After the three of them sat down, the maid of Dongfu immediately added fruit snacks, and the same tea as Hu Lin was naturally indispensable. Seeing that Hu Lin was still a little focused on the little song sung by the singer, he also listened to it stupidly.
The singer sings the repertoire of this era, Hu Lin is used to listening to modern music and listening to these, although it is a little strange, but try to appreciate it, the people are beautiful, the voice is good, and there are accompanying dancers, anyone will be attracted to it.
At the end of the song, without waiting for Hu Lin to say, Dong Fuxiang waved his hand directly and asked the singers to retreat. These singers were raised by Dong Fu, so they naturally listened to Dong Fuxiang's words, and dispersed one after another after bowing to the side.
Hu Lin was stunned for a moment, he hadn't let them leave yet, and looking at Dong Fuxiang's gesture, he knew that he had asked the singer to retreat. Hu Lin was depressed, in modern times, talking about things is all about wine and meat, singing and dancing, and it is boring to have fewer beauties and more beauties.
lowered his face, "Alas, the three adults have missed the distance and forgiven their sins." Lord Rong, Lord Chen and all the adults are here, why don't you notify Hu Mou, it's too rude, it's too rude. ”
Hu Lin handed over his hand, and Rong Lu and Chen Bi and a few officials in colorful official uniforms standing behind him saluted. With Hu Lin, a half-level official who can't be trained in the regiment, there is more of a person here than Hu Lin.
However, it seems that this little deflated third is still sitting in the position of the main seat, and it seems that Dong Fuxiang, the owner of this garden, has also become a visiting guest.
The polite greeting really didn't make a few people have a good impression of Hu Lin, but they still returned the salute. Anyway, Hu Lin has soldiers in his hands, and they are better than his own side.
This is Dong Fuxiang's mansion, but Dong Fuxiang is on an errand in the Wuwei Army under the jurisdiction of Rong Lu, and there is a third-grade member next to him, but the biggest one here is Rong Lu's big man "When I came to visit the day before yesterday, General Hu was not there, but today I finally saw the big warrior, and the credit for repelling the coalition army is not small." ”
"Where, where, it's not the emperor's grace that gave Hu Mou a half-level official position, attracting some people to share the worries of the court. I was originally practicing in the Guangxi Provincial Training Regiment, and I was shocked to learn that foreigners actually dared to fight me, how can this be done, how can these Western devils be disrespectful to the court and the emperor...!"
Hu Lin slapped the table at this point, expressing his anger, but not very loudly. Seeing that everyone was at a loss, this stone table dared to shoot so hard, the kung fu was profound!!
But this person with advanced kung fu patronized and talked, forgetting whether the table was stone, or polished with white rock spar of marble-level hardness. It's just that when I felt a sharp pain in my palm, it was too late, so I had to endure the pain, I couldn't make a sound, and the muscle twitches in my face were still under control.
At this time, everyone present nodded in agreement, and a small official on the side approved. "Yes, Westerners can't be disrespectful to the emperor and the queen mother."
Hu Lin gave the man a deep look, turned his head and continued. "So, I heard that those Westerners united to go to the capital to discuss the law, and then I took my Minzhuang, who recruited to fight bandits, found a few ships to wear on the seaside, and rushed over day and night, fortunately, the time was in time, and I didn't offend the emperor with these Westerners."
Everyone was still listening to it just now, but the more they listened to it, the more unreliable it was. The elite soldiers you brought are just fighting bandits? That warship can be found casually by the sea? What's the matter with the iron guy flying in the sky....
"Yes, yes, yes, General Hu is the loyalty of my Qing Dynasty and has made great contributions to the imperial court."
"So, I hurriedly came with the people and saw these foreigners ...... the aunt."
"General Hu Lin, we all know this, your Pingshan regimental training is indeed brave. We are here today to verify some things and ask General Hu to provide some information... ”
Originally, Hu Lin was going to continue to talk, but he didn't expect to be interrupted by Yin Chenbi of Shuntian Mansion while talking. Hu Lin knew that business was coming, so he didn't say much and looked unhappy, and sat back on the stool to listen to Chen Bi.
The three people at the table saw that Hu Lin's face was not very good, and they were depressed in their hearts. There is such a big event today, and so many principals come to listen to your story? I still want to go on and on, and the sun has to set if I want to listen to this posture.
