Chapter 87: Youzhou (43)

Xu Zhi did not go back to his residence directly, let alone to the rice shop. Instead, he drove the carriage directly into another house, and then hurriedly greeted people and put the two little girls who were still in a daze directly into the tunnel, so that he was relieved.

This is not a safe place either, if he is really suspected, after all, so many people are watching along the way, those officers and soldiers will soon come to the door.

For now, the only way to do this is to transfer the two little girls. But the officers and soldiers were staring closely...... What a hot potato! What is the use of kidnapping two little girls? Those powerful families would rather have no people than fame! The wolf eagle should go and kidnap the children and grandchildren of the Lan family!

Xu Zhi changed his clothes and went to the rice shop.

The autumn grain harvest failed, and although military rations were brought over from the capital and other regions, the local people's food was not enough. Now that the loom has spread, there are more and more people weaving cloth. The Qian family has three shops in Cangzhou City, and they have not suppressed the price of cloth, so the life of the people this year is much better than in previous years.

As soon as Xu Zhi got out of the carriage, he heard a commotion.

A thin guy from the rice shop stretched his neck to look around, and when he saw Xu Zhi, he bent down with a smile and said, "Shopkeeper Xu." ”

"Why is it so lively over there?" Xu Zhi saw that many people ran to a teahouse.

The guy smiled: "Mr. Wei Guo came to talk about the book today!" ”

Another fat guy also came over to talk: "I heard that today's content is the third story of "My Motherland and Me". "They can't read and write, they can only count simply, so they can't read the content of the monthly magazine, but they love to hear stories being told.

Xu Zhi controlled the expression on his face and entered the backyard of the rice shop without saying a word.

The fat guy followed and stretched his neck: "I really want to hear it once!" ”

Skinny guy: "Didn't you already hear it yesterday?" ”

"This is different, this is Mr. Wei Guo himself talking about the book!" The fat guy pouted, "Yesterday, I listened to the scholar next door read to his mother, and I just listened to it." ”

"I heard that this time the script also talked about the homeless man and Sister Yao!" The skinny guy said in a very incredible tone.

The fat guy nodded: "I heard the scholar next door say, this book of "My Motherland and Me" is not only about generals, but also about ordinary people, because everyone gets together, and this is what makes a country." ”

The thin guy reacted: "Maybe you will write us in?" ”

The fat guy nodded, his eyes lit up: "Maybe!" ”

Skinny guy: "Hey, tell me this story again, last time I was standing outside the teahouse and listened to it, and I didn't hear it clearly enough." ”

The fat guy said proudly: "This time the story begins with a general......

"That general fought bravely, but unfortunately he didn't see reinforcements for a long time, and was finally defeated and killed......" Zhan Xing faced the black oppressive crowd, he was not stage frightened at all, he slapped the wooden board on the table, "I hate that the enemy actually hung the general's body in the open high place in the city, trying to force the people to see the facts in front of them." ”

Song Guan stood at the city gate, watching the resting soldiers surrounding Captain Lan in the obedient book.

A homeless man who wanted to steal the general's bones was admonished by his companions, who reprimanded: "How can a general be insulted like a thief if he died for his country?" ”

Man'er, the woman in the Qinglou, happened to hear their words by the window, and she also made up her mind. She beckoned the homeless to come over and confirmed that the two homeless men wanted to steal back the general's body.

In the end, Man'er gathered the two sisters, and the three of them went to the enemy-occupied mansion and expressed their willingness to serve the enemy general, Tukhalin.

The other party was naturally happy to see three delicate women coming. After the body search, the hairpins that could be used as sharp weapons were taken away. And the three women served him by night.

In terms of strength, they couldn't hurt Tukhalin. They hid poison in their earrings and prepared to poison Tukhalin.

Unfortunately, Tuharin was not a wine bag and a rice bag, and when he felt that something was wrong, he shouted at the guards, and finally the three women were captured by the guards before they could kill him. The three women, bent on death, threw themselves at the guard's sword, and all of them died.

Tukhalin was poisoned, and the whole government was in chaos.

The homeless men and beggars in the city worked together to knock down several of the guards and carry away the general's body.

Tukhalin was poisoned, which caused the morale of the army to be disturbed, and finally learned that the other party's reinforcements had come, so he simply abandoned the city and fled.

"These homeless people are doing a good job!" A soldier said loudly.

"Everyone is patriotic! It's well written in the book! The other soldier couldn't help but nod.

Lan Ronghe took a sip of water, cleared his throat, and then said, "Big guy, do a good job, maybe your name will be on board next time." ”

"Captain Lan, you see that we have been together for so many years, how can we say that we also have a friendship! Look through the back door......" Another captain stepped forward and hooked Lan Ronghe's shoulder, grinning.

"Get out, who's been with you for so many years!" Lan Ronghe deliberately shouted with a look of surprise, and then pointed at the soldiers, "Who of you has been with Captain Ji for so many years, stand up!" ”

The soldiers laughed, and the meat jokes came out.

A rare smile appeared on Song Guan's serious face, and looking at the hearty Lan Ronghe, he remembered the letter written by Song Rong.

