Soon, the soldiers in front of the mansion also noticed Wang Xu's arrival, and immediately knelt down and saluted. "Meet General Wang!"

"Hmmm! Please. Wang Xugao sat on the back of the horse and waved his hand gently, but his eyes were fixed on the man.

And when the man heard the voice, he also turned his head, his eyes met, he looked at it from afar, and the memories of the past slowly flashed in his mind, and after a while, Wang Xu was already surprised and exclaimed: "Liu Zhonglang!" Immediately, he couldn't stop the joy in his heart, turned over and dismounted, and walked quickly to meet him.

The person who came was the former general who helped Wang Xu escape from Luoyang Imperial Prison back then, and later took care of him repeatedly on the way to escape.

I haven't seen it for some years, but Liu Yi has not changed much, except for a few more strands of gray hair on his temples, his body is still so upright, and his eyes are radiant. At this moment, he also recognized Wang Xu, and immediately smiled heartily: "Hahaha!" I have been an official for many years, and I really don't dare to be a Zhonglang! However, General Wang is not what he used to be, and his demeanor is shining! ”

Wang Xu excitedly grabbed Liu Yi's hand and looked at it carefully for a long time before sighing: "Hey! Unexpectedly, since the farewell of Youzhou back then, they have never had the opportunity to see each other again. The last time I was ordered to return to Beijing, I heard that Your Excellency had resigned from the government and was missing. ”

"Hey!" Hearing this, Liu Yi often sighed, and said helplessly: "When the eunuch was in power, he was also walking on thin ice below, and when he went north to Youzhou to inform the general to rush back to Jingnan, the first emperor just wanted to go out of the palace to search, but he couldn't find the person who was escorting, and he disappeared for no reason, so he was furious. In addition, the eunuch has long been dissatisfied with the middle general of the five facial features, in order to protect himself, in desperation, he can only quickly find a reason to resign and save his life. Later, he has been hiding in his hometown in Yanzhou, guarding a few acres of fertile land, and farming for a living. ”

Hearing this, Wang Xu felt even more uncomfortable. People have lost their positions and fled because of themselves. Although it is easy to say, the environment at that time, you don't need to think about it, you know, and it must have been very hard. Immediately, he said with some self-reproach: "I didn't expect that I had harmed Your Excellency in such a situation, why didn't Your Excellency come to me at that time?" At that time, I had been reinstated and concurrently served as the Lingling Taishou, and when Your Excellency came to me, you could also give me a chance to repay my kindness! ”

"Huh! What did the general say? Liu Yi, who was originally smiling, heard Wang Xu's words. suddenly straightened his face, and said with some annoyance: "What I did back then, I just saw that the general was not an ordinary person and would have great ambitions, so I helped the general get through the difficulties, just for Daoyier." Is it for the sake of reward? ”

Feeling Liu Yi's high demeanor, Wang Xu also secretly admired it, and quickly apologized: "Liu Zhonglang is angry, he is losing his words." ”

Hearing this, Liu Yi's face softened, and he also knew that Wang Xu didn't mean to humiliate him, so he smiled, and then changed the topic and said, "Actually." The general does not need to take this matter to heart. It was not a bad thing to be forced to resign at that time. Later, there was chaos in Beijing, if I hadn't left earlier. Maybe you will be involved in right and wrong and suffer unjustified disasters. Although the life in the countryside is hard, it is happy, which is a curse and a blessing! ”

"Huh!" Seeing that Liu Yi was so open-minded, Wang Xu also smiled slightly, and turned the conversation around: "Then when did Liu Zhonglang come to Changsha, why didn't he say that he was looking for me to catch up with the past?" ”

Liu Yi said with a smile: "Dong Zhuo is in chaos, the Central Plains is in chaos, all parties are tense, Yanzhou is a land of right and wrong, and it will definitely fall into war." I heard that the passing merchant said that Jingnan was stable and prosperous, and for the safety of his family, he sold his ancestral property and moved to Linxiang, Changsha, for almost a month. Originally, I wanted to talk to the general, but now that the general is in charge of the military affairs of several counties, he is busy with official business, so he didn't bother. ”

"Oh?" Hearing that Liu Yi had moved his family here, Wang Xu suddenly frowned and asked, "Then I don't know what Liu Zhonglang does for a living now?" ”

