Chapter 100: What a Thousand Husbands Refer to (1)
Fortunately, this whistleblower letter did not leak.
But why did Wei Yao receive the letter but not contact her?
Did he feel that what she said in her letter needed to be verified, or was he worried that another incident would arise after contacting her, so he planned to deal with the matter secretly and secretly?
Speculation is fruitless.
But Zheng Quqi is not a person who hesitates, since she has decided to take this step, she will not retreat, she plans to block the gate of the camp and ask Wei Yao himself.
After all, it's all coming.
She took the risk of this trip, and the price she had to pay was not small.
However, many times things don't go their way.
Zheng Quqi waited at the gate of the camp until sunset, and the dusk was poor, and it was almost night, but he never saw Wei Yao's figure.
When she was tired of standing, she squatted down at the deer, propped her chin on her hands, and stared at the passage in distraction, which looked very pitiful to others.
Seeing that she had been waiting for most of the day, the guard couldn't bear it, and when she was about to change the guard, he stepped forward to persuade her.
In the past few days, Wei Guard's return date has often been uncertain, and sometimes he will stay away overnight and not return, if she really has something urgent to find him, it is better to leave a message, and he will ask the guard who stands at night to convey it for her when the time comes.
Zheng Quqi stood up, her legs were numb, she inhaled "hissed" between her teeth, and waited for the sourness to pass before thanking the guards.
"Little brother, I just bothered you to enter the camp for me to find someone, I don't have any news for Brother Wei, but if he comes back, you will tell him that Sang Xuanqing has come to find him."
"Okay, I'll make a note of it."
"Oh, yes, it's a rare trip. I have participated in the construction of the camp with the carpenters recruited by Fuxian County before, and the wooden fence of the wall seems to have some unstable foundations, and there is no mud around it to prevent water or enemy fire, which is one of the hidden dangers. When the time comes, I will write an improvement book and submit it to the general. ”
If this is said by someone else, the guard thinks that the other party is talking nonsense, or talking big, but the guard knows that Sang Xuanqing is a carpenter, not only the construction of many fortifications in the camp is her handwriting, but now she is also the head of the city wall.
Yes, he naturally would not suspect her ulterior motives.
"That's right, that's okay, I'll go and talk to the guards at the lookout in a moment, you go first, but be careful, there are a lot of thorns around here, and it's easy to get hurt."
"Since people can't find it, it's worth it to do something practical." Zheng Quqi thanked him.
Zheng Quqi said so, but in fact, the real reason was that she couldn't leave like this, otherwise she wouldn't be able to say it clearly even if she had a mouth.
She had to do something so that she wouldn't suspect her true motives for coming to the camp.
He gave her two days that day, and told her to draw a detailed topographical map of the camp for him.
She agreed after some threats from him.
This is the best reason she can find this trip.
She pretended to observe the perimeter of the camp, and then ran to a high place to look, because the guards had made a point in advance, she was not arrested and interrogated as a suspicious person.
After she went back, she pretended to work overtime to produce the topographic map of the camp she wanted.
Of course, this topographic map is a fake that she specially processed and concocted.
She had indeed thought about being a double agent and a wall grass before, in short, she didn't want to give up her life easily not long after she crossed over.
However, with the fermentation of certain things and the influence of these people around her, her mentality has changed greatly from the beginning.
On the one hand, she used and coerced her to the fullest, and on the other hand, except for Yu Wensheng, the "living Yama", who made her afraid and wanted to avoid, the rest of the people, including her husband Liu Fengmian and those who treated her sincerely, made her unwilling and unwilling to be a second or fifth boy again.
They treated her with sincerity, and she wanted to reciprocate with sincerity.
Therefore, her heart is biased and will no longer waver.
She decided that even if she was an enemy of the Mo family from now on, even if she had to take the risk of betraying the Mo family, she would firmly stand on the side of Ye Guo.
No, to be more precise, she is on Yu Wensheng's side.
She will not choose to betray for the sake of a verbal lure.
"Brother, Fengmian, come with me to bet on this."
——
When he sneaked into the Guiqi Ridge and successfully obtained the topographic map from Zheng Quqi's hand, he spread it out and looked at it for a while, and at first glance, some of the layouts and locations were roughly in line with the direction he had in his impression.
