Chapter 123: Bai Suzhen's concern

After the people of the local family left, Xu Xian put away the gambling contract in duplicate.

After Huang Chong sent someone to escort all the men of the Lu family to the cell of the Zhixian Yamen, he came back and said, "My lord, everything has been arranged, I don't know what else you have to order." ”

"It's not too early, we should go home." Xu Xian said.

"Then my lord......" Huang Chong continued to ask, "I don't know what to do with the Lu family?" Especially the Lu family, there are many female dependents......"

Xu Xian didn't hesitate, and said directly: "Arrange for Dujiazhai Qingzhuang to guard here, remember, no one is allowed to enter the inner house to harass the female relatives here, if there is a criminal, all will be questioned!" Du Yong, I'll leave this matter to you. ”

Du Yong came out and saluted: "Yes, my lord! ”

He Yu and the other strategists wanted to come over and propose something to Xu Xian, but it seemed that they were in the way of the situation, so they didn't have time to say it.

Although this scene was seen by Xu Xian, Xu Xian didn't ask, and only after returning to the Zhixian Yamen did Xu Xian call He Yu and the others over and asked, "When you were in the Lu family before, did you have something to say to me?" ”

"My lord, since you have made a bet to level Heifeng Village within five days, at this time, you should let the young and strong people under you practice, and you shouldn't divide a group of people to protect the Lu Mansion, right?" He Yu said.

Xu Xian nodded and said: "This official also has concerns in this regard, but now is a special period, since the Lu family is powerful, I have to do some aftermath now, otherwise I am afraid that someone will attack and disturb the female dependents of the Lu Mansion, and at that time, the gentry and people in the whole city will distrust the county government...... This can be regarded as an explanation from the official to the local gentry! ”

It was late at night, and before I knew it, it was already very solemn.

Xu Xian didn't plan to spend the night in the Zhixian Yamen, he still had to go back to his house.

On the way back, Xu Xian was thinking about this question, and he said in his heart: "The lady should have witnessed everything happening today, and I don't know how to tell her when I go back." ”

Back home, Xu Xian entered the backyard, Bai Suzhen hadn't rested yet, when she got home, she changed into a white plain clothes, looking very quiet and elegant, Xu Xian walked over and asked with a smile: "Madame hasn't slept yet?" ”

"I'm waiting for the officials to come back." Bai Suzhen said, "The official should be very busy tonight, right?" So late, only to come back. ”

Xu Xian took off his coat, Bai Suzhen took it for him, Xu Xian sat down and said: "Didn't you just go to negotiate with the local gentry, and set a gambling agreement to calm the Black Wind Village within five days. ”

"Huh?" Although Bai Suzhen had already learned, she still pretended to be very surprised, "Official, as a concubine, I know that this Black Wind Village is a very strong bandit force around Yanshan County, and the soldiers in the village alone have heard that there are as many as four or five hundred people, and it is not easy to level this road of bandits, right?" ”

Xu Xian smiled: "There are rumors outside, there will always be some differences from the actual situation, it is said that there are four or five hundred brothers in Heifeng Village, but I have never seen more than a hundred people from Heifeng Village come out to hijack, according to my estimate, the number of men, women, old and young people in Heifeng Village will not be three hundred, and the strong men who can go to the battlefield are afraid that there are only between one hundred and two hundred, and the number is likely to be even lower than this." ”

"Officials always need to be cautious, officials don't know the specific situation in the Black Wind Village......" Bai Suzhen's face was a little worried, she seemed to be thinking about something.

"Madam, don't think about it, since the gambling contract has been made, then follow the content of the gambling contract, have a good rest tonight, and tomorrow I will send someone to investigate the Black Wind Village in detail, and I am ready to level the Black Wind Village within three days!" Xu Xian said with confidence on his face.

Bai Suzhen wanted to say something, but seeing the confident smile on her husband's face, she wanted to speak and stopped, and in the end she chose to be silent.

……

……

After Xu Xian fell asleep, Bai Suzhen quietly went out of the house, just a small meditation technique, Xu Xian fell into a deep sleep, this dream should not end until after dawn.

"Xiaoqing!" Bai Suzhen secretly entered Xiaoqing's room, at this time Xiaoqing was cultivating cross-legged, and when she saw Bai Suzhen coming in, Xiaoqing looked at Bai Suzhen, and her face was still a little unhappy.

"Sister, you too, don't you know that I'm cultivating? I was scared by you, my soul was almost gone, and I was afraid of being ...... by my brother-in-law," Xiaoqing said with a cramped look.

Bai Suzhen shook her head and said: "I first let the officials fall asleep before I came back, and it seems that your brother-in-law has now made up his mind to calm the Black Wind Village within five days." ”

"Flat is flat." Xiaoqing didn't care and said, "It's my sister who said it herself, if you want your brother-in-law to solve this problem with human methods, my sister won't change her mind, right?" ”

Bai Suzhen said angrily: "Even if your brother-in-law wants to do these things in person, let's go and find out the rumors in advance, it should be right?" There are some things that we can use to inform your brother-in-law in some ways, so that he can do things with half the effort, isn't it twice the result with half the effort? ”

"Hee-hee." Xiaoqing laughed and said, "Before I said that I wanted to help my brother-in-law, my sister always showed that she loved to ignore her, and now my sister is not in her original form?" My sister actually cares more about my brother-in-law than I do, but because of the relationship between husband and wife, I don't want my brother-in-law to feel embarrassed, right? Now my sister is worried, so she wants to take me with her to help her brother-in-law? ”

"You talk a lot!" Bai Suzhen didn't have a good breath, "If you go, if you don't leave, I'm afraid you won't have time to come back...... Besides, there is nothing to see in the dead of night, and it is best to take advantage of the fact that there are still some people stationed in Black Wind Village, which is the best! ”

"Hmm." Xiaoqing also sorted out her mood and accompanied Bai Suzhen to the direction of Daqing Mountain, where the Black Wind Village was located outside the city.

……

……

The speed of the two sisters was very fast, and they had already reached Daqing Mountain in a short time.

Bai Suzhen said: "At first glance, there used to be farmland here, but now, these farmlands have been abandoned, if your brother-in-law can take care of Yanshan County, the people's lives will be very rich." ”

"Sister, you think it's too simple, this is close to the northern border, and it is originally a war-torn area." Xiaoqing said, "Brother-in-law has quelled the bandits, and there will be bandits from other places coming over, and the northern country will also send people to the south to make my brother-in-law's life difficult." ”

Bai Suzhen glanced at her sister angrily, didn't argue with Xiaoqing, and the two continued to go up the mountain.

In the distance, you can see a very majestic cottage in the moonlight, the wooden fence is more than ten meters high, and there are spikes around the cottage.

"Sister, it's already deep at night, and there seems to be lights in the cottage." Xiaoqing pointed in the direction of the cottage.

"It's not right, could it be that something is going on in the cottage? Let's go with me! Bai Suzhen became nervous, she was afraid that something would be bad for her husband, so she took Xiaoqing and quickly entered the sky above the cottage.
