After the whole family was swept away, I lay down flat

Haitang couldn't help being stunned, and asked quickly: "Who is the suspicious person? Someone is eyeing our house?"

"I patrolled around three times before lunch and found five or six people who were acting suspiciously. They all looked familiar, but I didn't see their faces." Hai Chang'an said, "I suspect that these people are all familiar." It's the commander of the Chang'an vanguard and his own soldiers, they are sneaky and must not have good intentions."

Haitang frowned: "These account books are transcripts recorded secretly by the children of the aristocratic families in Chang'an Qianwei's accounting room without telling others. They were secretly sent to the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion, and then the cousin led the veterans of the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion to personally escort the car. It was delivered to our house. Logically speaking, there is no reason for the news to leak out so quickly. How did Du Boqin know that grandpa took over the task of checking the accounts? "

"He may not know that it was his father who took over the accounting job." Hai Chang'an said, "But there are several well-known accounting clerks in the Chang'an area living on this street. Those suspicious people are not just in our house. They are being watched from outside, but also other houses are being watched. It is estimated that they are just observing from outside for now. If someone secretly takes the job, there will be some traces exposed, and then... they may not be exposed. He was watching from outside."

Haitang still felt that something was wrong: "Does Du Boqin know that the Zhenguo government wants to check his accounts from the accounts? Isn't it possible that the son of the aristocratic family in the Chang'an Qianwei accountant suffered from his murderous hands?"

Hai Changan said: "Probably not yet. After I discovered those people, I immediately notified the veterans of the Zhou family who were guarding the safety of our home. They had already gone to check quietly, and the young accountant was still staying well. At home. Commander Du has been as panicked as a frightened bird in recent days. Anyone who holds an important position in the guardhouse, but is not his confidant, will always find some excuse to reprimand them. This son of an aristocratic family is truly worthy of being the one who has been keeping accounts for generations. Human sperm knows that what they have done cannot be known to the commander, so they just accept the punishment and go home to reflect."

As for why Du Boqin knew that the Zhenguo government wanted to check his accounts... He only had a few handles. The only thing that could make the Zhenguo government publicly punish him was nothing more than a shortfall in his accounts. It can't be that he has colluded with important officials in the court, right? Since he knew that the Duke of Zhen was going to take advantage of the account, he would naturally take precautions from the account.

There are many people in Chang'an Qianwei who have "betrayed" him. It is inevitable that some of them will reveal the problems in the accounts, or someone may steal the account books of the guard office, or even someone may have done this a long time ago. There are too many people who have become "rebellious", and Du Boqin can't take precautions against him. It's too late to start taking precautions now. It's better to directly prevent the secrets in the account books from being exposed - it's related to the internal affairs of the Northwest Frontier Army and the Zhenguo Palace. It is impossible to find an accounting office from outside to check the accounts. The only ones that can be found are experts within the guard house. In Chang'an City, there are only a few border military talents who are proficient in accounting skills.

Including Haixiya who had just returned to Chang'an, Du Boqin seemed to have sent people to keep an eye on a dozen of the city's famous military accountants. Everyone sent two personal soldiers to go there. There were few people around him, so he simply didn't even return home and stayed directly in the yamen of Chang'an Qianwei. People who wanted to come to Zhenguo's mansion did not dare to openly break into the yamen to look for him. unlucky.

Hai Changan patrolled the area around his home twice and found five or six suspicious people. He didn't know if the Zhenguo Government would find more after getting the letter. Although these people are just watching outside at the moment, guessing which accounting expert has accepted the entrustment of the Zhenguo government to audit the accounts, but if they really find the most suspicious person, they may break into the house at any time and kill him. All it takes is a fire to eliminate the current threat to their master Du Boqin. As for how the town government will react afterwards? The town government must also have evidence to prove that he did it.

