Chapter 162: Black and White
"I used to want to learn Master's formation, but Master hasn't taught me ...... yet."
Hearing Wei Shuming's words, Li Fu's eyes suddenly moistened, raised his heavy legs and walked to his side, hugged him affectionately, and said in a trembling voice: "You kid ......"
"Master, is he still in good health all these years?" Wei Shuming's tone is calm, and he is no longer as arrogant and arrogant as he was when he was young. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
This made Li Fu feel a little sad, and patted him on the shoulder vigorously and said, "Although my old bones are not as good as before, my brain is still very bright, and it is not a problem to set up a small array." ”
Wei Shuming nodded slowly, and said extremely respectfully: "Yes, there are few people in this world who can break Master's array. ”
After Li Fu heard his words, the smile on his face involuntarily retracted, and even the hand on his shoulder withdrew silently.
The two walked silently for a long time, and then Li Fu suddenly sighed: "Hey...... You're old......"
When Wei Shuming heard him say this, he just bowed his head and said nothing, but he had already set off thousands of waves in his heart. On that day more than 20 years ago, he had gray hair overnight, and it was at that time that he had to believe that people never grow old slowly. Sometimes it's just a matter of a moment, and it can make you look through from your eyes to your heart.
Wei Shuming wanted to open his mouth to say something else, but he was always stumbled by the memories in his mind, and he always stumbled in his heart and called out a person's name, but fortunately, Liu Yu suddenly appeared.
The two sat opposite each other, sitting by the window and looking out, Wei Shuming shook his head for a moment, thinking that he had returned to many years ago, and refused to leave in the Taoist temple of Lifu.
"General Wei," Liu Yu pushed the poured tea in front of Wei Shuming, and added, "I haven't seen you for many years, and General Wei still looks like this." ”
The reason why Liu Yu respects Wei Shuming so much is just because Liu Yu has been taught martial arts and military affairs by Wei Shuming since he was a child, and a large part of his ambition in his chest comes from Wei Shuming's indoctrination.
It's just that he didn't expect that Wei Shuming, who taught him like this, had already calculated. From the beginning, he approached him for the sake of his return, which made him somewhat sad.
Liu Yu saw him staring out the window with demented eyes, knowing what he was thinking, so he said softly: "They are all good." ”
Wei Shuming came back to his senses. He smiled a little embarrassedly, picked up the teacup and said, "I haven't seen Master and I for nearly twenty years, but when I see it today, it's really shocking." ”
"I received a message from General Wei saying that there is something important to discuss. I wonder what has happened in the DPRK and China? Liu Yu paused for a moment and went straight to the point.
"The situation between the DPRK and China is as usual, and it is worth mentioning that the Zhu family has taken refuge in the crown prince." Wei Shuming took a sip of the teacup, put it down and said, "It's just that there is indeed something recently that is worth pondering." ”
"What?"
"Liu Yan is investigating the headless case of the year," when Wei Shuming said the first half of the sentence, Liu Yu didn't have much expression until he said the second half of the sentence, "Recently." I feel like they've found out on me. ”
Liu Yu's eyes were shocked, he rarely showed such an expression when he heard the news, and in a moment, his eyes changed again, and he said in a deep voice: "Zishun really impressed me this time." ”
After thinking about it for a while, Liu Yu said again: "He would never have been able to find you, if it weren't for Chu Shenxia's delicate thoughts...... No, I sent someone to monitor the East Palace, and I know their every move......"
Wei Shuming heard this. The green tendons on his forehead suddenly jumped out, met Liu Yu's angry gaze, and muttered, "Could it be ...... Could it be that someone is helping them? ”
"Who else has this ability. It is still unknown that he can do things under our noses, but it is strange that this person is still heading towards the East Palace. Liu Yu thought about many possibilities, but he still didn't confirm it.
A white light flashed in Wei Shuming's mind, and he suddenly thought of someone. Puzzled, he said, "Liu Zhengsheng? ”
"He is a relative, he was just a petty official before, and the Ji family has long disappeared from the court, what can he do?" Liu Yu shook his head, not quite agreeing with Wei Shuming's statement.
"However, he has been coming and going frequently in the East Palace recently, and he seems to be tired." Wei Shuming's eyes narrowed slightly, and he reminded.
"The position of Hubu Shangshu was recommended by Liu Yan, and at that time I investigated Liu Zhengsheng, who was indeed doing things for King Qing before, and then he was grateful to Liu Yan for his kindness, so he turned to work for Liu Yan." Liu Yu thought about it carefully, and said, "I remember that he did things for King Qing before, and he didn't seem to have done anything substantial, just asking for a big tree for shade." ”
Hearing him say this, Wei Shuming also put his mind at ease, but in an instant, he raised his heart again, "Since it's not him, then who will it be?" Is it possible...... Someone...... Defected......"
Liu Yu's eyes flashed with murderous intent, if someone defected, one of his thoughts was the Langya Wang family, Wang Quanming's fox, he still can't figure out his thoughts, saying that he is doing things for himself, but he didn't even mention the matter of forming an alliance with the East Palace, and only when Ruoyu and Liu Yan became relatives did he tell himself that they had pretended to form an alliance.
