147 Do not let her brothers in the army be persecuted by her
The official in the post house bowed down and followed Xiao Mu's side, leading people to the hall, and handed a letter with both hands: "...... This letter was left here early two days ago, and the man claimed to be a friend of Hou Ye, saying that Hou Ye would definitely pass through here, so he left this letter to Hou Ye. β
Xiao Mu stopped slightly, and the close entourage holding the umbrella for him also stopped.
Heng Yu beside him also looked at the letter.
Xiao Mu took it, didn't open it in a hurry, and only asked the post officer: "What does the messenger look like?" Do you have a name? β
"The name has never been left, but it is said that the Hou Ye will know who he is when he reads the letter."
The post officer recalled: "Look at the fact that he is about forty years old, with a medium and slightly chubby body, what does he look like...... has no features, and wears a navy blue robe, which looks rich and noble. β
After speaking, he said cautiously: "Because he claims to be a friend of Lord Hou, the villain does not dare to slack off...... I don't know if Master Hou can recognize this person? β
"Hmm." Xiao Mu said noncommittally: "Ben Hou knows, retreat." β
The post official didn't say anything more, responded respectfully, sent it off on the spot, and waited for Xiao Mu to go farther before daring to leave.
This is the most powerful envoy in the Northland, and it is not usually something that he can see in his status at all, so he naturally has to be treated with 100,000 spirits.
But this envoy -
"It's really young...... when the post officer turned around, the little official on the side sighed: "Young and promising, God will send talents." β
"Yes, with such achievements at this age, wouldn't he be even more successful in the future?" The little official echoed.
"Nonsense, how big can it be?" The post officer lowered his voice and reprimanded, and sighed again: "If you can hold on to the present, then it is good luck...... Xiao Jie makes good luck, and we can have good luck in the north. β
This time he went to Beijing, let him be a little post officer, and he could also smell the breath of unpeace.
He only hoped that Xiao Jie's "luck" would be better.
"Does Master Hou recognize the person described by the post officer?" After entering the house, Heng Yu asked.
The news of Xiao Mu's entry into Beijing has already been passed down layer by layer, and the city post officials along the way have made preparations in advance, and what is here for Xiao Mu to stay is a separate three-story pavilion.
Xiao Mu shook his head: "It should just be the person who transmits the message from it." β
As he spoke, he sat down in a chair, Wang Jingyong closed the door from the outside, led people to guard the outside, and motioned to his subordinates to carefully inspect the inside and outside of the pavilion.
On this trip, there are not many people on the surface, but there are more than 300 people, but all of them are elite henchmen, who are chauffeurs, and they are not ordinary people.
Before setting off this time, Yan Junshi didn't explain too much, and the thousands of words were only gathered into one sentence - there were only ants passing by along the way, and they had to be picked up and searched carefully inside and out, and they could only be released after making sure that there was nothing unusual.
It is also thanks to the fact that there are no insects and ants in this season, otherwise according to Vice General Wang's temperament, I am afraid that at this time, I am afraid that someone has already ordered people to boil water and prepare to water the ant nest.
Inside the house, Xiao Mu had already opened the letter.
He glanced at it, put it on the small table between the two, and pushed it towards Hengyu.
It's short, but it's just two linesβ
Hou Ye's sincerity and loyalty are admirable.
I will go to Beijing first and wait for the show.
Heng Yu looked at it, was silent for a moment, and then asked, "Does Master Hou recognize this trace?" β
"His handwriting was taught by me-" Xiao Mu said: "This is obviously just ghostwriting." β
Although the handwriting was denied, it was also determined who the messenger was.
Heng Yu pondered: "He must have been on his way to the capital at this time...... He entered Beijing this time, not necessarily as simple as watching a play, right? β
On the occasion of the sage's Qianqiu Festival to summon Xiao Mu into Beijing, if it is said that there is no calculation, it is impossible.
Xiao Mu picked up the letterhead: "Since he sent a letter here, it can be seen that the spirit of cooperation is not gone, and he also believes that my trip to Beijing will not have a good resultββ"
There is a so-called "waiting for a good show".
Watching him throw the letter paper into the charcoal basin at his feet, Heng Yu said: "Besides, for him, it is easy to fish in troubled water...... After entering Beijing, Hou Ye should also meet with him as soon as possible, and decide whether to show his identity according to the situation. β
Whether you can persuade or not can be persuaded is another matter, but the relationship situation will be relatively clear, no matter what the other party ultimately decides, at least you know yourself and the other side, so as not to be injured by mistake - and unilateral concealment often means that regret is difficult to remedy when it occurs.
Understanding her intentions, Xiao Mu looked at the burning letter and nodded.
Hengyu raised his hand and poured two cups of hot tea, and the heat was rising.
The window behind the two was ajar, and the raindrops were as sharp as a line, and the rain and fog were filled with the cold of early spring.
The sky grew dark until midnight, when the rain stopped, and the dark clouds over the night sky dispersed like a light veil in the wind, allowing a few scattered stars to appear.
The next day, the sky cleared, and in the early morning, the horses' hooves continued to rush forward on the slightly wet bluestone road.
The journey is always boring, the carriage is bumpy all the way, and it is inevitable that the time is difficult to endure without doing anything.
So on the second day, Heng Yu and Gu Tingnan sat in Mrs. Xiao's carriage, and several people played cards.
