The Bandit’s Strategy

[Chapter 14 Who on earth do you want to help?] Naturally, it is Dao Zhao’s

"You want to put the baby?" Mu Qingshan was also a little curious when he heard the words.

The mansion opposite the government office was originally the General’s Mansion. Later, the old general was recruited by the imperial court to take care of the capital. The house was empty for 20 to 30 years. It looked quite big, but because it was left unattended for many years, it was ransacked by bandits and thieves. Second, in addition to the fact that many house rafters and pillars have been decayed and run down, it feels extremely gloomy and dilapidated. Even if there are no rumors of haunting, no one usually wants to live.

"Wake up?" Shang Yunze was standing at the gate of the compound, watching the craftsman remove the plaque.

"Yeah." Mu Qingshan said, "I heard Jiading said that the castle owner bought this general mansion?"

Shang Yunze nodded, "The craftsman will be there in three days. If everything goes well, the repair will be done in just over a month."

"But Tengyun Fort is in the boundless city. There was originally a house property." Mu Qingshan was puzzled. "Even the house there is unoccupied. Why does the castle owner want to buy a new one?"

"Because that house is too far away from the government office." Shang Yunze said, "It's not convenient to do things."

"So that's the case." Mu Qingshan praised, "If you know that the castle owner is so dedicated, you will be extremely moved."

Shang Yunze smiled very calmly.

"Can you go in and have a look?" Although Mu Qingshan had grown up in the boundless city since childhood, he had never entered the general's mansion.

"Naturally." Shang Yunze took him into the house. Since it has been cleaned once and the ground has been sprinkled with water, there is not much dust, but it is still very broken.

"This should be the original study room." Mu Qingshan raised his head enviously, "It's really big."

Shang Yunze tugged at his hair, "I will fix a bigger one for you."

"It's not necessary." Mu Qingshan continued to move forward, "I can't finish the book just for the adults, and besides, this house is the treasure of the castle owner... By the way, what kind of treasure is it?"

"Do you really want to know?" Shang Yunze looked at him deeply.

Naturally, I thought, curiosity is common to everyone, and Mu Qingshan has never seen any valuable treasure since he was a child. But he is a scholar, so naturally he would not force others to do things he didn't want to do. Seeing Shang Yunze didn't seem to want to say much, he shook his head, "I just asked casually, the castle lord is not to blame."

"No." Shang Yunze smiled, "Sooner or later, I will take you to see in person."

The two of them wandered around the house for a while, and then a servant came to look for it, saying that the adults were back and they needed to find the master and Shangbao master in urgent matter.

Shang Yunze was dissatisfied, "What's the urgent matter?" Just about to take someone to lunch.

"I'll take a look." Mu Qingshan hurried out.

Shang Yunze was dumbfounded, how could he leave without waiting?

The government officials couldn't tell the clues, but the disciples in the fort were very clear about the thoughts of their own fortress, and it was inevitable that there was a little more sympathy in their eyes—this master seemed a bit dull and not easy to turn.

"My lord." Mu Qingshan stepped into the study, "You are looking for me?"

"Sit down." Wen Liunian nodded and put down the teacup in his hand. "The Lord Shangbao bought the general mansion opposite?"

"Yes." Mu Qingshan said, "It is said that I want to release the baby."

Wen Liunian said, "This baby must be very valuable."

"That's natural." Shang Yunze leaned against the door and smiled, the meaning of his eyes was very obvious. Like Zhao Yue, he has never regarded Wen Liunian as a nerd. Since he is not a nerd, he should be clear about his purpose of buying a house-it is also good to have multiple helpers.

Wen Liunian said, "The fort master should keep the baby in prison, and don't let others take it away."

Shang Yunze glanced at Mu Qingshan, then smiled and asked, "What's the matter with my lord?"

"The official just now met someone at the market." Wen Liunian said, "Zhao Yue has gone down the mountain."

"Zhao Yue?" Mu Qingshan was surprised when he heard this, "In order to go to the ten-day appointment?"

"No." Wen Liunian burped, "It seems to be buying sweet-scented osmanthus cake and scallion pastry."

Mu Qingshan:...

Shang Yunze glanced at the oil paper bag on the desk, "Does it taste good?"

Wen Liunian said, "Not bad."

Mu Qingshan:...

"I want to invite the government office, but he refuses." Wen Liunian said with regret.

Just refuse to come. Mu Qingshan thought silently, was so angry last time, I won't come for me.

Wen Liunian continued, "Although I haven't talked a few words, I can guarantee one thing, he must know people from Mujiazhuang."

"That Miaojiang sect who refines Gu?" Mu Qingshan frowned.

Wen Liunian nodded, "When I mentioned Mu Wanlei, there were obviously mood swings in his eyes."

"If this is the case, then things can be chained together." Shang Yunze said, "80% is that Zhao Yue knows what secret of Mujiazhuang, Mu Wanlei wanted to kill people, so he offered to help suppress the bandits."

