Chapter 517: The Inner Thief and the Outer Thief
"Hey! The mountain grass is green and the water is flowing for a long time, hey, the ground is yellow! The farmer is sweating in the field, hey, women weaving! The girl outside the door chased the duck over, and there were teenagers chasing after her, hey, one or two......"
The singing in the fields is full of strong local flavor, and the people use singing to release vitality and happiness, and also record their lives and interesting things happening around them.
On the main road, several horses walked forward with small steps, four men and one woman, all brightly dressed and with extraordinary temperament, it was Wang Xu and his party who went to Ningyuan County.
"Wanqing, when we first arrived in Lingling, where was there such a scene, now I see, the people are singing about farming, and the happiness is beyond words, it seems that our efforts are really worth it!"
Hearing this, Ling Wanqing suddenly rolled her eyes and quipped, "Lord, the slave family sees that you are not paying attention to the field, but to that song!" ”
Wang Xu was stunned: "Huh? How do you say that? ”
Ling Wanqing covered her mouth and chuckled: "Isn't there a girl chasing ducks past the door?" What the lord cares about, I'm afraid where is the girl, right? The girl in the mountains is beautiful and simple, and she is very appetizing, isn't it? ”
"Good! How dare you run me off like that. Wang Xu reacted quickly, patted the horse closer, and reached out to grab it.
Ling Wanqing sneered, her slender and round legs slammed into the horse's belly, and lightning rushed out, dodging the clutches that struck her delicate body.
Wang Xu fell short with one hand, and immediately laughed and chased wildly, and the two were already chasing and playing on the road in the blink of an eye.
When Dian Wei, Huang Xu, and Liao Hua saw this, they all smiled unnaturally and followed behind.
I watched it for a long time. Liao Hua was a little curious. I couldn't help but ask out loud: "General Dian." Are all these approachable people on the Lord's Fair Day? ”
"Ah, yes!" Dian Wei nodded, turned his head to look at Liao Hua, and said with a smile: "Except for discussing official affairs, or on formal occasions, the lord doesn't care much about etiquette, but he must distinguish clearly, if there are some cases where he violates the rules and misses the right thing." The wrath of the lord is terrible. ”
"The last general understands!" Liao Hua smiled clearly.
Huang Xu didn't know much about Wang Xu, listening to the conversation between the two, somehow, he suddenly lowered his voice and asked, "General Dian, is the lord very feminine?" ”
"Huh? Hahahaha......" Dian Wei was stunned for a moment, then laughed and asked, "Why do you say that?" ”
"Although this Ling Commander is a spy Commander, he is a woman after all, and the lord is ......" Huang Xu hesitated to say this, and stopped talking in embarrassment.
Dian Wei understood. smiled honestly: "I don't know this, if you say that the lord is a good woman." But the princess and concubine are not as many as me. If the lord is not lustful, it is not, for the sake of the cicada master mother, but he broke through the palace late at night, and when he was with Yan's eldest sister, it was really frolicking regardless of the eyes of others. ”
"Break into the palace!" Huang Xu and Liao Hua suddenly exclaimed.
"What's so strange about that, the current palace is still sleeping with someone else!" Dian Wei said with a grin.
"This is also true, the world is chaotic, and the prestige of the court has been greatly reduced!" Liao Hua interfaced.
Huang Xu was silent, and quickly changed the topic after a while: "General Dian, I heard that several big and small housewives are all beautiful and beautiful in the world, I don't know how beautiful they are?" Listen to the rumors among the people, the gods are like gods! ”
"That's not a biography, it's true!" Dian Wei immediately corrected it. "The housewives are among the most beautiful and strange women in the world today!"
"Oh! I've only seen the housewife, but the little one hasn't. Huang Xu was bored, and suddenly said to himself: "I think Wang Li, the sister of the lord, is the most beautiful, no one can compare, not even the master's mother!" ”
Dian Wei glanced at him rarely, and scolded with a rough voice: "You kid, that's your future wife, of course you think it's the most beautiful." ”
"How does General Dian know this?" Huang Xu was stunned.
"Why are you dumber than me? How big is it for the lord to marry his sister? How can Jingzhou's civil and military affairs not spread quickly, I have even prepared the red ceremony for a long time, just waiting to drink the wedding wine! But why don't you work harder, how long has this dragged on? ”
Hearing this, Huang Xu was suddenly a little depressed and sighed: "I want to too, but Wang Li said that he wanted to accompany his parents more." ”
"That's as it should be!" Dian Wei nodded, watching Wang Xu and Ling Wanqing run farther and farther in front of him, and couldn't help but say, "Don't say it, catch up, don't have anything wrong!" ”
"Hmm!"
Huang Xu and Liao Hua responded, and then sped up their horses......
Because he has not returned to Lingling for some years, although Wang Xu is busy on the road, he still looks at his hometown along the way, this is the place where he started the army in the real sense of the year, and his feelings are naturally strong, but in just a few years, it is not what it used to be, the road is accessible, and the changes are significant, which makes him feel a lot of emotion.
A few days later, the five of them quietly arrived in Ningyuan County, without notifying anyone, found a restaurant where they could stay, and rented a separate courtyard to live in.
Dian Wei and the others were puzzled, and couldn't help but ask: "Lord, why didn't you notify the military advisor?" ”
After Wang Xu washed his face unhurriedly, he said with a smile: "One, Guo Jia has been able to stabilize the battle situation and suppress the barbarian army, without my participation. Second, the most important thing in this barbarian matter is that I communicate with Shamoko, and the premise of the exchange is to find out the truth, if I appear, it will make those conspirators hide, and it will not be easy to find. ”
In fact, there is one more thing he didn't say, that is, give Liu Min more time!
