Chapter 19: The Shadows

Nothing was said all night. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The next day, just after dawn, Brother Ying Guang had breakfast with his mother and was talking in the hall when he heard the sound of a knock on the door of the courtyard outside, and said secretly: "This Wei Wenxuan's revenge came so quickly!" Unexpectedly, Montaigne's voice came from outside: "Brother Win, come with me, second uncle, they came back today, and they have already camped three miles outside the city!" ”

Dian Jun said with a smile: "Zhang Chao and Wei Dong must have come back with them, but I don't know if our Molin camp is full." ”

Xu Si said: "A battalion of 10,000 people, now it has been close to the year, it is estimated that there are too many people who come to Xianyang, and it will be built after the year, so that you can have an intuitive impression." ”

"Don't say it's useless, go pick up General Meng first!" Ying Guang took the two of them and galloped out of the city with Montaigne.

Three miles outside the city, a huge military camp has been formed overnight, with a horse rejection erected at the door, an arrow tower standing behind the wall, and a team of Qin soldiers patrolling back and forth, and not doing less because they are far away from the front line. The four of them were stopped by the sentry one mile away from the barracks, and only after checking the waist card were they released, and they didn't travel far, they saw the camp gate wide open, and the two cavalry rushed out of the door, and looked at it, it was none other than Zhang Chao and Wei Dong!

Immediately, the two of them saw Yingguang at first glance, and they were also very surprised, and they reined in the horse, got off the horse, and bowed down: "The last general Zhang Chao (Weidong), meet the commander." ”

Ying Guang hurriedly helped the two of them up, and said with a smile: "They are all brothers, so polite, what's the matter, do you know that we are coming, and we can't come out on purpose?" ”

Zhang Chao replied: "I arranged for the brothers in the camp, and I was going to visit the commander, but I wanted to meet him as soon as I went out. ”

"That's right, if you don't meet, you have to run for nothing, I'm about to meet General Meng, you come with me."

Wei Dong continued: "Commander, General Meng is not in the camp now, half an hour ago, the old marquis sent someone to call the general away, I heard that the prime minister went to the Hou Mansion." ”

Prime Minister - Wei Ran!

Ying Guang thought to himself, could it be that Wei Wenxuan went back and invited him to come forward? Thinking about it again, no, when he is the prime minister, will he put down his body and rob a woman for his son? I couldn't figure it out, seeing that Dian Jun and Xu Si looked at him with evil eyes, as if the situation was not right, as long as he gave an order, he would follow his own bear like a desperate person, and couldn't help laughing: "You are worried about a ball, how can I let a literati be scared away?" Go, come with me to meet the general! ”

Montaigne said: "What's going on? You've even seen the king, and you're afraid to see a prime minister? ”

"Haha, that's a long story, go, talk as you go!"

The group turned their horses' heads, passed through the city gate, crossed a few streets, and came to the Mengfu not far from the school grounds, and saw a gorgeous sedan chair parked at the door of the Mengfu, with a Wei coat of arms hanging on the side of the palanquin.

Everyone hit the horse and came to the front of the house, turned over and dismounted, the doorman took the reins, and led himself to the back of the courtyard, Ying Guang and Montaigne came to the hall, and saw Meng Chong sitting in the middle of the hall, and the first person sitting on the left was none other than Wei Ran, the prime minister of Great Qin.

Seeing everyone coming in, Wei Ran smiled and said to Meng Chong: "In the first battle of Moling Pass, Mengwu has a good command of the army, and it won't be long before I will be promoted again, I will congratulate the Hou Ye here." ”

Meng Chong returned the salute with a smile: "The prime minister is polite." If there is no deployment in the rear of the prime minister, there is enough food and grass in the front, and the soldiers can fight with peace of mind. ”

"Alas, Master Hou has won the prize, he has won the prize!" Wei Ran raised his hand with a smile and said, "I won't bother anymore, you guys talk slowly, talk slowly." ”

Wei Ran got up, gave a salute to Meng Chong, turned around and walked out of the hall, Ying Guang and the others bent down to salute, and said, "I've seen the prime minister." ”

"Yes." Wei Ran paused, "Commander Win, the dog was rude a few days ago, and he said something nonsense, don't take it to heart." ”

"Don't dare, don't dare." Ying Guang lowered his head and bent his waist deeper.

"Yes." Wei Ran stopped talking and walked out of the house slowly.

Dian Jun and Xu Sixie glanced at each other, their faces were full of confusion, what kind of situation is this, the dignified Prime Minister of Qin actually explained to the commander, this is unimaginable.

"Come in, all of you." Meng Chong beckoned to everyone.

The Meng family has been on the border for generations, and there are many famous generals in the clan, and the family style is no different from that in the army.

This meal did not end until the third watch, and declined the kindness of Montaigne and others, Yingguang returned to his residence, let Dianjun and Xu Sixie go to rest, turned around and closed the door, sat down at the table, took a sip of water from the cup, and when he woke up, he heard a knock on the door outside.

The wine in Yingguang's eyes dissipated, and he regained his clarity, who would be the people outside the door, they never knocked on the door, they all pushed it open and entered.

"Come in, the deadbolt isn't in." Ying Guang said lightly.

The door "creaked" open, the cold wind rolled in along the crack of the door with snowflakes, and a man in black wearing a ghost face walked into the house, buckled the door with his backhand, knelt on one knee in the face of Ying Guang, and arched his hand: "The leader of the Shadow Heaven Division, Lu Da, I have seen the young master!" ”

Ying Guang said: "You call me... Master. ”

"Yes, everything is the order of the Great Chief."

"Well, I just didn't expect this seal to be really easy to use." Ying Guang played with the seal, looked at Lu Da who was kneeling in front of him, and wanted to see something, but unfortunately, under the ghost face, he couldn't see any expression.

"I don't know what the young master summoned me for?"

"That's right, Wang Wei, the pioneer of Moling Guanyuan, disappeared after he dedicated the city, I want to know where he is, if I can capture him without alarming others."

"Yes! I don't know what else the young master commands. ”

Ying Guang thought for a moment and said, "I will return to the army in the next year, how to contact you." ”

Lu Da laughed and said, "Young Master, don't worry, our shadow network is huge, and there are our people from all walks of life. As long as the young master sends out the seal, no matter where he is, someone will come to contact him. ”

Ying Guang nodded, "One last question." ”

"Young master, may I ask."

"What does your shadow have to do with my family, and why do you help me?"

Lu Da hesitated for a moment and said, "There are too many things I can't say now, but young master, please rest assured, the shadow was built by the old master himself, and it will never be unfavorable to the young master and the old lady." ”

"Then why didn't you show up sooner? It only appeared when we entered Xianyang. ”

"At the beginning, the shadow was sent out by the lord on a mission, and when we came back, the house had been washed in blood, and there was no one alive." Lu Da said in a deep voice, "At that time, the big leader led the brothers to investigate secretly and found a few clues, but unfortunately, these people were all wiped out later. ”

"Originally, the big leader was desperate, but he overheard a rumor, and the big leader naturally wouldn't give up easily, so he found the old lady."

"You're just sure you're not looking for the wrong person?"

"No, the big leader has seen the old lady before, and he has confirmed with the old lady. You can't go wrong. ”

"Okay, it's okay, you step down."

"Lu Da said goodbye."

Lu Da got up, walked out of the door, and respectfully closed the door.

"Father, what is your identity?"

Ying Guang closed his eyes.
