Chapter 215: Falling into a Trap
At noon that day, Xiong Kaiyuan personally escorted the materials across the Yuhe, and the construction site was still in full swing, but unlike before, he could clearly feel heavily guarded. It was not Gao Shiming who came out to greet him, but Li Xin, the chief soldier of the Three Guards, which surprised him.
Compared with Gao Shiming, who is fierce and inward-looking, Xiong Kaiyuan's subconscious is even more afraid of this chief soldier of the three guards. Li Xin's arrival made him feel uncomfortable, could it be that they noticed something? Immediately rejected this idea, and the person who handled this matter was separated by several hands, and it was much easier to find the evidence on his head than to ascend to the sky.
Looking at Li Xin's attitude as usual, it is still a lukewarm attitude, Xiong Kaiyuan also understands that he has cheated Li Xin too many times, and it stands to reason that he can't solve the knot of enmity with this guy, and it is not easy to do this.
The two of them had a simple greeting, and the military officials of their own resettlement station came forward to receive the supplies, but Li Xin just watched coldly, did not interfere in specific affairs, and did not mean to let Xiong Kaiyuan enter the tent to rest and serve tea.
Xiong Kaiyuan is also the governor of the first house, and he naturally can't get over it when he receives such a cold reception, so he coughs a few times to hide his embarrassment. Unexpectedly, it was okay not to cough, but as soon as he coughed, Li Xin directly retired on the grounds that he had something to deal with.
Looking at Li Xin's back, Xiong Kaiyuan was not angry, speculating in his heart that the stability of the resettlement station was probably a target phenomenon, and Li Xin seemed to have guessed some clues, and he also realized that it should be related to him. and that Gao Shiming, his attitude towards him is also a 180-degree turn, and there must be something strange in this. But he is not afraid, this kind of groundless speculation can only stay on speculation, don't even think about the evidence that wants to arrest him, the links that can leave evidence have long been dealt with by him.
When he was standing in the middle of nowhere, a little eunuch came to invite him.
"You're a payment expert, aren't you? Gao Gong please! ”
Xiong Kaiyuan was relieved, Gao Shiming still needed his own, if this big eunuch hadn't forced him too much, he wouldn't have made this decision.
In Gao Shiming's big tent, Li Xin sat in front of the desk, and Gao Shiming paced in the account.
"Gao Gong, don't dangle back and forth, Li Xin's eyes are glazed!"
Gao Shiming stopped, came to Li Xin's case, and said hatefully:
"This weasel gave the chicken a New Year's greeting, and he must not have a good heart, thinking that without evidence, our family would not believe that he could not be cured."
Li Xin was taken aback and immediately reminded him.
"Gao Gong is a little restless, don't be impatient, don't ......"
Gao Shiming interrupted Li Xin impatiently.
"Yes, yes! How can we do something that is not up to the standard? ”
Li Xin no longer spoke, he had accumulated a lot of official documents in the past day, and he had to hurry up to deal with it, especially the formation of a musket battalion, and the matter of requisitioning soldiers was handed over to Qian Tai, among which the left battalion of spears was collectively converted into musketeers, and at the same time recruited recruits as spearmen to supplement the spear battalion.
Gao Shiming muttered a few more words to himself, but when he saw that he couldn't get a response, he snorted and walked out.
At the same time, in a military tent not far from the resettlement station, Xiong Kaiyuan was eating the shredded mutton prepared by the little eunuch, and even the wine was warmed...... It's just that a few big men who go in and out of the tea and hand water are very disturbing to the scenery.
The military tent is extremely elegantly arranged, and if you don't go out, you will never think that there is a dirty and messy construction site outside. I couldn't help but sigh, the eunuchs around the emperor are just not ordinary, and I can't forget to enjoy them anywhere. A big man came in with a charcoal basket and pulled the charcoal brazier in the middle, and the tent immediately became warm.
Xiong Kaiyuan took a sip of warm wine comfortably, only to feel very comfortable. To be honest, since he took office as the prefect of Datong, he hasn't been so quiet for a while, and he was a little drunk for a while, if there were a few delicate little ladies around him.
Suddenly, there were a few bangs, and Xiong Kaiyuan's good mood was taken away by most of them, but it was the man who filled the carbon and fell at the door with a frame, and he was immediately displeased. What else can you do?
Someone outside had apparently heard the voice, and without asking for instructions, he came in to help the fallen man out, and then simply cleaned up the carbon basket on the ground.
Xiong Kaiyuan, who originally didn't plan to pursue it, was already extremely ugly, and he didn't believe that Gao Shiming would find a few people who were so blind-eyed to be servants. Impatiently, the few big men who came in one after another to clean up the house.
"Don't clean up, get out of here, don't stay in this ......"
Unexpectedly, one of the big men raised his head and coughed a few times.
"Master, these of us are people who have today and no tomorrow, you may be noble outside, but few of the people who enter here can get out alive! If you don't like it, you still have to eat and eat, how do you say it when you read it, and what is it called to have fun in time......"
After that, the big man shook his head and continued to pack up before preparing to go out unhurriedly. Xiong Kaiyuan was confused, what is outside and inside, few people can get out alive, is this poor man talking nonsense?
"Wait! What do you elaborate on, what is outside and inside? ”
The man was stunned for a moment, glanced at Xiong Kaiyuan with sympathy on his face, and then squatted on the ground and took a few breaths, and then shook his head, as if he was very tired.
