"Bang" King Lu's own soldiers wore armor to inspect, armor and weapons collided, making a clanging sound, and in the garden, King Lu walked in the garden.
King Lu entered the garden, at this time the clouds were dark and the sky was low, and he heard a sound of the piano from a distance, King Lu stopped and listened, and Gonggong Liao accompanied him, bowed down and said: "This is the sound of Sun Cairen's piano, is the prince going to take a rest?"
"No!" King Lu looked gloomy, approaching the pool, the water was green, and a wave of subtle ripples rose with the fish, or the breeze blew.
The lotus has been a little yellow, and there are a lot of lotus seeds, and King Lu has arrived at the pavilion in the lake along the corridor, and a cool wind has hit him, and his clothes are blowing.
"The mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings, I feel uneasy, Mr. Xie has only been away for a few days, but last night for some reason, I suddenly had a dream. "King Lu can always let go of his mind in front of this person.
"Lord, what dream makes you uneasy?" Father-in-law Liao asked in surprise, King Lu frowned: "The dream is not a nightmare, on the contrary, I dreamed that Mr. Xie came back and traveled with me, and I was very happy for a while, but when I woke up, he played the piano for me, and I didn't realize it at the time. ”
"Hey, I don't know when Mr. Xie will come back, and there is no correspondence these days, so I'm uneasy. King Lu sighed.
Listening to King Lu's sigh, Gonggong Liao couldn't help but feel a little jealous, now his influence on Xie Chengdong was a little too great, thinking in his heart, he persuaded in his mouth: "Lord Wang, Mr. Xie has a brilliant plan, another martial arts, and the five hundred cavalry sent by the prince, just go back to the sect, forgive me for nothing." ”
Before Father-in-law Liao's words fell, a Taoist official hurriedly came not far away.
"Lord Wang, there is an urgent report. The Taoist came in a hurry, listening to this voice, King Lu was startled, and he had an uneasy feeling: "Present the news." ”
The Taoist hurriedly handed over the information and stood with his hands down, and King Lu couldn't wait to look through it after taking it.
"What? Pei Ziyun united to pray for the Xuanmen ambush, five hundred cavalry were killed, and Mr. Xie Chengdong was killed in battle?" For a while, King Lu's head was slightly dizzy, and his body swayed, and Gonggong Liao saw that it was not good, so he hurriedly sat on the stone pier on the pavilion, and asked the Taoist official with a cold face: "Is this matter clear?" Is it a misreport, a misreport?"
"Lord Wang, I have verified it three times, otherwise I wouldn't dare to report it. The Taoist replied with a trembling body, King Lu only felt a dullness in his heart, his face was red and blue, and he suddenly gritted his teeth: "What you said is unbelievable, you don't believe it, you pray that Xuanmen has always supported you, and you didn't give up when you were in the most danger, why did you suddenly betray it now? and killed the most proud disciple in the sect?"
When King Lu said this, Huo stood up, paced back and forth in the pavilion in anger, and roared: "Someone!"
"Slave maid...... In!" Father-in-law Liao immediately responded.
"You lead someone to immediately take down the people of the Qixuanmen in our mansion, and find out about this matter. ”
"Yes!"
The Taoist official listened and hurriedly said, "Lord Wang, the Daoists of the Xuanmen Sect left one after another on the second day after Mr. Xie left. ”
"What, it's hateful! Pray for Xuanmen!" King Lu was even more furious, pulled out his sword and slashed at the pillar: "It's really killable, it's really killable." ”
"Passing on my order, the Taoist temple of Xuanmen in the two states of Qin and Jin was immediately copied. ”
"Yes!"
Listening to the response, King Lu took a heavy breath, woke up from his anger, suddenly felt that his body was weak, and sat down again, and only after a long time did he die gloomily: "Quick check, where is Pei Ziyun." ”
Lixian Station
It rained all night, I don't know how many leaves fell, the ground was covered with dead leaves, the outside of this post station was inconspicuous, in fact, the interior decoration had a unique style, and the door had a tolerance to knock on the door: "Uncle, it's going to be early, the weather is sunny today, and you have to hurry!"
He didn't dare to offend Zhongqinbo, he spoke softly, he didn't need to call in the past, he shouted occasionally, there must be movement inside, but today he doesn't know what's going on, but there is no sound.
"Hey, there's no movement inside?" the wind blew, and a stream of blood squeezed into the nose of the tolerance, which has been handling cases all year round, and his heart chuckled, his face changed greatly, and he reached out and pushed the door.
The door was immediately pushed open, only to see that the window inside was closed, a little dark, not far from the door, Zhong Qinbo lay motionless, his body was stiff, and a piece of blood flowed from his mouth and nose.
"Oh no, something big is wrong. His eyes were so frightened that he was drenched in a cold sweat, and when he woke up, he exclaimed, and all the people in the courtyard were alarmed.
The escorted eunuch Liu, who was about fifty years old, was getting up, listening to the voice, his face changed, he jumped up, and ran out barefoot.
noon
Several servants were inspecting the scene of the killing, as well as the soldiers and catchers who had arrived, and in an instant, the post station became lively.
The county magistrate and the escorted eunuch Liu had a pale face and watched silently, and the officials who happened to pass by the same post station, wearing four-grade official uniforms, also stood silently outside the door.
