Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Search Yields No Results

Liu Yi rushed to the alley, and when he heard the people below report that Mu Hong had run away, he couldn't help but say angrily: "Are you stupid? If you don't have it here, just go to the other side and look for it. ”

The leader was a commander, so he stepped forward and saluted: "Lord Hui, on the opposite side of the wall is Zhang Xiaochun and Zhang Darao's mansion, I don't dare to wait." ”

Liu Yi's face changed, and then he said: "Even if it is his Zhang Xiaochun's family, then Mu Hong is the son of the Harbin military division, I don't believe that the Jin people can still protect him and go; Let's go to the front and call the door! ”

At that moment, Liu Yi took people and made a noise to the front, and at the same time sent people to surround the entire Zhang Mansion.

The gate of Zhang's mansion is not big, only about the same as the door of an ordinary rich family, but Liu Yi stood there, although he was so strong just now that he hesitated for a while before he dared to walk over and knock on the door, but he also knocked on the door knocker with a heart, although no one responded even after knocking a few times, he didn't dare to use force.

After knocking for a while, the door creaked open, and an old soldier walked out, his left leg was shortened, he was on a wooden crutch, his right eye was gone, and one eye was full of ferocity, turning around Liu Yi's body, as if he was going to stare at a piece of meat on his body, one left hand was missing two fingers, holding the lantern handle with his stump finger, and his mouth was hoarse, like a wild ape in the mountains, sharp and powerful: "What are you going to do?" ”

Liu Yi was startled, and hurriedly took a few steps back, a few steps away from the old army, and then said: "Back to the old man, Liu Yi, the head of the soldiers and horses of a certain famous mansion, meet Mr. Zhang." ”

"Wait!" The old soldier scolded, walked back with crutches and twisted three times, Liu Yi was scolded and didn't even have a little temper, so he stood there and waited.

About half an hour later, Liu Yi was a little annoyed waiting, only to see a light coming from the door, hurriedly dressed and walked over, and when the light was near, he immediately saluted deeply and said: "The last general, Liu Yi, has seen Mr. Zhang." ”

Under the light, a thin old man stood there with a wooden cane, looked at Liu Yi with clear eyes, and said lightly: "The manager came at night, but what happened?" ”

Liu Yixin said: "It's going to be yellow outside, don't you know?" But he didn't dare to fight back, so he said: "Mr. Hui, there is a giant thief from Taihang Mountain sneaking into the city, we are searching all over the city, and someone saw him break into Mr.'s mansion just now, so ......." ”

The old man looked up at Liu Yi violently, the two eyes were full of light, Liu Yi was weak by him, but he couldn't retreat, so he stood there and endured it, and the cold sweat on his body came down.

"Since someone under the steward has seen it, let's send someone to find it." The old man looked at Liu Yi for a while, retracted his gaze, said lightly, and then said to the old soldier behind him: "Wang Cheng, you take them for a walk, the old man is here and waiting for the result." The old army glanced at Liu Yi viciously, and without saying a word, he walked inside, Liu Yi saluted the old man, and then followed the old army and went towards the mansion.

As soon as Liu Yi entered, another team of people came over, and the first one was Liu Yu's confidant Wang Qiong, but Liu Yu knew that Liu Yi had searched this Zhang Xiaochun's house, and he was afraid that something would happen, so he ordered Wang Qiong to come and appease Zhang Xiaochun.

Wang Qiong dismounted in front of Zhang's mansion, came over with a smile on his face, saluted Zhang Xiaochun, and said: "Old gentleman, the king is only afraid that Liu Yi will be rude, so he specially ordered the officials to come over, if there is anything wrong, Mr. just speak." ”

Zhang Xiaochun waved his hand and said: "Don't be polite, the old man is dying of old age, outsiders save a face, the old man will continue, if not, the old man doesn't have to take it to heart." ”

Wang Qiong smiled bitterly and said helplessly: "Old man, you are the first person on the fourth prince's table, how dare outsiders be rude to you." ”

This Zhang Xiaochun was originally a Hedong Xuanfu envoy, who was ordered to know Taiyuan, and Wang Yu, the deputy head of Taiyuan soldiers and horses, held on to Taiyuan, refused to hand over to Jinbang, and Wushu sent troops to attack day and night, and finally the city was lost, Wang Yu jumped into the moat, life and death were gone, Zhang Xiaochun was caught by the Jin army, sent to the Northern Desert Royal Court, and detained there.

