Before they left the capital, they had thought that things would be different in other provinces. People's hearts were also different during the peacetime, not to mention this extraordinary moment.
For example, the princes of Shunxing County and Qingchang County can initiate the King Qin War. Even though the late emperor passed away, it does not affect them from launching the war of King Qin in disguise. For example, Yu Cun relied on Tao Li Tianxia, but he did not get any benefits from the dragon power.
, it’s hard to say that there will be trouble.
It is not uncommon for people like Mr. Ma to think wrongly and make such assumptions about others.
If the Siping Marquis Mansion takes Qiao and wants to get a share of the credit, it is possible to let the children of the Yu family go.
The Siping Marquis Mansion and the Yu family were in the same province. A general was in charge of military power, and a poet and calligrapher was famous. They should recognize him.
It is possible to exchange songs.
Yu Xinhua didn't ask for help because Yu Xinxun was having trouble with the new emperor everyone was talking about. When he didn't understand the thoughts of the grain transport officer of the Siping Marquis Mansion, he couldn't have said in public that the master wanted to overthrow Lei Fengqi and prevent him from ascending the throne.
Mr. Ma, his thoughts are even more outrageous.
As long as the children of the Yu family don't speak, Zhu Zheng shouldn't be able to save them.
When he saw Zhu Zheng taking Yu Xinhua away, he called out to the others to take him away. Lord Ma followed. When Lei Fengqi saw this, he sheathed his sword and followed behind.
Zhu Zheng vacated a room in the courtyard and let Yu Xinhua and others in. There were no windows on the outer wall of this room, and the window opened in the courtyard.
Moreover, the exterior walls of the courtyard are made of bricks, not the wooden walls of some rooms.
After closing the door, Mr. Ma moved a long bench and sat on the left side of the door with confidence. Not to be outdone, Lei Fengjin also moved a long bench and sat on the right side of the door.
Zhu Zheng took a look and saw that the gatekeepers, Heng Ha and Er, were about to arrive and said, "You two can keep watch at night. Just don't wake us up. As long as you are happy."
He asked the night watch soldiers in the courtyard to be more alert. After all, the imperial convict was here and go back to his room to sleep.
Madam Ma and Lei Feng stared at each other with big eyes and small eyes. They were separated by a door, and Madam Ma became more and more angry as they looked at each other.
There were soldiers guarding the courtyard. Master Ma felt that he was not afraid of the sword at Lei Qi's waist, so he whispered again: "You are talking nonsense!"
"You are derelict in your duties." Lei Fengqi whispered back.
On the top of the wall, the dark senior senior crouched on it as if he were part of the darkness. He slipped back to the wall and gestured to Yu Wuluo: "There are two people guarding the yard, both with weapons. Lei is guarding the door. Just don't worry."
Lei Fengqi and Master Ma had a huge quarrel. Gao San and Yu Wuluo came out at the same time. The two of them stood behind the other woken up guests in the inn and saw the children of the Yu family being escorted to Zhu Zheng's courtyard.
Yu Wuluo secretly had something bad going on. Something bad must have happened, so Lei Cai would argue with Mr. Ma so loud that no one would hear him. Maybe this was his plan to inform him.
Can't wait for the robbery tomorrow, Yu Wuluo will meet Yu Xinhua and others tonight.
Her Yan Ling knife was sharper than the ordinary Yan Ling knife. She dug a small hole in the brick wall effortlessly. The position was low. Yu Wuluo squatted down and lowered his head to the hole. He said softly: "A dog is not as good as Zhuangzi. A hundred taels make a fortune."
, a place where chickens don’t chatter, where the ancestors have spirit.”
Gao Shan climbed up the wall again, hiding in the darkness with his naturally dark appearance, acting as a watchdog for Lei Feng and Yu Wuluo.
...
After Yu Xinhai, Yu Xinhua, Yu Zhongbao, Yu Zhongzhun, and Yu Zhongshi entered the room, they were still on dangerous ground even though they had changed places.
But the situation was unimaginable a few days ago.
They tried their best to choose a small path when submitting their letters. For those who are studying, after Yu Cun ascended the throne from his home and shouted, his disciples showed great courage.
After being captured by Mr. Ma and others, they wandered around on the trails for several days. Because they stayed overnight on the dense forest and grassy trails, Mr. Ma did not interrogate them every night. Also, because there was no house to imprison them, they were given a small amount of food every day and went from morning to night.
