Da Wei Chun

Chapter 402 Fire falls from the sky
The recorder joins the army with a slight glance, seeing that Li Chengzhi's hands are empty, it should be that he hasn't brought out the backup book yet...

"The register is in the yamen, so I'll go get it now..."

"No, I want to go in and have a look!"

Yuan Wei pointed at Li Chengzhi again: "If there is no explanation for today's matter, I will never end with you... If you dare to leave, I will dare to lead people to chase you to your house..."

go?
Even if I beat my grandfather to death, I won't leave... Such a good opportunity, if I miss it, I will be struck by lightning!
How overjoyed Li Chengzhi was.With a straight face, he replied in a cold voice: "It's just right, I also want to ask: It's just a normal official business relationship, how can it become a false accusation of the superior?"

The two were furious, and heard a movement again, and looked back, Changsun Gong was also chasing after him.Xu Shi was scolded, and his face seemed to have been wiped with pot ashes, not ordinary black.

Although Yuan Wei had never seen that booklet, Changsun Gong, as the recruiter Wei Sima, was in charge of food, weapons, tents, and even salary, so how could he not have looked through that booklet?
Why didn't he see that "the surname of Yu was changed to Wang" and "the one who practiced 'shi' became the 'soil'"?
It must be Li Chengzhi, the thief, who did something wrong and tried to frame him...

The three of them stared at each other, and followed the recorder to join the army and entered the household Cao.

The booklet was still on the case.Joining the army picked it up and handed it to Changsun Gong: "This is just a preparation book, and I am about to hand it over to Li Huben..."

Changsun Gong turned a few pages and saw that there were no mistakes. He looked at Li Chengzhi coldly: "What about the original book?"

"The booklet is so big, and I can't carry it with me all the time, so it's in the official tent!"

"Go and get it... No, I personally follow you to get it..."

Li Chengzhi was overjoyed when he heard that: I'm afraid you don't want it?

Afraid of revealing his flaws, he didn't even dare to say more, just let out a cold snort, and went straight out of Hucao.

Changsun Gong put away the books and followed closely with Yuan Wei.

Seeing Li Chengzhi's lack of expression, Yuan Wei rolled his eyes and asked in a low voice: "Could it be that... someone... moved his hands and feet..."

What he wanted to say was "Eldest Sun Sima", but seeing that the expression on Chang Sun Gong's face was not right, he changed his words...

"Move a bird feather?"

The eldest grandson was so angry that he wanted to stab someone with a knife, "In addition to the Zhongya, there is another book in the palace. How stupid is this official to mess with it?"

"Is that what this dog thief did?"

Yuan Wei said suspiciously, "Maybe I want to use this to make some articles..."

"Nine out of ten!"

Staring at Li Chengzhi's back, Changsun Gong was full of suspicion, "Otherwise, how dare this thief tell the whole city, dare to say something like 'but if there is a breach of duty, everyone will be fired'?"

"Then find the register as soon as possible, and check it carefully..."

The two followed Li Chengzhi into Jinyong Yicheng.

Because of its high position and strong city, since the Jin Dynasty, Jinyong City has become the place where troops were stationed in all dynasties.For example, Zhao Liucong's attack on Jin Dynasty and Liu Yu's northern expedition all stationed troops here.

When Yuan Hong moved his capital, he temporarily stayed in Jinyong City because the palace city had not been repaired.

Since then, Jinyong City has been divided into two, and the place near the imperial palace is called Luoyang Small City, also known as Jia City.It is exclusively for the emperor's office and the residence of the concubines in the harem.The place near Mang Mountain is called Yicheng, where Habayashi and Huben temporarily reside.

After the palace city was repaired, the emperor, his subordinates, and the provinces of Zhongshu moved to the palace, and Jiacheng has also become a garrison.

Although soldiers were stationed in City B, the useless corners gradually fell into disrepair.Just like the camp Changsun Gong pointed out to Li Chengzhi, due to the low terrain and the proximity to valley water, stagnant water accumulates from time to time.

Others are okay, there are many mosquitoes and thieves.When it is almost dark, but when people and animals pass by, mosquitoes and flies will roll up into a ball, just like black clouds that can scream...

How could it be possible to set up camp in such a place?
It can be seen how much Changsun Gong put in to embarrass Li Chengzhi!
Only when Li Chengzhi said "in the account" is a joke.After entering the camp, Yuan Wei and Changsun Gong were a little confused.

More than a dozen soldiers covered their mouths and noses with cloth, and were setting fire to the wilderness, cutting trees and shoveling grass.Although there are mosquitoes, but only a few fly over from time to time.

The surrounding area was full of smoke, which was very pungent.Grandson Gong has been in military affairs for a long time, and he can tell that sulfur powder and cedar incense, which are specially designed to repel mosquitoes, are burned in the smoke.

It should have been working for two days in a row, and a large area has been cleared in the middle.There are more than ten horses tied, and two felt tents are erected.

Li Chengzhi really set up an account?

