Chapter two hundred and forty seventh

Chapter 247: Getting together

Whether it was expectation or disgust, the old man Hou Junji came back in the end, three days ahead of the expected itinerary.

When he arrived in Sanyuan County, it was late at night and the sky was a little dark. Hou Junji refused the invitation from Cheng Chumo, a county magistrate, to enter the city on the grounds that it was not easy to disturb the people at night and the commander did not easy to leave the army. He directly ordered his soldiers to set up camp on the edge of the city.

This is not in line with the etiquette system, but judging from Hou Junji's appearance, it is not the first time he has done this. It is just that he has done more thoroughly in Sanyuan County.

When Hou Junji saw the old enemy Cheng Chumo for the first time, he felt unhappy. He sent a martial artist and a martial artist who had some hatred for him as the county magistrate. Isn’t the emperor obviously favoring Liu Yip?

For the sake of an irrelevant civilian, Hou Junji was dissatisfied with a general who had just made great achievements.

No matter how angry Cheng Chumo was or how clamored here, Hou Junji waved his hand and ordered the guard beside him to bombard him.

When Cheng Chumo was the commander of the Imperial Guard, Hou Junji might be afraid of him, but now, he is just an eighth-rank county magistrate, and it is already a great favor to stop beating him.

"Hou Kuan," Hou Junji sat in the tent and shouted out lightly. After that, a thin middle-aged man stepped in.

"Master." Hou Kuan bowed to show his respect to Hou Junji. Even in the military camp, he still used the title of home.

"Well," Hou Junji looked up and looked at him, and said, "Tonight, you will ride a fast horse back to Chang'an, inform the lady and the young master, and said that I am back. If there is anything, I will talk about it when I return to Chang'an."

"Yes, lord." Hou Kuan said softly.

"In addition, tell Jian'er that I will get his right leg back tonight so that he can rest assured to heal his wounds."

Last time when Hou Yun sent someone to deliver the letter, he specially brought a detailed map of Sanyuan to Hou Junji, which marked the location of Liu Yixin House.

And this map is now placed on the table in front of Hou Junji. The location of the Liu family on the map was painted black.

Hou Junji looked at the black dot, and a murderous aura flashed in his eyes.

"Okay, you go now!" Hou Junji waved at Hou Kuan and signaled him to retreat.

"Only one day later," Gongsun Wenda picked up the tea bowl on the table, took a sip, looked at Yang Bofang next to him, and said, "This old man Hou is really an impatient person, but unfortunately, he is still one step late. After all, he is still a little better than that guy, haha."

"However, looking at his appearance, he didn't seem to know that he had gone to Chang'an. Tonight, Gutian Village will be in trouble." Yang Bofang showed a compassionate expression and gently pushed the chess forward.

Some days, Gongsun’s chess power has grown longer. Yang Bofang is playing chess with him, and he is a little stretched.

"Those are not something we should worry about. Isn't there another county magistrate Cheng in the county?" Gongsun Wenda put down his tea bowl, rolled up the cannons and slammed the pawns, and said proudly to Yang Bofang: "Isn't his responsibility just to maintain peace? I don't know what he will do in the face of Hou Junji, but I'm very looking forward to the old man."

"Although Cheng Chumo has a good military force, how big can he make in front of the 30,000 iron-blooded army? Hou Junji's soldiers are not vegetarians." Yang Bofang said dismissively, "However, the people above are willing to send him over, which is a signal that a boy is blessed."

"When did that kid have ever been blessed?" Gongsun Wuda said, "After he planned to come out of the mountain, have you seen what losses he suffered and what grievances he suffered? Think about Qu Tuzi Qu, Wu Zuijian, this kid is not as kind as his appearance. If he really acts ruthless, it will be really scary."

Yang Bofang rushed to the barracks again, glanced at Gongsun Wenda, and said, "Everyone has a bottom line in his heart that he doesn't want people to touch. Just like when Xiaolan'er was assassinated last time, Gongsun's actions were not inferior to a virtuous nephew at all, right? That Wu Zuijian touched the bottom line of a virtuous nephew. He shouldn't have cut off Brother Liu's right leg."

"Well," Gongsun Wenda nodded lightly and expressed his understanding of Yang Bofang's words. If Wu Zuijian cut off Gongsun Helan's right leg this time, the Gongsun family would probably be a hundred times more intense than Liu Yi. In comparison, Liu Yi's approach is already very gentle.

