Chapter 205: Ministry of Internal Affairs
"Oh, don't you recognize it?" Seeing that the three of them ignored themselves, Lin Hua'an laughed, pointed to the feet of their boots and said to Yu Sixi: "Old Yu, you see, these three people are wearing ordinary pastoral clothes, and their clothes are stained with wool and mud, but the pair of martial arts boots on their feet are clean and tidy, and ordinary herdsmen can wear a pair of pastoral boots for five or seven years, because the pastoral boots are coarse, hard, wear-resistant, and cheap, but the martial boots are extremely expensive, not only are ordinary people not easy to wear, but even those who know a little about martial arts do not have to spend a lot of money to buy." However, this group of people is dressed in tattered pastoral clothes, but they are equipped with martial boots, so disguised, maybe they are people from Western Liao and Gumeng, who infiltrated our Dajin Xing to assassinate them. ”
The middle-aged man in the stall was stunned for a moment when he heard this, thinking that this noble young master knew that the three of them were enemy countrymen in disguise, why didn't he go to report to the official but said it loudly in front of them?
The middle-aged man still couldn't figure it out, and the three people who were drinking suddenly put down the wine bowls, turned around neatly and knelt down and shouted: "The slaves are not enemies of the country." ”
"Finally admit that it's not an ordinary person? Very good! Lin Hua'an said with a smile, looked down at the three people kneeling on the ground, and asked: "You are waiting for me here in such disguise, just to assassinate me, and now you keep saying that you are not an assassin of an enemy country, how can you believe it for no reason, tell me who you are, who you are instructed by, and what are your plans, okay?" ”
Those three people were sent to follow the horses, and they didn't even know what to track for them, so where would they know what the plan was? When he wanted to report the number of the house, and as soon as he wanted to report the number of the house, the horse knew who had sent him to follow him, and he was suddenly miserable, and he didn't know how to answer.
Seeing that the three of them were squeaking and looking sad, Lin Hua'an smiled widely, stretched his fingers down, turned to Yu Sixian and said: "Old Yu, they keep saying that they are not enemy assassins, but they can't say who they are, it seems that you have to go to the Xiwang Mansion to borrow a guard to capture it first, and then send it to the Criminal Department for a cruel punishment before you speak." ”
Yu Sitear looked at the three big men who were about to cry, the old face wanted to laugh or not, and shouted loudly: "Yes, the old slave will go to borrow the palace ...... immediately."
"The horse master spares his life, the horse master spares his life!" Before he finished drinking, the three of them kowtowed to each other and choked, and one of them raised his sad face and said bitterly: "Slaves...... The minions are the guards of the Taishifu and are the ...... On the orders of the master, he came to secretly protect the master of the horse. ”
"Oh?" Hearing the protection, Lin Hua'an was surprised, and said at the corner of the street behind his finger: "In the evening, when I came out of the mansion, I found several people following, and when I came out of the Xiwang Mansion just now, I found two people following at the entrance of the street. ”
The big man didn't know that the horse master was so wordy, and he didn't let go after reporting the house number, and shook his head sadly and said: "The master only let the three servants come, as for the secret entourage and the two people at the corner when the horse left the house, the slaves don't know, presumably ...... Presumably, other masters were worried about the safety of the horse master, and they also sent people to protect them secretly. ”
"I see." Lin Huaan nodded, didn't ask any more questions, took Jing'er, turned around and walked towards Shen Xu in the direction of his home.
Yu Sixian squinted at the three people who knelt on the ground and didn't dare to get up, followed quickly, and then turned another street, glanced left and right, and then asked in confusion: "Young master, since you don't take them, why did you suddenly poke them?" Also, when we go out in the evening, is someone following us? Probably not. ”
Lin Huaan glanced back at him and said with a smile: "Old Yu is very confident in his sharp eyes." ”
Yu Sitear replied as a matter of course: "Although our four surnames have been vacant for more than 200 years, the training has been passed down from generation to generation without interruption, and when entering the inn, you must first observe all the doors and windows, and when you enter the courtyard, you must keep all the paths in mind, listen to the footsteps, look for strange people, and listen to all directions. The old slave could almost conclude that when he went out in the evening, no one secretly followed him, and asked the young master to make it clear. ”
"Awesome!" Lin Huaan cocked a female finger at him, shook his head lightly and said: "I don't know if anyone is following me in the evening, but the sentence 'as soon as I leave the house, someone will follow' must be said to those three people, that's it." ”
Yu Si was stunned for a moment, his side brain couldn't figure it out, and he asked suspiciously: "Young master, is there anything to learn about this sentence?" ”
"Absolutely." Lin Huaan asked with a smile: "Old Yu, think about it, those three people just said that they were from the Taishi Mansion, and they said that they didn't know who the other two people were following on the street, so what is the relationship between those two and Lu Taishi?" ”
"Of course it's a gang."
"Okay, so who's the leader of this gang?"
"Naturally, it's the right prime minister."
"Then what I said to those three people, will they report it to Master Lu? Will the stabs know the way? ”
"Of course!"
