Chapter 373 My father is Hong Chengchou
Hong Shiming almost cried, and he changed into a low-key dress. How could that old woman still recognize him at a glance!
"Master, come here quickly. It's the young master of General Hong. We are saved!"
Old Madam Su excitedly held the crutch and knocked it on the ground. When she heard the scream, E Enzhe quickly walked out with the help of the maid. She found that it was the master of Zhengluo Hong. She couldn't help but get excited and shouted softly: "Mr. Hong!"
If the eyes could kill someone, Hong Shiming had already killed Madam Su at this moment. Li Shutai's wife was not only the master of the Governor's Mansion, but also the princess of the Qing Dynasty. It would be fine if she had not seen her. Now she saw it. No matter how thick-skinned Hong Shiming was or how anxious he could escape, he could not let him go over.
"Young Master Hong, are you here to save us?" E Enzhe looked at Hong Shiming with an anxious look, afraid that Hong Shiming would say no.
Hong Shiming smiled bitterly, and the Governor's wife asked him speechlessly.
"Thank God, Buddha blessed, Hong Jinglei is the Wenqu Star in the sky, and his son will definitely be able to keep my master safe. Thank God..."
Old Madam Su regarded Hong Shiming as a hero like his father, and only said that Hong Shiming was here to save her master, but he didn't know that the other party was even worse than those servants.
"Mrs. Li, Taipingko will come here soon. You can't stay here anymore. We'd better leave here quickly."
Hong Shiming was thin-skinned and ran away if he couldn't turn his head, so he could only run away with E Enzhe. Uncle Chen was anxious, but it was hard to speak to stop him.
Eh Eunzhe was about to make a promise when the manager Li Guibao ran over yelled.
"Master. No, the back door is also called Taiping Kou. They are coming soon!"
"What? The back door is blocked!"
When he heard this, Hong Shiming was so scared that his legs became weak that he collapsed and collapsed on the ground. He cried to Uncle Chen: "I said I would continue to hide, you insisted that I come out. Now, the front and back doors are called Taiping Kou, so where do you tell me to run to me?...If they knew that my father was Hong Chengchou, they wouldn't cut me alive... It's over..."
E Enzhe was startled by Hong Shiming's actions, and then he realized that the young master of Hong Jinglei came over to save her, but was about to escape. He couldn't help but feel extremely disappointed and despised: It's so embarrassing that the young master of Hong Chengchou was so courageless!
Old Madam Su was also poured from the beginning to the end by a basin of cold water. Seeing Hong Shiming so useless, she laughed in anger: "Young Master Hong. You are not as good as an old woman like this!" She sighed again, knowing that you can't count on this wasteful young master who is in charge of the Five Provinces, and now she can only rely on herself. She said to the two maids who helped Eunzhe, "You two should help your wife and find a room to hide. The mansion is so big that Taiping Kou can't find his master so soon. Maybe the master will bring his troops back in a while. Remember, you must not speak out."
"What should you do, nanny?"
"Master, go quickly, the old woman is so old. How can Taipingko do to me!"
The old lady could understand that she was already very old. Could Taiping Kou still make things difficult for her, the old woman?
"Okay, mama, you have to be careful."
Eunzhe had no choice but to go find a place with the two maids as Madam Su wished, hoping that the master would come back to save her as soon as possible.
"Young Master, let's find a place to hide."
Uncle Chen helped Hong Shiming up from the ground. Hong Shiming looked at the old lady, then listened to the movement outside, and stomped his feet and followed E Enzhe and the others to hide.
Li Guibao followed behind, but after walking for a moment, he suddenly stopped. He looked back at Old Madam Su who was sitting there, and then gritted his teeth and touched his master's bedroom.
............
"Search out Li Lutai's wife for me!"
"Search it for me, even if I turn over the Governor's Office, I have to find Li Lutai's wife!"
Guan Tianshui led his men to search everywhere in the inner courtyard, hoping to find Li Lutai's wife, but the Governor's yamen was too big, and there were at least hundreds of houses in the inner courtyard, as well as garden pavilions, fish ponds, and so on. I couldn't find anyone for a while.
