Volume 1 Through the Tang Dynasty Chapter 47 Tracking

As the sun sets, a refreshing wind blows in the face, as if all worries and exhaustion have been put aside, and every tense nerve in the body is gradually relieved

Lu Xiaoxian did not go to Qunfang Pavilion, but found Yang Si and took Zhang Meng and Qin Jun out of the inn together.

They strolled down the street, Yang Si walking side by side with him, and Zhang Meng and Qin Jun following behind them.

Lu Xiaoxian asked Yang Si as he walked, "There is nothing unusual about the Feng family and the Tan family, right?" ”

Yang Si shook his head.

"What's going on with Wan Guojun?"

Yang Si still shook his head: "There is no action, I stay in the post house every day, and I don't even go out!" ”

"That's weird!" Lu Xiaoxian stopped, "It stands to reason that they should have fought a long time ago, why did both sides stand still?" ”

"I think it's weird, but I just can't figure it out!" Yang Si's face was sad.

Lu Xiaoxian pondered and said: "This matter is not urgent, calm down, they don't move, Brother Yang, you can't move!" ”

With that, Lu Xiaoxian walked towards a vendor selling oranges.

"Are oranges sweet or not?" Lu Xiaoxian asked casually.

The peddler patted his chest confidently and said, "No sweetness, no money!" ”

Lu Xiaoxian blurted out: "Then weigh me two catties that are not sweet." ”

The peddler was stunned and shook his head.

He picked up a few rotten oranges from the side and put them up for Lu Xiaoxian and said, "This son, if you want to eat oranges, come to me, they are all home-grown, and you don't need money......"

This time it was Lu Xiaoxian's turn to be stunned, it was originally a joke, but others misunderstood.

……

In a guest room in the inner courtyard of the post house, Wan Guojun and a middle-aged man were talking.

The middle-aged man's name is Wei Xuzhong, and he came to Lingnan with Wan Guojun this time to verify the rebellion of the Liuren, and he is Wan Guojun's deputy.

Wei Xuzhong sat in front of Wan Guojun with a big grin, dangling his legs, and his voice was surprisingly loud: "Brother Wan, do we just stay in this ghost place every day and don't have to do anything?" ”

It has been more than 20 days since they came to Panzhou, and Wan Guojun has done nothing but collect whistleblowing letters every day, no wonder Wei Xuzhong is in a hurry. According to Wei Xuzhong's temperament, if someone rebels, he will be arrested, and those who should be sentenced will be sentenced. If there is no evidence, then go back to Beijing to resume your life, and you can't stay in Panzhou all the time.

Wan Guojun couldn't help but be disdainful: A rough man is a rough man, how can he know what kind of strategy.

Although Wan Guojun and Wei Xuzhong are both cool officials, he doesn't look down on Wei Xuzhong at all. Wan Guojun has read books and does things with his brain, while Wei Xuzhong is a big boss, except for fighting and killing, he has no ability to do it. Although they are both supervising the imperial history, and their rank is the same, but in Zuosu Zhengtai, except for Lai Junchen, he is the most famous among all countries, and he has a tendency to catch up.

Although Wan Guojun looked down on Wei Xuzhong, he didn't show it on his face, after all, Wei Xuzhong was Lai Junchen's henchman.

Wan Guojun knew in his heart that the reason why Lai Junchen sent Wei Xuzhong to come to Panzhou with him was not only to let Wei Xuzhong make meritorious contributions, but more importantly, to let him spy on himself, after all, he had already threatened Lai Junchen's status.

Wan Guojun smiled slightly: "Wei Yushi, don't worry, if you want to hurry, you can't reach it, the more stable we are, the more they can't hold their breath." Don't worry, it won't be long before they'll show their feet! ”

Wei Xuzhong also looked down on Wan Guojun, and he felt that Wan Guojun was not decisive at all. If he was in Luoyang, he wouldn't pay attention to Wan Guojun at all, and if he felt that anyone would have a problem, he would be directly imprisoned and tortured, and who would dare not admit him.

However, before coming to Panzhou, Lai Junchen repeatedly told him to obey Wan Guojun. Although he felt aggrieved, Wei Xuzhong was helpless.

