Chapter 15

Li Qiang, Zhu Sande, and Lin Zheng were shocked when they saw that Tian Ke, a guard in imperial robes, had been caught in such a short time.

"Brother Li, what should we do? Even he was caught so easily. Our brothers are no match for this female bandit!"

Lin Zheng's hand holding the knife couldn't help but tremble.

"Let's just hand over the jade. They are outnumbered and it's important to survive now."

Zhu Sande was also shocked and broke into a cold sweat.

Li Qiang immediately took out the jade token from his arms, raised it above his head, and shouted: "Woman, this jade is for you, let us go."

After hearing this, the female bandit glanced at Tian Ke, and then burst into laughter.

"If you had known each other earlier and handed it over earlier, I actually don't want to cause trouble, but you dare to call us untouchables, so this will not be a good thing. Brothers, come to me and take them all!"

After saying this, the people behind her raised their weapons and rushed towards several people. The situation was still the same, and they caught all three of them within a few seconds.

The female bandit stepped forward and kicked Li Qiang, then looked at Mo Qingwan and the others, and gave an order to have them taken over.

"Brother Li, I can't use any strength at all. The fist I punched out is as soft as cotton." Lin Zheng was tied into a crab and thrown to the ground.

"Me too!" Zhu Sande said.

"Oops, it seems that we were tricked by that little bitch. There must be something wrong with the food these days!"

Li Qiang woke up from his dream and stared in Huang Suisui's direction.

Mo Qingwan smiled and muttered in a low voice: "There must be something wrong. I've been entertaining you for a few days with good food and drink. If I don't give you some food, wouldn't it be in vain? Otherwise, you are worthy of me to serve you."

?”

"Who are you?" The female bandit glanced at Zhao Feng and then at Zhao Guilin behind him.

Mo Qingwan rolled his eyes, stepped forward and said with cupped hands: "This heroine, my father-in-law is the famous general Zhao Feng, and my mother-in-law is Mu Xiuying, the only daughter of the old general Mu Yan. We are his family.

This time he was framed by the Dog Emperor and his family was exiled through this place."

Just now I heard her calling the emperor a thief, and Mo Qing would never be wrong to give in to someone else.

"Zhao Feng?" Upon hearing this, the female bandit subconsciously glanced at the man holding the ax behind her, and sure enough, his eyes had turned scarlet.

"It turns out it's General Zhao. I've admired his name for a long time. If that's the case, then you guys can leave," the female bandit said.

When the Zhao family heard this, they felt relieved and were about to leave.

"You can't leave!" Suddenly a cold voice came from behind.

Mo Qingwan turned around suddenly and saw the man holding two axes staring at them fiercely.

"Second boss? Why is this so?" The female bandit looked at him.

"Master, I don't care about the others, but Zhao Feng can't leave!" the man said with red eyes.

The female bandit was a little confused: "But he is not a bad person, and he is no longer an official..."

The man said with scarlet eyes: "He is not a bad person, but the soldiers he led killed my brother! How could it have happened if he hadn't been lax in controlling him? If I let him go, how could I be worthy of my dead father and mother and my tragic death of my younger brother?

?”

When Zhao Feng heard this, he immediately took two steps forward and said, "This is impossible. All the Zhao soldiers I led are heroes, how could they harm the people!"

"Yes, is there some misunderstanding?" Mu Xiuying also said.

"How could I even admit my mistakes to my enemies? It's you and Zhao Jiajun. My family is in a village in Xiguan. I have been going out to work, leaving my mother and younger brother at home to farm. My younger brother has been mute since he was a child and cannot speak. That day I received a letter from my younger brother.

Talk about old mother

He died of illness and wanted to come to me. Unexpectedly, he was caught by you as an enemy spy before he got very far from Xiguan. He was tortured and beaten to death when he failed to extract a confession. I hate you officials. I swore to heaven and earth that I would give

My brother wanted to take revenge, so he went up to the mountain and became a bandit."

Mo Qing saw that his face was already filled with tears as he was talking. It didn't seem to be fake, so he looked sideways at Zhao Feng.

Zhao Feng's face was already darkened. After a long time, he bowed to the man and cupped his hands.

"Dad!" Zhao Guilin exclaimed.