The whole night was spent in bondage.
Before encountering the Siping Marquis Mansion, Mr. Ma temporarily bought a carriage to accommodate them. The carriage was bumpy and the people were tied up. They did not have enough food and sleep. When Yu Wuluo saw them after dinner today, they were languid and haggard.
It won't work if we don't untie them tonight. If they are tied up again, their blood circulation will be blocked, and their hands and feet will be disabled in severe cases. Then Mr. Ma will interrogate them one by one. He is afraid that they will collude in confession. This is a practical method, so they are not tied up in time.
Not long after it was tied up, it still had to be loosened, which even Mr. Ma and others found troublesome.
Among the five people, Yu Xinhai, Yu Xinhua, and Yu Zhongbao have all been tortured. They were water tortured and covered with cloths. When they were on the verge of death, they rescued the mouth and nose. Doing this three times without showing any scars can make people dying, so there is no need to tie them up.
Bound.
Zhu Zheng took them to the courtyard where he lived. Five people lived in one room. There was no problem in moving freely in this room.
There seemed to be faint whispers outside the door, and the five of them had no time to listen carefully. This was an inn, and it was possible that they were whispering from across the courtyard. They leaned closer to meet each other, asking Yu Xinhua if he was okay, and asked Yu Xinhai how much Yu's recovery had been.
Yu Xinhua gritted his teeth: "I can't die, I just have something to say."
"Say." Both brothers and nephews said.
"I have done nothing wrong to do such a shocking thing! Zhang Lin is a monster for such a cruel act, and the Lei Fengqi he greeted will not be much better. Monster!"
It is normal to express anger.
Birds of a feather flock together, Zhang Lin's people are vicious, Zhang Lin is not a good person, and the Lei Fengqi he welcomes is certainly not a good person.
The tortured others said bitterly: "Yes."
"There is no fear of death, only benevolence." Yu Xinhua finished panting and huffed and puffed to rest.
Among them, Yu Xinhai was the eldest and the elder brother among his uncles. However, he was severely tortured and did not have much strength at this time. Yu Zhongbao was also tortured. Yu Zhongzhun and Yu Zhongshi looked at each other and said word by word:
"You must always find a way to escape, even if you are alone, and you must complete what the Master has told you!"
Yu Xinhai, Yu Xinhua, and Yu Zhongbao nodded: "Leave us alone. You try to escape. One of you will continue to deliver the message, and the other will try to report the message home."
Yu Cun wrote a letter to Yu Wuluo: Don't worry about the past events and decide whether to be male or female. The disappearance of his granddaughter was the trigger for Yu Cun's outbreak. He sent out a large number of his children and did not mind openly falling out with Zhang Lin.
Yu Xinhai and others carried a letter, asking Zhang Lin and Lei Fengqi to reveal the cause of the late emperor's death and the truth about his accession to the throne. This matter was written clearly.
The letter is now on Master Ma.
But the disciples know the content before going out.
Even if Lei Fengqi directly ascends the throne and conquers the country with force, the master still intends to pursue the truth to the end, so he has to take precautions and have his disciples memorize the address and the contents of the letter before going out.
Then why did Yu Cun write a letter?
If you handwrite the letter and seal it, the people you contact will believe it is Yu Cun's intention at a glance. This way, you will have high credibility and gain trust quickly.
You can move on without a letter in hand, you just have to put some effort into making the recipient trust you.
Yu Xinhai, who had gained some energy, said: "Chongzhun, Chongshi, this is a crowded inn. If we make some noise later, you can try to escape."
Yu Zhongzhun and Yu Zhongshi shed tears. They were reluctant to let go because of family ties, but they could not bear to let go out of righteousness. They cried: "Yes, you take care of yourselves and wait for us to come back to rescue you."
The low weeping did not dare to be louder, nor did it dare to continue. Intermittently, between the sobs, the five people heard another voice at the same time.
"A dog is not as good as Zhuangzi. He can make a fortune with a hundred taels. Where chickens don't chatter, the ancestors have spirit."
The sweet voice made every word clear for the first time, and five people blurted out: "Family motto!"
These few sentences are in the Yu family's family motto, and the children of the Yu family recite them collectively every year when worshiping their ancestors. They are not found in other families. These sentences contain two stories.
