"A person with an injury?" Yan Yujin stretched his head and looked left and right, "Who is that?"

"Have you seen it?"

"I was in the carriage just now," Yan Yujin patted the driver, "Did you see it?"

The driver shook his head.

Xia Qiu frowned slightly. Are you following the wrong direction? Otherwise, Yanfu's carriage should definitely hit the fugitive, unless...

"Ozu, where are you going?"

"I'm going home! My father likes to eat Man Ting Ju's sauce elbows. When his son has to crawl to buy it early in the morning, it will be gone when he arrives late." Yan Yujin grumbled, "Really, Since my father likes Taoist priests so much, why doesn't he learn to be vegetarian?"

"Did you buy it?"

"I bought three!" Yan Yujin leaned forward and pulled out a large food box from the carriage, "Brother Xia Qiu, do you want to share one?"

Xia Qiu also likes food very much. As soon as he smelled it, he knew that it was indeed Man Ting Ju's upper limit of selling 100 pieces of sauce elbow every morning. He smiled lightly, shook his head and said, "I still have something to do, you filial son, go back quickly."

"Wait, wait," Yan Yujin pounced forward, grabbed Xia Qiu who was about to leave, and asked with blinking eyes, "Who is Brother Qiu chasing? Are you a criminal? What did you do?"

"Really," Xia Qiu flexed his fingers and tapped on his head hard, "Why are you so curious? There is nothing that you are not interested in since you were a child! If you don't go back, your elbows will be cold. Be careful that your father hits you. butt!"

"Hehe," Yan Yujin laughed, "My father never beat me when I was a child, and he doesn't beat me now. If I were beaten since I was a child, it was all beaten by Sister Xia Dong. She also Didn't you come back?"

"No. I don't know what she's looking for outside." Xia Qiu was a little upset when he mentioned the twin sisters, and although he didn't capture the commander, there were still many things waiting to be dealt with, so don't delay any more and go ahead. He patted Yan Yujin and turned to leave.

Yan Yujin watched him walk away, and then ordered the driver to "go away", then retracted back into the carriage and lowered the thick curtain.

This is a four-wheeled carriage, the body is very wide, and there are piles of wax plums in the back. A person curls up in the pile of wax plums. When Yan Yujin comes in, he removes the bouquet and stands half-standing. Standing up, he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you Young Master Yan for your help."

"You're welcome, I didn't take any risks. If Brother Qiu found out just now, I'd say I was held by you, and he wouldn't do anything to me," Yan Yujin shrugged lightly, "Let's talk about it. , your master has given my father a big favor anyway, so let's repay him."

The fugitive was slightly surprised, and hurriedly said, "Is there some misunderstanding, Mr. Yan? I don't understand what you mean..."

"You don't have to hide it, Mr. Li," the uncle of the country smiled lightly. "Although you have changed your face, I still remember the tattoo on your wrist... By the way, your injury doesn't matter, right? Fortunately, I bought half a car of plum blossoms, otherwise Brother Qiu can't hide his blood from his body."

"It doesn't matter, it's just a flesh wound." Li Gang calmed down, "Young Master Yan, please find a quiet place near the intersection to put me down."

"Okay." Yan Yujin took a deep look at him and asked in a casual tone, "Isn't Brother Su ill? Why is there still effort to plan a conflict with Xuanjing Division?"

Li Gang lowered his head and said silently for a while: "If I say that the Sect Master doesn't know what happened today, will Master Yan believe it?"

Yan Yujin thought for a while and said frankly, "I don't believe it."

"But he really doesn't know." Li Gang raised his head and his eyes were bright, "Young master's kindness to save you today will definitely be reported in the next day, but this matter has nothing to do with my sect master. I ask your son to forgive me."

Yan Yujin stared at him for a long while, then suddenly burst out laughing, "Why are you nervous? I won't go to your Sect Master to exchange favors with your Sect Master for saving you today. In fact, whether you and the Xuanjing Division are due to grievances or disputes, it has nothing to do with me. If you think I ask too many questions, don't answer. Don't worry, although I am curious, but others If I don't want to say it, I won't force it."

Li Gang knew that this uncle and son-in-law was playful on the surface, but he was actually generous, so he didn't say anything, but just handed it over as a thank you. The carriage detoured to a dark alley close to Su's house. Yan Yujin got off the car first to check that there was nothing unusual. With a wave of his hand, Li Gang quickly jumped out of the carriage and went down the alley.

This operation aimed at robbing prisoners was a complete failure. Not only did the people who wanted to be rescued not be rescued, but also suffered heavy casualties. Fortunately, there were only limited soldiers in the hanging mirror, and without the permission and cooperation of the patrol battalion, it was impossible to launch a city-wide search and flee the scene. The talent got lucky. Although Li Gang could not confirm the final loss for the time being, but when he returned to Su Zhai and looked at Zhen Ping's face, he knew that the situation was not good.

