Chapter 272: Warning
Su Jin got up very late, his mind was very messy last night, and the soju in his stomach was troubled, and he didn't fall asleep until the third watch, and after getting up and washing, his head was still groggy.
After Huanniang served him and finished washing, he brought a plate of dim sum and made a pot of green tea and placed it on the small table in the courtyard, Su Jin leaned on the chair, sat in the early winter sunshine and slowly drank tea and ate dim sum.
Huanniang was holding the needle and thread and embroidering the sachet on the side, and the sound of gently pulling the thread and the clinking sound of the jade bracelet on his hand made Su Jin feel very comfortable, he squinted his eyes and chewed the snack slowly, and asked, "Why is it so quiet today?" What about Sui'er and Mahan? ”
Huanniang looked down at the half-rusted lotus on the purse, and said softly: "Sui'er took a few of them to the street, and there are a lot of things to be added to the house, so let the big brother of the dynasty help move things." ”
Su Jin nodded and said, "No wonder it's so quiet, it's so rare, why didn't you go?" ”
Huanniang smiled: "The slave family doesn't like to run, and besides, the son is at home, and someone must serve him." ”
Su Jin smiled and said, "Running around with me, it's weird and tired, right?" I don't want to do that, but people can't help it. ”
Huanniang blushed and said: "It's nothing, where is the son, where is the slave family's home, the slave family is very satisfied." ”
Su Jin sighed, reached over and took her little hand and stroked it gently, Huanniang wanted to withdraw her hand, but Su Jin grabbed it tightly, and then bowed her head and accepted her fate.
There was an evil fire in Su Jin's heart that slowly rose, and his breathing gradually accelerated, and Huanniang also seemed to feel something, her face hung lower, red like a big red cloth; Su Jin was thinking about whether to take advantage of the fact that no one was eating this beauty now, when he suddenly heard a rapid knock on the door of the courtyard, which startled the two of them who were in the ambiguity.
Su Jin raised his voice and said, "Who is outside the door?" ”
There was no sound outside the door, Su Jin got up and walked to the door, stretched out his hand to open the door, the outside was empty, and a little white dog was frightened and barked a few times, and escaped far away.
Su Jin looked around, the alley was empty, and the hustle and bustle on the street in the distance came to his ears, which seemed both distant and real.
Huanniang also got up and came to the door and asked, "Who is it?" ”
Su Jin shook his head and said, "No one, maybe it's a kitten or a puppy that knocked on the door a few times." ”
Huanniang was about to turn around, but suddenly her body stiffened, and she pulled Su Jin's arm and said in a panic: "Son, look." ”
Su Jin looked down her finger and saw a delicate small dagger inserted into the door panel, and a plain note was inserted on the dagger.
Su Jin was startled, stretched out his hand to protect Huanniang behind him, his eyes wandered around, and he shouted: "Where is your friend, what are you doing sneakily?" ”
There was no sound in all directions, and Su Jin shouted twice, but did not get the slightest response; Quickly stretched out his hand and pulled out the dagger, turned around and entered the courtyard, bolted the door tightly, pulled Huanniang into the main room, and bolted the door of the main room firmly, and then took down the plain paper under the dagger and unfolded it.
The small characters on the plain note are crooked, and they read: "At the feet of the Son of Heaven, he also dares to play tricks and hurt people, disaster is coming, and it is impossible to persuade the monarch to leave this place as soon as possible." ”
Su Jin took a breath of cold air, quickly read the note, and lowered his head in contemplation; Huanniang said with a white face: "Son, this is the note sent by the person yesterday, it seems that they have found us." ”
Su Jin shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be them, if he comes to find trouble, why bother to get a note to scare us." ”
"Perhaps...... Maybe they're saluting before they are soldiers. ”
Su Jin smiled and said: "Where is the salute before the soldiers, should you be at war between the two countries or the two factions?" It's just a bunch of ruffians. ”
Huanniang blushed and said, "Who is that?" Is it deliberately to scare us? ”
Su Jin said: "If it's just to scare and scare, we don't have to pay attention to it, it means that they don't have the guts, I am not scared, how can I say that I can be regarded as a person who has seen strong winds and waves, listen to the steward of the hook fence, the person who beat him yesterday is Xia Zhu's nephew, not like a person who is afraid of things, is it possible that they really want to retaliate?" ”
Huanniang said: "No matter what, we have to be careful, and I don't know who gave us a warning in advance." ”
Su Jin picked up the note and sniffed it, looked at it carefully, and said slowly: "I guess this note was written by an acquaintance." ”
Huanniang said: "How can you see it? The words on it are crooked, and you can't recognize the handwriting at all, how can you judge it? ”
Su Jin shook his head and said: "It is precisely because the words on the note are crooked and twisted that it makes me believe that it is a warning from a familiar person, and I must be afraid that I will recognize the handwriting. The note smells of incense powder, so it's a woman. ”
Huanniang pondered: "Female...... Familiar people...... is kind enough to warn, it is definitely not Miss Yan, she doesn't need to hide her head and tail so much, even if it is a joke, it is not in line with her character; If it weren't for her......"
