Chapter 220: What's the Use of Killing Him?
"Isn't that, is there a second Qin general in this Shanggu County?" Seeing that the man in the green shirt was interested in Qin Cheng, Xiao Si's interest in running the hall also increased, and he even began to gush: "If you want to talk about General Qin, that's really a hero!" Tsk, there must be tens of thousands of miles from here to the Hun court, right? General Qin said that he would go as soon as he came, and he led the 10,000 cavalry of our Shanggutun army, and arrived in a few greetings! went to the Hun court to kill, it was unstoppable, and finally caught the prince of the Huns, swaggered away, and the Huns didn't even dare to chase ......"
Well, there is always a gap between the legend and the facts.
The man in the green shirt listened to Xiao Si in the running hall, and he didn't interrupt him, but looked full of interest, and listened to it with relish, and he didn't even mind that Xiao Si didn't serve the food.
This is not only the case for the man in the green shirt, but also for the lean young man Ermao.
"Don't hide this little brother, I heard about General Qin's deeds when I was in the Central Plains, and I also admired General Qin very much. This time I came to Shanggu, in addition to some personal business that could not be brought to the table, I also had the intention of being lucky to be able to meet General Shangqin. I don't know how much this little brother knows about General Qin, but it can be said that he is listening. The man in the green shirt encouraged.
Seeing that this objectively bought his own account, the little guy who ran the hall was also extremely satisfied, and couldn't help but brag about it, "This matter of General Qin, if you say that you know eight points, no one in the entire Qiansang City will dare to say that you know all the ......."
The little guy was about to tell a story, when a man dressed as a boss trotted over with a big belly and slapped the little guy in the head, "Let you brag and don't have to work?" How long have the guests been here, and the food has not been ordered......"
The boss scolded the little guy for a while, drove him away, and hurriedly smiled at the man in green shirt, "This objectivity, guys don't understand the rules, and there are many slackness, don't blame him!" ”
"It's okay." The man in the green shirt waved his hand and said with a straight face: "General Qin is a hero of the Han Dynasty, which hero is not admired?" I also want to hear more anecdotes about General Qin! ”
The boss smiled and said: "Since the objective is so interested, please order the food first, and after the food is ordered, I will personally say it for the objectivity, hey, General Qin is the pride of our Qiansang people!" ”
"That's great!" The man in the green shirt shouted hello, ordered some food casually, and chatted with the boss.
The two chatted until the meal was ready, and the boss said slowly to avoid disturbing the meal of several people, and then retreated.
After the boss left, the man in the green shirt praised him, and then he couldn't finish eating.
"Dongjia, it seems that this Qin City has a great influence in Qiansang!" While eating, Ermao's face gradually became gloomy, where is there still a little bit of joy?
The face of the man in the green shirt also became serious, and his voice was lower, "I had expected this before, but I didn't expect that the actual situation was even more powerful than we expected. ”
"What's the use of being powerful, it's going to move in a few days!" The big bull who had not spoken all this time muttered angrily at this time.
"Silence!" The man in the green shirt scolded in a low voice, "Let the family hear it, you will wipe your neck first!" ”
Ermao laughed twice, and said to the man in green shirt: "Even the running hall of a roadside inn is like a god to Qin Cheng, and Qin Cheng doesn't know how happy he is at this time." The more proud he is, the more careless he will be, and the easier it will be for us to get it, which is a good thing for us! ”
"Okay, I'll go to the room to discuss this matter later, and now I'll concentrate on eating, don't let anyone notice anything!" The man in the green shirt frowned.
......
Lao Ma, the owner of the Mayuan Inn, finished greeting the man in green shirts, and left the lobby and walked all the way to the back room.
"Boss, Dr. Nangong is here!" The previous runner Xiao Si happened to come out of the backyard, and when he saw the old horse, he said to him.
Lao Ma smiled and nodded, "This guy has now been made an official by His Majesty and awarded the title of Zuo Chief, but he hasn't been here for some days, so hurry up and serve tea...... Forget it, it's better to go to the bar, this guy can't taste tea. ”
"Okay!" Xiao Si answered, smiled and went to prepare.
