Chapter 226: A wisp of red dust and a wisp of smoke

The command of the ordinary old man made the adult suddenly become like a bully of men and women, Tang Long opened his mouth several times to ask, but in the end he didn't ask.

Although Zhang Ru saw the doubts of his subordinates, he did not explain too much.

In his eyes, Tang Long is just his subordinate for the time being, and he has not yet reached the point of being a henchman, even if he needs to explain, it is not for Tang Long.

didn't go back to the Thousand Households, let Tang Long take people back, and he himself went out on the street alone.

Zhang Ru, who had temporarily changed his clothes, was holding a folding fan in his hand, no matter how he looked at it, he looked like a handsome son, not a powerful commander of the Jinyi Guard.

From time to time, he would lean his head to the street vendor to bargain for a few words, pick up something from the vendor's stall and taste a few bites, and then flee with the disdain of the small vendors.

No one noticed when the young man entered an inconspicuous house, and no one noticed how long the young man stayed in the house.

"What's the situation?" After being led into the inner courtyard by the little servant, a middle-aged man like a thin bamboo pole respectfully asked Zhang Ru to sit down. Zhang Ru's butt hadn't sat down yet, so he asked bluntly.

The middle-aged man said: "It's not a big deal, he left Datong some time ago, and reappeared in Datong Mansion City after half a month." There were people who followed him all the way, but he was very vigilant, and he got rid of my people in less than a hundred miles. ”

"Didn't find anything?" Zhang Ru frowned and asked.

The middle-aged man shook his head and said: "There is no movement, I only know that he went to the capital, and no one knows how he entered the capital." Your Excellency also knows that those under my command are no match for those who ride the clouds. ”

In terms of fighting, the single attack power of the people riding the clouds is the highest, and in terms of spying, it is the people under the command of this middle-aged man who are more elite.

Zhang Ru groaned: "That's right, you continue to stare at it, now that everyone is in a coma, there shouldn't be any more problems in a short period of time." Let your people check the big family surnamed Jiang in Xinyang, and by the way, check what Ke Xiong is from. Focus on checking a woman named Jiang Caiwei, secretly investigate, and don't let anyone know. ”

The middle-aged man was puzzled: "Why are adults suddenly interested in a woman?" ”

Zhang Ru said: "Jiang Wei was assassinated, it was a strange woman who saved him, you should know about this." ”

The middle-aged man nodded to indicate that he knew, but there was still doubt in his eyes.

Zhang Ru said again: "Do you know what that woman looks like?" ”

The middle-aged man shook his head: "Could it be that the woman is the best in the world?" Didn't the adults fall in love with other women again? ”

Zhang Ru rolled his eyes, almost lost his breath, and said with a straight face: "Don't talk about those useless ones, there are seven and seven, where do I have other thoughts." Do you know how I felt when I met her? ”

"What?" The middle-aged man took over the conversation: "Adults are young, some things are inevitable, and their subordinates are also men, so they won't make fun of adults." ”

Zhang Ru shook his head and said, "Jin Zhong, I won't tell you, I was also startled at first." Jiang Caiwei and Su Qiqi are two completely different personalities, and the places where they were born are also 108,000 miles apart, but the temperament of the two makes me feel very similar.

You know what Qiqi's identity is, Jiang Wei turned the world upside down in Datong Mansion, and many incense halls of the White Lotus Sect were taken away by him. But when he was assassinated, a person with a temperament similar to Qiqi suddenly appeared, which I can't help but doubt.

Jiang Wei betrayed me and betrayed Jinyiwei, but he has not done anything to hurt me and Jinyiwei so far. Until he betrays him completely, he will remain our brother.

However, this deliberately approaching Jiang Caiwei is not simple, her martial arts are not low, and there are many good players around her, I have seen those green forest men, I am afraid that everyone has a few lives in their hands.

With such a family background, he suddenly appeared in Datong, and he coincidentally saved the thousands of households of Jinyiwei, don't you think it's strange? ”

The middle-aged man was Ma Jinzhong, who was ordered to investigate Jiang Wei, but he never found anything substantial.

Hearing this, Ma Jinzhong's expression was solemn: "What do you mean that Mrs. and this Jiang Caiwei are likely to be in the same class?" ”

Zhang Ru nodded with a heavy face: "Well, it is very likely that there is a connection between them." I didn't ask Qiqi about this for the time being, and I didn't even say anything about Wang Zhou and Fan Tong. You first check what the person named Jiang Caiwei is, and then ask someone to send me the information after finding out. Remember, only I know your whereabouts. ”

Ma Jinzhong said seriously: "Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates will live up to their mission." ”

"If there is any difficulty in doing things here, you can find Tang Long, don't come forward in person, just take my token and go to him." Zhang Ru admonished.

