Someone from the imperial court came to look for Young Master Zhao. Although they don't know what it was for, it was still worth discussing for a while. As a result, there are many more people at the gate of the government office—after all, if you want to bask in the sun on the street, it is better to find a place closer to Mr. Zhao, maybe you can meet him again.
Normally, so many people would never be allowed to gather at the gate of the government office, but this time Wen Liunian made an exception by waving his hand, and the secret guard was beaming with melon seeds and shared them among the crowd.
"Investigate Mr. Zhao's life experience?" The common people were very surprised when they heard this.
"Yes." The dark guard nodded, and said mysteriously, "It is said that there are inside stories, and even the emperor was alarmed." After all, there is no need to draft a bragging, and it is in such a place where the sky is high and the emperor is far away. How to make a gimmick.
Sure enough, the people were shocked. Cangmang City has inconvenient transportation and is located in a remote area. The biggest official I have ever seen in this life is the magistrate. Even the court officials have only heard it from storytellers, let alone mentioning the emperor. Can it be startled casually
So he really deserves to be Mr. Zhao... There is quite a distance between him and ordinary people!
It was passed on from ten to ten, and by the noon of the next day, almost all the people in the city knew that "Mr. Whether it's selling goods or frying vegetables, everyone is talking about it.
In the government office, Wen Liunian grinned after listening to the secret guard's report, "Thank you."
"My lord, you are welcome." The dark guard waved his hands again and again, doing this kind of thing is simply a piece of cake for us, it is really not too easy, and it is also very pleasant!
After the hidden guard left, Zhao Yue said, "It is estimated that the members of the Tiger Head Gang will hear the news within three days."
"So you have to be more careful recently." Wen Liunian said, "Don't let them take advantage of your loopholes."
Zhao Yue nodded, "I will." Not only will he raise his vigilance, but he will also protect you.
"Wait until tomorrow afternoon, let's go for a walk on the street again." Wen Liunian helped him straighten his clothes, "Although you have shown your face now, the people are still very curious about you, you need to go out a few more times to let everyone get used to it." Every time I go out, I am surrounded by crowds, so I have to adapt quickly.
Zhao Yue nodded, "Okay."
Wen Liunian smiled and said, "You can say whatever I say."
"Because what you said makes sense." Zhao Yue sat on the stone bench with him in his arms.
Lu Zhui passed by the door and couldn't help shaking his head.
Will he talk about love? At this time, shouldn't he say something like "I do everything because I like you"? What does "because you're right" mean.
In this way, the adults can also be abducted back to Chaomu Cliff, which can be regarded as a piece of shit luck.
Wen Liunian said, "I'll make an appointment with Vice General Pan later."
"Want to talk about suppressing bandits?" Zhao Yue asked.
Wen Liunian nodded, "After all, they all brought their troops, so it's not for nothing." It's really very good at taking advantage.
Zhao Yue said, "Aren't you afraid that Lord Inspector will be unhappy? After all, he belongs to him."
"I don't care about him." Wen Liunian squeezed his chin, "As long as the banditry can be eradicated as soon as possible, he should go if he is unhappy, and it has nothing to do with us."
Zhao Yue is funny.
"The people are the most important." Wen Liunian patted him on the shoulder.
Zhao Yue hugged him tightly, "Do you want to rest for a while? I didn't sleep well last night."
Wen Liunian yawned, "Alright."
Zhao Yue picked him up horizontally and strode towards the bedroom.
"Lord Wen." Pan Qing pushed the door open and came in.
Zhao Yue stopped.
Wen Liunian looked at Master Zhao in his arms, "What do you want me to do?"
Pan Qing took a step back calmly, "No."
"Then why did Vice General Pan come here?" Wen Liunian was puzzled, this place was clearly a private residence.
Pan Qing said, "Wrong way."
Wen Liunian: ...
Pan Qing turned his head and strode away, very knowledgeable and interesting.
He had only been to Cangwu City twice before, but they were all for errands, and each time he came and went in a hurry, and had never dealt with local officials. He only felt that since it was a poor place, the folk customs should be very conservative. I never expected it to be so open.