"Tell me quickly, where is Li Rutai's wife going?"
A general flag of the Taiping Army pointed at dozens of people with a knife and squatted on the ground and shivered, threatening them to tell E Enzhe's whereabouts.
"The little one doesn't know, the little one doesn't know."
A middle-aged servant cried and said that he didn't know where his master was. As a result, the general flag broke his neck after hearing him crying for two or three words.
Before the rest could scream, the general flag's knife pointed at a maid who was only sixteen or seventeen years old, and shouted viciously: "Say, where did the woman hide!"
"Don't kill me, don't kill me...I don't know, I don't know...Master is...Master is..." The maid was so scared that she couldn't cry, and she pointed to the row of houses behind her, "Madam may have been hiding, she hid. I really don't know where she is, you can find it yourself." He said, "I fell to the ground, hugging the female companion next to her and kept trembling.
"Hmph, are you hiding?"
The general flag looked at the house over there, with a grim smile on his face, and shouted to his subordinates: "Go and go and pull that woman out!"
.........
E Enzhe and two close maids hid in an inconspicuous guest room, while Hong Shiming and Chen Uncle were hiding under the bed in the next room. Hearing the footsteps coming from outside, the people in the two rooms changed their faces so much that they were frightened. One of the maids was so scared that they were about to cry. If E Enzhe hadn't blocked her hands, they would have almost cried.
"Search, search one by one!"
The doors were smashed open by the Taiping Army, and the sound of bottles and jars falling to the ground were heard. Hong Shiming looked at Uncle Chen in horror, and Uncle Chen also looked at him. The two of them looked at each other with despair and fear.
Finally, the door of the room where Hong Shiming was hiding was smashed open by the Taiping Army. The dazzling sunlight shone into the room, making Hong and Chen hidden under the bed transparent.
"Hey, there are people here!"
Several Taiping soldiers rushed into the room with a laugh and dragged Hong Shiming and Uncle Chen out. A soldier was about to carry a knife to scare him and told him where Li Rutai was hiding, but Hong Shiming thought the other party was going to kill him. He was so scared that he screamed: "My father is Hong Chengchou, my father is Hong Chengchou. You can't kill me, you can't kill me!" While screaming, he knelt on the ground, his crotch was obviously wet.
Hong Shiming's actions made Uncle Chen close his eyes in despair: I'm confused, you say that your father is Hong Chengchou, those Taiping Army can let you go!
"Who is Hong Chengchou?"
The Taiping Army was confused, not knowing which one was Hong Chengchou. The general flag, who was searching for other rooms in the distance, was excited when he heard it, and ran over as if he was injected with chicken blood. He shouted quickly: "Which one is Hong Chengchou's son!"
"I am, I am... General, please spare me, general..."
Hong Shiming kept kowtowing and wanted no face. The general flag lifted him up like a treasure. Haosheng looked at him for a few seconds and told someone to report the news to the official of the camp that he caught a big fish.
"Head of the Chief Flag, which one is Hong Chengchou?" The soldiers couldn't help asking when they saw that the Chief Flag regarded this kid as a treasure.
"He is a big man, an amazing big man."
The general flag put down Hong Shiming, stared at him and laughed. After a while, he remembered that Li Lutai's wife had not been found yet. She hurriedly asked her subordinates to continue searching, but found that Hong Chengchou's son was staring at the next room in a daze.
The general flag's eyes lit up, and he signaled his subordinates to watch Hong Shiming, quietly approached the room, and then kicked open the door suddenly. What caught his eye was a gorgeously dressed lady holding a gold bar in her hand to stuff it into her mouth.
"I want to swallow gold!"
The general flag said that it was soon, so he rushed forward and grabbed the gold bar from E Enzhe's hand and pushed her down on the bed. The two maids were so scared that they squatted on the ground and did not dare to move. E Enzhe couldn't swallow the gold, and then smashed his head to the bed next to him. As a result, before his head could be smashed, he was hugged and picked it up.
"Let me go, let me go!"
