Chapter 141 141: Beimo, Ten Crows 【Ask monthly ticket】
"The sun rises in the pavilion at the beginning of the stream cloud, and the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is all over the building... Mr. Gu is trying to remind me of something?" Shen Tang looked at Gu Chi with a half-smile, opened a jar of wine and handed it to him, and said, "Gu I will help you convey the reminder to Yuan Liang."
"It's not a reminder, and Qi Yuanliang knows it well."
Gu Chi took the round belly wine jar from Shen Tang.
Slap the size of a dozen mouthfuls.
People who are not very good at drinking can also drink a pot.
He said: "Based on my understanding of Qi Yuanliang, he has always disliked doing meaningless things. If there is no profit, why come to Xiaocheng? The geographical location of Xiaocheng is doomed to make this place unsafe , why did he take that risk?"
At the critical moment, he remained silent.
This is very unreasonable!
Gu Chi's words seemed like casual chat.
Shen Tang is only an audience member and does not participate in discussions.
Someone provided drinks for free, Gu Chi was not polite, he drank three or four jars of wine in a row, until he became dizzy from drinking, making his pale cheeks look a little more bloody. Shen Tang chatted with him a few words, and there was a servant dressed as a servant not far away at the corner looking around.
When the line of sight locked on Gu Chi, his eyes suddenly lit up.
He ran forward quickly, not even able to catch his breath: "Mr. Gu, why are you here? The little master is looking for you everywhere, please go with the little one."
Shen Tang felt that the servant's outfit looked familiar.
Slowly remembered, isn't this the servant of the county mansion?
Last time, a servant from the county government bought a lot of wine from her.
Isn’t the head of the County Household Ding the county guard?
When did Gu Chi get in touch with the Sheriff of Sibao County?
Shen Tang remained calm.
Gu Chi rubbed his brows, his eyes were slightly drunk, he smiled apologetically at his servant, and said in a good-tempered way: "I smelled the smell of wine on the road, and the wine worms in my stomach were woken up. I ran out without telling the sheriff. It’s my fault. Please lead the way, this will pass.”
Jia Ding was flattered: "Don't dare."
He even helped Gu Chi pay for the drink with a wink.
Shen Tang took the broken silver with a smile.
Oh hoo, windfall.
Originally, Gu Chi was invited to drink for free. Since someone is willing to pay for him, the money is not for nothing. Shen Tang smiled like a money fanatic, and weighed the weight of the broken silver, feeling very satisfied in his heart.
Gu Chi found an excuse to get his servant to avoid him.
He said: "Does Shen Lang know about Lingzhou?"
Shen Tang looked up in surprise: "Lingzhou?"
Gu Chi said: "Fake girls acted as swindlers to mess with Beichen, and twenty roads of smoke and dust rushed to the Purple Palace... Soon after, there may be twenty factions fighting endlessly... Tsk, Lingzhou is not close but not far from here. The news, no matter what, it should come..."
Shen Tang blinked in confusion.
"What, what does this... mean?"
Gu Chi got up and brushed off the dust that didn't exist on his clothes, his face still half drunk: "It's nothing, Shen Lang take care."
Shen Tang watched Gu Chi's back leave until his figure disappeared around the corner and was completely out of sight. The habitual smile on his face gradually faded away, replaced by a frosty complexion—
She naturally knew what happened in Lingzhou.
The ancestral home of Lin Feng's family is in Lingzhou. Because of the war there, the Lin family had to go south to seek refuge with their relatives. It didn't take long for these things to happen. The urgent letters that changed everywhere were also intercepted by the gang of bandits by mistake...
Or, he has a more secretive and quicker information channel.
Or, he is simply an insider of this matter.
Thinking about his last words again, it is basically concluded that it is the latter.
I have analyzed the bad prayer before, there are foreign forces acting as [shit] sticks in the northwest, either Beimo or Shiwu. Coincidentally, the sheriff of Sibao County is an idiot whose **** is so crooked, and Gu Chi has something to do with him—and behind Gu Chi is the Beimo forces.
so-
Beimo and Shiwu joined forces?
Even if it is not a joint venture, there must be cooperation.
The servant invited Gu Chi back, and the sheriff greeted him warmly. He keenly sensed that there seemed to be no smell of alcohol on his body, and smiled even more: "Mr. Gu is good at wine? There are just a few jars of old wine in the house. , Turn back and ask someone to send it to Mr.
Inwardly, he secretly rolled his eyes.
Gu Chi had a sick face that was not long in the world, instead of taking good care of his body, he was addicted to alcohol, and he didn't know how many years his body could be ruined. If it weren't for Gu Chi's ability to use it, he didn't really want to deal with this person. It's really because Gu Chi is too similar to someone he knew before.
Those eyes can always make him uncomfortable.
Gu Chi didn't seem to hear the voice of the sheriff's duplicity, and cupped his hands in a seemingly casual manner, thanking him without sincerity.
The Sheriff didn't take his faux pas to heart either.
He came to Gu Chi this time to discuss something.
About that batch of tax money.
He wanted to delay, but the imperial court pressed him.
Although Zheng Qiao has lost the hearts of the people, he is still a long way from falling, and the county guard still has to rely on his breath, so naturally he dare not slow down his work too much, and even prepares extra rare treasures as a filial piety.
Since it is going to be delivered, it must be delivered safely.
What makes him worry is that he is seriously short of people now.
There are two reasons.
For one thing, the territory of Sibao County is not safe. In order to ensure the safety of tax and bank, several fake teams were assigned to confuse the eyes and ears. Although the things transported by the fake teams were fake, the escorting troops were real.
Secondly, in order to catch Gong Wen who had gone somewhere, the garrison of Sibao County was ordered to arrest him, but there was no news about Gong Wen except that he appeared in the mountains outside Xiaocheng a while ago.
If Gong Wen cannot be caught, the troops sent out will not be recovered.
The sheriff has not been able to sleep well these days.
In order to solve this problem, he wanted to borrow their private trilogy from the local aristocratic family in Sibao County. Retreat faster than one.
The county guard's attitude is a bit stronger, they are not afraid, there are still many ways to disgust him - either crying poor or weak, saying that these private soldiers are not that powerful, and at most they are better than the government servants on duty. They want to see Home Nursing Home.
If there is no private part, I am worried that there will be chaos for the people.
In short, if you say a thousand words and ten thousand, you just don’t borrow.
The county guard was forced to do nothing but find another way—for example, invite the brothers Zhai Huan as foreign aid.
One article and one military, the two cooperate tacitly.
The ancestral home of the two brothers is in the southeast, and they only travel to the northwest for traveling.
The sheriff made a private visit to Weibo not long ago, and secretly consulted with Zhai Huan, and the result of the conversation was quite satisfactory.
Now, there is only one last step left.
The sheriff said: "Shiwu and Beimo are allies, and they should help each other and seek a win-win situation. Do you think so?"
All he had to do was tell Gu Chi that Bei Mo should not stab him behind his back.
This tax payment must not be unexpected!
