Jiaohua

Chapter 92 Don't dare to send letters
Outside the bandit village, baskets of stones were picked by the strong men and piled up in a long row.

The sturdy women help carry or push the cart together, and the thinner ones gather in the north of the village to make a fire and cook.

The village chief and some well-known old people in the village stood under the old tree at the head of the village, looking at the river in the distance, discussing how to defend.

The younger steward and the people sent by the county magistrate were discussing in another place, and their expressions were a little ugly.

They had just been scolded, and everyone wanted to beat them to death.

Zhao Yan and Si Zhu were awakened by the sound of beating and beating. The two went downstairs after finishing their things, and found that the shopkeeper was also packing, just like yesterday.

"The guest officer is awake," the shopkeeper raised his head. "Just in time, I was about to call you."

"What are you doing?" Sizhu asked.

"I received news yesterday that those horse thieves were going to join forces to fight, but the stewards only said it today, and they said they were afraid of causing everyone to panic!" The shopkeeper scolded, "What is the head these days? "

"That's right," Sizhu glanced at the backyard, "We're going to leave, why don't you bring those food with us?"

"Let's go?" The shopkeeper shook his head, "They can't get in, and we can't get out either. If you want to go, go there and climb the mountain!"

"Can't go out?" Zhao Yan was taken aback, "Why!"

The shopkeeper did not speak, and bundled the small bundle of copper plates containing clothes and books into a big bundle.

Sizhu "cut" and took Zhao Yan's arm: "Miss, let's go."

"Ah."

But as the shopkeeper said, when they arrived at the head of the village where they came yesterday, they almost lost their land.

The carts of carts, the baskets of pick baskets, piles of stones fell on the road, building several high walls.

Their carriage was too obstructed in the past, which caused a lot of scolding, and some of the women were quick-tempered and scolded.

The coachman was sitting outside, unable to bear the scolding, and looked back at the carriage: "I said, two girls, I want you to stop coming, you have to come!"

Sizhu was lying at the window, looking at the situation outside, she was flustered: "Miss, or we really don't leave."

Zhao Yan paused for a while, then pulled up the curtain of the car and walked out.

Sizhu was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly followed: "Miss?"

"That's it, you are here," Zhao Yan looked at the driver, "We will go back by ourselves, but don't make it sound like we hurt you, don't you take the money too?"

Sizhu jumped down and followed her, hearing the words and said, "That's it!"

While talking, another woman was scolding on the side of the road.

Zhao Yan didn't bother to argue with these village women, so she took Sizhu away and walked towards the head of the village.

The originally not spacious village road was crowded and there was no place to go, Zhao Yan took Sizhu to the side road.

Before taking a few steps, I saw a figure, stumbling in front of an earthen house, taking a few small steps back and forth, looking familiar.

Si Zhu fixed his eyes and said, "Miss, isn't that the guy in the shop?"

Hearing the sound, the guy also looked over.

"Hey, what are you doing!" Sizhu cried.

The guy held a letter in his hand, and when he heard the words, he quickly put his hand behind him.

"What are you hiding?" Si Zhu looked at him suspiciously, paused for a moment, and suddenly said loudly, "Ha! I see! Good man, are you sent by those horse thieves..."

"No no!" the man interrupted.

Si Zhu walked over quickly and snatched the letter from his hand.

"Hey!" the boy cried.

"What!" Si Zhu glared at him, holding the letter and hiding behind him.

"This thing is useful, it's for steward Xiao."

"What is it, weird!" Si Zhu glanced back and forth at the envelope.

"Give it to me." Zhao Yan said.

Taking the letter over, Zhao Yan glanced back and forth, but there was no signature on the letter.

She leaned under her nose and sniffed again.

"Miss, what are you smelling?"

"Look to see if there is any poison."

"Poison?" Sizhu was startled, and said again, "But you can't smell the poison."

"It's not poisonous, I've pinched it for so long, it's fine." The guy said.

Zhao Yan looked at him: "Who gave it to you?"

Seeing that the guy was a little hesitant, Si Zhu fiercely said, "Speak!"

"Just that girl."

"Girl?" Si Zhu thought for a while, then suddenly, "She! This little beggar can still write letters? Did someone else give it to her?"

The guy didn't answer, and reached out to get the letter back.

Zhao Yan also imitated Sizhu's talent and hid behind, Sizhu stepped forward and blocked the man: "What do you want to do!"

Zhao Yan turned around and opened the envelope.

Three pages of letter paper, the handwriting is elegant, clean and generous.

She glanced at it briefly, and said stunned: "Like, a strategy to defeat the enemy."

"Break the enemy?"

"This thing can't be delayed," Zhao Yan hurriedly stuffed the letter back and looked at the man, "Why didn't you send it over?"

"I, I'm not afraid..." The man hesitated.

Also.

In fact, she doesn't understand the method mentioned above.

"If this method is useful, do you know that you are hurting people like this?" Zhao Yan said, "If this method is fake, and you want to cooperate with the horse thieves, you should show those people and let them judge for themselves."

This is quite similar to that girl.

The guy nodded and said nothing.

Zhao Yan was disdainful again, secretly thinking that the inn here is a small errand, what can be done.

She handed the letter to Sizhu: "You go to hand it in and run over."

"Ok!"

Sizhu took the letter and ran away.

When the guy saw her sending the letter away, he was relieved: "Then, I'm leaving."

Zhao Yan didn't even look at her, and walked in the direction where Si Zhu left.

"Letter?" A man reached out and took it, looking at the girl in front of him.

Sizhu was tired from running, and panted while holding the old tree: "It's the letter, you can see for yourself."

Several men over there heard the words, and one of them snatched it away.

Not knowing many words, he looked at Xiao Yumao over there: "Mr. Xiao, take a look."

Xiao Yumao is about 23 or [-] years old, looks like a scholar, and wears washed and faded cloth clothes.

He stretched out his hand to take the letter that was handed over, and after looking at it, he raised his eyebrows gently.

"This one……"

He murmured and watched it back and forth a few times.

"What are you talking about?" someone beside him asked.

"Three ways." Xiao Yu boldly said.

"How?" Someone was delighted, "What kind of method?"

"The way to solve the predicament," Xiao Yu smiled and looked at Sizhu, "Thank you girl for sending it! Thank you later!"

"Don't thank me, it's not mine!" Si Zhu hurriedly said.

She still remembers what Zhao Yan said just now, what this method is fake and so on, if something happens, she can't afford the crime.

"it is good."

Xiao Yu responded casually, looked back at the big men over there, stretched out his hand to invite two people with good relationship: "Quick, come with me!"

A magistrate next to him grabbed him: "Where are you going?"

"Wait the flag on the mountain!"
