Raid

Chapter 95 Postponed
Now, it was Li Sheng's turn to be helpless, her image of being cruel and merciless had penetrated into Tu Chang's heart, no matter how much she promised that she would take Tu Chang's daughter's life into consideration and would not act rashly, he would not trust him easily.

After all, why should a person like "her" ruin her own affairs for an irrelevant civilian girl.

Moreover, she couldn't make any guarantees.Because she didn't know how powerful the people behind the scenes were, and she didn't know how far it would take to act rashly.Perhaps as soon as she searched the mountains, the people behind the scenes would notice and kill Tu Chang's daughter.

There is very little useful news out of Tu Chang's utterances, the only thing that is useful is the sentence telling him to train those dead soldiers.

The function of raising dead soldiers was originally to kill people, but now the people behind the scenes are being trained to make these dead soldiers able to serve as soldiers and generals. It is clear what it is for.

The dead soldiers are loyal and have high martial arts skills. If they become generals, they can lead soldiers. If they form elite soldiers, they can be as good as a hundred.

No matter what the situation is, it's not what Li Shengxi wants to see.

The people behind the scenes want to raise soldiers.If it is to raise soldiers, large-scale conscription is necessary, and money is also indispensable.Needless to say the latter, as for the former, where did so many people come from?
It may be difficult to find so many people in other places, but Lijiang is different. Every year when Lijiang floods, many people will die, especially in Northern Qi. At this time, there will be a large number of population loss.

If it was really Li Rui, then this matter would be terrible. Li Rui has been "dead" for so many years, how many private soldiers can he support in these years?

Tens of thousands of people are completely enough.

Although the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses are not many, they should not be underestimated. At least if these tens of thousands of soldiers fall into her hands, it will be enough for her to separate one side.If there is chaos in the future, these tens of thousands of people are enough to cause chaos.

Although everything was speculation, Li Shengxi had to guard against it.

After returning, in addition to sending a letter to Xu Huan, she also sent a letter to her old department in the local area, asking them to check carefully if there were any people who had suddenly "died" in the army.

Tu Chang said that there is more than one person who trains dead soldiers like him.

In fact, thinking about it carefully, the fact that Tu Chang was imprisoned back then might have been planned by that person.

When Zhan Qirui came to visit, Meng Songyan was dealing with official business.

Hearing that it was Zhan Qirui who came, Meng Songyan was a little surprised.

Speaking of which, he and Zhan Qirui are also related. Zhan Qirui's wife, Mengshi, is the daughter of his clan.In terms of seniority, Zhan Qirui's wife can call him an uncle.

But even so, the two have nothing to do with each other.

Zhan Qirui had sent him a greeting post after he entered Beijing, but he declined because he was busy at that time.Who would have thought that Zhan Qirui would come to the door suddenly today without even saying hello, which is not in line with the style of the children of their aristocratic family.

"I'm busy today, so I'm afraid I don't have time to entertain you." Meng Songyan refused Zhan Qirui's visit, but thinking about his relatives, he told his servants: "Please invite him to the side hall and prepare some refreshments before leaving."

The servant nodded, and after a while, he left and returned, "Meng Gong, he said there is something very important?"

"Important matter?"

The servant nodded, "It's a matter of national importance, I must see you."

"Do you know what's going on?" Meng Songyan asked again.

The servant shook his head, "I don't know, I just saw that he was in a hurry and came over with a food box."

"Forget it, tell him to go to the main hall." After Zhan Qirui finished speaking, he changed his clothes and rushed to the main hall.

This is the first time Meng Songyan sees Zhan Qirui, but it is not the first time that Zhan Qirui sees Meng Songyan.Meng Songyan gives lectures in the clan every New Year's Eve.Thanks to his wife, he also had the opportunity to attend lectures.It's just that Mr. Meng is busy, and he leaves in a hurry after each lecture, and he doesn't even have a chance to ask him for advice.

Seeing Meng Songyan, he hurriedly bowed, "The student has met the grand master."

Meng Songyan waved his hand, "You came to the door today, I wonder if there is something important?"

After being reminded by Meng Songyan, Zhan Qirui immediately stopped all kinds of thoughts in his heart, and the admiration in his eyes was replaced by awe. He presented the food box and broke open the pastry in front of Meng Songyan.

Meng Songyan couldn't help frowning, he didn't understand what Zhan Qirui was doing, until he saw two notes falling from the pastry, his expression suddenly became ugly.

Especially when seeing the second note.

As the chief examiner of this exam, he knows the contents of this note better than anyone else. He looked at Zhan Qirui in surprise, "Where did this come from?"

Seeing Meng Songyan's expression, Zhan Qirui pursed his lips, "The student is eating at Yuanji Restaurant today, and someone came to the student with this food box..."

He explained all the ins and outs of the future, and at the end, he added: "The student knows that this is a serious matter, so he dare not act recklessly, so he has to stabilize the person first and buy the test questions. Please take a look, Taifu, is this the test question for this scientific examination?"

Meng Songyan's eyes were solemn, he looked at the words on the note, and then at Zhan Qirui, with more respect in his eyes, he sighed: "Exactly."

After Zhan Qirui entered Beijing, he had heard about all kinds of things. He was talented and strategic, but unfortunately he lost his impatience and couldn't restrain his temper too much. If he was not careful, he would easily develop Gu Lingxu's temper.Now it seems that he is much more measured than Gu Lingxu.

Zhan Qirui turned pale in shock, "Then what should we do? Zhan is not talented, and he claims to be well-known. This person sells the test questions to Zhan's family. It can be seen that the test questions have been widely circulated. I wonder if there are spare test questions?"

"Have."

"That's good." Zhan Qirui heaved a sigh of relief.

"It's just that one copy of the test questions can be leaked, so how do you know that the second one hasn't been leaked?" Meng Songyan looked serious.There are not many people who can reach out to the test questions. If those people can get the original test questions, how can they know that they can't get the spare test questions?

There are not many people who have read the test questions, he counts as one, and the Holy One counts as one.Then the test questions were sealed and no one touched them.

If any of the assistant examiners has touched the test questions, it is unlikely that the test questions are all sealed. Once someone has touched it, one can tell the clue at a glance.

Those who leaked the exam questions were unlikely to be those assistant examiners.Then there is only myself and the Holy One.

I have never disclosed the exam questions. As for the Holy One, how is that possible?

No, I know...

Meng Songyan realized it all at once, he glanced at Zhan Qirui, Zhan Qirui has been in the limelight since he entered Beijing, how could the person who sells the exam questions let his subordinates not look at him and send them to him.

In the current situation, there is only one possibility, someone wants to use Zhan Qirui's hand to send the news to him.

Maybe it was because the strategist discovered something and it was difficult to convey the news that he chose such a method.

"Then what should I do?" Zhan Qirui's originally let go heart hangs here.His eyes fell on the figure that was enough to represent the entire Shilin, and his eyes were full of worry. If so, wouldn't he have to postpone the test?
