Chapter 544: Yan Ji

It is not advisable to talk too much about secrets on the street. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The two immediately returned to the lord's office, and asked the deputy city lord Yi Feng to discuss the matter together.

When Yi Feng heard that it was Cai Mao's secret instructions, his brows immediately furrowed.

He is a native of Jingzhou, and he knows how huge the power of the Cai family in Xiangyang is, Liu Biao has just entered Jingzhou, and he can quickly open up the situation, although there are reasons for his background and ability, but he has the support of the two giants in Nanjun, and it is also an important factor for Liu Biao to successfully pacify Jiangnan.

The new Zha Prefecture Pastor took office, announcing that Jingzhou ushered in a new era.

The power of the state pastor is far greater than that of the thorn history.

Liu Biao's entry into Jingzhou fundamentally changed the pattern of power in Jingzhou.

Once a son of heaven and a courtier, the old bureaucratic system is no longer stable, even if the former powerful county is too guarded, he is not a fart in front of the state minister. Liu Biao was not happy, and he took them down directly from the throne of Taishou, without much effort, and no one dared to have a temper. Under such circumstances, it is not surprising that the Taishou are vying to convince the state officials that Liu Biao trusts.

The politics of human feelings has been the same since ancient times.

Politics is human affection, and human affection is politics.

In today's Jingzhou, Liu Biao relies on trusters who are none other than Cai Mao of the Cai family in Xiangyang, and the Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue brothers of the Zhonglu Kuai clan. These three people are the hottest figures under Liu Biao, and the family power is not trivial, the Taishou want to find a backer in the state capital, and the Cai family and the Kuai family are the most suitable candidates.

Wuling Taishou Cao Yin obviously chose to be close to the Cai family.

Cai Mao asked him to cross the border to deal with a player's territory, and even though Cao Yin knew that doing so might cause trouble, he had to agree to show his loyalty to Cai Mao.

What's more, at that time, Zhao had publicly responded to the call of the Kwantung princes, claiming that he was about to rush to Luoyang to rebel, and Ba County would inevitably be empty. With a quick fight, it is completely possible to withdraw in a very short time, and in the case of Zhao Bu leading his troops out and Ba County temporarily having a power vacuum, the risk is not too great.

But Cao Yin never expected that Zhao Bu was actually hiding in the deer collar!

The Wuling army marched outside Zhulu City, which was equivalent to taking the initiative to run in front of the Bajun army.

There is no need to dwell on the rest of the matter.

All kinds of evidence point to Cai Mao, and from the information currently available, it can basically be concluded that Cai Mao is the main owner.

So here's the problem.

"Why does Cai Mao want to kill us?" The fish is unwise and confused.

Zhulu is in Yizhou Ba County, and Xiangyang Cai's is in Jingzhou South County, and the two counties do not border. One is the territory of the Ba County player, and the other is the wealthy family of Jingzhou Nan County, there has never been contact, and the eight poles can't hit one piece, how can Cai Mao be hostile to the Zhulu Territory?

If you don't guess wrong, most of the people who hire Wu Lingkou are also Cai Mao.

The cost of Wulingkou to accept the commission is not low, and ordinary people may not have enough financial resources to ask Wulingkou to help, but for the wealthy family of Xiangyang Cai's family, that money is just a drop in the dime, and financial resources are not a problem.

Wu Lingkou repeatedly attacked the deer leader, but they all returned with a feather, and the losses were quite heavy. With the style of the gangsters, knowing that they could not do anything, they should have withdrawn decisively, and more serious losses have been avoided. But Wu Lingkou didn't do that, and still raised his teachers again and again, like a moth to a fire, leaving painful memories again and again.

This is not normal!

If Wu Lingkou's employer was Cai Mao, everything would have a reasonable explanation.

Cai's family is rich and can afford high commission fees, and belongs to the part of the employers that Wu Lingkou values the most; The Cai family is powerful, and the officialdom is very open, even if a famous rogue group like Wuling Kou, once they accept the Cai family's commission, they know that they will go up the sword mountain and go down to the sea of fire, and it will be difficult to easily withdraw before completing the task.