"Okay, don't forget to inform me if you have news, I'll go out for a walk first!" Wei Xuzhong clenched his fists, turned around and walked out of the room.

Looking at the back of Wei Xuzhong leaving, Wan Guojun picked up the fragrant tea on the table and said to himself: The time is almost there, it's time to add heat to them! ”

Out of the gate of the post house, Wei Xuzhong patted his head and couldn't help sighing.

For the past two days, he was in a bad mood. is not only because the day of returning to Luoyang is far away, but also because of that bad luck.

Wei Xuzhong likes to drink and gamble for money, and Lai Junchen was worried that Wei Xuzhong would make a mistake, so when he left Luoyang, he specifically warned him that drinking and gambling were prohibited during his stay in Panzhou.

Maybe it was because he had been holding back for too long, and the night before yesterday, he sent a ghost to the largest financial source gambling house in Panzhou.

In the beginning, he had good luck and won a lot of silver.

But later, a young master appeared to bet with him, and as a result, he lost the two hundred taels of silver he brought.

Wei Xuzhong's gambling skills are good, and he is well-known in Luoyang, which makes him proud of all the time, but who knows that he capsized in the gutter and planted a heel in Panzhou, of course he was not convinced.

Last night, Wei Xuzhong made a comeback and brought another three hundred taels of silver to the open source gambling house, and he was still the same young master, but he still returned empty-handed.

If you change to someone else, you will admit that you will stop there.

But Wei Xuzhong is an ordinary person, although his official rank is not high, but the internal and external officials are under his supervision, his authority is very wide, and he is quite feared by hundreds of officials.

Wei Xuzhong stretched out his hand and touched a few silver tickets in his arms, a total of five hundred taels.

This is the last bargaining chip, if you lose again, it is estimated that you will not even have the money to eat.

At this time, he couldn't think about the future, and stomped his feet in the direction of the Caiyuan Casino.

……

Yang Si's footsteps suddenly slowed down, and he said to himself: "Huh? How is he? ”

Lu Xiaoxian asked strangely, "Brother Yang, what's wrong?" ”

Yang Si said with a smile in front of him: "He is Wan Guojun's deputy, named Wei Xuzhong, I don't know where to go so late!" ”

Lu Xiaoxian saw that a middle-aged man was hurrying towards them, and he whispered to Yang Si: "Don't stop, keep walking, don't let him see anything wrong!" ”

Wei Xuzhong passed by them, and Yang Si was about to speak, but he heard Lu Xiaoxian's voice again: "Don't speak, keep walking, there is a tail staring at him!" ”

Yang Si was shocked, and sure enough, he found that two people passed by them, sneakily following behind Wei Xuzhong.

"Keep going, there's a bunch of people!"

The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind, and the people who are following Wei Xuzhong probably didn't expect that when they were following Wei Xuzhong, there were still people following them.

This group is the same two, but compared to the previous two, their vigilance is much higher.

Yang Si breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that the situation was much more complicated than expected.

After the two groups of people passed, Lu Xiaoxian stopped, and he instructed Zhang Meng: "You quietly watch the two people in the back to see where they went in the end!" ”

Zhang Meng nodded, and was about to turn around, but was stopped by Lu Xiaoxian: "These two people are not ordinary, don't follow too closely, don't let them notice!" ”

"Don't worry!" Zhang Meng hurried away.

Lu Xiaoxian said solemnly to Yang Si again: "Brother Yang, the two people in front of you will be handed over to you, this is our only clue!" ”

"I know the weight!" Yang Si asked, "Brother Lu, what about you?" ”

"Qin Jun and I follow Wei Xuzhong and see what he has to do!"

"I'll go with you!" Yang Si pleaded.

"What about that first bunch?"

Yang Si smiled slightly: "I've already arranged it, don't worry, they can't run!" ”

Yang Si has been following Lu Xiaoxian's side, neither seeing him leave, nor seeing him contact anyone, but he has already handed over the task to his subordinates, which shows the tacit understanding between him and his subordinates.

Lu Xiaoxian looked at Yang Si and nodded slightly, which could be regarded as acquiescence.
