bastard returns

Whether it's the buyers, they are all classified as thieves and punished. This trick is indeed effective. After the legislation, all the merchants who receive the goods begin to pay attention to the source of the goods. Changed hands, naturally most of them changed hands.

But there are still some river pirates who are not affected by the law. Not only did they not give up, but they worked harder because their competitors quit the industry. It’s not that they are not afraid of the law, but that they have a way to ignore the law. In other words In other words, as long as there is a backer behind the river pirates, no matter how strict the law is, they still have channels to sell the stolen things.

083 The Wrath of the Sea

"Do you know why the fields in Xianghe Town can't produce food? The mystery is here." Huyan Yuanchen said: "The things these river robbers steal from the waterway, whether it's jewelry, food, or porcelain, as long as their backers Stable, there is always a market, but there is one thing, no matter how big a backer they have, it is a hot potato in their hands."

Ning Yuan immediately understood, "You mean salt?"

"Salt merchants have always been called imperial merchants, and have always been a major economic lifeline valued by the royal family. Whether it is in your country or ours, selling illegal salt is a serious crime. If they find that the stolen boxes contain salt, Even if there is a backing, these river pirates will not take great risks to sell them out, they can only dispose of them nearby." Huyan Yuanchen pointed to the other side of the mountainside, "There is a mountain stream not far from here, they will Pour all the stolen salt into a mountain stream, and the lower reaches of that mountain stream happen to be connected to the canal used to irrigate fields in Xianghe Town."

Ning Yuan was puzzled and said, "But the first thing I checked was the water source, and the water in the irrigation canal is obviously normal."

"That's because you inspect during the day, but these people usually process things in the middle of the night. When you come to inspect the next day, the salt has already soaked into the field along the canal, so the crops can't grow. There is no problem with the water quality, do you understand?"

Ning Yuan thought about it carefully, the fact is indeed the case. He usually investigates during the day, but the water is flowing. If there is really a lot of salt flowing into the field along the canal every night, then no matter how much he investigates during the day , there is no possible result.

It turns out that the mystery is here.

"There is one more thing, I think you should be very interested to hear." Huyan Yuanchen said again: "The gang of river robbers will meet with people from Jiangzhou City on a regular basis. Do you know who the contact person is?"

"It's from our Ning Mansion." Ning Yuan said it without thinking.

Huyan Yuanchen was taken aback, "Why do you..."

Ning Yuan didn't speak, but felt that a big knot that had been brooding in his heart was finally untied.

The person who protects these river robbers must be Da Furen Wuyu.The eldest lady Yan's natal family is originally a family of rivers and lakes, and has always been in contact with green forests and the like. The eldest lady spends a lot of money to maintain her lavish expenses, and if she or her family is used as a protective umbrella for river pirates, helping them sell If it is the goods, this kind of business without capital and huge profits can naturally be turned into countless silver taels and sent to her.

Just looking at the goods on those carriages, there are several boxes of gold and silver wares alone, presumably these river robbers are quite experienced, all they robbed were the ships of the imperial merchants, and the things they stole were priceless Treasures.

"So your whereabouts have been erratic these days, are you following these people? How did you find them?" After finally understanding the truth, Ning Yuan came to his senses, and while his grateful colleagues to Huyan Yuanchen, he couldn't help but feel sorry for him as well. Motivation is somewhat curious.

"I'm just doing it wrong." Huyan Yuanchen rubbed his nose complacently, "I see that you have been worrying about the crops these days, and you are idle on weekdays anyway, so you want to help. Go to bed early and get up early, but I am a night owl. One night I couldn’t sleep, so I went to swim in the creek upstream of the canal. It turned out that the sweet and delicious stream during the day was actually salty at night, so I followed the waterway to find it. here."

Not only that, you also helped me catch a big handle of the eldest lady.Ning Yuan praised in his heart, but he didn't say it out, but he couldn't hide the joy in his heart. If he didn't have a calm mind, he might hug Huyan Yuanchen's ashen face and kiss him.

After discovering the truth of the matter, Ning Yuan did not scare the snake away, but went back to the farm with Huyan Yuanchen, and asked Huyan Yuanchen when the gang of river robbers would meet the people from Jiangzhou, and he quickly settled down. Made a plan.

Cao Guichun has been quite depressed recently.

