Xu Wenbo immediately interrupted Zhou Bo's words and said, "Zhou Bo, since it was a misunderstanding this time, this matter is over." Everyone dispersed. ”

Zhou Bo was waiting for Xu Wenbo's words, and he was immediately ready to open his mouth to give Xu Wenbo a fatal blow.

But at this moment, a small school hurriedly ran in from outside the gate of the West District, and reported: "My lord, Zhai Xuanfu brought people to fetch grain and grass, and is now waiting in the front yard." ”

When Zhou Bo heard this, he was overjoyed, it was really destiny to help, and now that Zhai Xianggong has appeared, he is very likely to completely knock Xu Wenbo down at one time. Immediately, he immediately said to Xu Wenbo: "Xu Xianggong, if you don't give an explanation to the lowly position in this matter now, the lowly position will never stop." Since Zhai Xianggong has arrived in person, it is better to ask Zhai Xianggong to be a judge. ”

Immediately, he immediately said to Xu Wenbo: "Xu Xianggong, if you don't give an explanation to the lowly position in this matter now, the lowly position will never stop." Since Zhai Xianggong has arrived in person, it is better to ask Zhai Xianggong to be a judge. ”

Of course, Xu Wenbo knew Zhou Bo's plans, after all, Zhou Bo was Zhai Xuan's person, and if he let Zhai Xuan get involved in this matter, he was afraid that he would cause more trouble. But now in front of so many people, he couldn't find an excuse to stop Zhou Bo, and suddenly he had a difficult situation to ride a tiger.

Seeing that Xu Wenbo was still hesitating, Zhou Bo snorted coldly, and didn't care about anything else, turned around and walked out, intending to go to see Shang Zhai Xuan first.

Xu Wenbo knew that this matter was unavoidable, so he could only grit his teeth and scold Zhou Bo half to death in his heart. He has prepared for the worst, and of course he must not let himself fall into this worst plan, and he will naturally lose the car to protect the commander when necessary. He beckoned the others to disperse first. Let Chen Xianzhi and Gao Xue follow Zhou Bo to the front yard to see Zhai Xuan first. I deliberately slowed down a step.

Wait until most of them have dispersed. He walked up to Wang Gui and Yang Xiaowu, lowered his voice and explained to them: "Wait a minute, no matter what name you ask, you have to take care of your mouth, as long as I'm okay, you will naturally be fine." Remember?"

Wang Gui and Yang Xiaowu nodded yes again and again.

Then, Xu Wenbo followed quickly and came to the front yard with Zhou Bo.

In the lobby of the front yard, Zhai Xuan and several of his subordinates were sitting there. The face doesn't look good. He had sent someone to urge the grain and grass to be sent to Xingou a few days ago, but there was no movement so far, so he had to go to the door to ask for food in person.

Zhou Bo, Chen Xianzhi, and Gao Xue walked into the lobby first. Zhai Xuan glanced at Zhou Bo, who was only wearing pajamas, and couldn't help but be strange, and immediately asked, "Zhou Xunwu, why are you dressed like this, what kind of body are you doing?"

Zhou Bo immediately knocked down in front of Zhai Xuan, with a look of humiliation on his face, and said: "Zhai Xianggong is in charge of his subordinates, and he is being framed for stealing military rations. was dragged out of the wing room in front of everyone, and he was wronged. ”

"Stealing military rations? Is there any evidence?" Hearing this, Zhai Xuan was so angry that he suddenly stood up from his chair and almost slapped it on the table. Although he doesn't know Zhou Bo, he knows Dong Hao very well, since Dong Hao values Zhou Bo very much, then Zhou Bo's character is naturally trustworthy.

What's more, he is dozens of years old, and he still has the ability to analyze the situation. Zhou Bo is a defeated soldier in Xiangyang Mansion, and he finally survived his life and was promoted, not long ago, the Guanghua Military Festival Envoy and the Junzhou Observation Envoy also thanked him and gave him a hundred taels of softness, and he is not without money, what reason is there to steal military rations?

His first reaction was that Li Hui instructed Gao Xue and Chen Xianzhi to deliberately frame him, so his anger skyrocketed. After saying what he said just now, he also subconsciously glared at Chen Xianzhi and Gao Xue.

Gao Xue knew that Zhai Xuan had misunderstood, so he hurriedly explained what happened this morning. As soon as he finished explaining, Xu Wenbo walked in with Wang Gui and Yang Xiaowu.

"Xu Dadu, I'm afraid you're going to give me an explanation?" Zhai Xuan glared at Xu Wenbo angrily, and when he spoke, his fat chin was turned several times because of his strong tone.

"This is to ask Zhai Xianggong to be tolerant, today's incident is purely a misunderstanding, Wang Gui and Yang Xiaowu were drunk because of drinking last night, so when they inspected the granary this morning, they found that the granary was missing a stack of grain and grass, and they did something wrong in a hurry. I will deal with this matter severely, and give Zhou Xunwu justice. Xu Wenbo's face was embarrassed, and he replied to Zhai Xuan. Although he is the capital of Xiying, he is not as big as Zhai Xuan in terms of grade and prestige, although his father is an observer, but in the final analysis, he is far inferior to Zhai Xuan, so he does not dare to disobey this big man.

