Chapter 30: The Rogue Enters the City
"That's right, Jiang Gongzi is right, we are not reluctant to this place, but reluctant to our 'family'. The family chatted together, drank tea, talked and laughed, there was no deceit, no intrigue, such a life, such a day is exactly the day we want. That's why there will be reluctance. ”
After hearing this, Chang Wu expressed his agreement: "That's right, we should actually be reluctant to part ways." If we were all together, it would be the same everywhere. ”
Zhao Hu: "Otherwise, then we won't be separated." Where is Jiang Gongzi going, and where will we go to settle down when the time comes, isn't it good? ”
Tao Qiqi: "What's good, Jiang Gongzi is going to Nanguan, what are we going to do?" Nanguan is a perennial war, is it possible that we will flee again if there is a war, since we want to choose this time, we must choose a suitable location to settle down. ”
Chang Wu: "If you don't go to Nanguan, then you can go to Nan'an City, or Jiangdu City, Huai'an City." There were no wars, no major droughts or any major floods. The most important thing is that there are many rich families there, and if Peach Boy goes there to open a restaurant, he will definitely make a lot of money. And there is another point, we go to Nanguan to find people, and after we find people, we will leave there, and we can go to you when the time comes. ”
After Tao Qiqi heard this, although she was very moved by Chang Wu's proposal, she did not agree directly, but said slowly: "Let's see when the time comes, send you to the place safely first, and talk about the rest later, where you go, stay where you like." ”
Of course, Tao Qiqi naturally understands the meaning of Chang Wuhua, otherwise he would not recommend these three places.
But, as she meant, just let it be.
Now there are still several days away from the south, let alone from the south pass.
At their speed, I am afraid that they will not be able to reach Nanguan in less than 20 days.
The 20-day plan will never keep up with the changes.
Seeing that Mrs. Jiang was a little reluctant, Tao Qiqi finally comforted her: "Don't think about it so much, isn't it that the south hasn't arrived yet, even if they part ways, it's not all a month later, who can say what will change in a month." Isn't it a bit of a shame to think about it now. Cherish the moment, it's rare for everyone to be so warm and harmonious together, isn't it good? ”
After speaking, Tao Qiqi was about to change the topic, but Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai, who were resting, suddenly jumped into the arms of Tao Qiqi and Fang Yu restlessly, and then didn't know what they were talking about.
"Little Black, Little White, what's wrong?" Tao Qi Niang asked suspiciously.
Fang Yu looked at Tao Qiqi, "Qiqi, what's wrong with them?" ”
Tao Qiqi looked at Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai, and her keen intuition made her feel that Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai must have sensed something bad, so they were so restless and anxious.
So he hurriedly said, "Quick, everyone go back to the room." Chang Wu, go and check whether the courtyard door is bolted. Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai should have sensed something bad. ”
As soon as they talked about bad things, they thought that another killer was coming to assassinate them, so everyone hurriedly got up.
Jiang Ye said: "Let's all go to the main house." ”
The main house is slightly larger, so everyone has a lot of space to hide in it, and they can take care of each other.
Then Tao Qi Niang and the others hid in the main house.
Chang Wu came back after inspecting the courtyard door and said, "The latch of the courtyard door is good." ”
Tao Qiqi nodded: "Okay." The four of you also go into the house, protect everyone, and for a while, no matter what happens outside, you will not be allowed to come out without my permission. ”
Zhao Song, Chang Wusi listened to Tao Qiqi's words, did not question, did not push back, and went to the main house very obediently.
Because they believe that Tao Qiqi and Jiang Ye, who are guarding outside, can handle it, and their task is only to protect the three women in the house, and not to hold Tao Qiqi and Jiang Ye back.
The group hid in the room, and they didn't dare to light the kerosene lamp in the dark.
Fang Yu protected Tao Qi Niang and Mrs. Jiang on the left and right, and Zhao Song and Zhao Hu stood behind them, and the door was guarded by Chang Wu Chang Ning.
Because I don't know the specific situation, everyone's hearts are tense.
The little black and white in the arms of Tao Qi Niang and Mrs. Jiang also trembled.
After about a cup of tea, Tao Qiqi finally sensed the dangerous aura, and then whispered to Jiang Ye: "Listen to the movement, it shouldn't be a killer, but it looks like a rogue has entered the city." ”
Jiang Ye, who was also aware of it, suddenly fell silent.
Tao Qiqi looked at Jiang Ye, who didn't speak, knowing what he was thinking, so he said again: "Now is not the time to think about those things, now what we have to do is to protect those family members in the house." As for the common people of Guanzhou, there is a prefect, so there is no need for us to worry. ”
"What I'm most afraid of is that the prefect pretends to be asleep? If it weren't for that, wouldn't the rogues be able to enter the city at this time! ”
Tao Qiqi didn't know how to answer, so he had to answer in a whisper: "Let's take a look at the situation first." If the prefect pretends to be asleep and can't wake up, he will be buried on the spot. However, looking at the situation outside the city gate today, this prefect should not be a person pretending to be asleep. It may be that there is an internal response in the city. Are there any night walkers? Go and put it on. ”
After speaking, Tao Qiqi didn't wait for Jiang Ye to speak, she went back to the main house, and then went back to her room after explaining a few words to everyone, and after a while, she also changed into night clothes and walked out of the room.
After that, he jumped on the roof with Jiang Ye very tacitly, and then disappeared on the roof.
At this time, the gate of the city was as expected by Tao Qiqi, and sure enough, there was an internal response in the city, and half of the city gate was opened, and the rogues were swaggering in from outside the city.
Tao Qiqi on the roof whispered to Jiang Ye: "It seems that the target of these rogues is the fat sheep in the city, and they don't have much impact on the victims outside. And obviously, the prefect should have known that there was a problem, and waited for all these rogues to come in. ”
After listening to Tao Qiqi's words, Jiang Ye looked left and right at the ambush set up by the government, and did not speak, but continued to stare quietly at everything in front of him.
At the gate of the city, Nei Ying saw the leader of the rogue come in and ran over.
"Boss Qiu, the city has already made arrangements, you can just go in and collect it, and don't forget our brother's share when the time comes."
Boss Qiu on horseback patted Nei Ying's shoulder and nodded with satisfaction: "Don't worry, after the matter is completed, your share is indispensable." ”
After speaking, Boss Qiu raised his hand and signaled the people behind him to speed up and enter the city.
After all the rogues had entered, the gates slowly closed.
Then, Boss Qiu began to direct the people below to act separately.
After the account was cleared, the people below went to the street where they had been allotted.
And Boss Qiu was guarding the city gate to meet everyone, waiting for everyone to return with a full load.
Tao Qiqi on the roof looked at Jiang Ye and asked, "Do you want to act, or wait for the government to deal with it yourself?" ”
Jiang Ye replied: "The inside will be handed over to the government, and we will stare at this Boss Qiu." They can't handle it and we'll do it again. ”
Tao Qiqi nodded: "Capture the thief and capture the king first, see what else this Qiu boss has to do." ”
At the gate of the city, after Boss Qiu assigned all the tasks, he got off the horse, and then pulled Nei Ying to the side.
Although their voices were as controlled as possible, Tao Qiqi still heard their conversation keenly.
"How? Where are those people now? ”
