Chapter 168: The Guards

Hou Yue said dissatisfiedly: "Uncle, Lord Lu will come back, besides, my father is gone, isn't there still me in the yamen?" ”

Chen Zhi laughed and said: "You are just a little catcher, how many can you rank in this Hui'an Mansion?" ”

Hou Yue blushed and didn't speak again.

"Big brother, don't worry, I have my own measure." Hou Kaishan said in a deep voice.

Hou Kaitai was not at ease with him at all, and continued to persuade: "I know that Hui'an Mansion is now in power by Qin Yu, and he used to be Lord Lu's old department, but brother, you must know that people's hearts will change, and I suggest that you do not ...... Lord Lu in front of him in the future."

"Bump!" Hou Kaishan slapped the table vigorously and asked, "Big brother, who did you hear that Qin Yu is now in power?" ”

"Xiao Yue told me." Hou Kaitai replied, seeing that his younger brother was angry, he didn't dare to persuade him anymore.

Hou Yue, who was arguing with Hou Wan'er, heard his name and said with a smile: "What's wrong?" What's wrong? Why did you mention me? ”

Hou Kaishan first gave him a crisp sound on his head, and then said: "In the future, you don't talk about the affairs in the government outside!" ”

Hou Yue touched his head and said aggrievedly: "Dad, I said it at home, not outside!" ”

Hou Kaishan was about to fight, Hou Kaitai snorted: "Second brother, I want Xiao Yue to tell me, if you want to fight, just fight with me, the eldest brother!" ”

"Big brother, don't worry about the affairs of the government, I have a sense of proportion." Hou Kaishan naturally wouldn't beat his eldest brother, and persuaded him bitterly.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and as soon as Chen Zhi got up, he was stopped by Hou Yue, and he smiled and said, "I'll open the door." ”

After a while, Hou Yue's voice came from outside: "Dad, General Qin is here!" ”

Hou Kaitai was taken aback and said, "Second brother, you said that I was talking about him behind his back just now, shouldn't he hear it?" ”

"Uncle Hou, are you a clairvoyant?" Chen Zhi laughed.

Hou Kaitai is still not at ease, people who say bad things behind their backs often feel that they are heard by the other party.

Hou Kaishan ignored his eldest brother, went out, and went to the courtyard to receive Qin Youyu.

Hou Kaitai thought about it, and followed him out, and when he left the house, he happened to see Hou Kaishan leading the first person from Hui'an Mansion into the study.

He quietly took a few steps closer, and listened to the Qin general, only to hear the Qin general ask, "Brother Hou, how are you recovering recently?" ”

"I've been practicing martial arts every day lately, and I'm feeling much better." Hou Kaishan replied.

"That's good, you were so sad before, it shows your loyalty to Lu Lang, I want to form a personal guard battalion of Lu Lang, and you will be the captain of the personal guard battalion, are you willing?"

Hou Kaitai, who eavesdropped, was stunned? Why did General Qin call Lord Lu Lang? Suddenly, his head exploded, and he secretly exclaimed: "Woman, it turns out that she is a woman!" ”

At this time, Hou Yue's voice came from next to him: "Uncle, what are you doing?" ”

Hou Kaitai was taken aback, and said with a smile: "It's nothing, let's go, let's go eat!" ”

At this moment, he thought a lot, he finally knew why Hou Kaishan trusted Qin Yu so much, she was probably the wife of Lord Lu.

But this doesn't matter to him, the important thing is that judging from the conversation just now, his second brother is about to become some kind of personal guard general, and this is enough for him.

In the study, Hou Kaishan was overjoyed when he heard Qin You's edict to let him command five thousand people, and was about to agree, but after thinking about it, he smiled bitterly and said: "General Qin, I won't lead troops, I'm afraid I won't be able to lead them." ”

"It's okay, I've helped you train the soldiers, you can train step by step in the future, and I will send Xu Qian to you as a deputy." Qin Youyu said with a smile.

She is going to take 5,000 people from the left battalion as a personal guard battalion to Hou Kaishan to command, and she will recruit 5,000 people again, and now the commercial development momentum of Hui'an Mansion is good, and the 500,000 taels sent by Lu Yuan still have a balance of 50,000 taels, so she wants to increase the number of 5,000 people.

Being the captain of Lu Yuan's personal guard was exactly what Hou Kaishan dreamed of, and he said happily: "Thank you General Qin, I am willing to do it." ”

"That's fine, you can come to Xin'an Camp tomorrow." With that, Qin Youyu said goodbye and left.

……

Hui'an House.

A few days ago, Luo Xiaobei helped her go to Fuyang County to inquire about the situation of Qi ng, Xia Yurong learned that although her father was released, he was dismissed from office, she was really relieved, and wanted to go back to see her father.

She solemnly instructed: "Grandpa Wang, sister Yun'er, when Brother Wu is back, you must remind her and let him come to Fuyang to find me." ”

The implication is that she hopes that Jin Yuanwu will go to Fuyang to ask for relatives, and in this unfamiliar Hui'an Mansion, she can only ask Wang Gui and Lu Yun'er.

