Jiapingguan Chronicle

Chapter 118 Gathering in Wuma Town

Standing on the tower, looking at the backs of the 300 people's team drifting away, Shen Haolin sighed softly.

"You don't have to be so reluctant, Xiaocha will be back in a few days." Xue Ruitian, who stood on the tower with Shen Haolin to see him off, patted his good brother on the shoulder, "Maybe it won't take that long, tomorrow You can see her in the evening, after all, everyone wants to go home to celebrate the new year."

"With your good words, I hope everything goes well. But..." Shen Haolin raised his eyebrows, "Do you think Wanyan Zongcheng and Wanyan Ping are really the murderers?"

"Not surprisingly, they are very likely to be the murderers. We have already raised the most important question, who will benefit from Wanyan and Wen's death? Of course, many people will benefit from his death, but Wanyan Zongcheng and Wanyanping have gained the most and the greatest benefits." Xue Ruitian wrapped his cloak tightly, looked up at the gloomy sky, "They don't need to be controlled by the nobles anymore."

"But, do they have the courage? Shen Haolin shook his head, "No, it should be said, do they have the brains? "

"People without brains would do this kind of thing of intercepting the mission halfway. Who would do this with a normal person with a brain?" Xue Ruitian chuckled, "If it were you, what would you do? Kill the mission, Leading the disaster to the Liao country, once it is found out, it will completely form a relationship with the Liao country. Yeluertu is also narrow-minded. Do you think he will be able to spare the murderer after the truth is revealed? Let alone an alliance, Liao is not It would be nice to join forces with Daxia to attack." Xue Ruitian curled his lips and said disgustedly, "Only the kind of guy who is cornered, cornered, and completely irrational would do such a stupid thing recklessly. It’s just a momentary refreshment, and I don’t even think about what to do in the future.”

"My lord, my subordinates think that what Hou Ye said is right." Standing beside Xue Ruitian, holding his red leaves and looking at Shen Haolin, he said, "Wanyan and Wen should be too arrogant in the Kingdom of Jin, even if they are Wanyan Zongcheng and Wanyan Ping will not feel at ease when they are appointed as envoys to Daxia. What if they take advantage of the opportunity of the mission and do something that makes them very... how to put it, fearful things, such as uniting Liao , United Great Xia and the like, the throne they finally obtained may be gone forever, which is the last thing their father and daughter want to see."

"Because that's how they kicked Wan Yanxi's father and brother out of power back then, so naturally they wouldn't allow it and prevent others from following their example."

Shen Haolin nodded in agreement, and saw that the team heading for Wuma Town had disappeared on the horizon, with no trace to be seen at all, he turned and went down the tower, Xue Ruitian followed behind him with Hongye.

"Yes, if it were you, you would do the same. It's human nature. What you have done will never be imitated by others. Otherwise, you will be the one who is unlucky, right?" Supported by Hongye, Slowly descending the tower, it took a lot of effort to finally return to the flat ground. Xue Ruitian let out a long breath and said, "I said that the father and daughter chose this bad strategy because they were completely defeated. Yan and Wen have been tossing and tossing a lot. Jin Kingdom has been flooded for almost two months, and the relief effect is not good at all. The people of Jin Kingdom complained a lot, all thanks to the nobles headed by Wanyan and Wen. The common people They don't know about the struggles in Yiqing Mansion. They just say that Wanyan Zongcheng and Wanyanping ignore their existence and don't take them seriously. If this situation continues for a while, there is no telling what will happen Chaozi, this is also what the father and daughter do not want to see. If they can get rid of Wanyan and Wen, and serve as a warning to others, and make the nobles of Yiqing Mansion calm down, they will do so."

"It makes sense." Shen Haolin turned his head, glanced at Hongye, and asked, "Actually, Hongye wants to follow Cha'er to Wuma Town, right?"

"Master Guo is wise, this subordinate has this idea!" Hongye nodded, and glanced at the big bag on Xue Ruitian's head, "Firstly, my subordinate is very interested in this case, and secondly, I want to protect the general. Safe. Although Liao Jin personally came to invite the general to solve the case, Wuma Town is still a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, and the subordinates are not at ease. It's a pity that Lord Hou knocked himself into such a state, and the subordinates have no way to leave."

