Early the next morning, Yang Wei steamed a lot of multigrain steamed buns and steamed buns, and enthusiastically gave some to them. The Qin family also benefited from it, and everyone had a big steamed bun or steamed bun.
When Zhao Long saw this, his eyes rolled around.
When we set off, everyone was together, but Yang Wei's side was full of carriages, and the nobles were also riding in carriages. It was not easy to be too obvious, so they rushed ahead.
The two sides distanced themselves.
Zhao Long was confused.
Lu Songli's expression did not change.
But at noon, when Lu Songli and his party arrived at the planned resting place, they saw that Yang Wei and others had already parked the carriage and were burying pots and making rice here.
Seeing them, Yang Wei quickly greeted them, "Brother Xu, what a coincidence, we meet again. We are preparing to have dinner. If you don't mind, can we all have some together?"
Xu Zheng looked at him silently: No, little brother, you are so obvious, do you know?
"Come on, come on, everyone, sit down, Xiao Wu, put up the table, and bring the food to you all!" Yang Wei shouted in a loud voice, "It goes on day by day, and I don't have any eyesight at all!"
Yang Wei asked someone to serve them a pot of bacon stewed with cabbage and a dozen white flour steamed buns, which was enough.
After waiting for the food to be served, he stood aside and said in a pretentious manner, "Brother Xu, look, we still have a lot of food left here. Can you ask them to help us eliminate some of it? Those noble people are like little birds. I just eat one or two chopsticks of any dish and stop eating it. Isn’t this a waste? It’s a pity that my guys and I are full and can’t eat anymore.”
Xu Zheng waved his hand feebly, "Whatever you want."
Yang Wei felt relieved and had another meal! He quickly sent someone to deliver food to the Qin family.
Zhao Long looked over and saw that the younger brother had brought two large basins over. They simply separated the dry and wet ones. They looked like a hodgepodge, which was in line with Mr. Yang's statement that he had used a couple of chopsticks. look.
Lu Mingzhi, Mo Bing, Liu Erxi and others were all in the carriage and hardly saw Xu Zheng and others.
The Qin family ate in silence.
Xu Zheng called Yang Wei over and said to him while eating, "...you have a carriage, so you can go faster. After walking such a long distance in a day, when will you arrive at Lelang County?"
Xu Zheng was hinting wildly. Your carriage can travel three to four hundred miles a day, but it's not enough for you to have only traveled twenty miles in half a day.
Yang Wei understood and said with a dry smile, "There is no way, the nobles can't stand the bumps, so we can only walk for a while and rest. Maybe after some time, the nobles get used to it, and we can travel more in a day."
He burst into tears inside, he didn't want to, really. He has to rack his brains to feed people every meal. Is it easy for him?
After eating and drinking, the two parties set out on the road again. Yang Wei Escort's convoy ran ahead of them again.
But when Lu Songli and the others arrived at their expected accommodation, a dilapidated house, they happened to meet Yang Wei and others again.
Xu Zheng was speechless when he looked at Yang Wei.
Yang Wei touched his nose and said coquettishly, "Xu Yasi, one of the horses in our escort agency got diarrhea for some unknown reason, so we had to stop and rest."
"Look, that's the horse. It's legs are so weak that it can't walk, let alone pull a cart. We can't just leave it alone, can we?" Yang Wei pointed to the front hooves tied to the eaves and was already kneeling on the ground. The horse said distressedly.
Xu Zheng glanced at it, then looked away silently, saying in his heart, OK, this is a good excuse, as long as you are happy.
So that night, there was another sumptuous dinner, and the Qin family took advantage of it and had delicious food.
Zhao Long seemed to be sure of something now, with a sneer on his face.
The other officers looked at me in private, and I looked at you, and they all vaguely guessed something, but Xu Yasi didn't say anything, so they just pretended that they didn't know anything.
After dinner, the three brothers of the Qin family bumped heads with Lu Songli while the guards were not paying attention.
Qin Heng and Lu Songli talked quietly, while Qin Zhao and Qin Sheng were having fun.
"Sixth brother and sister, it's too obvious. Can you send a message to your people?" Qin Heng whispered.
