Chapter Seventy-Nine: A Long-Lost Name
[Chapter 4, Volume 4]
Section 418
The day after tomorrow, Mu Chunmian really took Lai Dayong to Mingpeitang to ask for a meeting.
Wei Changying deliberately took the shelf and hung them for a long time before allowing them in.
When the two of them entered the door, Wei Changying's eyes swept away, and when he saw Mu Chunmian, he seemed to have no time to go to Ji Yuan to freshen up, so he directly arrested Lai Dayong. Look at Lai Dayong again - this is the first time Wei Changying has seen this famous smuggler of salt, looking through the gap in the screen, this person is the same as rumored, born burly and strong, with dark skin, and a scar on his face that is more than two inches long and half an inch wide, crawling on his cheekbones like a centipede, and it is terrifying to look at.
This is a look that no one believes in saying that he is not a bandit, and he is dressed as a businessman who pays attention to harmony and makes money, how awkward it is.
It's just that although this Lai Dayong looks like he is fierce, he is smiling all over his face at the moment, looking flattering...... What made Wei Changying pay attention was that his flattery didn't seem to be coming at him, but as if he was going to Mu Chunmian.
Thinking of Cao Ya's name for Lai Dayong, Wei Changying felt very interesting: this Lai Dayong is about thirty years old, and Ji Gu's age is ......
She didn't speak, and let Shoumu Chunmian and Lai Dayong salute respectfully, but they didn't hear the sound of shouting, so they stood down so embarrassed.
One tea, two teas...... Wei Changying drank the third tea slowly and methodically, and the snacks at hand had been changed several times, and Mu Chunmian and Lai Dayong, who had been maintaining a saluting posture, were a little sweaty on their foreheads.
Just peeking up, but after seeing the thin silk screen specially set up because of Lai Dayong, the foreign man, the noble lady who knew the grace of the skirt from the silhouette seemed to lower her head, looked at the civet cat lying on her skirt, and asked with a low smile: "Why did it come here?" Shi Yu is not optimistic about it? ”
A little maid in pink said cautiously: "Back to the young lady's words, the maid has always carried a little tweed." It's just that Xiaohua loves to run around...... The maid looked back at it crawling in the flowers, and wanted to carry it away, but was almost scratched by it! ”
"Could it be that I gave it a piece of pickled fish last time and told it to remember that bite?" Wei Changying smiled, and stretched out his hand to the civet cat, and the cat jumped on her knee with dexterity and agility, stretched out its head and rubbed it in her palm, and let out a low cry.
"Xiaohua just likes the young lady......"
The master and servant talked and laughed, as if there were no two people in the hall, Mu Chunmian and Lai Dayong.
Seeing this, Mu Chunmian bit his lip, but he still held back.
But Lai Dayong has been a bandit for a long time, with a violent temper, and he has endured it for a long time, but at this moment, he couldn't hold it back, suddenly straightened up, and said loudly: "Lao Tzu...... When I met Shen Sangongzi a few days ago the next day, I was reckless, and I came here today to make amends to the young lady! If the young lady is angry, she will kill in the next office, and there is no other word! What does it mean that the young lady is hanging like this? ”
This attack was abrupt, because Wei Changying knew that Shen Zangfeng wanted the Mengshan Gang, and he didn't want to make things too stiff, so he took this opportunity to hand over the civet cat named Xiaohua to Shi Yu and take it out, and said slowly: "Lai Gang Leader said this strangely, I am a woman from a Taoist family, and it is the first time I have seen the gang leader today, but what kind of grievances do I have with the gang leader, and I need to be angry with the gang leader?" ”
"I recommended the sister in the next ......" Lai Dayong was halfway through his words, from the gap in the screen, Wei Changying clearly saw Mu Chunmian turn his head, glared at him viciously, this glance suddenly silenced the bandit, muttered a few words, and then said, "In short, it is wrong in the next." ”
Wei Changying said: "Even if the Lai gang leader makes a mistake, what does it have to do with me? ”
“…… Under offended the young lady. ”
"I've never met the helper, how did the helper offend me?"
After pushing back and forth on this topic for a long time, Lai Dayong was so depressed that he almost vomited blood, and secretly said that he was tired of talking to these pampered ladies and noblewomen. He simply closed his eyes and said, "The thing I mentioned a few days ago was done by the next person, and it has nothing to do with the righteous sister below. Young lady ......"
"Sister-in-law? Who is Sister Ling? Wei Changying interrupted him, "It can't be the Lord of the Wooden Castle, right?" ”
I don't want Lai Dayong to nod seriously: "My parents have passed away in the next life, and I was rescued by my father-in-law in the mountains, so I formed a father-son relationship." The righteous sister who is under the spring sleep. ”
Behind the screen, Wei Changying frowned slightly, thinking that Shen Zangfeng didn't ask carefully the day before yesterday, or didn't ask or didn't tell himself if he asked? This Lai Dayong had been asking Ji Gu to pass on the message before, only that the Mengshan Gang had a lot of relationship with Cao Jiabao, but now it seems that he has a lot of relationship with Ji Gu.
