182. The Carpenter's Daughter
182. The daughter of the carpenter's house
"I don't know who asked you to inquire?"
"I don't know, this is our rule. We only do things and don't ask where the other party comes from. However, those people sound like they came from the capital."
"I heard you have the accent from the capital."
There was a slight panic in the robber's eyes, "My little father stayed in the capital when he was a child, and his accent was there, so our accent was the same as my father."
For such a confidential matter, I just asked two people to inquire about it. Are the people from the capital a fool?
However, these two people have just suffered such torture and dared to lie, which shows that they are very secretive about their identities.
This is even more intriguing.
Tao Tao looked at the robber on the right, "It seems that he doesn't want to walk out of this house alive. I think you are not young anymore. You have old men and young men at home! What should you do if you die? Should you consider it for your family?"
The man who was talking nonsense just now was trembling when he heard Tao Tao say this.
"I said, I'll tell the truth, what I said just now is not true... I'll say again..."
Tao Tao tapped his mute hole.
"I just gave you the opportunity, but you didn't cherish it. Now you don't have the opportunity. There are not so many opportunities in life. I hate lie the most. I think I am smart, treat others as fools, and waste my time."
Tao Tao said, kicking the man out.
In addition, the thief saw Tao Tao's delicate body, but acted simply and ruthlessly. He did not dare to hide it anymore and explained everything clearly.
It turned out that the two of them were people around King Zheng. Sentenced by King Zheng, they came to Sankeshu Village to find Tao Yuxuan to ask for his wood carving skills.
King Zheng is the fifth son of the current emperor.
The emperor has five sons in total, and the eldest prince was born by the queen. He was made the crown prince shortly after he was born.
Except for the crown prince, the other four sons were all born by other concubines. After the age of sixteen, they each received fiefs and were granted the title of king.
King Zheng was the youngest and his mother was the most favored, so his fiefdom was divided into the closest place to the capital.
Before, when Tao Yuxuan was in the capital, King Zheng invited Tao Yuxuan as his guest of honor.
But Tao Yuxuan is just a folk artist to put it bluntly.
He was casual and unrestrained, did not like to be complicated and etiquette, and did not like to deal with these royal relatives. He was unmoved, whether it was coercion or temptation. Later, he simply disappeared without a trace, and once he disappeared for a full twelve years.
King Zheng was extremely patient and had never given up looking for Tao Yuxuan's whereabouts for twelve years.
Until not long ago, Mrs. Tao, Cao couldn't help but send a letter of peace to her family, who had been disconnected for twelve years.
King Zheng was placed in the inner workings of Mrs. Tao's mother's house and immediately told King Zheng about this.
Zheng Wangshun found this place after learning the clues.
However, Tao Yuxuan's family did not easily contact strangers, so they could only go to the Hu family.
They revealed their identities and promised the Hu family, saying that if the Hu family could find out Tao Yuxuan's wood carving skills, they would not only promise a considerable amount of money to the Hu family, but also ask Hu Lang to go to the palace to be an imperial physician.
In order to achieve high-ranking officials and generous salaries, the Hu family of course did their best to do it.
At the beginning, they made indirect moves. Unexpectedly, when they mentioned the wood carving, Tao Yuxuan not only denied it, but also changed his attitude towards the Hu family, and even wanted to destroy the engagement.
In the end, the Hu family tried every possible way to comfort Tao Yuxuan temporarily gave up the idea of remorse of the marriage.
In order to find out the unique skills of wood carving, the Hu family often visited the Tao family as their relatives. By chance, they discovered the wood carving bird played by the Tao family. They found a news from the child that said that the key to the unique skills was a sentence, a spell, or something like that, and the wood carving would come alive.
King Zheng asked the Hu family to continue to investigate clearly, but unexpectedly, the Hu family was reckless and actually tied up the Tao family's children. Not only did they accidentally kill the Tao family's children, but they also killed Tao Yuxuan.
King Zheng was furious and thought that the Hu family was extremely stupid and simple and crude, which ruined his major affairs. Therefore, he sent two of their confidants to visit Mrs. Tao in person.
Unexpectedly, when I came to Mrs. Tao's room, I couldn't find Mrs. Tao.
As soon as he came out of Mrs. Tao's house, he was knocked unconscious by Tao Tao and caught here.
"You are visiting Mrs. Tao? How do you visit?"
"We have already inquired about it. I heard that Mrs. Tao has an ordinary qualification and is just an ordinary woman. If such a woman uses her four daughters and her entire family to coerce, she will not worry about not telling the secret of the Tao family."
Tao Tao's back felt cold when she heard this.
So, in my previous life, Mrs. Tao really committed suicide.
Tao Yuxuan did not tell his father about his wood carving skills, so he naturally would not tell his cowardly wife. In his opinion, whoever he told would be woe to him.
A weak woman, when others use her children and relatives to coerce her, is to destroy herself.
Tao Tao knocked the man out and threw both of them into the cellar.
After all this trouble, the night almost passed.
But Tao Tao had already planned that she had to go to Hu's house.
The Hu family is in the town, three kilometers away.
Tao Tao jumped out of the gate of the Tao house from the courtyard wall.
She ran towards the Hu family.
When we arrived at the Hu family, it was around four o'clock in the morning. It was the darkness before dawn, and it was the time when people slept the most and the darkest.
Tao Tao came directly to Hu Lang's house based on the original owner's memory of his previous life.
There was a snoring inside, and from the breath, there was a woman in the room.
This is not surprising.
Hu Lang is four years older than the original owner and is twenty years old.
Before marrying the original owner, Hu Lang had already had a girl from a wife.
He even gave birth to a man and a woman for him.
Without further ado.
Ceramic gently opened the door bolt, touched the bed with the snoring, lit Hu Lang's acupoints, threw him into his carry-on space, and Tao Tao quickly left Hu Lang's house.
She jumped onto the roof, and then left Hu's house after a few leaps.
The ceramic horse rushed back non-stop, and when it arrived at the Tao house, the sky was already light.
Old Master Tao, Mrs. Tao and three sisters all walked out of the cellar.
Perhaps because they didn't have a good rest in the cellar, they all looked tired.
Tao Tao asked the two youngest sisters to go back to their room to continue sleeping.
Grandfather, mother and second sister stayed. They wanted to know the result of Tao Tao's actions this night, and Tao Tao told her about the two thieves.
When Mrs. Tao heard that the two thieves were coming towards her, she was frightened. If her eldest daughter had not let her hide in the cellar, she might have lost her life.
I also heard that it was because she carried her husband on her back and sent a letter to her parents' home, which led to the disaster that King Zheng brought about.
Mrs. Tao was full of regret and blamed herself.
Tao Yuxuan told her not to contact her parents' family. They have been fleeing the capital for twelve years, and she and her parents' family are in a state of life and death.
