Chapter 894: Visitors from the Western Regions
After a long time, a few words finally came out of Liu Che's mouth: "Keep checking!" ”
"No!" Su Kai agreed, but he didn't leave in a hurry. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Liu Che glanced at Su Kai: "What's the matter?" ”
Su Kai swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "The minister has a heartfelt word, I hope Your Majesty can listen." ”
"Say!"
"I think that General Su has absolutely no rebellious heart."
Liu Che looked at Su Kai, and Su Kai felt furious in his heart. Sweat began to appear on his forehead and back, and he was about to kneel down as soon as his legs were weak, Liu Che said: "I am still clear about this, to tell you the truth, I am not worried about Su Ren's rebellion, but worried about him being used!" Do you understand? ”
"I understand! The minister must thoroughly investigate General Su's back, and if there are any clues, he will definitely deal with it for His Majesty! ”
Liu Che nodded: "I believe you, have the people from Wenling come back?" ”
"I'm back, and I still haven't found anything."
Since Su Ren appeared in Liu Che's sight, the mystery of Su Ren's life experience has always been a piece of Liu Che's heart. Su Ren's way of acting was different from everyone Liu Che had ever seen, and Su Ren himself was weird. According to Su Ren's words, he followed his master around the world since he was a child, and finally settled in Wenling, but Liu Che sent people to visit almost all over the world, and no one had ever seen a strange man with a child appear.
Since Su Ren came out of Wenling, Liu Che targeted Wenling, whether it was something that Su Ren said inadvertently, or something strange that he asked in private, Liu Che had to send someone to visit Wenling. After so many years, Liu Che found the salt well that Su Ren discovered, also checked the river where he came to the world, and even visited the stone cave where Su Ren lived overnight, and the strange thing is that the entire mountain did not find the tomb of Teacher Su Ren, not even a trace of it.
Over the years, Liu Che has continued to send additional personnel to Wenling. Wenshui County Commander Zhang Hu sometimes felt that there was a big thief hidden in Wenling, and once sent someone to investigate, but unfortunately nothing was found, so Zhang Hu specially sent people to guard the Wenling mountain pass, but all those who entered Wenling were all examined in detail, and once again almost found evidence from a secret agent.
When Su Kai came out of the Xuanshu Palace, the moon was already hanging on that day, and tomorrow was the day of His Majesty's suburban sacrifice, and it was also the day of worshipping the generals, and the entire Chang'an City was deposited in a high degree of vigilance. Patrols coming and going in the streets will immediately surround people at sight, but if there is not the slightest evidence of the necessity of traveling at night, they will be arrested immediately.
Su Kai lowered his head and walked all the way to the front of his house, his house was behind Jianzhang Palace, if he entered the palace from the back door and raised his feet, he would arrive, but today Su Kai was a little confused, and he actually walked out of the gate, so he had to bypass the entire palace to return home. I don't know how many interrogations I went through along the way, and every time Su Kai only shook his waist card to send the patrolling soldiers away.
There were only Su Kai and three or two servants in the house, and at this time, everyone except the old housekeeper had already rested. Su Kai entered the door, and the old housekeeper immediately said, "Official, Madame is back with the little son." ”
"Oh? Why did you come back today? ”
The old butler shook his head, indicating that he did not know. Su Kai didn't continue to ask, and sent the old housekeeper down to rest, and Su Kai walked towards the back house. The lights were on in the room, and there were figures shaking, if he hadn't known that it was his wife who had returned, Su Kai would have been out of the sheath long ago. Thirteen Niang sat on the edge of the bed, doing needlework. The son had fallen asleep, sleeping very sweetly, and the saliva at the corner of his mouth had wet a large part of the pillow.
Su Kai pushed the door in, and Thirteen Niang hurriedly put down the work in her hand and changed Su Kai's clothes: "Have you eaten?" Why don't I do some for you? ”
Su Kai shook his head: "It's okay, it's about to dawn, tomorrow Your Majesty's suburban sacrifice, I have to go early, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep, go out and eat again." ”
Thirteen Niang nodded slightly: "You have lost weight!" ”
Su Kai smiled slightly and hugged his wife to his chest: "Why did you come back today?" There are no holidays on weekdays, and you rarely come back. ”
"Tomorrow, Your Majesty's suburban sacrifice, I have to pay homage to the generals, the Su family is busy with this matter, so I'll come back."
"Oh? It seems that Su Ren attaches great importance to this visit. ”
"No, the whole family is busy, including the twelfth sister, they are also helping, but Su Ren is the same as someone who has nothing to do, playing crazy with a group of children, and doesn't care about anything, it seems that it is not him who wants to worship."
Su Kai smiled: "This is Su Ren, he never pays attention to etiquette, it's not strange!" ”
As the husband and wife spoke, they prepared to rest. The night in Chang'an was not very quiet, and there was no silence of Louguan. Over the years, the iron stove that Su Ren has made has been popularized in Chang'an, and Chang'an City has a smell of bituminous coal. The rooster had already crowed, and Su Kai sat on the edge of the bed and sighed. Thirteen Niang glanced at Su Kai: "What's wrong?" But Your Majesty asked you about Su Ren's origin? ”
Su Kai nodded: "Not only Su Ren's origin, but also ask the forces behind Su Ren, I said everything I can say, and the next time Your Majesty asks, I don't know how long I can hide it." ”
"Why is Your Majesty already suspicious?"
