"I don't know if your guests are coming, Xue is out of reach!" Coming out of the dungeon, the middle-aged man came straight to the hall in the castle, and before anyone entered the door, the sound had already entered the hall from afar. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

At this moment, with the voice of the middle-aged man, it entered the hall, and when his eyes moved into the hall, he saw that there were five or six people sitting in the hall at this time, except for a man dressed as a Confucian student, the rest of the people were all dressed in armor.

"Shi Sima Nan, the governor of a certain Xia, took the liberty to come here, but he disturbed the castle master!" Hearing the voice of the middle-aged man outside, the Confucian student, who was originally sitting silently in the hall, immediately turned over and stood up, and said with a smile at the middle-aged man who walked in outside.

"Governor Xia's history?" Hearing Sima Nan, who claimed to be Governor Xia, the man who originally stepped into the door with a smile on his face, couldn't help but be stunned, and seemed to be a little surprised.

In fact, it is no wonder that the middle-aged man will be surprised, because he learned from Xue Rengui's mouth that Xue Rengui was in the army in Guanzhong.

Therefore, when I just heard that the soldiers said that five or six people came to visit, I took it for granted that it was Guanzhong, and Xue Rengui's boss sent someone here.

"Exactly!" Hearing the man's question, Sima Nan suddenly smiled, looked at the man and said, "This time Sima came here to ask the castle lord for a favor!" ”

"Changshi laughed, but I don't know what Changshi wants?" Knowing that the person in front of him was not the person in Guanzhong, the middle-aged man's heart suddenly, a little lost, when he spoke, there was inevitably a little less in his tone, and he was respectful when he entered the door.

"Xue Rengui!" Hearing the man's words, Sima Nan couldn't help pausing slightly, and then, smiling at the man in front of him, he said straight to the point: "It's not a secret, Sima came this time on the orders of the governor of my family, and wanted to bring Xue Rengui back!" ”

"Dare to ask Changshi, is that evil animal in your Xiazhou army?" I heard Xue Rengui say that the place where Xue Rengui joined the army was Guanzhong, but now, suddenly someone from Xiazhou suddenly came to the door, and for a while, the middle-aged man couldn't help but be a little puzzled.

"Not really!" Hearing the middle-aged man's words, Sima Nan's expression suddenly couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and then, he was slightly silent, looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, and said with a wry smile.

"Then Xue is a little confused!" Hearing Sima Nan's denial that Xue Rengui was serving in the Xiazhou army, the middle-aged man's eyebrows couldn't help frowning all of a sudden, and then, he looked at Sima Nan with a confused face, and said puzzledly: "That Xue Rengui is not your governor's subordinate, why does your governor want to come forward for that Xue Rengui?" ”

It's no wonder that the middle-aged man will be confused, this kind of thing, just who is it, I'm afraid I will be puzzled when I hear it, the governor of Xiazhou is obviously meddling!

"That's because the governor of my family is also entrusted by others!" Hearing the middle-aged man's doubts, Sima Nan suddenly smiled, as if he had already guessed that it would be like this, and as he spoke, he took out a letter from his arms, presented it with both hands, and put it on the low table in front of the middle-aged man.

This letter is an ordinary letter, and it does not look special from other envelopes, but unlike other letters, there is no name on the envelope of this letter.

"Isn't the castle master going to take it apart?" The letter was respectfully placed on the low table in front of the middle-aged man by Sima Nan, however, the middle-aged man's gaze was only, he glanced at the envelope casually, then raised his head again, looked at Sima Nan, and looked like he didn't intend to open the letter at all.

"Changshi can come to Xuejiabao, Xuejiabao will naturally treat each other with courtesy!" Hearing Sima Nan's words, the middle-aged man just chuckled, did not answer Sima Nan's words directly, but looked at Sima Nan, and suddenly said with a somewhat calm expression: "It's just that in this matter of Xue Rengui, I'm afraid Changshi will be disappointed!" ”

"What does the castle lord mean that he doesn't plan to let Xue Rengui out?" Hearing the middle-aged man's words, Sima Nan, who originally had a slight chuckle, suddenly froze his expression, looked directly at the middle-aged man, and asked reluctantly.

"I'm afraid not!" Hearing Sima Nan's words, the middle-aged man said almost without thinking: "Xue Rengui hurt my son, my son is still unconscious, and the most important thing is that whether my son can stand up in the future is unknown!" ”

"In this matter, Sima also heard from the governor of my family when he set off!" When Sima Nan heard this, he frowned slightly, looked at the middle-aged man in front of him and said, "However, even so, Sima still persuaded the castle lord to return Xue Rengui, don't forget, Xue Rengui is an officer in the Tang Dynasty!" ”

"But it's also from the Xue clan!" Hearing Sima Nan's hints, the middle-aged man in front of him was not moved at all, and after hearing this, he smiled at Sima Nan, as if he had been prepared for a long time, and said unhurriedly.

"Hah!" Hearing the words of the middle-aged man, who did not eat oil and salt, Sima Nan suddenly couldn't help but open his mouth and smile, shook his head a little helplessly at the middle-aged man in front of him, and said: "The castle lord said this, Sima still persuaded the castle lord to read the letter, and it was not too late to say it again!" ”

The letter was on the low table in front of him, and the middle-aged man didn't plan to read it at first, but when he heard Sima Nan's words again, he couldn't help pausing slightly, and finally, he picked up the envelope and opened it in front of Sima Nan.

