Women dressed as men: powerful officials
Chapter 57: Steward of the Taiwei Mansion
Xu Yuan could hear that there was a threat in Song Bo's words.
She couldn't help but frown. Who was the noble person that Uncle Song was talking about?
Shen Renyao?
But Shen Yichuan's status should be higher than Shen Renyao's.
The person to be hunted down in the capital should be Shen Yichuan.
If not, then are there other people who have also arrived in Sishui County? Where did those people who were chasing Shen Renyao come from?
Or maybe, Uncle Song knows some inside information?
Countless possibilities are like a web, messy and disorganized, and no matter how hard you try to make a wish, you can't figure it out.
She simply didn't want to think about it and went out directly.
Xu Yuan got on her horse and was about to go back. Behind her, someone rode up and said, "Master Xu."
Xu Yuan turned around and saw that it was Uncle Song. He paused slightly and said in a bad tone, "Mr. Song, what can I do for you?"
Song Bo did not dismount, and Xu Yuan had no intention of dismounting either.
She didn't want to feel inferior to others for no reason.
Uncle Song said, "I see that Young Master Xu is quite intelligent. Have you ever thought about joining the Song family?"
Xu Yuan pretended not to know and said, "Song family? Which Song family? There is no Song family in Sishui County."
"It's not from Sishui County, but from the Song family of Taiwei Mansion in the capital." Looking at Xu Yuan, his eyes sparkled, "Mr. Xu, do you know that the Cheng family in Sishui County can be what it is today because of the support of the Song family? If you want, I can guarantee that the Cheng family will disappear from Sishui County tomorrow."
Hearing Uncle Song's words, Xu Yuan suppressed his unhappiness and said, "Uncle Song means that as long as I want, everyone in the Cheng family will die, right?"
Song Bo did not answer Xu Yuan's question, but just said: "Mr. Xu and Cheng Jie are not getting along. I have heard about it. I just want to help Mr. Xu. Mr. Xu, the most important thing in life is to know what's interesting."
"Cheng Jie does have a problem with me, but I won't let so many people die in vain just because of him. What's more, I can handle my own affairs, so there's no need for Mr. Song to worry."
Xu Yuan's eyes turned completely cold. She felt nauseous when she saw Song Bo treating human lives as ants.
Hearing Xu Yuan's words, Song Bo laughed instead of getting angry, "Xu Yuan, you really don't want to accept my toast. If you don't want to join the Song family, I can only help the Cheng family get rid of you. Mr. Xu, think it over carefully."
"If you can abandon the Cheng family today, you can abandon me tomorrow. Instead of being a chess piece, it is better to be the one playing the chess. What do you think, Mr. Song?" Xu Yuan smiled.
"Mr. Xu, you have great ambitions. I don't know whether I should say that you are ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth, or that you don't know what is good for you."
Song Bo patted the horse's back and was about to draw his sword.
Xu Yuan saw this and said, "Mr. Song, this is outside the military camp. You want to kill someone now. Do you not want to return to the capital alive?"
Song Bo sneered, "Do you think Xie Xiaocheng can do anything to me?"
"Yes, he can't do anything to you, but if that happens, I'm afraid everyone in the capital will know that the housekeeper of Song Taiwei's mansion killed someone in Sishui County. As for killing..."
Xu Yuan didn’t say anything else.
Because Song Bo's face changed.
Xu Yuan said again: "Old man, you must be curious about how I know your identity, right?"
Uncle Song pursed his lips and said nothing.
When he came to Sishui County, he was not with Chunyu.
Chunyu came first, he came to Sishui County with other orders.
These days, he lived in the Cheng family, using the excuse of being a teacher hired by the Cheng family as an excuse to stay at home and rarely show up in public.
Not to mention outsiders, even the Cheng family, no one knew that he was the steward of the Taiwei Mansion.
But the person in front of me guessed it, even though they had only met a few times.
"It's very simple. The old man introduced himself as coming from the Song family of the Taiwei Mansion in the capital. So, it's easy to guess. Someone with the same surname as the master is either the son of an old man in the mansion, or an old man in the mansion. Obviously, the old man is the latter."