Because of the Dragon Boat Competition, the one-month deadline given by the eldest prince has expired, but there is still no sign of the real culprit. As a last resort, he had to randomly arrest someone from among the death row prisoners to take the blame, but although He barely overcame this hurdle, but he also knew that after this incident, his status as the governor of Jiangzhou was seriously affected. He had made no achievements in his political achievements in the past few years as governor, and if he made more mistakes Some, I'm afraid the black hat will not be guaranteed.

Therefore, he was very anxious, always thinking that he should quickly do something that would impress the people of Jiangzhou.

Huang Tian paid off, when he had no way out, an anonymous letter was delivered to him.

The content of the letter was concise and to the point that there was a gang of river pirates hiding near Xianghe Town, and they were very rampant. I also asked Governor Cao to clean it up in accordance with the duty of the court ordering officials, and to benefit the people. The letter also listed in detail the gang of river robbers. When and where the thief will appear, let him see the time and send troops to take it down.

Cao Guichun didn't dare to be sloppy when he got the news. Although he didn't have time to check the authenticity of the letter, no matter if it was true or not, he couldn't let go of this opportunity to increase his reputation!

It was a fine day, and the leader of the river bandits, Lao Wutou, waited quietly beside a small road at the foot of the mountain with three carriages.

This time they got a good harvest, and they actually stole a lot of jewelry and jade. If they can cash them all out, let alone tens of thousands of taels of silver, he has been a river pirate for so many years, so he has almost never done such a big deal, so he is excited It is inevitable that my colleagues will be a little annoyed.

In order to protect themselves, these things cannot be sold by themselves, they can only be sold at a discount to those who can dispose of the goods. Mrs. Yan in Jiangzhou City is their regular customer, but that woman is very greedy. At the beginning, the cooperation between the two parties was quite pleasant, and everyone split the bill fifty-fifty. But recently, the other party has intensified and lowered the price again and again. I think it is sure that if they do not agree, they will not be able to find others to take over their goods for a while, let alone the river pirates. The risk is high, and for their own safety, they are unlikely to find new and unfamiliar customers.

Old Wu turned his head and looked at the carriage behind him. I'm afraid that the woman would swallow all of these tens of thousands of taels if she only offered them a price of two or three thousand taels. When it comes to making money, it's better to negotiate the price today, and you can't let her take advantage of it all the time.

At this time, a middle-aged man in a white robe came to the end of the road. Looking around all the way, the middle-aged man quickly walked up to the old Wutou, and secretly said: "The king of heaven and the earth tiger."

"The pagoda suppresses the river demon." Old Wutou read out the connection code familiarly, and said strangely: "This gentleman has a very good face, where is the old man who usually connects with us?"

"He has gone to help Madam with other things. I will look after the goods today." The middle-aged man suppressed his voice and glanced at the carriage behind Old Wu Tou. The exquisite goldware inside, "This is an excellent batch of goods, worth tens of thousands of taels, and our brothers risked their lives to get them. We only need 5000 taels, and we will give them all to Madam."

"5000 taels? Too much, no way." The middle-aged man frowned after hearing this, "Madam doesn't have much money recently, and it's not a trivial matter to dispose of all these stolen goods. One thousand, 800 taels, no more!"

When Old Wu heard the price, his face turned a little crooked, 800 taels, which was less than his worst plan of 2000 taels, how could he be willing, and immediately snorted hard, "Ma'am, you are fooling us. Our brothers are exhausted, but we are not easy to bully, if Madam does not want to give the price, then we have nothing to say, Madam does not want this batch, someone will naturally want it!" After finishing speaking, he waved at the men behind him , "Let's go!"

But he waited for a long while, but he didn't hear any reaction from the people behind him. He turned his head, his eyes widened suddenly. Those of his subordinates were all knocked out without a sound, and they lay in a crooked position. On the ground, a young man wearing a bamboo hat was standing on the carriage, holding a piece of dogtail grass in his mouth, smiling "subtly" at him.

Old Wutou immediately understood that this was a no-cost transaction for them to grab goods!

"You...you..." Although he had some kung fu, the young man was able to deal with all his subordinates without a sound. He was obviously not a vegetarian, and the old Wu was not stupid, and the soles of his feet had already moved slightly , ready to slip away.

Seeing that he was about to run, the middle-aged man made a gesture to rush forward, and the old Wutou immediately stopped hiding, ran away and burrowed into the woods. If something like this happens, our Old Wu Gang will not let it go!"

