Qin Gong

Chapter 181 Interview in Lu's Mansion, a sudden conflict. (4K, [-]-in-[-])

With a nearly three-day trip, by the time Bai Yan, Ye and others arrived in Yuzhong, the news of Feng Quji's appointment had already spread.

"The new sheriff has arrived! I heard it's Feng Quji."

"Then Yang Xian has been the governor of Shangjun for fifteen years! Is he leaving now?"

"It must be gone. You didn't see it. Right now, outside the gate of the Sheriff's Mansion, there are rich businessmen of the gentry with gifts. Those boxes are full of money!"

In the city, a lot of people talked about it, and they always looked around when they spoke, as if they were worried about being heard by others.

But the funny thing is, on the noisy street, almost most of the people are talking about the sheriff's affairs.

When he came to the city, Bai Yan heard the people's discussion, thought about it, and got off his horse.

"Ye, go to the Commandant's Mansion first, and leave the things with General Hu Jin. I'll go to Lu's Mansion first."

Bai Yan handed the rope to Ye, and then took out the token that he had prepared from his bosom.

From the mouths of the common people, it is not difficult for Bai Yan to know that the gates of the county guard's mansion are all dignitaries from the gentry who came to congratulate them.

Qin State Minister Feng Quji is behind the famous Feng family, not to mention that the Feng family is distributed in Qin and Zhao, and there are many civil servants and generals.

Even now that Feng Quji is going to serve as the governor of the county, he is in charge of an important position in the county. If you think about it for a while, you will know that the nobles and dignitaries who came to congratulate are definitely not just from Yuzhong.

Even in other counties adjacent to Shangjun, some well-informed gentry would send people to Yuzhong, Shangjun.

If you think about it in this way, you can see how many people there are. Not to mention the more than [-] city guards in Shangjun, even the other gentry and dignitaries can crowd the county guard's mansion.

People are crowded.

Bai Yan still wanted to wait for the lively momentum to pass, and find an opportunity to discuss it in detail.

Right now there are so many people in the Sheriff's Mansion, instead of waiting in front of the Sheriff's Mansion, and then going to the Sheriff's Mansion to hang out, it's better to go to Lu's Mansion first.

Wait until later to go to the Sheriff's Mansion!

Unlike other city guards, Gao Nu has just been rebuilt, and he has a lot of things to deal with in Gao Nu, so it is normal for him to come to Yuzhong later.

"promise!"

Ye clasped his hands and nodded, then looked at the carriage that had already entered the city behind, turned around and left with Huai and Peck on horseback.

Bai Yan looked at the backs of Ye and others leaving, put on the sword in his arms, and made sure that there was no problem after wrapping the scabbard, so Bai Yan turned his head and looked at the carriage behind Master Xu.

An hour later.

In front of the gate of Lu Mansion.

As the carriage stopped slowly, Master Xu, who was sitting in the carriage, slowly walked out of the carriage, looked at Lu Mansion in front of him, and then looked at Bai Yan who was walking behind.

Seeing Bai Yan's foolish appearance, Master Xu had a strange look in his eyes.

If she hadn't known that the young man who was walking behind the carriage was Bai Yan, the guard of Gaonu City, and the commander of the iron cavalry, she would not have been able to see that Bai Yan looked like a son of a noble family or a general from head to toe.

"Please!"

After getting off the carriage, Master Xu said to Bai Yan, and stretched out his hand to signal Bai Yan to follow her.

Bai Yan nodded.

Seeing that the servants of the mansion did not stop Master Xu, Bai Yan knew that Lu Sheng must have already greeted the servants.

Seeing this, Bai Yan followed Master Xu and walked into the Lu residence.

Within the Lu Mansion, the courtyard is not big, let alone the Lu Mansion in Xianyang, even Gao Nu's city guard mansion before, is bigger than the Lu Mansion.

But after entering the mansion, Bai Yan found that the Lu Mansion was really willing to spend money on maids and servants, not to mention the Lu Mansion in Xianyang, even the small Lu Mansion in front of him, at a glance, there are more than ten people Maid, servant.

"This way!"

Master Xu walked in front, leading the way for Bai Yan.

Bai Yan followed Master Xu through a courtyard, and then came to a main hall.

