Chapter 737: Lead the snake out of the hole or wait for the rabbit
Chapter 737
After Meng Tingwan escaped, the people in Princess Renyang's mansion searched the mountains and couldn't find him, indicating that there is still an unknown power in the Meng family, and this power has been connected to Meng Tingwan.
Meng Tingwan has accumulated enough strength and will definitely seek revenge from the Jiang family. Without getting rid of Meng Tingwan, Jiang Ling could not go to Suzhou with peace of mind. He looked down at the map of Gyeonggi covered by his palm. There were as many as 12 counties on the map. If Meng Ting got up late, trying to find him would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Therefore, we must lead the snake out of the hole...
"Brother, do you think we want to lead the snake out of the hole?" Jiang Liu raised his head to discuss with his brother, "I will go out of the city to take a walk around, sooner or later Meng Ting will get the news, as long as he dares to come, our people will definitely capture him. live."
Jiang Ling immediately shook his head, "I have already chosen the introduction, you don't need to take this risk."
"Who did brother choose?" Jiang Liu asked with bright eyes.
Looking at his little sister's cute little appearance, Jiang Ling's hands were itchy, and he twisted his palms before saying, "Shuxia."
"Huh? Shu Xia is still alive?" Jiang Liu asked in surprise. The last time she heard about Shu Xia, she and Meng Tingwan were in the Zhuangzi of Qin Tianye's house. Later, Meng Yajiao was killed by the Qin family, and Meng Tingwan was kidnapped by Princess Renyang's people. Jiang Liu didn't hear the news of Shuxia, and thought she was dead, but she was still alive.
Jiang Ling explained, "Meng Tingwan was kidnapped by Princess Renyang's people, Shuxia still stayed in Qinjiazhuang, became a concubine to the steward in the village, and gave birth to a baby boy in February this year."
"Brother, what do you mean...Shu Xia's child is Meng Tingwan's? That's impossible!" Meng Tingwan is only fifteen this year, so...becoming a father? Jiang Liu was shocked.
Jiang Ling was also a little embarrassed, turned his eyes and said, "The manager of the Qin family suspected that the child did not belong to him, but Shu Xia swore that it was, so the child is still being raised in the Qin family village. Meng Ting will definitely know the existence of the child, I think he should come back to see the child. We will send someone to guard the Qin Family Village, and we will definitely gain something. "
"elder brother."
"Um?"
"This trick is not called leading the snake out of the hole, it is called waiting for the rabbit."
Jiang Ling laughed, "Hmm."
Brother laughed, and Jiang Liu also became happy, "I still want to send someone to check on Siguniang Mountain."
"Okay." Jiang Ling didn't stop him, but only warned, "Let Chen Qingxia send a smart one, and be very careful, so as not to startle the snake."
The two were talking when they heard cheerful footsteps coming from the courtyard, and the little Taoist priest He Zhi ran in from outside, "Brother Ling, sister Liu'er, you are all back!"
Jiang Ling didn't say a word. For some reason that he couldn't explain, he felt awkward when he saw He Zhi now. Jiang Liu happily invited Hezhi to come and sit, and then ordered Shu Qiu to prepare tea and chat with him.
Seeing Hezhi and his sister chatting happily, Jiang Ling was about to rush Hezhi to the Taoist temple to recite sutras when Nanny Zhao ran over and asked Jiang to stay home, leaving only Jiang Ling and Hezhi in the house. Seeing Hezhi happily drinking mung bean paste, Jiang Ling suddenly asked, "Hezhi, do you want to return to the vulgarity?"
He Zhi was under great pressure, put down the cup and replied cautiously, "Brother Ling, actually...Xiaodao thinks that being a Taoist priest doesn't have to worry about eating or drinking, it's really...good."
Jiang Ling raised the corners of his mouth, "Well, then study Taoism well, and in the future, I will take on your master's mantle and become the master of Lingbao Temple."
Brother Ling didn't force him to read the Four Books and Five Classics? He Zhi was overjoyed, regained the confidence that was crushed by the others, and said with his chest out, "Brother Ling, don't worry, Xiaodao will definitely be able to inherit my master's mantle and be the master of the Lingbao Temple, because my master said that the disciples in the Lingbao Temple. My disciples and grandchildren are not as savvy as I am."
Jiang Ling nodded, spread out the ground scriptures that his sister had placed on the table, and pointed to the mountain road between Mu Zhong and Taikang, "Has your master ever been to the mountains and forests here?"
He Zhi thought for a while, then shook his head, "My master travels in Beijing and often visits masters who have attained Taoism. Xiaodao has never heard of my master saying that there are masters practicing Taoism in the mountains."
Jiang Ling nodded, "Go back and ask your master to see if there is anything unusual in the mountains. This matter is of great importance and should not be publicized."
"Xiaodao understands." He Zhi happily drank the mung bean paste, wiped his mouth and stood up and said, "If Brother Ling has no other orders, Xiaodao will go to Taotang to worship the Sanqing Patriarch?"
"Go."
"Brother Ling, do you have anything to do later?" He Zhi was relieved from the burden, "If not, let's call Sister Liu'er and go to Dayunjing Temple to play?"
Jiang Ling clenched his fists, "You and Liu'er have both grown up, men and women can't get along, so they can't go out to play together anymore."
He Zhi raised his hand and grabbed the Daoguan crown, and said confusedly, "Didn't Brother Ling say that Xiaodao is in the Daomen, so you don't have to stick to these customs?"
Jiang Ling…
Uncle Qiu, who had just walked to the door, looked at his young master's aggrieved appearance and couldn't help laughing. After Hezhi went to the Taoist temple in the backyard, Jiang Ling found that Uncle Qiu was still looking at him with a smile, which made him very uncomfortable. Jiang Ling coughed and said with a small brown face, "Ying Tianfu's water bandits are rampant, Ying Tianfu's Xiang army asked Yulin Guard to send troops to encircle and suppress the water bandits with them, I want to ask General Bai for an order to go with Erlang brother with the army. ."
Uncle Qiu was very happy that the young master did not miss any opportunity to practice, but, "The young master only knows the water, and it may be dangerous to go to suppress the water bandits. Young Master and Second Young Master."
Jiang Ling shook his head, "I don't need anyone to protect me, you can just send someone to protect Brother Erlang and secretly help him capture one or two water bandits."
"Yes." Uncle Qiu responded and went back to prepare.
In the study room in the outer courtyard, Jiang Muzheng looked at his younger brother who had turned black and had grown taller.
Jiang Erlang smiled, revealing his particularly white teeth, "Sister, the water bandits will always come ashore, I am ambushed on the shore and will not go into the water. Brother Ling said that this is a rare opportunity for meritorious service, as long as I can catch one or two water bandits. , you will be able to gain a firm foothold in Yulinwei."
Jiang Muzheng added a cup of mung bean soup to his younger brother, "How can water bandits be so easy to catch."
"It's really hard to catch the water bandits," Jiang Erlang straightened his waist and held up the teacup, drank the mung bean soup, and said calmly, "But if I don't go, I won't be able to catch it."
Jiang Muzheng was very happy that his younger brother could think so, "You have been in the camp for a few months, it's like a different person. Then you go, whether you can catch the water bandit or not is the second thing, you must come back safely and pay attention to it. Take care of some Ling brothers, don't let him just rush forward and fall into the enemy's trap."
With his ability, not to mention taking care of Jiang Ling, it is a fortune not to drag Jiang Ling down. Jiang Erlang said confidently, "Sister, Jiang Ling was born to be a general, and he will definitely become the youngest general of the forbidden army in Da Zhou!"
