Linjiang Taishou Mansion.

Taishou Yu Hong was talking with Wu Yi, the general's staff.

"My lord, this is the general's commission, this young man is a stranger, and he is exactly the talent that the imperial court needs."

"Hahaha, it's bothering Mr. to come in person for such a trivial matter, just find someone to bring a message." Yu Hong said with a smile,

"The general has repeatedly instructed that you can't neglect Lord Taishou, and it should be like this in the future." Wu Yi stood up and saluted, "Then it's too troublesome." ”

"Say hello to the general for me." Yu Hong also stood up and sent Wu Yi out.

As soon as the two of them came out of the hall, they were greeted by two people, one in front was thin and dressed as a scribe, and a strong man in the back was eight feet tall, with thick eyebrows and tiger eyes, wearing low-level official uniforms, but he was extraordinary, holding a bamboo slip and following behind.

"I've seen Lord Taishou, I've seen Mr." The scribe saluted them first.

"I've seen Master Xiao." Wu Yi returned the salute, and he noticed the strong man, "Who is this?" ”

"In Xia Huang Zhong, come and submit last night's street patrol record to Lord Registrar."

"Oh? What is the current position of the strong man? ”

"Thief Cao Shi."

"Oh-" Wu Yi touched the beard on his lips and pleaded to Yu Hong, who was guarding the Tai Shou beside him, "My lord, can you hand this person over to the general?" ”

"Hahaha, just a thief Cao Shi, Mr. just take it away." Yu Hong smiled and said to Huang Zhong: "Don't you thank Mr. for being able to obey orders under the general's account, that is your creation." ”

"Master Xie." Huang Zhong didn't have much expression on his face, he had something in his hand, so he could only hold it and bow down. Seeing this, Master Xiao took the bamboo slip in Huang Zhong's hand.

"Hehe, then I'll leave now." Wu Yi saluted again and took Huang Zhong out of the Taishou Mansion.

"Oh, it's kind of sent away." Yu Hong sighed, "You said that such a great general, what's the matter with staying in my Linjiang City all day?" Isn't he fighting Changsha? ”

"My lord, the competition in the Dragon Mansion is coming to an end, and the general must be staying in Linjiang for this matter."

"Recruiting relatives in martial arts?" Yu Hong said disdainfully: "Who doesn't know the Tao here, hypocrisy!" This is also the Long family, you will hold another year of martial arts competition to recruit relatives, so don't you have to marry your daughter to someone else? Marrying early can save so much trouble. ”

"That's what my lord said." Master Xiao hugged the bamboo slip and nodded in response.

"By the way, you send more people, follow the general and those sons, we can't afford anyone who has an accident."

"The subordinates will ask someone to do it."

"Go ahead."

Master Xiao stepped back, and he took the bamboo slips to the office room, and there were several soldiers guarding the door.

The lighting in the room is very good, but there is still an oil lamp, and there are all kinds of documents and materials on several desks, half of paper and half of bamboo slips, Xiao Zhushu kneels behind the case, he is one of the few officials who insists on not using tables and stools, he puts the bamboo slips he took from Huang Zhong's hand aside, takes out an opened letter from his arms, lights it with an oil lamp, and throws it into the brazier next to the desk, the flames swallow the envelope, and the two words on it gradually turn into ashes - Guiyang.

Wu Yi took Huang Zhong to talk all the way to Liu Qi's temporary residence, although it was temporary, it was still pavilions and magnificent.

"Gong Liang is back?" Liu Qi had just finished practicing, steaming all over his body, and took the towel handed by the servant next to him to wipe his sweat.

"General, the matter has been done, and the Taishou Mansion will recruit that person."

"Oh." Liu Qi looked at the strong man behind Wu Yi.

"There is also the general, who makes a private claim and brings a person to the general." Wu Yi let go of his body, "This person's name is Huang Zhong, the word Hansheng, he was originally a thief Cao Shi of Linjiang City, and he felt that it was a bit overkill, so he brought it for the general to see." ”

"Well, what are you going to do?" Liu Qi looked at Huang Zhong, who was not shocked by the humiliation in front of him, and was very satisfied.

"Borrow the General's Bow and give it a try." Huang Zhong clenched his fists and said.

"Okay, you can use the bow on that shelf as you like." Liu Qi threw the towel to the servant, he was good at martial arts, and the big men of Linjiang City did what they liked, and sent a lot of treasures, and there were all kinds of utensils on the weapon racks in the courtyard.

