Chapter 167: The Storm Rises Again
It is said that this pine and cypress and that Zhu Shuwen sat with their backs against the big tree, idle and short, and then heard a sound behind them, and quickly looked back. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
It turned out that Chen Zhi took Jinyiwei all the way to the tree, and stammered: "The two of you are so interested, chatting under this tree, who is this?"
Songbai hurriedly got up, pointed to Zhu Shuwen, who bowed his head and was silent, and said with a smile: "Brother Chen, this is Zhu Gongzi, who met at the city gate, no, we have become friends, by the way, you came to me so early, there will be nothing wrong, right?"
Chen Zhi pulled Songbai aside, and whispered in his ear: "There was an accident again last night, I heard that it was chased all the way to Hufu, this gang of gangsters is also murderous, if it wasn't for the soldiers at the door to find out, I'm afraid it would be bloodstained at the door of Hufu." ”
Listening to Chen Zhi stammer, Songbai then asked, "Who is that?
"Listening to the soldiers at the door, the person who was hunted down seemed to be a guest of the Hu Mansion, and the Hu Mansion was tight-lipped about this matter, and was not willing to mention it to the outside world. Chen said bluntly.
"As far as you know, who do you think should have done it? Who would dare to pluck the feathers on the tiger's head?" Songbai, holding his chin, asked.
"This capital and Hu Mansion are not in harmony, there should only be Yan Song's father and son, last time Yan Shifan secretly told Hu Lun Tongwei, and then the evidence was insufficient but he was demoted, and he lost the throne of the military department.
"Yan Song, father and son, where did they come from?" Songbai asked Chen Zhidao.
This Zhu Shuwen bowed his head and said, "Since Brother Songbai has something to do, then I will leave first, and we will meet another day." ”
Without waiting for Songbai to reply, this Zhu Shuwen quickly lowered his head and walked out of the woods, called Ruyi who was picking wildflowers on the side of the road, the two whispered a few words, and left in a hurry.
Songbai wanted to stop, but he couldn't open his mouth, looking at Songbai a little embarrassed, Chen Zhi stepped forward and asked: "Who is this Zhu Gongzi? Why do you keep bowing your head and not speaking, so strange?"
"As far as the first son in the imperial city is chivalrous, he is a friend who can be made, haha! Don't talk about it, I'll introduce you another day, let's get down to business, you said that someone dared to kill people in front of Hulun's mansion, and they came after him, in addition to Yan Song's father and son, could there be someone else?"
"The forces in the capital, in addition to Yan Song's father and son, there is also Liu Jing, the chief manager of the eunuch party, in addition to Prince Gong Zhu Zaichen, the new military secretary Guo Jiaxing, Taishi Zhang Fuzheng, and the rest are all some wall grass, which side has the power and which is in harmony, alas! When there is a conflict of interest, they are all possible, haha!" Chen Zhi slowly chattered and introduced Song Bai one by one.
"Then who do you think is most likely?" Songbai continued to ask, Chen Zhi scratched his head, thought for a long time, shook his head and sighed.
"These grievances and grievances in the officialdom, who can say it clearly, who is clear? Anyway, this side has fallen, and that side has risen again, one day for power, fighting back and forth, anyway, I have no desire to be light, don't say it, let's have two drinks in the champion building, and by the way, talk about the case in the palace. Chen Zhi stretched out his arm, led in front, and everyone went all the way to the inner city.
In this champion building, it was already full at this time, and people were talking about it, talking about the matter of Hu Mansion last night, and only then did they stop when they saw Jinyiwei coming in the door.
The little second brother was full of enthusiasm, nodded to everyone, and bowed his waist, and went upstairs to the private room with a smile.
The two men raised their glasses and poured their glasses, and after a few glasses of wine, they heard a sound outside the door, so they got up, opened the curtain, and looked out.
It turned out to be Wang Kai, the head of the military department, and the Jinyi guard stopped him outside the door and didn't let him in, Chen Zhi patted his subordinates on the shoulders, hugged his fists and said: "It turned out to be the head of the king?
Chen Zhi greeted Wang Kai in, waved his hand and said: "This is my sworn brother Songbai, we met last time, everyone don't be formal, please take a seat, I will say that this little two bowls of chopsticks are prepared a lot, it turns out that Lord Wang is coming?"
Wang Kai waved his hand and motioned his subordinates to wait outside the door, and then opened the door curtain and entered, and everyone shouted and greeted each other, then sat down and raised a glass to drink.
Chen Zhi peeled the raw rice and asked Wang Kai: "Lord in charge, this won't come to me for a drink? ”
Wang Kai drank the wine in the cup, wiped the corners of his mouth with his hand, stretched his head over, and whispered, "Have you heard about last night's incident?"
Chen Zhi stood up, picked up his wine glass and walked to the curtain, walked back again, and whispered: "Oh oh! Are you talking about the fact that last night, the doorman of Hu Mansion was chased and killed to Hu Mansion?"
Wang Kai nodded slightly, his eyes looked left and right, and then he came over and said: "I heard that I was chased and killed by dozens of men, this guest Xu Jingxuan, when I went to Hufu, I saw one or two sides, I heard that he was penniless, performing in the street circle, and the master passed by and took him back to the house, taking care of his food and lodging, but he did something shady and disgraceful, I don't know if it's true or not?"
"Lord Wang, you were recommended by Hu Lun, the secretary of the Ministry of War, to protect you, I'm afraid it's inappropriate to say this, right?" Chen Zhi asked with a stammering smile.
"Let's brother, I don't treat you as outsiders, I'm also talking about wine, don't take it seriously," Wang Kai hurriedly raised his glass and drank the wine.
"Just kidding, Lord Wang, don't listen to it, there are no outsiders here, let's just chatter in private, haha! Cheers!" Chen Zhi hurriedly got up, picked up his wine glass, and persuaded with a smile.
"This Xu Jingxuan you are talking about, is it a foreigner who came to this capital to participate in the martial arts?"
"Yes, it's that Xu Jingxuan, it seems that there is a scholar, called Sanbao or something, he goes out in the middle of the night, sleeps and rests in the house during the day, I also inadvertently, listening to the soldiers who guard the door chatting with each other, if it wasn't for the accident last night, how could I mention it, it's just that I participated in the martial arts in the past two days, and I rarely go out at night. Wang Kai didn't know whether he was really drunk or pretending to be drunk, so he said everything with a grunt, and secretly looked at the expressions of the two while drinking.
"How can this be? This brother has some ability, how can he go to Hufu to be a doorman, and he still goes out at night, this is not stealing chickens or touching dogs, is what you said true?" asked Songbai with some doubts.
I only heard the sound of gongs outside the champion building, Songbai and others immediately went to the window, the crowd on the street below was crowded, all rushed downstairs, only to see the crowd gathered together, pointed and pointed, and everyone came downstairs.
Songbai pushed away the crowd and squeezed in, and there was a woman lying on the ground, with blood flowing from her mouth and nostrils.
Suddenly, someone behind the pine and cypress patted his shoulder, and then he looked back, but he didn't see a figure, and he wondered for a while......
