The bear child of the Red Chamber, Jia Cong

Chapter 307

It is said that Wu Fengchun quietly went up to Qin Sangu to talk, Qin Sangu returned the salute and said strangely: "I have never met General Wu, how can the general know me?"

Wu Fengchun said: "The last general has admired the name of the three shopkeepers for a long time."

Qin Sangu said: "As a businessman, how can He De spread his name to Qiongzhou. If I remember correctly, General Wu has been guarding southern Xinjiang for many years, and rarely went to Beijing."

Wu Fengchun said with a smile: "The third shopkeeper has a good memory. At the end of the day, he also has some small businesses in Beijing. He didn't know until two years ago that Qin Sangu in the west of the city is the girl Qinsi who broke the three bandits with a whip."

Qin Sangu raised her eyebrows and said, "So, General Wu intends to discuss business with me?"

Wu Fengchun said: "I hope the third shopkeeper will take care of him for the sake of old acquaintance."

Qin Sangu said: "It's easy to say."

Wu Fengchun said: "The air in Qiongzhou is warm, and there are more miasma."

Qin Sangu frowned: "Although it's cold in Beijing, it's still clear."

Wu Fengchun smiled, exchanged a few words of greeting, and left.Qin Sangu looked at him for a long time, and then went back to the table.

After the banquet dispersed, Jia Cong and others went back to the residence arranged by Huo Sheng to meet.Qin Sangu said with a sullen face: "It's weird."

Jia Xu said, "But Wu Fengchun is King Yan's spy?"

Qin Sangu nodded and said, "That's right. Do you see any flaws in him?"

Jia Xu said, "I heard the two of you talking. The last two words 'warm and cold' are extremely unpleasant, as if they were a message from the counterpart."

Jia Cong hurriedly asked what was the matter, and Sangu Qin recounted what Wu Fengchun had said to him just now, and said, "The last two words of 'nuanhan' that are extremely unpleasant are the secret words of the Qiongzhou spies."

Jia Cong laughed as soon as he heard it: "Impossible. When the Supreme Emperor was still there, Wu Fengchun joined forces with Huo Sheng to conceal the military situation to get the court's salary. If he was a spy, how could the court not know what tricks Huo Sheng was playing? If he was King Yan There is no need to send Fifth Aunt to come here for nothing after the chaos in the world. Either he has the title of a spy, but in fact he is far away from the emperor and has his own agenda; or the real spy has taken refuge in Wu Fengchun."

Jia Xu said, "Maybe the real spy fell into his hands and let him interrogate the words."

Qin Sangu said: "The spy at this end is an ordinary citizen, so it shouldn't belong to him."

Jia Cong suddenly thought of something: "By the way, the imperial court became suspicious of Nanfang because of his two success reports, saying that they looked a little untrue, like lying about military information. If he was a spy, he wouldn't have written that on purpose. , Sincerely attract the imperial court to send people to investigate."

Qin Sangu said: "It's good for him to send the secret letter directly to the capital, why do we need to make detours. Do we have to guard against anyone noticing the letter secretly?"

Jia Xu said, "Unless someone restrains him so that he can't send letters properly."

Qin Sangu said: "He is the General of Guangdong Sea, who has the ability to trap him?"

Jia Cong thought: "Could it be that there is a top expert around him watching?"

Jia Xu said, "Wouldn't it be cheaper to kill him?"

Jia Cong said: "Maybe it's his important relatives who are reluctant to kill him?"

Qin Sangu shook her head and said, "It's not like that. This person doesn't seem to be restrained."

Several people discussed for half a day without any result, so they had to go to sleep separately.

In the middle of the night, Jia Xu imitated the hooting of an owl outside the door, and came out immediately.Jia Xu ordered: "Be alert and take care of it carefully. I'll go to Wu Fengchun's place to find out." The starting point should be "yes".

