Battle of the Red Chamber Ring III

Ever since Zeng Baijia's uncle knew that his nephew was promising, he specifically ordered his son to establish a good relationship with Zeng Baijia. When he said that, his son's new wife happened to be there too, with a curious look on his face. And a shy smile on his face.

His son was instantly annoyed, and said nonchalantly to the shopkeeper of the cloth shop: "He doesn't understand anything, even if he has some status now, he doesn't know what will happen in the future, anyway, I don't want to lose face, you want to go to you Go." After speaking, he asked his daughter-in-law if she had finished eating, looked at her little daughter-in-law and nodded, and then pulled his daughter-in-law out of the way.

Although they all talk about filial piety nowadays, his family only has one son, and they usually think about having a son to support them in the future, so naturally most of them are pampered.

"Look at you, talk about other people's affairs carefully. Isn't our family very good now? Besides, the daughter-in-law has just entered the door now. Let the daughter-in-law listen to it as if we have something to ask for others. My son is thin-skinned. You It’s not that I don’t know.” Mothers always favor their sons habitually.

Zeng Baijia's uncle sighed and could only eat sullenly.Just dipping down with chopsticks, I found that it was the meat food sent by Zeng Baijia today, and I suddenly felt a little tasteless.

"What's more, we are relatives of our own family. If he has anything to help in the future, how can he still refuse you? You are his uncle!" I saved half a bowl and planned to give it to my son tomorrow.

Zeng Baijia is now living in the army in Xining, following Jia Huan across the door, when he returned to the place, he saw many people moving things, he grabbed one of them and asked, and heard that it was Jia Huan who was moving, so he went Run to Jia Huan.

When they got to the door, several soldiers were carrying the boxes, humming and humming, while Jia Huan stood aside as if he was supervising the work.

"Why do you move things here? Do you want to move out?" Zeng Baijia looked at Jia Huan and asked.

Jia Huan glanced at him: "It's just right, do you want to move in with me? My second brother is going back to the capital now. I sold the yard there and bought a house in the city, not far away. It just so happens that we don't delay our business."

Naturally, Zeng Baijia was willing, but he was also curious about who Jia Huan sold the yard in his hometown to.

"I haven't found anyone yet, but let's go out, do you want to go back?" Jia Huan looked at Zeng Baijia in surprise, he thought that there was a dark history for him, and it was a bad memory.

Zeng Baijia said coyly: "I can't leave my mother alone, I also want to honor her in the future." He looked at Jia Huan anxiously, seeing that Jia Huan's heart softened, so he could only agree , Zeng Baijia jumped on Jia Huan happily and was playing around, Jia Huan suddenly felt his right eye twitch, and it was dark again, so he closed his eyes.

"What's wrong?" Zeng Baijia asked nervously.

Jia Huan waved his hand: "It's okay, but I don't know what happened to the previous wound, and it seems to have relapsed recently."

Zeng Baijia looked closely at the corner of Jia Huan's eye. The wound is now intact, but it is a little different from the usual wounds. What should have been pink is now black with blue.

"Would you like to go find the doctor?" Zeng Baijia asked worriedly.

Jia Huan shook his head and found that his eyes were healed, so he sighed indifferently: "It's good that we can survive, you have such a long wound, I just wiped it and went to see it, and it's not bad for them to hear You die laughing." He waved his hands indifferently, and then gave the title deed of the yard in his hand to Zeng Baijia.

Zeng Baijia didn't want it anymore.

"What's the matter, are you being polite to me?" Jia Huan wondered, why is this kid so crazy now.

Zeng Baijia shook his head: "Forget it, I won't hinder them if I don't go back, anyway they don't necessarily want to see me." Rather than confronting people who don't want to see every day, it's better to be happier with the third brother. "

The two of them moved out of the army, and moved to a house on the other side of the street. The yard was not big enough for two people to live in. But after all, in the city, the house was not cheap, and it was waiting for a group of soldiers to help clean it up. Huan invited everyone to a restaurant for a meal.

Everyone was in high spirits, and wine glasses were raised during the banquet. Some congratulated Jia Huan on his promotion, and others congratulated Zeng Baijia on his promotion. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Peng Lai intended to promote them.Others didn't know about Jia Huan's background, but everyone knew it. Those who lived and died together at the beginning naturally wouldn't have other opinions, but the new recruits were a little more fussy.

