Chapter 392: Rumor Changes

Chen Baichuan turned around and was about to leave, his mind full of doubts. What signal is the closing of the gate of Jiangfu releasing it?

Just now, the housekeeper of the Jiang Mansion seemed to be reminding Chen Baichuan that Jiang Chang closed the door to avoid him? Linked to today's events, Chen Baichuan has a clue in his heart.

He shook his head and sat in the sedan chair home.

。

The sky is white, sprinkled with orange on all sides. Such a beautiful sky is almost a prelude to tomorrow's weather changes. It was evening.

Lin Jiu, who was sent to the Jiang family, returned to the Chen Mansion, he stood in front of Chen Baichuan and just shook his head slightly, and Chen Baichuan understood what he meant. He returned again in vain, two days have passed, and the door of Jiangfu has not been opened.

Jiangfu is a wealthy family of Chen Guo, and Chen Baichuan is not easy to send people to investigate the situation. He only sent a few subordinates to dress up as husbands, carrying fruits and vegetables to sell under the walls of Jiangfu all day long, and he has seen a lot of situations in the past two days. For example, in the past two days, at least during the day, the gate of Jiangfu has not been opened. Even the servants of the house came out to buy things, but they came out of the side door.

And Jiang Changyin has not entered the palace for two days. If it was just to avoid him Chen Baichuan, he would not have achieved such a point. Chen Baichuan realized that Jiang Changyin was afraid that there would be a problem between Jiang Changyin and King Chen. For two days, there was not even a single person in the palace who came to condole, which was too far from the previous situation.

"Let's see tomorrow." Chen Baichuan held the tea cup in one hand, smelling the fragrance of tea, and his face was flat. In fact, he was still puzzled in his heart, and there was not a single bit of news from the Jiang Mansion. Last night, it even alarmed the old man Wu Yuqing, a big man in the literary world, and there was no news about the sudden change in the Jiang family this time.

The Jiang family's abnormal situation was learned by the ministers of the court and the central government one by one, and I am afraid that no one would know the reason.

Lin Jiu nodded slightly, and was about to leave, when Steward Lu came. Steward Lu's face was flustered, and the corners of his forehead were also covered with beads of sweat, looking at his current appearance, he knew that he was in a hurry.

He walked quickly to Chen Baichuan and said, "It's not good, I don't know who is spreading the news in the city again." It is said that the general is now in deep danger, and the Chen Mansion is controlled by the small master, and as for the news that the general is safe, it is all due to the collusion between the small lord and His Majesty King Chen. Some people are even saying that the little master is trying to seize the general's current position, and he can't help but be greedy, and ruthlessly kill his brother to seek wealth. ”

When Lin Jiu heard this, he immediately scolded: "What kind of person is the news that came out, this is clearly slandering the little master." Don't they know how strong the relationship between the little lord and the big general is? ”

Chen Baichuan also had a headache, he thought that the original arrangement would be able to turn his hands into clouds and rain and turn the situation around. Unexpectedly, the enemy still has a backhand, and now he has directly changed the target, pointing the sword of public opinion at him. No, Jian Feng was still pointing at King Chen, and now at the two of them.

He took several sips of tea, but there was still no good solution. The palm of his hand played with a small jade pendant, turning it quickly, and his thoughts seemed to move with it.

After a long time, he said to the indignant Lin Jiu: "Let this news spread into the Chen Mansion, I want to see how the people in the Mansion react when they hear this news." You should know what I mean. ”

Lin Jiuyi was stunned. He really understood what Chen Baichuan meant, and he could hear the smell of killing between the lines. He was terrified in his heart, the little lord was suspicious of the people in the house, could it be that there was really an enemy in this house?

However, Steward Lu was familiar with the road, and bowed his waist and asked, "Steward Lin still has little touch on bloody things now, do you want to let the old man and me work first this time?" ”

Chen Baichuan shook his head lightly and said, "Lin Jiu is working under me, and he will have to face these things after all, even if he dodges it this time, there will be next time." Lin Jiu, let me ask you, are you willing to do this yourself? ”

Although Lin Jiu's mind was confused, he still replied: "Yes." But little lord, if the people in the house really have a few hearts to the outside......"

Before Chen Baichuan could speak, Steward Lu hurriedly replied: "My Chen family has been a good man on the battlefield for two generations, and the thief must naturally be dealt with in accordance with military law." Either grind the intestines with a knife, or cut off the head, you can die in any way, no matter how cruel you are, you just can't give the traitor a way to live. ”

Lin Jiu shuddered, nodded, and left like a lost soul.

Steward Lu commented: "It's a talent that can be cultivated, as long as I survive this time, I will have a successor in a hundred years." ”

Chen Baichuan motioned to Steward Lu to sit on the stone chair opposite, and then laughed: "Old Lu, you will definitely be able to live a long life, I still have the Chen family, and there are a lot of things to pester you to do." Didn't you say that when I gave birth to a son, I would teach him martial arts with my own hands? ”

Lao Lu sat opposite Chen Baichuan and bent his waist, with a smile on his face: "The little master has reached the age of marrying a wife and having children, and he still likes to laugh just as much, just like when he was a child." But I'm over half a hundred now, and I was too brave to kill Qingguo when I was young, and I was covered with a secret injury. Wind and rain will cry pain, and you don't expect to live a long life. I only hope that your sons will come out as soon as possible, so that I can take a look at him. ”

"No, Lao Lu may be able to take care of my son and marry a wife." Chen Baichuan's face darkened, he knew that what Lao Lu said was everything. From Lao Lu's physical condition in the past few years, we can see the clues, day by day, some days are not seen, it seems that after several years, the wrinkles are more and deeper.

Time waits for no one. Lao Lu is no longer the old Lu who fought bravely with a simple knife, and Chen Baichuan is no longer the old Lu in Lao Lu's memory. Chen Baichuan has learned to compromise.

He said: "Now I want to stop the rumors in the city, and I don't want to spend too much time, so I can only suppress them by force." I don't expect the people below to really find out who is behind the scenes, I just want them to be more cautious when they do it. There is no guarantee that there will be no mistakes at all, but at least it is necessary to do a good job and kill too many good people. ”

Steward Lu nodded. He knew that Chen Baichuan kept him here, not Lin Jiu, that is, there were things that Lin Jiu couldn't do to give him something to do. These words are full of blood, and I am afraid that the whole city will shed a lot of blood.

Chen Baichuan was also helpless. The enemy hid behind his back, only manipulating the forces in his hands and Chen Baichuan's fighting methods. And Chen Baichuan's top priority now is not to fight with him, but to be ready to exert enough strength to rescue Chen Baili who may be in danger when Daheng is in an emergency. According to the enemy, you come and go with him, that is, Chen Baichuan has the upper hand again and again, I am afraid that it is the other party who will have the last laugh.

He has afflicted the people of the city, and he can control his men, but he cannot control their hearts. The people will still suffer this time.
