So I play chess

Chapter 75
Li Mao received the order, not daring to delay, so he went to invite Li Xun.

Wen Liang saw that the eldest lady mentioned Li Xun, and saw that she had no intention of doing other orders, so he simply reported to the people in Yang's mansion.

"Miss, those people sent by Zheng Tong also asked some questions today."

The reason why Wen Gupu laid down the past was nothing more than wanting to clean up the spies from Beiyu in Tongcheng later.As for Liu Ruobai and others, it was because of this incident that another incident arose, and new troubles were in front of them, so they didn't take it to heart for the time being.

It's just that it will take some time for Li Mao to go back and forth, so he can listen to it for a while and ask Wen Liang to talk.

"The ones sent by Zheng Tong, besides the ones for the eldest lady, Li Mao and Zhou Tong each have their own. Old Zhao and a few commanders who have shown their faces on the side of the city defenders are also stuffed. Now take them together. In the Yang Mansion, there are a total of 82 people."

"Are there so many?" Wen Gu was not surprised at all, but when he heard the number, he suddenly had an idea.

Wen Liang continued: "Yes, there are even two maidservants among them, for Li Xun."

Wen Gu said with a smile: "Zheng Tong has lived a long time, but he is thoughtful and appropriate."

Then Zheng Tong definitely thinks that Li Xun is only temporarily committing himself to her, and that Mr. Xiao Lang will benefit from her, and then go to pamper his beautiful lady.Zheng Tong will naturally be able to please both sides, and if there is any news, the two places can also get a response together.

Seeing that the eldest lady was not annoyed, Wen Liang said again: "These people have asked them together, and judging from their responses, it seems that they have been prepared for a long time. It should be Zheng Tong's impromptu idea, and they came one by one."

This is also normal, even if the Liangzhou army first entered Tongcheng on the surface, it has just been more than a month.

Before that, Tongcheng was ruled by Yang Wantang.Zheng Tong had no chance, or no need, to raise so many at one go.

Wen Gu didn't interrupt, and Wen Liang reported the details one by one.

Not all of the 82 people in this group came from Zheng Tong's hands. Including the Wang family, the historian of the Sun family, they all came from their own.

Even among the men sent to Wen Gu, three were from the Sun family and two were from historians.

The Wang family originally wanted to stuff people in, but Zheng Tong refused.In the end, a few more women had to be stuffed and sent to other commanders' houses.

But here is also quite strange, this matter was obviously arranged by the Zheng family, but among these people, there were as many as 30 people who were sent by the Sun family.

When Wen Gu heard this, he just wrote it down secretly, and Wen Liang continued.

The names of these people are naturally fake, and their backgrounds are also different.

For example, Liu Ruobai's original surname was Zheng, and he was the illegitimate son of the eldest son of the Zheng family's six-bedroom master and his maidservant, and he was always ashamed of it.

Liu Ruobai's biological mother had always wanted to ask for a title, and now that she had this opportunity, she used her son for use. Although Liu Ruobai herself was unwilling, she could only do so.

This is considered to be a good family background, in addition to some of the original maids and servants, there are also some criminal slaves who have been imprisoned before, the maids who sing in Washeri, and the flower girls who were born in the Goulan, and so on.

Speaking of this, Wen Gu asked again: "Is there any master or young master's concubine in the house?"

Wen Liang replied, "There are."

After speaking, he brought up the origins of these people one by one. Wen Gu listened, but found that none of them belonged to the Sun family.

In addition, there are 25 six people who only say that they are refugees from Anping, Guangyang, and ask in detail, but they can't even explain their identities clearly.

Only then did Wen Gu become interested: "The ones whose identities are unclear, who are they all from?"

Wen Liang replied: "This is the strange thing. These people were all sent by the Sun family. And each person's house sent a few."

Wen Gu's thoughts became clear just now, and he asked again: "How do these people look like?"

Wen Liang is really not very good at judging appearance, so he could only reply: "It's not bad."

Wen Gu said: "Is it sent by the Sun Mansion, especially good?"

Wen Liang thought for a while, and said: "Among the ones sent by each family, there are always three or five that are very conspicuous, but if we distinguish them in this way, the ones from the Sun family are indeed the most outstanding. The young lady has seen that womanly Liu Ruoyu. It was sent by the Sun family."

Wen Gu nodded, instead of asking Wen Liang again, he asked Zhou Tong: "Zhou Dutong, if we go down and look for it now, how many men with this appearance can we find?"

When Zhou Tong heard this, he immediately raised his head and chest, straightened his face, and replied loudly: "Miss! Our Liangzhou army's sons and daughters are all majestic! Don't lose to them."

After speaking, he still felt that he was not standing straight enough, so he raised his head slightly, but his eyes were looking straight ahead, not daring to look directly at Wen Gu.

Seeing his appearance, Wen Gu smiled and said, "Needless to say that Zhou Dutong is majestic, what if he is only looking for someone like Liu Ruobai?"

"Miss, if you want to find someone like that..." Zhou Tong lost his strength all of a sudden, "Maybe he can find two or three...or five or six!"

Wen Gu nodded, and then looked at Wen Liang: "Uncle Wen, if we were still in Liangzhou, if we were looking for men and women with such looks in Liangzhou, how many would we be able to find in a short time if we didn't make a big fuss?"

"Liangzhou naturally has them. If we search freely, it may be far more than this amount, but if we act secretly, I'm afraid we won't be able to find too many in a short time." Wen Liang replied.

"That's it. We have always treated the people of Liangzhou kindly. But Tongcheng has been bullied by Yang Wantang all year round. In addition to the blood-sucking Yang Wantang, there are also meat-eating people like Zheng Tong. We knew when we took care of Yang Wantang. In Tongcheng, those who are pretty are rarely able to stay safely. Even if they are not with Yang Wantang, most of them are in the families of various big families."

Wen Liang could hear some clues: "But the ones they sent, which were originally in each mansion, were less than half of them."

Wen Gu said: "Since each family wants to send, it must send some heavy letters, or someone like Liu Ruobai who has been taken advantage of. It is really easy to waste this time by picking people from outside. Besides , under our noses, they did not look for someone with great fanfare."

Wen Liang said: "Miss suspects that they sent these people, is there something else wrong?"

Wen Gu said: "I originally designed a plan to get entangled with Mr. Zheng and the others. I wanted to go through a few twists and turns and find out some spies from Beiyu in the future, but I gave them another one by accident. Opportunity. Send people directly to me."

When Wen Liang heard that it was about Beiyu, he immediately became nervous: "I'll go and interrogate them again."

Wen Gu knew that he had said this, and Wen Liang naturally understood how powerful he was, but although he had the means, he might not be able to understand the deeper twists and turns, so he urged: "Let's come together when Li Mao comes back."
