Volume 17 Wine Boiled Chapter 1773 Mysterious Boy

Hu Wei and Zhu Daneng seem to have returned to their lives for more than 20 years, Hu Wei has become a document, and Zhu Daneng has become an uncle who sweeps the floor, if they don't see it with their own eyes, who would dare to believe that they will still have the time to do this. In the eyes of those who know them, they are down, but they themselves do not see it that way.

"Another day has passed, and now it's really a very leisurely day. Zhu Daneng said lazily to Hu Wei. From the afternoon to now, he has been sitting under the tree for more than three hours, which is unimaginable from before.

When he was a general before, how many things did Zhu Daneng need to deal with every day, how could he have time to bask in the sun and watch the sunset here.

"Yes, life is really leisurely now, watching the sun pass the sky every day, hehe, seriously, do you like your current life?" Hu Wei spit out the grass in his mouth, he has also been sitting here for more than an hour, although he is not as idle as Zhu Daneng, but it is enough.

Zhu Daneng smiled and said: "When I was busy before, I always thought about when I could be free, and I didn't need to do anything." Now that I'm really idle, I realize that this kind of life is really not what we live. ”

"That means you don't like it. Hu Wei concluded.

"I can't say whether I like it or not, but I feel like I'm living like this, and it's a bit of a waste of rice. ”

"We're not professionals here. Hu Wei reminded Zhu Daneng. People say that if you are idle for too long, your nerves will relax, and once your nerves are relaxed, you will be less sensitive to the things around you. Hu Wei felt that he needed to remind Zhu Daneng, don't be so idle that he doesn't even remember business.

Zhu Daneng cheered up and said: "I know the purpose of our coming here, isn't it that He Liangyu has not moved on his side." Speaking back, no matter who the person who used drugs to control He Liangyu and them is, he can be regarded as doing a good deed now, isn't he?"

Hu Wei nodded and said, "Yes, yes, no, we can't think so." This person can do good deeds with poison, and he can also do things that harm the common people. Good and evil are only in a thought, and it will be more reassuring for us to find out. ”

"Hmm. Zhu Daneng agreed: "You are not wrong, if you don't find out about this matter, it is always a heart disease, but I don't know when I will find out the clues." ”

During this time, Hu Wei and Zhu Daneng used the time available to secretly observe He Liangyu's movements, and it can almost be said that they watched He Liangyu's every move, but so far, they have not found any useful information. Now they can be said to be in addition to knowing that He Liangyu was poisoned and accused. I don't know anything else.

"Take your time, no matter how good your defense is, there will be flaws. We are now mentally calculated or unintentional, unless He Liangyu and they have not made any movement all the time, otherwise we will definitely know. ”

After the end of the Han and Tang Dynasties, Hu Wei can be said to have a lot of time, and now that he has found a clue, he is not afraid to wait.

Zhu Daneng stretched his waist and said, "Then let's continue to wait, I won't tell you, it's time for us to have dinner over there." I didn't have anything good to eat when I was late. ”

"You guy, you're already that big, and you've been thinking about eating all day, go ahead. Go, yours!"

On this day, Hu Wei got up early in the morning, washed up and had breakfast. As usual, came to He Liangyu's military tent. Through guΓ² after a period of study, he already knows how to make a qualified essay. Li Fuzi has now handed over most of the work to him, and his workload has naturally increased, and he is no longer as idle as before.

"Report, outsiders from the camp said that there are important documents to be handed over to the district chief. ”

Hu Wei was thinking about where to start today, when his thoughts were interrupted by the soldier's words.

"The district chief went out early in the morning. Hu Wei replied casually. For twenty years, he had become accustomed to soldiers' reports, and he did not feel that there was anything wrong with him speaking to soldiers in such a tone.

This soldier was also kind, and in his opinion, the people who worked in the district chief's tent should be higher than him, so he didn't feel any dissatisfaction because of Hu Wei's answer.

"What did the district chief say when he would come back?" The soldier saw that there were not many things that had happened, and he had no experience in this area, he had come to find the district chief He Liangyu, but now that He Liangyu was not there, he didn't know what to do.

