Chapter 267 The Northwest Needs a Hero Like You
Seeing Mrs. Wang coming back, Zhou Ruijia hurried into Rongxi Hall and reported to Mrs. Wang.
"Madam, you are right. Those two yamen runners really did not return to Shuntian Prefecture."
"It was a bit late when we got there, and the person had already been carried away."
"I relied on my good relationships and asked a few more people at the Lai family's door, followed the direction they pointed, and chased out."
Having said this, Zhou Ruijia paused, as if thinking.
"As soon as we left our East Street alley, we changed carriages, and our people behind us also got a car and chased after the carriage."
"at last……"
At this point, Zhou Ruijia felt a little bit unbelievable and she frowned.
Mrs. Wang was already very busy today and was in a state of restlessness.
"Where did the carriage go?"
"Say it!"
Zhou Ruijia hurriedly continued, "Madam, this is what's strange."
"The carriage has left the city."
"I thought that even if they didn't go to the government office, they would have to find a place to treat their injuries, right?"
"How can you go out of the city to treat your injuries?"
Mrs. Wang paused with her Buddhist beads in her hand. "Did you personally watch the stretcher being loaded onto the carriage?"
"How can you be sure that those are the people in the carriage?"
Hearing that she was being suspected, Zhou Ruijia hurriedly explained, "Madam, I have been following you."
"When they walk, I walk. When they change cars, I change cars."
"The clothes those two bailiffs were wearing were so obvious. I couldn't have made a mistake, right?"
"If I hadn't been following them, I would have come back to report the news long ago."
"How can we delay till dark?"
Mrs. Wang clapped her hands together and kept beating the Buddhist beads.
What a fool! I'm afraid you only recognize the clothes and not the person.
With such serious injuries, it is impossible to leave the city, and you will be shaken to death.
Did you save those two bastards just to kill them?
"Zhou Ruijia, don't rest, check all the clinics you pass by."
"Although it's a little late, but it's better to try to make up for the loss!"
Zhou Ruijia looked at the sky outside and said, "Madam, it's too late. Curfew will be coming soon."
Madam Wang glared at her and said, "Take my pair of cards and take a few people out."
"Just checking the infirmary. It won't take long."
Mrs. Wang wanted to scold Zhou Ruijia for her hesitation, but as she still needed someone, she held back.
As a last resort, Zhou Ruijia took Mrs. Wang's pair of cards and went out again without stopping.
Seeing Zhou Rui's wife go out, Mrs. Wang stroked her brows and heard the good voice of Jia Lian's new concubine coming from the air.
Either she was teaching this girl a lesson, or she was arguing with that old woman. It was really annoying.
This Feng girl has gone to her mother's house and is not coming back. How can she accomplish anything with such a narrow mind? I made a mistake at that time.
Everyone thought she was manly and capable of managing the household, but she ended up making such a mess of the inner chamber.
Apart from Ping'er, there was only one concubine and maid, so Feng girl fled back to her parents' home in disarray.
It seems that he is a confused person and is really useless.
You don't even have a son, so haven't you lost the ground in vain?
Does he want to interfere in his nephew's inner house?
I wonder what Mrs. Xing's intention was in giving this thing to Jia Lian.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Wang shouted,
"Jin Chuan'er, go to Master Lian's courtyard and tell them that I don't want to hear any more yelling and cursing here."
"No matter who it is or why, they will all be sold."
Jin Chuan'er received the order and went to Jia Lian's courtyard to pass on the message.
After a while, there was no sound.
Mrs. Wang breathed a sigh of relief, and the other maids saw that there was finally no one around Mrs. Wang.
Come over and hand me a warm towel and wipe my face.
Mrs. Wang leaned back with her eyes squinted, allowing the maids to massage her legs and shoulders.
But he couldn't calm down in his heart. Recently, things have been complicated and he always felt that there was an invisible hand that was provoking the nerves of the Jia family.
Is it the so-called “human trafficker Feng Yuan”?
……
"Master Wei Jiu, why are we arresting this guy?"
"What the hell is this? It's the human trafficker Feng Yuan." Outside the city gate, two men dressed as yamen runners had already changed their clothes.
Said to Wei Jiu who was driving the carriage.
Wei Jiu climbed onto the shaft and went up to the carriage. "Pah! Pah! Pah,"
He patted the master and two servants who were still unconscious in the car.
"Wake up!"
"it's dark!"
The three unconscious people, Xue Pan, Shuangxi and Shuangshou, opened their hazy eyes.
With the reflection of the snow outside, one can make out the human figure.
As soon as he opened his eyes, Xue Pan wanted to stand up and resist.
Wei Jiu knocked him down with one punch.
"Lie down and listen. We are human traffickers. You are in luck today."
"The Northwest is in need of tough, strong heroes like you."
"When you get there, work hard. Maybe the women soldiers from the northwest can teach you how to be men."
"If you can't learn it, then I'm sorry, will the military officers there let you teach them how to be a man?"
"Hahaha……"
"If you die there, it will be considered a good deed for me."
"Ah..." When Xue Pan heard that they were going to the northwest, he was so scared that his mouth opened wide and couldn't close.
"Sir! Hero, Sir,"
"forgive me!"
"I have an old mother and a young sister. I am the only son in the family. How much money do you need? Just tell me."
"My family is rich." Xue Pan knew that he had encountered a robber.
Just give in first!
The car was buzzing with Wei Jiu's laughter, "Aren't you a hero?"
"A hero can't be such a wimp."
"Don't be afraid. With the eagle's kiss on your face, you will most likely not die there."
Xue Pan touched the eagle scratches on his face. Is this a life-saving talisman?
Wei Jiu looked at Xue Pan with a sneer and thought to himself, Boy, once we get there, it won’t be up to you anymore.
It's your fault that you were so blind that you offended the wrong person.
You can't die, but life is worse than death! The soldiers will treat you well.
Thinking of this, Wei Jiu blew a whistle, and several people dressed as refugees walked out from the darkness, took the reins of the carriage, and the carriage immediately disappeared into the night.
……
By the time the carriage was no longer visible, it was already very dark.
Wei Jiu took the two people and ran towards the city gate laughing and talking.
"Master Wei Jiu! The snow is going to get heavier and heavier, and there are more and more refugees."
Wei Jiu's face changed, "Yes! I wonder how many people have frozen to death or starved to death."
"Let's go back and see if Master has any other instructions. Dealing with that toad might have stirred up the lake even more."
"It seems that the identity of our human trafficker Feng Yuan might be used frequently."
As soon as Wei Jiu finished speaking, he heard two of his men shout in surprise, "Master Jiu, what should we do? The city gate is closed!"
"And I saw someone from the Imperial Guard added tonight."
"The number of patrols at the city gates has more than tripled."
After hearing the report from his two men, Wei Jiu put his hands on the pergola, looked forward, and then smiled slightly.
"It seems that God is helping us. We sent the people away, and they also got more manpower."
"We can't get through the city gate. The imperial guards are moving. It looks like Wang family's Prince Teng has spoken."
"If it's really for this nephew, he's really good to this nephew."
