Chapter Eighty-Three: The Bandits



[Chapter 4, Volume 4]

Section 422

Ming Peitang, sending Mu Chunmian and Lai Dayong away, Wei Changying took a sip of tea, thought for a moment, and asked Zhu Xian, who had been serving Fang Cai, to the side: "You go to the study in front and tell your husband what Fang Cai and the two people said." ”

Zhu Xian bowed and said, "Yes." Just as she was about to retreat, Wei Changying stopped her again: "You didn't know about Mo Binwei's affairs before, so listen to me and tell you a rough idea." lest the husband ask for a while, and he doesn't know what to do. ”

In the study in the front yard, Shen Zangfeng was gossiping with the newly hired staff member Shangguan Eleven, and when he heard that Zhu Xian was coming, Shangguan Eleven, who was afraid of life, was busy and was about to leave.

Shen Zangfeng wanted to keep it: "Brother Shangguan, don't see outside, the daughter who came here is my wife's maid, although I am not sensitive, but I rely on my father's help to marry a good wife." Knowing that you and I are here, if there is nothing important, the people in the back hall will definitely not be easily disturbed. Please also ask Brother Shangguan to sit down for a while, and wait for me to summon her in and ask a few questions. ”

Shangguan Eleven is full of classics, good at strategy, and is also an eight-foot-long man, but his appearance is feminine and beautiful like a virgin, and his temperament is more afraid of life than many real virgins. was coaxed left and right by Shen Zangfeng for a long time before he reluctantly agreed, and before Zhu Xian came in, he deliberately sat in the corner again......

Seeing this staff member so stage frightened, Shen Zangfeng was also a little crying and laughing. It's just that no one is perfect, although Shangguan Eleven is not as generous as ordinary men, and even a handmaid is timid to meet him, but this talent is real. A little weird, Shen Zangfeng can tolerate it.

He waited for Shangguan Eleven to hide before he asked Shen Di to summon someone to enter the door.

Zhu Xian entered, saluted and asked Anbi, without waiting for Shen Zangfeng to ask, he talked about his future intentions. She is a servant of the Wei family, and she was prepared by her parents to serve the pearl of the Wei family when she was a child, and she has to be taught since she was a child. When he arrived at Wei Changying's side, he was trained by the He family, and his words were well organized, and he listened to it very comfortably with a crisp voice.

At the end, Zhu Xian said respectfully: "Originally, the young lady heard that the young lady had invited Mr. Shangguan to talk in the study, so she didn't want to disturb. It's just that thinking about what the Lord of the Wooden Castle and the Gang Master Lai said is a little important, so he sent his servant over to tell the son. ”

Before her words fell, before Shen Zangfeng could answer, a voice suddenly came from the corner: "This matter is urgent." ”

When Zhu Xian came in, he didn't see Shangguan Shiyi, and he was a little puzzled. Only Dao Shangguan Eleven had already been sent away by Shen Zangfeng...... But he didn't want this voice to sound behind him now, and he couldn't help but be startled.

Seeing that the male owner in front of him almost turned grim at the same time, he said briefly: "This matter should be like this." Then he simply sent her back to the back hall to restore her life.

When Zhu Xian left, Shangguan Shiyi, whose face was flushed at the same time as he spoke casually and spoke out, walked back to his original seat from the corner in a little embarrassed, and said embarrassedly: "Third son, the right talent...... cough, it's just in Xia Menglang. ”

"Why did Brother Shangguan say this? Even if Brother Shangguan didn't say anything, now I have to ask Brother Shangguan for advice. Shen Zangfeng sighed.

Shangguan Eleven Xuefu Wuche is extremely afraid of life, if it weren't for Tulu's raid on Diecui Pass before, his Sang Zi would be in danger and had to stand up to protect his family, I'm afraid that no one knows his talent so far. It is not so much that Shen Zangfeng spent a lot of effort to invite him out of the mountain, but that he spent these days getting acquainted with him, so that he would not want to hide when he saw him.

