Chapter 1215

The carriage rolled over the bluestone slab and moved forward slowly. It was dark when it left Cui's house. Fang Xie left Cui's house and went to Dugu Wenxiu's house to visit Dugu Wenxiu's mother. But on the way, Fang Xie suddenly changed his mind and the carriage went directly back to Changchun Garden.

Dugu Wenxiu, who had been waiting outside the mansion for a long time, didn't get the news until the night shrouded Chang'an city that the LORD would not come today. Dugu Wenxiu stood at the door for a long time, then turned back to the yard. He helped his mother who was waiting with him. Both of them were lonely.

"You kneel down"

After entering the door, the old lady pointed to her face and said three words.

Dugu Wenxiu was stunned. He didn't know what was wrong, but he knelt down. Their mother and son depend on each other. Dugu is a filial person. He is simple and doesn't pay attention to food and clothing, but he pays special attention to his mother.

"Come on, what have you done wrong?"

The old man asked.

Dugu Aotian then realized and shook his head: "I didn't do anything wrong, or the Lord encountered something urgent. Go back and deal with it."

"Don't think I'm confused. I'm not old."

The old lady is really not old, and she is not yet 50.

"If it's an urgent state matter, the Lord will return to Taiji palace instead of Changchun Garden. According to my understanding of the Lord, he is not a person who has broken his word. In recent years, I have seen and heard enough to know a person. The Lord is clear about love and hate and fair. He must not come today because of his own reasons, but because of his own reasons What did you do wrong, so he didn't think he had to come. "

Dugu felt very bitter.

Unspeakable pain.

"I really didn't do anything wrong. I'm conscientious and don't dare to slack off in the court. Even though I don't dare to be proud of my achievements, I don't dare to belittle myself. If the Lord is dissatisfied with me, maybe it's just because I don't have enough ability and don't do my best."

Obviously, the old lady did not dispel her doubts because of these words. After a moment of silence, she said slowly: "You should know how hard our life was in those days. I sold all my jewelry and exchanged gold and silver for a way to help you have a good future. But people cheated me of all my silver and it was difficult to live. If your eldest brother didn't help us later, we might be reduced to beggars. Later, you said that the black flag army was fighting in the southwest. What do you think of the black flag army Unlike the rebels, it's a place where you can show your ambition. "

"I sold my house and collected a sum of money for your money. Fortunately, you settled down in the black flag army, but you are just a small official who keeps track of calculations. If it weren't for the Lord's insight, you would have today's status? When the LORD left Chang'an, you may do so much to keep the house for him. Although I didn't leave home, I also know when the LORD left For more than a year, Chang'an City has not been peaceful. "

"Mother, you worry too much."

Dugu Wenxiu said.

The old lady shook her head: "Listen to me... Most of the people who come in and out of our house these days are strangers. They haven't seen these people before the LORD left Chang'an. When the LORD left, they all came. Speaking of it, they didn't see you holding power? They flattered you and flattered you not because of your own ability, but because of the power given to you by the Lord. If you squander it yourself This trust, then your road can only be narrower and narrower in the future. "

"I still remember that the housekeeper of the mansion was trusted by the master and entrusted everything to him. Although Dugu family was not a rich family in those days, there was no one comparable in that small place. After the housekeeper took power, he made many big friends and felt more and more arrogant. Later, he embezzled the money of the mansion and bought land for himself Running a business firm, these things can't be wrapped in paper after all. When things come out, he thinks the master will let go, but he's out of the house. This is the best end. "

"Then he felt that he had met so many important people. Even if the officials didn't take him in, the rich businessmen should give him some face. So he went to take refuge in the rich businessmen, but he was driven out, and none of them was willing to take him in. Finally, he scolded his voice and died on the roadside. Before he died, he didn't understand this truth... It wasn't because people made friends with him He is not a man, but because he is the housekeeper of Dugu family! "

"The housekeeper who has been expelled from the mansion has no face to speak of. To put it bluntly, they are looking at the face of Dugu family, not his."

The old lady sighed: "You should remember that your current position is just like your Lord's housekeeper. They respect you, fear you, win over you and flatter you only because of your identity. When you start to squander this trust like the housekeeper of Dugu family, your Lord and you are getting farther and farther away. What will happen to you when he loses his last trust in you? He is still flattering you now Will those who gather you still be so warm? "

She looked at Dugu Wenxiu and said, "you're not a fool, so I don't need to say too much. If you know what you've done wrong, go to see the Lord now and confess it all by yourself. Based on my understanding of the Lord, if you go by yourself, he won't be too difficult for you."

"What if the Lord doesn't see me?"

Dugu Wenxiu asked.

"Isn't it more embarrassing?"

The old lady was slightly stunned, and then lost her mind: "silly boy... If the Lord doesn't see you today, there will be no embarrassment. Because... He has decided what."

……

……

Ye Manwen tilted his legs and looked puzzled: "what kind of play is Fang Xie singing? As soon as he came back, he went to see you first, and then he went to see Dugu Wenxiu's mother. As a result, he suddenly went back on the way. What's this for? In the middle of the night, he was called by you when he was asleep!"

