Scroll A, Qi Luqing is not over, the eighth section is still ahead
"Mr. Jia, what should we do now?" Although the old woman was frightened, she was still somewhat considerate and hugged the little girl tightly.
"I'm afraid it's hard to go back." Jia Yucun huddled up and hid in the alley, carefully covering two piles of straw in front of the three of them. Two scoundrels had already run past before, and they relied on these two piles of straw as cover.
Just now he escaped from the opponent's sight.
The broken pieces of straw were stuck to the body, and the sweat was almost soaked through the entire clothes as he ran for his life. The feeling was really uncomfortable, but if he wanted to escape with his life, he didn't dare to do anything rashly and had to die.
Hidden motionless in this pile of straw.
Jia Yucun's eyes fell on the black gate with two stone lions in front of him.
The Qingtiaoshi threshold was clean, and this family looked like a wealthy family, but the door was closed, and no one answered the door when they knocked on the door.
If I want to look elsewhere, this section is almost entirely covered with courtyard walls and there are no gates. If I want to go further, I am afraid of encountering something unexpected, so I can only huddle up in this alley for shelter.
"Sir, what do you want to hide in this big house?" The little girl hiding in the mother-in-law's arms suddenly asked timidly.
Jia Yucun was a little surprised. He had been this girl's husband for more than a year. He also knew that although this girl didn't speak much, she was very opinionated. She was worthy of being from a noble family, but she was only seven years old anyway. Meeting such a girl
He couldn't even catch himself for the disaster that caused the sky, let alone a little girl?
"Well, I'm afraid this civil unrest won't stop anytime soon. Did we see any soldiers during our escape?"
Squeezing his body slightly inward and pressing against the wall, Jia Yucun stroked his black beard and said thoughtfully.
"I don't know why the Linqing Guards, who should have thousands of soldiers, did not send troops under such circumstances and just sat back and watched the civil unrest spread. Even though the bank and government offices were in the brick city, the merchants in Linqing City were afraid
They all have some background, even there are a few imperial merchants, but why are the guards unwilling to leave the city? If the guards still refuse to leave the city, no place in the city will be safe..."
"Sir, are you saying that such a wealthy family can be stable?" The little girl's palm-sized pink cheeks were dotted with paint, and her pupils were like ink. She blinked, obviously not agreeing with her husband's opinion.
"I'm afraid those gangsters from before will find a wealthy family like this sooner or later. If we do, we'll be trapped in a trap, right?"
Jia Yucun knew that this girl had always had a stubborn temper, and she was sympathetic to his somewhat aloof father, but he did not expect that she would have such thoughts in such a situation.
Jia Yucun was surprised and didn't think much about it. He just explained with a wry smile: "Don't underestimate such large families. Linqing City is one of the few land and water docks in the North. Even if the gathering of wealthy merchants is not as good as that of Su Yang, it is not as big as that of Ordinary Prefecture."
Now, this kind of big house is either the residence of a wealthy businessman or the residence of a prominent local family. I guess there are still some hiding places and places to hide, but I hope you can get some connections and give me a way out.
."
"If that's the case, we have never met them, how can these people be willing to give me convenience easily?" Hu's bright eyes flashed, the little girl had a sharp tongue, and she was quite suspicious.
"You have to give it a try. Can't you just sit here and wait for death? At such a young age, your family and life are at stake, do you really think this is just playing house?"
Jia Yucun was also a little annoyed in his heart, and his face was serious. When he usually taught books, he also felt that this girl was smart and agile, so he indulged a little, but developed such a temper.
Seeing that the teacher's face was not good-looking, the little girl stuck out her tongue and did not dare to say anything more.
Feng You turned around, the narrow-edged sword in his hand quietly unsheathed and placed against his back.
Feng's house is facing the street gate, and the sun is like fire, making the ground hot. Although it seems to be quite deserted now, there may be snoopers hiding somewhere on the street, waiting for you.
The flaw was exposed, but now he didn't have much time to waste, so he could only bite the bullet and take advantage of it.
Stepping out vigorously, after a few ups and downs, Feng You was already close to the door, shaking the copper ring with the animal head violently, "Old Fu, Lao Fu, open the door quickly!"
The Feng family's ancestral home was Yangzhou, but this large branch had moved to Linqing during the Zhengtong period of the pre-Ming Dynasty, so the Feng family in Yangzhou was divided into northern and southern branches.
After the Great Zhou Dynasty was established, a branch of the Feng family in Linqing, that is, Feng Ziying's great-grandfather's generation, took the initiative to serve in Taizu's Northern Expedition and was knighted for their military exploits, so they stayed in the capital ever since.
But this branch suffered heavy losses in the frontier war among Feng Ziying's father's generation. There were three brothers in the family, Feng Qin, Feng Han, and Feng Tang. Feng Ziying's father, Feng Tang, was the only one left, and Feng Tang's subordinates were even more so.
Only Feng Ziying, the legitimate son,
Nowadays, the old house of Feng and Tang's family in Linqing has long been uninhabited. Even the Feng family in the capital rarely comes back every year. Only Lao Fu and his wife are left to guard the door, which is normal.
The red-lacquered door opened quickly, and the gray-headed old man responded hurriedly: "Feng You, where is the young master?"
"In the back." Feng You didn't bother to say more. He jumped down the steps in one step, holding the knife in his hand and looking around, maintaining a vigilant posture. With his other hand, he had already waved to Feng Ziying and his group who were hiding in the alley with the wall to come over quickly.
Feng Ziying and the others immediately ran over quickly. Just as they had time to go up the steps, they saw two people running towards them from the alley opposite.
Feng You was taken aback. He suddenly raised his narrow-edged sword and wanted to buy someone's life. However, he heard the first of the two men opposite him hurriedly clasping his fists and begging: "Hold on, hero. We are not bandits. We cannot return because of the chaos on the street. I just want to ask for help."
A hiding place will definitely reward you generously."
Feng You didn't expect to encounter such a thing. Obviously, the Feng family's mansion is also a place that attracts attention. Feng You is even more upset when he thinks of this. This means that it is difficult for the Feng family's mansion to escape the robbers.
If you come here, there will be disaster sooner or later.
Seeing that Feng You was so gloomy and frightening, the narrow-edged sword in his hand was slightly raised. If he wasn't careful, he might strike at him with the sword. The middle-aged man begged more humbly and almost knelt down.
"For your convenience, we are merchants from Jinling. We have heard about the great scenery of Linqing for a long time, so we made a special trip to take a look. Unexpectedly, we encountered such a disaster..."
Feng Ziying and others had already stepped into the threshold. Uncle Fu was busy preparing to close the door, but he never thought that in this situation, Feng You would not be able to make the decision. After all, the owner of Feng House is still Brother Keng. What will happen if he lets people in in the future?
, he is also difficult to deal with.
While he was hesitating, Feng Ziying had already spoken in a deep voice: "Uncle You, let them go in first. It's not beautiful to block the door."
Feng Ziying saw the fierce look in Feng You's eyes, and she was probably worried that the other party had leaked the secret. But at this time, if you start killing people in this door, I'm afraid it will be even more troublesome. If you really want to cut off the source of trouble, you should bring people into the courtyard.
Say it again.
Feng You thought the same thing. It would be a disaster to have these two people entangled in tears at the door, and for outsiders to spy on the truth.
Hearing what the young master said, Uncle Fu could only open the door and let the two of them in, even though he was unwilling to do so.
