Detective Di Renjie's legend of Wu Dynasty

Chapter 197 Doubt
At the corner of the street, a pair of eyes quietly looked at the backs of Zeng Tai and Ruyan. This person was dressed in white with a white silk scarf covering his face. He was the girl in white who led the men in black to raid Helanyi.

She let out a long breath, put the bamboo hat in her hand on her head, and then winked at the four men in purple clothes behind her. The five of them walked quickly into a teahouse opposite the Yongchang Pavilion, and picked a teahouse near the door. sit down.

The girl in white said softly, "Keep your eyes wide open."

A group of people in purple nodded and stared at the post opposite.

Yongchang belongs to Jingji County, Tang system, and the level of Jing County is much higher than that of ordinary counties.

Therefore, as the posthouse of Yongchang in Jingxian County, it is of course much larger than ordinary county posts.

It is a three-entry courtyard, consisting of three two-story buildings in the front, middle and back.

Ruyan's room is arranged on the second floor of the back building - the first room in Tianzi.

The servants carried the wooden box into the room, put it on the ground with a "bang", bowed to Ruyan and retreated.

Ruyan smiled and said to Zeng Tai: "Uncle Zeng, you just said that this box is my little girl's luggage?"

Zeng Tai felt strange, and asked doubtfully, "Isn't it?"

Ruyan shook her head, looked around, walked to the door and bolted the door, then walked quickly to the wooden box, and stretched out her hand to lift the lid.

Inside lay a man covered in blood.

This person was covered in wounds, unconscious, and wearing the uniform of a postman. It was the postman who broke out of the Helan station!

Zeng Tai cried out in surprise: "This...Miss Ruyan, who is this person?"

Ruyan "hush" and said in a low voice, "Uncle, please sit down."

Zeng Tai was full of doubts, and slowly sat down at the table.

Ruyan said softly: "This man is a courier. I rescued him on the way. At that time, he was lying in the grass and was dying. From him, I found a six-hundred-mile express delivery to the capital. Tang Bao, my daughter feels that this matter is very unusual."

Zeng Tai was taken aback: "Oh? Where is Tangbao now?"

Ruyan stood up, opened the package, took out a blood-stained briefcase and handed it to Zeng Tai.

Zeng Tai hurriedly took it, took out the pond newspaper inside, opened it and read it hastily, and immediately took two steps back in shock, and said softly: "No, no, how is this possible..."

Ruyan said: "Uncle Zeng, my little girl understands that this matter is related to the military affairs, so I dare not rest on the way, day and night.

I wanted to rush to Shendu in one go to meet my uncle, but after a few days of driving, the postman's injuries could not be healed, and his life was already in danger.

Therefore, the little girl transferred to Yongchang to see you, please go to Beijing overnight, and hand over the pond report to my uncle Dige, and ask him to deal with it. "

Zeng Tai wiped the cold sweat off his forehead with his hand: "Yes, yes, we must save the postman's life, so that if the teacher asks me in the future, I will be able to answer."

Ruyan nodded.

Zeng Tai took a deep breath and stood up: "I see this, I will get up immediately and rush to the capital of God overnight!"

After finishing speaking, Zeng Tai walked out quickly.

In the tea house opposite the post house, the girl in white stared intently at the gate of the opposite post house.

Suddenly, there was a little commotion inside the door, Zeng Tai came out in a hurry, behind him was the Guan Cheng leading the staff to see him off, Zeng Tai waved his hands and said: "Okay, you guys go back."

After the Guan Cheng saluted, he entered the Guan Post.

Zeng Tai looked around, and said to the attendants beside him, "Go back to the county government office!"

After finishing speaking, he bent down and got into the official sedan chair.

With a sound of "Get up the sedan chair", the official sedan chair set off and headed towards the county government.

In the opposite tea house, a man in purple said softly: "General Su, let's do it."

The girl in white pondered for a moment, then said, "I'll follow Zeng Tai. You can deal with that postman, and then do it after the first shift."

The two men in black nodded slowly.

In the evening, the main hall of Di Mansion.

A huge geographical map of the march was hung on the wall, with mountains, rivers, borders, city defenses, etc. marked on the map.

