Chapter 678: Returning Home One after Another
"Grandpa Hai, Uncle General, I'm glad you all suffered on the road. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info "Ding Kui came out neatly dressed to meet the whole world and Shi General.
"We just go out for a walk, not to mention the hardships, the distance we walk every day is less than half of the regular march, compared to the young master, we are old. The emotion of the whole world is aimed at Ding Kui's performance in the army.
"Young master, why don't you have any archers by your side?" General Shi was very serious.
"Why does Uncle Jiang ask that?" Ding Kui thought about it, and there were indeed no archers around him recently.
"I've seen that carriage, and the elite archers and above can see that there is a problem, if there are archers by your side, how can you put yourself in danger?" Shi Jiang was quite competent in this offering, and when he heard that someone had assassinated Ding Kui, he immediately went to inspect the destroyed carriage.
Most of the sneak attacks and assassinations are done by archers, Shi Jiang is a good player, someone uses this method to him or the people around him, as a master he can't bear it, it is obvious that his peers are jealous.
"Grandpa Qian is in Juyang City, Xiaohua can't go through the teleportation array, it is estimated that he will not be able to reach the capital until later, and it just so happens that there are no archers by my side recently. Ding Kui said this is tantamount to admitting that General Shi is right.
"I'm here, Jiang Nan and they don't have to stay, but there seems to be something more in the family, I don't know who did it?" Shi Jiang keenly discovered the early warning mechanism, but he didn't understand its principle for the time being.
After all, it was researched by the great archer, and even the sunset archer was not so easy to understand.
"Oh, that's the mechanism developed by the Equipment Department, I have the drawings here, I'll show you later. Well, there is really no need to trouble Jiang Nan and them, treat them to a good meal tonight, and then send them back. ”
Don't look at the Guohou Mansion There are only two squadron guards, but the leader of the team is the former 75th Division Commander Quan Sihai, plus the "life-seeking gaze" General, these two people alone can sweep the two hundred guards led by Qiu Qiu, and the rest of the people can crush Jiang Nan and the Jiang family's guards, so it is safer to have them than before.
"Hehe, all the brothers and young generals are here, there is no need to invite Jiang Nan and them to eat well, I will let them go home in a while. Jiang Nai walked into the study with a smile.
Recently, this old man has been in and out of Ding's Mansion by himself, and no one has stopped him anywhere except the backyard, and no one has reported him if he doesn't come to the study.
"No, no, no, I told Long Yan that she would cook herself tonight and said that she would treat everyone. Ding Kui allowed Jiang Nai to enter the study without notification, and this Jiang Mansion housekeeper helped him a lot.
"Oh, the reward of the young lady, count them as a blessing. Who just thought that the young master was not an archer?" Jiang Nai squinted at General Shi.
"Ah, hehe, it's a young general, which makes Naibo smile. General Shi hurriedly smiled.
"Well, it was my negligence to talk about this matter, I didn't expect that someone would ignore the face of the king and assassinate the young master at such a time, so I specially asked Wan Ban and Wan Yu to hurry over, and now I am waiting for the young master to meet outside the house. ”
Jiang Nai asked Jiang Li to resign because of Ding Kui's assassination, thinking that the housekeeper should bear the greatest responsibility, but Jiang Li resolutely refused to allow it, and tried his best to keep him, so he reluctantly stayed as the chief housekeeper of Jiang Mansion.
"Wan Ban and Wan Yu, but buy Bo?" General Shi respects Wan Mai very much, especially after Wan Mai was injured protecting Ding Kui.
"That's right, they are Wanmai's grandchildren, not very strong but can be trusted. Jiang Nai nodded.
"Hehe, okay, we are short of archers, how can the juniors of Brother Wan not be trusted! Young master, I'll bring them in. "The whole four seas are the commanders of the guards, so they have already accepted Wanban and Wanyu.
"Uncle Hai, slow down, let's go, I have recently cultivated and realized something, and I want to communicate with young people. "Shi Jiang means to point out the descendants of Wanmai.
The whole world didn't insist on hearing what General Shi said, in terms of identity, the worship was higher than that of the commander-in-chief, and General Shi went to pick it up and seemed to have a higher standard.
The Wan brothers are a few years older than Ding Kui, Wan Ban is a little older, tall and long-armed, loud voice, and pays great attention to rules in words and deeds; Wan Yu is a little smaller than Wan Ban, and there is shrewdness between his eyebrows and eyes, which is in line with his grandfather's temperament of "treacherous demons".
The two brothers obediently followed behind General Shi, who was unfathomable in their eyes, and after entering the gate, the Protector Mansion worshipper kept asking about their cultivation, and from time to time pointed out their shortcomings, and could give convincing opinions.
Ding Kui is very enthusiastic about the Wan brothers, unlike the two of them as guards, they are almost like brothers, the Wan brothers are flattered and show their loyalty, it seems that the family education is strict and can clearly recognize their identity.
The children of the indigenous dukes have been under strict control recently, and the heads of the families have asked them to move under the noses of their elders, and today's gathering is concentrated in the Tantai family.
