Chapter 182: The Old Man Passed By

After Aunt Ying left, Chunxiao wanted to ask He Linwan if the "Cui Yan" in the teahouse today was the same person as the ranger named Cui Yan she had dealt with before, but the more she thought about it later, the more she felt that the two had nothing in common, and her girl had never seen that ranger, how could she recognize it? She was a little suspicious that she had heard it wrong.

But He Linwan didn't mean to mention this matter at all, and Chunxiao didn't dare to ask rashly, and in the end, she almost hurt herself, so she could only think that the next time she went to deliver a letter, she must keep her eyes open and see it clearly. As for the contents of the rough straw letter that He Lin received later, Chunxiao didn't have much curiosity.

After He Linwan sent Aunt Ying away, she did not pass the time by reading and writing in her small study as usual, but went to the study in the main room.

The place where they live is not far from the place where the Dengzhou camp is stationed, and He Guanglie usually goes directly to the barracks for office, and the house is small, so there is no outer courtyard for the male owner to work and entertain guests.

Although He Guanglie doesn't like to dance and write, Wei also cleaned up one of the three main rooms as a study, and other people's studies are full of calligraphy and paintings, but He Guanglie's study is full of his collection of swords, bows and crossbows, and the big rosewood desk in the middle of the study is almost never used by the male owner. On the contrary, Wei's often looks at the ledger here on weekdays to settle accounts.

After He Lin entered the study late, he ignored the furious weapons in the room, and walked straight to the map hanging on the north wallβ€”this was probably the only thing He Guanglie would touch on weekdays except for weapons in the study.

He Linwan stood in front of the map and roughly traced the route several times in his mind. Finally, I fixed my eyes on a certain place on the map.

He Linwan's finger lightly swiped over a place name called "Jiang Mountain", and then frowned.

When it was almost night, He Linwan was waiting for the family to eat together in Wei's room, He Guanglie and Xiaohuzi, one tall and one short, opened the curtain and walked in, and brought in a cold wind, and the originally warm hall was immediately blown cold.

Wei saw that there was still a layer of unmelted snowflakes on the heads and cloaks of the father and son, and hurriedly ordered the maids to put on hot water, carry charcoal basins, and take dry clothes, and the house was in a mess for a while.

Wei Shi took a handkerchief to the father and son to pat the snowflakes on their bodies, and at the same time said to He Guanglie in a gentle and reproachful voice: "You can go out by yourself in this kind of weather." Why do you want to take the children out too?"

He Guanglie sat down and lowered his head and let Wei wipe his hair. On the other hand, he argued unhappily: "Hey, I took him there! The little rabbit came up on his own horse, and he couldn't run away!"

That being said, He Guanglie's tone was a little proud.

In the past, when he was in the capital, Xiaohuzi followed Wei's inseparable, but after arriving here, Xiaohuzi was not very close to He Guanglie. But because He Guanglie began to teach him martial arts. He began to be happy to follow He Guanglie. Especially a while ago, He Guanglie took him to the school yard of a military camp on a whim to ride horses and shoot arrows. Since then, Xiaohuzi has secretly followed He Guanglie out whenever he has the opportunity.

He Guanglie has always felt that boys should be raised extensively, so if he is fine, Xiaohuzi secretly follows him, he should not see him follow, if there is business or his son is annoyed, he will use force to beat Xiaohuzi back. Gradually, the little tiger also mastered the rules. As soon as he realized that He Guanglie really couldn't take him with him, he came back obediently.

Although Wei was worried, he saw that Xiaohuzi's eyes were shining after he came back from outside, and his whole body was full of vitality.

Xiaohuzi glanced at his parents who were about to quarrel again, and walked to the side to take the hot tea handed over by the maid, and drank it all with his neck tilted.

He Linwan couldn't help but laugh at Xiaohuzi's movements, Xiaohuzi is nine years old this year, because he often exercises to grow stronger than ordinary children, but boys develop late, no matter how strong he is, he can only reach He Linwan's shoulders, because he always likes to run to the barracks, so he learned some of the men's style in the barracks, for example, when drinking tea, he likes to drink it all with his neck on his back as much as he drinks, and he straightens his waist when he sits and sits and lies down, once he didn't know who said that men in the barracks have manliness, for this "manliness" He endured not taking a bath for a month, and insisted on refusing to change his shoes and socks, Wei Shi Nai was so angry that he quarreled with He Guanglie, He Guanglie only pinched his nose and tied Xiaohuzi to take a bath, so smoked that he couldn't bear to reward Xiaohuzi with a meal of "fried meat with bamboo shoots".

After eating, He Linwan did not leave the main room as usual, but personally made a cup of tea for He Guanglie.

Wei glanced at the father and daughter, ignored them, and went to the inner room to reconcile the ledger. Xiaohuzi looked at the back of his mother leaving, then looked at his father and sister, and finally sat on the kang on the side and knocked on the pine nuts, not planning to move the nest.

He Guanglie and He Sanye crossed Erlang's legs and poured half a cup of tea in one go: "Something?"

He Linwan thought for a while before asking, "Father, I remember that the Dengzhou battalion has always been in charge of patrolling near Jiangshan, I don't know who the general of the patrol is this decade?"

Only then did He Guanglie glare at He Linwan: "Why are you asking this!"

