Back Off, Let Me Come

Chapter 377 377: Enemies meet [two-in-one]

Shen Tang showed an undisguised murderous intent towards Jiang Sheng, and the faint smile on his lips disappeared in his response.

This man cannot be kept!

He had murderous intentions in his heart but did not take action immediately.

Shen Tang also has his own concerns.

For someone like Jiang Sheng, who had the courage to come to see him and reveal that she was carrying the national seal, there was no way he would not be fully prepared. If he rushes to kill people, he is afraid that he will fail to silence him and instead let the tiger return to the mountain, causing endless harm.

All kinds of thoughts ran through my mind quickly.

She shook her head and smiled self-deprecatingly: "Are you admitting it wrong? What a huge treasure the national seal is? All the princes in the world have chased this thing, and the bloody storm caused by it is unforgettable. What virtue and ability can I have? It How could it be in my hands?"

Does this person have real evidence? Or was it just empty talk, just suspicion, to deceive her?

Unless there is irrefutable proof, it cannot be admitted easily.

Shen Tang's concerns are not unreasonable.

But she didn't expect that Jiang Sheng was not lying.

Jiang Sheng said: "I can look at Qi."

The implication is that there is no need to hide it anymore.

Shen Tang: "..."

Wang, Wangqi? ? ?

Shen Tang's inner expression was numb.

Could this world be any more outrageous?

Shen Tang asked tentatively: "The way of a scribe?"

Jiang Sheng: "Yes. There are great generals, small generals, going, coming, and defeat... Naturally, the qi of the person who owns the national seal is also different from that of others."

Shen Tang suddenly thought of something, and his thoughts went to nowhere. His eyes were meaningful and he said: "I know a friend. His way of writing is the 'Eight-Day Gua'. He is a divination expert. It's a pity that you two can't get to know each other..."

The friends Shen Tang talks about are naturally not herself, but Zhai Xiaofang's cousins—Zhai Huan and Zhai Yuewen—who she met last year.

She also learned about this guy's skills as a scribe by accident. At that time, I thought it was a good fortune-telling material on the street.

One is divination, the other is fortune-telling.

If these two people formed a team to tell fortunes on the street, they would be like living gods, with full professional skills, no one in the industry could beat them.

Complaints are complaints, but it is also really tricky.

Jiang Sheng's existence reminded Shen Tang.

The next time I meet a literary scholar of the same style as Jiang Sheng, I don’t even know how to lose my vest—the national seal, what a temptation. Not to mention enemies, allies cannot resist its charm.

Jiang Sheng didn't show much interest in the friend Shen Tang mentioned, but just waited quietly for Shen Tang's choice——

He wanted to see what Mr. Shen would choose? Choose a capable person or a potential hazard?

Do you choose to use it or choose to kill it?

Shen Tang was anxious inside.

To be honest, she didn't really want to use Jiang Sheng.

But let her kill——

Who knows if the Jiang Sheng in front of me is the real person? If he is as "nothing" as Yan'an, he will have many powerful enemies in vain.

After thinking about it for a while, Shen Tang asked a question that she cared about very much: "Xian Deng, I have something to ask you."

This change of title caught Jiang Sheng off guard.

"Jun Shen, please ask."

Shen Tang was very serious: "You——Master Fei?"

She is very short-staffed now.

Use one you find.

As long as the business ability is adequate and the character is not too bad, it can be used. If his character is really bad, the worst he can do is exploit his talents without giving him real trust, and then burn bridges when the problem is over. The cunning rabbit dies and the lackey is cooked.

After weighing it up, Shen Tang decided to give it a try.

She used this person first to appease Jiang Sheng.

Everyone is on the same boat, and the grasshopper on the same rope cannot stab himself in the back at this time.

"You mean, is it dangerous to be your lord?"

Jiang Sheng: "..."

He thought of everything.

But I didn't expect Shen Tang to ask this.

When promoting talents, shouldn't we touch on the other person's talents, character, background, etc.? Shen Tang's question went too far, so Jiang Sheng had to prepare on the spot. Literary scholars are most subtle and euphemistic in their words and deeds, and he did not answer Shen Tang's questions directly.

"The king does not doubt his ministers, and the ministers do not disappoint him."

Shen Tang: "..."

If it weren't for the wrong occasion, she would have applauded the other person - he answered, but it seemed like he didn't answer, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt that there was a big pitfall in this answer.

The premise of "the minister will not disappoint the emperor" is that "the emperor will not doubt the minister", that is to say, "if the emperor doubts the minister", "the minister will disappoint", which is comparable to Qi Yuanliang's "Killing the Lord". But you can't say there's anything wrong with him, because it was "Jun" who let him down first.

Shen Tang was not satisfied with the answer.

But the side confirms that this guy is not a master.

This was a surprise to her.

Shen Tang said: "I will live up to you, so you can rest assured."

After going through the basic process of recruiting talents in his mind, Shen Tang felt that he wanted to make a gesture, so he stood up with a smile on his face, held Jiang Sheng's hand, and nodded in agreement. As for how sincere these words were, she knew it herself.