Liu Yi smiled and said, "This is thanks to the general's benevolent government!" After I became a naturalized citizen, I was allocated a few acres of abandoned public land according to the number of people in my family, and it happened to be in Donghuan Village, ten miles east of the city. On weekdays, after finishing farm work, I also took my children and grandchildren into the mountains to hunt, and today I went to the city to exchange some money for grain, furs, etc., and by the way, I also bought a few pieces of good cloth for my grandchildren and my daughters in the family to make clothes. ”

As he spoke, he suddenly looked at the gate of the Taishou Mansion, and said: "But just now in the market, I suddenly heard others talking about it, saying that something happened to the Taishou Mansion in Changsha, and it seemed to be some kind of case." Not only did they send officers and soldiers to blockade for three days, but they also questioned all the people around them, but there was no movement. I was thinking that the case of the Taishou Mansion would be blocked, it would not be small, and it had not been solved for a long time, so I came over to see if I could help. Although my old bones are not of much use, when it comes to this matter, it is still somewhat useful to ask yourself. ”

After listening to Liu Yi's words, Wang Xu's heart really trembled, people would rather be coarse and linen than ask for the grace of the past, this kind of virtue is really rare in the world.

But before he could speak, the Huan Jie who listened to the cause and effect next to him had already had a hidden understanding, and admired Liu Yi's high style and brightness, and blurted out praise: "Liu Gong, he is really a righteous man in the world!" ”

"Huh?" Liu Yi was stunned by these words, and then looked at Huan Jie hesitantly. "This is ......"

"Oh!" Wang Xu only reacted at this time, and introduced with a smile: "This is Huan Jie, Huan Boxu, the current Changsha Taishou." ”

After speaking, he solemnly said to Huan Jie: "Bo Xu, this is the former Wuguan Zhonglang General, Liu Yi, the word Wu Zhuo." Not only is it highly respected, but it is also kind to me! ”

Huanjie didn't dare to slack off, and immediately smiled and arched his hand: "Late Huanjie, I've seen Liu Gong!" Liu Gong's virtue is really a model for my generation, and he will be obedient in his later life! ”

Liu Yi hurriedly waved his hand and said with a smile: "Eh! Don't dare to be, don't dare to be! It's just a mountain village man, how can he be so praised. However, I have long heard that Huan is too strict in governance, honest and upright, and has the talent to govern the country and the country, which makes me admire it a lot! ”

Seeing that the two of them were so polite, Wang Xu's head suddenly became big, and he quickly interjected: "Liu Zhonglang, don't be modest anymore, when Your Excellency lived in the temple, we were still studying at home, and it was natural to be praised for this." ”

As he spoke, his voice changed, and he continued: "Liu Zhonglang, if you happen to be here, it will be even better." With your means, there must be no reason for the thief to escape. I think back then, I was thousands of miles away, and I was easily intercepted by Liu Zhonglang! ”

"Huh!" Liu Yi was very proud of his ability, but he didn't say much on this topic, and smiled slightly. Instead, he asked, "I wonder what happened?" Listen to the rumors. It's scattered, and I can't listen to it exactly, but I just know that it seems that there are thieves who are killing people and taking things in Taishou Mansion? ”

Hearing this, Wang Xu, Huan Jie, and Ling Wanqing glanced at each other, did not hide it, and said solemnly: "Liu Zhonglang, the gate of this mansion is not a place to talk. Why don't you go into the house and talk about it! ”

"Hmm!" Seeing this, Liu Yi also nodded clearly.

As Wang Xu took Liu Yi into the mansion, he looked at the Taishou Mansion, which was already under martial law, and saw that there was no one walking around, so he explained as he walked: "Liu Zhonglang, don't hide it." This time, there was indeed a big case in Changsha Taishou Mansion, and I lost important confidential documents in Jingnan. These documents involve Jingnan's military and political secrets, and once they are out, it will be extremely unfavorable to Jingnan. ”

Liu Yi is also a veteran of officialdom, and he has been around the emperor and has encountered many similar situations, so of course he understands how important the so-called confidential military and political documents are. After calculating in his heart, he already asked rhetorically: "I watched the Taishou Mansion make such a blockade move. Presumably, this thief is still hidden in the mansion. But I don't know who it is? Right? ”

Hearing this, Huan Jie immediately continued: "Liu Gong is really a master. Yes, this thief should be in the house, not only do I not know who it is, but even the modus operandi is not known at present. ”

"Oh? I wonder if you can tell me about it? This may be helpful. Liu Yi said.

Huan Jie glanced at Wang Xu, saw that he nodded in agreement, and did not hesitate, and quickly told the cause and effect of the matter, and even the ideas that Guo Jia, Tian Feng, and Fu Zhu had argued about before also explained in detail.