"Old Wu Gang, the name is not good enough." As soon as the old Wutou slipped away, a young man in white turned out from behind a big tree not far away, and the middle-aged man who had been talking to the old Wutou before The man, who also lost the beard sticking to his mouth at this time, was Zhou Shi.

Zhou Shi wiped the sweat from his forehead. Although he acted well just now, he is not good at lying, so he was so nervous that he was drenched all over. Ning Yuan opened a box, took out a gold cup to check the quality, and then Put it back, and said to Zhou Shi: "Is there any movement from Governor Cao?"

Zhou Shi nodded, "I have already led the troops out of the city this morning, and the master is also accompanying me."

"Father?" Ning Yuan suddenly laughed, "This is really a surprise. I forgot that if Governor Cao wanted to dispatch troops, he would have to go through my guarding father... If it wasn't for dealing with this pile of I can’t keep up with things, I really want to go and watch an opera.”

Ningfu.

In Ruining Courtyard, Mrs. Yan was staring at the steaming steamer in the kitchen.

In the steamer is the sweet-scented osmanthus cake she made by herself, which is added with wild ginseng which is very beneficial for nourishing yang and nourishing qi. It is most suitable for men to take. Like a tiger crossing a river.

She actually lived very aggrieved during these days, because Zhao Shan's death made her inexplicably feel the threat of Ning Yuan. Originally, she wanted to hold Ning Xin'er in her hands and let the other party be cautious, but it was self-defeating. Tang Yingyao, who kept her own law and order, began to compete with her for favor, and what surprised her the most was that Ning Ruhai had left Tang Yingyao in the Xianglian courtyard all these years, thinking that because of Tang Yingyao's "stealing", Ning Ruhai hated her I love her so much, but I didn't expect Tang Yingyao to talk about the piano and sing a song in a flattering manner, as if seducing Ning Ruhai's soul away, and the number of times she, the eldest lady, was favored by Ning Ruhai in an instant It dropped by more than half.

Yan was very angry, and Tang's face-to-face dignitary had seriously challenged her authority. She was going to deal with Tang immediately, but at this time the doctor who treated Ning Zhan suddenly arrived. After weighing the two, Yan Shi had no choice but to put other things aside and concentrate on accompanying the doctor to take care of his son's illness.

Now, seeing that most of Ning Zhan's body has miraculously recovered under the doctor's treatment, and she can even go out without being carried in the room full of medicine gas, while she is happy, she also thinks that finally You can free up your hands to clean up the people who need to be cleaned up.

Yesterday she spent three inches of tongue, and finally got Ning Ruhai to agree to come to her yard to spend the night. I believe that with this plate of sweet-scented osmanthus cake mixed with wild ginseng, she will blow the wind beside her pillow and provoke Ning Ruhai. With Hai's anger at Tang's "cheating affair", that woman couldn't help herself anymore.

As for Ning Yuan, whether that kid has a backer or not, she has to investigate patiently. Zhao Shan's matter always weighs on her heart like a stone, and she must figure it out.

It's just that the master has been out for a whole day, so it's time to come back... Yan raised his head and looked at the dark sky outside the window, his right eye jumped for no reason.

The hourglass next to the stove came to the bottom, and the pastry was steamed. Yan opened the steamer and smelled the aroma, nodded, and brought it out with his own hands.

But at this moment, Xu's mother suddenly ran in nervously, "Ma'am, it's not good! It's not good!"

"What are you arguing about!" Yan Shi turned her head and glared at Xu's mother, "Didn't you see that I'm busy!"

"No ma'am, master, he..." Madam Xu had just said a word, but the butler also came in behind Mama Xu, not only the butler, but also two strong servants. Talking a lot, only sighed, and simply spit out four words: "I still don't take it away."

Yan Shi didn't know why, but the two big men suddenly stepped forward, one on the left and one on the right, and Yan Shi was caught off guard. The plate in his hand shattered on the ground, and the steaming cakes were scattered all over the floor. .

"What are you doing, presumptuous!" Yan Shi couldn't believe that these servants dared to fight her, and roared: "Butler, you are crazy, don't let me go!"