Jia Huan thought that since he was socializing, he couldn't drink less, so when he and Zeng Baijia were helped back to the yard, they were both drunk.Waiting to go back the next day, Jia Huan found that General Peng, whom he had not seen for a long time, was sitting on the main seat with his legs dangling. fell to the ground.

Seeing Jia Huan enter the door, Peng Lai stretched out his hand and waved: "Yo~"

Jia Huan really wanted to ignore the other party, but under the watchful eyes of everyone, especially everyone greeted him with eager eyes, hoping that he could move this great god away.

"General, I received some news a few days ago and wanted to report it to you. Why don't you go to the study together?" Jia Huan didn't let everyone down, so he just made up an excuse and invited Peng Lai away. Looking at Jia Huan, he said, "Since you said so, let's go."

In the study room, Peng Lai took the lead in choosing a comfortable seat, and then looked at Jia Huan: "Tell me, is there anything worthy of this general's trip back and forth."

Jia Huan is not a vegetarian either, the so-called news is just random, and of course it is not in vain: "A while ago I found out that the general Chu who the general ordered to see is still in prison, but the general doesn't seem to want to reach out. Help, this case has been suppressed by the deputy governor, you see?"

It's really a matter. After the war, the seat was promoted, but he forgot about it. Peng Lai touched his slightly wider heart, and then sighed: "There is no way to save him, and now he is the bait." Whoever gets close will be unlucky." Peng Lai also understood, but he knew that if something happened to Chu Jiang, Jiang Yan would probably feel uncomfortable. Song, tell Jiang Yan, I'm afraid they will not end well now.

Jia Huan suddenly remembered the so-called deputy governor. He seemed to have never seen it before, and passed by several times. When they were in the border town, they packed up and came back, while the deputy governor went across the city to pursue.He vaguely remembered that there were more than 40 people guarding the middle, and basically only a towering red roof was seen.

Afterwards, he was patted on the shoulder by Zeng Baijia, regained consciousness, and never saw him again.

"The deputy governor is the son of the Southern Prince raised by His Majesty. You were also in the capital before. I wonder if you are familiar with it?" Peng Lai unintentionally told Jia Huan about the identity of the deputy governor.

"You also know who I am. How could such a noble person know you?" Jia Huan waved his hands with a smile, but it was a pity that the smile didn't reach his eyes. He looked down at his fingers. Tighten your fist.

Peng Lai didn't speak, just glanced at Jia Huan, and then said: "Now that the war is over, I'm afraid there will be storms coming, so you should be careful." what.

Jia Huan nodded: "A few days ago, I heard from my colleagues in the army that the general assigned his subordinates to various ministries. I inquired about it. Although there were such errands in previous years, it has never been such a big move like this time. conspired."

After Jia Huan finished speaking, he looked at Peng Lai. Whenever there is news about the general, the only thing they should care about is Peng Lai's thoughts, because the general is his immediate boss after all, and he has a kindness with Peng Lai. He can't figure it out by himself, and others can't help him.

Peng Lai himself knew Jia Huan's thoughts, he just smiled and said, "How can I be alone now!"

Jia Huan was relieved like this, but he also told himself about his special relationship with Jiang Yan. This is to measure his ability to bear, okay? Jia Huan stretched out his hand to cover his face, and now Peng Lai and Jiang Yan did Demonstration, he saw that everyone in the army seemed to have that kind of emotion. Afterwards, the two chatted for a long time. While they were talking, footsteps came from outside. There was a slight blush, and looking at the other person's walking posture, it seemed that there was no difference.

Jiang Yan watched depressedly as Jia Huan kept sweeping his waist, and realized that Peng Lai must have said something, but he was also a good man, so he calmly said that he had something to look for Peng Lai.

"But since you are here, let me ask again, do you live with Baijia now?" Jiang Yan looked at Jia Huan, as if he wanted to see something on his face.

Jia Huan nodded: "We don't have a lot of money now, so we simply bought a house together, and we will move out when we have money in the future." It was also because of this consideration that we bought a house next to the door, but It's just that other people look bigger. For those who know the truth, the two actually bought two houses and built a yard.