At this moment, no one was seen in the main hall, Bai Yan came to a wooden seat under Master Xu's signal, and sat down slowly.

"General, Lu Sheng should go to the county guard's mansion with his clansmen, but he hasn't returned yet! The servants have already reported to Lu Sheng."

When Master Xu was next to Bai Yan, adding teacups, he murmured softly.

Bai Yan nodded.

Seeing Master Xu pouring tea for him, looking at him cautiously, Bai Yan's eyes were a little strange, with a little smile on his face.

To tell the truth, if such a cowardly Master Xu hadn't said that he is a poison master, Bai Yan would not believe anything he said.

Picking up the tea poured by Master Xu, Bai Yan took a sip carefully.

Although Master Xu is good at poison, Bai Yan is still at ease with Master Xu. Firstly, he has no enmity with Master Xu. Second, Master Xu has a request for her. Poison.

For all kinds of reasons, Bai Yan believed in Master Xu.

Moreover, Bai Yan thinks differently from other people, he doesn't need to be suspicious, and he is not suspicious of employing people. Although Xu Shi's identity, even he is a little flustered, but since he decided to use Xu Shi, he must give Xu Shi his trust. Because of his status, he has a grudge against Master Xu.

If you are not at ease, then it is better not to use Master Xu, self-defeating, and being provoked by others, Bai Yan has seen more than others.

Bai Yan is more inclined to bring Master Xu with him in the future.

Although poison masters are terrifying, if they are not used, it would be a pity if they are accidentally used by others.

In the future, if someone wants to poison him, wanting to be like Bai Yu, with Master Xu around, maybe he can save his life.

But speaking of it, Bai Yan looked at Master Xu and felt a little regretful, if Master Xu was good at medicine, it would be great, so not only is it poisonous, but he doesn't have to worry about getting sick.

After half an hour.

While Bai Yan was waiting to be bored, he suddenly heard hurried footsteps coming from outside the main hall, and then Lu Sheng, whom he had met once, appeared outside the door.

But next to Lu Sheng, apart from Chu Kai's servants, there was also a middle-aged man, a boy, and a girl.

see.

Bai Yan got up in a hurry, looked at Lu Sheng, and slowly cupped his hands.

"Yan, I've seen the Young Shopkeeper!"

Bai Yan bowed his hands to Lu Sheng.

Speaking of it, Bai Yan was also helpless about Lu Sheng's persistence. Logically, he was already Lu's network, but Lu Sheng was still not satisfied, and he had to completely become his Lu Sheng's network before he could give up.

"Long time no see! Why bother to be polite, sit down!"

When Lu Sheng saw Bai Yan, he bowed his hands very politely in return.

After Bai Yan and Lu Sheng saluted, they looked at the three people who had met once at the Lu's banquet in Xianyang before Yuan Dynasty, and saluted in turn.

As for the middle-aged man, Lu Qi introduced him the last time he was in Xianyang. He was Lu Qi’s uncle, Lu Jia, who had the same name as Meng’s Mengjia. The man and woman behind him were Lu Jia’s children. Ru.

Because we have met and greeted each other last time, so we are not strangers now.

After a simple salute to each other, they sat down.

"Yan, take the liberty of coming to the mansion to disturb me today!"

After Bai Yan was seated, he bowed his hands to Lu Jia again as a respect, after all, here, Lu Jia is not only Lu Sheng's uncle, but also the head of the family here.

"Why bother me? Haha, you should come here often!"

Lu Jia smiled and waved his hands.

As a member of the Lu clan, Lu Jia had also competed since he was a child. Although he could not compete with other brothers and finally came to Shangjun, in terms of communication, Lu Jia was also very experienced.

When he was in the Lu Mansion in Xianyang, Lu Jia knew that this boy was also named Yan, he was from the Qi Kingdom, and he also held the elder sister's jade pendant, which should have been given by the elder sister's daughter Feiyan.

of course.

These are not important to Lu Jia, this jade pendant just proves that the young man and Feiyan have a very close relationship.

What Lu Jia really valued was that this boy had the same name as Na Bai Yan, and that he could get in touch with Na Bai Yan.

For the same name, Lu Jia has a deep feeling, because he has benefited a lot from having the same name with the middle-class son Meng Jia, and Meng Jia has also been his greatest reliance in the past few decades.

