Chapter 169: People are thinner than yellow flowers
Han Rong entered Beijing, and it was impossible to come back for the time being, and the seal letter of the governor of Zhili should be taken care of by the governor of Zhili. However, Han Rong specially issued an order, and Yuan Weiting protected the seal, and the intention of carrying it was already very obvious. When Zhao Guanhou got out of the car from the old dragon's head, the carriage and horses of the Yamen had been waiting there for a long time, and they came all the way to the Yamen of the Governor of Zhili, and saw Yuan Weiting, who was the protector of the seal.
The last time there was a turmoil, it caused a lot of fright to Yuan Weiting, but then the palace change happened, and the queen mother imprisoned the son of heaven, killed the minister, and trained the government again. He also knew that he had not bet on the wrong person for this treasure. And there were correspondence with Zhao Guanhou, which also reassured Yuan Weiting that Han Rong and the Queen Mother had no intention of poisoning him.
Shandong carjacking case, he has also gotten the news, and after taking a seat, he first dismissed his subordinates, and then asked a few gossips, and the topic naturally turned to the Shandong case.
"Among the kidnapped meat tickets this time, there is a very important person, and you also know it, it is Miss Hannah...... Your Excellency Basens, now that you have gone to Shandong to discuss the matter, here are your acquaintances, so you must be more careful in doing things. ”
Zhao Guanhou was stunned for a moment, and said secretly: This girl, every time she enters China, she will be caught by robbers. It is true that a woman falls into a den of thieves, and the prospects are indeed not good, but his feelings for Hannah are not deep, and this kind of thing is useless in a hurry, so he let it go and does not say too much.
Yuan Weiting said: "Among the tickets that were taken this time, there was an Albiang who was killed on the spot when he shot back when the bandits hijacked the car. Fortunately, he has no identity, just a veteran, and it would be nice to pay some compensation. But those who are important must not be injured, otherwise, this matter will be difficult to do. ”
As he spoke, he pondered, "The matter in Shandong is a little strange. The robbers kidnap people, and the figure is nothing more than ransom. Xiang is to catch so many foreigners at one time, and the person who is trying to do it is either a lot of money, or a gun and bullet, and the biggest possibility is to recruit An. ”
"No matter what the plan is, someone has to come out to talk, otherwise the information between the two will not work, and the situation will go from slow to urgent, and finally out of control. However, the current situation is that since the carjacking case, the bandits have not sent anyone to communicate with the government, and they have not asked for food or silver, which is quite puzzling. If what I expected is true, I'm afraid someone is getting in the way. Guanhou, you are so bad, it's not easy to do. ”
Zhao Guanhou smiled bitterly, "Brother-in-law, what you said is very true. I have no food or pay, and I have no authority, so I only send me there to run errands, and if Yuxian refuses to admit it, I have nothing to do. This errand is very difficult to do. Those bandits want food and wages, and even if I want to give them, what will I give? ”
Yuan Weiting said: "If you want food and salary, it's always easy to do, but if you can't do it, you can borrow it." Don't you know Mrs. Jensen, and if you borrow a debt from her, you can always make up for it. Wait until the future...... The court will never deny this debt, nor will it fail to pay it. The really difficult thing is Zhao'an. Yuxian is very anxious to suppress bandits in Shandong, in case these strongmen are thinking about Zhao'an, you don't have authority, how can you do it? This requires you to think of a way, delay for a little longer, in short, to keep those foreigners from dying, there is a discussion. ”
Zhao Guanhou understood that Yuan Weiting's meaning was to let himself agree first, whether it was Zhao'an or money and food, as long as the lives of foreigners were saved, they would promise first. As for cashing, as soon as Yuxian leaves, Yuan Weiting will patrol Shandong, whether it is money or Zhao'an, he can cash out.
At present, the first priority is to keep the foreigners from dying, and the second is to squeeze Yuxian away and vacate this position. If Zhao Guanhou can't rescue the foreigners, maybe Yuxian will sit more steadily in order to deal with the aftermath, which is also a great disadvantage for Yuan.
As far as the Jin court is concerned, this case involves the situation in Shandong and cannot be taken lightly. As far as Yuan Weiting is concerned, it is about his own future, and he should not be taken lightly. Losing this opportunity, I don't know how many years I will have to endure if I want to be a governor in the future, after all, there are many alternate servants of Dajin, and not everyone has the opportunity to be appointed governor, so with his guidance, it is absolutely sincere and does not contain any falsehood.