"In this case, you tell Baijia to be careful about the people around him. Someone reported that Zeng Baijia was indifferent to his relatives and unfilial to his parents." After all, being a military officer is different from a civil servant. It was to be dismissed and investigated, but the military officers were all rich and prosperous with their lives, and most of these trivial matters were ignored.

"Zeng Baijia's father passed away early, and his mother remarried. If you say that there is nothing involved now. Besides, his mother did not bring him to remarry on the surface. How can you say that he is not filial? It is simply not right and wrong." Jia Huan still knew about Zeng Baijia's situation. In the new barracks, there were almost no people in Zeng's village who didn't know about it. If anyone had an opinion on Zeng Baijia now, it was Zeng Dashu who was bullied by them back then.

"It's good for you to know for yourself. Let someone check it out and pinch the source, so as not to worry about it in the future. It's not like before." When Jiang Yan said this, he looked at Peng Lai, and Peng Lai felt that he really had to reflect. Why? Everyone thinks he is good with the general!There is no basic trust!It's annoying to be too gracious!

Peng Lai didn't know whether he should laugh or cry.

The new envoy was in his forties or fifties. On the day of his arrival, Jia Huan followed a group of colleagues and stood at the gate of the city to watch the large number of troops entering. Then he saw the legendary general coming forward to greet him. It was the first time he saw Nian Yao, with handsome facial features and a hearty smile on his face, he seemed to know Nian Yao following the inspector, and after waiting for everyone to salute, he took him to the general's mansion.

"I heard that the inspector this time is someone close to the Holy Master, and he has some friendship with the General, and I don't know what the Holy Master means." The speaker was a Northwest Guerrilla, one level higher than Peng Lai, but he had a good relationship with Peng Lai, We often drink together on weekdays.

"It seems that the general is still in the emperor's heart, so we don't have to think about it." Peng Lai replied in a low voice.

The guerrilla snorted, then looked to the side, and leaned into Peng Lai's ear: "You boy, be careful, I heard that the one originally wanted to start with you, but fortunately the news was timely, we stopped early in the morning. Otherwise, it will be you and me who are squatting in the prison now." It is impossible to say that there is no resentment. After so many years of life and death with the general, no one has any military exploits. If you say that Chu Jiang saved the general several times in the past, that is the key. Isn't the moment blocked for the dead ghost, people's hearts!

The crowd dispersed, and Guerrilla waved at Peng Lai and left. Waiting for Peng Lai to come down from above, he saw Jiang Yan leading Jia Huan and Zeng Baijia looking at him eagerly. Zeng Baijia made a thought on the back of his head: "What are you looking at?"

Zeng Baijia pursed his lips depressedly, and hit him, but since he asked, he naturally replied: "Deputy Shi Jiang said that today is a good day, and we will go hiking together." .

Jia Huan stretched out his hand and stroked Zeng Baijia's hair silently, and then said: "First the deputy governor, and then the inspector. I'm afraid the Holy One really wants to close the net."

"Now that the war is over, our general doesn't know how to step down after singing. I don't want to give up, so I can only wait for others to drive him down." Peng Lai shrugged indifferently, "Don't mention him, since we are going to climb the mountain, So I brought some food, and we spent the night on the mountain, so we can hide out for a few days."

The four of them were ready to set off with great enthusiasm, Zeng Baijia happily hung beside Jia Huan and said something, Jia Huan smiled happily, of course he didn't know that there was a restaurant not far away, Chi Chen restrained himself When he handled his teacup with care, he accidentally smashed the entire table, and then crushed the teacup in his hand under the horrified gaze of the others.It's just a touch-boom!That's all.

"Go and find out who that chittering person is by Brother's side, and why Brother has such a good relationship with him." Chi Chen stared coldly with a cold face, and then turned to look at Mu Mu.

The four guards standing on the side couldn't help turning their heads at the same time, and looked in the direction Chi Chen was looking at just now. Sure enough, although the familiar face had faded, it didn't prevent them from recognizing this person.

Why die!Mu Mu responded, and then buried Jia Huan in her stomach, who never knew what Xingting was. You can go as soon as you go, at least stay there obediently under the eyes of the master. He ran away for three years, and now he's gone again. Hanging shoulders with other men, chaste, chaste. ——Mu Mu has completely forgotten that Jia Huan's gender is male, and by the way, she also gave a reasonable explanation for her master's jealous behavior.