"He doesn't have a book, what kind of important documents are you can't collect on your behalf?" asked Hu Wei strangely. In his opinion, in addition to military secrets, there are no very important documents, and it will not be a big problem to hand them over to others when He Liangyu returns.

"This ...... I'm going to ask. The soldier said and left the stunned Hu Wei and hurried away, and when Hu Wei came back to his senses, he took out a large envelope and hurried back.

"It turned out that it could really be collected on behalf of him, and the man said that he would give you the letter first, and then give him the letter when the district chief came back. The soldier was very excited when he said this, perhaps in his opinion it was a wonderful thing.

Hu Wei didn't think there was anything remarkable about this, and he also knew that the 'you' in the mouth of the person who sent the letter did not refer to Hu Wei, but to the soldier himself. And this soldier was misunderstood as Hu Wei.

It was really unclear to such a stunned soldier, and Hu Wei was really afraid that if he left this letter in the soldier's hands, he would not be at peace all day. Anyway, it's just a matter of raising your hands, so it's better to help him.

"Then you can put it on the table, and when the district chief comes back, I will help you hand it to him." ”

"Okay, then I'll leave it here. The soldier dropped the letter and ran away. Hu Wei guessed correctly, this letter was only in his hand for a while, he didn't know what he should do, if this letter was held in his hand for a day, he was afraid that he would really die.

"This kid. Hu Wei looked at the back of the soldier leaving and couldn't help laughing. It's been a long time since I've seen such a simple person, and the last time I saw it for a long time, it feels pretty good. But if you deal with such people all day long, it's really unbearable.

He Liangyu only came back in the afternoon when it was almost dark. When he came back, Hu Wei had finished today's work and was lying on the table practicing calligraphy. I really didn't think it was addictive to practice words when I didn't practice words before, but it turned out that practicing words was also addictive. Looking at the words written by myself, one by one became more and more beautiful. Hu Wei himself felt quite happy.

"It's well written, it's much better than when I first started. He Liangyu took a look and boasted.

"This is all taught by Master Li well. Hu Wei smiled and got up and took the coat in He Liangyu's hand. His clerk is actually not much different from the secretary of his world, in short, he does whatever he sees. But everything about He Liangyu is within the scope of his duties.

"Well, Li Fuzi is indeed a capable person, you can learn more things with him when you have the opportunity, and it won't hurt to do any harm. By the way, did anyone send me a letter today?"

"Yes. If He Liangyu didn't say it, Hu Wei really wouldn't remember. This used to happen. They are all taking care of the red leaves, and Hu Wei has not taken care of it much. Now that he is here to help He Liangyu take care of it, he is really not so used to it, although Hu Wei is already doing it very hard, but he is not a professional after all.

"If you have it, you don't have to bring it, I know what's going on. He Liangyu waved his hand at Hu Wei, signaling that Hu Wei didn't need to go with him.

"Oh. Although Hu Wei was a little strange, since He Liangyu already knew the content, why did he have to do more, then what kind of letter did he send. Isn't this a waste of manpower and material resources?

He Liangyu looked at Hu Wei with a puzzled look, and took the initiative to explain: "Actually, this is just a notice from the city lord, he will come to our district to inspect the work in a few days, and he has basically been to several other districts." It's time to do the math in our district. ”

"I see. Hu Wei was relieved. He knew that the city lord in He Liangyu's mouth was Zhou Tianshu, the city lord of Dragon City, and after Rijkaard retook charge of Dragon City, he set up a city lord and nine district chiefs in Dragon City, and this Zhou Tianshu was Rijkaard's newly appointed Dragon City Lord. That is, the city lord of the capital of the Taiping Empire.

The name Zhou Tianshu has heard a lot of words, but he has never seen this person. In fact, the people in the management of the Taiping Empire. Except for Hu Wei, who knew that there were Suarez and Ouyang Putin, he basically didn't know any other people. Counting up, these people should be the talents that Rijkaard cultivated in secret.

