The familiar stone bridge in the city is just around the corner!

I thought about it for a moment and said to the guard, "Just go to the busiest street I visited the day before."

The guard replied, and after a moment, I changed my mind and added, "Don't go there directly, but stop at the street corner." "It's close," I told him, "Ah, you need to find a place to park." ”

I glanced out the window and continued, "As for the street, it's okay not to drive over." “

When I went to the street that day, the flow of people in Suzhou City was in our eyes, and it was bustling endlessly. "There are too many people and carriages can't go fast, just get down and walk by yourself."

The driver in front of me answered me again.

Guarding Ah Lai has good ears, we don't have to shout loudly, and he can also hear my conversation with Yuan Bao clearly.

From this point of view, it is easy to drive with someone who knows kung fu!

The carriage got onto the stone bridge, brushed against another carriage passing on the bridge, and then got off the bridge and drove down the streets west of the city.

This should be the busiest time of the day, but our carriage passed through the streets of Dongcheng, Suzhou, and we didn't see many people passing by.

Think about the west of the city, it's really too different.

I sat in the carriage and sighed in my heart, it stands to reason that there are few people in the east of the city.

With this premise, I can't even meet my senior brother, and I'm drunk when I think about it!

As soon as you cross the stone bridge across the road, the other side of the west side of Suzhou City is bustling, and the noise outside comes in through the window with the wind.

The ingots probe glanced outside. Then the curtain was drawn.

The scene outside fell into my eyes, and I shook my head and said suspiciously: "Didn't you say that the war in the Northland is about to restart?"

"When I look at the scene in Suzhou City, why can't I feel that the situation is so tense?"

I mean the truth. I can't figure out what the people here think.

I feel that they are more calm than me, a bystander, at least I still remember the movements of the king division, when the war in the north will resume, and whether Suzhou City will have a few questions at that time!

Yuan Bao smiled when he heard this: "Childe, you seem to like to fight to come to us." ”

"That's not what I meant," I said with a frown, meeting the ingot's gaze. "I just think that the people in Suzhou don't seem to care too much about the war in the north."

"Then you're wrong."

Yuan Bao objected.

"Actually, Childe. When the war just started a while ago, Suzhou City was also in chaos for a while," Yuan Bao paused and continued, "At that time, there were people in the north who moved south. There are also many people in Suzhou City who have moved directly to the national capital. ”

"Don't talk about the docks. Horse-drawn carriages pass by every day on the mountain road. ”

Yuan Bao told me in detail about the situation at that time, and said that Suzhou City seemed to have become a transit station at that time, and you can imagine that kind of scene.

I was picking up a slit in the curtain and looking out, when I heard this, my eyes moved, I withdrew my gaze from looking out of the window, put the curtain and looked at the ingots and asked, "Then it calmed down?" ”

"That's right," Yuan Bao nodded, "It won't be long." Seeing that the situation has not changed much for the time being, the people are settled. ”

"Last time, there was a disaster in the Northland. Do you have a big impact here? I asked ingots.

The disaster in the north is even discussed in the teahouses in the national capital, and none of the tea customers in it do not say a few words.

"Suzhou City was built in the past, and it is said that there has been no direct earthquake here in the past hundred years," Yuan Bao replied to me, "Of course, we don't know, we all heard those old people talk about it." ”

I was stunned and asked, "Yuanbao, when the last time the war started, didn't you and Adele think about leaving Suzhou City?" “

Yuan Bao thought for a moment and said: "I told Adai about this matter, but the Yuwen family is not as good as other families, and they have their own ships." "Not to mention that the war hasn't reached Suzhou City yet, even if it's about to be fought, we will have time to evacuate with the people of the Yuwen family."

Yuanbao's tone was firm and sounded confident. "Childe, you may not know that the wharf in the south of Suzhou is docked by the Yuwen family's own ships all year round!"

Something seems wrong?

I spent a few days in the mountains with the tsundere boy, and then all the way to Suzhou City, and although I didn't say much to him, I always mentioned a little about the boat.

I don't think he mentioned it to me.

What I know is that he hired a boat to Suzhou, and it was a boat that stopped in front of the national capital.

