Great Zhou Empire Chapter 43 The Siege of Taoqiu
"That is to say, if you go out of the city, the bandits will come to take revenge, and if you wait in the city..."Jiang Mo paused, moved his gaze to the golden flute, and continued: "You will meet Tian Dan, who is also the chief guard of the two counties of Yanzhou."
Jin Di pretended to be indifferent, and said coldly: "You always have to go together, you are His Royal Highness the Prince of the World, don't venture forward, I will leave for the time being..."
"Then you don't have to, pretend to be my maid, and he won't kill you... If I don't ask for the reward of the title, I will find that the salt mill near the sea has left him and made refined salt... Hehe, the hatred for me is deeper..."Jiang Mo was talking to himself, his mind was still thinking about a way to break the game, but he didn't find that Jin Di had left the wing....
.............
Jin Di led the horse out of the county yamen, and no one stopped him, and the entire Taoqiu City also wandered around with Jiang Mo and his party, because Liu Ping firmly believed that in this world, no one should be able to cross the city wall of Taoqiu, which was several zhang high.
At this time, Taoqiu was gloomy, occasionally dropping a few drops of light rain, this weather was like a golden flute mood, looking at some pedestrians holding up bamboo umbrellas, she was wandering around, feeling extremely lonely and helpless.
Jin Di tried to restrain some of the depressed negativity, and rushed to the bustling street market, to see the clothing stores that he hadn't visited for many years, to play with roadside toys or accessories, and to taste some street snacks and desserts. It seems that she really feels free, no longer a maid in the royal palace, and no longer a spy assassin under the Tian family.
Stop-and-go, playing and shopping, she had left Taoqiu Yamen for two hours unconsciously, and she heard the shouts of Jiang Mo and others looking for her in the middle, and she hurriedly dodged. She didn't even know why she was hiding, whether she was afraid of Tian Dan or hated Tian Dan, if she hated, she should be killed, but Tian Dan had also taken care of her for a few years, and Jin Di was extremely chaotic...
Taoqiu's already small east and west markets were all visited by the golden flute, and she also tried to walk to the edge of the city wall, with her kung fu, she couldn't even cross half the city wall, several city gates were closed, and the entire Taoqiu was indeed blocked.
However, at the south gate, there is a long queue, and when I inquire, the city gate here is opened for an hour in the morning and evening, but everyone who enters and exits needs to have identity credentials and the approval of the county lord.
While observing the people and many guards, Jin Di thought about how to get out of the city, but was suddenly enveloped by a question: Where can I go? Am I not going for revenge?
Thinking of this, Jiang Mo's smiling appearance unconsciously appeared in his mind, and he even swore that I would help you find out who was behind Jiang Qi's murder of your whole family, and my life would be given to you at any time...
Jin Di shook his head desperately, trying to get rid of the son of the enemy who remembered killing his parents.
"Girl, girl?" I only felt someone gently pat Jin Di's shoulder.
"Huh?" Jin Di suddenly looked up, and there were two middle-aged couples standing in front of him, wearing coarse cloth clothes that didn't fit well, and their skin was a little dark, but they were all clean and tidy.
The old woman smiled and still had a wrinkle, "Girl, the eldest lady saw you standing at the city gate with a sad face for a long time?" ”
Jin Di was still a little vigilant, but shook his head coldly, "It's okay~"
"Did you quarrel with your husband? Do you want to lead the horse and get ready to go back to your mother's house? The old woman asked gossipingly.
The farmer on the side also stopped "Oh, don't meddle~"
The peasant woman patted the peasant woman, "Leave me alone, no one has any children."
Jin Di's cheeks were slightly red when he heard this, but he still had a cold expression, on the one hand, the assassin had been doing it for too long, and on the other hand, he rarely talked to strangers and outsiders, and instinctively avoided it, turning around and leaving.
The old woman kept saying, "Hey, girl, if you really want to get out of the city gate, the eldest lady can help you..."
The farmer interrupted again: "Oh, everyone is leaving..."
Jin Di's eyes lit up when he heard it, although he thought that there was nowhere to go out of the world, but as soon as he heard that he could go out, his mind instantly had a plan: ask the Ji family who fled Da Zhou, and meet in Luoyang in the future to see how he finds out the mastermind behind the scenes~
"Girl? What do you think? The old woman was stunned when she saw the golden flute, and shouted a few more times.
Jin Di also turned around and showed a gentle smile, "Auntie, do you really have a way to let me go out too?" ”
The old woman looked a little worried and said, "However, this time the city gate is all opened by Shenshi, a girl's family, or or..."
Jin Di quickly shook his hand and answered: "It's okay, auntie, I really can't stay here, my mother's house is only twenty miles away, and the fast horse will arrive in less than an hour."
"In this way, the eldest mother also has a daughter who is as old as you, and she is not married yet, and she was going to come to the city to help sell vegetables and tofu together, but there is a delay, we have applied for a threesome, and you follow us to pretend to be a daughter, you can let it go..."
Jin Di didn't know how to answer, so he could only nod and respond.
"I think the girl is also quite young, married so early, it is inevitable that she will quarrel with a man, in fact, husband and wife are fighting at the end of the bed and, I heard that someone was looking for you before, it must be your father-in-law, right?"
Jin Di's face blushed at first, but soon dimmed, clenched his fists with some disgust, gritted his teeth and said, "It's not!" ”
"It's okay, it's okay, let's go back to my parents' house first..."
Under the chatter of the peasant woman, time flies quickly, and the city gate is open....
As the sun sets, Taoqiu drinks and eats meat in the cottage hundreds of miles away, and it is the famous thief who sits in the main seat, but his eyes are looking at the long road ahead~
The thief smiled slightly, and spat lightly, "It's coming"
Du Zhong, who was drinking, also got up and looked into the distance, but saw nothing clearly.
But after a while, Chen Ran led his men in black and a brother who was carrying arrows to lead a team of dozens of people to the city to investigate and return.
As soon as Chen Ran and the back arrow brothers entered the hall, they picked up the wine and drank a few sips, and then picked up the roasted chicken thigh meat and gnawed it, starving a few people on a trip.
Only the man in black reported very respectfully: "The younger brother's people are still in the city, and they haven't been able to come out for the time being, and the prince of Qi doesn't seem to have any plans to go out of the city and march to Luoyang... The gates of Taoqiu are too high, and it is not easy to send assassins to assassinate them..."
Du Zhong took a few steps forward and also interjected: "I also know that the city wall was built by Guan Duwei of Nadong County, and I am afraid that only one person in the world can cross it..."
Chen Ran glanced at Du Zhong and the thief, as if he wanted to know who that person was.
The thief fiddles with his wine glass, and seems to be having a problem...
Chen Ran rolled his eyes and asked the thief: "The big boss, have you ever thought of capturing this city and becoming a prince?" ”