Twenty years have passed, and the young man has become a little old man, and no matter how good Rijkaard is, it is impossible to use his old subordinates again, and it is necessary to use new people.

"Then should we do something to prepare?" Hu Wei asked. He remembered that when he was originally given the world, as soon as it said that there would be any inspection, the streets were very strict, not to mention the high-class opening, even if they were worn out, they would not let you go to the streets, saying that it would affect the city's appearance. Hu Wei still doesn't understand what the meaning of such an inspection is, it is completely the people above who are pretending, and the people below are also pretending.

He Liangyu waved his hand again and again when he heard this: "Don't, we can know this matter ourselves, we don't need to have any deliberate preparation, what should be done in normal times, the same or how to do it." In addition, you can know this news, don't spread it around, the lord of the city is a person who likes to keep a low profile, and everyone will know about this matter, and he will be unhappy. ”

He would definitely not say anything about other people's worries, but he would definitely sue Zhu Daneng for the news that the city lord Zhou Tianshu was coming to the barracks.

"Do you think Zhou Tianshu was also poisoned?" When Zhu Daneng heard the news, he didn't immediately care about what Zhou Tianshu came to the barracks for, but whether he was poisoned like He Liangyu.

Hu Wei shook his head and said, "This is really hard to say. He Liangyu didn't know what kind of poison they had on their bodies, and they usually didn't see any signs at all. ”

Zhu Daneng sighed: "This Rijkaard is worthy of being a strongman, he can do something casually, it is enough for us to guess for a long time." In fact, Zhou Tianshu is here and will come, can we do anything?"

"It's up to chance, and now if you ask me, I can't tell. Anyway, you just keep this matter in mind, and we will do something when we have the opportunity. If we don't have a chance, we'll just look at it. ”

Zhou Tianshu came on the third day after delivering the letter, and he didn't bring many guards with him when he came, and there were only more than 20 people when he was full, but there was one person who caught Hu Wei's attention.

The person who caught Hu Wei's attention was not Zhou Tianshu, but a little boy who looked to be only seven or eight years old. Hu Wei thought it was Zhou Tianshu's son at first, but when he carefully observed the appearance of the two and the way they communicated, he found that the child not only had no blood relationship with Zhou Tianshu, but Zhou Tianshu was quite polite to him.

Zhou Tianshu is now a city lord, why should he be so polite to a child?

This alone feels suspicious. You must know that Rijkaard's descendants are all aware of Hu Wei. This child will not be Rijkaard's descendant, Zhou Tianshu must be polite to him, there must be another reason.

Many people may wonder: how much ability can a seven- or eight-year-old child have, and can he pay so much attention to it?

But Hu Wei doesn't see it that way, you must know that there must be a demon when something goes wrong, and the details are the ones who determine success or failure. If this special child is not found, it is even so, since he has found that this child is not ordinary, Hu Wei has no reason not to think about checking his bottom.

Zhu Daneng was a little unimpressed by Hu Wei's thoughts, and said, "I'm afraid this is not easy." We don't have any soldiers here, and a child is not so conspicuous, so there will not be many people paying attention, and there will be even less news of success. ”

Zhu Daneng's words are not unreasonable. A child, no matter how strong he is, is limited, and the real person in charge is the adult behind him, so he really wants to check. Then it might as well start with the adults behind him.

"Let you go, where is so much nonsense. Hu Wei said dissatisfiedly: "No matter how Zhou Tianshu recruits, he should be regarded as a high-level figure in the Taiping Empire, and this kid will definitely not be simple." You take advantage of the opportunity to clean first. Talk to the drivers and see what else you find. ”

"Okay, okay, I'm going to go right away. Seeing that Hu Wei's face was not very good, Zhu Daneng didn't dare to joke.

"Remember if you find anything, let me know immediately!"

"Gu Yue, where have you gone, I'm looking for you. Hu Wei saw that Zhu Daneng had just come back, so he let Master Li stop him.

Seeing Mr. Li's anxious look, Hu Wei couldn't help but ask strangely, "Mr. Li, is something wrong?"

