Chapter 163 Aunt
The hall is empty and the light is dim. The statue of the Emperor Dongyue sitting upright is quiet and quiet. Two young women kneel on the brick floor in front of the statue base crying, humble and weak. The woman wearing a Qingsu silk jacket cried: "Please let me go back, let me go back, let me go back, the redemption silver will definitely be delivered-"
"I dare to cry and kill you with one knife." Peng Laoqiu said intimidatingly: "I'm a good person to serve this husband, and I guarantee that you will be enjoyable. If you don't obey, I'll sell you to the brothel's prostitute's house. Thousands of people ride ten thousand people and pick up customers day and night."
The two women cried even louder, holding each other, for fear of being separated, wearing silk and jade, with fine skin and tender flesh, and then they were just disheveled hair and had small feet dirty.
Zeng Yu felt a headache. He didn't expect that the bandit leader Wu Pingzhen would send two women to bed. These two women should be the bandits who were caught from the Hekou Wharf today to be hostages to collect the redemption silver. The bandits do everything they can to rape and plunder. If he asked Peng Laoqiu to take these two women away, he would definitely be ravaged by other bandits. But if they were asked to stay for the time being, they would really not be able to clear the situation even if they jumped into the Yellow River in the future. Liu Xiahui was still in a mess - who believed it?
Zheng Shi looked a little helpless, just look at how Zeng Yu dealt with it?
Zeng Yu asked Peng Laoqiu: "Lao Peng, where did these two women come from? I, Zeng Jiuli, are not such a casual person."
Peng Laoqiu didn't know the identities of the two women. He stomped his feet and asked fiercely: "Who are you two and who are your surnames and whose names are? To be honest,"
The two women just cried but didn't answer.
Peng Laoqiu gestured with both hands and said, "Don't dare not answer grandpa's question, I'll strip your dresses-
Zeng Yu shouted: "Peng Laoqiu"
Zeng Yu's tone was stern, and Peng Laoqiu was shocked. Then he realized that the two women had been sent to Zeng Yu's side, and that was Zeng Yu's people. How could he say anything about shamefulness by stripping his clothes, and quickly crossed his hands and laughed: "The villain is talking nonsense, don't blame Zeng Hunter."
Zeng Yu slowed down and said, "Old Peng, you guys go outside the hall first, I have something to ask you later.
Peng Laoqiu hurriedly said, "Yes, the villain is waiting for Mr. Zeng to give instructions at any time in the corridor." He waved his hand and walked out of the hall with several other bandits, thinking to himself: "It seems that Zeng Yu, the military advisor, is determined, so you must not offend him."
After Peng Laoqiu and others left the Daizong Hall, Zeng Yu sat cross-legged on the cushion. He hesitated for a while. The two women kneeling on the ground beside him felt the atmosphere was strange and their crying became less. The woman in the Qingsu silk jacket looked at the hall through the drooping gap and saw two scholars and a healthy servant, a brazier on the ground, and some wine and dishes were there...
"Are both girls native to Qianshan?"
Zeng Yu asked, and both women trembled and hugged each other tighter.
Zeng Yu whispered and comforted: "Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you. The three of us were also captured and went up the mountain in the afternoon, so we were equally unlucky."
The two women cried but still didn't answer.
Zheng Shi said: "Tell me where you are, so that you can help you return home safely."
The woman wearing a Qingsu Ling Jacket looked up at Zeng Yu and Zheng Shi again, and then said timidly: "My husband's family is from Chuanshi Village, Ehu. This is my sister-in-law of the family, with his surname Ji and Li."
This is the sister-in-law and sister-in-law. The sister-in-law named Ji buried her face on her shoulder and dared not raise it, and there were slight sobs.
Zheng Shi said: "I have heard of Chuanshi Village and is famous for making Cambodian paper."
The woman with a green silk and simple jacket said, "My husband's family is a paper merchant. Yesterday, when My sister and My little Shiva came to Kawaguchi's relative's house, they met a thief-"
Speaking of the word "thief", the young woman with green silk and plain jacket shut up and looked at Zeng Yu nervously.
Zeng Yu was keen and asked, "What's wrong? Do you think I'm a thief too?"
The young woman shook her head quickly: "No, no, how dare I do it?"
Zeng Yu and Zheng Shi looked at each other and asked the young woman again: "I am a scholar in Guangxin Mansion, my surname is Zeng. I don't know how those thieves arranged me. Madam Li talked to me, which also made me feel confident."
The young woman with green silk and plain jacket hesitated for a moment and turned to look at the hall gate. The moonlight outside the hall was covered with snow, and the air conditioning was blowing. There were bandits patrolling each other back and forth, but she stopped talking.
Zeng Yu smiled and said, "Did the thief promote that I have joined the gang?"
The young woman in Qingling Susu nodded: "Yes, she said you are their military advisor, and she said--"
"What else did you say?" Zeng Yu asked.
The young woman pursed her lips and said, "You mainly increase the redemption silver from 200 taels to 250 taels."
Zheng Shi couldn't help but angrily said, "It's a nonsense, this is a thief who framed Jiuli."
When the young woman saw Zheng Shi's anger, she hurriedly said, "It's all the thieves who said it, and I don't believe it."
Zeng Yu sighed and said, "This is to force me to have a home and it's really vicious."
