Chapter three hundred and eighty seventh: the crime of treason
Three thousand people fell into the sea, and there was no news at all. From last night to noon, countless people in Datong were waiting for news. When there was a turbulence, people could immediately stand up, but when they learned that it was just ordinary.
When the scout returned to the city, many people couldn't help but let go of their hearts.
In order to plan the night operation, the scouts from all walks of life have received orders and are not allowed to go to Baigou to investigate. They only said that there was a general who had personally taken people to patrol the border, so the scouts who went to Datong could not bring any information at all.
return.
Eunuch Zhao has not been asleep all night and has been absent-minded. When it was approaching noon, he pinched his fingers and felt that there should be news back. After all, according to the agreement, General Wang Fen can lead people to catch up with the enemy at dawn.
The raid will not take long, and at most half an hour can be roughly resolved. At this time, Wang Fen should send someone back to inform him. It will take only three hours for the fast horse to go from Baigou to Datong. Now
It's time to arrive too.
But there was still no news. Although I sent someone to the North Gate to ask seven or eight times, I shook my head from the North Gate.
Has something happened?
Or is there something wrong in the middle?
Eunuch Zhao was really anxious. This was not fun. If something happened, it would kill people. It was his head that was lost.
In the flower hall, Eunuch Zhao was wandering around, and Fan Yong also sent someone to ask. Eunuch Zhao couldn't help but get angry and said at the top of his voice: "It's all you guys who are so fooled by eating lard that they encourage the miscellaneous family to do it after eating it.
Now I am asking the Zajia, who will go to the Zajia?"
The person who came was Fan Yong's confidant, so he had to respond submissively and did not dare to retaliate.
Eunuch Zhao calmed down and knew that it was useless to scold him at this time. He had his own military order. If he could not deny it, he had to shake his head irritably and uneasy. Then he said, "How about sending some scouts to see it, maybe it can be done."
Find out some news?”
Later, I felt that it was inappropriate. At this time, I sent the scouts to make me feel too impatient. And naturally, the fewer people know about this, the better. If these scouts were spread, it would be bad. So I touched my smooth chin
, squinted his eyes and said, "It's still no need to go back and tell your master. Just say that the news will be delivered roughly at this time. Wait a minute."
After sending the person out, Eunuch Zhao was a little lost. Things were a little abnormal. There was no movement now, something was wrong. Time was fine. Will there be something really wrong?
Eunuch Zhao was startled by his thoughts, and then hurriedly said to himself. No, no, how could the elite soldiers of the Three Thousand Border Town not even be able to deal with the caravan? Although they had a lot of guards,
It is far inferior to the elite soldiers in the border town, not to mention that the enemy is in the dark, and rushes to rush over at dawn, even if it is replaced by the thorned man, it will be ruined.
Although he thought so, Eunuch Zhao was still a little worried, so he called someone and ordered: "Prepare sedan chairs, the family members are going to the governor's office."
He really couldn't sit still, but Zuo Qiuming had always been a deep person. Perhaps he could feel at ease when he talked to him.
Besides, Wang Fen is his Zuo Qiuming's person. Even if there is news, he will probably send it to the governor's office first, and it will be better to wait there.
After getting into the sedan chair, he arrived at the Governor's yamen. The yamen's yamen did not dare to stop him when he saw that Eunuch Zhao had come, so he had to greet him with a smile and report in the meantime. Eunuch Zhao went directly into the main hall of the yamen. There were exactly a few officials here.
There was nothing to do in the hall and chatted together. Last night, there was a sudden movement in the army, and there was no doubt that there was a speculation. Especially these officials, after all, the governor would give a note to ask any orders to let them know
, Who knew last night, they only learned this morning that the general suddenly left the city and patroled. This matter was strange. Therefore, everyone started talking casually, saying, "Is there any urgent military situation?
Was the thorn man offended the border? This is not right. If he offended the border, it wouldn't be so hasty. The military order is to patrol the border, not rescue."
"But it is not impossible to go out for a circle as usual in previous years. But don't you know this in advance?"
"This military order is indeed too urgent. Perhaps the Futai Lord may not have any other considerations."
When Eunuch Zhao came in, he heard it, his face immediately pulled down, and he coughed with a dark face. When the officials saw him coming, they couldn't help but feel strange. This was strange. The eunuch who was a magistrate of the garrison had always been with the Lord Futai.
Are you too connected? Why are you here today?
In fact, almost few military supervisors and governors are harmonious. It’s not that they are born with disagreements. But as important bosses in a province, if you have a little more power, I will lose a little profit, both sides have it.
Conflict of interest. In addition, if the governor gets too close to the military supervisor, there will inevitably be suspicion. Who can overcome the impeachment of the imperial envoy?
Therefore, Eunuch Zhao and Zuo Qiuming have never had much contact. Not to mention that everyone should try to minimize contact in official business, let alone the eunuch who was a magistrate came to visit the governor's yamen.
