"I don't know what the quiet girl is doing at the moment......

In the room in the Governor's Office, Zhao Yu sat on the chair with his hands on his pillows, and inadvertently thought of Jingnu again.

It's no wonder that he thinks about it, after all, since the time when he was martyred by the Zhao clan in Luyang, Jing Nu has been following him without leaving his body, and when he barely left his body, this more than seven years of companionship has made Zhao Yu accustomed to Jing Nu's following, so that at this moment, Jing Nu is not around, and he feels uncomfortable.

However, he also understands that as the two of them gradually grow up, he always has to let Jingnu do some things, for example, gradually get used to becoming the mistress of his Zhao Yu's family - you must pay attention to the right person when you get married? He didn't care about that.

But......

"There's no Jingnu by her side, so it's still a little stuffy."

Zhao Yu thought to himself.

At this moment, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the house, and immediately, Wei Shi Hanhe walked into the house quickly with a look on his face, and said with a fist in his fist: "Du Wei, something is wrong, I just received an urgent 400 miles from Chen County, and Chen County has been captured by Chen Miao, the rebel commander who claims to be the 'Jiangxia Righteous Master'. ”

As he spoke, he hurriedly handed a piece of silk cloth in his hand to Zhao Yu.

Originally, it would be Jingnu or He Shun who took the silk cloth from Han He's hands and handed it over to Zhao Yu, but at the moment, Jingnu and He Shun were not in the room, and there was only Niu Heng, a big reckless man, in the room, so Han He waited for a long time with both hands on the silk cloth.

“……”

Zhao Yu turned his head to look at Niu Heng, and seeing that the latter had no reaction, he shook his head secretly, and beckoned Han He: "Give it to me directly." ”

"Huh?"

Han He was stunned for a moment, took two steps forward and respectfully handed the silk cloth to Zhao Yu, then looked left and right, and asked curiously, "Are that lady and He Weichang not here today?" ”

The lady he vaguely referred to in his mouth was obviously referring to the quiet girl.

I have to say that as Zhao Yu gradually sat firmly in the position of Lieutenant of Yingchuan, the attention of the Lieutenant and the outside world to him as Lieutenant Zhou naturally increased.

Many people began to be curious about Zhao Yu, for example, curious about how serious the 'burn' marks on Zhao Yu's face were, so that they needed to cover it with a mask all day long;

If it weren't for the fear that this Captain Zhou was once a vicious bandit leader, many people in Xuchang City had not yet figured out the character of this Captain Zhou, and I believe that there would definitely be an endless stream of people who came to say goodbye.

After all, Zhao Yu gave the outside world the impression that he was 'less than thirty' - the lieutenant of a county who was less than thirty years old, this is quite an outstanding talent, if it weren't for the assistance of the rebels, Zhao Yu would have had no chance to sit in this position.

Therefore, even Li Junshou thought that the future of this lieutenant under him was limitless, if it weren't for the 'burn' rumors deliberately spread by Zhao Yu, that Li Junshou would have the heart to marry his only daughter.

The dignified county guards all have the intention to use marriage to envelop Zhao Yu, let me ask tens of thousands of families in Xuchang City, who doesn't want to form a family with this Zhou Duwei?

However, the Lieutenant knew that this Captain Zhou actually had a family, and his family was the lady who wore the same mask who had been with the Captain during this time.

This lady is amazing, although she looks silent at first glance on weekdays, but she dares to raise her sword to kill people - at least in the defense of the city a few days ago, Han He had seen that lady carrying a sword to kill the enemy with this Zhou Duwei, and it seemed that her swordsmanship was very exquisite.

"Ahh

Zhao Yu responded and explained casually: "I asked her to take care of the mansion with He Shun......"

"Oh."

Han He suddenly realized, and at the same time, he also affirmed his guess in his heart.

That lady is indeed the wife of this Zhou Duwei.

He smiled and complimented: "I believe that Madame will be able to take care of the mansion." ”

"Huh."

Zhao Yu smiled, and then looked at the contents of the silk cloth in his hand with a straight expression.

According to the content on the silk cloth, Chen County was unable to block the attack of the Jiangxia Yishi Qu Shuai Chen Xuan, and several counties such as Chen County, Xinping, and Yangxia fell one after another.

Subsequently, the defeated army of Chenjun was divided into two groups, one led by the king of the county, and retreated towards Chenliu County; The other was led by the county lieutenant Han Shuang, and retreated to Fule.

And this letter was sent to Yingchuan County by Han Shuang, the governor of Chen County, hoping that Yingchuan County could send troops to help.

『…… actually retreated to Fule County, then this Han Shuang is finished, didn't he just bump into Xiang Xuan, Zhou Gong and others?"

Recalling the location of Fule County in his mind, Zhao Yu couldn't help but feel some sympathy for that Han Duwei.

The reason is very simple, to the east of Yanling County is Fugou County, and Fugou County is next door, that is, Fule County, which belongs to Chen County, so there is no doubt that Xiang Xuan, Zhou Gong and others who marched east a while ago are most likely colliding with the Chen County Lieutenant at this moment.

One Xiang Xuan, plus another Zhou Gong, Zhao Yu felt that he was afraid that he would have to mourn for that Han Duwei in advance.

After thinking for a moment, Zhao Yu asked Han He, "Does Li Junshou know about this?" ”

Han He replied, "This letter was sent by the county guard, and the officials who wanted to come to the county guard have reported it to the county guard. ”

"Hmm."

Zhao Yu nodded slightly: "Okay, you can go and get busy first." ”

"Retire from your duties."

Seeing Han He bow and retreat, Zhao Yu put the silk cloth in his hand on the table, crossed his arms and thought about it.

