The Bandit’s Strategy

[Chapter 71-Some things can’t be said] Then it will be faster to do it

I saw Master Zhao with my own eyes, and this incident is of course worth boasting. So until dinner, the people in the city still gathered under the big locust tree to discuss, and no one was willing to go back first.

"Master Zhao is really called Zhao Yue?" Some people asked with their jobs.

"Naturally, Lao Zhang, who sells wontons, said it was Mr. Zhao's own words." Another human said, "The adults didn't refute it after hearing it. It can be seen that it is true."

"I said, Zhao Yue in the picture album is not accurate." Another said, "Wang Tianhu is really bold, and he dared to pretend to be Zhao Gongzi." It is no wonder that the first one was besieged by the government and beaten into a pig's head even his father. do not know.

"I don't know when Zhao Gongzi will show up again next time." The big guys feel very looking forward to it. Of course, if they appear for a longer time, it will be better. We all want to see it very much.

At this moment, Zhao Yue was sitting at the stone table in the small courtyard of Shang Mansion, wiping the Jiyue Sword carefully.

Wen Liunian walked in with a tray.

"Not resting yet?" Zhao Yue stood up.

"Just finished the official business." Wen Liunian put the tray on the table, "The wine bought by the owner of Shangbao is said to be very good."

Zhao Yue said, "Come in, the yard is a bit cold."

Wen Liunian nodded and went back to the bedroom with him.

Lu Zhui was drinking with the dark guard, seeing this scene from afar on the roof, couldn't help feeling deeply.

In the dead of night, people have a relatively small drink in the bedroom, the time is right and the place is right, and who is not worthy of chaos.

"What wine is it?" Zhao Yue asked.

Wen Liunian said, "July Xia."

Zhao Yue brightened the lights.

"I don't know wine, but this jar of wine seems to be hard to find." Wen Liunian opened the seal.

"July Xia blooms on the island, and it is extremely rare in the inland." Zhao Yue put the wine glasses side by side on the table, "The taste of brewing wine is not spicy, you can try it."

"Did the master?" Wen Liunian was a little surprised.

Zhao Yue nodded, "I drank a lot of wine when I walked the rivers and lakes earlier."

Wen Liunian said, "Will you be drunk?"

"You probably will." Zhao Yue smiled, "I won't."

Wen Liunian tried to take a sip, then smacked his lips, "It's very sweet."

"When you are not drunk, you will feel that the room is full of flowers." Zhao Yue said, "This is the most wonderful thing about July Xia."

Wen Liunian raised his head and drank it.

Zhao Yue:...

Wen Liunian put down his wine glass and said, "It's not bad to be able to smell the fragrance of flowers."

Zhao Yue smiled and shook his head, and poured another glass for him.

The wine jar was not too big, and it was half empty before long. Wen Liunian was lying on the table, obviously a bit drunk.

Zhao Yue picked him up, originally wanted to send him back to the room, but stopped at the door.

As Lu Zhui said, if he doesn't take the initiative in some things, I'm afraid it will wait a lifetime.

He hesitantly lowered his head and glanced at the person in his arms, and saw that his cheeks were flushed, and his brows were lightly wrinkled together, like he had never seen before.

Getting drunk... should be uncomfortable, it doesn't seem good to leave him alone like this.

After thinking about this, Zhao Yue turned around holding the person, put him on his bed, and called for hot water again.

Although Wen Liunian didn’t understand wine, the wine was very good, and he was not disturbed when he was drunk. His face was a little blushing on weekdays, and he would mutter a word or two from time to time, but he couldn’t understand what he was saying. what.

Zhao Yue first coaxed his hot tea to rinse his mouth, then gently took off his shoes and socks and his robe, wiped his face with a hot towel, and then pulled the quilt to cover it, and he took the rest of the hot water. After washing his face alive, he leaned on the bed and rubbed his temples, thinking that he would be more comfortable tomorrow morning.

Wen Liunian opened his eyes in a daze.

"Go to sleep." Zhao Yue whispered, "I won't have a headache tomorrow."

Wen Liunian said dumbly, "Cold."

Zhao Yue took a meal and then hugged him into his arms.

Wen Liunian closed his eyes again and soon fell asleep again.

Zhao Yue's heart was soft, and he lowered his head and kissed his hair, for fear of awakening people.

In the early morning of the next day, with the sun falling on the window grilles, Wen Liunian was still drowsy, wrapped in a quilt.

Knowing that he had not drunk much on weekdays, Zhao Yue didn't wake up either. He got out of bed after he was horned. After washing up, he went out, only to see Lu Zhui drinking tea in the courtyard.

"Morning." Zhao Yue turned and closed the door.

"Morning." Lu Zhui looked at him deeply.

Zhao Yue was a little uncomfortable, sitting opposite him and poured himself a cup of tea.