Jia Xusui went to Wu Fengchun's residence at night to check, but found that he hadn't slept, and was extremely restless walking up and down the room, sighing left and right, and muttered: "Fu Er, you are so ruthless." My heart is so cruel..." Jia Xu's heart skipped a beat, and he searched around, but found nothing wrong.Nai Chengxin came up with an idea and alarmed a group of patrolling soldiers, but no rare masters showed up.

The next day he told everyone about this matter, saying: "It can be seen that Wu Fengchun was trapped by a man named Fu Lao."

Jia Cong scratched his head: "I always feel so weird. I thought about many bloody scripts, but I didn't feel like it. Because he contacted the third aunt, is Fu Laoer going to clean him up? So I hate him so much?"

Therefore, the matter was urgent, so he quietly went to Huo Sheng to inquire about Fu's second child.Huo Sheng said: "Fu is a common surname in Qiongzhou, and there are many second children, how can I find out!"

Jia Cong said: "Is there such a person around General Wu? Don't say you didn't plant spies by his side."

Huo Sheng immediately said: "The surname is Fu Qixing, there are quite a few around him, even in my camp."

"Who can threaten Wu Fengchun?"

"No." Huo Sheng said, "Wu Fengchun is a tiger, and everyone else is a small beast. Why are you investigating him?"

Jia Cong rested his cheeks and sighed: "Sorrow, there is something I can't figure out. What kind of small beast can trap a tiger? Hey, could he be a broken sleeve?"

Huo Sheng immediately said angrily: "Nonsense! General Wu is an upright man!"

Jia Cong suddenly remembered about his father, smiled obsequiously, waved his hands and said, "Okay, I understand." Then he walked away listlessly.He said these few words without thinking, but he didn't explain clearly; Huo Sheng was full of doubts behind him, and ordered someone to check on Wu Fengchun's second child surnamed Fu.

In the next few days, Huo Sheng searched all over Fu Er Er who had a good name, and there was nothing unusual.Jia Xuyi went to see Wu Fengchun every night, but saw that he was anxious every night, but no one threatened him.Qin Sangu went around to catch up with the elders and friends she knew in the past.

On the fifth day, Huo Sheng couldn't bear to look for Jia Cong.But seeing him lazily leaning on the vine, with a large basin of coconut meat picked by the servants, and holding this commentary, he glanced at it and coughed twice.Jia Cong waved at him, but did not get up: "Do you eat coconut meat? There is also a lot of coconut juice over there, which is pure natural and pollution-free."

Huo Sheng came over and said in a low voice, "Wu Fengchun is really strange."

"Huh!" Jia Cong's eyes lit up, and he jumped up from the floor, "What did you notice?"

Huo Sheng said: "He has been here for six days, why hasn't he left? What are you doing here? There is nothing else, and you have never found fault with him. According to the usual practice, you should return within three days at most. He went to his own place."

Jia Cong fell back on the couch again: "Think you've discovered something."

Huo Sheng pushed him anxiously: "Who is Fu's second child?"

Jia Cong cast a glance at him: "If I knew, would I still ask you? I just heard that he is an ordinary person, and Wu Fengchun is afraid of him." Seeing the words "You are teasing me" clearly written on Huo Sheng's face, the more he headache.Nai asked, "What is Wu Fengchun's temperament?"

Huo Sheng smiled and said: "This person is interesting. Sometimes he is square and square, like a saint; sometimes he is cunning and greedy. You will like it."

"Huh? Why?"

"The Gu family." Huo Sheng said, "I value my wife, children and siblings very much. General Wu's father fought all the year round, and his grandfather left early, so he was brought up by his grandfather when he was young. His grandfather was an old scholar, extremely pedantic. He once served as a county magistrate and was loyal to the imperial court. General Wu once uttered the truth after drinking that, depending on himself, he would never do such things as lying about military information and embezzling military funds. But it is really not easy at home."

Jia Cong curled his lips and said, "Come on, the birthday gift he gave to our ancestors that time is not an ordinary thing, he has a lot of greedy determination."

Huo Sheng said: "He has six brothers and three sisters, and he himself has four sons and three daughters, not counting the sprawling relatives, who are all supported by him."

