Chapter 32: Mistaken (4)
It was already bright outside, but the whole old shop was gradually quieting down. Not long after, Brother Ping and Shu'er came upstairs to see me, Brother Ping Sixth Brother smiled and said: "Little brother, don't blame, although they are your colleagues, but you are in my shop, and you are a newcomer, presumably you have something to do, I am afraid that many things are ambiguous, so I didn't let you down." ”
I knew that he was kind, and his words were somewhat subtle, although I was puzzled, but I still politely gave a salute and said, "Thank you for your attention!" Some things are really unclear for a while. "Brother Ping Sixth asked me to sit down elsewhere, and asked my daughter to bring me tea and pastries again, the woman's eyes were full of aura, flour and white teeth, and the corners of her mouth were smiling, without any twisting, Brother Ping Sixth Brother saw me looking at his daughter, and said with a smile: "Little girl Shu'er, you saw it the day before yesterday, she lost her mother since she was a child, she was in the old house of Gusu, accompanied her grandmother, and recently entered the capital to help me with some chores in the store!" In terms of age, you are older than her! ”
Na Shu'er smiled at me, and said, "Brother Zhang, I will rely on you to take care of the old Ping family store in the future!" I smiled dumbly and said, "I'm just a new hairy guy, this is a place frequented by Jinyiwei, how many adults are in front, how dare I ask Da Ti to take care of Sixth Brother Ping here?" However, I will definitely come back more often in the future. ”
Sixth Brother Ping smiled and nodded, and then motioned for Shu'er to go out, and then said to me: "They said that Jinyiwei is missing a brother, it must be you, I don't know what happened to you last night, but be careful when you go back!" ”
I hurriedly said: "Actually, it's nothing, I just went out to chase people, I didn't want to get lost, and I tossed for half a night before I came here." "I didn't dare to say anything about the temple, but I guessed that it should be Dongchang.
Sixth Brother Ping smiled and said: "I heard a few adults say about last night's incident, the movement is quite big, presumably Brother Zhang must have kung fu, the so-called newborn calf is not afraid of tigers!" Good! ”
Then, he said meaningfully: "Brother Zhang, you are a person in the public family, much stronger than us ordinary people, but I see that you have just entered the capital, you are not familiar with the place, as a big brother, say a few more words, Jinyiwei is a big yamen, especially your Zhenfu Division, there are many people and miscellaneous mouths, you must be careful, some things must be buried in the stomach, don't easily tell others." Moreover, the capital is bigger, and there are many dignitaries and dignitaries, which is not something that ordinary people like us can bear. I heard his words, and felt that he meant well, so I quickly got up and said: "I am also young and vigorous, I don't know the rules, in the future, please remind the sixth brother more, in fact, I should call you the sixth uncle Ping, my father is about the same age as you." Sixth Brother Ping smiled and said, "Sixth Brother is called by these brothers, whether you call me Sixth Brother or Sixth Brother, I am all happy." ”
Then he said: "Last time I heard you say, are you from Baoding?" I nodded, and Sixth Brother Ping said "oh" and said, "There is another acquaintance in my family over there, but I don't know if it's still there?" My heart moved, but I didn't answer him. Sixth Brother Ping smiled and said, "You're still too young to know you." ”
It was not early, I said goodbye, Na Shu'er was busy below, I didn't bother her, but I thought her side figure was beautiful. And Brother Ping Liuhe stood elsewhere with a smile, his eyes full of joy, watching me leave!
I left the old store of the Ping family and came straight to the back door of the town Fuji. At this time, it was early in the morning, the sun was shining, and the street was already full of people, a peaceful scene. Compared with the dark sky last night, it makes people feel like they are in a different world. But I didn't dare to be careless, I was still very vigilant, carefully observed the surrounding situation, walked for a long time, and did not find anyone following me, and smoothly arrived at the back door of the Zhenfu Division, I took a long breath, slowed down, slowed down, looked around, and still saw many people sitting there in front of the door, presumably all of them were the families of those prisoners, waiting for news here.
