Chapter 156: The princess of the county said

Remember [Lewen] in a second. Alas, for you to read wonderfully.

"This kind of thing can't be hidden, let's tell the princess of the county!" Cheng Meizhu persuaded Lu Shiyu when she heard this, "lest the princess of the county don't know what to do, and secretly speculate, maybe she will become more and more worried." ”

Lu Shiyu nodded with a not very good-looking face, and when the guards went out to pass the word, Fang said to his deputy: "Do you remember that before we came, when we passed through this narrow valley, we also sent people to the top to watch?"

Cheng Meizhu said: "Of course." After all, this hellish place is so precipitous, our mounts can't be used in it at all, and if we throw some stones and torches on top of it, we have no power to fight back, so where can we not pay more attention?"

"At that time, there was nothing on the cliff, otherwise we would definitely be suspicious, even if we didn't immediately send troops to search around, we would send a team of soldiers to observe nearby, and if there was anything abnormal, we would report it with fireworks, so as not to cut off the back road. Lu Shiyu said in a deep voice, "If it is just a big pit on the official road, although the project cost of digging those dozen pits is not small, but gathering hundreds of people who are in the prime of life will not be impossible to complete within three or five days! This little mobilization of people and horses can still hide from us who were in a hurry to Yizhou City at that time." ”

"But. ”

"At this moment, how can the blockage of this narrow valley be completed by hundreds of people in such a few days?"

"Is it Meng Jiaqian? Ni Jidao said that although they have the Western Xinjiang Army in their hands and have a large number of men, they definitely do not have such courage. It is also Meng Jiaqian, although he was defeated by the king of Mizhen County before, he brought 3,000 elite horsemen to the western frontier to have such manpower. Cheng Meizhu frowned and said, "This scale must be almost a nest dispatch, not a small fight...... It seems that the Meng clan is determined to eradicate the princess of the county?"

Lu Shiyu said expressionlessly: "It's not to eradicate the princess of the county, but to cut off the support of the three families of Nanfeng County and the Luo family of Jiangnan to the county king!"

Rong Sleeping Crane is indeed talented in his own right, and his background on Tortoiseshell Island has also accumulated a lot of money.

But this money is more than enough for him to squander himself, and if he wants to participate in the competition for a big position, it will be overstretched.

So far, the confidence of those who have confidence in him financially does not come from himself, but from his wife Sheng Weiqiao!

This world-famous rich girl is the one who everyone agrees that what is lacking in sleeping cranes is only the root of time!

Cheng Meizhu's eyes flashed, she glanced at the handsome tent where there were only two people, took a step forward, and said in a low voice: "General, what ...... What are we going to do?"

"......" Lu Shiyu pondered for a while and said, "General Huaihua asked us to come to Western Xinjiang, clearly saying that he wanted to help the king of Mizhen County. In this case, we must always try our best to protect the princess of the county. ”

Cheng Meizhu said tentatively: "But if the enemy is really cunning, and we are not familiar with the place, and the princess of the county has gone wrong, ......?"

"We are the Northern Xinjiang Army, or General Huaihua personally selected to support the Western Xinjiang. Lu Shiyu shook his head and said, "How can you not even protect a princess of a county?

"But Meng Jiaqian is also led by the Northern Xinjiang Army, although the number is not as good as ours, but it has come to Western Xinjiang many days earlier than us. Cheng Meizhu lowered her eyes and said, "Meng Jiaqian also gathered a few earth snakes from Ni Jidao, the so-called time and place are favorable, and there are no people and us at this time, even if it is the time of day, this day is cold and frozen......"

Lu Shiyu frowned for a while, and said categorically: "Even so, you can't lose General Huaihua's face after all!"

Seeing what Cheng Meizhu was going to say, he waved his hand and said in a low voice, "Lijie, I know that your heart is towards the prince, but after all, General Huaihua is the princess's brother-in-law, and he actually admires and loves the nephew of King Mizhen County, who is both talented and beautiful." ”

Although he and Cheng Meizhu have only gotten close in the past two years, they have a very good personal relationship because of the talks.

After groaning at this moment, he said a few more words, "Although General Huaihua has not yet decided who to choose between the prince and the king of Mizhen County, we can't let his nephew and daughter-in-law have an accident before the general gives him a definite order, right?"