Seeing the middle-aged man, he finally opened the envelope, and the corners of Sima Nan's mouth on the side suddenly curled slightly, and even a look of schadenfreude flashed in his eyes.

Because, the owner of this letter is not someone else, it was written by Zhao Chen, who was known as the first marquis in the Tang Dynasty!

"Chang'an Hou?" Sure enough, just when the middle-aged man opened the letter and just read the beginning, his originally indifferent face suddenly became surprised, his eyes were still staring at the letter in his hand, and he said without raising his head: "Xue Rengui is actually under the Marquis of Chang'an?" ”

"This, Sima doesn't know very well!" Hearing the middle-aged man's extremely surprised words, Sima Nan's eyes suddenly showed a hint of triumph, and then he looked at the middle-aged man with a smile, and said with a smile: "Sima is here, but he is just acting on orders!" ”

However, for Sima Nan's words, the middle-aged man didn't seem to hear it at all, his eyes were still staring at the letter in his hand, and the expression on his face was extremely shocked.

Obviously, such a result was something he didn't expect!

Before, Xue Rengui only said that he was in the army in Guanzhong, but there were 14 armies in Guanzhong, and this did not include the 16th guard, so he thought that Xue Rengui was probably in a certain army of the 14th army in Guanzhong.

But who would have thought that this Xue Rengui would actually take **** luck and climb the big tree of Chang'anhou, no wonder he came back so arrogantly this time, and as soon as he came, he gave Xue Jiabao a dismount.

He asked Xue Rengui before, but as a result, Xue Rengui only said that he was in the army in Guanzhong, but he didn't mention it at all, he was under the command of Chang'an Hou, and now it seems that I am afraid that Xue Rengui is waiting for this moment to come!

At this time, the middle-aged man looked at the letter written by Zhao Chen in his hand, and in his mind, thinking about the rumors about Zhao Chen, it was clear that the fire in the house would burn the whole house warmly, but he still felt that cold sweat was flowing down his back.

As the castle master of Xue Jiabao, he naturally knows more than others, and because of this, as long as he thinks about Xue Rengui, who is a person under Zhao Chen, the middle-aged man can't help but feel a sense of powerlessness.

"What, does the castle lord plan to let Sima take Xue Rengui away now?" Sitting quietly on the side, he saw the expression of the middle-aged man opposite, and after a while, Sima Nan looked at the middle-aged man and asked with a chuckle.

"I'm afraid this matter will have to be discussed with the prince before Xue can reply!" The previous attitude was very resolute, however, after reading Zhao Chen's letter, the middle-aged man's attitude suddenly became relaxed, and after hearing Sima Nan's words, the middle-aged man couldn't help but sigh slightly, and said to Sima Nan.

"There's no need to discuss this matter with the old man!" However, as soon as the middle-aged man's words fell, before Sima Nan could speak, an old voice suddenly came from outside the door, and said to the middle-aged man in the hall in a stiff tone.

"Taigong..."Hearing this old voice, the middle-aged man who was originally sitting there suddenly turned over and stood up, looked at the outside of the hall, and said in a slightly surprised tone.

Sure enough, as the middle-aged man's voice fell, he saw an old man in fur, supported by two subordinates, slowly entering the hall

And this old man is naturally none other than the old lady Xue who is regarded as the ancestor of Xuejiabao by the people of Xuejiabao!

"That's what the old man said before, Xue Rengui must die!" Ignoring the few people in the hall, looking at him with a surprised expression, as soon as Old Lady Xue entered the hall, she was supported by two subordinates, and walked straight to a low table in the hall, and her tone was still a little stiff.

Hearing Old Lady Xue's blunt words, the middle-aged man's face couldn't help but flash a little helplessness, and then, after Old Lady Xue sat down, he respectfully handed the letter in his hand to Old Lady Xue and said.

Before, Mrs. Xue's attitude was already very resolute, and there was no room for negotiation about Xue Rengui's disposition, but now that things have gone wrong, if the old lady still insists on her previous thoughts, it will be a little too dangerous!

"I don't want to see it, and I don't bother to watch it!" Sitting cross-legged behind the short table, looking coldly at the letter handed by the middle-aged man, Old Lady Xue's face suddenly sneered, stared at Sima Nan coldly, and said: "No matter who Xue Rengui's subordinate is, Old Man only understands one truth, kill people to pay for their lives, and repay debts!" ”

"That's right!" Looking at Old Lady Xue with a stiff expression, Sima Nan paused slightly, then looked at Old Lady Xue and said, "But now, since Xue Rengui is already an officer of the imperial court, what to do with it has to be decided by the imperial court!" ”

"Humph!" However, just like the middle-aged man before, when he heard Sima Nan's words, Old Lady Xue suddenly snorted lightly, and said with an extremely impatient expression: "Since this is the case, then don't tell the old man here, Xue Rengui's life is going to be decided!" ”

Oil and salt are not entered, and they are extremely blunt, even if Sima Nan speaks out, Mrs. Xue's attitude has not changed at all, on the contrary, it is much more blunt than the previous attitude of the middle-aged man.

"This evening, Sima will wait outside the fort, and Sima hopes to take Xue Rengui away!" I couldn't continue to talk anymore, the old guy in front of him was as hard as a stone, and he didn't even bother to read Zhao Chen's letter, so he had no choice but to say goodbye to the two people in the hall, turned around and left Xuejiabao with his subordinates.

Salute first and then soldiers, this is what the governor specially instructed him when he came, and now, since everything that should be said has been said, the rest depends on their own creation. (To be continued.) )
