Reborn girl from poor family

Chapter 95 Just the right time (1)

The blue sky and the white sun have just gone, and the bright lanterns have just begun to shine. Cao Kaihe is admiring the Seventh Aunt.

The aunt was delicate and fragrant with golden lotus. Cao Kaihe pricked her calf several times with his beard. Immediately, a burst of fragrant branches trembled. She lightly kicked Cao Kaihe's shoulder with her lotus foot and said softly: "Uncle. , stabbed the slave’s family..."

Cao Kaihe chuckled, turned over and lay down on the couch, feeling very comfortable and happy all over.

Although Xu Ming was heartbroken at the loss, fortunately, he usually had a lot of diners in reserve, and now someone has taken over. It was just a few more people to divide the work. Besides, when the new person took office, he was working hard, so it didn't look good for a while.

The manpower outside was also very capable, and they implemented his trick of substituting things very well. They got out the several cavalry soldiers who were being detained in time. Without witnesses, the case of hunting down Shen Huai was also cleared. No more worries.

Especially the move of Zazao Game is even more wonderfully planned, killing three birds with one stone. Let’s see how Qiu Naicheng can hold on!

Cao Kaihe felt proud, but he still reminded himself: be careful when sailing the ten-thousand-year boat. When he thought of this, he patted Qi Yiniang and said, "Don't have any contact with your brother these days, and don't make it public even in the house."

"Uncle, don't worry, I know the importance." Qi Yiniang exhaled like a blue breath, wiped the sweat from Cao Kaihe, and then stayed in his arms, gently squeezing his shoulders every now and then.

Lai Guojin managed the Zazao Bureau effectively, Xiao Qi was sensible and charming, Cao Kaihe was open-minded and felt comfortable being pinched, and he started snoring loudly without realizing it.

When he opened his eyes again, the night was already dark. After resting, the Commander-in-Chief drank two more glasses of wine and was preparing to fight again. There were rapid footsteps in the courtyard, and then there was a careful knock on the door.

At this moment... Cao Kaihe's heart sank, he put on his pants, turned over and sat in front of the bed, and called in with a deep voice.

The personal entourage led someone through the door. After the person came in, he knelt on the ground and said, "Uncle! Miss is in danger!"

Cao Kaihe took a closer look and saw that this person was still the personal guard he assigned to Cao Qingyuan. What was Qingyuan doing?

"speak!"

After the guard finished speaking, Cao Kaihe stood up, grabbed an incense basket beside the bed and threw it at the guard, "How dare you hide such a big thing from me!"

Yes, fishing Cao Qingyuan was "successfully" trapped.

Xu Yuan hid in the dark, silently taunting Cao Kaihe: What kind of waste are you raising? He was just following two people. If he hadn't quietly helped, even the one who went back to report to Cao Kaihe wouldn't have been able to escape!

Fortunately, he had been secretly looking forward to it for two days.

Xu Yuan looked at the current mansion. The door was closed, and there was no plaque hanging on the door. If it weren't for the two vague-looking stone lions at the door, it would be just like an ordinary mansion, without any personality.

But this is where those people put Cao Qingyuan and her bodyguard in their pockets and carried them away after they knocked them down.

Xu Yuan took a brief look at the house, and after confirming that it would take some time for Cao Kaihe to reach here, he turned back and quietly disappeared into the night.

"Eunuch?"

In the study room, Shen Huai stopped writing and finally focused his attention here.

"Yes, a group of eunuchs, about ten or twenty of them, all dressed in regular clothes, and it looks like their kung fu is not weak."

"People from Dongchang?"

"It's not like that." Xu Yuan also observed this matter carefully, "It's not that disciplined, but it seems to be the guarding style of an expatriate."

As a powerful secret service agency all over the world, Dongchang is directly assigned by the emperor to "investigate conspirators, evil spirits, evildoers, etc.". It works with Jinyiwei on the left and right, supervising and restricting each other. The scope of the investigation covers all nine states, and they are all deep in the palace. The ears, eyes and arms of the Supreme Being.

