Chapter 109 A book page

Huai Yang Guan Palace has a side house, rumor has it that acid Xiu Cai pile, acid can not be heard, all are some sesame green bean size officials, Wen not martial arts, but the Lord Protector will often go in and out of the side house, in addition to the side house, this side house is very few people to visit.

With the outside world imagined not quite the same, the partial house is not cold and quiet only some of the old scholar gathered head sighing, on the contrary, here popularity is very strong, and many young faces, let the house looks especially energetic. Inside the house east and west walls hanging a map of the situation, both the northern Liang three states border geography, but also depicts the North Mang Gusai Long waist two states of the map, the situation on both walls of the map drawn by the content of the map is the same, but the old, old, the east wall hanging old, the west wall hangs new.

Inside the room two people a table to sit, table always have a person with a pen standing still, responsible for recording some words. Those desks are piled up with North Mang Fangzhi and secret files, many of which, I’m afraid that even the Ministry of War and the Ministry of the South do not have. The reason why the east and west walls were divided into old and new was a suggestion made by a junior student in the room, since the enemy commander Dong Zhuo had been keeping his troops still and did not show the slightest sign of wanting to deploy his troops on a large scale, then Bei Liang might as well start by exploring the clues from the changes made by the North Mang border troops to the two states bordering Liang and Mang over the past years, and circling the cities and towns that had increased their strengths in the last few years as well as those that had spent a lot of money on opening up new postal routes, as well as focusing on finding out the changes that had occurred along the Bei Mang border over the past years. As well as focusing on identifying the martial arts venues along the North Mang border over the years. Give this advice young man surnamed Yu, I heard that the previous is a idle field to cool the scholar, to rely on no door, can not find enough oil and water in the government offices, only to trust the relationship into the here, and surnamed Yu at the same time into the house of the miscellaneous stream of officials, there are six or seven, both the local full of military books in Beiliang with the unprecedented dip in the books will be seeded sons, and also with the young man’s surname Yu almost the root of the foot, are some other people pick up the rest do not want to The foreign scholar, the heart is higher than the sky life is thinner than paper ah.

This room older seniors, most are not mixed in the official field of the lost, have a common point, is the neck hard knee harder, do not know groveling, usually like to drink to drown their sorrows, a drink high natural can not control the mouth to talk about pointing out the country, and then suddenly one day was whisked to the water room of the spies carried to the border, and they did not even have the ability to greet their families, and then disappeared in thin air. They were at first frightened, thought it was to be that temperamental Chu big devil cut off the head to play, and later realized that it was to help do some analysis of the war situation of the thing, also gradually peace of mind, just although it is a guest of the Dugu House, is to help Dugu adults to do things, but there is no official body rank, there is no salary, not to the sky and not the ground, not really what a beautiful job, good thing that they have been in the official field of the people have long been worn out! Ambition, for the boring public affairs in the house, also stayed up sex, coupled with Chu Lushan Chu adult’s name is too appalling, each person is conscientious, for fear of their own one day let Chu Lushan feel that is not willing to work and complain about the official oil, and then was clicked and chopped off the head.

From time to time in and out of the house of outsiders, are from the whisk water room there out of the guy, constantly to the house of the people to send some strange things, there is the South Dynasty Ministry of War recently promoted the situation of the paperwork, the Ministry of the Ministry of Food and Herbs about the degree of loss of folding, and even some of the texture of the paper, specific to the beacon flint which a postal road repair money are written. And these whisk water room spies come and go in a hurry, enter the house are not a word, put down the archives secret record and left in silence, always without looking. With the house temporarily in charge of Mr. Hong said privately, that can be murder without blinking sleep without closing the eyes of the ruthless. Older, like Hong adults believe in more work less talk, at most occasionally lament a few words, and like that called Yu Dezhi within the young man, is to be more freshman calves are not afraid of tigers, dare to speak freely in the house, young to cool the scholar Li Yu and his father is Lingshou County magistrate Zhao Tassel, two days ago, there was also a fight on the North Mang army in the end is the main attack on the flow of the state or feint flow of the state noisy flip-flopping, and even the Chu adults have been alarmed.

At dusk, the eyes are not good, Lord Hong even sitting in the best light of the window position, began to light an oil lamp, and then he craned his neck when he heard a habitual sound of broken footsteps, turned his head to look at, is an extremely young and tender face whisking the water room spies, into the house, handed a letter of things in the arms of the responsible for receiving the objects of the Wang Guifang Wang adults. Hong big man to these once let them all the officials in northern Liang feel creepy in the shadow of the people, is no longer so afraid, not that Hong big man bold fat, but after all, in the Lord Protector to do the job, is like the door on the head pasted a golden life preservation talisman, what is there to be afraid of? But to say that Mr. Hong to these people have a good feeling, it is absolutely impossible, not only him, most people in the room, do not want to get involved with the water whisk room on the relationship of half a coin.

Lord Hong overheard his old friend Wang Guifang waiting for that young spy to walk out, revealing a face of carefully concealed dislike and obscurity, pinching that copy with his fingers and quickly placing it on the scion Yu Dezhi’s book case.

Lord Hong stood up, pretending to look at the map on the wall, way to Yu Dezhi’s desk, glimpsed that it was a book page that should have been ripped off casually, soaked mostly in blood, only the blood had already dried.

Mr. Hong helplessly shook his head, these whisk water room spies are also too unpolite, every now and then to send things, either is wrinkled, and once carried out from the water as if, or is still able to shake out the gravel to, this time this time is even more exaggerated, but also stained with blood.