Vice General Wang, who was ordered to follow the carriage, sat on horseback, and when he heard the sound of shuffling cards coming from the carriage, he couldn't help twitching out of the corner of his eyes - it was not a leaf card, but a pai gow!
I'm afraid that the lady will also get into a bad habit now!
No, where did Pai Gow come from?
It's understandable that the female dependents take the leaf cards to relieve boredom, but who will carry a deck of pai gow with them when they go far away?
"I'm really sorry, I'm the biggest again!"
Gu Niangzi's voice came from the car, and Wang Jingyong thought of the burden she was carrying before leaving the city-
"It's time for me to sit in the bank, it's time for me to sit in the bank!"
"Where's the dice?"
"Tianjiu, kill through!"
Adjutant General Wang: "......"
This way is in a hurry, a little drunk and fascinated!
Finally staying up to the time to rest, Deputy General Wang Le Ma said to the rear: "Rest halfway, rest in place for two quarters of an hour, and drink water to feed the horses!" β
"Yes!"
Everyone responded, and the carriage and horses slowly stopped.
Wang Jingyong also turned over and dismounted, walked to Xiao Mu's carriage, and said: "General, there have been scouts all the way back, and there is no difference for a hundred miles ahead. β
The person in the car said "um", and there was a faint sound of flipping through the official documents, and the voice asked casually: "Today is faster than yesterday, are they unwell mother?" β
"Madame, they are very good, and they pushed Pai Gow all the way."
There was apparently silence in the car, and after a momentβ
"Who loses and who wins?"
Wang Jingyong: "? β
Is the general still curious about this?
He racked his brains and thought about it, and said, "Listening to the voice, it should be that Gu Niangzi who wins the most." β
"She's also losing moneyβ"
Who?
When Wang Jingyong was about to react, he only heard the voice and said: "I know, go get busy - lose and report again." β
Wang Jingyong: "......? β
"Yes."
He bowed, walked away with a complicated face, and went to feed his horse.
In the afterglow, he saw a maple-red figure walking out of Madame Xiao's carriage.
Wang Jingyong patted the forage crumbs on his hands and looked over.
"General Wang!" Gu Tingnan saw him, walked towards him with a smile, and handed over a bunch of dried fruits such as peanuts and longan in the cloak in front of him: "Do you eat peanuts?" I've won it! β
Wang Jingyong looked at her smiling face vigilantly, and refused expressionlessly: "No." β
Gu Tingnan had already gotten used to his appearance, and turned to greet the others: "The generals have worked the road, do you eat fruits and peanuts?" β
She had always been good at sociability, and soon divided the large handfuls of fruit, talked and laughed with a group of soldiers, and after a while returned to her carriage.
Vice General Wang, who had been watching from the sidelines not far away, looked at the soldier who came forward to hand him peanuts, and frowned: "You dare to eat anything from unknown sources?" What you teach on weekdays is remembered in the dog's belly? β
The little soldier shrunk his neck and swallowed the longan in his mouth: "Isn......'t this something in Madame's carriage?"
Wang Jingyong choked.
Also...... Also?
He only said: "But this Gu Niangzi, how much do you know about her?" β
Xiao Bing was stunned when he heard this: "Isn't Shopkeeper Gu a friend of Master Ji and Vice General Wang?" β
βοΌβ Wang Jingyong immediately cleared up the relationship: "I'm not familiar with her!" β
Xiao Bing was also confused: "But along the way, I always see Gu Niangzi talking to you......"
Wang Jingyong's face was solemn: "She took the initiative to do it, and I didn't respond!" β
"Oh, oh......" The soldier nodded with a complicated look in his eyes.
How did Vice General Wang react in this way, and is this something worthy of "facing the enemy"?
I only heard Wang Jingyong and Zhengse reminded: "You should also be careful of this person, don't get too close to him, so as not to be affected by him-"
At this point, Vice General Wang's voice suddenly stopped.
"Suffered...... What? The creep asked tentatively.
Of course, he was poisoned!
The one who will not be responsible at all if the father leaves the son!
Vice General Wang had a deep shadow of the conversation he heard on the night of the Shangyuan Festival, especially this Gu Niangzi, who even said that she would not get married, and she was afraid that the man would covet her property - treating the man was intended to just play around outside, and he didn't plan to take it home at all!
He couldn't let his brothers in his army suffer such persecution!
"All in all, stay away from her!" Vice Admiral Wang couldn't say those words, and in the end he could only say them in a commanding tone.
"Genus, subordinates know ......"
He really knows!
"I know......" After leaving Wang Jingyong's sight, Xiao Bing whispered to his companions but couldn't hide his shock: "Do you know, it turns out that General Wang likes that Gu Niangzi!" β
"What?"
"Really?"
"Really! Just now I took Gu Niangzi's fruit, and General Wang reprimanded me and told me to stay away from Gu Niangzi in the future! β
"I see! I said how Vice General Wang always peeked at Gu Niangzi! β
One spread ten, ten spread hundred, and the matter soon spread secretly.
In the next few days, Vice General Wang always felt that his subordinates were looking at him strangely, and he didn't know what kind of medicine he had taken wrong.
And when it comes to medicine -
"What kind of medicine is this?"
This night, when staying at the post house, Wang Jingyong, who was patrolling the backyard, saw a female envoy walking to the courtyard where Hengyu was with medicine, stopped people and asked.