Lu Zhui said, "Would you like to prepare a bowl of egg noodles?" According to the custom of the vast city, on the first day when the new wife comes home, the couple will eat a bowl of double yellow egg noodles together, which means that they are bound forever.

Zhao Yue's face was slightly stiff, and said, "It was just a drink of too much wine last night."

Lu Zhui waved his hand and said, "The master does not need to explain this. The cause is not important, and the process is not important." As long as the ultimate goal is achieved, it is good. Besides, the chaos after drinking sounds a bit unruly of people in the world. It is free and easy.

Zhao Yue said again, "No other things happened."

Lu Zhui was surprised at once, "Just drank alcohol?"

Zhao Yue said, "Yes."

Lu Chai said, "Then it's gone?"

Zhao Yue said, "Yes."

Lu Zhui:...

Still not a man...

Zhao Yueqiang resisted the urge to beat him.

Lu Chai said painfully, "You can't let an adult take the initiative in this kind of thing." Can you still look like a bandit.

Zhao Yue said, "I don't want to take advantage of others."

"What's this to take advantage of people's danger!" Lu Zhui wanted to poke his head off and see what was inside it!

Zhao Yue was silent.

Lu Chai said bitterly, "If you are a little bit more uplifting, the adults won't be able to run into the room with the wine on their own."

Zhao Yue frowned, "What do you mean?"

"I have to ask?" Lu Zhui said, "From the time I went down the Cangmang Mountain to now, not to mention it is an adult, even I am troubled." The speed is so slow that it is really embarrassing.

Zhao Yue:...

Nerds hate themselves slow?

"Morning." Wen Liunian stretched out, "Hey, the second master is also here."

"Morning, my lord." Lu Zhui stood up, "It just so happens that the master has something to say."

Zhao Yue kicked him calmly.

Lu Zhui said, "I'll go and see the Lord Shangbao first."

Wen Liunian nodded, "Second Master, go slowly."

After Lu chased away, the courtyard became quiet again, and Zhao Yue stood by the stone table and stared at him.

Wen Liunian asked, "I didn't wash my face?"

"Huh?" Zhao Yue returned to his senses, "No."

"Why does the master keep staring at me?" Wen Liunian said innocently.

Zhao Yuexin said, "It looks good."

Wen Liunian:...

Zhao Yue said, "I—"

Wen Liunian looked at him.

Zhao Yue took a deep breath, feeling that he still... couldn't tell.

Wen Liunian said, "If the master doesn't say anything, then I have to go back to the house...well."

Zhao Yue stepped forward, cupped his cheeks in both hands, and lowered his head to kiss.

Since you can't tell, it will be faster to do it.

The lips are soft, as good as the taste in the dream.

Zhao Yue wrapped his waist with one hand, and the kiss became more lingering.

Wen Liuyouqing closed his eyes, his eyelashes trembling slightly under the sky light.

The courtyard was quiet, and even the sound of falling leaves was clearly identifiable. After a long time, Zhao Yue reluctantly let go of the person in his arms and looked down at him.

Wen Liunian opened his eyes, and the color of his lips was a bit more watery than before.

As if bewitched, Zhao Yue licked closer.

Wen Liunian laughed out loud.

Zhao Yue rubbed his thumb lightly across his cheek, then hugged the person tightly into his arms, not wanting to let go for a moment.

Wen Liunian said, "I'm going back to the government office."

Zhao Yue reluctantly let go.

Wen Liunian said, "Do you want to go together?"

Zhao Yue nodded, "Naturally."

The two went out hand in hand. Outside the small courtyard, the dark guard was chatting with Lu Zhui enthusiastically to say "We didn't take a peek at all." There was Shang Yunze Mu Qingshan standing beside him, and he got up early to buy dumplings with sour soup for Huatang. See you when you come back. A bunch of people were looking in the crack of the door, Zhao Wu who was just about to step forward to ask what was going on.

Zhao Yue:...

Wen Liunian took his hand and calmly passed everyone.

Lu Zhui sighed in his heart, looking at this posture, what the Boundless City should prepare is not the dowry, but the dowry...

In the study, the Tengyunpu disciple who was in charge of stalking had just rushed back and was waiting for Wen Liunian.

"What's the matter?" Seeing his expression a little flustered, the others didn't dare to be careless.

"Wang Dagui is dead," the disciple replied.

As soon as this statement came out, everyone at the scene was taken aback. They ate hot and sour noodles at the Shantang yesterday, and lost their lives today?

"Speak clearly, what the **** is going on." Shang Yunze frowned slightly.

