Chapter 176 The Scholar and the General Soldier

The flower-picking thief was asking for trouble now. Unexpectedly, this handsome girl was so ruthless and would not accept his tricks at all. Not at all threatened.

He was already so angry that his life was hanging by a thread, but now he was even worse. He took two quick breaths and shouted in a hissing voice:

"No... I didn't expect that I... The flying mouse... died here..."

A pair of mouse eyes popped out, its sharp mouth opened wide, and it died with a tilt of its head.

Dongfang Ying covered her mouth with her hand, kicked the flower picker's body to the wall, frowned and said:

"What a flying mouse, it's worse than shit! You're scared of me like this It's dead, what a waste!"

"It's a pity that I didn't ask about the secret he mentioned. Sister Lan, what do you think of dealing with this dead mouse?"

She turned to look at Lan. Zhi Xin and Lan Zhi Xin were also quite nauseated. They covered their hearts and said hesitantly:

"Sister Ying'er, why don't you... search him to see if there is anything hidden... a letter or something?" It's a certificate..."

Dongfang Ying turned to look at the ugly death of the flower thief and said with disgust:

"Humph... I won't touch him! "It's so dirty!"

At this time, Mingchuan Rongmei had already cured Caisu and Caiwei. The two girls had recovered their strength and ran over to pull up the mosquito net. They supported Lan Zhixin and said eagerly:

"Madam, please forgive me. The slaves are useless and almost humiliated Madam... Please punish me, Madam!"

Lan Zhixin sighed and said softly:

"You two go to the thief, search carefully, and take out everything."

Naturally, Cai Su and Cai Wei obeyed their orders and let Lan Zhixin go. , walked to the body of the flying mouse, squatted down and rummaged through the body.

Not long after, the two maids each held a pile of things and placed them on the floor in front of the bed.

Lan Zhixin, Dongfang Ying, and Mingchuan Rongmei looked at those things carefully. Sure enough, there was a letter among them, as well as other tools such as daggers, bamboo tubes, medicine bottles, silk ropes, and even There are also valuables such as jade pendants, finger rings, and banknotes.

Mingchuan Rongmei picked up the letter first, and just took out the letter paper to hand it to Dongfang Ying, but Lan Zhixin said:

"Let me read this letter first. It belongs to that lewd thief. There may be some filthy content in it. You are all girls, so it is not appropriate to look at it."

Mingchuan Rongmei hesitated, staring at Dongfang Ying, who said smoothly. Said:

"That's right, I won't touch this dead rat thing, Rong'er, give it to Sister LanSister, take a look. "

Mingchuan Rongmei said "good" and handed the letter to Lan Zhixin.

Lan Zhixin took it and unfolded it, with anxiety on her beautiful face. With a look on her face, her curved thin eyebrows were raised, Dongfang Ying observed the words and asked quickly:

"Sister Lan, what is written on it? Look how anxious you are! "

Lan Zhi calmed down, handed the letter to Mingchuan Rongmei, and said:

"See for yourself, this matter is no small matter. "

Dongfang Ying couldn't care less about her previous dislike. She moved closer to Mingchuan Rongmei and said:

"Rong'er, let's see together what a big deal it is. "

Mingchuan Rongmei held the letter paper with both hands and looked at the content of the letter with Dongfang Ying. It was a set of block letters written with a brush:

"Master Feng Gongjunjian of the main town: In the past We are fortunate to have a different relationship with Gongtai. Although you hold a high position in the Qing court, your speech and behavior are different from those of other officials. You show your strength and power, and your clear ambitions. We sincerely admire you. "

"The current imperial court has no political integrity and corrupt principles; the government exploits the people and cannibalizes people, and is more violent than tigers and wolves; thieves are rampant in the mountains and plains, and mourners are everywhere... Doesn't this make knowledgeable people feel sad? "

"Gongtai is in charge of the soldiers of a town, has access to the interests of three provinces, and is at the center of five states. At this time when the Japanese pirates are fighting and the Qing court is in trouble both inside and outside, if we can follow the path of heaven and wave the flag of righteousness to attack Tyranny, a certain person is willing to rise up on the shores of the Guangdong Sea to support him. "

"Then you and I attack the state capital from the north to the south, and approach the most beautiful area. The people will gather in large numbers to follow, and the reputation will be great. The universe is determined and the world is clear, which is the way to fulfill the ambition of Gongtai. ”

“The miraculous feats that are so hard-won and the great deeds that will be remembered for thousands of years all happened in one thought of Gongtai. "

"I hope Gongtai will know the situation and make a decision. What do you think of me? I can give the reply to the person who comes." Quyun paused when he asked for good news. "

Although this letter is short, the things written in it are shocking. Although Dongfang Ying and Mingchuan Rongmei are not well-educated people, they can probably understand the meaning expressed in it.