"What's the matter, Lord Chen, is it possible that you want to come and ask me about the loot I have captured? No, no, I won't tell you how much I've captured, and I won't give it to you, many of the people below me are empty-handed, and the court hasn't issued a musket, at most, when the emperor comes back, a good cannon will be confiscated. ”
Hu Lin guarded against Chen Bi like a thief, and his vigilant appearance made the officials present have a pain in their kidneys... It's all about what you wanted, what kind of loot did you say, this is obviously nonsense.
"Don't get me wrong, General Hu, I know that you didn't give weapons to the imperial court when you were in this meeting, a few of us came today, there was a big mess in the capital, and many officials and gentry were looted and killed." When Chen Bi said this, he looked at Hu Lin's face, wanting to see what Hu Lin's reaction would be after hearing it.
"What, this is okay, the crime is committed at the feet of the dignified emperor, these people don't make trouble." Hu Lin naturally knew that he had made people do it, but he had to act, he had seen so much on TV, and pretending to be surprised was not a small role.
Chen Bi, Rong Lu and the others stared at Hu Lin without blinking, very real, very surprised, very earnest, not at all like they knew in advance, didn't he do it? Everyone present was a little skeptical, but it was obviously unscientific.
"General Hu, there are indeed people who are so bold, there are many cases around the capital, and there are also telegrams from Zhili, not only that, but there are also many cases in the outer city of the city wall, and they are only aimed at the gentry and nobles. According to the mouths of those who have survived and seen them, these thieves are extremely good at kung fu and are well armed..."
Chen Bi spoke eloquently, looking at a few small officials next to him from time to time, and told the tragedy that happened last night under the indignant eyes of everyone.
"Alas, it's so miserable, I didn't expect that these thieves didn't come to be loyal to the court when the foreigners came, and took advantage of the chaos to rob them, which is really a great crime and should be punished with capital punishment." Hu Lin also crusaded against these "thieves" with an angry face.
"Yes, these people are too bold, most of the robbers are full of people, this is a big trouble, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to wear this black gauze hat for long. General Hu, your army is on duty guarding the gap in the collapsed city wall, and it is likely that these large numbers of thieves will enter and exit from these places, and the city gate was closed last night, and it is impossible for them to go through the city gate. So we want the general to provide some information about suspicious people, etc. ”
Chen Bi half-squinted at Hu Lin, how can these people still climb over the wall, a large amount of property has to be hidden in the city, and a place has not been found? Obviously impossible, it must have been out of the city for a long time, otherwise there would be no trace of the carriage and horses?
"Oh? What does Lord Chen mean by this, don't think that if you are a member of the third grade, you can put a hat on my Hu's head, the capital is so big, and the foreigners are so chaotic, it is normal for someone to rob the rich, you don't go to check the suspicious people in and outside the city, etc., and come to our garrison to find something. ”
Hu Lin is gone, what if he doubts me, what about the evidence. Besides, he can't do anything about himself, and let Hu Lin provide information about suspicious people.
If Hu Lin provided it, wouldn't it be ineffective in guarding, wouldn't it be cover-up, and one hat after another would be buttoned down, wouldn't it be too. Although it was originally made by Hulin.
When Hu Lin Zhengse questioned, the person standing on the side couldn't wait. "It's not who did it, it's been checked in the city, no one can do it at all, and it's not one or two, there are dozens in the city alone, and there are even more outside the city, so many masters have appeared, if you don't let it in, we won't be able to find a clue in the city."
"Hmph, this lord, who are you? Is it my duty to defend the imperial city in the capital, and Hu Mou should also take care of these public security matters, so why do you want the Admiral of Jiumen and Shuntianfu to do it. ”
Directly ignore this official who doesn't know the name, and talk to your family, what are you going to interject. He looked at Chen Bi and Rong Lu with a sneer.
The two of them knew in their hearts that it was very likely that Hu Lin asked them to do it, and these masters were all extraordinary, otherwise they would not have done it so cleanly.
I have never encountered such a group of thieves before, even the Boxers are all frequent, no matter how much they cover up, they can catch a few dens, but this time there are no clues at all. (To be continued.) Mobile phone users, please browse and read, a better reading experience.