"Really, we didn't do Ding Kui's assassination, we are always suspicious and suspicious of what we are doing?" Ling Huyu's attempt to embezzle the family's money was revealed, and he was recently trained very badly, if it wasn't for the summoning of Taixiu, he would still be grounded and locked up at home.
"Are you sure it has nothing to do with this? We can find a way to suppress him, but we must not hurt his life. Nangong Ping was very worried that his companion would be hot-headed for a while and do something legally intolerable.
"It's definitely not us, the Tantai family can't find that kind of assassin, I heard that the assassin leader has a 'disobedience Gu' on his body, and that thing can't be cultivated by the Tantai family. "The path of the Taixiu is very wide, and the confidential information can be known.
Nangong Ping looked at Ling Huyu with puzzled eyes.
"Do you even doubt me? The Linghu family has never dealt with others, that is, I only want to deal with Ding Kui when I am with you, I can get some money from the family, and I have no more power. Ling Hu Yu was like a cat with its tail stepped on, and the whole person almost jumped up.
"Nangong, don't guess, don't we know this ability, don't our family know who did it, his family will definitely send him away from the capital, and sooner or later someone will find out if he stays here. "Tan Tai Jin couldn't stand Nangong Ping's eyes, "The biggest problem now is how to explain to the eldest princess, she hasn't seen me recently, and I have been rejected several times when I want to enter the palace to see her, maybe she suspects that we did it." ”
"I've summoned you here today to find a way to solve this problem. "Tan Taixiu's face is ugly.
The eldest princess is not seen as a very serious warning, so that the eldest princess can not see the relatives on the side of the mother, except for herself, she is the king.
Who is the most powerful person in this country? Naturally, it is none other than Shao Diandan, and if he is unhappy, that is the most serious problem in the world.
What he was worried about was not that the eldest princess had misunderstood, but that the king was unhappy.
"I'll go see Ding Kui, he shouldn't suspect me of harming him. "Nangong Ping's idea is very straightforward.
"What are you going to tell him? What are you going to tell him about the auction? Don't forget that you also paid a penny. Ling Huyu felt that Nangong wanted to betray him.
"Now that something like this has happened, do you think the Lu Chamber of Commerce can still keep it secret for us? The Espionage Department will not track down the people who did right with Ding Kui at the auction? The people related to Ding Kui that day must have been found out clearly, and others won't know about it if we hide?" Nangong asked rhetorically.
"Well, we weren't the only ones bidding with him that day. Ling Huyu's reason can't even convince himself.
"Actually, you can try it, you go and say that we were playing with him, and it's a big deal to give him that box of 'Ice Fragrance Snow Muscle Pills', just say that we deliberately snatched it down and gave it to him as a gift. Tan Tai Jin gritted his teeth and said.
"Yes, anyway, the 'Ice Fragrance Snow Muscle Pill' also fell into the hands of the eldest princess in the end, so it's okay to give it to him now. "We pretend to be good friends with him and learn more about him, so that there will be no more auctions like this in the future." ”
"I don't want to be friends with that bun. "Ling Huyu doesn't want to play false.
"If you don't want to, you can not go, Nangong will go to the bottom first, and if it is convenient, ask him to come out to meet. "Taixiu doesn't force Linghu Yu.
The hottest thing in the town of Beijing in August is not that Ding Kui was stabbed, but the spread of mahjong in the circle of high-class nobles, and the Ding Kui incident has become a booster for the spread of mahjong.
The price of tinder jade continued to rise, and the workshops designated by the Jiang family were buying in large quantities, and they were bought almost as soon as they arrived, and the tinder jade on the market was swept away.
The senior craftsman of the equipment department is worthy of superb craftsmanship, and actually made out the engraving of different textures in four directions, that is, from the four directions to touch the mahjong cards will have different touches, if you do not lift the cards to see, you can not determine what kind of cards it is from one direction.
Mahjong cards soared from the initial price of 1,000 gold coins to 2,000 gold coins, and it was still in short supply, which was not unrelated to the secret promotion of An Guogong and Wei Guogong.
Most of the elders of the Senate will make an appointment for a game after the meeting, and even some issues will be put on the mahjong table, and whoever wins will listen to whom.
Jiang Li and Long Dang, who are skilled in card skills, are the big winners in the Senate for the time being, Yang Zhao and Kong Ci are not to be outdone, and the card art is progressing rapidly, and there is a tendency to surpass the first two.
On this day, Ding Qi rushed back to the capital with Ding Kun and other entourages, and found that the front of the Protector's Mansion was bustling, and the door was like a city, and he almost didn't dare to enter his home.
"Why didn't the old man come back without prior notice? The old slave didn't go out of the city to greet him, forgive his sins, forgive his sins. He saw the head of the family wandering in front of the door, and hurriedly came up to pay respects.
Ding Qi pointed to the various carriages in front of the door and asked, "I heard that someone was stabbing Kui'er on the road, and I was in a hurry to come back to take a look, so I didn't pass the news to you, it doesn't matter if you don't answer it." What's going on? Do all these people know I'm coming back today?" he couldn't even recognize the badges on some of the carriages.
"Hehe, they came to find the young master, and they didn't know that you were back, so let the young master explain to you in a while, it's not clear here. He lame called the people to open the middle door to welcome the return of the head of the family.