"It's not an accident, it's a meal, ouch, let's go, everything is waiting for you." ”

"Wait for me?" Hu Wei was made a little stupid, when did he have such a big face here, and there were still people waiting for him when he ate.

was pulled all the way by Li Fuzi, and Hu Wei understood what happened. It turned out to be the child who was noticed by Hu Wei, and for some reason, he suddenly proposed to let Hu Wei also participate in the banquet.

Before, Hu Wei saw that they were going to eat, and he didn't have anything to do, so he went to find Zhu Daneng. The place where Zhu Daneng is located is far away from here, and Hu Wei is not good at running in the barracks, so this time and again will delay some time, and he really didn't expect that someone would wait for him to open the table.

Li Fuzi was not invited to the banquet, he just pulled Hu Wei outside the military tent and left, Hu Wei couldn't help but be a little funny when he looked at his back as he left. This is why Li Fuzishu is too angry, if he changes to someone else, how can he take the opportunity to show his face. Otherwise, who knows who found the man.

"Why are you still here in a daze, come with me, it's all waiting for you. ”

Hu Wei was still thinking about Li Fuzi there, and he was pulled by He Liangyu, who didn't know where to jump out, and walked into the military tent. This once again verifies that the identity of the child is very important, if it weren't for this, how could He Liangyu be so anxious because of a child's request, and even run out to find it himself.

"Chief, this ...... Why do I drink too?" Hu Wei pretended to be a little afraid. In any case, he is also a person who has risen from coolie to clerk, and he should be apprehensive when he encounters this kind of thing.

"If you want to go, you will go, where is so much nonsense. You can remember for me, eat more food and talk less for a while, and don't say anything if you can. Got it?"

He Liangyu was afraid that Hu Wei had not seen the scene, and something would happen at the banquet, so he told Hu Wei all the way. How did he know that Hu Wei couldn't write, and he saw a lot of things in the world. Isn't it just that you should have dinner with a seven- or eight-year-old child, so what's the big deal?

Hu Wei didn't think so in his heart. The mouth still said yes again and again. In this way, Hu Wei was pulled into the banquet by He Liangyu.

"I'm sorry, we're a little late, so we've been waiting for a long time. As soon as He Liangyu entered the military tent, he immediately said kind words first, while Hu Wei stood aside, there was no place for him to speak, and he had nothing to say.

Feeling that a gaze stopped on him, Hu Wei quietly followed that gaze, and soon saw the owner of that gaze - the child.

"What's your name?" the boy asked in a whisper. When he sits down, he should open his mouth. Hu Wei was arranged to sit next to the boy. The boy did not sit in the main seat, but in a relatively remote place, and casual speech did not arouse the approval of others.

"Gu Yue. Hu said two words sullenly. When he was introduced just now, He Liangyu had introduced his name, and since this boy was so interested in him, there was no reason why he couldn't hear it. For this kind of knowingly questioning behavior, Hu Wei doesn't like it very much.

"I'm asking for your real name. The boy didn't intend to let Hu Wei go just like that, and it seemed that he was not so satisfied with Hu Wei's answer.

"Gu Yue is my real name. Hu Wei suppressed the secret shock in his heart and replied with a calm face. He really didn't expect the boy to talk like that.

The boy gave Hu Wei a deep look. "Many years ago, I had a very good friend who went missing, and you looked a lot like my friend. ”

"Your friend?" Hu Wei said with a smile: "Your friend should be about the same age as you, even after many years." He shouldn't be as big as me, right?"

Hu Wei said that this is common sense, even a person with a less intelligent brain will understand this truth. But as if the boy didn't seem to understand, he said, "Can you sue me by your real name?"

Hu Wei was really speechless by this guy. Not bad. It's true that the name Gu Yue is not his real name, but this boy has no reason to know this. You have to know how he looks now, but the image he had when he first arrived in the Tianfeng Continent twenty years ago, at that time, this boy was afraid, well, he was absolutely unborn, how could he have seen him.

"My real name is Gu Yue. Hu Wei replied angrily. There was no reason to talk to this kid, and he wasn't going to tell him that much.

