Chapter 17: The Mansion of the State of Wei (6)

"Hehe, Mr. Xiao is polite. Maybe Zhu looked away. I'm just talking casually, talking about fun, Mr. Xiao doesn't have to care. Well, dare to ask where Mr. Xiao is from? ”

"Wu Ya is the Huguang people's clan, since he was a child, he wandered with his father in the rivers and lakes, and it was only in the second year of Hongwu that he settled down in the capital and did a small business to make a living." Xiao Wuya replied extremely quickly and quickly.

"Oh, Huguang, I just returned to Beijing from Huguang, the land of Jinghu Lake is really quite Chu Feng, the scenery is quite good, good place, good place."

Xiao Wuya didn't understand why Zhu Wenyu suddenly got into the scenery again, and couldn't figure out the intention of Zhu Wenyu's words for a while, so he had to smile carefully: "Lord Zhu has won the prize, how can the wilderness compare to the prosperity of the capital and the land of fish and rice in the south of the Yangtze River?" ”

"Hehe, by the way, how is Master Yu?" What other purpose did Zhu Wenyu have for what he said? It's just to disturb Xiao Wuya's mind and deliberately tear away the topic, at this time, seeing that Xiao Wuya couldn't stop wiping his sweat, he suddenly asked.

Xiao Wuya was stunned: "What is Master Yu?" Wuya is just doing some business in Beijing, and he has never had any dealings with people in the martial arts, and he doesn't know any Yu Zhang. ”

"Yu Shixiong, don't you know Mr. Xiao?" Zhu Wenyu pretended to be puzzled.

"Master Zhu, Wuya and his father are just ordinary people, doing a little business, and they have nothing to do with martial arts, Wuya knows a few hands and three-legged cats, and it is just for self-defense, nothing else, and has nothing to do with the Qingcheng faction, I really don't know any Yu master." Xiao Wuya distinguished.

"Open your eyes and speak in the vernacular! If you don't know Yu Shixiong, how do you know that he is the head of the Qingcheng faction? Zhu Wenyu scolded in his heart. However, he was really worried, according to Xiao Wuya's current reaction, he tried his best to hide that he knew Yu Shixiong, which shows that this "Ruyi Divine Sword" Yu Shixiong does have a problem, and it is very likely that he does have an unknown relationship with the Tianyi Alliance, which is where Zhu Wenyu is worried. I have a good impression of Yu Shixiong in Leshan, that Yu Shixiong is personable, mild-tempered, and gentle, and he is by no means like a person who is in the same stream as Du Feng and others in the Tianyi Alliance, but this is just a personal impression, but what makes Zhu Wenyu uneasy is that Yu Shixiong, as the head of the Central Plains martial arts family, is actually a member of the Tianyi Alliance, so how powerful is this Tianyi Alliance? Are there any other martial arts sects that have also joined the Tianyi Alliance? If so, who else? If you can't tell the true face of the opponent, it is like meeting a master in the darkness where you can't see your fingers, I don't know how the opponent will make a move, I can't prevent it, and I have fallen before I make a move, which makes Zhu Wenyu feel like he is sitting on pins and needles, and he is always uneasy.

"I'd better go back and talk to the desert." Zhu Wenyu thought of this, stood up, and said: "Hehe, Zhu was just entrusted by someone to send the box to the house, since it is already a mission, although the honorable man is not at home, it is the same to hand it over to Mr. Xiao, even if the entrusted thing has been handed over to the owner, Zhu has also calculated a matter of concern, since the matter is over, Zhu will not bother Mr. Xiao much, and ask Mr. Xiao to ask Mr. Xiao on his behalf, I wish him a long life and good health, and Zhu said goodbye. ”

Xiao Wuya was dizzy by Zhu Wenyu, and was eager to hear this, so he hurriedly got up and said: "Don't dare, don't dare, thank you Lord Zhu for your hard work this time, I should have invited Lord Zhu to eat in the cold house, but there are still some mundane things at home that need to be handled, and when he has time to go, Wuya will go to Lord Zhu's mansion to thank him, and today he will not be in vain to keep Lord Zhu." ”

"Mr. Xiao is polite, please stay, stay."

"Lord Zhu is leaving, please forgive me for sending it not far away. Thank you, Lord Zhu. ”

The two came and went politely in a pretended manner, and Zhu Wenyu finally left the Xiao Mansion and led his family to the mansion.

That Xiao Wuya waited for Zhu Wenyu to walk out of the mansion gate, and when he saw the courtyard door closed, he hurriedly ordered: "Someone!" Prepare the horses! Wei State Mansion!"

Xiao Wuya hurriedly hit a horse and came to the Wei Mansion in the south of the city, he was already a frequent visitor to the Wei State Mansion, and the porter did not report it, so he directly let him enter the mansion, Xiao Wuya commanded as soon as he entered the door: "Quick, there is something urgent to see the manager!"

Listening to Xiao Wuya's original retelling of what he said to Zhu Wenyu, Manager You muttered: "Well, this matter is indeed strange, it is not strange to see that you can do martial arts, he is also a master, but does he know that you are a member of the Tianyi Alliance?" And you know that you are the treasury of the Heavenly Clothes League? How would he know this? Could it be that he was the one who eavesdropped last night? ”

Xiao Wuya didn't dare to say much, just looked at Manager You.

"Well, maybe it's him. If it's really him, then it's logical, not only do you know that you have a treasury there, but you must also know about our relationship, which is a bit tricky. ”

"Master, can't you personally kill that Zhu Wenyu?" Xiao Wuya asked puzzled.

