The mother and daughter didn't have much tacit understanding, and the old lady was slapped by her beloved youngest son.
No one was hit, but Mrs. Zhou's headdress was knocked to the ground.
For a moment, the courtyard was so silent that you could hear a pin drop...
The old lady fell to the ground and was in a daze for a long time. She had never been beaten in her life, and this blow really scared her.
Zhou Rui was also dumbfounded. His brother usually didn't hit him so hard as he did today.
He was just in a hurry and didn't see the person rushing towards him, so he fought back subconsciously, which ended up being very embarrassing.
Zhou Rui first looked at his mother who was still in a daze, then turned stiffly to look at his second brother.
As soon as the two brothers' eyes met, a certain line in Zhou Yi's mind was strangely connected.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If we don’t educate you now, when will we?
Zhou Yi dragged his stupid brother two meters away to avoid accidentally hurting the old lady.
With new and old grudges added together, today I have a legitimate reason to do so. Since I don’t want to go out and suffer, I might as well just lie down at home and enjoy myself.
But when you enjoy yourself, you will always have some injuries on your body, right?
Even if Zhou Yi really wanted to break his legs, he wouldn't be so cruel. After all, they are brothers from the same mother.
But some superficial injuries are inevitable. If this kid doesn't suffer the pain, he will never repent.
Old Madam Zhou was helped up by the nanny. She looked around but didn't see her daughter-in-law, so she had to speak for herself.
"Xiao Rui, quickly admit your mistake to your second brother. Second brother, calm down and stop fighting."
Zhou Yi's feet kept moving, but he said righteously, "Don't worry about it. This brat is lawless and dared to attack his own mother. I must deal with this disobedient and unfilial thing and vent your anger for you!"
Madam Zhou wanted to say that she was not angry, but she also felt that it would be inappropriate for her to say this.
At this moment, she really needs her daughter-in-law to come and rescue her. There is such a big commotion in the front yard, why hasn't Yang shown up yet?
Ever since Zhou Zijun was lost and found again, Zhou Yangshi has come to terms with it.
She just needs to maintain a good relationship with her husband and take care of her two children. The rest of the people and things have nothing to do with her. She is just an ordinary person and can't care about so many things.
Zhou Rui was the one who started this incident today, and Zhou Yi was just taking advantage of it.
Zhou Yang knew that there was trouble ahead, but she did not intervene. Her mother-in-law disliked her anyway, and she did not want to cause trouble.
Zhou Yi finally got rid of his anger and asked the housekeeper to carry the person in and find a doctor to see Zhou Rui.
"I still have work to do. Mom, please go back first. Don't be angry with Xiao Rui. Anger is harmful to your health. If he behaves disrespectfully again, tell me and I will deal with him for you."
Old Madam Zhou struggled to pull the corners of her mouth, revealing a smile that was uglier than crying.
"Go ahead, business is more important."
She's not angry, so there's no need to vent for her.
After watching Zhou Yi leave, the old lady hurried to see her youngest son.
…
Su Shien thought he had a good talk with General Tie, so he went back to discuss the details with Yu Ge'er, such as selling Ao Ye and the stolen goods together.
Tie Dongming's forehead was covered with sweat. He had to go to the palace and transfer the pressure to the emperor. The king of a country was the most capable of taking on responsibilities.
The spy sent by the emperor returned earlier than Ye Chen. He arrived in Kyoto almost immediately after Han Zeyu arrived.
After the incident in Fuhuzhai, Han Zeyu stayed in Qingshan County for two days.
Xiao Hei's injury and the two extra people on the road affected their travel speed.
Otherwise, with his lightning speed, even the spies would be exhausted and unable to keep up with him.
The emperor knew that Ao Ye must have fallen into Han Zeyu's hands, but he was not sure whether he was alive or not.
What is the purpose of holding Ao Ye hostage? What does he know? What does he want to gain?
His Majesty the Emperor is waiting, waiting for Han Zeyu's next move.
Zhou Yi finally arrived at the general's mansion, but before he even reached the door, he saw General Tie escorting Su Shien out of the mansion.
How could ordinary people get such treatment? Could it be that Su Shien is...
Oh no, this person might have gotten there first and asked for an exorbitant amount of money.
The most terrifying thing is to see General Tie’s hypocritical smile. Could it be that he has fallen into a trap?
Han Zeli boarded the carriage, and seeing that Su Shien was about to follow, Zhou Yi became anxious and quickly said, "Editor Su, please stay. I have something to discuss with you!"
Su Shien had a serious expression on his face, as if he didn't hear anything. He got on the carriage and drove away without looking back.
Are you kidding? We finally agreed on a rough price, so how could we give you a chance to bargain?
The advantages of horse-drawn carriages are that they are energy-saving, environmentally friendly and pollution-free.
Otherwise, Zhou Yi, who was catching up closely, would have been sprayed in the face by exhaust fumes.
Tie Dongming was puzzled: "Why are you in such a hurry? Is there something urgent?"
"General, you haven't negotiated terms with him, have you?"
Tie Dongming nodded, and Zhou Yi was startled.
Tie Dongming shook his head again, and Zhou Yi breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's not completely settled, but I know the person is in Han Zeyu's hands and is safe."
Zhou Yi didn't know this information, but as long as the person was still alive, the price could be negotiated slowly.
Zhou Yi and Tie Dongming went to the study and then talked about the news Ye Chen brought back.
The more Tie Dongming listened, the more silent he became. Facts proved that he had not wronged Su Shien. There was really no truth in the mouths of the couple.
It's just water, nothing else.
"Su Shien said Han Zeyu was kidnapped by bandits on his way back home and then rose up in resistance."
Zhou Yi was shocked: "You believe this nonsense?"
Tie Dongming wanted to say that he didn't believe it completely, mainly because Su Shien's story was too good.
"Han Zeyu risked his life by setting a trap for Fuhu Village with his black horse."
Tie Dongming expressed his desire to hear more details.
"He dared to go into a dangerous place like Fuhuzhai on his own. Regardless of other things, he is truly brave and resourceful."
Zhou Yi did not deny this point. Han Zeyu was indeed courageous and capable.
As for strategies, he always uses open strategies and never plays tricks.
"Han Zeyu disguised as a woman is very deceptive. Plus, Aoye likes good horses, and everyone in Fuhuzhai knows that."
A beautiful girl paired with a cool black horse, this bait is placed at the corner of Fuhu Village. Which bandit can resist the temptation?
"The details of the incident are unknown. No one in the village knew how the leader was captured. By the time they found out, Han Zeyu was trying to break out with the black horse. Ao Ye was tied to the black horse at the time. It is said that the shape of the horse was very strange."
Tie Dongming was curious: "How is it so special?"
Zhou Yi had a strange expression on his face, "Ye Chen said it was dark at that time, and the undercover agent couldn't see clearly."
Normal prisoners should lie on the horse's back, but Aoye's hands and feet were tied behind his back, and then the rope was passed under the horse's belly.
Hmm...could this shape be a human-shaped saddle?
However, these were all useful information mentioned by the bandits when they tried to review the situation after the incident.
Anyone who can tie a rope in such a fancy way is definitely not a serious person.