Outside the house in the twilight, the young spy raised his arm, wiped his eyes hard, and then walked down the steps to stride away.

Spy saw a young man in civilian clothes standing in front of the courtyard, mutual a survey, the spy’s eyes are full of extremely well hidden wariness, intuition tells the guy in front of him if the enemy, he is afraid that there is only one way to die. The two brushed past, the young spy even if he knew that this person can appear in the Lord Chu personally watched the Palace, that is certainly not the Northern Mang secret agent. But the young man is still not easy to detect slightly bent over, a hand shrunk in the sleeve tube, wait until the distance between the two people to pull away, he was relieved, found himself holding the dagger palms full of sweat. The young spy was a little curious, that guy was not too old, why could he make himself subconsciously assume the stance of an enemy?

When Xu Fengyen quietly walked into the house, Wang Guifang, who was near the door of the bookcase, raised his eyes, thinking that it was just another spy from the water whisking room, stood up and stretched out his hand.

Xu Fengyen asked softly, “Where is the thing that was sent just now?”

That Yu Dezhi snapped his head up, just about to open his mouth to speak, when he saw this slightly dressed Northern Liang King shaking his head slightly, and would have understood that he just stood up and handed the piece of paper to Xu Fenian.

He is precisely the central plains warlord Yu’s eldest grandson of the long house Yu Luan knife, alias Yu Dezhi, in this house playing miscellaneous, no name, all day long to those Fangzhi secret file literature pick and choose, in fact, Yu Luan knife as long as you want to get an official position, not to mention other people, deeply respected by Xu Fengyen Liangzhou assassin Hu Kui can give him a fourth grade military generals. Yu Luan knife handed Xu Fengyen that paper, is the old South Tang Dynasty literary hero Liu Jingsheng that famous collection of essays “small window” of a page, in the spring and autumn of the old man is widely circulated, but this South Tang version of the rare book page is not much value, the text on the page of the contents of the book is also popular, but the book page to add to the back of that line of the pen in a hurry to go to the word, maybe not the words of the word, but certainly more than the pen of the man’s life, more expensive! Some.

Before the big battle, the scouts die first.

But many people are not clear about one thing, the spy will die before the more. And will only die a silent death, not even call it tragic.

Yu Luan knife want to open to explain those scattered obscure unwritten word, in whisking water room unique secret files should be strung to explain why. Outsiders do not know whisking water room has an extremely hidden “to solve the word book”, different dead spies correspond to their respective sayings to solve the word, so even if a confidential spy was intercepted by the North Mang, is still meaningless. And send this page of the spy in the whisking water room code name is twenty-four, Yu Luan knife then need to be on the desk that “book of deciphering words” to go up and turn the twenty-fourth, can come up with the exact content.

Xu Fengnian was silent, holding the page tightly, walking under the wall and looking up at a map of the situation in Guseizhou.

Lord Hong was confused, not like those who acted as stereotypical whisking water room spies, guessing whether this person would be a general’s son or daughter who was related to which big shot in the capital, otherwise he could not walk into this room. Look at the situation, he and Wang Guifang said privately as “depressed and uninspired before the scene” Yu Dezhi and this person most likely acquaintance. Mr. Hong tugged Yu Dezhi’s sleeve and said softly: “Xiao Yu, is it your friend? This can be out of order ah, if it is known by the Lord Protector, you and I can be eaten in the pocket to go …….”

Yu Luan knife whispered: “No harm.”

Usually again good talk Hong adults can not help but anxious eyes, Chu DuGuo set the rules in the northern Liang border than the sky is big, you a small scholar said there is no harm on no harm? At that time a room full of people are going to be you bad rules Yu Dezhi even dragged down miserable!

Mr. Hong was about to remind the young man that it was time to leave the house, when he heard the man reciting, “The historical family is unfortunate, the country is fortunate, the country is not prospering, the poetic family is prospering …….”

The cold hard reading for many years, Mr. Hong immediately understood, this is not the old Southern Tang Dynasty prose writer Liu Jingsheng wrote in the “small window” in the passages well.

Next, Mr. Hong saw the young man gently smoothing out the somewhat wrinkled pages of the book and handing them back to Yu Dezhi.

After Yu Luan Dao received the page, he handed it to Lord Hong and blandly said, “Lord Hong, this page can be filed. The words contained in the book page have already been deciphered by my subordinates, and later on, I would appreciate it if Your Excellency would ask someone to send it to Chu Dugu’s study.”

Lord Hong received the pages of the book, a glimpse, not much deep impression, just feel that those words outlined hard, turn stagnant.

Women play knife man embroidery general, really unpleasant to look at ah.

Hong big man for no reason to look up sharply, saw that the young man expressionless looking at himself, so that this adult instantly creep.

But soon the young man laughed and said softly, “Does your lordship think that the words on the pages of the book are a bit unpleasant to look at?”

Being read through his mind, Lord Hong smiled sarcastically, unable to answer.

The man didn’t count on anything, but only slightly raised his voice, “All the adults in the house have worked hard.”

After saying this, before Lord Hong could slander anything, he saw him walking straight towards the door of the house.

Mr. Hong first saw Wang Guifang standing in the doorway as if he were a wooden chicken, and only after that did he see that outside the house stood Beiliang Capital Protector Chu Lushan, Cavalry Commander Yuan Zuozong, Infantry Commander Yan Wenluan, and there were many more people at the back, so that Mr. Hong didn’t dare to look any further.

If this is not shocking, then even more so that Hong big man scalp numb is that young man, just so across the threshold, walked out.

Outside the room, those handful of people who deservedly had the most power and prestige in Northern Liang were all giving way to him.
