You ......" Wei Tongzhi opened his mouth to say a word, and the carriage suddenly stopped, and when it stopped, he almost hit the opposite car wall, but fortunately, Wei Yaoqing was quick and pulled him back.

"Why did it stop all of a sudden?" Wei Tongzhi lifted the curtain, leaned out, and complained, "Lao Cai, how did you catch the carriage?" ”

Only then did he poke his head out, and it was not Lao Cai who was facing him, but a military general with good facial features and a tall figure, Lao Cai shrank his head and stood aside trembling, obviously the carriage stopped suddenly because of the military general in front of him.

Wei Tongzhi frowned, searched around in his mind, and had no impression of the military general in front of him, so he asked, "I don't know who Your Excellency is?" ”

The military general also brought a small team of more than a dozen officers and soldiers behind him, and when he heard this, he took off the sign on his waist and shook it in front of him, then took it back, and said, "My surname is Hu." Routine check-up, I hope this adult will not blame. ”

He flickered, Wei Tongzhi didn't see it clearly, but it was not easy to open his mouth to look at it again, so he asked, "What happened?" ”

The military general did not answer immediately, but looked behind him, Wei Tongzhi turned around and faced a little head that poked out and blinked curiously, and he didn't know when this girl poked her head out, of course he didn't care about these little things, he only turned to the military general surnamed Hu and explained: "This is my niece." ”

The military general nodded, stretched out his hand and made a gesture of please, Wei Tongzhi got down from the carriage first, and then Wei Yaoqing, when he came down, he was probably in a hurry, and he didn't stand firm and stumbled into the general, but he retreated in an instant.

The military general glanced at her, ignored it, just lifted the curtain and got into the carriage to go in and check it carefully before coming down, and then said coldly: "You can go." ”

"What's going on?" Wei Tongzhi noticed that someone behind him had pushed him, looked back behind him, and saw that it was Wei Yaoqing, he coughed hurriedly, turned his head, and asked, "This official is a member of the third rank of the imperial court, Lord Hu, you checked my carriage without saying a word, and the official asked you to check, but you didn't answer a word, is it too unkind to take this official seriously." ”

"What if I don't answer?" The military general snorted, "There is a thief who steals the important things around Ben Jiang, and Ben Jiang looks at that figure coming towards you, so naturally you should investigate!" ”

"What did Master Hu lose?" Wei Tongzhi arched his hand, his expression was sincere, and he took a step back first.

The other party's words obviously wanted to calm the matter, the military general thought for a moment, took off the brand on his waist and handed it over: "It's not a secret, someone stole the general's waist card, and the general was afraid that he would do something with the waist card, so he chased all the way here, and the person disappeared here. ”

Wei Tongzhi sighed when he heard this, and said with emotion: "In this way, it is indeed an important matter, Lord Hu, you ......."

Before she finished speaking, she suddenly sounded two light snaps, but she saw that Wei Yaoqing beside her had already reached out to knock on the brand, and when she heard the sound, it was like the sound of gold and stone, and she said strangely: "What's wrong with this brand?" ”

The military general was stunned for a moment, then withdrew his hand, looked carefully at the sign in his hand for a while, checked it again, and hung it back on his waist, and then arched his hand: "Offended the two adults, please!" ”

Wei Tongzhi was surprised for a moment, raised his hand to return the salute, and after the military general left, the two sat back in the carriage.

"What's going on?" Wei Tongzhi said, "That Lord Hu's waist card was stolen?" Or was it a false alarm that it wasn't stolen at all? Or," his expression became solemn, "he's staring at our Wei family. ”

"Not really." Wei Yaoqing looked at Wei Tongzhi's solemn expression, touched his nose, and was a little embarrassed, he told Wei Tongzhi too much today, so that whenever he was surprised, he became suspicious, for fear that it was sent by Huai Guogong or someone else.

"Yes, as soon as he opened his mouth, he called me sir, indicating that he knew early on that this was my Wei family's carriage......" Wei Tongzhi was still talking.

Wei Yaoqing couldn't help but interrupt him: "Uncle, you are wearing an official robe, and I am also wearing the robe of the Yin and Yang Division!" ”

When smart people are stupid, Wei Tongzhi was stunned, his face became embarrassed, he coughed twice, stiffened his back, and asked her, "How do you know if it's not?" ”

A waist card with gold characters on the ink background appeared in front of him.

Wei Tongzhi's face changed suddenly, and he took the waist card and flipped it over: "Isn't this the waist card of Master Hu?" How is it in your hands? ”

"No, this is not Lord Hu's real waist card." Wei Yaoqing took back the waist card, took it in his hand and knocked it, like the voice of gold and stone, "Is it exactly the same as the one we saw just now?" ”

"Look, it's pretty much the same." Wei Tongzhi rubbed his eyebrows, "But I haven't looked closely, what's the matter?" ”

"This is the first one, that is, the waist card that Master Hu showed to my uncle when he stopped us." Wei Yaoqing said and shook the waist card in her hand, "Lord Hu was like this at the time, and soon, my uncle didn't see it clearly!" ”

Wei Tongzhi nodded.

"If I guessed correctly, it should be someone who stole Lord Hu's waist card, and Lord Hu chased us here, and then said something to us, but the waist card was changed back unknowingly, so later Lord Hu let us go." Wei Yaoqing said, "A court official carries a fake waist card that is exactly the same as his identity waist card, which is a strange thing. ”

Wei Tongzhi said: "How do you know that this piece is fake?" ”

Wei Yaoqing turned the waist card and aimed the side at Wei Tongzhi, but he didn't know where he pinched the waist card, and the waist card was separated from the middle.

Wei Tongzhi was amazed: "Such a realistic, and such a subtle mechanism!" ”

"Craftsmen of the lower ninth rank, my uncle may rarely encounter them." Wei Yaoqing said, "The world is so big, there is a place where a craftsman who specializes in young children's frolicking things made such a brand called Mozi, which was used by adults in that place to coax children at first, and then it was exclusively for young children to play. ”

"You know a lot." Wei Tongzhi looked at her meaningfully, "I even know such a thing." ”

Because I've seen it before, she said to herself, and then she snorted, "I've seen it in a book." ”

"What book?"

"I don't remember."

The answer to this ...... Wei Tongzhi shook his head and smiled, as expected, he paused for a moment, and then said, "Is this piece in your hand from Master Hu when you got off the carriage...... Uh, got it. He was embarrassed to say steal, but this method, but after touching it, he got it. He said in his heart, it's really humiliating for not being a gentleman.

Wei Yaoqing nodded: "It's that time." I took the opportunity to change the real one back and take the fake one back. ”

"Where did that really come from?" Wei Tongzhi said strangely, he knew very well, the two of them had been talking just now, but they didn't have time to steal Lord Hu's token.

"It was the moment the carriage stopped, and it appeared next to my uncle." Wei Yaoqing said as she took out a small cloth bag from behind her, took out a candied fruit from the cloth bag and threw it into her mouth, "I saw that Master Hu came to stop the car, so I hid this thing and exchanged it with him by the way." ”

Wei Tongzhi nodded, and then wondered: "Where did you get this candied fruit?" "There's nothing but a bag of dried fruits.

"Appearing with the waist card next to my uncle, it's probably a reward!" The girl said and handed one over, "Uncle wants to eat it?" ”
