Chapter 222: When people say something to be feared, no one will wait for you

Looking at the soldiers who came to reply, Su Nanjin shook the newly put on soap-colored robes and sat down with a solemn expression, "How is the situation?"

The soldier who entered the door lowered his head, but his back was straight, "I am applying to join the army. My subordinates have checked it. In the past two days, the Protectorate has not signed out a transfer to Chang'an. Kudi also I have never asked to see the Protector."

A hint of joy suddenly appeared on Su Nanjin's face, and she quickly calmed down and nodded slowly, "That's very good, and it saves you the trouble of chasing after me. It's just that you have to pay more attention to the Protector's Mansion these days. The transfer offices in Chang'an are not allowed to be issued by Xizhou officials!"

The soldier asked, "Where is Quduhu..."

Su Nanjin thought for a while and said decisively, "We still have to keep an eye on the Duhu Mansion and the Qu family. If they don't go to Chang'an to go to prison, and without official help, then the Kudi family can't make trouble." Come!"

　　The soldier responded "Yes" and withdrew expressionlessly. Su Nanjin looked at the backs of the soldiers and slowly let out a breath. Her waist was slightly slumped while she was sitting upright, but her eyes were getting darker and darker - it was all that **** Pei Xingjian! Since the last incident, the attitude of these soldiers towards me has been somewhat different, and my father even saw me scolding him again and again. This time, Manager Wang took a fancy to his good relationship with the Qu family and sent him this errand. If he didn't do it beautifully and trampled Pei Xingjian into the mud, he would have lived in vain for the past thirty years! Fortunately, things went very smoothly this time. They met Qu Yulang outside Xizhou City. The Qu family and his son were obviously very knowledgeable...

Just when he was lost in thought, a voice came from outside the door, "Prince Qu, please see me." Su Nanjin stood up with a smile on her face, "Please come quickly!"

But when he stood outside the door and saw Qu Chongyu striding over, the smile couldn't help but freeze on his face - Qu Chongyu's face was particularly gloomy, and his eyes were always silent and smiling. Cold as ice.

Su Nanjin moved Qu Chongyu into the room, frowned and said, "Yulang, what are you doing?"

Qu Chongyu's tone was also cold to the bone, "Qu just came out of Pei Shouyue's home!"

Su Nanjin paused and said hurriedly, "Have you ever caught the Tat Du spy?"

Qu Chongyu laughed out loud, turned around and looked at Su Nanjin, his face full of sarcasm, "Tad Du Agent? Ziyu, you've had a hard time hiding Qu! Just now I arrived at Pei's house, and Tan Du Agent didn't see me , I only saw Mi Dalang, a businessman from Xizhou who was selling cheap stuff. He was injured and only had one breath left, but he was still shouting that Tadu was massacred and everyone was dead. Those people would come later! Xizhou, we must kill him and silence him so that everyone will not know about their evil deeds of killing people, looting goods, and robbing gold and silver!”

Su Nanjin's expression suddenly changed, and she said sternly, "Why doesn't Yulang bring him here immediately?"

Qu Chongyu sneered and said, "Bring it here? You said it lightly. When something like this happened, Kudi not only invited doctors, but also called several goddesses. Pei's house was already crowded with people, all coming to see Mi Dalangzhong. Evil. This Mi Dalang was originally a tyrant in Xizhou, and he had always done many evil things, so everyone applauded him, saying that he was a good person among evil people. I would like to say that this person is a loyal spy, but there are so many people outside the hospital who don't. Do you know Mi Dalang? I said he was a spy from Tadu City, which is more than a thousand miles away, but I am so shameless that it makes people laugh! Besides, what happened to Tadu City? Is it possible that the city was slaughtered? Didn’t you say a word to me?”

Su Nanjin's face changed a few times, but when she met Shangqu Chongyu's cold and angry gaze, she was still a little short of breath and her voice was lowered, "It turns out that we killed some people, but who taught them to resist stubbornly?"

