The belly of this chamberlain was astonishingly huge, like that of a full-term pregnant woman. When she bent over and half-knelt, her belly was almost touching the ground. The chamberlain frowned, worried that her waist would be broken by something falling from her belly.
.He asked: "Are you pregnant?"
Could it be that this chambermaid is a girl?
The chamberlain smiled bitterly and said: "Please don't play tricks on me, servant. Even though my slave has been knifed and lost his manly things, he has not given birth to women's things. How can he be pregnant? Just wait for a while, this thing is tightly wrapped, and it won't be pregnant."
It’s so easy to untie.”
After saying that, he kept half-kneeling and bent over, and struggled to untie the three inner and outer layers of the belt. The last hand held his heavy belly, and the other hand threw the last belt aside. He gasped lightly, and carefully used both hands to
Hold something on the ground.
The waiter heard the sound of something falling to the ground.
Taking a closer look, it turned out to be a clay pot.
He wondered: "What is this?"
The chamberlain replied in a low voice: "It is the bones of Lord Yan."
The waiter didn't remember who the "Yan Gong" was for a moment. After all, the whole court knew that Yan'an's body had been chopped into pieces and fed to dogs. Until he and the waiter looked at each other for a few seconds, under the latter's expectant eyes.
, a bold idea came into the mind of the waiter, like an electric current flowing through the body. He suddenly opened his eyes wide, pointed at the clay pot, and whispered in disbelief: "Yes, is it Yan Xingning?"
The chamberlain nodded: "It's Mr. Banquet."
The waiter was so frightened that he raised his head and looked around. He hurriedly closed the door and bolted it. Then he hurriedly turned back and grabbed the waiter's arm and asked hurriedly: "Hasn't Xingning's body been taken to feed...those little beasts? Why?
it's here?"
The chamberlain timidly explained: "I am on duty in the cat and dog room. I can't bear to be treated like this. I can't bear for him to be eaten by the little beasts in the cat and dog room. After discussing with others, I deduced that the little beast's mouth was spoiled.
He doesn't like human flesh, so he decides to throw the bones of Lord Yan into the furnace and burn them... Although this method cannot leave the whole body, if the violent master pursues it, he can replace it with animal bones..."
It is better to leave the ashes of a whole body than to feed cats and dogs.
The chamberlain looked at the servant anxiously, not sure whether the latter was happy or angry, fearing that the other party would suddenly kill him. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva and continued with the encouragement of a lonely man: "The banquet master is kind to his slaves.
If it hadn't been for Yangong's insistence back then, I don't know how many people would have died in the snowstorms in those two years. The slaves would not have had the chance to cut their roots and enter the palace to find a way to survive..."
Although he is an eunuch, he also knows how to repay his kindness.
The temporary palace was not strict with eunuchs like them, so he accidentally learned that the servant was being released, so he boldly came out.
The waiter murmured: "You are so brave!"
Protect Yan'an's body under Zheng Qiao's nose.
It was something he didn't even dare to think about.
"Aren't you afraid of death?"
When Yan'an assassinated Zheng Qiao, the anger was at its peak. Once Zheng Qiao found out what these servants had done, all the maggots in the ancestral graves would be picked out and screamed at.
The chamberlain whispered: "If you die, you will die."
"Oh, there is no need to be so self-conscious. Who is not born with two arms, two legs, and one head? Once you are cornered, you will be killed at the neck, all with one knife." Although the servant is from a noble family, the situation in the northwest continent is chaotic. It's unbearable. The so-called noble family also means that it will be destroyed when it is destroyed. Every time it comes and goes, it loses the arrogance that is inherent in the family.
The integrity of the waiter in front of me is also worthy of admiration.
Hearing this, the chamberlain burst into tears of gratitude and gave a salute: "Excuse me, waiter, I'd like to find a quiet place with good feng shui so that Mr. Yan can rest in peace. This can be regarded as comforting Mr. Yan's spirit in heaven."
"I'm afraid I can't fulfill your request..." When the chamberlain heard this, his face suddenly turned pale, and then he heard the servant say, "Because Xingning still has blood relatives alive, don't worry, I will definitely collect his bones." Hand it over to his Yishuang hands."
The waiter's mood fluctuated greatly, and he was almost frightened to death.
But when I heard that Yan'an's blood relative was still alive, I was overjoyed.
Then he made a big salute: "Okay, okay, this slave will feel relieved. I look at my face and say thank you to the servants for the banquet master!"
After saying that, he was ready to go back under the cover of night.
The waiter hurriedly stopped him: "What are you going back for?"
It's better to follow their family and leave this place of trouble. Doesn't such a kind and kind housekeeper deserve to live more than Zheng Qiao?
The chamberlain politely declined the invitation and whispered: "I can come out thanks to the help of several colleagues to cover me. If I don't go back when the time comes, I might hurt them. I don't need to worry about my servant. Good or bad, good or bad, it's all destiny... …”
Looking at this little waiter, the waiter was speechless for a moment.
The chamberlain walked to the door and stopped, turned around and saluted the servant sincerely: "I wish the servant a long and prosperous career."