Don't look at Meng Jia's age now, but Meng Jiake has always won the favor of the current king.

Inside the main hall.

Due to Bai Yan's arrival, a lot of food and drinks were served in the mansion soon.

During the conversation, Bai Yan also learned that the county guard's mansion is indeed as crowded as he thought.

"Lu Jia once met Governor Feng once, and there are so many people at the moment, we can only find another day to visit the mansion!"

Lu Jia shook his head and smiled wryly.

Although it was a wry smile, Bai Yan who was sitting at the bottom of the main hall couldn't hear the sense of superiority in Lu Jia's words, both inside and outside the words implied that he had something to do with Feng Quji.

"Master Lu really has a wide network of people, which makes me admire him!"

Bai Yan cupped his hands to Lu Jia and said, borrowing the slope to get off the donkey.

"Yan, you have my eldest sister, Yupei, and you have a very close relationship with my Lu family. If you need it in the future, you can come to Lu's mansion!"

Lu Jia smiled and waved his hands, then looked at Bai Yan.

Let's talk about jade pendant first, then draw in the relationship, and finally agree, this one before and one after, plus that sentence implying that it has something to do with Feng Junshou.

Lu Sheng and Lu You sipped their tea calmly, seeing Bai Yan's surprised look from the corner of their eyes, they knew that the matter had come to an end.

"Yan, when the Xiongnu and the Yue clan went south, are you in Gaonu? Do you know what happened that day?"

At this time, Lu Sheng saw that the heat was about the same, so he asked.

Bai Yan nodded.

Afterwards, when Lu Sheng asked about what happened at that time, Bai Yan didn't hide anything, but told the story slowly.

Cup after cup of tea.

After a long time.

Finished with Bai Yan's words.

"Hiss, that General Bai is worthy of being a disciple of the Bai family. He leads the army and plans, and all of them have the demeanor of Lord Wu An in the past!"

Lu Sheng sighed, full of shock.

Although he had heard of it before, it was no longer as shocking as when he first heard about it, but now he couldn't help sighing, it was true.

"Yan, do you remember that when he was in the restaurant in the past, Lu Sheng had a longing for General Bai."

Lu Sheng suddenly looked at Bai Yan: "Hearing about Gao Nu's battle right now, Lu Sheng's blood boils, I wonder if I can introduce General Bai to Lu Sheng, so that I can witness the demeanor of General Bai."

Lu Sheng's words made Lu Jia and Lu You look over one after another, and even the eyes on Lu Ru's pretty face were full of anticipation.

Back then, when many women in the city scolded Bai Yan, she was the only one who believed in General Bai, because she saw General Bai's responsibility.

If it was at the beginning, it was because she learned about Bai Yan from other people and other women, but after feeling the responsibility behind the relocation order, for the first time, she felt admiration in her heart.

Then, when everyone heard that the Xiongnu and Yuezhi's [-] troops were going south, they turned pale with fright, while she was panicked, she also quietly let out a sigh of relief.

Because, she didn't see the wrong person.

Finally, I learned that General Nabai led [-] cavalry to fight to the death with [-] horses from the Xiongnu and the Yuezhi, and they never retreated to protect Shangjun.

As a woman, she could no longer control herself, and the admiration in her heart instantly turned into admiration.

It was an emotion she had never felt before.

Which woman would not want to marry such a strong man, such an indomitable general.

Inside the main hall.

Facing everyone's eyes, Bai Yan heard that Lu Jia said that we have a very close relationship, and that Lu Sheng didn't say a word of promise, but all of his words hinted at what he had promised when he was in the restaurant.

For this scene, Bai Yan had long been mentally prepared.

Even when Lu Jia mentioned the jade pendant just now, Bai Yan was waiting for Lu Sheng to speak.

"Gaonu City is being burned right now, and everything is waiting to be built. Where is the general, I'm afraid I won't be able to spare time! I wonder if it can be postponed for a while?"

Bai Yan thought for a moment, then shook his head with embarrassment, then looked at Lu Sheng.

Bai Yan's words surprised both Lu Jia and Lu Sheng, and they frowned slightly.

Both Lu Jia and Lu Sheng knew that Yan hadn't lied to them, and they naturally knew about Gaonu City. Even Lu Jia and his children had always settled in Gaonu before, and now it was because Gaonu was burned that the city was delayed. Did not go back.

