Chapter Eighty-Six: Swift as a Spiral
"What do you think of that one?"
Yuedi asked.
Jin Peng tapped the rim of the wine glass with his fingertips and didn't answer for a long time.
"Go up and say?"
Yuedi nodded.
got up and said hello to Liu Ruiying.
Liu Ruiying took Hua Nong and Jin Peng to Yuedi's room.
"They live right next door. ”
Liu Ruiying pointed to the wall in the room and said.
"How good is that room?"
Jin Peng asked.
"It's a bit bigger than here. At least there's a back room. ”
Liu Ruiying said.
"Where's the bathroom?"
Jin Peng asked.
He loves to take a bath.
So the most important thing is the bathroom.
"I don't see it. Why don't you go and ask?"
Liu Ruiying said jokingly.
Yuedi patted the table, very impatient.
Liu Ruiying immediately became serious.
But Jin Peng still looked like he was giggling.
He and Jin Peng also became acquainted.
It's okay to make some innocuous jokes.
"Can there be a shape?"
Liu Ruiying said.
"Good fellow...... It turns out that he is Sun Deyu! No wonder your face is so ugly!"
Jin Peng said.
"I don't know who that one is, how can you make me serious?"
Jin Peng said.
"King Zhenbei, Shangguan Xuyao. The person who followed him was the worship of Zhenbei Palace, Sun Deyu. ”
But Jin Peng didn't know about these changes.
He saw that Yuedi did not answer, but instead tightened his teeth, and knew that his joke could only end here.
Then he coughed lightly a few times, slightly concealing the embarrassment of the atmosphere, and then sat down at the table and took out a map from the placket of his clothes.
He knows all about the past of the Moon Flute.
is also very clear about the entanglement between her and Sun Deyu.
In fact, Yuedi has already put it down calmly, and her attitude towards Sun Deyu has been decided, since the last time the sword opened a line of sky.
Jin Peng said.
Yuedi and Liu Rui looked at the map carefully.
The picture is centered on the Hongzhou capital city, and Jin Peng drew a large circle with bright red cinnabar.
This map is not the entire map of the Zhenbei King Domain hanging in the station building of Yangwen Town, but it is a map of Hongzhou.
On the map, Jin Peng used various brushstrokes to mark the situation of several people and horses intertwined with each other.
"What I want to say is in this picture. ”
The most colorful place on the map is the mine they are in.
Mine line connection, snare ring.
Qingfu, Hongzhou, Investigation Division, Grassland Palace, Zhenbei Palace.
Next to the castle, there is also a cinnabar circle, which is slightly smaller, but there is still a part of the circle that intersects with the castle.
The interior is also specially marked with a pen 'Qingfu' even the word.
The rest of the smoke and dust, Yue Di and Liu Ruiying did not look at it.
This picture may seem dazzling, but in fact it is something that everyone has known for a long time.
It's just that the information in my mind is more intuitively marked in the picture.
"And what do you want me to do?"
Led by this harmless force, they have already arrived at the mine, or are on their way to this place.
"You can send us away just by putting a picture out?"
Yuedi said after reading it.
Shangguan Xuyao, the king of Zhenbei, stared into the same distance and said.
"What's the matter?"
Jin Peng asked.
Jin Peng asked.
"I'm thinking about something. ”
Yuedi stood up and walked to the window.
Jin Peng and Liu Ruiying exclaimed in unison.
No one could have imagined that Yuedi's heart would retreat......
However, with their understanding of the Moon Flute, these two people also knew that the Moon Flute must have her own considerations when she said this.
"Let's check the Division, can we stop here. ”
Yuedi said.
"That's it?!"
Liu Ruiying said.
For the beginning of this matter, no one has more say than him.
"Jing Yao killed the building chief, it was an unintentional move. It's just to get an identity that can walk freely in the Zhenbei King's Domain. Who else but the people of the Investigation Division could do this? The only variable is that you are rushing back to the Middle Capital. But in the situation at that time, Jing Yao was already ready to fly, and he had to send it! Even if he met the Zhenbei King himself, he had to make a move. ”
"In the final analysis, this matter is a private matter of the Zhenbei Royal Domain. We shouldn't have interfered. ”
Yuedi said.
