Chapter Ninety-Six: The Conspiracy Comes
At this time, Zong Lu and Lou Yinyang came to resign.
said that Lou Yinyang had always felt that his talisman was not as powerful as before since he was sucked away by her brother-in-law last time.
And thinking about the demon binding spell in the house on that floor is not a taste in my heart, I want to go back and solve the matter completely.
Yun Sha nodded and let them go, and said that if the two of them had any difficulties, they must come and tell them.
Yun Sha sat in the empty courtyard, and there was always a strange feeling in his heart.
It seems that Xiao Yulin has really not come to her recently.
And her master, Ghost Claw, it stands to reason that he will never give up, but nothing has happened recently.
Today's sky is gloomy, a rainstorm is coming, and Yun Sha always feels that a conspiracy is coming.
Bao Fuzhong.
Today's Bao Xiangrate is a celebrity in front of the emperor, and the decoration of Bao Mansion is more gorgeous than before.
Bao Xiangshu and Cen Zhaoyang sat in the hall, it was the height of summer, the sky was gloomy, it was unusually hot, there was ice in the room, and the maid kept fanning it with a big fan, so that there was no heat in the room.
Cen Zhaoyang's dress was also more extravagant, and she looked at Bao Xiangshu with affection.
Although Bao Xiangshu thought that Cen Zhaoyang was not as delicate as before, he also pretended to be pampered for the sake of the big plan.
"In a few days, I will ask the emperor to persuade the emperor to send Cen Zhaohou to Xifeng Village to suppress bandits." Bao Xiangshu said, thinking that Cen Zhaohou was about to die, and his heart was very happy.
When Cen Zhaoyang heard this, he was puzzled: "Why is this all of a sudden? ”
Bao Xiangshu hugged Cen Zhaoyang, "Do you want to be the wife of the first general?" ”
Hearing this, Cen Zhaoyang already knew what Bao Xiangshu meant, but he still had some scruples in his heart.
Bao Xiangshu looked at her unbearable, and continued: "For so many years, my husband has been suppressed by Cen Zhaohou, despised by the emperor, and looked down upon by the people. As long as Cen Zhaohou is in one day, I can't eat, I can't sleep, and no day is really happy. ”
Cen Zhaoyang looked at Bao Xiangshu, saw that his eyes were full of tears, thinking that Bao Xiangshu had indeed suffered a lot of grievances over the years, and she and Cen Zhaohou were not close, so he nodded slowly, "Do what you want." ”
Bao Xiangshu's face was happy, and then said, "Please also ask Yang'er to do me a favor." Seeing Cen Zhaoyang nodding, he continued: "You have been to Cen Mansion a lot these days, and you have a good relationship with them. ”
Cen Zhaoyang frowned, "Why is this?" Do you want me to befriend them? Last time I went to Cen Mansion, I was directly invited out. ”
Bao Xiang said: "You go to Cen Mansion every day to smoke a spice, the spice is fine to ordinary people, but it will make Cen Zhaohou, who has a male Gu on his body, become suspicious and irritable, and when he fights with the bandits in Xifeng Village, as long as he takes a kind of fame and dissipation, he will go completely crazy and lose his judgment, at that time, isn't it easy for the bandits to kill him?" ”
"Good! The concubine only hopes that the day when Xianggong can become the first general! ”
Early the next morning, Cen Zhaoyang came to Cen Mansion.
Yun Sha sat in the pavilion with her, although he doubted that Cen Zhaoyang was uninvited, but he also received her politely.
Cen Zhaoyang smiled at Yun Xu, "Eldest sister is really envious of Sister Yun's flower-like appearance, this skin is so tender that she can pinch out water." ”
Yun Xue didn't know how to talk to her, so he had to smile awkwardly.
Cen Zhaoyang kept pulling her to chat, chatting about rouge and gouache, clothes and cloth, and other topics that Yun Sha didn't know how to answer.
She felt that this Cen Zhaoyang was really very strange today.
Obviously, she has never looked for her since she came back, how can she suddenly be so enthusiastic today.
"Eldest sister, please speak directly." Yun Sha couldn't bear it anymore, so he had to remind him.
Cen Zhaoyang helped his forehead and said, "Recently, the eldest sister has had nightmares in the middle of the night, and she always thinks of the scene when my mother was still playing with Hou Er when I was a child. Cen Zhaoyang said and pressed the moist corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, and continued, "Now in this world, Hou Er and I are close relatives, but we must not be separated!" ”
Hearing this, although Yun Sha was still suspicious of her, he offered her a cup of tea, and he was a little distracted when chatting with her.
After a while, Cen Zhaohou came back from the school, and he also felt strange when he heard that Cen Zhaoyang had come to chat with Yun Sha for a while.
When I went to the pavilion, I heard Cen Zhaoyang say that again, and only said: "This is very good." ”
After Cen Zhaoyang left, Cen Zhaohou always felt depressed, as if there was a fire in his heart.
Yun Sha saw that he was uncomfortable, and helped him diagnose his lower pulse, thinking that it was because the weather was hot and the Gu worms were restless, so it would be fine to drink two more cups of herbal tea.
When Cen Zhaohou heard this, he also nodded.
Ten days later, the emperor ordered Cen Zhaohou to go to Xifeng Village to suppress bandits.
This west wind village is in the western suburbs of the capital, the reason why such a large village can be tenaciously stationed at the foot of the imperial city is that the terrain of this west wind village is very treacherous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, the emperor in the time of the Qing Dynasty countless times have not succeeded, this west wind village is insidious and vicious, greedy for money and lustful, become a big disaster for the imperial court.
