Walking into a cesspit, the best evil widow wants to stand up
Chapter 387 Meat on the chopping board
The afternoon sun was shining brightly, the air was stuffy and filled with the chirping of cicadas.
In the tall and imposing mansion of Duke Ji, Duke Ji was pacing restlessly in the study with his hands behind his back. Having just seen Yang Wei off, Ji Ming felt inexplicably irritated.
According to the news brought by Yang Wei, Xu Mingchang seems to have found something. Should I be on guard against Yan'er? Ji Ming thought about it, returned to the desk, pondered for a while, and started writing.
After a long while, Ji Ming put down his pen, picked up the paper in his hand and blew it gently. After the ink was dry, he carefully folded it in half and stuffed it into a small bamboo tube.
"Somebody come!"
After hearing Ji Ming's words, Butler Hong pushed the door open and walked in, bowing with both hands and asking, "What do you want, Master?"
"Send someone to deliver this to the capital as soon as possible, and be careful~" As he said this, he handed over the bamboo tube in his hand.
"Don't worry, sir~" Butler Hong took the bamboo tube with both hands, turned around and walked out.
"call……"
Ji Ming sighed and sat down. This period of time was a critical moment. If the position of the crown prince was left vacant for one day in the Dazhi Dynasty, the people in the court would be unstable.
I heard from Yan'er that during this period of time they were visiting important officials in the court and persuaded all the ministers. They even dared to advise the emperor during his court sessions and brought up the issue of appointing a crown prince again.
The Emperor is also well aware of the importance of this matter. I heard that the plan to re-establish the Crown Prince has been in place during this period of time. At this important juncture, there cannot be any mistakes.
At the moment, we don’t know whether the information brought by Yang Wei is reliable, but for safety reasons, we still have to remind them to pay more attention.
Haste makes confusion happen. Little did he know that it was Ji Ming's own confusion that revealed the clues.
Butler Hong handed the bamboo tube in his hand to a burly man and whispered a few words in his ear.
The sturdy man nodded, clasped his hands together and said, "Master Hong, please rest assured, I will definitely bring the letter to you safely."
Butler Hong escorted the man to the door, where a servant was waiting with a tall horse. The sturdy man grabbed the reins, turned over and jumped onto the horse, squeezing his legs against the horse's belly:
"drive……"
The horse suddenly seemed to break free from the reins and galloped out, raising dust behind it.
Hongwu watched the man go, then turned back to the courtyard. What he didn't know was that a fast horse was following him.
……
At the same time, in the corner room of Meixiang Tower in Fenghuang County, a man and a woman were under house arrest. These two people were He Hua and Liang San.
Lotus felt regretful. She had been locked up here for half a month. Although food was delivered to her door every day, she still felt uneasy. She felt like meat on a chopping board, at the mercy of others.
Looking at Liang San who was sleeping soundly beside her, He Hua was furious. She pinched the soft flesh on Liang San's waist and said, "You just sleep all day long. You may not even know when you are about to die."
"what……!"
The defenseless Liang Sanda yelled. In addition to the pain, he immediately became angry and said, "Hey, are you annoying, bitch? If this happens, I will be the first to dump you!"
He is also very annoyed at the moment, is there any possible solution?
At first, it seemed that Lotus was quite capable and well-behaved, but unexpectedly, as time went on, she became more and more annoying to look at. She kept chattering all the time, and I really wanted to seal her mouth.
Lotus was angry: "I was blind at the beginning, why did I follow you to do such a wicked thing? We know so much about you, how can you let us go?"
After saying that, Lotus started crying again.
"I'm so annoyed~" Liang San lost all desire to sleep after being disturbed by He Hua's noise. He sat up after saying that.
At the beginning, Manager Qiu had agreed to send the two of them here to live for a while to avoid the limelight, and then take them back when the time comes.
When the two men first arrived here, they were treated to delicious food. It felt so good to be treated so well, and they were very proud of it.
But as time went on, they realized something was wrong. They were not allowed to go in or out, which was clearly putting them both under house arrest.
After sending them here, the shopkeeper Qiu seemed to have forgotten about them. When they first came here, people treated them very well, but as time went by, not only the attitude has become worse, but the food has also become worse.
What can I do? I want to go out, but there are people guarding outside.
Manager Qiu thought that the situation in Heyang County was tense, so he sent the two people here based on his relationship with Manager He of Meixianglou. He thought that he could take them back later and they would be of some use.
Although Chunxianglou and Meixianglou have the same owner, they are not managed by the same person.
If it weren't for the fact that Shopkeeper Qiu was Mr. Ji's confidant, Shopkeeper He would never agree to have them send these two people to him.
Now that half a month has passed, I have been fed up with providing these two with good food and shelter every day. What's more, these two people keep saying they want to go out.
Just then, someone from Shopkeeper Qiu came and said that they wanted to take the two of them away. Of course, Shopkeeper He was happy to agree.
Shopkeeper Qiu sent two people over to settle the bill at the front desk. Even though they were all from the same family and had been eating and drinking for free for half a month, they of course had to pay the bill, and the bill naturally fell on Shopkeeper Qiu's head.
Upon hearing that Manager Qiu had sent someone to pick them up, Liang San and He Hua jumped up excitedly, as they had finally waited for someone to arrive.
But as soon as he saw the person coming, Liang San had a bad feeling in his heart. He couldn't explain the feeling, but he felt vaguely uneasy.
The two men looked fierce and murderous. As soon as they entered the room, they threw down two sets of clothes for the two to change.
"Master Yang asked us to pick you up. Hurry up and change into these clothes. It's almost dark now and no one will notice us. We can hurry on our way!"
Seeing the clothes thrown away by the two people, Lotus frowned. In front of them were two sets of gray coarse cloth clothes that were washed to a pale color.
Thinking about how long it had been since she had worn such clothes, Lotus pouted and said, "My lords, this dress is too ugly. Why should I change it? I think the clothes I have now are pretty good."
"I told you to change, so don't waste your time! Hurry up~" Facing Lotus's delicate and pretentious behavior, the man had no expression on his face and said coldly, "Be smart and change your clothes quickly~"
Liang San hurriedly said, "Don't be angry, gentlemen. This little girl is ignorant. We will replace her right away."
Then he glared at Lotus and said, "Just change when I told you to. Why are you talking so much nonsense? Let's change clothes and leave!"
He didn't know what the point of changing clothes was, but he must have a purpose for Manager Qiu to do this, probably to conceal his tracks.
After a short while, the two of them changed their clothes and followed the two men out.
A man stood at the door looking at Liang San and the others, while another man drove a carriage over and let the two men get on.
The carriage left the county town and headed towards the suburbs. Liang San was secretly observing along the way. He found something wrong. The carriage was not heading towards Heyang County.
