Fortunately, Mrs. Yang took over and said, "Master Nie, are you asking about etiquette?"
Ding Maosheng touched Zhao Xuejing next to him with his arm, and then said: "Xueli has gone to see Mr. Zheng Yi off."
Mrs. Yang nodded.
Nie Shuang continued: "What about Mr. Song and Miss Zhao?"
Did you really ask about Sister Luo? Ding Maosheng glanced at Zhao Xuejing. Zhao Xuejing was a little confused. What did Ding Maosheng mean by signaling to him again and again?
Mrs. Yang has already spoken: "Mr. Song and Sister Luo are guests at Qin Tongpan's house."
Nie Shuang said: "The general judge of Min County?"
Mrs. Yang nodded, her eyes falling on Nie Shuang's face: "Master Nie is here for Master Zhao Jingyun, right?"
Nie Shuang was a little stunned and almost blurted out: "What?"
But considering that he couldn't clearly explain the purpose of his visit this time, he could only nod his head indiscriminately.
"That's right," Old Mrs. Yang said, "We came to Min County also for Mr. Zhao. Speaking of which, if Mr. Nie hadn't written that letter, we wouldn't have known that Mr. Zhao was the newly appointed magistrate of the county, so we wouldn't have
This is what happened now."
Nie Shuang was confused, what happened to Zhao Jingyun? Something must have happened to these sixteen families, and they must be related to him.
Nie Shuang said nothing, and Mrs. Yang continued: "Did you also hear that Mr. Zhao is missing? That's why you came here?"
Nie Shuang had been catching deserters, and was later called away by Huaiguang. He was basically on the road these days. How could he know this?
Old Mrs. Yang's words surprised him more and more.
This time Nie Shuang couldn't help but said: "I was going to find Zhao Jingyun, but I don't know that he is missing. Where did you get the news?"
The room was quiet again.
Everyone looked at each other, and they were all a little confused about what was going on. At least it was different from what they thought now. Nie Shuang did not come here because of Zhao Jingyun's affairs.
Then why did Nie Shuang come here?
Nie Shuang couldn't figure it out for a moment: "Wait a minute, are you here because of Zhao Jingyun? Didn't Zhao Jingyun just take office?"
After Nie Shuang finished speaking, he explained: "After I captured the deserters and brought them back to life, I submitted a document to the court and asked to come to Taozhou to serve. That's why I traveled here day and night. I met Ding Maosheng on the street, so I asked
As for your whereabouts, I haven’t arrived in Taozhou yet, so I don’t know the situation there at the moment.”
Only then did Mrs. Yang and others realize that they had met by chance.
But Ding Maosheng was still a little suspicious. Is it really a coincidence? Master Nie was obviously very happy to see him, and he was eager to ask questions.
Several people were talking when they heard Luo Zhenniang's voice coming from outside: "Sister Luo is back."
Ding Maosheng looked over and saw Nie Shuang looking out the door.
Song Taiye wanted to discuss Sui Ji's affairs with Qin Gao in detail, so he drove Zhao Luoyang back. Zhao Luoyang knew what Song Taiye meant. Qin Gao could not trust others now. The fewer people there were, the more Qin Gao was willing to tell Song Taiye "
Tell the truth”.
"Luoyang," Luo Zhenniang took her daughter's hand, "Master Nie is here."
The Master Nie they knew was Nie Shuang. Zhao Luoyang was slightly surprised. She never expected that Nie Shuang would come over.
Zhao Luoyang and Shi Jiu said: "If Nie Shuang sides with Zhao Jingyun, we will have a better chance of winning."
Shi Jiu couldn't tell Zhao Luoyang, he had arranged all this.
"Nie Shuang knows Zhao Jingyun," Shi Jiu said, "I should be able to talk to him about Zhao Jingyun."
Zhao Luoyang said: "I think so too. Even though Prince Yu is gone, these old relatives should have some friendship. Judging from Lord Nie's dealings with bandits, Lord Nie is a good official."
Shi Jiu agreed with this. After all, people like Nie Shuang had followed him. Regardless of whether he was present or not, they could at least handle matters fairly.
While Zhao Luoyang was thinking about it, he had already opened the door and walked into the house.
Nie Shuang's eyes fell on the Zhao girl's face again, but this time she was a little more probing. The Zhao girl's... appearance... well, it was hard to tell whether she was good or bad. After all, she had been sleeping in the open for so long, and she looked dusty.
Not too fair, but her facial features are pretty good.
However, he had never heard that the prince was concerned about any female family members, and he had no way of guessing how the prince and the Zhao family knew each other.