After a brief shock, the officials stood up and saluted Eunuch Zhao. Eunuch Zhao just nodded, walked through the lobby and went straight into the back hall.
Zuo Qiu Mingzheng calmly handled the official duties on the desk. When he heard someone telling me that Eunuch Zhao was coming, he also showed a little displeasure on his face. The person named Zhao was really unable to calm down, but even though he was like this in his heart.
It is said that Zuo Qiuming is not necessarily better. He appears to be calm, but he didn't sleep well last night. When he woke up early, he felt a little confused. He always thought about Baigou involuntarily, but he has always been
He claimed that he had good skills in cultivating one's nature, and was afraid that he would make people suspicious when doing something, so he simply asked someone to send some accumulated documents from previous years, and read them all in a row.
When Eunuch Zhao came, Zuo Qiuming couldn't neglect her, so he quickly asked Eunuch Zhao to sit down, push the book aside, and ask someone to give him tea.
Eunuch Zhao sat down, looked at Zuo Qiuming, then smiled, and said with a smile: "Master Zuo is busy enough in official business, but it's the time when the miscellaneous family came to the wrong place."
Zuo Qiu clearly waved his hand: "Eunuch Zhao is here, and the governor's yamen is full of glory. I just take a look at some of the accumulated cases in previous years. I can't say that I'm busy. My father-in-law can come and talk to me."
He asked Eunuch Zhao to speak, and Eunuch Zhao took it seriously and spoke straight to the point. He took a sip of the tea he handed over and said slowly: "I wonder if there is news in Baigou?"
Zuo Qiuming reluctantly calmed himself and said, "There is no news. Why? Is there already news from Eunuch Zhao?"
Eunuch Zhao smiled bitterly, he came to ask him, but he asked himself. He shook his head and said, "There are no ones in the family. Alas, the soldiers left the city and didn't see news. It really made people worry. If they encounter an enemy situation,
But what's the best thing to do? Besides, this time General Wang led the team himself, so something is not fun."
At first glance, there was nothing taboo about this. Zuo Qiuming knew what the metaphor of Eunuch Zhao was. After a long time of silence, he immediately said: "Don't worry, patrol the border is a common practice. This time, Wang Fen sets out.
I am carrying elite soldiers and strong soldiers, so there will be no mistakes. I am afraid that it may be delayed because of something."
Eunuch Zhao had no choice but to nod and said worriedly: "I hope so."
The two of them were talking nonsense. After sitting for half an hour, there was still no news. At this time, not only Eunuch Zhao, but also Zuo Qiuming couldn't help but write his anxiety on his face. Wang
He didn't know Fen's temperament. Although this man had no talent, he was a cautious person. He would definitely follow his instructions. Everyone had already agreed to send a quick horse to Datong to repay him immediately after the matter was completed. However, this
It's already afternoon, why haven't the news from Malay News yet?
Eunuch Zhao was also anxious and couldn't help but say, "Mr. Zuo, this matter is strange. Is it a good fortune?"
Zuo Qiuming looked gloomy and said, "No, there is no such thing as a small matter like patroling the border, what can I do?" He said this, but his heart was in a mess. After a long time, he called a serviceman.
, said: "Go to the North Gate to take a look, urge the North Gate to guard the North Gate, and ask why there is no news for our patrolmen to send back."
The officer replied and quickly went to the north gate. Eunuch Zhao and Zuo Qiuming could only continue to wait here. Eunuch Zhao felt that it was not a solution to do this, but he had no idea for a while. Seeing that there was no one around, he finally opened it.
The skylight said in a bright voice, "Master Zuo, you can say the right thing. Are you really sure about this? If you don't have a good idea, this is a rebellion."
Zuo Qiuming himself couldn't get the news, so he answered him where he answered it. He just said perfunctorily: "What's the use of Eunuch Zhao saying so much now? It's urgent to wait until the news comes."
Eunuch Zhao said sinisterly: "What are Lord Zuo saying? Of course, the zodiac family is anxious. Are you a zodiac family who cuts their eggs into the palace to commit crimes of rebellion?"
He was also anxious, and he didn't even have any politeness, so he just started talking slander.
Zuo Qiuming originally wanted to say that he was gentle and swept the floor, but then he thought that he was not a scholar or a eunuch, so he simply ignored him and went to take the book and read it absent-mindedly.
Seeing that he ignored him, Eunuch Zhao had to be silent. He wanted to leave, but was afraid that he would not get the news first. He delayed the time, but he would inevitably feel a little embarrassed if he didn't leave. Looking at Zuo Qiuming, he sneered in his heart.
Chapter 3 is here, I am about to take the driver's license exam. I'm sweating. I have been arrested these days to practice driving every day and have to write. I can only sleep for six hours a day. It's really a pity.
