Chapter 24: Don't Leak the Word

In the Wuwen Xuan, Liu Meng, the captain of Jinyiwei, who came to deliver the message, stood next to Han Hong's bookcase. Liu Meng was Han Hong's close guard in Jinyiwei, and he came to tell Han Hong about an errand handed down in the palace.

Han Hong was not very happy to leave for the palace early tomorrow morning, if he didn't come to Liu Meng to pass the word, how could he leave his new wife alone in the main room. Han Jun just said hello to him, saying that his wife really talked to Wei Yang alone, thinking that Wei Yang was in the main courtyard, he was uncomfortable.

It's just that Wei Yang said that the female thief haunted near the Guining Hou Mansion, but he couldn't ignore it. He instructed Liu Meng, "Go and tell Zhou Yi that two days before my marriage, someone saw a suspected female thief near the Guining Hou Mansion, let him check it, and report it as soon as there is news." ”

Liu Meng answered and asked him, "When will the adults go back to the guard office?" ”

"What's the hurry? Can't Zhou Yi be a director? ”

This is the tone of not preparing to go back in a short time, Liu Meng was quite surprised, "Lord Zhou can naturally be a director, but ...... Didn't you say that you would go back to the guard house on three days after the wedding? ”

After saying that, he was forced to lower his voice by Han Hong's gaze, and Liu Menghan shrank his head with a smile.

Han Hong snorted, "What do you know?" My lord, I'm also a family man! The ministers next to him have a few days off for a big wedding, and this commander has worked hard more than them, so naturally there are only a lot more! ”

After he finished speaking, he saw Liu Meng with a simple pestle there, and scolded him in disgust, "Go back to the guard!" Don't disturb this conductor on vacation! ”

Liu Meng hurriedly bowed and left, and as soon as he turned around, he was called back by Han Hong, "Go and tell Zhou Yi, I've been checking the affairs in the south for a while, and I guess there will be a letter soon, if there is news, you must come to tell me, don't leak the news!" ”

He said vaguely, but Liu Meng understood that this incident in the south was the accident of the previous commander. For that incident, their commander Han personally went around to Weishan Lake, where the accident occurred, and sent someone to investigate it carefully along the line.

This matter cannot be taken by surprise.

......

Thousands of miles away from Beijing, outside the city of Zhenjiang Mansion, there is a patchwork courtyard on the mountainside of Lishan Mountain, the open front and back of the house have the atmosphere of the northern house, and the pavilions and pavilions that move to the scenery highlight the exquisite elegance of the water town in the south of the Yangtze River.

A unique courtyard that integrates the charm of the north and the south, but the name of the courtyard is just ordinary - Fujin Garden.

It's no wonder that such a chic yard has a popular name, because the owner of this yard is the master of Zhenjiang Yifu Su Quansu.

Su Quanben is just a seller at the foot of this chestnut mountain, because of a coincidence, he was sold to the north and south to make a fortune, but he is a dime a dime, and he gets along with his neighbors very badly, and he can't stay in the city, so he took his wife and a pair of children to live in Fujin Garden.

On weekdays, the gate of Fujin Garden is closed, and only those who deliver vegetables can enter the garden. Recently, the people who deliver vegetables have been a lot more attentive to deliver food, and everyone feels strange, so they seized an opportunity this day and asked him why, "Several dishes have to be said to be half a day old, and you are still in a hurry?!" ”

The food delivery waved his hand and said no, showing a satisfied smile, before he said slowly: "The iron rooster has plucked its feathers!" ”

The flowering of the iron tree and the plucking of the iron rooster are the rarest, especially the well-known picks like Master Su. These words drew half the people of the street over. The villagers ran fast, shouting and passing words one by one to the bridge where the food was delivered, and the two middle-aged men who were standing on the side who did not follow the crowd were almost squeezed off the bridge.

"What's wrong with the people in this village? If you don't do business, you all listen to the story? The man in the green cloth robe smiled.

The one who was almost squeezed down was wearing a lake-colored robe, and like the other person, he was dressed as a passing scholar, but he didn't smile, he reached out and patted the person next to him, "Go over and listen." ”

The other person was slapped by him, came back to his senses, made eye contact with the man in the lake shirt, and walked over among the villagers.

The person who delivered the food talked about the hearty place.

“...... After sending food to his family for so many years, I thought about forgetting it, who would have thought that two months ago, I went to the door and opened the door to a different person. The man's young eyes were sharp, and he asked me what I was doing. Foreign accent, I was startled, I said to deliver the food, he looked me up and down for a long time, asked me to put the food down, I thought to myself, this is not even giving money? As soon as he raised his hand, he threw a large piece of silver nude! ”

"Yo!" Everyone was amazed, "What about after that?" ”

The food delivery smiled, "After that, I will deliver the food every two days, and every time it is such a big silver naked!" ”

"Yikes!" Everyone was envious.

A woman dressed as a monk shook her head and said she didn't believe it, "Then the Su family doesn't even donate the sesame oil money to keep the peace, it can't be so generous!" ”

A plain-dressed believer next to her also said, "That's it! Last year, the master came to persuade him, and if he didn't give money, he wouldn't even give him a cup of tea! ”

These two people said this, and some people said that Su Quan's name was picked, and the piles and piles were all nailed. The food delivery can't be explained, can't you show them all the silver naked, right? The people in the village were noisy and shouting, and they couldn't tell the difference. Suddenly, a local dialect came out of the crowd, "It's true or not, let's just follow this big brother and take a look!" ”

It was the man in the green cloth robe who spoke, and when he said this, he gave everyone a wake-up call, and someone immediately responded, "A scholar is a good brain!" Tomorrow will deliver food, let's go together! ”

......

Early the next morning, as soon as the sky was bright, everyone made an appointment under the willow tree by the stream outside the village and went to Fujin Garden together.

In the early morning, the mountain was exceptionally quiet, and everyone walked to the back gate of Fujin Garden, but heard the sound of chaotic walking in the courtyard. Everyone looked at each other strangely, and the two foreign men also raised their eyebrows, and the man in the green shirt asked, "There are quite a few servants hired by this family?" Do you want to go out today? ”

The food delivery person shook his head and said no, "I didn't hear that I was leaving!" And how can there be so many people in their family? That Master Su has always been reluctant to pay! ”

Someone said: "I can give you so much reward, and I must be able to buy a few more people, otherwise where would I be able to move around so much?!" ”

This is reasonable, the foreigner didn't speak, and shook his head when delivering food, "It's impossible, and the Su family usually doesn't go out, and they don't even go out to meet relatives during the New Year!" ”

It's useless to guess a lot, and the man in the lake shirt said directly: "Let's knock on the door and deliver the food first!" ”

This is a serious matter, and the food delivery person stepped forward and knocked on the door a few times. On weekdays, when he took a few breaths, there was a sound of footsteps inside, and the sharp-eyed man took the food and gave money, but today, he knocked on the door, but the sound of walking in the room suddenly disappeared, and it was strangely quiet.

Everyone was also stunned, and the food delivery person raised his hand and knocked on the door a few times, "Deliver food to the house!" ”

The voice fell a few breaths, and there was movement in the room, but it was especially light, which was different from normal days. The food delivery couldn't help but be strange, and the two out-of-town men who were close to him saw his change, and the two tacitly retreated half a step out of the crowd and hid in the crowd.
