There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 422
[Chapter 422, she is so lucky]
Knowing from Daddy Cheap that so many people are looking for gold mines, Daohua felt a little uneasy. During this period, Xiao Yeyang and her two brothers didn’t return for several days. The house is over, and my heart is getting more and more anxious.
It’s also my fault that she didn’t think carefully about the problem. She only thought about finding the gold mine mouth to get a reward. She never thought about how many people’s interests would be involved in a gold mine.
Jiang’s family, the strongest relatives in the dynasty, one family and two queens; Prince Duan, the former emperor’s favorite prince, also involved in the secrets of succession to the throne.
These forces are the tyrants at the top of the food chain in this era. It is better for their families to stay far away from what they are staring at, so as not to become cannon fodder for their confrontation.
After figuring this out, Dao Hua became even more anxious to see Yan Wenkai and Yan Wentao. After two days, seeing that they hadn’t returned, she sent Qin Xiaoliu to deliver a letter to Xiao Yeyang’s mansion in the city.
But after waiting for two days, there was no accurate reply.
Seeing this, Daohua couldn’t sit still anymore. After thinking about it, she hurried to the old lady’s yard, and went to Taohua Village on the pretext of sending winter clothes and charcoal fire to Master and Granny Gu.
After the previous falcon died, Xiao Yeyang put another one there, so that the falcon could find Xiao Yeyang directly.
On the boat, because the weather was getting colder, Daohua didn’t dare to stay on the deck for a long time. Just as she was about to go back to the cabin, she saw three blood-stained people rushing out of the river bank.
“Ah~”
Wang Man’er couldn’t hold back, and screamed: “Girl, it’s that Master Wu.”
Daohua also recognized it, and one of them was Master Wu who was with Master Wu last time, and was hesitating whether to take it or not. To save people, at this time, seven or eight men in black with swords rushed out of the bank.
“Isn’t it?” Is
her luck too bad?
Daohua’s face turned pale in an instant, unlike the previous hesitation, she quickly said to Qin Xiaoliu: “Brother Xiaoliu, move the boat closer to the shore, remember, don’t get too close, don’t let people get on it. Come on board.”
If there were only Master Wu and the other three, she could still pretend she didn’t know, and just leave. Anyway, he is an official of the imperial court. Even if she doesn’t save him, at most he will be listed as incommunicable, and he won’t do anything drastic. Behavior.
But now there are men in black with unknown identities. Those men in black dare to kill even the officials ordered by the court.
For the sake of her life, she had to help Master Wu and the other three get rid of those men in black.
Qin Xiaoliu didn’t hesitate, and hurriedly went to steer the boat himself. His forehead was full of sweat. They used to run darts, and they often fought with others, but compared with those people on the shore who saw blood, they were really small. play tricks.
Both parties on the shore spotted the boat in the river, but they couldn’t pull their hands away now, and the boat was still some distance away from the shore, so they ignored it.
However, they ignored it, and the people on board did it.
“Bang bang bang!”
After the people on the river bank entered the range of the slingshot, Daohua fired pellets one by one to the bank continuously.
The man in black was very vigilant. The moment the pill came, he thought it was a hidden weapon and avoided it one after another. Seeing that the pill exploded and the scent of the medicine filled the air, he immediately closed his breath.
Wu Jingyi knew about the pills, and quickly motioned the two men to hold their breath, but he was smiling wryly in his heart.
This move can’t deal with King Duan’s slain soldiers. Last time they got hit, one was because of carelessness, and the other was that Yan Wentao and Yan Wenkai had lowered their vigilance.
But these dead soldiers wandered on the edge of life and death all year round, and they were even more cautious when fighting. I am afraid that using drugs to stun them will not be effective.
Indeed, as Wu Jingyi thought, the man in black was not affected by the drug.
Seeing that the people on the boat dared to meddle in their own business, the man in black immediately sent two people to kill the boat.
However, before they ran a few steps, the two men in black stopped, and scratched their bodies funny-looking.
“What are you doing?”
The man in black roared angrily, and before he could finish speaking, he began to wriggle himself, the sore itching on his body made him unable to hold the sword in his hand steadily.
“Damn it!”
The man in black couldn’t help cursing immediately.
They thought it was a drug, and thought that they would be fine if they closed their breath, but who knew, it wasn’t at all.
Just as he was about to tell his subordinates to retreat, Wu Jingyi and the other three came to kill him.
On the boat, seeing that the man in black had been recruited, Daohua felt relieved, and quickly said to Qin Xiaoliu, “Leave the boat.” After speaking, she entered the cabin without looking back.
In the cabin, Dao Hua sat by the window, watched the last man in black fall under Wu Jingyi’s sword, and quickly lowered the curtains.
“Girl, let’s have a cup of tea!”