The waiter looked at the young chamberlain and returned the gesture.
The little chambermaid came and went quietly.
After a while, the wife who had been hiding came out, looked at the clay pot brought by the chamberlain, and asked her husband with her eyes.
The waiter looked like he was surviving a disaster.
He said: "If there is no danger, let's continue to clean up."
Finally, before daylight broke, the family drove away through the morning fog from this land of right and wrong that was about to be swallowed up by the flames of war.
To go to Longwu County, you need to cross the river first, and then take the road to Liguan via Yanzhou. At this time, Yanzhou is in the hands of the Dragon Slaying Bureau coalition forces, and the coalition forces are mostly high-ranking warlords with strong military support from various places, and a few of them have climbed up from the bottom. The ruthless man who came up. The servant was an official in the court and knew the urinal nature of this group of people very well. He did not want to fall into the wolf den of this group of ruthless people just after escaping from Zheng Qiao's tiger den.
The lady in charge suggested that they could take a detour to her parents' house first to avoid trouble, and then make plans after Zheng Qiao and the others decided the outcome of the war.
She selfishly doesn't want to go to Longwu County.
Firstly, it is remote and barbaric, and foreign races are rampant, so it is not a good place; secondly, the whole family cannot bear to travel long distances. From here to Longwu, they have to face countless troubles along the way, such as banditry, military disasters, and ferocious beasts. How to eat well?
As for the broken sword and Yan'an's corpse...
Once everything calms down, it won't be too late to send it off.
But she wasn't the one who made the decision.
The waiter thought for a moment and ordered the driver to turn to the direction of Cunshan. He was ready to arrive before Zheng Qiao sent out his troops.
Upon hearing this, the waiter's wife turned pale and said, "Master Lang, didn't you just say that the people in the Dragon Slaying Bureau were a wolf's den? Since it is a wolf's den, it is natural to avoid it as early as possible. Why did Master Lang throw himself into a trap?"
Didn’t Master Lang say that Cunshan was deceived?
Madam lives deep in the backyard of the inner house, so naturally she doesn't know the situation outside. The waiter patiently analyzed it with her: "Madam, I don't know that the mastermind behind the scheme to deceive Cunshan is Shen Youli, the governor of Longwu County. Shen Youli has an adviser, Kang Jishou, and Kang Jishou and Xingning is also a close friend. Therefore, it should be Xingning's intention for Ning Yan to go to Longwu County."
The lady nodded thoughtfully: "Mr. Sir, what do you mean, sir, we can find Governor Shen and entrust Xingning's ashes and Zheng Qiao's broken sword to Kang Jishou, who will then deliver it to Tunan?"
Save yourself the trouble of going to Longwu County in person?
The waiter said: "Madam, you only guessed half of it."
The lady asked him: "What is the other half?"
The waiter lowered his eyes to hide the shrewd calculations surging in his eyes, and said: "Once Zheng Qiao is defeated and dies, all forces will inevitably compete around Qianzhou, Yanzhou, Lingzhou and other places, and start another war. If you don't seek refuge with one party, , I’m afraid it will be difficult.”
The lady frowned and said, "Isn't it okay to live in seclusion?"
The waiter forced a smile: "How can it be so easy?"
The word "seclusion" sounds comfortable and comfortable. If there is no support from the family, life will be miserable and everything must be done by oneself. How can a lady who has never done hard work get used to it? It would be better if there is support from the family. , but what this world teaches is that wealth should not be revealed, wealth should not be revealed, soldiers are like a grate, and bandits are like a comb. Failure to protect them will one day lead to death and disaster, which will affect the whole family.
Or find a stable place.
Or find a reliable backer.
At the moment, it is most important to find a place to stand.
The waiter chose to go to Cunshan because he actually had two thoughts. If Shen Tang was strong enough, he could use the risk of sending the corpse to a banquet to establish friendship with Kang Jishou, gain a firm foothold and then start plotting. If Shen Tang was strong enough, he could Not enough, he returned Yan'an's body and took the road to another place. With Kang Jishou escorting him, the family could pass through Cunshan safely...
The Dragon Slaying Bureau coalition forces will not take action against him.
The waiter kept all these thoughts in his stomach.
As long as they have not entered Cunshan's sphere of influence, the Shizhong family dare not relax their nerves. Zheng Qiao is a madman, and it is normal for a madman to go back on his word. Fortunately, although there were accidents along the way, they all passed without risk. A few days later, the waiter finally saw a shadow standing behind the morning mist, like a silent giant lying on the ground taking a nap.
"Stop, who's in front of you?"
Before the group reached the foot of Cunshan City, they were intercepted by a group of patrol soldiers. The leader was a young leader with a very feminine appearance. The two parties were separated by thirty or forty feet and looked at each other from a distance. The servant comforted his wife and children. Open the curtain and bend out.
"When I was in Kang Dynasty, I was an old friend of Kang Jishou. Because his family was in trouble, he came here to seek refuge." The waiter cupped his hands and told the story.
The waiter did not mention Ning Yan's name.