But Mu stopped him and said, "I heard your father mentioned this matter, please just listen to your father quietly."

Only then did Zhao Guilin stop and clenched his fists tightly with both hands.

When the man saw Zhao Feng like this, he was also stunned.

"This good man, I, Zhao Feng, have been in the army for thirty years and have never wronged anyone. But only this child. Five years ago in Xiguan, my military advisor was ordered to investigate enemy spies and captured a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy outside Xiguan.

A young boy, he couldn't speak, but he had something from the Asukabe royal family. That was the Asukabe. They were all brave and good at fighting, and they were also our army's biggest enemies at that time. The two armies were in a desperate situation, and our army suffered heavy casualties.

At that time, they were unwilling to let go of any clues and accidentally beat the young man to death during the interrogation. Later, I found out about this and sent people to investigate. Only then did I realize that the young man was just an ordinary farmer. I also dismissed the military advisor.

But the big mistake has been made! What's the use of all this? You're right, it was my lax control of my subordinates that caused my subordinates to torture and extort confessions without finding out the truth, thus killing an innocent life."

When the man heard this, his eyes widened and he asked, "What's that Asukabe thing?"

"It's a string of beads made of ox bones. On it is the name of the third prince of Asukabe, Asariro. And the place where your brother was captured was also the place where the two armies were fighting. It was precisely because of this that aroused the suspicion of the military advisor.

," Zhao Feng replied.

The man's expression suddenly became distorted, he took three steps back, and then burst into tears.

"It turns out that the bead was given to me by Ming Rilang. I saw that he liked it, so I left it with him before I left home. It was me who killed my own brother!"

Seeing him like this, the female bandit walked over and comforted him: "Second Master, people cannot be resurrected after death. All of this is a mistake. Please forgive me."

Zhao Guilin walked up and helped Zhao Feng up, and said to the still crying man: "Father's debt is repaid by his son. If you want revenge, just kill me and let my family go."

Zhao Feng pulled him behind him: "What nonsense are you talking about! Back off!"

Zhao Guilin shouted: "Dad! I am just a useless sick boy. Compared with dad, I am nothing! My son is too weak to serve the country, so why can't he fulfill his filial piety?"

"Nonsense! I told you to step back!" Zhao Feng pushed him, and Zhao Guilin staggered back a few steps.

Mo Qingwan hurriedly stepped forward to support him.

The man raised his head and looked at Zhao Guilin and sneered: "A father's debt must be paid by his son. As an elder brother, I should avenge my younger brother. I will kill you today and then take my own life. Only then can this revenge be considered avenged."

Come on!"

When Mo Qing heard it later, what kind of nonsense was this?

She stood in front of Zhao Guilin and asked loudly: "Brother, I think you are also an upright man. You must understand the principle that wrongdoers have their own debtors, right?

At that time, the two armies were fighting, and it was already inappropriate for your brother to accidentally enter the middle. What's more, he also carried a token of the enemy's royal family. If it were an ordinary object, it would be nothing more, but it belonged to the prince!

If my guess is correct, this string of beads must have a special meaning in the Tomorrow Department, otherwise how could it arouse the suspicion of the military advisor?"

Zhao Feng nodded and said: "That's true. The Tomorrow Ministry has always respected the long-haired cow as a sacred object. The long-haired cow is so precious. Its bones and meat can be used as medicine. It grows on the mountain snowfields all year round. Things made from its bones are even more popular in the future."

It is a thing belonging to the royal family, not to mention that it is a whole string of beads, which symbolizes supreme glory, so the military advisor immediately suspected that this young man had leaked our military information."

Mo Qing finally understood: "That's right, anyone will be suspicious if you tell me this. I would like to ask you, how come you, an ordinary citizen, have an intersection with the prince of the Tomorrow clan and have such a precious thing?"

thing?"

The female bandit felt strange when she heard it, and asked: "Yes, Second Master, how can you have something so bright? In recent years, our government has banned people from interacting with the eighteen tribes outside the pass."

Upon hearing this, the man's expression became flustered: "I... am the head of the family. Our family has been farmers for generations, and our family is very poor. So I took the risk and took the mountain goods to sell to tomorrow's department. This time it's just a matter of time."

Got to know Tomorrow Lang."
