Chapter 23: Identifying Identity

Dai Qian continued, "I guess Tuoba Rui will use the talk and peace as an excuse, invite Cheng Minghu to explore the wind, and then take the opportunity to tell Cheng Weilian about the matter during the conversation, such a big thing Wang Da'er naturally can't keep his mouth alive, and find an excuse to drive people out of the house afterwards, and look for an opportunity to kill people as an accident and fall into the river"

"Wang Da'er is the prime minister's coachman, of course he will send some money to Wang Da'er's house afterwards, he doesn't know what is at stake, thinking that Cheng Minghu has read the hard-earned money given by the old days, and he is grateful, people are used to being poor, and they want to buy everything when they have money, but unfortunately she didn't think that the new bracelet in her hand was Wang Da'er's unjust money."

Lu Kai smiled, "That's why, from the new bracelet, you can judge that Cheng Minghu has seen Tuoba Rui"

Dai Qian looked solemn and asked, "So, what are the requirements of Tuoba Rui and Cheng Minghu?" ”

Lu Kai shook his head and said, "I don't know, but no matter what the request is, Cheng Minghu has to agree, if he doesn't agree, this time he will come to the peace talks, and he will bring the big-bellied Tuoba Yan to the Prime Minister's Mansion to give birth."

Dai Qian was stunned and said, "You mean, Tuoba Yan is pregnant?" ”

Lu Kaidao said, "I think it's eight or nine and ten, because I asked people to check the news of Tuoba Yan before I came over, and the only thing I know is that the person is not in the Southern Wei Dynasty, and he said that he went out to travel, which is also in line with Tuoba Yan's character, but I think it is Tuoba Yan who has a big belly and is inconvenient to live in the palace, and it is Tuoba Rui who hides people."

Dai Qian nodded in understanding, "The princess is a princess after all, no matter what Tuoba Rui wants her to do, it is always a big problem to be pregnant before she is married, but Tuoba Rui is also ruthless enough, and he does not hesitate to accompany his own flesh and blood in order to achieve his own goals."

The two unconsciously said that it was time for the second watch, and Lu Kai yawned and said, "Are you sleepy?" ”

Dai Qian smiled and got up, "You are sleepy, most of those guards are also sleepy, I'm leaving"

When the news of the assassination of the envoy came out, Chang Yue came to offer condolences at noon the next day, Chang Yue found Cheng Wei and Fang Wenhou, and the two stood in front of Lu Kai.

Chang Yue scolded and said, "You are so derelict in guarding the envoys, you really lose the face of Beishu"

Fang Wenhou said respectfully, "It's a dereliction of duty."

Cheng Weilian stood with a straight face, looking at Chang Yue very unconvinced, his eyes seemed to say, "What qualifications do you have to teach me?"

Chang Yue understood Cheng Weilian's thoughts: "Is the order convincing?" I'm telling you that even if the prime minister is here, I'm... ”

Cheng Weilian interjected rudely, "Taishi, if I make any mistakes, I will go home and be punished, I don't need you to care, if the king of Shu wants to ask for the crime, I will accept it."

"You!" Although Chang Yue knew Cheng Wei's character, he didn't expect to dare to confront him face to face.

Chang Yue didn't have the same general knowledge as Cheng Weilian, "You let Yang Gongtian find someone to disperse for me, in such a willful and reckless manner, I have to ask the prime minister, a small order is in the face of someone who can be good at calling the city defense sergeant"

Cheng Weilian was also afraid that Cheng Minghu would scold him, "They are derelict in their duties to protect the festival, where is there still a face left, people don't have to say too much if they want to leave"

Chang Yue is not good at counting too much, and when he sees it, he will accept "You two must learn to get along, don't make trouble in secret, go ahead"

Fang Wenhou said, "Yes"

Cheng Wei didn't even turn around and go out without saying anything.

Fang Wenhou Cheng Wei walked out of the courtyard, although he was a companion but did not speak, Fang Wenhou walked to the gate of the courtyard and stopped, Cheng Wei didn't even know what to do with him at a glance, and he didn't ask much about it.

After a while, Chang Yue came out to see Fang Wenhou, Chang Yue's footsteps did not stop, and he seemed to see Fang Wenhou as if he was nothing, and he passed by and went straight away.

Chang Yue's move was to show his disappointment with him, and Fang Wenhou didn't dare to be rude and bow his waist to send him off.

When Chang Yue was far away, Fang Wenhou saw Lu Kai, "The military guard is cleaned up, Brother Lu will clean up and go with me"

Lu Kai said coldly: "Military Guard? Are you trying to lock me up? ”

Fang Wenhou said, "Don't dare, after all, it's your own station, and it's convenient to take care of it."

Lu Kai sneered, "If you don't go, are you going to tie me up?" ”

Fang Wenhou frowned and said, "Brother Lu, the assassin knows where you live, so it is not appropriate to live here."

Lu Kai snorted coldly and said, "As long as the general orders trust me a little more, how can any assassins come?" ”

Fang Wenhou is a shrewd person, how can he not hear Lu Kai's meaning, knowing and admitting are two different things, Fang Wenhou said, "I don't want to go there or force it, relax my heart, as long as I am in the assassin, I will never be able to get close to the courtyard gate."

This means that he will not be looking for trouble with Lu Kai in the future.

Lu Kai heard his intention and asked, "Is there anything else?" ”

Fang Wenhou retired, "Brother Lu rests in peace"

Fang Wenhou retreated to the door and suddenly opened his mouth to ask, "If Brother Lu wants to eat Jing Jujube, even if he tells the brothers in the department to buy it, it won't be in the way."

Fang Wenhou's question came suddenly, and Lu Kai didn't notice that it was Fang Wenhou's temptation, nor did he think that Dai Qian would leave dried dates.