"The eldest madam offended, and I also obeyed the master's wishes. The master is waiting for you in the main hall now. You should go with me." The housekeeper also trembled in his heart, and did not dare to look into Yan's eyes , but hastily led the two servants to take her to the main hall. Mother Xu had an impatient expression on her face, but she had no choice but to follow behind.

There was no one else in the main hall, only Ning Ruhai was sitting there calmly. He obviously just came back, and he didn't have time to take off his armor, sitting there like a god of evil.

After Yan Shi was brought in, she was let go by the two strong men. She touched her wrist that was scratched and hurt, looked at Ning Ruhai for no reason, and said with a dignified smile: "Master, do you want Seeing the concubine, I just found someone to call the concubine, why bother..."

But she couldn't continue speaking in the middle of her sentence, because Ning Ruhai stood up abruptly, walked in front of him with big strides, and slapped her across the face.

Ning Ruhai has practiced martial arts, and has been a general for so many years. How could she be so weak? Yan's eyes were blackened by her beating, and her body almost flew into the air, and fell heavily to the ground. She felt that she was about to lose all five senses. , I can only feel the taste of rust in my mouth, which is the taste of blood.

She has been married to Ning Ruhai for more than ten years, and she has always been the dignified, generous and pampered lady in this house. Ning Ruhai seldom even scolded her, not to mention beating her, but today she not only beat her, but even met Hong !

Yan looked at Ning Ruhai in disbelief, "Master, why..."

"You still have the nerve to ask!" Ning Ruhai felt impatient, and was about to step forward to kick her feet again. Fortunately, Mother Xu had quick eyesight and quick hands, and rushed forward to hug Ning Ruhai's calf, "Master, if you have something to say, please say it! Speak well! Madam is weak and cannot stand a beating!"

"Hmph, you slutty slave, madam doesn't know how to persuade her when she makes a mistake, so it's not easy to think about it!" Ning Ruhai was even more angry when she saw that Xu's mother dared to stop her, Yan is her regular wife after all, When he started to fight, he could estimate it more or less, but Madam Xu was just a slave. When Ning Ruhai got angry, he grabbed Mama Xu by the lapel and lifted her up. She slapped Mama Xu's face with a big slap from left to right. It became a shadow on the ground.

Xu's mother wanted to struggle, wanted to scream, but he was a half-mature woman, how could she earn more than Ning Ruhai, and she was immediately beaten with stares, as if her tongue was about to fly out. Seeing Xu's mother Of course, Yan Shi did not agree with his appearance, but he was more shocked, because Ning Ruhai had never been so angry in front of him, even if Ning Pinger and Liu Shi did such embarrassing things back then, he Never been so angry.

In the end what happened!

"Master, I don't know what annoyed the master. The master is angry. If you want to punish the concubine, do it, but at least let the concubine be a sensible ghost!" Yan knew that Ning Ruhai was a master who took the soft but not the hard. At this time, there is no other way but to beg and beg. Xu's mother is her confidant. Seeing that she has been beaten by Ning Ruhai and hangs on his hands like mud, Yan is also impatient, so she makes a pitiful face. , knelt at Ning Ruhai's feet and kept begging.

"You still have the nerve to ask! If you, a bitch, didn't do such a thing, why would I suffer such a great humiliation in front of that guy Cao Guichun!" Ning Ruhai roared angrily.

"Captain Cao?" Yan was taken aback.

"Hmph, let me ask you, the river pirates in Xianghe Town have something to do with you!" Ning Ruhai pointed at Yan Shi's nose, and finally let Yan Shi know the reason for his anger.

As soon as Yan Shi heard the word "river robber", even though he managed to maintain his expression, his heart was indeed in a turbulent state.

Impossible, how could this matter be discovered!

Ning Ruhai was really about to go mad with anger. It was originally Cao Guichun who found him and said that there were river pirates hiding in the mountains not far from Xianghe Town, and asked Ning Ruhai to order a team of soldiers to go with him to arrest him. Going to the River Pirates was a great achievement, so Ning Ruhai naturally readily agreed and went with him.

When they arrived at a place known to Cao Guichun, there was indeed a group of river bandits camping there. Cao Guichun had no reason to be polite, and immediately ordered soldiers to swarm up there, and arrested all the bandits in the entire village. , even their boss who just came back from the outside - Old Wutou was not spared.