Su Jin said suspiciously: "Who are you talking about?" ”
Huanniang glanced at Su Jin and said, "The man is forgetful, Miss Xia, who has been with you for months and lives in the same courtyard, has she forgotten it so quickly?" ”
Su Jin patted his head and said: "It's her, it must be her, he is Xia Zhu's daughter, this Liu Gongzi is Xia Zhu's nephew, maybe he planned revenge at home and was heard by Xia Siling, so he sent someone to warn me, that's right, it's her, she is afraid that I will recognize her words." ”
Huanniang smiled and said: "It seems that this Miss Xia is really good to the son, and Baba's cousin will help you instead of helping him." ”
Su Jin's heart moved, speechless; Xia Siling knew that she had come to the capital, but she didn't come to see herself, this was her residual anger at herself, but she sent someone to warn her, although the note was disrespectful, but the affection was clear at a glance.
Su Jin had mixed feelings in his heart, twisting the note and being silent.
Huanniang was not in a daze, she hurriedly checked all the portals everywhere, and I didn't know where to take two wooden sticks, stuffed one in Su Jin's hand, Su Jin said: "What is this for?" ”
"When a weapon, if a bad guy really comes, it's good to resist for a while, and when the big brother of the dynasty comes back, he won't be afraid."
Su Jin smiled dumbly and said, "Who can the two of us prevent, don't joke." ”
Huanniang said: "Then what should I do?" ”
Su Jin took her hand and said: "Thirty-six plans are the best policy, let's go out quickly, and wait for them on the crowded road, I won't be stupid and wait for them to come to the door." ”
The two hurriedly walked out of the main room, opened the courtyard door and walked down the street, and as soon as they took two steps, they heard someone say in a weird way: "Su Jin, Su Gongzi, where are you going?" ”
Su Jin looked back, and several figures flashed behind the thick mulberry trunk behind him, led by Liu Binhua, who was like a pig who he scalded with boiling water yesterday, followed by seven or eight big men with horizontal arms.
"Run." Su Jin grabbed Huanniang's hand and ran to the front alley, and a whistle came from behind him, and more than a dozen men with sticks suddenly appeared in the oblique ground, blocking the road ahead.
"Can you run away, I will kneel down and kowtow to you, wasn't it quite horizontal yesterday? What's going on today? Liu Binhua teased in his mouth, and led people to surround him, surrounding Su Jin and Huanniang.
Su Jin secretly complained bitterly, protected Huanniang behind him, and while thinking of a way to get out, he shouted in his mouth: "What are you going to do in broad daylight?" This is at the feet of the Son of Heaven. ”
"Bah, why didn't you say that it was at the feet of the Son of Heaven when you poured boiling water on your grandfather yesterday?" Liu Binhua's face was colorful, and he spat at Su Jin.
"In this way, you are looking for me, and let go of my maid, she has nothing to do with this matter."
"Do you want to be beautiful, let her go and call someone? Besides, she laughed the happiest yesterday, and she didn't want to leave one of them today. ”
A fat and burly man with a meaty face said dissatisfiedly: "Liu Gongzi, if you have any ideas, hurry up, I still have a mess of things, Xiao Yunzi in the east second compartment is also going to find a place today, I have to rush to help, the price of others is higher than yours, you still want to fight or money, or play this little lady to Lao Tzu quickly, Lao Tzu has no time to listen to your ramblings." ”
A trace of displeasure flashed on Liu Binhua's face and said, "Boss Hua, are you so impatient to help your master do something?" Ye takes care of you on weekdays, if it weren't for Ye covering, would you be able to mix the wind in this left second box? It's really annoying the master, tell my uncle, tell Kaifeng Mansion to take all of you quickly, and pull a hair with Lao Tzu? ”
Hua Lao scolded and said: "Don't take your mother's uncle out to set up a score, my lord and I have been in the capital for so many years, it's not who can take it if you want to, but for the sake of your filial piety to Lao Tzu on weekdays, the price this time is also fair, let's not talk to you about these useless things, let's say, to what extent?" As long as no one dies, my old flower will satisfy you. ”
Liu Binhua said: "This is still like a human saying, I removed one of his arms for the master, you don't care about this woman, the master will deal with her." ”
Boss Hua rolled his eyes and scolded: "Virtue, do you want the right arm or the left arm?" ”
Liu Binhua said: "Which hand to eat wants which." ”
"Well, that's the right arm." Boss Hua strode forward, stared at Su Jin with a big fat face full of beard and said seriously: "Brother, I'm sorry, let's use people's money to eliminate disasters for others, your arm is going to be decided today, don't complain about the master, the master has no enmity with you, just doing things." ”
After that, he stretched out his hand to take Su Jin's right arm, and several big men around him also stepped forward to prevent Su Jin from resisting; Huanniang almost fainted when she saw this battle, at this moment she called every day should not, called the earth and the earth not spiritual, and I am afraid that the arm of the prince will not be able to be saved.
