Chapter 232: No Way Out
Ah San and Nangong Manman were sitting in the carriage, and as soon as they arrived at the door of the Ma family's courtyard, they saw a person waiting for them.
"Third brother, Ma Shaoqun seems to be waiting for us, I don't know what is going on with him?" Nangong Manman first saw that person turned out to be Ma Shaoqun, the hussar general, and Nangong Manman continued: "Looking at his anxious look, he must have been waiting here for a long time." ”
"How can you see that?" Ah San said, "There are so many things in his military camp that he needs to take care of, where does he have this spare time to wait for us here?"
"You see he's been going around seven or eight times at the gate of the courtyard, and if nothing else, he's a reliable man. Nangong Manman said: "Maybe he really needs to discuss something important with you." ”
"Third brother, you are finally here. The hussar general Ma Shaoqun saw Ah San and Nangong Manman walking out of the carriage, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "I have been waiting for you at the gate of this courtyard for a long time. ”
"General Ma, what do you want you to come to me in person?" Ah San put his hands behind his back and slowly walked towards the hussar general Ma Shaoqun and said, "Could it be that something major has happened?"
"Let's hurry back to the house. The hussar general Ma Shaoqun said as he walked towards the courtyard.
Ah San and Nangong Manman looked at each other and smiled, and then walked into the courtyard with the hussar general Ma Shaoqun.
As soon as he sat down in the room in the courtyard, the hussar general Ma Shaoqun said: "Third brother, now the matter is imminent, I heard that the mysterious organization is already studying how to mobilize its men and horses to march at the fastest speed, how much potential can burst out, and I heard that their organization is already studying the clear division of labor who is the vanguard and who is the reinforcement, and they have this kind of behavior It means that they may have made a plan to prepare for the mutiny, we must now know their exact time, so we can face them one by one!" ”
"What do you think now? You name it, and we'll talk about it. Ah San heard the words of the hussar general Ma Shaoqun, and also felt that this matter had reached the time to be resolved, Ah San continued: "You General Ma must have some idea of looking for me, otherwise, you wouldn't be so anxious to find me, right?"
"Yes, I really deserve to be a good brother, you know everything about what I think in my heart!" said the hussar general Ma Shaoqun: "I'm just here to hear what happened to your plan?"
"Do you want to know if that Wen Changshan has reached an agreement with me?" Ah Sanshuang looked at the hussar general Ma Shaoqun, who was a little anxious, and said: "We can't be in a hurry about this matter, our only way is to wait." ”
"Wait, how long will it take? We can't wait any longer!" Ma Shaoqun, the hussar general, stood up from his chair and said, "If that mysterious organization launches a mutiny without our knowledge, who can predict what the consequences will be?"
"I also know that our time is very tight, but if we push too hard, will it be the opposite? That Wen Changshan will not help us wholeheartedly?" A San Shaoxia said worriedly: "I'm actually very anxious, I also want to turn this Wen Changshan against as soon as possible and let him work for us, but now we have to wait, is there anything else?"
In the room of the other courtyard, there was the footsteps of the hussar general Ma Shaoqun going back and forth in the room, and after a while, the hussar general Ma Shaoqun stopped his steps, looked at Ah San Shaoxia with his eyes and said: "Third brother, I have a way, I can make him have no way out, there is no way back, I don't know if you will agree when I say it?"
"You say, I'll listen!" Ah San sat on the chair and looked at the hussar general Ma Shaoqun, who was spinning around like ants on a hot pot, and said, "If it's really a good way, we have to hurry up and implement it!"
"Wen Changshan committed a capital crime in Hutang Town, right?" Ma Shaoqun, the hussar general, stared at him tightly and asked, "If it weren't for the extra kindness, he would definitely die, right?"
"Yes, the crime he committed is indeed a capital crime!" Ah San said with no expression on his face: "This is his own fault." ”
"If you let him know that he has done something outrageous and heinous to others, and instead of blaming him, others are willing to forgive him, and have fallen in love with him, how do you think he will react?" said the hussar general Ma Shaoqun as he gestured with his hands, and continued: "Moreover, we will give him a kind of hope for life, do you think he will do things for us with hard work?"
"You mean to let that Hu Lingzhi go to find this Wen Changshan?" Ah San stood up from the chair and said, "Have you ever thought that this Hu Lingzhi already hates this Wen Changshan to the core, how could she go and say to a person who has hurt her that she has forgiven him and fallen in love with him?"
