Chapter 096: Each has a ghost

After Liu Wu discussed this matter with his second wife Liu Caixia, he asked her to go home an hour early in the afternoon, make two dishes with Wu's family, and handle this matter well. The two discussed, and when the time came, they only said that they would invite Mrs. Liu to come over to discuss the matter of finding Liu Caixia's daughter. Then Liu Caixia told Mrs. Liu what she had heard.

Liu Wu is already the de facto second-in-command of Liuzhong Ranch, and Liu Caixia, the head of the group, is both in charge of a mess, if they both leave their respective ministries to find children together, the impact on the ranch can be imagined. It's not about getting vinegar when you find a child, and it's not okay to say that you don't have a ten-day and half-month vacation.

This reason makes sense on the face, and when Lord Gao comes back, Mrs. Liu will wake up, so that Lord Gao will approve Liu Wu and Liu Caixia's leave, and the rest of Lord Gao's family, especially the Xie family, will not suspect it.

In the evening, Liu Wu took his errand, and while thinking about how to talk to Mrs. Liu about this matter, he walked home.

Since Xizhou Don't Drive Wang Da wrote a secret letter to Gao Jun and handed it to the two hearts and sent it to Chang'an, he began to regret it a little in his heart. At the time, I thought I had done it very carefully, but in hindsight, I still felt that something was wrong.

Wang Da's brother Wang Qianmin is serving in Zhongshu Province, a Zhongshu Sheren who is on the top of the fifth grade, and it seems that he is very good at the bottom, but it depends on where he puts it. Wang Da thought to himself, putting Wang Qianmin above the court is like a small shrimp to a big hippopotamus compared to Gao Ge Lao.

If you don't get it, half of Wang Qianmin may hand over the secret letter to the Gaoge old book case for the sake of his own future, that is, he will put himself on the meat board. Let people know that he has done such a gutter-digging thing, and then he won't be mixed up in officialdom from now on.

Even if Wang Qianming is interesting enough to hand over the letter, there is really some weight in his letter, that is, the tall man has a private meeting with the great leader of Tubo. Half of the people above may have really sent someone down to check on this matter, but half of the people sent by the emperor may have been from Gaofu; Even if it is not someone from the Gaofu faction, there is still half a chance that there will be no evidence in the end.

After he cut it down half and half afterwards, Wang Da felt that the letter he had worked so hard to write became more and more fluttering. After the two people who delivered the letter left, Wang Da didn't get a good night's sleep for a few days. In case this slap can't kill Gao Jun, the prince of horses. Then this Ma Wangye will hit his head if he closes all three eyes, and he Wang Da is waiting to be stung.

At this time, the old man who went to Chang'an to deliver the letter came back quickly, and he said to Wang Beijia that Lord Wang, who was a scholar in Zhongshushe, had promised to take care of this matter. Wang Da put half of his heart in his stomach. He hurriedly asked the man, "Didn't Lord Wang say anything?" ”

"Back to my lord, Lord Wang's eldest brother happened to take the word, saying that there was a man named Gao Jun who took away one of his eldest brother's nemesis, and Lord Zhongshu Wang had no plan to take care of this matter."

Wang Da let go of half of his heart again. Then he asked, "Don't you see what kind of rival it is?" ”

"Back to my lord, the little one happened to witness this incident with his own eyes - this old man had a dirty relationship with the eldest brother of Lord Wang when they were in pairs. The old man said that the eldest brother of Lord Wang stole his poems. Lord Wang's eldest brother was insulted in public, and asked someone to burn down the old man's grass house at night, but there was no shadow of anyone, but the Gao Jun was with the old man before. ”

Wang Da easily heard clearly, "What about the person who went with you?" ”

"Lord Wang said let him stay in Chang'an to listen to the news. As soon as the people came down from above, he would fly in front of the messenger to deliver a message to the other driver. ”

After a few more days, the young messenger brought good news to Wang Beijia, and the envoy of Chang'an had already departed. It is estimated that the Yellow River is almost crossed at this time. Only then did Wang Da put his whole heart in place, and his mind became active again.

Hearing that Gao Junren was not in the pasture, Wang Bei rewarded two hearts and asked them to call Wang Yunda of Jiaohe Mu to Xizhou. He's going to do something more.

As soon as the two of them wanted to leave, Wang Beijia said again, "I won't work for you, I'll go by myself." "It was already early afternoon when Wang Beijia decided to leave, and he happened to see the official letter from Taifu Temple arrive before leaving the door.

As a don't drive, it's normal for him to ask what is said in the official document, and the person in charge of receiving the record said to the other driver. It was a top-secret official letter sent by Taifu Temple to the Xizhou Prefecture of Xizhou, and it was about to be presented to Guo Dudu.

