The cell of the Niu family's concubine was already filled with crying and shouting.
How could the pampered concubines bear this? Some knelt down to beg for mercy, some cried bitterly, some wailed, and the whole place was in chaos.
It was not until Meng Zhuang waved his whip a few times that he calmed down the crying concubines.
"If you don't want to leave, stand up!"
Seeing Meng Zhuang's ferocious look, no one dared to stand up.
Didn’t you see that the three concubines who followed me last night haven’t come back yet?
None of them knew whether the three concubines were alive or dead.
Meng Zhuang's face darkened as he glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice,
"Everyone, be disciplined and follow each other. If you dare to run around, shout, or walk slowly, this will be your fate!"
“Crack!”
Meng Zhuang swung the whip and hit the old lady Niu who was the last one to fall and was lingering and wailing at the door of the cell.
There is no way. These concubines can still be sold for money, but if they are broken, they will not be sold at a high price.
Someone gave 500 taels to protect the Xiao family, so the Xiao family cannot be attacked at the moment.
Then we can only use Old Lady Niu as an example to scare the monkeys.
It was all because Mrs. Niu was so considerate and didn't give him a chance to fight.
Old Madam Niu's pupils trembled, her potential was instantly stimulated, she jumped three feet high, and rushed out of the cell in two steps.
However, the tail of the whip still hit her back, and the pain made her soul tremble.
"ah!"
Old Lady Niu screamed and threw herself on the concubine in front of her.
The scream outside the cell instantly woke up Du Tianli, who was still sleeping soundly with Niu's concubine in his arms.
Du Tianli pushed away the limp concubine and sat up suddenly.
After looking at the sky outside, he hurriedly put on his clothes and ran to the cell.
Meng Zhuang had just taken two steps towards the gate of Guangfeng City with the prisoners when he heard Du Tianli's shout.
"Brother Meng, wait a minute."
After last night's communication, the two of them have become like-minded and have become brothers.
Lin Yiran paused when she heard Du Tianli's voice.
It’s over!
A fish that slipped through the net.
Du Tianli and Fang Congming are in the same group.
Du Tianli must also know that Fang Congming came to kill the Xiao family yesterday.
Then he showed up at this time...
Lin Yiran took a deep breath and turned her head slightly to look at Xiao Yunzhan, who had his head drooping on her shoulder.
Brother, what should we do?
Killing people in broad daylight?
Lin Yiran's breath fell on Xiao Yunzhan's face, and his eyelids trembled.
It's normal for Lin Yiran to be nervous when Du Tianli appears at this time.
He listened carefully and found that there was no one else following Du Tianli.
In addition, the bodies were dealt with last night, so Du Tianli would not have thought that Fang Congming had been killed by them.
Let's wait and see what happens first. If the enemy comes, we will fight him with our soldiers; if the water comes, we will block it with earth.
Meng Zhuang stopped and looked back, frowning slightly.
He sighed lightly and instructed Zhang Erniu, "You and your brothers take these people into the city first."
You have to queue up to enter the city. Even if he is an official, it is impossible to cut in line without paying bribes.
Why should the city gate guard give him this face? He only recognizes the money and not the person.
Just go and queue up obediently.
Hearing Meng Zhuang's words, Lin Yiran and Xiao Yunzhan both breathed a sigh of relief.
As soon as he entered the city, Du Tianli could not move freely and had to wait until the next post station.
There are still many variables between the next stations, and it is hard to say who will live and who will die.
After watching Zhang Erniu and his men leave, Meng Zhuang stepped forward to meet Du Tianli.
"Hey, Brother Du, why did you wake up so early? I even asked the brothers not to wake you up."
When he walked in front of Du Tianli, Meng Zhuang said in a low voice,
"Brother Du, don't worry. I put two pairs of shackles on the Xiao family this morning. They will be in trouble on the way..."
"Has Fang Congming been here?"
Du Tianli frowned, interrupted Meng Zhuang and asked anxiously.
Meng Zhuang was stunned and looked at Du Tianli in confusion.
"Didn't Brother Fang return to the capital?"
"Never come back?"
"No, I haven't seen anyone."
Du Tianli frowned even more tightly. According to Fang Congming's speed, he would be able to return from the capital in the early morning.
He hasn't come back for so long, could something have happened on the way?
So should he continue to follow the Xiao family, or go back to the capital to take a look?
Du Tianli looked at the prisoners moving towards the city gate with a troubled look on his face.
Meng Zhuang licked his lips and looked at Du Tianli, "Brother Du, do you have any other instructions? I have to hurry and escort the prisoners."
Du Tianli withdrew his gaze, lowered his eyes and thought for a moment.
"I heard that a new Wanhualou has opened in Guangfeng City recently. They are in need of girls and are very generous with the money they pay."
"The journey will become increasingly difficult. Brother Meng can stay in Guangfeng City for a few more days, enjoy yourself, and earn some money for yourself..."
He certainly couldn't return to the capital right now, as someone had to keep an eye on the Xiao family.
What if someone contacts the Xiao family after he leaves?
Once he left Guangfeng City, how could he monitor the Xiao family alone?
People have three urgent needs. He can't just not eat, drink, sleep or defecate.
There are spies from all sides watching Guangfeng City, and the Xiao family will never contact anyone at this time.
If you want to contact someone, you have to leave Guangfeng City.
Then he would leave a secret code and wait for Fang Congming in Guangfeng City for two days.
There was still no news from Fang Congming the day after tomorrow, so he rushed back to the capital.
Meng Zhuang immediately understood what Du Tianli meant.
After thinking for a while, he nodded and said, "Brother Du is right."
"Those concubines won't last a few days, so why not just stay in Guangfeng City? It will be a good deed for us..."
