From the ashes: Return of the General

Chapter 241 The Dead Veterans

Lu Qingchuan obediently stood up, sat down on the lower chair, and narrated what happened in Liangzhou these years.

At the same time, Mei Jingqiu was tied up and stuffed into the carriage in the woodshed of Prince Liang's mansion.Followed by Mrs. Ma, Wang Geng led a group of 20 people to Zhuangzi outside the capital.

Because his mother Gao didn't know about it, Mei Guangjian and others went to school and followed Nanny Song to learn the rules, so that they didn't see a ghost except Mrs. Ma and the person who sent them to Zhuangzi. , and no relatives sent him off.

The Zhuangzi they are going to today is called Xuliuzhuang. It is built on the mountain and covers an area of ​​about [-] mu.It is about two hours away from the capital, and if you hurry up, you can get there in one hour.

Mei Jingqiu has never been out of the capital since she was so old. When she heard the sound of soldiers questioning at the gate of the city, she was frightened, and the hairs all over her body stood on end.She wanted to call out for help but her mouth was blocked. Not to mention, Wang Geng pressed her Ya acupuncture point before leaving, so that she couldn't make any sound at all.

Her eyes widened involuntarily, and she was terrified and flustered, but Mrs. Ma ignored her at all.Not only did he ignore her, but he didn't even look at her. He lowered his head and fiddled with the bundle he brought out, as if there was gold in it.

There is no martial law in the city, and the soldiers guarding the city are only conducting routine interrogations.Therefore, they immediately let them go when they saw the plum blossom token of Prince Liang's Mansion.

After leaving the city, the speed of the carriage began to increase, and Wang Geng didn't care whether Mei Jingqiu was suffering, the carriage was bumpy, and he only drove at his own speed.

After starving all night without even drinking, Mei Jingqiu couldn't stand the bumps of the carriage.Coupled with the fear in her heart, her stomach was rolling, and she felt like vomiting within half an hour.

There was no food in her stomach, and her mouth was blocked again, so tightly stuffed that she wanted to vomit but couldn't vomit it out.Her white eyes rolled, her eyes trembled wildly, and when the wheels of the carriage hit the stone with a bang, she fell down straight like a corpse.

Mrs. Ma was also bumped and almost fell.Hugging the quilt with quick eyes and quick hands, he saw Mei Jingqiu who kept rolling her eyes.Feeling bad, as if she was foaming at the mouth and about to die at any time, Granny Ma hurriedly raised the curtain of the carriage and exclaimed, "Quick, stop quickly, something is wrong with Miss Fifth, she seems to have gone mad."

Mei Xin only said to let her endure hardships and discipline her well, to correct her crooked temperament, but she didn't say that she would kill her.Therefore, she just ignored it and ignored it, but she still can't ignore her, let alone let her die.

Hearing the sound, the coachman ignored it, and he didn't stop until Wang Geng pulled the rein.Looking inside, he saw that something was wrong with Mei Jingqiu, and his face was also very ugly. He said, "Drag her out."

Before guarding the door of Qiushui Pavilion, Mei Jingqiu scolded him so many harsh words that he hated her very much.

Getting off the horse and coming to the car, Wang Geng tore off the cloth strip from Mei Jingqiu's mouth, untied her acupuncture points and loosened the rope tied around her body, and carried her to the side of the road like a chicken and said: "Ma'am, give her some hot water to drink."

He let go of his hand and threw it directly to the side of the road. Wang Geng was not afraid of her running away, so he folded his arms around his chest and stepped back a foot away, then looked at her lazily.

After regaining her freedom, Mei Jingqiu couldn't bear it any longer, lying on the side of the road and vomited wildly, her stomach was about to come out.

Although the distance is not far, Mrs. Ma still brought hot water in the car, mainly because she is too old to drink cold water.Coupled with the cold weather, she can drink hot water to warm her body, so she poured Mei Jingqiu a big bowl of hot water without hesitation.

After delivering it in person, I took out the coarse cloth handkerchief I carried with me, handed it to her and said, "Wipe, drink some hot water. It's a bit hot, drink it slowly, don't burn your mouth."

Seeing Wanmei Jingqiu's rough workmanship and missing mouth, she instinctively refused, and opened her mouth to curse.Mrs. Ma hurried ahead of her and said: "It seems that you are not uncomfortable enough, if that is the case, then stop drinking, save..."

Before she finished speaking, Mei Jingqiu snatched the handkerchief from her hand.

After smelling it, it didn't seem to have any smell. She wiped her mouth and threw it on the ground, snatching the bowl away.Mrs. Ma didn't intend to deliberately make things difficult for her, she didn't obstruct her, but the water was a little hot, and the bowl was also a little hot, and she screamed as soon as she held the bowl.

Instinctively, she wanted to throw the bowl away, but at this moment, Mrs. Ma spoke again, and she said, "It's just this bowl of water, if it is knocked over, it will be gone."

After finishing speaking, she got up, and without even looking at her, Mrs. Ma got into the carriage.

If it was in the past, Mei Jingqiu would have thrown it away without saying a word, but that was the past.Right now she is really too thirsty, smoke is coming out of her throat, and the fire is burning.

Reluctant to throw it away, she could only continue to hold it, but it was too hot for her delicate skin and tender hands.Resisting the urge to throw it away, she raised her leg and placed the bowl on her lap.The clothes were not so hot, she held the bowl with both hands and began to sip and drink.

In fact, it means that she feels very hot because of her squeamishness. If she is replaced by old men like Wang Geng or Mei Xin, let alone screaming, she will not even frown.

Seeing her hopeless look, Wang Geng wanted to laugh, shook his head involuntarily and felt speechless.Different people have different fates, Mei Xin is obviously much more noble than her, but she lives like a rough old man.On the contrary, it was her, Miss Qianjin was not like Miss Qianjin, she was a commonplace person, but she chose to commit suicide, it was really hopeless.

The person acting as the coachman today is called Wang Eryin. According to him, his mother wanted silver, so he named their brother Dayin and Eryin.He is one of the best archers in the Mei family's army, he can shoot through Yang's arrows with a hundred steps, and he was not supposed to come here today, but Wang Geng called him, and he followed because he thought it was all right.

I really hate Mei Jingqiu, I feel that this little girl is too troublesome, her mouth is too vicious, and her heart is too vile, so Wang Eryin bumped Wang Geng with his elbow and said, "Whenever she walks like this, the Major General will order you tonight." Let’s talk about eating pots.”

Eating a hot pot is the best way to keep warm in cold weather. The most important thing is that he is not on duty tonight, so he can drink some wine.If you can't make it back before dinner, you'll miss it. You can't eat mutton twice a year, let alone a mutton pot. If you miss this time, you can only eat it again in a monkey year.

Wang Geng is now in charge of purchasing, and he bought all five big fat sheep today, how can he forget to eat mutton pot tonight.However, it's impossible for Mei Jingqiu to vomit like this and not even give her time to drink her saliva.So, he said, "You did it on purpose, right?"

It was not the first time for Wang Eryin to drive a carriage, and he also drove a carriage for Mei Xin on the way from Liangzhou to the capital, it was very stable.But he just saw that this guy was walking on a bumpy road, deliberately bumping it.
