Mu Ke added: "Actually, on the day of the second day of the second grade, my aunt and I wanted to come to your house to make trouble, but we encountered urgent work and had to go back to deal with it. No, I didn't have time to go to your house to sit and visit. Your parents."
Seeing him being so heart-to-heart, Zheng Quchi couldn't help but stiffen their feelings.
She pinched the string of the medicine bag and said with a warm smile: "Uncle Mu, it's okay. We will have many opportunities like this in the future."
Muke sighed with a smile: "Yes, there will be many opportunities in the future."
At this time, Zheng Quchi's heart moved, and a look of determination flashed through his clear eyes.
She took out the letter she had planned to write a long time ago from her arms: "...I want to trouble Uncle Mu with something. If you go to the camp tomorrow, can you give this letter to Brother Wei for me."
Zheng Quchi knew that Muke would go to the camp every now and then to do business. She was not sure whether she had been secretly monitored by someone, so she could only rely on Muke to make this trip.
Muke took it and looked at it for a moment. There was a thin piece of paper sandwiched between two pieces of thick blue paper. There was no red clay to seal it, and there was no opening words on the cover.
"You guys always ask me to transfer things to each other, but I seem to be so free?" Muke pretended to complain.
He thought it was a thank you for sending Wei Yao the Jiu Gu Jiu manual on his previous trip. She was too embarrassed to go there in person, so she asked herself to be a bridge builder so that she could put past the past and settle the past grudges.
Zheng Quchi's eyes flashed and curved like the moon, and he asked softly: "I'm sorry to trouble Uncle Mu. I have something else to do. Isn't this too busy? I brought some snacks made at home to Uncle Mu. You can bring some back to me." Let’s try it, auntie.”
"Okay, did your Uncle Mu say you won't agree?" When he saw Qu Chi bringing two small bundles of snacks, he didn't bother her and said with a smile, "You are interested. It just so happens that your aunt has not had a good appetite recently. , just in time to use some of these fresh snacks.”
"uncle."
Before Muke left, Zheng Quchi felt that he had neglected to explain something, so he stopped him again: "Then the letter..."
At this time, a panting craftsman ran from the side. He wiped the sweat from his head and said urgently: "Mr. Sang, the plaster joints in the newly repaired city wall of Chushan have become loose. For fear of delaying the progress of the fortification, Gong Luo and Fan I want you to come over quickly."
Zheng Quchi's expression changed slightly. This matter is not trivial. She responded: "Okay, I'll be there right away."
Seeing that she was busy with the fortifications, Mu Ke understood and said: "Ah Qing, don't worry, I won't forget what you told me. You go quickly."
"Okay, uncle, please walk slowly, I'll go first."
Muke nodded and waved his hand towards her.
"Okay, don't send me away, go quickly."
——
The issue of loose mortar joints has finally been thoroughly investigated. This is due to the sloppy and rough work of some craftsmen, and the cement mortar joints are not solid, resulting in loosening, falling off and other phenomena.
This kind of thing must not be tolerated. According to her request, even if the craftsmen add more processing, this part must be done again.
As for those who were perfunctory about the fortifications, she asked the work officers to pay them and then let them go home. However, the work officers felt that letting these craftsmen involved would be too easy and they needed to be punished separately.
I thought she, a member of the Mulberry trade union who always treated the craftsmen as compatriots, would object, but Zheng Quchi kept silent about this and left the punishment to the work officials to handle according to the rules.
The state has national laws, and families have family rules.
Everyone has to take responsibility for what they have done, whether it is her or anyone else, it is the same.
It was late at night before Zheng Quchi returned to her residence, rubbing her sore shoulders and neck. As soon as she opened the door...
Then he saw that he had been waiting in the room for a long time.
Her face turned dark immediately.
The spirit of injustice lingers.
As soon as they met, he pulled her into the room and closed the door.
Zheng Quchi subconsciously tensed up his body, threw away his hand, and immediately stayed away from him.
"Why are you here again?"
Seeing that she was avoiding him so much, he made a mistake.
But soon, he shook off these unnecessary unhappy emotions and asked directly: "Are you telling the truth? In ten days, oh, no, it has been one day, it is nine days later, Yu Wensheng will bring His personal troops left the camp?"
"That's what Wei Yao said, but I'm not sure." Zheng Quchi said lightly.
You pondered: "Indeed, in case there is a fraud, I will go and check the actual situation. If this is confirmed, then this will be a huge rescue opportunity."
"what ever."
