Chapter 117: Expedition Again
Chapter 117: Expedition Again
Winter in Chengdu is particularly cold this year, with white snow condensing on the branches, piercing the gray sky, and a cold yellow mist flowing in the air, making people feel a little dull.
On the second day of the triage of the three divisions, the nostalgia of countless romantic and talented people in Chengdu, and the gentle township of high-ranking officials and nobles, were closed by two messengers of the inspection department, and a few brushes of paste were brushed, and the white seal was heavily pasted on it.
Liu Siyi stood gracefully in the snow, her slender and delicate back was enveloped by the wide forged and embroidered clothes, and even the pale yellow oil-paper umbrella propped up behind her was brought out by her with a hint of softness
In the dim eyes, she looked at the seized Qianyun Tower with some loneliness, and the falling snowflakes melted into crystal droplets and slipped lightly from the tip of the umbrella, wetting the three thousand green silks of her shawl.
The woman is picturesque, and she is in the city with an umbrella.
She sighed deeply, condensed into a cloud of mist in front of her delicate little mouth, and spat away.
"Master, where are we going now?"
Ziyun, who was holding a paper umbrella behind her, asked,
Liu Siyi seemed to have just been reminded, and gradually came out of the picturesque scene with her on that day and earth, thought for a while and said, "Yun'er, you find an inn in Chengdu and settle down first." ”
"What about you?"
Liu Siyi looked at the direction of the political envoy,
"I'm going to finish everything that needs to be done, and then I'm ..........."
She looked in the direction of the old house in Anfu again,
“........ I'll go find him. ”
Seeing that she was going to find Zhu Zongchen, Ziyun was a little uneasy and said, "Master, if you go to find Zhu Zongchen like this, how can he let you go easily?" You know so many things about the Wugu Sect, and it is he Zhu Zongchen who should be anxious, and he will come to us. ”
Liu Siyi shook his head, "Zhu Zongchen has a lot of scheming and means, we now have a clear plan to get out of his control, it is better to have a showdown with him directly, the past is to go to each other, he walks his Yangguan Road, I cross my single-plank bridge, there is no contact in this life, but it is better to avoid going back and forth to find some trouble." ”
Ziyun saw that she had made up her mind, and she couldn't convince herself, so she nodded helplessly,
"Okay, since you have decided so, I will go to the Donglai Inn in the west of the city to stay temporarily, wait for you to come back, and then we will make plans together."
"Hmm~"
Liu Siyi replied heavily, then took the paper umbrella handed over by Ziyun with his slender hand, turned away, and disappeared into the silver-clad street.

Undertook to declare the Envoy Division
Atrium
"Thank you for this time, my lord has been around from this, Ziren was almost victimized by a traitor."
Zeng Ziren leaned down and slammed his head on the ground, bowing to Zhu Zongchen, who was sitting on the chair of the Tie Pear Wood Taishi in front of him,
Although Zhu Zongchen looked down on him in his heart, he still had to get by on face.
Hurriedly stood up and stepped forward to help him up, "I once commanded you and me to be ministers in the same palace, why bother." ”
Zeng Ziren was helped to stand up by him, then sat on the chair at the bottom, slapped the pear wood carved table with his hand, and said very angrily: "Where else am I in command, thanks to them, I have now become a commander." ”
Zhu Zongchen chuckled twice, looked at this Zeng Ziren and said: "The Shu Wangfu is the chief judge, and the Inspectorate is the host of the case, so the old man can't say anything for the time being, but I said Ziren, as an elder, I still have to remind you, although you still have the authority to act as the commander, but it is easy for people with red eyes to stare at you at this juncture." ”
"What do you mean, Boss?"
Zeng Ziren was a little puzzled,
"As long as there is no objection from the emperor's side to your case, then you can sit in the chair of the commander of the same knowledge, as for whether to retain or not to retain the authority of the commander, isn't that someone else's word?"
Zhu Zongchen reminded word by word.
