Chapter 141: Night Talk

"Quick! Fast! Fast! "I only heard a large group of men and horses roaring in the distance. When he got closer, Cao Shuang saw that the person who came was the Chinese army in charge of the city defense in Xuchang City, and the leader was Dianman. After quelling the rebellion of the Hou family, Dianman was promoted to lieutenant of the Chinese army for merit and stationed in Xuchang.

"It's too late, and I hope that the son will forgive his sins!" Dian Man was about to kneel down as he spoke, and he remembered Cao Shuang's kindness in his heart. Dian Man's temperament is strong and upright, and he has offended many people in the court, although he has been named Sima, he has never been given the opportunity to be promoted. Since meeting Cao Shuang, Dianman has ushered in spring and obtained the opportunity for promotion.

"General Dian, Cao Shuang can't stand it." Cao Shuang hurriedly stepped forward to support Dian Man and stopped Dian Man from kneeling.

"Childe, you can afford it." Dian Man wanted to kneel, but was tightly supported by Cao Shuang, and the two were deadlocked.

"You are now a lieutenant of the Chinese army, and I am an unofficial and white. If you kneel down, if it spreads, it will be bad for you and me. Cao Shuang approached Dianman and whispered. Cao Shuang understood the intention of Dianman. Dian Man has always wanted to worship Cao Shuang, but Cao Shuang refused. Although Cao Shuang wanted to accept the pawn, he knew in his heart that he couldn't do it at this time, as the so-called tree is a big move, once a party is formed, there will be no harm.

"But the grace of knowing ......" Dianman said very unwillingly, but was interrupted by Cao Shuang.

"All of this today is what you have done by yourself. A drink and a peck are all given by the prime minister, and have nothing to do with others. Cao Shuang let go of the pawn, took two steps back, and said seriously, "Do your best to repay the prime minister's kindness." Cao Shuang thanked General Dian here, and Cao Shuang said goodbye. ”

Looking at the back of Dianman in the distance, Dianman carefully tasted the meaning of Cao Shuang's words, nodded as if he didn't understand, and muttered in his mouth, "Dianman obeys!" ”

After returning to Cao's mansion, Cao Shuang settled Li Pet, he asked Jing Yang to take care of Li Pet, and then he went back to the room himself. Years of experience have taught Jing Yang that Li Pet in front of him is a dangerous person. However, he couldn't figure out how easy it would be for a master like Li Pet to kill Cao Shuang, so why bother to take refuge?

couldn't figure out the reason for this, so Jing Yang didn't want to either, and went back to the room to sleep. Li Pet lives next door to Jingyang, which is convenient for taking care of and monitoring. As soon as Zi Shi arrived, Jing Yang heard Li Pet go out and go to the roof, and he didn't care about anything else, Jing Yang got up and followed out with a sword. When he came to the roof, he saw Li Pet holding a waning moon scimitar, confronting a man in black with a cold dagger. Jing Yang glanced at the beast face on the waist of the man in black, and said, "Stop for the time being!" It's a misunderstanding! ”

"Misunderstanding?!" Li Pet asked puzzledly, "In the middle of the night, dressed in black, sneaky, where did the misunderstanding come from?!" "The confrontation with it is the night detective nameless, as soon as he entered Cao Shuang's courtyard, he was discovered by Li Pet. Li Chong's words were mixed with a bit of murderous aura, although Nameless was an old Jianghu, he had never seen anyone so murderous.

Jing Yang nodded, "This is Childe's person." ”

Jing Yang turned to Wuming and said, "Great Commander, this is Li Pet who took refuge in Gongzi today, and he saved Gongzi's life." "Nameless already knows what Li Pet has done, and the night detective who secretly protects Cao Shuang has reported the matter to Nameless.

"Disrespectful." Nameless put away the dagger in his hand and apologized to Li Chong.

Li Pet also put away the Remnant Moon Scimitar, and said with the principle of reaching out and not hitting the smiling person, "Disrespectful, it's Li Pet who is too reckless." ”

Nameless hurriedly said politely, "Nameless is reckless, I hope Brother Li won't be surprised." ”

"Where, where." At this time, Li Pet was not at all like a murderous demon, but polite, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Jing Yang would have been deceived by it.

"There is something to do without a name, and the two of you say goodbye." Nameless said goodbye to the two of them and went straight to Cao Shuang's room.

After Nameless left, the black-clothed people around Cao's Mansion also retreated. Jing Yang first opened his mouth and said, "So far, I don't feel sleepy at all, I'm waiting here to drink and admire the moon, I don't know what Brother Li wants?" ”

"I can't ask for it to drink and enjoy the moon here with Brother Jing." Nameless is also very tactful, he understands that if he wants to stay, be trusted and reused, some things are better explained.

"I don't know what Brother Li thinks of the surroundings of this Cao Mansion?" Jing Yang sat on the roof and took a sip of green fruit wine, so chic.

Li Pet tied up his loose hair with a headband and picked up a glass of wine, "Cao Mansion, especially this small courtyard, there are countless eyes staring around. ”

"They're not watching, they're protecting. They are always on the lookout, protecting at all times. Jing Yang is very clear about all this. Cao's mansion is surrounded by night spies, who are responsible for protecting the safety of Cao Shuang and his family, and Jingyang has long been used to it.

"All this?" Li Pet asked incredulously.

"His handwriting." Jing Yang knew what Li Pet wanted to ask, and raised his chin towards Cao Shuang's room.

After listening to Jing Yang's words, Li Pet was also relieved, although Cao Shuang was still a child, if there was nothing outstanding, his master would not let him come to Cao Shuang, thinking of this, Li Pet was even more determined to follow Cao Shuang, and firmly believed that his master was not wrong.

"How's it going?" Cao Shuang picked out the wick oil lamp and continued to flip through the military book in his hand.

"It's not a good job to do things, and the identity of the assassin has not been found. However, it can be determined that this group of assassins is the same group of people who assassinated you in Chang'an. Nameless knelt on the ground and replied cautiously.

"What about the others?" Cao Shuang had already expected this result, and dared to assassinate him in Xuchang, how could the other party not arrange a retreat, so he changed the topic.

"The prime minister will return to Xuchang five days later, and three days later, Cao Pi will meet Zhang Song, the envoy of Western Shu, at the post house." The nameless general just got the news to Cao Shuang.

"Send more people to keep an eye on the post house, don't make a mistake." Originally, Cao Shuang didn't take Zhang Song to heart, but I'm afraid this matter is not as simple as he thought.

When Nameless left, Jing Yang and Li Pet were still drinking and admiring the moon on the rooftop. At this time, there was still a room in the inn with a light on.

"Brother Huang, is Mr. Zhang still reluctant to return to Xishu?" A white-faced young man asked.

"Yes, after a few words of persuasion, Mr. Zhang was a little angry, and he didn't dare to say it again." The person known as Brother Huang replied helplessly. The white-faced young man named Fa Lin, the nephew of Fa Zheng, traveled with Zhang Song this time to travel and increase his knowledge. Another young man named Huang Jin was Zhang Song's head of the guards and Zhang Song's right-hand man. Along the way, Farin and Huang Jin had a very happy conversation, and the two became very close.