Huang Zhong walked to the bow shelf, compared, chose the largest bow, he pulled the bowstring, loaded the arrow, and shot at the arrow stack in the distance.

Hit the bull's-eye! Liu Qi was about to speak, and several arrows flew out in a row, each of which passed through the tail of the previous arrow, split the arrow body and hit the bull's-eye, Huang Zhong closed the bow, and the forked arrow on the arrow stack was like a blooming flower!

"Wonderful! Wonderful! Hahahaha! Liu Qi strode to Huang Zhong's side, "General Huang's archery skills are amazing!" With you, it will be much more convenient to break that Changsha City! ”

"Congratulations to General Huang!" Wu Yi congratulated Huang Zhong.

Only then did Huang Zhong react, he put down his bow and knelt on one knee and clenched his fists, "General Xie!" ”

"Hahaha, Hansheng, please get up." Liu Qi is happy from the bottom of his heart, he didn't bring many people to Linjiang this time, Wang Hu was seriously injured again, and he has not woken up yet, this person is strong in martial arts, has a humble background, and has no background, and now he has a plan to be a henchman.

"The Japanese general will recommend you to His Majesty, as long as Hansheng can lead the troops for this general."

"The last general will do his best!"

"Good, good! Gongliang, it just so happened that the Long family sent an invitation, you and Hansheng should go with me. Liu Qi entered the lobby and motioned for Wu Yi and Huang Zhong to sit down, and a servant brought tea.

"Yes, General, I don't know why the Long family invited the General over?" Wu Yi asked.

"If there is anything to do, it has something to do with this martial arts competition. The last time General Ben told them about this, they were vague, and now they should have an idea, someone can really rob my mother? Hahaha. Liu Qi said with a smile as he blew the tea.

"General, you need to be cautious, after all, Your Majesty ······ meant" Wu Yi implicitly gestured to Liu Qi.

"Gong Liang, Han Sheng is not an outsider now, there is no need to hide it, this general has always been suspicious of employing people."

"This, yes! I understand it below. Wu Yi gave up his hand to Huang Zhong, "I also ask General Huang for forgiveness, this matter is very important, and I have to think about it more." ”

Huang Zhong knew that this was Liu Qi expressing his trust in him, which made him very moved, and he finally had some expression on his face.

"General Huang, the general personally came here this time to investigate the Long family."

"The Long family?" Huang Zhong thought of the Dragon Mansion guards he had seen last night.

"That's right, this competition held by the Long family to recruit relatives, my government also participated, the momentum is huge, for three months, there are many people in and out of Linjiang City every day, and many people are favored by the imperial court and elected to join the army, but a month ago, some people in the court suspected that the Long family used this to raise soldiers!"

Huang Zhong was stunned when he heard this, and last night's conjecture came to his mind.

"But we haven't found any substantive clues so far, and the general came in person this time just to attract the attention of the Long family, so that the people who infiltrated the venue could infiltrate smoothly." Wu Yi shook his head, "But the people who have come back so far have said that there is no abnormality." ”

"Just because you didn't find anything unusual doesn't mean you don't." Liu Qi smiled, "Han Sheng, you were a thief Cao Shi before, you should be very familiar with this Linjiang City, what do you think of the Long family?" ”

Huang Zhong thought for a while, got up and said: "The Long family has a great influence in Linjiang City, eight years ago, the Long family presided over the repair of the city, and the people also received a lot of favors, in the first few years, the government still relied on the Long family to settle a lot of displaced people, and now there are many people from the Long family who serve in the government. ”

"Grace?" Liu Qi spit out two words, "Hansheng, you go on." ”

"There is still a strange thing about being lowly." Huang Zhong talked about what he saw last night, "Compared with the guards of ordinary big families, the guards of the Dragon Mansion are too elite. ”

"Well, I've noticed that, too." Liu Qi got up and said with a smile: "But I asked Wu Yi to investigate, there are only 100 guards like Longfu, and they are also reasonable and well-equipped, hahaha, who makes the family rich." ”

"It's a lowly job to think too much."

"Hahahaha, Gongliang, you really picked up a treasure for General Ben." Liu Qi patted Huang Zhong, "What did uncle say, well, general!" Hahahaha. ”

"Gong Liang and Han Sheng, with you two to assist General Ben, our Jing army will be able to set foot on other continents sooner or later!"

Wu Yi also stood up and bowed with Huang Zhong.

"Swear to follow the general!"

"Punish the general with a liver and brain!"

"Hahahaha, that's it." Liu Qi walked out of the lobby, "The two of you will go to Nalong Mansion with me!" ”

"Yes!"