Seeing her indifferent attitude, Ya narrowed his eyes and took a deep breath to suppress his rising anger: "Zheng Quchi, before you completely left the Mo family, you were still a member of our Mo family. Do you really think that you Can you turn your back on what’s going on outside the window and stay out of it?”
Zheng Quchi twitched the corners of his lips and laughed at himself: "Of course I know, that's why I will act as an internal agent for you and pass the news to you."
Otherwise, who cares about him.
If he hadn't saved Qiu but other Mo family members, she probably wouldn't have intervened in this matter, although she had begun to regret it now.
Seeing her indifferent attitude, you became angry. He said angrily: "It's good that you know. I won't regret what I promised you, but Zheng Quchi, you must help me rescue Qiu. If you If you betray me half-heartedly, you won't end up well."
You looked at her with a pair of cold eyes.
At first glance, it seemed to be just a warning, but Zheng Quchi, who had been very nervous recently, heard something else. She asked, "Do you want me to help you with anything else?"
You were quite satisfied with her intelligence and acumen. He said: "If the news you said is true, then I still need a complete map of the camp."
Zheng Quchi suddenly raised his eyes and frowned: "I have already told you about the specific location of Qiu's detention, why do you still need the entire Fu County resident camp map?"
Seeing the reluctance on her face, you knew that she would definitely refuse.
Therefore, he simply said something ugly beforehand: "You don't have to worry about what I want to do with this camp map, but if you refuse to agree to me, then you and I will have to break up. Not only will the Mo family be in trouble with you, but Yu Wensheng is afraid that he will no longer trust you."
Zheng Quchi looked at him with cold eyes.
She finally understood that he wanted her to stay with Yu Wensheng and others even if she was lucky enough to escape from the Mo family one day. He wanted to completely cut off her desire to take shelter under Yu Wensheng.
"Okay." She agreed calmly.
Yes, there is a way to have both in this world. She not only wants to get rid of the Mo family's entanglement unscathed, but also wants to gain the trust and blessing of Ye Guo Yu Wensheng. Perhaps if she hesitates in the end, she will lose both.
From beginning to end, she had only one choice.
After sending her away, Zheng Quchi couldn't sleep. She walked silently to the top of the mountain alone, looking at the forest shrouded in night. The deep darkness made people feel scared, and she was restless all night. .
After waiting for two days, Zheng Quchi finally saw Mu Ke. She hurriedly chased after him: "Uncle Mu, did you help me deliver the letter to Brother Wei?"
As soon as she opened her mouth, she asked about it directly.
Muke turned around and said happily: "Ah Qing?" Oh, if you believe it, you should have given it to him. "
Upon hearing this, Zheng Quchi lowered his eyebrows nervously and asked seriously: "Uncle Mu, what do you mean by should? Didn't you give him the letter?"
Seeing that she didn't look right, Muke suppressed the smile on his face and explained to her: "When I went there that day, he happened to be not in the camp and went out to do business. I waited all day and didn't see anyone. Since I have some important matters that I need to leave the camp to attend to, I can only hand the letter to the guard first, and when Wei Yao comes back, ask him to hand it to Wei Yao for me."
I see.
"But, he didn't come to see me." Zheng Quchi murmured.
Mu Ke hurriedly asked: "What is going on? Is there something important written in this letter? Otherwise, when Uncle Mu returns to the camp, he will make a special trip to ask Wei Yao for you if he has received the letter. ?”
Zheng Quchi was thinking.
If Wei Yao really received her letter, why didn't he come to see her? What if he wasn't waiting for her to go and confirm in person?
No, he should be able to understand her current situation and danger.
If he didn't receive the letter, what about her letter?
Zheng Quchi thought to no avail, so he continued to ask: "Uncle Mu, you just said to which guard did you give the letter to?"
"His name is Feng Qing, and he is the general guarding the North Camp Gate. Hey, Ah Qing, where are you going?"
Halfway through his words, Mu Ke saw Zheng Quchi turning around to leave. He chased her for a few steps, but he could only see her back running further and further away.
"I'll be back as soon as I go."
Zheng Quchi was anxious to confirm this matter, and she didn't care whether it would arouse your suspicion.
It would be fine if the letter got into the hands of Wei Yao, but if it fell into the hands of others and the contents were read... She started to run. Since she couldn't ride a horse, and Guixanling was not short of a long journey from Changtong Slope, she could only go to work first. The warehouse borrowed a cargo horse for emergency use. As long as it is hitched to a cart, it can carry people...
Although it is slower than riding a horse, it is still faster than walking.
