Chapter 410: Mountain Rain is Coming (2)
Liu Kun looked at Zhao Laosi, who was escorted away, and his heart was full of feelings.
They are actually all natives of Langfu, and they grew up wearing a pair of pants. It's just that Liu Kun resolutely chose to leave home to win a background when Zheng Pingfei recruited soldiers, while Zhao Laosi chose to stay in Langfu to take care of their elderly parents. Zhao Laosi has actually done a lot for the old Liu family over the years, so during this period of time, Liu Kun has taken good care of Zhao Laosi's family, and he will share half of Zhao Laosi when distributing military rations.
However, Zhao Laosi's family of six, the family's food stock was eaten up as early as a month ago, how could Liu Kun give him a potato or half a flatbread a day to share so many people. Long-term hunger made Zhao Laosi choose to take risks.
In fact, he is also responsible, if he hadn't inadvertently revealed that there were not many people on duty tonight, how could he have made Zhao Laosi move his mind that he shouldn't have and brought so many people to grab food.
Liu Kun stood on the side and looked at Zhao Laosi who was escorted away, this worried look happened to be looked at by Zheng Pingping, and he directly ordered someone to call Liu Kun in front of him.
Liu Kun is also a veteran who has followed Zheng Pingfei to the north and south for many years, so naturally he will not hide half of it, and then confessed what he and Zhao Laosi knew, but concealed the fuse of his disclosure of tonight's troop deployment. Not for anything else, but after this incident, Zhao Laosi was determined to die, and if his wife and children were not taken care of by Liu Kun, I am afraid that they would not be able to live long in this troubled world.
However, who is Zheng Pingping, from Liu Kun's words and deeds, he has already figured out something else. He ordered Mu Zheng to deal with the scene, and then took Liu Kun back to the Hou Mansion.
As soon as he arrived at the door, Zheng Pinghong saw several tall horses tied to the manger at the front door, and immediately knew who was coming.
"Your Highness, it's been a great job. ”
Zheng Pingping, who strode into the Hou Mansion, really saw Wei Jin, the Nine Emperor Princes, who had just arrived, and was followed by Lei Qianxing, the commander of the guards, and Sun Qi, the prince of Qiankun. Wei Jin shook his head slightly at Zheng Pingfei and said: "Your soldiers still only listen to you after all, it's useless for me to go, I can only go to stabilize the people in the city for you, it's nothing." ”
After shaking their heads, Wei Jin and Zheng Pingfei walked into the back study, and Wei Jin immediately put on a fierce face and said fiercely: "Do you think those people did this?"
"Possibly, but you'll have to check it to find out. ”
Zheng Pingfei's words were extremely cautious, at this moment, in addition to Zheng Pingfei and Wei Jin, only Lei Qianxing and Gongsun Qi were left in the study, and even the guards of the Hou Mansion were waved back by Zheng Pingping. Zheng Pingphong said that Liu Kun had been recruited, and said to him: "Tell me everything you know about tonight, and I can be lenient with you." ”
"Yes. ”
Liu Kun knew that he couldn't hide it from Zheng Pingping, so he put it on
All the things about himself and Zhao Laosi were explained. Even the conversation between the two did not fall a word. Wei Jin and Zheng Pingfei immediately felt that something was wrong, even if Liu Kun inadvertently informed Zhao Laosi of tonight's manpower allocation, it would be difficult for Zhao Laosi to formulate such a careful plan in such a short period of time, if it weren't for Wang Yachuan's quick reaction, they would almost have succeeded.
"I'm afraid there's someone else behind me. Gongsun Qi stroked his beard, and the corners of his eyes closed slightly, which was the way he was used to thinking about it.
Wei Jin frowned: "Come on, bring that Zhao Laosi up!"
......
Zhao Laosi's rhetoric really proved the speculation in everyone's hearts, and after he learned the news, he told the short man who actually killed Dong Laoqi, and the short man said that Zhao Laosi would wait, and he ran quickly to an alley in the east of the city. When the short man came back, he brought a middle-aged man who looked like a Taoist, and then when Zhao Laosi followed the middle-aged man to a small courtyard, he found that hundreds of people had gathered here, most of them were refugees who had fled from all over the country, all of them were yellow and thin, and they had obviously not been fed for many days.