"Has Feiliu come back?" The first sentence, ask this first.

"I came back early." Zhen Ping helped his companions into the room and sat down, ordering someone to take water and medicine.

"He didn't say anything to the sect master, did he?"

"Sect Master is still asleep. But seeing Fei Liu's face is very unhappy. I coaxed him for a long time, but I don't know if it has any effect."

Li Gang closed his eyes heavily. This time I took Feiliu out to coax him that there is a master who can challenge him, so the boy was very happy. In the end, although Xia Qiu was a master, he left in the middle of the fight. It is hard to guarantee that Feiliu would not complain to Mei Changsu that Uncle Li cheated. people.

"What should I do now?" Zhen Ping also fell to the side, as if asking him and then asking himself, "I attacked three times along the way, but I didn't save anyone, and now I'm in the prison of Xuanjing Division, and I can save more people. It's even more difficult... I'm afraid that the Sect Master will have to report it truthfully..."

"What did Dr. Yan say?"

"He asked us to hold on for two more days..." Zhen Ping was speaking, when he heard a noise in the courtyard, he quickly stood up, "It seems that Mrs. Wei is here."

Before the words were finished, the door of the house was pushed open, and a slender figure floated in immediately, wearing a long blue dress and a beautiful face. It was actually the doctor girl of Xunyang, the former beauty of Langya Yun Piao Liao. As soon as she came in, she hurriedly said, "I heard that Big Brother Li is back?" Before she could finish her speech, she saw that Li Gang was covered in scars. Brother, are you injured? It doesn't matter, right?"

Seeing that Yun Piao Liao was clearly anxious, but he was still able to bear to care about his injury first, Li Gang was also a little moved, and hurriedly said: "I don't mind, but I'm sorry Madam Wei, General Wei Zheng... I couldn't save him... "

In fact, upon seeing Li Gang's situation, Yun Piao Liao had already predicted that this time he would still be unsuccessful, but after hearing him speak plainly, his heart ached, and after a long time of stabilizing his mind, Fang asked in a trembling voice. : "Then have you seen him? He... how is he?"

"Don't worry, Madam Wei, her life will be safe for a while." Li Gang sighed, "It's just that Wei Zheng will be imprisoned in Xuanjing Division's prison immediately after entering the city. We need to inform the emperor, there is no need for further trial, we may be executed at any time, we don’t have much time.”

Yun Piao Liao only felt her legs softened, she fell down on the chair, and muttered, "Is there really no other way but hard calamity? In terms of financial resources, Xiyue Yaowanggu ranks among the richest people in Langya. No. 7 on the list, Wei Zheng has been the adopted son of Lord Sugu for eight years, and he has been in charge of the affairs all these years. The adoptive father and his old man must be willing to do everything possible to save him. In addition to our Xunyang Yun clan, You Jiang Zuo League... can't we buy Wei Zheng's life together?"

"If General Wei Zheng was discovered by other people, or there is still a turnaround. But Xia Jiang, the Xuanjing Secretary... is not easy to deal with. No matter how rich Yaowanggu and Yun's wealth are, they are only local rich people. But let’s just talk about it, in this world, what else can rival the power of the imperial court, or the imperial power? Li Nanhua’s family, who once ranked third on the Langya list, is not fighting for a piece of feng shui real estate with King Yu because of its wealth. Are you dragged into a human life lawsuit and lost?" Zhen Ping was relatively calm among the people present, and analyzed in a deep voice, "It's not just about Wei Zheng's life now. How big is Xuanjing Division's appetite? I haven't figured it out yet. Xia Jiang has caught General Wei Zheng, and he can take advantage of the situation to accuse Yaowanggu and Yunshi of harboring rebellion. I'm afraid there will be a big storm. And this time, when General Wei entered the capital, he avoided Jiang Zuo far along the way. The fourteen states have restricted our actions a lot, and it seems that Xia Jiang has some doubts about the connection between the Jiang Zuo Alliance and the old Chiyan clan."

"That's not necessarily true," Li Gang shook his head and said, "General Wei Zheng has never been directly related to the Jiang Zuo League. Xia Jiang's arrest of General Wei was actually to deal with King Jing. Now the suzerain is serving King Jing. Knowing what happened, it is natural for Xia Jiang to treat Jiang Zuo League as an enemy, but it does not necessarily mean that he realized that there is still a direct relationship between General Wei and the suzerain."

Zhen Ping pondered for a while, and agreed: "That's right. Our Jiang Zuo League has hidden its true face for more than ten years, and it will not be so easy to be discovered. Fortunately, this time the city gate prisoner has been considered in advance. It may fail. , so the brothers who have used the dark rudder around Jinling have limited knowledge, and even if they are arrested, they will not be deeply involved. It's just... Now this situation is beyond the control of the few of us. The suzerain is so seriously ill. Go and sue him?"