Qu Chongyu gritted his teeth and nodded, "It was indeed a massacre of the city, so it would be right to rob the gold and silver. I should have expected that a dying man would lie! Fortunately, I saw that the situation was not good and did not take action!"

Su Nanjin was a little confused, but after thinking about it for a moment, her face became darker, "What do you mean by the prince's words? Could it be that you believed the nonsense of a bully, and instead doubted the manager and me? The commander's military order, you also Don’t want to obey?”

Qu Chongyu snorted and said calmly, "It's not that I don't believe in Ziyu. If you had even the slightest bit of faith in me, you wouldn't have hid the massacre from me! I listened carefully. Although the madman screamed loudly, he didn't mention it. Now he is in Pei's house in Qushuifang. If Su Canjun is willing, he can lead his troops to capture this Tadu spy at any time, so that everyone in Xizhou can understand that this person is not possessed by evil spirits. It turns out that the Tang army really massacred Hengdu City because of their greed for money, and the chief manager really wants to arrest him and silence him!"

Su Nanjin's face suddenly became uglier. Qu Chongyu glanced at him, paused for a moment, and softened his tone, "Ziyu, I am different from you. The Qu family has lived in Xizhou for generations. People are said to be fearful, so I just want to help." You can't ignore the Qu family's reputation and do such a thing in public. How will the people of Xizhou think of me? How will the people of the tribe think of me? Please forgive Chongyu for not intervening in this matter. "He said goodbye! He cupped his hands, turned around and walked out.

Su Nanjin stood up and wanted to shout "Stay", but finally sat down slumped. She thought about Qu Chongyu's words from beginning to end, and couldn't help but grind her teeth secretly - that Hu man was actually a very famous businessman in Xizhou, and now he was in full view of everyone. Then he shouted out the matter. If he led troops to arrest any Tatuk spies again, just as Qu Chongyu said, he would be true to his words, and even such fatal things as looting gold and silver would be spread widely. But if he doesn't catch him, will he be allowed to continue shouting like this?

Thinking of her father's razor-sharp gaze before leaving the camp this time, Su Nanjin couldn't help but shudder. She gritted her teeth and thought about it for a long time, and finally said in a loud voice, "Here comes someone!"

　　…………

Within half an hour, seven or eight well-known goddesses in Xizhou had all visited Pei's house. The west room in the outer courtyard was bustling with activity. There were people drawing charms and chanting incantations, but there were also people who came in just to watch. He glanced at Mi Dalang, said "What a great spirit", turned around and left. As Liuli stared at him, she couldn't help but be secretly shocked. Was this person fainting from blood, or did he really see something?

As these goddesses came and went, the outside of Pei's house in Qushuifang became crowded. Mi Dalang's "nonsense" became increasingly widespread. Most people were gloating about the misfortune, and some people began to murmur - this Mi Dalang is a bold and sinister person, and this evil is a bit weird! The bones outside Kucha City are still vivid in my mind. Could it be that Tatuk City has really turned into a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood?

Hearing the little maid report the rumors in a low voice, Liuli nodded and raised her voice slightly, "Doctor Han, now that all the grandmothers have tried it, could you please see if Mi Da is getting better?" Han Si remained silent. He walked to the couch loudly, took a pulse, and shook his head, "Mi Da is getting worse and worse. Madam, please make plans early!"

The goddesses suddenly became quiet, looking at Mi Dalang's deathly expression, feeling guilty for a moment. Someone hurriedly said, "Ms. Kudi, you must never let a stranger die at home, especially someone with a vicious nature. I’m just afraid that in the future…”

Liuli's face suddenly changed, "What should we do?"

The goddess hurriedly said, "Although this Mi Da is alone, he still has a family and a house. Just send him back to his home."

Liuli had a hesitant look on his face, "There is no one in the Mi family. Since he seeks help from Chang Shi, even though I can't save him, it's not good..."