In his opinion, Ning Yan was a "close friend" who defected to Kang Shi. How could Shen Tang's soldiers know about the personal contacts of his military adviser? So he directly mentioned Kang Shi's name.
As expected, the patrol leader knew Kang Shi. When he heard this, his face became less alert: "Are you an old friend of Commander Kang?"
The waiter said: "Exactly."
The young team leader looked strange for some unknown reason.
As the saying goes, "Birds of a feather flock together, people flock together", Bao Buqi came to seek refuge with Military Master Kang's old friend... Bao Buqi cheated the Lord just like Military Master Kang. This was verified from the circle of friends in Qi Zhubu. She was grumbling in her heart, but she couldn't act.
Ignore the other person.
"In that case, sir, please come with me."
The servant was very wise and ordered the guards to hand over their weapons.
The main thing is sincerity!
Zhao Wei nodded with satisfaction upon seeing this.
The waiter asked Zhao Wei about Kang Shi's whereabouts. He thought Kang Shi was also in Cunshan City, but was told that Kang Shi was still at the base camp.
This result exceeded the waiter's plan, and he looked slightly troubled.
He asked: "Why doesn't Kang Jishou join the army?"
Shen Tang's team was sloppy and had complicated members. The waiter expected that with Kang Jishou's background and talents, it was unlikely that he would be ignored.
But after he asked, he regretted that he was quick to talk. To put it more seriously, this question was like spying on military intelligence. Fortunately, Zhao Wei didn't care about it, because the scribe in front of him brought his family with him. How dare he have any bad intentions?
Don't you want to be served in one pot?
"Commander Kang... is a little inconvenient..."
Zhao Wei replied with a smile.
Since she is an old friend of Commander Kang, there is no reason why she should not know the way of the other scholar as a scholar. She gave a few hints and understood everything.
But the waiter really doesn't understand.
But this does not prevent him from making the logic self-consistent through brainstorming.
Not long after, a group of people arrived at the foot of Cunshan City.
The waiter looked up at the towering city wall that seemed to be able to block out the sky and the sun, and then thought about the efforts Zheng Qiao had put into the defense of this city. The corner of his mouth twitched imperceptibly, and he felt a bit gloating about his misfortune.
Zheng Qiao, yes!
"Open the city gate!"
After Zhao Wei finished communicating with the city guards, the city gate creaked and opened a gap that could allow carriages to pass through.
Entering the city, the waiter's heart dropped completely, which meant that their family was truly free from Zheng Qiao's threat.
Zhao Wei arranged a temporary place to stay.
"Sir, would you like to meet my lord?"
Although this person was under the banner of defecting to his old friend Kang Shi, Military Advisor Kang was not here at the moment, so it was impossible to tell whether this was true or not. Zhao Wei could not let an unverified person walk around the city at will, so he took him to see his lord for a visit.
A clear path is necessary.
The waiter said gratefully: "I can't get it."
Zhao Wei told them to wait in the small courtyard to wait for the announcement.
I went to report to Shen Tang.
Upon hearing that Kang Shi's friends had come to seek refuge, Shen Tang subconsciously trembled: "Did Dawei find out how he was a scribe?"
Zhao Wei was almost speechless.
"I didn't ask anything..."
Not every literary scribe has the way of a scribe.
Shen Tang rubbed his temples with a headache and said, "Oh, it's a blessing, not a curse. It's a curse that cannot be avoided... Just let him do it."
I hope Ji Shou’s circle of friends is more reliable than Yuan Liang’s.
Shen Tang sent someone to invite the waiter. The waiter took a deep breath, straightened his clothes and appearance, and strode out of the small courtyard. But before he got halfway, he accidentally saw a very familiar profile face, and almost staggered on his right ankle.
It was wet.
He barely managed to keep his figure steady so that he didn't feel embarrassed.
But his actions still attracted the attention of others.
Among them are Ning Yan and Ning Tunan.
Ning Yan looked at him, and he looked at Ning Yan, speechless.
The waiter opened his mouth after a long while: "You, are you Tunan?"
Ning Yan frowned and asked, "Why are you here?"
It is a good thing to meet an old friend in a foreign country, but if the old friend works under the enemy, the joy will be compromised.
The interactions between Ning Yan and Shi Zhong were mainly concentrated when they were young students. After they got married, they had little contact. The occasional meeting was just a family relationship. Ning Yan didn't know much about Shi Zhong.
But in Xingning's words, he is still decent.
Well, compared to Zheng Qiao.
Unexpectedly, the waiter stared blankly at the inscriptions hanging on Ning Yan's waist, as well as the literary aura emanating from her body. After a while, he pointed at Ning Yan with a trembling finger and said astonishingly: "Ning, Ning Tunan...
…You, you, you are actually a man!”
Ning Yan: "..."
The waiter looked at her belly again.
He clearly remembered that Ning Yan was pregnant.
"Male, how can a man get pregnant?"
What on earth did his two classmates do behind his back!
Ning Yan put her fingers against the sword grille, unsheathed her sword a little, and said calmly: "Xie, don't say anything too outrageous!"