"This is the man! I'm afraid this person is the ghost in the city we are looking for!"
Wei Jin made a decisive guess, and the others also drank it, but when Wei Jin wanted to send people to search in the east of the city, he was directly stopped by Gongsun Qi. Gongsun Qi's eyes opened and he muttered, "This person is extremely cunning, if I were him, he would never choose to stay in that courtyard." At this time, our past is tantamount to scaring the snake, no. ”
"What does Mr. Gongsun mean?" It was Gongsun Qi who was sensitive to the movement of ghosts in the city, which reminded Wei Jin and Zheng Pingfei to pay attention to this matter. Wei Jin knew that Gongsun Qi must have already made a fortune when he said this, and his heart suddenly settled down.
"The focus of this operation is to provoke the contradiction between the military and the people in our Langfu City, and under the blockage of the dwindling grain stock in Langfu City, this contradiction will inevitably surface~ The water, I have to say that this person's grasp of the timing is indeed accurate. ”
Gongsun Qi took a sip of the tea bowl beside him, and continued: "This matter has already had some effect, then the next thing is to wait for the situation to ferment, he will definitely have the next action, we should be under martial law in the name of searching for fleeing criminals at this moment, and then secretly send people to search for their whereabouts, we should be able to gain something." By the way, what about the short man who hooked up with the Taoist priest?
Gongsun Qi asked this, which immediately made Zheng Pingfei come back to his senses, it seems that he had not seen a short man in that group of people before!
"That guy ran away, and after killing someone, he ran away with a bag of grain on his back! The family lives in the west of the city, I can take the adults to find it!"
Zhao Laosi, who was kneeling on the ground, heard the words of everyone, and he didn't know that he was being used as a gun, and he was already determined to die, and he was only thinking about sins and merits at the moment, hoping that Zheng Ping would make peace
Wei Jin looked at the face of this credit and bypassed his wife and children.
Gongsun Qi's eyes rolled, and he immediately bounced up from his seat: "Quick, go to the west of the city, that Taoist priest will definitely kill people!"
There was a sudden soft sound from the rubble on the roof of the study, and a figure vanished.
====I'm back with the dividing line====
"you, I'm back, look what I've brought back!"
A short figure climbed over the broken wall and flew towards the hall. It was pitch black inside the hall, and there wasn't even a light lit, but there was a noise inside, as if someone had gotten out of bed. A heavy small sack was protected in the arms of a figure who climbed over the wall like a baby, as if he was afraid that a pair of hands suddenly stretched out in the darkness and snatched the small sack away.
The figure ran to the door in three steps and raised his hand to knock on the door, but perhaps it was too strong, and the wooden door creaked and was pushed open by him, and the corner of the door hit the inner ~ wall made a bang, which startled the person.
"Damn it, didn't you say that I would let you lock the door after I went out, why didn't you obey, what if a thief came in!" the man muttered, hurriedly paced into the house, and plugged in the door bolt with his backhand, only then did he breathe a sigh of relief, and was about to speak, but he tasted a strange smell, which made his stomach suddenly turn over for a while, and he almost vomited.
"Damn, fuck you, where did you come from, why don't you go to the yard and kill it!"
The short man entered the house, and his temper seemed to grow because of this, and he groped in the darkness to put the small sack on the table, and was about to find a bowl of water to drink, but he felt something stumble under his feet, and the whole person fell down at once, and the smell stained his whole face.
This is...... Blood! It's exactly the same as the ones on my hands before!!
"What's going on,, you ......"
The short man subconsciously turned around and probed his feet, but only touched ~ a piece of coldness.
There was a sudden sharp pain in his back, and the short man shouted in pain, but his mouth and nose were sealed by a big hand in the dark!
As he was dying, the darkness in the room was gradually dispelled by a dim light of oil, and the short man collapsed in a pool of blood, finally seeing everything in the room. His wife fell at his feet, and his two children were not far away, and the blood that flowed out of them had already coagulated. A middle-aged man who looked like a Taoist priest stood in front of the short man with a lamp, and his tone was cold and not half emotional: "See it clearly? ”
The short man muttered, but in the end he couldn't get out half a word. At the same time that the figure of the Taoist priest jumped out of the window, the short man also highlighted his last breath.