"Thank you so much for not abandoning Benhou at the critical moment. Benhou is so touched, I must reward you well after I go back!" Following Shen Haolin into the Duke's Mansion, he walked slowly towards the Nuan Pavilion, "In order to repay you, Reduce the number of times you are bullied."

"Really? I really thank you, Master Hou!" Hong Ye snorted coldly, "You don't have to be so polite, Master Hou, I just want to make myself more comfortable."

"Anyway, I still want to thank you!" Xue Ruitian waved his hands indifferently, "Okay, you two don't have to worry so much, Xiaocha is very good on her own, has a lot of thoughts, and is also very vigilant , you must not follow Liao Jin's way. I believe that no matter what happens to her, she can deal with it calmly. What's more, she is accompanied by Xiao Jingjing and Jin Miaomiao, and there are so many guards and shadows Well, safety is not a problem. We don't have to think about it, just wait for her to come back with peace of mind and steadfastness."

"After careful calculation, it should be the first time she left us to go out alone." Shen Haolin pushed open the door of the Nuan Pavilion and let Xue Ruitian go in first. "Isn't it normal to be worried? You pretend to be calm with me, but in fact, you are also very worried, right?"

"Worry is for sure. As Hongye said, Wuma Town is now a dragon's lake and a tiger's den. No one knows what will happen. However, I still say that, I have great confidence in Xiaocha." Walking into the Nuan Pavilion, throwing off his body Xue Ruitian leaned directly on his recliner, and stretched his waist, "The golden country is not good in the fleeting years. If you make such a mess during the Chinese New Year, next year's life will not be too easy!"

"They really hate them!" Mei Lin and Mei Zhu left with Shen Cha, and Hong Ye took over their duties consciously, serving tea and water to Shen Haolin and Xue Ruitian.She put a pot of hot tea on Shen Haolin's table, filled the teacups for two people respectively, and handed one of the cups to Xue Ruitian. "It's rare for the deputy commander-in-chief to come back for the New Year. Everyone can see the general's happiness. Everyone is looking forward to the reunion dinner on the evening of the [-]th. If something like this happens, a good reunion dinner may be given to these bastards." Blended."

"That's impossible!" Xue Ruitian waved his hand, "If Xiaocha doesn't come back before the New Year's Eve, let's go to Wuma Town and snatch her back." He raised his eyebrows at Shen Haolin, "How about it?" ? Do you want to do it?"

"The plan is approved!"

"Ah-choo! Ah-choo! Ah-choo!" Shen Cha, who was rushing towards Wuma Town, suddenly sneezed three times. She rubbed her nose, wrapped her cloak, and said to Jin Miaomiao next to her, "No Did you really hit the mark? Have you caught a cold again?"

"The way I see it, you're not catching a cold, but someone is thinking about you!" Jin Jing grabbed the rein of the horse with one hand, and followed behind Shen Cha in a chic way, "This is the first time you've come out alone, Mr. It's normal to be worried and worried about Master Hou."

"Let's solve the problem as soon as possible and go back as soon as possible. I don't really want to stay in Wuma Town." Shen Cha raised an eyebrow, "Xiao Wu, how long will it take us to arrive in Wuma Town?"

"At our current speed, half an hour at most."

"Speed ​​up, we must arrive within half an hour."

"Yes!"

A group of people hurried and hurried, and finally arrived at Wuma Town before You hour.

"General, military adviser, Doctor Jin!" Ying Liu, who had been waiting for a long time, led the brothers stationed in Wuma Town by Daxia, and when they saw Shen Cha and others coming, they stepped forward to salute.He nodded towards Mei Zhu, Mei Lin, and Ying Wu, and stretched out his hand to grab the reins of Shen Cha's horse. "Boss, General Yelu Zesheng from the Liao Kingdom and General Wanyan Zhanxiong from the Jin Kingdom have arrived. They are waiting for you at Qingfeng Tea House."

"Okay!" Shen Cha got off his horse handsomely, and handed the whip to Ying Liu, "Make a good settlement for the brothers in the Pioneer Battalion!"

"Are you going now? Won't you take a break?"