In order to prevent accidents, Huo Qiu and the Yuan brothers, the two old subordinates, all had to follow, and seven more skilled and one-handed guns were selected from the artillery team to follow, and Zhao Guanhou himself had to go home to take a crucial object, or he dared to take this errand this time, also because of this guarantee.
"Guanhou, this dagger...... Are you saying that this carjacking was the shopkeeper Sun? "Su Hanzhi saw him return home, first turned over the dagger, and then heard him talk about his errand, and his heart was very uneasy." If she had committed such a big case, and we had helped her in the first place, would it have brought any disaster and been implicated? ”
"Almost, the person who can do such a big case, the first is bold, and the second is powerful. On Mengyin's side, there are not many people who have the strength to do this case. Even if it wasn't Shopkeeper Sun who did it himself, there must be dealings with that side, so let her be a middleman. If she really did it, for the sake of saving her life in the first place, it might be more convenient to ask for someone. Now I just beg her not to be confused, tear up the ticket, if it really comes to that point...... The past friendship can't be talked about, and everyone has to rely on guns and bullets to speak. ”
Su Hanzhi was a little timid, "Guanhou, if that's the case, will you be in danger?" I've heard that the robbers aren't all righteous, in case she's going to poison you? ”
"It's not that the robbers don't pay much attention to righteousness, but they basically don't pay much attention to righteousness. When I talk to them about righteousness, I don't understand it, and what I want to talk to them about is not righteousness, but profit. What's the use of them killing these foreigners? On the contrary, let the foreigners go, ask for money and money, ask for guns and guns, as long as they are willing to release people, everything will be discussed, and if they don't let go, they will be scattered in two. As long as you are not a fool, you can figure it out. ”
Although the matter was very urgent, Zhao Guanhou still set the train for the next day, and tonight, he wanted to be with his wife. He felt indebted to Su Hanzhi in his heart, so he was extremely gentle, but Su Hanzhi shook his head and said, "Don't ...... Don't waste your efforts in a field like mine that doesn't produce crops. Marry a young one as soon as possible, and continue the incense for your family, I can't hurt you. You see...... How is Fengxi? ”
Zhao Guanhou smiled: "She? I still remember the ghost look of her rubbing croton on her face, who gave her a ...... "Feng Xi outside the door originally knew what Su Hanzhi meant, and he was dissatisfied in his heart. But thinking that his brother had killed his father, he only had to pay off his brother's debts, and everything he suffered was the retribution suffered on behalf of his brother, and he saved the heart of feeding tigers and eagles.
How do you know that when you hear such a discussion, you can't help but be secretly angry, "Bastard!" If it weren't for the sake of Mrs. Niang's heart, I would have given you a few crotons in your meal tonight, so that you know that you know that it is amazing! ”
When it was time to eat that night, Jiang Fengzhi volunteered, "Senior brother, you go to Shandong and take me." I'm also very familiar with people in Shandong. You don't have to look for the shopkeeper Sun, there is our fellow door in Shandong, and it is very convenient to find someone there. Zhao Laozhu of Plum Blossom Boxing is of the same generation as my father, and they are all my grandfather's disciples. He heard that he was very famous in Shandong, and when I mentioned my uncle there, I promised to find someone. ”
Zhao Guanhou smiled, "Senior sister, you are a big girl, I'm afraid it's inconvenient, right?" It's a bandit den, and it's not good for you to go up the mountain alone. Or, let Master come with me, he is an old man with a great reputation, and his prestige is enough, so he can speak better. ”
"My dad won't go! You are here to save foreigners, if my father goes to help you say this, he will lose face. Really, if you don't take me down, it's not uncommon for you to take whoever you like. Jiang Fengzhi slammed the bowl on the table, turned his head and walked out. Su Hanzhi sighed helplessly
"Guanhou, you too, Feng Zhi is such a hairy temper, and you always make her unhappy. When she finally went home, she was not happy to make trouble, so why bother? Can't you take her with you? ”
"It's a den of thieves, it's not a good ......"
Su Hanzhi smiled: "What are you taking her to the thief's den for?" Anyway, you have a place to live, so don't let her go up the mountain. She has been a tomboy since she was a child, and she has kung fu, and she has a lot of colleagues in Shandong to protect her, so she will not suffer. She's just fun, and she may not be able to help you much, but it's good to follow you to have fun. She is naturally active, she accompanies me here every day, she can't go anywhere, and she really suffers her, so I should do me a favor and take her away. ”
Zhao Guanhou said in his heart: There was no problem with taking Fengzhi on this trip. But lonely men and widows are inevitably suspicious, not to mention that the last time Jiang Bu was rescued, the relationship between the two was no longer as simple as a simple senior sister and younger brother. If you go down this time, I'm afraid it will be even more troublesome.