I have only been here for two days. On the first day, I saw Shang Yunze and Mu Qingshan being intimate and ambiguous, and on the second day, I saw Mrs. Wen and Zhao Yue Qingqing. It is a barren land, and in some respects, it is still very open!
"Deputy General Pan." Lu Zhui came over with the dark guard, "Have you gone to find your lord?"
Pan Qing quickly shook his head, "No, I went to the wrong door." He didn't see anything.
Lu Zhui immediately looked at him with a very clear look.
I bumped into a scene that I shouldn't have bumped into.
Pan Qing immediately felt a sense of familiarity with him.
Lu asked, "Would you like a drink?" It was as a shock.
Pan Qing nodded, "Naturally." Next time, if the adults make an appointment again, he will not look for it in advance even if he is killed, otherwise he will definitely be blind.
Lu Zhui patted him on the shoulder, and the two went to another small courtyard together.
The dark guards also followed happily. For things like drinking, everyone must come together!
In the bedroom, Wen Liunian said, "Vice General Pan seemed to be in a panic just now."
Zhao Yue was amused, "Ask knowingly."
Wen Liunian rubbed his nose, turned around and hugged the pillow to sleep.
But we clearly didn't do anything, but we were misunderstood in vain.
Slightly disadvantaged.
Zhao Yue leaned against the bed, wanting to wait for him to fall asleep before leaving.
After half a stick of incense, Wen Liunian was still leaning against the wall in a daze.
"Is there something on your mind?" Zhao Yue asked, he looked very sleepy before, why he hasn't fallen asleep yet.
"No." Wen Liunian rubbed his nose, pulling his thoughts back from nine days away.
I didn't think about anything.
Zhao Yue said, "If you don't want to sleep, I have something for you."
"Huh?" Wen Liunian turned to look at him, "What is it?"
Zhao Yue took out a small jade whistle from his bosom.
Wen Liunian pushed back the quilt and sat up.
"When I was practicing martial arts with my master, there were many white snowbirds on the mountain." Zhao Yue handed him the whistle, "Just blow it, and the mountains and plains are like a white snowfall." Countless birds flew into the sky It is one of the few beautiful pictures of childhood.
"Snowbird?" Wen Liunian looked at the jade whistle in his hand, it was very shiny and smooth, obviously it had been rubbed for a long time.
"This jade whistle was made by Master." Zhao Yue said, "He didn't leave me much either."
"I'll keep it safe." Wen Liunian looked at him.
"It's not worth much, and there are no snowbirds here." Zhao Yue smiled, "But I just want to give it to you."
"Next time we go to Miaojiang together, we can still use it." Wen Liunian put the jade whistle away.
Zhao Yue nodded, "Okay."
"Wait for me." Wen Liunian stepped on soft shoes and ran to the cabinet, took a small box from it, and took a chubby carp gold pendant from it.
"This is for you." Wen Liunian stuffed the small pendant into his hand, "Return the gift."
Zhao Yue laughed, "Then you have lost money." Obviously this piece of gold is more valuable.
"When I was a child, I ate too much, and my mother felt weak, so she went to the temple to ask for this amulet." Wen Liunian said, "In order not to overwhelm me."
Zhao Yue: ...
For the first time in this life, I heard that some mothers would go to the temple to beg Bodhisattvas because they were worried that their sons would eat too much.
Wen Liunian got into bed again holding the small jade whistle, this time he fell asleep very quickly, Zhao Yue wrapped the small gold pendant around a red thread and hung it on the handle of Jiyue's knife.
Although the chubby golden carp does not go well with such a murderous ancient demon knife, but since it is a gift from a loved one, let alone a gold pendant, even a cloth-stitched tiger, I am afraid Will gladly accept.
Master Zhao swung Jiyue Knife again.
The longer you look at it, the more pleasing it is.
But in Hutougang, the atmosphere is much more gloomy.
"The imperial court sent someone to Yunlan City to track down Zhao Yue's life experience?" The man in the cloak suddenly stood up from his chair.