Su Kai shook his head: "It's hard to say, but listening to Your Majesty's tone, you seem to know something, what have you done with those people who came down from Yuanshan over the years?" ”
Thirteen Niang thought for a while: "No, Su Ren never let these people appear in front of people, and only did some things to listen to the news." ”
"Do you know that a person has recently come from the Western Regions?" Su Kai suddenly asked: "I heard that Your Majesty has talked to this person a few times, since then he has been very concerned about Su Ren's affairs, according to my people, that person is a Han person, as if he has been in some organization, I don't know what the specific situation is, Your Majesty is very tightly blocked." ”
"From the Western Regions? I haven't heard of it! ”
"Tomorrow's suburban festival, the day after tomorrow, you go back to Louguan and tell Su Ren about it, let him be careful! Also, this person is very clear about Su Ren's affairs, and listening to His Majesty's intentions, His Majesty knows a lot of things. ”
Thirteen Niang pondered: "Who could it be?" Could it be the remnants of the Mo family? ”
Su Kai shook his head: "I don't know, except for Your Majesty is that Liu Jiqing has seen this person, no one in the entire palace has seen the true face of that person, only that this person is not very old, he lives in the palace, and His Majesty specially sent someone to protect him." ”
"Do you want to send someone into the palace to have a look?"
"Never!" Su Kai hurriedly said: "Your Majesty is suspicious of Su Ren, and once someone is found in the palace at this time, it will be very troublesome!" ”
Thirteen Niang nodded: "Then he knows ...... you" Thirteen Niang's words stopped halfway, and she didn't say the rest of the words.
Su Kai shook his head: "I don't know, this is what I'm most worried about, if this person knows something, then how can the whole family die without a place to be buried!" ”
"Why don't you go?"
Su Kai laughed helplessly: "Go?" Where to go? What's more, I promised Su Ren at the beginning, this is the critical moment of the Han Dynasty, how can I say that we are also Han people, I can't explain to Su Ren when I leave at this time, and I'm sorry for Your Majesty's kindness, don't worry, I will be careful, remember to let your people hide well, never show your feet, this is Su Ren's last life-saving force for us, once something happens, don't even think about running. ”
Thirteen Niang nodded again and again: "Write it down!" ”
Liu Che did not rest after letting Su Kai retire, and Su Kai was one of the people he trusted the most. But from Su Kai's words just now, Liu Che tasted another taste, Su Kai is an orphan of the Black Ice Platform has been confirmed, and Su Kai has been very satisfied with Liu Che over the years. From the beginning of spying on the courtiers to the later spying on the kings of Kwantung, Su Kai did a very good job, which made Liu Che very satisfied. But just now, a trace of discomfort suddenly appeared in Liu Che's heart.
Su Kai was recommended to Liu Che by Su Ren, and there is no way to change this fact from keeping up, before Su Kai came to Liu Che, he was Su Ren's person first. Now even Su Ren has a lot of things to hide from him, so how much can Su Kai believe in his words, Liu Che has already begun to weigh it in his heart.
The waiter and the maidservant knelt in the corner, and a few of them had fallen asleep, this was their unique secret, as long as Liu Che shouted softly, even if they slept very well, they would wake up immediately. Liu Jiqing is the head of the chamberlain, in charge of the life and death of all the chamberlains and maidservants in the palace, and he also closed his eyes at this time, leaning on the pillar behind him to nap.
Liu Che sat up straight and stretched his waist, and Liu Jiqing hurriedly held the warm tea bowl in front of Liu Che. Liu Che took a big sip: "Do you say that Su Kai is really not Su Ren's person?" ”
Liu Jiqing didn't speak, stood respectfully beside Liu Che, and looked down at the tea bowl in Liu Che's hand. Liu Che glared at Liu Jiqing: "Why is it so difficult for you to say something?" Forget it, go, bring the man, and I'll talk to him. ”
Liu Jiqing bowed down to receive the order, and now drove everyone out of the hall, and then finally went out and closed the door of the palace. There was not much time, Liu Jiqing appeared in front of Liu Che with a person wearing a black cloak, this person's whole body was shrunk in the black cloak, his whole face was covered tightly, and if he didn't stand in the shadow of the lamplight, he didn't think there was anything.
"The villain greets Your Majesty!"
"You said you knew a lot about Su Ren, so tell me a few more."
"No!" The man in black knelt on the ground and prostrate: "In addition to what the villain said, the villain's master told the villain that his old man once calculated a hexagram for Su Ren, and the hexagram is very strange, with the meaning of dragon hidden." ”
"Long Yin? What do you mean, could it be that Su Ren is a dragon? ”
"The villain is shallow in his studies, and the family teacher has never said it explicitly, so the villain doesn't know what this Long Yin means."
Liu Che smiled: "Your master is really strange, he admires Su Ren so much, what do you say Long Yin, did you think about recruiting Su Ren under your command from the beginning?" It's a pity that Su Ren didn't agree, that's why he sent you here to provoke me? Well, say! ”
"The villain doesn't dare!" The man in black knelt on the ground and didn't dare to raise his head: "The villain just came to warn His Majesty on the orders of the master, and there is no malice at all, please let Your Majesty know it!" ”
"Humph! You say that Su Ren's origin is strange, I think your origin is even more strange, if you don't do a good yin and yang family, what do you do? The reason why the Qin State was destroyed was all caused by you monks, come on, pull this nonsense guy out and slaughter it! ”
