Jiapingguan Chronicle

Chapter 529 Wrong direction

After Jin Miaomiao was invited, Hua Yao had achieved the purpose of visiting the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion this time, and he felt a lot more relaxed, not as nervous as before.He sat beside Bai Meng, drank half a cup of tea in small sips, put down the tea bowl in his hand, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Okay, Mr. Jin is in charge of the old grand master's affairs, and you just wait for the appointment of the official department in peace, and pack your luggage." Bai Meng raised the corners of her lips slightly, "This time it's not I know how long I have to go, and I can’t come back in a short time.”

"Commander, my father and my family will be entrusted to you. When you are not busy, just help me take a look."

"It's definitely not a problem. Even if you don't tell me, I will go to see it. After all, I recommend you to follow Liu Shuai. Apart from the Duke and the General, I also have a share, right?" Bai Meng smiled, "You have to be good. If something happens to you, your father will have to work hard with me."

"Don't worry, I will be fine." Hua Yao stretched out his hand and hammered his shoulder twice, "I still thought that when I came back from victory, I would let my father show off in front of me! He always felt that his son was not good enough, Nothing can be done without him. This time, I will show him that it is very responsible for his son to leave his shelter."

"It's great to have this ambition!" Shen Haolin nodded towards Hua Yao, "But do what you can."

"Yes, my lord!"

Seeing Hua Yao's high-spirited look, Shen Haolin and Shen Cha smiled at each other. They hoped that this trip to the southern border could truly make this boy who was raised under the care of his father a responsible and responsible man.

"By the way!" Bai Meng slapped her leg hard, then turned to face Hua Yao, "I was wondering if I had overlooked something, but I suddenly remembered it. Hua Yao, those few days in Wangxin Town God, did you sneak out to play? And you bought a lot of weird gadgets and came back to show off to us? Then, we ignored you, and you still feel aggrieved?"

"I don't feel wronged, I just think that you seem to have something to worry about. Anyway, during the few days in Wangxin Town, it seems that you and your majesty are not in a particularly good mood. And the one who was arrested by the Duke County magistrate Niu always feels arrogant." Hua Yao laughed as he said, "You may not be very clear about that county magistrate Niu, every time he meets His Majesty and the commander-in-chief, he raises his neck, The way he looks at people with his chin and walks sideways is particularly ridiculous. Every time I see him like this, I feel puzzled, the people who are overdoing it are really different from us.”

"You have such a mouth. It's a good thing that Niu county magistrate didn't provoke you. Otherwise, we wouldn't have to arrest him. He would be so angry by you!"

Bai Meng was teased by him, went up and slapped him twice, and kicked him twice by the way.It's a little better for the commander-in-chief, Jin Miaomiao on the opposite side couldn't laugh anymore, if Shen Cha hadn't grabbed her, she would have rolled on the ground.

"Don't be like this, okay? I'm really not kidding with you, he is this image in my eyes." Seeing Jin Miaomiao laughing so hard that he was almost out of breath, Hua Yao curled his lips helplessly and turned his face away Looking at Bai Meng, "Why did the commander suddenly mention this? Is it related to the case you are working on?"

"It's more or less related. Of the few of us, only you have gone out to play, so I want to ask you something." Bai Meng waved his hand at him, "Let me confirm with you first, in Wangxin Town Didn't you reveal your identity when you were here? Did no one know who you were? No one followed you secretly, right?"

"No one followed me, why follow me? I'm not an important person! The people in the post all thought I was a little guard. No one cared about my going in and out. Even when I came back after buying a lot of things, they would ask me Do you want to help hide it, so as not to be scolded!"

"Okay, talented!" Bai Meng looked at Shen Cha, "What does the general think?"

Shen Cha didn't answer, just smiled, raised his chin towards Hua Yao, and asked him to continue talking.

"What do you want to know?" Hua Yao frowned slightly, and counted with his fingers, "After all, I only went out three or two times, and each time did not exceed two hours."

"It's not too little, and it's not too short." Bai Meng rolled her eyes, sighed heavily, and told herself to be patient, and continued, "Did you encounter anything when you were on the street?" Interesting or weird thing?"

"Interesting? Strange?" Hua Yao tilted his head, expressing his confusion, "These two are very different. Which one do you want to know?"

"Talk about it!" Bai Meng moved towards Hua Yao, "Well, it's mainly about Niu County Magistrate and Wu Fei, if there is the county magistrate, or Wangxin Town Daying, you can also talk about it .”

"Oh, this!" Hua Yao held his chin and thought carefully for a while, "If you don't say it, I really can't remember it at all. When you mention it like this, there are a few things that are really strange, and they are all related to you. Those caught have something to do with it. As for me, I am very curious, and I like to wander around when I am in a strange place. Daying, Wangxin Town, has a very important place in my heart. After all, this is the last place in Xijing. A gate. So, I definitely want to see it."

"you go?"

"Of course, on the second day of our arrival, when His Majesty and the commander-in-chief were chatting with the magistrate Niu in the front hall, I slipped out to play. So, I encountered the first strange thing .”

At this point, Hua Yao stopped talking and stared at the tea bowl on the table in a daze, not knowing what he was doing.

Everyone's curiosity was aroused by him, and they could only wait for him, but after waiting for a long time, he did not speak.

"I said, young man, can you come back to your senses?" Bai Meng raised her foot and kicked him, "Hurry up, don't hesitate!"

"Commander, it's been so long, I always have to carefully recall what I heard and saw at that time, and I have to think about how to say it so that you can understand what's going on at once."

"If you have anything to think about, just express exactly what you saw and heard." Bai Meng stretched out her finger and pointed at him, "What we want are details, the more detailed the better, understand? ?”

"Okay, I understand!" Hua Yao raised his hands, indicating that he was wrong, the commander must not be as knowledgeable as him, then cleared his throat, and said, "That's right, after I slipped out, I took a closer look , there were a lot of strange people around, so I chose a place with a little less people. Before I turned a corner, I heard two people talking. I was going to turn around and leave, after all, eavesdropping That's great, but when I heard the commander mentioned in their conversation, I stopped again and found a relatively hidden place to hide."

"There are no followers or guards around these two people?"

"No." Hua Yao shook his head lightly, "I checked it specifically, and it was indeed not there. The two of them should be discussing something more secretive, so they sent away the guards, followers, etc. , wouldn’t this just be cheap for me? If the guards and entourage are all there, wouldn’t I be able to listen?”

"You are amazing!" Bai Meng stretched out her thumb, "What did they say?"

"Well, I can't think of the specifics. It probably means that one person persuades the other to calm down and not be impulsive. The magistrate Niu can handle it himself, and the commander-in-chief will not be suspicious. The person being persuaded is still He was quite worried, saying that he was worried that Chuang'er was young, and he didn't go through this, and he was afraid that he would show his feet. But he couldn't show up, or he would really have to show something." Hua Yao rubbed his chin, "Probably that's what it meant, later The first person persuaded him for a while, and the two left the alley. I waited for them to pass by me, and then I sneaked out my head to take a look. One of them seemed to have inconvenient legs. There seems to be no problem with walking, but I feel a little limp when I walk fast."

"Are you sure?" The other four people looked at each other, Bai Meng grabbed Hua Yao's arm, "Are you sure?"

"Yes, yes, my eyesight is fine." Hua Yao shook off Bai Meng's hand, "Don't be so excited, okay? That person must have a leg problem, and his walking posture is different from that of ordinary people. However, there is one thing that strikes me as strange."

"what's up?"

"The person who made me think that his legs and feet are bad is actually Wu Fei."