Ma Jinzhong smiled: "Don't worry, my lord! If a subordinate is in trouble, he will definitely ask an adult for help. Oh yes, my lord, the young man who claimed to be the defender of Yajiao Mountain has made a lot of progress during this time, and the Tatar side has sent people to Datong several times, but they have been blocked by Yang Rong. When do you think this boy will be sent back? ”

Zhang Ru looked relaxed: "It's not us who are most anxious about this matter, it's the Tatars on the grassland." It's okay, let that kid learn first, when he can not show his feet, and when to send people back. ”

After being silent for a while, Ma Jinzhong suddenly asked, "My lord, dog." ”

Zhang Ru smiled: "Don't worry, the child in the same robe is very good, Qiqi treats him as his own, and he will not be treated badly by anything on weekdays." This kid is very smart, I found two gentlemen for him, maybe I can give your old Ma family a champion back in the future. ”

Ma Jin Zhongxi said: "Thank you for your cultivation." ”

Zhang Ru patted him on the shoulder: "They are all their own brothers, what do you say about cultivating or not cultivating." I also like that kid, but I'm too busy to find time. However, with Fan Lao and Qiqi here, the child can't suffer anywhere. ”

As soon as he heard that Fan Wuyi was close to him, Ma Jinzhong was completely relieved. Others don't know what Fan Wuyi is capable of, but he knows best.

"You still have to keep an eye on the affairs here, especially the Tartar side of the thief's heart, and your people had better infiltrate it as soon as possible." Zhang Ru said with some concern.

The Ming border troubles, the most serious is the Tatars, others don't know, but he knows that in a few decades, the Japanese on the southeast coast will make waves.

It's not that there are no Japanese pirates along the coast now, it's just that they are not as rampant as they were a few decades later.

Ma Jinzhong asked tentatively, "My lord, what are we going to do here?" ”

Zhang Ru said: "It's just prepared, the Tartar vitality is greatly damaged, but they will not let go of any opportunity to invade the Ming Dynasty." Instead of sitting back and waiting, it's better to prepare early. Sooner or later, one day, I will take the Ming army to the grassland, and one more person infiltrates now, and there will be one more chance of winning in the future. ”

Ma Jinzhong, who had experienced several life and death, couldn't help but clench his fists after hearing this. As a member of the border army, as a hot-blooded man of the Ming Dynasty, everyone hopes for the day when they will wave their troops on the grassland.

He may not believe what others say, but Zhang Ru, who contributed to the Great Tong War, said this, and he believed it.

"By the way, your people must ensure that the family is under your control, and I want absolute loyalty, otherwise, it will only cause damage to the brothers when the war comes." Zhang Ru told again and again.

Traitors are the most shameful, but many people can't resist the temptation of gold and silver treasures and high-ranking officials. Zhang Ru himself didn't dare to guarantee whether he could guarantee the absolute loyalty of those people by controlling those dark chess families in his hands, he could only say that he did his best.

Ma Jinzhong also knew this, so he didn't say obey, only said I will do my best.

After analyzing the general situation, Zhang Ru directly left it alone, except for letting Ma Jinzhong be ready to keep an eye on Jiang Wei at any time, he did not make any other requirements.

It was not early, Zhang Ru got up and was about to leave, Ma Jinzhong, who had been holding back a question, couldn't help but ask the question when he sent Zhang Ru out: "If Jiang Caiwei really has something to do with his wife, what should I do?" ”

Zhang Ru's figure was stunned, and he looked into the distance with a complicated expression: "The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, if there is anything, let's talk about it when the time comes!" Now, I don't know what to do if that happens. ”

Ma Jinzhong raised his hand and patted Zhang Ru's back: "One step is one step!" Adults don't have to worry too much, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge. ”

Zhang Ru smiled bitterly: "Borrow your auspicious words, I'll leave first, and inform Tang Long in time if there is anything." ”

"Don't worry, sir." Ma Jinzhong nodded vigorously, and then watched Zhang Ru leave.

As soon as Zhang Ru went out, he immediately resumed his posture, but it was already approaching dusk, and there were many fewer pedestrians on the road, and no one cared why he didn't bring a few powerful domestic servants.

Back at the Thousand Households, the innocent Tang Long appeared in front of Zhang Ru with a bruised face, his eyes full of grievances.

Zhang Ruqi said: "What's the matter, who beat you?" ”

Tang Long glanced at Fan Tongyi timidly, not daring to speak.

Zhang Ru looked up, and saw that Fan Tong and Wang Zhou were both angry, and he immediately reacted, it is estimated that Tang Long brought people back by himself and did not let anyone protect him, so it made Fan Tong and Wang Zhou Thunder angry.

smiled very easily, walked up to Fan Tong and patted him on the shoulder: "It's nothing, go out and hang around, what kind of anger are you making at Tang Long!" ”

Wang Zhou said lukewarmly: "Adults are really not worry-free, there is already Lao Jiang's experience there, can't adults bring a few people around?" ”

Fan Tong snorted and did not speak.

Zhang Ru smiled bitterly: "I said that you are too nervous, you don't know my skills, what can happen in this blue sky." ”

Fan Tong said angrily: "A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. ”

Zhang Ru deliberately enlivened the atmosphere: "Yo, our General Fan still knows about dragging the text, a miracle!" ”

Fan Tong turned his face away: "Jiang Wei is awake, go and take a look!" ”

After that, he and Wang Zhou left arrogantly as if they had discussed, leaving Zhang Ru with two huge backs.
