"My lord, you..."
Peng Liang choked up for a moment, "It is Peng's luck to have the honor to follow you. It's also a good thing that I have no family anymore."
"Yes, it's a good thing you are gone. Otherwise, it would all be ruined because of your loyalty to me."
Di Ying smiled and continued.
Peng Liang: "..."
For a moment, he couldn't cry or laugh, and he didn't know what the right emotion was.
The adults in his family always have this kind of ability: the ability to regulate people's emotions.
…
As soon as morning came, according to the agreement, Nie Bo and Fang Bin disguised themselves as vendors selling vegetables and firewood, each carrying a load and shouting, passing by the door of the second-entry courtyard.
When the two passed by, they looked at each other.
Then, one person stopped not far to the left of the gate of the small courtyard, and the other was diagonally opposite, unloading his load not far from the gate.
Keep shouting.
This is waiting for Peng Liang to come out and explain the next step to them.
The forty guards were so idle that their hair grew long.
I come to ask for orders every day, and all I hear every day is: stand by.
Nie Bo pulled out a piece of firewood and drew circles on the ground while shouting boredly.
Fang Bin sat on the ground, took out an orange from the vegetable basket, and slowly peeled the orange peel.
But a quarter of an hour had passed since the appointed time. Fang Bin had finished peeling off all the tangerine strands and had eaten two. Peng Liang hadn't come out yet.
Nie Bo couldn't wait any longer.
I dragged an old man who wanted to buy firewood away from me, and offered to give the firewood away, and also asked him to pick someone up. The old man was so enthusiastic that he was confused and led the way to his home.
But as soon as I turned the corner, the firewood seller disappeared.
The old man was honest, so he sat on the firewood pile and waited.
Nie Bo was also frightened after climbing over the wall.
Where are people? Where are the adults in his family?
He was also stupid, even though everyone was gone, he still climbed over the wall the same way he came, ready to find Fang Bin.
Being grabbed by the old man, Nie Bo gave the opponent a tael of silver with his backhand, and then ran away.
When I ran to Fang Bin, I remembered: Why didn't I go through the door? Why don't you blow the whistle?
When Fang Bin heard Nie Bo say: There were only a few corpses of men in black, he rushed into the small courtyard in high spirits.
There were signs of fighting in the house, and there was blood everywhere. Some of the men in black were hacked to death, and some were poisoned.
Fang Bin searched everywhere on the man in black and found nothing that could represent his identity.
"It's okay, sir."
Fang Bin spoke to comfort Nie Bo, who was also rummaging around but impatiently tore the clothes of the corpse into pieces.
When Nie Bo heard this, he glared and said, "I know it's okay. Wasn't this poison administered by the master? But where has the master gone? Search, search quickly, Peng Tou'er will definitely leave a mark for us." "
Unfortunately, no.
I searched everywhere but couldn't find it.
Fang Bin was so anxious that he broke out in a sweat.
As a result, a scream of "ah" was heard.
It turned out that it was the honest old man who was very confused when he saw people bringing firewood and returning silver, and ran after Nie Bo.
It’s just that the old man is slow and still carries firewood.
then……
"Ahhhh, murder!"
He stumbled out shouting.
Fang Bin rolled his little eyes at Nie Bo and signaled the other party to follow him and retreat quickly.
The two of them ran far away before hearing a huge gong sound near the city gate.
"Bang!"
"The governor of Jiangnan, Lord Di, have arrived!"
"Quiet! Avoid!"
"Bang!"
"The governor of Jiangnan, Lord Di, have arrived!"
"..."
Nie Bo scratched his scalp, "Fake?"
These movements only occur when civil servants are out on the streets.
In the front are those who blow gongs to clear the way; then there are those who clean the streets and clear obstacles; then there are those holding signs of silence and avoidance, and those holding flags with the official's surname; in the middle are officials; behind there are those holding signs and flags, and finally there is a team soldier.
On both sides of the official's sedan were guards. If there are lower-ranking officials following, they will be behind the sedan.
I have never heard of Mr. Di going out in such a big way. Nie Bo's first reaction was: someone is pretending to be an adult of their family.
Fang Bin narrowed his eyes, pointed his chin that way, raised his feet and said, "Is that true? Just go and take a look and you will know."
Saw it.
From the formal guard of honor of the second-grade civil servants, they walked swaggering through the street with a "bang bang bang". The people stepped aside one after another.
Some people looked surprised, some looked confused, some were excited, some were curious, some were angry, some were hostile, some were despised...
Some people opened their mouths wide.
They had seen the young man with a handsome face and eyebrows sitting in the eight-carriage sedan!
When Fang Bin and Nie Bo saw that they were really adults, their jaws almost dropped to the floor.
They were sure it wasn't a fake.
Because Mr. Di and Da Ma were sitting in the sedan chair, and Peng Liang was following on horseback in front of the sedan chair.
Dark Cloud was riding with his saddle empty, looking around curiously as he walked.
When Nie Bo saw the dark clouds, he wanted to rush up to find his master, but Fang Bin held him back.
"We are not dressed properly now, and if we go out, we will only embarrass you. Let's go, gather the people in the team, put on the guard uniforms, and then go to find the master. The master is heading to the government office for this battle."
Nie Boy turned around and asked as he ran, "Where did the honor guard come from? Why are they all so embarrassed?"
"What do you care about?"
Fang Bin hurriedly went back to change his clothes, and replied angrily: "My lord, what can we do if we want to do something?"
Nie Bo: "...Don't bully me into being stupid. You can't find someone to pretend to be an honor guard. And can others understand?"
When Fang Bin heard this, he pushed him, "Oh, you have so many concerns. Run away quickly. With Peng Tou beside you, it's too dangerous to run straight to the government office like this."
Before he finished speaking, Nie Bo had already jumped out.
All at once.
Everyone was watching quietly, but these two guys turned around and ran away. Wu Yun blinked his dark eyes and looked over.
Yo ho, one of our own?
Okay, Wu Yun raised his neck and called out twice.
Di Ying glanced at Wu Yun and then in the direction of Nie Bo, then withdrew his gaze and continued to sit calmly.
To be honest, traveling in this posture is really majestic, but it is also very tiring.
Sitting made his back hurt.
The honor guard is not fake.
It was really used by His Majesty to reward Di Ying and patrol the south of the Yangtze River.
It's just that as Mr. Di's honor guard, it's a bit miserable. I chased him all the way and finally got to Hangzhou Station last night.
How did you chase him? There are marks along the way.
This was a private agreement between Di Ying and the leader of the honor guard.
It's not that Di Ying wanted to bring the guard of honor, but it was given by His Majesty himself for the purpose of knowing where Di Ying had gone.
If not?
If there is no place to put it, it will make His Majesty angry; if it is needed, it will only be a trouble for Di Ying.
So let them follow the marks and chase slowly.
The guards had never met them before, so they didn't know them.
At half past nine o'clock today, Di Ying, who had bandaged his wounds, figured that the honor guard should arrive, so he hurried to the inn.
He felt it was time to show his face seriously.
