Zhu Men Ji Shi

Chapter 296

How could Zhu Feng not know what his younger brother Zhu Jun was thinking, he just wasn't convinced and refused to accept control.But the more he is like this, the more Zhu Feng wants to suppress him, control him, and insist on making him lower his head.

Zhu Feng didn't mention the specific details, but Li Shi can figure it out after a little guessing.

"Second brother is a man with high eyesight and low abilities. Although he doesn't think much in his heart, if he really wants to do it himself, he may not be able to do one thing."

Zhu Feng had a sullen face and remained silent for a while.

After a while, the maid at the old lady's side with a pale face came over to send a message, saying that Zhu Feng and Li Shi were invited to go to the room immediately.

Zhu Feng originally thought it was a quarrel between himself and his younger brother, but the second elder in the family found out, who knows, when he went to the upper room to take a look, he saw Mr. Zhu sitting alone on the main seat, his eyes were slightly bloodshot, and his expression was as stiff as iron. People feel very wrong.

Seeing this, Zhu Feng's expression froze, he didn't expect that the quarrel between himself and his younger brother would make his father so angry, and he was about to step forward to admit his mistake, but he saw a person kneeling in the room.

The man prostrated himself on the ground, almost sticking his head and face to the ground, his shoulders trembling, accompanied by a few suppressed whimpers, as if he was crying.

Zhu Feng glanced around the room sensitively, only to see that his mother was not there.

Li Shi also felt that the atmosphere was not right, she lowered her head and glanced at the man on the ground, she felt familiar, but after a closer look, she found that he was Zhu Sanjin who came back to report the letter earlier.

In just this split second, Li Shi's heart skipped a few times. She raised her eyes to look at the old man, and asked with a tense voice, "Old man, what's wrong?"

Mr. Zhu was silent, his face extremely gloomy, he just raised his hand and pointed to Zhu Sanjin who was opposite.

Zhu Feng suddenly seemed to understand something, strode up to Zhu Sanjin, grabbed his collar, made him lift his head, and asked, "The young master asked you to come back to report the letter again?"

That Zhu Sanjin's man-made disheveled face has completely lost the cleanliness and neatness he had when he came back last time. His eye sockets were sunken, and his anxious eyes were filled with tears, and he said tremblingly: "Master... Something happened to the young master!"

It was only a few words, but it was a deafening bang to everyone's ears. Zhu Feng seemed to be stunned by the shock, and his body shook a little unsteadily.Li Shi didn't react at all, looked at Zhu Sanjin half-understanding, and asked in a trembling voice: "Who happened? Say it again."

Zhu Sanjin prostrated himself on the ground again, and said in a mosquito-like voice, "Something happened to the young master...you guys can't find the young master anymore."

Mr. Zhu has listened to this sentence three times, and every time he listens to it, it feels as if his heart has been gouged out by a sharp knife, and the pain is bloody.

The old lady was so frightened that she lost her breath just now, and she was directly carried away by the maids for a second time to regain her composure. She still hasn't woken up yet.

The room was completely silent, Li Shi was about to open her mouth to ask, but found that she could no longer make any sound, it felt like someone stuffed a big stone in her throat, blocking her from speaking, panting Not angry.

She subconsciously stretched out her hand and beat her chest, but no matter how hard she tried, she still couldn't catch her breath. In the end, her eyes went dark, and she fell straight down.

That night, the upper room of Zhu’s house was brightly lit. Mr. Zhu sat on the grand teacher’s chair, raised his hand and patted the table, and asked: “Hurry up and tell me the ins and outs of the matter. What's wrong?"

Zhu Sanjin's eyes were red, he hesitated for a moment, and then told the whole story of what happened that day.

Because the incident happened suddenly, he, as the person involved, couldn't catch his breath, so he could only say something.

After the original incident was completed, Zhu Jintang took a team of people to escort more than a dozen carriages of grain, and returned to Cangzhou, where he planned to take a boat and travel by water before returning to Dezhou.

After all, it would be faster to go by water. Zhu Jintang was eager to return home, so he naturally hoped to get home earlier.

"As soon as the court said that there was going to be a war, the common people panicked. It was inevitable that something would happen to the young master, so he specially invited a team of bodyguards and the younger ones to bring back the food. It was originally safe, but I don't know when... Perhaps after leaving the city, we seemed to be followed by someone. Although we took the official road, there were almost no people on the road, and it was very quiet. The young master rode in front, followed by two bodyguards, Watching the wind while driving, I didn't see anyone after walking for a whole day. The young master... The young master said that he wanted to find a village where he could settle down before dark, so the whole group speeded up. There is little rain and it is muddy. It was dark and everyone couldn't find a suitable place, so they had to find a clean place on the side of the road to rest their legs for a while."

Zhu Sanjin spoke intermittently, but no one interrupted him. Everyone present held their breath, waiting for him to continue.