Afterwards, Cao Guichun opened a court on the spot and began to interrogate the leader of the gang of river robbers to press for the whereabouts of the stolen goods.Originally, Cao Guichun thought it would take a lot of time to talk, because there is a "rule on the road" in the river pirate business. In order not to hurt others, even if he is caught, he must keep his mouth shut about the ins and outs of the stolen goods. They are "men", but they don't want Cao Guichun to ask a question without even taking out the torture tools, and the boss named Old Wutou vomited everything thoroughly without any spine.

Of course, what he said also stunned Cao Guichun who was interrogating and Ning Ruhai who was accompanying him during the interrogation!

Old Wutou didn't know Ning Ruhai, and he had just been caught by the white wolf once again, and now his hometown was raided again, so he naturally thought that it was the Yan family who was behind the scenes, hacking their things, and he was afraid of their revenge He simply asked the government to catch them all, he was so angry that there was no reason to help the Yan family, and he directly told the two adults that the person who has been helping them deal with the stolen goods is Mrs. Yan from the Ningfu of Jiangzhou old godmother.

It's Jiangzhou, it's Ning Mansion, and its surname is Yan, how can there be such a coincidence, it's obviously his wife who is Ning Ruhai's housewife!

Ning Ruhai was in shock, and wanted to reprimand the leader for spitting blood, but unexpectedly, the leader spoke so clearly that it didn't look like a fabrication at all. He even showed a few bank notes, and on the stubs of the bank notes, it was written that It was stored in the bank by Ningfu!

That's okay, Ning Ruhai's face turned green at the time, and he didn't know what to do, Cao Guichun was more shrewd, and immediately asked people to shut the mouths of Old Wutou and his gang, and at the same time, he vowed to comfort Ning Ruhai and said, Everyone is an official in the same place, and they are going up and down the peak, so they should take care of each other, so he took care of this matter, so that Ning Ruhai should not worry, even if this matter is really related to his wife, Cao Guichun will not go Get someone from the house.However, Cao Guichun did not forget to take this opportunity to taunt Ning Ruhai severely, saying that he is not strict with his family and neglects to discipline his wife, and that he needs to be more diligent in self-cultivation and manage the family well so that he can assist the sage to serve the country.

These superficially comforting but teasing words really made Ning Ruhai so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven. Everyone knew that Cao Guichun was reprimanded by the eldest prince because of the dragon boat incident, saying that he was incompetent and almost lost his black hat.And Ning Ruhai has always thought highly of himself, and has the title of earl, but now he is disciplined by an official who was criticized as "incompetent" by the eldest prince to "diligently cultivate himself". Doesn't it mean that he is even more incompetent than Cao Guichun!

How could he swallow this breath!

084 Go Home

After hearing what Ning Ruhai said angrily, Yan's mouth opened wide and her eyes widened. Seeing that Ning Ruhai had left Mother Xu behind and wanted to call her again, she hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "Master, this It's a false accusation, you have to trust me, I don't know anything about this!"

"You don't know, could it be that those gang of river robbers would frame you for no reason?! You don't know, how could those gang of river robbers know that you are a woman in a deep house?!" Ru Hai became even more angry, pointing at the tip of her nose and roaring: "You bitch who ruins the family tradition, you are really a disgrace to the family, how dare you sit in the position of the mistress, if you still want to save face , it is better to abdicate and let Xian!"

Abdicate to Xian!Ning Ruhai is going to divorce her!Yan Shi couldn't believe her ears. She has been the main wife since she married into the Ning family. She has been dignified and virtuous for decades. When outsiders saw her, they all praised her as a very decent wife. She said such words, yes, it must be Tang Yingyao, that vixen, who hooked the master's soul away, so her fault was discovered, and the master did not let her go so hard, Yan's eyes were full of tears on the surface, But her heart turned rapidly, and after a while, she seemed to have made up her mind, sobbing: "Forget it, the matter has come to this point, I have nothing to say, I did have contact with those river robbers without telling the master, since In the past, I naturally thought of today, I will be punished by the master alone."

Just now he was still in a hurry to deny it, but in this short moment, Yan Shi actually confessed his guilt unexpectedly, which made Ning Ruhai slightly stunned in his rage.

Yan also had no other choice. Now that the gang of river robbers had confessed to her, she couldn't explain why a woman in a deep house got acquainted with the river robbers. There is no way to deny this, so she might as well just admit it. There is still room for change.