What Yuan Bao is telling me now seems to be a little inconsistent with the facts I know.

My eyes moved, and I was about to ask him, but Yuan Bao answered by himself: "Childe, but our third young master didn't take the waterway at first. “

Yuan Bao looked at me and said, "Childe, I heard that the third young master came by carriage when he set off from the south, but he encountered robbers in the middle of the road, and later changed to a waterway, so our Yuwen family's boat didn't come in handy at all." “

I suddenly felt in my heart, after his explanation, it was smooth!

I caught another ambiguity in Yuanbao's words, could it be that the tsundere boy was robbed more than once along the road?

Robbery is such a thing, uh, "Yuanbao, are you sure that when the third young master of your family came out from the south, he once touched the robbery in the middle of the road?" “

I looked at Yuan Bao suspiciously and asked, I don't think I can figure it out, what is going on with the tsundere boy, could it be that he has made an enemy in Xilanan, and the other party must calculate him? "Of course I'm sure, how can I talk nonsense about this, and I don't dare to talk nonsense with a little guts," Yuan Bao hurriedly replied, "The Fu steward also knows, that's what he said." "There is more than one person in the courtyard who hears this," Yuan Bao said to me, "If you don't believe it, when you go back today, you can ask the Fu Steward, Childe." “

Yuan Bao said affirmatively to me. "No, I trust you." I looked at the ingot's expression. It's not like you're lying.

The tsundere boy is really full of disasters and difficulties, isn't it just a trip to Suzhou?

Robbers can meet two waves, he is lucky. Bad luck!

In the east house of Suzhou, the guards left in the front yard gathered together.

Among them, nearly half of them went out to run errands, and the other half left behind most of the hidden piles from the national capital.

This is also the meaning of the heavenly release.

Before the manpower here in Suzhou is evacuated to the south, let this group of people who rushed to Suzhou take a breath and rest first.

Tianfang left a guard who was previously stationed in Suzhou to explain the details to the dark piles from the national capital.

On the table in the side room, warm wine in winter. Drinks are sent in advance, and the distance is narrowed by the way.

If you have something to say, you can say it together.

Most of them were people from the national capital who listened, and the guards here in Suzhou told the story. When you don't understand something, you can ask it in a timely manner.

"According to this, you haven't been able to find any trace of that little junior sister in Suzhou City all these days?"

Of course, people who come from the capital city will be surprised. Even if it is in the national capital city that is several times larger than Suzhou. Finding someone doesn't seem to be that difficult!

I was anxious to see the Lord before, and I didn't speak so carefully, but now that the task is handed over, the topic will be easy to start.

The guards on Suzhou's side frowned and were silent, their eyes a little complicated.

He took a slow sip of wine, and only after a moment did he sigh and say, "A few times a little bit of an eyebrow." “

His tone changed, and his eyes sank and said, "But it's very strange, the clue was broken again after a short time." ”

"Isn't someone getting in the way?"

The person from the national capital asked subconsciously. Anyone would think that way.

"This thing. The Lord is not sure, let alone us. ”

The guards of Suzhou City put down the wine glasses in their hands, looked at the dark piles and said, "The little junior sister of the Lord seems to be in the national capital, but our people can't find any trace of her. ”

"It's really weird."

The group of dark piles from the national capital said in unison.

"Not really!" The guards of Suzhou City retracted their gaze, lowered their heads and said, "There is more to this strange matter, I didn't have time to elaborate on it in a hurry, so I just took this opportunity to talk about it together." ”

"Actually, when we came, we met robbers on the river."

It turned out to be the most unexpected place of Tianfang's trip, their whereabouts were secretive, and they even chose to board the ship in the capital city under a secluded mountain cliff, and they didn't expect a group of robbers to come out halfway.

As soon as the Suzhou guards said this, the dark piles from the national capital looked at each other, with a look of surprise on their faces.

"On the river near the city of Suzhou," explained the guard, "you know that the terrain is the most dangerous. ”

The rest of the room looked at him fixedly.

"At that time, I met robbers, and the little sister of the lord disappeared because there were too many people on the other side."

