Lady forced to seek prince

Zhao Luoyang felt relieved when his third uncle said everyone was well.

The people sent by the little mute have entered the city, and the rest of the Feng family will not be able to make any more troubles. The next thing is to solve one thing.

Zhao Luoyang looked at Huai Zheng beside him: "Did Zou Guangda find it?"

Huai Zheng said: "The members of the Zou family have already been arrested. Zou Guangda took some money himself and hid in a small courtyard. We chased him several times, but he had nowhere to go. It's time to work hard."

Huaiguang has been secretly deploying people, but he didn't show up in front of others, because he is a person close to the little mute, and many people in the Feng family know him.

Huaiguang still needs to protect Wangjiazhuangzi, and if Xue Ding fails to come, Huaiguang will lead people to capture Zhu Youqing.

Even now that Xue Ding is here, Huaiguang still has to deal with these people in the city, which ones will be sent for interrogation, and which ones will be dealt with on the spot. It is impossible to arrest everyone and send them to prison, which will waste too much manpower and material resources. The state government office does not have so much energy to do this.

Huai Zheng has been waiting to listen to his orders, and Shi Jiu is very satisfied with his respectful appearance. He has given orders to treat Zhao Luoyang just like he did to him, and everyone around him has done it.

Zhao Luoyang said: "Send Zou Guangda to Mr. Cao!"

Huai Zheng understood and said nothing: "I will do it right away."

Zhao Luoyang and Shi Jiu said: "Everyone is so busy, we can't just let Mr. Cao get by like this, and come all the way from the capital to Taozhou, so we can do something."

Shi Jiu didn't say much, just laughed, watching Xiao Jiajia order his people to do things, he was inexplicably happy, just like when Xiao Jiajia gave him half of the wild vegetable cake in his hand when he was a child.

Zhao Luoyang said: "Shi Jiu, is there anything I have done wrong, or have I forgotten?"

"No," Shi Jiu said, "They are all handled well, especially the two Beijing officials."

The two Beijing officials, Zhao Luoyang, made clear arrangements. From the beginning when they saw them to test, to leaving usable thanks behind, sending Cao Ben to the dung truck, and now letting Zou Guangda go to see Cao Ben, everything was done. Think carefully.

"It's not that I have a black heart," Zhao Luoyang said, "Those people in Beijing sent Cao Ben here because they wanted to leave his life in Taozhou."

Cao Ben asked someone to send a letter to find reinforcements, but his entourage hid after they left the city. They didn't mean to deliver the letter, and they were obviously bought by others.

Zhao Luoyang believed that Cao Ben wanted the reinforcements to come later, not not not to come, but the people behind Cao Ben didn't think so, they didn't think about showing up from the beginning.

This matter was made clear from the very beginning by Taifu Yidang. If Zhao Jingyun won, they would take the opportunity to suppress the Feng family. If Zhao Jingyun lost, the Feng family might kill Cao Ben and blame Zhao Jingyun.

The Taifu can take what the Feng family has done, complain to the officials in private, and win more officials to join the Taifu's party.

In this way, it is a good deal to instigate dissatisfaction with the Feng family of foreign relatives without conflicting with the Feng family, but secretly strengthen oneself.

Zhao Luoyang said: "Since the Taifu sent people here, we can't waste it. They don't want to conflict with the Feng family, so we have to do the opposite."

Shi Jiu said: "It's the best arrangement." This is his sincere words, Xiao Jia is so smart, she understands her thinking better than anyone else.

……

What Huaizheng had to do was to chase the ducks, drive Zou Guangda out of the yard, chase and intercept him, and deliberately opened a hole to the dung truck where Cao Ben was hiding.

Cao had thought that this errand in Taozhou would not be easy, but he did not expect that he would end up hiding in a dung truck. After he became an official, he defected to the Taifu. His official career has been smooth. Although he is not an important minister in Beijing, he He is very young, and he will definitely have a place in the court in the future.

She is so lonely now because of the Feng family.