Taking advantage of Ning Ruhai's stunned effort, Yan has already corrected his expression, showing a sad and distressed expression, wiped the corners of his eyes with a brocade handkerchief and said: "It's just that this concubine will do this, it is really a last resort, the master wants to let go The concubine is willing to accept it, but the ins and outs of the whole matter, would the master be willing to hear a few words from the concubine?"

Yan's expression is very skillful, she is already old, and her delicate and pitiful appearance is not suitable, but she can handle the demeanor of a good wife and loving mother just right, Ning Ruhai looked at her obedient appearance, He took two more breaths, turned around and sat down heavily on the chair, and said in a low voice, "Forget it, say it!"

"Master, you haven't seen Zhan'er for a long time." Unexpectedly, when Yan opened his mouth, he said something else, "I don't know about Zhan'er's illness, master, do you still care about it?"

"Nonsense, Zhan'er is my eldest son, how could I not care about it!" Ning Ruhai frowned and said, "Don't talk about him, why are you asking Zhan'er now, maybe you want me to look at Zhan'er For the sake of saving your face?"

Yan touched her eyes again, her expression even more sad, "Then, since the master still cares about Zhan'er, do you know how much money will be spent in total to keep Zhan'er's body?"

"It's just money for medicinal materials. Could it be that the Ning Mansion can't afford it?" Ning Ruhai said, "Could it be that you want to tell me that you have been colluding with river robbers and enriching your own pockets in order to get money to buy medicine for Zhan'er?"

"I think, master, your knowledge of Zhan'er's body is still limited to three doses of medicine a day, so that the body will be safe." Yan lowered her eyes, her voice was hoarse and heavy with a little bit of resentment, " But master, do you know that if Zhan'er only relied on the decoction like an ordinary doctor diagnosed, his life might be guaranteed, but Zhan'er's constitution is weak, and the decoction's medicinal properties are fierce. The pain of angina, that pain, is simply worse than death!"

"Fortunately, I was once instructed by a skilled and benevolent doctor. The doctor said that Zhan'er's heart was damaged, and ordinary soups and medicines might not be able to cure it. He could only rely on medicinal qi to heal and prolong his life. The so-called medicinal qi is to seek The most upright and masculine precious herbs in the coming weather are arranged in the entire bedroom and even the entire courtyard. The patients live in it, and the breath of all kinds of precious herbs can slowly penetrate into the body, nourishing the body and prolonging life. Over the years, I have been I am using this method to recuperate Zhan'er's body, but do you know how much silver taels it will cost to get those medicinal materials?"

"What an idiot. If you are short of money, you can come and tell me what is the point of running and collaborating with river robbers. Could it be that you are the only one who loves your son? I, a father, is cold-blooded and even takes money for medicine. Don't come out!" Ning Ruhai slapped the coffee table beside him.

Yan smiled, "It's just the seven-leaf mountain ginseng, which costs ten taels of silver per plant, and the most common nine-leaf Ganoderma lucidum, which also costs 30 taels of silver, not to mention Sanyang grass, Longyan fruit and other exotic medicinal plants Well, the master may not have visited Zhan'er's room. The medicinal materials in his room alone are worth thousands of taels of silver, and the rooted medicinal materials do not last long. Once they wither, they must be replaced immediately, master. Let alone your salary, even if we add up the income of all the properties of our Ning Mansion, how many times is it enough to replace it?"

Ning Ruhai showed a shocked expression, the medicinal materials alone cost a thousand taels?

"Of course, the concubine knows that you love my son dearly. If the concubine makes a request to you, in order to save Zhan'er's life, you will definitely find a way to get the money out, but you are an official in the court. There are only a few ways to collect money from the imperial court's salary, how can I watch you take risks and do things that violate the laws of the heavenly family?" Yan said sincerely, and Ning Ru Hai couldn't help but tremble in his heart.What Yan said is right, if it really costs so much money to treat Ning Zhan's illness, his salary is obviously a drop in the bucket, but it is easy for the court to order officials to search for money, just let go and accept bribes. What I hate the most is the word greed. If he really accepts bribes, once the incident is revealed and he is caught by someone with a heart, it will definitely be difficult for him to be kind.

