Chapter 0164 - Uninvited Guest
Early in the morning, an old man of fifty or sixty years old came to the door of Su's house, wearing a jacket robe, a leather horse coat on the outside, a melon skin hat on his head, and a sparse braid on the back of his head. This old man came to the door of the Su family and asked the little man who was guarding the door: "Is your old man Su here?" β
The little guy took a good look at the old man, and the big lama asked, "Where did you come from?" What are you looking for my lord to do? β
Lao Er took out a greeting note from his arms, handed it to Xiao Er and said: "This is Xiao Lao'er's famous thorn, please take it to your master." Your lord knows it at first sight. β
The little guy is also illiterate, and he doesn't know what is written on the famous thorn, but he said in his heart, since there is a famous thorn, most of them will not be idle miscellaneous people. Only then did his face soften slightly, and he invited Lao Er to come in and said, "The old gentleman will sit here for a while, and I will come when I go." β
The old man walked into the courtyard with a graceful demeanor, and actually sat down in the gatehouse. Seeing that the old man was generous, the little girl thought more and more that this old man had a good background, and he was holding a famous thorn in his hand, so he hurriedly went to invite the master. At this time, Su Lin was taking medicine. The old gentleman in the town peeled off the white gauze stained with blood, applied ointment to stop bleeding, and slowly wrapped a layer of clean white gauze.
The little guy was busy telling the master, and he couldn't wait outside the door, so he came in and said, "Master, there is a gentleman outside!" Looking like that, it's not a face-to-face, not a person who has come to the house to seek a job, but like a person with a background. This is his famous thorn, please take a look. β
He Jinyi hurriedly went to get the famous thorn and handed it to Su Lin. Su Lin looked at it and saw that it was written: Zhu Baoqiang, the governor of Henan, saw it. When Su Lin saw it, he was startled in his heart, thinking that he was dazzled. I took a closer look, and it was really good. It does say that Zhu Baoqiang, the governor of Henan. Su Lin hurriedly jumped up and asked, "People." Where is it? Please come to the study, good tea is served. β
The little guy knew that this person was not small when he heard the old man's tone, so he was busy and ran to invite someone. Here Su Lin is still wondering, if you want to talk about Mengjin Town, he can be regarded as a figure with a head and a face. On weekdays, there are also three or five squires who come to pay their respects, but when it comes to such a big official as the governor, he has never seen it once. The governor of Henan, that is the governor of a province. What to do in Mengjin Town? At this time, he couldn't think of so much, so he asked his husband to hastily wrap the gauze, and then he had to go to the study to pay a visit.
Fortunately, the study was not far from the inner room, and Su Lin was supported by the little maid and stood at the door to greet the guests. After a while, I saw the chief steward Wanquan leading an old man of fifty or sixty years old in. This man did not wear an official uniform, but came in civilian clothes. I think this is Zhu Baoqiang, the governor of Henan.
Su Lin hurriedly greeted the guests and said: "Su Lin, the grass people, doesn't know that the adults have descended into the burrow, and they have lost their welcome, so I hope the adults will forgive me." β
That Zhu Baoqiang smiled and said, "I can't complain about Squire Su, but I'm presumptuous to come here?" β
Su Lin hurriedly said: "Your Excellency is polite. Please sit in the room. "Let's talk about it, and I hurriedly invite Zhu Baoqiang to sit down in the house.
Zhu Baoqiang saw that Su Lin's body was inconvenient, and asked, "What's wrong with Squire Su's legs?" β
Su Lin replied, "It's okay, it's okay, it's a little injury." Nothing to speak of. At this time, the tea servant served tea, but it was the famous pre-rain hairy tip in Henan. Zhu Baoqiang uncovered the tea lid. I saw that the tea leaves were green and deep, and a fragrance came to my nose. Zhu Baoqiang was busy saying good tea.