But although he successfully brought Shangguan 11 to Xiliang City, Jiangnan's easy-to-change nature is difficult to change, and it is still necessary to be cautious and coaxed to talk to this person......

Shen Zangfeng was relieved and appeased for a while, and Shangguan Shiyi settled down and got down to business: "A few days ago, the third prince said that Lai Dayong and his people were like this talent. But now that Mrs. Zun has sent her maid to tell her in detail, it doesn't seem right? ”

"What Brother Shangguan said is extremely true." A faint look flashed between Shen Zangfeng's eyebrows, and he said, "The Mengshan Gang is just a group of rabble, originally recommended by Jia to be its gang leader Lai Dayong started from scratch and thought it was a talent. Because of the Di people, and the days when I arrived in Xiliang were still shallow, I didn't ask in detail......"

Shangguan Shiyi said: "Lai Dayong is a gang leader, even if he is slightly injured, he shouldn't be able to look down on a woman." But now he ran to Xiliang to ask for help from his virtuous brother, thinking that the strangeness in this should have nothing to do with him, but his sister named Qin Niang was a little abnormal. ”

Even if Lai Dayong wants to be an insider, he will not leave a Mengshan Gang who can't stand his sister and go to Mo Jiajun alone to take revenge.

"Although the Mengshan Gang is a rabble, there are thousands of them. That Lai Qinniang can be ranked as the second leader, only under his brother Lai Dayong, it is impossible to rely on his brother's shadow. You must know that the bandit has a fierce temperament, rude and rude, if this Lai Qinniang's own ability is general, the gang will not buy this account! Shangguan Eleven saw Shen Zangfeng's head, so he continued, "As a man, he is below the female stream, and a well-read person can't bear it, let alone a bandit in the mountains? It can be seen that this Lai Qinniang can occupy the position of the second master, and there must be something outstanding. In my opinion, I am afraid that Lai Qinniang even hid her brother from the past, which caused this Lai Dayong to come to Xiliang for help! ”

Shen Zangfeng nodded and said, "What Brother Shangguan said is extremely true, but I am curious about this Lai Qinniang...... What is the intention? ”

"If others know that this Lai Qinniang is going to the Mo family army alone to avenge her brother under the guise of having other intentions, it is indeed difficult to speculate. After all, Mo Binwei has not heard of this person before, even if Lai Dayong said that he has a valve behind his back, and it is difficult to confirm that there are six valves in the sea. Shangguan Eleven knew that Shen Zangfeng might not really have a clue, but he was just taking this opportunity to weigh his newly recruited staff, so he said slowly, "But the third prince is not, Mrs. Zun knows this Mo Binwei's heel by coincidence." His person is from Fengzhou, and he was almost recruited by the fifth son of the Wei family, but because of the change, he was deceived by the sixth master of the Wei family, Wei Xinyong, and went to ......"

Shangguan Shiyi glanced at Shen Zangfeng, who was listening carefully, and hesitated, "There is a speculation, I don't know if I should say it?" ”

"Brother Shangguan, but please speak up!" Shen Zangfeng raised his hand to invite.

"According to the maid of Fang Cai, Wei Xinyong seems to have a deep hatred with the Marquis of Jingcheng." Shangguan Shiyi frowned and said, "Since he was young, he corresponded with Changshan Gong and simply passed to Ruiyu Hall last year, which shows his centrifugation of Zhibentang!" ”

Shen Zangfeng nodded and said: "That's true, according to my guess, the deaths of his biological father and sister are very strange, although there is no rumor. However, it seems to be related to Jingchenghou...... Now his brother-in-law is also serving in Fengzhou and is protected by Changshan Gong. ”

Shangguan Eleven said: "The Marquis of Jingcheng is not able to retaliate against the six masters of the Wei family. Even though he has now succeeded to Ruiyu Hall, Wei Zhenghong of Ruiyu Hall has begun to recover with the help of Ji Divine Doctor. How could Chang Shangong and Mrs. Song let their eldest son not support him, but instead support Wei Xinyong? ”