 The goddess sighed, "My wife has a bodhisattva heart, but she can't defile the house just to save people!"

Liuli was still hesitating, but Han Si said numbly, "I will guard Mi Da. If I can, I will save him. If I can't, I will give him a ride!"

Liuli breathed a sigh of relief, smiled and bowed, "Thank you so much, Dr. Han."

Han Si returned the gift with an expressionless face, but held the strap of the medicine bag tightly in his hand, barely able to draw out the water from the strap.

Liuli turned around and told Xiaotan, "Send these ladies out first, and give each of them a piece of silk. Then go outside the door and ask a few strong people to come in and help move the rice."

Seeing that there was no one else in the room, Ayan hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but said, "Madam, I have something unclear. Please think about it again. Prince Qu has a weird temperament, and he has always been unkind to you and Alang. Now you Give him all those things? What if he..."

Liuli looked at her and laughed, then thought for a while and said, "Counting the days, the queen is afraid that she will give birth to a dragon child in these days. I made a small cloak with a wishful pattern here. Although it is a bit crude, The meaning is auspicious, and there are a few gadgets for Mrs. Dai Guo and Mrs. Wu, but it is difficult to ask the prince's people to do these things. After these two days, I will send Agudu to Chang'an. "

Ayan's eyes widened in surprise, "Then why do you have to go through so much trouble to beg the heir apparent?"

Liuli sighed, "Agu doesn't have an official status. How can he change horses at the inn all the way to Chang'an like Qu Chongyu sent Xizhou flying cavalry and run day and night without hesitation? They can arrive within ten days at the earliest. It will take more than half a month for Agu to reach the capital. Now, since Manager Wang has sent people to Xizhou to get people... it will only take a day!"

A-Yan suddenly nodded, "Madam, you have indeed thought carefully. Don't worry, Madam, it's just a villain causing trouble. A-lang is a lucky man!"

Liuli smiled bitterly and remained silent. Pei Xingjian will be fine, and Su Dingfang will be fine too, but this doesn't mean that she can sit back and wait at home. Not to mention that some things require her own efforts to achieve results. Even if that wasn't the case, how could she sit back and watch him being killed? Others frame and slander you, but you do nothing? She didn't know what his current situation was... Thinking of what Qu Chongyu said, "I heard that Chang Shi has been detained," she felt as if a small fire was burning in her heart.

Mi Dalang had already calmed down. He took a few breaths and asked for a glass of water. He was complaining feebly, "Why is lying down and shouting more tiring than riding a horse?" He heard the sounds of footsteps approaching outside. , and shouted out of breath with his eyes closed, "They killed people, Tadu was massacred! They robbed all the gold and silver! Chang Shi, help me, I am not a Tadu spy, don't let them kill people and silence them!" Don't let them kill people and silence them!" His pale face was stained with some talisman ashes and cinnabar, and his voice was hoarse, making him look even more terrifying.

The five or six men who came in were all bold and meddlesome people, and they were startled when they saw him. After they moved Mi Dalang onto the chair and carried him out, the Xizhou people surrounding the outside were in an uproar. It became quiet, and Mi Dalang's hoarse and shrill voice could be heard far away.

I slowly walked out of Qushui Fang with my chair, and headed all the way to Luoshui Fang where Mi Dalang lived, with more and more people following me. Several of Mi Dalang's men were not in Xizhou at this time. There was only one old servant in the house who was the gatekeeper. He had already received the news and opened the door. When he saw Mi Dalang's appearance, he started crying. There was genuine emotion in his old voice. Terror and sadness. There was a commotion inside and outside the hospital, and someone from behind the crowd shouted loudly, "Get out of the way! Get out of the way! Don't block the officials from handling the case!"

Thank you all for your pink votes. I will add more with 15 votes left. I will try to finish the first step and then take a two-day break during the New Year. Jiang Zi, everyone is at ease and asked in a low voice: OK?
