Chapter 162: Walking the Water
When Cheng Yunmo arrived, the person in charge of the affairs was already waiting to plead guilty: "This person is responsible for guarding this piece tonight, but I don't know where the spark came out, fortunately he found it in time, otherwise I am afraid it will cause a big disaster." ”
When the person in charge was talking, he didn't even dare to look at Cheng Yunmo's eyes.
Such a big event has happened, and the person in charge is ready to be scolded.
But since Cheng Yunmo came here, he has been extremely calm, as if what happened was not a big deal.
Only, hopefully, it won't be the calm before the storm.
Cheng Yunmo quietly looked at the people who were keeping vigil tonight, and said exceptionally calmly: "You are keeping vigil tonight?" ”
"Yes, villain." The soldiers on the night watch saluted.
Cheng Yunmo looked up and looked around, and said lightly: "Let's talk about it, how can there be open flames, I remember that open flames are strictly forbidden in grain and grass storage areas." ”
"If you return to the military division, the villain doesn't know. There was really no fire in the camp, and even our meals were prepared and brought over from elsewhere. ”
"So, the little one really doesn't know how to get back to an open flame." The soldier on the night watch said with a bitter face.
There was an impossible open flame, and it didn't burn much.
Everything seems to be deliberately manipulated, so there must be someone behind it.
But what is the purpose?
It's a lot of trouble to do something, but now I can't see what damage has been done.
People who do this can't be because they're bored, right?
"Intensify vigils from today, this kind of thing will not be allowed to happen again." Cheng Yunmo said in a deep voice.
"As for the people in charge of the vigil tonight, all of them will be controlled and interrogated one by one."
To be able to set fire in a camp, without colleagues, it is very difficult to cause alone.
But it's been so long, even if all the people are interrogated.
She doesn't necessarily have to interrogate the person she wants to triage.
Cheng Yunmo walked on the way back and unexpectedly saw that there was still a store that was still open.
In the middle of the night, it is rare to see shops that are still open at this time.
Cheng Yunmo looked at the shop with warm candlelight, and after such a toss, she no longer had any sleepiness at all.
Plus it's really cold outside.
Cheng Yunmo went into the only shop around that was still open, but found that there were still customers in the shop.
The black cloak appeared in the store, and it was still this kind of time.
No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a good person.
It's just that as soon as she entered, the shopkeeper said very enthusiastically: "You are Cheng Junshi, right?" ”
Cheng Yunmo was stunned: "How can you say that." ”
"The silver mask and the wooden folding fan have all become the status symbols of Cheng Junshi." The shopkeeper said with a smile.
Cheng Yunmo subconsciously touched the wooden folding fan on his waist and did not continue the topic.
Instead, she asked the boss to warm a pot of wine for her, after all, wine is a good thing to ward off the cold in Northern Xinjiang.
But considering that she still has something to do tomorrow, Cheng Yunmo only asked the other party to stabilize a pot of wine that is not easy to get drunk.
According to the shopkeeper, it is his own wine made from whole grains, and there are some goji berries, ginger and red dates in it.
It is not easy to get drunk, and it is good to ward off the cold.
It's also very good for the body.
Cheng Yunmo asked for a pot of such wine, and asked for a few dishes of appetizers.
After the boss warmed the wine, he brought it up: "The side dishes will have to wait a while." ”
Cheng Yunmo took the wine: "Okay, don't worry." ”
She wasn't in a hurry.
It's just that at the moment, this shop looks quite dangerous.
The only two guests were all wrapped up tightly.
It doesn't look like a good person.
If there are still people who have not slept at this time, they happen to pass by this tavern and just want to go in for a drink.
When I saw these two customers sitting in the store, I don't know if I would be too scared to come in.
Thinking about it, Cheng Yunmo laughed unconsciously.
"The girl seems to be in a good mood?"
Cheng Yunmo glanced up at the table in front of her, but the guest who was already sitting opposite her, who was also wearing a silver mask, shook his wine glass and said, "Yes, there is a problem?" ”
"No problem." The other party also seemed to smile lowly.
"Why did the girl come out at such a late hour? You are not afraid of danger. ”
"Do you think I'm dressed like a good person?" Cheng Yunmo smiled lightly.
"The girl is indeed a good person."
"Why?"
"Isn't it a good person that the military advisor can come to Northern Xinjiang after something like that happened to the Cheng family and the royal family?"
"Northern Xinjiang is Northern Xinjiang, since the Cheng family is responsible for guarding Northern Xinjiang, it must be done."
"It's not a good habit to be untrustworthy, Childe said, didn't he?"
"That's just as well."
"Did I see Childe somewhere?" Cheng Yunmo said with a smile.
"Girl, think about it?"
"Forget it." Cheng Yunmo took a sip of wine, took a chopstick dish and stuffed it into his mouth.
But because of this, he missed the pampering in the eyes of the other party.
Jing Mu looked at this scene and smiled lowly: "Doesn't the girl want to know about walking in the water tonight?" ”
"What's the water?" Cheng Yunmo became vigilant for a moment.