For the first time, the Zhulu Territory clashed with Wulingkou, and the territory was still in the first-level township stage.

At that time, Yu was unwise, and he had not even left Dianjiang County, how could he provoke the Xiangyang Cai family?

Everyone discussed for a long time, but they were still at a loss.

is as wise as Xu Shu, and it is difficult to figure out the reason for it for a while.

However, finding out that the mastermind behind the scenes is Cai Mao, which has some benefits for the deer leader, at least start to make targeted preparations, so that it will not be like before, and he will not even know who the opponent is. Everyone reached a consensus: continue to follow up the investigation of Cai Mao, and strive to find out the reason for Cai Mao's attack on the deer leader as soon as possible, so that the territory can prescribe the right medicine.

It is much more difficult to investigate a representative of a local wealthy family like Cai Mao than to investigate the Jingzhou envoy, and it is necessary to send more Mo Wei. Mo Wei was dispatched by Xu Shu, and the investigation incident has always been followed up by the intelligence center, and the intelligence center is also under the management of Xu Shu.

Yi Feng didn't leave, he wanted to speak and stopped, and his face showed hesitation.

Yu Buzhi saw it in his eyes and said lightly: "It's just you and me, let's talk about it." ”

Yi Feng bowed and said, "The Lord is angry." The subordinates are not pretentious, but they are just thinking about them or involving important people in the territory, and they are hesitant and dare not say it easily. ”

Yu Buzhi remained silent: "The important person you are talking about is Yuan Zhi, right?" ”

Yi Feng was sweating profusely, but he still said firmly: "Exactly." ”

When Yi Feng was down, he was recruited to the Zhulu Territory, and was soon entrusted with important tasks, and he has always been loyal to Yu Buzhi, and his loyalty to the territory is unquestionable. When discussing just now, Yu Buzhi noticed that Yi Feng's expression was abnormal, although he tried to find a way to cover it up, but with Yu Buzhi's understanding of him, Yi Feng's abnormal appearance could not be hidden.

Yi Feng didn't say it at the time, which showed that he had concerns in his heart.

The three people present, except for Yi Feng himself, were not wise and Xu Shu, Yi Feng could not suspect the lord, so the object that made him hesitate could only be Xu Shu. Yi Feng didn't leave when Xu Shu left, which further confirmed Yu Weizhi's guess.

Everyone knows that Xu Shu is Yu Buzhi's most trusted henchman.

The number one think tank in the territory, the commander of the Zhulu Army, and the chief officer of the intelligence center are enough to prove Xu Shu's importance.

When it comes to Xu Shu, Yi Feng's hesitation is not difficult to understand.

Yu Buzhi doesn't believe that Xu Shu has a problem, whether it is Xu Shu who is in Cao Ying's heart in Han in history, or Xu Yuanzhi, who he knows in the game, he should not be a person who will betray. But Yi Feng's spearhead is pointed at Xu Shu, and he will not be untargeted, there must be his reasons.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

Yi Feng said solemnly: "My subordinates believe that the people around Mr. Xu may have something to do with this matter. ”

Yu Buzhi nodded silently, Yi Feng did not question Xu Shu himself, which made him breathe a sigh of relief for the time being, but the hanging heart quickly rose again. Xu Shu has not yet married, and his mother depends on each other, due to Xu's mother's insistence, there is no servant maid at home, and Xu's mother takes care of all the housework, Yi Feng said "The people around Mr. Xu", in addition to Xu's mother, who else can there be?

Thinking about it again, the first time Wu Lingkou and Zhulu Ling fought, wasn't it the time when Xu Mu came to chase the deer Ling?

Xu Shu officially surrendered, and the territory sent someone to Yingchuan to pick up his mother to settle down, and was inexplicably chased and killed halfway, if it wasn't for Chen Zhi to meet and escort Xu's mother all the way to Ba County, it would be difficult for Xu's mother to arrive safely in Zhulu Territory that time.

