The night was getting deeper, and the upper and lower rooms of the station were quiet, leaving only the sound of candlelight jumping in the air.
"Nourish it..."
Nangong Yue pondered for a moment, and raised her eyes to command: "Xiao Ying, you go back first." Means, Xiao Ying's undercover mission has not ended.
"Yes, Princess of the World." Xiao Ying took a corner of his mouth and walked away in a hurry, so he almost hummed.This errand is enough for him to have fun for several days!
Looking at his brisk back, Bai Hui shook his head silently, and felt a little sympathy in his heart for a moment.
Zhou Dacheng, who had just left her front foot and had some messy hair on her hind foot, also heard the sound. Bai Hui then told Zhou Dacheng what Xiao Ying had just said, and he heard his eyebrows locked tightly.
"Young Master..." Zhou Dacheng stopped talking and wanted to persuade Nangong Yue to leave.Although there are still a hundred soldiers stationed outside the town, it is still not comprehensive enough.It is better for him to take some people to stay and investigate slowly...
Nangong Yue saw Zhou Dacheng's hesitation and said, "Chou Dacheng, you will go to the mine tomorrow to personally urge that Deng to take charge!"
She believes that once urgent, such a large amount of iron ore will definitely make Deng manage them to mess up their hands and feet, so naturally there will be more actions...
Zhou Dacheng also understood the deep meaning of Nangong Yue. If it was not for the prince of the world, why would the prince of the world be in danger!
Zhou Dacheng's heart was filled with emotion and he respectfully clenched his fist to lead his life: "Yes, son."
"Xiao An!"
Nangong Yue gave a soft call, and the next moment, Xiao An pushed through the door and came in from the outside.
"Son." Xiao secretly clenched his fists in an expressionless standby.
Nangong Yue did not hesitate to order: "Xiao An, you go to the mine and stare for a while. If there is any movement, come back immediately."
After Xiao Anxi responded like a golden word, he retreated with Zhou Dacheng.
After the candlelight in the room was blown out, it never lighted again until dawn...
It wasn't until the third day that Nangong Yue lazily yawned and came down from the second floor of the post.
Wang Xiancheng has been waiting for more than an hour, and his heart is irritable, but he dare not have any complaints.In four days, when the Fangjia Mine has handed over the iron ore, the second son Xiao will naturally leave.
Thinking of this, the county Cheng felt hopeful. After diligent greetings, he took Nangong Yue and his party to the county government office, and then to the most expensive restaurant in the town, the most famous scenic spot, the most exquisite temple... …
But this is really a small place. After a while, most of the town has been visited. Almost all the people in the town know that the town has come and even Wangxian Cheng has to bow his head and entertain the noble.
When I came out after listening to the music in a tea house, the sky was dim and the sunset was mostly lost.
Bai Hui whispered in the ear of Nangong Yue with a supportive gesture without a trace: "Son, since Yunlai Restaurant, someone quietly followed us all day..." Now the two dark guards Without being by his side, Zhou Dacheng also went to the mine, and now Shizi's side is relying on her and Lily, so Bai Hui cautiously raised 120,000 vigilance.
Nangong Yue's lips and corners are slightly hooked. Someone will follow. Someone will follow Deng's guilty conscience and anxiety. He will definitely act!
"Master Wang!" Nangong Yue turned around and complained angrily, "Your town is too small, there is nothing fun! Also, this backcountry... Forget it, my son still went to the post!"
While Wang Xiancheng apologized repeatedly, he secretly relieved his breath. The younger son Xiao was really energetic, his two legs were broken, and the other party did not see a little fatigue...
So they went back to their homes again, and when they returned to the post, the sky was completely dark, and Wang Xiancheng, who had been with him for a whole day, retired tiredly.
After Nangong Yue returned to the room, the whole person relaxed and took a sigh of relief.After playing all day, she wasn't tired, but in order to let Deng manage the group lightly, she still had to perform a full set of this play.
The surface was calm on this day, but it was hidden and surging...
In the middle of the night, Xiao Anfeng came back servantly and presented a secret letter.
"Master, after Zhou Dacheng went to the mine today, Deng Guanshi immediately sent his men to send out this secret letter, and his subordinates quietly exchanged it."
Xiao An said lightly, but Nangong Yue could imagine quietly exchanging secret messages, which is not an easy task.
Nangong Yue carefully opened the letter, trying not to damage the outer envelope. When she took out the letter paper and unfolded it, she couldn't help her eyebrows. The letter paper was densely written, but it didn't use the text of Dayu, but it seemed to be a hundred. The more text!