"But when Jing Yao killed a station captain of our Investigation Division, he had already firmly involved us. ”
If Liu Ruiying had been in a hurry for two hours, and had slightly staggered the pair of rhyming and silver-paying armies, the turmoil in the future would have been much smaller than now.
"But don't forget! The headquarters of the Investigation Department of the Central Capital City has received a message from Shangguan Xuyao, the king of Zhenbei. It was he who personally opened his mouth and asked our Investigation Department to help assist in the investigation. ”
Jin Peng said.
Yuedi said.
Liu Ruiying nodded.
That was indeed the case that day.
The subsequent loss is no longer a game between the Investigation Division and Jing Yao.
It is a personal grudge between Jin Peng and this mysterious force in the mine.
He wouldn't let his men die in vain.
The building manager who died was a drunken man.
If you die, you will die, and for the Investigation Division, it is beneficial and harmless.
But Liu Ruiying, who arrived at the mine first, took Jin Peng's subordinates and the people of Yangwen Town to investigate the building.
"Shangguan Xuyao, the king of Zhenbei, is here, and we have no reason to stay here. ”
Yuedi said unrelentingly.
It seems that he is determined to leave.
People live only for peace of mind.
If he couldn't let the matter of this mine come to light, how could he give an explanation to his comrades under Jiuquan?
If he listened to the words of the moon flute and returned like this, he would not be at ease no matter what.
Liu Ruiying knew Jin Peng's feelings for Yuedi.
So he never thought that he would see Jin Peng slapping the table like this, arguing with Yuedi.
"But...... We have also received a clear order from the headquarters of the Central Metropolitan Investigation Department, so that we will spare no effort to assist in the thorough investigation of this robbery of money. ”
"You are the governor of the headquarters of the Central Capital Investigation Division, and Liu Ruiying is also the provincial flag of the headquarters. If you want to leave, I have no right to force you to stay. But my people died in this mine, and it was my people who died in the station building of the Investigation Division in Yangwen Town, and I, as the head of the building, if I left like this, how could I explain to the fourteen brothers I brought this time? What is the point of me coming to the mine again? Is it just to drink the turbid wine and eat the rotten meat?"
Jin Peng said.
It's a-for-tat confrontation with the moon flute.
After all, at present, he can only be regarded as Liu Ruiying's nephew, and he has not yet entered the gate of the Investigation Division.
"The gang in the middle capital city has no idea what's going on here. But as you said, I'm the Governor of the Investigation Division. The highest office under the Commander. So I can make decisions based on the variables that happen in the current situation!"
Yuedi said.
Liu Ruiying said.
At this moment, only he can stand up and be a peacemaker.
Although Hua Nong has a heart, he is powerless.
After finishing speaking, Yuedi put his right hand behind his back and touched it from his waist.
"Smack!"
A token of the governor of the Central Capital Investigation Division was slapped on the table by the moon flute.
"In addition, even if the headquarters of the Central Capital Investigation Division has a clear requirement for this time, I, as the governor, can abolish it immediately from now on!"
Yuedi continued.
This was said by looking at Liu Ruiying.
Yuedi said.
Liu Ruiying pouted......
Although it is true to say this, but the governor's token is clearly buckled in the middle of the table, isn't this a force to oppress people or what?
"Lord Governor is going to use his official position to oppress people?"
Jin Peng looked at the token and said with a sneer.
"I'm not oppressing you with my official position, I'm just telling you that I have such a right. If I were to be arbitrary, I wouldn't have asked you for your opinion on the matter beforehand. ”
But only he knew what kind of agitation was rolling in his chest at this moment.
At the end of the month, he didn't speak, but just picked up his own governor token on the table, and then used the corner of the token to knock the junction of the two cinnabar sources of Hongzhou and Qingfu on the map.
Jin Peng watched the movements of the moon flute and took a deep breath.
But even Liu Ruiying was very uncomfortable.
"I've already told me my reasons, what are the reasons I dare to ask the Governor?"
Jin Peng laughed angrily and asked kindly at the Moon Flute.
"He doesn't understand, don't you understand either?"
Yuedi said with his back to everyone.
Liu Ruiying and Jin Peng looked at each other, and no one knew who Yuedi was talking to.
Liu Ruiying frowned deeply, a little puzzled.
