, who had searched for most of the night and several reeds and did not let go of the exploration, finally saw that Zheng Haizhu was still alive.

Not only was he alive, but he also jumped into the river like a rabbit to avoid being held hostage by the two gangsters on the boat.

As soon as Huang Zunsu's order to save people came out, the two tolerances almost entered the water.

But Blacksmith Du was closer to Zheng Haizhu.

While another member of the Tong family released a high-pitched chirp into the night sky to warn his master, Blacksmith Du aimed the crossbow at the fluttering figure in the water.

Zheng Haizhu, whose hands were tied, no matter how skilled she was in the water, could not quickly hide and hide at the bottom of the river.

With a "poof", the iron crossbow arrow was nailed into Zheng Haizhu's shoulder.

The force of the impact, like a sinister hand, pushed her face into the water, struggling to breathe.

】

The pain was secondary, and the filthy river water that quickly poured into her mouth and nose quickly put her in a near-death suffocation.

Seeing that Blacksmith Du was about to wind it again, Huang Zunsu still cared about catching the live mouth, and shouted angrily to "release the arrow".

Among the tolerances that followed, there was Liu Zhutou.

Liu Zhutou had received a lot of favors from Zheng Haizhu in the past, but at this time, he was born with evil courage, and his shot was faster than the archers on the left and right, and with a throw of his arm, the iron spear flew away, crossed the water, and pierced straight into the chest of Blacksmith Du.

Blacksmith Du was stabbed back sharply and slammed into the canopy.

Rao suffered such a fatal blow, and the most courageous family member under Tong Xiyu still did not immediately lose his strong combat effectiveness.

He screamed in Jurchen to another housekeeper, urging him to flee with the reel of the firearm on his back.

According to the words, Ding jumped on the river bank and went straight to the dense forest of Sheshan.

The two tolerances have lifted Zheng Haizhu from the water at this time.

Her body's instinctive self-help response helped her violently cough up and choke on the sewage in her trachea and lungs.

When he was able to make a sound, Zheng Haizhu relied on the last bit of sobriety and hurriedly said: "Chase, firearm map, Tartar stole firearm map!" ”

……

When Tong Xiyu heard the Ming Di, he suddenly felt a little dazed.

"Lao Li, is this a bird call or what?"

She asked Li Desheng, the eldest of her family and her favorite concubine.

"Master, yes, Lao Du them!" Li Desheng struggled to support his tortured body, panting but affirming, "We, we can't go back to the boat!" Lao Du's side, I'm afraid it's not good. ”

Tong Xiyu was extremely depressed, her feet were weak, and she collapsed in the grass.

Li Desheng hurriedly stepped forward to help her up: "Master, you can't rest, the government is afraid that the mountain will be searched, let's hurry up to the other end of Taicang, General Tong, General Tong is waiting for us." ”

General Tong is Tong Yangzheng.

Don't be full of loyalty, the Tong family is full of traitors.

Since Fushun escaped from the Guanwai, the patriarch Tong Yangxing was named a third-class deputy general by Nurhachi, and Tong Yangzheng also got a Han military position, and the minions of the Tong family called the two masters generals.

When Tong Xiyu heard her brother's name, she seemed to have another breath of yang energy.

"Yes, my brother, and my eldest nephew, as well as Master Yue!" She suddenly smiled sadly, "Chongming's play may not be a failure." Let's go, let's go quickly, find my brother's boat. ”

Tong Xiyu has lived in Songjiang for three months, and has secretly traveled back and forth to the Susong Sea several times, and is no stranger to the direction.

The altitude of Sheshan is not high, Tong Xiyu and Jiading, after distinguishing the morning light in the east, go north, Rao is physical strength is damaged, and finally settle in Taicang.

A few people casually searched for tenant farmers, exchanged copper plates for coarse grains to eat, and continued to grope for the road, and finally found the hidden seaside that was connected with Tong Yang at dusk.

The moment he saw his own sea boat, the exhausted Tong Xiyu's eyes darkened and he fell into the arms of his family.

She suddenly heard the sound of conversation buzzing in her ears, Li Desheng was reporting the truth to Tong Yangzheng, and Tong Yangzheng was saying things like "Joining the machine" and "Yue entrusting the master".

……

Aya held the small bean bag and leaned against the corner of the house.

Like all toddlers snuggled in their mother's arms, Little Bean Bun slept soundly.

And Aya, the mother, didn't dare to close her eyes for two nights.

Whether her daughter is awake or sleeping, Aya will never let her daughter leave her arm.

Occasionally, she would listen intently to the movements of Boss Huang, who was indignant at the Jurchens, and heard the other party snoring or humming an ugly tune.

The acne rash on Ahsan's face began to glow.

At first, Aya thought it was more pus oozing out, but when she leaned over to take a closer look, she found that Ashan was sweating fiercely, and the flush of high fever had faded a lot.

Tong Fengnian, who was dressed in the disguise of Boss Huang, stepped into the house, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and walked to the couch.

"You concubine, Lord Yama doesn't seem to be ready to accept it," Tong Fengnian hugged his arms, slammed Ashan Nunu's mouth, and said to Aya, "Then dare to be kind, Lord Yama doesn't want it, the yamen can interrogate him, see if he is a spy, look at what you are, Zheng Jiazhuang, there are a few spies." ”

Aya ignored this greasy and obscene businessman, and while hugging the small bean bag, she was worried in her heart that Mrs. Zheng didn't know what happened in Songjiang.

Tong Fengnian walked into the courtyard and unceremoniously picked up the rice cake on the slate and nibbled on it.

Wu Bangde asked two sturdy sailors from Xu Yilong, and arranged them near the courtyard to take care of Aya's mother and daughter. The rice cakes were brought to the door by sailors yesterday and thrown in by the guards of the Anjiyuan.

While eating, Tong Fengnian said to Aya half-truthfully: "Little widow, how else to say that you women are stupid, there are obviously people in your Zhuangzi who come, and you don't know that they will smuggle the baby back, so you have to let the baby follow you to suffer here." ”

When Aya heard this, her heart moved.