Yuan Wei's face darkened, and he reprimanded in a cold voice: "Presumptuous... This is a forbidden place for the palace, who allowed you to shovel the grass and cut down the trees? You even started a fire. If there is a catastrophe, what if it burns to the palace? "

Li Chengzhi slapped both hands, and laughed: "I don't know that there is such a distance in Jinyong City? Just right, I also think that this place is really not suitable for garrisoning troops. Since there is such a ban, then I will go to ask Zhonglang later. , let him give me another place to camp..."

Changsun Gong gave Yuan Wei a hard look: Are you free, I'm afraid Li Chengzhi is too relaxed?

He stretched out his hand again: "Don't gossip, quickly bring that booklet!"

Li Chengzhi snorted, and winked at Li Liang again: "What are you doing in a daze, why don't you bring the original book?"

Li Liang was really stunned, looking at Li Chengzhi in disbelief.

When he went out in the morning, Li Chengzhi was still having a headache, saying that although the mechanism was done well, it was not difficult to start, but the difficulty was how to minimize accidents.He also said that it would be great if he could plant the spoils on Changsun Gong and Wei Wei.

Who would have thought that after Lang Jun went out for a stroll, he would actually lure these two people into a trap?
Li Liang couldn't figure out how Li Chengzhi did it.He hurriedly responded, and glanced at Li Chengzhi's right hand behind his back.

Holding up a pair of scissors, it means to ask him to bring both of them...

After a little effort, Li Liang got out of the felt tent, carefully holding two booklets, and walked over step by step.It's like holding two jade cups, afraid of falling to the ground and breaking them.

Yuan Wei was still sneering, thinking that he really was a barbarian who had never seen the world...

Just as he was sneering, he suddenly heard Li Chengzhi yell angrily: "Idiot, idiot, I only told you to get the original book, why did you also take out the backup book from the palace..."

Cursing in his mouth, he made a gesture and reached out to grab it.

Preparations in the palace?

Changsun Gongtu's cleverness rushed to Li Liang in a "swish", even faster than Li Chengzhi, and snatched the two booklets with his hands.

If it was just a suspicion just now, Chang Sun Gong has already confirmed six or seven points at this time: If Li Chengzhi didn't want to play tricks, why did he find both the original book and the backup book?
Guessing in my heart, I opened it and took a look: the one with the palace seal is naturally correct.And when I opened the other book, is it true that as far as Li Chengzhi is concerned, the person who was originally called "Yuan Shi" became "Yuan Tu"?
Chang Sun Gong gritted his teeth with hatred.

He dared to swear that before this book was handed over to Li Chengzhi, it was still in good condition...

Good thief...

With a dark face, Li Chengzhi asked in a cold voice: "Eldest Sun Sima, this book was obtained from the palace by the official, how can I let you take it away? If it is lost or dirty, how will you ask the official to explain it?"

"It's just a joke... It's the preparation book in the palace, and it's also the book of my recruiting trip to Huben. As a Sima, why can't I read it?"

Changsun Gong held back his anger, pointed at Li Chengzhi and reprimanded, "Since you claim that the original book is wrong, I will naturally have to argue it out. Even if it is lost, I will bear it all by myself, and you are so noisy..."

As he spoke, he stuffed the two books into his bosom, and shouted at Yuan Wei: "Follow me back to the Yamen, and find out which thief did the tricks, and dared to frame you and me... let's go!"

Seeing Changsun Gong being so casual, not to mention Li Liang, even Li Chengzhi was horrified: In the original book, there is a mechanism hidden, otherwise why is Li Liang so careful?
Seeing that the two got on the horse and roared away with their attendants, Li Liang couldn't stop his scalp from getting numb: "They won't die, right?"

How can Li Chengzhi be sure?

He rolled his eyes, pointed at the felt tent and said, "Quick, pack your things, let's go..."

Li Liang subconsciously asked, "Where are you going?"

"Where else can I go? From my perspective, there is a high probability that there will be a big commotion. If these two are unlucky, they may be burned to death on the spot.

Although there is no proof, but as long as he is not so stupid, Yuan Yuan will definitely suspect your husband.What if you try to beat me into a trick? "

Li Chengzhi scolded while untying his horse, "I'll hide in the palace for a while, even if the incident happens, I can ask the emperor to uphold justice... You should return to the mansion immediately and thank the guests behind closed doors, as long as it is not for Luoyang Ling, Henan Yin, Sizhou Mu, or people from the Ministry of War and other four departments hold arrest documents to arrest you, so don't open the door. If someone uses force, feel free to call grandpa..."

"Your servant!" Li Liang responded respectfully, urging Li Rui and others to close the tent.

……

"Are you going to enter the palace at this time?"

Yuan Yuan looked at the sky, and said suspiciously, "Chang Shi also said just now that you took away the backup book, and you will definitely find out the truth today, so why are you rushing to enter the palace again?"

Li Chengzhi was full of grievances: "As soon as the lower official arrived at Hucao, the elder grandson Sima and Yuan Lang snatched the backup book before he got it. Not only that, but also the original book and the lower official's request from the palace. The backup books were also taken away, saying that they want to investigate to find out the truth?"

Li Chengzhi is going to come to the palace to prepare books?
Yuan Yuan only felt that his thoughts were confused, but it was hard to come to a conclusion for a while.

