Chapter 172: The Place Ten Years Ago
The sun is half setting, and the afterglow is faint. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Hua Yu opened her eyes, covered with a thin big fur, and Wei Zhenzhen was lying on the table in front of her boredly looking at herself.
"Yikes!"
Hua Yu suddenly opened her eyes, but Wei Zhenzhen was taken aback, and her sitting body immediately rushed up, and her crystal jade face suddenly turned crimson, and she was a little at a loss.
Are you so scary? Hua Yu couldn't laugh or cry.
I even wonder if I chose the wrong maid?
Fortunately, he didn't want to tease the shy little maid's bad taste, but said:
"When did Shui Aoyun leave?"
Unexpectedly, he fell asleep on this recliner in front of Shui Aoyun, and Hua Yu couldn't help frowning when he thought of this.
Wei Zhenzhen hurriedly stepped forward to help Hua Yu, put a thick cloth pillow on his back, and said with his head down:
"Back to the owner, the water boy has been gone for more than an hour, and said that he will take his wife to the General Inspection Mansion next time to talk to the owner. β
Hua Yu put his mind at ease, meaning that he didn't have time to come to him recently, and it seemed that he was about to start preparing, so of course he couldn't lag behind.
"Zhenzhen, go get me some food, I'm a little hungry, prepare another carriage, and go out with me after eating. β
"Yes!" Wei Zhenzhen flew away after answering, maybe she didn't have to blush so much before leaving Hua Yu.
Hua Yu, who was only stunned, rolled her eyes speechlessly as she looked at her rapidly departing figure.
In the twilight, in the small alley where Yangzhou City was already lit up and not spacious, a carriage drove slowly, turning three times and turning two times, and finally stopped in front of the gate of a wide courtyard with a clear ash wall in the depths of the alley.
Wei Zhenzhen lifted the front curtain of the carriage and jumped down lightly, stepped forward, and knocked on the door.
Squeak!
The heavy mahogany door opened from the inside, and a gray-clothed woman stepped out, looked at Wei Zhenzhen gently, and asked:
"I don't know where the girl is from, why do you come to our house?"
Wei Zhenzhen barely couldn't speak, but her voice was also low and panicked.
"I, I am the maid of the owner of my family, my name is Wei Zhenzhen, and the owner said that he came to visit Miss Shan Meixian and Miss Wanjing. β
After finishing the sentence, Wei Zhenzhen's mood calmed down, and her eyes were stable but still a little shy to look at the woman in front of her.
The woman's eyes flashed with a gleam, and she secretly thought: The names of Madame and Miss are known to most forces, but this is the hidden place of my faction in Yangzhou City, and almost no outsiders know who the owner of the village in this girl's mouth is?
Thinking in her heart, but she was not slow in her mouth.
"Miss Wei, I'm really sorry, Madame and Miss haven't been back here for ten years, please tell your owner. β
The woman did not have the slightest idea of asking about the identity of the other party, and the absence of Madame and Mademoiselle was the best way to deal with it.
"Oh, that's it, that's okay, the owner of my house said that if Miss Shan Meixian and Miss Wanjing are not there, please pass on this letter to them, and he said that the old man came back ten years ago. β
Wei Zhenzhen took out the letter from her sleeve and handed it to the woman as she spoke, but she looked natural when she calmed down.
Hua Yu, who was through the curtain of the carriage, looked at the courtyard wall that was already a little unfamiliar in her memory, and she couldn't say what it was like in her heart.
Over the years, with the ability of the dark department, he has naturally figured out that this courtyard is the stronghold of the Dongming faction of Shan Meixian Mother and Daughter, who saved their lives back then, in Yangzhou.
It's just that, according to the news from the shadows, Shan Meixian and Shan Wanjing's mother and daughter left Yangzhou a few days after sending off Huayu that year, crossed the sea and returned to Ryukyu, and then encountered the plague and war in Ryukyu.
And in those days, Hua Yu was focused on protecting the clan and taking revenge, and lived in the Changfeng Dart Bureau all day long, and did not go to find the mansion where the mother and daughter of the Shan Mei Fairy lived.
It's been 10 years.
