Song of Burying Snow

It was dusk when the few people arrived at the government office, and they got to know the local situation with the magistrate. Seeing that it was dark, they didn't cooperate even if they thought about doing something, so they planned to go to the field tomorrow to see the situation. Talked to the prefect in detail, and when the prefect saw the special envoy coming, he sent the only errand to call people back to prepare dinner. Finally, the dinner was used.

After dinner, the magistrate arranged rooms for the rest of the people, and then went to the study with Huan Zhan and Huan Yu to continue the conversation. After talking about everything in detail, after learning the details, Huan Zhan felt that this matter was really not as good as it should be. It's as simple as I thought at first.

First of all, let’s not talk about the locust plague, just talk about those horse thieves. From the words of the prefect, we can know that although those horse thieves are colluding with gangsters, they seem to be instructed by others. They also know some strategies. It may be comprehensive, those horse thieves will not confront the defenders head-on, you will run away after you chase me, you will not love to fight, and you will escape into the deep mountains in an instant. The opportunity for the defenders to confront each other head-on is that although the number of horse thieves is not large, the lives of the nearby people are destitute. In addition to the locust plague, it is almost impossible to survive. But this horse thief is rampant, and the people may not be able to keep them if they let them go, so they want to let them go but dare not let them go, there is no way.

"Didn't General Li try to find the lairs of those horse thieves? Wouldn't it be better to find their lairs and uproot them?" Huan Zhan said after hearing what Sun Zhifu said.

"Why haven't I looked for it? I did, but the mountain where those horse thieves are entrenched is called Hornet Mountain. The situation on the mountain is just like its name. It's like a hornet's nest. There are caves everywhere. No one knows where they are hiding, and there are many The caves are of the same vein, even if they find one and block one, they can escape from the other side." The prefect waved his hand.

"It's really troublesome." Huan Zhan's brows were filled with sadness. He didn't expect this matter to be so difficult. At first, he really thought it would be easy, and looked at Huan Yu beside him. "Third brother, what do you think of this matter?"

"Me? How can I think about this kind of thing? I don't understand, brother!" Huan Yu said helplessly.

"Forget it, you don't like to participate in these things, and my elder brother won't force you, so let's go back to our rooms. I have to think about this matter of horse thieves!" Huan Zhan walked out of the study first, and Huan Yu followed superior.

Watching Huan Zhan go back to the room, Huan Yu also went to the room, but when he reached the door, he turned around again, and went in the direction of Zhuoyan's room. When he reached the door, he found that the door was not latched, so he pushed the door open and went in. At a glance, he saw sitting on the couch side flames. "What are you thinking? Still not sleeping?"

"Why are you here!" Zhuo Yan obviously didn't expect Huan Yu to come so late, he was thinking about things, but he didn't want to be interrupted, and he was a little flustered.

"I want to see you." Huan Yu walked up to Zhuoyan and sat down on the couch beside Zhuoyan.

"Look at me? What's so good about me?" Zhuo Yan was a little puzzled.

"How do you know you're not good-looking?"

"Ah?" Zhuo Yan didn't understand what Huan Yu meant, and looked at Huan Yu curiously, but saw Huan Yu's eyes looking at his face, getting closer and closer. "You... what's wrong with you?"

"Hush!" Huan Zhan hissed with his index finger on his lips, then moved to Zhuo Yan's cheek to touch it lightly, and then backed away.

"What are you doing?" Zhuo Yan was a little puzzled by Huan Yu's actions.

"Hehe, it's nothing, you will understand slowly in the future!" Huan Yu smiled, not intending to explain.

"Oh, so why don't you go back to sleep?" Zhuo Yan saw that Huan Yu didn't intend to explain more, and he didn't follow up with questions. He didn't have the habit of asking the bottom line.

"Go to sleep after reading this, and you should go to bed earlier!" Huan Yu got up, left the bed and walked out the door, making Zhuo Yan's expression inexplicable.

Here, Huan Yu came out of Zhuoyan's room, and was about to go back to his room to sleep, when suddenly a piece of broken tile fell to his feet, he felt strange, raised his head, and saw a black shadow flash past, hurriedly jumped onto the room , After chasing him, the man probably didn't expect that he would startle people. Seeing someone chasing behind him, he hurriedly fled to the outside of the mansion at a faster speed. Huan Yu chased after him without hesitation.

Huan Yu chased that person all the way, almost catching up to him a few times, and made people escape. The man probably saw that he had no hope of escaping, so he turned around and slapped Huan Yu. Huan Yu didn't expect him to do this Suddenly, he hurriedly dodged sideways, and when he stabilized his body and prepared to win the attack from that person again, he found that the person had already fled and disappeared.

After being lost, Huan Yu had no choice but to go back to the government office, instead of going through the gate, he just jumped back as he went out, carefully looked at the surrounding environment on the roof, and there was no change, so he jumped off the roof and went back to his room , Washed hastily, went to bed and was about to fall asleep, but involuntarily began to think about the man in black in his mind. He was too talented to be called a horse thief, and it would be easier to be a gentleman than a horse thief. If he is not a horse thief, then who would come to the magistrate's office sneakily in the middle of the night? If he is a gentleman on Liangshang, this place is suffering from a famine, what else is worth remembering, after thinking about it, and finally thinking about it Suddenly a person appeared, the second prince Huanqing.

"Knock-knock!" Huan Yu was thinking so hard that he couldn't fall asleep, lying there with his eyes open, when he suddenly heard a few knocks on the door. "who?"

"It's me, Zhuoyan!" Zhuoyan replied outside the door.

"What are you doing looking for me if you don't sleep so late?" Huan Yu got up and opened the door.

"Not long after you left, I went to close the door, but I found this thing at the door. It looked very delicate. I was afraid it was something important for you, so I brought it to you." While speaking, Zhuo Yan handed something to Huan Yu .

Huan Yu took the object in Zhuoyan's hand with some doubts, and took a closer look. It was actually a delicate jade ring, which was different from ordinary rings. The flowers and leaves have a somewhat lifelike feeling of living flowers and leaves. If you look closely, one of the leaves also has the appearance of Tai Chi Eight Diagrams.

"You found this at the door of your room?" Huan Yu asked.

"Yes! I thought it was yours." Zhuo Yan replied.

"Has anyone else appeared at your door today?"

"I haven't had one since I entered the house."

"Could it be his?" Huan Yu lowered his eyes and asked in a low voice.

"Who is he?" Zhuo Yan was a little curious when he saw Huan Yu mentioning one.

"It's nothing, it's getting late, you go back and rest now, we'll talk about it tomorrow." Huan Yu helped Zhuoyan's shoulders and pushed.

"Oh, okay!" Zhuoyan also cooperated, and really turned around and went back to his room to sleep. Seeing Zhuoyan walking away, Huan Yu also went back to the room and continued to close the door and go to bed, but the thoughts in his mind seemed to be more chaotic.