"Alas! So you don't know it? So you're a poor man......"
Xiong Kaiyuan is already angry, what does Gao Shiming mean, did he find a poor man to toss him?
"Bold fanatics, Hugh is talking nonsense in front of this official!"
The man smiled, "It doesn't matter how big an official you are, it's not easy to get here." There is a total mile in front of the child, the same was sent in, it is not easy to get out, you look at the three-zhang high wooden fence wall outside, want to climb out of the sky. ”
Seeing that the man didn't seem to be entertaining himself, Xiong Kaiyuan began to be secretly frightened, what was going on? Looking at the man again, he seemed to be very sympathetic to himself, and he felt even more frightened, but because of his identity, it was not good to get up and go out to check the situation in a hurry.
"It seems that you really don't know at all, I'll tell you the truth, this is the plague isolation hospital, and the people who can come in are all suspected plague infections in the words of the government, and if you want to get out, you have to pass a few passes......" The man began to count the levels to Xiong Kaiyuan with his fingers, but Xiong Kaiyuan couldn't listen anymore, he couldn't care about his identity anymore, Huo got up, and the dishes and chopsticks on the table were taken to the ground and fell to the ground, and he rushed out with an arrow.
Xiong Kaiyuan noticed that he had entered a neat and tidy yard, but in fact, there was a dull and dead air everywhere. Why didn't he pay attention to it in the first place, he spit out a few mouthfuls in succession, trying to spit out all the bad luck in his body.
It was not advisable to stay here for a long time, but it was too late, and the guards guarding the gate were wrapped very tightly from head to toe, and stood on the tower three zhang high, and ordered him to stand back, otherwise he would shoot arrows.
Xiong Kaiyuan was extremely angry, "I am Xiong Kaiyuan, the prefect of Datong, see who dares to shoot me!" He regretted a little that he didn't wear an official uniform today, and he seemed to be a little lacking in aura at the moment. Sure enough, the soldier didn't urinate at all, "Go back, go back, the king of heaven will not be able to come here!" ”
Xiong Kaiyuan's footsteps did not stop, a feather arrow was nailed in front of him with a clatter, and the tail feathers were still trembling, and he realized that the other party was real.
"Go back, go back! If you want to come out, Lao Tzu will die! ”
"Don't shoot arrows, don't shoot arrows, I just don't move! You go and call Li Xin, no, call Gao Shiming! ”
The hero does not suffer immediate losses, although Xiong Kaiyuan is faintly aware of the severity of the matter, he still wants to call Gao and Li to confront them face to face.
"It's not difficult for Lao Tzu, just wait!"
The soldier threw down a sentence and stopped moving.
In desperation, Xiong Kaiyuan went back to the tent where he had eaten and drank, not wanting that the charcoal fire was dying, and on the day of early spring, the tent was cold and abnormal, and he wanted to call someone to fill the charcoal, but he shouted that his throat was broken and no one paid attention to him.
The wine was cold, the meat was cold, Xiong Kaiyuan sat down on the chair dejectedly, waiting for Gao Li's arrival.
Who knew that after waiting for three days without moving, the remaining wine and meat were gone, Xiong Kaiyuan began to be hungry, and the food supplied in the yard was like pig food, and he was disgusted and wanted to vomit after looking at it. What made Xiong Kaiyuan even more panicked was that there were all plague patients here, and they were locked up with these people all day long, so if they were infected, wouldn't they die unjustly!
Therefore, Xiong Kaiyuan, who was in a panic, did not allow anyone to contact him, and he didn't dare to eat a bite of food.
When he was bored, whenever Xiong Kaiyuan lay down in the crack of the door and looked out, he felt that Sensen's courtyard was like a hell on earth, and he felt that he had become a person who had been forgotten in hell, no, he was framed by Gao Shiming's dog eunuch......
Gao Shiming sneezed fiercely, he pinched his orchid fingers, took out a silk handkerchief from his cuffs, and wiped it on his face.
"Then the killing is to blame, General Li didn't come to intercede for him, right? Yes, don't talk about it, let's talk about something else! ”
Looking at Li Xin, who roared in, he still let you know, he still wanted to do something about it, and even wanted to kill the killer, it was not too much. The prefect's yamen sent people to urge him, and he sent him away on the grounds that the prefect was ill. Who knew that the prefect's yamen heard that Xiong Kaiyuan was in poor health, so he really stopped urging him.
Li Xin suddenly burst out laughing and gave a thumbs up.
"Li Xin heard about Gao Gong's methods, and Li Xin bowed to the wind!"
It turned out that after all, there was still a soldier who took care of the plague isolation hospital and brought Xiong Kaiyuan's words to Li Xin to see Li Xin, and Li Xin knew that Xiong Kaiyuan did not leave the resettlement station after escorting the supplies that day, but was imprisoned in the isolation hospital. The quarantine hospital was full of suspected plague infections, and for three days, even if Xiong Kaiyuan was healthy, it was difficult to guarantee that he would not be infected with plague. Gao Shiming is really ruthless. But under careful questioning, when he heard that Xiong Kaiyuan was locked up in an isolation hospital that had just been built and had not yet been put into use, he still had a little conscience in his heart.
"How long does Gao Gong plan to deceive that Lord Xiong?"
Gao Shiming rolled his eyelids.
"Who said our family lied to him? It's full of genuine plague infected! ”