"Yes, especially Wei Xinyong's talent is outstanding, when Wei Zhenghong was sick, Mrs. Song probably needed him to suppress her second son, Wei Shengyi. However, now that Wei Zhenghong has recovered, Rui Yutang naturally doesn't need Wei Xinyong much. Shen Zangfeng said, "What does Brother Shangguan mean is that Mo Binwei fought from Nanmeng Mountain to Beimeng Mountain to deal with Jingcheng Hou?" ”

Shangguan Shiyi nodded and said, "Even if it is Wei Zhenghong, it may not be easy to deal with Jingcheng Hou. Although the Marquis of Jingcheng is now a minister, the title is still there, and the influence is still there. The so-called hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff, and so is Jingchenghou. Wei Xinyong wants to seek revenge on him, how easy is it to talk about? Didn't Lai Dayong say that this Mo Binwei recruited him several times, hinting that there was a valve reading behind him? In my second thought, maybe this valve reading is Webster. However, Wei Xinyong will definitely not hand over the Mo family army to the Wei family, and must have used the Mo family army as a support to negotiate with the Wei family...... After all, if there is chaos today, Wei's also hopes to have a reliable and reliable private army. ”

"Fengzhou Wei has private soldiers, but the so-called thousands of troops are easy to obtain, a general is difficult to find, Wei is prosperous in the end, although the clan can memorize the military book upside down like a stream, when it comes to using soldiers like a god, but half of this talent has never been produced." Shen Zangfeng sighed, "And Mo Binwei's talent in transporting troops in Fengzhou's victory has been known to Changshan Gong, this time he swept away the bandits from Nanmeng Mountain, all the way to Beimeng Mountain, and never lost a single defeat, even the Mengshan Gang, the largest gang in Mengshan, but he still controls his reputation and does not spread it early, which proves his value even more!" It's just that I can't figure it out, Chang Shan Gong is the most talented, and if Wei Xinyong has been hiding Mo Binwei and not letting Chang Shan know his true value, it's okay. Since it is revealed, why is he not afraid that Chang Shangong will bypass him and directly envelop Mo Binwei? Even if Mo Binwei and Rui Yutang have a former grudge against Song Han's father and son, and when they escaped from Fengzhou, they killed the guards sent by the Wei family to guard him, but compared to his talent, I think Chang Shangong will definitely not mind, but will compensate for it. ”

What Wei Huan can give to Mo Binwei, how can it be compared to what Wei Xinyong can give? Even children know this truth.

Shangguan Shiyi thought for a while and said, "I haven't seen Wei Xinyong and Mo Binwei before, but this is not good." But Wei Xinyong must have some means to make Mo Binwei die for him. Even if Chang Shangong bypassed him and went directly to recruit Mo Binwei, he would not succeed! He pondered for a moment and said, "Wei Xinyong was born and raised in the imperial capital, and he suddenly went to Chaoyun County in Qingzhou three years ago to take up a post. And it was on the way to work that he collected the remnants of Fengqi Mountain and took away Mo Binwei. ”

But according to Fang Cai's words, Mo Binwei was discovered because of the great victory in Fengzhou. Before this, no one knew that there was such a natural general among the officials in the north of Fengzhou Prefecture. Shangguan Shiyi said thoughtfully, "So Wei Xinyong chose to go to Chaoyun County at that time, it didn't seem like he was going on this trip under the pretense of Mo Binwei, but when he went to the vicinity of Fengzhou, he happened to know about it." But...... The truth of Fengzhou's victory has not been leaked so far, why did Wei Xinyong know it at that time? In the next recollection, the imperial capital to this Chaoyun County, although it is also possible to go from Fengzhou. But in fact, if you don't go to Fengzhou, there are two other roads that are closer. Wei Xinyong's departure from Fengzhou must have its purpose. ”

I'm afraid that even Wei Changying can't answer this question - three years ago, when she went to the appointment on behalf of her brother and met Wei Xinyong in the valley outside the city, although she seemed to have the upper hand, she was actually extremely nervous in her heart, and she didn't realize this question at all: Mo Binwei is the real hero of Fengzhou's victory, and there are only so many people in Ruiyu Hall who know, how can Wei Xinyong not only know, but also know everything about the place where Mo Binwei was under house arrest?