She knew that Yuedi had suddenly changed her mind, and she must have been so strong that she must have her concerns.
But what can be seen from the two red circles on the picture?
But this also made him suddenly realize!
At that time, Tang Ming, the governor of Dingzhou, in order not to end up with a bird hiding and a rabbit dead and a dog cooking, cooperated with his cronies He Youjian, the governor of the palace, and colluded with the forces of the grassland royal court, and directed and acted out a fake border war.
In the end, it was tragically discovered by Huo Wang, the king of Dingxi, and the entire Dingzhou suffered an unprecedented purge.
"How did He Youjian, the governor of Dingzhou, die? Why did Tang Ming, the governor of Dingzhou, end up separated from his flesh and blood? You watched Huo Wang, the king of Dingxi, come over like this murderous and heart-wrenching all the way, why didn't you have any precautions?"
Yuedi said.
Liu Ruiying knew this time that Yuedi Fang's words were said to him.
And now, the situation in Hongzhou at the moment is simply a copy of Dingzhou at that time.
Hongzhou Prefecture Tongwen listened to such a close relationship between Bai and Qingfu, I am afraid that he had long been suspicious of Shangguan Xuyao, the king of Zhenbei.
At present, the border army's salary and silver have been robbed by a minister of the grassland royal court on the boundary of Hongzhou.
Although Tang Ming still seems to be a state unification, he is still standing.
But his son was taken hostage and went to the palace.
The henchmen who had been cultivated were almost killed and replaced, and there was not one out of ten.
Huo Wang, the king of Dingxi, everyone knows that he is an iron-blooded character.
But under the idle appearance of Shangguan Xuyao, the king of Zhenbei, there is an extra layer of mystery.
But when a person seems to be thinking about everything, it is difficult to know what is most in his mind.
This sin is a small crime, but it is a lax governance.
To put it mildly, it can also be easily attached to the hat of treason.
The fate of Nawen Tingbai may not be much better than He Youjian.
"I hear you...... It's a lot of fun!"
Sun Deyu said with a smile.
"It's not that the Investigation Division is fun, it's that this female governor is fun!"
In the next house.
"Did you hear their arguments?"
Shangguan Xuyao, the king of Zhenbei, asked Sun Deyu.
"Does the prince mean this Hongzhou matter, or is it your own business?"
Sun Deyu asked.
"Okay, you Sun Deyu! You used to be straight and straight, and you couldn't turn a corner! Why did you let you become this big manager for a few days, but you can also play a sharp edge?"
Shangguan Xuyao, the king of Zhenbei, said.
"Do you think they have a point?"
Shangguan Xuyao, the king of Zhenbei, asked.
"I really didn't see that you were still a generalist!"
Shangguan Xuyao, the king of Zhenbei, said.
"Actually, you have already seen it, Lord Wang, otherwise, how could you let me take Xiaoli's position?"
Shangguan Xuyao, the king of Zhenbei, said with a smile.
"If you are not in your position, you are not in charge. In the past, I was just an offering, but I received the order of the prince and concentrated on completing it. But no one's account was bought, and no one's face was looked at. Now I have such a big deal in my hands, but I can't do it my own way like before......"
Sun Deyu shook his head with a smile and said.
Shangguan Xuyao, the king of Zhenbei, said.
Sun Deyu saw that the prince turned his face faster than turning a book, and he suddenly panicked.
"Hahaha! But like you, I'm a jack of all trades! For example, everyone knows that I love fishing, but few people know that I also like to ride and shoot! I always drink tea on weekdays, but I used to secretly drink at night when I was alone!"
Sun Deyu said.
When Shangguan Xuyao, the king of Zhenbei, heard this, his eyes froze, and the smile on his face disappeared in an instant.
"So, you seem to know me very well!"
Hao Duan sat there upright, didn't move his hands, didn't raise his legs, just said three or two words, and made himself so uneasy......
This kind of ability can't be made up for by reading a few more books or breaking through a few more layers of martial arts.
After King Zhenbei finished speaking, he waved his hand and asked Sun Deyu to retreat.
Shangguan Xuyao, the king of Zhenbei, looked at Sun Deyu's embarrassed appearance, but laughed again and said.
Sun Deyu was completely disturbed by this joy and anger.