He yawned, obviously dissatisfied.

Cui you gave him a cold look: "if there's no accident, Fang Xie is already doubting Ziheng. I don't know if he doubts me, but from his attitude towards Ziheng today, he's here to explore the truth. I deliberately made some small mistakes in front of Fang Xie to make him think I'm not worried. But I'm not sure if I can deceive him."

He looked at the wrench on his hand and his face was gloomy: "I was negligent when I came here. I was so poor that I attracted Fang Xie's attention. If I took three carts of gold and silver to Beijing, he had no doubt. So I deliberately exposed this trigger, and then pretended to be afraid that he would find it hidden in his sleeve. Fang Xie must have seen it. I hope he can dispel some doubts."

"Brilliant"

Dugu Bingwen praised: "a trigger, just a small move, can make the opponent relax his vigilance."

Cui you snorted: "let's discuss something else... Dugu Wenxiu has been to Changchun Garden all night, and I've sent someone to watch. Now what we need to be vigilant is not Fang Xie's suspicion of Ziheng, but Fang Xie's suspicion of Dugu Wenxiu! If Dugu Wenxiu can't enter Changchun Garden tonight, our plans will change."

"Is it too abrupt?"

Bai Lao was puzzled: "there is no sign, Fang Xie. What is this abacus?"

Cui Youdao: "He just wanted to be surprised. He deliberately played tricks on Dugu Wenxiu, which is an attitude of showing others. If Dugu Wenxiu asks for a meeting outside Changchun Garden tonight, he will not be able to see us... I'm afraid it will not be good for us. This person has a cruel heart. Maybe the will to depose Dugu Wenxiu will come out of Changchun Garden tomorrow morning. Take us by surprise... Let's go It's hard to find someone like Dugu Wenxiu! "

Ye Manwen stirred up the spirit, and his sleepiness immediately disappeared. He sat up straight and asked: "Do you want to start in advance? Now the team of Fang Xie hasn't returned to Chang'an city. He only brought tens of thousands of people back. He left many people to guard the place along the way. Not many people have brought back! Ziheng now has at least 150000 people. If Chang'an city is blocked, he has a good chance of winning!"

"If we do it tonight, Fang Xie will not be on guard. Can't we kill several old monsters with all our strength? Even if the cook's cultivation is terrible and Fang Xie's own cultivation is strong, we will lose when the fish die and the net is broken!"

"What's your hurry!"

Dugu Bingwen glared at him: "We haven't arrived yet. If we start in such a hurry, even if we win, it will cost us too much. If we put all our strength in the open, we will die a lot of people! Isn't it because we have strength in our hands that we can control those families now? If we lose all our strength, we'll have a hard time in the future! Those people are our dogs and we have big sticks in our hands , these dogs are obedient. If we don't have big sticks in our hands, those dogs will bite us back! "

Cui right clicked: "Dugu Aotian is right... If we start rashly, maybe that's what Fang Xie wants. He just uses such a small trick to make us in a mess, and he will succeed. First, if Dugu Wenxiu can't go to Changchun Garden tonight, let's think of another way. Ziheng's men and horses can't move now. Although Fang Xie's team didn't bring them back, it's light Riding is too powerful... Once we miss, we won't have a second chance. "

"What Fang Xie has been busy with these days is the enfeoffment of the generals. Before long, the generals will leave Chang'an with their men and horses and go to the local garrison. At that time, there will only be Ziheng's men and horses in the city, so it will be easier to start!"

Cui you said, "but we can't wait... Send someone to keep an eye on changchunyuan. I'll let Ziheng go back to the camp. If something bad happens, we won't be too passive."

Cui Zhongzhen nodded: "I'll go back now."

At this time, someone came in and said eagerly, "there has been a change. Dugu Wenxiu is still waiting outside Changchun Garden, but Fang Xie summoned Wei Xiting!"

Everyone's face immediately changed!

You know, Fang Xie transferred Wei Xiting back to Beijing, but there has been no formal appointment. Fang Xie didn't see Dugu Wenxiu tonight, but summoned Wei Xiting all night... This is not a good signal.

……

……

Fang Xie played with a pair of lion heads in his hand with a slightly dignified expression. Many people were in the room. San Jin Hou Wu sat next to him, and Xiang qingniu sat on the other side. Ye zhuhan and Shiwan, who had almost recovered, were also there, and the cook sat in front of them.

Sitting opposite Fang Xie was Zhou banchuan, President of the martial arts academy, and Wei Xiting, who came in a hurry.

"Calm down."

Fang Xie suddenly said: "up to now, he has only sent some people to stare at Changchun Garden without any action... It seems that I still underestimated these people. They are all those who can hold their temper..."

After his words, Chen Xiaoru quickly came in from the outside.

"My Lord, Cui Zhongzhen has gone to camp."

Hearing this, Fang Xie's mouth slightly picked up: "go, let Dugu in."
