Powerful ministers are husbands

The two people in the room did not fall asleep immediately, probably because they were hungry and they had no desire to sleep.

"When will the days when you can only eat one meal a day end?" Scarface complained.His voice was deliberately lowered, but for Pang Miao who was standing outside the window, he could still hear their conversation after listening carefully.

The middle-aged man sighed: "Didn't Brother Tong say that it will be fine after his wife leaves Zhuangzi, so bear with it."

"Forbearance, forbearance, forbearance! I almost succeeded today. That little girl looks weak, but she runs very fast on her feet! Hmph, if she is injured and trapped in the house, the surname Tong can give it to her if she is not sure. Let's get food!" Scarface's temper suddenly exploded, but under the rage, he still restrained his voice.

Pang Miao frowned. It was no coincidence that the thatched hut collapsed suddenly during the day.

Scarface was still complaining incessantly: "Also, what brother Tong? You treat him as a brother, but it doesn't mean he really treats you as a brother. Otherwise, why is the food brought so little every time, stingy thing."

The middle-aged man persuaded in a friendly voice: "Oh, don't even think about it. If Brother Tong hadn't taken us in and let us hide here with peace of mind, we would definitely be crying in front of Lord Hades now."

There was a sound of cloth rubbing against each other, and Scarface snorted coldly.

"Okay, okay, after the lady of the family leaves, I will secretly stay up the mountain and catch pheasants and roe deer for you to improve your food. Don't worry, be careful if things go wrong, in case other people find us , leaked the news, I don’t know how many people will be implicated and died together.” The middle-aged man continued to patiently open his scarred face.

Scarface was silent for a long time, and finally muttered discouragedly: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

"Go to sleep." The middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief.

After a while, there was no voice in the room, and Pang Miao felt that he had to leave.He tiptoedly followed the path back to the courtyard wall, carefully put on the shoes lying on the mud, and then climbed over the wall. He ran back to the house with his shoes on, and closed the door tightly.

Pang Miao casually pulled a piece of clothing, wrapped the muddy shoes, stuffed them into the box he brought from Pang's mansion, then grabbed the teapot on the table, and took several sips.

The cold tea made his thoughts clearer.

No matter what the identities of those two people are, they must be driven away from the Pang family's Zhuangzi.

This is no different from a small ant nest on a solid dam, which will cause the dam to collapse at any time, causing death.

Pang Miao kept pacing back and forth in the room, trying to come up with a plan as soon as possible so that Guanshi Tong would not find out that he already knew the secret of the East Yard, and at the same time, the two of them would voluntarily and secretly leave the Zhuangzi.

Not long after, Pang Miao made up his mind and lay down to rest.

Two days later, the Pang family and his party set off for Beijing.They set off at dawn, and when Xue Jinyi came to greet Mrs. Pang three times in the morning, only Guanshi Tong, his wife and a few servants were left in the village.

Guanshi Tong hesitated for a moment, and asked cautiously: "Where else do you want to go, Mr. Xue? I'll find someone to show you the way."

Xue Jinyi rubbed his chin, "It's almost time for me to go back to Beijing. I've been bothering Guan Tong these days, and it's a pleasure to drink with you. If I have free time in the future, I will definitely visit again."

Guanshi Tong said a few words politely, and watched Xue Jinyi return to Wang's house to pick up his luggage and left Hanyun Village.The boulder that had been pressing on his chest suddenly disappeared. He could finally breathe a long sigh of relief, and asked his wife to prepare chicken, duck and fish. These days, he was afraid to go to the East Court, for fear of arousing his wife and young lady's ideas, so he asked his wife The two people in the east courtyard are hungry every day, now that they are relieved, why don't they hurry up and add some food?Save them from making trouble.

When Scarface saw the rich meat on the table, he was not polite to Guanshi Tong at all. He grabbed a pork knuckle with one hand and gnawed it, humming in satisfaction, until his face was covered with oil.The middle-aged man was quite gentle, and thanked Guanshi Tong before picking up his chopsticks and chewing slowly.

After the storm swept away, Scarface swallowed the last piece of steamed bun dipped in meat sauce, patted his stomach with satisfaction, and burped loudly.The middle-aged man stopped his chopsticks a long time ago, looked at Scarface with a deep frown after eating, and then said slowly, "I've been inexplicably flustered for the past two days. Please, Mr. Tong, pay more attention to the movement outside. I I'm afraid... no matter how hidden this place is, there will be a day when they will come to you."

Guanshi Tong was also a little flustered, but he waved his hand indifferently on the surface, "Don't worry, I will make arrangements."