It's just that in my heart, I feel that this prince is the prince.
If he leaves, Liu Ruiying will definitely go back to the central capital.
He can be regarded as worthy of the entrustment of Liu Jinghao, the king of Qingzhong.
It's just that such a good pawn of the Investigation Division, if the shield really leaves, it makes him a little reluctant......
He got up and closed the window, no longer looking into the distance.
At the same time, he also put away his ears, and the argument from next door had nothing to do with him at the moment.
Speaking of which, he really hoped that the Investigation Division would leave.
The Shangguan family is a giant family of the southern gatehouse.
But the requirements for the children in the family are extremely strict.
Shangguan Xuyao's childhood was spent in a rural farmhouse.
Shangguan Xuyao, the king of Zhenbei, is not disliked by drinking, but not good at drinking.
When he was young, he also swallowed cattle for the sake of those brothers.
However, after drinking half a cup, there was a feeling of smoking, as if ascending to the Nine Heavens.
Every time Shangguan Xuyao, the king of Zhenbei, drank wine, he would dream of making fruits and vegetables in the country courtyard and vegetable field.
But he knew that he might never have the chance to go back in his life.
Thinking of this, he sighed leisurely and took out a map as well.
Only people who have lived the most real life like this can be so unfazed.
It's also late spring, and summer is his favorite season.
Because every summer, all kinds of vegetables in the vegetable field begin to grow wildly due to temperature and vision, and the speed is so fast that it is too late to pick and eat.
When I saw that the flask was still full, I couldn't help but curse.
Before, he said it plainly, and asked Sun Deyu to drink all these two pots of wine.
The map he put out was the entire map of the Zhenbei Domain.
On the table, the flask from which he drank with Liu Ruiying before was still placed there.
Shangguan Xuyao, the king of Zhenbei, picked them up and put them aside.
"This guy ......!"
Shangguan Xuyao, the king of Zhenbei, called.
After he walked in, Shangguan Xuyao, the king of Zhenbei, turned the map in front of him in one direction and let him look at it.
The map was originally clean, but at this moment, the prince drew a lot of arrows and lines as marks.
It clearly marks the locations of the four states in the Zhenbei Domain, as well as the names of the states.
Shangguan Xuyao, the king of Zhenbei, looked at this map, but suddenly had some thoughts in his heart.
"Sun Deyu!"
Sun Deyu said.
"I'm not Huo Wang...... He likes to use murder to make a statement, but most of the respect he gets is fear. One day, that fear will be gone, and the backlash will be even more intense revenge. ”
Shangguan Xuyao, the king of the Pillow Earthquake North, said.
"What do you think?"
Shangguan Xuyao, the king of Zhenbei, asked.
"Lord Wang...... I think this trick is very subtle! But it can break the shackles of these state commanders in one fell swoop without shedding blood and using knives!"
The next room.
Neither Yuedi nor Jin Peng could make anyone waver and give in.
I have to say that the consideration of the moon flute is also somewhat reasonable.
"How's next door?"
"Still at ...... contention"
Sun Deyu said.
The two sides were silent for a long time, and Jin Peng took the lead in speaking.
"It's not that I have to go, it's that I command you all to leave!"
Yuedi said.
The existence of the Investigation Division is to investigate the safety of the world, not to let them intervene in the internal affairs of any royal domain.
The situation has developed to such an extent that it is far beyond the scope of the Investigation Division's purview.
"Are you going to go?"
Liu Ruiying ran to the window, glanced down and said.
"By car or on horseback?"
Yuedi asked.
"I ......"
Jin Peng was just about to speak, when there was a commotion in the hall downstairs.
"Looks like it's someone again!"
Yuedi then asked.
"Half have, half don't. ”
Liu Ruiying said.
"Horseback riding. ”
Liu Ruiying said.
"Signs right away?"
"It must be with the Hongzhou Prefecture Unified Mansion. ”
Yuedi said.
"Are you still leaving?"
He saw that some horses had the word "green" embroidered on the side of their saddles and on their bridles.
"The people from Qingfu are here. ”
Jin Peng said.
"Lord Wang, the people from Hongzhou have arrived. ”
Sun Deyu said.
"I remember that the message to Wen Tingbai was sent before we left, and their people have not come until now. ”
Jin Peng asked with a smile.