And he himself responded to each other in Guangdong Province, raised troops at the same time, and captured the provincial capital Guangzhou. After success, they became horns with each other, recruited troops, and planned to overthrow the Manchurian Empire. Qing Dynasty.

And they chose this opportunity to take advantage of the Japanese invaders and the Qing Dynasty to be in a state of distress, and to stab the Qing Dynasty's most important source of finance and taxation and a prosperous place.

If this plan is really successful, the already precarious Qing Dynasty may not be far from death.

Dongfang.Ying couldn't help but secretly admire this person named "Qu Yun", then she raised her head and asked Lan Zhi: "Sister Lan, do you know this person who wrote the letter?"

Lan Zhixin looked at Mingchuan Rongmei, then at the two maids, and said thoughtfully:

"I seem to have heard Zhihui talk about a scholar named Yang Feihong, whose courtesy name is Zhaochun. , nicknamed Qu Yun, is from Haicheng County, Fujian Province. He has lived in Hong Kong for a long time. He founded a Fu Ren Literary Society and served as its president. "

"This literary society is based on 'opening up people's wisdom and researching new learning'. The purpose was to attack the imperial court and reform political affairs, which attracted many anti-Qing people, who were jealous and hated by the government."

Dongfang Ying nodded in praise:

" As a scholar, he dares to confront the dog court and the dog government, and he is so ambitious that he wants to unite the general military officers of the Qing court to work together. This courage alone can really be called a great hero! ”

Lan Zhixin shook her head and said:

"Throughout the ages, scholars have rebelled, and it takes three years to succeed. What's the use of just having courage? I don't have strong strength or sufficient preparations. I just use my own strength. Life is a joke."

"This time he rashly wrote a letter to instigate rebellion against the Qing Dynasty's general. If it is leaked or the general reneges, he may not only be in a desperate situation, but also be harmed. Many people's lives were lost."

At this time, Mingchuan Rongmei asked:

"Madam, your husband is also a general. He should know who the general named Feng is in this letter. Right?"

Lan Zhixin glanced at her and said lightly:

"There are more than a thousand generals in the Qing Dynasty and more than 80 soldiers in total. How could a mere wife of the governor of Guangdong, General Biao, recognize so many people?"

But she changed the subject again:

"Fortunately, Zhejiang and Guangdong is not far away, and I often travel between the two places, so I know a lot of people in the officialdom."

"And judging from the statement in the letter, it is said that this commander-in-chief is in charge of the army of a town. , the advantage of connecting the three provinces, and the key to the five states, it should be the Chu state."

This chapter is not finished, click on the next page to continue reading.

"In terms of terrain, Chuzhou is the key link connecting Wen, Tai and Wu Qu, and the throat of the three provinces of Fujian, Zhejiang and Jiangxi."

"So I think this Feng Gong, It should be Feng Wuqing, the commander-in-chief of Chuzhou Town."

Dongfang Yingmo read the name and felt that it was ordinary yet domineering. He could be the commander-in-chief of a town, so he was certainly not an ordinary person. So he smiled and said:

"If this is really General Feng, then we happen to be in the capital of Chuzhou now, within his jurisdiction. Why not take this letter and pay him a visit?" How about his reaction?"

Lan Zhixin rolled her eyes and said:

"Nonsense! We are too busy with our own affairs to take care of others.What's this for? "

"Let's deal with this matter tonight. This thief... Well, could you please Miss Mingchuan, wrap the body in a sack and throw it to an uninhabited place at night? "

Mingchuan Rongmei also gave her a soft reply:

"I can't do this job. Xiao Xiao is sneaky and sneaky, and it will bring shame to our Mingchuan family. "

Lan Zhixin couldn't do anything about her. Knowing that the Japanese woman only listened to Dongfang Ying, she turned her eyes to Dongfang Ying.

Naturally, Dongfang Ying was unwilling. Mingchuan Rongmei felt aggrieved and said:

"How about we let Mr. Kuang carry the person out to deal with it? "

Lan Zhixin shook her head decisively:

"How can that be done? Let him find out, what kind of behavior would it be to take a dead... dead man out of my wife's room in the middle of the night? "

Lan Zhixin looked at her two personal maids, but then sighed. They were too weak and timid, and they would definitely not be able to handle this matter.

At this time, Mingchuan Rongmei picked out a bottle from a pile of items found from the flower picker, opened it and smelled it, then poured some powder on the table and said to Dongfang Ying:

Dongfang Ying was stunned for a moment. Of course she had never seen it before, but she had heard from her masters and sisters about strange rumors in the world. It seemed to be a vicious potion that could destroy corpses and eliminate traces of murder cases. There was no way to solve it and it became an unsolved case.