Of course, he wasn't thinking about sending troops to aid Chenjun, after all, first, he didn't want to interfere with the rebels' strategy of 'meeting Liang County', and second, there was still a large area occupied by the rebels between Xuchang and Chenjun, which seriously hindered the connection between Yingchuan County and Chenjun.

Considering that the autumn harvest is approaching, Zhao Yu really doesn't want to cause more trouble.

The only thing he has in mind at the moment is to continue to maintain a 'tacit understanding' with the rebels in Yingchuan County: he Xuchang will not send troops to attack Yanling, Linying and other counties for the time being, and the rebels will no longer invade Xuchang, Kunyang and other counties, at least until the autumn harvest, the two sides must maintain the status quo.

As for after the autumn harvest, then we will make plans then.

In Zhao Yu's opinion, nearly two months should be enough for Chen Xuan, Xiang Xuan, Zhou Gong and others to capture Chenliu County and advance the front all the way to Liang County, so he only needs to take care of the affairs in Yingchuan County during this time, and then wait and see what happens.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yu relaxed a little and stretched his waist.

In the past, he would have put a pair of gentle hands on his shoulders and kneaded them gently, but today......

"Sure enough, I'm still not used to it."

Seeing that there was no familiar figure on the side, Zhao Yu felt unaccustomed again.

"I don't know what this person's quiet girl is doing?"

Zhao Yu couldn't help but think secretly.

At the same time, in the main hall of the north house in the inner courtyard of the Duwei Zhou Mansion, He Shunzheng presented a very ordinary wooden box in front of Jing Nu.

Once, He Shun also followed Niu Heng to call Jingnu 'Ah Jing', after all, Jingnu is also a member of the Black Tiger Village, and is regarded as a sister by many people in the cottage, but now, this situation has changed, He Shun respectfully hugged his fists and greeted: "Madam." ”

Of course, He Shun didn't think much of this, after all, he had long known that there would be such a day, and their young and outstanding big leader would only be one woman, Jingnu, and the latter would naturally become the main room.

The only thing that surprised him was that Jingnu did not become the 'Lady Chief' first, but the 'Lady Captain' first—of course, this kind of accident was not a bad thing.

On the other hand, Jing Nu is faintly unnatural.

After all, He Shun is one of the few people who is quite close to Zhao Yu and Jingnu, and he is solemnly called Mrs., she will naturally have an unaccustomed feeling, but fortunately, she is wearing that mask on her face, and the others next to her can't see any clues.

For example, the maid Bi'er, who was standing beside her at the moment, blinking her eyes and looking curiously at the wooden box.

"Chief Ho, what is this?"

Following Zhou's posture and tone back then, Jingnu asked calmly.

He Shun clasped his fists and replied: "I don't know who put it at the door of the mansion, it was picked up by the brothers, and the lowly post has been checked, and there is only a bag of money and a piece of paper in the box." ”

As he spoke, he opened the wooden box, and sure enough, there was only a bag of copper coins and a piece of paper in the box.

"Give me that piece of paper." The Silent Girl commanded.

Although the little girl named Bi'er had a somewhat frizzy personality, she was really discerning, and when she heard her wife's command, she hurriedly stepped forward to take the paper from He Shun's hand and respectfully handed it to Jingnu.

Jing Nu glanced at the words on the paper, but saw that there was only one line written on it: the account book was buried outside the account room, under the third tree from the right.

“……”

After pondering for a while, Jingnu roughly understood what was going on, and asked He Shun: "He Shun, have you seen it?" ”

He Shun followed Niu Heng for a long time, perhaps also contaminated with the former's naivety, and smiled when he heard this, with a little embarrassment in his smile.

As soon as she saw his expression, Jingnu understood: It must be He Shun who is illiterate.

This is not surprising, now there are thousands of people up and down his Black Tiger Village, and there are few who are literate.

Knowing it in her heart, she relieved He Shun and said: "Someone borrowed this piece of paper to tell me that the original account book in this mansion is buried under the third tree from the right outside the account room......"

He Shunru, who had avoided being embarrassed, was relieved, and immediately ordered several black tigers behind him: "Did you hear clearly?" Go dig up the books. ”

"Yes." The two black tigers clenched their fists and left.

After a while, the two Black Tigers went and returned, holding a wooden box full of dirt in their arms.

He Shun opened it and took a look, and sure enough, he found that it was filled with account books.

"This ...... Who will bury the books there? Who told us? He said with a look of surprise.

Hearing this, Jing Nu said lightly: "Maybe it was done by the original bookkeeper of this mansion." …… It is believed that after Cao Suo defected to the enemy and rebelled, the servants in the palace were also panicked, and according to the officials of the county guard, many domestic servants in the palace secretly stole the property in the house and fled the ...... that day."

She turned to look at Bi'er and asked, "Is that so?" ”

“…… Be. ”

The little girl Bi'er nodded timidly, but she waved her hand again and again and said, "Madam, the slave didn't take it." ”

"I know."

Jingnu nodded in relief, and then continued to explain to He Shun: "And among them, it may include the gentleman who also has an account room. It is better to burn the books of accounts for stealing the property of the lord's house, but the gentleman who believed that he was afraid of being held responsible, so he hid the books, and now, when he learned that my husband had become the owner of the mansion, that or those of the bookkeepers were afraid, fearing that my husband would pursue the matter, returned the stolen goods, and told me where the account books were......"

"I see."

He Shun and several black tigers behind him suddenly realized.

During this period, He Shun glanced at Jingnu in surprise.

At this time, he realized that the quiet girl who used to be inconspicuous also had this wisdom.
