When we are blinded by hatred, we miss the truth. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Li En took Yuxiao and others back to the Luoyang League Lord's Mansion, which was much warmer than Yanbei, but Gu Wufu's departure with Kaohsiung made the League Lord's Mansion much more deserted.
The gentleman in charge of the bookkeeping reported to Rien the income and expenditure of the alliance lord's mansion for more than a year, and in the face of the long bill, his head immediately became big, and he hurriedly asked Jin Shenghan to invite Yuxiao and Yu Zhenghua to come over and inspect together.
Yuxiao rushed over, saw the bill, and said, "This is the responsibility of your alliance leader, so it's inconvenient for me to participate!" ”
Li En hurriedly handed over the bill to Yu Zhenghua and said, "Big brother, I'm just a scholar and don't know anything about accounting at all, so let's take a look!" If there's anything you need to sign, just say it. ”
Yu Zhenghua took the bill and just took a cursory look at it, then put his eyes on the bottom, and said: "The total income is 17,3962 yuan and 4 milli silver, and the total expenditure is 23,946 taels of silver, so there is still a deficit in the accounts of our alliance lord's mansion?" ”
The bookkeeper nodded and answered: "Yes, the eight guards of the Alliance Lord's Mansion and the Inspectors, and the Alliance Leader's Assistant's Envoy are still in arrears, and they haven't received their salaries for almost two years on the side of Tu Mountain and the Iron Charcoal!" ”
"How so? Isn't the Alliance Leader's Mansion in charge of the world's martial arts? Ryan asked.
Yu Zhenghua couldn't understand these bills, so he said: "It took four thousand five hundred taels of silver to comfort the Nine Great Sects, and three thousand two hundred taels of silver was spent on medicine in the alliance leader's mansion. ”
The bookkeeper hurriedly explained: "This time, it took two thousand taels of silver to buy ginseng for Miss Gao alone. ”
As soon as Miss Gao was mentioned, Ryan asked, "How was Miss Gao doing before she went to Suzhou?" ”
Yu Zhenghua said: "The body is very weak, it can be described as weak and windless, Doctor Xue said that Miss Gao needs long-term recuperation." ”
The bookkeeper asked, "Two alliance leaders, what about the money we owe?" It's almost the end of the year again, and there are still big expenses? ”
Rien looked at Yu Zhenghua and asked for his opinion.
Yu Zhenghua said: "It's the end of the year again, and the annual tribute of the various cottages and water villages should also be paid!" Hurry up and urge them to turn in, and relieve the urgent need first! ”
Rien said, "It's better to withdraw Dean Tu and them first, the hunt for King Mu is about to end!" ”
Yu Xiao said: "Then we have to wait until King Mu is caught before withdrawing them, otherwise all our efforts will be wasted?" ”
Yu Zhenghua said: "Yes, Miss Yuxiao is right!" ”
At the beginning of November, it also snowed heavily in Luoyang, and Rien was anxiously waiting for the news from Yanbei in the room of the alliance leader's mansion.
Rien asked, "How big is the Eight Tombs?" It's been more than ten days since we came back from Yanbei, and they should have results even if they search inch by inch? ”
Xue Tao came to report that Suo An had brought back news from Suzhou.
Rien was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "Invite him in!" ”
Suo An met Yu Zhenghua and Lien, and then said: "I was ordered by the senior inspector to report to the alliance leader and tell the alliance leader a bad news, my young lady died of illness in Suzhou!" ”
After hearing this, Lien sat down in a chair, and Yu Zhenghua hurriedly asked, "Isn't Miss Gao okay when she left Luoyang?" How did you get to Suzhou and die? ”
Suo An said: "We don't know, but Gao Gongzi saw Elder Shui's whereabouts in Suzhou, and he also received a letter from Elder Shui!" With that, he took the letter from his sleeve and handed it to Rien.
