Chapter 218: Extinguishing the Mouth
As the sun went on until noon, the feast was almost eaten, and the wine was almost drunk.
Although Jiang Ruan was not happy, he thought of going to Beizhuang to see his father and mother, so he didn't say anything, just urged Jiang Yuerong to set off quickly.
"The two elder brothers are not in a hurry, my father and mother and the second brother will be kept in the hot spring village, and they will be carefully taken care of by my mother-in-law. Now that we are going, we must prepare some thank-you gifts for my mother-in-law. You go back and rest for a while, and my husband and I will go and take care of it." Z.br>
There are still some arrangements that have not been completed, how can Jiang Yuerong set off so easily?
The boss Jiang Mingsheng is a man of the army, and if he fights back at that time, they will have to lose their troops.
"Why didn't Rong'er say earlier, my hurry to come back this time is to drive horses for thousands of miles, and I didn't bring any luggage. Now there is nothing on my body that I can take out."
Jiang Ru'an laughed twice, her expression slightly embarrassed.
"It's okay, my mother doesn't care. I have long regarded the General's Mansion as a family, and this time because of the lady's insistence, I had to prepare a gift. If it weren't for that, I don't think the family would have to be so polite."
Waving his sleeves, Zuo Qingyun pretended to be very tolerant and generous, as if he really regarded the General's Mansion as a family.
"My brother-in-law treats the General's Mansion as his own family, and we are grateful. However, the number of etiquette that should be fulfilled is still to be fulfilled, and Rong'er should indeed prepare some light gifts. You say yes, right? Big brother."
As he spoke, Jiang Ruan turned his head and patted Jiang Mingsheng and asked.
"yes, that's right."
After being stunned for a moment, Jiang Mingsheng, who was a little taciturn today, also replied.
"I am so ...... that two brothers are so gracious I can't thank you enough."
deliberately bit the last four words, and Zuo Qingyun's fox eyes revealed a cunning.
"The two brothers will go back to the room and rest for a while, and when I have prepared my things, we will set off." Jiang Yuerong said with a bright smile.
Half an hour later, a group of people slowly and leisurely set foot on the road to the hot spring Besso.
Jiang Yuerong and Zuo Qingyun sat in the carriage and walked ahead.
Jiang Mingsheng pulled Jiang Ru'an on a horse and walked behind.
It had just rained two days ago, and the roads in some places were muddy and not easy to walk.
A few horse-drawn carriages with gifts passed by, and the rut marks were more than half an inch deep.
"I don't know what kind of gift Rong'er has prepared, it's so heavy."
A hint of gloom flashed in his eyes, and Jiang Mingsheng lowered his voice and said.
"Maybe it's some gold and silver jewelry or something."
Jiang Ru'an has a big heart and has no sense of crisis at all.
"I hope I'm thinking too much."
After running thousands of miles, Jiang Mingsheng has always felt that the current general's mansion is weird, especially his sister who used to be regarded as a pearl in his palm.
At this moment, they had just left the General's Mansion on the front foot, and the General's Mansion on the back foot had already been occupied by Jiang Yuerong's people.
The original subordinates were doing their own duties, when a group of black-clothed men who suddenly rushed in held knives to their necks and pushed them into the courtyard.
When everyone arrived, a leader with a knife stood up among the masked men in black.
"I heard that the old general fought in the north and south, and collected a lot of good things. Among them is a valuable pearl of the night, and I have come for this pearl today. If anyone can tell where the beads are hidden, I will spare you. If no one can say it, then no one will be left!"
The man in black had a cold gaze, exuding a murderous aura from his hair to his toes.
"A good man spares his life, how can the people in our mansion know where the old general's Night Pearl is?"
A white-haired old housekeeper suddenly walked out tremblingly, and said helplessly.
"Hmph, if you don't say it, then you don't want to say it?!"
The leader snorted coldly, seemingly unwilling to listen to these explanations.
If you want to add sin, there is no excuse.
Originally, Jiang Yuerong wanted to find a group of killers, and she could directly kill these subordinates in the mansion.
However, Zuo Qingyun is thoughtful,
He feared that someone would escape alive and that what they had done would be revealed.
After thinking about it again, he must find a reasonable reason before he confesses to the killer, and if someone really escapes at that time, this matter will not be suspected of them.
"Hero, we really don't know. If you kill an innocent in vain, you will be damned by heaven, and you will ......."
Old thing, why do you talk so much? I'll send you to the West Heaven now, and if you have anything to say, go to the Netherworld to say!"
So saying, the chief raised his sword.
The silver knife was cold in the sun, and the old servant was even more frightened.
Just as he was raising his sword and the old servant thought he was going to die, a sharp arrow suddenly pierced the air, and with a whoosh it struck the chief's arm with the knife.
"Ahh
There was a scream, and then the leader's broadsword fell to the ground.
The men in black raised their heads one after another, and their eyes happened to meet Fu Jiulan who was standing on the roof.
Under the sun, Fu Jiulan would hold the carved bow, his eyes were like torches, and he didn't seem to have the slightest fear.
"Give me all of his grandmother's!"
Seeing that he was only one person, but so rampant, the leader couldn't help but blacken his face and let his subordinates rush forward.
Several black-clothed killers suddenly started on the spot, stayed under the beams, and suddenly got up with their strength, soared over the roof, and went straight to Fu Jiulan.
Before they could get to Fu Jiulan, there was a sudden sound in the courtyard.
With a few "knock knocks", the door of the room was slammed open, and dozens of soldiers in iron armor rushed in.
The man in black was caught off guard and immediately retreated in panic.
Seeing this, the servants who had been concentrated in the courtyard also began to panic.
Running away, running away, the yard was chaotic for a while.
By the time Fu Jiulan got rid of those killers and returned to the courtyard, the soldiers had already dealt with those killers, and even a few of them were captured alive before they had time to run.
Slowly walking up to a killer, Fu Jiulan stretched out his hand and pulled the veil off his face.
"Who sent you?"
After glancing at him, Fu Jiulan asked.
Twisting his head to the side, the man in black did not answer.
Glancing at the man in black again, Fu Jiulan continued, "Look at the tattoo on your neck, it's probably someone from the Heaven and Earth Society, right? It is said that this kind of organization of the Heaven and Earth Society is not invited by ordinary people. This time I can get you out, and the people behind it are either rich or expensive. The target is directly aimed at the General's Mansion, probably ......."
Before Fu Jiulan could finish speaking, the man in black interrupted irritably.
"Kill or chop whatever you want, don't ask those who have it or not!"
"Now you're a prisoner, so rampant. I know the laws of your Heaven and Earth Society, if you reveal the main patrons behind you, even if you are lucky enough not to die, you will be hunted down by your colleagues and hide in Tibet for the rest of your life. Now I have the ability to help you change your face, to keep you from being hunted down, and even to keep you safe for the rest of your life. If you do, you will have no worries."
Fu Jiulan seemed to understand very well what these people were afraid of, so he was able to prescribe the right medicine.