Originally, Ji Gu was an outsider, but not only did he gain a foothold in Caojiabao, but he even occupied the magpie's nest and let his daughter and granddaughter occupy the position of the castle lord and the young castle lord. Both Shen Zangfeng and Wei Changying guessed that he had excellent skills and a wonderful medical skill, and now they knew that Ji Gu's luck was not bad...... rescued someone in the mountains, and actually saved the leader of the first gang in Mengshan.
With such a strong reinforcement, why can't you control Caojiabao, which is just inhabited by displaced people?
Thinking of this, Wei Changying's heart moved, and he said, "It turns out that you are still the righteous son of Uncle Ji?" What a surprise. ”
Lai Dayong waited with Mu Chunmian for a while, but he didn't see her say anything, he felt a little difficult to ride a tiger, so Mu Chunmian came out to explain: "Young lady, a few days ago, my brother was excited, so he proposed to Shen Sangongzi about taking a concubine, but in fact, there was another reason, and I don't dare to hide this matter from the young lady......"
Wei Changying slowly took a sip of tea, and then said lightly: "Why? It's just that no matter what the reason, it's all business, but what does it have to do with me, a woman in the backyard? You should go and tell my husband these words, and if you say these things to me, why is it like playing the piano to the cow? ”
Mu Chunmian smiled and said, "Young lady, you don't know, this matter is half public and half private...... The little woman is stupid and doesn't know what to say. In short, this person who suddenly wrote a letter to his brother, although his own name is unknown, but there seems to be a master behind the scenes. It's just that my brother didn't want to go to them, so I don't know who the person behind the curtain is. However, according to my father's speculation, it is also one of the six valves in China...... Especially this person who recruited his brother used his troops exquisitely, and his brother was defeated by him several times, but he had to be merciful to the other party's subordinates again and again, and he was forced to have no choice......"
Wei Changying was stunned for a moment, and thought about it: "Who is this person you are talking about?" Could it be that they are also gangsters in Mengshan? She was curious...... Didn't you hear that the Mengshan Gang was already the number one gang in Mengshan? How could it be defeated by someone several times? Moreover, the valve reads ...... Could it be that any of the six valves coveted the Mengshan Gang? What is this for......?
Just as she was thinking about it, she heard Mu Chunmian say: "That person's name is Mo Binwei......"
"Mo Binwei!" Not only Wei Changying exhaled in a low voice, but even Zhu Xian and Zhu Xuan were stunned at each other, and said in unison: "How could it be him?" ”
Although Zhu Xian and Zhu Xuan didn't know that the real hero of Fengzhou's victory was actually Mo Binwei, they also knew that this person was a fugitive from Fengzhou, and they had also alarmed Wei Huan - the two maids thought in their hearts: Did that person actually flee into Mengshan as a bandit? It's strange that our Wei family hasn't found him several times.
Wei Changying knew that Mo Binwei was originally a talent favored by Mrs. Song for her brother Wei Changfeng, but the timing was really unfortunate at that time, Jingcheng Hou took the first step to send the Fengzhou victory to the heavens, please be rewarded with the holy decree, and cast Song Han, Song Duan's father and son are the fait accompli, and Ruiyutang was declining at that time, and Wei Huan did not think that Mo Binwei was worthy of him to give up his name...... Then there was an assassination of the two sisters and brothers outside Fengzhou City, so that Wei Xinyong, who happened to go to Chaoyun County and deliberately passed through Fengzhou to meet with Wei Huan for a detailed discussion, seized the opportunity, and forced Wei Changying to go to the valley to meet on behalf of his brother, but he turned the tiger away from the mountain, taking advantage of the fact that the Wei family was looking for Wei Changying all over the world and relaxing Mo Binwei's house arrest, and sent his henchmen to deceive Mo Binwei away......
Wei Changying has always felt very sorry for this matter - after all, in the victory of Fengzhou, Mo Binwei's talent is really worth holding.
And Wei's still lacks such talents.
Especially after listening to Shen Zangfeng's speculation that the world would be in chaos, Wei Chang Yingshen was saddened by the loss of his younger brother - although the Wei family had private soldiers and secret guards, there was no capable enough general to sit in charge. The so-called thousands of troops are easy to get, and one general is hard to find...... Wei Changying is really worried about her mother's family.