Lu Songli's heart moved, "What?"
"The other officers are all fine, but that Zhao Long has to—" Qin Heng made a clicking gesture.
Lu Songli looked at him quite surprised. His expression was cold and solemn, which did not match his elegant temperament.
Qin Heng smiled and understood the meaning in her eyes. As the saying goes, kindness cannot lead an army, and he is by no means a kind-hearted person. The fourth child is gone, the father is gone, and the Qin family can no longer bear the loss of anyone. Since this Zhao Long has bad intentions, we have no choice but to ask him to die. Isn't it normal for someone to die on this exile road, whether he is a prisoner or a prisoner? And who stipulates that only prisoners can die?
Lu Songli was also thinking of ways to get rid of him without leaving a trace. There was no need to think about someone behind this person.
It was so obvious to the people in Yang Wei Escort that he still dared to do evil. There was no other explanation except that there was someone behind him.
The Qin and Lu families had no selfish grudge against him, even if it was for money. All the servants had taken care of themselves before setting off, and the Qin family was completely destitute. At this time, he was still thinking about dealing with them. Apart from the pitfalls in his mind, the people behind him offered him benefits that he couldn't refuse.
"Brother, how are you going to deal with him?"
What Qin Heng meant was to find an opportunity to knock him out while he was outside and let him freeze to death outside.
Lu Songli felt that his method was still a bit risky, and it might also implicate Xu Zheng. Furthermore, as Zhao Long is the deputy chief of police, if he is away for too long, Xu Zheng will definitely ask other officers to go out and look for someone.
It would be better to let him die quietly in his sleep.
Lu Songli explained her method.
"This method is good, but is it really possible?" This method is unheard of. Can it really make Zhao Long die in his sleep?
"Try it. If it doesn't work, use your method again."
"also."
At this time, Lu Songli's expression was slightly hesitant.
"What's wrong?"
Lu Songli glanced at the three brothers of the Qin family, and finally her eyes fell on Qin Sheng, "Brother, don't you think I am cruel and ruthless?" Well, although she is indeed, but, she still has some thoughts. Know what they think.
Qin Sheng looked puzzled.
Qin Zhao: Sixth brother and sister, you have always been like this, and our whole family knows it. Even if you don't know, you will know what happened to the Xie and Zhao families when they were released from prison. Isn't it a little late for you to worry about this problem now?
Qin Heng laughed, "Whether a person is ruthless or not depends not on the means she uses, but on her purpose. I also want to kill Zhao Long, and I have also figured out a specific way to implement it. Aren't I just as ruthless?"
"For so many years of guarding the northern border, my hands are stained with blood and human lives. Well, our Qin family are all like this. Even Asheng also has the lives of many foreigners on his hands, so what can I say? "
Early the next morning, after Yang Wei Escort arranged breakfast for everyone, the two parties set off again.
Xu Zheng and others were left behind again. Just when everyone thought that today was a repeat of yesterday's script, at noon, the people from Yang Wei Escort unexpectedly met again by chance in front of them without waiting.
After eating several good meals in a row, the Qin family was fine when they suddenly had to eat their own dry food, but the guards were not used to it.
When they arrived at the inn where they planned to stay in the evening, they found that the entire inn had been booked generously by Yang Wei Escort.
Today is the 24th of the twelfth lunar month, New Year's Eve, it's freezing and snowy, and there are not many people in the inn.
Yang Wei still warmly entertained them to eat and drink, and also prepared six rooms for Xu Zheng and other custodians. Two of them are upper rooms, which are the warmest upper rooms in the entire inn, because they are in the middle of the inn, and the doors and windows are closed. , almost airtight.
Zhao Long was very satisfied with this. Feng Dian had been sleeping outdoors for several days, and now it was great to sleep in the upper room of the inn for one night.
At night, Zhao Long was sleeping soundly in the upper room he chose. There was originally a charcoal basin in the room, but at some point, another one was added. At the same time, the doors and windows in his room were closed tightly.
The next day, he didn't get up. Other guards had to knock on his door, but no one answered. Later, after forcing the door open, he discovered that he was dead.