Wushu is the most loyal minister, Zhang Xiaochun's behavior of guarding Taiyuan has been respected by Wushu, and after the two people intersected, Zhang Xiaochun's knowledge made Wushu overwhelmed, so he served him with a teacher, but Zhang Xiaochun did not seek death like Wang Yu, but he also refused to bend his knees to reduce gold, and often offended the princes and ministers of Jinbang with words in the north, those people were all rude and unliterate, although they were afraid of the face of Wushu, but once they were angered by Zhang Xiaochun, they would still draw their swords against each other, Zhang Xiaochun was almost killed several times, Wushu was only afraid that when he was not there, he could not protect Zhang Xiaochun, and when he had a headache, Liu Yu asked the emperor to send an edict to Beibang, and as soon as Wushu was clever, he asked Hami Chi to escort Zhang Xiaochun to the Daimyo's mansion, and put forward the request that Liu Yu be the emperor and Zhang Xiaochun was the prime minister, Liu Yu was looking forward to Wushu helping him give him good words in front of Jin Taizong, so that he could become the emperor, so he didn't dare to refuse, so he offered Zhang Xiaochun, half of whom he didn't dare to anger him, but he was afraid that he would crook his mouth in front of Wushu, so that the emperor here would not be able to do it, So when he heard that Liu Yi went to search Zhang Xiaochun's mansion, he immediately sent Wang Qiong over to appease him.

Zhang Xiaochun didn't care about Wang Qiong and didn't pay attention to anything, just squinted his eyes and sat there, Wang Qiong talked about it for a while, and in the end there was really nothing to do, so he had to stop, just standing there with Zhang Xiaochun, waiting for Liu Yi's news.

Zhang Xiaochun's mansion was picked by himself, and it was not too big, but the old army that led Liu Yi and them to search the house was too slow, and Liu Yi and they didn't dare to lose the old army to search by themselves, so they swayed slowly all the way, until the chicken crowed and the five drums, which was considered to be the end of the search, but not Mu Hong, except for the two cooks under the stove, there was not a single ghost, but a few rats were searched.

Liu Yi was furious in his heart, so he pulled the commander who saw Mu Hong enter the Zhang Mansion, and asked, "Did you really see Mu Hong come in?" ”

The ruler swore an oath and shouted, "How dare people be in this matter?" ”

Liu Yi pointed to those rooms and said, "Then look at it, where is there anyone here?" ”

The Commander's mouth moved a few times, and finally he pointed to the roof and said, "That...... Then Mu Hong can go to the room, isn't he going to the room? ”

Liu Yi looked towards the roof, and couldn't help but have a headache, although this mansion is not big, but there are dozens of houses, which have to take the ladder to find people one by one, but it takes a lot of work, and here they are looking for this, then Mu Hong is looking for an opportunity to sneak down, but he still can't find it.

Liu Yizheng didn't know what to do, when he saw Zhang Xiaochun accompanied by Wang Qiong, he hurriedly stepped forward to give a salute, and Zhang Xiaochun said: "Has the manager ever found someone?" ”

Liu Yi smiled bitterly and said, "I've searched for it here, but I haven't found it yet." ”

Zhang Xiaochun said lightly: "Listening to the meaning of the manager, I want to look for other places, and if I don't find it, just look for it." ”

Liu Yi looked at the roof, and just as he was about to speak, Wang Qiong on the side forked his mouth and said: "Since there is none, then forget it, maybe the thief fled to another place, the manager should find it in another place." He lost a look at Liu Yi.