"Naturally, it's the reason why the military advisor came out tonight." Jing Mu smiled.
There is still a short distance between the military camp in the southeast where grain and grass are stored and the military camp of the defenders in northern Xinjiang, and it is impossible for Cheng Yunmo and others to appear here for no reason.
Cheng Yunmo looked at Jing Mu quietly: "What do you want to express?" ”
Fu made himself look relaxed, but in fact, he secretly said: "Don't you want to tell me that you put the fire, right?" ”
His appearance here in the middle of the night was very problematic in itself.
And here is not far from the southeastern barracks.
Cheng Yunmo looked at this shop carefully, and his eyes darkened, looking at the wine and food in front of him.
Maybe there's something wrong with this shop too.
Jing Mu took Cheng Yunmo's series of actions into his eyes, and poured himself a cup of tea: "Am I so bored?" ”
"There's nothing wrong with this shop."
"The boss just keeps the shop open day and night so that he doesn't let go of any customers, and his children are sick and need money urgently." Jing Mu said softly.
"And what do you mean?"
Cheng Yunmo is not bored enough to go, how does he know the store of this shop so well, is it a regular customer?
"On the way here, I met a very strange person, wearing clothes that look like those worn by soldiers in the barracks."
"Did you see who it was?"
"Nope."
There are some things that are said too much, which in itself is very suspicious.
And people are more confident in what they see with their eyes and what they find.
He only needs to throw a clue, and if he says more, it will add to the snake, but it will not achieve the effect he wants.
"Why are you helping me?"
"As I said, the military advisor is a good person." Jing Mu walked to Cheng Yunmo's side and said lightly.
"And it's worth it to help good people."
Jing Mu can also see it, she is afraid that she no longer remembers that she saved him when she was in the imperial capital.
Saved him who was still a child-pastor.
Never mind.
If you forget, forget it, Gongzi Mu is not a person who can intersect with Cheng Yunmo.
Jing Mu walked out of the tavern and gradually disappeared into the middle of the night.
Until the night when Cheng Yunmo couldn't see, Bugu asked very humbly: "Why did Gongzi go to see Cheng Junshi?" ”
How could he not know that this fire was set by his son-in-law himself.
He originally thought that his son-in-law would choose to cover up the past, but he didn't expect that his son-in-law would choose to meet Cheng Yunmo.
He originally stayed at home, and he didn't know that he would burn grain and grass at that time.
After he was going to burn, he needed someone he trusted the most to do something for him.
So when Bugu appeared here, Jing Mu was not surprised.
"You have to remember that the choice is in your own hands at all times." Jing Mu said lightly.
Since the matter has come out, Cheng Yunmo is bound to investigate.
Since he must investigate, why didn't he take the initiative and control the result in his hands.
He did this quietly, but this matter could not be explained to the outside world.
That's not easy for Cheng Yunmo to do.
And this explanation can't be him.
There must be a scapegoat.
The person he pointed out to Cheng Yunmo was very good, the Yu family.
not only took the blame for him, but also lost a jade family's eyeliner by his side, and let Cheng Yunmo have an explanation.
can also find something to do for Cheng Yunmo.
Killing four birds with one stone, even if you waste some thought when planting blame, it is worth it.
"Where did Cheng Yunmo who asked you to check go before he went to the house, and did he find out?"
"I found it, I went to the government office, and I saw Lord Liang." Not alone.
"Sure enough, it's suspicious."
Jing Mu sighed silently in his heart, no matter what, he couldn't let Cheng Yunmo check it out.
Cheng Yunmo stopped him, stopped her from checking him, and prevented the Yu family from knowing that Cheng Yunmo was already suspicious.
He also has to drag the Yu family, and the Yu family wants to kill him.
Jing Mu took a deep breath, took a breath in his hand, rubbed his hands and said, "Go back." ”
No matter how bad the situation is, life still has to go on.
There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and the boat is naturally straight to the bridge.
Although his body was already healed, after all, he was hit by Cheng Yunmo when he was half dead.
He looks like that, he gets better quickly, and it's hard to make people suspicious.
So after Jing Mu got better, he pretended to be sick and controlled his good time in the eyes of outsiders.
In this way, Jing Mu spent a few days in his room before going to the barracks.
When I arrived at the barracks, the first thing I did was to go to Cheng Yunmo's tent.
It's just that Cheng Yunmo is not there.
Jing Mu only learned after asking several people that a team of people who came to deliver grain and grass to Northern Xinjiang encountered robbers on the road, and the generals here couldn't leave.
Cheng Yunmo took a team of people to suppress the bandits.
Jing Mu's original words, as well as some temptations, were all temporarily useless at this moment.
Jing Mu silently returned to Cheng Yunmo's tent and cleaned up for Cheng Yunmo.
I went to get some milk tea again, put it in the stove and warm it, and waited for Cheng Yunmo to come back and drink it.