He Linwan smiled meekly: "A friend will be passing by here recently, so I inquire." ”

He Guanglie glanced at He Linwan and scratched his head with some toothache.

He Lin was naughty and mischievous in his late childhood, and at that time he could teach him a lesson without mercy, and he had broken several sticks. But now that his daughter has grown up, she seems to be more and more well-behaved and obedient, which makes him feel unreasonable to talk to her a little louder now. Although it is gratifying for her daughter to be obedient and sensible, I don't know why He Guanglie sometimes feels aggrieved.

Although he thought so, He Guanglie still coughed and thought about it: "Oh, it's Gongsun Yang." ”

He Linwan blinked: "Gongsun Yang, is it from the Gongsun family?"

"Gongsun Yang is Gongsun Xian's cousin, and he is much more reliable than Gongsun Xian. He Guanglie has been fighting with Gongsun Xian for many years, and he is used to casually belittling him, "Your friend doesn't have to worry about being stopped and blackmailed. ”

The candle flame on the table suddenly jumped, and the room suddenly darkened a little, and He Linwan casually picked up a small pair of scissors on the table and trimmed the wick of the candle, as if he was thoughtful.

Although He Guanglie didn't care much about He Linwan's daily friends, he also knew that He Linwan had some dealings with the Zhao family who was doing business, and when he heard He Linwan ask, he thought he was helping the Zhao family inquire. But after saying that, I thought about it a little and felt that it was wrong, the Zhao family's foundation in this place was deeper than him, and it was very well dotted up and down, how could he need He Lin to ask about these things later?

He Guanglie glanced at He Linwan suspiciously, and suddenly his eyebrows jumped as if he had thought of something, and his gaze at He Linwan became a little serious: "This friend of yours is from the capital?"

He Linwan put down the small scissors in his hand, did not deny it, and said in a steady tone: "It's from the capital." According to the schedule, it is estimated that the day after tomorrow will pass through Mogu County, Jiangshan is in Mogu County, after passing the Zhuma Valley, the terrain at the foot of Jiangshan is relatively flat, and now the road is difficult for cars and horses, so the convoy will pass at the foot of Jiangshan. ”

He Guanglie's brows frowned the further back he listened, he looked at He Linwan for a while, and just when He Linwan thought he was about to have a seizure, he heard him say in a not very good tone: "Although Gongsun Yang is a side branch of the Gongsun family, he is strict and loyal, and he received the great favor of the old Jin King when he was young. If that friend of yours had passed by Jiang Mountain, not only would he not have been safe and sound, but he would have been escorted by Gongsun Yang all the way. ”

He Linwan didn't have any joy on her face when she heard this, she thought for a while and asked, "Who is the general stationed near Eagle Valley?"

"Eagle Valley is the territory of Camp Wenden. He Guanglie frowned, and added, "More than half of the Wendeng camp is now in the hands of Pan Jingfeng. Pan Jingfeng, you should know, right?"

Pan Jingfeng and He Linwan naturally knew.

Four years ago, her second uncle, He Guangzong, married the Pan family soon after he returned, and her second uncle, He Xian, the son of He Guangzong, married Pan Jingfeng's eldest daughter, the second girl of the Pan family, last spring.

Pan Jingfeng is regarded as the old department of the Gongsun family, and he was picked up by the old general Gongsun, and it stands to reason that he should be a member of the Gongsun family, so when the old general Gongsun died and Gongsun Xian's whereabouts were unknown, he quickly gathered a large number of forces in the name of the Gongsun family.

However, in the past few years, Pan Jingfeng's attitude and position have been a little subtle.

After the five princes took over the Jimo camp, there were several large-scale anti-bandit operations, and once they also extended their hands to the jurisdiction of the Wendeng camp, whether it was a temptation or a provocation is hard to say, but Pan Jingfeng not only didn't say a word, but also silently helped the five princes sweep the tail in the back. The fifth prince thought that Pan Jingfeng was showing favor to himself and had the intention of taking refuge, so he set up a banquet to invite Pan Jingfeng, but Pan Jingfeng refused. After that, the five princes invited several times openly and secretly, but Pan Jingfeng didn't appreciate his face, but after that, Pan Jingfeng was very cooperative with the five princes in official business.

Not only is Pan Jingfeng's attitude towards the Five Princes incomprehensible, but his attitude towards Gongsun Xian is also very subtle. In the past few years when Gongsun Xian and He Guanglie were fighting with each other, Gongsun Xian wanted to unite with Pan Jingfeng several times to stumble on He Guanglie, but Pan Jingfeng had no intention of cooperating, and reprimanded Gongsun Xian several times. Not only that, the relationship between Pan Jingfeng and He Guanglie is not far or close, except for the normal human exchanges during the New Year's holidays, there is no intersection, and there is no intimacy between in-laws.

It seems that Pan Jingfeng is unwilling to be involved with any forces, unwilling to form a gang, only doing his own work diligently, and taking care of his subordinates very considerately. Most of the people in the barracks are upright people, and seeing Pan Jingfeng behaving like this, no one accused him of being ungrateful for crossing the river and demolishing bridges for Gongsun's family, but because of his reputation for clear rewards and punishments, there were many loyal, righteous, benevolent and brave people who were willing to serve under him.
