Volume 2 Young Man Chapter 79 Strange Courtyard
In the general's mansion in Linyuancheng, Meng Shanhu looked at the two children who were a little restrained, and suddenly felt a little disappointed in his heart. As the saying goes, three years old looks old, and a person's character can probably be seen from his every move when he was a teenager. Even though natural life experience may affect a person, and even change a person's temperament, such people are very few after all.
Meng Shanhu still believes in his ability to see people, and after some simple questions and answers, he came to the conclusion that his talent is not so stupid, but he has a bad character, some slippery, and some ambitious. In Meng Shanhu's view, whether a person can achieve great things depends on the quality of talent, and the heart and virtue are the most important.
In fact, Meng Shanhu asked only some simple questions, such as where he lived before, how he lived, how his studies were, who was Mr. Professor, and what schoolwork Professor Che Ying had, what classwork Professor Da Liangzao had, had he ever been to Liyang City, and some of the experiences and experiences that had traveled thousands of miles from Yongcheng to Linyuan City were all minor problems.
But it is these small problems that can make Meng Shanhu understand Qin Chuan, the attitude of several big people towards Qin Chuan, and especially the most important thing is to know Qin Chuan's status in the heart of the monarch.
Qin Chuan did tell the truth about some issues, but he was secretive about other issues, such as his relationship with Che Ying and Wei Ying.
What scheming can a six-year-old child have? Most of them will talk about the most proud and trustworthy person in their hearts. For example, when two children fight and lose, the losing party will often say, you wait, I'll tell whom, let him clean you up, and so on.
Qin Chuan sat opposite Meng Sanhu, constantly slandering this man with a honey-bellied sword belly in his heart.
From the change in Meng Santo's attitude outside the general's mansion to the simple conversation inside the house, there was a sense of temptation. If these were placed on other children who were the same age as Qin Chuan, they might just think it was just a simple test, but Qin Chuan clearly understood Meng Sanhu's intentions.
Qin Chuan hoped that his idea was wrong, and hoped that Meng Shanhu would simply ask, and not mix too much scheming in it.
"What an old fox..."Qin Chuan muttered silently in his heart.
After a few words of greeting, Qin Chuan raised his head and said to Meng Shanhu as if he remembered something: "Uncle Meng Shi, I don't know if you know where the courtyard that Brother Che Ying prepared for me is?" I searched for a long time, but I didn't find it. ”
Listening to Qin Chuan's words, Meng Shan seemed to suddenly remember something, slapped his thigh, and said apologetically: "Please don't blame Gongzi, General Che Ying came to Linyuan City a few months ago, and did prepare a courtyard for Gongzi, and also told the last general to wait for Gongzi to come, and then take Gongzi over to have a look." It's just that I just talked about it, but I forgot about it. ”
Listening to Meng Sanhu's words, Qin Chuan felt a little disdain in his heart, he could really say it without changing his face if he deceived a child like this. But the superficial work still has to be done, so he got up and wanted to thank him, but Meng Shanhu stretched out his hand to stop him, and said seriously: "Son, you don't have to be polite, these are all things that are within your bounds." ”
Qin Chuan had no choice but to give up and said to Meng Shanhu in front of him: "Well, Brother Che Ying told me about this, why don't we go and take a look now?" ”
"Now...... a look of hesitation flashed across Meng Sanhu's face.
"Isn't it convenient today? Or has something happened? Qin Chuan looked at Meng Shanhu and asked suspiciously.
"Since Childe wants to go now, then go now." Meng Shanhu thought for a moment, waved his big hand, and left the house with the two of them.
Erya really rarely spoke during this period of time, because when she saw the Mengshan Tiger, a feeling of fear rose in her heart, as for the other originally, as the maid of the son, she couldn't speak on this occasion, otherwise it would be a bad etiquette and she would be punished.
Next to the gate of a courtyard not far from the General's Mansion, Meng Shanhu led two people to stop in front of the black wooden door. Pointing to this courtyard, he said: "This is the courtyard that General Che Ying bought for you, and a cart of slaves was sent some time ago, and they are all here." ”
Qin Chuan looked at this courtyard, the courtyard wall was about one and a half people high, two wooden doors with a pitch black body, each wooden door had an iron ring, and a big lock locked the two doors.
"Can't get out of the people inside? You won't starve to death, will you? Qin Chuan said.
"Haha, Childe, please rest assured, every once in a while, the last general will arrange special soldiers to send food to the people inside, those who don't die of hunger, besides, they are all lowly slaves, and it is a great blessing to have food to eat and not starve to death." Meng Shanhu put his hands behind his back and said with some disapproval.
Qin Chuan frowned, wanting to say something, but after thinking about it, he couldn't help but not speak.
"Uncle Meng Shi, can I go in and have a look?" Qin Chuan asked in a low voice.