The guards of Suzhou City recalled with a faint expression: "The robbers dragged us for a while, and they attacked us everywhere, and they plundered people away without thinking about it. ”

"I heard that the Lord has ordered a few key people in that group of robbers to be arrested, aren't they locked up in the mansion in the east of the city?"

When the news came quickly, he had already inquired in private.

"That's right, you can go and see it later, it's strange that those people took over the task this time."

The guards of Suzhou City raised their heads slightly and looked at the few people: "So far, those people have not provided enough evidence in our opinion, and this matter is also hanging for the time being." "Okay, I'll check it out later."

One by one, the guards sighed again as they spoke, and the wind outside the window was patrolling, and the room was silent for a while

The people in the front yard were discussing things in the side room, and the sky was not idle in the study at the back.

At this moment, in the study, only he and another guard who came to Suzhou City with him.

It was one of the two guards who went to Suzhou City in the same boat as Xiaoling and him.

Tianfang reached out and took a letter from the table, took it in his hand and looked at it carefully.

The guard was beside him, and he had been looking at Tianfang's expression, and when he saw him put down the letter, he couldn't help but step forward and ask in a low voice: "Lord, this is"

Tianfang didn't answer, and handed the letter on the table.

The guard hurriedly took it, looking at Tianfang with an inquiring expression, and the latter made a gesture for him to open it himself.

The guard boldly opened the letter and read it quickly, then raised his head and looked at Tianfang with a blank expression and asked, "Lord, what should we do now?" "Look, do you send someone directly to the king's division or?"

The guards, of course, did not dare to make casual suggestions.

Because the matter involves the little junior sister of the Lord, from the moment she arrived in Suzhou City, the task has been trembling and trembling.

Any one of them was afraid that he would be rebuked by the Lord because of this.

Because everyone can see that that little junior sister has a different meaning to the Lord.

The guards guessed in their hearts that in addition to being the same teacher, there might be another layer of thought.

He didn't dare to say anything about this in any case.

The people below are all pretending to be confused, and of course he is no exception, as long as he doesn't touch the most taboo things in the Lord.

The decision is left to the leader of the team, and the guards think that they just need to do their best.

Tianfang glanced at him, guessing the scruples in the people in front of him, he lowered his voice and explained: "There is no way to arrange people to go in for the time being." "They chose to take a detour through Suzhou City, which is very disadvantageous for us, and it is more difficult to install manpower."

For the situation in front of him, Tianfang also felt tricky.

It is true that the dark pile of the national capital city was transferred to Suzhou, and at present, it seems that there is no very suitable opportunity to directly place people in the Wang Shi for the time being.

The "insertion" in the mouth of Tianfang and the guards naturally has to be close to the empress or the national teacher.

Otherwise, a small soldier in the middle and periphery of an army who cannot get close to the decision-making level can play very little role.

The guard understood the unfinished meaning of Tianfang's words, and after a short silence, he leaned closer and asked in a low voice, "Does the Lord have other plans?" ”

Tianfang glanced at him unexpectedly, and said with a smile: "How can you see it?" ”

"Well, although my subordinates look at the lord and think this is very difficult, you don't seem to be in a hurry."

The guard said hesitantly: "The subordinates guess that the master has a back move." ”

Tianfang nodded approvingly, but then said with a hint of melancholy in his tone: "It's a pity that the affairs in the south can't be delayed, if I can stay in Suzhou City for two more days, I guess I will have the answer." "You mean, there will be action on the Wang Shi's side?"

The guard pursed his lips, looking a little nervous, and he asked tentatively.

Tianfang picked up the tea cup on the table, took two sips casually, and said in a light tone with great certainty: "Yes, it will be." "I'll leave the two of you here, with the people from the capital."

"Both of you have seen her, and you are more familiar with her than the dark stake from the national capital."

Tianfang removed the tea cup in his hand, gently put it on the table, squinted his eyes, looked at the guard standing at the table, and said, "I will leave for the south after sunset." ”

Tianfang paused slightly, restrained his smile and said, "The matter here in Suzhou will be handed over to you for the time being!" (To be continued......)