"It's cold and dewy at night, and those bodyguards carry wine jugs with them, and they want to drink a few sips to keep warm. But the young master forbids it, saying that it's too quiet here, and accidents might happen, everyone should stay awake. Those bodyguards The teachers are all cunning people, and they don’t drink in front of the young master, but they secretly found a place where no one can see, and they all drank a lot. The young master has been paying attention to the movement around him, always feeling that Something is wrong, the younger one stepped forward to ask, only to hear the eldest son say, it is too quiet here, although there are no villages and no people, but there are no animals crying, it is too strange. After hearing this, the younger one just Get the boys in the house to cheer up."

When he was talking about this, he couldn't help but choked up again: "About the second watch, the little one was so sleepy that he fell asleep on the half stump. Who knows, after a while I was woken up by the young master. The young master said to me with a sullen face and frowning, tell everyone to get ready, there is someone in the grass on the opposite side moving again. When the younger one heard this, he sat down in fright. Get up. The little one looked up and saw a few ghostly figures on the opposite side. The little one thought it was his eyes that were dazzled, but when those people rushed out suddenly, the little one knew what was going on. It's not good... When those people came up, they didn't rush to grab the food first, but kicked out the fire first. In the dark night, no one could see clearly, but the little one heard the voice of the young master, But the young master's voice came out, and there were many other voices around, the sound of fighting, the young one panicked for a while, and the young one called the young master, but the young master seemed to be entangled by someone, and he didn't reply for a long time .Everything was in such a mess, it was pitch black, and I couldn’t see anything clearly. The little one leaned against the grain cart, and waited for a long time, only to hear a deep voice: "The matter is over, we withdraw. "Afterwards, there was no sound of fighting, only the sound of moaning in pain, the little one took out the fire book and checked it, only to see that the staff and bodyguards at home were all collapsed on the ground, it was not that there was no movement, Just curled up and groaned. The little one looked around, and saw that the grain cart was put there in a good condition, not moving at all, and the rest of the people were wounded and dead, but the eldest young master was missing. The little one Later, holding a torch, I searched around, but there was no trace of the young master... The younger one returned to the original place to wait for news. In the early hours of the morning, the younger one discovered that someone had posted a note on one of the grain trucks, which read He said, "If you want people to be safe, leave the grain carts where they are, and go to the entrance of Gaojiagang Village, ten miles to the south, to collect people at noon the next day.Report to the officer to see the corpse! "The young one was afraid that the elder and young master had something to do, so he did as they ordered. None of the injured people could go on their way, so the young one asked them to wait where they were, guarding the grain truck. The young one went to the high school by himself. In Jiagang Village, I waited for a whole day and didn't see the young master. Then I returned the same way, but found that the grain truck had disappeared, and those guys were gone. It was empty, there was no one left, only the There's blood all over the place, it's frightening."

He said this in one go, and then fell down on the ground and wept bitterly.

He was also afraid of death. He stood still at the same place and saved his life just now.However, he lost the eldest and young master, even if he saved his life, he still couldn't explain to his masters, he rushed back overnight, nearly exhausted a horse on the way, and spent five days.

However, these five days seemed like five years to him.

After hearing this, Mr. Zhu's hands trembled slightly unconsciously. He didn't know who the Zhu family would provoke, but he knew that Jintang must be in danger this time.

No matter what their origins are, these people are definitely not good.Not only did they rob the food, but they also cleaned up the people. If the Jintang really fell into their hands, wouldn't it be... the old man has lived his whole life, and he has seen many ups and downs, but things like this, he still lives. first encounter.

Zhu Feng, who has not moved or spoken since the very beginning, now his face is getting whiter and paler, his fists are clenched, and his heart is in unbearable pain like bleeding... He only has a son like Zhu Jintang, if he has There are three ups and downs, and half of this family will be destroyed... Mr. Zhu stood up tremblingly, and said with an extremely firm and serious expression: "Report to the authorities immediately. I must let the authorities investigate such lawless things to the end."

Hearing this, Zhu Feng murmured slightly: "But if you report to the officials, will Jintang be in danger?"

Even if he was furious, he didn't want to get angry, after all, his son's safety came first.

Mr. Zhu said in a deep voice: "Since they took away the food, it can be seen that they are seeking money. Moreover, they must know the identity of Jintang. If they still want money, they will not touch him easily. With so much food, no matter how They are equally attractive there, as long as the government continues to investigate, they will definitely find something. Now, it has been several days, the faster we act, the greater the chance of Jintang being saved."

"Okay, my son is going to find Lord Liu now." Zhu Feng turned around and walked hurriedly.

Zhu Jun, who was sitting next to him, also stood up and said, "Brother, wait, I'll go with you."

Although the two of them almost fought during the day, but now that something happened at home, they don't have time to worry about it so much.

Zhu Feng and Zhu Jun went out of the house one after the other, and Mr. Zhu sat back on the chair again, thinking viciously in his heart, if someone dared to touch Zhu Jintang's hair, even if he risked his life, he would have their whole family together Follow the funeral.

Mrs. Chai couldn't sit still any longer, and said to Mr. Zhu, "I'll go and see my mother-in-law and sister-in-law."

Mr. Zhu didn't answer, but just let her go down alone.