"Master, when the old lady celebrated her birthday, Ning Xiang took out a priceless gold-thread dress as a congratulatory gift for the old lady, but Ning Yuan reprimanded her, which would ruin your reputation, even a child of Yuan'er. How could this concubine not have thought of the things that I thought of, if the master risked going astray because of Zhan'er's illness, I would not be able to do it, I would not be able to do it!" At this point, Yan not only burst into tears, He also thumped his chest hard twice, "Master and Zhan'er are both the best people in my body and mind. I am incompetent, I can't save Zhan'er, and I can't share my worries for the master. In desperation, I thought, as long as I can keep Zhan'er The name of the son, without damaging the reputation of the master, all the sins are borne by the concubine alone, the body of the concubine is like a dust, the only hope in this life is the safety of the master and Zhan'er, so even if it is Let this concubine go down to the eighteenth level of hell and suffer all kinds of hardships, I am willing to do so!"

After finishing speaking, Yan threw herself on the ground and burst into tears, while Ning Ruhai's originally angry face was completely replaced by shock and disbelief.

Yan's bitter trick is really realistic, he doesn't mention his extravagant private life at all, he only pushes Ning Zhan out, and packs himself into a loving mother and wife who is willing to give up herself for her husband and children. Open, anyone will be moved a few times when they hear it.

"This... is this true? It turns out that it was because of this reason that you colluded with river pirates and collected money privately?" Ning Ruhai murmured.

"The medicinal materials in Zhan'er's room have not been removed. If the master doesn't believe it, you can go to Zhan'er's room to check immediately." Yan said with a sob: "I know that I have committed a serious crime, and I am in a state of anxiety all day long. There is no cure for Zhan'er, but luckily, my concubine found a famous doctor a few days ago, Zhan'er's body has been diagnosed and treated by a famous doctor, and now he is more than half healed, can get out of bed and walk around, and no longer rely on medicine. .The concubine has fulfilled her heart and soul wishes, and has nothing left in this life, and if she is responsible for her crimes, she will be punished by the master."

Ning Ruhai looked at Yan's low-browed and pleasing expression, and for some reason, the last trace of anger in his heart dissipated.If what Yan said is true, then his wife really has no choice but to collude with the river bandits and become a villain herself in order to preserve her reputation and save her children, even if she is really at fault, But in terms of emotion and reason, how could Ning Ruhai be willing to punish her.

"Ma'am, get up quickly." Looking at Yan's face that was swollen and red by herself, Ning Ruhai's eyes showed a hint of distress, and immediately added Yan's, "Good lady, I blamed you, if you If there is a mistake, then I am a husband and a father, but I am ignorant of everything, and it would be even more sinful to let Madam you suffer such a great grievance."

Yan looked at Ning Ruguan's anxious face, and at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief, he couldn't help but choked up and said, "But this concubine has committed a felony after all in colluding with river robbers. If the master doesn't leave me, Cao Dudu..."

"Dudu Cao always has to take care of my face. What's more, I have just said that Dudu Cao has secretly suppressed this matter. I am angry because Dudu Cao used this incident to reprimand me, but I never thought about it. In the face of all the grievances I have suffered, it is nothing for me to be criticized."

Yan Shi looked at Ning Ruhai's resolute face, lowered her eyes gently for a moment, and called "Master" softly.Ning Ruhai was about to say a few more words of comfort to him, but for some reason, he smelled a very faint fragrance from Yan Shi's body, and his heart moved. Seeing Yan Shi's coquettish and charming appearance in his arms, and his clothes in a mess, His body became inexplicably hot, and he suddenly hooked Yan Shi's waist tightly, making her body stick tightly to his body, and said in a hoarse voice to the servants standing by the door: "You all go out!"

Unexpectedly, he happened to see an absurd scene in the house.

He shook his hands, took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms, and swallowed the contents. pills, and at the same time, a pair of eyes scanned Ning Ruhai's body over and over again greedily, from his thick arms to his thick chest muscles, well-defined abdominal muscles, and thick haired legs, looking at his bronze-colored skin Glittering under the cover of sweat, he felt that his lower body was already swollen and aching. He loosened his belt in a panic, and before he could reach in, a trembling feeling that he had never felt before rushed straight from the soles of his feet to his forehead. Heart, he gritted his teeth hard and let out a muffled snort, a large stream of water actually flowed out along the crotch, and soon wet most of the pants.

He was so excited that he lost control of himself!

A carriage stepped on the sunset, driving on the official road leaving Xianghe Town.

The drivers were two young people, one of them was honest and honest, and only knew
