Chapter 262: Together
The second and third bandits glanced at each other, and the eldest brother didn't seem to have lied, so they really went on a treasure hunt?
Bandit 2, bandit 3, and bandit 4, who reacted slowly for half a beat, suddenly felt heartache, that's a lot of money!
"You guys, come over here!" As they spoke, a guard from the Xie Mansion over there called out to them.
The captain of the guard, Wei Lin, did not go with Boss Sha and them, but stayed behind with another guard, it seems that this captain of the guard is very loyal to Xie Kun, even in front of great benefits, he still takes completing the things Xie Kun explained as the first priority.
"Second brother, shall we go over?" The bandit asked the bandit.
If the eldest brother is not there, he can only ask the second brother, although the third brother thinks that the second brother is only a little better than the fourth brother, and he is not reliable yet, but after all, he is his second brother, and he has to give some face.
"If I can't say it, do you think it's okay?" Bandit Er asked tentatively.
The third bandit and the fourth bandit shook their heads in unison, "Definitely not, Captain Wei is looking at this side, there are more people over there than us, the eldest brother is not here, and we can't beat others." ”
"That's it!" Bandit Er said helplessly.
"Girl!" Jinbao was a little excited.
Geng Xingshuang's eyes are also shining, and she can be with Zhu Yan in the past, although the situation is not better than before, but at this moment her mood is much brighter.
"You two, go there, you three, come here." As soon as he got closer, Wei Lin commanded.
Without waiting for Geng Xingshuang and Jinbao to react, two people came up from the black scorpion village over there, pushing Geng Xingshuang and Jinbao towards the location of Zhu Yan, Zhu Ni and Zhang Kexin.
"What are you doing, you don't need to push, we will go by ourselves!" Jinbao glared fiercely at the two people from the Black Scorpion Village, one of whom was the Black Hammer.
Black Hammer laughed twice, "You little lady, your temper is spicy enough, but I like ...... Hammer."
Before he finished speaking, Black Hammer suddenly stiffened, and saw Wei Lin looking at him with frost in his eyes.
Black Hammer hurriedly stopped his mouth, thinking of what the second master said before leaving, "After we leave, in order to ensure the completion of the task assigned by Governor Xie, Wei Lin will definitely take strict care, you just obediently obey his orders, don't forget, he is a member of the Governor's Mansion, and the current Governor's Mansion is in his hands...... Even if our stockade has grown a lot in recent years, if it is against the Governor's Palace, it will be an egg hitting a stone. ”
The black hammer stopped, and the remaining bandits in the black scorpion village naturally obeyed the order.
In the end, the guards of the Governor's Palace, the two bandits, the three bandits, the four bandits, and the black scorpion village stopped Zhu Yan, Zhu Ni, Zhang Kexin, and the five people who joined later, Geng Xingshuang and Jinbao, and the five people opposite them were the remaining five people in Yaomu.
Obviously, Wei Lin did this because he was worried that before Boss Sha and the others came back, these Yaomu people would snatch people and leave.
He is going to complete the task assigned by his master, but if in addition to this task, plus the treasures left by the world's best master sword, then after he goes back, he will not only have merit, but also great merit.
At the moment when Jinbao spoke, Zhu Yan suddenly turned around, and the moment she saw Geng Xingshuang and Jinbao clearly, she was shocked and worried, and staggered towards this side.
"Sister Shuang, you ...... How do you ......"
Geng Xingshuang was originally pushed by the black hammer, so he simply took advantage of the thrust, pulled Jinbao and trotted up, and greeted him.
She held Zhu Yan's hand and said, "It was Geng Xingbing who did it, she used the power of the palace to call me into the Ping Palace, and then I was sent to them by the Ping Palace." ”
Geng Xingshuang tapped the bandits with his chin.
"King Ping?" Zhu Yan frowned, she only knew one Governor Xie along the way.
Geng Xingshuang nodded, "Sister Yan, didn't you want to buy toys for your little nephew that day?" Could it be that they are robbing people in the streets? ”
Geng Xingshuang felt that it was unlikely, after all, the mutiny took place at night, and Ningdu City during the day that day was the same, but it was the same as any previous day, it was prosperous and peaceful, whether it was the guards of Xie Mansion or the people of the Black Scorpion Village, they did not dare to go to the street to rob people, and Zhu Yan also had guards around him.
Zhu Yan glanced at Zhu Ni, and a sarcastic smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, "We are really difficult sisters and sisters, not only were we robbed almost at the same time, but also ...... is still deceived and framed by the sisters in the family. ”
Geng Xingshuang also looked at Zhu Ni, Zhu Ni's face was flickering in the flickering firelight, flickering and dimming, Geng Xingshuang couldn't see her expression clearly, but she understood in her heart that Zhu Ni at this moment, because she had already collapsed when she learned that her ending might not be as good as Zhu Yan, and she did not hesitate to add another fire.