"Yes, the people in the city are saying that there should be nothing wrong." Zhang Shengrui nodded, but he was a little surprised in his heart - when he first received the news, although he was a little surprised, he didn't think too much about it, and just reported it as usual I gave it to the leader, but I didn't expect such a big reaction.
The man in the cloak didn't say a word for a long time, his eyes behind the mask were a bit ferocious.
"Clan leader." Zhang Shengrui tentatively asked, "But what's the matter?"
"Is there any news about this matter?" the cloaked man asked.
"There are quite a few, but they are all rumors of the common people." Zhang Shengrui said, "Some people say that he is a god who descended to earth, and some people say that he is related to Shen Qianling from Shadow Chasing Palace. Most of them are just nonsense, and they are not accurate."
"Who was sent by the imperial court?" the cloaked man asked again.
"Pan Qing is the deputy general of the garrison of Cang'er Prefecture." Zhang Shengrui said, "I don't know the rest. He rarely comes to Cangwu City, and he poses no threat to us."
"How many eyeliners are there in the city?" the cloaked man asked.
Zhang Shengrui said, "Three people, but it's better for the leader not to use them for the time being."
"Why?" The cloaked man's voice was dissatisfied, "Could it be that you have to raise it for nothing?"
"That's not true, but the government's actions have been like thunder recently, and our people will inevitably be a bit of a ghost." Zhang Shengrui said, "It's not easy to stick to it until now and not confess to the government. If we receive another mission, I'm afraid it will backfire. .”
The man in the cloak looked a little annoyed.
Zhang Shengrui said, "What is the leader worried about?"
"Tell Huang Ying, the action will start tomorrow." The man in the cloak was gloomy, "No matter how much the price is, I will use the fastest speed to get Zhao Yue's head."
Zhang Shengrui nodded, "This subordinate knows."
"Let's do it." The cloaked man left and strode back to his residence.
Zhang Shengrui stood where he was, with doubts in his eyes.
He already felt a little strange when he agreed to borrow troops from Mujiazhuang before, but he didn't think much about it because the two parties seemed to have some friendship before, but he didn't expect that after the defeat of Mujiazhuang, the leader would still be so concerned about Zhao Yue's life and death. The Hutou Gang and Chaomuya were in the same Cangmang Mountain before, and there was no dispute and conflict, so they were barely in trouble, why are they suddenly so fussy now
When Mujiazhuang first came back, he had a long discussion with the gang leader in the room. Maybe it was at that time that the other party told some great secrets
Zhang Shengrui frowned slightly, standing still and thinking.
"What are you doing?" A voice suddenly came from behind.
Zhang Shengrui was taken aback.
"Where's the boss?" Huang Ying asked again.
"I just left." Zhang Shengrui said, "It's just right, the leader told you to start action tomorrow, no matter what method you use, you must get Zhao Yue's head.
"So fast?" Huang Ying frowned slightly upon hearing this.
"It seems that he is really in a hurry." Zhang Shengrui lowered his voice.
"I see." Huang Ying said, "I will prepare as soon as possible."
Zhang Shengrui nodded, then turned around and left the front hall.
Inside the government office, Mu Qingshan was arranging the files in the study, while sweeping the beams of the house with a feather duster to remove dust.
"What are you doing?" Shang Yunze coughed as soon as he entered the door.
"Get out quickly." Mu Qingshan covered his mouth and nose with a cloth towel, "It's very dusty."
"Why do you have to do these things yourself?" Shang Yunze carried him off the ladder.
"It's just a matter of raising your hands." Mu Qingshan's face was like a little cat.
Shang Yunze didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Hurry up and go back to take a bath."
Mu Qingshan said, "Anyway, it's dirty, so I might as well clean it up at once." It also saves Uncle Zhang the trouble.
Shang Yunze beckoned.
"Castle Master." The two disciples came over immediately.
"Clean up the study." Shang Yunze said, "The faster the better, don't mess up your lord's things."
"Yes." The disciple nodded and accepted the order. Mu Qingshan wanted to say something, but was dragged to the bedroom by the hand.
"See for yourself how dirty it is." Shang Yunze pressed him in front of the bronze mirror.
Mu Qingshan rubbed his nose, his face was even more pale.