Wei Changying didn't know that the maid Zhu Xian, who was sent by her to pass the word, said more simply and concisely, and Shen Zangfeng couldn't answer. He frowned for a moment, shook his head and said, "Mo Binwei has long been Wei Xinyong's person, there is no need to arrange for him to go to the north of Fengzhou Prefecture." This sweep of Mengshan is enough to prove his ability. A truly talented person is one who has no fame or deeds in the past, and it is not difficult to find an opportunity to prove it. ”

Shangguan Eleven nodded: "What the third prince said is that Zai Xia also thinks so." Therefore, it is speculated that Wei Xinyong went to Chaoyun County back then, and he passed through Fengzhou, in addition to meeting Changshan Gong, I am afraid that it was for the remnants of those Fengqishan bandits. ”

The bandits in Fengqi Mountain were actually specially made by Wei Huan and his nephew, the late Wei Zhengya, the prince of Jingping, to compete for the Wei family's secret guard "Biwu". Relying on this group of bandits, Wei Huan has repeatedly eliminated the people who are loyal to Wei Zhengya in "Biwu".

Especially three years ago, Wei Huan ordered this group of bandits to ransack the convoy sent back to Fengzhou from the imperial capital by Wei Shengyi, the second son of the concubine, and took this opportunity to be furious, not only ordered the chief Shi Song Han to lead the soldiers and Zhou Yong to suppress the bandits, but also used the murder of the son in the convoy and the robbery of the Fengzhou Wei family's convoy outside Fengzhou City, so that the Wei family was disgraced, forcing Wei Zhengya to promise to send a large number of "Biwu" to assist in suppressing the bandits.

The result can be imagined, Wei Huan was happy to almost sweep away Wei Zhengya's henchmen......

This kind of scandal of family infighting, even if Wei Changying knew about it, he would never tell Shen Zangfeng.

But Shen Zangfeng's infighting in the Wei family is not all known from his wife, and the Shen family will still care about the movements of his in-laws. Besides, the six valves in the sea, after years of wealth and wealth, who hasn't had a pickled thing? This kind of infighting in the Wei family is everywhere, and it is not unheard of in all families.

Maybe I didn't expect it in advance, but afterwards, Wei Huan calmly mastered "Biwu", and then tearfully accused Rong Ren of how ruthless, cruel and cold-blooded murdered his nephew...... Everyone will understand.

…… Speaking of Wei Huan's various tricks here, he was also analyzed and taught by Shen Xuan in private.

It's just that Shen Zangfeng himself knows and knows, but it is inconvenient to tell Shangguan Shiyi, who was recruited, that the grandfather of his wife set up a conspiracy to kill his nephew in order to snatch people and power from his nephew...... No matter how you say it, you have to be ashamed of the elderly.

However, Shangguan Shiyi's reaction was not slow - Wei Xinyong walked from Fengzhou, and it was nothing to visit Xia Wei Huan on the way, and it was strange to take a group of remnants with him when he left.

Nowadays, there are many places in the world that are not peaceful, if Wei Xinyong just wants to be a bandit, except for Gyeonggi, where is there none?

The intact bandits, Wei Xinyong may not be able to catch them. How to say that his identity as a son of a lord is also very frightened for many commoners and bandits from lowly backgrounds. And there are many people who are very eager to be recruited......

He took a detour to Fengzhou to receive a group of bandits who were crippled by the Wei family...... Especially since he is also a child of the Wei family!

These bandits aren't weird!