If it weren't for the fact that the Dongming faction still had a foundation on the Central Plains Continent, they would send people to purchase some supplies every once in a while, and Hua Yu wouldn't even know their situation at all.
Ryukyu had suffered from the plague, and since there was nothing on the island that was in the interests of the mountain villa or the Hanajia village, he would not squander his power as the lord of the village.
Therefore, the secret guard of the mountain villa did not fall on the Ryukyus.
It is very rare to know the details of their presence on the island, except that the plague and war in the Ryukyus were put down two years ago, and Shan Meixian has become the de facto controller of the island.
It's just that for some reason, she hasn't returned to the Central Plains Continent for a long time, and Hua Yu can't see her.
I came here suddenly today, but I got news that important people from the Dongming faction might arrive in Yangzhou in recent days, so I wanted to make an appointment in advance.
Goodbye after ten years, Hua Yu always remembers the promise.
It's just that I don't know if the gentle woman still remembers?
Back in the courtyard by the Qingshui River, Hua Yu began to look through the information of all the forces in Yangzhou sent by Hua Yun.
With sufficient financial support, the secret guard in Hua Yun's hand expanded rapidly, although it cannot be said to be pervasive, but for this couching place, it is extremely clear to explore.
Three piles of one-meter-high materials are placed on the wooden table in front of them, and each page is written in small letters of mosquitoes and flies, recording the ins and outs of the various forces in Yangzhou City, the strength and weakness of the information.
And Hua Yu is to pick out from these intertwined and complicated forces the ones he will use after he takes up the post of Jianghua Prefecture General Inspector in the later period.
Whether it is suppressed, co-opted, or eradicated, he must be careful to make precise judgments from this information.
The choice to take refuge in Yang Guang was a big gamble, although Hua Yu thought that the probability of losing was not large, but the more she understood the world, the more Hua Yu felt the mystery of this world.
Mystery represents unknowability, and unknowability often represents accidents and variables, which means the possibility of failure.
Hua Yu can't fail, so he must minimize the chance of accidents and variables through search and analysis.
He believes that even if there are still some hidden forces hidden in this glorious world, it is impossible for there to be no clues.
As long as they can be found, then Hua Yu's plan is half successful.
And in the thick information in front of him, there are clues that Hua Yu needs, and he must now sift out these subtle information from them.
Finding out those subtle information from this mountain of information is extremely draining on the mind, and it is necessary to keep all this information in mind, and if you don't see a piece of information, you have to synthesize all the information to connect, refine, and reason, such a huge and complex and meticulous work, only he and Nameless can do it in the current villa.
In the previous life, he was a master of this.
And Nameless, he can't see through it, but he has no doubt that he will be able to do it.
Su Yao and Wei Zhenzhen sat quietly at the door to cultivate, getting up every two quarters of an hour to stir up the lamp oil, keeping the light in the room in a bright and soft environment, and then adding warm ginseng tea to Hua Yu.
Hua Yu intently browsed the information recorded on each piece of paper, drawing a circle in one of them from time to time as a mark, and saw that the sensitive information was still copied and recorded on the blank paper next to it.
The dim and soft light, with the occasional breeze sneaking in, swaying the light, just like the fluctuating and changing hearts of people.
Due to the accident of being reborn in this world, with the clan and the mountain villa outside the mountain to the extent that it is today, no one knows whether it is more passive or more active for Hua Yu, a young man with a weak crown.
The environment is a melting pot that devours everything, and the more he struggles, the more he falls into it, and even Hua Yu himself seems to have changes that even he himself has never thought of.
Although the original intention has not been forgotten, there seems to be something more on top of this original intentionγγγγγγγγ
With an adult mind early on, in contact with such a wonderful and mysterious world, no one would believe it if they didn't have some ideas.
At first, because he was busy surviving and finding the enemy's goal, Hua Yu had no time to think about it, but now, the mountain villa outside the mountain stands here, and it has enough strength to make a stronger voice.
Coupled with the requirements of the two most fundamental goals, some subtle things are beginning to gradually ferment and gestation.
Under the light, the rain of flowers, there seemed to be a flame called ambition in that serious and bright and deep gaze.
