Chapter 181: Foreign 'Hui Qiang'
Chapter 181
"Settled?"
Zuo Yuanfeng glanced up at his son standing in front of him, just asked, and then lowered his head to look at a large map spread out on the table.
"Well, it's settled. Four days later, the Great Pilgrimage Meeting. After approaching, Zuo Idiot looked down at the map on his father's desk, and replied lightly.
"Sure enough." After listening to this, Zuo Yuanfeng saw that the day set by Zuo Yuanfeng was not different from what he had guessed, so he nodded and said.
"It's ...... A map of the North? ”
Zuo Idiot looked at the outline on the map, and the terrain and markings drawn seemed to be the northern border of Xining, so he asked suspiciously.
Zuo Yuanfeng nodded, but he still didn't look up at Zuo Idiot and said:
"That's right, it's the map of the North. Recently, there has been some instability in the north, and the emperor is ready to let me go on an inspection. ”
"Is it a foreign invasion? Which family? Zuo asked when he heard this.
"Look," Zuo Yuanfeng stretched out his hand to point to a place on the map, and said to Zuo Yuanfeng:
"This is a valley 500 miles away from the northern city wall, and there is news that there are Uighur people there recently."
"Huiqiang?" Zuo Idiot immediately asked suspiciously.
Zuo Yuanfeng frowned and straightened up, looked at Zuo Idiot and nodded and said in a deep voice:
"That's right, you also know that there are many foreign tribes on my Xining border, especially in the north. However, due to the continuous strength of the Xining Dynasty, all the foreign tribes in the north did not easily cross the northern border, let alone the range of activities of the Hui Qiang people, except for the annual routine tribute. It is a valley only 500 miles from the northern border. ”
"But what's the inside news?" Seeing this, Zuo Idiot couldn't help but ponder secretly.
Zuo Yuanfeng shook his head and said:
"It's the absence that makes the father uneasy. I got the news that not many Huiqiang people came, according to speculation. There are no more than 1,000 people. It's not enough to give me much attention, but there's one thing I care about......"
Zuo nodded stupidly, and then said with Zuo Yuanfeng's words:
"What you care about is why they're here."
Zuo Yuanfeng nodded, frowning and looking at the topographic map of the valley where the Hui Qiang people were stationed on the map, but he did not speak.
Seeing this, Zuo Idiot also lowered his head and looked more carefully at the valley where Zuo Yuanfeng's finger pointed before, and after looking at it for a long time, Zuo Idiot suddenly discovered something. He actually stretched out his hand and turned the map around, looking at it more carefully.
Seeing his son like this, Zuo Yuanfeng frowned and stood in front of Zuo Yuanfeng. Clam up.
With Zuo Yuanfeng's understanding of his son, Zuo Idiot must have found something strange like this.
Although Zuo Yuanfeng has never developed his son towards the military, Zuo Yuanfeng has been exposed to it since he was a child. It is also no stranger to this map that is extremely familiar to those who march and fight.
Really. The more Zuo Idiot looked, the more his brows wrinkled, obviously there was something special that shocked Zuo Idiot.
"But what did you find?" Zuo Yuanfeng asked.
Zuo Idiot didn't answer immediately, but carefully looked at the terrain outline of that valley, as if after confirming something, he raised his head and looked at Zuo Yuanfeng and said:
"Father, this map, it's not right. I think the valley you just pointed to, I've seen it. ”
"Have you seen it? But on a different map? This kind of map is rare, though. But it's possible that you've seen it in other places. ”
Zuo Yuanfeng was a little surprised at first glance, but after thinking about it, he felt that it might be that Zuo Yuanfeng had accidentally seen the outline of the terrain of this valley somewhere, but it must have been of little help to what he was worrying about.
Unexpectedly, Zuo Idiot shook his head and said:
"Father, I can't yet assert the intentions of the Hui Qiang people to move around that valley, but there is one thing I can tell you with certainty now, I am afraid that this matter, I am afraid...... It has something to do with Deng Si'er! ”
"Deng Si'er?! What do you mean by that? How could it have anything to do with him?! Zuo Yuanfeng was immediately surprised when he heard this.
"Father, I can't tell you now, and I can't be distracted by this matter at this time, until the matter I started is over, and then I will go to the north to investigate." Zuo Idiot said.
Zuo Yuanfeng was stunned when he heard this, nodded and said:
"Well, when the court meeting is over, I will leave for the north, and when your affairs are over, you can go to the north to join me."
Zuo Idiot nodded, looked at his father and said:
"Father, there's something I need you to do me a favor."
Zuo Yuanfeng was about to look down at the map again, but he didn't expect to hear Zuo Idiot say this, so he looked up at Zuo Idiot and said in surprise:
"What's the matter? You're asking me to help you in person? ”
Although Zuo Idiot is Zuo Yuanfeng's only son and has a noble status, he has always been a loner.
Zuo Yuanfeng even knew that his son, since he learned kung fu from Daoist Qingfeng, had a great ability, and he could indeed easily complete ordinary things alone, even if he encountered any obstacles, he never needed help from others.
I don't need to find someone to help, and I never pay attention to the obstruction or obstruction from all sides, so that's how the name of the left's 'iron-blooded god catcher' came from.
Now seeing that Zuo Yuanfeng did not shy away from asking for his help, although Zuo Yuanfeng was surprised, but in the end, he didn't say anything about his son's face, and nodded directly:
"What's the matter? You say come and hear it. ”
Hearing this, Zuo Idiot pondered for a while, and then said:
"Four days later, on the day of the Great Pilgrimage, I asked my father to enter the palace before us."
Zuo Yuanfeng said in surprise when he heard this:
"How do you say that?"
"Father, you don't know, I went into the palace to ask the emperor for my post, and at the end of the day I went to the harem to ask the queen mother for peace, and when I came out, I found that someone from Xiaoren Palace was following." Zuo Idiot said.
"Hyoin Palace...... You mean, Song Guifei? Zuo Yuanfeng immediately understood when he heard this, and asked with a frown.
Zuo Idiot nodded, and seeing that his father already understood, he said lightly:
"I wonder if Song Guifei has already received some news about our plan, or received some advice from Song Yuqiu, otherwise, Song Guifei has never had any contact with our Anguo Marquis Mansion, how could she suddenly send someone to follow me?"
"Did you catch that man?" Zuo Yuanfeng asked.
"No, it's always bad to do it easily in the palace, not to mention that person is someone from Song Guifei's side? And I also wanted to see how they reacted next. Zuo Nian shook his head and said softly.
Zuo Yuanfeng knew that his son had always had his own opinions, so when he saw this, he didn't say more, but asked:
"Then you let me enter the palace as soon as possible on the day of the big court, is it ......?"
Hearing this, Zuo Idiot nodded and said:
"Yes, the reason why I let you enter the palace in advance is to let my father drag the emperor and prevent the emperor from seeing Song Guifei before the court meeting, so as not to let her say anything unfavorable to us......"
Zuo Yuanfeng raised his eyebrows and looked at his son, but he didn't expect that the first time he opened his mouth to ask for help, it was such a call, and he couldn't help but feel helpless for a while, so he lowered his head and continued to look at the map on the table.
Seeing that his father agreed, Zuo Idiot silently turned around and prepared to leave.
But I heard Zuo Yuanfeng's calm and majestic voice sounding:
"Since you have decided to do it, you have to do it beautifully! You are my son, and you can't be like the rat who is so young. ”
Hearing this, Zuo Idiot didn't look back, but the corners of his mouth were slightly curved, and even his voice had a hint of contempt for the world:
"This is natural!" (To be continued.) )