Zhululing initially suspected Wulingkou's motive for attacking Xu's mother, and asked Xu's mother why, but Xu's mother was at a loss, she used to live in her hometown, she had no grudges, and she didn't understand why she was targeted. Later, Wu Lingkou came to commit two more large-scale crimes, clearly trying to destroy the deer collar, Yu Buzhi and Xu Shu then thought that Wu Lingkou attacked Xu Mu, it was likely to be for the deer leader, at that time Xu Shu was already the commander of the deer army, and was regarded as an arm by the lord, and it was possible to catch Xu's mother and coerce Xu Shu.

However, there are also many things that are difficult to explain about this speculation.

At the time of the incident, not long after Xu Shu officially joined the Zhulu Leader, how could Cai Mao of Xiangyang know Xu Shu's details? On the way to chase the deer from Mother Xu, Wu Lingkou made a move, how did they know that Mother Xu would come over, and successfully blocked Mother Xu and others on the road? In addition, to deal with an ordinary woman with a gentle temperament and no power to restrain the chicken, please use a famous rogue group like Wulingkou, and hundreds of Wulingkou chase from Jingzhou to Yizhou, is it too grand?

The attack on Xu's mother is full of suspicions.

Yu Buzhi once thought that maybe it was a misunderstanding, caused by Wu Lingkou accidentally hitting the auxiliary car, but Wu Lingkou attacked several times later, and the possibility of misunderstanding was very small. It's just that in the next few times, Wulingkou joined forces with other forces, and the goal was directly aimed at Zhulu Ling, so everyone didn't continue to think about Xu Mu.

After Cai Mao surfaced, some doubts that had not been taken seriously before appeared again.

When Mother Xu came to chase the deer leader, she was attacked in Jingzhou, and the Cai family was Jingzhou Haoqiang; The person who troubled Xu's mother at the beginning was not Wuling Kou, he was not strong in combat but arrogant, he should be used to being tyrannical and domineering, Chen Zhi thought that it was a private soldier of a certain family or a wealthy family, and now it seems that it is likely to be Cai's private soldier, Chen Zhi's judgment is very accurate; If it weren't for the fact that they happened to meet Chen Zhi, Xu Mu and the others would probably be difficult to get out, but no matter how strong Chen Zhi is, he is just one person, with Cai's power in Jingzhou, there are many means to intercept them by open-faced means, but Cai's chose the most disgraceful and decisive way to deal with this matter, and has been persevering afterwards, why?

Cai Mao's deal with the deer collar is aimed at Mother Xu, or is it aimed at the deer collar itself?

It's foggy in front of you, and it's hard to see.

Yi Feng suggested at this time that the people around Xu Shu might have something to do with this matter, and he thought that he had made some discoveries.

After being silent for a long time, Yu Buzhi said slowly: "You mean Mother Xu?" ”

He didn't want to ask like that, but he had to face it head-on, and his heart was entangled.

When it comes to Xu Shu, it is inevitable to suffer from gains and losses.

"It's not." Yi Feng said solemnly: "Do you remember that Mr. Xu's house came to a beautiful woman?" ”

That beautiful woman, of course Yu Buzhi remembers, it was a few days when Xu Shu took leave to leave the territory temporarily, and Yi Feng temporarily took over the intelligence center to report on what happened when Mo Wei found out that the commander was from Jingzhou Mansion. Yi Feng once mentioned the woman, saying that she had been living in Xu Shu's mansion and had once aroused someone's gossip soul.

Yu Buzhi initially thought that the woman named Yan Ji came to Zhululing and lived in Xu Shu's house, maybe she had a special relationship with Xu Shu similar to the covenant of in-laws, so as to make fun of Xu Shu, but later found out that it was not.

Xu Shu clarified that Yan Ji only knew Xu's mother, because of the changes in her family, she had no relatives, and she knew that Xu's mother was coming to chase the deer, so she ran to take refuge. Mother Xu felt that it was inconvenient for a beautiful woman like Yan Ji to live alone, so she left her in the mansion, Xu Shu and Yan Ji were not familiar with each other before, let alone have a special relationship.

