Free hands?

Kou Lian's heart moved, and his face came out with curiosity: "Under the New Year, Ah Jian is very busy. ”

"What am I busy with? This year's wind and rain are smooth, and everyone originally had a good harvest, thinking that they could have a peaceful birthday. But who knows, I heard that there were soldiers and horses transferred on the Beidi side. ”

Xun Yuan opened his mouth and said.

Zong Han's expression suddenly froze, he restrained his smile, and looked at Xun Yuan coldly: "Sui'an, you don't need to tell the people in Beijing about these things, right?" ”

"The county lord doesn't talk nonsense." Xun Yuan waved his hand at him, looked at Kou Lian with concern and asked, "How did the county lord get sick?" How did I hear that the so-called son of King Ning is making a fuss, and your county lord is sick? ”

Although Kou Lian knew about this, he didn't dare to say nonsense, glanced at the two of them in embarrassment, and bent down with a smile: "It's just a coincidence." In those days, the county lord was already uncomfortable, but he heard that something had happened. The county lord blamed himself, saying that the so-called lucky star did not play a role, causing damage to the royal bloodline, and then he fell ill. ”

Xun Yuan looked at him in surprise, and shook his head again and again: "This is not the temperament of the county lord." What's more, what son of King Ning? That person is dead, King Ning is not sick, is the county lord serious? You don't know, or you're lying! ”

"Eunuch Hugh blame...... Small, guess, that's it......" Kou Lian shrunk his shoulders and laughed, but his heart was shocked:

Not bad!

If that is really the son of King Ning, and he is dead, why is King Ning not even sick? Although it is rumored that King Ning was extremely sad after recognizing the body, his only son was killed by someone, how could he just be sad!?

"Forget it. You look at the yard in Yongtai Fang all the year round, and it's normal not to know this. ”

Xun Yuan saw his expression at a glance, waved his hand, and carefully interrogated Shen Shen about all the details when he left the palace recently, after asking about it, Fang sighed and instructed him:

"Go back and tell the county lord, we two old guys, greet her and the queen mother. Those idle things outside, let the county lord not take it to heart. What is the matter of King Ning and the Han family, let His Majesty the Emperor worry about it.

She is a delicate little lady, so she has to accompany the Queen Mother in the palace raw, and it is the most important thing to find a good family in the future and live a peaceful life for a lifetime.

"General Zong and I are guarding Dongning Pass, and there are Youzhou Xiao Jiedu envoys who are horns of each other, and the defense line in the north of the country must be impregnable. In case you hear something going on, please don't panic with her and the Queen Mother. The old slave will write back. ”

Xun Yuan chattered and said a lot of advice, and Kou Lian sweated when he heard it. Zong Han couldn't help laughing: "Lao Xun, I don't know, I thought that the lord of Lizhu was the one you saw since you were a child, and it was your daughter!" ”

"Presumptuous!" Xun Yuan first broke off, then glared at him again, and then scolded: "Don't talk nonsense! Your honor, what am I, but I am just concerned about one or two. ”

looked at Kou Lian again and said: "These two sentences, you must not learn them to the county lord, so as to save her from being angry." Now that you have set out, I will not delay you any longer. When I return to Beijing, I will definitely say hello for me. ”

Zong Han was surprised and chuckled: "Lao Xun, are you so stingy? Seeing that it's noon, why don't you ask the guards to have lunch in the mansion before leaving? ”

Xun Yuan glanced at Kou Lian hesitantly.

Kou Lian smiled and excused himself: "It's not that the villain doesn't know how to lift, it's true, if you have lunch at General Zong's mansion, the villain will definitely eat in a panic." So how do you ride a horse? If the lady of the Yu family hears about it, she should blame the villain for being greedy.

"It's better to keep it, the villain will come to Dongning Pass next time, and he will definitely be the first to kowtow to General Zong, and then ask the general to reward the exquisite banquet."

"It's fine. Then there you go. ”

Xun Yuan immediately agreed, and immediately sent Kou Lian out.

Seeing him hurriedly walk away again, Zong Han only felt more and more puzzled in his heart, and quietly ordered someone to investigate Xun Yuan's whereabouts, and after a while, the man came back to report, Zong Han Qi said: "He is really concerned about the Lord of Lizhu, it's just?" ”

I thought to myself: "Is there any other meaning in what I just said?" What code words did you dare to agree on? Or did I make a gesture code......"

Studied but cannot comprehend.

I couldn't help but look at the gift boxes that filled the table.

None of them moved......

Zong Han's heart suddenly moved, and he remembered the secret decree of Empress Dowager Shen before.

He had always scoffed at that incident, so he threw it to Xun Yuan to investigate.

Xun Yuan seems to be investigating, but he seems to have been carefully bypassing it, the last time he said that he went to Youzhou, it was in the name of the Yu family. But when he returned, he said again, "Nothing."

How could nothing come of it?

Zong Han's face sank: "Someone is here, it's called Zong Lu." ”

Zong Lu is Zong Han's nephew. His father died on the battlefield that year, and his mother died of illness. Zong Han took pity on him for being lonely, so he raised him by his side, named Uncle and Nephew, which is actually no different from his own father and son.

Especially his identity is not so obvious, the court has always cared much about it, and all kinds of matters in Zong Han's private affairs are handed over to him to do.

"What does the general command?"

When he goes out, Zong Lu is an extremely slippery person - therefore, he and Zong Xin, the second lang of the Zong family, are close friends.

But in front of Zong Han, Zong Lu is a person who abides by the rules to the extreme, and has never exceeded the rules by half a point.

Zong Han was extremely satisfied with his article, and he didn't say anything at the moment, and asked him directly: "Is the matter at hand open recently?" ”

This is Zonghan's habit. Before something big is ordered, we will first ask if it can be put on the table, rather than directly imposing it.

Zong Lu's face was solemn, and he bowed respectfully: "There are two more things, if you step up, you can finish it tomorrow night." Nothing else. ”

"Well, after those two things, let the rest go. This one thing is the most important thing to do first. ”

Zong Han's face sank like water, and after explaining the matter, he asked, "Is there any difficulty?" ”

Zong Lu didn't agree directly, but thought about it first, and asked, "If the Dai family of Saburo Niang is involved?" ”

"Sin plus one degree." Zong Han shouted in a low voice.

Zong Lu's pupils shrank slightly, and he lowered his head: "If the Xiao family is involved?" ”

"Report me." Zong Han's expression was cold, and his voice was erratic.

"Is there a time limit?" Zong Lu asked again, just like all the errands he did on weekdays.

Zong Han liked him the most, and his mood finally eased by three points, and his face was a little warmer: "There is no deadline." It's just that this matter is important, and if you can do it quickly, try to do it as quickly as possible. ”

"What the Lord of Lizhu County is doing now is for the country and the people. However, she did not grow up in the Yu family since she was a child, so the affairs of the Yu family may not be related to it.

"Yu Jiaerlangjun has been doing business in Beidi all the year round, and he has dealings with all the departments of Beidi. If you must buckle the hat of collaborating with the enemy, you can find a few so-called ironclad evidences anywhere.

"Although I don't know whether the Queen Mother's original intention is to clear the Yu family or eliminate the Yu family; But in front of the general, he must first say a word: If the Yu family is wrong and not guilty, he will not make something out of nothing. ”

Zong Lu bowed, solemn and serious.

Zong Han nodded seriously: "That's exactly what I meant." ”