"That's why I came to you, it's a problem for you to face. The hussar general Ma Shaoqun said: "At the beginning, you asked me to work with you for the people of the world, and now this is our most critical moment, you can't leave these things to me, because you know that I don't have the ability to do this." ”
"Okay, I'll try it, I can't guarantee whether it will succeed or not!" Ah San Shaoxia touched his head with his hand and said very embarrassed: "How can I open my mouth for this kind of thing!"
"You have to do it, you have to do it, you have to do it if you can't do it!" Ma Shaoqun, the hussar general, looked at Ah San Shaoxia with his eyes like mist and said: "Sometimes, if we want to achieve great things, someone must sacrifice themselves for these big things. Ma Shaoqun, the hussar general, looked at Ah San, who had been touching his head with his hand, and then said: "If you sacrifice one Hu Lingzhi, you can save the lives of one million, ten million, or even more people, which one do you choose?"
"This ...... This one...... Let me think again. Ah San Shaoxia helplessly looked at Nangong Manman, who had been standing next to him silently and silently, and then said to the hussar general Ma Shaoqun: "If you want me to succeed in this matter, you must also accompany me, okay?"
"Okay, as long as this matter can have a result as soon as possible, I am willing to accompany you in everything. When the hussar general Ma Shaoqun heard Ah San Shaoxia say this, he agreed to Ah San Shaoxia very heartily, and he continued: "Because I don't want more people to die wrongfully for this matter!"
"Okay, we'll just say it!" Ah San patted the hussar general Ma Shaoqun on the shoulder with his hand and said, "Now let's arrange this matter!"
Hu Xu Yong, the seventh generation of Hu Ji blacksmith shop, is now sitting alone in the hall of his house, sullen, his wife has been crying and crying in the past two days, his heart is very uncomfortable, thinking that he is a big man, he has not protected his family, he really feels that he has lost face.
Her flowery daughter Hu Lingzhi seemed to be relatively strong, she saw that her mother didn't eat or drink for her own things, but she persuaded her mother not to collapse her body for her own business.
For the persuasion of her very sensible daughter, the wife of Hu Xuyong, the seventh generation of Hu Ji Blacksmith Shop, cried even more, thinking about her sensible daughter now, thinking about the future of her sensible daughter, she couldn't help but cry like rain.
"Mother, my daughter has caused you trouble, you don't eat or drink like this, if your body collapses, how can you be a daughter with peace of mind?" Hu Lingzhi took out her usual sweat towel from her arms after speaking, and helped her mother wipe the tears on her face, she actually wants to cry now, but she knows that she really can't cry now.
Because Hu Lingzhi knows that if he cries dizzily, what will happen to his father and mother? What if something happens to them who is too sad about their own affairs?
Hu Lingzhi, the daughter of Hu Xuyong, the seventh generation of Hu Ji blacksmith shop, has been a little girl with a strong personality since she was a child, she is not like an ordinary little girl who will only cry when she encounters things, she is far from being as strong as she shows now, when no one is around, she also quietly shed tears, but when she saw her mother and relatives wash her face with tears every day for what happened to her, she secretly made up her mind in her heart that she must not cry in front of her father and mother, she must be strong.
Looking at his ostensibly strong daughter Hu Lingzhi, Hu Xuyong, the seventh generation of Hu Ji Blacksmith Shop, blamed himself even more in his heart, as a father, he didn't protect his daughter, he had a clear conscience.
Just as Hu Xuyong, the seventh-generation descendant of Hu Ji Blacksmith Shop, was thinking about it, someone suddenly shouted: "'Zhongyi Gong' Ma has arrived!"
The Ma family is at the helm of the people and horses, and it is thunderous in the entire Hutang Town, no one knows, no one knows.
Usually this Ma family is at the helm of the horse, and it is difficult for you to see him, but today what wind blew him to the house of Hu Xuyong, the seventh generation of Hu Ji Blacksmith Shop.
Hu Xu Yong, the seventh-generation heir of Hu Ji Blacksmith Shop, heard that the helmsman of the Ma family was coming to Tengkong, and hurriedly stood up and walked outside the door, wanting to greet this "loyal and righteous father" Ma Tengkong, who knew that he had just stood up and had not yet walked out of the door of his house.
