On the Difficulties of Escape in Ancient Times

"Anyway, we can't alert Sheng Qianhu, otherwise we will alert the enemy. If they unite, the government officials will not be able to stop them."

Mr. Jiang was very angry: "I only have two people over there, can you brothers take over?"

Now the world is not at peace, and my sons and grandsons are going out to buy medicinal materials.

Even though he was told that he would be escorted by someone from the prince's side, he still felt uneasy and asked all six of his family's guards to follow him.

Now the only ones he can use are his housekeeper Lao Hou and his confidant Lao Jin.

Xiao Xiao asked in confusion: "Can't the county magistrate arrange someone?"

Mr. Jiang glanced at her with an inexplicable expression: "This is an important confidential matter. If even a little bit of it is leaked, it will be a disaster that will destroy the family. The county magistrate and ordinary people dare not use it."

Even Magistrate Chen claimed to have 200 government officials and 400 police officers under his command, but he did not dare to use these people at all.

One of them is that the county magistrate is not as good as the current one.

The second is the iron-clad yamen and the smooth officials. In addition, there are hereditary petty officials. The yamen and petty officials exchange information.

In addition, County Magistrate Chen suspected that there were many spies from the guard station in the city who were watching him and the people in Chen's mansion, so he did not dare to act rashly even if he had someone under his command.

What's more, some of the few people County Magistrate Chen dared to use were sent out to work, and some were given to his two sons.

Of the remaining five people, three are recuperating from their injuries, one is protecting him, and the other was injured some time ago and is still very dedicated. Even with the injury, he is still staring at Sheng Yang in Baihua Tower.

It was not because his confidants were afraid to use the other ten nursing homes, so Magistrate Chen simply threw the hot potato to Mr. Jiang.

However, Mr. Jiang also lacked a confidant who could fight. He thought that although the Xiao brothers were not skilled in martial arts, they were courageous and had a lot of strength.

Especially when they have seen blood, they have a ruthless energy.

Furthermore, the Xiao family and the Sheng family are mortal enemies, so it is normal for the Xiao family to have members.

Xiao Lian immediately said: "Then I'll go too. I can ambush you and lay secret arrows."

Mr. Jiang's mouth twitched. This was a matter of life and death. Why could Miss Xiao Er say it as if she was rushing to the market to watch a play?

Boss Xiao's brows were almost knotted into a knot, and he glared at Xiao Lian: ""Where are you going? I'll just go with your second uncle. "

After saying that, he said to Xiao Laoer: "Go dig out the knife."

When Mr. Jiang heard what Boss Xiao said, he felt normal.

No, can the people who buried the knives be considered ordinary people?

If he didn't know a little bit about the Xiao family, he would have suspected that they were bandits.

Xiao Laoer responded and walked out.

Xiao Xiu also spoke: "Dad, our archery skills are much better than my second uncle's. Let's follow him and lay an ambush to avoid any fish slipping through the net."

"Dad, you have to admit that my archery skills are better than yours." Xiao Xiao said very matter-of-factly: "You and uncle are not very good at martial arts. With us covering you and firing cold arrows, you will be safer and have a better chance of winning."

After saying that, he called to the two sisters: "Let's all bring bows and arrows and dress warmly. If your hands are frozen, you won't be able to aim accurately. Don't shoot the wrong person without distinguishing between ourselves and the enemy."

Mr. Jiang watched the three girls from the Xiao family turn around and leave, and his jaw almost dropped in shock: "You, do you really want them to follow you?"

At first, he thought that the Xiao family was cunning and cunning. They would refuse and cheat on matters that threatened their lives. It would be enough if only one of the Xiao brothers could go.

He could understand this, after all, they were the only two pillars of the Xiao family.

I really didn’t expect that not only the Xiao brothers did not excuse themselves, but also the Xiao girls insisted on going. He was a little doubtful about their 'archery skills', but he was embarrassed to say it, so he could only advise tactfully: "There will definitely be blood later, and people may die, so why not let them go? So as not to scare them. they."

If, at a critical moment of life and death, they see their biological father or uncle injured, and their sisters are so frightened that they turn pale and can't help but scream, then they are not going to help, but adding to the chaos.

Boss Xiao also wanted to come back clean and tidy, so he did not refute his daughters. Hearing his words, he raised his head and chest with pride: "Then don't worry, they helped me a lot on the way, and they also saw too many bloody scenes. .”

"Remember back then..."

The scene on the way to rush out of the city made him a little scared when he thought about it now.

That time was the closest they came to death, and it was indeed thanks to their daughters shooting cold arrows from behind.

But he swallowed his words to show off.

He still wanted Jiang Yu as his son-in-law in his heart. What if he said it and frightened the old man?

So he changed his mind and said, "I'm not worried about my daughter. Why are you worrying so much when you just eat carrots?"

"Others are father and son soldiers in battle, but if we, father and daughter, are in battle, we will be even more powerful."

Mr. Jiang was choked and speechless.

No, he just wanted to say: Good intentions are regarded as the liver and lungs of a donkey.

After Boss Xiao finished speaking, he saw Mrs. Liu standing there holding on to the door frame. He quickly stepped forward to help her back to the room and whispered: "Don't worry, we will all come back safely. Just stew a pot of fish and add more spicy pepper." , wait for us to come back to eat.”

Mrs. Liu also nodded vigorously: "Okay, I will also prepare egg wine for you to drink when you come back. This is especially good for keeping the cold away."

She knew in her heart that if the Sheng family was not unlucky, she would be the unlucky one.

Then I can't go out with my belly full of belly and follow them to fight for my life, and I can't cry and cry at this time. It's not a good idea.

Boss Xiao felt very disgusted after hearing this. He couldn't get used to the egg wine from Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

For good rice wine, you need to add eggs and brown sugar to make it sweet and delicious, which is not as good as burning a knife.

More importantly, he heard that egg flower wine is eaten by young wives who have given birth to children in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

But he didn't dare to refute, for fear that she would burst into tears.

So he smiled at her, helped her back to her room, walked out and whispered to Lin Xuan who was guarding the door: "Take care of your aunt. If we haven't come back after two hours, you will leave immediately and go to Mingzhou." .”

This is also his worst-case scenario.

If something happened to them, it would not be safe to go to the countryside. Instead, they would go to the Lin sisters' hometown to fight.

Not to mention this journey, the Lin sisters are alive today thanks to their family.

Furthermore, Lin Xuan and Dalang were already engaged, and they were considered a family. If she didn't ask Dalang to go with them, if something happened to them, the Xiao family would rely on Dalang to take care of them.

Lin Xuan also nodded vigorously and said solemnly: "I remember, I will accompany you at home to wait for your triumphant return."

Soon, the three sisters of the Xiao family put on Zanxin's thick cotton-padded clothes and boarded the mule cart carrying their bows and arrows.

Fortunately, their mule cart was parked in the yard, otherwise they would never dare to go out with their bows and arrows on their backs, for fear of being caught and sent to jail again.

Boss Xiao also bowed his hand to Mr. Jiang: "In case we can't come back, please help me, Uncle Jiang."

"I remember." Mr. Jiang patted his shoulder solemnly: "I'll wait for you to come back."
