Bu Tong looked at Tang Xuanlin's backlight, and his appearance with light was noble and cold, like a god descending, and he was a little stupid for a while.

Chun Tao saw Bu Tong's gaffe, and coughed lightly behind him in time, Bu Tong was shocked, and slowly stepped forward to salute,

"I've seen Lord Tang."

After all, so many people are looking at it, and the surface work must be done well, Bu Tong looked at him with a smile,

"I heard that Master Tang has a lot of things to do lately, how do you have time to come to this cloth village?"

Tang Xuanlin came in the door,

"I accidentally passed by, and when I heard the voice of the young lady, I came to take a look, and it seemed that some people didn't know whether they were alive or dead, so they came in to take a look."

Bu Tong helplessly raised his forehead, looking at the rich businessman who was shaking like chaff, and more and more people gathered over,

"Let's go, it's just a curiosity, if this boss feels embarrassed, he will give up."

The wealthy businessman was grateful and slipped away with his wife in an instant.

The shopkeeper watched for a while, and watched Tang Xuanlin raise his eyes to look at him, the whole person trembled, and hurriedly saluted Bu Tong, "Miss Bu, the little one will pack the leather and cloth and send it to the house for you." ”

After speaking, he also disappeared with the junior apprentice in an instant, Bu Tong stepped forward slowly, looking at the person in front of him with the flashing holy light,

"Xuanlin, it doesn't have to be like this."

Tang Xuanlin sighed softly,

"Tong'er, you don't understand these treacherous businessmen, they are actually very bold, but they deliberately made such an appearance to win sympathy."

Bu Tong naturally knew, and changed the topic lightly, "What's going on with the military department?" ”

Tang Xuanlin said,

"Within two days, there will be results."

Tang Xuanlin lowered his head and continued to add in Butong's flickering big eyes, "I will not delay the appointment with Tong'er." ”

Bu Tong smiled, took half a step back in the curious eyes of passers-by to say goodbye to Tang Xuanlin, and took Chun Tao to walk slowly on the street.

"Miss, you want to know where we are going to find out about things?" Chun Tao has been thinking about the doubts that Fang Cai has not landed.

Bu Tong lazily looked at all kinds of sachets on the side of the street, and said nonchalantly, "It's okay, it's just some old things." ”

Somebody will know.

"Thank you Miss for saving your life, if you are free, can you come to Yipin Pavilion to sit down and taste the newly acquired Longjing?" A voice sounded behind them, and the two of them turned their heads to look at a wealthy businessman they had just seen looking at Bu Tong with a smile from a few steps away.

Bu Tong suddenly changed his mind, since this old thing is not unknown to anyone, and he has his own reliable people to investigate, Tang Xuanlin is right, why should he believe these sleek and sophisticated businessmen?

"This boss is polite, I didn't do anything, didn't you also get a kick."

The rich merchant smiled helplessly, "That is the now famous overseer of Dongchang, Tang Xuanlin!" It is rumored that he is ruthless and kills people like hemp, and I am a small citizen in the market, and being crushed to death by him is not like an ant, if it weren't for the presence of the young lady, I am afraid that the king of Tang Hades will definitely behead me under the horse. ”

The corners of Butong's mouth couldn't help twitching, "You're really, imaginative......"

The man made a "please" gesture, "Please also ask the young lady to appreciate her face, and you must know everything below." ”

Idle left and right are also idle, it is better to listen to what he says first, Bu Tong nodded calmly,

"Thank you very much."

The rich merchant rubbed his hands nervously, "Miss is polite, my surname is Wang, you just call me Wang Gui." ”

Butong Shi Shi sat down, "Your name is really rich." ”

Wang Gui smiled and added tea to Butong, and waved his hand to let Xiao Er go down, "Miss is curious about Mrs. Huaxi?" ”

Bu Tong picked up the cup and gently smelled the tea, "Well, good tea." It's not that I'm curious, but I just overheard it, and now that General Liehu's affairs are all over the city, he naturally wants to find out a thing or two. ”

Wang Gui stepped forward, "The little one was in the army back then, this matter, there is no more innocent than the small one, our brothers in the battalion at that time, but they were really dead and wounded, and there are only a few left." ”

Bu Tong raised his eyebrows, looking very interested, "It turns out that Boss Wang also served under General Liehu?" ”

Wang Gui waved his hand, "At that time, I was under the hands of Zhenguo Gong, that is, the Xie family guarded the northwest back then, and Zhenguo Gong also had soldiers and horses at that time, but he lost the city and retreated again and again, and finally His Majesty took over the military power and integrated it into the hands of General Liehu." ”

Butong's white and slender fingers brushed the edge of the teacup, bringing up bursts of hot mist,

"It seems that Zhenguo Gong has been angry with General Lie for many years."

Wang Gui nodded again and again, "After all, when the old prince was here, when the Zhenguo Mansion was in charge of military power, when did he use such dirty means to fight for power?" ”

Bu Tong sneered,

"Dirty methods?"

Wang Gui scalded a pot of liquor for himself, and drank cup by cup with the aroma of tea, "Mrs. Huaxi, is the only sister of General Liehu, married to Yun Yi, the commander of the imperial guard, that is really a strange woman." ”

"At that time, Beiliang besieged from the west, 100,000 iron cavalry approached Kyoto, at that time, General Liehu was only a leading general, with 10,000 elite soldiers stationed in Kyoto City, Zhenguo Gong with more than 50,000 troops, guarding the last pass in the northwest, but who knows, Beiliang people sent 30,000 military horses, detoured to attack Kyoto City, and at that time, Mrs. Huaxi, happened to take her young son to her mother's house, and was captured by the enemy......"