Jia Cong leaned on his arm and said: "This old Wu is also very hardworking. Is there any surname Fu among his important relatives?"

"Oh!" Huo Sheng yelled in a low voice, "His parents seem to be named Fu!"

Jia Cong got up suddenly: "Go and check! Is there any Fu Er Er?"

Huo Sheng hurriedly ordered the guards outside to invite an "old king".Not long after, Lao Wang came, a very ordinary old man in his fifties.The old king said: "Wu Fengchun's mother is an only daughter, and there are no brothers in the family."

Jia Cong thought for a while, and asked, "Then his grandfather, Mr. Fu, did he leave behind any old servants?"

The old king said: "Mr. Fu is clean and honest, and he has no servants."

Jia Cong felt disappointed: "Co-authoring is a wordless ending." Then he looked up at Lao Wang a few times.This person's temples were beginning to turn white, wrinkles gradually appeared, his eyes were yellowish, and his skin was extremely rough. At first glance, he thought he was an old farmer.He couldn't help thinking of Zhou Camellia, and said with a slight smile, "Please trouble Mr. Wang." Old Wang saluted and left.

Little did they know that at this moment Wu Fengchun found Sangu Qin again.Sangu Qin came out from an old general, rode away for a while, and met Wu Fengchun, wearing ordinary civilian clothes, wearing a bamboo hat, and riding a donkey.Qin Sangu nodded slightly, and Wu Fengchun signaled with his eyes, patted the donkey and walked slowly ahead.Qin Sangu also pretended to be looking at the scenery, and followed leisurely.Turning around the fork in the road, Wu Fengchun's donkey turned into a small path and went up a mountain, and Sangu Qin followed.

Seeing another sharp turn ahead, Wu Fengchun suddenly said, "Who is next to the third shopkeeper?"

Qin Sangu said: "My own people."

Wu Fengchun said: "Can this one of us just wait here?"

Jia Xu said, "No."

Wu Fengchun looked at Sangu Qin again, and Sangu Qin said to Jia Xu, "You can wait here for now."

Jia Xu said decisively: "Not good." And winked.

Wu Fengchun said: "The little old man only talks to Qin San, the shopkeeper."

Jia Xu said, "The villain is both deaf and dumb."

Wu Fengchun narrowed his eyes and stared at Jia Xu, but Jia Xu just couldn't see.After staring at half a cup of tea, he sneered and said, "Okay. Since that's the case, you can come along." He urged the donkey to leave.

Qin Sangu turned her head to look at Jia Xu, Jia Xu winked again, and said loudly: "This subordinate is ordered to protect the third shopkeeper, and he will never leave half a step away. I hope the third shopkeeper will not make things difficult for his subordinates." gestured.

Qin Sangu hesitated and said, "General Wu must have something urgent."

Jia Xu said: "I don't care about the important things of my subordinates." The two of you chattered about each other.

But Wu Fengchun urged: "Hurry up and follow! What are you waiting for!" Hearing the voice, it seemed that he was not far away, and he just turned around the corner.

Jia Shudun felt uncomfortable and made a gesture.Qin Sangu was shocked, and said in her mouth: "The younger generation will come." The two turned their horses and ran, Qin Sangu in front and Jia Xu behind.Hearing Wu Fengchun yelling "what are you running" from behind, the two of them turned a deaf ear and beat the horse like flying.

All the way back to the post house, Qin Sangu jumped off the horse and wiped off her sweat: "It's so dangerous."

Jia Xu smiled wryly, "I'm getting more and more confused."

But when he got inside, he told Jia Cong, Jia Cong said inexplicably, "What are you running for?"

Jia Xu said: "He led Sangu to a secluded and deserted place. It was weird. If you want to say something confidential that no one will hear, the most appropriate place is to find a vast place, such as on a big tree, behind a stone, or under a bridge. No one would overhear. He lost his temper again, so we just walked forward, we would follow after we said a few words, he rode a donkey and we rode a horse. Why wait?"

Qin Sangu said: "I'm afraid there is an ambush over there."

