Chapter Twenty-Six: The Decision-Maker of the Whole
The boy was surprised and thought, just like the dinner he had tasted earlier.
Seasonings that can be found in the homes of mountain people are simple and scarce
That guy can make delicious food.
He lowered his eyelids and thought about it for a while, once the young man decided to go to the Northland, he didn't think about changing it!
As for the episode just now, it was not in his expectations.
The group of strangers who came to disturb him late at night was not easy for him.
Since the young man's heart said that the road ahead may not be peaceful, the determination to escort that guy to the Northland will be even stronger.
Besides, he has his own business, doesn't he?
The boy wandered around the room a few times, and finally felt uneasy.
This time I went to the Northland, and the time we got along was only one day, but because of the previous experience in the mountains, the boy did not feel very abrupt.
Yes, he thought about it, and finally decided to push the door and go out to have a look.
The young man asked himself to know Xiaoling's personality, he didn't like to be disturbed when he was doing things in the kitchen, but when he was in the mansion in the east of the city, he seemed to be busy, but he was also busy paying attention to every move in the Qingyin Pavilion.
Of course, it also includes the scope of Xiaoling's activities in Suzhou City, as well as the things he has done at various points in the city.
What is the function of the guard Ah Lai he sent, Ah Fu asked Yuan Bao to stay in Qingyin Pavilion to serve that guy, and there is another layer of meaning that naturally has to watch his actions.
The boy knew that although Xiaoling said that he was good at cooking. But there are also his weaknesses.
After he left, the young man found the people at the bottom of the mansion in the east of Suzhou City and questioned them one by one.
Especially the two who come in and out of Qingyin Pavilion frequently, Ah Dai and Yuanbao brothers and sisters. The details of getting along with Xiaoling have been asked by the teenager.
It was the first time that he had ever heard about those trivial things, and he had asked about it on his own initiative.
At that time, knowing that Xiaoling was saying goodbye, the young man's first reaction was annoyance, gritting his teeth and being angry, and then a faint sense of loss flooded into his heart and continued to linger.
Xiaoling just wanted to leave Suzhou. What's wrong with Qingyin Pavilion?!
The young man couldn't tell his intentions, he heard the people below talk about the details, when he lived in the Qingyin Pavilion and didn't leave. Xiaoling doesn't seem to like the fire
The boy didn't think much of it, and waited a few seconds before pushing open the door and walking to the kitchen.
The lights were on, and a figure could be seen busy in the kitchen.
The scene is seen in the eyes of the teenager. There were ripples in my heart. Unconsciously, there is a warm feeling of wanting to be close to that side.
There is an attraction in the mountain village, the rainy night, and the warm light, beckoning him to come closer
Thousands of miles away, in the southern city of Zealand, a group of people were sitting in the courtyard to discuss things.
This is the stronghold where Tianfang arranged the people of the Sea Country in the south of Xilan.
A quiet house was their residence in the city, and it was also the place where Tianfang would move south.
Tian Fang's whereabouts are uncertain, this time he went to the north, changed his itinerary in the middle, and temporarily decided to go south in Suzhou City.
Some of them knew the reason for the diversion, such as the person in charge of the current stronghold in the south of Zealand.
a day ago. So he ordered the house to be put in order, and the house was put in order. Waiting for the coming of their Lord.
Everything seemed to be going well, but the flying pigeon sent made the expressions of the people below become embarrassed.
They stopped in the study this morning, and spent most of the day, but they didn't expect it, and at noon there was new news.
One after another, none of them came with good news.
The letter didn't add up to many words: a shortcut in distress, a one-day delay, no reinforcements.
Tianfang's usual concise tone.
The head of Xilannan here, as mentioned earlier, is the person in charge here, and he is also one of Tianfang's right-hand men, after receiving the letter, he still feels not very relieved.
He gathered all the people scattered throughout the city and gathered them together in the small courtyard to take counsel.
When something happens, it's always the time when their gang arrives at their best, especially when the news about the Lord is not daring.
They didn't talk for long, and the final result was to take a shortcut to meet them in the direction of Tianfang and his men passing through the south of Zealand.
After waiting for so long, there has been more than one accident in Xilanan, and finally the backbone is coming, and with the person in charge, he encountered danger on the way here.