Mu Mu calmly ignored the jealous eyes of the guards behind Chi Chen, and walked down the stairs. It happened that Mu Kun came up and saw Mu Mu go downstairs: "Why did you come down, where is your son?"

Mu Mu turned upstairs and said, "I'm angry alone. I'm looking at Jia Huan now. I'm fine now, and I seem to be doing well in the army. Your apprentice is really good and has a bright future."

Mu Kun whispered: "That's right, I don't know who taught it, but it's hard for this kid to make a comeback on his own." Knowing that Jia Huan is fine now, he felt relieved, "According to the envoy who came to send it to him." Oral message, His Majesty has brought an oral message." As for the content, he didn't say a word.

Mu Mu nodded and signaled Mu Kun to go up, and the two passed by, both expressionless, the enemy was in front of him, and nothing else was important.

The new inspector, who came from a low family background, was originally the eldest son of a merchant family. He saved the life of the Holy Majesty when he went to the south of the Yangtze River, and then helped the Holy Majesty with bankruptcy. A love affair.The reason why he was sent here was naturally that the Holy Majesty wanted to see if the general could relieve himself of military power.

For Nian Yao, he has been busy for half of his life and served half of his life. When he can use it, he is driven to death, and when he can't, he is forced to resign himself. Why!

He was used to being an emperor in the Northwest, and he was used to a life where no one objected to what he said. Now it is absolutely impossible for him to return to the capital to pretend to be a grandson!So when he saw the inspector, he smiled and said: "We'll talk about the official business after we finish our personal relationship, now let's have a drink together."

He arranged the most sumptuous banquet, invited the most voluptuous dancer, served the best wine, and followed the envoy to drink a glass of wine.The two of them talked about the old things with nostalgia. After drinking for three rounds, Nian Yao stood up, went to the inspector's side, put his shoulders on his shoulders and began to pretend to be crazy: "Why did I give him my life all my life? Now But I want me to pretend to be a grandson! I was not born well, but I am also a coat under his hands, and my sister is still in his harem to bear children for him, what did I do wrong, what did I do wrong!" He said As he said that, he smashed the wine glass, and then tears came down.

According to the inspector, he only lowered his eyelids and drank a glass of wine, not answering a word of Nian Yao's words.He only watched the singing and dancing seriously, and then watched the people in the General's Mansion help the drunk Nian Yao down.

"My lord, the general told me to take you to the guest room on the east side, will I take you there?" A servant-like man came over and bowed to greet the envoy.

"No need, it's still early, I'm going out for a walk." Li Shangwei smiled at the servant, and as he got up, the guards on the side hurriedly stepped forward to put on the cloak for him. Li Shangwei stretched out his hand and pulled the hat to cover his face. out the gate.

A carriage was ready at the door, and when the visitors saw Li Shangwei getting into the carriage, they drove the carriage across the street.

Nian Yao, who was pretending to be drunk, regained his clarity the moment he left the door. He straightened up, and the two servants who were supporting him respectfully stepped aside and stopped. Nian Yao shook his head and looked at The adjutant who was waiting for him at the front glanced back and stepped forward after making sure that there was no one there: "Order people to keep an eye on him, as long as he is in the northwest, he must have a good look, you understand!"

While talking, Nian Yao took off his wine-stained robe and threw it on the ground: "Go burn it, I don't want to see it again." He watched the servant girl pick up the robe, and ordered After saying a word, he added, "Where's Wanniang?"

"Madam is chanting scriptures in the Buddhist hall." The servant girl replied cautiously, keeping her head down, not daring to look at Nian Yao.

Nian Yao hummed and walked to the Buddhist hall in the side room.Pushing open the door, I saw a woman dressed in plain white kneeling in front of the Bodhisattva, holding a string of Buddhist beads in her hand, her willow eyebrows slightly frowned.She didn't seem to hear the movement behind her, she just kept pinching the prayer beads in her hand and kept chanting scriptures.

The waiter inside saw Nian Yao coming in, so he went out consciously. Nian Yao took off his coat and threw it aside, pulled over the kneeling person on the ground, and sat on the chair beside him, with one arm around him, Pulling the Buddhist beads and throwing them aside, she opened her skirt, then raised her head along her neck, seeing that the other party's dark eyes finally looked at her squarely, seeing the white skin in her eyes, Nian Yao reached out and touched it.

