Chapter 528: The Situation Is Critical
The miscellaneous footsteps and rapid knocks in the middle of the night woke up the sleeping people in Luzhou City, and the people who were still immersed in the aftertaste of the New Year got up and opened the door at a loss to meet the wolf-like soldiers.
At this time, there are always all the soldiers who like to take advantage of the fire to rob, needless to say, breaking into the women's rooms and touching and scratching the women's half-exposed breasts from time to time; This naturally led to scolding and protests, and bloody cases were inevitable; For a while, the voices of crying and shouting and scolding were everywhere, and when the soldiers were annoyed and angry, many people were also stabbed, but fortunately, no one was killed, which was a blessing in misfortune.
In a mansion in the north of the city, the companions of the Yan family had already noticed that the situation was different, and hurriedly reported it, Yan Biyun immediately ordered someone to wake everyone up, and a room of forty or fifty people except for Mrs. Wang was not alarmed, and all the others gathered in the hall, suddenly looking around, frightened.
Yan Biyun's calm gaze swept over everyone, and everywhere his eyes looked, everyone's restless emotions immediately calmed down; The prince is not here, everyone has no backbone, at this moment, there is an urgent need for someone to stand up and rely on everyone, and Yan Biyun is the best candidate.
Everyone knows that Yan Biyun will become the Su family's housewife sooner or later, and this is the time for this future housemother to show her ability.
"Don't panic, Su Gongzi went to Shouzhou, and he won't be able to come back for a while, and when he left, he said that if there is any change in the city, it must be aimed at us, so the slave family called you up, just for this matter."
Xiao Sui'er said: "Yan Dong's family, where are dozens of people in this family hiding?" Maybe it's not aimed at us. ”
Yan Biyun said: "I also hope so, but how can I take this risk, once I make a mistake, it will be too late to regret it." ”
There was a knock of footsteps outside the door, and Liu, the eldest elder of the Yan family, rushed in and shouted: "The owner, hurry up and find a way, the box soldiers searched two streets away, Ma San went to inquire secretly, they said that they were searching for key criminals, but in their words, they were asking about the situation of the Su family, and it seemed that they were really coming to the Su family." ”
Yan Biyun said: "I know, you immediately withdraw to the courtyard, close the courtyard door and get ready; Xian'er, go to the utility room in the corner of the backyard at once, there is a cellar under the house, which can accommodate people; Sister Sui'er, Sister Rou Niang Huanniang, a few of you go and ask the old lady to hide in the cellar and bring some tea and snacks in, lest the old lady be thirsty and hungry, and you must not agree without me personally calling. ”
Rou Niang said: "Then Sister Yan, what should you do?" ”
Yan Biyun said with a smile: "They are looking for trouble with the Su family, how dare they help me?" The rest of you wait, listen, you are my Yan family's slaves from now on, you must not show your mouth, everything will be dealt with by the slave family. ”
Everyone agreed in a panic, and now they can only obey Yan Biyun's command; Rou Niang, Huanniang, Xiao Sui'er and others hurriedly asked Mrs. Wang to get up, Mrs. Wang was ignorant, and asked endlessly, and everyone had no choice but to tell the truth, and suddenly frightened her face pale, and let everyone fiddle like a puppet, hiding in the cellar of the back garden.
In the courtyard of the house, everyone turned off the lights, and seven or eight Yan Mansion companions and Su Jin's more than ten people from the Su Ji Nursing Courtyard who were guarded by Su Jin were hidden around the courtyard with their hands, and the rest went back to their rooms and prayed.
After a hard stick of incense, a noisy noise sounded in front of the courtyard gate, a group of officers and soldiers came to the courtyard gate with torches, and the officers and soldiers who took the lead stepped forward and slammed the door, shouting: "On the order of the prefect, the whole city will search for important criminals in the imperial court, and quickly open the door for inspection." ”
Yan Biyun lit the lantern and came to the courtyard, everyone also gathered in the front yard as if they had just gotten up, and a servant stepped forward and just opened the courtyard door, and immediately rushed in more than 20 soldiers and soldiers, with lanterns and torches in their hands, and the courtyard was in chaos.
