【One hundred and eighty-nine times】Going around and counting
Shao Yan turned his eyes and pondered for a moment: "I heard that he was impulsively provoked by Deng Yueyu, the chief general of the third battalion of Changming Army, and almost made a big mistake before being demoted. But... what does this have to do with Zhou Qi's plan?"
Shao Qian carefully moved the bricks lifted from the roof, supported half of his body to carefully investigate the surrounding environment, and then whispered: "You can understand the things in the north after all. Li Jian and Deng Yueyu have since turned against each other and faced each other tit-for-tat. Logically speaking, they should be incompatible with water and fire. But guess what I saw today?"
The girl turned her head and looked at him and asked, "What did you see?"
The Langjun did not answer immediately, but got up from the eaves and pulled her forward a few steps, jumping to the long roof of the corridor connected to the banquet hall. He hooked the beams and pillars of the house with his feet and spread his arms towards her. Shao Yan moved forward a few steps, hugged his slender waist, and then buried his face in his chest, waiting for him to take him down from the roof of the corridor with him.
After a while of climbing and jumping, the husband landed safely on the ground with the girl in his arms. After confirming that there was no one around, he answered: "I saw Li Jian join Deng Yueyu in the Protectorate's Mansion today. The two have a harmonious relationship, as if they have no grudges."
Shao Yan looked at him with his little head tilted and exclaimed: "It's strange. Shouldn't they fight when they meet?"
Lang Jun nodded and replied, "That's why I feel strange."
Shao Yan questioned: "But... this cannot be seen... what plans does Zhou Qi have next?"
The husband gently rubbed her hair bun and said softly: "Indeed, there is nothing to see with this alone. But after listening to what Zhou Qi persuaded Deng Qing, I understood. Li Jian was resentful to Deng Yueyu, but he was willing to follow him to the Protectorate's House to attend the banquet. Zhou Qi joined him.
However, with his current status in Yu Changming's army, if Zhou Qi did not come to him, he would not be able to meet him, which would leave him in a passive state.
However, in Changming's army, Qian Hui from the first battalion and Zhao Fu from the second battalion are all our people. If Zhou Qi wants to use Li Jian to achieve his goals, he will definitely keep him away from the first battalion and the second battalion. In this way, the only person Li Jian can choose is Deng Yueyu. Therefore, in order to meet Zhou Qi and take the initiative, he can only plead with Deng Yueyu and ask him to take him to the Protectorate."
The autumn was cold, and Shao Yan felt a little cold. He pulled the Langjun's robe, climbed his slender and beautiful neck with both hands, rubbed it into his arms, and shivered, "You made such a reason just because you saw Li Jian in the afternoon. Isn't it too hasty?"
The husband felt the little lady's squeak, and with a wave of her long sleeves, he completely wrapped her in her clothes to keep her warm.
"So, just infer, I have no evidence." He said gently in her ear.
Shao Yan frowned and murmured: "Then... are you going to find evidence to confirm your guess next?"
The husband nodded softly, hugging the warm and fragrant soft jade in his arms, as gentle as water, walking quietly in the grass and woods.
The two of them have been away for too long. If they don't go back soon, the guards will be suspicious.
Especially him, he had disappeared in front of the two guards who were monitoring him in the evening. If they found out that something was abnormal, it would be difficult to explain at that time.
He sent Shao Yan to the shade of the tree in front of the bridge of the Xiaolou Pavilion, and wanted to put her down and leave.
Unexpectedly, Shao Yan hugged him dependently and refused to let go. He patted her helplessly and reminded him: "You should go back. It would be bad if the guards discovered it."
But the girl rubbed her arms again and pouted and said dissatisfiedly: "I'll separate again so soon."
The husband raised his gentle smile and said with a doting heart: "Be good, when tomorrow, Qian Hui will be able to transport military supplies into the Protectorate's Mansion. In two days, when everything is settled, we will be able to go out of the Protectorate's Mansion and be together every day."
Shao Yan ignored his comfort and explanation, and still hugged him and refused to let go.
After being addicted for a moment, a low and pleasant laughter came from her ears, and the husband said lightly and happily: "Why are you still holding me?"
The girl hung on him like a kitten, unable to stick to it, and muttered, "I just want to hug you for a while."
Shao Qian was helpless and could only let her hold it. He leaned against the tree trunk, held the girl's waist with one hand, breathing the faint fragrance between her neck, staying in the dark shade of the tree and enjoying this moment of peace and beauty.
After a while, Shao Yan finally jumped off him, and kissed him reluctantly on his cheek, "Okay, go. I'll wait for you to do everything and go out together from here."
The dry autumn wind gently blew the handsome man and beautiful woman's cheeks. The husband looked at the girl's sincere face with a heart-warming look, curled the corner of his mouth and nodded slightly, then turned around and left with great strides.
