Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Imperial City Division
Fan Lao's muttering fell on Zhao Lan's ears, which immediately made him sluggish.
This pot is too full of points, when did free love become popular in ancient times. However, Zhao Lan thought about it, and the corners of her mouth immediately curled up with a smile.
Fan Lao, this can be regarded as agreeing in disguise.
Picking up the scabbard that Yunzhu handed him, Zhao Lan looked at it carefully, and slowly inserted the sword into the scabbard.
The scabbard is made of shark skin, there is no hair at the seams, and the fine stitches tightly sew the interface of the scabbard seamlessly, and the sword body is sheathed without any looseness, as if it was born to be customized for the commander to measure the sound.
This is the first time a cadre has inserted the scabbard.
The cadre originally did not have a scabbard, but after Zhao Lan stole it, he has been facing countless battles and assassinations. Naturally, he had never prepared a scabbard for it, and in his opinion, as his right-hand sword, the cadre only needed to show his sword at any time and prepare to face the enemy, so why prepare a cumbersome scabbard.
However, holding the blade of the sword, Zhao Lan rotated the sword twice, inserted it into the belt around his waist, bowed deeply to the door, and walked towards the room where he had been staying.
After solving a lot of things at once, Zhao Lan's mood seemed to be much lighter, and her steps back to the room became brisk.
Inside the house, after Fan Lao walked into the house, he stood in the shadow by the door, looking at Zhao Lan outside the door with Yunzhu, until he walked into another house.
Holding the small teapot to his mouth, Fan Lao took a sip of tea lightly, looked at Yunzhu who was staring at Zhao Lan tightly, and sighed a little helplessly: "Girl, don't look at it, look at your head and stick it out." ”
Yun Zhu couldn't help but blush slightly when she heard Fan Lao's ridicule, took a step back, and then looked at Fan Lao, constantly gesticulating.
Fan Lao watched Yun Zhu keep waving his hands, shook his head, looked at Yun Zhu in front of him and sighed lightly: "This son is not simple, the old man can't figure out his details for the time being." ”
Taking a sip of tea, Fan Lao touched the drip of tea on his beard, and continued: "When the old man saw the wounds all over his body, he thought that he was a brave and ruthless ranger, but when he talked to him, the old man found that his eyes were extremely clear. ”
"However, one of them is a traitor and a murderer, and the other is a person who is loyal to the country, and I am still struggling with which of these two people should this son be."
But looking at Yunzhu's delicate face in front of him, Fan Lao couldn't help but sigh lightly, looked at the big tree outside, and said softly in a helpless tone: "The female lady is not staying, the flower monk said a word, you just want to marry this kid all day long." ”
When Yunzhu heard Fan Lao's words, he immediately stomped his feet, and when he saw Fan Lao looking at the outside with a vicissitudes of life, he turned around and trotted all the way back to his room.
Fan Lao looked outside and was silent for a long time, and finally couldn't help but sigh lightly: "Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, it's just that." ”
After saying that, he turned around and put the small teapot on the table in the room and returned to his room.
Zhao Lan didn't know that Yunzhu girl didn't leave when she returned to the house, but stood in the shadow behind the door and kept observing him, not knowing the conversation between Fan Lao and Yunzhu after entering the house, and she didn't know that just a few days ago when he was rescued and was in a daze with a high fever and a burning brain, a monk came to this village, and said that he and Yunzhu had a previous life and an unfinished marriage, and he was born to continue; I don't know that at this moment, in the capital thousands of miles away, because of his disappearance, in that luxurious Jinluan Palace, his father, the supreme head of this country, is extremely violent because of his disappearance at this moment.
"Smack~"
A red and vermilion piece was thrown to the ground by Zhao Shu, and the wooden cover of the piece smashed on the ground paved with stone bricks, making a crisp sound.
"Waste, the pacification division of Liangzhejiang Road didn't even know how to capture some thieves who were raging on the seaside, and even handed me the chapter to me and let me decide, so what is the use of you, hum!"
Zhao Shu got up and walked around irritably in the vertical arch hall, and after walking left and right twice, he summoned the eunuch who was standing not far away, and shouted in a low voice: "Immediately order, let the general of the left guard, Wang Shi, make an appointment to meet." ”
The eunuch received the order and hurried out, he could see that the mood of the official family was very irritable now, and he did not dare to slack off in the slightest.
Zhao Shu waved his hand to reprimand the eunuch, and continued to walk around the hall impatiently.
"Report, Zhao Lin, the Imperial City Division, will see you."
Just as Zhao Shu had just sat on the dragon chair, ready to continue to deal with the stacked movements, the small yellow door outside the door suddenly prayed. Suddenly came to his senses, and nodded to the other eunuch beside him.
The eunuch understood, walked to the door, and shouted sharply: "Xuan~"
"Minister, Zhao Lin visits the official family."
A young man dressed in a short dark coat who looked like an ordinary peasant walked into the vertical arch hall and bowed respectfully to Zhao Shu on the dragon chair.
"No need to be polite, Zhao Lin has some news, but it doesn't hurt to say it."
Zhao Shu waved his hand and motioned for Zhao Lin under the stairs to get up directly.
Zhao Lin was not surnamed Zhao, just because when Zhao Shu was not yet the emperor, he had served as a training envoy of the Yuezhou regiment, and he knew this Zhao Lin, and saw that he had some talent in reconnaissance, so he took him under his command. Until he became the emperor, he gave this person the surname Zhao, entered the Imperial City Division, and became the director.
Zhao Lin got up, took out a picture scroll from his sleeve, took two steps forward, and handed it to the dragon case. Then he retreated to the bottom of the stairs and continued to say respectfully: "Your Majesty and your brothers surveyed for a few days, and finally found out some news from the market, the troublemakers on the night of the summer solstice were a group of merchants from Shandong, who were doing the business of selling rice, but since the night of the summer solstice, they went to the empty building, and left a bunch of grain carts and disappeared. ”
Zhao Shu heard what he said, opened the picture scroll in his hand, looked at several pictures of people on the picture scroll, frowned and asked, "This person is the culprit who kidnapped Lan'er?" ”
Zhao Lin nodded, and then continued to take out two small thistles from his sleeve, and motioned to the eunuchs beside him to give them to Zhao Shu.
"According to his subordinates and others along the Yellow River all the way to the east, until the border of Haizhou, they finally saw this in the woods on the bank."
Zhao Shu took the thistle terrestris, looked at it in front of him, and then put it on the desk, frowned at Zhao Lin who was standing at the bottom of the stairs, and asked suspiciously, "What is this?" ”
"I don't know if the official family still remembers the iron watermelon that he took from the firearms camp ten years ago." Zhao Lin looked up at Zhao Shu in front of him and reminded: "According to the investigation of his subordinates, on the night of the summer solstice, he will be a prisoner, and the Ordnance Mansion has also been looted by many people, among them, seventeen thistles specially ordered by His Majesty Renzong to be listed as a prohibited item have also been stolen. ”
Zhao Shu's eyes shrank, he looked at the iron tribulus in front of him repeatedly, looked at the slight dark red blood stains stained at the peak of the tribulus, frowned and asked, "But there are still discoveries?" ”
Zhao Lin nodded, and then continued: "His Majesty also found two lonely graves in the forest, but after digging them open, it was not His Royal Highness King Mo who was buried in the tomb, and after verification, it was determined that they were among the thieves. ”
Zhao Shu, who was sitting on the dragon chair, put down the thistle terrestris in his hand, knocked his fingers on the table, looked at Zhao Lin at the bottom of the stairs, was silent for a long time, and frowned after a long time and asked, "What else?" ”