Hai Changan said in a serious tone: "My father advised my cousin to move the account books to the main courtyard. I agree. It is much safer with me in the main courtyard than in the front courtyard. My cousin, Uncle Cao and Uncle Lu are all the same age." When they are older, they have no power to fight back when they encounter bad guys. Even if they can call for help, it will be too late by the time the veterans sent by the Zhenguo Government to the nearby area arrive! There are not many young people in our family, and there are not many strong and prosperous people in our family. They are just proficient in riding and shooting. If they come here overnight, they may not be able to use it. It is too risky to put things in the front yard. If they are moved to the main courtyard, your brother has practiced hard for two years, and it will not be better than Da Zhuang and Chang Nian Qiang can also assist me and work together to repel the attackers."

Unexpectedly, his nephew sneaked away while he was out inspecting the surrounding area. Although he left a younger sister to take care of the account books, Haitang did not leave the house at all times - such as when he went to the front yard to deliver notes or pick up lunch. What if Xiao Xiaomo comes to the door at this time?

Even if Haitang keeps guarding the accounting books, she is just a little girl. When the bad guys come to her door, she can't compare to her brother, who is thick-skinned and thick-skinned, and can withstand a beating...

When Haitang heard this, he couldn't help but protested: "Second uncle, you are looking down on me! My brother has worked hard to learn martial arts, shouldn't I not pay attention to practicing martial arts in the past two years? I can do what he knows. Even if there are really bad guys. You sneaked into our yard, am I a vegetarian?!" As she said that, she pulled out a small dagger from the hem of her cotton-padded jacket, "My knife is also very sharp!"

Hai Changan paused and then said: "What use is such a small knife like yours?"

Haitang jumped off the kang, ran to the foot of the west wall, pulled out the Yanling knife that Haijiao got from General Gu, and held it in a bow: "Isn't this knife too small? I can still use it. Hack people!" Hai Changan choked. Thinking about my niece's posture when practicing knife skills on weekdays, maybe...or...maybe...she really knows how to use a knife? He seems to be as skilled at playing as his nephew Haijiao!

Hai Changan shook his head quickly and refuted his niece again, but his tone was no longer as firm as before: "Even if you know how to use a knife, you are still young and cannot compare with the strength of a young man..."

Haitang put the knife back into its sheath, returned to the kang, moved the stationery, notes, and teacups on the kang table, cleared the table, then used her internal strength to strike the kang table with her palms raised.

The kang table collapsed.

This was newly made, the wood was well used, and the craftsman's skills were not bad, but it collapsed under Haitang's white and tender little hands.

Hai Changan was so shocked that his peach blossom eyes turned into lantern eyes: "When did you develop this strength?"

Haitang smiled a little shyly: "My brother and I have been practicing martial arts with you for the past two years, and it's been like this before we know it... Maybe it's because grandma always buys us a lot of meat to eat, and we have enough eggs and dairy products. , and asked my cousin to prescribe health-replenishing medicine for us, right? Doesn’t it mean that if you eat more meat, eggs, and milk, your body will grow stronger? "

Hai Changan wanted to complain. Eating more meat, eggs, milk, and supplemented with nourishing medicinal foods can indeed nourish a person, but it’s not exaggerated to this extent, right? He has been eating like this for more than ten years, but he has never become an eight-foot strong man. But how old is your little niece? ! She is not yet eleven years old!

Hai Changan took a deep breath and realized that he knew very little about his little niece.

When she could insist on getting up every morning to practice martial arts, he only felt that she was determined.

She studied with two elders, Cao and Lu, and heard that her homework was no worse than her brother's. He only thought that this child was smart and worthy of being brother Dingcheng's biological daughter.

Now, she is practicing martial arts with him. He has clearly never taught her any serious skills, but she has grown up like this. She looks cute and can be quite coquettish. In fact, she not only has good strength, but also has good sword skills. very good……

Speaking of which, who was the main force behind arresting Zhang Pinggui? It turns out that Hai Jiao was telling the truth when he said that he and his sister worked together to capture the man.