The girl watched him leave and inexplicably felt a sense of melancholy.
Shao Qian rushed in the dark and returned to the passenger compartment on the southwest side. There were guards everywhere, and the prevention and control was even tighter than before. But Shao Qian remembered their time when they changed their guards. While the guards were free, they climbed to the roof of their wing room. Just as they were about to lift the tiles from the eaves and jumped in, they heard a commotion in front of the screen wall of the southwest courtyard gate.
Shao Qian heard Dong Daofu's voice in the noise.
His cold voice sounded: "Is Shao Langjun in the wing room or not, is there any abnormalities on the southwest side?"
The two guards in charge of guarding Shao Qian hurriedly stepped forward and replied: "Don't worry, Lord Dong, we have been watching. Shao Xiaolangjun has been in his own room since he came back just now."
After the guard's voice fell, a burst of rapid footsteps came from the yard.
Shao Qian was shocked, and the sound of flipping through the tiles was uncontrollable, making a sound on the roof.
Dong Daofu was just admitted to the hospital for examination, but suddenly heard the noise and immediately looked at the room where Shao Qian lived, with sharp and vicious eyes.
At the critical moment, Shao Qian jumped into the room. Dong Daofu did not see him on the roof.
He tightened his heart and immediately put on his hat and lay on the couch to pretend to fall asleep.
Dong Daofu walked over, stopped in front of the door of the room, and glanced around.
After a while, he turned around and walked to the two guards and asked coldly: "I heard from the guards that you two were not good at guarding this evening, so you lost Shao Xiaolangjun and you? You even let him join the Lefang Opera Troupe invited by the general...?"
The two guards trembled all over and hesitated and replied: "That's the case..."
Dong Daofu wrapped his arms around his chest, staring at them coldly, and his tone was fierce: "You two are very skilled, how could you not even be able to see a person without martial arts?"
The guard's scalp was numb, sweating faintly behind him, and he said in fear with his head hanging down, "Mr. Dong, please forgive me. Shao Xiaolangjun deliberately walked into the crowd, but he turned around and disappeared... My subordinates didn't know why he let him escape."
Dong Daofu kept scanning their faces, and the cold light in his eyes was like a blade, pricking the two of them coldly.
The guard hid back tremblingly, not daring to anger the young man in front of him.
Dong Daofu paced back and forth in front of Shao Qian's wing room thoughtfully, and said loudly: "I really didn't expect that the weak Shao Langjun can not only observe the formation, but also easily shake you two away. This made me look at him with admiration."
In the wing room, Shao Qian slept in the corner, closing his eyes and pretending to sleep soundly, ignoring the person.
Dong Daofu stared at the room in front of him with the lights turned off. After a moment of silence, he turned around and lowered his voice to the two dejected guards and said deliberately: "Today, the spy sent to Jiangnan to investigate has replied. The identity of the Shaw brother and sister is not simple. If you two lose the person, wait for the general to die."
The two guards fell to the ground in fear, kowtowed hard, trying to suppress their fear, and whispered: "The subordinates and others will definitely follow the orders of the general and Lord Dong, strictly guard this person, and there will be no more trouble."
Dong Daofu glanced at the silent room behind him, turned around and strode away.
Shao Qian was right beside the door and window, hearing him and the guards clearly, but he was not panicked.
He and Shao Yan both changed their appearance, and Deng Qing's spy would never find anything in the Central Plains. Dong Daofu was cheating him, probably hoping that he would show his strength.
This person is more guarded against him than Deng Qing.
I'm afraid that Dong Daofu will still be able to get his goods to the warehouse tomorrow, causing some trouble.
Shao Qian held up and put one hand on his knees casually. He used to touch the ring on his thumb, but he touched it again.
His eyes were slightly stunned and a little helpless. After so many years of habits, it was not easy to change.
After a brief loss of mind, Shao Qian immediately pulled his thoughts back and continued to think about what Dong Daofu said just now.
Today, he didn't see Dong Daofu, and didn't know where he went. This matter has always made Shao Qian care very much. Could it be that this person got some news that was unfavorable to him, so he came to his room to inspect and investigate tonight?
Shao Qian felt a sense of uneasiness in his heart, and he always felt that something big would happen that caught him off guard.
He leaned flat on the wooden pillow, with his eyes open, and was completely sleepy.
Today, there are too many things that he can't figure out. He has something hidden in his heart and cannot calm down, and he always feels irritable.
The mystery of his life experience. Why did he have such a dream of foresight? What plans does Zhou Qi have? All kinds of questions surround him and make him unable to sleep. Just like the dark clouds slowly surging by the sky, it blocked the thick moonlight, covering everything in the clouds and mist, making people unable to see the truth clearly.