To scrutinize is to scrutinize, and you cannot look at it for too long. Nie Shuang was subconsciously alert and naturally withdrew his gaze.
After being mentioned by Lord Huaiguang, the Zhao family girl was no longer the same girl in his mind as before.
Zhao Luoyang stepped forward and saluted: "Master Nie."
Nie Shuang subconsciously wanted to stand up, but he restrained himself. He nodded and said, "Miss Zhao."
Now that Zhao Luoyang is back, some things can be explained more clearly.
Mrs. Yang repeated what Nie Shuang had said before: "It's a coincidence that Mr. Nie happens to be serving in Taozhou. But Mr. Nie doesn't know about Mr. Zhao yet."
Nie Shuang nodded: "You said something happened to Zhao Jingyun? Can you tell me more about it? Zhao Jingyun came to serve as a parent officer. If something happens to him..."
Nie Shuang frowned, could it really be related to Sun Ji?
Zhao Luoyang said: "The news we heard on the road, did Mr. Nie see any civilians being taken away by officers and soldiers when he came over? We were almost regarded as escaped civilians. If Zhang Dianli hadn't been there, we might have been."
Enter the military household."
Zhao Luoyang did not tell the truth and did not reveal what happened to Ding Rong. He only said that Zhang Dianli went to look for the separated families. Mr. Song brought them here because he wanted to find out about Mr. Zhao Jingyun through Qin Tongpan.
, because Nie Shuang said that Zhao Jingyun is a good official and can be trusted.
Nie Shuang listened carefully, and felt more and more that this matter was not trivial. All he had to do was ask someone to find out whether Zhao Jingyun was missing. The Wuwei Army was in decline, but there were still some officials who would ask the prince for his past kindness.
information.
"This matter is beyond your control." Nie Shuang finally knew why Huaiguang asked him to come to protect the Zhao girl. These people are really in trouble. "The person in charge of Taozhou right now is Sun Ji, and Sun Ji is the magistrate of Taozhou."
, you can mobilize troops and horses, if something really happened to Zhao Jingyun, it is probably related to him."
"If Sun Ji were to know that you were inquiring about Zhao Jingyun, I'm afraid he would take action against you. Qin Tong's decision to let you live in Didian probably had an impure purpose. If he had sided with Zhao Jingyun, he would have handed over the memorial a long time ago, and he would have
If someone interferes in this matter, Sun Ji will not be allowed to do this."
Zhao Luoyang nodded.
Nie Shuang thought for a while: "You leave as soon as possible and go to Taozhou. You are relocating the people, and going to Taozhou will not attract attention. I will try to find someone to resettle you first. After this matter is over, I will go to Taozhou again."
Register."
"Don't talk about what you said today to anyone, lest you get burned."
Nie Shuang stood up and said, "Bring Mr. Song back. When Qin Tong asked about it, he said...Zhang Dianli sent news that the lost people have been found, so you can continue on your way. I will make arrangements for the rest."
.Remember, as long as Sun Ji is still in office and there is no news about Zhao Jingyun, you should not mention this matter to others and just pretend you know nothing."
Nie Shuang looked solemn, not doubting her words at all, and had no intention of testing her further. Zhao Luoyang said to Shi Jiu in his mind: "It seems that Lord Nie is trustworthy."
Whether you are sincere or fake, you can tell with just a few tries.
Shi Jiu said "hmm" to show his approval.
Seeing that Nie Shuang was about to go out to inquire about the news, Zhao Luoyang stopped him: "Master Nie, actually I didn't tell the truth."
Nie Shuang froze and looked at Zhao Luoyang.
The girl from the Zhao family smiled apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, this matter is not trivial and we cannot tell it easily. Now it seems that Mr. Nie is sincerely doing our best."
Nie Shuang was frozen there, so he was deceived just now without knowing it?
Zhao Luoyang said: "Actually, we met Mr. Zhao's young man. Zhang Dianli was not looking for any lost people. Instead, he took Mr. Zhao's letter of help to Xingyuan Mansion to move reinforcements. We stayed here.
, and he was not deceived by Qin Tongpan, but actually planned to use Master Qin’s hand to deal with Sun Ji."
What?
Now Nie Shuang was completely confused.
What have these people done? Which of the Zhao girl's words is true? Wasn't he here to help? Why was he so coaxed into confusion?
Master Huaiguang asked him to protect the Zhao family girl, but at this moment, why did he feel that the Zhao family girl did not need to be protected at all?
No, the Zhao family girl needs protection.
Such a bold girl, if she has enough skills, can poke a hole in the sky.