"Hmph," Scarface snorted unhappily, "how long are we going to hide, why don't we go to the door with a knife and cut him off directly. If you want to die, we all die together!"

The middle-aged man glared at him fiercely, and said emphatically, "Is your death worthwhile? Not to mention whether you can get close."

Scarface stopped talking, twisted and looked to the side.

Guanshi Tong lowered his head to clean up the dishes and wipe the table, as if he didn't care what they said.

The middle-aged man looked at Guanshi Tong, who was out of the way, and sighed sadly, "Brother, please calm down. You are thousands of miles away, you are skilled in martial arts, and there are many guards around you. How can we kill them? Right now, he can only lie dormant temporarily to accumulate strength, and when the time is right in the future, when he returns to the imperial capital, it will not be too late to make a move."

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you." Scarface finally lost his expression, and swaggered back to bed to sleep.

"You guys rest first, I'm going out." Guanshi Tong knew what was going on between the two of them, he didn't intervene except to provide a shelter, so after saying hello, he ran out quickly and ran into his wife, He couldn't help complaining in a low voice: "The son you raised is promising. I think any friends you make outside will lead to death sooner or later."

Tong Niangzi glanced at her husband angrily, "Didn't you agree to him to go out and do business?"

"Forget it." As soon as the dispute started, Guanshi Tong lost his confidence, waved his hands and prepared to leave, "The kindness of heaven must be repaid, there is no other way, I will go out to do some things, you take care of the house. "

"Go early and come back early." Tong Niangzi closed the door immediately after seeing her husband out, as if she was facing an enemy.

The Pang family's carriage was stopped by a checkpoint on the way. Pang Miao lifted the curtain and took a look. It was clear that there was no checkpoint set up on the way when he came. It seemed that something serious happened in the surrounding counties and counties, and he was hunting fugitives everywhere.

"Come down, come down!" The man dressed as a yamen servant yelled irritably, the stick in his hand knocked on the shaft of the car with a "bang bang", the driver jumped down timidly, and stood aside.

Jinxiu poked her head out and shouted: "Do you know..."

Pang Miao pressed her shoulder, "There are people coming and going here, and it's so noisy. They are also doing business, just watch." The carriage they came out in was ordinary, and no one would have guessed that it had something to do with the Cao family. .If you have revealed your identity, you don't know how you will be flattered and waste time.

Jinxiu curled her lips and raised the curtain, "My wife and young lady are in the car, so it's not convenient to get out of the car."

The yamen servant shook off a portrait, stared at the coachman carefully for a few times, and then looked into the car. He saw two young women and a middle-aged woman sitting beside them, and there were only two or three salutes beside them. There was nothing unusual, so they waved Let go, "Okay, you can go."

Before leaving, Pang Miao took a special look at the portrait, and his eyelids twitched. Isn't that the scarred face hiding in Zhuangzi's east courtyard? !

Not far from the checkpoint, there was a big teahouse. Pang Miao ordered Jinxiu to buy some tea, and sent the driver to the checkpoint to inquire about news.

Mrs. Pang asked curiously, "Why do you suddenly care about this?"

"In case you meet someone wanted along the way, you'd better take precautions early." Pang Miao explained without blushing, he still didn't want his mother to worry too much.

For such an explanation, Mrs. Pang understood very well, and when the coachman came back to inquire about it, she asked it herself.

The coachman said: "It is said that he was a vicious villain who escaped after killing a county magistrate, so checkpoints were set up on the surrounding roads to arrest people. There was also a notice saying that no matter whether the person caught was dead or alive, he would be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver. "

"I hope we won't run into each other on the way." Mrs. Pang shook her head.

Pang Miao comforted: "We are all walking the official road, and we can enter the city before dark and have a place to live, and we will return home at noon tomorrow. Mother, you don't have to worry too much."

Mrs. Pang looked at her son lovingly and nodded.

The Pang family continued on the road, and found a good inn in the county town before dark.In the early morning of the next day, when the pedestrians on the street gradually hid, they continued on the road.After Pang Miao cleaned up, he just walked out of the room when a person blocked him.

"Xue Jin...Young Master?" He was surprised, this man was really haunted.I set off from Zhuangzi early yesterday morning just to avoid Xue Jinyi, but I didn't expect to meet him again one night later.

He can now be very sure that any coincidences or games are all superficial, but in fact Xue Jinyi is here for him.

Xue Jinyi is such a carefree person, so he cares about what he said when he met the saint?Although it is indeed strange, but... is it really necessary to pester him endlessly?
