Chapter 205 Passing the Word (Update 1)
Yu Shian said: "Let them be placed in another courtyard first. We also need to wait for the official's decree. If we send them home, someone will prove their innocence. If ..."
Wu Chen snorted coldly. Interrupting Yu Shian, he said: "If they need to silence themselves, there is no need to worry about how they will live in the future."
Song Gu smiled bitterly: "Even we don't know what will happen in the end."
Xu Da He looked at Wu Chen, pursed his lips, and said nothing.
The guards moved all these people to another courtyard. Fortunately, the other courtyard was not small and could accommodate a small crowd. It was already dusk after the arrangements were made.
......
Wu Chen stood by the river, looking at the water in front of him in a daze, with Da Tou accompanying him.
Yu Shian, Song Gu, sophomores in high school, and Xu Dawei all worked non-stop. They led their teams to look for traps. Wang Chengxian gave a general idea and revealed the person who set the trap. Gu You could not take him away. All the people in the other courtyard and some slaves stayed behind, including those who participated in setting up the trap. The four of them took a few people with knowledge to solve the mechanism in the other courtyard that controlled Yamashita and the trap at Yamashita.
It is rare that only Wu Chen and Datou are left.
Wu Chen began to feel ready to leave.
He asked Datou: "Can you farm?"
Datou shook his head.
“Can you hunt?”
Big Head shook his head again.
"Do you know herbal medicine?"
Big Tou shook his head like a rattle and said, "I only know how to beg and eat."
Wu Chen coughed several times, and Big Tou asked hurriedly: "But The injury is not healed yet?”
Wu Chen waved his hand and said, “It’s all healed. It’s okay.” After that, Wu Chen sighed again.
Bullshit asked: "Are you worried about that thing in the water? I thought of an idea. I once heard an old beggar say that he caught fish when he was young and used a fishing net to catch fish. Although I don't know about fishing nets, What is it made of? But if you can catch fish, you can also catch other things. ”
Wu Chen pursed his lips and said, just as he was thinking about how to explain to Datou that the thing in the water could not be caught by a fishing net, a loud sound suddenly came from behind him.
"Why don't you two go get some sleep while you have this time?"
Wu Chen looked back and saw Xu walking over with a big smile.
The big head suddenly remembered something and asked: "Is it time to have dinner? Who is cooking in the kitchen? What's for dinner? I'll go take a look." After that, the big head left in a hurry.
Wu Chen wanted to remind Da Tou not to get lost, so he saw the soldier who was standing far away walking towards Da Tou, so he didn't shout out. The soldier would definitely follow Da Tou.
"Are you done with your work?" Wu Chen asked Xu Da.
Xu Da said: "No, I asked the sophomore to help me. I have a few words to say to you."
Wu Chen nodded and asked: "Brother is going back to Kyoto this time. "It's very hard, isn't it?"
Xu laughed and said, "It's not a big deal. It's just my first time meeting the official family. I'm very nervous."
"Oh?" Taking you into the palace?”
"When I arrived in Kyoto, I didn't say a few words when I saw Si Zun. Si Zun sent someone to seal the palace of Prince Cheng, and then hurriedly took me into the palace to meet with the official... I don't know how to say it, that is, Si Zun seems to be I don’t want the officials to reuse you, but they value you very much.”
Wu Chen frowned. He thought he would hear some officials and Si Zun’s opinions on the case, but he didn’t expect Xu Dayi to come up. This is what the two leaders think of him.
Wu Chen knew that when Chen Zhong disciplined his subordinates, he valued obeying orders the most. Xu Da Neng, including Gu You, all worked within this rule. Today, when Xu Da Neng said such words, Wu Chen felt a little bit Moved, but also a little worried.
Xu Da turned his head and looked at Wu Chen, and said with a smile:
"You don't need to worry. In the palace, the official family ordered Si Zun to leave first and talk to me about you alone, official I was asked why there was a rift between you and Deputy Envoy Yu. I didn’t know what to do at the time, so I could only tell the truth, saying that you just wanted to cause some trouble for the Secretary. After saying that, I regretted it and felt that I had betrayed you. ”
"Brother, why would you think so? Who dares to lie when asked by officials?"
"I thought about it at the time. If the officials punish me, I will bear it for you! Who knows that the officials are not angry? , and also said some words of praise for you Xu said, and finally asked me to send a message to you, saying that you just go ahead and investigate the case, and your majesty will guarantee you a lifetime of wealth."
Wu Chen didn't expect this. He blinked in surprise. looked at Xu Da.
Xu laughed and said:
“I didn’t expect that the official family would trust you so much. I kowtowed to you several times and said that you have no joke. Since the official family said this I just want to give you a gold medal to avoid death. I think the officials have thought about what you are afraid of.”
"I, what am I afraid of?"
"You are afraid that in this case involving raising evil spirits and seeking the throne, the more people who know about it, the easier it is to be killed and silenced, so in the beginning you always It means that you went up the mountain alone because you were afraid of involving me and the second year of high school students. Later, when Song Ti was punished, he always reminded you that there would be more If you are here alone, you have a better chance of saving your life... I can see it when you come back this time. There is no gap between you and Deputy Ambassador Yu. It's good! They didn't leave this time. I can see it. What they want is to protect your life."
"Brother, you have really made a lot of progress." Wu Chen marveled.
Xu Da smiled sheepishly and said:
"My sophomore year in high school and I will talk about one or two things when we have nothing to do. I just learned that you are in the cave of Laojie Mountain. I found something in the cave. The second grade student said that I should take the first step. If I want to leave after leaving the cave, you will definitely not let me! Knowing that Prince Cheng has evil spirits is different from knowing that he practices evil spirits. You will worry about me when I arrive in Kyoto. Then I can’t get out again.”
Wu Chen nodded honestly.
Xu Da added:
"The official ordered Sizun to send 500 new troops to Yang'an County. I originally wanted you to take Sou Shan with you, but I met him halfway. They told me that you went to Longgu Mountain, where they were I was on standby to wait for the Secretary's dispatch, so I came here alone. I didn't know whether they would be recalled to Kyoto or come to Longgu Mountain. As for the situation here, I didn't need to say anything to the sophomore, Gu Youzi would report back to the Secretary. I felt Sir, I won't care if there is something in the river What, he only cares about what is in the other courtyard. If the things in the other courtyard are important, five hundred new troops should arrive in the next two days."
Wu Chen snorted and said:
< br>"I also know that in this other courtyard, there should be Something, everything that happened last night was so sudden that they didn't have the chance to prepare everything, but no matter what there is, it won't be put out in the open for us to see. If we don't call in some people to help, we will slowly waste it. ”
Wu Chen was saying this, but he was thinking about the history he knew. Not many kings in the past kept their promises. When they were in need, they were naturally good in every possible way. It was easy to get promoted to a higher position. When they were not in need, they would change their attitude quickly. It's true that any crime can cost you your life. Not to mention that you have never met, but what if you have the merit of following a dragon?
But the official family asked Chen Zhong to leave and talk to Xu Da alone about this matter, which attracted Wu Chen's attention.
"Brother, why do you think the official family asked Si Zun to leave and tell you this alone?" (End of Chapter)