The situation of the Lan family can be described as walking on thin ice, first people from all parties want to enter the Lan family, and then there are many assassinations and frames. The "burning of the sick corpse" mentioned in the monthly magazine involved the Lan family in the storm, but fortunately, the emperor's holy decree of "the first publication in the world" arrived.

The news from the military camp has already come to the capital that someone in the court wants to destroy the Lan family. Fortunately, the emperor supported the Lan family, so it was fine. It's just that I don't know what the emperor thinks, and what the imperial doctors in the capital think of this matter.

Probably someone reminded that everyone saw Song Guan standing not far away, and quickly sneaked away.

Lan Ronghe and Captain Ji couldn't sneak away, so they stepped forward to say hello.

Song Guan left Lan Rong to have a secret chat: "Captain Lan, there has been a change in the spies recently, and there may be a war." ”

Lan Ronghe was a little surprised, generally the Hui people attacked, they waited for the autumn to harvest the grain, so that the grain could be looted for winter. Now that the grass and trees on the grassland are luxuriant in spring, the cattle and sheep of the Hui people can be raised well, just enough to give birth, and the Hui people should be very busy.

Song Guan sighed: "Last year, the Hui people did not attack, mainly using the hidden weapon given by your mother, which interrupted the enemy's sharp spirit several times. Coupled with the poor grain harvest last autumn, the Hui people gave up the attack. I heard that it was very cold outside the Seychelles last year, and it was time for the Hui people to come over. ”

Lu Yingfang changed the trap drawings from Taobao, not only killed the wolf in Hengjiu Mountain, but also made a trap for the assassin in Pingyang Mansion. When these drawings were given to Di He, they were also given to Song Rong.

These traps were set not far outside the city, and any spies who came back to them would be killed. Once they touch the hidden weapon, they don't know where a sharp arrow can pierce their chest.

Before the war began, a large number of the vanguard troops of the Hui were wiped out, which greatly damaged morale.

The night raid that Hui is used to has also been recognized! Suddenly a Kong Ming lantern floated in the sky, illuminating them brightly, and the soldiers on the city tower did not use archers, but directly pulled up the sharp arrows sharpened by the wooden sticks on the chariot, and ten sharp arrows were fired at once. More than a dozen chariots fired condescendingly, and without even revealing their heads and faces, they wiped out the vanguard troops of Hui.

Then, this autumn and winter passed peacefully.

Song Guan handed a stack of papers to Lan Ronghe.

Lan Ronghe opened it and looked at it, and after a while, he was overjoyed: "General, this is ...... It worked? ”

Lan Ronghe laughed when he saw Song Guan for the first time, and he patted Lan Ronghe on the shoulder: "It has been tried, and the combination of cement and brick is extremely strong." It's time to close the nets in the city! ”

Now that we know the situation in the city, the army has already obtained a lot of information. Even the news that Hui was going to attack was only learned by intercepting the information of the fine work.

Now that cement and bricks are about to be used, in order not to reveal secrets, it is time to close the net one by one.

Xu Zhi felt that his eyelids kept jumping, looking up at the sky, the sun was setting, and the remnants of the sun were like fire, which did not feel like a good sign.

At this time, he saw his men hurrying out of the backyard of the rice shop.

The subordinates used the secret passage, and something happened!

"My lord, those two little girls have run away!" The subordinate spoke, and Xu Zhi's face changed.

"Why did you run away?" Xu Zhi couldn't believe his ears.

The subordinate responded: "The two of them are pretending to be asleep, I don't know why the black girl brought ** and made Myrdal faint." ”

It's useless to stun one, and there are still people guarding the courtyard outside, so that the two little girls can run away! Xu Zhi resisted the urge to slash his subordinates to death with one palm, gritted his teeth and said, "Send someone to find it." ”

The subordinate hesitated for a moment: "My lord, none of our people can be contacted......

"Shopkeeper, shopkeeper, Mother Li from Chunfeng Building is here." The skinny guy shouted as he stood in the front bunk.

Xu Zhi took a deep breath and walked to the shop in front of him expressionlessly.

Mother Li of Chunfeng Lou is his subordinate, and now she is looking for him in broad daylight, something must have happened.

He had just walked to the shop in front of him, and Li's mother was facing away from him. I don't know why, he suddenly had a bad life, and his vigilance suddenly rose. He turned to run, and a large net fell from the sky and covered him tightly.

He was about to struggle, when several knives were already reaching out from all directions.

"Mother Li" turned around, and it was actually Captain Ji dressed up.

The man crossed his hands on his hips and commanded the soldiers around him: "Fork back!" ”

The thin guy and the fat guy were already trembling with fright, and the man glared: "Get these two back too." ”

"Spare our lives, we don't know anything......"

"We're just buddies...... "The two men were so frightened that they knelt down and begged for mercy. After all, they are also people who live on the border all year round, looking at this posture, it is estimated that the shopkeeper Xu is a spy!

"If it is found that you are innocent, I will naturally let you go." Captain Ji, who was dressed in women's clothes, said, "It's sealed, and you will search thoroughly, especially the secret passage." ”

Captain Ji is also reluctant to dress as a man, the problem is that he is the shortest, and he is very similar to Li's mother, who is five big and three thick. Especially if he wears a cloak in the spring, if he wears a skirt in the summer, he will be laughed at by his colleagues for the rest of his life.
