Volume 4 The Boat Goes Against the Tide Chapter 185 The City is Full of Rumors

In the east of the city, Sun Tu, the backbone of the city, has not been there for two days, and the subordinates have been uneasy, not to mention patrolling the streets according to the previous regulations, even these people who stay in the house always seem to be distracted, and they don't know what to do.

At this time, a person suddenly rushed into the second hall with a nervous expression, looked at Shen Liang and the others who were sitting uncertainly, and said: "Shen Dutou, now someone in the city is suddenly rumoring, saying that Sun Dutou is him...... He ...... said, but he was a little embarrassed, and he didn't know how to say it.

"What happened in Chuandutou?" Shen Liang, Cui Luoshang and the others asked urgently almost in unison. Since they knew that Sun Tu was sent to the Liao embassy by the Kaifeng Mansion, there was no news of him, and their hearts were always carried out, for fear that he would really be harmed by the Liao.

"They said that Sun Dutou had been persuaded by the Liao people to become an official under the Liao people." After saying this, this person couldn't help but breathe a big sigh of relief, looking relieved, but he didn't dare to make contact with the few people present.

The expressions of everyone in the hall suddenly changed, and all of them showed expressions of disbelief, Cui Luoshang took the lead in shaking his head and said loudly: "This is impossible, Sun Dutou has always been honest and selfless, how could he betray the court?" And now that he is still in Tokyo, how dare he make such a big rebellious act? ”

Shen Liang also nodded in agreement: "Yes, I also believe that Sun Dutou is not such a person, this must be a discordant plan made by the Liao people, we must not believe it!" ”

Just when several people opened their mouths to express their belief in Sun Tu, a slightly hesitant voice suddenly came out: "But I heard that Fu Yin has decided to remove the head of the capital because of the injury to the Liao envoy, will he ...... in a hurry?"

These words immediately reminded everyone of Xue Tong's performance that day when he said that he wanted to dismiss Sun Tu's official and remove Sun Tu from his post outside the public security station, is this a decision made by Han Fuyin? If this is the case, the future will be ruined, and the resentment in his heart will really be moved by a few words from the Liao people.

"But why did the Liao people think of recruiting Sun Dutou? He's not a high-ranking official of my Great Song Dynasty, and there's nothing that would interest them. Cui Luoshang still said with some suspicion.

Of course, they couldn't come up with this answer, and finally Shen Liang said: "Yes or no, we can know at a glance." If Dutou has really been subdued by them, then Miss Ya'er must have also been picked up by the Liao, so let's go over and see what is going on. So saying, he got up and walked out. The others hesitated slightly, but they all followed.

When these servants arrived at Sun Tu's residence, they saw the scene of people going to the empty courtyard. Not only Sun Tu and Ya'er are no longer there, but even some of the clothes they were carrying have been taken away. Seeing this scene, everyone's faces changed even more, even if they believed that Sun Tu would not betray the Great Song Dynasty, they all began to doubt his decision at this time.

After all, as close subordinates who accompanied Sun Tu all the way, they clearly knew how the imperial court and those bosses treated their own heads. If it weren't for his outstanding ability, clever means, and Tong Guan's big backer, I'm afraid he would have died many times in the past six months. And Sun Tu has made a lot of contributions to the imperial court, but he has hardly received any rewards, that is, they all feel that it is a little unfair, not to mention Sun Tu as a party.

Could it be that Dutou was really rebelled by the Liao people because he was cold? In the midst of looking at each other, everyone involuntarily had such an idea in their hearts, but no one dared to say the words of this speculation.

Compared with these subordinates who had a close relationship with Sun Tu, the people in the city had a lot less worries. So when the matter spread, many people began to scold Sun Tu for being ungrateful, thinking that such a traitor to the Great Song Dynasty should be arrested and cut with a thousand knives in order to relieve the hatred in their hearts.

"I have long seen that this Sun Tu is not a good person. If you think about his methods, he really leaves no room for anything, whether it is dealing with people in the gang or against those dignitaries, without the slightest hesitation. Do you think such a person will know how to be polite and honest? No! Since he doesn't even have this bit of character, it is normal to invest in the Liao people's account to find a better background at this time. ”

"Brother Tai is right, in fact, I have long seen that Sun Tu is not a good thing. You may have forgotten that just half a year ago, when Sun Tucai was selected by the imperial court to be an official, he had already clashed with many scholars in the Fan Tower. If he hadn't been arrogant and excessive, how could he have come into conflict with those who had read the books of the sages? ”

"I also remember this, and it was called rampant. It is reasonable for someone like this to suddenly betray my Da Song at this time! ”

Teahouses, wine shops, streets and alleys, people kept saying bad things about Sun Tu, and at the same time constantly confirmed to people that Sun Tu had taken refuge in the Liao people, which naturally aroused the hatred of more people.

