Chapter 193 This is the Guard Barracks

After Ke Peng left, Tong Wei thought about it for a while. He felt more and more that Cai Jing had excluded him from the core layer and would not tell him anything. This was not a good sign.

Because this means that once his eldest brother Tong Guan cannot be saved, Cai Jing is likely to give him up too.

Although he is not as shrewd as his elder brother Tong Guan, he is not completely brainless. He can still think of this.

"No, I have to talk to my elder brother about this matter. Let him be careful about Cai Jing and don't listen to him on everything. This old guy is selfish. He thinks about himself first in everything. It's really going to happen.

At the critical moment, he will definitely betray us. When it comes to helping our eldest brother to escape guilt, we ourselves must have some countermeasures, otherwise we may fall into the hands of this old guy Cai Jing."

Thinking of this, he put on his coat and prepared to go to Tong Guan's place.

But at this moment, a maid came in and reported: "Sir, Aunt Mei and Aunt Yuan are fighting, and no one can persuade them to stop. Please go and have a look, sir."

Aunt Mei and Aunt Yuan were two concubines whom Tong Juan had just married a few months ago. However, they were not girls from good families, but were redeemed from brothels.

Because Aunt Mei and Aunt Yuan both hated each other for competing with them, so from the day they were brought back, they often quarreled and even got into fights.

But Tong Wei especially likes to watch them fight and get jealous, which makes him feel very satisfied with being liked by women, so he pretends not to know about the fights between them as long as they don't go too far.

Tong Wei was in a hurry to go to Tong Guan and had no time to take care of the two of them. He scolded: "Just fight them. It's not like they haven't been beaten before. They bother me with this little thing."

Seeing that he didn't take it seriously, the maid hurriedly said: "Aunt Mei's face was scratched by Aunt Yuan with a broken disc. Aunt Mei was chasing Aunt Yuan around with scissors to kill her, and Aunt Yuan's arms were scratched.

No one can persuade Aunt Mei now. If you don't go, Aunt Yuan will be killed by Aunt Mei."

"What!"

Tong Wei originally thought that they would just quarrel like before, and at most they would mess up each other's hair with their hands. He didn't expect that this time the quarrel would be so serious, and they would actually use sharp weapons like scissors. He felt angry and cursed:

"These two cunning women are getting more and more outrageous. It seems that I am too used to them, which makes them more and more unruly. This time I have to teach them a lesson and let them know who is the real one."

The head of the family.”

Then he stopped going to Tong Guan's place and took the maid to find Aunt Mei and Aunt Yuan.

Ke Peng came out of the Tong Mansion with money in his arms and said to Guo Bai and Zhao Xian: "Let's go, let's find a place to eat."

"What do you say, sir?" Guo Bai asked.

Ke Peng wanted to keep the thirty taels of silver, so he didn't tell anyone about the reward, and said, "Your Excellency, let us go have something to eat and have a rest, and then return to Caizhou to continue surveillance."

"We came all the way back, and the adults didn't even bother to reward us with any money, even a few hundred yuan. It's really stingy." Zhao Xian complained with some dissatisfaction.

Ke Peng was afraid that the people in Tong Mansion would hear and expose his lies, so he quickly turned around and looked at the gatekeeper of Tong Mansion, and whispered to Zhao Xian: "You don't want your life, what if the people in Tong Mansion hear about it?"

My lord, my lord must expose your skin."

"That's right, I think you are crazy about money. You don't want to see where this place is before you yell. You can just yell yourself, but don't involve us and be punished with you." Guo Bai also said.

When Zhao Xian heard what they said, he remembered that he was in front of the Tong Mansion. He was a little scared and looked timidly towards the gate of the Tong Mansion.

Ke Peng patted his arm gently and said: "Okay, okay, don't reward me if you don't want to reward me. It's not a big deal. If you feel really uncomfortable, I'll cover all the expenses from now on until you go back."

It’s all covered, you can eat or drink whatever you want, it’s all mine, that’s all."

Guo Bai was afraid that he would regret it, so he hurriedly said: "This is what you said, so we won't be polite."

"Don't worry, I'm true to my word. Since I promised you, it will definitely count. Let's go, find a restaurant, let's have a good meal, and then go back." Ke Peng said with a bold look.

From here back to Caizhou, the three people spent a lot of money on the way. Even if they went to a restaurant to have a good meal, they would only get two or three taels of money. He had a full thirty taels in his arms.

After deducting the expenses, there were still twenty-six or seven taels left, which was enough for him to take back and improve the lives of his whole family.

The three people led the horses and walked along the street. A large restaurant appeared in front of them. Guo Bai looked at the restaurant's sign "Deyi Restaurant", which is also very famous in Bianjing, and said: "I have never been like this before."

I’ve eaten in good restaurants, how about here?”

"No problem, it's here." Ke Peng said boldly.

Then the three people handed the horses to the waiter in the restaurant and followed another waiter who was entertaining the guests into the restaurant.

Across the street, two men gathered together and said in a low voice: "I'll keep an eye on you. Go tell the head of the capital."

"Yes." The other man left in a hurry.