The leading officers and soldiers all shouted, "Who is the master of this house?" Why did it take so long to open the door? ”
Yan Biyun stepped forward and said, "This general, the slave family is the master of this house." ”
Nadu Tou obviously didn't know Yan Biyun, and when he saw this slim and beautiful little lady at first glance, he felt a sudden shock in his heart, swallowed and spitted: "You are the master of this house?" Don't you have a man in your house? ”
Yan Biyun reprimanded: "This general's words are really ridiculous, can't a woman be the head of the family?" What is the system of the three watches in the middle of the night? ”
Nadu was stunned for a moment, looked Yan Biyun up and down rudely, licked her lips and said: "The little lady has a sharp mouth, Bendu Tou just asked casually, you said so much; The head of the capital was ordered by the prefect to search for important criminals in the imperial court, and naturally he had to act vigorously and quickly, could he still politely ask for words? ”
Yan Biyun said coldly: "Naturally, you have to be polite, you are a soldier of the Great Song Dynasty, and your duty is to protect the people of the Great Song Dynasty, not to disturb the people casually; Even if you search for key criminals, you must also abide by your duties, according to the rules, you say that you are on the orders of the prefect, but you have a warrant from the prefect? ”
Nadu laughed and said: "I can't see that the little lady is really sensible, and the warrant is naturally there, but the master can't prove his identity to you, call all the people in the house out, and the master must check whether there are important criminals hidden in this house; If the little lady knows each other, she will stand aside, if she doesn't know each other, don't blame the men for not being reasonable. ”
Yan Biyun said: "Search people's houses without a warrant? What kind of reasoning is this? The slave family suspects that you don't have the prefect's order at all, so take out the warrant and naturally let you search, otherwise don't blame the slave family for not giving face to the military master. ”
"Oh, little lady, this is the mother worm who came down from the mountain, and she actually shouted at the masters, come to someone, search for Lao Tzu, and if there is resistance, pull it out and pick up her pants and spank; Hahaha. "That head deliberately took off his pants and spanked and said lewd. Swinging incomparably, his eyes were aimed at the lower bodies of seven or eight women, and he looked squinting.
"The emperor actually raised you shameless people to guard the people, it's really a waste of food and money." Yan Biyun said angrily.
"Little lady, be careful when you speak, you obstruct in every way, Bendu has reason to suspect that you are harboring important criminals, brothers, you are still stunned, quickly search for Lao Tzu."
The head was shouted at the motionless soldiers beside him, but the more than twenty soldiers looked at me, I looked at you, and no one wanted to move.
"Fuck, what are you thinking, looking for a fight?" The head of the capital scolded angrily.
"Dutou ......" a box soldier stepped forward and whispered in his ear: "You can't make a mistake, who are you this little lady?" ”
"Fuck, who the hell is she?"
"She is the female owner of Hefeng Building......"
"So what? Is the female proprietor of Hefeng Lou bigger than Lao Tzu? ”
"That's not the case, she is the niece of Lord Yan, the third envoy today, this matter is known to the whole city, no one dares to offend her, and the prefect will give him a little thin face when he comes, you have just been transferred from a foreign country, I am afraid that you don't understand the situation......"
"Silk ......" was numb in the scalp, and said in his heart: No wonder it is so horizontal, it turned out to be the niece of Lord Sansi, fortunately he didn't make any out-of-the-ordinary moves, if he was like the family on the street corner, he rushed in and took advantage of the chaos to touch the milk of a few little ladies who didn't have time to get dressed. Son, it's strange that the three divisions don't chop themselves into meat sauce.
"This ...... The little lady is invited, the warrant is here, please look at it, I have to do it when I am ordered to search, and I also ask the little lady to cooperate. Dutou immediately changed his tone, and suddenly changed from a hooligan ruffian to a good law-abiding young man.
Yan Biyun said coldly: "This is like the appearance of a big Song Xiang soldier, you can search, you are not allowed to touch anything in my house, the slave family knows that some people like to take sheep by the hand, but every ornament in the slave house is worth a lot, if it is broken or missing, the slave family will sue you to the government." ”
"What are these words, are we taking advantage of the fire to rob? The dignified Song Dynasty soldiers live up to the emperor's ......"