The two swore and swore that they had never done anything wrong.Li Chengzhi looked like he was being framed and was really wronged.Yuan Yuan didn't know which one was telling the truth and which one was false?
From the looks of it, Li Chengzhi should have rushed to the palace to sue.

Just sue, I guess I will be scolded again...

Yuan Yuan waved his sleeves indifferently: "It's going to be..."

Li Chengzhi was overjoyed.

He was afraid that Yuan Yuan would find an excuse not to let him go...

After a hasty obeisance, Li Chengzhi walked away.

……

"How dare you dare to alter the military register?"

Changsun Gong gritted his teeth and cursed as he entered the yamen hall where the guards were recruited, he didn't know whether he was extremely angry or excited, his voice seemed to have changed shape.

Yuan Wei's heart skipped a beat: "Did Li Chengzhi really change it?"

"if not?"

Chang Sun Gong sneered and said, "Before handing over the booklet to Li Chengzhi, a certain person took a look at it, wanting to see who the clan's children are, and who can be moved by Li Chengzhi. There was no mistake at that time. Li Chengzhi changed a lot after that, who else could it be if he didn't paint it?
Don't you think that this official is blind and can't even tell the difference between 'Yu' and 'Wang', 'Shi' and 'Tu'? "

"Really brave?"

After cursing, Yuan Wei asked again, "Since he dares to do it, Li Chengzhi must be somewhat sure. What if he refuses to admit it?"

"How can it be that easy?"

Chang Sun Gong said with a sneer, "The geese leave their tracks, and the mice leave their marks? No matter how careful he is, how dare he not leave any traces?"

Seeing that Chang Sun Gong put three books on the table and opened them one by one, Yuan Wei sniffled subconsciously: "Why does it smell like stone sulfur?"

"It's because Li Chengzhi smoked smoke in the tent to repel insects... Forgot that you and I entered the camp of thieves, how pungent the smoke was? Even the choking horses couldn't stand up..."

Explaining in his mouth, Changsun Gong felt that the light was a little dark, and ordered his subordinates: "Give me the lamp..."

Yuan Wei was a little worried: "Should I call a few knife and pen officials who have been there for many years?"

"No need!" Changsun Gong shook his head resolutely, "A certain secretary started his career, and he has seen all kinds of tigers, and there is no one who is more proficient than me..."

In the middle of speaking, Changsun Gong suddenly exclaimed, "Haha, it is really newly painted? Look at the word 'soil', the bottom stroke is clearly redrawn later. The texture of the handwriting of the book..."

Probably because he was afraid that Yuan Wei would not be able to see clearly, Changsun Gong held up the booklet, and brought the first page closer to the lamp: "It's even clearer if you look at it with the light, do you see it?"

Really?

Yuan Wei was overjoyed, and just about to say a compliment, his eyes suddenly lit up.

No, it should be a sudden pain...

Even though it was more than a foot away from the lamp flame, the album suddenly caught fire.The fire not only started suddenly, but also extremely fast.As if seeing a ghost, there was a light "chi" sound, and a burst of flame burst out, hitting Yuan Wei's head and face.

"Ah... my eyes..."

Yuan Wei let out a miserable cry, and took advantage of the situation to step back.When he tripped over the futon under his feet, he raised his head and fell backwards.

Changsun Gong was slightly better, no eye injury, but burnt beard.

He was taken aback, and immediately dropped the booklet, slapping his beard with his hands.He was still yelling urgently: "Hurry up and get water..."

The booklet fell onto the table, and with a bang, a ball of fire burst out of thin air and went straight to the beam of the house.

The two backup volumes on the table were instantly ignited, as if pouring oil on fire, and in the blink of an eye, the entire case set was on fire.

How can I get water?
Although the ya hall is surrounded by stone walls, the roof is made of wooden beams and rafters.It is covered with straw mats made of reed poles, and then the outer layer is pasted with mud and tiles.

I don't know how many years it took, but the reed stalk was so dry that it couldn't dry any more. When it was scorched by the flames, it caught fire immediately.

The scalps of a few assistant officials waiting on the side were numb from fright, and they dragged Changsun Gong and Yuan Wei and ran away.

"It's flooded... Hurry up and put out the fire..."

The voice was so shrill that Yuan Yuan, who was in the courtyard next door, jumped up in shock.

When he ran out of the yamen hall, he saw billowing black smoke from the recruiter Wei yamen separated by a wall, with tongues of flame coming out from the roof from time to time, obviously it was too late to save him.

Yuan Yuan's face darkened, and he shouted loudly: "Go and see, has anyone ever been trapped?"

Just now a subordinate official responded, and heard Yuan Wei's scolding: "Li Chengzhi, how dare you murder me? Grandpa and you swear against each other..."

Li Chengzhi set the fire?
How is it possible?
He left Jinyong City two quarters ago and went to the palace to seek His Majesty's complaint. What does this fire have to do with him?
Suspicious, Yuan Yuan pointed to his subordinates: "Hurry up and send people to put out the fire, and if there are injuries, send them to the doctor as soon as possible... Well, find two people who know the truth, and I want to ask: It's so good, why did it suddenly catch fire?" ?”