But after all, he sneaked in, and he didn't know it well, so he wasn't sure about anything else.
"Are you sure there are no errors in this topographic map of the garrison?" He squinted at her.
Zheng Quchi's expression was very calm, and she smiled: "What? Worried that I'll draw you a fake topographic map? Then you think too much, am I not afraid of death? ”
He couldn't think of a reason why Zheng Quqi would betray him for a while, but he still felt a little nostalgic for her previous attitude and changes in his heart.
"Zheng Quchi, you have to keep in mind, don't think that you have mixed into the Ye country, and after a few days of being an ordinary person, you can really erase your past, except for the Mo family, no one will really accept a fine work like you." His eyes lowered and admonished her.
After Zheng Quqi was silent for a moment, he accepted it well: "I know." ”
After he left, Zheng Quqi slowly raised his eyes and stared at the flickering flames.
"You're just afraid that you don't know, Yu Wensheng already knew that I was a fine work of the Mo family, Uncle Mu, Wei Yao and Liu Fengmian, those craftsmen who worked with me, they would all accept a new me, I am no longer the Zheng Quqi of the Mo family, I will only be the Zheng Quqi of the Fuxian Sang family."
As long as he disappears completely, her identity will not be revealed, and her secret will always be just a secret.
——
After the fifteenth day of the first month, the climate of Ye country began to change sharply and aggravated the cold, looking like this, I am afraid that a heavy snow is going to fall in recent days.
This may be the last snow of this winter.
Seventeenth, look.
In the hazy sky, there was a cloud-like and non-cloudy, foggy and non-foggy weather near the Guili Ridge, and the sky was gray from morning to night.
Zheng Quqi stood at the perimeter station, for some reason in the past few days, she had been in a state of uneasiness and nervousness, as if something would happen that made her unpredictable.
She suddenly remembered her artisan rating.
Obviously, Uncle Mu said that he would bring her the results after the year, but she never received the news.
There is also Wei Yao, there has been no word in the past few days, and even he has disappeared without a trace.
Her surroundings suddenly became empty, and she couldn't see her fingers, and she couldn't see what the final outcome would be.
In the end, if you can successfully rescue Qiu, perhaps, he will be invited into the urn by Yu Wensheng because of her informant, and become the same as Qiu.
Someone below shouted upward: "Sang Gong, Qi Gong asked you to go and take a look at the ticket door, saying that it seems that the frame is not strong enough, in addition, he also found that some of the blue bricks are not engraved with the name of the maker, do we still want to use it?" ”
Because Zheng Quqi once strictly stipulated that every stone and every green brick used on the city wall must be marked with the person in charge, so that the responsibility will be implemented layer by layer and the quality tracking system will be formed, which can effectively prevent people from being lazy and making profits from it.
When Zheng Quqi heard this, he hurriedly walked down from above: "Who is responsible for procurement and transportation?" Why don't you use the North Stone Blue Bricks that were commonly used before? ”
The stonemason who passed the word was also helpless: "I heard that the brick replacement was arranged by the people in the county, and they also transported it to Guiqiling, I don't know who handled this matter, and we have to investigate, we craftsmen still found something wrong when moving bricks, and Qi Gong sent me to call you over to discuss." ”
Zheng Quqi put down the stone in his heart for the time being, and focused on the current fortifications first.
As soon as Qi Gong saw her coming, he hurriedly led her to see this batch of green brick materials.
Zheng Quqi strode widely, stepped forward a few steps to lift the tarpaulin covering it, and then Juqing stared intently at the green bricks.
No, it's not a green brick burned with the technique she taught, but an inferior brick made by cutting corners.
She stepped forward and grabbed a piece and broke it off, the sparse gap, the crunchy feeling of the powder that did not meet the water content, all made her anger burn deep in her eyes, she let go of her hand, and trampled it into powder under her feet.
"This batch of bricks can't be used, where is the return!"
At this moment, a group of people hurried over from the other side, led by an engineer and several stonemasons.