"Xiao Ying, can you recognize it?"
She asked Bai Hui to return the stationery to Xiao Ying. Xiao Ying glanced at her, and his expressionless face showed a rare surprise on her face. Then she said: "Yes, the son, the subordinates recognized that this is Baiyue's text. "He said that, he repeated it again, and said, "...Your Highness Sixth, we are the loyal servants of the Highness, and under the Order of the Highness, we will stay at a mine in southern Xinjiang..."
The letter still did not mention what kind of mine it was, but only mentioned that this mine would be of great help to the resurrection of Prince Kui Lang of Baiyue.Now that Kui Lang is far away from the king capital, no one is in charge of the overall situation and can only ask the six princes for help. I hope the six princes can find a way to get 200 stone iron mines as soon as possible.There was also a token attached to the letter, which was a ferocious black wolf head, obviously used to prove identity.!
A few words left the atmosphere in the room abrupt, and the temperature suddenly dropped by several degrees!
She still remembers what Sun Xinyi said. At that time, a person with an accent of Baiyue appeared in Fang's house and colluded with someone in Fang's house to try to seize the mine of Sigele Mountain.
Obviously, that person was successful.
They succeeded in holding this mine in Sigele Mountain for more than ten years and quietly mining some kind of ore...
Even because Mount Sigular is in southern Xinjiang, they have used the Fang family as a sign to cover up their identity for more than a decade. Nowadays, no matter whether it is Cheng County or the people in this town, this mine is regarded as Fang's family.
At Kui Lang's age, things in those days should not be his mastermind, but now the mine is not in his hands.
Nangong Yue narrowed her eyes slightly, the gains of this trip exceeded her imagination.
Kui Lang is qualitative in Wangdu, and Mandarin Bai was able to come to Nanjiang only by the name of his restoration... Since this matter has already involved Baiyue and Kui Lang, if she does it by herself, once there is What is wrong, affecting Ai's layout, is not good.
If you want to come to this matter, you still have to tell Ai as soon as possible to decide how to deal with it.
It's just that Ayi should already be in Nanliang by now.
A sharp piercing chicken sound suddenly sounded from outside the window, interrupting Nangong Yue's thoughts, unconsciously, it was already dawn.
The roar of chickens was still there, and then a loud eagle whispered unwillingly, as if showing off its inviolable majesty as a king of poultry. In an instant, the roar of chickens outside stopped suddenly, including quietly in the room.
"Poof..."
Lily couldn't help covering her mouth and chuckled, even Nangong Yue and Bai Hui could not help but endure.
This little gray!
Nangong Yue pondered for a moment, and then commanded: "Lily, open the window and let Xiaohui come in. Bai Hui, pen and ink are waiting!"
After the two maids responded, Lily couldn't wait to open the window, and the little gray who had just been addicted was stopping on the branch outside the window, bowing his head and pecking the gray feather under his right wing.
Hearing the movement of the opening of the window, it seemed to be staring at Lily without blinking, and until Lily waved attentively to it, it barely flapped its wings, and the proud look seemed to say, Since Ru and other mortals so please me, let me give some face.
Little gray spread his wings and glide into the house through the window, and after a small half of the circle in the narrow room, he randomly stopped on a high foot case. At this time, Bai Hui sitting in front of the book case was writing a sick book. Nangong Yue's dictation was written vigorously until the pen was closed.
After drying the ink on the silk paper carefully, Bai Hui handed over the written silk paper to Nangong Yue for review.
After Nangong Yue nodded, Bai Hui folded the silk paper and put it in a small bamboo tube, and then knocked a small piece from the piece of ore that Xiao Ying brought in and put it in, and sealed it with wax.
Followed by, three burning eyes looked at Xiao Gray, and Xiao Xiao tilted his head in doubt.
Nangong Yue couldn't help laughing, and walked to Xiaohui's heel, and gently touched the grey feather on its neck.
Fortunately, Xiao Hui likes to go to Han Yu, where Han Yu is, where the Mandarin is.
This matter involves too much. In the overall situation, she may not be able to be considerate. In some aspects, she can’t think about it, or let it be measured by the official language...Ai also said before leaving, if there is something difficult, You can tell Guanyu Bai, who has a way to contact him.
The task of delivering the letter will be given to Xiaohui.
Lily smiled and fed Xiaohui with two pieces of dried meat, and said with fun: "Our family is really capable!" She doesn't think that sending an eagle is a big deal. This eagle delivery is much more comprehensive than a pigeon. I didn't see that Nanliang's pigeons had Xiaohui caught two!
