Chapter 73 Chongshan Design Baixian Ling Lao Bustard was arrested
The next morning, Zuo Tianming and Xing Hao invited the old bustard of Baixian Ling and Xianque Pavilion to Duwei Mansion respectively. After Bai Xianling greeted Lord Liu, he said excitedly: "Lord Liu came to visit Hecheng, why didn't he tell the lower officials, and the lower officials made some preparations early." β
Lord Liu was sitting in the main seat of the living room, Yin Xuesong and Xiao Lie on both sides were only standing, they didn't sit down to show Bai Yu and the old bustard the majesty of Lord Liu, Lord Liu said unhurriedly: "I was also invited to come, Yin Xuesong and Xiao Lie knew that I had nothing to do recently, so they sent someone to send me a letter and asked me to come to your Hecheng to relax." Just in time for me to get bored and panicked lately, I came over. I only arrived last night, so I didn't alarm you. β
"What Lord Liu said really makes the villain embarrassed, you can summon me anytime and anywhere, I can afford the word 'alarm'!
Yin Xuesong took over the conversation on the side and said: "I found her, and it is inconvenient for the people of our Duwei Mansion to enter and leave the Xianque Pavilion, so she came to pick up Miss Yinglian back." He pointed back at Xing Hao: "You take her to pick up Miss Yinglian, the backyard is not easy to walk, you have to pay more attention." β
Yin Xuesong's words were actually a reminder to Xing Hao, asking him to take the old bustard to the prison of Duwei Mansion in the backyard, and what Bai Yu was thinking about was that there were many female dependents in the backyard, and he was afraid that this person named Xing Hao would go to the wrong room and see Yin Xuesong's secrets, thinking of this, a knowing smile appeared on Bai Yu's face.
Zuo Tianming walked in from outside the door and said to Lord Liu: "My lord, the carriage and horses have been prepared, we can set off." β
Bai Yu asked curiously, "I don't know where the adults are going?"
Yin Xuesong said: "We plan to take Lord Liu to Chongshan to take a look around, see where the scenery is, the scenery of Chongshan is still very good this season, how can Lord Liu miss such a beautiful scenery when he comes! Although your brother-in-law is a squire of the military department, this Lord Liu in the imperial history is not something that anyone can see if they want to, so you must take advantage of this opportunity. β
Bai Yu thanked him for his kindness: "Lord Yin, you are really thoughtful, and thank you Lord Liu for being willing to let me accompany you, this is a blessing that I can't cultivate in ten lifetimes." β
The carriage was prepared for Lord Liu, Yin Xuesong, Xiao Lie, and Bai Bao rode horses, and hundreds of foot soldiers drove to Chongshan.
The soldiers had already been ambushed in the backyard of Duwei Mansion, and as soon as Xing Hao and the old bustard stepped into the courtyard, the soldiers tied up the old bustard. The frightened old bustard screamed: "My lord, what are you doing, what did I do, villain, why did you treat me like this." β
Xing Hao said with a smile: "If you have committed something, you must think about it yourself, and Lord Liu will personally interrogate you when the time comes." Don't be afraid, this matter has nothing to do with you directly, and you are not much of a sin, at most, you cut off your tongue and sent to Ningxia to do hard labor. β
The old bustard was frightened and hurriedly knelt down, his old tears were rampant, and he kowtowed like pounding garlic: "Master Xing, you have to call the shots for me, there is nothing for me here, I just manage the Xianque Pavilion for him, and I have never done anything unreasonable, and he will never tell me anything every time he does anything, and I don't know what he has done." β
As soon as Xing Hao heard it, he knew that this old bustard must know a lot of the inside story, this is not much, she is about to confess, as long as she asks her brothers to work harder, she will definitely be able to say anything, and pulled the old bustard up with a smile: "How do you know what I want to ask? Haven't I asked anything, what are you nervous about, relax." I also told you just now, as long as the situation you explain is valuable, I will intercede for you in front of Lord Yin, so that he can give you a light sentence. Then he said to the soldiers: "You find her a clean room, and I will take care of some official business, and then I will go over, remember, but don't scare her, if you can't remember anything to be scared, I can ask you." β
The soldiers understood and took the old bustard away. According to Xing Hao's instructions, she was given a prison close to the thatched house, which was extremely dirty, full of maggots, rats and ants. The frightened old bustard only screamed, and it didn't make a sound that a human should make, similar to killing a pig. The old bustard's heart was completely shattered, and he held on to the cage and shouted: "I said, I will say everything, I will tell you everything I know, you let me out, I will die inside." β
A prison officer came over and froze the cage with a whip: "What are you calling, when the master comes, you tell him that we can't call the shots for you here, so you better save your energy." β
Lord Liu and his entourage came to the heavy mountain, the mountain can not walk the carriage, Lord Liu had to get down and walk, enjoy the scenery all the way, talk and laugh, when he reached the middle of the mountainside, he suddenly heard the sound of a pound gong, hula turned out a hundred or so people, these people are all women, led by three female generals, a female general in the middle looks about thirty years old, a yellow brocade shirt, a yellow brocade skirt below, a dark red ribbon around the waist, jade hairpin is inserted on the head, the long hair falls and sways with the breeze, and the wheat-colored skin sets off a rich temperamentγ A female general on the left has a face like a peony moisturizing dew, and her waist is like a willow breeze in March, like a beauty in the sky, which is better than the fairy in the cold moon. Dressed in a red robe, a red cloak, a pair of red cloud shoes, a bright red auspicious cloud wipe the forehead, and the sleeping lion gold silk red belt shows off the graceful figure. A female general on the right is wearing a white gauze gown, with a slender figure, dragged by the caftan to look more graceful, with a red ribbon gently holding the long hair fluttering behind, the skin is white and snowy, smooth and delicate like a baby. His demeanor is serious, his cheeks are flushed, his complexion is beautiful, and his bearing is elegant. Although they were all riding horses, they could also see that they were all more beautiful than the fairies in the painting.