"The fort master's forgiveness is because the subordinate's supervision is unfavorable." The disciple said, "After Wang Dagui came back from the shantang yesterday, he has been behind closed doors. The subordinates did not expect that he would have an accident, so they have been guarding outside the house. I saw this morning. The sky was bright, but he hadn't seen him go out to chop wood, so he opened the tiles and took a look, only to find that he was lying face up on the ground, already dead."

"Bring a few people over and surround the house first." Wen Liunian said, "Come along with you, Zuo Hufa is pregnant. Don't disturb her by these things."

"Yes." The dark guard nodded, turned and left the study.

"Can someone enter or leave Wang Dagui's residence last night?" Wen Liunian asked.

"No." The disciple shook his head, "The three of our brothers have been guarding all the time, and have not slackened for a moment. From the time Wang Dagui went home to his death, unless there was a secret passage in the room, he had not seen any outsiders."

"What about the other abnormalities?" Wen Liunian asked again.

"Nor." The disciple said, "Wang Dagui seems to be very lonely. When he came home, he ran into a neighbor at the door, and he didn't even say hello."

"Whether it is suicide or murder, he has a connection with the Tiger Head Gang. I am afraid that he can sit down." Wen Liunian said, "Let's go, let's go to Wang Dagui's house."

Zhao Yue said, "I will go too."

Wen Liunian urged, "Don't disturb the rest of the people." After all, investigating the case is nothing like a trifling matter. It is okay to eat hot and sour noodles together in the shantang. This time it involves human lives, so the smaller the movement, the better.

"I know." Zhao Yue picked up the Jiyue knife, "Go to Wang Dagui's residence and wait for you first."

Wen Liunian nodded, and after changing his clothes, he went to Wang Dagui's residence with the yavier.

Although it's not clear what happened, seeing a large group of officers and soldiers suddenly surrounding the house, and even some work, the people could still guess some of the conditions inside. The Boundless City was originally small, and the news spread faster. When Wen Liunian arrived, there were already many people outside.

"My lord." Seeing him coming, the people greeted one after another.

There are two families nearby, Wang Dagui's neighbors, Wen Liunian said, "What was the abnormal situation last night?"

"My lord, there is nothing." A man said, "When I went home yesterday, I ran into him at the door. As usual, I didn't even say hello. I walked straight into the door."

It was almost the same as what the disciple of Tengyunpu said, Wen Liunian opened the courtyard gate and led people in.

Zhao Yue had arrived one step ahead of him and looked around in the house.

Wang Dagui was still lying on the ground and had not been moved, standing next to him, Wu Zuo and the servants, checking the surroundings.

Not far from the corpse was the dining table, with a bowl of gruel and half a bowl of bacon on top, and broken flagon fragments on the ground. The bed in the next bedroom was a bit messy. It was obviously not cleaned up when I got up in the morning. The door of the cabinet was opened wide, and the inside was turned over in a mess.

Wen Liunian stepped into the kitchen again.

Zhao Yue said, "Nothing has been poisoned."

There was also a tank full of new rice in the rice tank, several bundles of greens were thrown around the corner, dried salted fish and cured chicken hung from the beams, and two or three live fish were kept in the bucket.

Wen Liunian touched his chin and said, "It's pretty good at living."

Zhao Yue said, "What have you found?"

"It's not like suicide." Wen Liunian said, "When I saw him in the shantang yesterday, I didn't see anything unusual, and there wasn't even a trace of emotional flaws. It's not like people who want to extinct themselves should have it. Look like."

Zhao Yue nodded and went out of the kitchen with him.

"Furthermore, depending on the kitchen conditions, he should want to live a good life, otherwise he would not buy so much food." Wen Liunian said, "Ten thousand steps back, even if he really intends to commit suicide, he should buy so many ingredients. I want to go on the road when I'm full. There is absolutely no reason to just go like this."

Zhao Yue said, "What if you buy it, but don't want to eat it?"

Wen Liunian shook his head, "Most of the porridge and bacon on the table have been eaten. It doesn't look like I have no appetite."

"My lord." As the two spoke, the dark guard came over again, "Wang Dagui should have been hit by Gu."

"Gu poison again?" Zhao Yue frowned.

Wen Liunian said, "How can you see it?"

The secret guard said, "Li Yaozuo just wanted to bring the body back to the government office, but felt something wrong when moving it. Unlike the weight of an adult man, he untied his clothes and found that his body was already scorched, and he appeared in Wuniu Village the other day. 'S body is exactly the same."

Zhao Yue shook his head, "Probably seeing that he has no use value, and is in danger of being discovered by the government, so it is better to act first."

"I was negligent." Wen Liunian sighed, he should have been brought back to the mansion for questioning earlier.

"You don't have to blame yourself." Zhao Yue said, "No one entered or left this house yesterday, which means that Gu poison has already been planted into Wang Dagui's body, and it will happen sooner or later."

"Go and check to see if there are any secret passages in the house." Wen Liunian said, "Be careful."

