Chapter 104: The credit given away for nothing

sent Ning Shuya away, and in a blink of an eye, the sky darkened, and just after the Spring Festival, there was still a chill in the air.

Zhong Xiaoshu sat in the room, thinking about the stove while baking it.

Before he could figure out how to help Ning Shuya destroy this Menke wife's family affairs, Yin Zhige came back.

"You're back? Why did you come back a little late today? Zhong Xiaoshu asked casually, and walked over to brush away the cold wind and evening dew for him.

It was already dark by now, and I did come back much later than usual.

Yin Zhige directly pulled Zhong Xiaoshu and closed the door, and said with a slightly serious expression, "Xiaoshu, I'm going to Huya Mountain tomorrow, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back." ”

Huya Mountain? This place is not a place to live in peace.

Zhong Xiaoshu hurriedly asked, "Did something happen?" Why would the second prince suddenly let you go to Huya Mountain? ”

Isn't there any dangerous incident of assassination, the first two times really left a psychological shadow on her, she didn't want to see Yin Zhige's bloodstained appearance anymore, and she felt trembling in her heart when she thought about it.

Yin Zhige shook his head, "This time it is not an order from the second prince, but a will from the Holy Lord himself, let me lead the team to Huya Mountain to suppress bandits." After a pause, he continued, "But this matter is not too dangerous, don't worry." The group of mountain bandits in Huya Mountain had no foundation at all, and the army just didn't care about that group of people all the time, and they dispersed as soon as they were beaten. ”

The emperor personally decreed? And let him fight a mountain bandit who doesn't pose a threat? It's weird.

"Then why did the emperor suddenly let you fight mountain bandits?" Zhong Xiaoshu asked the key point.

"I'm also very surprised, it's like giving me my military exploits for nothing, although I am already a person in charge in the army, but I am only a small hundred in terms of rank, and I don't even have the qualifications to go to the court, the emperor should not even know which person I am, but today he suddenly pointed out that I should go to suppress bandits."

yes, why?

This is too weird, Rao is Zhong Xiaoshu thought about it for a long time and didn't come up with a reason.

"So I stayed behind and inquired for a while, so I came back a little late, but I learned a little bit of news." Yin Zhige's brows did not loosen at all, "It is said that the prime minister recommended me in front of the emperor, so the emperor pointed out that I went to suppress the bandits." ”

"However, I am not familiar with the prime minister, the last time I supported in the prime minister's mansion, it was all the second prince who came forward, and I didn't make any effort in the whole process, it was all the credit of the second prince, I just detained the assassin at the end, and left quickly, speaking of which, I haven't even seen the prime minister's face."

After inquiring about this matter, it did not solve the doubt, but became more strange.

"Uh...... Did the prime minister think that you had a merit in detaining the prisoner, so he specially wanted to repay you? After Zhong Xiaoshu finished speaking, he felt that this statement was very untenable.

It's just to help detain people, how much credit can it have!

Yin Zhige didn't figure it out, and after the two discussed for a while, they didn't come up with a reason, but the Holy Decree had been issued, and Yin Zhige had to go.

The day was about to dawn, and Yin Zhige got up early, ready to leave for Huya Mountain.

Zhong Xiaoshu also didn't sleep very well, he woke up in a daze as soon as he moved, looking at Yin Zhige's figure of packing his bags, the reluctance and worry in his heart surged up, and he got up and grabbed him all of a sudden...... You must be careful on this trip. ”

Even though there are a thousand words in the belly, what comes out of his mouth is only a short command.

Yin Zhige put down his luggage, sat down on the edge of the bed, and gently stroked Zhong Xiaoshu's cheek with his slender and wide palm, and his voice was low and infinitely gentle, "I will, don't worry." If you have free time, I will write to you again to report your safety, and you will be fine in the capital, and I will come back. ”

With that, he leaned down slightly and landed a tender kiss on her cherry lips.

Zhong Xiaoshu's uneasy heart was calmed down a lot by this warm and soothing question, and when the two separated again, her eyes were full of affection, and she smiled shallowly, "You go." ”

She waited at home for his letter, and for his safe return.

Yin Zhige rushed to Huya Mountain with an army in Tianguang, and the journey was extremely fast.

At this time, Zhong Xiaoshu's Wuxiang Building coincided with the opening of the store at noon, and the business was lively, and when the guests took their seats one after another, he had already arrived at the foot of Huya Mountain.

However, he did not immediately order an attack and act rashly, but found a flat place at the foot of the mountain to camp for the time being, carefully prepare for investigation, and then make a plan to suppress the bandits.

In terms of overcoming problems, Zhong Xiaoshu and Yin Zhige are really husband and wife.

Yin Zhige's side properly considered the matter of suppressing bandits, and Zhong Xiaoshu also thought carefully about how to help Lin Shuya withdraw from her family, and was not reckless and rash.

After all, it really takes some planning to do it silently, not to be discovered by people behind the scenes, and to make everything logical and reasonable.

In fact, to be honest, Lin Shuya's marriage is difficult to say, but in the ancient society where etiquette and morality are paramount, it is not easy to stir up a family affair.

However, the son of this soldier is very problematic in his own right, and his first two wives died inexplicably, which is a good breakthrough.

If the reason can be found out, and then the matter will be fermented, then public opinion will be full of people, no matter whether Wei Yuanhou feels sorry for Ning Shuya's daughter, it will be for the sake of face and forced to stop the marriage.

These dukes and counts have always regarded the face of the family as more important than their own lives.

Otherwise, how could the eldest princess of the hall be unfortunate to lead the outer room into the house because she had not been out for five years.

Sometimes the power of public opinion is really a double-edged sword that can be advanced and retreated.

Zhong Xiaoshu had a plan in his heart, and without delay at all, he sent Nianwu to the military department to secretly explore the Ma Mansion that night.

Nian Wu was originally born as a martial maid, and it was overkill to let her serve tea on weekdays, so she finally found an errand suitable for her to do.

Nian Wu was very active, and infiltrated the horse mansion that night.

Because Master Ma, the squire of the military department, was directly in charge of the military department, and the gate of the house was guarded by strict soldiers, Nian Wu also took some effort to sneak into the mansion.

But as soon as he entered the door, he was extremely loose and arrogant inside, especially the little young master, who was looking for songs and having fun every night, and the number of dancing girls who came in and out of the room couldn't be counted, but the door was closed, and these things were locked quietly.

That Ma Gongzi does not have a wife and a wife now, even if he is looking for a concubine, it is not a big mistake, so he is even more unscrupulous.

For two days in a row, the news that Nian Wu brought back was just which girl in the market this boy had called, and what kind of games he had played, which were irrelevant, painless.

Zhong Xiaoshu was not in a hurry at all, let Nianwu go on, and write down everything one by one and tell her.

Finally, the emperor lived up to his wishes, and Nianwu brought back a useful message......