"If I die, you can go to hell with me." Nian Yao suddenly laughed, grabbed the other party's neck and bit down. Let the tears flow—there are countless nephrite jade in the house, soft and fragrant, soft and charming.When the servant girls outside heard the sound, they panicked in fright.The manager who was waiting outside waved the waiters to leave one after another, while he sighed unconsciously.

The carriage was in a hurry. Li Shangwei sat in it and found that the speed of the carriage was a bit fast, so he subconsciously asked what was wrong.The coachman outside replied: "Someone is following, I will go around a few times."

"There's no need to go around, even if they can't keep up, they will know that I'm going to see the prince, so you can go there openly." Li Shangwei snorted and told the driver not to mind.

Unexpectedly, the coachman laughed: "The prince ordered me to do this, so the person I want to see is naturally not the prince."

Li Shangwei was still a little puzzled, so the driver outside said: "You sit down, let's run for a while, just shake it off." He flicked his horsewhip again, hit the whip in the air, and ran quickly .

The poor inspector thought all the way and couldn't figure out who he was going to meet. It was only when he got there that he realized that it was Peng Lai.As far as the relationship between Peng Lai and Li Shangwei is concerned, there is no need to mention the entanglement. It is just a relationship between a gangster and a military scum, but they can know each other because of Nian Yao.Back then Nian Yao underestimated Li Shangwei, so he gave Peng Lai the job of taking care of the other party's safety. Peng Lai originally had the same temperament as Li Shangwei, and he became familiar with him when he spoke.

"Your brother is still alive now, okay, that's great!" The inspector, who was just a dog, revealed his truth when he saw Peng Lai. He didn't care about the huge eyes of the carriage driver behind him, and put his hand on Peng Lai Go up on your shoulders.

The place where the coachman stopped was at the foot of the mountain, and it seemed that Peng Lai and the others were going up the mountain. He looked at Jiang Yan, and he recognized him.Sure enough, Jiang Yan looked at him and nodded with a smile. After that, Jia Huan also knew him. Unfortunately, Jia Huan didn't know him, but it didn't bother Jia Huan's act of pretending to know him, such as asking for an or something.

"I've seen Mr. Inspectorate." Seeing that Jia Huan was about to kneel down, Li Shangwei quickly helped him up.

"Hey, don't be too polite. You may not know me, but I know your father. If it doesn't interfere, just call me uncle." Li Shangwei smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed. He was naturally happy. If he avoids him this time, then there is no possibility of digging up information from the inside. However, this Peng Lai can actually connect with Shizi, and then meet himself, so his task this time will be much easier.

Jia Huan smiled and called uncle, and then stood aside so as not to disturb them.

Peng Lai was not polite, and when he saw the inspector, he told him everything he knew: "When I went there, I wanted to show the original account book, but the problem is that his house was ambushed that night. , I don’t know who did it, but it’s probably ordered by the general.”

"Hey, I had a good friendship with him back then, and I never thought that one day we would meet." According to the inspector, he also knew his mission. Seeing that Peng Lai had said most of what he had said, he reciprocated and told the other party about the Holy Spirit. manner.

"We all know that you are here for the general, and the general knows it too. But so what, everyone in the Northwest knows Nian Yao but not the Holy One. At the beginning, the distribution of the Northwest was established, and there were generals." If it wasn't for..." If it wasn't for the fact that His Majesty wants to take back the military power now, why should it be so.

"Under the couch, how can you allow others to snore?" Li Shangwei thought clearly, he looked at Peng Lai and said, "You are already thirty now, and you have not yet married. You have paid so much for the Northwest, like you His Majesty will not treat him badly, but what did Yao do that year!"

Peng Lai didn't say a word, he naturally knew that the general used the sky high and the emperor's distance to unite with his subordinates to deceive the Holy Majesty, and took the food allocated by the superiors as his own.Although the sage was merciful and exempted the Northwest from taxes for three years, the people below didn't know it.The large amount of money in the middle was used by the general to build a mansion and recruit soldiers and horses. If Nian Yao didn't turn his back on it, what did he do with it?

Seeing that Peng Lai was silent, Li Shangwei didn't make any sound, but just looked up at the sky: "You guys go up to the mountain in the afternoon, are you going to live in the mountain?"