"But, aren't you going to take care of the Liu Mansion tonight?" Gongsun Wenda glanced at Yang Bofang and said, "Aren't you afraid that the madman in Hou can't find the person and starts a massacre?"

"Why do you want me to do this kind of thing?" Yang Bo Fang said without even raising his head, "A nephew is no longer in Sanyuan, and the people of the Liu family are not safe and have no need to take action anymore. Moreover, I have confidence in a nephew. Although they left in a hurry this time, the boy should have done his best to explain the funeral. There is no need to worry at all."

After taking another step, Yang Bofang raised his head, looked at Gongsun Wenda, and said, "Why haven't you seen Helan's virtuous nephew? Are you practicing his bone-removing technique again?"

"I followed a nephew's butt to Chang'an early this morning." Gongsun Wenda chuckled and shook his head, and said with some savor: "For his elder brother, Xiao Lan'er is much closer to us two old guys."

"However, since I met a virtuous nephew, Xiao Lan'er has changed a lot. Compared with the past, she has become much more stable. She starts to pay attention to things and is no longer as sluggish as before." Gongsun Wuda narrowed his eyes and went out to force his horse, looking comfortable.

My son has grown abilities, so there is no reason why he is unhappy when he is a son.

"I have also made some arrangements in Chang'an City. Although Hou Junji is strong, it will not be so easy if he wants the life of a virtuous nephew." Yang Bofang rolled Gongsun Wenda's cart with one shot, and the situation in the chess game turned around.

Cheng Chumo returned to the government office from the military camp outside the city with a green face. Before he could sit down, someone handed over a letter. Looking at the handwriting on the cover, it was written by the authentic "Liu Calligraphy".

After reading the letter, Cheng Chumo's expression slowed down slightly. His two huge eyes turned in his sockets twice. Finally, he stood up, folded the letter paper, and placed it on the candlelight beside him, and a fire broke into a torch.

"Cheng Zhong!" Cheng Chumo shouted loudly and ordered loudly: "Gather all the servants in the government office, let's move into the Liu Mansion in Gutian Village tonight!"

"Yes, lord!" Cheng Zhong also responded with Gao outside, then went to the front house and summoned people to go.

"Liu Yi, I, Cheng, will believe you once!" Cheng Chumo snorted lightly, then turned around and entered the inner room, changed into the county magistrate's uniform that he had always felt awkward, put a long knife on his waist, and then followed him out.

When he walked to the front office, Cheng Zhong had already summoned all the servants in the county, and there were 50 totals. Although it was not many, it was enough.

"Tonight, I went to Liu's house just for the fun and nothing else. Without my master's orders, you just watch, listen, don't care about anything, don't ask anything, otherwise you will lose your life and you will not blame others!" Cheng Chumo looked at the fifty people in front of him coldly and shook his head. These people were far inferior to the imperial guards he had led before.

"Yes, sir!" The servants answered in unison. Although they were very strange about Cheng Chumo's words, no one dared to stand up and ask.

I don’t know if it’s their good luck or bad luck when I get such a vicious county magistrate.

"Master," Cheng Zhongsi also noticed something was wrong, so he came forward lightly and whispered beside Cheng Chumo: "Do you want to bring the twenty guards in the mansion that came with you, just in case?"

"No need," Cheng Chumo shook his head lightly and said, "This trip is just for deterrence, and it will not be useful if you take too many people."

"Okay, let's go!" Cheng Chumo glanced at the servant below and took the lead in carrying out the government office. Outside the government gate, the carriages and horses were all ready.

In the Liu Mansion, the groom Wang An had already transferred the horses from his home, and the maids and female relatives in the family were also sent to another place by him according to Liu's prior arrangement. Now, there are only eight young males left behind in the Liu Mansion.

Cleaning the house, cleaning the courtyard, and feeding the oxen, acts as usual.

However, in a remote corner of the backyard of Liu Mansion, there were some abnormal movements.

Three left-behind servants were slowly waving shovels, one by one, one by one, and another, digging the soil on the side to fill the soil.

In the pit, you can vaguely see some large boxes wrapped in black wood cast iron, flashing with attractive lights in the dim lights.