When the boy heard Hu Wei's words, he sighed and said, "It seems that you really don't want to say it." But that's okay, I think I've already got the answer. ”

"What answer do you have?" If you can, Hu Wei really wants to beat this guy up, people can be unreasonable, but they can't be too unreasonable. He didn't say anything here, what answer did he have?

This time, the boy ignored Hu Worry and lowered his head to eat his own food. The boy's way of eating is not quite the same as that of ordinary people, who mostly eat with his right hand, while he uses his left hand.

When Hu Wei withdrew his gaze, he deliberately glanced at his left hand. At that moment, Hu Wei suddenly felt that this boy was very familiar, but where this familiarity came from, he couldn't think clearly.

"Maybe it's overthinking. Hu Wei shook his head, expelling this thought from his brain. He didn't remember when he had any contact with a little boy, and how could he be familiar with it.

But sometimes there are some things, the more you don't think about them, the more they keep coming to mind. Hu Wei had already planned to think about this strange boy, but the image of this boy, especially the way he was eating, had already been imprinted in Hu Wei's mind, and he couldn't wave it away.

"I heard that you were treated well today, and you have eaten a lot of good things. Alas, my life was miserable, and I drank porridge three times a day. ”

Zhu Daneng complained as soon as he saw Hu Wei. It's really the same life, not to mention the previous things, this time he and Hu Wei went to do coolies together, and he also helped when he saved people, but people remembered Hu Wei and didn't remember him. It's the same when he was transferred to He Liangyu's side, Hu Wei did the paperwork, and he Zhu Daneng actually wanted to sweep the floor.

"Come on, what other good things have you not eaten, how are things going, is there any news?" Hu Wei snorted.

Zhu Daneng said: "It's a little bit of a check." The little boy didn't know what he was born into, anyway, listening to the meaning of those below, Rijkaard valued him very much and gave him the status of an envoy. Although the envoy was not an official in the Taiping Empire, he could meet Rijkaard directly, so almost everyone was polite to that guy. ”

"Special envoy?" Hu Wei muttered in his heart. He had already denied in his heart that the boy was related to Rijkaard, but listening to Zhu Daneng doing this, this possibility was still in place. Is there any possible answer other than this reason?

Zhu Daneng saw that Hu Wei was thinking about it for a long time and didn't answer, and couldn't help but snort: "It's just a little kid, what's the big deal, you don't need to do this." ”

Hu Wei frowned and said: "I didn't think it was a big deal before this child, but the more I got along, the more I felt that this child was weird." ”

Hu Wei said, telling Zhu Daneng about the boy asking his name several times, and Zhu Daneng frowned when he heard it, and said, "Have you seen you before?" But even if he saw you, there was no need to say something like that. ”

Hu Wei smiled bitterly: "It's because of this that I feel weird." Hey, what are you doing here?"

Li Fuzi saw Hu Wei and Zhu Daneng chatting from a distance, so he quickly quickened his pace, came to Hu Wei's face, and said breathlessly: "I guessed that you must be here, come with me." ”

Li Fuzi seemed to be a little used to it, and he stretched out his hand to pull Hu Wei to go with him. Hu Wei has always disliked holding hands with men the most, so he turned it over skillfully, didn't let Li Fuzi catch his hand, and asked: "Master, I've already eaten this meal, won't I go to eat again." ”

Li Fuzi rolled his eyes and said, "Where is there so much food to eat, it was the district chief who told you, come with me to see him." ”

"Oh, okay, let's go then. Hu Wei originally wanted to say that he knew the road when he went to see the district chief, so he didn't need Li Fuzi to lead the way. But looking back, people came from afar, and it was not so appropriate to step on someone's face like this, so it was better for everyone to walk together.

"Gu Yue, I'll go back to sleep first, and I'll talk to you tomorrow. Zhu Daneng shouted at Hu Wei's back. This was their previous code. Zhu Daneng is using code words to tell sΓΉ Hu Wei, he will go to check on the boy's affairs again tonight, and if he finds anything, he will tell him Hu Wei tomorrow.

"Okay, then you go to bed early!" (To be continued.) )
