Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 353 Where Did I Go Wrong? (4100)

"This……"

Sun Ye was already a loner at first, and then he was instructed by the "God of the River" to learn the truth about the "curse" in the "Gong Shu Jing", and he has long since lost the belief in living. In his opinion, it is best to apologize with death. home.

Unexpectedly, when he encountered such a coincidence, he suddenly transformed into a key person related to Huang Yueying's lifelong happiness...

Sun Ye was also unexpected.

Facing Huang Chengyan's unfriendly but sincere "request", Sun Ye subconsciously looked at Huang Yueying, the little girl he had risked his life to save.

In his whole life, he had only devoted his life to such a person.

It is also because of this that he has already developed an inexplicable affection for Huang Yueying... She is his last salvation, the only pure land in his heart, and he even feels as if he is his own.

Therefore, he sincerely hoped that Huang Yueying would be happy for the rest of her life, so it would be more meaningful for him to sacrifice his life to save her.

"..."

Huang Yueying was also looking at him, her eyes full of expectations and requests.

After being silent for a while, Sun Ye finally nodded, but insisted: "Since it is Mr. Huang's intention, the villain will have to live for another three years, but one yard is worth one yard. The villain dare not expect Mr. Huang to let go of the past." , after Mr. Zhuge and Miss Hun'er get married, the villain will commit suicide and apologize in front of the Huang family, and he will never break his promise!"

"Huang has made it clear that he will cancel it with you, but if you still want to commit suicide and apologize at that time, that is your business, and Huang will not stop it."

Huang Chengyan said lukewarmly.

The resentment in his heart was not so easy to dispel, such a decision was just a helpless decision for Huang Yueying's lifelong happiness.

"The villain knows."

Sun Ye lowered his head slightly and said nothing more.

"Since that's the case, I will take away Sun Ye. On the day when Miss Hun'er is married, I will bring Zhuge Xiandi and Sun Ye back together to complete the marriage together with Mr. Huang and the two wives."

Wu Liang took the opportunity to take over the conversation, and turned around to gesture to Dian Wei again.

Dian Wei knowingly presented a wooden box prepared in advance. The wooden box was heavy, and it contained some of the gold objects brought out from the Chumu Cemetery earlier, weighing about ten catties.

"This is the betrothal gift I prepared for Brother Zhuge, please accept it with a smile from Mr. Huang and the two wives."

Wu Liang said with a smile.

Today, the situation in Xiangyang City is fairly stable, and inflation is much lighter than those places where there have been years of wars. Therefore, this gold can not only solve the current predicament of the Huang family, but also provide some initial funds for it, and improve the Huang family's life. standard of living.

This was Wu Liang's first compensation to the Huang family.

"This……"

Huang Chengyan felt the weight of the wooden box when he bought it, so he couldn't help opening it and took a look, which startled him, and quickly declined, "Captain Wu, you can't do it, you can't do it , you gave too much..."

Rao, the Huang family used to be well-off, and Huang Chengyan is not an uninformed person, but such a lot of gold is not something that can be seen casually.

"Mr. Huang thinks my sincerity is not worth the sincerity of my younger brother Zhuge, or is Miss Hun'er not worthy?"

Wu Liang asked with a smile.

"Of course not... If Captain Wu insists on this, Huang will be more respectful than obedient."

Huang Chengyan was stunned for a moment when he was asked, but when it came to this point, seeing Wu Liang's smile of a land rich man with nearly a million people, he could only accept it in surprise and joy.

"Yang Wanli, go and buy some wine and meat. Tonight we will rest in Huang's mansion. We must have a drink with Mr. Huang and his two wives to celebrate Zhuge's engagement with Miss Hu'er. We will leave tomorrow morning."

Wu Liang turned around and said to Yang Wanli.

"promise!"

Yang Wanli responded, and hurried to do so.

Everyone was also quite happy, this trip has been out for a long time, everyone has experienced a lot of dangers together, now is the time to relax.

"How can I teach Lieutenant Wu to spend money again? It's Huang who should do his best to be a landlord..."

Huang Chengyan came to his senses and hurriedly stopped Yang Wanli.

"It's already my family, Mr. Huang doesn't need to see outsiders."

But Wu Liang had already held his hand and pulled him aside, lowered his voice and said solemnly: "Mr. Huang, I still have something to explain to you, and this matter is not trivial."

"What's the matter?"

Huang Chengyan looked puzzled, and quickly put away his smile and asked in a low voice.

"I came to Xiangyang City on this trip to do a secret thing under the order of General Liu, so the accompanying soldiers stayed outside the city, and only brought these cronies with me."

