Chapter 125: Facing the Enemy and Changing Generals
When Zhan Shaofeng heard this, his brows tightened even more, and he seemed to be a little unsure of the news.
At this moment, I heard Fu Niang say at the door: "Young master, you are here too." ”
"Hmm." I saw Guanyun enter the house with a solemn expression, nodded to Zhilan, and went to the bed to look at the thrush and ask some questions. After confirming that Thrush's injuries were fine, he turned to Zhan Shaofeng, who was pondering, and said, "Shouldn't we start investigating those spy things right now?" ”
I saw Zhan Shaofeng shaking his head and said, "The goods will be inspected in the next two days, and then they will be sent directly to southern Xinjiang." The military situation over there is urgent, and medicine is urgently needed, so it is obviously impossible to investigate this matter in detail. ”
At this time, Zhilan interjected and said, "That...... How about a substitution escort? That Liu Muzhi did this, I'm afraid it was the idea of hitting this batch of goods. ”
"Lan'er is right." Guanyun echoed, "The top priority at the moment is to quickly remove the people from the dart game. Although the Zhanjia Dart Bureau has been famous for going south and north over the years, after all, people's hearts are unpredictable, and some people here will be bought by Liu Muzhi. It's better for you to accept the officers and soldiers sent by the imperial court, and the road will be safer. He said this for a reason. Although Zhan Shaofeng had previously taken over the errand of purchasing medicinal materials, he refused to use the officers and soldiers arranged by the imperial court, but insisted on letting his own dart master escort the goods. Now that Liu Muzhi has taken advantage of the loophole, these dart masters are naturally useless.
His brother and sister sang and harmonized, but Zhan Shaofeng kept frowning and didn't say a word, making it impossible to guess his thoughts. After a long time, he said, "That's all there is to it." Then he turned his head and glanced at Zhilan solemnly, and said to Guanyun: "Without further ado, I'll arrange it now." ”
Guanyun hurriedly said: "I'll go with you, and I have to talk back to my father about this matter." Of the officers and soldiers in the capital, my father knew their details best. ”
"Hmm." Zhan Shaofeng nodded, and said to Zhilan again: "Miss, take your leave." So he left with Guanyun.
Watching their backs disappear into the dark night, Zhilan's heart was full of worry. The thrush accidentally revealed his identity today and escaped overnight, will he startle the snake? Do you know if Liu Muzhi will do anything again? Looking at the thrush covered in bruises, Zhilan remembered the serious injury her brother suffered three years ago, although it was injured by the arrow, but it was also the cause of the Liu family. Thinking of this, an evil little thought rose in her heart. Fortunately, she was summoned to the palace that day, otherwise, how could she hold the biggest hole card in her hand? Let's see how this matter will develop first, if the Liu family has any more yin behavior, then you have no choice but to be unkind to me.
The night passed quickly. In the next two days, Zhan Shaofeng and Guanyun were outside and never returned home. What exactly they were doing, Zhilan didn't know anything about. She had been too busy caring for her injured thrush to ask about the progress of the matter.
Speaking of the thrush's injuries, it was not very serious, it was mostly due to the external injuries caused by the whipping, and it seemed that Liu Muzhi did not intend to kill her. But despite this, the whip marks dug deep into the flesh one by one, and the flesh looked blurry. For an unmarried woman, if such an injury leaves scars all over her body, it is almost like killing her.
After Zhilan's careful care in the past two days, Thrush's injuries have slowly improved, but she has been silent and seems to be very heavy. Everyone also knew that it was not easy for her to be frightened in Liufu all these years, so they were careful not to mention it, for fear that her mood fluctuations would be too great and affect her body's recovery.
After changing the medicine that day, Zhilan saw that the thrush was still depressed, so she quietly motioned for the painting to come over and let them talk about some interesting things about the Lin Mansion recently, so as to divert the attention of the thrush.
So everyone gathered around the thrush's bed, and you and I were lively and happy, but the thrush remained silent. When Qi'er talked about one day when the little master teased the dog and was chased all over the yard by the dog, everyone burst into laughter. Zhilan also laughed along, but when she turned her head, she saw tears in the thrush's eyes.
Zhilan sighed lightly and said helplessly: "Alas, it's good to cry." ”
"Look at you, kid, you should be happy that you're finally back." Fu Niang handed over a handkerchief and said.
The thrush said with tears in her eyes: "The slave is incompetent...... It's a big deal......"
"How so! If you hadn't taken the risk to bring back the news, wouldn't Liu Muzhi have succeeded in his treacherous scheme? Zhilan comforted.
Thrush still shook his head and cried: "But, if it weren't for the slave's carelessness, I could have found out more news......"
Zhilan said: "It's a good thing to come back alive. Besides......" She pretended to purse her lips and smiled mysteriously, leaned over to the thrush's ear and whispered: "Even if it is planted this time, the lifeblood of their Liu family is still in the palm of your young lady's hand, and I can't run." ”
Thrush glanced at Zhilan in surprise when she heard this, and saw that her expression didn't look like a coax, so she asked hopefully, "Really?" ”
Zhilan smiled slightly and nodded and said, "Well, so you can recuperate with peace of mind." Then he picked up a bottle of wound medicine and said, "As for the scars on your body...... Feel relieved! With the medicine I dispensed, it will never leave a scar, and I guarantee that you will have a smooth and greasy body! ”
"Yikes! Miss ...... "All the girls in the room are blushing. The thrush finally burst out laughing, and when his eyes narrowed, the tears that had been stored flowed out. Seeing her burst into laughter, Zhilan finally breathed a sigh of relief. The two sisters of this thrush painting heart are all the same love for drilling. It's really worrying.
At this time, in the study of Liufu, there was only Xiaowu Yumo alone in the house. I saw him standing leaning against the wall, and his expression looked bored. The large study was very quiet, and there was hardly a sound to be heard. Only a person with a deep inner strength can hear that someone is actually talking in this room. Because, behind that thick wall, there is an extremely hidden secret room. In Liufu, only Liu Muzhi's absolutely trusted confidants can know about the existence of this organ.
At this time, I only heard someone in the secret room say: "Back to the master's words, the slave has been monitoring Zhan Shaofeng since the night before, and after he received the goods yesterday, he really replaced the people of the Zhan family's dart bureau overnight." Master, you are like a god! ”
