Chapter 220: More Bastards

Qin sent into Xuanfu City, politely refused the invitation of the chief military officer, and did not live in the general military mansion, but lived in the home of a wealthy local merchant.

The rich merchant was overjoyed when he learned that Lord Qincha had requisitioned his house, and he moved away with the whole family, and he didn't know where he had moved......

The border passes are barren, the rich merchants are not very rich, and the mansion is naturally not very big, and the three-in-three-out mansion is already one of the largest mansions in Xuanfu City.

This wealthy merchant was also an elegant man, and planted many peach trees in the house, and now is the time when the peach blossoms are in full bloom, and the peach blossoms are beautiful in the light of the red lanterns. Cao Wei suddenly regretted a little, if he didn't let the rich merchant's concubine go during the day, he could add fragrance to his red sleeves and be elegant now.

Do you want to send someone to bring her back? Just as Lord Qincha was thinking, Qian Ning whispered: "My lord, the weather at the border pass is still a little cold, let's go back to the house......

"Don't worry, this official is waiting for someone!"

Qian Ning wondered: "My lord, this person is not familiar with the place, who are you waiting for?" It's so late, people shouldn't come......"

"Who!" Zhang Meng, who was standing on the side, let out a low shout, Qian Ning turned his head to look, only to see a black figure quickly climbing in from a high wall, its agility made Cao Wei applaud, let Qian Ning clap his hands and call the guards.

Cao Wei waved his hand to signal the guards to retreat, leaving only Qian Ning and Zhang Meng, and said with a smile: "These two are old brothers who have followed this official for many years, and they are absolutely trustworthy, so you don't have to worry about revealing your identity, Shen Qianhu!" ”

The man in black ripped off the black cloth on his face, and Qian Ning exclaimed, "Shen Xiaoqun! ”

Shen Xiaoqun knelt on one knee and said in a low voice: "Subordinate Xuanfu Thousand Households, Shadow Guard Shen Xiaoqun see Lord Pacification!" ”

Before Cao Wei came to the border pass, Mu Bin told him that there was a shadow guard in the Jinyi Guard, and very few people knew about it, not even the emperor.

Accumulating power in the dark may be for the sake of gaining power or for self-preservation, and in either case it is a taboo for kings. Therefore, this matter was not known to those who were close to and close to him, so Cao Wei finally determined that Mu Bin had indeed chosen himself as the heir of Jinyiwei.

Cao Wei stepped forward to look at Shen Xiaoqun and said, "How many people are there in the shadow?" Are they all various identities? What are you doing in Xuanfu? ”

Shen Xiaoqun was silent for a moment, and said: "How many people in the shadow are only known by the commander, as for all the identities, the subordinates don't know, you need to ask Mu Shuai in person." His subordinates were transferred to Xuanfu by Mu Shuai not long ago, in order to investigate some things......"

"What's the matter?"

"The previous Xuanfu Qianhu died mysteriously at home shortly after returning to Beijing, Mu Shuai was furious and ordered a thorough investigation of the matter, but the person who did it was extremely sophisticated, and he didn't leave any clues. Later, Ge Lao personally checked the corpse, and only then did he find some clues, and the person who started it was quick and neat when he did it, which was very similar to the tactics in the army.

Mu Shuai checked the documents about Xuanfu again, and found that there were many twists and turns asking for the allocation of military funds, so he felt that there was something in it, so he ordered his subordinates to rush to Xuanfu to investigate. ”

Cao Wei smiled bitterly: "If the official didn't guess wrong, the death of the former Qianhu has something to do with the chief military officer of the Xuanfu, and even has something to do with the prefect...... Well, from the look of surprise in your eyes, the official already knows the answer, and the official sometimes really hates himself for being too smart and can guess everything. ”

"The adult is really smart, no wonder Mu Shuai sent an order in advance, saying that everything in the Xuan Mansion should be headed by the adult!"

Shen Xiaoqun's words were already obvious, and he handed over the command to Cao Wei, and even handed over his tasks in the Xuan Mansion to Cao Wei.

Cao Wei found out that Xuanfu was really a big trouble, and the chief military officer teamed up with the prefect to kill thousands of households, if there was no ulterior secret, Cao Wei would not believe it.

Now Xuanfu is a place of right and wrong, if there is any change in himself, he will definitely attract endless killing opportunities, Cao Wei secretly scolded Mu Bin in his heart for not paying attention to things, and he didn't give himself a chance to refuse at all, looking at Shen Xiaoqun, who was still kneeling on the ground, he had a headache.

After a long time, Cao Wei helped Shen Xiaoqun up and said with a smile: "Shen Qianhu ......"

"Don't dare, just call your subordinates by name!"

Cao Wei said enthusiastically: "Xiaoqun, you have also seen the situation in the Xuan Mansion now, Zhang Jincheng has a heavy army in his hands, and he is invincible. Since the enemy is strong, we can't act rashly, so let's treat it as if we haven't seen it today, and the official doesn't know what thousands of households were killed.

This official and the Tatars will leave the Xuanfu after discussing the matter of Haofang City, and it will definitely not disturb your battle of wits and courage, what do you think? ”

Shen Xiaoqun looked strange, with three points of surprise, three points of disappointment, and four points of disdain, probably he didn't expect that his new official would be so cowardly, how did this kind of person sit on the pacification envoy......

"My lord, since Mu Shuai has already explained, his subordinates naturally want to follow your lead, and now all the brothers in the Xuanfu are at your disposal, you just let the brothers die, and the brothers have nothing to say!"

Cao Wei's face flickered brightly and darkly, he raised his head and held his hands silently for a long time, thinking in his heart whether to kill people and kill this Shen Xiaoqun, so that he could act as if nothing had happened, but it was too inauthentic to do so......

After a while, Cao Wei let out a breath and said, "This official really owes you in his last life, let's talk about the situation in the Xuan Mansion." ”

Shen Xiaoqun's spirits perked up, and he said: "After the subordinates came to Xuanfu, they did not contact Zhang Jincheng and others, and they rarely went out, in case they saw any clues. But when night falls, the subordinates will put on their night clothes and go around to check and find something......"

Cao Wei saw the horror in Shen Xiaoqun's eyes, and hurriedly asked, "What did you find?" ”

"The subordinates discovered that the armaments brought from the imperial court would soon be written off on the grounds that they were damaged, and then they were sold by a group of officers, some to bandits, some to merchants, and some even to ...... Sold to the Tatars ......"

"Shhh Cao Wei gasped and exclaimed, "Tatars? This Zhang Zongbing is really bold, and he can even do things to fund the enemy, and the official only felt that he was a bastard, but now he finds that this Zhang Jincheng is more bastard than the official. How many people do we Jinyiwei have in the Xuan Mansion? ”

"My lord, I'm afraid the local Jinyi guard in Xuanfu can't believe it, and when he came to Xuanfu, he brought more than a dozen shadow brothers......"

Cao Wei frowned: "What can a dozen people do?" ”

"Adults must not underestimate them, the brothers in the shadows are all good, and they are invincible after forming a military formation, even more invincible, even if they encounter any danger, not to mention the enemy, it is not difficult to retreat with the whole body, which is also where the confidence of the subordinates in Xuanfu lies."