Liu Yi walked very slowly and listened intently, but when he listened to everything, his footsteps suddenly paused and stopped.

Wang Xuzheng was a little surprised, and when he wanted to ask, his face was already grim, and he said solemnly: "General Wang, if you want to catch the thief in the fastest time, the general had better not enter the mansion again, and it is better to go out quickly while few people have seen the general coming!" ”

Hearing this, Wang Xu was stunned for a moment, a little hesitant, but in the end he still chose to believe Liu Yi, and with Ling Wanqing and Huan Jie, who were also puzzled, turned around and walked out. But in order to find a place to talk, he came to the gatehouse on duty at the gate of the mansion, and ordered the guards who were resting here to go out first, and then he beckoned and sat down.

Liu Yi also knew that Wang Xu was puzzled, looked outside the door, and made sure that no one was around, so he closed the door and said with a calm smile: "General, in fact, the modus operandi of this case has been analyzed by Huan Taishou and Yuan Hao. ”

Because Tian Feng had a very close relationship with Liu Yi when he was serving in Luoyang, he affectionately called him the cousin.

Following his words, Wang Xu and Huan Jie were confused and didn't know what to do. However, Ling Wanqing's eyes suddenly lit up, and her eyes were full of surprise. At first, I thought that Liu Yi was just a good character, but I didn't expect that he was really a master, and he had already discovered the mystery just after listening to it.

Liu Yi has been in contact with heroes for many years, and he has been crawling in the court, and in the past few decades, his observation power is so high. Immediately noticed the abnormality in Ling Wanqing's expression, and couldn't help but wonder: "Who is this woman?" ”

"Huh? Oh, he's one of my subordinates in charge of intelligence, named Ling Wanqing. Wang Xu said with a smile.

As he spoke, he turned his head away, looked at Ling Wanqing and said with a smile: "Wanqing, Liu Zhonglang has mastered an intelligence system for the first emperor, I think I was thousands of miles away back then, and I couldn't hide in front of him when I changed my name and surname, you have time in the future, but you have to ask him for more advice." ”

Hearing this, of course Ling Wanqing didn't dare to slack off, she rarely showed a very ladylike smile, and got up to salute. "Wanqing paid a visit to Liu Zhonglang, and I hope that Liu Zhonglang will give more guidance to the little woman in the future."

"Huh! No need to be so gifted. Liu Yi smiled and waved his hand, looked at Ling Wanqing carefully for a moment, and then replied with deep meaning: "Your Excellency has never spoken, and his face is quite charming, but in fact, he is calm and abnormal, his eyes are in all directions, his ears are listening to six roads, and he is on high alert when walking, which is really a rare talent." It's not easy to be able to do this kind of Cheng dù at a young age! Looking at your look just now, I must have seen through this case! ”

Hearing these words, Ling Wanqing was even more rarely a little out of place, with a hint of surprise on her face, and said respectfully: "Liu Zhonglang is really a master, and I hope to give me some advice!" ”

"I don't dare to give advice, but there are a few opinions." Glancing at Ling Wanqing with a smile, Liu Yi slowly continued: "Actually, the path you are taking is similar to a soft and thorny path, which is very good for your own advantages. But you also have to remember that you have to be free, and it's not right for you to be on guard for a long time, as that will cause physical and mental tension. Let your vigilance become a habit, a natural one, rather than a deliberate exercise. ”

"Also, as an intelligence officer, don't use the pace of martial arts when walking, if the other party has enough experience, it is easy to see where your martial arts come from, such as you, you should have some relationship with the old woman of the ghost. And, most importantly......"

Speaking of this, Liu Yi paused abruptly, as if he was worried about something, and did not continue. smiled, turned his head instead, and arched his hand: "General Wang, in fact, although this case is strange, it is ......."

But Ling Wanqing had already heard that she was in a trance, and finally had a master to advise, where would she give up lightly, and immediately hurriedly asked: "Senior Liu, I don't know what the most important point is?" I hope the seniors will inform! ”

"This ......" was interrupted so suddenly, Liu Yi seemed a little hesitant. Glancing at Wang Xu, seeing that he was also extremely curious, he didn't blame Ling Wanqing for interjecting at all, so he asked, "Do you really want to know?" ”

"Hmm!" Ling Wanqing nodded.

Liu Yi was silent for a long time, and finally slowly raised his head. smiled slightly: "The path you are taking is to numb others with charm and beauty, but why are you still a virgin?" Isn't this a discrepancy between what is on the outside and what is on the outside, and it reveals its own flaws?
