Since receiving the news that Yuan Wenshu set off from the southwest to return to Beijing, Quan Xu has become excited.

It is said that when Yuan Wenshu returned to Beijing, Quan Xu would not be so excited, but there are always exceptions in everything. Now Quan Xu can't wait to see Yuan Wenshu.

The reason is that he found that his boss, Sun Yan, had been acting extremely abnormal recently.

Every month, it disappears for a few days, and I ask for leave in advance. At first, Quan Xu didn't care, after all, he was his immediate boss.

It’s not the turn of Shangguan to be lazy, so he, his subordinate, isn’t it? But gradually, Quan Xu realized something was wrong.

Because the time for my Shangguan to disappear every month is too stable, although it seems to be no rules to outsiders.

But Quan Xu is different. His family has been in the northwest for generations, so he is very familiar with this set of things.

From the time when Sun Yan disappeared every month, he noticed some familiar traces, which were very similar to their handling methods in the northwest.

After the Military Supervision Office appeared, the Great Wei army came up with its own set of things to avoid the Military Supervision Office.

It was not very mature at the beginning. When the rebellion failed due to the Military Supervision Office during the Taizong period, the incidents of the failure of the rebellion occurred.

The system in the northwest has been forced to mature, and of course the north is no exception. Don’t the government know about this kind of thing?

That's too underestimated the official family and underestimated the ability of the embroidered yarn guards. Since the emergence of this secret system.

All the officials of the Great Wei Dynasty knew this clearly, but no emperor issued an order to investigate the matter.

After all, if you find one thing like this, you can change another one, but you can't keep checking it, right?

Besides, this kind of password-like thing is mainly used to guard against the Military Supervision Department, so why should we find out clearly?

You should know that any institution or organization can still meet the needs of those in power in the early stages of its establishment, but once it grows larger, there will inevitably be several ambitious people.

Therefore, we must never let any force dominate. This is what the emperor has to do. Since the military has this intention, why should we thoroughly investigate as an official? Isn’t it good to let them check each other?

So this system is not that the government does not know about it, but that the government knows that there is such a thing, but it just doesn't check it.

As for whether to check it out? Only the officials know, or the commanders of the embroidered garment guards of all generations, maybe they also know it.

Sun Yan's behavior was strange and he actually used the secret system of the Northwest, which aroused Quan Xu's suspicion.

More than a month ago, Quan Xu followed his Shangguan directly and went to a tea stall outside the city, but Quan Xu did not continue to follow.

As for why not follow? A strong man like Quan Xu, who has a strong back and a bear-back, has too big goals and is not suitable for following.

So he went home and called two of them among the personal soldiers sent by his father to protect his mother. They were both in the army before, and following them was their secret skill.

The next month, Sun Yan's performance was normal, but An Xu was not in a hurry. After all, it was just his own suspicion. If it was a misunderstanding, it would be embarrassing.

Just yesterday, Sun Yan left the city again. This time, Quan Xu sent two people to follow him, and they didn't come back until the evening.

Quan Xu said, "Thank you for your hard work, but what did you find?"

"Young Master, you asked the people we followed to go to a village 20 miles outside the city. It was very vigilant. Both of us were afraid of being discovered, so we didn't dare to go forward. However, the village was easy to recognize, and there should be a hot spring in the village." The personal soldier said

"Well, I have a map here. You can mark the village he went to for me." Quan Xu walked to the table and said

The recruits then stepped forward to mark the position. Quan Xu looked at the marked position and fell into deep thought.

I decided to wait until tomorrow to find out who the Zhuangzi belonged to. Only then did Quan Xu remember that the two personal soldiers were still there.

So he quickly said, "Thank you for your hard work, let's take a break early, go to the account office tomorrow, and each person will receive ten taels of silver."

"Thank you, Young Master." The two of them didn't expect to go out to track the individual and actually got ten taels of silver. You know, this is the military pay of the two of them for half a year.

After that, the two left Quanxu's room. Quanxu was considering who to ask for tomorrow to inquire about the village.

On the second day, he went to his grandfather's place. As soon as he entered the study, Zhang Xingzong said, "Why did you suddenly come to me? If you have any questions, just tell me."

"Maternal grandfather, look at what you said, this is fine, can't I come to see you?" Quan Xu said

"Oh, you're fine, are you? Then go out and don't disturb me reading." Zhang Xingzong said bluntly

"Oh, no, no, I have something to do, I have something to do." Quan Xu said quickly

Zhang Xingzong looked at him without saying a word, but Quan Xu knew that this meant to be a fart.

"That's right, my grandson fell in love with Zhuangzi. Isn't this here to ask you about whose family it belongs?" Quan Xu said

"Where is the Zhuangzi? Tell me?" Zhang Xingzong asked

"Just twenty miles west of the city, it is said that there is a hot spring in that village. When my grandson thought about buying a yard, he had some money left, so he planned to buy a yard. There is a hot spring in that yard. You can also soak it, which will be good for your health." Quan Xu said

"Twenty miles west of the city?" Zhang Xingzong muttered, then shook his head and said, "Don't think about that farm. You can't buy it. The owner will not sell it."

"Oh? I don't know whose farm it is? At worst, grandson can just pay more money, why don't you sell it?" Quan Xu asked.

"That was the Zhuangzi of the Rong family of Fuchang Hou. It is said that Rong Xi's sister Rong Feiyan, who liked the most during his lifetime."

"Even the name of that farm is named Feiyan Village. Now Rong Feiyan is dead. Do you think the Rong family will sell that farm?" Zhang Xingzong said

"Ah? That's actually the Rong family's village? This grandson didn't expect it." Quan Xu suppressed his shock and said in a hurry.

"It's good that you have this filial piety. You can go back and study it. If you change the place, you'll have it."

"You kid, don't go to the Rong family to ask about this. It's like hitting someone in the face. It's about to make enemies." Zhang Xingzong said

"My grandson understands, grandson will go back and choose a new village, so grandson won't disturb you from reading." After Quan Xu said that, he left Zhang Xingzong's study room and hurried home.

Zhang Xingzong looked at his grandson, and his passionate appearance, shook his head, and continued to read the book in his hand.

Quan Xu, after coming out of Zhang Xingzong's mansion, hurried home. His intuition told him that this matter was not that simple and something big was going to happen.