Of course, Tianfang's subordinates will not ignore it, and they will definitely send someone to hold the territory as stated in the letter.
Even if it's guarding in the dark, it's another thing to not expose it!
As they discussed, there was remorse in their words, and the theme was that it would have been better to send someone earlier.
Negligent negligence!
Tianfang said that the shortcut, a group of people don't even need to think much to understand which place it refers to.
It has not been a day or two since they arrived in the south of Zealand, and they have been familiar with the terrain of various parts of Zealand.
Looking at the area of South Zealand, from the waterway to the mountain road, there is no exception.
The people under Tianlet go are naturally the same, familiarize themselves with the environment as soon as possible, and the surrounding access is almost a homework they must do everywhere they go.
A group of people continued to discuss the warehouse that had an accident some time ago.
"News came from outside the city, and there was a new discovery in the area where the accident occurred near the river on the outskirts of the city."
didn't discuss a few words, a look of hesitation flashed on the face of one of the people in the seat, and then as if he had made up his mind, he said to the big guy in a deep voice.
The rest of the people who heard the news looked at each other, and suddenly guessed that there must be another article behind it.
This also means that before the Lord arrives in Zealandan, there is a new development in the most urgent task of his trip to Zealandan, the most important thing he wants to investigate.
At least when they met, they had something serious to talk to the Lord, and the group suddenly felt that the pressure was reduced a lot.
Their grateful eyes immediately fell on the face of the comrade who was in charge of investigating the fire in the warehouse.
The losses were concentrated in the two largest warehouses, where grain and cloth were hoarded. After the accident, the fire broke out and burned more than half of it.
When the subordinates do the investigation, the division of labor is very clear, and they do not interfere with each other's work.
The news will be summarized in the sky after it reaches the south of the West Lan, because the Lord is in control. Global Decision-Maker.
But then again, out of the camaraderie of colleagues, it's essential to mention the companions around you.
Everyone does things together, they don't look up and look down, and they will meet when they walk around the city.
It's a good thing to get some news before the Lord comes up, so that the big guys can have a bottom in their hearts and be well prepared.
"Can you tell us more about it?" One of the people in the room stared at him and pondered for a moment. His gaze fixed asked, "At least let's be more sure." "Have you found out the cause of the other party's arson?"
The one who spoke earlier immediately frowned and responded: "It's inconvenient to disclose the specifics." “
His tone changed. Slowed down a bit: "But the news spreads quickly." It's only been a day or two since the Lord came here. ”
"When the time comes," he paused, looking around at the crowd, "I will tell you the whole story, and let me keep it a secret for the time being!" ”
The night fog was vast, and a faint figure appeared on the mountain road, and several people faintly walked from the fog.
Tianfang walked in the middle of the line, and there were people in front and behind.
Behind him, some distance away, followed by the embarrassed ship boss.
They didn't think of it. However, Tianfang had some premonitions in advance, so he kept paying attention to the surrounding terrain in the dangerous road along the way.
Sure enough, at the moment of sudden change. took the group below to save their lives.
One of them was a little sluggish, and suffered a slight injury while climbing the cliff.
It is already a great luck in misfortune to be able to not leave anyone behind, and even drag the embarrassed ship boss ashore.
The team was more silent than any moment before departure.
The subordinates on the march each had their own thoughts, and if they hadn't followed the lord in the danger just now, they might not have had such good luck.
Counting the hours of delay, the shortcut to the dangerous road is considered to be a failure, which is a very helpless fact.
Tianfang's eyes swept over the misty mountain road ahead, just like the situation that he couldn't see clearly, and as the boat was scrapped in the river, suddenly some unpredictable puzzles gradually became clear.
At this moment, Tianfang believes in one thing, I'm afraid that before he arrives in Xilanan to inquire about the news, there will be new movements in front of him.
Or, just wait and the sun will rise.
Tianfang's mood fluctuated for a while, and the shadow of another person flashed in his heart, and an unpredictable smile appeared on the corner of his mouth
The town of Nanhua is separated by about a dozen miles of mountains by road.
Mo Yan wandered by the stream for a long time, and finally walked to the stream and immersed his hand in the water of the hot spring valley.