"Then why didn't Mu Jiazhuang act before?" Mu Qingshan was puzzled, "I have to wait until now."

"Because the previous officials in this vast city have never thought of really destroying the gang, let alone Tengyunbao to assist." Wen Liunian said, "In other words, according to the strength of Mujiazhuang, it should not be enough to restrain Zhao Yue. , That’s why he has been standing still. Now if Muwanlei hears the wind that the government has joined forces with Tengyunbao, and the sky-shaking artillery allocated by the court is on the way, he will naturally think that the probability of success has been greatly increased. It’s no surprise to come over to share a cup or take the opportunity to kill someone."

"The Boundless City is not close to Mujiazhuang in Miaojiang." Shang Yunze said, "The business route is not developed, and the news is not clear. According to normal conditions, Mu Wanlei shouldn't hear the wind so quickly."

"So I can only explain one thing." Wen Liunian touched his chin, "There is an eyeliner from Miao in this city, who has been staring at the Cangmang Mountain."

Mu Qingshan's back is a little numb-he has hated all kinds of caterpillars, spiders, grasshoppers and moths since he was young.

It's enough to think about it.

"It seems that between Mu Wanlei and Zhao Yue, there should be still accounts that have not been settled." Shang Yunze said, "Who do you want to help?"

Wen Liunian said, "Naturally it is Zhao Yue." There is no need to think about it at all.

Mu Qingshan also agreed with this choice. One Chengri was pale and raised poisonous insects at home. Although the other was called a bandit, he was very principled in doing things. Even when he saw an adult alone, he could resist not beating him. It was indeed not like that. He is a treacherous villain.

"My lord can repair the book and send it to the Shadow Palace." Shang Yunze said, "Palace Master Qin may know Mu Wanlei better than I do."

"It's not necessary to revise the book." Wen Liunian said, "It's quicker to ask in person."

"The chief of Qin Palace is coming?" Mu Qingshan and Shang Yunze asked in unison.

"No." Wen Liunian shook his head, "but Palace Master Qin sent his subordinates to come."

Shang Yunze's expression froze. What does it mean to "send a subordinate" to come?

"Master Shangbao is uncomfortable?" Mu Qingshan was concerned, his face turned pale.

Shang Yunze calmly said, "When will the people chasing the shadow palace come?"

"Just in these few days." Wen Liunian said, "I received a letter before, and I forgot to tell the castle owner if I was too busy."

How can such a thing be forgotten! Shang Yunze took a deep breath, then turned and walked out, "Suddenly I remembered that there is something to do with Tengyun Fort, so let's take a step forward."

"Fort Lord, go slowly." Wen Liunian said loudly, "I will go to Aunt Zhang's house in the west of the city with my master in the afternoon, so I won't give it away."

Shang Yunze paused suspiciously, "Who is Aunt Zhang?" Why should I emphasize it again?

Wen Liunian replied, "The matchmaker in the city."

Shang Yunze:...

Mu Qingshan seemed to be puzzled, "Why do you want to go to Aunt Zhang's house, but there is a new case?"

"Go and see if there is a good girl waiting to be married." Wen Liunian stroked the non-existent moustache-he learned this action from his husband, and felt it was very prestigious, and he has never changed it.

Mu Qingshan was surprised, "My lord wants to get married?"

Wen Liunian looked at Shang Yunze and said, "Not the official."

Lord Shang Bao took a deep breath and tried to make himself look like a spring breeze, "Leave the matter to others to deal with in the castle. I'd better stay in the mansion."

"Very good, very good." Wen Liunian pointed casually, "Tiger should get married, too. Let's see if there are any good girls."

The accused officer was flattered and hurriedly made a violent gesture!

One of my mother-in-laws has accumulated virtue, and after a long time, she was talking about herself.

It's really exciting to let an adult go to the matchmaker in person.

On Chaomu Cliff, Lu Chai was slightly surprised, "Mu Wanlei?"

"I knew it." Zhao Yue sneered, "He never gave up."

"What does the master plan to do?" Lu asked.

Zhao Yue put the wine glass on the table again.

"I have a suggestion." Lu Chai helped him pour the wine.

"What advice?" Zhao Yue asked.

Lu Zhui replied, "Joining hands with the government."

Zhao Yue frowned upon hearing this.

"This is the best way." Lu Chai said.

Zhao Yue remembered Wen Liunian's smiling face again.

"The big master will think about it again." Lu Zhui said, "It happens that the government and Tengyun Fort are both present this time. Perhaps we can also add the Shadow Palace in Shuzhong. The situation is actually beneficial to us."

"How can you be sure that the government will believe that we don't believe in Mujiazhuang?" Zhao Yue asked.

"This kind of thing can be thought of with a little brain. Moreover, Mu Jiazhuang has always been infamous in the arena, even if Prefect Wen doesn't know it, Lord Shangbao will remind it." Lu chased.

Zhao Yue nodded, raised his head and drank a glass of wine.