"Father-in-law, Zhong Qinbo is an important minister of the imperial court, although he was defeated and locked into Beijing, but the official body is still there, and he does not carry much gold and silver, but he is killed here, I really can't think about it. ”
"You know, thieves are all seeking money, how dare they kill ministers, and even if it is King Lu, he will not attack a prisoner. The county order said, saliva bitter, even if this matter has nothing to do with him, but if something happens in his own county, a punishment is inevitable, and the serious one must be dismissed.
This is considered a curse from heaven.
Hearing this, the eunuch swallowed bitterly, his own disaster was even greater, and he looked at the head catcher and asked coldly: "But have you found it out?"
These people glanced at each other, exchanged a few words in a whisper, and only then did one of them step forward and say: "Father-in-law Liu, they have all found out clearly, Zhong Qinbo slapped his palm on the door of his head, and the top bone of his head was concave, and even his brain was blown up, and he was killed on the spot." ”
As he spoke, he timidly looked at Eunuch Liu and the county order, and said: "But there is still wine and cooked food on the table, I have already asked, this is not a post station supply, it was brought from outside, depending on the situation, Zhongqinbo has used wine and food, presumably an acquaintance." ”
"And looking at the position of the opposite person, this person is not low. ”
Everyone understands this, Zhongqinbo's status is precious, even if he is an acquaintance, the position he sits in is very delicate, and now he has wine and food, it is obvious that this person's status is not low.
"That's it, the most frightening thing is not the method of killing, the uncle did not shout until he died, there are military guards outside the courtyard, although it rains, but an ordinary person does not say that he climbs over the wall, even if he is close to the yard, he can detect it. ”
"The only possibility is that this person knows witchcraft, is more skilled in martial arts, and is ordered to have an enmity with Zhongqinbo, so that we can be close at hand without realizing it. ”
Listening to the conclusion of the tolerance, Eunuch Liu's face was gloomy all of a sudden, and the county commander was also suspicious in his heart, after a long time, Eunuch Liu's body shuddered, and asked the Taoist official who followed: "Where is Pei Zhenjun's car?"
The Taoist official hesitated a little and responded: "The lower official will check immediately." ”
Saying this, he immediately turned around and left, and after a while, he entered the house and said: "Pei Zhenjun has a seat and arrives at the Liushui Wharf in this county, which is ten miles away. ”
Hearing this, the faces of the people present changed, and Eunuch Liu was even more pale, gritting his teeth, and the county commander thought: "Do you really dare to risk the world's disapproval and not take the court in your eyes?"
Thinking in his heart, he turned to the fourth-grade official and bowed: "Master Ji, you are passing by, you shouldn't be disturbed, it's just that our grade is low......"
These four officials are involved in politics, look like they are in their fifties, called Ji Ming, smart since childhood, diligent and studious, and their career in their lives is not satisfactory, at the age of thirty-seven, they began to move, and then joined Xu Jun, they dare to express their opinions in case of trouble, do not avoid the powerful, and are appreciated by the emperor, but this person loves and hates clearly, and does not pretend to be sexual, so that even friends are declared to break up, and the official will not be able to continue to participate in politics, and he cannot be promoted.
Ji Ming had heard the rumors a long time ago, so he had doubts, and he hated the Taoist even more, this was not his errand, but his face changed: "Come on, let's go and see Zhenjun together." ”
dock
The autumn water of the river is turbulent, and in the autumn afternoon, it is still a little hot, Pei Ziyun leaned on the railing in the shade of the boat, on one side of the table, a watermelon that had just been fished out of the water was placed on the table, and the servant cut it into more than a dozen pieces with a knife.
Pei Ziyun looked into the distance, holding a cold watermelon in his hand, very satisfied, Ren Wei also took a piece on the side, and said with a smile: "Lord, the temperature on the island is warmer than the land, so there is also this autumn melon, this late autumn season is also a rare thing, so I chose to send it, but it is antipyretic." ”
Pei Ziyun used two pieces before smiling: "What's going on on the island?"
"The people on the island live and work in peace and contentment, and some people have been relocated, and more than 800 households have been recorded, and 3,000 acres of new fields have been opened, and now the paddy fields are 6,000 acres, and the slope fields are 2,500 acres. ”
"The salt pans are more than enough to satisfy the island, and a small amount is sold on ships. ”
"With the armistice in the south and the gradual resumption of trade, most of the people who go to sea now stop at Liujin Island to replenish their lives are at least twice as prosperous as before. ”
Listening to Ren Wei's words, Pei Ziyun nodded, Liujin Island has the current scale and the breath of a turtle, which can be inherited from generation to generation.
"Huh" Pei Ziyun exhaled, happy in his heart, and even more relaxed, Ren Wei smiled and said: "Lord, there is one more thing now, this is the letter that the little county lord forwarded to you." ”
Hearing this, Pei Ziyun's heart warmed and said, "Take a look." ”
Ren Wei held the letter with both hands, Pei Ziyun opened it, looked at it, and saw that there were not many words on the letter, just lovesick words, and saw that the end was a music score, Pei Ziyun read it carefully, his fingers played, and the sound of the piano flashed in his heart.
"It was created by the little county lord himself. Pei Ziyun exhaled, thinking about home, and even more about the beauty, and at this moment, a person hurriedly stepped forward.
"Zhenjun, Ji Ming, Gonggong Liu, the county magistrate of this county, came to meet and said that there is something important to discuss!" the man bowed and said.
When Pei Ziyun heard this, he couldn't help sneering, and put down the letter: "Someone, let me greet you." ”
