Late at night, at the official residence in the backyard of Linyu County, Wu Like had just undressed and got on the bed after staying up all night. He finally fell asleep in a daze. Suddenly, someone hurriedly knocked on the outer door of the bedroom. The concubine next to him woke up, and there was a commotion.
The mood was noisy and noisy. Wu Li was not awakened by the knocking on the door, but was woken up by his concubine.
"What's going on, what's going on, what time is it!" Wu Like sat up and shouted angrily to the door.
"Master, master, something big happened in the city." The housekeeper's urgent voice came from outside the door.
Wu Like was so excited that he immediately got down and rushed to the door without any more nonsense. He opened the door and walked out, then closed the door again. Standing outside the door was none other than the second housekeeper Chen Fulu, who looked serious.
He was still wearing the same shoes he had worn when going out, his forehead was dripping with sweat, and he was still out of breath when he spoke just now.
"What's wrong? What happened in the city?" Wu Like couldn't wait to ask. Considering the seriousness of the matter, he even lowered his voice unconsciously because of his nervousness when asking.
"Master, I just came back from outside... There are so many soldiers outside. They are all soldiers of Mr. Wu Zhenshou. It can be seen that something is going to happen in the city. I even went to inquire about it..." Chen Fulu was a little incoherent.
said.
Upon hearing this, Wu Like immediately frowned, not because "the city is full of Wu's soldiers", but because the second housekeeper still wanted to go out so late at night.
He interrupted the other party's words in a cold voice, with a look of reproach on his face, and scolded him: "You ran out so late at night and asked if you went gambling again. How many times is this!"
Chen Fulu was immediately embarrassed. He hesitated for a while, then changed the subject and said: "Master, Wu Zhenshou is dispatching troops so late. This is not a... trivial matter... I have already inquired about it.
I heard... I heard that Wu Zhenshou was planning to surround the commander-in-chief's camp..."
Wu Like said angrily: "Stop talking nonsense to me. There are family rules. You... wait, what did you just say!"
Chen Fulu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then said in a lively and emphatic tone: "Master, I heard that Wu Zhenshou mobilized troops tonight to attack Commander Yuan."
Wu Like only felt a chill running down his spine at this moment, and cold sweat suddenly hit his body like a heavy rain. He was stunned for a long time, and then he subconsciously asked solemnly: "Is this true? Where did the news come from?
, how could you find out about this?"
Chen Fulu said quickly: "On the way back home, I happened to meet a group of soldiers, and the leader was Mr. Wei, a fellow countryman of Xiao. He walked up to him and smoked a cigarette to chat with them. Mr. Wei made this matter mysterious.
After talking about it. Judging from his appearance, it is obvious that this matter is not false, and someone will really die tonight."
Wu Like naturally knew that Chen Fulu had a fellow villager named Wei. He had a good relationship with him on weekdays and often visited some gambling houses. Maybe it was Chen Fulu who was gambling with the fellow villager named Wei tonight.
Order.
He screamed in his heart that something was wrong. He never expected that Wu Chenglu could be so cruel and openly attack Yuan Su. If you know Yuan Su's idea of fighting Wu Chenglu, he would have to do it first.
A series of preparations were made, including winning people's hearts and enforcing the law impartially, in order to be famous. But now, Wu Chenglu was so broken that he simply ignored everything else.
"Master, look, what should we do now?"
Wu Like glared at Chen Fulu. He also wanted to know what to do, but this matter was really difficult to deal with. He was so angry that he asked such a question, which really added fuel to the fire. However, he did not lose his temper.
After thinking for a while, he felt that this matter could have anything to do with him. He had warned Yuan Su earlier, telling him to stop and leave as soon as possible, but Yuan Su still went his own way, and now he was forcing Wu Chenglu to jump over the wall. Who could blame him?
?
Anyway, he had no intention of getting involved in this matter from beginning to end. He neither helped Yuan Su nor made irresponsible remarks in front of Wu Chenglu. No matter how the matter developed, it was just a power dispute from above.
"What else can we do? This is a matter between the guardian envoy and the military envoy. I am just the magistrate of a county, so what can I do? Go back quickly and pretend that you have never talked about this matter with me tonight.
!" After thinking about it, Wu Like gave up impatiently, said in a warning tone, and then turned around and walked back into the house.
But just now he stretched out his hand to open the door, Wu Like couldn't help but feel upset in his heart. Although this matter had nothing to do with him, and at the same time he was unwilling to have anything to do with it, but with Wu Chenglu's virtue,
There is always no sense of propriety in doing things, either hesitantly or hesitantly, or he overdoes it.