A moment later, Wang Kui and three brothers were sitting together drinking tea in front of a tea stall on the roadside.

Suddenly a man rushed over and spoke in his ear. Wang Kui nodded gently and said, "I understand, you go back and keep watching. I'll be there in a moment."

"Yes." The man left.

Wang Kui took out the tea money from his body and put it on the table, and left with his three brothers. When they came to the intersection, he asked the three brothers to go to Deyi Restaurant to wait while he returned to the guard barracks.

Guard the military camp.

Guan Sheng, the commander of the capital in the right compartment, is leading the generals to supervise the training of the soldiers according to the daily training plan formulated by Huaju.

Although the daily training plan has only been implemented for a few days, the enthusiasm, coordination, standardization and consciousness of the soldiers have been greatly improved, making the escort look more and more like a regular army.

"Sir, Wang Kui is here and wants to report something important to you." A soldier walked up to Guan Sheng and said.

"Go and fetch him." Guan Sheng said.

The soldiers went for a while and brought Wang Kui. Guan Sheng asked, "What important thing is going on in Wangdutou?"

Wang Kui came forward and told him the situation. Guan Sheng thought for a moment and whispered to him: "Find an opportunity to bring them here."

"Yes." Wang Kui cupped his fists and saluted and left.

An hour later.

Ke Peng, Zhao Xian, and Guo Bai came out of Deyi Restaurant after being well fed. It could be seen from the expressions of the three of them that they were very happy with their meal.

"A big restaurant is a big restaurant. It is indeed much better than those small restaurants on the roadside. This meal is really comfortable." Guo Bai patted his belly and said proudly.

"It's comfortable and the food is comfortable, but the price is a bit expensive. The three of us actually spent more than four taels of silver, which was enough for us to travel back and forth to Caizhou several times." Zhao Xian felt a little sorry for the four taels of silver he spent.

This was not his fault, but it still hurts a little.

Ke Peng smiled generously and said: "As long as the brothers are happy eating, spending a few taels of silver is nothing."

"Brother Ke is still so bold."

Guo Bai looked at Zhao Xian with some contempt and said, "You must learn from Brother Ke and treat money like dirt. This is the real hero."

Ke Peng secretly laughed in his heart and said: "Anyway, it's your money that I originally spent. Of course I treat it like dirt. If it were my own money, I wouldn't treat you like this."

The three people took the horse from the waiter and walked slowly towards Chenzhou Gate, planning to ride after leaving the city. After all, there were too many people on Bianliang Street and it was too inconvenient to ride on horseback.

The three people were walking forward when suddenly three carriages came in front of them. The three people led the horses and stepped aside, preparing to wait for the carriages to pass before leaving.

Soon three carriages came to them, and all three people's eyes were attracted by the three carriages. At this time, a dozen men standing behind them suddenly came over and surrounded them, blocking the sight of everyone around them.

Already.

Ke Peng was about to tell these people to stay away from them, when suddenly three people were hit hard on the back of their necks at the same time, and all three of them fainted at the same time.

The people standing next to them hurriedly held them up. At this time, the doors of the three carriages opened at the same time. The people holding them put the three of them onto different carriages, and then got on the carriages together and left.

The remaining people took their horses and slowly followed the carriage.

From the time Ke Peng and the three people were knocked unconscious to the moment they got on the carriage and left, the whole process took less than ten seconds. Everything was so calm and natural, and no one around them noticed anything unusual.

Half an hour later, the three carriages entered the escort barracks and stopped in front of the commander's barracks on the right side of Guan Sheng.

Later, Ke Peng, Guo Bai, and Li Xian were taken off the carriage and brought into Guan Sheng's command barracks.

Guan Sheng was sitting on the commander's chair in his right compartment, with four military guards standing on each side. When he saw Wang Kui bringing Ke Peng, Guo Bai, and Li Xian in, he nodded slightly at Wang Kui.

The head said: "Thank you for your hard work, Wang Dutou."

"This is what you should do in a humble position." Wang Kui said.

Guan Sheng looked at Ke Peng and the other three and said, "Wake them up."

Someone went to bring three buckets of water and poured it on their faces. Ke Peng and the other three woke up immediately.

"Where is this place and how did we get here?"

Ke Peng, Guo Bai, and Li Xian stood up from the ground. They saw officers and soldiers standing around them, and a majestic general sitting directly in front of them. The three of them were a little panicked.

"Who are you?" Ke Peng asked, suppressing the fear in his heart.

"This is the guard camp." Guan Sheng stared at him and said.

"What, this is the guard camp!"

When they heard that this was the guard camp, Ke Peng, Guo Bai, and Li Xian suddenly turned pale with fright, because they thought of Yang Qi and Xu Kui, who died tragically in Tong Wei's hands a few days ago.

The three of them were also present at the time and saw with their own eyes how they were tortured to death by Tong Wei.

Therefore, they were very afraid of arresting them because they wanted to avenge Yang Qi and Xu Kui.

"General, general, I wonder why you brought us here?" Ke Peng boldly asked Guan Sheng, clasping his fists.

Guan Sheng said with dignity: "You should know it very well, so why ask more questions?"