Jia Xudao: "There are many vines and few trees on the mountain. The trees are tall and straight, so it's not easy to hide people. I think it's probably a trap."

Qin Sangu said: "The trap is wrong. I didn't tell him where he was going today, how did he prepare for the trap?"

Jia Cong clapped his hands with a "slap" and said, "He's already prepared!"

"Ok?"

Jia Cong said: "Third Aunt and Elder Sister have been meeting seniors and old friends everywhere these days. There are always a few people you want to meet sooner or later. Just prepare him in a certain place. Because I don't know when you will meet this person , so I spent several days at Huo Sheng's place. He is waiting for you to meet the person you met today, when will you go and when will he lure you in."

Qin Sangu wondered, "What is this for?"

Jia Cong said: "I don't know. Let's find Huo Sheng to borrow some people first, and go and find out if there is any trace of an agency ambush there just now."

Jia Xu said: "It's better for me to check quietly at night at night, so as not to disturb Huo Sheng."

Jia Cong nodded, and told about Huo Sheng's visit just now.Naichou said, "It's so weird, which side is this Wu Fengchun on?"

Qin Sangu said: "No matter which side it is, they should not attack me. If he is on the side of King Yan, I was sent by King Yan to investigate the matter; if he is not on the side of King Yan, he should be deceived by some fake news. I'll go, so that I can be coaxed away. If I die in Qiongzhou, will King Yan let it go?"

Qi Dian suddenly said: "This matter is somewhat similar to the military newspaper he wrote in his early years, as if he sincerely drew the imperial court's attention to Qiongzhou."

Qin Sangu said: "Didn't I come here? How could I have worked so hard to lure people over and kill them?"

Several people thought about it for a long time but couldn't find the reason, so they had to give up.After nightfall, Jia Xu walked alone to the place where Wu Fengchun led them today, and he found a trap.Going to see Wu Fengchun's residence again, it is slightly different.In the past, he was only anxious and worried, but today he lay down on the ground in the courtyard and wept loudly.From time to time, he punched the ground with his fists, smashing several blue bricks and breaking his hands.The old general had gray hair, and he looked pitiful under the moonlight.

The next day I heard that Wu Fengchun was ill.The military doctors in Huo Sheng's battalion went to investigate for half a day, but they couldn't find out the cause, they only said that it was stagnation in the chest and poor heart.Jia Cong thought he couldn't wait any longer.If he didn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in his gourd, Qin Sangu would not be safe.

Then ordered to blow smoke into Wu Fengchun's important guard house at midnight to catch him away.The man woke up in a daze, and found that he was somewhere in the wilderness, surrounded by blue will-o'-the-wisps. He immediately sat up and shouted, "Where are the ghosts playing tricks on your grandpa?"

I saw a white shadow slowly drifting over, faceless, with the back of the head in front.The soldiers asked, "Who are you!"

The white shadow was full of blue flames, and said leisurely, "Where is Fu Laoer?"

The soldier was stunned: "Which Fu's second child?"

Bai Ying said: "Where is the second child Fu next to Wu Fengchun?"

The soldier said: "There are several second children in our battalion. Hey, which one do you ask?"

Bai Ying suddenly floated in front of him, and grabbed the soldier's neck like lightning: "Where is Fu Lao Er, where is Fu Lao Er, where is Fu Lao Er..."

The guards were frightened this time, and shouted: "There are really several, which one do you ask! They are all in the guard camp..." He was pinched and passed out.

Qi. Dian pulled off the wig on his head and looked down at this person. He sent him back to the original place at night, and withdrew himself to tell Jia Cong.

Jia Cong wondered: "Why doesn't even his personal soldiers know about an unusual Fu Laoer? It's so weird."

Get up and say: "The ghost I'm pretending to be doesn't look like a ghost, but it looks like General Wu is possessed by a ghost."

"Oh!" Jia Cong suddenly understood, "I got it! I got it, I got it!" He couldn't help circling around excitedly, but then took the case again, "Not good! I have to go see this old man quickly." He ordered to change clothes , he is going to see Wu Fengchun right now.
