Zhang Yushi recalled the news obtained from the investigation in the past few days, and said: "I heard that Huang Ziren and Xu Liang were originally brothers, but later due to various reasons, the relationship between the two is extremely poor now, and they are like passers-by. ”

Lu Tongzhi sighed: "Lord Qincha really thinks so. ”

Zhang Yushi said: "Listen to what you mean, is there anything untrue in this?" ”

Lu Tongzhi waved his fist and shouted angrily: "This is the most insidious thing about Xu Liang. The ministers of the court, including the lower officials, were almost deceived by them. Adults only heard some rumors, and Xu Liang is very good at disguise, we only think that these two people have deep contradictions, but few people know that Huang Ziren's wife and the eldest lady of Xu Mansion are close cousins, Xu Liang and Huang Ziren do have few contacts in officialdom, but in private, these two ladies often move around. Do you think these two ladies would have been like this without the permission of the head of the house? ”

Zhang Yushi listened suspiciously, and then questioned: "However, after this official has verified, in the Xichengmen incident, Huang Tongzhi's confidant Liu Ge almost shot Xu Liang's confidant and beloved general Dai Feng to death with one arrow. Xu Liang was furious, and personally led his troops to Anton Zhongwei to arrest Liu Ge and kill him to vent his anger! Many people have seen this with their own eyes, so it can't be fake, right? ”

Lu Tongzhi thought about it, frowned and said puzzledly: "This is also what Xia Guan has not been able to understand at first. But then Huang Tongzhi's reaction once again confirmed Xiaguan's conjecture. Xia Guan suspects that the entire West City Gate incident was secretly manipulated and sung by Xu Liang and Huang Ziren! ”

"Lord Qincha has been investigating this matter, and he should know better than the lower officials, after Liu Ge was killed. Huang Tongzhi has been very silent, and has no intention of finding Xu Fu to seek justice for Liu Ge. A more important point. There are rumors outside that Liu Ge was killed by Xu Liang. However, who saw the corpse of the dead Liu Ge? Xiaguan specially went to Anton Zhongwei to inquire, and after Liu Baihu died, the body was not handed over to Anton Zhongwei. ”

"Is there a problem here?" Zhang Yushi took a deep breath and asked in surprise.

Lu Tongzhi was slightly embarrassed, coughed lightly, and said: "It is said that this matter is not about the lower officials, but the lower officials really can't get used to Xu Liang being powerful in the Pingliang Mansion, and they can't bear to be deceived by him." Originally, these words should not have been said by the officials, but since Lord Zhang asked. The subordinate official took it as a small talk, and said to Master Zhang. Xia Guan first stated that this was only Xia Guan's conjecture, and there was no evidence at all. ”

"Oh, I understand! Today, the two of you are just chatting, and what Lord Lu said and felt today can come out of your mouth and into my ears, and will never let a third person hear it. Zhang Yushi urged, "What does Lord Lu think?" Come on, please. ”

"The lower official focused on inquiring about the origin of this sharpshooter Liu Ge, and if he didn't check it, he didn't know, and he was shocked when he checked it!" Lu Tong knew, "No one would have thought of it." This Liu Baihu had been following Huang Tongzhi before coming to Pingliang, but he had been patrolling the camp in Jianchang, Jiangxi. Liu Baihu in the Zhenyuan Inspection Department is regarded as the backbone force, and he not only won the trust of Huang Ziren. And Xu Liang himself admires him very much. In other words, Liu Ge is this person. He has a very good relationship with Xu Liang and Huang Ziren. Thinking of Liu Ge's amazing archery skills, Xia Guan suspected that the so-called killing of Liu Ge was probably a trick made by Xu Liang. ”

"But, even so, if he is a big living person, where can Xu Liang hide?"

"Oh, Lord Qincha doesn't know about this!" Lu Tong knew: "Our Pingliang Tong knows Xu Liang, but he is not just a court official, the business under the name of the Xu Mansion is all over the northwest, I heard that the Xu Mansion also has business contacts in the provinces south of the Yangtze River, this world is big, it is too easy to hide a person!" ”

When Zhang Yushi heard this, he stopped talking in a daze, and his face changed. Lu Tongzhi gave too much information today, and Zhang Yushi couldn't fully digest it for a while.

Lu Tongzhi waited for a while, sighed lightly, and arched his hand with a gloomy expression: "The lower officials still have some fundamental matters to deal with, so I have left!" ”

Lu Tongzhi turned around and opened the door, raised his feet and walked out, behind him, Zhang Yushi suddenly asked, "Why did Lord Lu sue the official for this?" ”

Lu Tongzhi paused, and said in a deep voice: "The lower officials are loyal to the court and the saints, and seeing that Lord Qincha is frowning all day long, he has the heart to help the lord. ”

"Humph!" Zhang Yushi snorted coldly and said, "Lord Lu's words are not too hypocritical?" ”

Lu Tongzhi was silent, and finally said hatefully: "Don't hide it, Pingliang has Xu Liang reigning for one day, and I, Lu Yifa, will never come out!" Xu Liang fell, and I had a chance. With that, Lu Tongzhi walked out.