Bu Tong snorted,

"Didn't General Lie rescue his own sister and nephew?"

In fact, it is a helpless move.

The army is pressing, the family and the country are all over the world, and a person like Lie Zhanhu is afraid that he can do such a thing.

Wang Gui shook his head and nodded, "Yes or not, the people of Beiliang are threatening to attack Kyoto City with Mrs. Huaxi as a threat, so General Liehu asked for help from the northwest garrison, that is, the Zhenguo Gong military camp where we are located." ”

Bu Tong saw him pour a large glass of liquor angrily, and his throat was a little hot.

"Zhen Guogong didn't send troops?"

Wang Gui smiled sadly, "Zhenguo Gong refused on the grounds that he was unable to resist the attack of Beiliang on the grounds that his troops were insufficient, but in fact, the elite troops of Beiliang had already rushed to the ...... of Kyoto City with all their might."

Bu Tong sighed softly.

"Mrs. Huaxi was bound in front of the Beiliang people, suffered a lot of insults, in order not to embarrass her husband and brother who defended the city, she resolutely committed suicide, General Liehu and the Imperial Forest Army with 10,000 subordinates, desperately resisted, so as to protect Kyoto City, and the commander of Yunfang was also tortured in the hands of the Beiliang people for three years, so that he was able to exchange for returning to Beijing......"

Bu Tong felt a little heavy in his heart, and his eyes fell far away on the city wall in the distance.

"The generals are righteous and should be admired by the world, and as a result, Your Majesty has seized the military power of the Zhenguo Gong?"

Wang Gui shook his head, already a little smoky, "Zhenguo Gong on the grounds of guarding the town, Your Majesty can't say anything to him, just to solve the plight of Kyoto and rescue Mrs. Huaxi, Zhenguo Gong repaired a letter, asking General Liehu to hand over the military talisman so that it can be incorporated in the future, Your Majesty thought that he disregarded Kyoto's comfort, so he stripped off the military power, besides, we lost again and again, 50,000 elite soldiers, even the 30,000 remnants of the Beiliang people can't resist, how can Your Majesty endure it......"

Bu Tong sighed softly, "In that case, why do Yun Fang and General Lie have a knot?" ”

Wang Gui drank the wine in the cup, and stood up with a little staggering on the table, "The family and the country that Miss said are all in the world, and the 'family' is before the 'country', even if Commander Yunfang knows that his uncle made the right choice at that time, but he lost his mother at a young age, suffered a lot of humiliation, and the old commander also died of depression when he was eighteen years old, how can he take the heart to make peace with his uncle?" ”

Seeing that he was leaving, Bu Tong suddenly spoke,

"Sir's words don't seem to be ordinary businessmen."

Wang Gui smiled and turned around, "Miss don't be careful, they are all idle in the house, rich and noble idlers, that noble person is eager to protect the calf, I only feel that Miss is curious, so I came to solve the doubts, although the villain can tell all of them, but I really don't want to get involved in the chess game of the nobles, please forgive me." ”

Bu Tong smiled and watched him leave, Chun Tao relieved himself from the shock and stepped forward, "Miss, what's the matter with this weirdo?" ”

Bu Tong raised his cheeks and said firmly,

"It's the third uncle's person."

Chun Tao's mouth opened wide, and she couldn't believe it, "Xiguo Gong? ”

Bu Tong nodded, "Although my uncle is not involved in the court, he holds the lifeblood of the world's merchants, and his subordinates are thousands of merchants, well-informed and have many ears and eyes. ”

Chun Tao collapsed and covered her face, Bu Tong smacked her lips and got up,

"Go back and buy some gifts to visit my uncle, I haven't seen my aunt since I saw my aunt at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet before."

The two of them were going back, and the moment they walked out of the box door, Chun Tao was so frightened by the outsiders that she screamed, and when she noticed that the situation was wrong, she hurriedly covered her mouth, and Bu Tong instantly stabilized herself, and looked at the person with a heavy face with a smile,

"Commander Yun, are you in the mood to go to the Laofu Teahouse with me to listen to the board play?"

Yun Fang Muran raised his head, nodded slowly, and led the way in front of Butong,

"Let's go, Cloud Commander."

……

When the sky was slightly dark, the old man downstairs was still babbling and singing Bu Tong's "Shiro Visits Mother", Yun Fang was lying on the table unconscious, Bu Tong swept the wine jar on the ground, and sighed softly,

"In January, I went to Dongchang to deliver a message, asking Tang Xuanlin to send two people over to send Yunfang back to the imperial camp."

January appeared, and a dark shadow almost disappeared in the corner, "Miss, Jinyiwei went outside the city today to check on the subordinates of General Lie, and he is not in Kyoto City." ”

"The news is well-informed," Bu Tong looked down at Na Yunfang, struggling to wake him up,

"Yun Fang, Cloud Commander? Are you awake? Go back to the house and sleep again! ”

Yun Fang was drunk into a puddle of mud, Bu Tong was helpless, and he couldn't let others see the appearance of the commander of the imperial guard, so he had to arrange the people around him, turned his head to look at January and said with a smile,

"January, with your figure, can you climb through the window with a man on your shoulder?"

……

The previous imperial camp was occupied by Tang Xuanlin, so the newly established camp behind it was narrower, and the location was much more remote, almost to the point of no one, the sky was already dark, and only the two bonfires in front of the imperial camp were burning fiercely.

January couldn't hide his figure after carrying Yunfang, and followed Butong and said in a deep voice, "Someone." ”

Bu Tong hurriedly went to the door to look, a strong figure in black stood there, and then he breathed a sigh of relief,

"General Lie, why are you here?"