Zeng Ziren sighed and agreed with his statement, "Yes, the boss reminds me, alas, I don't know how many red-eyed people have already set their sights on my position, but in this green camp, there is no merit to be found, how can I be good." ”
Zhu Zongchen glanced at Zeng Ziren, who was looking anxious, stroked the beard on his chin, and said as if unintentionally: "The old man has a way here, but I don't know if Master Zeng still has the guts." ”
"What's the method?"
Zeng Ziren blurted out, but seeing that Zhu Zongchen didn't mean to speak, he suddenly realized, bowed down and knelt down in front of Zhu Zongchen, and said respectfully:
"Please teach me, sir."
Zhu Zongchen smiled with satisfaction, and said mysteriously: "Master Zeng, don't be busy thanking me first, you have to dare to do it when I finish speaking." ”
"My lord, please say, as long as the official is reinstated, Ziren has nothing to dare to."
Zhu Zongchen made a gesture towards him, motioned for him to sit back on the chair, raised his eyebrows and said, "Suppress the Five Grain Sect again!" ”
The three words of the Five Grain Sect are no less than hearing An Yi's name for Zeng Ziren now, after all, Old Man Zeng died at the hands of the Five Grain Sect.
"Why don't you dare! I can't wait to have these thieves broken into pieces! ”
Zeng Ziren clenched his teeth, and the expression on his face looked a little hideous.
Zhu Zongchen asked him rhetorically: "The five grain sect soldiers are many generals, and there are fifty or sixty thousand people, aren't you afraid?" ”
"What's so scary? A group of rabble, and now the three battalions of the Chengdu Green Battalion add up to nearly 10,000 people, as long as they command properly, they will definitely be able to win a complete victory. ”
Zeng Ziren's self-confidence made Zhu Zongchen very puzzled, although he was still patiently guiding him step by step to his plan, but he couldn't help but splash him with cold water.
"Lord Zeng, with all due respect, can you command those arrogant soldiers under An Yi's hands? Even if you have a tiger talisman in your hand, when you reach the ever-changing battlefield, do you have to rely on the tiger talisman to give them orders one by one? ”
Zhu Zongchen's basin of cold water chilled Zeng Ziren, who was still high and excited just now, from head to foot,
Zeng Ziren held his forehead and complained with a melancholy expression: "These gang of chaotic ministers and thieves have put Lao Tzu alive." ”
Zhu Zongchen is also depressed, this is the first time I have heard that someone else is a monster and a thief.
He was relieved: "But Lord Zeng can rest assured, the old man has already contacted the garrison generals of Long'an Mansion, and you have ordered Long'an and Chengdu to attack the Wugu Sect in the north and south as the commander of the Sichuan Metropolitan Command, and the soldiers under An Yi's men do not listen to the order, and he himself can't fail to obey the Tiger Fu dispatch, right?" When the time comes, give him the hard bones, and take the credit to yourself. ”
"Wonderful!"
Zeng Ziren's face was filled with joy for a while, and he couldn't help but praise him
"Ziren is really fortunate to have the guidance of the boss."
Zhu Zongchen's words undoubtedly rekindled the hope of Zeng Ziren's reinstatement,
"I'll arrange it!"
"Wait!"
Zhu Zongchen got up, grabbed Zeng Ziren, who was about to put it into action excitedly, and said with a wry smile: "My Lord Zeng, do you know where the current location of the Five Grains Sect is?" ”
Zeng Ziren scratched his head at this time, and Mu Ne said: "Yes, I haven't found out their location yet?" Is it still the same fox ridge last time? ”
Zhu Zongchen listened to a black line, and he didn't bother to explain to him, so he said bluntly: "In this way, you go back and prepare first, and when I send someone to find out the location of the Wugu Sect, someone will tell you." ”
As he spoke, he solemnly patted the back of Zeng Ziren's hand and said in a deep voice: "It's just this time...... Don't let go of any of the Five Grains Sect, your official title is all on them! ”
Zeng Ziren arched his hand towards Zhu Zongchen,
"Rest assured, my lord, I will kill them all this time!"
Zhu Zongchen nodded at him, and after seeing Zeng Ziren's back walking out of the mansion gate, he coughed lightly in the direction of the back hall in the hall,
"Ahem!"