Lao Ma arrived in the backyard, entered an elegantly decorated house, and bowed his hand to the people inside at the door, singing loudly with a big belly: "Xiaomin has seen Dr. Nangong!" ”
"Get in for the uncle, Niang Xipi, what kind of sour! I'm afraid that you, an old and unscrupulous person, are now scolding me in your tank-like stomach and can't be a doctor, right? Nangong Shang scolded with a smile, "I will serve good wine and meat to the doctor, if you don't do it well, beware of the doctor, I will tear down your signboard!" Uncle Nangong is now an official of the imperial court, and his mother is happy! ”
"Doctor Nangong, don't worry, Xiaomin will definitely serve you comfortably, uncle!" The old horse laughed, walked to Nangong Shang and sat down, only then did he return to his normal tone, and said to Nangong Shang: "You haven't been here for a long time, what kind of wind blew you here today?" ”
"Eat first, eat later!" Nangong Shang said with a smile, "Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't serve me food!" ”
"I know it's not good for you to come to me!" The old horse pulled the old face down, "Let's talk about it first, what's the matter, otherwise you don't want to drink a drop of wine today!" ”
"Hehe, that's a good thing!" Nangong Shang said with a smile, "Now you also know what your identity is, before you looked forward to it because your family had an unmarried daughter, but now Dr. Nangong is an official, and he wants to send you a sign of the Chamber of Commerce in this store, how about it, no opinion?" ”
"Who said that my old horse didn't join your chamber of commerce because he took care of his daughter?! Didn't my old horse not be in Qiansang at that time, my uncompetitive son-in-law knows a fart! Later, I went to look for you, but where could I find your shadow? Lao Ma's old face instantly turned red, and he scolded unhappily.
"So, you agree?"
"Is there any reason to disagree?"
"Well, wait, you don't know the nature of the Chamber of Commerce?" Nangong Shang leaned over and said in a deep voice: "This is to do intelligence!" ”
"How don't you know?" The old horse's eyes widened, "Isn't it just for you to keep an eye on the guests coming and going, what's so difficult?!" ”
"Good old man, you really have you!"
......
Mayuan Inn, West Wing Room.
The man in the green shirt sat at a desk and was sipping tea, Ermao was sitting on the side and was whistling boredly, and Da Niu was standing aside wiping a sharp dagger with a focused expression.
Soon, there was a knock on the door, very rhythmic, and several times in succession.
"Ermao, go open the door, and then keep a sentry outside." The man in the green shirt looked up.
Ermao nodded and walked out.
When the door opened, two men entered, both in their twenties and thirties, one dressed as an apprentice and the other as a craftsman.
"Sit." The man in the green shirt greeted, "Is it still too peaceful on the road?" ”
"Peaceful." The two men replied one after the other.
"Things have to be put away, this is a border county, and the weapons are very tight, especially Qin Cheng, who was assassinated once before, and met Chen You, but he has been staring at this aspect. Although he is now out of office, Yu Wei is still there. The man in the green shirt emphasized.
"No!" Two men hugging fists.
"Hmm." The man in the green shirt nodded, and said slowly: "This time, Duke Liu sent me and others to come, just to take the head of Qin Cheng in one fell swoop, there is only one chance, and there must be no mistakes." The reason why I took you deep into the tiger's den was really a last resort. It is true that Qin Cheng is going to Chang'an in some time, but this time he is going with the hussar battalion, so there is really no chance to start on the road. If you don't go into the tiger's den, I waited here, although it is more dangerous to act, but as long as it is properly arranged, in fact, the certainty of success is greater. You must remember not to reveal your whereabouts in the next few days, as far as I know, Qin Cheng is very well informed, and there should be some people under him who know a lot about our affairs in the rivers and lakes, so you must not be careless. After a few days, a certain person will investigate the situation clearly, make a plan, and then call you to wait for the action. Until then, it is best not to contact us unless it is absolutely necessary, so as not to cause trouble. It will be as little as three or five days, or as much as ten days and a half months, and we will take action. Guys, do you understand? ”
"Understand, everything will be done according to Lei Gong's wishes."
"Well, if there's nothing else to do, you can go back now. Big cow, go with you to see the place, and be familiar with the surrounding situation. ”
"No!" The big bull clenched his fists and promised.
It seems that the simple and cute big bull is indeed not easy to arouse the vigilance of ordinary people, and it is indeed appropriate for him to check the route of this Qiansang City.
"I'll retire."
Several people left the room one after another, and Ermao closed the door.
"Boss, what else are you and going to do today?" Ermao walked over and asked.
"Rest first, rest well, go around." The thunder was called Lei Gong.
Ermao nodded, and stopped talking.
"What do you have to say?" Ray looked up and asked, "Don't spit out." ”
Ermao pondered for a while, as if he was weighing, but thinking of the deep friendship between the two, Ermao still made up his mind, "Lei Gong, my words may be a bit out of line." But don't vomit or be unhappy, you don't blame me. After saying that, seeing Lei Cheng's face as usual, he said: "I secretly thought that killing Qin Cheng was not proper in itself." ”
"What's wrong?" Lei was asked, "Could it be that you are worried that Liu Gong will not be able to deal with the aftermath for us afterwards?" Don't worry, as long as I don't get caught by the officials, no one can help me. ”
"That's not what I meant." Ermao scratched his scalp, "I mean, if you kill Qin Cheng today, will you kill all the generals of the Han Dynasty one by one tomorrow?" Otherwise, what's the use of killing Qin Cheng? ”