He was afraid that Wu Chenglu would get mad or make a mistake and kill Yuan Su all at once. This was not impossible. After all, Yuan Su was a hot-blooded man and the nephew of the president. If he surrounded the camp of the disaster relief commander-in-chief,
Neither side would give in, and they were accidentally shot during the exchange of fire. No one could predict such an accident.
The dignified military guard was beaten to death by the local guard during the disaster relief operation. This was a big enough case.
As the county magistrate of Linyu County, good things may not always be his turn, but bad things will definitely be involved. It was with this concern in his mind that he had to reconsider.
"etc."
"Master, do you have anything else to tell me?" Chen Fulu stopped quickly, turned around and asked in confusion.
"You, you'd better go out again, go to the commander-in-chief's camp to find Commander Yuan and tell him about this matter." After a fierce ideological struggle, Wu Like finally summoned up the confidence to say extremely resolutely.
.Although he was still very unhappy at this moment, blaming Yuan Su for not listening to his advice, and blaming Yuan Su for involving himself in this matter. But no matter what, he wanted to get out of the situation intact.
It is obviously impossible to stay out of the situation.
"Sir, what are you talking about?" Chen Fulu obviously didn't react for a moment. Wu Like just said that it had nothing to do with him, and he himself felt that there was no need for the master to get involved in this matter. Why did he turn around?
Has kung fu changed again?
"What else can it be? Go notify Commander Yuan and tell him that the patrol battalion in the city is being mobilized tonight. As for what the patrol battalion is going to do, there is no need to say more. Commander Yuan will naturally understand what happened." Wu Like
He explained in an accentuated tone.
"Ah, but... okay, little one, go right away, go right away." Chen Fulu originally wanted to ask the master what was going on, and even planned to persuade him a few words, but when he saw the master's resolute expression and tone, he suddenly hesitated.
I didn't dare to complain too much, for fear of offending the master's temper again.
"Remember, be careful when you go out, don't let anyone see you. Go through the back door, and when you get to the camp, go in through the back door, remember?" Wu Like warned in a solemn tone.
"Yes, yes, the little one remembers it."
Chen Fulu left the county official residence through the back door and walked along the path towards the train station. The train station is on the outskirts of Beicheng. It is a seven or eight mile walk from the city even if you take a shortcut. What's more, you have to keep a low profile and be careful not to let others in.
When others see it, they are afraid that this road is not easy to walk.
Fortunately, in the dead of night, Chen Fulu walked hurriedly and walked back and forth for nearly an hour before arriving at the train station. At this time, the area near the train station was quite popular, and various armies had arranged patrols.
, in the distant foreign garrison area, you can still faintly hear the chatter of some soldiers on duty.
After a lot of beating around the bush, he finally reached the back door of the camp compound. This camp was originally the place where the county government arranged for Yuan Su to work. Many of the servants, servants, helpers and footmen inside were all transferred there by the county government. When he knocked on the door
When I knocked on the wooden door of the back door, after a while, someone finally came to answer the door. After asking, it turned out to be the second housekeeper of the county government, and he opened the door immediately.
"Hey, Mr. Chen, why are you here so late? What's the matter?" A helper opened the door and asked in a thick voice while rubbing his sleepy eyes.
"Of course there is something urgent. Go and inform Commander Yuan immediately. My master has asked me to see him for something important. Go quickly."
"It's...it's so late. Commander Yuan is probably already going to bed. Why are you so anxious?"
"Don't ask any more questions. Just go and hurry up. Can you afford to delay something important?" Chen Fulu scolded him impatiently.
"Yes, yes, Mr. Chen, please sit down for a moment, I will go and report it right away."
The helper immediately went to the atrium to find the officer on duty, who then went to notify Yuan Su's adjutant Du Yu. After some twists and turns, Du Yu woke up Yuan Su who had just fallen asleep. Yuan Su naturally knew that he was coming to find him in the middle of the night, and
Still sneaking in through the back door, something big must have happened. He didn't even change his clothes, just wearing a pajamas and hurried to the backyard to meet Chen Fulu.
Chen Fulu looked slightly panicked and quickly explained the matter briefly as Wu Like told him.
After listening to Chen Fulu's words, Du Yu was the first to change his color and asked in shock: "Are you serious about this? Are you lying to us?"
Chen Fulu sighed for a while, and said quickly: "Hey, sir, if something like this hadn't happened in the middle of the night, how would I have dared to come and disturb you? It's true that this happened. I'm afraid that Lord Wu will be guarding you at this time.
The troops have already moved this way. I don’t know what happened to Mr. Wu Zhenshou. Anyway, my master asked Mr. Yuan to be more careful."
