History of Empress Dowager Development

Chapter 92

After Qin Zhen was injured, she needed someone to take care of her. Lin Lang, a young girl, couldn't help much, so Wu Shi and Qin Zhen rode together, while Lin Lang and Mei Shi rode in a carriage.Mrs. Mei is also a lady from a famous family. Her father is a judge in Suizhou. She is similar to Shen Yurong in temperament. She usually doesn't talk much. She looks like a stuffed gourd, but she is very appropriate when doing things. Therefore, Mrs. Qin and Mrs. Wu both like it. .

Lin Lang hadn't met that foreign cousin a few times, but she had a strong relationship with Mei Shi.

The Mei family is also a book lover, and the collection of books is very popular in Suizhou, and her natal family has a huge library.Now that she is married to her husband's house, although she can read books from time to time, after all, she is not as free as being at home. As a daughter-in-law, she has to abide by the rules. It is a pity that she can't go to the exposed book meeting a few days ago.

Anyone who loves books has admiration for those book buildings in the imperial city. After all, the collections are all famous works of the past dynasties, and they are treasures at the feet of the emperor and in the hands of bachelors. It is difficult for ordinary people to get close to them in their lifetime.Born in Suizhou, Mrs. Mei has lived in the south of the Yangtze River for 20 years and has never been to the capital. She admires the Fourth Hall of the Imperial City very much. Knowing that Lin Lang had been to the Zhaowen Hall, she inevitably asked about the situation there.

She seldom had the style of comparison in her body, and she was very calm about her own merits. Lin Lang liked it in her heart, so she told her about the situation of several libraries in the imperial city.

From Zhuangzi to the official road, the hills are undulating, and the horse-drawn carriage takes a winding path, because the foot of the mountain is far away from human habitation, and the outside is full of birdsong and the rustling of leaves blown by the wind, which is quite meaningful.

Lin Lang was talking happily, when the carriage stopped suddenly, and the coachman scolded: "Who dares to block the road here, don't you know whose carriage it is!"

"It doesn't matter whose carriage you are in, leave all your things behind!" A rough voice came to her ears, Lin Lang was startled, and suddenly understood.She wanted to open the curtain to take a look, but Mei Shi had already stretched his arms to protect her behind, and said in a low voice: "Don't make a sound, it might be bandits." The carriage of the two of them walked in the front, accompanied by the mother-in-law and servant They were all in the back, and now the villains were blocking the way, and those servants were not willing to let them succeed, so they all surrounded them.

Lin Lang secretly lifted a corner of the curtain, only to see a dozen masked and thick men standing on the small slope nearby, all holding machetes in their hands.In comparison, the servants on Linlang's side are much weaker.

Huaiyang City has been peaceful for a long time, even though bandits have occasionally appeared nearby in the past two years, but there are two big men, Prince Rui and Jiedu Envoy, no one dares to make a mistake, and there have never been any bandits.Although the servants Wu brought with him when he went out were capable, they were only used for ostentation. They were more than enough to deal with one or two petty thieves, but not so much against bandits with knives.

The bandit in the lead obviously had no patience. Seeing the servants surrounding him, he immediately asked someone to take it and hacked two of them.The rest of the people lingered with bare hands, and when Wu was in the car behind saying nothing, Mei said in a low voice, "What do you want?"

"All the gold, silver and treasures are left behind, as well as the beauties in the car..." The man's voice gradually approached, and the tip of the knife raised the curtain of the car, revealing a face full of beards.

Lin Lang didn't recognize him, but she could roughly guess his background.Who dared to stop the Zhu family's carriage and rob them in broad daylight, who is behind these people still don't understand?Although she was only a ten-year-old girl, she had experienced life and death, she was still calm at the moment, and secretly took note of the man's appearance.

But the man's knife tip was approaching slowly, slicing across Lin Lang's cheek coldly, "Oh, there is such a beautiful little girl." His eyes shone undisguisedly, and that wretched expression was disgusting.Mei-shi didn't care about her ladylike appearance anymore, and immediately wanted to protect Linlang, "Don't touch her!"

The big man laughed and said: "Don't be impatient, I have a share. You come to be my wife in the village, and this little girl will be raised by my son. In the future, I will pick up ashes, too..." He stretched out his right arm suddenly, using all his strength He grabbed Lin Lang's shoulders and pulled her out.

Lin Lang is young and light, and Mei is a housewife, how can she match his strength?With just one breath, the man pulled Lin Lang to the door of the car.A dagger suddenly protruded from the slanting stab, and stabbed at the strong man's wrist with a cold light. The strong man was caught off guard, his wrist was scratched by the dagger, and he retreated quickly.Jinxiu stood in front of Linlang and said loudly, "Who dares to touch my girl!"

"Oh, and Lianjiazi with me!" The burly man obviously didn't pay attention to Jinxiu, he rushed over to catch Linlang, Jinxiu swung his sword to block, and his figure moved like a monkey, forcing the burly man not to get close .

Lin Lang took advantage of this time to see the situation clearly. There were a total of twelve people blocking the way, most of whom were dressed in rough clothes and short clothes, except for a thin man behind him who was wearing a strong suit that is common in the north. Much colder.

The strong man who wanted to catch Linlang couldn't fight for a long time, and was stabbed several times by Jinxiu instead.The thin man behind was very impatient, and said coldly: "Useless thing!" Suddenly he jumped up and went straight to Jinxiu, he could see kungfu in that leap, light and fast, his skill must be better than Jinxiu.

Sure enough, when Jinxiu met him, she couldn't use her skills, and she couldn't cope with it.The brawny man was annoyed at the loss just now, seeing that Lin Lang was alone, he reached out to catch her again, now Lin Lang really panicked and moved in hastily.

Wu Shi was startled a long time ago. Seeing that these people wanted both money and sex, and the people she led were no match at all, she hurriedly ordered people to run nearby for help.Seeing this, a famous bandit swung the big knife in his hand at the servant, cutting him to the ground instantly.

These servants are also temperamental, knowing that they are no match for each other, but they are unwilling to watch their master being humiliated, so they yelled and rushed towards these bandits, vowing to protect the master.

Lin Lang's carriage was surrounded by two strong men, one of them dragged Mrs. Mei out, while the other grabbed Lin Lang's arm with that foul hand and dragged her out.Lin Lang struggled violently in panic, and suddenly a knife flashed in front of her eyes, accompanied by the blunt sound of the sharp blade chopping bones, a blood mist rose, and the strong man's arm was cut off at the root, and fell into the carriage.

The blood instantly stained the soft carpet in the car. Seeing the stinky hand lying beside him with spread fingers, Lin Lang screamed in fright.

The situation outside changed in an instant, Cui Shisan's familiar figure rushed towards the thin man and fought with him.Someone rushed over not far away, and in the blink of an eye, he had arrived in front of Lin Lang. Xu Lang swung the blood-stained severed arm out of the car with a wave of his sleeve, stretched out his arms to hug Lin Lang, and commanded with one arm, "Catch someone alive!"