Nangong Yue personally tied the small bamboo tube to Xiao Hui's eagle's claws, and then patted its eagle's head lightly, and said, "Xiao Hui, go find Han Yu."
Of course, Xiao Hui understands the names of herself and Han Yu. It rubbed on the palm of Nangong Yue, and then she flicked her wings twice and flew out of the window...
With just a few flutters, it flew higher and higher, further and further, and turned into a gray shadow in the dawn of the dawn...
Nangong Yue withdrew her gaze and turned her head again and said, "Xiao An, you will return this letter intact, and then help me pass a few words to Xiao Ying..."
Rising sun was faintly revealing a blush in the east sky, and gradually spreading around. The east sky was a deep red, bloody color. However, as the sky became bright, the red color was not so dazzling unconsciously. Now...
Dawn is coming, and all the darkness and sin buried in the dark past will be revealed!
For this town, this day is destined to be a calm day.
Before noon, I saw a ragged young man riding a brown horse madly rushing towards the direction of the government, and there were three tall and powerful men riding horses chasing after him. With a whip, he took a whip on the horse's abdomen and shouted angrily: "Stubborn boy, stop for Uncle Ben! How dare you be a fugitive slave?! Uncle Ben must kill you!"
The young man's horsemanship was obviously very rusty, and he was stumbling on the horse immediately, but he was blindly picking up the brown horse. The brown horse made an uneasy hiss, and the horseshoes ran and ran faster.
Stepping on...
Soon, the county government was a few feet away.
Xiao Ying narrowed his eyes, and Ce Ma rushed to the gate of the county government office, and the face of one of the guards who had changed the door changed, shouting: "Boldly daring people, even dare to go to the gate of the government office!"
"The Caomin are wrong!" Xiao Ying flipped over from the horse in embarrassment, and then stumbled forward, grabbing the mallet next to the Dengwen drum and thumping hard, and screaming in his mouth, "Caomin is wrong! Caomin wants to complain Sue the mine for indiscriminate killing!"
At the same time as the drum sounded, they also arrived, and they turned around and dismounted. The tiger tiger was almost as dark as a pan. He didn't expect him to walk in the rivers and lakes for many years. He turned the boat in the ditch and let the newcomer escape.
The rumbling drums attracted the attention of many passers-by, sparsely seen from all directions.
Master Tiger didn't care about wandering with those passers-by, grabbing the whip and stepping forward: "This is a fugitive from the Fangjia Mine and signed a death contract. Uncle Ben wants to take him away. Who dares to stop?"
Xiao Ying continued to strike Deng Wengu again, shouting: "Although the miners of the Caomin and the mines signed the deed of death, anyway, they are also life-saving. How can they be allowed to be so suspicious!"
The government was a little embarrassed. As a matter of fact, the tiger tigers arrested the fugitive slaves, and the government house could not control it, but all the fugitives fled to the gate of the government office, and they also sounded the Dengwen drum. You must go to court to hear the case.
The government hurriedly stopped the tiger, and someone hurried to report it.
The county magistrate of the county just returned from inspecting the flood control in the town. Only then did he learn from Wang Cheng's wife that the second son of the prince was in the town. Before he had time to visit, he got a pass, and couldn't help but face Wang Xiancheng.
Although he didn't want to offend the Fang family, everything was under his nose, and he could not avoid it!
The county magistrate gritted his teeth and said, "Trial! Trial!"
Amidst the shouting of the government, the gate of the government office opened wide, Chen Xianling sat down in the hall, and Xiao Ying was taken to the lobby as a mistress.
"Snapped--"
When the gavel was snapped, Tiger Tiger gave a sigh in his heart and hurriedly ordered his hand to go down to find Deng.This is not good!
Xiao Ying cried with tears and a snot in the hall and told the Fangjia mine to kill the miners indiscriminately. He also vowed to enumerate the countless "missing" miners and asked the adults to make decisions for these poor people: "Adults, Caomin, etc. It’s a deed of death, but according to the law of Dayu, the host family can’t kill the slaves at random! From time to time, some people are killed in this mine, and adults are asked to make decisions for the Caomin and those who died injustice!"
Chen Xianling looked awkward. As the county magistrate, of course he knew the law of Dayu. According to the law of Dayu, even if the slave-servant was guilty, his master would slain and punish him for a hundred sticks; if the slave-servant was killed for no reason, A fine of three thousand li was punished; if the slave-servant was killed by mistake, he would not be punished.
