Records of the Cattle and Horses of Chang'an

Chapter 366 Walking the Dog

"Madam, you need to apply medicine to your wound. It will be bad if your tears get on it." Qiaoxiang couldn't squeeze into the tattered carriage, so she could only anxiously look at the three masters who were crying and holding their heads in their hands beside the carriage.

Is this the time to cry? How can I face people if I get a scar on a place like my neck?

The crying specialist Xiao Jiang really cried this time, crying for the guards who lost their lives.

If she had been more resolute and followed Zhao Yue and her men to bring them back, perhaps so many people wouldn't have died...

They had all fought together for their lives. Just now, when Jiang Shangxian was distracted, he was still thinking that when preparing New Year's goods, he should also prepare some for these brothers who had fought together for their lives to commemorate the friendship of fighting together in the bloody battles today. He didn't expect that so many people would die in the blink of an eye.

Cui Shuhua was very concerned about her appearance. Upon hearing this, she stopped crying at once. While wiping her own tears, she also wiped Zhao Yue's tears a few times. "Stop crying now. You're already old. If you get another scar, you'll regret it. Nian Nu told you not to go, but you insisted on going!"

Xiao Jiang, who was crying and hiccuping, nodded repeatedly when he heard this, his face full of approval.

Cui Bianxu's guards had been by his side for at least ten years. Although the number of casualties today was not even, it was still quite a number. I'm afraid he must be heartbroken right now!

Fortunately, Zhuangzi was not far away, so we rode as fast as we could and the empty carriage arrived soon.

Because Jiang Shangxian and Zhao Yue were both injured, Cui Bianxu got two carriages. The carriages on the farm were naturally not comparable to the ones brought by the Cui Mansion. Fortunately, although the carriage of the Cui Mansion was broken, the mattress on it could still be used.

Zhao Yue and Jiang Shangxian, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, were placed side by side in a carriage, with Yingzi, the smallest of the group, serving them on the side, while Wu Sanniang and the other two were dragged away by Cui Bianxu and Wang Mingqian.

Jiang Shangxian was initially afraid that the three people would die on the road, but when he got up to take a look, he discovered that because the carriage was moving slowly, Cui Bianxu and Wang Mingqian were actually "walking the dog"!

Cui Bianxu was holding the ropes of Zhou Qiu and Wu Sanniang, while Wang Mingqian was holding Scarface's. They rode quickly for a distance and then stopped to wait for the carriage. The three people who were being dragged had to run hard every time to avoid falling to the ground and being dragged and sliding on the ground.

Xiao Jiang lay back down, and while Yingzi rubbed her dizzy head, she spoke to Zhao Yue, "Madam, you must stop being so impulsive. Safety is your top priority when you're out. The government will take care of the robbers, so what does it have to do with us?"

Zhao Yue lay straight, tears streaming down the fine lines at the corners of her eyes into her hair. Her nose was full of snot as she muttered, "Those thieves have no moral principles. They actually cheated."

Xiao Jiang wanted to sigh. Her mother-in-law was sometimes too naive, which was quite annoying. "Madam, have you ever heard of the saying 'All is fair in war'? When it comes to your life and property, you should be cautious. It's also said in the 'Records of the Grand Historian' that a son of a wealthy family should not sit in the hall..."

"You have learned the Records of the Grand Historian?" Zhao Yue was shocked when she heard that. She had never read it before!

Is this a question of what to learn? Is this a time to compete on learning progress?

She has been studying "The Book of Filial Piety" recently!

Thinking of the recent study tasks, Xiao Jiang shook his dizzy head and decided to seize the opportunity to apply for a month's leave of absence!

Mr. Zhang will definitely agree! A blessing in disguise?

I didn't expect that she would be happy every time she was sick and didn't have to go to class in modern times, and she was still the same here: "What's the importance of winning or losing temporarily? We have to look at the results."

"result?"

"Exactly."

Jiang Shangxian brought out his own wimpy theory: "Longevity and happiness are the key to survival."

As long as you stay healthy, you will be able to outlast all the people you hate sooner or later!

Zhao Yue pouted and covered her face with a handkerchief. She was already this old, and many of the people she hated were much younger than her. How could she endure it? Who would endure whom?

They stopped and started all the way to Chang'an City. Cui Bianxu's behavior became even more exaggerated. They entered through the Golden Light Gate and then separated. Before parting, he went to the carriage to chat with Jiang Shangxian. His tone was so gentle that Wang Mingqian almost felt his teeth ache. "I'll have the court doctor check you out later. Don't let you get sick. I'm afraid I won't be able to go back tonight. I'll come to see you in two days. Remember to ask someone to prescribe a tranquilizing decoction."

Then he reminded Yingzi: "Be alert at night. If you get startled and have a fever, don't delay. Ask Lao Fan to go to the mansion..."

With her mother-in-law beside her, Jiang Shangxian felt sweet and a little embarrassed: "The weather is cold, you need to change your clothes quickly, or you will get sick..."

Zhao Yue couldn't bear to watch. If it were any other time, she would definitely have scolded her son, but today she didn't dare to say a word after he made a mistake. She hoped that Cui Bianxu would pretend she didn't exist, and she secretly moved her body and tried to turn her face to the other side.

Unexpectedly, Cui Bianxu's expression changed immediately after he gave Jiang Shangxian his instructions. He said to her in a cold voice, "Mother, go back and take good care of yourself. You'd better not go out for the next few days."

As soon as the person left, Zhao Yue couldn't stop crying and almost fainted from crying. Who did she go out for?

Who knows what happened to that Madam Zhou that she brought thieves to rob her carriage?

Jiang Shangxian felt a little reluctant. Her mother-in-law was a good mother-in-law, but it was also a fact that she made mistakes. So many lives were lost. Not to mention that Cui Bianxu was angry, she felt sad in her heart. But after all, they had been together for such a long time and their relationship was still very good.

She gasped and turned to hug Zhao Yue's shoulders: "Madam, please don't cry. Your eyes are swollen like peaches. I'm afraid you won't be able to open them tomorrow. Jiulang is just worried about us..."

Zhao Yue let out an "Ah" and turned around and threw herself into her arms. Xiao Jiang was hit so hard that his eyes went black and he almost fainted. Yingzi reached out hurriedly to pull Jiang Shangxian back. For a moment, the carriage was in chaos.

The two carriages went directly back to Cui's mansion, while Cui Bianxu took his men and dragged the three thieves through the West Market, walked along the Yong'an Canal all the way to Da'anfang, then turned to Zhuque Avenue, and finally returned to the Dali Temple.

Although they only went around half of Chang'an City, the news that Cui Shaoqing of the Dali Temple and Wang Zhonglang Jiang of the Jinwu Guards had captured three robbers who were so daring as to rob people outside the city spread throughout Chang'an before the curfew.

We all know that the Jinwu Guard likes to take people for a walk, but I didn't expect that the Dali Temple also likes it!

He did it on purpose. The God of Wealth Casino was run in a very strange way, and the things it did were extremely suspicious. He had no idea what the people behind it were planning. He took these people for a walk to see if the people behind it would show up.
