Chen Zheng nodded, he was still very satisfied with the effect of this trebuchet.

The sun has set in the west, and it is the best time to enjoy the tenth view of Dongyang County - the afterglow of the trestle bridge.

The three of them came to the Jiuqu Bay trestle bridge and enjoyed the last beautiful scenery before sunset, which was very pleasant.

Li Shuang looked a little tired, twisted his waist, and said, "I'm really tired today, I have to rest well at night." ”

Chen Zheng glanced at Li Shuang and said, "It seems that Brother Li has done a lot of work, obviously I worked hard to make a trebuchet, why are you tired?" ”

Li Shuang smiled and said: "Brother Chen's words are bad, people are different from others, your physical strength is better than below, this is a well-known thing, the so-called capable people work hard, this is the truth." ”

"You have a lot of crooked reasoning." Chen Zheng was speechless.

Xiao Zan stood beside the two of them and said, "Brother Li's body is really not good, you have to learn from me and Brother Chen, exercise more, your physical strength can't keep up at this critical moment, but it's very fatal." ”

Xiao Zan's words, Li Shuang didn't dare not listen, and hurriedly responded: "Brother Xiao is right, from tomorrow, I will exercise my body and refine my body well, and I must not drag down Brother Xiao and Brother Chen at a critical moment." ”

Xiao Zan nodded and said, "That's just like words." Brother Chen, don't worry about Brother Li. ”

Chen Zheng waved his hand and said, "How can I worry about Brother Li, it's just that you two have to tell me before you disappear in the future, otherwise, if something happens, I won't be able to explain it." ”

"Don't worry, it'll be fine, Yu Qi is secretly protecting us." Xiao Zan said with relief.

However, Xiao Zan's words of comfort to Chen Zheng made Chen Zheng feel uncomfortable, could you have someone secretly protecting you, so you can not tell me when you leave?

Can't you hear the point of what I'm saying?

The three of them had a match, but they didn't have a match, and at this moment, the scribe Lu Desheng ran over.

"I went to the dock just now, Yao Xin said that you are on the side of the trestle, but I can be regarded as looking for you." Lu Desheng said.

Chen Zheng asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"The recruitment of the people has almost been done, and by noon tomorrow, it will almost be in place." Lu Desheng replied.

This time it was Chen Zheng's turn to be surprised, he had the impression that it was a very laborious thing to recruit people, and this scribe actually completed it in just one day?

"How did it go so well?" Chen Zheng asked his doubts.

Lu Desheng smiled slightly and said: "I'll tell them that this recruitment is to do things for Master Chen of the Red Pine Workshop, but I didn't expect that the enthusiasm of the big guys was very high, and the registration site was once crowded." ”

Chen Zheng smiled wryly and said, "Is it so exaggerated?" ”

Lu Desheng nodded very seriously and said, "There is no exaggeration, there was not enough officials to maintain order on the spot. ”

Chen Zheng didn't care if what Lu Desheng said was true or not, usually this person looked honest, but after going to Kyoto with him, Chen Zheng found that this person was sleek and very exquisite.

"Then there is a clerk of Laolu who will bring the recruited people here tomorrow and start working, after all, time is running out!" Chen Zheng instructed.

Lu Desheng nodded and said, "Don't worry, Master Chen." With you and our big guys doing it together, what kind of difficulty is it that can't get over? ”

Hearing this, Chen Zheng glanced at Xiao Zan next to him, and said, "Let's just contribute, mainly to listen to Brother Xiao's organization and scheduling." ”

Xiao Zan was actually a little unhappy when he heard Lu Desheng's words just now, but Chen Zheng's words made him a little embarrassed.

Xiao Zan knows in his heart that where will he organize the dispatch, if he is asked to find a way, he will definitely take the people of Dongyang County and fight with the pirates who came up!

But Xiao Zan also knew that those untrained people in the city and countryside could be the opponents of those fierce and vicious pirates?

Therefore, you can't count on him for this.

Fortunately, Chen Zheng was by his side and helped Xiao Zan with advice, which made him feel a little embarrassed.

Even if it is Li Shuang's strong wall Qingye, it is stronger than Xiao Zan's idea of fighting hard.

So, Xiao Zan looked very generous and waved his hand, and said: "Brother Chen is the first merit in this matter, and my son is not the one who grabs the merit, so you can rest assured and do things well." ”

Lu Desheng knew the identity of Prince Xiao Zan, and Xiao Zan's words were not only for Chen Zheng to hear, but also for him.

Xiao Zan's meaning is very clear, as long as this matter is done well, after a few days, the future bandits will be repulsed, then the time will be rewarded for meritorious deeds, and the prince will not rob the merits.

Lu Desheng bowed down and thanked him, and said, "Then I will thank Xiao Gongzi for those people who were recruited." ”

"Well, if you're okay, go back first." Xiao Zan nodded.

After Lu Desheng left, the sunset also fell behind the mountain, and it was going to be dark.

"Two, let's go back, if it's dark, it's not easy to walk at night." Chen Zhengdao.

So the three of them went back to the city, separated in turn, and returned to their homes.

Chen Zheng has not eaten since he ate the takeaway delivered by Juquande Restaurant at noon at the government office, and he has long been hungry.

Pushing the door in, Chen Zheng shouted into the house: "Lady, I'm back, is there still food at home?" I am hungry. ”

However, there was no response in the house, and Chen Zheng looked up to see that the room was dark and there was no light.

Chen Zheng frowned, has the lady learned to thrift? But their family is not short of money, and they can still afford the lamp oil money.

And in the past, when Chen Zheng returned late, the lights were lit in the house, waiting for him to come back.

Chen Zheng had a bad premonition in his heart, could it be that the lady was sick, tired, and too lazy to light the lamp?

After thinking about it, Chen Zheng felt that it was not for this reason, when the two of them had intimate exercise between husband and wife last night, his wife was still alive and well, and it was impossible to say that he was sick.

While thinking, he walked and soon came to the door of the house.

Chen Zheng put his ear to the door and listened carefully to the movement in the house, but he didn't hear anything unusual for a long time.

So, Chen Zheng pushed the door in, and when he entered, he would know.

There were a few clouds that obscured the moon tonight, and there was no moonlight, and it was pitch black in the house.

Chen Zheng groped his way to the table where the oil lamp was, and when it was lit, the whole room would be bright.

Turning his head to look at the bed, however, to Chen Zheng's disappointment, Yue Xiaorong was not lying on the bed.

However, this also shows that Yue Xiaorong is not sick.

Looking around, he didn't find anything unusual, and finally, Chen Zheng saw a letter on the table.

Unwrapping the envelope, Chen Zheng read it carefully under the lamp, and after reading the letter, Chen Zheng understood something.

The lady is gone!