The servants quickly came over with boiling water, and Shang Yunze reached out to help him take off his clothes.
Mu Qingshan was taken aback, and instinctively covered his clothes, "I'll do it myself, you go out."
Shang Yunze said, "I won't go out."
Mu Qingshan: ...
"It's only natural to watch my wife take a bath." Shang Yunze slightly bent down and approached him.
Mu Qingshan blushed again in an instant.
You are the lady.
Shang Yunze hugged him and sat on the chair, "Look, I've even prepared the dowry."
"So what." Mu Qingshan muttered.
Shang Yunze held his hand, "Since we want to get married, we naturally have to do what a husband and wife should do."
Mu Qingshan's body froze, even his head started to smoke.
Can't you do it
As it is now, in fact, it is also very good.
But Lord Chambord obviously didn't think so.
Seeing that the man in his arms didn't seem to be resisting much, he tentatively stretched out his hand and gently pulled his belt away.
Mu Qingshan slapped it decisively.
Shang Yunze was taken aback, and hurriedly avoided.
Mu Qingshan: ...
Shang Yunze held his wrist, "Are you really willing to hit him?" Why so hard.
Mu Qingshan said, "I'm used to it."
Shang Yunze's face darkened when he heard this, "Why do you have this habit?" Could it be that he was often molested by Deng Tuzi before.
"Brother taught me." Mu Qingshan said, "If you encounter a hooligan, you should slap him in the face and kick his life!"
Shang Yunze was taken aback, but he was very happy in his heart.
Uncle taught very well.
"You go out." Mu Qingshan struggled for a long time, but still couldn't undress and take a bath in front of him.
Shang Yunze sighed inwardly.
Mu Qingshan forcefully pushed him out the door.
The clouds in the sky were changing, and Shang Yunze was lying on the rocking chair in distress.
That's all for now, if it's really shy when it's wedding night in the bridal chamber, then what should I do.
I can't bear to force it, but if I really let it go, I don't know when I will be able to eat it.
Well worth the headache.
Early the next morning, Xiatouzhou County reported many more cases. Wen Liunian didn't even eat much breakfast, and had been busy for three hours before finishing the dossier roughly.
"Not dizzy?" Zhao Yue asked.
Wen Liunian said with blank eyes, "Dizzy."
Zhao Yue: ...
"Click it for me." Wen Liunian closed his eyes.
Zhao Yue shook his head in his heart, stepped forward and gently massaged his temples, "Do you want to go out to get some air?"
"Alright." Wen Liunian agreed with a yawn.
If he just fell asleep like this, he would probably be even more dizzy.
Of course, since the common people still have extremely high expectations for Mr. Zhao, they will be surrounded when they go out, so they had to be replaced by Zhao Wu to accompany him to go out—it was always a way to buy sugar and sesame balls for Huatang. .
The dark guard squatted on the roof and ate melon seeds. Ordinary people said it was sour and spicy, but since Zuo Hufa was pregnant, he ate sour today and sweet the next, and even had to add salt to his porridge for a few days. He was really tough.
Maybe a Nezha will be born in the future, and if the wind rises, there may be one!
"Do you want to eat, sir?" Zhao Wu asked Wen Liunian after buying a bag of sugar sesame balls from a shop in the city.
The hemp balls just out of the pot are hot, covered with a layer of syrup, and they are crispy and sweet at first glance, so Mr. Wen took one cheekily, "Thank you."
"Go ahead." Zhao Wu took out a piece of paper from his pocket, "I still want to buy stewed tofu."
"What is this?" Wen Liunian asked curiously.
"It's all something to buy." Zhao Wudao, "It's not too much today, it was exaggerated last time." He wanted to eat Sophora japonica sauce, but he searched Cangmang City and couldn't find it.
Wen Liunian looked at him with eyes full of sympathy.
The two bought dried bean curd and salted water duck. Zhao Wu was still looking through what the next thing was, but the city gate guard came running from afar, "My lord."
"What's the matter?" Wen Liunian asked.
"It's not a big deal." The guard said, "I was going to find Master Mu, but since my lord is here, it's the same if I say so."