——
Changxunpo Camp
Just two days ago in the evening, before leaving, Muke handed the letter to a guard: "Remember, as soon as Wei Konwei returns to camp, you will hand the letter to him, do you understand?"
"I see."
When Muke's front foot was gone, Feng Qing was stopped by a gentle and clear voice: "Feng Qing, what are you doing standing there? What is that in your hand?"
Feng Qing immediately turned around, only to see a woman with a face as white as snow and orchid walking towards her. As soon as he touched her stunning blue eyes, his cheeks turned slightly red and he had to lower his head to cover it up.
"Miss Gongshu, this is the letter that Muko asked me to give to Wei Konwei."
Gong Shulan's eyes flashed.
Muke?
It sounds like he is just a worker with a humble official position, but in fact she thinks his identity is unknown. He can even speak well in front of Yu Wensheng and the others.
He often came to the camp, and she occasionally saw him when she took a boring walk in the camp, but his attitude towards her was very indifferent and indifferent, and he often left without even talking to her for a few words.
Since he can enter the camp at any time, what should he say? He can't say it to Wei Yao face to face, but he also needs to write such a letter and hand it over to Wei Yao?
No matter what you think, there seems to be something wrong here.
Ever since Gong Shulan was warned by Yu Wensheng not to interfere in the research and development of the camp's craftsmen, she could only act like a marginalized person, establishing relationships with anyone who could speak to them, and acting as eyes and ears.
Her freedom is within a limited range, and the people she can contact are also within a limited range. If she wants to get closer to Yu Wensheng, she may start to get closer and understand him from the people around him. It is best to capture some of these people. It would be better if the sore feet and secrets are for her use.
She said gently to Qingfeng: "You seem to be very busy. If you still think about this matter when you patrol later, it will inevitably delay the matter. It just so happens that I also have something urgent to do and need to see Wei Konwei. Why don't I just write this letter? Can I hand it over to him for you?"
When Feng Qing heard this, he hesitated: "This... is not good."
"Feng Qing, don't you believe me? I just want to help you. You take care of me a lot on weekdays, but I have nothing to repay you. If you don't trust me to handle even such a small matter, If you can do it, then that’s it.”
Gong Shulan lowered his charming eyes and smiled in despair.
As he was about to leave, he unexpectedly heard Feng Qing's voice urging him to stay: "I, I don't, I just don't want to trouble Miss Gongshu."
She reflects the dusk glow, the light dances gracefully, and the gloomy twilight flows: "It's not troublesome, it's just a matter of convenience."
Feng Qing's heart beat wildly when she saw her stretching out a slender, white hand. Finally, she convinced herself and handed the letter over to her.
At this time, the patrol chief next to him said: "Feng Qing, come on, it's time to change the guard. We have to go to the back mountain to conduct an inspection before nightfall."
"Okay, I'll be here right away." Feng Qing clenched the hilt of the knife at his waist, waved, then turned around and said to Gongshu Lan: "Miss Gongshu, Wei Jinwei will probably return to camp around the end of Youshi, so the matter of delivering the letter will be please."
"good."
After handing the letter to Gong Shulan, Feng Qing joined the team, and a group of people went out of the north gate and entered the back mountain.
Gong Shulan, on the other hand, walked with the letter in his hand and looked at it carefully.
When she discovered that the envelope had no edge seal, she raised her eyebrows and smiled, then opened the envelope and took out the letter paper inside.
She spread out the letter and read it quickly.
——Brother Wei, the details are difficult to describe, but everything is summarized as follows. The Mohist killer wants to go to the camp to rescue people on the 17th, when General Yuwen leaves the camp to inspect the Youman border, and be on guard and cautious. Sang Xuanqing.
The content of the letter greatly exceeded Gong Shulan's expectations.
It turned out that this letter was not written by Muke, but Sang Xuanqing asked Muke to send it to the camp and give it to Wei Yao.
This mentioned the Mo family killer, and also explained that the Mo family knew that on the 17th, Yu Wensheng would be patrolling the border for a long time, and the Mo family would implement the rescue plan at that time.
She wondered why Sang Xuanqing knew such secrets?
Whether it was the Mo family's plan or Yuwen Sheng's departure from the camp and other confidential matters, it was not something that a small craftsman like her should know.
But now, not only does she know everything, but she also secretly asks Mu Ke to report to Wei Yao...
This thing is so weird and strange.
Gongshu Lan walked to a remote and uninhabited corner and twisted the jade bracelet on Hao Bai's wrist. He saw that the jade bracelet looked like an ordinary jewelry, but it could be split into two halves and was hollow inside.
