Chapter 61: Sorting Out (The Third Is Asking For A Monthly Pass)

Chapter 61 Carding

Su Luofeng, one of the lieutenant generals of the Northern Expedition Army. Although he is not a direct descendant of the general, he has followed the general to fight the enemy bravely over the years, and has long since become a brother who lives and dies with them.

Shao Liang still can’t figure out why that day, Su Luofeng took the token representing the identity of the general and deceived him back, so as to lead the team escorting the general’s wife to another way, and then let the Northern Qi people who had already been in ambush take the general. The lady was kidnapped.

“He’s treasonous!” Shao Liang raised his hand and slapped himself, not daring to look into Shao Mingyuan’s eyes, “General, I’m a bastard, if I hadn’t been fooled, Madam wouldn’t—”

Others only saw the general’s victory over Fenghou, but only those closest to them could see the general’s pain.

The general    actually hopes that the war will end and that he and the general’s wife will live an ordinary life?

He will never forget that whenever the war slows down, the general will sit down and write home letters, stroke by stroke, accompanied by the icicles hanging from the eaves in the north and the endless white snow outside the window.

It is a pity that a letter from the family was sent, and the general never received a reply.

The general’s wife must have resentment against the general in her heart.

So when he suddenly received news that the general’s wife had already traveled north and was about to arrive, he took the initiative to invite Ying to meet her.

He wanted to speak a lot for the general in front of his wife, and hoped that his wife would forgive the general for not being able to return after two years of marriage.

may eventually—

Shao Liang knelt down slowly, his voice hoarse: “General, it’s all my fault—”

Shao Mingyuan bent down to help him up, and after a while, he said, “It’s not your fault. There is no reason to be a thief for a thousand days without preventing a thief for a thousand days. Su Luofeng has been the same for many years, but he has a counterfeit token on his body. Long.”

Shao Mingyuan closed his eyes, and the scene of meeting with Su Luofeng flashed in his mind.

In the snow, Su Luofeng walked the injured him all night and finally returned to the camp safely; during the fight, Su Luofeng jumped up and blocked the deadly attack for his comrades; by the bonfire, Su Luofeng was gentle with his eyes, reading his family letter by the firelight…

Shao Mingyuan suddenly opened his eyes.

“Shao Liang, you go to Beiding City tomorrow to continue the investigation. Just check the brothel and painting boat in Beiding City. There may be a girl Su Luofeng is familiar with.”

“General?” Shao Liang was quite surprised.

Shao Mingyuan couldn’t hide the tiredness between his brows, but his eyes were sharp. His voice was hoarse, and he explained to Shao Liang: “I once saw Su Luofeng reading a letter. At that time, he said it was a letter from home. Since he is an orphan, how can he come? Letter from home? Nine times out of ten, that letter was sent by a good woman, or even—”

Shao Mingyuan paused for a while, then continued: “It may even be the guise of a brothel woman to deliver some news.”

Up to now, Shao Mingyuan still does not believe that it is as simple as Su Luofeng collaborating with the enemy.

Su Luofeng has been fighting under him for several years, so he should know his character very well.

In that case, apart from personally shooting his wife, on the one hand, he would not let the threat of the Northern Qi army affect the morale of the Daliang army, and on the other hand, he would not let his wife suffer humiliation and tragic death, so he had no other choice at all.

So it is worth pondering that Su Luofeng has been dormant for many years just for this.

Shao Mingyuan strode to the table.

There is a sketch on the table.

“Come and see.”

Shao Zhi and Shao Liang surrounded the past.

Shao Mingyuan pointed at the blueprint: “Shao Liang, you asked Su Luofeng to trick him into returning to the camp just before the team reached this mountain cross. When it came to the ambush, those Northern Qi people had a clear purpose, they kidnapped… After they kidnapped their wife, they quickly retreated. Except for Su Luofeng and the soldiers he brought with him, there were some casualties, and everyone else was fine.”

Shao Zhi and Shao Liang nodded frequently.

Hearing that Shao Mingyuan’s voice was hoarse, Shao Liang poured a cup of tea and handed it to him: “General, let’s have a cup of tea first.”

Shao Mingyuan took the tea and drank it. He put the teacup aside and pointed to a place on the map: “But the scouts sent later found out that there is also an ambush of the Tartars here, the only way for the team to pass.”

“Could it be the Tartars trying to make sure nothing goes wrong?” Shao Liang asked.

“I had the same thought at first, but then I felt that it was not quite right. The scouts deduced from the marks in the ambush that the number of Tartars was far less than the number of soldiers you brought. It’s not enough to be afraid of this group of Tartars.”

At that time, he received a letter that his mother took pity on Qiao and sent her to Northland to meet him. What was even more unexpected was that when the letter was received, Mr. Qiao was about to arrive. At that time, it was the most critical time of the battle between the two armies. For the safety of Mr. Qiao, he sent his most trusted subordinate Shao Liang to greet him, and even let him. The **** who took away hundreds of people did not expect Su Luofeng’s mutiny.

“What do you think is the biggest possibility of this situation?”

Shao Liang and Shao Zhi looked at each other.

“I thought about it for a long time, and felt that there is a possibility that there are two groups of Tartars, that is, the one who tipped them off is not the same group, and the Tartarians who got the news are not the same leader!”

The Northern Qi Tartars also have many factions, and it is very possible that they do not know each other in order to obtain merit.

“What? Is there anyone else besides Su Luofeng?”

Shao Mingyuan’s expression was condensed, and his eyes were bright: “Only in this way can we explain why the number of Tartars in the ambush on the original route was not as many as the guards brought by Shao Liang. Because another group of reporters misestimated the number of guards. At first, I didn’t expect that I would send so many people to pick up Mr. Qiao! I didn’t even… I didn’t expect that I would send someone to pick it up!”

The timing of Mr. Qiao’s arrival in the Northland was too delicate. It was the time when the two armies were going all out and almost no troops were available.

“There are Hou’s mansion guards, some Yulin Army and Yuanwei escorts who accompany Madam out of Beijing to the north. Shao Zhi, you quietly search for those people and ask to see what happened after Su Luofeng took over the team.”

Shao Zhi’s heart sank.

General    means that in addition to Su Luofeng, there is another group that is likely to come from…

Shao Mingyuan raised his hand, rubbed the corners of his brows lightly, and showed a faint tired smile: “You two should go to investigate separately. Before the truth is found out, you don’t have to speculate.”

Although the suspicion in his heart had grown wildly and entangled his heart, he still wanted to get a clear answer.

“Yes.” Shao Zhi and Shao Liang clasped their fists together.

Shao Mingyuan leaned back on the chair and closed his eyes for a moment, then opened his eyes to see Shao Zhi and Shao Liang still standing in front of him, looking like he was hesitating to speak, and asked, “What else?”

Shao Zhi gave Shao Liang a wink.

Shao Liang shook his head, motioning him to speak.

Shao Mingyuan frowned lightly: “Back in Beijing, how did the two of you learn from your mother-in-law? Feel free to talk about anything.”

His hands were stained with countless blood, and even the blood of his wife was stained in the end. What else could he not bear?

Shao Zhi was pushed out, he took a deep breath, and finally said, “General, you probably don’t know that the fire in Jiafeng Qiao’s house only escaped Master Qiao and the younger sister—”

A soft sound came, and Shao Mingyuan directly broke the armrest of the chair.