At this time, the girl surnamed Ji, who had been burying her head in her sister-in-law's shoulder, raised her head and looked at Zeng Yu, and quickly lowered her head again. The girl's eyes were like stars, her face was muddy, but her eyebrows were vaguely beautiful. Look at her like that, she should have just been frightened and not been abused yet. Zeng Yu said: "Miss Li and Miss Ji are here for the first time. We will not hurt you. Just relax and you can go back if you pay the redemption tomorrow."
The sister-in-law and sister-in-law didn't say anything, and they couldn't relax when they were together late at night with strange men. But seeing these two scholars, gentle and gentle, compared with those fierce, lewd and rude bandits, they felt more at ease, but Zeng Yu asked again: "Can your family still afford the redemption?"
The young woman with Qingsu Ling's jacket whispered, "I'm afraid it's not easy to raise money. Many people over there can't afford so much money." She paused and asked carefully, "What would happen if she couldn't pay the redemption bank?"
Zheng Shi sighed and said, "You think these thieves will not receive the redemption money and let you go. There is no such a good thing." He said to Zeng Yu again: "Jiuli, you still have to try to save those hostages."
Zeng Yu nodded: "I'll go out first, be careful when you speak, don't be heard by the thieves." He got up and walked out of the hall, shouting: "Old Peng?"
Peng Laoqiu was leaning against the hall corridor and gnawing chicken legs. When he heard Zeng Yu call him and put half of the leftover chicken legs into his arms. He wiped his hand with oily hands on his butt and greeted him, "What are the instructions of Mr. Zeng?"
Zeng Yudao: "Where are those hostages locked up?"
Peng Laoqiu pointed to the right: "It's right there in Guangsi Palace."
Zeng Yudao: "Take me to have a look."
Peng Laoqiu secretly ignored it and thought to himself: "He enjoyed the two tender women in the hall, but he wanted to go to Guangsi Hall to see what hostages? Do you think the two women are not beautiful enough and have to choose them yourself?" He whispered: "Mr. Zeng, Fang Maoqi and others are guarding you."
Zeng Yu said "Yes" and asked, "Where did that old Taoist priest go? He just hit me with a vine stick, which made it very painful."
Peng Laoqiu shared the same hatred for the enemy: "That old Taoist is really hateful. It has swollen my hands and feet - is Zeng Hunter going to seek revenge on him? I heard that old Taoist scolding you before, but later he went down the mountain and said that he was going back to Longhu Mountain, and no one stopped him. At this time, it should be not far away. I will take a few people to catch him and hand him over to Zeng Hunter.
Zeng Yu said, "No need, don't be as knowledgeable as that Taoist, let's go to Guangsi Palace." It would be great that the old Taoist Tongchen had escaped.
Zeng Yu stepped down the steps, Fang Maoqi and Wang Panzi immediately stepped forward to stop him, and Fang Maoqi said coldly: "You must not leave here without permission."
Zeng Yu said: "I want to meet King Wu and have important matters to discuss."
Fang Maoqi curled his lips and said, "What important thing can you do? Those who follow Feng Shui and recommend the eight characters are all liars."
Zeng Yu was unconscious and kicked it out. Fang Maoqi hit his lower abdomen and fell backwards. His body was arched into a shrimp-shaped state, so painful that he couldn't speak.
Zeng Yu cursed: "Wang King Wu respects me a little bit, but you, a thief who doesn't know how to be alive, humiliates me several times." He stepped forward and kicked Fang Maoqi's butt, waved his hand to Peng Laoqiu: "Old Peng, go."
Fang Maoqi rolled on the snow and couldn't get up for a moment, and shouted angrily: "Kill him, kill him for me."
Wang Panzi and several other bandits had knives in their hands, but they did not dare to attack Zeng Yu. They saw Wu Ping's courtesy to Zeng Yu with their own eyes—
Zeng Yu walked outside the Yude Hall, and Wu Pingzheng came out of the hall. He heard Fang Maoqi shouting and frowned, "What is Fang Mazi's name in a ghost?"
Zeng Yu bowed and said, "I have something to do to see King Wu. Fang Maoqi stopped me from coming, and even humiliated me as a Feng Shui liar and I was kicked twice."
Wu Ping didn't care and smiled and said, "My husband was not here to enjoy the beauty. What's the point of seeing Wu?"
Zeng Yu said: "Although Yanfu is something to enjoy, my mind is more important. This is not a place to stay for a long time. When will King Wu go to Yongfeng to enter Fujian?"
Wu Ping said: "I will receive the redemption tomorrow and leave early the next morning."
Zeng Yu said: "There are so many hostages who are confused and have no one knows what their surnames are. If they don't know who has the redemption of the redemption of the redemption of the rebels, they will not know which will affect the rebels' itinerary."
Wu Ping said: "Scholar Zeng doesn't have to worry about such trivial matters. When he leaves, he chopped off all the unredeemed hostages, which would not delay our trip." He said in an understatement, treating human life as grass, and his cruelty is fully revealed.
Zeng Yu said: "The King of Wu wants to assist King Zhang Long to separatist generals and ministers from Fujian, and he must act more meticulously. Those hostages should be asked for their names one by one and register them. When their family members send silver to redeem the people tomorrow, they will not be chaotic and shout for people to find them. This also makes King of Wu good at governing the army well and the rebel army has strict discipline."
Wu Ping nodded and smiled, "Scholar Zeng is right, but Zeng Xiucai really cares about Wu everywhere."
Zeng Yu said: "King Wu has escaped from danger as soon as possible. You can return to your hometown to serve your mother. I hope King Wu will not break his promise."