Wang Gui nodded kindly, grabbed Xia Yurong's hand and patted it.

Lu Yun'er said in a complicated manner: "I will, sister, you take care of yourself all the way." ”

"Don't worry, I'll protect Miss Xia well, farewell." Luo Xiaobei said with a smile, helped Xia Yurong into the carriage, and drove away.

……

Jinling City, Su Province.

Cao Yin and Su Liuying were reading the news from Hui'an Mansion together, while Ma Kongming was playing with a wooden shovel, which could be spliced, with a total of more than 20 pieces, and the structure was extremely exquisite.

Jin Yuanwu was also very admiring when he watched from the side, he really didn't expect that Lu Yun'er's girl could actually create such a delicate thing.

"They're so good that they've done it." Cao Yin looked at the letter from Hui'an Mansion and sighed.

The letter introduced the latest situation of Hui'an Prefecture, including the military situation and financial situation, this level of information was originally something she had never had access to in her life, but in order to make Lu Yuan feel more at ease after learning about these reports, the high-level officials of Hui'an Mansion allowed them to know about this, and then passed the news to Lu Yuan.

She was secretly thinking about how to get the news in, and heard Su Liuying's laughter in her ears: "You are also very powerful, I don't have to use my brain after you come." ”

Cao Yin snorted secretly: "It's not like you didn't use your brains before I came. He said, "Don't pat me on the back, and don't try to win me over or persuade me, anyway, I won't be stupid with you in the future." ”

Su Liuying was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "It's not important, when will we pass on these news to Lu Yuan?" ”

Seeing Su Liuying ignoring what she had just said, a wave of anger suddenly rose in Cao Yin's heart, and she said angrily: "Are you stupid? What if a letter falls into someone else's hands? This kind of important news can only be passed on orally, whether you understand it or not! ”

Su Liuying didn't know why she suddenly got angry, and thought she was worried about failure, so she comforted: "Don't worry, everything will be fine." ”

Cao Yin wanted to hit her headfirst in the face, but suddenly her eyes rolled and she said, "It's time for you to appear." ”

"Appearance?" Su Liuying said in confusion.

"You've been hooking up with King Qi for so long, it's time to ask him!" Cao Yin didn't have a good airway.

Su Liuying didn't care about her use of the word "hookup", and said with a smile: "Can I finally go to see Lu Yuan?" That's great. ”

Cao Yin poured cold water and said: "For the sake of the overall situation, if he is unruly to you, you have to be patient, as long as he doesn't break the bottom line, don't resist, understand?" ”

Su Liuying smiled: "No, he's been very obedient lately, and he won't move his hands and feet." ”

Cao Yin suddenly regretted teaching her the art of taming husbands that she had studied for many years, and lowered her head and sulked.

At this time, Yang Chong walked in and said, "Miss Cao, our brothers who stayed near the Wu Mansion reported that Wu Bafeng wanted to see you. ”

Jinling City, Wufu Garden.

When Wu Bafeng saw Cao Yin and Ma Kongming, he bowed down and smiled: "Miss Cao, you are here." ”

"What did you do with me sending someone for me?" Cao Yin got straight to the point.

Wu Bafeng said with a bitter face: "Miss Cao, we can be regarded as an old relationship that has cooperated many times, you have to help me this time." ”

"I don't have so much spare time to talk nonsense with you."

Wu Bafeng hurriedly got to the point and said: "That's the case, yesterday a wave of strange people came to me, and they also asked me to help transfer one person to the secret prison, you know, I have replaced all the people who can be changed in the secret prison, and the rest cannot be changed." ”

"What kind of weirdo is it?" Cao Yin exclaimed.

Wu Bafeng pouted and said: "Although that person is masked, his eyes are blue, and he is not a good person at first glance, I pretended to agree, they will definitely come to me tonight!" ”

Ma Kongming said in a deep voice: "Does he have anything in his hand?" ”

Wu Bafeng was very afraid of Ma Kongming, didn't dare to look at his eyes, lowered his head and said, "It seems to be holding something, by the way, it's a cross-shaped thing." ”

"That's right, those people are from the Jingjiao of the Southern Han Dynasty, and now there are only blue-eyed people among them in Jinling City, and they regard faith as more important than life, and they will carry magic weapons wherever they go." Ma Kongming hugged his arms and said slowly.

"Did you deal with it?" Cao Yin asked.

"No problem."

Cao Yin smiled slightly, feeling that Ma Kongming was a little stupid, but it was quite reliable, and said with a smile: "Wu Bafeng, this matter will be left to us, you can sleep peacefully at night." ”

Wu Bafeng snorted: "That, Miss Cao, in fact, a group of people also came to me this morning. ”

"You're still in demand, are they also going to transfer people to the secret prison?" Cao Yin laughed.

"That's not it, they just asked me to help spread a message to the prisoner named Lu Yuan who you asked me to transfer, the other party is very fierce, I have no choice but to agree."