Zhang Yushi sat in the room again and thought quietly for a while, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth. Lu Tongzhi's words, Zhang Yushi naturally did not believe it all, however, the various possibilities proposed by Zhang Yushi made Zhang Yushi's heart suddenly grow like weeds, and from time to time teased Zhang Yushi's thinking. When I think of Wang Gonggong, I think of Xu Liang, and when I think of Xu Liang, I can't help but think of his relationship with Huang Ziren, and the time when the West City Gate incident happened is too coincidental, and the time when Xu Liang left Jingning City is too coincidental......

Zhang Yushi sneakily walked around Pingliang City for two days, and secretly visited some clues, and on a gloomy afternoon, Zhang Yushi invited Pingliang and Lu Yifa to the room, closed the door and talked secretly for more than two hours.

Zhang Yushi and Lu Tongzhi's actions naturally can't hide from the eyes of people with hearts. Pingliang Tuiguan Huang Daozhou saw Lu Tongzhi running to Qincha's room every now and then, and sometimes in the corridor of the prefect's yamen, the two were also muttering while walking, and when the two were muttering, they touched Huang Tuiguan passing by, and the two of them stopped talking, and when Huang Tuiguan walked by, the two began to mutter again.

Even muttering has to avoid Huang Tuiguan, naturally there will be no good thing.

Huang Tuiguan naturally knew that he didn't have anything worth avoiding in himself, and what they wanted to avoid was not his Zodiac Zhou, but Xu Liang behind Zodiac Zhou.

However, since Xu Liang was questioned that day, he rarely came to the prefect's yamen. Huang Daozhou felt a faint sense of uneasiness in his heart, so he rushed to Xu's mansion and prepared to wake up Xu Liang.

However, it was very unfortunate that Xu Liang was not in the house and went to the camp of Jitou Mountain in the south of Zhenyuan City. Huang Daozhou felt that his information was very important to Xu Liang, although he was not a person in the Liang army system, but he couldn't take care of it much at this time, so he asked the family members of the Xu Mansion to prepare a carriage and hurriedly rushed to the Jitou Mountain camp to find Xu Liang.

It is the time of the cold winter wax moon, the autumn harvest of the military tun of the Jitou Mountain camp has ended, and the soldiers have no major events on weekdays, some of them are arranged to open up the wasteland, and some of them stay in the camp. Huang Daozhou's carriage followed the check of the guards at the gate of the camp, inquired about the place where Xu Liang was, and walked all the way through the camp to the back mountain, through the carriage window, Huang Daozhou saw the idle soldiers in the camp lying on the simple wooden planks in twos and threes, basking in the rare sun, lazy and comfortable.

When the carriage arrived at the back mountain, a cannon was suddenly heard, followed by the cheers of the crowd. Huang Daozhou got out of the carriage and followed the direction of the cannon to find it alone.

Walking through a sloping dam, Huang Daozhou saw an open meadow in front of him, withered yellow weeds lying on the yellow sand, and the cold north wind blew, rolling up a shallow layer of dust.

Xu Liang was surrounded by a group of people, and at his feet was a Franc machine cannon that looked much less than the ordinary Franc cannon, but the system was very different from the impression of Huang Daozhou, the barrel was placed on a two-wheeled car, and the bottom of the barrel was supported by an iron rod with a circle of threads, and a curved groove was installed where the shells were placed on the gun body.

Huang Daozhou got closer, only to see that Xu Liang put one hand on the back of the gun, shaking a round handle, and pushing the gun body, and the tail of the gun barrel moved along the angle of the arc, it turned out that Xu Liang was through it to adjust the horizontal direction of the muzzle.

Xu Liang said with a smile: "Lord Huang actually found here, just right, you have a blessing for your eyes!" Look at my newly designed artillery! Xu Liang adjusted the height and angle, took the torch handed by an artillery battalion soldier, and ignited the fuse, which ignited a little green smoke, which burned into the shell in a blink of an eye.

Rumble! There was a loud bang, and Huang Daozhou only felt a buzzing in his ears, and he heard the cheers of everyone. Huang Daozhou raised his eyes and saw the direction pointed by the muzzle, a hundred steps ahead, in the middle of several piles of fresh earth, where the shells hit, leaving a small pit, and the withered grass next to it had been led and emitting green smoke.

Xu Liang shook his head dissatisfied, and said to Sima Qiudao and several artillery battalion generals behind him: "There is still a problem with the angle, you can adjust it again." ”

After that, Xu Liang walked towards Huang Daozhou and said with a smile: "Why are you here?" ”

Huang Daozhou stepped forward and anxiously told Xu Liang about Pingliang Tongzhi Lu Yifa's abnormal behavior in the past few days, as well as Huang Daozhou's worries. At the end, Huang Daozhou said disdainfully and angrily: "My lord, this Lu Yifa is too ungrateful!" If it weren't for the adults who recovered Pingliang City, how could Lu Yifa be today! When this villain saw that Qin had arrived, he hurriedly roared to go up and hug his thighs, without any shame! ”

"Hmm......" Xu Liang listened quietly, sighed lightly, pointed to the small cannon that Sima Qiudao was messing with, and said, "What do you think I should give it a name?" ”

Huang Daozhou stopped, was stunned for a long time, and asked in amazement: "My lord, you don't seem to care much?" ”

Xu Liang looked at Huang Daozhou strangely and said, "Should I be angry?"

"Lu Yifa and Zhang Nianyun got together, he betrayed you!" Huang Daozhou shouted angrily.

Xu Liang thought for a while, nodded seriously, and said, "Okay, this official is very angry now!" (To be continued......)