It's just that although the law stipulates this way, slavery is generally a crime of indifference.
However, if someone comes to sue, it must be checked!
The tiger outside the hall heard the corners of his mouth and eyes, and could not help but blurt out: "Stinky boy, what nonsense are you?!" He used to be arrogant and arrogant on weekdays.
"Snapped!"
The county magistrate once again slammed the gavel and said with a sharp voice: "Dare to blame the people, dare to shout in the public hall! Don't kneel down to the official!"
"Mighty!" The servants on both sides made a threatening voice. Tiger Tiger had to step into the lobby and knelt beside Xiao Ying. Xiao Ying laughed more than once in his heart. This task is really fun!
...
When Tiger's men hurried back to the Sigele Mountain mine, half an hour had passed.
After Deng Guanshi learned of the incident, his face was dripping with gloom, and he secretly complained that Lord Tiger had gone smoothly in the past two years, so that he was too careless to do things. He was so careless that he was run away and even went to the county. Ya!
This is better, I'm afraid it will be a big deal!
Deng Guanshi has been in this mine for many years, and it is naturally a ground snake, but the county magistrate has changed every three years. Now, this county magistrate has been in office for less than a year, and he has only had a few dealings with the other party. The way of being an official is very modest. On the weekdays, the wells on both sides do not violate the river water, but since someone has hit the Wendeng drum, I am afraid that they will still be in charge.
At least someone will be sent to verify it!
Thinking of this, Deng was in a deep heart. He first ordered his men to do some "preparation", and he hurriedly went to the town, but the place he was going to was not the county government, but the station!
Since the second son Xiao is eager for these iron ore mines, it is also time for him to give himself some help.
So, half of the time, Deng Guan was greeted by Zhou Dacheng in Nangong Yue's room. The matter that happened in the county government office was told to Nang Gongyue by the guard, and she knew why Deng was here, but she pretended. I don’t know. As soon as I met, I urged: "Governing Deng, you are anxious to see your son, is it to prepare the iron ore in advance?"
Deng Guanshi's face stiffened for a moment, and he could only bear with a smile and said: "Erson, how can the two hundred stone iron ore be so fast, but the small one will gather the iron ore as soon as possible..." said, he was embarrassed. Follow the trend, "Second son, this time when he is young, he has something to ask for..."
He told the matter of escaping slaves concisely and briefly, and then said: "Second son, you also know that our mine is surnamed "Fang", how can Fang's family kill the miners! It is hard to control the slaves! Hey... …" He sighed deliberately, "Although I am not afraid of the oblique shadow, but if this mansion is investigated, wouldn't it be that the mine hasn't been able to start construction for a while, the two son's two hundred stone iron mine..."
He stopped talking, and hoped that the younger brother could take the initiative to answer his own words and solve the big trouble of the official house for himself!
It's a pity that he was disappointed again. The second son, Xiao, was very casual in his words and deeds, but at the critical moment he became smart.
"Deng Guanshi," Nangong Yue looked at Deng Guanshi with a smile, and put away the paper fan in his hand. "You want to ask your son to do things for you, is that so?"
Deng Guanshi's face almost didn't stretch. Hasn't he already sent him a valuable box of Nanzhu?This second son Xiao is not satisfied yet?
But for the mine's secrets, for Baiyue... Deng Guanshi gritted his teeth, and cautiously tentatively said: "The two sons wanted to..."
Nangong Yue twitched her lips and looked at him with a sigh, shaking her head, seeming disappointed, saying: "Deng is in charge, now the soldiers of the South Xinjiang Army threw their heads in front of them and sprinkled their blood to protect their homeland and the country. As a people of South Xinjiang, you Why don't you know that you can contribute to the South Xinjiang Army?"
An effort... Deng Guanshi twitched the corner of his mouth and instantly understood.
The second son, Xiao, wanted to wear a white wolf, and took away his two hundred stone iron ore!
These iron ore are worth tens of thousands of silver worth of white flowers, this second ancestor must have wanted to give up the silver!
Deng Guanshi's heart is hurting, even if he can get help from His Royal Highness, so much iron ore, he has to pay for it in real money!Now not only have to go to Zhang Luo, but also have to give away these iron ore in vain!
Seeing Deng Guanshi's face green and white for a while, Lily had already endured a stomachache in his stomach. This trick of Princess Shizi was absolutely terrible. Ping Bai deceived two hundred stone iron mines from Baiyue's hands for the South Xinjiang Army!Marrying the prince of the world, the prince of the world is really a blessing in several lifetimes!
