Chapter 193 Encountering Bandits
Chapter 193 Encountering Bandits
"Miss, you've been walking and stopping along the way, but you haven't encountered anything..." Xuan Ling didn't say anything else, and Wen Jiu understood.
"Since they intend to let us go, isn't it more satisfying than making us suffer? This is a posting to be a county magistrate. With the attention of the general's mansion and the people, we won't be so bold. It's best if we have a safe journey." Wen Jiu certainly believed that Emperor Yuan and those people would not assassinate them. After all, the place they were going to was not a threat to the people in the capital.
Qinghu stopped the carriage, and Ah San came over and said respectfully to the people inside the carriage, "Miss, the master said that we should eat something and rest for the night before continuing on the road tomorrow morning."
"I know." She called everyone in the team "Miss". In the arena, it is safer to use the title of unmarried lady rather than the title of prince's consort. Of course, she also wore her hair in a girl's bun.
There was actually an inn in the desolate place. It looked a little shabby from the outside, perhaps because of the wind and rain. Wen Jiu was still very alert. He looked around the mountains, and it was inevitable that it was a bandit pretending to be a passerby...
She gave Xuan Ling a look and looked around. Xuan Ling understood. Qing Hu also noticed something but did not say anything.
"Jiu'er, how can you handle it? Go eat something first, then look inside..."
"Brother, I'm hungry, let's go in," Wen Jiu interrupted, and the waiter waited flatteringly beside him.
"Sir, are you here for a quick meal or to stay overnight?"
"Is there anything to eat?" Su Jinyu asked as she was pushed by Su Jinmu in a wheelchair.
"Yes, there are some signature dishes. How about you come in first? I'll pour you a cup of tea to relieve your fatigue." The skinny waiter called a slightly fatter one and asked him to park the carriage, and then led them in.
Su Jinyu noticed something was wrong when she came in, and pinched Su Jinmu with her hand. He immediately understood and ordered a few dishes without saying anything.
While waiting for the food, Su Jinyu asked the waiter to take Su Jinmu upstairs to see the environment before deciding whether to stay. Su Jinmu followed him up.
In the kitchen at this time
"Boss, the people who came this time look rich or noble. There is also a delicate young lady and a person in a wheelchair. They seem to be here for sightseeing. The things in the car must be valuables," the skinny waiter reported.
"Just do it the same way as before, understand?" The chef was full of strength and lifted the spoon with ease.
"Yes, sir, but that young lady is as pretty as a fairy. If you can marry her, wouldn't that kill two birds with one stone?" The waiter actively recommended
"Okay, serve the dishes." After that, a home-cooked dish was cooked.
"Yes"
"Here it is, this is a home-cooked dish from the shop, minced meat vermicelli."
"Please enjoy your meal"
The waiter brought two plates to the two tables.
"Waiter, please bring some rice, open a pot of good wine, and cut two pounds of beef." Su Jinmu had already come down and started to order dishes.
"Okay" and ran to the kitchen
After a while, I was told that there was no cooked beef left, only raw beef, so I had to make a beef stew.
Su Jinmu agreed
As the dishes were served, they talked and laughed. The other table had already eaten most of the food. Bai Zhi asked and shook her head, then they started eating.
When the last beef stew came up, the smell was obviously wrong, and Bai Zhi frowned.
The servants at the other table had already started eating, so they had no choice but to pretend to eat. Wen Jiu was afraid that Su Jinyu and Su Jinmu would really eat, and they were worried that Wen Jiu would really eat.
Wenjiu looked at the beef pot, then looked at them, and they nodded.
As the people at the table next to them fell down one by one, they also followed and lay on the table, waiting for their chance.
"Sir, sir?" The waiter pushed them to make sure they couldn't move before he shouted, "Boss, they all fainted."
"Well, go check the things on the carriage, take away the valuables, and leave the clothes for them." The man's voice was deep and full of energy.
"Boss, come and take a look. This girl is really beautiful. I have never seen anyone as beautiful as her. Why don't you marry her? If you don't want her, we can..."
The man stopped the waiter's nonsense with a look.
"I'm just saying, don't be angry, boss."
Squinting his eyes, he saw the man who was called the boss. He was seven feet tall and full of capableness. There were calluses on his palms, which showed that he had practiced martial arts. His weapon should be a short sword.
There is a scar on the face, extending from the bridge of the nose to the ear, which looks horrible.
This man stood straight, doing robbery, and yet he seemed to be a simple and honest person. If I guessed correctly, he should have been a soldier.
"Then they..."
"Same as always, hurry up, they should wake up soon. After this time, I will quit this business. Use the money you divided to do some business." The man sat down
Wen Jiu could see it, and Su Jinyu could also see it, the way he sat...
"Boss, boss, I found this in the box, what is this? I can't read." The slightly fat waiter handed over the appointment letter.
The man picked it up and stood up immediately. "Is he the new county magistrate of Ganzhou County?" He narrowed his eyes and looked at the man lying there in front of him. They were all delicate and tender. How could he come to such a place? Is he the eldest grandson of the general's mansion, or the new champion?
Then he sneered and said, "It's just a formality. Everyone knows that the people in Ganzhou County are already living in poverty. Why would a rich man from Beijing come to a place like this? Ha, it's ridiculous."
"Move your things quickly"
Su Jinyu saw that they had no intention of hurting her, so she sat up straight. "You seem to have a lot of hostility towards officials from the capital?"
"You, how could you possibly..." The thin waiter was terrified.
"How is it impossible? Aren't these methods normal when traveling in the martial arts world?" After Su Jinyu finished speaking, except for the people at another table, everyone at their table sat up straight. Wen Jiu, the master and servant, Qing Hu, him, Su Jin, Mu San, a total of seven people
"You have to leave your stuff behind, or we won't be polite." The slightly fat waiter closed the door, grabbed his stuff, and another five or six people came in.
The six of them looked calm, as if waiting for them to continue.
The scarred man sat down and said calmly, "You must be Su Jinyu, the eldest grandson of the general's mansion, the new top scholar." He looked at the gentle and elegant man sitting in the wheelchair.
"That's right. It seems that the bandits also understand the affairs of the capital. I admire them." Su Jinyu's gentle voice is very pleasant to hear.
"We are not..." The skinny waiter was about to explain but was interrupted
"Notices have been posted in all prefectures, so it's hard not to know. I can only blame myself for being able to read and recognize this appointment letter. I learned that the eldest grandson of the general's mansion in the capital was admitted as an exception due to his leg disease and became the top scholar."
"And then?" Wen Jiu asked with a smile, her chin supported by her hands, her feet dangling on the stool, looking very charming.
The scarred man looked over and saw that she was really pretty, so pretty that I couldn't find an adjective to describe it. She was smart and lively.
"Aren't you afraid?" he asked
"I haven't encountered this before. I don't know what the next steps will be," Wen Jiu answered honestly.
Xuan Ling looked at his young lady and found that she was not lying.
"I... no, Boss, are good-looking people so arrogant?" The skinny waiter looked incredulous.
"Maybe it's because it looks good, hehe" the slightly fat waiter looked obsessed
"If you can't manage your brothers well, I don't mind disciplining them for you," Su Jinyu said with a dangerous look on his face.
"I didn't know you could remain calm in such a situation. Are you really from the General's Mansion?" The scarred man admired him for his ability to remain calm despite the pressure.