Wen Liunian nodded, "Say."
"On the official road just now, a woman ran up suddenly, her face was full of panic and she was injured, so the brothers stepped forward to ask what happened." The guard said, "She claimed to be a lady from the south, and said she wanted to go Wangcheng was visiting relatives, but encountered bandits on the way, and the rest were killed, only her survived."
"Go and have a look." Wen Liunian said.
Zhao Wu nodded and followed him to the city gate.
A young woman in her twenties was sitting on a chair, her eyes were red from crying, surrounded by several aunts and aunts.
"My lord." The guard greeted.
The woman in yellow also stood up, with panic in her eyes.
"Don't be afraid, girl." Wen Liunian comforted.
"Yes, Mr. Wen is a good person, don't be afraid." The aunt next to him also comforted him.
"My lord, save me." The woman in yellow knelt down on the ground with a "Putong", tears streaming down her face instantly.
Zhao Wu stretched out his hand to help her up.
"I escaped from the bandits." The woman cried, "I have been hungry for two whole days, please give me something to eat."
The aunts around sighed, and Zhao Wu passed the hemp ball in his hand, "Let's satisfy our hunger first."
"Thank you, young master." The woman took the paper bag and started eating before she could wipe her hands clean, obviously she was really hungry.
"Let's take it back to the government office first." Wen Liunian said, the gate of the city was crowded with people and it was not a suitable place for questioning.
Zhao Wu nodded, "Miss, would you like to go back with us?"
The woman nodded her head vigorously, and looked at him pitifully with wide eyes.
When the other women saw it, they all sighed in sympathy, such a beautiful young lady, what a pity.
The three of them walked all the way to the government office, when they were about to reach the door, the woman probably felt dizzy due to hunger for a long time, and just now she ate too much, so her feet softened and she passed out. Fortunately, Zhao Wuyan and his hands were quick, so she didn't fall to the ground just now.
Seeing her pale face, Zhao Wu didn't dare to be careless, and directly carried her into the mansion.
"Left protector." Wen Liunian trotted all the way.
"Huh?" Huatang was teasing the red-armored wolf, "What's the matter, sir?" Why did he look anxious.
Then the next moment, I saw Zhao Wu walking in with a woman in his arms.
Hua Tang: ...
Zhao Wu put the man on the stone bench, "I met him on the road.",
Huatang grabbed her wrist, tested her pulse, frowned and said, "Why are you so weak?"
"It is said that I have been hungry for three days." Wen Liunian said, "Is there nothing wrong?"
"If it's just fainting from hunger, it's nothing to worry about." Huatang said, "Cook some sugar water and porridge and feed them, and you can take medicine to recuperate when you wake up."
Wen Liunian nodded, and ordered his servants to clean up one of the guest rooms and let her live in it first.
"What's going on?" Huatang asked.
Zhao Wu roughly explained the matter.
"Why are there bandits everywhere?" Hua Tang frowned.
"The terrain in the high mountains is dangerous, and it will be more chaotic than the plains." Zhao Wudao, "However, being able to escape from the bandits is considered a great fortune. If there is an escort agency along the way in the future, we can send her home together."
"But she went from south to north to join relatives, and there should be prosperous places along the way, so why would there be bandits?" Hua Tang was puzzled.
Zhao Wudao, "Maybe it's a bandit? I don't know too well. I won't know until she wakes up and asks."
Huatang rubbed her temples, "Forget it, I'll go to sleep for a while." I've been bored in the government office recently, and I'm really dizzy, I really don't want to think about other messy things.
The dark guard knew in his heart that she was not in a good mood, so he hid as far away as possible, for fear that he would accidentally get into trouble and be caught by the left guard to vent his anger.
That's really miserable when you think about it, and you can't beat it at all.
"Rescue a girl?" Zhao Yue also heard about it.
"It's from the south." Wen Liunian said, "It looks pitiful."
Zhao Yue said, "Tengyun Castle also has a business in the south, we can find a chance to send her back together."
Wen Liunian nodded, "I just asked Lord Shangbao that there will be a caravan going to the south of the Yangtze River next month." It was also a coincidence.