The moon flute was silent.
They are only separated by a wall from the house of Shangguan Xuyao, the king of Zhenbei, but at the moment, it is lively, you sing and I will appear!
"But they arrived later than we did...... Do you think this is a neglect of the king's life?"
Shangguan Xuyao, the king of Zhenbei, said.
"What the prince thinks, that's how it is. ”
Shangguan Xuyao, the king of Zhenbei, said.
"It was six days before our departure. ”
Sun Deyu said.
Jin Peng put away his map, turned around and walked out of the room.
The sound of closing the door sounded, and Yuedi looked up at Liu Ruiying, as if she had something to say, but it was not convenient for Hua Nong to be here.
"You're that direct?"
Sun Deyu said with a relaxed face.
Shangguan Xuyao, the king of Zhenbei, nodded, leaned back on the back of the chair, and closed his eyes.
From what he said just now, it was not difficult to find that all this seemed to be exactly the same as Yuedi had foreseen.
Liu Ruiying said.
Yuedi nodded after hearing this.
"Do you know why I decided to do this?"
Yuedi asked.
She thought that Liu Ruiying would show her intentions to Hua Nong, but she didn't expect him to say it directly.
"He doesn't understand any of that. ”
"I know very well that you want to make a contribution. Although I am a woman, I have come along the same path as you. ”
Yuedi said.
The words are very comforting.
Yuedi asked at Liu Ruiying.
"The main consideration is that the King of Zhenbei will use this as an excuse to make a move against Hongzhou. ”
Liu Ruiying said.
"Although I am the superintendent, when I left the Investigation Department that year, Wei Qilin inquired about me, and I retained my rank and was not appointed. ”
Yuedi said.
Liu Ruiying listened quietly.
"I am the provincial flag of the Investigation Division. I only obey the dispatch of the Central Investigation Division. ”
Liu Ruiying thought for a while and said.
After all, he rejected the moon flute.
"Not bad. It's not that I'm not taking my word for it, it's just that everything needs to be judged. If you are willing to leave, I can still go back with you to the Central Investigation Division to resume your life. ”
Yuedi said.
"I don't like to give up halfway!"
He knew that the Moon Flute had made up his mind.
"I remember when you first met, you said that you would end this money with me, and then it was also when you returned to the Central Investigation Division. ”
Liu Ruiying said.
The sound of the moon flute came from behind him, but it didn't stop his footsteps in the slightest.
It's just that when he completely walked out of the house, there was a slight sense of loss in his heart......
It's unbelievable that it's all happening.
Liu Ruiying arched his hand to this moon flute and said.
Then he turned around and prepared to leave.
"You're doing it yourself!"
Jin Peng said.
"At least there are people from Hongzhou Prefecture. As the Investigation Division, shouldn't we also go and hand over?"
Liu Ruiying said with a wry smile.
Liu Ruiying heard Jin Ye's voice coming from the hall below, so he prepared to go downstairs to say hello.
Unexpectedly, at the top of the stairs, a person stretched out his arm to stop Liu Ruiying.
"When other brothers and sisters meet, they think they want to reminisce about the past. What are you going to do with the fun?"
Through the gap in the staircase plywood, you can see the situation in the hall clearly.
Jin Ye, Wen Qiwen, Qing Xueqing, and the proprietress
The new ones are original, and Jin Peng has already been numbered one by one.
"No hurry...... No hurry...... I'll see if I'll see!"
Jin Peng bowed his hand and said.
The two of them crouched down.
Jin Peng said.
The person he was referring to was Li Junchang.
After Liu Ruiying agreed, she went back to her house.
It's just that Jin Ye has a person of the same age as him, but Jin Peng has no clue.
Judging by this person's behavior, he didn't look like the person who accompanied him, but he didn't appear in the previous investigation report of the Investigation Division.
"If someone doesn't know where to go, don't worry. ”
There was a smell in the room.
This person came to Liu Ruiying's house in the same sleeping position and in the same way as last time.
The difference is that this time he is healthy and vigorous.
After pushing the door in, there was a person lying on his bed.
Liu Ruiying saw two jars of wine on the table, a roast duck, a roast goose, and a roast chicken.
The sealing mud on the jar is very old, and it seems that this cellar must have been for a long time.