Yu Si replied with tears, looked at his face with a deep smile, was suddenly stunned, and suddenly realized: "Young Master, you didn't need to bring Jing'er when you visited Akdasu, but you just brought it, since you are bringing a female dependent, it is just an ordinary visit, this is one of them." The second is that you told the three people that as soon as you went out, you knew that someone was following you, and you were laying a trap for the stab, letting him know that you dared to go to the Xiwang Mansion even though you knew that someone was following you, and the stub would naturally think that you were just visiting, with no purpose, and had nothing to do with him. ”
Lin Huaan smiled slightly, did not respond, took Jing'er's palm, and walked towards the house calmly.
Returning to the mansion, the lanterns flickered dimly, stepped into the stone road in the front yard, walked into the lobby, let go of Jing'er's little hand and ordered: "You are also tired, don't wait for me, go to bed first." ”
Jing'er's cheeks were soft and charming reflected by the blurred candle flame in the hall, looking up at the young master's smiling face, the egg face cherry blossoms were pink, nodded lightly, lowered his face, and hurriedly escaped to the side door.
Lin Hua An'er, seeing the little baby who was becoming more and more shy leave, turned around and sat in the chair, and instructed Yu Sixi: "You go and call Long Xinghe, and go to rest." ”
Seeing that he looked tired, Yu Sixian nodded, turned around and left the hall.
Lin Huaan was indeed a little tired, he gently leaned his back on the back of the chair, and looked at the two girls standing beside the pillar.
He looked and thought, his thoughts scattered, the earth was silent, and before he knew it, he fell asleep.
I don't know how long he slept, suddenly his legs and feet shook, he woke up from his slumber, his eyelids were lifted and he Longxing was standing in front of him, and he immediately smiled and asked, "You are here?" Why don't you wake me up? ”
Together with Long Xing, he has been here for a while, and when he saw that he was breathing heavily, he knew that this sleep was heavy, and he thought about it, the young master was a person with a heavy sense of responsibility, and with such a heavy burden on his shoulders, he must be exhausted.
Long Xing's face was distressed, and she said softly: "Although the slave maid did not come to Dadu with you at the same time, the young master who the slave maid knew in her heart must have worried about this and that all the way, and did not have a good normal rest." As she spoke, she sighed lightly and persuaded softly: "There are many things in the world like the stars in the sky, and it is not bad for those hours, why don't you rest first tonight, and then do it tomorrow?" ”
Looking at this gentle mother-in-law, where would Lin Huaan not know that she was distressing herself? Just sighed lightly, and said melancholy: "The autumn tiger in the north is coming rapidly, and the frost will fall in more than 20 days, I can sleep here peacefully for a few more hours, but the thousands of people who are suffering from hunger may not be able to survive the hunger and cold for half an hour." ”
Hearing this melancholy, Long Xing's eyes turned red, and he almost burst into tears, choked up, and stopped talking.
Seeing her like this, Lin Huaan reached out and patted his mother-in-law's soft shoulder, turned to him and asked, "What time is it?" ”
He replied, "It's almost over." ”
Before I knew it, it was almost eleven o'clock, and Lin Huaan immediately ordered: "You go and call a few teenagers to move the bribes and gift slips in the treasury to the side door, and I will take you to the Internal Affairs Office. ”
With a nod, he strode through the door.
Lin Huaan smiled at Long Xing, who was also smiling, and said sinisterly: "Let's wait at the side door." ”
Long Xing smiled, why didn't she think that this kind of method of receiving gifts without committing crimes could also be kind to the people? Then he came to the door of the house.
The side door is specially set up for horses, sedan chairs, carriages in and out, the big door frame is a dirt field, there is a grass shed where three horses live on the side, there is also a mud room next to the shed, the mud room has no door frame, and it is stacked with straw, horse beans, vehicles, and sedan chairs.
As soon as Lin Huaan arrived at the side gate, he saw several figures rising in the night sky, a total of seven people, together with the leader, followed by six people, each of whom was holding or carrying a heavy gift box, and jumped towards his son in the air.
Seeing these Hengshanzhai Junjie, he let out a pleasant sound in his throat, and when he jumped down, he pointed his hand and smiled: "Together, this martial art should be exposed at a critical moment, and don't show the details at ordinary times, others won't know that our house is Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, so naturally there will be no vigilance." ”
"Yes!" He was afraid that he would wait for a long time before leading the children to copy the path, answered, and walked into the muddy room with six children, lifted out the vehicle, the fence, and the rope, and then pulled out a handsome horse from the horse fence and bolted it on the spot.
Soon, the carriage was placed, Lin Huaan walked onto the board, stretched his arm down and gently picked up Long Xing, and said to the person in charge of the car: "The Internal Affairs Office is sitting at Houshoumen, let's go." ”
Together with the nod, when the children opened the side door, and saw the fire rushing, they knew that the guards were stationed to investigate, and immediately shouted: "It's me, don't panic." ”
Seeing that it was the head of the company, several guards who rushed over hurriedly answered yes, and retreated left and right with torches. Together with the drive out of the side gate, it was an alley, and the street was empty at night, so I drove to Houshoumen quickly.
