Dressed as the best old lady in the famine years, I suddenly became rich

Chapter 202 Chen Hu colludes with bandits
It is unrealistic for a group of people to go back. There are too many people and the target is too big. They may be discovered by the bandits as soon as they return.

Ke Muqing could change her avatar, go back alone, and buy things from the mall without having to explain to anyone, so it was better for Yang Yi and the others to follow her than to act alone.

And if she takes a few of Yang Yi's brothers away, the remaining ones may not be able to escape if they encounter danger again.

"How can you let mother go alone?" Yang Jiye got up from the ground, "I will go with mother!"

"What the hell!" Ke Xiucai couldn't help but cursed, "Are you going to hold your mother back?"

Ke Xiucai wanted to say that he and Ke Muqing would go, but when he thought that his old arms and legs would be a hindrance, he pushed back the idea.

"Sister-in-law, Master and I will go with you to find Cheng Zhuo." Yang Sanqing came out and said, "Master came to Zhuang County when he was young and is familiar with the roads in Zhuang County. Yang Yi and the others stayed to protect everyone, and Master and I followed. Sister-in-law, this arrangement is the most suitable."

"Okay." Ke Muqing realized that he didn't know the way after Yang Sanqing reminded him.

Ke Muqing was now extremely unhappy with Yang Jiye, a loser, so he bypassed her and went directly to Feng Ying to explain the matter.

"This is the key to a small box in my carriage. In addition to copper coins and broken silver, there is also gold. I don't know what the situation in Long County is now. You must not reveal your wealth, but you must not be reluctant to spend money when necessary."

"You are the eldest daughter-in-law of the family. If my mother is not here, you have to take charge of the house. There are a lot of things in the box. You can use it as you like."

Feng Ying nodded with tears in her eyes, "Mom, you must be careful along the way."

"I know." Ke Muqing patted Feng Ying on the shoulder, "When you get to Long County, find a suitable place to stay and wait for me. Leave me passwords along the way. We will follow the passwords you left to find you."

"Okay, let's wait for you, mother, to come back to us with Cheng Zhuo." Feng Ying agreed.

"Mom, what should I do with the child?" Zheng Qiu Shuang asked, pointing to the child who was still crying over there.

"We are not suitable to bring a child now, so you take the child first. After all, it was that idiot Jiye who brought him here. We have the responsibility to help him take care of the child. Let's go back and look for the child. family.”

Ke Muqing also hopes that if Yang Chengzhuo stays with that family of refugees, those people can help her take care of Yang Chengzhuo.

After explaining things to his two daughters-in-law, Ke Muqing went to talk to Ke Xiucai and left some things for Ke Xiucai. Then he and Master Yang Sanqing took their things with them. After the horses had rested enough, the three of them rode three horses. Turned back.

It was getting dark and the horse's speed slowed down a lot. The road here was not like the road in Chen County. It was wide and flat. It took two hours for the three of them to return to the boundary of Zhuang County.

There was a three-way intersection ahead. Ke Muqing stopped and heard Chen Changtai say, "The road on the left."

Ke Muqing waved his whip and was about to move forward, but Yang Sanqing suddenly rode in front of Ke Muqing and then shouted towards the mountain on the side, "Who! Hide and come out if you can!"

Following Yang Sanqing's words, there was indeed a faint sound from the other side of the mountain.

The three of them immediately raised their swords, and then saw Wang Jianzhong crawling out of the grass, "Mom, it's me."

"Master Wang Cha? Are you the only one?" Ke Muqing and the other three hurriedly dismounted upon seeing this. Chen Changtai and Yang Sanqing stepped forward first, holding Wang Jianzhong out of the grass.

"I was seriously injured. Zheng Hui and Yin Tang hid me here and then rode their horses to lure the bandits elsewhere. I haven't waited for them to come back until now."

"Have you seen our child Cheng Zhuo?" Ke Muqing asked hurriedly. "When we were leaving, we mistakenly took the refugee's child as Cheng Zhuo's child and carried it into the carriage. Cheng Zhuo's child was left there." Wang Jianzhong shook his head slightly. , "I'm sorry, ma'am, I didn't notice that the bandits were chasing us, nor did they chase the refugees. I think if the child had fallen there, he would still be waiting for you nearby."

"What's going on with these bandits?" Ke Muqing asked, "You only escort prisoners in exile. Why did those bandits attack you?"

This is not in line with common sense, because these government officials and prisoners have no money, and these are repeat offenders of the imperial court. Wang Jianzhong is also an official of the imperial court. If there is not enough profit, the bandits will never attack Wang Jianzhong and his group.

"Chen Hu and the others colluded with the bandits!" Wang Jianzhong vomited a large mouthful of blood. "Chen Hu and the others also told the bandits about the aunt and her group, so after we broke out of the siege, we rushed to deliver a message to the aunt. Unexpectedly, There are so many bandits, but they can still find so many people to chase a few of us."

"Many of our brothers have died, Chen Hu..." Wang Jianzhong gritted his teeth, "I will cut his body into thousands of pieces! Let their heads be used to pay homage to our dead brothers!"

Ke Muqing and Yang Sanqing looked at each other with the same expression on their faces.

What kind of bandits are they? I'm afraid they're official bandits!

"Auntie, please leave me alone and go find the child first." Wang Jianzhong covered his chest and coughed in a low voice. This cough produced another large mouthful of blood.

Under Wang Jianzhong's violent cough, the two horses came this way.

Hearing the movement here, the person on the horse asked tentatively, "Boss, is it you?"

It's Yin Tang!
"Yin Tang, it's us!" Ke Muqing responded hurriedly.

"Sister!" Yin Tang heard Ke Muqing's voice and hurriedly accelerated the horse to come in the direction of the few people.

When they got closer, they could clearly see what was going on with the two horses coming by the light of the torches.

Yin Tang was riding a horse, and there was a person lying on the horse in front of him. Looking at the clothes, it was Zheng Hui.

Yin Tang's hand was also holding another horse's horse, and two other people were lying on the horse's back.

Yin Tang tied these two people to the horse's back with vines. The only thing that could be brought back in this way were corpses.

Ke Muqing recognized him. One was a colleague from Yin Tang, and the other was a chai who came from the capital with Wang Jianzhong and others.

"What's wrong with Zheng Hui?" Wang Jianzhong walked towards Yin Tang, reaching out to feel Zheng Hui's breath. Although the breath was weak, he still had some energy.

He probed the breathing of the other two with some hope.

Both of their bodies felt cold.

Wang Jianzhong patted the two dead men, his voice choked with sobs, "The boss will definitely avenge you."

"Those bandits were chasing us all the way, so the four of us had no choice but to run separately. Zheng Hui and I encountered a river, and we tried our best to save our lives by jumping into the river. Zheng Hui was seriously injured and choked after jumping into the river. I dragged him to the shore and squeezed the water out of his stomach. I don’t know what happened to him.”

After saying this, Yin Tang asked Ke Muqing, "Sister, how are you doing? Is anyone injured?"