"I heard that Wang Quanming's girl really likes Liu Yan, and she doesn't know what his father is doing at all, if Wang Quanming thinks that holding the tree of the East Palace, he can maintain his power and not retreat, then he ......" Coincidentally, Wei Shuming and Liu Yu thought of a piece and said what he thought in his heart.
After a pause, Wei Shuming said again: "I think about it now, it's really scary, Wang Quanming has no obsession with recovering the country after all, but he has reached a consensus with us that after the restoration of the country in the future, he will retain his power." However, for so many years, we have always relied on their power in the rivers and lakes, if he had already turned his back, it would be simply a man-made knife and axe and I would be a fish and meat. ”
Liu Yu was uneasy by what he said, got up and went straight to the window, exhaled deeply, closed his eyes and said: "After you go back, you must pay more attention to the Wang family, especially be careful of their eyeliner on the rivers and lakes, don't be discovered, lest you ......"
"I understand, it's getting late, and it's suspicious, so I'll go back." Wei Shuming also got up from the table as he spoke, and was about to go out, when he heard Liu Yu say, "The old man you want to see is in Tan Shuilou a hundred steps away." ”
Wei Shuming was told the central matter, and turned away with a white face.
Before entering Tan Shuilou, Wei Shuming saw the birds of paradise and peony flowers planted on both sides of the road, the birds of paradise and peony flowers across the road, at first glance it was a beautiful scenery, but when Wei Shuming touched the jade pendant on his waist, he felt that the scenery in front of him was too desolate.
Across the road, this is ...... Does this mean never to see each other?
There was a sudden sound of footsteps in the attic, Wei Shuming hurriedly looked up, only to see a woman in a plain robe turned around and entered the room, and then the door slammed shut.
At that moment, it seemed that a thunderbolt struck his heart, and it lasted for a long time, Wei Shuming wanted to lift his feet and walk forward, but he seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and he couldn't lift it, so he had to slowly retreat and leave.
At the same time, Liu Zhengsheng entered the East Palace with ecstatic steps, and rushed straight to Chu Shenxia's courtyard, still unable to hide the joy on his face, and said with a smile: "Sir, I'm here." ”
When Chu Shenxia saw him like this, he really couldn't help but laugh, "Lord Liu, what's the matter, hurry, please inside." ”
Liu Zhengsheng laughed before he could say anything, and only after two words did he say mysteriously: "Sir, guess what big secret I dug up today." ”
"Since it's a secret, then I naturally can't guess." Chu Shenxia shook his head slightly.
"Sir, guess, maybe you guessed?"
Chu Shenxia glanced at him with some astonishment, he was too abnormal today, but seeing that his interest was rare and so good, he followed his words and asked, "Guess?" Something to do with headless cases? Something to do with Wei Shuming? ”
"Mr. is really smart," Liu Zhengsheng no longer sold Guanzi, but at this moment he still did not hide his joy and said, "I saw him leave the house in a hurry today, and I set up eyeliner for fear of being discovered by him, so I didn't continue to follow him." ”
Chu Shenxia couldn't help nodding and motioned for him to continue, Liu Zhengsheng smiled again: "I took advantage of his absence in the mansion to order my eyeliner to sneak into his room to investigate, and it turned out that I really found something." ”
"What?"
Chu Shenxia originally thought that his informant was just seeing something, but before he could say it, Liu Zhengsheng reached out into his cuffs, and took out a piece of paper that was a little wrinkled and yellowed in Chu Shenxia's surprised gaze.
The light in Chu Shenxia's eyes immediately sank, he thought that Liu Zhengsheng was crazy, and he took advantage of Wei Shuming's absence to bring something, but it turned out to be an ordinary piece of paper with some years.
Liu Zhengsheng noticed his somewhat lost look, chuckled, and said, "Sir, don't underestimate this paper, wait for me to show it to Sir." ”
Liu Zhengsheng said and spread the paper on the table, took the teacup again, and sprinkled the water on the paper little by little, and the words on the paper immediately appeared.
However, because of some years, some words are not very clear, and they don't look like one word, and they are roughly inferred to be letters written by one person to another.
Chu Shenxia leaned over and looked at it for a while, only distinguishing one of the words in the upper right corner, and immediately said, "If I guessed correctly, this letter should be addressed to something." ”
"Yes, there seems to be a word in the signature in the lower left corner of the word 斫, I boldly speculate that this word inherited from Liu Qicheng, the king of Qin, is diligent." Liu Zhengsheng stared at Chu Shenxia's face tightly, there was no smile in his eyes, but he said, "I suspect that this is a letter written by King Qin to the empress." ”
"How could King Qin's letter to the queen be in Wei Shuming's room?" Chu Shenxia didn't understand a little, but when he thought about it, he felt cold in his heart, could it be that the letters exchanged between King Qin and the queen back then were all from Wei Shuming's hand?
Liu Zhengsheng's gaze leisurely crossed over Chu Shenxia, looked at the vase behind him and said, "Maybe he was negligent, and there were a few such old pieces of paper in the book that he had abandoned for a long time. At that time, he must have used a special pen and ink to imitate the handwriting of King Qin and the Empress, which will disappear over the years, leaving only a faint fragrance, but as long as it touches the tea, it will reappear. ”
