Daming: From the end of Hongwu

Chapter 113 110 - Who's Behind? (seeking first order)
Near Beewei Alley, the home of the General Banner of the Patrol Battalion.

Zhen Wu found Qi Qige's body among the bodies of several people.

This woman is not ugly. If she hadn't been born in this turbulent era, or if she hadn't been born in Mongolia, she might have become a well-educated young lady.

But death makes no difference.

Zhen Wu looked at her, and thought that after seeing her dead, his heart would relax a lot, but he didn't expect that the development of the matter would make him even more uneasy.

If she didn't die, she would be uneasy, but if she died under someone's knife, Zhen Wu would be afraid.

Fan Guanghua, who came here again with Zhen Wu, said from the side: "Most of these people had puzzled faces before they died. I guess they didn't expect to be attacked and killed." At this point, Fan Guanghua waved Ask a sergeant nearby.

"Have you checked the situation of the general flag?"

The sergeant hurried over and said: "Now we have only found out some general information." As he spoke, the sergeant planned to report.

But Zhen Wu waved his hand and stopped him, he knew the general situation.

Zhen Wu said softly: "I know whose family this is, Zhao Jinhu. When my family was poor, my mother borrowed several hundred Wen from him. I still remember that I returned it to him."

Fan Guanghua was taken aback for a moment, but then he figured it out, Zhen Wu used to live here, and the two families are not too far away, so it is not surprising that they have known each other.

Zhen Wu walked around the scene again. After seeing no useful news, he found a step and sat down. After Fan Guanghua also sat down, he asked, "How long did it take you to catch up after you lost it?" Arrived here? How many people have died since arriving here?"

Fan Guanghua nodded, thought for a while and said, "About a quarter of an hour, maybe a little shorter, mainly because he was led astray by a few dead soldiers."

Zhen Wu nodded to express his understanding, and then began to ponder.

One quarter of an hour.

The four of Qiqige and the others could be killed in just a quarter of an hour. It must be said that there are not one or two people in ambush here, and the people in ambush can still escape after killing someone, so that no trace can be found. sharp.

Then Zhen Wu thought of Zhao Jinhu again.

Why did Qi Qige and others come here? Obviously, the people here can make them trust, so who is Zhao Jinhu?
Mongolian spy?

No.

If the Mongolian spy Qi Qige had no reason to die here, or if he was going to die, Zhao Jinhu would have to die here too, instead of disappearing, and Zhao Jinhu was just a small general banner, unable to do anything big, Qi Qige waited for someone to come over , Sooner or later they will be discovered, and their first goal must be to escape from the city.

Who is Zhao Jinhu?Or who?
who is it?In order not to get burned, he killed someone directly to silence him.

Who has such great energy, hiding it from Zhu Di's eyes, and making such a move behind his back, could he still have an enmity with Zhen Wu?

Zhen Wu immediately thought of Ni Liang.

But Zhen Wu shook his head again, Ni Liang obviously didn't have the energy.

"Don't think about it, His Highness will definitely find out about this matter, so you don't have to worry too much." Fan Guanghua persuaded at this time.

Afterwards, he looked at Zhen Wu again, and continued, "Look at you, you are still wearing armor, and the armor is still stained with blood. You probably haven't had a good breath when you came back from Gubeikou, so go back and rest. Your Highness should inform you of any news, and if I know anything, I will inform you as soon as possible."

Zhen Wu sighed, as if this was the only way to go, he didn't have much ability to detect information, which made him a little depressed.

After the two got up, they walked outside, Zhen Wu said to Fan Guanghua while walking, "Speaking of which, I have to thank you for this."

"Why are you being polite to me?"

"Okay, I'll give you a good gun some other day."

"Hey, there is an old apprentice who made you feel embarrassed, but speaking of it, that little girl in your family is quite courageous. At that time, a gun flew past my ear, so I almost didn't confess me to your family. .”

……

At this time, the sky was already bright.

When Zhen Wu returned home again, all the family members had gone to sleep because of the shock all night, including Zhang Wu and several wounded, but Zhen Wu couldn't sleep, and locked himself in a room in a daze after going to Jia.

I'm still a little scared, saying that this year, I can't trust anyone except myself.

I don't know how long it took.

Zhang Yuqing walked in, this ordinary woman brought some food and put it in front of Zhen Wu, she smiled at Zhen Wu and said: "My son, why blame yourself, you are still suffering from your own body."

Zhen Wu smiled bitterly, unable to eat anything, thought for a while, and said to Zhang Yuqing: "I want to buy a bigger house, or ask the people on the left, right and behind if they are willing to sell it. Come out from the front and rear or left and right courtyards, and invite some nursing homes to live in."

Zhang Yuqing smiled, without even thinking about it: "You are the one who decides, and mother listens to you, but is your current salary enough?"

Zhen Wu nodded and said, "I'll figure out a way for the money. You usually ask more about who is willing to sell the house."

Zhang Yuqing nodded, then picked up the chopsticks and handed them to Zhen Wu.

Zhen Wu didn't want Zhang Yuqing to worry, so he took a bite, but he still couldn't help asking: "Was mother afraid at the time? In fact, if it weren't for me, there would be no thieves at home."

"What nonsense are you talking about? You have provoked the enemy, and our family has provoked the enemy. How can we let go of it? Speaking of which, at the time, I was full of thoughts about protecting those little ones, so I didn't care about being afraid, but seeing Xiao Liu dared to hold the blunderbuss, but he panicked." At this point, Zhang Yuqing laughed: "You said that in the past, mother only watched Xiao Liu like to play and play, but I didn't expect Xiao Liu to be the calmest last night. It's in vain that she always pesters you and takes your temper."

Zhen Wu listened to Fan Guanghua's talk about what happened last night, and it was safe and sound. Then when he thought of Xiao Liu's red and swollen hands, he couldn't help but smile a little.

This stupid boy.

Zhang Yuqing also laughed: "Mother knows that mentioning Xiaoliu is useful, but you always say that you are not partial, why don't you just show a smile when you mention Xiaoliu."

Zhen Wu was taken aback for a moment, he really didn't realize this.

Zhang Yuqing spoke again: "After eating something, go to sleep for a while, and when you wake up, remember to go to your in-laws and let them know, don't let your in-laws worry, and that Cao Xiaoman, don't just rely on being an official." As it should be, they put in a lot of effort last night, by the way, those who rescued our family last night were all the guards of the palace?"

Zhen Wu nodded.

"Then remember to take the time to invite them to your house for dinner. Mother will cook some food and thank them."

"Understood." Zhen Wu was a little speechless, if he still used Zhang Yuqing to remind these trivial matters, then he had lived for so many years for nothing, and he understood the ways of the world, otherwise he would not have accumulated so many friends in the army.

But Zhang Yuqing was still rambling on, and after a while she said in the wrong direction, and even talked about her childhood. Zhen Wu sighed inwardly while talking with Zhang Yuqing.

He could tell that his mother said she was not afraid or not, but in her heart she guessed that she was also afraid, and now only by talking with Zhen Wu can reduce this emotion.