Wang Da stretched out his hand: "Give it to me, it just so happens that I will go to Liuzhong Ranch and Jiaohe Ranch." Although he was reluctant to listen to the record, he didn't dare to stand up to the other driver. So he gave this official letter to Lord Wang.

This official letter with a red "secret" seal is supposed to be sent directly to Governor Guo, but it is okay not to drive it. Under normal circumstances, a don't drive would consciously avoid such a thing - Guo Dudu is not at home. Even if Wang Da read this letter first, he should have said that he knew about it with the governor first.

But Wang Dayi heard the news that the two hearts who came back from Chang'an just brought, and he was a little excited in his heart, and secondly, he was about to him in Gaojun's ranch before the envoy came, so Lord Wang saw the official letter and said. When the Ministry of War was preparing for the war against Goryeo in June of the Tang Dynasty, Taifu Temple asked the pastures in Xizhou to recruit 3,500 war horses", he was even more determined not to tell Lord Guo first.

At that moment, Wang Da rode a horse without an entourage, and left Xizhou City with a secret letter in his arms, heading towards Liuzhong Ranch.

After Jiaohe Mu was assigned to Liuzhong Ranch by Guo Dudu, Wang Yunda was relatively honest for a while, and he knew who was controlling him no matter how unconvinced he was.

He didn't know that Master Gao's appointment of giving him a small shepherd was already taking care of him, but he was still haunted by the last time Gao Jun drove back three hundred horses from the Jieli Department. He always felt that the three hundred Turkic horses of Master Gao were the three hundred that he had been robbed, and it was just a change of disguise.

The demotion of Jiaohe Ranch and his own demotion caused by this incident made Wang Yunda vaguely feel that he was being calculated by the tall people. But he didn't dare to say it explicitly, so he had to hold it in his heart. In addition, Lu Mujian came to be in charge of Jiaohe Mu again, and the two were originally on an equal footing, but now they are several levels behind, Wang Yunda's heart is really uncomfortable.

Wang Yunda secretly pondered, right now, Lu and Chen and the three of them had just made do with the same table, and everyone politely grabbed the dishes and chopsticks first. After a period of stability, how to eat this meal and who eats how much depends on everyone's Taoism. He has a big brother who is a different driver, and he also carries a small notebook surnamed Lu with a black account in his arms, what is he afraid of?

The biggest gain of Wang Yunda helping Lu Mujian move last time was this booklet, which carefully recorded how much silver the surname Lu received and how much silver he gave to a certain year, a certain month, a certain day, and a certain time. Among these people involved are lower-level Beijing officials, middle-level officials in the state, and even he can't be ransomed by Huang Cuilou and spent eight hundred taels clearly.

Throwing out such an important little book at a critical moment can smash Lord Lu to death. He didn't dare to let it go for a moment. Once let his concubine see it and wanted to take it over to see what kind of novelty it was. At that time, he straightened his face and reprimanded her harshly.

Usually, this little concubine is very faceful in front of Wang Yunda, and she is a little pampered and arrogant. The more Wang Yunda covered her, the more like a kitten scratching in her heart. I suspect that there is something unsightly about him behind his back. So he seized an opportunity to get close, gave Wang Yunda a plan to drop the bag, and took a small book of about the same size and stuffed it in Wang Yunda's pocket. I thought about it in my heart, in case he found out that the book was gone, she wouldn't know. If you see that there is nothing, then secretly stuff him back.

It just so happened that Wang Yunda was busy these days, and sometimes he just touched his clothes when he remembered it, and he didn't have a chance to take it out and take a look, so he just put a fake book for several days and didn't notice it.

Lu Shanglou to Jiaohe Mu took office after the original two pastoral supervisors were also comforted, in addition to not allowing these two to sit on the ground to blow up the nest, he knew that his ministry was all a word from the tall man, the tall man that day lightly clipped a piece of paper in his hand, the upper lip touched the lower lip, and he blew him to Jiaohe Mu as the boss. If you want to sit firmly in the future, you must get closer to the tall people.

He had thought of taking the route of the tall man who couldn't take it. Thinking that Lot Dao was high in the state capital, and he was determined to be tall and heavy, it would backfire if he didn't get this matter right. You can't directly take the money to Lord Gao's house, this method is too unsure, in case Lord Gao turns his face, then there is no room for maneuver.

He thought about it, and finally thought of two people: Xie Guang and Xie Da.