At the screen in the back hall, a man in black turned out, turned over and knelt down in front of Zhu Zongchen,
"Tell Ning Fashen that the Five Grain Sect is fortified north of Fox Ridge, everyone is pouring out, and no one is allowed to stay, and they will go all out to meet the official army, and they must be wiped out!"
Zhu Zongchen turned his back and commanded the black-clothed man kneeling in front of him,
"Yes!"

Shu Wangfu
Lying comfortably on the embroidery bed with high shadows, frowning tightly, staring at the phoenix-patterned beam on the roof,
"Where the hell have these two gone? How to say that if you don't see it, it's gone! ”
Gao Yingshu was still wearing the lilac dress, leaning on the side of the bed,
"Have you found all the places?"
An Yi nodded, and responded: "I found it, inside and outside the Qianyun Building, I even asked Hu Yuhua to take Liu Er over the wall to go in, and searched room by room, but there was no one." ”
Hu Yuhua is the son of the Hu patriarch of Jiangning Village, when An Yi went to recruit soldiers, he said that he would climb over the wall, and later the brother and sister returned to the regimental training camp with An Yi.
Now in the green camp in Chengdu, An Yi specially put the two of them together with Liu Er, who was picking the door and locking, and asked them to take a few agile sergeants all over the city to find Liu Siyi and Ziyun.
Gao Yingshu's legs were in front of him, his arms were half-folded, and he pursed his mouth, and he didn't know where Liu Siyi and Ziyun had gone for a while.
"What about the inn in Chengdu?"
An Yi straightened up, looked at her with a depressed face, and said with a wry smile: "I've already asked them to take someone to investigate, can't you just send troops to turn over every inn in Chengdu, right?" ”
"I mean, what's the matter with you two? Yesterday in the church, what did you mean by saying half of that? If Liu Siyi hadn't picked it up for you, I don't know what to say about being inspected again. ”
Gao Yingshu looked at An Yi with some complaints, obviously very dissatisfied with his performance in the hall,
"You still don't believe me, I went to Qianyun Tower to find her a few days ago, and she said that she had to think about it, so what can I say in the hall? In case she already belongs to someone else, I have no reason to say this, this doesn't make people poke their backbones. ”
An Yi is also a bitter stomach, except for being separated from Gao Ying, he has no place to vomit,
Gao Yingshu put on a look that I didn't believe at all, and said with a serious and comfortable face: "This is absolutely impossible, women know women best, I can see from Liu Siyi's eyes that she has you in her heart, if she rejects you as you said that day, it must be something else that makes her unable to admit it." ”
"Secrets? What could be hidden? ”
An Yi frowned and meditated.
Gao Yingshu continued: "But I didn't expect that this Zhu Zongchen would actually be a peacemaker and actually help you alleviate the conflict, I thought he was ready to fall into the ground." ”
"Hmph~"
An Yi snorted coldly, he didn't believe that Zhu Zongchen could have such good intentions,
"He has ulterior motives at all, if my guess is correct, something will find me soon, after all, I have a soldier in my hand now, and I can help him cut the big tail of the Five Grains Sect!"
Gao Yingshu was a little puzzled by the meaning of comfort, and asked him, "You mean that Zhu Zongchen has something to do with the Five Grains Sect?" ”
An Yi shook his head, he really didn't know the exact relationship between the Wugu Sect and the Bamboo Sect,
"The relationship must be there, and it must be not small, but I don't know what the specific situation is, in short, Zhu Zongchen, the old fox, is in the shadows, pinching Zeng Ziren's tiger talisman and using me as a gunman, helping him clean up the mess behind his buttocks, I don't think I can stop for long, and he has to pry Zeng Ziren to find me."
"Garrison-sama!"
Liu Da's report sounded outside the door,
"What's the matter?"
An Yi turned his head and asked,
"Here's a letter from the Sichuan Commander Envoy!"
An Yi smiled bitterly at Gao Yingshu, "Look, Cao Cao Cao will arrive, what do you want." ”