Lu Kai was defenseless and said directly, "I don't like to eat Jing jujube, if you need anything, I will tell you."

After listening to Lu Kai's reply, Fang Wenhou had no expression on his face, but he had already determined that the dried jujube was not Lu Kai's, so it must have been an outsider in the department, who was this outsider Fang Wenhou was very interested.

That day, he talked to Dai Qian, and asked Xu Guangheng, an official of the Prime Minister's Mansion, to call into the room, Xu Guangheng had been in the Prime Minister's Mansion for most of his life and was very loyal to Cheng Minghu.

Xu Guangheng is very kind, but he can be ruthless when he does things.

The doorman asked Xu Guangheng to call him into the house, and the whole person looked panicked, and the doorman asked tremblingly, "The housekeeper is looking for me?" ”

Xu Guangheng smiled and said, "Yes, I asked you to ask about something"

The doorman was nervous and said, "What does the butler want to ask?" ”

Xu Guangheng said in a gentle tone: "I heard that someone has looked for Wang Da'er? ”

Mending said truthfully, "Yes, it is said that it is a country brother, what is it called Chen San?"

Xu Guangheng was asking, "What is Chen San looking for Wang Da'er?" ”

Mending said, "I heard that I came to take refuge, I told Wang Da'er about it, and he left."

Xu Guangheng pondered for a moment and waved his hand, "So that's the case, it's okay, let's go."

Mending hurriedly retreated as if he was about to be amnesty.

Xu Guangheng knows the origin of every family servant in the Prime Minister's Mansion very clearly, Wang Daer's hometown has been flooded, where are there any living people.

Xu Guangheng was not very relieved to go to Cheng Minghu's study, Xu Guangheng knocked on the door and said, "Master"

Cheng Minghu answered "come in" in the house

Xu Guangheng gently and slowly pushed the door in, Cheng Minghu was reading in the study, and saw Xu Guangheng coming over to close the book with goose feathers and asked, "What?" ”

Xu Guangheng closed the door and said respectfully in front of the desk, "Master, Wang Da'er is from the countryside."

Cheng Minghu was calm and asked, "Who?" ”

Xu Guangheng said, "It's a man named Chen San, I heard that he is a country brother with big ears."

Cheng Minghu didn't respond immediately, as if he was thinking about something, and said after a while, "Hasn't there been a big flood in his hometown, and there are no people in his hometown who have come to visit him for so many years."

Xu Guangheng said, "Yes, I'm also strange, master, will it be a trouble for this person to come out of thin air?" ”

"Chen San?" Cheng Minghu muttered a sentence of thumb and index finger pinching the corner of the book and rubbing it, and said after a moment of silence, "Check this person, if it is a trouble, solve this trouble, now is an eventful season, and you can't make a side difference."

Xu Guangheng said, "Yes, master"

Cheng Minghu was admonishing, "Go ahead, do your best to do things well"

Lu Kai looked up at the blue sky in the courtyard with his hand, the weather was very good today, and the sky was clear.

Lu Kai was wondering why Fang Wenhou asked him about Jing Jujube, Fang Wenhou casually asked and answered casually at that time, but now he regrets it a little, Lu Kai always feels a little hasty, Fang Wenhou's question seems to have a purpose, Lu Kai can't figure out what reason he wants to ask him this question.

The clear sky can make people laugh, but the heart is full of doubts, full of worries, the scenery is good, and it is not intended to be appreciated.

Qi Ying came to Lu Kai's back and "saw the envoy"

Lu Kai looked back at the person and smiled, "Can you tell me, why didn't you receive the merit last night?" ”

Lu Kai was referring to Qi Ying's rescue of him from the back window last night, Qi Ying's eyes sank, "You don't know?" ”

Lu Kai was puzzled by Qi Ying's reaction, and said with a smile: "How do I know why you don't receive merit?" ”

Qi Ying's eyes gradually became cold, and she asked, "Roast flower chicken, do you want to splash sesame seeds?" ”

"Roast chicken?" Qi Ying, who was good, mentioned to him what kind of roast chicken, Lu Kai said with a smile, "Is it a specialty of Northern Shu?" I haven't eaten it yet.,You might as well be together another day.。。 ”

Qi Ying didn't finish listening, the long sword was unsheathed instantly, and the tip of the sword was three inches short of cutting through Lu Kai's Adam's apple, and Lu Kai was stunned on the spot, "What are you doing here!" ”

Qi Ying's eyes were like sharp blades, staring at Lu Kaidao, "Who are you!" ”

As soon as Qi Ying's words came out, Lu Kai understood on the spot that he had made a fatal mistake, and at this moment he finally understood Qi Ying, why did he tell him the time for Cheng Weilian to move, it was for his good, if the two sides did not have swords and eyes, Qi Ying also thought that Cheng Weilian would fight with Fang Wenhou, so he reminded him.

When Cheng Weilian was recruiting the four people to meet, Qi Ying guessed that the plan might change, if the plan remained unchanged, then there was no need to summon the four people, Qi Ying didn't know what Cheng Weilian wanted to do at that time, so he could only wait and see what happened, last night, Qi Ying had already been ambushed outside Lu Kaiyuan, and the four people were familiar with the defense route, and Qi Ying was also familiar with it.

When the four people jumped into the courtyard, Qi Ying knew the purpose of the four people, so he came to the rescue.

Qi Ying's meaning of saving people is very clear, if it is not a person all the way, why should he come to the rescue, but this person along the way refers to the envoy, not Lu Kai.

Lu Kai finally understood at this time why Qi Ying didn't take credit for saving people at that time, because Qi Ying couldn't expose himself.

Lu Kai gasped, and at the same time, the crisis increased greatly, and he looked directly at Qi Yingxin and said, "It's not good, he is the person of King Wei!" ”