Jiang Sheng felt the slender but powerful hands, his expression froze slightly, and his smile was forced.

When Shen Tang let go, his fingerprints were clearly visible.

She said awkwardly: "I couldn't control it for a moment."

Jiang Sheng secretly loosened his fingers and happily changed his title: "Lord, it doesn't matter."

It is indeed a natural power!

This strength is no less than that of those brave warriors.

He removed the disguised word spirit and restored his true self.

Shen Tang looked at it and was dumbfounded.

Jiang Sheng seemed to guess what surprised her.

Question: "Master, why are you looking at Sheng like this?"

"This...is you yourself?"

Jiang Sheng said: "Yes."

When Shen Tang heard this, he almost spit out a mouthful of old blood.

But what you say is like water being thrown out, and it is difficult to collect the water. You can't accept people with your front foot, and then turn your back and kill others. On the bright side, if I bring back a capable internal affairs expert, I can help Wuhui and the others share the burden.

Shen Tang comforted himself in this way.

She is most worried about another thing now, and wants to hear Jiang Sheng's opinion: "If there are other literary scholars with similar abilities to you in this world, wouldn't I be in danger?"

Jiang Sheng said: "They can't see it."

Shen Tang didn't understand why he was so confident.

"What do you mean by this?"

Nothing in this world is absolute.

How can Jiang Sheng guarantee that his "Wang Qi" is the strongest in the world? As everyone knows, there are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the world.

Unexpectedly——

"Because the Lord's 'qi' is very special."

"What's so special about it?"

"The special thing is that you may not have 'qi'."

Shen Tang: "..."

For a moment, she couldn't tell whether Jiang Sheng was fooling her or criticizing her. What did she mean by not being "angry"? Without "qi", wouldn't she be dead?

Jiang Sheng previously said that he discovered her secret by looking at her qi, but now he says that she has no "qi"!

This is really unfair to Jiang Sheng.

Jiang Sheng really didn't lie - he didn't lie from beginning to end, but he wasn't completely honest either. Previously, I just used some Chunqiu brushwork, avoiding the important and neglecting the important, which caused Shen Tang to misunderstand - Shen Tang's "Qi" is the most special he has ever seen in his life.

No matter you are dead or alive, male or female, old or young, human or animal, ordinary person or brave, without exception, there are different "qi" lingering around you. These "qi" All Jiang Sheng could see.

They are different colors.

Have different meanings.

Jiang Sheng can rely on these to distinguish fortune and even life and death, but Shen Tang is the only exception, he can't see it!

This alone is enough to make Jiang Sheng curious. But he is not a raccoon slave, and he will not take risks out of curiosity.

"Then how did you discover the Great Seal?"

It's also simple.

Jiang Sheng said that he could "see Qi", but that didn't mean that the way of being a scribe had only one use. It was also through this that he discovered Shen Tang's secret. As for how to operate it, Shen Tang didn't ask, and he didn't want to say more.

Shen Tang: "..."

I always feel like I've been cheated.

Bai and Su didn't expect that after waiting outside, a new gentleman showed up, and he was a familiar face.

She has a good memory and recognized the person from last night at a glance. I was curious and puzzled, this man was obviously not a good person.

It would be too dangerous for the Lord to keep him by his side.

Shen Tang waved his hand: "Don't be suspicious of people who are suspicious of you, but don't be suspicious of people you employ. When you wait for him, you should treat him with the same respect as you treat Yuanliang and others."

Bai Su and Lu Jue both clasped their fists.

Greet Jiang Sheng and meet new colleagues.

However, Jiang Sheng's reaction was a little slow, not because he meant it, but because he seemed to have heard a not-so-nice word: "The Yuanliang that the lord spoke of, is he a subordinate?"

Shen Tang: "Yes, yes. What's wrong?"

Jiang Sheng explained briefly: "There's nothing wrong with that. It's just that I had an enmity with a scribe named 'Yuanliang' many years ago. At first glance, I thought they were the same person, but there are tens of millions of people in mainland China, and there are many people with the same name." Many, it’s not unusual to happen to have the same word..."

He has met many "Yuanliangs" over the years.

Shen Tang didn't think much about it.

Although Qi Yuanliang has a lot of enemies, he doesn't always have them everywhere. There are many people with the same name and surname in the world. How can there be such a coincidence in the world?

I didn't take it to heart for a moment.

The most important thing at the moment is to clean up Luxia County, which has become a mess. The government offices are empty shells, government affairs are stagnant, and there is not much stock in the government treasury and granaries. If the damaged people are not resettled in time, chaos may occur. Externally, we have to beware of homeless people and bandits.

After much thought, Shen Tang repeated his old trick and sent people to search the house of the officer's brother-in-law who was the governor of Lu County. There were also a few villains who were in cahoots with the officer's brother-in-law. They scraped out a thick layer of oil and water from their bodies, which was obvious. People are speechless.