He is not resistant to taking concubines, but Su Hanzhi can't have children, if he takes the initiative to take a concubine at this time, he is afraid that she will be unhappy, and he will have to wait for a suitable opportunity. Since she came out to say something, she had to say: "I'll figure out a way for official matters, and if my senior sister wants to go, I'll help her arrange it." But sister, where are you leaving people? ”
"It's okay, Feng Xi is with me." Su Hanzhi pointed to Feng Xi when she was on the side, "She has a lot of strength, and her fists and feet are good, with her by my side, it will be fine." ”
At night, Jiang Fengzhi also knew that she could finally go along, so she hurriedly prepared her luggage, prepared the set of clothes made by herself with her own money, found a few more changes, and sprayed the perfume on her body a few times. Su Hanzhi was in the same shape as her, and took out a few sets of her excellent clothes, "Bring these ones too, don't be aggrieved." Also, go to Shandong and ...... for me Take care of him and don't let him suffer. ”
Jiang Fengzhi smiled heartlessly, and grabbed Su Hanzhi's arm again, "Sister Hanzhi, that Sun shopkeeper, she didn't look like a good person at the beginning." Maybe An's heart, with me, don't worry, I will definitely drive the fox spirit away. This house is ours, and no outsiders can enter. ”
Su Hanzhi's heart was like knocking over the five-flavor bottle, but he still barely pretended to be smiling, "Silly sister, don't treat other people's shopkeepers as bad people, on other people's territory, we still have to rely on the hot family to take care of it." You, don't let the crown marquis be ruined, as for other things, I don't care anymore. You know my sickness, and as long as the crown is good, I will rejoice. You go to bed early today, I'll call you tomorrow, don't miss the car. ”
In the bedroom, Feng Xi saw Zhao Guanhou put down a large stack of manuscripts, she knew a few words, but when she peeked over, there were most foreign languages, so she didn't recognize any of them. I wanted to ask, but when I thought that this person was so hateful, I swallowed it back. It wasn't until Su Hanzhi came back that Zhao Guanhou said:
"The rest of the thief Luo Ping is here, sister remember to give it to Lao Xiong. Don't give it all at once, give it slowly, catch him. Here, it's a new book, called Detective Polo...... I said Fengxi, can you have some rules, I'm talking to your wife, what are you laughing at, go out! ”
Although he was kicked out, Feng Xi still smiled, "Detective pineapple, how can there be fresh goods here?" This Zhao Guanhou is interesting, he wrote something by himself to make his wife famous, but I don't know what he is drawing. ”
But in retrospect, when a woman in her hometown marries her husband, she can't show her face, and if she can't have children like her wife, she will have to be divorced. Mrs. Su is obviously unable to have children, but her husband does not despise her, but helps her earn a good reputation, compared with the two, she is still happier, this man is not inadequate for his wife.
She looked at Jiang Fengzhi's door again, and snorted softly, "Good sister, it doesn't count if you enter the house, you have to dig the corner of your sister's wall, it's not authentic...... Poor lady......"
In the early morning of the next day, when Zhao Guanhou got up, Su Hanzhi carefully combed his hair, and his outfit had already been tidied up, but it was effortless. When I went downstairs, I saw Jiang Fengzhi waiting downstairs with a luggage roll. She sprayed some Capetian perfume on her body, bursts of fragrance, while lowering her head, she gently rubbed the corners of her clothes, and only after seeing Zhao Guanhou did she pretend to smile generously
"Senior brother, you see that I got up early, right? Finally, we didn't delay your business, let's go quickly. Sister Hanzhi, don't worry, with me watching, junior brother doesn't dare to come nonsense......"
Sending the two to the door, seeing Jiang Fengzhi and her husband laughing and walking out, Su Hanzhi only felt as if someone had stabbed her heart, and she dug out a piece of meat from her heart, and then left in such a grand manner. The autumn wind was bleak and cold, she tightened the clothes on her body, and said to Feng Xi: "Close the door, let's go back, I have a little cold ...... on my body."
The heavy wooden door closes slowly, blocking out the autumn sun and the bleak autumn wind. Looking at Su Hanzhi's back, Feng Xi only felt that Mrs. Su, who was like a bodhisattva, seemed to have aged a lot in an instant. Her body was so thin, like a withered leaf, ready to be blown to the ground in the merciless autumn wind. (To be continued.) )