Wang Man’er followed his father to walk the darts since he was a child. Although he had never seen such a bloody scene, he had already cultivated his psychological quality. Except for the initial fear, he quickly calmed down.
Seeing that Dao Hua’s face was still pale, she carefully went up and poured her a cup of tea.
Dao Hua reached out to pick it up, but found that her hands were trembling badly, she immediately withdrew her hands, and said stiffly, “I won’t drink.”
Wang Man’er put down the teacup silently.
After a while, Daohua asked, “Who are the people coming out today?”
Wang Man’er immediately reported the names of the people coming out.
Daohua clasped her hands tightly, and was silent for a while: “Let Little Sixth Brother go and tell me, I’ve forgotten everything about today, don’t tell it, anyone who wants to tell it, sell it directly.”
Wang Man’er nodded: “Yes .”
After a while, Peach Blossom Village arrived.
After getting off the boat, Daohua quickly ran up the mountain.
Gu Jian was tidying up the vegetable field in the courtyard. When he saw the rice flowers, he was overjoyed at first. It can be seen that her face turned pale, and she immediately put down the hoe, walked over and asked, “What’s wrong with you girl?”
Seeing Gu Jian, the rice flowers Hua regained her composure, thinking that her master once knocked a guard flying with a stick, so she couldn’t help but tell what happened just now.
After hearing this, Gu Jian’s face changed. Seeing that Daohua seemed to be frightened, he immediately comforted him: “Girl, you did the right thing. It’s okay, the weather has turned cold these days, and my sister coughed badly again. Help me to see her.”
Dao Hua was distracted: “Is mother-in-law okay?”
Gu Jian: “I coughed for a long time last night, and I am still sleeping with you. You came just in time, and went to the kitchen to cook for my sister.” Finish stewing pears with rock sugar.”
Daohua nodded, first went to the room to look at Granny Gu, and seeing that she was still asleep, she turned and went to the kitchen.
Seeing Daohua enter the kitchen, Gu Jian immediately stepped out of the Peach Blossom Temple.
After Daohua made the rock sugar pears and fed them to Grandma Gu, Gu Jian came back with Wu Jingyi and the three of them.
Wu Jingyi had passed out because of his serious injuries, and the other two were also seriously injured, so Gu Jian arranged to live in Xiao Yeyang’s room.
“Master, why did you bring the three of them back?”
Looking at the worried apprentice, Gu Jian smiled: “Don’t worry, the traces on the road have been erased for the master, and no one will find this place.
” Daohua breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Jian saw that she was a little funny, and then lamented the little apprentice’s luck: “If I hadn’t met you this time, they would have died.”
Daohua wondered: “Aren’t they the emperor’s spies, who dares to kill them? ”
Gu Jian sneered: “Not all people in this world listen to the emperor.” The
palace.
Renshou Palace.
The Empress Dowager looked at Cheng Engong in front of her with a livid face, and said sadly: “Brother is confused, is the Jiang family allowed to contaminate the gold mine? It is a serious crime to steal the family and exterminate the family.”
Cheng Engong frowned and said: “The queen mother calms down, I can’t do anything about it. You have seen the emperor’s attitude towards the Jiang family these years. I just want to prepare a way out for the Jiang family for the gold mine.” The
queen mother rubbed and swelled . On the forehead: “My brother wants to leave a way for the Jiang family, I don’t care, but it can’t be a gold mine. There is no impenetrable wall in the world. Once the Jiang family’s private mining of gold mines is revealed, it is tantamount to handing the knife directly to the emperor.” ”
As long as I am still alive, the emperor will not dare to touch the Jiang family for the sake of reputation, but if the Jiang family does something disobedient, the civil and military forces of the whole dynasty will not be able to save the Jiang family.”
Cheng Engong hesitated: “Then But the gold mine, if the Jiang family gets it, they can keep their wealth for generations.” The
queen mother said sharply: “No matter how rich you are, you have to live to enjoy it!” She paused, “How far has the gold mine matter progressed? ?”
Cheng Engong: “Still looking for it, I’m sure it’s in the Ningmen mansion.” The
queen mother thought for a while: “My brother will go to see the emperor later and say that he has a gift for him, but the gift hasn’t come yet. Get ready, and present it to him as soon as you are ready.”
Cheng Engong knew what the Empress Dowager meant, and was very reluctant to part with it.
In order to find the gold mine, the Jiang family spent a lot of manpower and financial resources. After finding it, they had to hand it over to the emperor. Thinking about it, they felt that they were losing money.
Seeing him like this, the queen mother shook her head invisibly, and said patiently: “Now that the treasury is empty, and the northern border is constantly fighting, if the Jiang family can help the emperor at this time, can the emperor not remember the Jiang family’s love? Such a big Credit, the emperor still can not award? Don’t just focus on the petty gains in the foreword, take a long-term view.”
