Chapter 18: Undercurrents are surging

"I'm not sure, I'm afraid I'll have to let Ping'er tell you this." Geng Xiaofan is really not sure.

"Who knows if she can find Ping'er, she has no relatives, I really don't know where she will go." Liu Fei'er thought about this girl who had been with her for several years, and she still couldn't believe it.

"Will find out. Maybe she's desperate and she'll come back. "Geng Xiaofan is guessing that a family member hurriedly ran in." Master, Miss, Ping'er is back. ”

"Brother Xiaofan, you are really a god! How do you know she'll be back? Liu Fei'er was excited.

"If you're desperate, just ask." Geng Xiaofan was actually very excited in his heart, he didn't expect his feeling to be so accurate.

A few people happened to be full, so they hurried to the front hall to "interrogate" Ping'er.

"Ping'er, you are guilty!" Gan Tingchang borrowed the lobby of Liu Lotian.

"I confess my sins, and I will admit them all! I just ask that the adults will catch the murderer and avenge my brother Dongzi. Ping'er knelt at the foot of the hall and trembled.

"Recruit from the truth!"

"I never thought I'd ever see Brother Dongzi again, I grew up with him. Yesterday, he appeared in the Shan Yu family group. He's going to take me away, he's going to take me home. Ping'er whimpered and began to talk about yesterday's incident.

"Ping'er, you've been with me for three years, you want to go home, can I not let you go? How can you ......" Liu Fei'er couldn't help but be sad.

"Miss, I, I'm obsessed. You asked me to fetch Wanshan Hong, and I was seen by Brother Dongzi. He said, saying that this is a priceless treasure, Huhan Ye Shan Yu likes it very much, and he wants to steal it out and give it to Shan Yu, so that we, we don't have to worry about it for the rest of our lives. ”

Geng Xiaofan listened and couldn't help but shake his head, what do these people think, do they really want money and don't want to die?

"Humph! Shan Yugui is the king of the grassland, what treasure has not been seen, will take a fancy to my gems? Liu Letian was also angry, although he thought of the intention of his subordinates, but he was really sure, he still couldn't accept it.

"Brother Dongzi said that he heard Shan Yu tell the people around him that it was most suitable for this treasure to give to the newly married Han clan." Ping'er continued.

"Nonsense!" Liu Lotian roared angrily. Yesterday, Hu Han Evil Shan Yu's mind has been on greeting the Yan family, and he doesn't care about anything else at all. Wan Shanhong presented, he just watched it casually, and said, "It can be regarded as the treasure of the grassland".

"Ping'er, you have been deceived. Tell me how you brought Wan Shanhong out. Geng Xiaofan asked calmly.

"Brother Dongzi asked me to hide the gem, and he said he would find a way. Later, he disguised himself as a fisherman and took the opportunity to deliver the fish to take the gem out. He asked me to wait for him in Wulipu, and I waited for a day, but he didn't come. I was scared, and secretly came back to inquire, only to find out that he, he was killed. Whining! Ping'er cried bitterly.

"What's the matter with Zhou Da's copper skin?"

"When Zhou Da was drinking with Miss, the knife was placed next to the wall, and I accidentally knocked it down, and the copper skin fell off, and I wanted to find someone to help him set it. Later, later, I threw it in the study, and I wanted to confuse it and buy myself some time. Ping'er confessed honestly.

"You said that Dongzi was only interested in welcoming the Relatives Mission? He didn't say anything, what have you done all these years? "Geng Xiaofan must dig up more clues from Ping'er.

"He said that in the past few years, he followed a caravan to the Western Regions, and after he came back, he followed Huhan Yeshan Yu."

"You saw him yesterday, what was he wearing?" Geng Xiaofan asked.

"It's just the clothes of the mission."

"Are you sure?"

"Sure! I also wondered that his clothes didn't fit well and were a little loose. Ping'er replied in the affirmative.