Li Gang stomped his feet and said: "If Young Master Lin is willing to come to Jinling to sit for a few days at this time, there is no need to make the Sect Master work hard at this juncture, but he is having a good time in Da Chu, and far water can't save near fire. "

Zhen Ping also said helplessly: "Is there any way to do this, Young Master Lin is not our old Chi Yan, he joined the Jiang Zuo League just for fun, do something when he is happy, no one can control him when he is unhappy, I miss him It is estimated that only the sect master knows the details."

Li Gang was about to say something, when he saw that Yun Piao Liao was speechless and weeping at the moment, understanding her anxiety, bent down and comforted: "Mrs Wei, don't be sad, now is not the time when the mountains and rivers are exhausted, the sect master will definitely There is a way."

Yun Piao Liao immediately shook her head and said: "I went to see Sect Master Mei's pulse, and I can't disturb him now. Although there are many things I don't know yet, I know how important Sect Master Mei is to Wei Zheng. Besides, it is Mrs. Wei. Besides, I'm still a doctor, and no doctor would make a patient even more alarmed, worried, and laborious when the patient's condition is so serious..."

Hearing her say this, both Li and Zhen felt a little sad. From the time Lin Shu could have his own "Red Feather Camp" at the age of sixteen, Wei Zheng had been one of his three lieutenants, and the only one who survived the fire. Everyone knows how much his arrest will impact Mei Changsu and how serious the consequences may be. But this incident was so unexpected that it took only half a month for Xuanjing Division to escort people to Beijing. After Jiang Zuo League received the news of Yaowanggu, the two robbery operations hurriedly organized in the middle were all due to The time was rushed and the preparations were rough and failed. Today, they took their last chance before entering the city, and even took Feiliu with them, but they still returned without success under the precautions of others.

When the three of them were at a loss, the spies sent by Zhen Ping when Fei Liu came back hurried in and reported the current situation in the city. Yun Piao Liao knew that they had important matters to discuss, so she took the initiative to return to the backyard. Although Li Zhen didn't mean to hide her from her, she didn't want to make her worry too much, so she didn't hold back. The two brought spies into the inner room to investigate carefully.

This spy was personally trained by Zhen Ping, so he was very clever and useful, and the news that came back from the spy was quite catchy. According to his report, among the nearly 100 people who participated in the operation, in addition to the more than 30 people who died on the spot, eight were arrested. Xia Qiu was probably not too interested in these non-high-level people, so he didn't chase after them, but quickly cleaned up the scene and took Wei Zheng and others back to the Xuanjing Division.

"Has anyone collected the corpses, brothers?" Li Gang asked, holding back tears.

"Yes, that's the city gate after all. Jingzhao Yamen will soon come to deal with it. We sent people to track them down, and they were all sent to the Righteous People's Village. Manager Li can rest assured that they will be buried in peace."

Zhen Ping also patted Li Gang's shoulder and said: "You don't have to worry about the pension, I'll handle it. You cheer up, now Mr. Thirteen is forced to hide, Miaoyinfang is also closed, and the branch in the city is dark. The mouth and the news channel all depend on the two of us to re-integrate. Even if there is no matter of General Wei, it will be a troubled time now."

Li Gang took a deep breath and sighed: "Speaking of Miaoyinfang, I still can't believe that Tong Lu would betray..."

Zhen Ping said with a cold expression: "Whether he was really betrayed, or just duped by others, it is still uncertain. Fortunately, Mr. Thirteen responded quickly. When he found that Tong Lu was missing, he immediately dismissed his subordinates and went into stealth. Only then did the government let the government I made a fuss at Miaoyinfang, but many brothers and sisters were temporarily unable to move because of this..."

Li Gang nodded and took a few steps inside the room. What he is most worried about now is not Tong Lu's disappearance. The young man who passed the news did not know the most core and deadly secrets of the Jiang Zuo League. Even if he betrayed him, he would only reveal the location of Mr. Thirteen and what information he had passed on to Mei Changsu. Now that Mr. Thirteen has successfully escaped, many of the information passed on at the beginning are outdated, and the secret that Mei Changsu secretly helped King Jing is no longer a secret. Therefore, the losses that Tong Lu will bring are limited after all. The question is still how to rescue Wei Zheng, whose identity was exposed and fell into the hands of the Xuanjing Division.

"Brother Li," Zhen Ping seemed to know what he was thinking, his eyes became a little darker, and he gritted his teeth, "Although the sect master agreed to retreat and recuperate, we can handle the affairs according to our discretion, but the situation is so serious now. , can we really continue to support like this without knowing the suzerain?"

Li Gang's brows were tightly locked, and he was silent for a long time. Just as he raised his head to speak, the door of the inner room was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and Fei Liu's pretty figure appeared outside the door, raising his chin, and said in a clear voice: " call you!"