"Drunk and mistaken? Then why didn't Wang Gui and Yang Xiaowu say that it was the senior deputy envoy or the deputy envoy Chen who stole the grain, but they said that it was Zhou Xunwu? Have you forgotten that Zhou Xunwu was jointly promoted by me and your father Xu Guanxiang?" Zhai Xuan's anger is still not weakened, what he hates most is that others treat him as a fool, this matter is so suspicious, how can it be solved by a misunderstanding?

Zhou Bo heard that Zhai Xuan's words were not only for Xu Wenbo, but also for everyone present and himself. Zhai Xuan just wants to let others know that Zhou Bo is covered by him, which can play a role in attracting people, and secondly, it can also force Zhou Bo and Li Hui to oppose each other.

Xu Wenbo was shocked by Zhai Xuan's momentum, and he could see that Zhai Xuan would definitely not give up easily today, which was also his retribution for not repairing his relationship with him some time ago. He always thought that he was the person between Li Hui and Zhai Xuan, and he didn't want to offend either side, and at the same time wanted to make benefits from both sides. It's okay now, Zhai Xuan is in trouble, who can he find to support him?

He didn't know how to explain for a while, so he immediately turned around and yelled at Wang Gui: "You thief, you recruited me carefully, what the hell is going on?"

Wang Gui was stunned, and he didn't know how to answer for a long time.

On the side, Yang Xiaowu finally mustered up the courage and insisted on saying: "Master Hui, the two of them were really drunk yesterday and don't remember anything, when they checked the grain and grass this morning, it was Wang Gui who suddenly shouted that Zhou Shaodu was in charge of stealing grain, and Xiaodi really didn't know." Later, later, the small bottom guessed. It may be that Wang Gui dreamed after getting drunk last night. mistakenly thought it was Zhou Xunwu's so-called. So"

When Wang Gui first heard Yang Xiaowu's first half of the sentence, he thought that this kid was going to betray himself, and he was shocked and angry in his heart. But fortunately, after listening to the second half of the sentence, I realized that Yang Xiaowu was making excuses to lie. Immediately, he nodded again and again, knelt down, and cried while slapping his face: "It's Xiao Di who is wrong, Xiao Di had a strange dream last night, and he shouted and screamed before he figured things out." Xiao Di confessed his guilt and begged the husband to spare his life. ”

Zhou Bo snorted coldly, just now the two of them said in unison that they lied to them to drink last night, and now it has become Wang Gui's dream and misunderstanding. He was about to open his mouth to refute Wang Gui's words, but at this moment, Xu Wenbo Xian took the lead, stepped forward and slapped Wang Gui in the face, and reprimanded: "When you are on duty in the camp, you dare to drink?

At this time, Gao Xue and Chen Xianzhi also spoke. They first taught Wang Gui a lesson from Xu Wenbo's standpoint, and then turned to Zhai Xuan to intercede. If Zhai Xuan doesn't come today. Naturally, they won't help Wang Gui or Xu Wenbo get ahead, no matter how Zhou Bo makes trouble at that time. But now that Zhai Xuan is here, and it is clear that he wants to support Zhou Bo, the two of them representing Li Hui's interests, of course, they can't let Zhai Xuan take the opportunity to help Zhou Bo take the position, so they hope to make the big thing small.

Zhou Bo was angry, he didn't want to just settle the matter, and immediately said to Zhai Xuan: "Zhai Xianggong Mingjian, there are still many flaws in this matter, it is clear that Wang Gui and Yang Xiaowu framed him, and he confessed and shirked it. ”

Zhai Xuan saw the situation in front of him clearly, he also felt that he had given Zhou Bo enough face, and he couldn't offend a series of people for Zhou Bo, and Xu Wenbo's father Xu Yuanzhi was an old acquaintance, and he still expected Xu Yuanzhi's support in Ezhou City. So he waved his hand, stopped Zhou Bo's words, and said: "In this case, Wang Gui framed Zhou Xunwu out of nothing, and he should be dismissed and asked, as for Yang Xiaowu, he just doesn't know the truth, so let's just give up." ”

Xu Wenbo finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Xiang Zhai handled it impartially, and it was very proper. ”

Zhou Bo snorted coldly, he knew that Zhai Xuan still had some concerns in his heart, so he deliberately stepped forward, lowered his voice and said in Zhai Xuan's ear: "If Xiying is handed over to the subordinates to take care of, they will definitely swear allegiance to Zhai Xianggong to the death." ”

This sentence was said quickly and quietly, and no one else heard it, only seeing Zhou Bo and Zhai Xianggong whispering. However, these people's official positions are not as good as Zhai Xuan's, not to mention that Zhai Xuan publicly stated that Zhou Bo was his person before, and no one dared to say anything at this time.

Xu Wenbo can only hate in his heart, this week Bo is really unforgiving! If this matter passes today, next time he will definitely eradicate this thorn in his side in one fell swoop!