Of course, there are also some people who have doubts about the authenticity of this matter: "Now that the imperial court has not proved this matter, how can we so casually determine that Sun Dutou has defected to the Liao?" Don't forget, he just took the Liao people and beat the Liao people before this. ”

"This matter has greatly damaged the face of the imperial court, how can they admit it? Moreover, Sun Tu is just a small capital, and the imperial court will not take his going or staying as a matter of returning to him at all. ”

And who knows if the previous incident was a play he played in order to get close to the Liao people. Maybe he had already had a relationship with the Liao people early on, so he would take this opportunity to enter the Liao embassy to ensure his own safety. ”

Regardless of whether these statements are common sense or not, anyway, as various theories fly all over the city, everyone still quickly accepts the fact that Sun Tu has betrayed the Great Song Dynasty and determines that he will become a sinner of the Great Song Dynasty.

When this statement finally reached the ears of Lu Zhishen, who had been busy taking care of the vegetable garden chores recently, he immediately snorted: "How can San Lang be such a person? You are talking nonsense, the Sprinkle family can guarantee with his own life, he must have stayed with Liaogou because of some changes. ”

"Master, now that there are rumors outside that there are noses and eyes, how can there be a mistake? And if Sun Dutou really has any troubles, he should come forward to defend himself at this time. A disciple of Lu Zhishen who came with the news, the public security officer said with some puzzlement: "Also, even Miss Ya'er was picked up by him, don't you have the heart to join the Liao?" ”

Lu Zhishen took the stoneware bowl in his hand and drank the wine in one gulp, then opened his hand to wipe the wine stains on his beard and said, "If you can say it, you won't be distressed." And who knows whether Ya'er was picked up by San Lang or deliberately hidden by the Liao. If you want to sprinkle the family, I am afraid this is a conspiracy of those Liao dogs, in order to force San Lang to comply. ”

"This ...... Although Dutou is not small, but this is too unbelievable, will the Liao people make such arrangements for him? The person on the other side was a little unconvinced.

"You don't know San Lang, but the Sprinkle family has had a deep conversation with him. Let's put it this way, although he is not a man of heaven and earth, but in terms of ability, none of the so-called generals in Bianliang City can compare to him. Maybe there are people who know the goods in Liaogou, and when they see this at a glance, they will use this mind to make San Lang have no way back! Lu Zhishen's face became more and more solemn as he spoke: "No, San Lang is in trouble now, I, as an elder brother, must not stand idly by, I have to find a way to meet him." ”

Saying that, Lu Zhishen ignored his disciples anymore, and kept walking back and forth in the courtyard, but he couldn't come up with a good idea for a while, after all, Sun Tu was in the Liao Embassy, and the guards there were not something he could say he could enter.

At this time, Cheng Yayu, a newly recruited disciple who had been standing silently on the side, suddenly spoke: "Master, I know there is a way to enter that embassy. ”

"What can you do with a little doll?" Lu Zhishen said disapprerovingly.

"I ...... Before I met Master, I had a meal near the embassy over there, and I saw that there were often food trucks coming in and out of the back door, so if I could ...... opportunity."

Lu Zhishen understood as soon as he heard it, and immediately touched his bald head with some joy: "This is an idea, but it's too dazzling to sprinkle the family......

"Then the disciple will go for you. I'm young, and those Liao people may not pay attention to me. ”

"Okay, you will arrange it early tomorrow morning, the Sprinkle family doesn't believe that San Lang will really forget his ancestors and follow Liaogou!" Lu Zhishen made a decision immediately. left a sentence in his heart, if he really dares to do this, the Sprinkle family will personally eliminate the harm for the Great Song Dynasty!

In addition to Lu Zhishen, who also didn't believe that Sun Tu would take refuge in the Liao, there was also Tong Guan who had just gotten the news, and he was more confident in Sun Tu, and after hearing Fang Qian's report, he sneered disdainfully: "With Sun Qianli's mind, even if he really wants to take refuge in the Liao people, he will not choose to be here and now." And with the shrewdness of the Liao people, if it really came to pass, how could they let the rumors spread all over the city in just two days? This must be that they are pushing everything behind the scenes, in order to cut off the back road of Sun Tu. ”

Fang Qian also agreed: "Actually, Xia Guan also feels that this matter is too strange, Sun Qianli obviously has a bright future, how could he make such an unwise choice." After all, even if he really went to Liao, it was impossible for him to be reused by the Liao people as he defected to the Song people. Xia Guan is just worried about how he will solve this game now, even if the Liao people don't kill him, when he comes out, he will be pointed at. ”

Tong Guan frowned at this time: "Yes, even the old man can't see through this point." But since he is in the game, he must break the game if he wants to protect himself. Let's just wait and see. ”