"The old gentleman is old, but he is in good health, and he even knows martial arts. These are actually nothing. What's important is that the old gentleman knows General Xie, and General Xie also knows the old gentleman. The old gentleman can even make decisions for the entire Song family. In this way, the answer is very obvious."
After making the wish, he looked carefully at Song Bo's expression.
When she saw Song Bo's face change again, she said, "It seems that I guessed right. You are the steward of the Taiwei Mansion."
"Make a wish, did you know that only the dead can keep secrets?"
Uncle Song looked at Xu Yuan coldly, murderous intent evident in his eyes.
"It's just a pity. You're a smart man."
Hearing those familiar words, Xu Yuan was stunned.
In her previous life, when she died, Wei Chenyi said the same thing.
What a pity, you are a smart man.
The moment she came to her senses, the cold blade was heading towards her heart.
Seeing this, Xu Yuan pulled the reins hard, then clamped his grip on the horse's belly and rushed into the military camp, shouting, "Murder! Murder!"
Seeing this, Song Bo hurriedly wanted to leave, but a group of people rushed out and said, "This is a strategic location in the military camp, who dares to act rashly?"
In the military camp, no one except Xie Xiaocheng is allowed to ride a horse.
Xu Yuan didn't care. She rode her horse and went straight to the main tent without caring whether Song Bo caught up with her.
The moment she saw Xie Xiaocheng, she fell off her horse and shouted, "General Xie! Someone wants to kill me!"
Even though they had not been together for a long time, Xie Xiaocheng knew that Xu Yuan would not easily get so flustered.
Either the previous calmness was fake, or the current panic is fake.
Thinking of this, he asked, "Who wants to kill you?"
"It was the old man just now. He drew his sword just as I left the barracks. Fortunately, I was riding fast and was able to come back and call for help. Otherwise, I'm afraid he would not only kill me, but also my whole family. Do you think he heard what we said in the tent just now?"
Hearing Xu Yuan's words, Xie Xiaocheng's eyebrows jumped, and almost immediately, he thought of what Song Bo had said before.
The only noble person in the capital can be Bei Yao.
The Song family is going to take action on behalf of the prince!
Thinking of this, Xie Xiaocheng immediately said: "Come on, chase them! We must keep them!"
After saying that, Xie Xiaocheng no longer cared about Xu Yuan. He pulled Xu Yuan's horse, grabbed his spear and chased after him.
Watching the group of people leaving in a mighty procession, Xu Yuan hugged his arm which was a little hurt from the fall and smiled softly, "The trick of killing someone with a borrowed knife is really always effective."
Xu Yuan was made on purpose to provoke Uncle Song.
At first, she didn't think about doing anything to Uncle Song, nor did she think about going against Uncle Song. It was Uncle Song who targeted her first.
She knew that in Song Bo's eyes, her life was just a matter of moving a finger.
If she didn't keep Song Bo, he might attack her immediately and not only kill her but also her parents.
In Sishui County, neither the Cheng family nor the county magistrate could do anything to Song Bo, except Xie Xiaocheng.
Xu Yuan could see that Xie Xiaocheng and Song Bo didn't get along, but they wouldn't do anything to each other.
But if Xie Xiaocheng thought that Uncle Song wanted to kill her because of Shen Renyao, and might have known Shen Renyao's hiding place, then Xie Xiaocheng would definitely not let Uncle Song leave.
This is not a conflict between Xie Xiaocheng and Song Bo.
It is a life-and-death situation between Shen Renyao and Song Bo.
Thinking of this, it seems a little strange to make a wish.
It seems that the third prince Beiyao attaches great importance to Shen Renyao, so other people will also care about Shen Renyao's life or death.
But how come she had never heard of Shen Renyao in her previous life? Not only that, she had never even heard of Shen Renyao, who was under the Third Prince.
She also suspected that the name Shen Renyao was fake.
But Xie Xiaocheng knew this person...
It's true, there's something weird about it.