Cao Ben was resentful in his heart, and when he escaped this time, he would definitely find an opportunity to take revenge on the Feng family.Right now, he has to find ways to keep his dignity. After the outside is safe, he should get out of the dung truck quickly while others are not paying attention. In short, he can't be seen in such a mess.

Cao Ben covered his nose and waited tremblingly. Finally, the movement outside became smaller and smaller. Cao Ben couldn't bear it anymore, and carefully opened the lid of the excrement bucket, and he was going to come out from inside.

With the fresh wind blowing in, Cao Ben took a deep breath, as if he came alive all of a sudden.

It's finally over.

Cao Ben leaned out little by little, and finally stood up straight in the dung bucket, and then he slowly stepped out with one leg.Just as he pulled his other leg, a figure flashed out from behind a dung truck.

The two looked at each other with surprised expressions on their faces.

Zou Guangda almost dropped the bag in his hand on the ground, but soon he came back to his senses, and he recognized who the person in front of him was.

It was the Beijing official they had always wanted to kill.

Zou Guangda's gaze changed from astonishment to joy, like a person walking in the dark who found a ray of light, and he immediately grabbed it.

The outside is full of people from the government office and migrants. They are looking for his traces. Although he hid here, he knows that it will be a matter of time before he is discovered. Just now he was squatting there holding a large bag of belongings. Almost all thoughts are lost, he may die here, he carefully manages everything in Taozhou, and now everything will be in vain.

Just when Zou Guangda was in grief, he heard movement from a dung truck not far away. He thought that people from the government office were chasing him, but he didn't expect to see Cao Ben.

What a turn of events.

His last chance came.Zou Guangda dropped the burden in his hand, pulled out the short blade from his bosom, stepped forward a few steps and pressed Cao Ben's shoulder, and then pressed the sharp blade against Cao Ben's neck.

"Lord Cao," Zou Guangda said viciously, "Swords don't have eyes, so you'd better not move."

Cao Ben regretted it. He knew that there were bad people waiting for him outside. He would rather hide in the dung bucket, but it was too late to regret.

"As long as your lord can protect me out of the city," Zou Guang said, "I won't kill your lord."

Cao Ben wanted to struggle, but found that his whole body was trembling, especially the man's dagger sliced ​​through his flesh, and his heart seemed to jump out of his chest.

"Are you from the Feng family?" Cao Ben trembled, "Do you know what will happen if you kill me?"

"I know," Zou Guangda gritted his teeth, "My family members have been arrested by the government office, and I will die if I go out. I won't be afraid of what my lord says. So, my lord, why don't you take a rest."

Cao Ben understood: "You want to take me out of Taozhou? Where can you escape?"

Zou Guangdao: "As long as I leave Taozhou City, I will naturally have a way. Your Excellency is a Shangguan from Beijing, Zhao Jingyun will not disregard your life."

Cao Ben almost passed out. He thought that it would be miserable enough if he got feces and urine on his body, but he didn't know that the worst was yet to come.

"In broad daylight..."

Cao Ben was about to reprimand, but the person in front of him was obviously crazy: "Your Excellency, don't you believe me?"

As soon as Zou Guangda finished speaking, the dagger suddenly turned around and stabbed Cao Ben's shoulder fiercely.

When the severe pain came, Cao Ben's eyes widened, but Zou Guangda's hand tightly covered his mouth. The stench of feces and blood came immediately, and Cao Ben curled up like a quail in the rain. .

Cao Ben believed it. If he struggled, this person would definitely kill him.

"Let's go out now," Zou Guang said, "Does your lord know what to say?"

Cao Ben nodded hurriedly, he knew it.

"Then," said Zou Guang, "my lord, remember to do well."

Zou Guangda hugged Cao Ben tightly, and the two walked out slowly. As he expected, they soon ran into the Yamen who were looking for him outside.

Zou Guangda stopped in his tracks, Cao Ben looked at the yamen servants who were approaching, and immediately shouted: "Don't come here, don't come here, let him go out of the city, let him... go out of the city."