This kind of thought only passed in my mind for a while, and I didn't think much about it, I just wanted to go back to Weili and not let everyone be anxious. I had just walked a few steps when someone suddenly stopped me and said, "Stay on the errand!" "I saw that it was the high migration that stopped me and Xiang Chong a few days ago, I hesitated, it's been two days since this happened, so Xiang Chong can do it, right? Although I thought so, I was still pulled by him to a place, he took out a silver ticket from his arms, stuffed it into me and said: "It's convenient to go on an errand, check the whereabouts of my family as soon as possible, his name is Gao Dezheng, and the news is missing, if the officials find that my family has not arrived on the specified date, I am afraid that things will get bigger and bigger, and it is a trivial matter to remove the official position, and my young lady will go crazy." As he spoke, he pointed to a soft sedan chair in the shade of a tree not far away, and said, "The young lady is there, what do you need, just ask!" I subconsciously took a look, a maid standing beside the sedan chair, looking thoughtful, seeing me look here, seemed to say something, the sedan curtain opened, a petite woman poked her head out, and then walked out, a deep salute, I just glanced at it, felt that this woman was very handsome, then turned her head again, excused herself and said, "What is this?" Why, didn't he give you an answer? Gao Qian shook his head and said, "I went to the old Pingjia store twice in a row, but I didn't see him. Presumably it is busy with official business and has no time to take care of it, so please bother and help! ”
I nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go back to my life first, ask him, he will never break his word, there are a lot of official duties these days, presumably he doesn't have the time to pass, I ask for news today, and I will naturally come out to tell you!" The high move made a gesture again and again, and said: "Thank you, thank you, there is labor, there is labor!" "The silver ticket was sent to me, I was afraid that there would be too many people, and it was not good to excuse myself, so I had to accept it, my face was hot, and I walked straight in.
I thought that my return would make the Zhenfu Division a sensation, after all, when I was in the old shop of the Ping family, Gu Dayou said that the matter was too serious. I didn't want to enter the back door by myself, I was still on duty, and when I saw me, I nodded slightly, and turned around and looked away, without the slightest superfluous words, I was surprised in my heart, and walked in.
Inside is even more calm, everything is according to plan, and there is no trace of how much turmoil last night was. When I arrived at the door of the Zhenfu Division, I met Gu Dayou head-on, I hurriedly saluted, he looked calm, and said: "You came just in time, Liao Qianhu is asking someone to find you, you go and reply!" As he spoke, he strode away.
I couldn't figure it out, I wasn't in the Pacification Division for one night, and no one took care of me, and I couldn't help but feel lost. When he arrived at the door, Liao Jianzhong shouted inside: "Zhang Ying, you come in!" ”
There was no one else inside, only Liao Jianzhong alone, his brows were tightly locked, although his face showed a tired look, but it was a little more relaxed, I came over to give a salute, he waved his hand, motioned for me to sit down, and said, "It's good for you to come back!" ”
His words cheered me up, nodded hurriedly, and said, "Let the adults bother!" Liao Jianzhong shook his head lightly, and paused: "There was a big incident in the Zhenfu Division last night!" That Yu Qi ran away from the edict. I already knew the news in the old Pingjia store, but I still pretended to be surprised and said, "Why did you run away?" At that time, we only saw a few robbers who ran away, and the prisoners stayed! ”
Liao Jianzhong's eyes lit up, and he said: "We all fell for the scheme, they kidnapped a brother, lit the acupoint, entered the edict prison, and let Yu Qi pretend to be a thief, and the person who held us hostage came out, in a hurry, the brothers only knew how to stare at the prisoner, but let the three go." Saying that, I slammed the table hard, I couldn't help but be dumbfounded, thinking that these people were really cunning, then Liao Jianzhong said again, "It's also my fault, I didn't give Yu Qi a torture instrument, hey, his skills have always been superb, and the wall of the Zhenfu Division can't stop him at all, by the way, Xiang Chong is gone, and he hasn't been found all night!" ”
It turned out that Gu Dayou had the person they were looking for in the old Ping family's store turned out to be Xiang Chong, not me, and I was suddenly very disappointed, feeling that I had been neglected a lot. Liao Jianzhong said: "You and Xiang Chong are familiar, do you know where he often goes?" ”
I was a little sneering and thought about it, "I have only been to the old Heike store with him, and I really haven't been to other places!" Liao Jianzhong nodded and said: "Early this morning, Gu Baihu and Ji Baihu went to the old store of the Ping family again, and there was nothing abnormal, too, you just came, and Xiang Chong only got along for a few days, it is estimated that you can't find the east, west, north and south, heh!" As he spoke, he actually smiled.
I was very puzzled, and wanted to tell Liao Jianzhong about last night's incident, but I heard someone say: "Then where can this Xiang Chong go?" A person said, walked out of the room, and when I saw it, it turned out to be Murong Zhao. His face was serious, I quickly got up to salute, Liao Jianzhong said: "It seems that Xiang Chong must have a big problem." ”