After a while, he straightened up, stood by the stream and stood with his hands in his hands and looked at the mountains and forests opposite.
A few days ago, the hidden guards haunted the hot spring valley, and since the empress set to temporarily camp here, Mo Yan has seen it several times intermittently.
However, today's new order from the empress, when the team was about to leave, the valley was extremely quiet.
I couldn't see the elusive guard at all.
Where did the other party go?
Mo Yan thought in his heart, rather than having no new movements, he was still more inclined to think that the person was assigned by Gongzi to do the task.
But what will be strange about the Nanhua town ahead?
Mo Yan couldn't figure it out, he knew that Gongzi's affairs were not something he could ask about, but he couldn't get rid of the worry about him in his heart.
Mo Yan always wondered if anything would happen on the way to the Northland.
Childe's physical condition, only he knows best, and Mo Yan has a sense of powerlessness.
The misty landscape in the hot spring valley is still shrouded in mist, and Wang Shi is scheduled to set off again in the afternoon.
Mo Yan's gaze looked fixedly at the carriage parked on the bank of the stream, and then landed halfway up the hill.
The last time the hidden guard came, he came from the direction of Nanhua Town, and after that, he lost his trace, and only Childe knew his whereabouts.
In this unpredictable game, the only one who knows and controls the whole situation is the person in the carriage.
Mo Yan remembered that the urgent letter he received this morning was still from the south of Zealand, he didn't know the content of the message, and secretly speculated that it must be inseparable from the affairs of the northland.
There is another news from the Martyrdom Pavilion, as the largest hidden force in Xilan, the Yuwen family stationed in the south of Xilan seems to be moving.
I heard that the little master of his family is still in Suzhou, which is the Suzhou City where the king has passed and not entered
The boy stood outside the kitchen and took a deep breath, trying to calm his mind.
Although he was still thinking about the people who passed by before, he didn't plan to reveal it in front of Xiaoling, so as not to worry that guy.
He looked up and saw the familiar thin figure busy by the stove.
Contrary to his suspicions, the clay stove in the kitchen was lit by an ember, so it was easy to start a fire, and it only took a few fiddling to add firewood to it.
In vain, he was still thinking about what to tell that guy after he entered the door!
The young man smiled bitterly, his eyes fell on the back facing him, and suddenly his eyes stared.
He scrutinized the guy's back, he was dressed in a dark robe, but he looked from the boy's position, and he could see his feet from his head.
The boy's heartbeat suddenly became faster, and he was silently thinking about it.
He remembered that when he first met in the mountains, he also regarded that guy as a little fool, and there was a misunderstanding for a while.
Looking at his back again at this moment, the young man was in a trance for a moment, and always felt an indescribable feeling.
There was a slight irritability in his heart, and he didn't understand the origin of this feeling.
However, it was not the first time he had similar thoughts, and he also had a lot of questions about Xiaoling's guy in his heart.
He knew that Xiaoling must have a secret, but he didn't know what his secret was
It was still raining outside, and I was very focused in the kitchen, when I suddenly turned around and saw a figure in the doorway, which startled me.
"Hey, young master, haven't you moved when you walk?" I stared at him and said depressedly, "You suddenly appeared, I don't know how scary this is!" ”
The boy listened, but did not answer, still staring at me steadily.
The sound of dry branches being burned by fire sounded in the hearth of the earthen stove, and only an oil lamp was left on in the kitchen.
The eyes of the tsundere boy really made me feel uncomfortable, and I thought about it, was I the same as when I met him in the mountains, so I was so focused on doing things that I didn't even notice that my face was stained with ashes?
Therefore, it would be strange for him to look at me.
I hurriedly raised my hand and wiped it a few times, but my hand was still clean and there was no problem. "What the hell are you looking at?" I asked him in surprise.
The young man pressed things on his mind, sighed, and slowly approached.
When he came to me, he was staring at me, and I was a little afraid to look at him.
"Xiaoling, who did you learn cooking from when you were at home?"
The young man was a little annoyed after speaking, he obviously wanted to ask this sentence in his heart, but when he opened his mouth, he said it inadvertently! (To be continued.) )
