Chapter 59: Chess to the Midgame (12)
"Brother Yue thinks that Sikong Gu has the support of the government behind him?"
After a long time, Hu Yuncai raised his head slightly, and glanced at him at the faint light of the lantern in Yue Tuxue's hand. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Yue Tuxue's expression was the same as Fang Cai's side, ordinary, just with a hint of a smile on his skin.
"What do I think, it's important for Brother Hu?"
Hu Yun was stunned, and after half a ring, he smiled and patted his head, and the crisp sound was exceptionally clear in the secluded alley.
"Indeed, what Brother Yue thinks has nothing to do with me. It's just that why do you want to break this point to the younger brother? If Sikong Gu has the support of the government behind him, then it is not difficult to explain all his actions in Yangzhou, but this also means that Yangzhou and Jiangning will be controlled by the imperial court. Telling the little brother this, what are the benefits for the Jiangnan League?"
Yue Tuxue shook her head, her face became more solemn: "For the Jiangnan League, there may not be any benefit, but for Brother Hu, at least it will not let Brother Hu take his life here." Of course, what Fang Cai said is just a little speculation on my part, how to think about it, it depends on why Brother Hu came this time. ”
"Oh, Brother Yue knows very well what the little brother is doing when he infiltrated Jiangning this time? When did the Jiangnan League install such a powerful informant inside my Divine Gate?"
Hu Yun was half shocked and half angry at Yue Tuxue's words, shocked that Yue Tuxue obviously knew the purpose of coming to Jiangning this time, and the anger was that Yue Tuxue's "pointing" meaning was too strong, and he was a "Hu brother", as if he regarded himself as a junior. Since Hu Yun met Yang Feiqiu in his life, he has gradually become disgusted with some condescending people, and at this moment, he is naturally faintly dissatisfied with the attitude of this old friend and the current enemy, and the root of this dissatisfaction is the inexplicable arrogance in Hu Yun's heart.
Yue Tuxue didn't seem to hear the mockery in Hu Yun's words, turned his head slightly, looked towards the end of the alley, and then held the lantern and nodded, and said, "Brother Hu is also here for this corpse, right?"
That corpse, it was Xu Tianchi who was still half a minute of warmth on his body, and Xu Tianchi, who was hovering above by flies at the moment, and beside Xu Tianchi, there were two bodies that were obviously dragged over.
Unlike Xu Tianchi, the two bodies already emitted a foul smell, and it stands to reason that even in summer, this corpse should not decompose so quickly. The flies and rats attracted by this stench were buried with the three corpses.
"This corpse is the evidence of Sikong Gu's crime, right? It is the same as Sikong Gu's methods in Yangzhou, this Sikong Gu seems to be smart, but in fact he is stupid and stupid like a pig, if the Situ family is smart, he will never fall for Sikong Gu's plan. ”
Hu Yun's disdain for Sikong Gu was fully revealed, but when Yue Tuxue heard it, he sighed and said: "Brother Hu can see it, but if you are Situ Lou, how will you deal with Sikong Gu's trick? You know, the government is not on your side, and Zhan Yunqin is the most important evidence." More than 30 people died on Sikong Gu's side, and the gold of Sikong family in the inn under the name of Situ family was found again, and now there is this Xu family son and two arresters as evidence of the crime. Whether it is according to the laws of the imperial court or according to the rules of the rivers and lakes, the Situ family will not be able to escape this catastrophe. ”
After speaking, I don't know if I really feel that Sikong Gu's methods are fierce, or pity the Situ family for being calculated, Yue Tuxue sighed again, and in this sigh, Hu Yun heard more helplessness. This helplessness is not so much the helplessness of a bystander, but more like a sigh of powerlessness.
"Is this catastrophe inevitable?" Hu Yun gritted his teeth and clenched his fist against his forehead, "Isn't the 'bitter meat trick' so easy to use?
"You say that Sikong Gu regards the people of the rivers and lakes as fools?" Yue Tuxue was slightly surprised, seeing that Hu Yun glanced at him in confusion, and quickly retracted it, he smiled bitterly: "If Brother Hu saw the plan used by Sikong Gu in Jiangning, why didn't he tell the world and tell the entire Jianghu that Sikong Gu was really framing Yangdaomen? If Yang Daomen was really framed and killed by Sikong Gu, then wouldn't it be natural to avenge their grievances?"
Without waiting for Hu Yun to answer, Yue Tuxue's deep voice suddenly became a little high-pitched: "The people of the rivers and lakes are in the rivers and lakes, can they change everything just by their momentary words? Brother Hu, you also know very well that if the Shenmen spoke out for the Yangdaomen at this time, what kind of attitude would the sects in the rivers and lakes that had nothing to do with the Shenmen, and even those who had little contact with the Shenmen, put on? Since the matter of the Yangdaomen has become a fact, the best way for the Shenmen to ensure that they are not fundamentally hurt by the aftermath of the Yangzhou change is to draw salaries from the bottom of the kettle. What Jin Youde, what Lu Niyu, that has nothing to do with Shenmen, even if the Lord of Jinmen and Brother Hu are friends for eight worships, before the Jianghu people, Brother Hu needs to express his position, and he probably has to scold Jin Youde to protect the reputation of Shenmen, right?"
At this point, Yue Tuxue laughed again, "Brother Hu, Brother Hu, Yue thought that we would drink at the same table ten years ago, and after ten years, although we are in different positions, we can also drink and talk happily, who knows that Yue has walked two steps faster, and Brother Hu is still just staying in the spirit of the rivers and lakes, speaking of which, it can be regarded as impermanence in the world, right?"
"You ......" Hu Yun was humiliated by Yue Tuxue, although he was angry, he also knew that after fighting with Friday, he didn't have much internal strength left, and after he had just made a move with Yue Tuxue, there was even less internal force that could be mentioned at the moment, and he didn't do any entanglement at the moment, and turned around and left a sentence: "Brother Yue, we will have a period later." ”
As Hu Yun exerted light skills and went away, the words "there will be a period later" could only drift into Yue Tuxue's ears with the sound of the wind, and Yue Tuxue, who was holding a lantern, looked at the direction of Hu Yun's departure with a pair of eyes, and among the dark pupils, there seemed to be a trace of falling leaves on a summer night. Summer is a time when the grass and trees are abundant, and the sadness of falling leaves is about as inopportune as the blooming of autumn chrysanthemums, right?
"Are you coming out? This friend, I heard this ......."
As soon as these words came out, Yue Tuxue heard a few sounds coming from another alley, and behind the half-collapsed earthen wall, it seemed that there was no half of a figure.
"The right choice, I'm afraid this is Sikong's lone subordinate, right? This guy is really not simple. ”
Leaving this unspoken emotion, Yue Tuxue stared at the three corpses for a long time, and I don't know if it was because of boredom or the noise of flies, or the stench emitted by the two corpses, Yue Tuxue finally left this alley.
That might have been a good thing for the three corpses, for no one would disturb their silence until dawn.
