Chapter 270

The next day, they sent people to send Huang Zhong and the others to Chu's house in Jizhou first, and then bought coffins to go back.

When the convoy arrived near Wukeshu Village, it was already midnight, Chu Qing didn't let the convoy stop, but continued on until the corn field.

Zhuo Yao went back to the Baolu Group alone, and told the boys who had come back and stayed behind, "Shut up, gather, and go to the cornfield."

The empty cornfield gathered nearly a thousand boys who could return home.

Lao Yu sent a team of people to disperse the opening posts, and Chu Yuan and Zhuo Yao told everyone what happened on the way.

Xiao Bao never woke up, still lying in the carriage, only fed him water a few times on the way.

The boys were filled with righteous indignation and were furious, but they also knew that the reason why they gathered here to talk about this matter was that they didn't want outsiders to hear it, so they didn't dare to speak loudly, but their expressions were hard to restrain.

Chu Qing asked for the 48 boys to be lifted off the carriage, and everyone washed their bodies and faces, and took out their newly-issued uniforms and changed them into them.

"Tomorrow," Chu Qing said, his voice rubbing like gravel: "It's time for the brothers to bury themselves in the ground. I want to bury them on the other side of the mountain, okay? From now on, Xiaobao and I will also go there."

The other side of the mountain is adjacent to Xinlunzhou, but because there are many rocks, no one goes there, and it is very quiet.

Chu Qing wanted to place the boys at the intersection of the two states, so that it seemed that everyone could keep watch on each other.

Everyone agrees.They gathered in Wukeshu Village, and from here they went all the way to Xinlunzhou for development. This was their starting point.

Chu Qing added: "In this case, the last two survivors also died. We don't have any evidence against the murderer. And I don't want to report it to the police."

In the carriage, Gan Lai sat beside Xiao Bao and listened quietly, his right hand clenched around his mouth, his teeth scratching the knuckles of his index finger.

Xiaobao still didn't respond.

Chu Qing spoke again: "Brothers lost their lives to protect our mother. And we have no evidence to accuse them;

Besides, if this matter is reported to the authorities, all those involved will be delayed for a long time. I think... we can solve it ourselves, you see, okay? "

On the way, Chu Qing discussed with Lao Yu and the others.

If this matter goes through the secret investigation department's procedures, Chu Qing will be isolated to "avoid suspicion", while Chu Yuan, Zhuo Yao and the others, including Lao Yuyi, who went later, will all face "pending trial" at any time.

And Chu Qing didn't completely trust the secret investigation department.

At the beginning, the Jiangnan Meng family "docked their tails" to get rid of the Jizhou Meng family to protect themselves, but they were easily exonerated. It has to be said that Wu Jichang was involved in it.

But now that Wu Jichang is dead, the Jiangnan Meng family is still at large, either because the secret investigation department still has their backing, or they have intricate connections with other families and even the officialdom.

This kind of matter, relying on formal channels, is afraid that it will be dragged on to the end, and finally nothing will be done.

Chu Qing’s voice was hoarse. Old Yu knew that she was angry, so he told everyone the analysis on the road in a low voice. Finally, Old Yu concluded: "What the boss means is, everyone should hold on to your thoughts and don’t spread the word. Let’s find a way to get it out. The Meng family will be uprooted!"

Lao Yu explained the pros and cons clearly, and the boys all agreed, saying what to do as long as the boss said something.

Xiao Sining and the boys who had participated in killing Wu Jichang secretly exchanged glances with Chu Yuan.

Chu Yuan quietly pulled Xiao Sining to the back of the carriage and whispered: "Last time, Xiaobao has felt the suspicion of the magistrate Xu. I guess there are not a few people who suspect our boss. If the Meng family is reported to the government this time, I'm afraid it will bring up the incident from last time."

Wu Jichang's death, not only Xu Guangze suspected Chu Qing, but also Bai Hua, Song Tingshan, even the emperor and Hu Hengqiu were suspicious, but there was no evidence, and he didn't want to pursue it to the end.

Even the old Huang Zhong had guessed, but Huang Zhong's evaluation of this matter was: "Hmph! A furnace of good steel was ruined!"

It was about pouring water into a blast furnace.Don't fry the furnace, just go into Wujichang, the furnace steel can still be used.