This Liu Min has governed the barbarians for many years and has a lot of credit, such as today's chaos, when it is the time to employ people, Wang Xu does not want to kill him.
But if he shows up now, he can only kill his head immediately, after all, the mistake is too big, even if he wants to protect it, there is no excuse. Now that the whole Jingzhou is watching, if they don't execute harshly, then in the future, all the officials will feel that they have made such a big mistake and have not made a fuss, who is afraid of making mistakes, and when they really want to kill people, they will no longer be able to convince the public!
And he also believes that Guo Jia can understand his intentions, and will inevitably give Liu Min a chance, a chance to make up for it before he shows up to make up for it.
After settling down in the restaurant, Wang Xu was not in a hurry, but asked Ling Wanqing to contact the personnel of the spy shadow here as soon as possible to find out the situation first......
Liu Min didn't know about his arrival, and still tried his best to investigate in the house, striving for a glimmer of life.
He carefully looked at all the servants in the palace one by one. After confirming that there are no disguised people who have come in. He also called his family members one by one to check under various pretexts. That's when I gave up.
And the secret investigation of the old servant Fu Bo was also very fast, and he quietly counted the number of people in the mansion, until he confirmed that there was no more than one person and no less, and under the pretext of Liu Min's loss of ancestral treasures, he mobilized the servants of the whole mansion to turn the mansion upside down, but there were still no superfluous people coming out, and finally had to believe that there were indeed no outsiders sneaking in.
The two work with each other. It took a day, and it was finally confirmed that it was Fuchu's own people.
Late at night, Liu Min called Fu Bo into the study, and the two sat opposite each other on both sides of the table, but did not say anything, but put a silk silk on the table, each holding a pen, obviously communicating by handwriting, to avoid overheard.
The flickering candlelight shone on the silent cheeks of the two, looking a little oppressive.
Liu Min took the lead in writing: "Eliminate foreign thieves." It must be a thief, when the old barbarian king came here to talk to me that day. Who has approached the courtyard where the study is located? ”
Fauber is also very concise and writes a good hand quickly. "Seven! I, the tea maid left the fragrance, the sweeping maid cuizhu, the pruning flowers and plants Liu An, the master's wife He, the concubine Zhang, the master's wife and brother, the head of the guard He Hao! ”
Seeing these names, Liu Min didn't move for a long time, looked at the silk silk quietly, and sighed for a long time before he picked up the pen: "Who do you think is the most suspicious?" ”
Fu Bo looked at Liu Min's face, and finally resolutely wrote two words: "He Hao!" ”
Although Liu Min also had some guesses, his hands trembled a little when these two words came out, this person was not only his cronies, but also his brother-in-law, and they had known each other for many years. I couldn't write down even when I lifted the pen several times, and it took a long time to adjust and gently write down the two words that were scribbled. "Why?"
"I once saw He Hao walk into the courtyard where the study is located, and then walked out in a panic."
Liu Min didn't express an opinion, but just wrote: "The rest are sorted!" ”
"The second concubine, the third Liuxiang, the fourth Cuizhu, the fifth Liu An, the sixth wife, I will count it separately!"
With writing this, Liu Min already had a bottom in his heart, and finally spoke: "Fu Bo, then trouble you, go back and rest first!" ”
"No!" Fu Bo replied respectfully, and then said with concern: "Master, don't think too much, let's talk about tomorrow's things tomorrow!" ”
"I know!" Liu Min nodded.
At this moment, in the silent courtyard, there was a sudden sound of stones hitting the wall.
"Who!" Fu Bo shouted angrily, although he was not young, he was extremely fast, and he had already rushed out of the study with one step, Liu Min pulled out the sword on the wall, and rushed out.
But when Fauber came out, it was too late, and there was not even a figure.
After a closer look, it was found that the man had left the vicinity of the study before the two had finished talking, and only happened to kick a stone at the edge of the courtyard.
After searching around the neighborhood to no avail, Fu Bo returned to the door of the study, looked at Liu Min with an anxious face, and his face was ashamed: "Master, I'm sorry!" ”
"It's okay!" Waving his sleeves, Liu Min didn't mean to blame, but said anxiously: "Fu Bo, with your martial arts, this person is close at hand but you haven't found it, it seems that this person is very extraordinary, there is no such powerful person in the house!" But it is incredible that outsiders can lurk in my house without the guards to find out! ”
Fu Bo's face was a little ugly, and he chattered to himself: "This person's martial arts are extraordinary, he is the first in the world, and he can be called rare, but I don't understand how he avoided the discovery of the soldiers?" Outside, there are layers of soldiers! ”
"Hey!" Liu Min's brows furrowed even tighter. "You say that such a person can overhear during the day?"
Of course, Fauber understood that he was referring to the events of that day, and immediately shook his head: "Master rest assured, it is impossible for him to avoid the guards in broad daylight, and it is impossible for him to sneak in, that is not something that mortals can do." To be able to lurk there today, I'm afraid it also used special means. ”
"That's good!" Liu Min nodded reassuringly, then waved his hand and said, "Then it doesn't matter to him, or find out the heirloom!" ”
Fu Bo knew what he meant, and immediately nodded: "Then the master and rest in peace early, the old slave will retire!" ”
"Go ahead!"
Watching Fu Bo's back go away, Liu Min fell into deep thought...... (To be continued......)
