So I play chess

Chapter 77 Speculation
Wen Gu once heard the magistrate Gong and Jin Wan of Qianlong County talk about Li Xun's past. Hearing what he said now, some news might be right, so he asked, "Where did this old woman and young lady come from?" Is it from Lianzhou?"

Li Xun nodded: "That's right. That's all I know, the rest is up to you to figure out."

Wen Gu was not in a hurry to end the questioning, it seemed that she would definitely go to Lianzhou, and the two people mentioned by Li Xun must also meet each other, so he asked, "Do you know their identities?" ? What is the last name?"

Li Xun was about to leave, but at this moment when she asked her, his expression was obviously strange, although he quickly covered it up, Wen Gu still noticed it.

"I only know that the old woman's surname is Xia. I don't know about her identity." Li Xun said.

Surname Xia?Wen Gu immediately thought of Xu Zhongyan scolding the palace, and asked directly, "Is your name Xia Qingtong?"

Li Xun replied "I don't know".Wen Gu deliberately asked him again if he knew the name of the little lady, but Li Xun still replied "I don't know".

But immediately after returning, he added: "It was the old woman surnamed Xia who talked to me that day, and the origin of her name was just mentioned casually. They just asked me to do a job, so there is no need to ask so many questions."

Wen Gu thought to himself, this Li Xun's ability to tell lies is not very good, originally he only talked about the old woman, but not the young lady, but the same two sentences "I don't know", but they are also different.

When she was still in Tongcheng, she had too many opportunities to distinguish the truth from the falsehood of a person's words, so she had some experience.At this moment, it seems that although Li Xun has confessed something, he still has something to hide.

Wen Gu asked him when this happened, and Li Xun only answered four or five years ago.

Wen Gu thought about it briefly. Four or five years ago, apart from Wei Guo being destroyed by Bei Yu, he couldn't think of any other special things related to him.

This matter still needs careful consideration, and there is no rush.

The person who asked had probably already said hello, Li Xun didn't say anything else, and Wen Gu left on his own.

According to Li Xun's words, Wen Gu made some guesses and came up with two things.

First, when Ling Guangjun Xia Qingtong came to Li Xun back then, one of his real intentions was probably to teach him to regret chess like this, maybe it had something to do with himself today.

Wen Gu originally kept these miraculous things at arm's length, but since she had such a thing in her body, even if she didn't believe it at first, now she believes it more or less.And Ling Guangjun happens to be the god of Southern Chu, she must know about this.

But Li Xun did not talk endlessly about this matter. Liu Zhu found out that Miao Zhu who adopted Li Xun had the same surname as Ling Guangjun. At that time, he didn't think there was anything wrong. Mr. Guang may not know each other, but he must have known the little lady from Lianzhou.

Jin Wan said that Miao Zhu also raised a baby girl, who was later kidnapped.Looking at it accordingly, I am afraid it is the little lady.

The connection is probably like this, and the inside story may not be known until I meet Ling Guangjun in the future.

Second, even Li Xun himself didn't know about it.Xu Zhongyan scolded the palace and revealed the identity of Ling Guangjun, so Tang Xianyao wanted to save his life, but Tang Mingyi wanted to kill him.

And Li Xun had met Ling Guangjun, and knew the background of a woman next to Ling Guangjun. He was afraid that because of this, Tang Xianyao would take his life, but Tang Mingyi wanted to protect him.

The difference between the two is that one makes the secret known to the public, while the other still has the secret left unsaid.

In addition, Tang Xianyao was not in the same heart as Ling Guangjun, so Ling Guangjun wanted to kill Xu Zhongyan, but wanted to protect Li Xun.

This behavior seems reasonable, but in fact it is very wrong.

Xu Zhongyan scolded the palace because of Ling Guangjun's edict, but the words have been spoken and spread to everyone. If he is punished openly and squarely, it will be a display of might and virtue, but now he sends people to assassinate him. It was the wrath of the gods, but it seemed to be a personal revenge.

This matter is not done by others, but by the prince himself, which is even more strange.

The inside story of this matter is only speculated based on the existing information, and it may be difficult to come up with a result.

But in any case, Xu Zhongyan is on his way to Tongcheng, if Ling Guangjun wants to kill him, maybe there will be other arrangements later.

Thinking of this, Wen Gu went straight out, asked Zhixia to wake up Zhou Tong who was dozing in the wing room, and asked him to count 3000 troops, hide out of the city through the four city gates, disperse and hide, under the command of Lao Zhao, and be on standby at any time.

There is no war in Tongcheng now, so there is no need to defend the city.Xu Zhongyan is about to arrive in Tongcheng, and the people sent by the Southern Chu court will also enter the city soon, the former will naturally cause trouble, and the latter must not only do superficial things.

In case there were experts who followed Xu Zhongyan into the city, or people from the Southern Chu Military Department had any request to patrol the camp, they would find such a huge change in the number of soldiers and horses in the city.Presumably everyone will be suspicious.

If Wen Gu can ask Wenliang and Li Mao to interrogate Liu Ruobai and the others, those people from Lianzhou must also be able to ask about the origins of these Liangzhou soldiers.

There are bound to be mistakes in every carelessness, and only carefulness can be perfect.

In this chaotic world, those who can stand on an inch of land under their feet have their own means and skills.Although Wen Gu has far more opportunities than others to know these things, but because of this, he will not look down on others.

Zhou Tong yawned and took the order, and went to the barracks to discuss with Lao Zhao.The next day Tongcheng lost [-] Liangzhou troops.

Everyone in Tongcheng had their own affairs, and Wen Gu was still waiting for Xu Zhongyan to enter the city. This time, due to various reasons, many things were delayed for a while compared to the first time.

Wen Gu didn't just wait, since he had nowhere to start, he asked Liu Zhuoxun to look through the county annals of Qianlong and Shangtang counties in the past two days, trying to find out if there were any other strange things in them.

Liu Zhu was very accommodating, not only the county chronicles, but also found two old masters who were familiar with the local conditions for his aunt to send for inquiries.

Maybe Liu Zhu didn't care about these things in the past. He was very busy at first, but he was inexplicably free these two days.

On the one hand, the affairs in the city are generally settled, on the other hand, Zheng Tong and those people, by coincidence, stopped coming to pester them.

They came every day, Liu Zhu thought they were noisy and disturbing, but now that they didn't come, he felt even more uneasy.After waiting for a day, I couldn't bear it anymore, I couldn't even read the paperwork, so I went out of the government office, deliberately without Li Xun, and asked a few assistants to follow me to the door.

When they arrived at the gate of Zheng's mansion, they saw the gate was closed tightly, as if they were hiding from some disaster.Shuzuo went up and knocked for a long time before the doorman opened the door. Seeing that the prefect had come, he hurriedly reported back. After a while, Zheng Tong trotted out to meet him.

As soon as the old man saw Liu Zhu's face, he held his hand tightly, and his voice was full of resentment and grievance: "Master Liu, you have to make the decision for me!"