"As long as the king of Mizhen County is good, how many nephews and daughters-in-law does General Huaihua want?" Cheng Meizhu smiled slyly and said, "I heard that General Huaihua has a beloved daughter under his knees, with outstanding appearance, and she was trained by Mrs. Qin, such a beautiful lady, then she is worthy of the king of the county!

Lu Shiyu actually thought so in his heart, although he didn't see Zhao Taocheng, but out of gratitude and reverence for Zhao Shi, of course, he had a preconceived idea that Zhao Taocheng was good at everything, and the key was to sleep with the Crane Gate.

And Sheng Weiqiao's words, although the contact in the past two days made him feel that this princess of the county was not as bad as the rumored bad service and willful pampering, but he was not as good as Zhao Taocheng!

But at this moment, he still frowned: "This is not what we should say!"

Cheng Meizhu immediately bowed her head and pleaded guilty: "It's the last general Meng Lang!"

"And you don't have to forget, now the people who are sending people to block the way home, since eighty percent of them are the Meng family's doing, then if we don't do our best to protect the princess of the county in the future, once the princess of the county has a mistake, do you think the Meng family will not tell the Nanfeng County side?" Lu Shiyu vetoed Cheng Meizhu's proposal, in fact, it was not all unmoved, and there were also such considerations, "This princess of the county is well-known for being favored in her mother's family! ”

"If the Sheng family knows what we have done, tells the county king, and takes us for a small crime, the key is that it will inevitably involve General Huaihua!"

"When the time comes, if the King of Mizhen County is unwilling or unable to avenge the princess of the county according to the idea of Nanfeng County, do you think those families will give up?!"

"With their financial resources...... The consequences can be imagined!"

Lu Shiyu exhaled, "So don't make up your mind, let's do things seriously!"

Cheng Meizhu seemed to have some regret, but after hesitating, she still nodded: "The last general will obey the order!"

…… Half an hour later, when she returned to the camp where she lived, Cheng Meizhu finished freshening up under the service of the guards, then waved away and fell asleep alone.

Not long after he lay down, he suddenly noticed someone walking in silently, and only stopped when he reached his seat three steps outside the tent, and coughed lightly.

"Is it you?" Cheng Meizhu squinted, and after identifying the silhouette of the person through the gap in the tent, he let go of the short knife under the pillow, sat up in his cloak, and whispered, "Why did you come here suddenly?"

Outside the tent, Gongsun Xi's face was half hidden in the shadows, and he couldn't see clearly, only a pair of eyes were bright as burning, and he looked at Cheng Meizhu with no expression, and said lightly: "The princess of the county is very worried about the blockage of the narrow valley, let me ask you, who blocked the narrow valley?"

"Listening to this tone, the princess of the county suspects what Lu Shiyu did?" Cheng Meizhu chuckled and said, "No." Because I had a good relationship with him, and I was inseparable all the way, I can be sure that he never gave such an order. Not to mention the number of soldiers who were able to do such a thing never left the team. What's more, this place is not far from Yizhou City, if something really goes wrong, it will be a big deal for the county princess to take the county princess back to Yizhou City! Even if Yizhou City looks at the situation now, but judging from the fact that the county king let our five thousand elite horsemen escort the county princess out of the western frontier, instead of leaving us as reinforcements, it is obvious that the county king has his own dependence!"

He paused here and said meaningfully, "Maybe this depends on the last resort, and he is unwilling to show people, but there must be a reason for the calm and relaxed spirit of the King of Mizhen!"

"Second, the princess of the county was personally entrusted to Lu Shiyu by the county king, and Lu Shiyu also promised that the princess of the county and Mrs. Feng would be sent to Chang'an safely!

"And the king of the county ...... Will you forgive General Huaihua and Lu Shiyu because there is no evidence?"

"General Huaihua has always paid attention to peace, and he is best at turning enemies into friends, and he understands these truths better than anyone else. Yes, ninety percent of this matter has nothing to do with Lu Shiyu. ”

"That's Meng Jiaqian?" Gongsun Xi said "um" and said, "There are two suspicions of the princess of the county, one is Lu Shiyu and the other is Meng Jiaqian. Cheng Meizhu said: "That's exactly why I talked to Lu Shiyu, and I also think that Meng Jiaqian did it." ”

In this way, Meng's collusion with Ruru seems to be true. Gongsun Xi snorted coldly, "Otherwise, how could he pinch the time so accurately?"