"Brother Hu, Ma Tengkong's late night visit has disturbed Brother Hu's rest!" Ma Tengkong, the helmsman of the Ma family, saw Hu Xuyong, the seventh generation of Hu Ji Blacksmith Shop, and immediately stepped forward to reach out and hold the hands of Hu Xu Yong, the seventh generation of Hu Ji Blacksmith Shop, and then said: "Tengkong should have come to Brother Hu's house a long time ago, recently it has been delayed because of too many things, look at Hu Brother Haihan Haihan!"
When did Hu Xuyong, the seventh-generation heir of the Hu Ji blacksmith shop, see the helmsman of the Ma family, Tengkong and who were affectionately called brothers, he suddenly felt that this thing seemed to be in a dream, and hurriedly pinched his thigh with his hand, it hurt, so he was not in a dream now, but in reality.
"I ...... I....... Hu Xuyong, the seventh-generation descendant of Hu Ji Blacksmith Shop, was so nervous that he couldn't speak all of a sudden.
"Brother Hu, don't be nervous, if there is anything, just look for you, Brother Ma and me!" Ma Tengkong, the helmsman of the Ma family, gently patted Hu Xuyong, the seventh generation of Hu Ji Blacksmith Shop, on the shoulder with his hand and said, "If there is something, let's sit down and talk, okay?"
"Good, good, good!" Hu Xuyong, the seventh-generation heir of Hu Ji Blacksmith Shop, said three "good" words excitedly, and hurriedly took the hand of the Ma family's helmsman, and sat on the main seat of the hall of his own house.
Hu Lingzhi and her mother-in-law, who were originally in the inner hall, heard the sound of talking outside, and they all felt strange, who came to their house in the middle of the night? So Hu Lingzhi and her mother-in-law walked out of the inner hall, and Hu Lingzhi's mother-in-law saw at a glance that the helmsman of the Ma family sitting on the main seat in the hall of their house was vacating, and she was stunned all of a sudden, she did not know how this rich and rival Ma family helmsman Tengkong would come to their Hu family in the middle of the night.
"Concubine Mei Xue has seen Master Ma!" Mei Xue, the wife of Hu Xuyong, the seventh generation of Hu Ji Blacksmith Shop, bent her knees slightly and said to Ma Tengkong, the helmsman of the Ma family: "I don't know why Master Ma came to visit late at night?"
"This seems to be my brother Hu's daughter-in-law?" Ma Tengkong, the helmsman of the Ma family, said with a smile to Hu Xuyong, the seventh generation of Hu Ji blacksmith shop: "Brother Hu, we have been in Hutang Town for decades, and I only heard that the Hu shopkeeper of Hu Ji blacksmith shop married a wife who is like a flower and jade, and it turns out that this is true!"
"This is a cheap man, Brother Ma!" Hu Xuyong, the seventh-generation heir of Hu Ji Blacksmith Shop, hurriedly introduced Ma Tengkong, the helmsman of the Ma family, and said: "Brother has nothing else, just found a good daughter-in-law." ”
"That must be my niece!" Ma Tengkong, the helmsman of the Ma family, pointed to Hu Lingzhi, who was following Mei Xue, and said, "Yes, it's the same as her mother, beautiful!"
"You...... You...... When did you call Brother Ma of the Ma family?" Mei Xue looked at Hu Xuyong, the seventh generation descendant of her Xianggong Hu Ji Blacksmith Shop, and said, "Are you dizzy, what is the identity of Master Ma? Can you afford to climb high?"
"Hey, my brother and daughter-in-law said these words, Xu Yong and I have been in Hutang Town for decades, and we are fascinated by each other, Ma Tengkong has long wanted to come to make friends with Brother Hu, but I have never had the opportunity, and I happened to be free tonight, so I came to visit!" Ma Tengkong, the helmsman of the Ma family, said: "There should be no time to make friends, right?"
"That's that!" Mei Xue said with pain: "I'm afraid that our Hu family can't climb Master Ma!"
"Brother and daughter-in-law, you are saying what you said there. Ma Tengkong, the helmsman of the Ma family, said with a smile: "Hu Xu Yong, this old brother, my Ma Tengkong admitted!"
"Master Ma, thank you for looking at the concubine's beard, but why did your Master Ma come to visit the office in the middle of the night?" Mei Xue stared at this "loyal and righteous father" Ma family's helmsman and said: "The concubine likes to speak straight. ”
Ma Tengkong, the helmsman of the Ma family, smiled and said, "My brother and daughter-in-law are still smart and clever, I guessed that I must have something to do!"
So what happened to the Ma family, who was at the helm of the Ma family, and came to the Hu family?