What kind of virtue does the Xie family brother have, Lord Lu knows very well, I heard that Lord Gao pinched his eyes and pulled his horns and looked down on them. But if they can't do it, it is also the brother-in-law of the tall man, and ordinary people would never think of the idea of fighting these two. When the tall man was free, he hugged Tiantian and played on the street, which showed that he still liked the Xie family very much-his wife and son.

He maintained the two brothers surnamed Xie well, and the Xie family would always see it in his eyes. If she said a word next to the tall adult's pillow at a critical moment, what would the effect be in detail?

The whole village knows that the Xie family's family is torn together on the North Mountain at every turn, and it is not the word "money" that makes trouble! Most of the people in the village have moved to the new village, and they are still living in two dilapidated houses on the hillside. He's going to send charcoal in the snow.

Lu Shanglou discussed it with Xu Bu, and Xu Bu couldn't support it strongly, and the two estimated that there was a sixty or seventy taels of silver that could completely win over the two brothers. At the moment, he couldn't promise it, so he took eighty taels and handed it to Lu Shanglou and asked him to do it as soon as possible.

Lord Lu said, "The days can't be counted for long, this expenditure should be recorded first." "I couldn't go to the drawer and get the booklet, but I didn't find it. It happened that Duoduo came from the ranch and said to his sister, "Second Brother Xie's sister-in-law went to Sister Yang Yao to ask for Second Brother Xie's prostitution. They are scolding each other. ”

Xu couldn't listen to the urging, "Xie Lao'er's family is poor and crazy, and helping people is in a hurry, why don't you go quickly!" It's never too late to come back and keep the bill. Pushed Lu Mu Supervisor out.

The visit of such a big official as Lu Mujian overnight really scared the Xie brothers unclearly, and when Lord Lu explained his intentions, he was willing to sponsor the two brothers to move into a new house before the rainy season arrived. Xie Guangxie couldn't wait to kneel down and kowtow two to Lord Lu.

The sister-in-law said, "We don't lack any silver, last time our brother-in-law threw the silver directly into us, and it was useless to even go into the hospital to drink saliva." This is her comprehensive guess based on Xie Guang's words at night and the second sister-in-law's scolding on the street.

And the second sister-in-law Xie blew the words she said when she scolded Sister Yang Yao again, as if her sister-in-law of the Xie family was the grandmother of Gaofu. Lu Mu couldn't help but believe it when he heard it, and secretly said that the loss came in time, otherwise when Lord Gao threw the silver again, the eighty taels he took were really nothing.

After handing over the silver and scratching the side and saying a few words of gratitude to Lord Gao, when Lord Lu said goodbye and walked out, the sisters-in-law of the Xie family said vigorously, "Lord Lu will eat and leave, otherwise it will not spoil the hospitality of our old Xie family!" While rushing to open the door for Lord Lu.

Standing on the hillside outside the courtyard of the Xie family, Lord Lu looked south at the lights in the old village, and said as if unintentionally, "Only tall people have such a big hand, and they have moved the entire village to such a clean and tidy place, I heard that Lord Gao plans to transform the old village into a grass drying field, I don't know if Second Brother Xie knows about it?" ”

Second Brother Xie didn't speak, and the sister-in-law hurriedly said, "This is still fake!" I went to talk to my sister that day, and my brother-in-law stayed for dinner, and I listened to him at the table. Besides, my brother-in-law's cousin has planted a lot of alfalfa outside Beishan, so don't you just dry grass here? ”

Lu Shanglou arched his hand and said goodbye, walking on the road, thinking about Sister-in-law Xie's words, he thought it was true-Lord Gao didn't look down on them anymore, so if the sister-in-law went to chat and catch up with the meal, could she still bang out? If the meal is real, then not much of what she hears is fake. Besides, she just gave away the silver, and Sister-in-law Xie didn't need to lie to herself with her eyes open.

He decided: If he doesn't tell Wang Yunda and Brother Wang Yunda about this top-secret news first, don't count on Jia Fugui, who is full of kings. If everyone knows that they will throw away the old houses they have received together, and those houses will not be sold for leek?

He made up his mind, and went home happily, busy asking Xu to find another booklet to keep accounts, but he still couldn't find it. Lord Lu didn't take it to heart, but just complained that she couldn't say a few words, asking her to look for it tomorrow and put it in a safer place.

The two took off their clothes and lay down, Lord Lu told him the news he had heard, and the two high-fived each other in the bed. But he heard someone outside the gate, "Lord Lu, Deputy Pastor Wang asked you to go to his house immediately!" ”

Lu Shanglou put on his clothes and asked what was going on through the door, and the man whispered, "Don't drive your lord just arrived, now the deputy pastoral superintendent Wang's house, said to let you go." Lu Shanglou muttered in his mouth, dressed and came to Wang Yunda's house. (To be continued.) )