Zhai Xuan's face changed slightly, although he was a little annoyed by Zhou Bo's bold proposal, no matter how much the affairs of the Xiying capital are in charge, it will not be your turn to be a little training martial artist, why should you negotiate terms with me? However, he took a deep breath and did not reveal the emotions in his heart. He found that when Zhou Bo spoke, there was a strong divine light in his eyes, which was a kind of confidence and an ambition, which was extremely similar to when he was young.

Of course, he couldn't trust the other party rashly just with Zhou Bo's eyes. The main thing is that he also sees a kind of crisis and hope in this look, the two are completely coexisting, and the key is how to understand it.

Although Zhou Bo is only an eight-rank junior military attaché, Zhai Xuan originally recommended Zhou Bo for the purpose of training, and at this time, Zhou Bo said that he would replace Xu Wenbo in Xiying, if he did not agree, he was afraid that Zhou Bo would lose confidence in himself. This is the crisis in Zhou Bo's eyes.

Zhai Xuan naturally didn't care whether he had confidence in Zhou Bo, a dispensable chess piece, but it was precisely because Zhou Bo's words brought him hope that he had to hesitate. Once Zhou Bo became the governor of Xiying, then he finally broke through the dilemma of zero logistics force in Ezhou City, and you must know that the logistics supply of Ezhou and even the southwest road of Beijing is all under the control of Li Hui.

Zhai Xuan is an ambitious person, will he sit idly by now that he has the opportunity to give it a go?

Zhou Bo waited for a while, and seeing that Zhai Xuan was not angry at what he had just said, he knew that Zhai Xuan had already understood what he meant. Although he knew that Zhai Xuan was still thinking about it, he had to take advantage of this tone to force Zhai Xuan to stand on his side. So, he turned around again and glanced at Xu Wenbo, Yang Xiaowu and Wang Gui.

"Wang Gui, are you sure you were just drunk last night, so you misunderstood Pontus?" he asked.

Wang Gui was already in a cold sweat, he already felt that Zhou Bo was going to play tricks, but he didn't know what tricks he was going to play. However, in the face of each other's questions, you can't help but answer. So he nodded, gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, yes, Xiao Di should be damned, it was Xiao Di who misunderstood Lord Zhou Duguan." ”

"Okay, Deputy Envoy Chen, please do me another favor, please send someone to the granary in the western district to inspect the No. D granary, and I can assure you that the No. D granary is now short of twenty-five stone of military rations. Zhou Bo said coldly. Wang Gui and Yang Xiaowu stole grain and grass from the No. Mao granary yesterday, while they took 25 stone of military rations from the No. D granary next door to fill it.

Everyone present was taken aback, why is there a shortage of grain in the No. D granary?

Wang Gui and Yang Xiaowu looked at each other in a panic, if they had misremembered the grain and grass last night, they wouldn't have remembered both of them wrong! What the hell is going on? What the hell is Zhou Bo doing?

Chen Xianzhi was very puzzled and asked, "Zhou Duguan, how do you know that the No. D granary is short of grain?"

Zhou Bo smiled coldly, deliberately walked to Wang Gui, who was still kneeling on the ground, stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and then said, "Actually, this matter is a conspiracy. Last night, Wang Gui and Yang Xiaowu excused themselves to be filial piety, and then asked to go down to Xifeng Tower to drink, which the guys in Xifeng Building can testify. The two of them took advantage of the persuasion to drink, deliberately tricked him into getting drunk, and then helped him back to the side room. ”

Wang Gui's whole body was already trembling, and he hurriedly quibbled: "Zhou Duguan dared to cheat yesterday, did you remember it when you were drunk?"

Zhou Bo then told all the fifteen and ten about the process of Wang Gui and Yang Xiaowu's drinking and cheating, Wang Gui was immediately stunned, he never expected Zhou Bo to hide it so deeply.

"You think I'm drunk, but I'm not drunk at all. After you helped me back to the wing that night, I slipped out quietly and followed you all the time. Zhou Bo continued, he described everything he saw last night in detail, even the appearance of those few Yong Yong, the size of the cart that stole grain and grass, he explained very carefully.

Finally, he looked at Deputy Envoy Chen and added: "The reason why Zai Xia knows that the Ding granary is less than twenty-five stones of grain and grass is because after the inferior Wang Gui and them left, they took twenty-five stones of grain and grass from this grain and grass and returned it to the Mao number of grain and grass. The next person moved so much grain and grass, but he was really tired!"

As soon as he spoke, there was an exclamation in the front hall, it turned out that Wang Gui was a thief shouting to catch a thief!

However, after listening to the words, Xu Wenbo immediately shouted: "Zhou Bo, since you saw them stealing last night, why didn't you report it at that time, but pretended to tear down the east wall and make up the west wall, what are your intentions?" ”

His words were very lethal, and immediately made everyone think that Zhou Bo deliberately played a trick to harm Wang Gui and Yang Xiaowu.

Zhou Bo was not in a hurry, smiled indifferently, and said: "Because of the humble position, Wang Gui and Yang Xiaowu are by no means trying to frame the real culprit of the humble position, but are just instructed by others. Therefore, the lowly general will plan to bring out the real culprit behind the scenes!" )
