Chapter 129: The Deceased

Suzaku was asking for directions to the house, but he didn't see the man, and even when he passed through the village, he only heard the voices of women and children, where did the men go?

All the way forward, there is no official road, and the path is always from one village to another. Suzaku returned to his heart like an arrow, and did not stay, putting aside the doubts in his heart and just moving forward.

Nanshan City, located between two large rivers, is the choke point into the Xia Kingdom. The two rivers are the Yan River and the Yellow River, and the rivers with different sources have become extremely wide and turbulent. There was no confluence, and when the two rivers were more than 20 miles apart, they turned their heads down, which created the special status of Nanshan City.

Before they arrived in front of the city, they saw a neat procession on the left and right sides, some returning to the city, some walking along the city wall to both sides, and all of them were adult men.

Only then did Suzaku understand that the adult men in the village were all here.

When I entered the city, I saw that the men who returned to the city were tired and muddy, and after questioning, I learned that the water of the two rivers was rising for unknown reasons, and if the embankment was not reinforced, Nanshan City would be flooded, so I summoned the adult men in the jurisdiction to come.

Suzaku didn't feel anything at first, but when he thought about it, he felt that it seemed to have something to do with the volcanic eruption, and he had something to do with it, so he secretly put some gold bricks at the entrance of the city, and left a word to strengthen the embankment, and left the city north to go to Kyoto.

In Nanshan Castle, Suzaku didn't get much useful information, probably because the distance was far and the traffic was inconvenient, and the information transmission was slow.

At this time, Suzaku was riding a horse, performing light skills in broad daylight, which was a bit shocking.

There is a post station on the official road, so there is no need to consider the problem of lack of horsepower.

After a few castles, getting closer and closer to Kyoto, Suzaku found that officers and soldiers began to appear on the official road, not the guards of the city, and the discipline was very strong, and it should be an army that had been on the battlefield.

Army? Suzaku mentioned again, looking at the direction of the march is also Kyoto, isn't there a change in the city?

In the city of Kyoto, the old emperor is approaching his twilight years, and the prince has not been appointed among the three princes, all of which are uncertain factors, maybe one day it will cause a coup d'Γ©tat.

For the control of the Xia army, Suzaku still understands. The Imperial Private Army, mainly concentrated around Kyoto and the Imperial Castle. Externally, it is in the hands of the three major families.

One is the Guo family, where the imperial lieutenant is located, the mercenaries in the south and the east. One is the Fan family, which controls the western realm. There is another one, which is the Qin family, which controls the north.

At this time, what Suzaku saw was the army controlled by the Guo family, and he didn't know what his intention was to rush to Kyoto?

Suzaku was in a hurry, and in front of him was the last castle on his way to Kyoto, Nanyo Castle, and Suzaku planned to stop and find out the news first.

Nanyang City was already a city taken over by the royal army, but it did not have the slightest intention of blocking the Guo family's army, and directly let the army enter the city.

Suzaku finds the largest restaurant in the city, which is one of the properties.

The people in the restaurant didn't know that Suzaku was their real master, and they treated Suzaku as a guest. Suzaku sat down on the second floor, ordered a few dishes at random, and planned to call the person in charge of the restaurant with a code.

This was arranged by Suzaku, and the shopkeeper of the restaurant did not participate in the intelligence work, but just ran the restaurant well. There are other persons in charge of intelligence work, all of whom are called responsible persons. The responsibility is often carried out by some subordinates, who usually pretend to be buddies, food delivery vendors, etc.

Because no restaurant has a dark room for monitoring, as long as your own people hit the code, it will be passed to the person in charge. The person in charge can judge the identity of the person and the severity of the matter according to the code.

Without waiting for Suzaku to send out the code, Suzaku heard a familiar voice downstairs, smiled slightly, and sat on a chair waiting for the man to come up.

After a short time, the sound of "oh oh" going upstairs sounded, and a figure came to the second floor.

Suzaku's room was facing the staircase, and the door was wide open, and Suzaku was sitting facing the door, and the guests who went upstairs could see it as soon as they raised their eyes.

When he saw Suzaku, the man was stunned, trembling slightly because of excitement, wiped his tearful eyes with his sleeve, and threw himself into Suzaku's arms like a bird.

"Girl, I'm worried about you, are you okay? It was silent when we left, it had been so long, and there was not a single letter, what did you let us do? ”

The person who came was none other than Shuqi. Stroking Shuqi's long hair, Suzaku was also a little teary-eyed. Going to the Wolf Sudden Country is a life-and-death situation, and I just don't want to affect anyone, but I unexpectedly hurt their hearts.

It took a while for the two to settle down. Looking at Shuqi's crying face, Suzaku couldn't help but joke.

"It's a dart head of a dart game, and I'm always crying when I'm fine, could it be that this is the ability to practice darts?"

Shuqi was not ashamed, and wiped her face with both hands at will.

"Isn't it happy to see you, in front of you, I am a child who doesn't grow up, cry when I want to cry, laugh when I want to laugh, who makes you spoil me."

Seeing this coquettish look, Suzaku smiled heartily, this is his own person.

At this time, Xiao Er brought up the things ordered by Suzaku, and was very polite to the two, and did not leave after the wine and food were placed on the table, and stood aside with his head down.

"Let the chef pick up the delicious food and bring it over, and then bring two jars of the best wine."

After Shuqi finished giving the order, Xiao Er Ying Nuofei also went downstairs.

Suzaku's eyes widened, not knowing when Shuqi's panache had become so big.

Shuqi saw the confusion in Suzaku's eyes, sighed, and his expression became a little melancholy.

"Girl, I don't know, I'm in charge of all the restaurant business now."

"What about the dart game? Who is responsible? Suzaku was a little surprised.

"Dart game, dart game......" Shuqi's words were a little hesitant, and finally gritted his teeth, "The dart game is broken." ”

"What?" Suzaku didn't fight when he heard it, and he went to the dart game that he had just created before the Wolf Sudden Country, and it was only more than half a year, and he broke up?

Shuqi knelt down with a thud and lowered her head.

"Please ask the girl to punish me, it's my disadvantage."

Suzaku had already thought that this matter was by no means simple, otherwise according to Shuqi's temperament, he would never let the dart game be disbanded. At that moment, most of the anger disappeared, and Shuqi was pulled up.

"What about the rest of the game? Is our village still there? ”

Suzaku asked, Shuqi felt even more guilty, in Suzaku's heart, these people are much more important than the dart game or something.

"They are all very good, and I have sent them to various restaurants to collect information. The village is still there, and the younger ones are in the village. ”

Hearing that everyone was fine, Suzaku was relieved, and as for the dart game, it was scattered and dispersed, and he himself was not much interested. As long as the restaurant is still there, it will be fine, and now it looks like the restaurant is running as usual.

Suzaku suddenly remembered someone in his heart, and couldn't help but ask Shuqi.

"What about Meng Liang? Didn't he help you? ”