It's just that recently this west wind village has raged again, and all the rich merchants who pass through the village will not escape the harm.
Cen Zhaohou led the army to camp under the West Wind Village, and the Cen flag fluttering in the camp tent fluttered in the wind.
In the main account, Cen Zhaohou and his lieutenants carefully analyzed the strength and weakness of Xifeng Village.
Yun Sha was not allowed to follow, but he was still relieved that Cen Zhaohou insisted on coming with the army.
"General, this Xifeng Village is a small village, and our 20,000 soldiers directly led troops to encircle and suppress it, so why bother to drill the camp here?" A burly, bearded soldier said unconvinced.
Cen Zhaohou tapped the place where the grain and grass were stored in the West Wind Village with his hand, shook his head and said: "The terrain of this West Wind Village is really complicated, and there are many trees in the jungle. ”
The soldier thought that this was indeed the case, and asked, "What shall we do?" ”
"Tonight, let's find a few people to burn their grain and grass, and then surround this west wind village, are you still afraid that this bandit will not want to see us?"
All the soldiers said yes.
Yun Sha also dressed up as a soldier, smeared his face and blended in, and said in a rough voice: "General, I am willing to go to burn grain and grass." ”
When Cen Zhaohou saw Yun Sha like that, she secretly said that she didn't care about her own safety, "This matter is dangerous, you need to find someone with excellent skills." ”
"I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child, and most of the officers and soldiers in the army must be inferior to Yun." Yun Sha was very unconvinced.
As soon as Yun Sha's words fell, everyone in this tent was not convinced.
They were all iron-blooded men over eight feet tall, how could they make a newcomer look flat?
When even someone said they wanted to compete with her.
Another soldier stepped forward to Cen Zhaohou and proposed, "Why don't we have a competition, if whoever wins takes over this important task." ”
Cen Zhaohou only felt a headache, he knew Yun Sha's skills, and everyone in this account was afraid that no one was her opponent except him. He just wanted to open his mouth to refuse, but he couldn't stand the hearts of all the officers and men in the army to win. I had no choice but to agree.
They immediately set up a small school field outside the main tent, so as not to attract the attention of the bandits on the mountain, so they did not let the soldiers come to watch.
At this time, it was the scorching heat, Yun Sha seemed to be standing in the middle of the school field as if she didn't know the heat, her figure was very treacherous, those soldiers who fought on the battlefield all year round, and were used to fighting hard were difficult to touch her and were knocked to the ground by her.
As Cen Zhaohou expected, Yun Sha won.
He sighed, and had to agree to let her burn grain and grass tonight, and comforted the soldiers who were depressed but very convinced by Yun Sha, and asked them to go back to rest well, and then pulled Yun Sha into the main tent.
In the main tent, Cen Zhaohou wiped his sword by himself, and did not pay attention to Yunsha.
Yun Xuan knew that he was dissatisfied with his actions without consulting him, so he said softly: "I feel that the emperor suddenly ordered you to suppress the bandits, this matter is not simple, I just want to help you finish the matter quickly." ”
Cen Zhaohou sighed, "Yes, the emperor was thinking about Zhao'an before, but I heard that it was the emperor's new favorite, Concubine Zhenniang, who said that Bao Xiangshu was also playing tricks." ”
He looked at Yun Sha again: "Since this is the case, I dare not let you go." ”
Yun Sha smiled at him with relief, "But I am indeed the best in this army, not to mention that my figure is not as eye-catching as yours, and I have a body of poison kung fu, so I don't have to worry." ”
When Cen Zhaohou heard this, he had to go.
Recently, his heart has become more and more restless, and there is always a fire running around in his heart, but it is not a disease, so he has to secretly suppress it and not mention it, for fear that Yunsha will worry about him again.
At this time, Ghost Claw was in the woods no more than a hundred meters away from the camp tent, he was hidden in the dense forest in black clothes, and his eyes exposed under the cloak were full of resentment, "Cen Zhaohou, this time I want to see with my own eyes that your life is better than death!" ”
Late at night, the West Wind Village stands in the mountains and forests, and the big "West Wind Village" three words at the entrance of the village are more open and dancing in the night.
The clouds are light, and they run through the layers of mountains and forests towards the west wind village.
The place where the grain and grass are placed in the west wind village is in the center of the whole village, and next to it is the house of the owner of the village.
At night, there are patrols everywhere in the West Wind Village, but the houses in the village are pitch black.
Yun Sha first observed the patterns of the people patrolling the village, and then carefully put them down with poison one by one.
Soon, the village was deserted.
In the main house of the village, Li Zhuang, the leader of Xifeng Village, was sleeping soundly with her tenth concubine in his arms, when a black shadow swept through the window and woke him up with a heavy stone.
Li Zhuang woke up from his sleep, touched his forehead and was about to get angry, when he suddenly smelled some smoke.
Looking again, there was a fire not far away where the grain and grass were put up.
Li Zhuangqiang was shocked, got up and kicked the waiter outside the door, and asked him to hurry up and wake up everyone in the village, and after a while, the village became a pot of porridge.
By the time Li Zhuang stood in front of the originally piled up mountains of grain and grass, there was not much left.
Li Zhuang was extremely angry, and whipped at the subordinate standing aside, and roared angrily: "Go and find it, be sure to find this damn wretch." ”
After setting the fire, Yunsha was about to hurry up and walk down the mountain when he was suddenly blocked by a man in black.
Yun Xu raised his eyes and saw that this person was Si Juexi, who had not been seen for many days.
Yun was startled and took a few steps back to make a defensive state.
