Chapter 37 Are you Zhang Wei? (Please read more!)

Imperial Capital of the Ming Dynasty, inner city.

A deep alley, a hidden corner, and a seemingly abandoned mansion.

"Are you sure this is here?"

Xu Miaojin walked in front, Lian'er followed beside her, and the waiter in the restaurant who led the way nodded firmly.

"I'm warning you, if you lie to my young lady, you'll be reaping the rewards!"

Lian'er looked at the boy threateningly.

"Youngster, you will never dare to lie. The person you are looking for was arrested here. I was just passing by delivering food at that time, and saw a little girl being tied up from a distance. I was so scared that I squatted in the grass. I've been shaking for a long time."

"And I heard that there are more than one or two girls who were caught in this house."

The waiter in the restaurant looked scared.

"If you hadn't given me too much, I really wouldn't want to wade through this muddy water."

"Thanks."

Xu Miaojin took out one or two pieces of silver from Xiuhe's purse and handed it to the young man. The young man immediately took it happily, nodded and said, "Thank you, Miss."

"Then...I won't go there next."

The waiter in the restaurant took the money and ran back like a thief.

"Miss, if you give him money like this, it won't be a loss if he deceives us."

Lian'er next to her looked at the boy running away with an unhappy look on her face.

"We have so many people here, how dare he, a waiter in a restaurant, tell lies."

"What the lady said is that if that guy dares to lie, I will go to the restaurant to catch him and beat him with a cane for a hundred times!"

Among the dozen or so servants following Xu Miaojin, the leader was a burly bearded man, nicknamed Daniel.

"Let's go."

Xu Miaojin frowned slightly and came to the door of the mansion.

"Knock on the door."

Then the big cow stepped forward and started knocking.

"Bang bang bang."

It rang several times, but no response.

"no one there?"

Lian'er next to her looked at the silent door and couldn't help but said aloud.

"Someone."

Xu Miaojin observed carefully and glanced at the muddy ground to the left of the door. There were clear footprints, which were obviously just stepped on.

"Keep knocking."

Daniel knocked on the door again, but there was still no response.

"Miss, what should I do?"

Lian'er was anxious.

Ping'er didn't come back all night last night. She was worried and scared all night and stayed up all night. Now she has two dark circles under her eyes.

"Miss, please step aside."

After speaking, the big cow stepped back seven or eight meters, bent down, took a few deep breaths, and then roared loudly, like a crazy big buffalo rushing out, hitting the door with a bang, and the door clanged. ' was knocked away.

Xu Miaojin and her people quickly followed in.

As soon as I stepped over the threshold, my steps stopped.

In this large mansion, sixty or seventy soldiers with swords stood, and there were more than thirty shooters with short crossbows on both sides. Hundreds of pairs of eyes fell on Xu Miaojin and his party.

Xu Miaojin's heart tightened and she thought to herself, this is bad, this is stepping on a wolf's den.

Originally, she thought he was a kidnapping dealer. If he couldn't redeem the person with money, he would have to rob him by force. So she specially brought more than ten servants from the house who could beat him, just in case.

But at this moment, it seems that this is not a human kidnapper.

Xu Miaojin was born as a general, and had been accustomed to seeing swords and weapons since he was a child. The armor, swords, and crossbows on these people were obviously military weapons.

This is obviously a private soldier.

According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, raising private soldiers is a capital crime of genocide.

"Haha, I didn't cherish the opportunity given to you and insisted on knocking on the door. In this case, I can't blame you."

The old man at the head and these hundreds of dead soldiers were Zhu Shangbing's private soldiers left in the capital. They were originally intended to be used by Zhu Yunwen to find opportunities to assassinate Zhu Xiongying.

Now Zhu Shangbing was taken to the prison to be executed. The old man originally planned to lead people to rob the prison of the Ministry of Punishment at night, but unexpectedly someone knocked on the door during the mobilization meeting.

I originally wanted to ignore it, but I didn't expect that I kicked my nose and face and actually hit the door.

My uncle can't bear it, but my aunt can't!

"Miss, what should I do..."

Lian'er pulled the corner of Xu Miaojin's clothes, her body trembling with nervousness. She was just a maid in the mansion, and she had never seen such a scene.

Daniu and more than a dozen servants guarded Xu Miaojin and Lian'er in the middle. Daniu was not afraid. In his early years, he was a soldier under Xu Huizu. For some reasons, he left the army and became a retainer in the Duke of Wei's palace.

"Miss, you can run out in a moment and don't look back."

There was a desire to die in Daniel's eyes. Even if he risked his life, he would still protect Xu Miaojin from danger.

"killed."

The leader, the old man, waved his hand fiercely.

Whoosh!

The sound of arrows and crossbows piercing the wind sounded.

Xu Miaojin subconsciously covered her eyes with her hands, but the splash of blood she imagined did not come.

Blocking his eyes with his green onion-like fingers, he opened his eyes slightly and looked through the gaps between his fingers. He saw hundreds of soldiers in the courtyard all lying in a pool of blood. The old man at the head had his round eyes wide open.

There is a bloody hole the size of a thumb between his eyebrows.

He fell forward with a 'bang' sound.

"What, what's going on?"

Newton was stunned. With just one breath, hundreds of elite soldiers were killed in an instant.

And from beginning to end, he didn't even see anyone take action.

"Go find Ping'er quickly."

Xu Miaojin was the first to react.

Lian'er hurriedly led the servants into the house, leaving only Daniu guarding Xu Miaojin.

Xu Miaojin's eyes were focused on the dead soldier, her eyebrows furrowed.

"Miss Miaojin."

Just when Xu Miaojin was wondering how these soldiers were killed, a voice came from outside the door.

Xu Miaojin subconsciously turned her head to look, and saw a face that had appeared in her midnight dreams for several days in a row. She couldn't believe it subconsciously, thinking she was dazzled.

It wasn't until this face came closer that I finally confirmed it.

Daniel moved to block in front of Xu Miaojin and looked at the intruder warily.

"Don't be rude."

"This is Mr. Lu, my savior."

Xu Miaojin couldn't restrain her joy of seeing each other again.

She originally thought that the two would never see each other again in this life. After all, what the other party left behind was a pair of mandarin ducks and jade. After all, the other party left without saying goodbye.

When Daniel heard that he was his young lady's savior, he stepped aside and at the same time bowed respectfully to the visitor.

"How is this going?"

'Lu Ziqiao' took 'Zhang Wei' into the house and was shocked when they saw the dead bodies on the ground.

"I do not know either."

Xu Miaojin shook his head.

"I'm here to look for the little girl who was lost in the house."

"Why did Mr. Lu come here?"

Zhu Xiongying smiled and shook his head, pointing to Chang Tianci, who was nearly two meters away and had bronze skin and flesh all over his body.