However, Dongchang and the short-lived Xichang are not the only eunuchs who can travel outside Beijing for a long time. There is actually another category that is more comfortable than them - guard eunuchs.

This was originally a surveillance set up by the emperor specifically for the border officers who had the power of the army. The superiors were suspicious and did not trust their lives and property to their ministers, so they stationed troops in dangerous places on all sides, except for the chief military officer and the governor.

In addition to the history, there is also a guard eunuch, which is called the "three halls". Whenever military power is directed, these three halls must restrain each other.

Speaking of which, the first eunuch guarding eunuchs in the mainland was in Huai'an: long before the governor's office of water transport was established in Huai'an, the chief military officer of water transport was still in charge of water transport. At that time, the imperial court sent three internal officials to Huai'an to assist the then general water transport officer.

The soldiers were sent to Pingjiang to guard the area. After that, guarding eunuchs appeared one after another in various places.

The current guarding eunuch in Huai'an is named Li Zheng, and he has always kept a low profile and never acted evil. If those eunuchs were really his subordinates, then they kept silent, but they persisted in treating Liu Sandian for two or three years. Why on earth?

Could it be that someone in the palace was poisoned?

But, what kind of poison can survive these years without dying?

"I don't have time to check that house. I don't know if it has anything to do with Li Zheng." Xu Yuan frowned. "I originally thought that the person who kidnapped Liu Sandian was just a powerful person in the capital, or was trying to flatter the powerful person in the capital, but I didn't expect it.

It's a group of eunuchs, we're in trouble now."

Xu Yuan found it difficult, but Shen Huai chuckled——

Interestingly, Cao Kaihe wanted to seize the power of Cao Governor and had just laid out a killing spree. He hadn't even closed the net yet, but he had to start a fight with the guarding eunuch.

He actually started to wait and see.

"Go and watch carefully. The first thing is to hide yourself. You can also make trouble if you take the time. It would be better if the two sides can fight directly."

Shen Huai thought of the proud look on Su Ya's face when she heard the news, and a smile spread across her lips.

Xu Yuan couldn't bear to look directly at him and withdrew expressionlessly.

Shen Huai resisted the urge to show off to Su Ya and focused his attention on the pen and paper in front of him. These old foxes did not put much effort into serving the people of the court, but they did everything they could to fight for power, fame and fortune. In fact,

They are a group of dressed-up beasts, how can they be worthy of the people of this area, how can they bear the black gauze hat on their heads!

Since it's the right time, let them see how much trouble this soft persimmon like me can stir up for them!

Gao Jun came in close to the corner, and was so frightened by the look in his master's eyes that he said, "It's over, which family is going to be unlucky? I don't know if I can help them die a death worthy of their overtime and dedicated work?"

"Sir," Gao Jun stood aside and waited until Shen Huai finished writing the letter in his hand. He covered it with fire paint and wax as usual and took it into his hand. Then he asked carefully, "Are you done?"

"Say." Shen Huai opened another file without raising his head.

"A matter with the governor, or a matter with Su Ya, which one should I talk about first?" Gao Jun said in a suspicious tone.

Shen Huai glanced at Gao Jun lightly, "What do you think?"

A certain attendant who was shaking off his wits but fell to the ground looked stern and said honestly: "I just walked around the city and went to Caodu..."

"What's wrong with Su Ya?"

"Huh?" Gao Jun was stunned and immediately reacted, "It's Mrs. Su. She mentioned to Mr. Liu today that she should tell Su Ya to stay away from you when the matter here is over."

Hearing this, Shen Huai's fingers that turned the page paused for a moment, "Why?"

"Mrs. Su said that there are differences between men and women, and their status is very different. If you don't join a rich family, you won't be a concubine, so you can't compete with Gao Jun." Gao Jun felt that he had been influenced by everything all day long, and his talent was improving day by day. He summarized it very elegantly and accurately, and couldn't help but feel proud and excited. Looking at Shen Huai sympathetically, "Sir, I'm on guard against you."

His slender fingers began to turn the pages of the book again, and Shen Huai's voice was as steady and calm as ever, "Where's the Governor?"

"Captain Qiu Naicheng just came back," Gao Jun added: "Quietly."