Although Liu Yi was puzzled, he still followed Wang Qiong, confessed to Zhang Xiaochun, and then withdrew from Zhang's mansion.

As soon as he left Zhang's Mansion, Liu Yi immediately said to Wang Qiong: "Brother Wang, why did you let go of that Mu Hong?" ”

Wang Qiong smiled faintly and said: "I guessed before I came that you couldn't find anyone, even if this house is again, as long as this Mu Hong is a well-behaved person, Zhang Xiaochun is trying to hide people, where can you hide, you just turn Zhang Zhai upside down, and you may not be able to find out people." ”

Wang Qiong paused here, and then approached Liu Yidao: "We are wasting our time here, why don't we secretly keep an eye on Zhang Xiaochun's mansion, he can't leave that person in the mansion for a lifetime, right?" Inevitably, we have to find a way to send people away, as long as they move, we will ask the Kazakh military division to rob him, as long as the people are searched out in front of the Kazakh military division, I don't believe that the Kazakh military division can still protect him, and then he will not only have to bear the charge of secretly harboring thieves, but he is afraid that he will not be able to do it. ”

Liu Yu originally promised the position of prime minister to Wang Qiong, but Zhang Xiaochun surrendered and snatched this phase away, Wang Qiong was naturally jealous, but there was no way, so he kept holding back, now that he has this opportunity to get it, how can Wang Qiong let it go, Liu Yi naturally knows Wang Qiong's thoughts, it just so happens that he doesn't have a good impression of Zhang Xiaochun, and at the same time feels that Wang Qiong's method can also be used, so he nodded and agreed, and secretly sent someone to stare at Zhang Xiaochun's mansion, waiting for Mu Hong to come out.

After Zhang Xiaochun's master and servant sent Liu Yi and them away, they returned to the study, and the old soldier Wang Cheng first checked inside and outside the house, and then went to stand outside the door, but Zhang Xiaochun walked to the desk, reached out and grabbed the pen stand on the table, and lifted it hard, and with a bang, the floor tiles in front of the desk sank, revealing a dark hole.

Zhang Xiaochun sat down at the desk, and after waiting for a while, Mu Hong slowly walked up from below.

When he arrived at the desk, Mu Hong bowed to Zhang Xiaochun and said, "Thank you, Lord Xuanfu!" ”

Zhang Xiaochun smiled bitterly and said: "Mu Tixia, you and I were both killing the enemy in Taiyuan that day, at that time you called me a Xuanfu envoy, now you are an anti-Jin righteous man, but I am a traitor who has changed the moderation, and the name of this Xuanfu envoy is still just that." "It turned out that Mu Hong also served in the official army, and he was a governor in Taiyuan Mansion, and Taiyuan Mansion fell, and he hated the Song Dynasty Emperor for doing nothing, so he went to Taihang Mountain and fell into the grass.

The two of them didn't know what to do, standing there was not embarrassed or embarrassed, and after waiting for a while, Zhang Xiaochun got up and said, "You just hide here first, and I'll find a way to send you out in a few days." After getting up to leave, Mu Hong hurriedly said, "My lord, Mu Hong can't stay here." ”

Zhang Xiaochun frowned slightly and said: "I know you have good martial arts, but there are nearly 100,000 military horses in this famous mansion, how can you go out alone." ”

Mu Hong smiled bitterly and said: "People are not so arrogant, dare to compete with the 100,000 military horses of the Daimyo Mansion, but the cousin Yan Qi of the people, when the Jin soldiers passed by the Daimyo Mansion a few years ago, he had stolen an important person out of their hands, and after he was arrested by Liu Yu, this person was trapped in the Yan family, and if it was delayed, I was afraid that she would starve to death if she had no food." ”

Zhang Xiaochun said with some consternation: "I just thought that Yan Qi was killed, but it turned out to be true!" Who did he rescue? Why haven't I heard about Jinbang, who did I lose? ”

Mu Hong pondered for a moment and said, "It's Emperor Roufu." ”