The worker's surname was Bai, and with a wave of his hand, he stopped the behavior of other people: "No, this batch of bricks was sent after the approval of the county magistrate, and it meets the conditions and procedures. Who is responsible for the loss? ”
Zheng Quqi saw that the person surnamed Bai was not good, so he didn't answer his mouth, and only said: "The county order is busy, maybe it has nothing to do with the county order, but it is just that an irresponsible person under him has done something wrong, if you don't dare to go, let me go." ”
Bai Gongguan stopped her and said in a vicious tone: "Sang Xuanqing, don't think that others respectfully call you Sang Gong, you are really our talker, this matter is not up to you, this batch of bricks must be used today." ”
At this time, Zheng Quqi was also completely enraged by him: "How do you use it?" ”
She pushed him away, picked up a piece from the pile of bricks, and slammed it to the ground in front of everyone, and it shattered into slag.
"Look at it, with this kind of quality, such a brick, how many times do you think it can withstand the wind and rain, and withstand several hits from the enemy?"
Officer Bai was shocked by her hand, and suddenly became dumbfounded.
Zheng Quqi's eyes looked coldly, and he and the people behind him.
"Do you know that this is the strongest line of defense that our Fu County has erected from now on? There are some things, and I don't need to say more, you should all know that over the years, we have taken measures to expel and deploy defenses against the nomadic barbarians, but with little effect, and how much financial resources and human lives have been lost, have you counted? ”
These nomadic barbarians have always sent small groups of cavalry to loot the perimeter of Ye without warning, and due to the wide range of borders, many times, the defenders cannot predict which direction these nomadic barbarians' cavalry will attack.
In addition, the cavalry of the nomadic barbarians will leave quickly after looting the people's belongings and women, and they are not in love with war, so it is difficult for the defenders to arrive in time to rescue.
And the original intention and purpose of Ye Guo to build the city wall is this.
Over the years, due to the damage and destruction of the surrounding city walls, coupled with the disrepair, the extensive area has been out of control, which has also made these nomadic barbarians more and more arrogant, thinking that Fuxian is powerless against them.
And now she has filled all the previous omissions and vacant positions by dotted lines, filling them all up, and re-establishing an impregnable line of defense, so that they will not have any chance to invade again.
Even if it is an invasion, be prepared to pay a huge price for it.
Some of the craftsmen behind the Bai Gongguan were in the same stream and said nonchalantly: "Do you still need to talk about these things?" ”
Zheng Quqi smiled, full of sarcasm: "So, since even a three-year-old child understands something, why do you still want to do such a thing that lacks morality?" You have stained this life-saving money and made it shoddy, have you ever thought about who will be the last victim and sufferer? ”
I saw that all the truth hidden under the fig leaf was torn apart by Zheng Quqi without reservation, and their faces suddenly turned blue and black.
"It's you, it's your family, it's your home, it's your country! Is it worth it just for this little money? She asked them aloud.
Seeing that there were a lot of people around him, Bai Gongguan hurriedly shouted: "Don't talk nonsense here!" ”
Bai Gongguan rushed over angrily, raised his fist and wanted to beat Zheng Quqi, but was stopped by Qi Gong on the side.
"Officer Baigong, what are you going to do?!" Qi Gong glared at him.
Bai Gongguan's forehead jumped: "What to do?" I'm going to teach her a lesson, a man who doesn't know the height of the sky! You let go! ”
Qi Gong naturally couldn't watch Sang Xuanqing being beaten by Bai Gongguan, so the two of them started to fight.
At this time, the people who helped on Qi Gong's side and the people on Bai Gongguan's side all joined in, and the scene was extremely chaotic for a while.
Although Zheng Quqi hid behind Qi Gong, he would still be accidentally affected by it, and the corner of his mouth was hit, cracking the mouth.
!
It's too much of a deception!
It is said that this Bai Gongguan is the nephew of the county commander, and for this reason, she has tolerated him repeatedly, and now, she really can't bear it anymore.
She raised her delicate little fist, intending to give him a sanction, but she casually glanced at the bend in the shade of the mountain not far away, and saw an incredible scene.
She recognized the equipment of this cavalry, and her eyes were in a trance, as if she had returned to the merciless massacre not long ago.
Her teeth interlaced and her bite creaked.
It's nomad, herdsman, barbarian, and son!
It's this group of slaughterers!
But why, why are they here again today? What about Yu Wensheng? Did he pretend to travel today, or had he already gone to the western grasslands to patrol the border?
"Run, run! The nomadic barbarians are coming! ”
She suddenly shouted with a loud scream, which directly stunned everyone.
