Killing Spree 2
Section XXVIII
was grieving, and suddenly felt that someone next to him had stabbed him, Wu Ming turned his head, and saw that his wife's eyes were also red and swollen, but her expression was very anxious, and she said softly: "Ah Ming, now is not the time to be sad, you immediately block the news, keep it secret, and don't let the news of Governor He's death be known to Yu Chen."
Wu Ming reacted instantly, the truth is that the husband and wife have already made a heart-to-heart just now, and the reason will not be stated. Wu Mingqiang calmed himself down, did what Zhu Yuqing said, and blocked the news.
Those who can be in the main tent are He Xiaotian's henchmen, and their family is in the northwest, and there is no problem with loyalty. The relationship between Wu Ming and He Xiaotian is well known to everyone, and when the old governor was dying, he personally authorized him, so everyone did not resist his order.
After taking care of everything, it was the second half of the night, and the moon was in the middle. The husband and wife came out of the main tent. Seeing that her husband was still full of melancholy, Zhu Yuqing couldn't help but persuade: "The cycle of life and death is just the destiny of heaven, and it is only a matter of fate for my uncle-in-law to fall on the battlefield." A thousand years later, the history books will definitely praise him and draw a strong end to his life. Compared with my father, my uncle is so lucky, don't be too sad. ”
Wu Ming shook his head: "Xiaoqing, you misunderstood. I'm thinking about the way out of the whole army, according to what you just said, the first chance of the whole army lies in assassinating Chu Tianxing, but this is the capital of Yuchen Country, which is heavily guarded, and it is almost impossible to rush over like a fly. ”
Zhu Yuqing said: "I thought of this, after all, Yu Chen is a branch of the He family, and there are people who are nostalgic for the ancestors of the He family in the northwest, we can contact these people and provide convenience for them, so that the implementation of the plan will be much easier." ”
It seems that Xiao Qing was prepared early in the morning, and even thought about it. Wu Mingxi said: "Very much, I don't know if Xiaoqing has a candidate." ”
"Naturally," Zhu Yuqing thought for a while: "The leader of this gang is He Fei, the person in charge of the Ministry of Rites." ”
Wu Ming was a little surprised: "He Fei? Is that the same He Fei who raised the bar with He Ma yesterday? ”
"Yes," Zhu Yuqing wanted to laugh a little, but when he thought that Governor He had just passed away, that smile only turned into a sigh: "Speaking of this He Fei, you still have a relationship with Ah Ming, when he went west, he sent flammable materials such as stone grease to the grain camp in Dongmeng." ”
Sure enough, it was him, Wu Ming said: "I was looking for a chance to meet him, so it's just right." Xiaoqing, if it is late, things will change, contact him as soon as possible. ”
The husband and wife said a few words and finalized the matter. Although the matter of Governor He was not mourned, Wu Ming always had to guard his spirit, and Zhu Yuqing went to contact He Fei.
When we returned to the main camp, it was already set up. He Xiaotian was seriously injured, and he also knew his fate soon, so his subordinates were very well prepared for what happened after his death. Soon after the old governor died, he was bathed and disinfected with tulip wine. Then put spices such as peppercorns around the body. Looking at it now, the old governor looked serene, and there was nothing unusual except for a strong fragrance in the tent. However, Wu Ming also knew that although such measures were taken, people died in the ground, the climate in the west was hot, and the alien body would eventually change after a long time, which was not a long-term solution.
Looking at He Xiaotian's remains, he stepped forward, found a chair next to him and sat down, looking at the ground under him.
Since it is not a secret mourning, the relevant funeral rites are naturally exempted, but under the old governor's bed, a long-life lamp is still lit. It was a gust of night wind blowing, and the lamp was also swaying, Wu Ming was afraid that it would go out, so he squatted down, carefully pulled the wick higher, the flame jumped, and the tent suddenly became brighter.
"Father, you go all the way." He thought silently.
Before Governor He left, he also pointed out that as long as he mastered Yundu, he would master the world. Although it is not as alarmist as Kushui said, Yundu has a shocking secret, which is almost certain. So, what is hidden in this small place, so that the Persian people lose their wealth and the whole country crusades eastward.
It seems that only by mastering it in person can we study it well.
Keyundu is a sacred place of the Divine Cult, although it is nominally under the rule of Zhongxi, but it has long been actually occupied by the Divine Cult. If you want to find out the secrets, you have to clash with these people. In this way, how to explain to Xiao Ai, the dead wood is even more difficult to face.
Thinking of this, Wu Ming sat back on the chair and sighed again.
Now after all, it is wartime, and the generals of the camel battalion have a large group of soldiers to take care of, so they may have been guarding here, except for a few personal guards, Wu Ming bombed the three battalion commanders back, so as not to be seen by Yu Chen.