Peng Lai nodded: "My lord, are you coming too?"

Li Shangwei shook his head: "Forget it, let's go, I'll be back in a while." Now that he has important news in his hand, he naturally wants to go back first, and spread the news first before the general takes it seriously, I'm afraid The longer he was in the northwest, the more people he watched.

Peng Lai nodded, watching the waiting coachman come over, and then drove Li Shangwei away, Jiang Yan watched Peng Lai not moving, stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, Jiang Yan's face was full of helplessness: "You have done your best. Even if you don't say it, someone else will. If you don't grasp this last straw, we will have to die with the general."

The general may not necessarily die when the time comes, but pawns like Peng Lai will definitely die.

"When I saw Li at the beginning, how did I know that he was able to reach the position he is in today? We are also lucky." He looked back at Jiang Yan, stretched out his hand to hold Jiang Yan's hand, and the two stood leaning on each other for a while .

Jiang Yan was a little sad at first, so he leaned on Peng Lai and said nothing, but suddenly remembered that Jia Huan and Zeng Baijia were also there, and he stood busy and looked back, but there was no one behind him.

Peng Lai covered his mouth and snickered for a while, Jiang Yan was so angry that he stretched out his hand and knocked on his chest: "What are you laughing at?"

"They went in the morning, and there is no one who knows better than Jia Huan. I just glanced at him, and he calmly pulled Zeng Baijia up." Peng Lai mostly praised Jia Huan when he talked about it. , When I knew his identity before, I also sighed: "Life is not easy!"

"He's really good. I heard that he had studied in the Imperial College before. If his father hadn't suffered, he wouldn't have gone to the northwest. What do you think His Majesty thinks? His father isn't here anymore, so why would he let him come here as a bastard?" ?" Jiang Yan looked at Peng Lai suspiciously, but he couldn't figure it out.

Peng Lai pinched Jiang Yan's face and tugged: "You, there is still some news I don't know, but I got a piece of news that I don't know if it's true or not." As he spoke, he looked at Jiang Yan, begging me Ah, I won't tell unless you ask me.

Jiang Yan's head is full of black lines, well, it's rare that he is in the mood to joke with himself, so let him go: "Go ahead."

Peng Lai snorted, and then leaned into Jiang Yan's ear: "I heard the news, did the deputy governor also follow Jia Huan to the northwest? I heard that the Holy Lord intends to increase the strength of the deputy governor. Although he is a concubine, it is the Jia family after all, don't look at the Jia family's raiding of the house, this skinny camel is bigger than a horse, if Jia Huan rises in one day, there will be another family behind the deputy governor to support, how bad it is. The Holy Majesty is pointing the deputy governor to fight with Nanwang."

The Holy Majesty is really a man for picking his son to do it with his father, as expected, he retaliated with retaliation.At the beginning, Nanwang picked the Holy One to fight with the Holy One's mother and younger brother, but now he has a grievance and a debtor, but this son can respond to the Holy One, there are probably some things in it.

"Who knows what's going on between them, we'll honestly live on the mountain for ten days and a half a month, it's best to wait until we go down the mountain and everything is gone!" Peng Lai walked down the stone steps with Jiang Yan in his arms Going up, there are many trees on both sides, and there are occasional birdsong, and the mood is better than in the city.

It is said that the inspector sent the author's carriage back to the city. If he didn't enter the city gate, the carriage stopped at the entrance of the restaurant. According to the inspector, he saw the prince sitting on the top of the second floor. This play always has to be sung by the whole audience, he After carefully looking around, I went to the restaurant.

There were not many people upstairs, Xiao Er led the inspector to the door of a private room, opened the door and there were some people inside, and the one sitting in the middle was Prince Nan, the current deputy governor.And beside him were four guards standing guard.

"Master Li is here, let Xiao Wang wait." Chi Chen looked at Li Shangwei with a smile, there was nothing on the table, and there was nothing but a teacup in front of him, filled with water, and took a sip None of them drank.

Li Shangwei knew that seeing Chi Chen was different from seeing Peng Lai, so he stepped forward to salute politely, and when he heard Chi Chen scream, he rolled up his sleeves and bowed again: "Thank you, sir, for your help today, thank you, sir. Get the strings, otherwise the officer will be at a loss and have no way to start."