Xiao Sining: "Shut up, don't tell! Let's make them have no evidence!"

Chu Yuan: "That's what it means."

Inside the carriage, Xiao Bao clenched his hands under the quilt into fists.

Gan Lai, who was sitting next to him, seemed to feel movement in Xiaobao's thigh: "Xiaobao?"

Xiaobao still didn't respond.

Gan Lai rubbed the outside of his thighs, thinking that his legs were numb from sitting for a long time.

Outside the carriage, Chu Qing confessed: "It's impossible to completely cover up this matter, the brothers died horribly, I don't want them to go any longer.

I have sent people to buy coffins, tomorrow, let's send them away properly.

This matter will inevitably spread. If anyone asks, everyone will only say that they encountered bandits on the way back, and that the brothers died to protect the property, and don't say anything else. "

…………

You Zhenghang didn't stay in the Chu residence any longer, so he forced himself to bid farewell to his companions, and asked the Chu family boy to take him home.

His little heart couldn't take any more.

Pei Qing and the others didn't leave in a hurry, but got together to discuss it, and never mentioned this matter in the future, so as not to make Xiaobao feel sad.

I don't mention it to my family, they are all civilian children, telling them about this matter can't solve anything, and if I scare them, I shouldn't let them out in the future.

They didn't think Xiaobao was cruel, but thought it was his true nature.

"He is so close to people who are not related by blood, and he would give up his life just to avenge them!" said a little friend.

Another also said: "If it were me, I would have to violently kill people! How can I just live while others die for me!"

Pei Qing calmed everyone's emotions: "It's over, don't think about it, and don't let your family see it. If it gets out, just say you don't know about it. I don't think Auntie and Xiaobao will let this happen." It's affecting us."

Mr. Nie listened quietly outside the door for a while, then left.

He has been cautious and cautious for most of his life. What can he do if he is afraid of wolves before and fear of tigers later?Isn't it worthless?
Rather than living in such a useless way, it is better to be like these children and take the responsibility as it should, which can be regarded as a magnanimous heart.

If this matter affects the children, he will stand up and stand up, determined not to delay the children's future.

As soon as You Zhenghang came home, he pulled his mother into his room, closed the door and cried in his arms, until he hiccupped from crying, and then he began to sob and tell the whole story.

When You Zhixian came home, he heard the housekeeper say that the young master was back, and he seemed to be crying to his wife, and he didn't even eat, so he hurried over to have a look.

After hearing what had happened, Youzhi County asked, "Do you know who these bandits are?"

You Zhenghang had already been fed water by his mother, he calmed down a lot, and said, "It's a bandit, who else can it be?"

You Zhixian: "Your Aunt Chu didn't interrogate?"

You Zhenghang became excited again: "I don't know! Chu understands crazy! His eyes are blood red, and he cuts and kills anyone he sees. It is estimated that no one is left alive! Mr. Nie drove us back to the carriage to make room. I don't know about it."

You Zhixian: "Oh, he is a bloody child, but this is too exciting."

You Zhenghang: "You still praise him?! He is a devil, a devil! His eyes are red!"

Mrs. You caressed her son's back: "Don't be afraid, the Chu family treats people sincerely, and they all get along like family members. Think about it, if something happened to me and your father, would you also..."

You Zhenghang shouted: "That's different! They're just servants of the Chu family! Even if they weren't, they're not related by blood!"

Mrs. You shook her head: "No, child, people get along with their feelings, not their class. Remember, you have to treat people with sincerity, and don't classify people casually. It doesn't matter if you don't understand now, keep this in your heart , experience it slowly.”

This child is also going to be an official. If he treats people in different classes at such a young age, if he becomes an official in the future, he may not be able to win people's hearts.

After Huang Zhong and Master Lu returned to the Chu residence, they kept silent about the matter.

They were just worried about Chu Qing.

After saying goodbye for an hour, Chu Qing lost two strands of white hair at the temples. It can be seen that this incident not only made her heart ache, but also damaged a lot of her vitality.

As people get older, they know more about the importance of health.

Huang Zhong has already retired, even if he doesn't, it won't be of much use.

Master Lu is a commoner and can't help.It's just that the sudden loss of so many good children in the family made him feel very sad.

All they could do was to try their best to appease the boys and not make Chu Qing worry too much.