Rien opened it, only to see that the letter only wrote "In the rivers and lakes, how can you finish the nest?" Kaohsiung, you have been crisscrossing the rivers and lakes for 23 years, and you are in a high position as the right envoy of the alliance leader, and now you have to taste the taste of being dismissed from office and losing your loved ones! ”
The letter was full of attacks and ridicule against the Kaohsiung family, Lien's hands trembled a little, and Yu Zhenghua asked: "Then did your son-in-law continue to pursue the whereabouts of Elder Shui?" ”
Suo An nodded and responded: "My lord and son have already taken Mu Xing and Suo Tong to chase after them, and Ah Qing has stayed to take care of his wife!" They need help, otherwise they will be helpless to catch up with Elder Shui! ”
Lien immediately stood up and said, "I'll go to Suzhou with you!" ”
Suo An stood still, and Yu Zhenghua said, "Brother Yi, what's the use of you going?" It's better to quickly order Jin Guoshi to come back! ”
Rien said: "I'll give an edict, big brother, you first arrange for the guards to eat and rest!" ”
Yu Zhenghua led Suo An out of the room, Yuxiao soon brought Abi in, Lien was waving a pen, and when he saw the two of them coming in, he said: "Elder Shui has appeared in Suzhou, we have to go quickly!" ”
Yuxiao was also very surprised when she heard this, and said: "This old fox actually hid from under our noses to Suzhou, so I will gather the chivalrous team and prepare to go to Suzhou!" ”
Li En issued two edicts in a row, one was to order Dean Tu to lead the two sects of Xiuzhen to retreat to Luoyang from Yanbei and Yanmen Pass, preparing to go to Suzhou to encircle and suppress Elder Shui, and the second was to order Jin Guoshi to give up the pursuit of King Mu!
Ah Bi said to the two: "Even if we have a team of chivalrous women, we are not Elder Shui's opponents?" ”
Rien said, "Senior Kaohsiung has already gone to pursue Elder Shui. ”
Yuxiao asked, "Are there any masters in the Alliance Lord's Mansion?" ”
Rien asked, "Xu Jie, isn't it?" ”
He and Yu Zhenghua immediately went to meet Xu Jie, who was enjoying the snow in front of the window.
Li En said straight to the point: "Xu Shizhong, there is news from Suzhou, Miss Gao has passed away, it is likely that Elder Shui did it, and now Gao Youenvoy and Gao Jin Gongzi have gone to pursue Elder Shui's whereabouts, we must hurry up to support them!" ”
After hearing this, Xu Jie said, "In order to hunt down a water elder, do you want to mobilize the people?" ”
Yu Zhenghua said: "Xu Shizhong means that Gao You can deal with Elder Shui alone?" ”
Xu Jie said: "No matter how high Elder Shui's martial arts are, he has now become a lost dog and a rat crossing the street, it is not difficult to defeat him, the difficulty is how to find him!" ”
Rien said: "The beggar gang disciples are the most well-informed, so I will order in the name of the beggar gang leader to order all the beggar gang disciples to search for Elder Shui's traces!" However, I have to go back to the helmsman of the beggar gang in person, and Xu Shizhong will also go to Suzhou with us! ”
Xu Jie excused himself and said: "But the old man is no longer a waiter, and he is unwell and can't stand the fatigue of the journey." ”
Rien said: "My mount was killed by the Wood King on the fifth floor of the ancient tomb, I will now ride your mount with you to the helm of the beggar gang quickly, and Miss Yuxiao led the heroine team to Suzhou by boat to meet us!" Only when we are well prepared can we arrest Elder Shui and return!" ”
Xu Jie still wanted to refuse, so Rien took off his bearskin coat and said: "This bearskin coat was hunted by me when I was in Yanbei, and it was given to Senior Xu to keep out the cold, and when we defeat Elder Shui, I will definitely restore Senior Xu's position as a servant!" ”
Sui Han Siyou hurriedly packed up their salutes, and left the alliance leader's mansion with Li En and Xu Jie.
Yuxiao wanted to leave Li Zhan and Xiao Caihong in the alliance leader's mansion, but the two didn't want to stay, so they had to take them with them, and then rushed to Suzhou by boat. (To be continued.) )
