So I play chess

Chapter 37
Everyone knows the status of Zhaohua Hall in Southern Chu.

The stories about Xu Zhongyan, most of the ordinary people don’t go into the details. According to them, this young student in Tongcheng must have overcome all difficulties with his extraordinary intelligence, and finally stood at the place that symbolizes the peak of Chu’s power. Justice scolded those impassioned words awe-inspiringly.

The harder things are, the funnier the tales are.

However, the truth is not so simple.

"Miss is very insightful. The students who entered Lianzhou this time didn't even go to the Changming Palace. They went back and forth in the Ministry of Rites a few times, and now more than half of them have returned to their hometowns." Li Mao replied.

Wen Gu pondered and said: "That's it, how did he go, who coaxed him to go, how did he know Ling Guangjun's name, these are still confused."

Li Mao's expression also straightened up a bit, and he said: "I have already sent people to investigate, and they are well hidden, and I haven't found a clue yet."

This sentence can be regarded as a reply to Wen's past, and it can also be regarded as asking her what she means.

Wen Gu still doesn't know how the secret guard works, but she knows that if she asks them to investigate a difficult matter, the secret guard will definitely present the truth of the matter to her in the end.

But the price behind this is the number of lives of the hidden guards.

Wen Gu said: "However, these are not the key points. The key point is that there are some important people in Nanchu who want to make some troubles."

Li Mao is quite special among the dark guards. The head of the dark guards assassinates the guards and travels secretly at night.

But Li Mao led more than two hundred people, and took the path of shaking the four realms, opening and closing human feelings, and waiting for changes.Although these people were among the dark guards, and other members of the Liangzhou Army also called them dark guards, there was actually no standardized collective term for them.

Therefore, inside the dark guards, they are generally called "Li Mao's people".

Hearing what Wen Gu said, Li Mao secretly heaved a sigh of relief. If Wen Gu had an order, he would definitely go all out.But these pieces of news are not easy to come by, and it is always good to save some of our own people from dying.

The eldest lady had already thought about it, and it seemed that he didn't need to say more, so Li Mao nodded and said yes.

Wen Gu continued: "We are now in Southern Chu. Although we have the skin of the Tongcheng defenders, we cannot withstand scrutiny after all. I was thinking that Southern Chu is now suffering from internal and external troubles, and I don't care about Tongcheng. For small things, you can take a little breather, but now that Xu Sanlang is from Tongcheng, the fire in Lianzhou might burn to Tongcheng soon."

"That's right, so I have already sent someone over to Qianlong County." Li Mao replied.

Wen Gu nodded: "Don't relax in Tongcheng, you have to do a checkup when you leave the city and enter the city, Zhoudu will make arrangements."

Zhou Tong, who had been listening by the side, saw that the young lady called him by his first name, so he hurriedly said, "Don't worry, young lady, I will definitely..."

Zhou Tong wanted to say a few more words, but was interrupted by Wen Gu: "The news will definitely not come out for nothing, and if it spreads so fast, the information that the people behind it want to spread to the world must be here .With this information, he might be able to figure out where this trouble will come from."

Zhou Tong hurriedly said: "Then Mr. Lao Shizi issued some Lao Shizi order to purify these scholars, do you think that if one person scolds like that, everyone in the world will dare to scold them?"

Wen Gu shook his head: "This is the layer on the outer skin. If that's the case, it would be easy."

Li Mao heard the meaning of these words, and she should have made up her mind, so she simply said, "Miss, please clarify."

"It's not that I don't want to say it, but I'm not sure." Wen Gu spoke slowly, obviously thinking, "If it's just this order and nothing else, the scholars in Southern Chu will definitely not give up. This news The most abrupt thing here is the three words Xia Qingtong."

Li Mao replied: "Ling Guangjun's identity has been checked before, but this is the most secret secret of Dachu, and it is difficult to check. But there is nothing important, so I didn't check it."

Wen Gu said: "Since someone has revealed these three words now, Li Mao, you should go and check and see what you can find out."

Li Mao understood: "Yes, since someone has released the news, maybe they will help us investigate."

Since Wen Gu's rebirth after the catastrophe, he has thrown away most of the etiquette and manners he used to have when he was a lady in the back house.

She has a weird temperament, and she acts more according to her personal likes and dislikes.Now that he is in charge of the Liangzhou army, he is more free on his own in daily life.

Although he was talking about business at the moment, he was not sitting properly, leaning slightly on the chair, and said: "Whether the Liangzhou Army can stabilize in Tongcheng depends entirely on you."

Even so, several people did not dare to neglect, Li Maolian and Wen Liangtong, who had been listening by the side, claimed yes.

But he heard Zhou Tongdao: "Miss, don't worry, there will be no trouble in Tongcheng with the eldest lady in charge."

Zhou Tong didn't know how to speak these words, and the flattery was straightforward.

Li Mao didn't know what happened to them in Qianlong County, but he thought that Zhou Tong was really strange today, and even stole his own words. He wanted to say a few words, but he swallowed them as soon as they reached his mouth.

Wen Gu glanced at him and said, "Zhou Tong, don't you want to invite Li Xunlai? Go ahead and invite him."

Thinking of Wen Liang's words, Zhou Tong thought that Wen Gu was annoying him, and hurriedly said, "No, no, I acted recklessly yesterday, I should have asked Missy first."

Wen Gu withdrew his gaze and said lazily, "What? I didn't say anything, but you wanted to rob someone. I asked you to invite them, but you don't want to?"

Seeing what Wen Gu said, Zhou Tong couldn't figure out whether he understood or not. He looked at Li Mao, then at Wen Liang, and finally fixed his eyes on Zhi Xia, and said, "Then I, go?"

Zhixia gave him a blank look: "Miss let you go!"

Zhou Tong quickly glanced at Wen Gu again, seeing that she didn't stop her, he hurriedly said yes, and walked out the door quickly as if he had been pardoned.

Seeing that Zhou Tong was gone, Zhixia asked, "Miss, what are you going to invite that weirdo for?"

Wen Gu didn't annoy Zhou Tong at all, he just thought Zhou Tong's reaction was funny just now, and now he smiled and said, "When he comes, don't call him that. If Li Xun comes, then County Captain Jin definitely wants to come too." Yes. Taishou Liu lacks a master book, and Tongcheng lacks a patrol inspector, so I can call someone to fill up the two vacancies, isn’t it good?”

When Zhixia heard that the two were going to face each other, he said, "When he comes, won't he annoy that Prefect Liu to death?"

"Thinking about it this way, Li Xun is in Qianlong County, and Xu Sanlang is also in Qianlong County. It's really remarkable that there are two scolding people in this county."

Zhixia burst out laughing, and heard Wen Gu say again: "I also have to find someone to defend myself. If I encounter such a person, I have to have someone to help me fight back."