It's just that this is not the time to worry, she will return her mind to business-
After Mo Binwei was taken away by Wei Xinyong, there was no news. It wasn't until last year that Wei Xinyong was passed from Zhibentang to Ruiyu Hall, and after going to the imperial capital, he met with Wei Changying, when the uncle and nephew were busy intriguing, and Wei Changying didn't bother to ask Mo Binwei.
But I didn't want to, I heard him from Mu Chunmian!
Wei Changying felt a little uncomfortable, and asked in a deep voice, "How is this person now?" Tell me more! ”
Although her exclamation was low, and Zhu Xian and Zhu Xuan's stunned voices were not loud, but now there was silence in this hall, and Mu Chunmian and Lai Dayong could hear it clearly, and they were quite surprised that Mo Binwei, who had not yet spread his fame, was actually a person known to a noble lady like Wei Changying. After settling down, Mu Chunmian said: "This person is from the side of Nanmeng Mountain, and he has not set up a name, but because of the cautious appearance of the army under his rule, we call them the Mo family army in private." He went all the way north along the Mengshan Trail, and the bandits in it were all subdued. Don't hide it from the young lady, originally the Mengshan Gang was known as the No. 1 gang in Mengshan, but now this Mo family army is ...... Previously, the little woman said that this Mo Binwei was not famous, but it was only temporary. It won't be long before this person's reputation will be known to the world! ”
Mu Chunmian smiled bitterly and said, "If it weren't for this, my brother would be burdened with a serious case, and my father wouldn't dare to rashly ask him to show ......up."
Co-authored the Mengshan Gang to take the initiative to defect to Shen Zangfeng, or was it because he was forced by Mo Binwei?
Wei Changying frowned, thinking that her husband hadn't said it in such detail when he said that these people would make amends...... But after thinking about it, Wei Changying remembered again that this Lai Dayong came to the door for the first time and proposed to take Mu Chunmian Xu and Shen Zangfeng as concubines, but Shen Zangfeng refused, and sent them away.
Later, Lai Dayong waited for two days and did not see Shen Zangfeng change his mind, so he had to give in. But this time Shen Zangfeng didn't see him - he wanted to come here and patronize and recommend his sister as a concubine, but he forgot to get down to business. He thought that he could say that he would be able to see him again, but Shen Zangfeng was annoyed that when he asked for a meeting for the first time, he kept saying that he wanted to defect, and when he met, he added more conditions to stuff people in his backyard, so he simply didn't see him for the second time, and only sent Shen Youjia and Shen Dong to preside over the Zhao'an matter.
And the reason why the two brothers and sisters are talking so much at this moment is probably to implicitly show that they still have a lot of secrets to tell......
However, just for Mo Binwei, Wei Changying also put aside the matter of taking the shelf for the time being - this Mo Binwei is a general himself, and it has a lot to do with Wei Xinyong!
According to Wei Changying's understanding of Wei Xinyong, Mu Chunmian's so-called person behind Mo Binwei is eight times out of ten. Nine, it is Wei Xinyong!
I don't know if it was put forward by Wei Xinyong outside Fengzhou City back then, even if my grandmother mentioned it, it took a few years to react one after another, so I stayed and got used to it. As long as everything is stained with Wei Xinyong, Wei Changying almost instinctively mentioned caution!
Although her literary talent is so-so, she still has a general understanding of the geography of the world under the influence of the Wei family's literary style for hundreds of years. She knew that Mengshan was divided into north and south Mengshan by the Great Qinguan located within the boundary of Qinzhou Prefecture. It is said that it is north and south, but in fact, the direction of the main vein of the whole Mengshan Mountain is oblique, from southeast to northwest - the North Mengshan in the northwest section, across the north of Qinzhou, Lanzhou, Guanzhou and then into Xiliang.
The remaining vein to Xiliang is the section of Shuangcui Mountain where Diecui Mountain is located.
And Nanmeng Mountain, from the south of Qinzhou Prefecture to the southeast all the way through, through Yunzhou, Huzhou, Qingzhou, until Lingnan.
And Chaoyun County is in Qingzhou.
Wei Changying vaguely remembered that Chaoyun County, the state capital to which it belonged, was not far from Mengshan.
Mu Chunmian said that Mo Binwei swept Mengshan from south to north - what does Wei Xinyong want to do?!
Although the Mengshan Gang is known as the largest gang in Mengshan, its sphere of influence is only in Guanzhou. Guanzhou is already a neighboring state in Xiliang!
Wei Changying's mind turned and said: "This Mo Binwei, I know, he is a general. Since you have speculated, there must be a valve reading behind him, but why don't you surrender to him nearby, but instead rush to Xiliang? ”
Before Mu Chunmian could answer, Lai Dayong gritted his teeth and said, "It's just because that guy is not a good person!" Compared to him and the one behind him, Zai Xia believes in the Shen family more! ”