"...So rich! Mr. Lu should have a better memory in his next life. No matter how much he likes his wife, he must be wary of his mother-in-law. This life will be like writing a collection of wrong questions, and he will try not to fall into the same trap in the next life..." Governor Lu and his family The mourning hall for the young and old was set up in his mansion, and the servants and maids dispersed, leaving only an old housekeeper and Miss Lu's wet nurse and personal maid.

Four people, old and weak, guarded the large and cold mourning hall.

After Mrs. Lu woke up, she learned what had happened and saw the clean but still mutilated corpses of her father and brother. She burst into tears for a while. In the mourning hall, I fainted three times, and my lust was as strong as a thread.

He relied on the powerful ginseng decoction in his house to relieve his breath.

Shen Tang and representatives from three other families came to pay their respects and offer incense, which made Sheriff Lu's funeral look less cold.

As the only person in charge, Miss Lu saluted several people again and again. In just three days, she lost weight two or three times, and the clothes that originally fit her looked empty.

As an outsider, Shen Tang could only comfort her and "sorrow her condolences".

"When your blood relatives are buried, are you willing to move with me to Heyin's permanent residence?" The mourning hall was solemn and cold, and she still felt a little uncomfortable after staying there for a long time. Looking at the slightly blue girl, Shen Tang found an excuse to call out Miss Lu. , say something privately.

Miss Lu's expression finally changed.

Admittedly, she was very moved.

But after thinking about it, he still shook his head and declined.

She wanted to stay and be a filial piety to her father and brother, and raise her eldest brother's infant only son. When she thought of her eldest brother, who was lying quietly in the coffin, his body separated and died miserably to protect her, Miss Lu suddenly felt sad and her eyes turned red.

Not long ago, the family had a happy reunion.

Today, she and her nephew who were hidden in the stove were the only ones left. Her heart was clogged again and her complexion gradually turned blue.

But she still suppressed her tears.

Shen Tang was not surprised by this answer, it was just——

"Before your father died, I promised that he would take good care of you and take care of you. The world is getting more and more chaotic now. These homeless grassroots are the first batch, but they will not be the last batch. Luxia County lost your father, Wang The court is busy fighting again and has too much time to take care of itself. A new person in charge will not be sent down for a while... It is very dangerous for you to stay here..."

Miss Lu looked at Shen Tang in shock.

This was the first time she knew about this.

"You can keep your filial piety anywhere. Just follow your heart and don't have to stick to formalities. Your father loved you so much and was still thinking about you when he died..." He was willing to swallow his breath after hearing Bai Su's false voice, "I think, He won't care about this. He thought that you were the only one in the whole family who survived, and now he has an infant nephew. Even if you don't plan for yourself, you should plan for your nephew. If you stay in Luxia County, you can Take care of him?"

Basic safety cannot be provided, let alone materials on the road to growth. The elderly housekeeper, her wet nurse, the young personal maid, plus Miss Lu's aunt and nephew, this is a combination that can be bullied no matter where they are.

Shen Tang's proposal is undoubtedly the best choice.

Miss Lu was undoubtedly moved.

She originally wanted to end her mourning and join her father's relatives and friends during his lifetime. She thought that for the sake of her late father's past friendship, there would always be someone willing to donate a corner of her place to her. Even if you are living under someone else's roof, you can at least survive with roof tiles to protect you from the wind and rain.

But--

Facing the young man’s warm invitation...

She can't be ignorant again and again.

He nodded and agreed, but he needed to be tolerant for a few days. If Shen Jun was busy, he could take his troops back first, and then he would go to He Yin after he had packed up. Miss Lu was brought up by the governor of Lu County. Playing in the camp, dancing with swords and guns, and nicknamed Rouge Tiger. Naturally, she could see that the reinforcements that came to Luxia County did not bring a few days of food and grass.

I couldn't stay in Luxia County for more than a few days.

But she was only half right.

Save people to the end, and send Buddha to the West.

Governor Lu is gone, but County Luxia is still there.

Shen Tang sent a letter back and asked people to send food over. He was going to discuss it with the other three families and everyone took turns sending troops to guard Luxia County. I don’t know who is coming this time…

Turning his head, he saw Jiang Sheng on the corridor not far away.

The latter seemed to be smiling but not smiling, looking at the fun.

"Congratulations, lord, good things are coming soon."

Shen Tang was confused: "What good thing?"

Jiang Sheng: "Didn't Mr. Lu entrust me to you?"

"Is this a happy event?" She didn't understand.

"Gong Lu entrusted him before his death. When Miss Lu pays filial piety, my lord will be able to bring the beautiful woman home. How can it not be a happy event?"

Shen Tang: "..."

Jiang Sheng: "Lord, do you not want Miss Lu?"

Just taking care of the orphan girl out of kindness? ? ?

Shen Tang patted Jiang Sheng on the shoulder and said in a quiet tone: "Come on first, do you know? Wenxin scribes without horses are like your lord without guns!"

Jiang Sheng: "???"

Jiang Sheng: "!!!"