Yan Biyun interrupted Nadutou's confession, and said coldly: "Come on, let your soldiers hide the things in their arms first, and then talk about it, they are all bulging and exposed, and they still swear to the slave family here; Other people's slaves can't take care of it, and it's better for you to behave in the slave's house; If something happens, the slave family is afraid that you won't be able to eat and walk around; That's all it takes, don't blame the slave family for being unpredictable. ”
Nadu turned his head to look at the soldiers around him, one by one the things stuffed in his arms, a few strings of jewelry were obviously stuffed in a hurry, and they were still half exposed and swaying back and forth outside, and suddenly he was angry, and he slapped each of those fools, and shouted: "Let you rabbit cubs take advantage of the fire to rob and ruin the reputation of our soldiers, and then personally send them back to kowtow to make amends, do you hear?" ”
Several soldiers hurriedly stuffed the jewels tightly, nodded and said, "Yes, yes, I will definitely send it back to make amends, and I won't dare to do it again." ”
Yan Biyun watched them play coldly, the sarcasm in his eyebrows was undoubtedly revealed, and he waved his hand and said: "Go in and search for five people, who wants to take advantage of the fire to rob, Lao Tzu will split him alive, and the rest of the people are waiting in line here." ”
Five soldiers came out of the queue and carried torches into the house to search, and the head of the head laughed and said: "Is the little lady satisfied with this arrangement?" ”
Yan Biyun said coldly: "But don't disturb the people." ”
Dutou said with a smile: "That's natural, it's a helpless act to be ordered, otherwise in the middle of the night, the cold wind will be cold, who wants to come and run around the streets?" ”
Yan Biyun's face was slightly pale, and his tone was a little slower: "The slave family understands that it is not easy to come and make a pot of hot tea to warm up the military masters. ”
Du Tou was flattered and thanked him, Xiao Xian'er reluctantly brought a pot of hot tea, took a few big bowls and poured a bowl each, the soldiers were really thirsty, Gu Dong Dong Niu drank into the stomach, Xiao Xian'er rolled her eyes, and wasted a pot of good tea in vain.
Yan Biyun asked casually: "Which important offender are you taking here, military masters?" What happened? ”
Nadu put down the tea bowl, wiped the water stains on the side of his mouth, and said casually: "Who the hell knows?" ”
Yan Biyun frowned slightly and looked at him in surprise, all of them were shocked and speechless, and hurriedly said, "Hmm...... I heard that dozens of death row prisoners who quarried stones escaped from the Xishan Quarry Quarry, and I was afraid that they would blend into the city and cause trouble, so I ......"
Yan Biyun nodded slightly and said: "It's strange, Xishan is outside the city, and the death row prisoner escaped and ran to the city to find his own way to die, this death row prisoner's brain is really not good." ”
Dutou's face turned red, and he coughed and looked up into the house, and the five soldiers ran out one after another, and reported: "Yudutou, there is nothing unusual in the house, and no trace of the important culprit has been found." ”
The head said: "But you have taken a closer look?" ”
The five of them all said: "I have seen the firewood and grass piles in the backyard under the bed, and there is nothing unusual." ”
Du Tou arched his hand towards Yan Biyun and said: "It should be like this, bother the little lady, I will wait for this and go elsewhere, the responsibility of disturbance, please Haihan." ”
Yan Biyun returned the salute and said: "The military masters are polite, come here, take some money and silver to drink for the military masters, and it is not easy to watch three watches in the middle of the night." ”
The servants offered ten large sums of money, and they all said excuses, but their hands were busy grabbing the money bags, and with a wave of their hands, they left noisily with the soldiers.
Yan Biyun's smooth forehead was dripping with beads of sweat, and he took a breath and commanded softly: "Close the courtyard door, immediately invite the old lady back to the room, the cellar is cold, damp and moldy, the old lady is afraid that she can't stand it." ”
The people also breathed a sigh of relief and obeyed the order.