And Yan Ji has already promised others, but unfortunately her husband's house made a fire, and the door died in the flames, poor Yan Ji became a survivor before she passed the door, and the villagers pointed to her Kefu. Later, Yan Ji's own family suffered an accident, so "Kefu" was quickly upgraded to "nuisance family" and "broom star", relatives and friends did not dare to take her in, the villagers were worried that she would invite disaster, and she was not allowed to stay in her homeland, Yan Ji was forced to leave her hometown.

It was the kind-hearted Mother Xu who took her in.

After learning about Yan Ji's life experience, Yu Buzhi sighed.

Of course, he didn't believe that Yan Ji was a broom star, the ancients were ignorant, and regarded even those who suffered misfortune as unlucky, but today's people will not be so narrow-minded. Yu Buzhi went to Xu Shu's house on the pretext, and when he saw the woman named Yan Ji, she was indeed like a peach and plum, her demeanor was down-to-earth and generous, and there was no loss in etiquette between conversations, it is not difficult to see that her family background should not be bad, and she has received a good family education. If it weren't for the successive changes in her family, it would be hard to imagine that a woman like Yan Ji would be left behind, adrift.

Yu Buzhi then plucked Xu Shu, and simply married Yan Ji and truly became a family.

Xu Shu just smiled and shook his head, but didn't say anything.

Later, when I talked to Yu Di about this, Yu Buzhi realized that his unintentional move was very inappropriate.

Xu Shu was born in a poor family.

The cold family refers to the family with low power, not a poor and lowly family, and the cold family is also called the Shu family, which is still the door class, and it is not the same thing as the poor class. Since it is a family door, it must retain some of the family's atmosphere and style, the view of the door is deep-rooted, and the position of the wife is usually looking for a woman who is equivalent to the door, although it is also possible to marry other women as concubines, but like Xu Shu, who has not yet married a wife, it is absolutely impossible to accept a woman who has had a marriage contract and is called a "broom star".

The fish is unwise and ignorant, and it is very rude to ask Xu Shu to marry Yan Ji.

Xu Shu didn't point it out clearly, thinking that he knew that the lord didn't understand these rules, and he didn't mean to offend, and it was inconvenient to explain the key clearly so as not to be embarrassed, so he could only laugh at it.

Mother Xu is a knowledgeable person, and she knows that Yan Ji may be criticized if she lives at home for a long time, if it is just herself, she has nothing, but there is Xu Shu, an unmarried young man living at home, and some things are difficult to explain clearly. Not long ago, Mother Xu accepted Yan Ji as her righteous daughter to avoid suspicion.

Yan Ji Daxu Shu for a month, and since then the two sisters and brothers have been commensurate with each other.

The meaning of Yi Feng's words clearly pointed to Yan Ji.

Yu Buzhi frowned and said, "Tell me your reason?" ”

"My subordinates have heard Mr. Xu say that Yan Ji is not from Yingchuan, and Mr. has never seen it when he was in Yingchuan. When the subordinates learned the news, they were uneasy, worried that Aunt Xu and Mr. Xu would be deceived by the traitors, so they took it upon themselves to secretly recruit the seniors to check on Yan Ji's background, and the seniors told the subordinates that Yan Ji was not a Yingchuan accent, but an accent in the Xiangyang area of Nanjun......"

Yu Buzhi did not blame Yi Feng, Yi Feng was completely out of public intentions and eliminated hidden dangers for the territory.

The old man was willing to agree to Yi Feng, presumably because of this.

Yu Buzhi now fully understands Yi Feng's concerns.

Xu Shu is a native of Yingchuan, and Xu's mother never left Yuzhou before coming to chase the deer, where did the relatives and friends in Jingzhou come from? From Yingchuan to Ba County, you must pass through Jingzhou, is it possible that Xu Mu met Yan Ji on the way to chase the deer?

Yan Ji has a Xiangyang accent, and the Cai family is a wealthy family in Xiangyang!

Mother Xu was attacked, and the deer collar was violated, could it be related to Yan Ji?