Su Lin replied, "This tea is this year's new tea. It is boiled with last year's snow, so please try it. β
Zhu Baoqiang took two sips of tea. Praise the good tea again. After drinking tea, Su Lin asked, "I don't know what the adults have to do when they come to the house in person?" If you have something to offer, just speak. β
Only then did Zhu Baoqiang say: "This governor does not hide from Squire Su. There was a boss case under the jurisdiction of this official, and the emperor blamed it, and it was really difficult for this official to be responsible. Only then did he come to the squire's house and ask for an understanding. β
At this time, Su Lin had already guessed eight or nine. The governor personally went to Mengjin Town, mostly for the case of the theft of official silver.
Zhu Baoqiang said again: "Yi Ying robbed 650,000 taels of silver in Hungry Tiger Town. The official visited many places and investigated that he was hiding in Jiuli Mountain in this town. In order to get back the official silver, the official specially came to his home to talk about it. β
Su Lin nodded and said, "I don't know what the adults have to say?" How can I help? β
Zhu Baoqiang was embarrassed and said: "I'm sorry, I heard that Mrs. Jia and the bandit leader Yi Ying have some friendship, and I'm afraid that I want to meet Mrs. Jia." Although there are differences between men and women, the official has a lot to do with it, so he has to ask the wife of the family to talk about it in front of him. β
Su Lin pondered for a moment and said, "Speaking of which, when the adults are here, they should ask the inner body to see them." However, Neiren and Yi Ying only knew each other for a few days when they were children, and they didn't have much friendship. For so many years, I haven't seen Yi Ying, but I'm afraid that adults will have to run empty. β
Zhu Baoqiang was about to persuade a few more words, when someone outside the door said, "Who wants to take Yi Ying?" I was the first to help. β
Zhu Baoqiang hurriedly said: "Who is here?" β
Su Lin was about to reply, when he saw that the head had already entered the door. Luo Qingsong glanced at the top and said, "Who is my Dao?" It turned out to be Zhu Lao'er. The year before last, you went to Beijing to work, and Qingsong invited you to Zuixianlou for a drink, right? β
When Zhu Baoqiang saw it, he really was really a well-known Luo staff general in Beijing, so he got up and said: "Who is my Tao, it turns out that the general has arrived." How did the general have the leisure to come to Mengjin Town? β
Luo Qingsong sat down under Zhu Baoqiang and said, "This matter is a long story. However, there is a little green pine that can tell sΓΉ Lao'er, with us, you just have to rest assured, green pine will send you a big future. β
Zhu Baoqiang hurriedly said: "What big prospect?" Please also tell me carefully. β
Luo Qingsong said: "I can't say this clearly, I'll introduce two people to you, and let this person tell you about it." β
Zhu Baoqiang hurriedly said please. Luo Qingsong clapped his hands twice, and two young brothers came in from outside the door. One is urbane and elegant, tall and thin. The other is short and dark-skinned. The thin and tall man saw Zhu Baoqiang, hugged his fists and shook his luggage and said: "Under the dark incense, this is a brother and a butterfly." Our brother greets my lords. β
Zhu Baoqiang didn't know the identity of the person who came, but it was inconvenient to salute, so he only nodded slightly and said, "Please take a seat." β
Dark incense and chaotic butterflies sat down next to Luo Qingsong. Luo Qingsong Fang introduced again: "These two are Qing Gege's right-hand men. Now that Qing Gege is being detained in Jiuli Mountain, let's discuss a good way to assist Zhu Lao'er in taking the thief and retrieving the official silver, is this good? β
Hearing Luo Qingsong say this, Zhu Baoqiang was taken aback first. Although he said that he was far away in Henan, he had news with Jingshi from time to time. Qing Gege, who was given by the emperor, took corrupt officials and rebelled thieves, and had many meritorious deeds, and he was receiving the emperor's favor at this time, how could he not know the reason? It's just that he has never seen who this Qing Gege is.
