Value peace

Chapter 178

It turned out that as soon as the news of Liu Youcheng's accident reached Liu's family, the Liang family left a pair of children and rushed to Yanzhou to rescue her husband despite Liu Sanduo's stop.

This Liang family, named Zhangzhu, was originally the only daughter of a merchant from a small oil shop in Shiban Town. Her father loved her like a treasure, and raised her as a boy since she was a child. Caizi, at the age of 12, started to help his father manage the accounts of the oil workshop. He was very capable, so he could not be left or right.Only then did Liang's father get anxious and asked his old friend Liu Sanduo for help.Others may think that girls are too capable, but Liu Sanduo likes capable girls the most.After searching among several unmarried nephews, he fell in love with Liu Youcheng, who was two years younger than Liang Zhangzhu, and became the matchmaker.After the two got married, although they got together less often and separated more, Liang Zhangzhu was smart and capable. Inside and outside the house, there was a relationship between people, brothers and sisters, and they were all harmonious and beautiful. The two were also very affectionate.

This time when I heard that something happened to Liu Youcheng, Liang Zhangzhu couldn't sit still no matter what.

Liu Sanduo also knew Liang Zhangzhu's temperament, and she was a capable person. Sometimes, it was more convenient for women's relatives to come forward than men, so he just thought about it for a while, and asked Ding Cuiniang to escort her to the north.

It was late summer when they rushed to Yanzhou, and the commander-in-chief of the Northwest Army Battalion stationed in Yanzhou had already released Liu Youcheng in a handwritten letter from Qi Maosheng.

Because the smuggling case committed by Liu Youcheng involved the Yanjun military, the Yanjun side didn't want his life, but just took the goods, put him in prison and tortured him to extract a confession, and wanted to find out why from him.Liu Youcheng is also a shrewd person, knowing that once he opens his mouth, the generals in Yandi who opened the door for him will be in danger of their lives. At that time, the reputation of the Liu family will be ruined, and they will not even think about walking in Yandi in the future. up.In addition, he was still counting on his brother to find a way to save himself from danger, so no matter how tortured he was, he just kept silent.After coming and going, even the torturers had a little respect for him, and they saved a little sympathy at the beginning, so that they could drag Qi Hao's handwriting to Yanzhou.

When the husband and wife met, Liang Zhangzhu saw Liu Youcheng, who looked haggard, bruised and bruised, and was not a human being, so naturally he couldn't make a sound.

Instead, Liu Youcheng comforted his wife: "If you survive a catastrophe, there will be future blessings."

His injuries were too serious, so Liang Zhangzhu asked Liu Youcheng if he could recuperate in Yanzhou first, and return to Jiangnan after the spring weather warmed up.

Liu Youcheng thought to himself, since his family has taken care of the Qi family, and during the time he was imprisoned in Yanzhou, he also had some sympathy with the soldiers who were interrogating him in the Northwest Camp, so why not take advantage of the opportunity of recuperation, and These people wander around, maybe they can find a way out.

Immediately he made a decision, and the couple rented a house in Yanzhou with Ding Cuie to live. Liu Youcheng wrote a letter to send back to Shiban Town, telling Liu Sanduo his plan.When Liu Sanduo received his letter, he couldn't help praising him again and again, but he felt sorry for Liu Zuocheng. He was worried that something might happen to his younger brother, so he took the initiative to invite Ying to come to Yandi to discuss business with Qi Hao. .

As a result, at the end of September, the battle in Jiang Zhongqun was in full swing, not only was Liu Zuocheng's schedule postponed, but communication with the Liu family became extremely difficult.

The last time he received a letter from the patriarch, Liu Sanduo repeatedly urged him to pay attention to Qi Hao's movements.In particular, pay attention to whether he takes wives and concubines.As for why, the wording in the letter is also vague, and I didn't make it very clear.

Now that Liu Youcheng had obtained the approval letter from the Patriarch, he settled down in Yanzhou with peace of mind.

He was a straightforward person, and from winter to spring, he really got to know Qi Hao's third cousin, Qi Jiang's concubine-loving brother, Wang Baoquan, through that little soldier.After some socializing, Liu and Wang decided to meet in Yongzhou in May, and Wang Baoquan would introduce Qi Jiang to him.

At the end of April, Liu Youcheng took Liang Zhangzhu and Ding Cuiniang to Yongzhou.

Qi Jiang was busy with Qi Yuzhi's marriage at that time, so Wang Baoquan didn't dare to say anything in front of him, but he was afraid of losing face in front of Liu Youcheng, so he dragged Liu Youcheng: "My brother-in-law said, wait until the marriage of the eldest young master of the Qi family is finished." Say it again."

Liu Youcheng remembered what the Patriarch entrusted.He is a shrewd person, so naturally he would not fully believe in Wang Baoquan, so he stayed in the biggest inn in Yongzhou City, and sent the servants around him to inquire about it.The young servant always inquired around Qi's mansion, and wrote back to Liu Zuocheng every day.Liu Zuocheng knew that Qi Hao had married a girl from the Gu family in Tianshui, and that Qi Jiang was also busy with the marriage of Qi Yuzhi, the young master of the Qi family, just as Wang Baoquan said, so he relaxed and waited.

After waiting for a few more days, seeing that there was still no reply, and seeing the weather was fine, thinking of the hardships Liang Zhangzhu had suffered because of himself during this period, he felt a little ashamed. , took Liang Zhangzhu to the largest Guangming Temple in Yandi to relax.