Wu Liang said seriously, "So although General Liu ordered me to visit Mr. Huang, I also hope that Mr. Huang will not publicize this matter, let alone ask indiscriminately. Otherwise, if his whereabouts are exposed, General Liu's plan may be ruined. It's not easy for me to explain to General Liu, does Mr. Huang understand what I mean?"

"I see, Huang understands!"

Huang Chengyan nodded hastily, and said seriously, "Later, I will instruct my wife, Huan'er, and Hun'er not to mention this matter in front of outsiders. None of our family has ever met Captain Wu."

"exactly."

Wu Liang laughed.

In this way, the last hidden danger is also eliminated, and this is naturally for the consideration of the Huang family.

After tonight, Wu Liang and Huan Renjun patted their buttocks and left. Even if someone mentions him in the future, it is absolutely impossible to do anything to him.

But the Huang family is different.

If the Huang family spread the word about this matter everywhere, and someone found out his origins with the Huan army, then the Huang family would have a relationship with Boss Cao. Therefore, it brought some troubles to the Huang family, and even killed them.

When Wu Liang does things, he tries his best to have a beginning and an end, and to cover everything.

Otherwise, good things eventually turn into bad things, but the gains outweigh the losses.

"It's not too late. Huang and his wife will clean up the guest rooms for you, and explain this to them by the way?"

Huang Chengyan is also a cautious person, and then he said again.

Wu Liang cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Then there will be Mr. Lao Huang."

……

The next day.

Wu Liang led the backbone of the Huan army and a half-disabled Sun Ye back to Deng County, then ordered the Huan army soldiers to pack up their belongings, and set foot on the return journey not long after.

Of course, Zhuge Liang's family also followed in the army.

This return journey was relatively easy for the Huren army, because they did not carry anything particularly valuable in their convoy.

At least not on the surface, like the "wooden cattle and horses" and bamboo slips carried out from the Chumu Cemetery, and the rusty chisels collected from the Gongshu Tomb, these things are not valuable in the eyes of outsiders Shit, if someone really comes to rob, there is a high probability that they will only plunder their accompanying food and horses, but ignore these inconspicuous good things.

Among them, the most likely to attract the attention of outsiders is the "Pixiu Treasure Box".

But this treasure box is not too big, so it can be easily hidden. Even the soldiers of the Huren Army who accompanied him didn't know its existence and value.

And what the soldiers of the Huren Army didn't even know.

Don't look at Wu Liang's failure to lead the Huan army back full of gold and treasures this time, but he has actually made a lot of money, so don't be too happy.

Wooden cows and horses, the art of impeachment, diamonds, continuous crossbows in the Warring States Period, a treasure box containing "Gongshu Jing", many lost bamboo slips...

There are also Zhuge Liang who is familiar with the art of war and has successfully mastered the "Eight Arrays", and Sun Ye, who is half-baked "Gongshu Jing" and has watched the lost large-scale war equipment in the Gongshu Tomb...

Wu Liang is simply making a fortune in silence, and he has completed the operation of filling his own pocket invisibly.

However, it is precisely because of this that the return journey of the soldiers of the Tuan Army is not as beautiful as before:
"It's a bit of a bad start this time. We have been out for so many days and spent so much effort. Not only did we not dig out much gold, but we didn't bring back any valuable treasures. It is tantamount to a trip in vain."

"Going back empty-handed, I'm afraid the captain will not be able to explain to the envoy..."

"The envoy shouldn't blame the captain, right? This tomb robbery is no different than others. Whether you can dig up valuable things depends on how much the owner of the tomb buried with you. This is not just a job of skill, but also a job of luck. It may be guaranteed that you will return with a full reward every time, so you should not fail to understand, right?"

"I think the captain is in a good mood, he should have already thought of a countermeasure."

"I hope so, but this time we don't expect any rewards from the envoy. It would be good not to deduct our military pay."

"Heh, you still dare to think about rewards..."

"..."

……

Chen Liucheng, Zhu Mansion, ancestral hall.

"Eat the food inside and out, and don't kneel down!"

The head of the family, Zhu Xun, kicked him, and kicked Zhu Lu, the third son of Zhu who had become a brother of different surnames with Wu Liang, to his knees in front of the ancestral tablet, cursing furiously.

"Father, forgive me, I know I was wrong..."

While shivering, Zhu Lu cried and begged for mercy.

"Say! Where did you go wrong?"

Zhu Xun kicked his ass again and asked sharply.

"I was wrong... I was wrong... uh..."