When the soldiers saw that there were so many female soldiers with complete armor and blades, they threw down the weapons in their hands one by one and turned around and ran, stunned by Bai Bao. Seeing that the officers and soldiers had run away, the female general in the middle laughed: "How powerful are the officers and soldiers I was here, I didn't even do anything, I just ran away, what a bunch of wretched." He turned around and summoned his soldiers: "Come on, tie up the four of them for me, escort them back to the cottage, look at their dress, the official position should be not small, and they will definitely be able to exchange a lot of silver." β
The soldiers came over to wipe their shoulders and put their backs together, tied them up in a strong knot, and pushed them towards the cottage.
The female generals who robbed the road were actually pretended to be Jiang Xiaoyu, Fang Chou and Qiu Feixu. This is Xiao Lie's strategy, to coax Bai Bao to Chongshan, and let Jiang Xiaoyu tie up a few of them, and press them back to the cottage to interrogate Bai Yu.
After a group of female soldiers pressed them to the lobby, they made several people kneel down, Jiang Xiaoyu and the other two were in the middle, Jiang Xiaoyu scolded: "It's really a bunch of waste snacks, I can't figure out how you are going to be officials." The Ming Dynasty has just opened the country, is there no capable person? I am amused to see the embarrassment of your officers and soldiers, tell me how you train in normal times?"
Fang Chou said with a smile: "How else can they train, they must eat, drink, prostitute and gamble every day, and loot the people, isn't it always the case that officials have always been like this." β
Jiang Xiaoyu nodded and said: "That's right, these stinky men don't have any good things, and after we get the ransom, we will kill them." β
Qiu Feixu, who was on the side, poked his head to Jiang Xiaoyu's side, and seemed to be speaking in a low voice, but the voice he used was indeed very clear to everyone: "Sister, there are too many people we kidnapped today, you see that they don't shout or scream, it's completely different from the people they usually catch." Let's kill him first, and let this group of people dispel the small calculations in their hearts, lest they have a trace of illusion and will not cooperate honestly. β
"Sister, according to your meaning, who are you going to kill first?" Jiang Xiaoyu asked.
Qiu Feixu pointed with his hand: "Of course it's to kill this small official, we have to keep it and ask for more money, this is a cash cow, how can we kill it so easily." β
After Bai Yu entered the door, he didn't even dare to raise his head, and when he heard that it was the official who was going to be killed, he peed his pants in fright, raised his head and was asking for mercy, when he saw that the person Qiu Feixu pointed at was not him, but Lord Liu, he immediately let go of his heart and lowered his head again. Xiao Lie on the side shouted loudly: "Stinky girl, if you want to kill me, kill me, I am the youngest here, do you know who you tied up." Say it to scare you, you have tied up the imperial history of the dynasty, I advise you to release us now, otherwise, the court will definitely send troops to level you here, you have to think clearly. β
Jiang Xiaoyu laughed: "Don't bluff me, how can Cheng in the imperial history be such an old man, at this age, it must be a small county order, it's okay if you don't say it, I originally planned to kill no one, but when you say this, it can be regarded as ruining his life." Come on, throw this old man into the oil pot outside, fry him alive, and satisfy the hungry tigers in captivity on the mountain. β
The five people directly lifted Lord Liu up, and a boiling oil pot had already been set up outside the door, and it was steaming hot. Walking to the pot, several girls threw Master Liu into the oil pot with a wave of their hands, and the screams only lasted for a short time before stopping.
When Xiao Lie looked back, he was stunned, and several people stood there in a daze with a face that resembled Lord Liu's appearance and figure, Xiao Lie panicked in his heart, thinking that they wouldn't really blow up Lord Liu, right? Thinking of this, a cold sweat broke out, and he was very anxious, jumping and shouting: "You guys, you really blew him up?"