As soon as a few people reached the foot of the Guangming Temple, they were stopped, and no matter what Liu Youcheng said, they would not let them go.

Liu Youcheng suddenly thought of the movement of the Qi Mansion these days, wondering if the female family members of the Qi Mansion came here to offer incense.With a thought in his heart, he took some yellow and white things to order, and then the Taoist whispered: "Today we have noble people here, so it is inconvenient to receive you."

Liu Youcheng said again, but the Taoist priest didn't say anything again.

He was overjoyed, so he took Liang Zhangzhu, Ding Cuiniang and a few followers up the mountain from the Wudao jungle next to the mountain gate, ready to try his luck.

After walking all afternoon, I finally arrived at the back mountain of Guangming Temple, but I was already thirsty and tired.

Seeing her husband sweating profusely, Liang Zhangzhu felt sorry for him recovering from a serious illness, so she asked Ding Cuiniang to go and see what was going on first, to see if someone really came.If so, it’s never too late to make plans.

Liu Youcheng was indeed tired, and thinking of Ding Cuiniang's good skills, he didn't object.

As a result, as soon as Ding Cuiniang walked out of the forest, she met Qi Maosheng's followers, and after a few encounters, she was stabbed.

Not only that, but she also discovered Gu Xiyan who was supposed to marry Zuo Xiaoyu... She has been walking in the rivers and lakes for a long time. Her care, and thinking of the news that Liu Youcheng and his party were waiting for her in the forest, she couldn't help feeling anxious.

It doesn't matter if she dies, if Qi Maosheng's people find out that she still has companions, what will happen... She insisted on going down the mountain alone to lure Qi Maosheng's people away, but she ran into someone who hadn't seen her for a long time and came looking for her Leung's...

Liang Zhangzhu was originally Liu Youcheng's virtuous helper. Liu Youcheng not only recognized but also admired his wife's abilities, so he did not hide anything about the Liu family from her.

In this situation, she is well aware that it is impossible for her to get away... You Cheng is still waiting for them in the forest... Ding Cuiniang actually went down the mountain instead of going to the forest to seek help from them. The meaning of pawns to be handsome...

Thinking of this, Liang Zhangzhu took a deep breath, the corners of his mouth slightly curved, he raised his head, and smiled kindly at Gu Xiyan: "Since madam knows my aunt, she is no outsider. As the saying goes After a long drought, there is sweet rain, and when we encounter an old acquaintance in a foreign land. Now that we have encountered such a dangerous situation, we have to rely on Madam to take care of everything."

Seeing that she didn't pursue her relationship with Liu Caixia, Gu Xiyan showed a few surprises on her face, and heard her speak politely, and hurriedly said: "Grandma Twelve doesn't need to be polite, if you can do it, you must do your best."

Liang Zhangzhu saluted Qi Maosheng respectfully again.

Qi Maosheng lifted his chin lightly, as a return of the gift.

Gu Xiyan said with concern: "I don't know where your entourage is, so you might as well send someone to check it out."

Liang Zhangzhu smiled unabated, and said: "My master came to Yongzhou to do business. I was idle and bored in the inn, thinking that Cui'e's skill would be good, and she would protect me from the rush, so I just hired a car temporarily and didn't take it with me. The family members are going out. It’s the same when we are settled down, and then we send someone to the inn to let us know.”

Gu Xiyan nodded, and wanted to exchange some pleasantries with Liang Zhangzhu, but Qi Maosheng's entourage brought two Taoist priests to carry a door panel, so the conversation stopped naturally.

They carried Ding Cuiniang to the door, and Liang Zhangzhu urged the Taoist priest to quickly carry her to the Guangming Temple.

What she is most afraid of now is to bring Liu Youcheng over.

It may be that the attendants had already given orders, so the Taoist priest directly carried Ding Cuiniang to a side room a little far away from the main hall.

Qi Maosheng whispered in Gu Xiyan's ear: "I have ordered someone to invite the doctor, and you can't help here. We have to rush back to the city..."

Gu Xiyan thought, yes, she said a few more polite words to Mrs. Liang, left a follower to take care of them, and then boarded the carriage with Maosheng.

When the carriage drove out of Guangming Temple, the sky had already darkened, the four corners of the roof were raised high, and red lanterns were hung, reflecting Gu Xi's beautiful face like a flower.

She remembered the scene when she came out of Gu's house dressed as a dowry maid.

I was afraid that I would be discovered by Mr. Gu if I left too early, and I was afraid that I would not be able to get out after entering the door of Zuo's house... Where is Ridge Island? Reunited with himself, whether Mo Ju can successfully get the guide, how much Duan Yingluo has true feelings for him, no one knows... The future is so bleak, and the uneasy heart is like a lamp shaking in the air ... Mrs. Gu chased her out, her pale face was as calm as death, and she secretly stuffed an oriental pearl the size of a pigeon egg into her...

The corners of Gu Xiyan's eyes were moist, and tears rolled down like pearls.

No matter how bad the relationship is, they are still father and daughter after all!
Qi Maosheng thought she had only accepted Gu Baozhang's death now, so he quickly hugged her in his arms and murmured to comfort her: "Don't cry, don't cry, I will treat you well for the rest of my life..."

Gu Xiyan shook her head, sobbing and talking about her fear, and the missing Dongzhu.

Qi Maosheng Erran.

He had never heard Gu Xiyan say these things, those uneasiness, those bewilderment, those fears...
