Chapter 166: Flowing Water
Under He De's guidance, Lu Heng finally found out that something was wrong.
If the person who came to fight the fire today was someone else, even if it was the same identity, he would not feel wrong, but this person was Zheng Rentai.
As early as the first day of the crossing, he had already figured out the identity and status of the other party.
As the most prominent military general of the Zheng clan in Xingyang, Zheng Rentai didn't have to take this risk to run to grab the credit, and it was a useless merit.
It's hard work and thankless, who is going to do this kind of work if it's not a fool?
But on the contrary, Zheng Rentai just did it, and he was extremely positive!
"You mean, today's fire has nothing to do with the Zheng family?"
Lu Heng turned his head to look at He De:
"It's just the two of us in the carriage, you can call a spade a spade."
He De pondered for a moment.
He didn't know what the consequences of what he was saying now would be.
If it was Li Chengqian or Cheng Chumo who came to ask, he could tell all his guesses, but in the face of Lu Heng, he had to think carefully.
After all, the great achievements of this future horse master are still vivid.
If he didn't say anything right, he was really worried that Lu Heng would directly draw his knife and cut Zheng Rentai!
"Actually, it's not entirely certain."
After thinking about it for a long time, He Decai cautiously spoke:
"I just think there are some strange things, if you want to investigate in the future, you can start with him, but what the truth is, you can't make a conclusion based on speculation alone."
"But now that he's here, the nature of things is different."
"Who is under the jurisdiction of this Anrenfang, I don't know much about living in the palace for a long time, but this matter is under the control of the forbidden army after all, and it will be clear to see if there will be people from the forbidden army later."
Speaking of the forbidden army, He De explained to Lu Heng, a semi-literate person.
After listening to it, Lu Heng realized that if this matter had been two or three years earlier, he would have met another acquaintance.
Not only Zheng Rentai belongs, but all the other forbidden troops in Miyagi are all the same person, that is, the general of the left leading army.
When Zhenguan was in the seventh year, Cheng Yanjin was sitting in this position.
And now......
"Zhang Shigui? This name sounds familiar. ”
Hearing this name, Lu Heng muttered two sentences in his mouth.
It should be more or less a historical celebrity, he must have heard it somewhere, but he can't remember it for a while.
It can't be compared with the names of people like Fang Xuanling, eldest grandson Wuji, and Cheng Biting Jin, but they are certainly not small people.
Soon, Lu Heng shook off the distracting thoughts in his mind.
None of these things are the point right now.
He's gotten to know a lot of historical celebrities since he crossed over, but so what?
Five surnames and seven hopes, many people are named and surnamed in the history books, and now it seems that they are not also a group of ruffians and hooligans who claim to be famous!
"Let's go down, we'll meet him."
Lu Heng lifted the curtain and got out of the car, his tone calm:
"Whether their general comes or not, I'm sure I'm going to ask for clarification today."
………………
This side of the fire.
Zheng Rentai arrived quickly, and when he came, there was still a sea of fire, and there was a tendency to spread.
Therefore, after commanding here for more than half an hour, his face was black, and his eyebrows and hair were a little curly, and he looked very embarrassed.
But he didn't really care.
Since you have done your job, you have to take the opportunity to sell miserably with Your Majesty, and let Your Majesty see how hard you work.
How else to prove how hard he worked?
Finally extinguishing the fire, Jung In-tae was about to rest for a while when he suddenly heard a familiar and annoying voice from behind him.
"Oh, isn't this Guizheng County Gong, how hard did you come to put out the fire in person!"
He turned his head to look, and the person behind him was indeed that Lu Heng and Lu Hanzi.
Lu Heng stepped forward and arched his hand at him.
"Part of the fire you are saving now is the property of our bookstore."
"Although the books and papers in it are gone, this fire started because of us, and thank you for controlling the fire and making us less guilty!"
His words are rarely polite, and there is no problem with the use of words, but Zheng Rentai just feels yin and yang weird no matter how he listens to it.
Is it because this kid has never spoken properly?
Hiss...... There are quirks!
Zheng Rentai raised his vigilance and arched his hand at him.
"Lu Gongzi doesn't have to be polite."
"This official is subordinate to the forbidden army, so he naturally has jurisdiction over what happens in the capital."
"Besides, this Anrenfang is close to Kaihuafang, and the official's house is also there, if everyone sweeps the snow in front of the door, I'm afraid the fire will spread to their own homes."
The explanation he gave was very reasonable, and he didn't seem to have the intention of rushing in to steal merit at all, and only attributed the reason for the fire to his identity and the location of the mansion.
Lu Heng raised his eyebrows, still smiling.
"I see."
"But I've heard that this kind of fire is generally responsible for each city, why haven't they come yet? It's been an hour. ”
"Such an irresponsible street envoy, compared to you, is simply a high judgment!"
The more polite he was, the stronger the foreboding in Zheng Rentai's heart became.
This kid has never spoken well to himself, but today he suddenly changed his temper and specified that he didn't hold back any good fart!
Sure enough, after praising it first, Lu Heng's tone was different.
"It's the first time I've known today that every city has a street envoy who is responsible for patrolling, both during the day and after the curfew."
"Last time, your evil servant ran to my little hospital to smash the field, and no one came to stop it at that time."
"But this can also be explained, after all, it is normal for this kind of little minions at the bottom not to dare to offend Zhonglang General, you just need to say hello in advance."
"But this time I'm really curious......"
"Even if Song Guogong said it in advance, but there was such a serious fire in the Fang City under his jurisdiction, and it was deliberately arson, if they didn't care, wouldn't they be afraid of losing their heads?"
The beads of sweat on Zheng Rentai's forehead immediately began to rise.
Lu Heng didn't scold as soon as he opened his mouth like before, and started directly.
But he can't wait for the other party to fight with him!
Although everything Lu Heng said just now was blaming the patrol envoys of Anrenfang, in fact, every word was questioned.
Zheng Rentai is a cultural person and knows "Tang Law Shu Yi" very well.
The law clearly states that if the official in charge of the area fails to arrive at the scene of the fire in the first place, he will be punished extremely severely.
Punishment is fine, and beheading!
“…… I don't know why. ”
Zheng Rentai wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead and forced himself to calm down:
"These minions are always derelict in their duties, maybe they are going somewhere to eat and drink."
"When the fire here is completely extinguished, the official will definitely call them to come over and ask what happened!"
Good or bad acting.
Lu Heng silently judged in his heart-
It's not as good as Xiao Yu's performance.