Meng Shanhu was a little hesitant, then laughed, and beckoned to the soldiers standing guard in the distance, and a soldier quickly ran to the three of them, knelt down on one knee and said, "See the general." ”
"Pass on the general's order, send a team of people over, and bring the key to this courtyard again." Monsanhu commanded with a straight face.
The soldier took the order and left, and after a while, a team of more than ten soldiers ran over quickly, and the soldier who had just given the order respectfully handed a key in his hand to Meng Shanhu's hand.
"Childe doesn't know, the slaves inside are still wild, and with these soldiers with him, it can also be just in case." Meng Shanhu put the key in Qin Chuan's hand and kindly reminded him.
"Uncle Shi is still thoughtful, and the little nephew has thanked me here." Qin Chuan saluted, then took the key in Meng Sanhu's hand, walked to the black wooden door, and inserted the key into the keyhole. Hearing a click, the big lock opened in response, and with a squeak, the two wooden doors that were not too heavy were pushed open by Qin Chuan.
Looking inside from the doorway, I saw a huge wooden basin in the middle, and a small half basin of black water was contained in the wooden basin. There are two rows of houses on each side, and the larger room in the middle has a closed door, so you can't see the layout of the house. At this moment, a thin man with leg shackles walked out of a room, just glanced at Qin Chuan, and then looked at Meng Sanhu outside the door.
"What do we want?" A cold, hoarse voice came out of the man's mouth.
"Uncle Shi, what do they want?" Qin Chuan asked with a puzzled expression.
Meng Shanhu glanced at the thin man with a mocking face, and then said to Qin Chuan: "Childe, you have to be careful, there are a few of these slaves who are extraordinary, and several soldiers almost lost their lives, especially this person, don't look at the thin ones as skinny as bones, he launched a madness, and three or five soldiers are not his opponents." ”
Qin Chuan looked thoughtfully at the man in the courtyard.
"What do we want? Bring. The thin man stretched out his hand and repeated.
"What do you want?" Qin Chuan looked at the man curiously and said, raising his feet and wanting to enter the courtyard.
"Be careful, don't go into that yard." Meng Shanhu hurriedly said to Qin Chuan.
At this time, Qin Chuan had already stepped into the courtyard, and before he could stand still, he heard a bang, which instantly frightened Qin Chuan, and then looked at his feet, and was surprised to find that a finger-sized hole appeared on the ground in front of his feet.
"Whoever dares to enter the courtyard will die." The thin man said in a hoarse voice.
Qin Chuan looked up and saw the man's cold eyes.
Swallowing his saliva with difficulty, Qin Chuan thought silently in his heart: "Master..."
Just when Qin Chuan was in a dilemma, a soldier quickly ran to this side and whispered something to Meng Sanhu. Then Monsanto's face changed several times, and then with a wave of his hand, the soldier trotted away.
"Childe, don't be like this lowly slave, wait for a day or two to come back, and make sure they are obedient." Meng Shanhu opened his mouth to persuade Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan took a step back, turned his head to look at Meng Shanhu, and said, "Is there something wrong with Uncle Shi?" Did you ever know what they wanted? ”
Meng Shanhu chuckled at the corner of his mouth, shook his head at Qin Chuan and said, "A group of cheap slaves, the general still doesn't take it to heart. Then he changed his head and said: "Childe forgives sins, there are some urgent military affairs that need to be dealt with, so it is better to ......"
Qin Chuan naturally saw the soldier, so he nodded at Meng Shanhu and said, "Uncle Meng Shi is busy with military affairs, so he can leave and leave a few soldiers for his little nephew." ”
"That person is indeed fierce and abnormal, isn't the son ......" Meng Shanhu said with a somewhat unhappy face.
"It's not in the way, I'm not afraid of the Rong Di soldiers in Yuanyuan City, am I still afraid that a few slaves won't work, Uncle Shi can leave with confidence." Qin Chuan said to Meng Shanhu with a serious face.
Hearing this, Meng Shanhu was shocked, glanced at Qin Chuan deeply, then stopped persuading, turned around and walked towards the general's mansion behind him.
They are all veterans who have been mixed in Linyuan City for several years, and their ability to observe words and emotions is naturally not bad, otherwise they would have become a pair of bones that I don't know where to bury.
A soldier walked up to Qin Chuan with some resignation, and said respectfully: "Master Qiyu, we also have military affairs in mind, can we..."
"Let's go..."Qin Chuan waved his hand and said to the soldier.
After listening to Qin Chuan's words, everyone quickly left here as if they had been pardoned, as if something terrifying was about to happen.
Erya looked at the thin man standing in the courtyard with some fear, walked to Qin Chuan's side with courage, and whispered: "Childe, let's... Let's go. That person, it's terrible. ”
As if he hadn't heard Erya's words, Qin Chuan once again stepped into the courtyard gate and said to the thin man, "I'm Qin Chuan. ”
The thin man still looked at Qin Chuan with cold eyes, but the arm that was about to wave was quietly put down.
