Chapter 264: Coincidence
Lin Gang said: "Do you want me to avoid it first?" ”
Yue Rong came to see Xie Yuan, even if he wanted to ask Yue Rong about Zhang Ning, he had to wait for someone to finish talking about business.
Who knew that Xie Yuan shook his head: "No need." ”
Xie Yuan and Yue Rong are not very familiar with each other, he estimates that Yue Rong came to him nine times out of ten because of Mrs. Xie, there is no need to avoid Lin Gang, after all, now that Lin Gang is mixed in Jingnan's affairs, everyone is in the same boat, there is nothing to avoid.
Lin Gang saw that Xie Yuan didn't care, so he nodded and stayed.
……
Xie Yuan opened his mouth to ask people to lead Yue Rong in, but after a while, the man walked in with the two of them.
Yue Rong is a very gentle-looking old man, with gray hair, auspicious eyes, and a very kind smile when he laughs.
If you just look at the appearance, almost no one can believe that the person in front of you used to be a bandit leader.
Yue Rong was also followed by a middle-aged man who was slightly younger than Xie Yuan, wearing a crow-blue brocade robe, with thin cheeks and a strong figure.
Compared to Si Swenwen's Yue Ronglai, this man was more like a water bandit, with a military aura that Xie Yuan was familiar with.
When he saw Xie Yuan, Yue Rong saluted and said, "Master Xie." ”
Xie Yuan hurriedly stretched out his hand to help him lightly, and said, "Uncle Yue, don't torture me. ”
"You are my mother's old friend, and you used to be her best friend, you should be my uncle in terms of seniority, if you let my mother know that I have received your gift, my mother will have to teach me a lesson when I go back."
Xie Yuan's expression was gentle: "In the past, I was busy with military affairs, Uncle Yue went to the capital several times and I didn't have the opportunity to meet you, but now it's rare to have the opportunity to meet, Uncle Yue can call me Xie Yuan, otherwise, call me Pengyuan." ”
Pengyuan is the epigram that Xie Yuan's original master took for him.
Taken from Pengcheng Wanli, Yue near and far.
Since Xie Yuan inherited the title of the Marquis of Xuanping, few people have called him like this, and only people who are very close to the division commander will call him a cousin.
Although Yue Rong said that he had a friendship with Mrs. Xie, and even a close friend in the past, he had no friendship with Xie Yuan, not to mention that one was a marquis of the dynasty and was extremely powerful, and the other was just a local squire.
Yue Rong naturally wouldn't take it seriously and call Xie Yuan so directly.
Yue Rong smiled and said: "Hou Ye Xie is joking, although I have old friends with the old lady, but the etiquette must not be abolished, otherwise if others look at it, not only will they look down on Hou Ye Xie, but also say that our Yue family is not well educated." ”
After he finished speaking, he pointed to the middle-aged man standing beside him and said:
"This is the dog Yue Qian, who is a few years younger than Xie Houye."
After speaking, Yue Rong looked at Yue Qian and said:
"Ah Qian, I've come to see Hou Ye Xie."
Yue Qian stepped forward and said respectfully: "Yue Qian has seen Lord Xie. ”
Xie Yuan saw that Yue Qian's steps were extremely light when he walked, and he had a similar aura on his body, so he couldn't help but ask curiously, "What does Brother Yue Qian do?" ”
Yue Qian said: "Back to Hou Ye, I used to be an errand boy in the army. ”
Xie Yuan looked a little surprised when he heard this: "Brother Yue Qian is from the garrison?" ”
"Sort of."
Seeing Xie Yuan's puzzled look, Yue Qian explained: "Two years ago, I was indeed an errand boy in the garrison, and I barely became a captain, but then something happened and I offended Commander Min, so I was relieved of my official position and stayed at home. ”
"My father was afraid that I would have nothing to do at home, so he asked me to run the family business with him, and because I was good at martial arts, I would sometimes help Uncle Wei and their dart board escort some things."
Xie Yuan frowned a little when he heard this.
Two years ago again?
How could it be so coincidental.
The incident in Jingnan happened two years ago, and the root cause of the Bo family's corruption was also two years ago, and now even Yue Qian was removed from the garrison two years ago.
Even if Xie Yuan's mind was not as sharp as Old Madam Xie's, he vaguely felt that something was wrong.
As if he didn't notice the look of doubt on Xie Yuan's face, Yue Qian said in a low voice:
"Today, I followed my father to see Marquis Xie because Mrs. Xie ordered someone to send a letter a few days ago to inquire about the Bo family's troops in Zhangning."
"I originally wanted to write to my father to reply to Mrs. Xie, but I didn't expect that Master Xie would come to Zhangning in person."
"In the past few days, Zhangning has changed a lot, the garrison and the government are in a mess, I heard that Hou Ye Xie came here on the order of the emperor this time to investigate the matter of the Bo family's soldiers, my father was worried that you would be embarrassed here, so I asked me to come over to see Hou Ye to see if there was anything that could help Hou Ye Xie."
After Yue Qian finished speaking, he added.
"Although I left the garrison two years ago and don't know much about the affairs of the Bo family's troops, I know a little about Min Chengyuan. I don't know if these things can help Hou Ye Xie, but my father and the old lady are close friends, so I also want to be able to help Hou Ye Xie as much as possible, so that you can try to find out what is going on here. ”
After Xie Yuan heard Yue Qian's words, he hurriedly said, "That's really good. ”
"Fang Xuzhou, the governor of Ningning, and Min Chengyuan, the commander of the garrison, have already run away in advance after they got the news of the defeat of the Bo family, and there are too few things and evidence left here when we come over."
"I was still discussing with Lord Lin just now, to see if I was going to go to the city to find some people to ask them about it, I didn't think that you and Uncle Yue would come over."
"If you really know about Min Chengyuan, it would be even better, and it would save us a lot of effort."
After Xie Yuan finished speaking, he suddenly remembered Lin Gang, and hurriedly introduced the two of them and said:
"By the way, I forgot to introduce to you, this person next to me is Lord Chenglin Ganglin in the imperial history, and this time he was ordered by the emperor to come to Zhangning with me to investigate the matter of the Bo family's soldiers."
Yue Rong and Yue Qian hurriedly saluted: "I've seen Lord Lin." ”
"Old man Yue, you don't have to be like this."
Lin Gang hurriedly said:
"I have some friendship with Hou Ye Xie, since you are an elder of Hou Ye Xie, I can't stand such a big gift from you, and if you can really provide information about Min Chengyuan, it will be a great help to me and Hou Ye Xie."
"We were still a little anxious just now, and after Min Chengyuan ran away, he left a lot of messes, so that I and Hou Ye Xie couldn't figure it out, now with your help, we still have to be good Thank you."
Hearing this, Yue Rong smiled and said, "Lord Lin is polite. ”
"Don't say that I have an old relationship with the old lady, and I have a deep relationship with the Xie family, I don't want to see the Marquis Xie embarrassed, even if there is really no relationship with the Xie family, the court will try our best to cooperate with someone to investigate the case."
