200 Chapter 200 Verification
As expected, the rope above had been cut off at waist height. He ran back in a panic and asked, “Mistress, I think they were rescued!”
“Don’t tell me they have helpers?” Doctor Luo cried out in alarm.
Gu Chengrui and Zhou Ying looked at each other and had a rough idea of what was happening. If the other party’s people had saved them, there was no need to clean up the scene so thoroughly.
In that case, it could only be someone on their side. Thinking of the news that Sun Hongliang had revealed, the couple smiled. This saved them a lot of trouble.
After that, they took the ox-cart and returned to town safely.
When they parted, Zhou Ying gave Gu Chengrui the money she had found today to buy another carriage and then returned to the restaurant.
When Sun Hongliang saw Zhou Ying and Fang Qing return, he heaved a huge sigh of relief. “Mistress, you’re back. Is Doctor Gu alright? ”
“He’s fine and doing well.” After Zhou Ying said this, she diverted Fang Qing to the back kitchen. She walked to Sun Hongliang and asked, “Do you still remember what the person who sent you the message looked like?”
“I’m ashamed to say this, but my negligence caused you to suffer.” Sun Hongliang apologized and told her what happened after they left. At the same time, he also revealed to her that when they went out, there would be people protecting them in the dark.
With her thoughts confirmed, Zhou Ying heaved a sigh of relief and replied, “I don’t blame you for this. You were just as concerned and confused, too. I mean, I didn’t react in time either.
“But we have to be more careful in the future. Fortunately, we prepared some self-defense items in the carriage beforehand; otherwise, we really wouldn’t have been able to come back today.”
“Yes, I will find the messenger as soon as possible. It’s best if you don’t go out for the time being.”
“I will remind Chengrui.” Zhou Ying nodded and told him a total of 180 silvers, about 50 silver taels from each a.s.sa.s.sin, and then turned back to the kitchen.
However, even if she did not punish Sun Hongliang, it did not mean that he would not be punished. She had just returned home that night when Manager Liu summoned Sun Hongliang over.
Sun Hongliang looked at Manager Liu’s serious expression and immediately understood what was happening. He knelt on one knee and apologized, “Captain Liu, please punish me for my negligence.”
“You still have the nerve to ask for punishment? If they hadn’t prepared in advance today, Zhou Ying and the other two would have died in that forest. How would we explain this to General Zhou?” Manager Liu scolded angrily.
“What have you learned all these years?” He pointed at Sun Hongliang’s nose and scolded. “You can’t even tell if the person is problematic or not?”
“It’s a small oversight. Please punish me, captain.” Sun Hongliang lowered his head in defeat.
“Go back and write down your punishment a hundred times.
“If it weren’t for the fact that they can’t do without you, I would have sent you back to the base and trained you for a month.” Manager Liu waved his hand.
“Yes.” Sun Hongliang thought of the messenger and told him the truth, “I feel that this person is not simple and must be investigated as soon as possible.
“In addition, Zhou Ying told me a piece of news today. She said that whether it was the people who hunted her today or those who hunted Gu Chengrui a few days ago, each had about 50 taels of silver on them.”
“50 taels of silver?” Shopkeeper Liu immediately understood what was going on. This was most likely the reward for their mission, which meant that these people were from other places. It seemed that Qiao Lansheng’s backer had emerged, as General Zhou had said.
“Is there a mark on the banknote?” he asked.
