Hard to be a good wife

Tang Yue sharply saw a child hiding behind a tree not far away, and the child looked eagerly at his food with a face.

What kind of look is that?Tang Yue swore that he had never longed for something so much in his two lifetimes.

Tang Yue's heart trembled, he looked left and right, and secretly waved at the child, who hesitated for a moment before coming out from behind the tree trunk, approaching cautiously step by step.

It was only then that Tang Yue saw the child's appearance clearly. He was skinny and skinny, and he was completely dark. At first glance, he thought he was an African refugee.

Tang Yue handed him the rest of his food, and the other party stared at him for a while, stretched out his hands tentatively, stretched halfway, then retracted, like the habit of cats.

"Take it, there's only these." Tang Yue sighed, and directly stuffed half of the pancake into his arms.

The child twitched his nose and showed a satisfied and grateful smile, then quickly fled back to the village, his hands tightly protecting the food in his arms.

Tang Yue stared at his disappearing back for a long time, and when he came back to his senses, he realized that there was half a pancake in front of him, and the person who gave him food was looking down at the map in his hand.

"Thank you." Tang Yue was not polite, thanked him and continued to eat.

Since he came to this world, he insisted on eating even the most unpalatable food. When people are facing the threat of hunger, they don't even have the right to be picky eaters.

After eating, Tang Yue leaned in front of Wang Zizhao and glanced at the map in his hand. I have to say that the map of this era is so simple that ordinary people can't understand it.

Wang Zizhao pointed to a place that looked like a mountain and a rock and said, "It is speculated that the bandit village is most likely to be in this location."

"Then where are we now?" Tang Yue asked.

Wang Zizhao moved back along a route, and clicked on a certain location, "Here, it only takes an hour to reach that mountain."

"Ahem..." Zhao Sanlang, who was stretching his ears to eavesdrop, choked on the water, then wiped his mouth indiscriminately, stood up and went to the side to do warm-up exercises.

One hour ah, another hour later he will fight desperately with others, what should I do if I am so nervous?

Zhao Sanlang waved his arms and legs indiscriminately a few times, and winked at Pingshun, and the two of them hooked up shoulder to shoulder to discuss some conspiracy.

Tang Yue couldn't laugh or cry, if the second generation of officials had this kind of virtue, the country would not be able to mess up if they wanted to, it was so friendly.

"Let's go..." Hu Jinpeng gave an order, and the team packed up and continued to move forward.

Before taking three steps, someone ran out from the village, shouting as he ran, "My lord...don't..."

When Tang Yue turned his head, he saw a white-haired old man limping towards him leaning on a tree branch, followed by the child he had seen just now.

"My lord, you can't go any further..."

"Old man, what do you mean by that?" Hu Jinpeng sat on the horseback, looking down at the old and the young.

The two of them knelt on the ground with a plop and kowtowed their heads three times, "My lord, there are bandits in front of them, and they kill people without blinking an eye. I dare not repay you for my favor."

Hu Jinpeng glanced at Wang Zizhao, who nodded, and continued to ask: "Does the old man know where the bandit is hiding?"

"This..." The old man hesitated, lying on the ground tremblingly.

Tang Yue walked over, bent down to help the two people up, the child smiled when he saw him, and said something in dialect while pulling the old man's tattered clothes.

The old man immediately wanted to kneel down to Tang Yue, who was as big as a bull and held him tightly, "Master, if you know where those thieves are hiding, please tell us, we are here to suppress the bandits .”

"No...you can't..." The old man waved his hands again and again, and said frivolously, "They have a lot of people, and they have the government as their backer. If you go, you will die."

"..." Tang Yue was startled, and quickly looked at Wang Zizhao. These words contained too much gold.

Wang Zizhao raised his hands, and the four bearers hurriedly landed the sedan chair firmly. He walked over with his hands behind his back, and asked with a serious face, "Does the old man know how many bandits there are? Why do you say they have the government as their backer?"

Wang Zizhao's demeanor was obviously several grades higher, and he was serious, not as approachable as Tang Yue at all.

The old man was so frightened that he bent over. If Tang Yue hadn't supported him, he would have knelt down again.

Tang Yue really wanted to say that these kneeling etiquette can be avoided if possible, and talking well can save some time.