"Anyway, as long as the king wins this game, the Meng family is a traitor, and it doesn't matter if they really did it or not. Cheng Meizhu said indifferently, "The problem now is that the narrow valley is too seriously blocked, and the cleaning is slow, if you stay here for ten days and a half months, the road can be opened, I'm afraid that the soldiers from Yizhou will come to the city, and Ruru will divide the troops after receiving the news." ”

"That would be too dangerous, and it won't work. Gongsun Xi groaned, "Are there any other roads around here?"

Cheng Meizhu said: "Didn't the guards who passed the message tell you? Fang just asked people to go out to find Li Shu nearby, and they all said that there is such a road within a hundred miles, otherwise they will have to go around for more than a hundred miles." We all have leg strength, and the hundred-eight-mile road was originally nothing, but the problem is that looking at the situation of this narrow valley, it is to force us to take a detour. If we still follow the pace calculated by the people behind the scenes...... Aren't you going to be led by the nose all the time?"

This is not only a loss of face, but also an easy to fall into other people's serial traps, and even in the end, I don't even know how I died.

Gongsun Xi understood this truth, pondered for a moment, and said: "The princess of the county said that this narrow valley is so steep, and it is the only way to go to Yizhou, and there is no secret path nearby. After all, no one else should go, and those who do shady business should also go. So if the two generals can't find a suitable guide, it's better to look at the rich families nearby. ”

Cheng Meizhu was stunned, and said suspiciously: "Is this really what the princess of the county said?"

When the words came out, I suddenly felt that something was wrong, and I was busy haha vaguely, "It's really embarrassing to let the princess of the county help make suggestions while she is pregnant!"

He muttered in his heart: Didn't Master Hou say that his niece in this life was naΓ―ve and delicate, and she didn't know anything about the world?

But when I thought of Sheng Weiqiao's grandfather, Mrs. Sheng, I was relieved, as the saying goes, the tiger girl, the granddaughter of the old man Sheng, how could she really know nothing?

He was worried that Gongsun Xi would tell Sheng Weiqiao what he said unconsciously, annoying this nobleman, and didn't want Gongsun Xi to continue without any expression: "The princess of the county also said that the three families of Nanfeng County are good at business, although they have never done anything like a traitor, but they have long heard of the smugglers, and eighty percent of the people behind the scenes also take this into account. Therefore, when Ming'er asks the wealthy families nearby, you also need to pay attention not to find a way to be anxious, and to be calculating!"

He also said, "The princess of the county also said that although she is pregnant now, after all, her days are still shallow, and she also feels that her body and bones are still strong, so it is really not good, and it is okay to abandon the car and change horses." ”

"......" Cheng Meizhu nodded a little speechlessly, "The words of the princess of the county, I will tell Lu Shiyu tomorrow." ”

Where is this naΓ―ve and delicate, ignorant of the world, this is simply Lan Xinhui's quality, hard-working and hard-working!

Cheng Meizhu was just slandering, and Gongsun Xi, who was the messenger, was depressed, the princess of this county looked more and more capable and sophisticated, if she went on like this, wouldn't she be more and more reduced to a pure thug? !

"This can't be done!" When Gongsun Xi left Cheng Meizhu's tent, he thought angrily, "It was all because I didn't have anything to do before, and when I went back to Chang'an, I saw how I cleaned up Meng Guiyu's white-eyed wolf who would take revenge!!"

When he was secretly working hard here, in the tent specially prepared for Sheng Weiqiao's aunt and nephew, the candle flame had been extinguished, but the sound of the bedding was still quiet.

The two nephews listened quietly to each other's tossing and turning.

After a long time, Sheng Weiqiao said in a low voice: "Auntie, I always feel that something is not right!"

"......" Xuan Yu Feng didn't say anything for a while, and only said after a while, "It's wrong again, it's getting late, let's talk about it tomorrow!"

Sheng Weiqiao sighed lowly: "Okay!"

When she forced herself to sleep, it was not too far from the camp here, and Meng Jiaqian's whole body was trembling nervously!