Zhao Yue nodded, "Leave it to me."

Covering Wang Dagui's body with a white cloth, the yamen carried all the way out of the small courtyard. When the people saw it, they were all sorrowful. Although they didn't have much dealings with them, they would be gone if they didn't deal with it. In any case, it would be a little late. some. Seeing Wen Liunian coming out, the bold people approached and asked, "My lord, what is going on?"

"Should die suddenly due to illness." Wen Liunian said, "The details will be known after the autopsy."

The people sighed and felt sorry for him because he had no family and no words, so he spontaneously gathered some silver coins to prepare for the funeral.

Inside the government office, Huatang was eating sour hawthorn. When Zhao Wu came back, he stood up and asked, "Did something happen?"

"A person died in the city." Zhao Wu sat across from him, "My lord suspects it is related to the Tiger Head Gang."

"No one told me why." Huatang put down what was in her hand, "I'll go take a look."

"There are so many people here, it's not bad for you." Zhao Wu pulled them back into the chair, "My lord said, you are not allowed to interfere in this matter."

Huatang is funny, "Then I will do nothing and just sit here and bask in the sun?"

Zhao Wudao said, "Anyway, I'm not allowed to go. If you really are a girl in my stomach, I will look at the corpse with you every day before I come out, and whether I will get married in the future."

Flower tang:...

You really think long-term.

"Where there is a need for you, I will naturally look for you." Zhao Wudao, "Now that no one is looking for you, it means that the others can handle it, so you don't have to worry about it."

Huatang sighed while supporting her cheeks, and continued to eat hawthorn one by one.

Knowing that she feels bored, Zhao Wu is naturally anxious, just thinking that he can handle this matter quickly, and he can take her back to the Shadow Palace to have a baby sooner. It's just that the tiger head gang has been unable to shrink, and can't get in with a strong attack. It is inevitable to think of it.

"Zhao Shaoxia." Wen Liunian was finishing the files in the study, and when he saw him come in, he said, "Is something wrong with me?"

Zhao Wudao, "Where is the master?"

Wen Liunian said, "Still performing an autopsy with the author."

Zhao Wudao, "I want to go to Tiger Head Gang again tonight."

"Go again?" Wen Liunian said, "What are Zhao Shaoxia's plans?"

Zhao Wudao, "Go and see the situation, there may be new discoveries."

"That is, there is no plan yet." Wen Liunian said, "It's not a solution to try your luck again and again. If you don't get together tonight, we will discuss countermeasures together."

"Alright." Zhao Wu nodded, "Do you have any thoughts, my lord?"

"There is a way, which is proposed by the master." Wen Liunian said, "After the adults gather in the evening, we will discuss whether it is feasible."

People died violently in the city. Although it has nothing to do with my family, it is not a good thing anyway. In the twilight, Wang Dagui's house was hung with banyan and white flowers in front of it, which looked even more depressed.

Lu Zhui sighed, "If the people know the real cause of Wang Dagui's death, I'm afraid the atmosphere will get worse."

Shang Yunze said, "So the great talents are anxious to find everyone to discuss countermeasures."

"Let's go, go back." Lu Zhui put away the folding fan, "I hope I can find a way this time to catch the group of monsters in one go, so that I can restore the peace of Cangmang Mountain."

In the study, Wen Liunian was sitting at the desk reading the dossiers, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

Zhao Yue leaned against him, frowning slightly. I have been busy all day and haven't seen how he eats. I even drank two sips of soup and came to the study for dinner. Although my heart was overwhelmed, skipping meals was not the answer.

Wen Liunian sighed, "Let's have a good day, but why on earth do you want to collude with the Tiger Head Gang."

"Everyone in this world wants different things." Zhao Yue said, "and once you make a choice, you have to pay the corresponding price, which is not surprising."

Wen Liunian closed the file and rubbed his temples with his hands.

"Would you like to eat something?" Zhao Yue asked, "Otherwise I will be hungry in the middle of the night."

Wen Liunian said, "I have no appetite."

Zhao Yue took out a packet of peanut candy from his arms, opened it and fed him one.

Wen Liunian chewed twice, and asked with a puffed cheek, "Is it for Heifeng again?"

Zhao Yue smiled, "For you."

Wen Liunian said, "I want to buy sesame seeds next time."

Zhao Yue stretched out his hand to remove some sugar residue from his face, "Okay."

"My lord...cough!" Lu Zhui just pushed the door in, and saw that the two were looking at each other affectionately under the light, so he took the initiative to stop.

The people behind were too late to rush into him one after another, clutching their noses and yelling.

Lu Chai was extremely calm, "We are here to discuss matters."

Master Zhao is obviously in a bad mood.

The head of Lu Er was very sad.

Next time there is such a thing, I must follow everyone's back.