"Didn't I say that last night? It's not hard to get him hurt, but it's hard to keep him if it's not carefully arranged. Judging from Du Feng's secret report, this kid is not the kind of person who wants to die to save face, unlike those decent old things, who value face more than life, obviously can't beat it and would rather die than escape, this kid is to see that the situation is not good and run away first, and then say, I don't care about what master demeanor at all, this is a headache, if he can't kill him and he escapes, first, it will increase the damage, and second, our strength will be exposed prematurely, which is not conducive to major events, this matter must be discussed in the long run, and a few more masters have to be transferred into Beijing, and several people will shoot together, If he wanted to, he couldn't escape. ”

"Well, Master, the apprentice understands." Xiao Wuya said in a low voice.

"I have to think about this matter, whether it is this Zhu Wenyu last night or not, and whether the silver vault he mentioned today is intentional or unintentional, we must deal with it well, for the sake of safety, it seems that this silver has to be transferred to another place."

"Master, are we really just doing this just for the sake of the prince ascending to the throne?" Xiao Wuya asked suddenly.

"You will understand this later, in short, if the big thing is done, you will be the founder of the country, understand?"

"Yes, Master."

"You go back first, wait for my news, I'll arrange it." Mr. You waved his hand.

"Yes, Master, the apprentice went first."

"Go ahead."

However, it was said that Zhu Wenyu led the family all the way back to the house, and as soon as he entered the door, he shouted: "Eagle! Eagle!"

Desert and Tang Yun were waiting in the house, and when they saw him enter the house, they called out, thinking that something had happened, and hurriedly ran out: "What's the matter?" Brother Zhu? ”

"Let's go, let's go, said in the house."

The desert was made to cry and laugh by Zhu Wenyu, and followed him into the house.

"Yu Shixiong, the head of the Qingcheng faction's 'Ruyi Divine Sword', is probably also a member of the Tianyi Alliance." Zhu Wenyu said while pouring tea.

"What? Qingcheng faction Yu Shixiong? The desert stood up.

"You listen to me slowly, you see right." Zhu Wenyu took a sip of tea, took a breath, and said.

Zhu Wenyu recounted the conversation between Manager You, Dai Xingcheng and Xiao Wuya that he had heard in the Wei Mansion the night before, and said that he had just found out in the Xiao Mansion that the prince of the Xiao Mansion was the person who spoke to Manager You the night before, and said what he said in the Xiao Mansion and Xiao Wuya word for word, and finally said: "That's it." Eagle, tell me, is Yu Shixiong a member of the Tianyi Alliance? ”

"Brother Zhu, wait a minute, let me think about it." Desert Road.

"Brother Zhu, you first found the Wei Mansion from Mr. Dai, and knew that the Manager You of the Wei Mansion and Xiao Wuya were from the Tianyi Alliance, and then one of the boxes you brought back from Leshan was sent to Xiao Wuya's Mansion, and this box was entrusted by Liu Shicheng, the prefect of Leshan, so it is very likely that Liu Shicheng sent back to the capital the gold and silver property, and this Liu Shicheng is also a member of the Tianyi League. Liu Shicheng and Yu Shixiong have a good relationship, and Yu Shixiong also intentionally or unintentionally covered up the martial arts for Liu Shicheng, so Yu Shixiong may also be a member of the Tianyi Alliance, this line is like this, right? ”

"Hehe, that's exactly what it means." Zhu Wenyu said clearly when he saw the desert in a few words, and said with a smile.

"There are two doubts here, one is what is in the box entrusted by Liu Shicheng, must it be looted property? The second is that Liu Shicheng and Yu Shixiong have a good relationship, but they are not necessarily from the Tianyi Alliance......"

“…… But ......," Zhu Wenyu said hurriedly.

“…… Brother Zhu, don't worry, these are just two doubts, but for the sake of insurance, we still assume that Liu Shicheng and Yu Shixiong are both members of the Tianyi Alliance, and even the entire Qingcheng faction has entered the Tianyi Alliance, then we need to think about how to move next. ”

"If only the wood was there." Zhu Wenyu sighed.

"Brother Nangong returned to the Nangong family, mostly because of Nangong Zhi's affairs, and I don't know if he has gone out again at this time. I expect that I may not be able to come out for a while, Nangong Zhi joins the Tianyi Alliance, and the Nangong family must make some moves, I am afraid that Brother Nangong will need to learn more martial arts in order not to be subject to Nangong Zhi, but this is only an expedient measure, unless the head of the Nangong family personally takes action, otherwise if you want to subdue Nangong Zhi with Brother Nangong, I am afraid that it will not be possible. Nangong Zhi's whereabouts are uncertain, and it is impossible for the master of Nangong to always look for him on the rivers and lakes, and the Nangong family will inevitably have some countermeasures against this. ”

"So what do we do next?" Tang Yun next to him heard a bunch of Nangong in the desert's mouth, and he was already dizzy, and he couldn't wait to ask.

"Yu Shixiong is far away in Sichuan, you can ignore him for the time being, Brother Zhu, the most important thing now is probably to keep an eye on the Xiao Mansion and the Wei Mansion, in addition, Brother Zhu may have to explain this matter to the emperor and remind the emperor to pay attention to the Duke of Wei."

"Don't worry about telling the emperor in advance, I don't dare to believe that Wei Guogong will really be the mastermind of the Tianyi Alliance, it's really not like that kind of person, I have to inquire about this matter again, it may not be a good thing to stab the emperor too early." Zhu Wenyu shook his head and said.