"Lord Li is being modest. Xiao Wang came here three years earlier than your lord, so he is very familiar with him. I don't know how well your lord can use his lunch here. The chefs in this restaurant are all from here. I think the food tastes good. Master Li's spleen and stomach."

"The place the son is looking for is naturally a good place." Li Shangwei catered to him, and sat aside, after a meal, he waited for Li Shangwei to leave, and the smile on Chi Chen's face was also put away.

He took a sip of tea expressionlessly and asked, "Are you seeing Brother?"

"I see, Master Huan seems to have lost a lot of weight." It was the groom who had just been driving for Li Shangwei who replied, and the groom took off his turban to reveal his true colors.

"That Peng Lai is a smart man, brother doesn't have to worry about making a living with him." Chi Chen nodded and replied.The people serving on the side were silent, and then they listened to the report from the groom——Mu Shan.

"At the beginning, Chu Jiang was silenced by the general first, but it seems that Peng Lai had some connection before. I'm afraid the inspector can be more clear than our investigation." After he finished speaking, he glanced at Chi Chen carefully, Although he is far away, he can read lips, and this is why he arranged for himself to go there this time.

"We are in the open and he is in the dark. I also hope that Li Shangwei can settle the matter this time. Now half of Nian Yao's generals are in my hands, as long as they don't mutiny by then." Chi Chen ordered a few Individuals speed up their actions and try to win over more people.

Chi Chen followed Li Shangwei and drew Nian Yao's full attention one by one, which saved Peng Lai and others a lot of trouble. Sure enough, Jia Huan stayed on the mountain for half a month before coming down, waiting for him to go back. At that time, I decisively found that something was wrong with the atmosphere.

Before he entered the house, he was grabbed by his colleagues. The man looked around and dragged Jia Huan to a hidden corner: "Why have you been following that General Peng for so long? Be careful that the General will trouble you! .”

Jia Huan looked at the other party in surprise: "Didn't the general tell everyone to rest? Why did you change your mind?"

"You, when the general asked everyone to rest, it was because of the envoy's face. Who knew that the lord would not move at all. Anyway, since you are here today, don't leave for a while. We will have lunch together when the time comes. .” That colleague was also straightforward and stated his purpose.

"No, let's go together at a time like this, we're looking for death!" Naturally, Jia Huan wouldn't make the other party suspicious, so he just refused when he opened his mouth, and sure enough, the other party got anxious all of a sudden.

"If you don't want to go, you have to go. If you don't want to die for no reason, then you must go." The colleague's surname is Fang, who was the shirtless and strong Fang Baichang back then, well, now it is Fang Qianhu.Because he is an acquaintance with Jia Huan, he has no scruples in speaking, "Just us, a member of the new military camp, I heard that it was Zeng Tie, who was from the same village as you, who started it. I heard that now he is mingling with the general. Yes, even better than you."

Zeng Tie was the guy who followed Zeng Lu against each other, and then changed camp quickly after seeing the opportunity. If Fang Yang hadn't mentioned it, Jia Huan would have forgotten it long ago.

"Why do you still keep in touch? That kid is not a vegetarian." Jia Huan spoke out first. In their eyes, he also came from Zengjia Village, so he naturally knew Zeng Tie's background better than they did.

"You said it, but I heard the news was signaled by the general, otherwise you have to go if you don't want to go." Fang Yang was honest, and he turned his hole card all at once.He is careless, and now the people involved are basically the old people around the general, otherwise he would not have sent someone to gather them new soldiers.

"If this is the case, it will be terrible, so it is your old Fang who takes care of me." Jia Huan smiled and patted Fang Yang's arm, and the relationship between the two became much closer.

"Hey, don't tell me, I know your character. The boy you took care of is now promising. It's convenient for me to know that you are not a treacherous person. That's all. Come out again." Fang Yang walked away after finishing speaking, Jia Huan stayed in the corner thinking for a while, straightened his sleeves, it seems that the people who are watching the theater can't do it, they have to go on stage and sing. .

If he can help Chi Chen, he will be repaying his kindness for taking care of him for many years. Wait until this matter is settled, so let's break it up. People in the same world should not have too much involvement after all.When Chi Chen didn't know, Jia Huan made up his mind to be friends with him, it's really a happy thing to hear.