"Sister Yan, you're wrong, Geng Xingbing can't be considered my cousin, she is the daughter of the Tao family, and she is not your cousin, Zhu Yu is. In fact, it stands to reason that she is my cousin, but she doesn't look down on our uncle, so she doesn't have to feel uncomfortable. ”
Zhu Yan thought for a moment and said with a smile: "You're right. ”
Hearing that the two of them were talking about the careful thoughts of their daughter's family, Wei Lin sneered in his heart, sure enough, she was just a little girl in the boudoir, when was it, and she was still fighting for some verbal benefits, tsk!
Seeing that Wei Lin turned around and no longer paid attention to them all the time, Geng Xingshuang breathed a sigh of relief, and Zhu Yan's expression relaxed a little.
The night wind was blowing, but no whistling was heard.
"If I hadn't seen you, I would have thought that the voice I just heard was because I was too desperate, so I had auditory hallucinations."
Zhu Yan and Geng Xingshuang leaned on a camel, snuggled together, and whispered about their experiences after being robbed, while Jinbao always paid attention to the surrounding situation.
Although Zhu Ni wanted to come forward several times, she was stopped by Jinbao, if it was put before, Zhu Ni would definitely go to Wei Lin and wait for the guards of Xie Mansion, but now it is different from the past, Wei Lin treats her now, not to mention being as respectful as before, even Zhu Yan is not as good as a hostage.
Zhu Ni could see from Wei Lin's expression just now that if she was making trouble now, in order to get through this period of time safely, Wei Lin couldn't say that he could be ruthless, and he would directly kill her with a knife, but it was not impossible.
It was precisely because she thought of this worst possibility that Zhu Ni realized very clearly that now the biggest protection for her and Zhang Kexin was Zhu Yan.
Who is to blame for this situation now?
Blame herself? But it doesn't seem to be all his fault.
If she hadn't taken this step and stayed in the Dingguo Mansion, she might have lost her life long ago.
King Shen rebelled, as King Shen's grandfather's Dingguo Mansion, is King Shen's backing and helper, once King Shen is defeated, the first to bear the brunt is the palace concubine Niangniang and Dingguo Mansion.
King Shen should have been defeated by now...... Let's do it!
Zhu Ni's heart suddenly suddenly, for some reason, this answer, which should have been extremely certain, suddenly made her less sure at this moment, what if King Shen succeeded?
Although King Ping learned of King Shen's plans in advance and made a lot of preparations, the emperor is not incompetent, even if King Ping does not interfere with it, King Shen may not be able to succeed.
But what if?
There have always been many examples of winning with more victories and fewer surprise soldiers, Shen Wang Ren is like his title, he is a cautious and stable person, coupled with the full support of the Dingguo Mansion, especially her father-in-law, she has been in love for a few years, and finally tried her best to marry his man, but also a person who combines talent and wisdom, so, will they definitely fail?
The more Zhu Ni thought about it, the more she felt that she had been too arbitrary before, she was heartbroken by Wu Qiyu's cold treatment, and regarded King Ping as the straw to take revenge on the Wu family and redeem herself, so she believed him and put herself in such a situation.
"Zhu Ni, are you not feeling well?" Zhang Kexin looked at Zhu Ni in a daze at the fire, his expression was uncertain, and asked casually.
Zhu Ni came back to his senses and looked at Zhang Kexin, "Kexin, do you think King Shen will have succeeded?" ”
Zhang Kexin was stunned for a moment, and after reacting to Zhu Ni's meaning, her eyebrows were raised, the corners of her mouth were slightly hooked, revealing a sarcastic smile, "Do you regret it?" If you still stay in the Wu family, maybe you will follow Wu Shisun to fly Huang Tengda now, tsk, I advise you to wake up your mind, even if King Shen becomes the emperor and Wu Shisun has the merit of following the dragon, the first thing he has to do is definitely to divorce you, the original partner who does not meet his wishes, and marry the bright lady who has been hiding in his heart. ”
When talking about the eldest lady, Zhang Kexin glanced at Zhu Yan, this glance was bright, even if Zhu Ni wanted to pretend not to see it.
Just didn't wait for her to react, Zhang Kexin immediately said comfortingly: "It sounds very worrying and painful, but these emotions are superfluous, because it's hard to say whether Wu Dagongzi is still alive now, even if he is not executed immediately, I am afraid that he will be imprisoned now, and at the lightest is exile, hey, there are many exiled felons in Cangcheng, in this way, if you can survive, maybe there will be a day when you will reunite with Wu Shisun, Ah Ni, are you looking forward to this day?"