"Xiao Liu, you don't know about that!" Jin Jing hadn't seen Ying Liu for a long time, she walked over and put her arms around his shoulders, and said cheerfully, "Your boss wants to solve the case here as soon as possible, go back to the city, There are people waiting at home."

"Master Guo and Master Hou?" Ying Liu patted the paw on his shoulder, and gave Jin Jing a big white eye, "That's right, it will be New Year's Eve in a few days, and it's time for a reunion dinner .”

"Wrong answer!" Jin Jingqi reluctantly put his paw on Ying Liu's shoulder again, and whispered in his ear, "Marshal Qin Zheng and Deputy Marshal are back."

"Really?" Ying Liu looked at Jin Jing in surprise, completely forgetting the hand on his shoulder, "Great! Our boss has missed him for several years, and he is finally willing to come back! Reconcile with Yan Bo Yet?"

"Well, everything went very well!"

"That's good, that's good!" Ying Liu nodded frequently, "The boss's heart knot is finally untied, it's great!"

"Speaking of which, what's the situation on your side?" Jin Jing looked at Shen Cha and Jin Miaomiao who were walking in the front, "Is there anyone who doubts?"

"We suspect..." Ying Liu said in a low voice, "The people in the posthouse didn't tell the truth, and... the corpse looks very strange. I don't know how to describe it, and I don't know how to say it. You will know after a while. "

The brothers from the Pioneer Camp who came with Shen Cha were temporarily placed in the Daxia Posthouse in Wuma Town. Shen Cha and Jin Jing took Ying Wu and Ying Liu to the Qingfeng Tea House in the public area.

"General Shen, Military Adviser Jin!" Waiting at the door of the teahouse to greet Shen Cha were Yelu Zesheng's deputy Wu Sa and Wanyan Zhanxiong's deputy Babu.They saw Shen Cha and Jin Jing saluting one after another, "You two have worked hard all the way, my general is waiting on the second floor. This way please!"

Shen Cha and Jin Jing took Ying Wu and Ying Liu into the teahouse with Wu Sa and Babu, went up to the second floor of the teahouse, and saw Yelu Zesheng and Wanyan Zhanxiong sitting on both sides of a large table, and Shen Cha Cha and Jin Jing stood up from their chairs at the same time.

"Shen Cha met the two generals!"

"Jin Jing met the two generals!"

In terms of seniority, Yelu Zesheng and Wanyan Zhanxiong belonged to Qin Zheng's generation, while Shen Cha and Jin Jing were both juniors, so out of politeness, they had to pay respects first.

"You two virtuous nephews don't need to be too polite!" Yelu Zesheng helped Shen Cha and Jin Jing up before Wanyan Zhanxiong, "It's really helpless to invite these two virtuous nephews here at this time, and I still want you two Nephew, forgive me!"

"I said Yelu, are you guilty of being so anxious to make friends? I'm afraid that the two virtuous nephews will find out the real culprit and make your Liao Kingdom lose face. You won't be able to explain to your regent when you go back!" Slowed down a step Wanyan Zhanxiong looked at Shen Cha with a smile, and then at Jin Jing, "It's been a long time, you two nephews, you look pretty good!"

"Aren't you making friends?" Yelu Zesheng asked Shen Cha and Jin Jing to sit down on the chair in the middle, "We are not the same, so don't talk about each other. Since this case has been entrusted to two virtuous nephews, we You just need to tell what you know honestly. Who is the murderer and who is suspected? It is up to the two nephews to judge, and we cannot interfere." He looked at Yan Zhanxiong, "General Wanyan ,What do you think?"

"Okay, I agree!"

"Since the two of you have the same ideas, from now on, we will take over the case." Jin Jing looked at the two generals and smiled at them, "We have nothing else to ask, only the two generals and the Liao The people involved in the case, Jin and Jin countries, promise that everything they say to us is true and credible, and there can be no falsehood!"

"Of course, that's for sure!" The two old generals looked at each other, "We'll know everything without saying anything."

"Okay!" Shen Cha asked Ying Wu to take out a pen and paper, "The first question is for General Wanyan, are you sure that the special envoy who died is Wanyan and Wen?"