But these two days! ! !

"Master Feng is going to take office, so General Bai won't come to Yuzhong City?"

Lu Jia looked at Bai Yan and asked, if this is the case, then General Bai is too 'reclusive'.

Master Xu held the teapot and knelt beside the wooden table. After pouring tea into the wooden cups on the table, he heard Lu Jia's words and glanced at the young man in front of him calmly.

Then he put down the teacup, and after returning to the side of the young man, Mei Mou calmly looked at the people around him.

this moment.

Looking at the appearances of Lu Sheng, Lu You, and even Lu Jia, Master Xu knew that they would never have imagined that it was Bai Yan who was talking to them at this moment!Chief of cavalry.

"No!"

Bai Yan looked at Lu Jia and shook his head.

"The general is coming to Yuzhong this time, and he has other important matters. I'm afraid he really can't get away."

After finishing speaking, Bai Yan lowered his head slightly, as if he had made up his mind, raised his head with righteousness, and promised: "Yan, although I can't recommend generals now, but in the future when the Lu family needs it, Yan will definitely find a way."

Bai Yan said a word.

It made Lu Jia and Lu Sheng look helpless.

Seeing Bai Yan's loyal expression, they couldn't say anything.

Lu You sighed inwardly. Regarding the matter of making friends with Bai Yan, it is obvious that this young man's path is currently unworkable.

Then Lu You looked at the lost look of the little girl, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

Not to mention Shangjun.

Even if I went to Xianyang, after hearing about the famous disciples of the Meng family, Li family, Wang family, etc., the little girl looked down on none of them, even the Meng family and the Li family. Bai Yan was very caring.

"Yan, that"

Just when Lu Sheng was not reconciled and wanted to ask General Bai what he wanted to do, suddenly a servant hurried in.

"Patriarch! Not far from the mansion, two men, after a dispute with the cavalry, suddenly crashed into a wall and died."

After the servant entered the main hall, he cupped his hands at Lu Jia and said.

"what?"

"Outside the gate of the mansion, did you have a dispute with the cavalry?"

Lu Jia and Lu Sheng were puzzled when they heard what the servant said.

Just when Lu Jia and Lu Shi thought it was a trivial matter, it was just an accident.

"Someone wants to slander General Bai!!"

Lu Ru on the side suddenly spoke.

Lu Ru's words made Lu Jia, Lu Sheng, Lu You, and even Master Xu turn their heads to look at them. They didn't understand why Lu Ru suddenly said that someone wanted to slander General Bai.

Just because of a dispute with cavalry?
"Today's incident must have been planned for a long time. The purpose is to wait until Mr. Feng arrives in Yuzhong to serve as the county guard, so as to make things worse."

Lu Ru looked at her father and said slowly: "The person who made this plan knows that General Hu Jin, the county lieutenant, is in Yuzhong. If it is normal, there will be no big trouble, and it will not spread."

While thinking and analyzing, Lu Ru made intermittent guesses.

"The purpose of this person. It is very likely that he wants to put General Bai out of the conversation, maybe he does not want General Bai to be promoted, or to let General Bai take charge of more soldiers and horses! What could it be?"

After Lu Ru's doubtful voice fell.

When Master Xu heard Lu Ru's words, he immediately looked at the young man beside him.

At this moment, Bai Yan looked at Lu Ru in surprise.

Bai Yan knew that someone wanted to harm him because he knew about Mi Qi's existence and that Bai's offended many people.

But from Lu Ru's point of view, without knowing anything, he could think of so many things at once.

"Who would that be?"

Lu Jia was a little confused by his daughter's words. In terms of the Cold War, he was indeed not as careful and astute as his daughter.

Although the daughter is all guessing, it sounds like it does make sense.

Because what my daughter said is correct, no matter whether Bai Yan did it or not, as long as it has something to do with cavalry, the world will mention Bai Yan.

"Either it's in Xianyang Chaotang, or it's Zhao Guo!"

　Jing Ke assassinated Qin Zhong, and Jing Ke bribed Meng Jia, the concubine son of the middle school, and the favorite minister of Yingzheng.

　　Among the sheriffs of Shangjun, after Yang Xian, it was Feng Quji, who later became prime minister.