Zhang Kexin smiled at Zhu Ni, her tone was rarely gentle, but her appearance made Zhu Ni feel even more uneasy, she couldn't help but move back, away from her, shook her head and said: "Kexin, I know you're afraid, but the most important thing right now is that we have to find a way to save ourselves, instead of saying something weird about yin and yang, what good will it do you to stab me if you say these words."
Zhang Kexin saw that Zhu Ni was still serious, and lay back a little bored, looking at the few stars dotted under the dark sky, and suddenly lost interest in talking.
Seeing her like that, Zhu Ni looked at Geng Xingshuang and Zhu Yan who were snuggled together not far away, her eyes moved, she moved a few steps forward, sat next to Zhang Kexin, leaned close to her ear, and said a few words in a low voice.
Zhang Kexin listened, and glanced at Zhu Ni with slanted eyes, "Tsk, you are worse than me." ”
"Do you want to do that?"
"Yes, but how do I get them to listen to me."
"Their most important hostage is my cousin, and the others are just incidental, and those soldiers who come to Yaomu will not let go of the benefits of being sent to the door."
"If it's incidental, then why did you send someone to bring it?" Zhang Ke couldn't figure it out.
"Because she obstructed the eyes of the one in the Ping Palace, who is now the noble master of the palace." Zhu Ni said.
"It turned out that he was angry with the crown!"
On this side, Geng Xingshuang was also talking to Zhu Yan about the journey along the way, as well as guessing the reason why they were arrested, and by the way, he was looking forward to the early arrival of reinforcements.
"Since Governor Xie is King Ping's person, and King Shen's troops are hiding in Greentown, with Xie Kun's ability, I am afraid that he has already noticed it, after getting the news of King Shen's rebellion, he did not send troops to encircle and suppress, but let those soldiers go south to join King Shen, saying that horse thieves are rampant, and for the people of the two cities in the west, they can't send troops and so on, it's just an excuse, and those horse thieves are afraid that they have also become his Governor Xie's subordinates, so what does he want to do?"
Zhu Yan frowned and said, Geng Xingshuang had already thought of this, and she said, "I'm also a little worried, will Brother Yang encounter a three-way siege in Jade Jue Mountain."
If it really reaches such a situation, even if Yang Tianmo is strategic, resourceful and decisive, I am afraid it will be difficult to break the situation.
It's just that now she can't protect herself, even if she worries, it's useless.
What Geng Xingshuang and Zhu Yan didn't know was that what they were worried about was happening right now, but the situation was not as bad as they had guessed.
In the early morning of winter, the dead branches and leaves make a rustling sound in the cold wind, under the reflection of the moonlight that is not too bright, like a ghost, if one person or only a few people walk in this winter night mountain road, it will definitely feel a chill on the back and hair stand up.
It's just that now there are not one person or a few, but tens of thousands.
"If there is an ambush in the mountains on both sides, we can only rush forward, if we are a little unlucky, then Xie Kun is a little bolder, and we will be made dumplings!"
Fang Yiming sighed.
They're here now, and they've sent three teams of scouts to find out.
At the beginning, Fang Yiming, Yan Lei and other generals, the worst plan in their hearts was that King Shen led the remnants of the army to contact the soldiers who went south in Greentown, and even met in advance, and also learned that their 10,000 people were rushing to Yujue Mountain.
But the day before, Yang Tianmo received a message from Linghu, the messenger was his fiancée, at first they only thought that the young fiancée was too slimy, and even shook their heads and sighed in their hearts, how long has it been, where is the need for this, such as Lu Dahe, Zhang Ao and other young generals who have signed a contract with Yang Tianmo, have already prepared teasing and ridiculing rhetoric in their hearts, just waiting for him to read the letter, you will make a joke about this Wenchen Tanhualang and the military general Yang Shenjiang.
Unexpectedly, after Yang Tianmo opened the letter, he took a cursory look at it, and his complexion changed greatly.
None of them expected that Yang Tianmo's fiancée, the sixth girl of Anping Bofu in Ningdu City, would be abducted to Mo County.
The people behind it are King Ping and Xie Kun.
What are they going to do, like King Shen, to rebel?
Perhaps what they did was much worse than that of King Shen, because they had reached some kind of tacit agreement with Yaomu.
This incident has dealt a big blow to Fang Yiming and other generals.
However, Yang Tianmo didn't seem surprised by the attitude of Xie Kun, the governor of the Western Lands, he was just anxiously worried about the safety of his fiancée, and quickly thought of the fastest way to save people, and sent a letter through the spirit bird named Luxi.
Just when the other generals were still worried about Xie Kun's possible backstabbing of them, and didn't know how to decide now, Yang Tianmo told them that he had sent three teams of scouts out, one of which was in the direction of the west.
However, even if Yang Tianmo said this, Fang Yiming and the others still couldn't feel at ease, after all, they didn't know much about the Western Land, if Xie Kun made a move, which way he would go, and how he would march, they couldn't predict it in advance.