A bamboo knot lightly touched the location of Dongxia Stone Valley marked on the map - this is a canyon between two mountains and a ditch, it seems that the terrain is very dangerous.

Wang Mang looked at the map quietly, thinking.

"Jing Yang, you seem to be very interested in side affairs recently?"

Di Renjie, who was sitting behind the desk, looked at Wang Mang and said.

Wang Mang turned around and said with a smile: "My lord, everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of a country. For such a big event, everyone will be very concerned about it!"

"Fate of the nation, everyone is responsible!"

Di Renjie murmured.

Suddenly, Di Renjie raised his head: "Jing Yang, this sentence is well said, it is really a quatrain through the ages!"

Only then did Wang Mang remember that this sentence did not seem to exist at this time. The earliest source of this sentence was written by Gu Yanwu when the Qing soldiers entered the customs in later generations.

His original sentence is: "Whoever protects the country, the king and his ministers seek to eat meat; whoever protects the world, the humbleness of the common man and the responsibility."

The language pattern written in eight characters comes from Liang Qichao.

Thinking of this, Wang Mang blushed slightly, and had no choice but to say cheekily: "I'm just talking casually, just expressing my feelings!"

Di Renjie nodded slightly, stood up, and walked slowly to the map: "Jing Yang, you have been pestering me, an old man, all afternoon. Now that you see this map, it must be what you want!"

Wang Mang laughed, bowed and said, "Thank you sir, Jing Yang will bring you some more medicinal meals."

Di Renjie waved his hand: "The old man is not a greedy person, you can give Yuan Fang some more. But, Jing Yang, this is a military map, you can't spread it around at will!"

As he spoke, Di Renjie's face became serious.

Wang Mang said seriously: "The boy doesn't know how to advance and retreat, and he will never do such a thing."

Di Renjie nodded: "Jing Yang, it's good that you know, tell me, what did you see?"

As soon as the words were finished, the door opened with a "squeak", and Li Yuanfang came in with tea, and he gently placed the teacup on the table.

Wang Mang turned around and joked, "I can't bear to ask you, a great general, to serve me tea."

Li Yuanfang waved his hand: "Stop being sentimental, whoever brings you tea is for adults."

Di Renjie smiled: "Okay, Jingyang, if you want to drink, you can drink it!"

Wang Mang looked at Li Yuanfang proudly, picked up the teacup, took a sip, and praised: "Not bad, not bad, the tea served by the general is indeed extraordinary!"

"Hahaha!"

Di Renjie couldn't help laughing.

Li Yuanfang shook his head helplessly: "It's been so many years, I really can't do anything about Jing Yang! By the way, what were you talking about just now, my lord?"

Wang Mang smiled and said, "We are looking at the map!"

Di Renjie nodded slightly, pointed at the map and said: "Look, this is Dongxia Stone Valley, with cliffs on both sides and a stone ditch in the middle, such a dangerous terrain is only suitable for setting up an ambush.

I am afraid that it will not be able to use it in large army battles.

Wang Xiaojie, a veteran in the battlefield, will not fail to understand this truth. Why did he choose this place for the battle? "

Li Yuanfang said: "Although the terrain of the canyon is not easy for the army to deploy, it is conducive to besieging the enemy. The purpose of our borrowing from Ji Li Khan is not to make General Zhao Huang go around the enemy's back and take a pincer attack with the general Wang Xiaojie who is in the front." Do you want to defeat the enemy as soon as possible?"

"Borrow?"

Wang Mang asked suspiciously.

Di Renjie nodded.

Li Yuanfang said: "Yes, Jing Yang, another thing I told you last time was borrowing from Ji Li Khan."

Wang Mang nodded slightly: "So that's the case!"

Li Yuanfang said: "If that's the case, it makes sense to choose Dongxia Stone Valley."

Di Renjie heaved a sigh of relief, but did not speak.

Li Yuanfang asked tentatively: "In the afternoon, did your lord mention Tang Bao?"

Di Renjie nodded, and slowly walked up: "I think this pond newspaper is a bit weird."

Li Yuanfang asked puzzledly: "Oh, but why?"

Wang Mang also looked at Di Renjie suspiciously.