Sitting in a chair, my mind is full of messes. For a while, it was Yundu, and suddenly he was worried about the battle situation, and he was a little uneasy. I heard Zhu Yuqing shouting outside: "Ah Ming, He Libu is here." ”
He Fei came, Wu Ming was excited, and hurriedly got up from the chair. As soon as he walked to the door, his wife came in from the outside and said softly: "He Fei is outside, I will guard it for my uncle, you go to him to discuss." ”
Looking at his wife's slightly haggard face, Wu Ming felt great pity, and couldn't help pinching her little hand and said, "You haven't had a good rest in the past few days, so let others guard here, you go to sleep." ”
Zhu Yuqing shook his head: "I can still sleep there, because of your relationship, my uncle-in-law and I are even closer, and now that he is gone, I, as a junior, have to guard the spirit for him, which is also a matter of duty." ”
Seeing that Wu Ming's words stopped, she comforted in turn: "Don't worry, it's not a few years ago, and my body can still endure this bit of hard work." It's He Fei's place, you have to talk to him well, only by enlisting his help, can you get close to Chu Tianxing's residence and achieve your goal. ”
Wu Ming was very pity, and he was going to talk about it later, but he just sighed at the end: "I can save it, but don't worry, for so many years, my husband has also died nine times, and I have survived any wind." Rest assured, you will be able to turn the corner from danger. ”
The husband and wife explained two sentences, and Wu Ming got out of the camp. It was dawn and the sun was just popping up on the horizon. The sun is like a sharp sword, splitting the silent night and ushering in the blue sky.
Outside the camp gate, He Fei was waiting outside with two entourages. Probably a little bored, He Fei was holding a dry tobacco bag in his mouth, smoking, and looking over here from time to time. Wu Ming quickened his pace to greet him, and said with a forced smile: "He Libu, I'm really sorry to keep you waiting." ”
Looking at Wu Ming's slightly reluctant smile, He Fei couldn't help tiptoeing and looking in, but the tent was covered by a curtain, and it was far away from here, so he could see the clue there. He couldn't help but say, "Grandpa, is Governor He okay?" Are you feeling better? ”
Wu Ming smiled and looked calm: "Governor He, a master of the ninth rank, has a very tough body, and yesterday I sorted out his injuries for his true qi." Now it is basically stable, and it is estimated that in less than two days, I will be able to get out of bed and walk. ”
"Really?" He Fei extinguished his cigarette and seemed to hesitate: "I don't know if Grandpa can let He Mou in to have a look......"
Wu Ming Zhengse said: "He Libu, yesterday I spent most of the night healing, the old governor was sick and weak for a long time, and he just slept at this time, how can I bother again, if you really have the heart, can you do it another day?" ”
The success or failure of life and death is in the past two days, and when the time comes, the news of He Xiaotian's death cannot be hidden, so Wu Ming lied without the slightest psychological burden.
"Yes," He Fei's face was a little strange, and he didn't ask any questions, but said: "Our Lady came to me early in the morning, and my grandfather has something important to discuss, I don't know what it is?" ”
Wu Ming didn't make a sound, just glanced at the two entourage, He Feidun knew what he meant, and immediately said: "I have something to discuss with Dingguo Gong, you go down and wait." ”
After the two entourages had gone far, Wu Ming hugged his fist at He Fei: "I only learned from Cheap Nei today that it was He Libu who was willing to take risks and transport flammable materials into the Dongmeng grain camp that day, and then there was a big victory." Thank you. ”
He Fei put the cigarette stick into his arms: "Thanks to the mastery of my grandfather's planning, I don't dare to take this thank you word for it." He waved his hand and said: "Although Yu Chen's name is a country, to put it mildly, the population is too insufficient compared to some counties in the Han Dynasty, so the grandfather will not call him by the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Rites, just call him by his name." ”
He smiled bitterly, and said a little indifferently: "Have you ever seen me such an unparticular secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and I also work part-time as a city defense?" Lord He is really, we are originally a branch of the He family in the northwest, and the founding of the country is just to unite the people, but he is good, this is how many people are there, and what are the six parts of the partial life. ”
Generally speaking, the Ministry of Rites is a civil servant, and it is generally held by a civil official. But Yu Chen is only about 100,000 people, although it is a big country in the west, but for the Eastern Han Dynasty, which has a population of hundreds of millions, it is really a drop in the ocean. With such a small population, it is impossible to feed many officials. But He Dubo is extremely ambitious, and there are many in the Eastern Han Dynasty and in the dusty country. In order to maintain a large bureaucratic structure, many generals who led troops to fight wars directly served as civilian officials.
Listening to the meaning of He Fei's words, he was quite unimpressed with He Dubo's approach. It seems that Xiaoqing said that Yuchen was divided into two factions, one of which was close to the He family in the northwest and opposed the proposal to surrender to Persia. Otherwise, He Fei would have been able to say this.
Wu Ming said kindly: "Since the general is disgusted by this title, then I will call you General He from now on." ”
"Exactly," He Fei nodded: "Now there are no people who are messing around, I don't know if my grandfather called me today, but what do you have to say?" ”
Wu Ming said: "That kid is welcome, dare to ask General He, is Chu Tianxing entertained by you?" Where is he staying now? ”
He Fei was a little strange, "The next general is also the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and I am naturally responsible for the matter of ushering in the delivery." However, what did the grandfather do when he inquired about Chu Tianxing's residence? ”
He also heard a little about the grievances between Wu Ming and Chu Tianxing. Now that the two countries are hostile, it is even more unlikely that Wu Ming will visit him. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but change his complexion: "Could it be that Grandpa is trying to make trouble with Chu Tianxing?" ”
"Yes," Wu Ming nodded: "I'm not looking for trouble, I want to make a break with him here, and I want General He to make it convenient." ”