Zhu Lu turned his head quickly, but unfortunately he still didn't say what Zhu Xun wanted to hear after talking for a long time, but showed a dazed look on his face.

"See if I don't beat you to death!"

Seeing Zhu Lu's appearance, Zhu Xun was even more angry, his cheeks flicked, he turned around and picked up a whip to enforce the family law on him.

"Gentleman calm down, don't get angry!"

Seeing this, a middle-aged woman hurried up to grab Zhu Xun and tried to persuade him, "Yongkang has been honest and honest since he was a child, but his temper is still a little weak. He must have been bewitched and coerced by the words of the new county magistrate, so he did it." If these stupid things happen, please let the gentleman forgive Yongkang for his youth and ignorance."

"Young and ignorant?"

It's okay not to mention this, but when it was mentioned, Zhu Xun immediately became angrier, threw the middle-aged woman away, and beat the whip on the desk next to him as hard as venting, and cursed sharply, "This naughty son is now gone!" Twenty-one, when I was his age, I was already in charge, even his brothers of the same age are also reliable in handling things now, I can feel at ease if I entrust the affairs of the Zhu family to them, why would he be young and ignorant You are also responsible for this matter. As the saying goes, "a loving mother often loses her son", if you hadn't pampered him too much and protected him in everything, how could this rebellious son dare to do such a thing like eating inside and outside? I kneel before the ancestral tablet!"

"Gentleman, ah..."

The middle-aged woman was thrown off balance by this throw, and suddenly fell heavily to the ground, as if she had knocked her elbow accidentally, she couldn't help clutching her arm and let out a cry of pain.

"Mother!"

Seeing this, Zhu Lu's expression became anxious, he who had only dared to kneel on the ground and trembled suddenly, at this moment, suddenly had the courage to stand up and rush to the side of the middle-aged woman, and asked with concern with red eyes, "Mother, are you alright? "

"It's okay, Yongkang, just kneel down and confess to your father!"

But the middle-aged woman immediately grabbed Zhu Lu's arm and pushed him to the ground, saying, "You were just bewitched by the county magistrate, right? You already know you're wrong, right? Your father promises that from now on, you will never communicate with that county magistrate again, and you will not listen to his nonsense. You will manage the Zhu family's property in Yongqiu well, which will make your father feel at ease. You should hurry up and say ah!"

In fact, apart from the three of them, there are many members of the Zhu family in the ancestral hall at this moment.

It's just that Zhu Xun, the head of the family, was furious, and the others wisely chose to remain silent, so as not to get angry.

Seeing Zhu Lu and his biological mother in such a mess now, some people not only watched with cold eyes, but also more or less wanted to watch the fun, and even felt secretly refreshed.

Among them, Zhu Lu's two older brothers, a younger brother, and their respective biological mothers are the most enjoyable.

There is a natural competitive relationship between these brothers and the wives, especially in this era, it is by no means just talk, these brothers are now adults, although according to the etiquette of the Han Dynasty, the eldest son is usually nothing Controversial family heir, but nothing is absolute, some things are still human-made.

Zhu Lu, who is so simple-minded, is naturally the most hopeless of the brothers.

Several brothers never put him in their eyes.

However, Zhu Lu's biological mother was different. She was very beautiful when she was young, and she was good at dancing with sleeves and knees. She was favored by the head of the family, Zhu Xun, so Zhu Lu had the opportunity to take charge of the Zhu family's property in Yongqiu.

It is also because of this that she has long been hated by other wives, big and small, and this kind of jealousy is still passed on to the next generation in the words and deeds of these wives.

So seeing Zhu Lu and his biological mother being punished by Zhu Xun now, they are gloating in their hearts.

Some people even raised the corners of their mouths, almost laughing out loud.

"Yongkang, you should speak quickly!"

Seeing that Zhu Lu still hesitated, the middle-aged woman was so anxious that she wanted to grab Zhu Lu's mouth and force her to speak.

She understood her husband's temper, and if Zhu Lu took the initiative to admit his mistakes and repent, there might still be a little room for maneuver.

If not, Zhu Xun might punish him for several crimes, and the consequences would be extremely serious.

The result is what no one expected.

"Mother, I also want to admit my mistake, but I did nothing wrong..."

Zhu Lu, the iron man, insisted, "More than half of our family's property has been abandoned this year. Only the property in Yongqiu County has successfully completed the spring plowing. This year's harvest will definitely not be too bad. This is good for us." , It’s not bad for the tenants, all these are done with the help of a talented brother, he is my nobleman, so no matter how I think about it, I can’t figure it out, where did I go wrong?”