"What else did he tell you?" Geng Xiaofan frowned, these circumstances could only confirm his speculation, and would not be of much help to the next step.

"He said, when he gave the gem to Shan Yu and got the reward, he took me to the Central Plains, and he also knew a lot of friends in Dahan."

Geng Xiaofan was a little irritable, this Ping'er was obviously deceived, and it seemed that she couldn't get any useful information from her. He stopped talking.

"Brother Xiaofan, do you have anything else to ask?" Seeing that he was silent, Liu Fei'er asked softly.

"No, I'm a little tired, I want to go and rest first." Geng Xiaofan looked up at Liu Lotian and Gan Tingchang, and said goodbye.

"Fei'er, I'm afraid this matter is not as simple as I thought. Now that someone is dead again, the clue is broken, and I have to think about it. Geng Xiaofan saw that Liu Fei'er was reluctant to part with him, and he was also a little hesitant.

This girl is really good, but I can't get too close to her. I have to "go home" sooner or later, and I can't hurt other girls for a lifetime.

"Well, Brother Xiaofan should rest early, this matter will be discussed in the long run." Liu Fei'er also saw that Geng Xiaofan's mood was a little low, and she didn't want to disturb him anymore, so she arranged him in the west wing of her boudoir.

Lying on the bed, Geng Xiaofan couldn't sleep and began to comb from the beginning.

Dongzi stole the treasure and dedicated it to Shan Yu, and this reason is basically untenable. Although I haven't seen that "Wanshan Hong", the lord of Liubao showed the treasure in front of so many people, and he was relieved to let a subordinate take the gem in the mansion, at least it shows that the lord of Liubao does not particularly care. If Shan Yu really likes it, according to his impression of Lord Liubao, he is afraid that he will dedicate it to Shan Yu on the spot.

If it is said that Dongzi sees the treasure, it is also a little unreasonable to make a temporary intention. Dongzi came to Liuquan Fort with the caravan, and it could not be a person from the mission alone, and Ping'er said that the clothes he wore that day also showed this.

Dongzi must have a purpose in mixing into the Shan Yu Mission, his purpose should not be just a gem, what is he going to do? Who is the mastermind behind him? Could it have something to do with the ambush of the Zhizhi Huns?

On the surface, the wind is calm, but in fact, the undercurrent is surging. I'm afraid the clues are already here!

Geng Xiaofan sat up all of a sudden, he had to go and meet the Lord of Liubao!

When he came to the study in the front yard, seeing that Liu Lotian had not rested, Geng Xiaofan walked straight in.

"Castle master, you have lived outside the fortress for a long time, I want to know about the situation of the Huns."

"What does Childe want to know?" Liu Lotian was also dizzy by what happened in the day, and as soon as he made tea, he saw Geng Xiaofan come in and was happy to chat with him.

"I don't know much about the Huns, you know as much as you know, just say whatever you want." Geng Xiaofan didn't know how to ask.

"Childe is humble. General Chen Tang's feat of sweeping away the Zhizhi Huns, you all know, what else do you not know? Liu Lotian smiled.

"Those are just hearsay. I want to know, how many forces are there in the Xiongnu now, where are they? What enemies does Huhanye have now? ”

"After a long sleepless night, I'll talk to my son." Liu Lotian smiled and poured tea for Geng Xiaofan with his own hands.

"Far from it, after Emperor Wu attacked the Xiongnu in the north, the Xiongnu tribe was divided, internal strife, after years of infighting, and finally there were two divisions left, Huhanye and Zhizhi, one south and one north facing each other."

"The two Huns were evenly matched, and neither could defeat the other. Huhanye asked for help from my Han and agreed with our dynasty to guard the desert for the Han dynasty. Later, you should have heard that the year before last, General Chen Tang raided Zhizhi Shan Yu and annihilated him in one fell swoop. Now the desert is already the world of Huhanye. ”