I couldn’t help but feel a chill in my heart. I frowned and asked,

“No way, Ronger, do you think this is the appalling zombie powder? "

Mingchuan Rongmei said thoughtfully:

"I'm not sure, but it's very simple, let's give it a try. "

After that, he took the medicine bottle, walked over and poured some powder on the wound on the flower thief's chest, and then hurriedly backed away.

Dongfang Ying and Caisu Caiwei approached with suspicion. Even Lan Zhixin couldn't help but come closer and peek behind Caisu Caiwei.

After a while, a strange and eerie scene appeared in front of the girls:

A stream of mist emerged from the chest of the flower-picking thief Flying Mouse, and there was a slight sound of "chichichichi". The wounds on the corpse slowly expanded into two large holes, and even the clothes and fabrics were corroded. < /p>

The eyes of Dongfang Ying and the three girls were also widened. They simply couldn't believe it. Lan Zhixin and Caisu Caiwei were so frightened that their faces turned pale. Their hearts almost jumped out of their mouths. They exclaimed and retreated. On the other side of the room.

Mingchuan Rongmei was indifferent, closed the small medicine bottle, turned around and said to Dongfang Ying:

"Did you see it? This is corpse powder. With this thing, it is not easy to deal with the corpse of a dead mouse.Single? "

Dongfang Yingrao was brave and fearless, but at this moment, her back felt cold and she felt nauseated. She smelled a strong fishy smell in the air and almost felt sick.

He rushed to the window and opened it to ventilate the strange smell. He pinched his nose and said:

"This... smells too bad... Even if I can get rid of the dead mouse, I can't let it go." In this room, Sister Lan wants to rest here for the night! "

Fortunately, Mingchuan Rongmei only poured a small amount of "corpse powder", which was not enough to completely dissolve the flying mouse's corpse. At this moment, the corrosion progress has been stopped.

Mingchuan Rongmei thought for a while and said:

"This is not difficult. The guest room my wife lives in is a suite with a separate bathroom. There is a big wooden bucket in it, so I threw the dead mouse into the bathtub. , use corpse powder to melt it all inside, and then pour it out as waste water and flush it away. "

She is a military doctor and is used to seeing corpses and the scenes of handling corpses. She said these words in an understatement, as calmly as washing her hands and feet.

But she said The three masters and servants of Lan Zhixin were frightened and retched, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

Although Dongfang Ying felt uncomfortable, she was brave after all, so she immediately said decisively:

"Okay, let's do it like this, clean up this stinky rat quickly, out of sight but out of mind. "

Lan Zhi said tremblingly:

"Yingying... Ying'er, I... I don't dare to live here anymore. I'll move over and sleep with you, okay? ..."

Mingchuan Rongmei said coldly:

"No, we only have one bed, but it is not as spacious as yours! "

Dongfang Ying couldn't bear it and comforted Lan Zhixin:

"Sister Lan, don't be afraid. How about I stay here with you. If you don't dare to sleep, then wait until At dawn, we had a long talk. "

"To be honest, I have known my sister for so long and I have never had this opportunity! "

Lan Zhixin relaxed a little. After all, she is also the wife of a general. She has seen the world, the so-called "tiger father has no dog girl", "a strong man matches a strong wife", she has been exposed to it for a long time, and she is naturally courageous. He was also stronger.

Mingchuan Rongmei secretly smiled. She was quite proud that she could punish Lan Zhixin a little. She immediately put on a pair of gloves, grabbed the body of the flying mouse, and mentioned it in the bathroom.

Then he stabbed a dozen holes in the body with a dagger, poured half a bottle of corpse powder into the holes, then closed the bathroom door and returned to the bedroom.

Soon the girls smelled a foul smell, thinking that the flying mouse's body was melting rapidly.

In order to cover up the smell, Lan Zhixin hurriedly talked. Caisu Caiwei lit four or five sandalwood burners and placed them in several corners of the bedroom.

Lan Zhixin saw that the pile of things belonging to the Flying Mouse were still placed in front of the bed., was about to take them off and throw them into the trash can, when he suddenly shouted "Ah", grabbed the jade pendant among them, and looked at it carefully.

Seeing her abnormal expression, Dongfang Ying asked hurriedly:

"Sister Lan, what's wrong with you? What did you find?"

Lan Zhixin raised her head. , said with a pale face:

"This... this jade pendant belongs to my nephew... How could it... appear on this thief?"

"Could it be... "

Dongfang Ying took the jade pendant and saw that it was shaped like a plum blossom and bamboo knot pattern, and its color was light green and warm. It had obviously been worn for a long time, and she muttered:

"This jade pendant Since it belongs to your nephew, and together with the letter, it must have been stolen by this dead rat... Could it be that the person who sent the letter is your nephew?"