As the saying goes, it depends on the owner to beat a dog, seeing that these two little brothers are Qing Gege's guards, Zhu Baoqiang hurriedly got up and said: "Two little brothers, it's rude!" The emperor only said that 650,000 taels of silver were robbed, and he didn't know that Qing Gege was also here. Why was Qing Gege captured by Yi Ying again? I hope the little brother will tell me soon. The official is also good to write an excerpt and report to the emperor. β
So, Dark Xiang told them all about how they came to Henan, how they lived in Su Lin's house, how they didn't want Yi Ying to get home, how they robbed He Jinyi and Gege, and how they put He Jinyi back, but only detained Gege. Among them, the scene of Luo Qingsong going to Jiuli Mountain alone was also briefly talked about, in order to save face for Luo Qingsong, Dark Fragrance deliberately omitted the scene where Luo Qingsong was teased by Yi Ying.
After listening, Zhu Baoqiang pondered and said: "In this way, Yi Yingke has a cult kung fu, and he occupies the mountains and rivers, so he is afraid that it will be a little difficult to attack. Don't go out of the division, lose the soldiers, and be scolded by the emperor again. Therefore, this matter has to be considered in the long run. β
Luo Qingsong couldn't bear the official tone of others, and said: "There is no need for Lao Er to think about it in the long run. Dark incense has already thought of a brilliant method, you listen to it first. β
Zhu Baoqiang hurriedly said: "Oh? Brother, come on. β
Dark incense then explained in detail the plan of "repairing the plank road in the open and crossing the Chen Cang in secret". How to go head-to-head? How to flank the siege? In the end, he was caught off guard. Zhu Baoqiang nodded as he listened. After the dark incense finished speaking, Zhu Baoqiang said that he had a good plan.
Luo Qingsong said: "If you say, is this plan feasible? β
Zhu Baoqiang hurriedly replied: "It is feasible, it is really feasible." The little brother is worthy of being the person next to Gege, and the plan he thinks is foolproof. β
Dark incense said with a smile: "Although this strategy is good, it is a dangerous strategy. Back then, Deng Aitun's soldiers were in the north of Baishui, and Jiang Wei sent Liao Huatun soldiers to the south of Baishui. Deng Ai saw Jiang Wei deploying troops like this, and said to the soldiers: "Jiang Wei sent Liao Hua to camp on the south bank of Baishui, and he didn't build a bridge, just watched. I think this is Jiang Wei's trick, so that Liao Hua paralyzed me, thinking that he was going to attack from here. In fact, the army made a detour to the east to take Taocheng. Sure enough, Deng Ai sent troops to Taocheng in the middle of the night. Sure enough, Jiang Wei attacked at night. It's just that Deng Aijun arrived first, so Jiang Wei returned defeated. That's why I said it was a good strategy, but it was a little riskier. If Yi Ying sees through our strategy, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to succeed. β
Zhu Baoqiang pondered for a while, and said in his heart, at this point, I am afraid that there is no other better way. Besides, if the officers and troops attack from the front, success is naturally best; If they don't succeed, there are also Gege's men who sneak up on the flanks. The success of the sneak attack is finally a credit to him; If the sneak attack is unsuccessful, in front of the emperor, you can shirk the responsibility, and in the end, you can take responsibility. If this is the case, Zhu Baoqiang raised his head and said: "I think the little brother's idea is very good, let's follow this plan." It's just the details, and we have to discuss it carefully. β
Seeing that the plan had been decided, Su Lin hurriedly got up and said, "I see that you have been discussing for a long time, and you are a little tired. Today, since you have come to the old man's house, it is also the honor of the old man. Lao Er asked the kitchen to prepare a table of good wine and food, everyone look at Lao Er's thin noodles, you must drink happily. β
When Butterfly heard this, she was the first to clap her hands in approval. If the plan fails, you must first eat and drink enough. Zhu Baoqiang was interested in getting to know the people around Gege, so he smiled and responded. Luo Qingsong and Dark Xiang naturally had nothing to say. Seeing this, the Soviet Union hurriedly ordered its subordinates to serve food and wine, which should be regarded as a salary for the army before it traveled. (To be continued......)
