Chapter 236: Missed
In Xu Jiang's house, Ma Eryi laughed and scolded on weekdays, and asked Liulang with a solemn face, could it be that Zhang Kuo already knew something, otherwise, how could he doubt our body?
Liulang was still indifferent and said lightly: "If I guessed correctly, Zhang Kuo's county government should have taken secret measures against Lijiazhuang and planned to encircle and suppress Lijiazhuang." The reason why I was able to target me was only because I had too close contacts with Li Jiazhuang during these days, which gave them the impression that I was in cahoots with Li Jiazhuang. β
He paused, "If that's the case, you don't have to be distracted to deal with Zhang Kuo. As long as there is a little false word, they can be sent without a single soldier. β
Ma Er was worried: "But I see that Zhang Kuo is really difficult to deal with, and it is very difficult to deal with." The first few times I went to Qinglu Village to pick up Hemai, I saw him around Hemai, if ......"
Ma Er's meaning is self-evident, if Zhang Kuo really has doubts about Liulang, and wants to start with Hemai, the consequences will not be under their control. Perhaps, he will hurt Hemai, maybe, he will take Hemai hostage, maybe, he will let Hemai know something she can't know......
Rokuro frowned slightly, obviously understanding what Ma Er meant.
"When the turmoil in Lijiazhuang passes, I will stay by Hemai's side more. Zhang Kuo, there is no chance to get close to Hemai. β
Ma Er nodded, and said with a smile: "If there is anything you want to pay attention to now, as long as you mention Hemai, you will definitely be in good spirits." β
Rokuro smiled but didn't say a word.
Ma Er sat quietly for a while, pondered and said to Liulang: "I don't know how much Du Mingcheng can listen to your words." If he insists on not listening and wants to attack Li Jiazhuang, then we can't be so soft. β
Rokuro nodded heavily in agreement, "Not bad." Nowadays, Lijiazhuang is far from being as simple as being overbearing and doing evil. Although Yong'an Town is a border town, it has the largest iron ore mine in the Great Zhou. What's more, behind Li Zheng...... It is the black sheep of the imperial court, if you want to uproot the scourge, you have to plan properly, otherwise you ......"
Ma Er sighed: "Otherwise, if you take a hair and move your whole body, all of our efforts will be in vain." β
Liulang took a silent breath and said quietly: "Thinking about what I told Du Mingcheng today, he won't go to his heart. Or you or Dacheng, the idea is close to Du Mingcheng and tells him what we mean and purpose. β
"But in this way, doesn't it reveal our identity?" Ma Er was faintly worried, "If you act like this, you will tell Du Mingcheng that we ......."
"Shh Rokuro's face changed suddenly, and he made a silent gesture to Ma Er.
The two held their breath and were quiet in the room for a moment, and Rokuro walked straight to the door, pushed the door open, and said loudly outside: "Since Your Excellency is here, why don't you show up." Sneaky, not a gentleman's doing. β
There was a sound of a figure sweeping down from the roof, and the broad figure fell steadily in front of Liulang, and smiled calmly, "Brother Yang has good ears, I admire it." I'm just curious why your brothers are talking so mysteriously," he rolled his eyes and landed on Ma Er with deep meaning, "What are you two talking about?" How did I faintly hear Lord Du's name? β
Ma Er snorted lightly: "Isn't it normal for us to talk about such a big thing in the village?" What if you hear a few words? β
"The second brother Ma is so big!" Zhang Kuo smiled and slowly walked towards Ma Er, "I just said two words, why are you so nervous, are you afraid that I will find something?" β
Ma Erqi said: "What do I have to fear from being discovered by you?" Innocent, naΓ―ve! β
He shouted two innocent sentences in a row, and was shaking his head to show disdain, but suddenly saw Zhang Kuo stretching out his hand, and the hand was fierce and vigorous towards his forearm, and the two hands went hand in hand, shaking his two forearms all over the place.
Ma Er didn't stop it, just looked at Zhang Kuo with surprise and disdain, pouted and asked, "Enough touch?" β
Zhang Kuo carefully examined Ma Er's expression and made sure that he was not the man in black who was pierced by Chu Baishui with a silver needle in the next day, so he clasped his fists and saluted, "It's rude in Xia." β
Liulang saw Zhang Kuo's actions in his eyes, but he didn't say anything, but said gently: "Brother Zhang suspects us, there must be a evidence." β
Zhang Kuo smiled, "Please forgive Brother Yang." Before the murderer is caught, everyone is suspicious, and I have no choice but to do so. Forgive me, forgive me. β
The three of them talked for a while, asking about Du Mingcheng's injuries and conditions.
Zhang Kuo said that he was about to go back to Du Mingcheng's place to take care of the guard, but Liulang stopped him, "Lord Du's life and safety are extremely important, why don't you let Ma Er be on duty with you?" His kung fu is very good, and if the assassin comes again, he will stay by Lord Du's side, and he will definitely ensure that Lord Du is unscathed. β
"Really?" Zhang Kuo looked back with a smile, "Second Brother Ma is also good?" Then let's go through a few tricks another day, Brother Yang's side is really not a simple person. β
Liulang clenched his fists, "Brother Zhang will go back first, I will say a few words to Ma Er, and then ask him to go to Chu Baishui to guard with you." β
"Okay." Zhang Kuo nodded happily, turned around immediately, and left with his subordinates who were waiting outside the hospital.
Rokuro stood in front of the window in the room and saw Zhang Kuo suddenly turn around, staring straight at the window where he was standing.
He narrowed his eyes and slowly tightened his grip on the window lattice.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
It was already late when Rokuro returned, and she was huddled under the quilt alone, even though she was so sleepy that she yawned, she still insisted on waiting for Rokuro to come back.
"If you are sleepy like this, you still don't sleep, why do you have to wait for me?" Rokuro heard Hemai's yawning outside the courtyard, and when he entered the house, he opened and closed the door very gently, for fear of scaring Hemai's sleepiness.
"What did you say to Second Brother Ma? So long? Seeing that Rokuro had come back, He Mai was a little more energetic, and he held up his arms and looked at him with tears in his eyes.
Rokuro smiled, "There are so many things happening in the village today, and that's what we're talking about," he took off his coat and put on his underwear, "Come here, go to sleep." β
He Mai obediently shrank into his arms, letting Rokuro's big palm rub against her shoulder.
Smelling the familiar smell of Rokuro, Hemai's sleepiness gradually dispelled.
She waited for Liulang to come back tonight, not only because of her usual habits, but also because of the unexplained action when Liulang appeared when she was in a critical situation today: Why did you knock Du Mingcheng unconscious?
But once she asks Rokuro like this, how will Rokuro answer?
She couldn't figure out why Liulang wanted to knock Du Mingcheng unconscious, and she couldn't figure out why Zhang Kuo suspected that Liulang was a man in black.
But she had a certain thought in her heart, that is, Rokuro was probably indeed related to the man in black.
She seemed to have gone through thousands of doubts in her heart, and finally hesitated to speak, and asked Liulang in a low voice: "When you saved Lord Du, why did you knock him unconscious?" β
She was a little worried that Rokuro would not be able to give an answer or that the answer he gave would be too difficult for her to accept, so she said, "If you say that you have failed, I can believe it." β