"Young master, if this old man says something he shouldn't say today, our village will not be spared tomorrow."

"This... Young Master will protect you well. How many people are there in your village? Now you can pack up your things and retreat eastward. When you arrive in Yuxin City, someone will arrange everything for you."

Wang Zizhao called for a personal guard, "He is the son of the Lord of Yuxin City, you can rest assured."

Tang Yue opened his mouth wide and looked at the guard. He didn't expect that Wang Zizhao would randomly pull out a bodyguard, and they were all the sons of the city lord!

He used to joke around with these guards before, and felt that he was too condescending and condescending to be too approachable, but he didn't expect that it was because they gave him face, no, it was because of Wang Zizhao's face that he was willing to talk to him.

After hearing this, the old man knelt down again, "Thank you for your kindness, young master. On behalf of the villagers, I thank you for your great kindness."

"Get up and tell me what you know now."

"Here." The old man stood up, bowed his waist and held his chest and said, "These thieves were originally homeless refugees nearby, numbering more than 100 people. At first, they only robbed the money and goods of passing merchants. Hurt.

But a year ago, these bandits changed their leader. This man is vicious, not only stealing money but also killing people. After his notoriety spread, there were fewer businessmen coming and going, so he made an idea of ​​a nearby village.

You can see that our village is dying like this now. Although I didn’t have enough food and clothes to keep warm, my family was reunited and life was still going on.

Ever since the thief visited our village, he took away all the young men and women, and there was no food or money left. We, the old, the weak, the sick, and the disabled were useless to them, so we survived.

I heard that the thief now has thousands of strong soldiers under his command. A few days ago, my little boy sneaked back and was wounded all over. He told us to leave here as soon as possible. These people will be taken to mine and work for him. "

"The government didn't take care of it?" Tang Yue felt a little inconceivable. How could the government ignore such a group of criminals running around on their own territory?

"I heard that the thief bought the deputy city lord of Qinyang City, so they have been living in peace, but a few days ago, for some reason, the government sent troops to suppress the bandits, but the whole army was wiped out. The reason is that the thief's lair is not so easy to suppress."

Wang Zizhao frowned slightly, and asked Hu Jinpeng, "How did you write the excerpts played in Qinyang City?"

"It is only said that there are hundreds of bandits outside the city, who only rob the passing merchants. Due to the limited force in the city, several attempts to encircle and suppress them have failed, so I asked for support."

Tang Yue was a little dizzy, "If it's the deputy city lord who colluded with those people, will the city lord keep silent?"

"Xiao Lang doesn't know that the city lord of Qinyang City is a ten-year-old boy, and the deputy city lord makes decisions on all matters in the city." Hu Jinpeng explained to him.

"What? How did a ten-year-old brat become the city lord?" Tang Yue thought to himself, "You can't even have the city lord as your father's job, right?"

The answer is really like this, the lord of Qinyang City is a loyal and brave marquis who was proclaimed by the king, and can be followed for three generations. After the old lord died, his son succeeded to the throne, and after the son died, the grandson inherited the family business.

That kid was still a milk baby in his arms when he became the city lord. He was typically born with a golden key in his mouth, and not long after he was born, he gained the status and wealth that others could not obtain through hard work in a lifetime.

Tang Yue secretly sighed for a while, and listened to Hu Jinpeng's analysis: "Maybe it's because the power of those thieves developed too fast, and the leader of the thieves was ambitious and violated the interests of the deputy city lord of Qinyang City. The knives face each other.

And the deputy city lord suddenly realized that the thief is not what he used to be, and he can no longer be wiped out with his fingers, so he had to report the matter to the court and ask for support. "

Tang Yue wanted to applaud after hearing this, Brother Hu's analysis is very good, all in all, a gangster organization attached to a certain high-ranking official has become more and more powerful and has more and more people, so he wants to get rid of that high-ranking official The control of the two sides collapsed, the underworld rose up, and they won, so the high official was in a hurry.

What should I do if I can't figure it out?Find organizations and countries!That's why they came out to suppress the bandits.

It really fulfilled that sentence: If you don't die, you won't die!

In Tang Yue's view, the deputy city lord was completely to blame for his own death, and he deserved his death.
