Vol 2 Chapter 130: Xu 7'an's interception plan

A month ago...Sanhuang County was located on the edge of Chuzhou. The investigation was so rigorous, who was it looking for, or who was it besieging?
In the past few days, I went to the deep mountains and old forests without paying attention to whether the official road also set up checkpoints.
No matter who you are looking for, it is definitely not looking for me...Is it because I think too much? Do not rule out the possibility of adding me to the "blacklist" in the near future.
Anyway, to find one person is to find, and to find two people is to find.
Xu Qi'an tapped his finger on the desktop, making short-term goals while analyzing:
"I will leave for Xikou County tomorrow. If there is a problem there, it is very likely that the place where the blood massacre Sanqianli happened. In this way, there may be danger. Should I bring the princess?
"Well, when you are near Xikou County, you can put her in a safe inn nearby. The pawn, Wang Hao, is well used. Maybe it can save my life and not lose it."
Seeing Xu Qi'an groaning silently, Cai'er sat aside and did not speak.
As time passed, Xu Qi'an finally recovered from his contemplation, and said: "Help me make a pot of tea."
Cai'er was overjoyed and answered happily, which meant that Xu Yinluo would stay here tonight.
Sure enough, after she made the tea, she listened to Xu Yinluo's instructions again: "Change the sheets and bedding."
Cai'er was so excited that she changed her sheets and bedding quickly.
After drinking a pot of tea, it was late at night, Xu Qi'an finished soaking her feet under Cai'er's service, and then lay down on the bed, stretching her waist comfortably.
Recently, I have stayed overnight in the wilderness, and I have a very poor sleep experience. I haven't enjoyed a soft bed for a long time.
"Master Xu, the slave family is here to serve you." Cai'er was sitting on the edge of the bed with enthusiasm, as she spoke.
"Cai'er," Xu Qi'an was lying on the bed looking at her, and suddenly said, "Do you think your bed is too soft and it is not comfortable to fall asleep."
"Master Xu is reasonable. I heard that sleeping on a hard slatted bed is better for your body. If the bed is too soft, you get tired easily." Cai'er smiled, and said that she had studied the bed with others, and Master Xu was indeed a romantic person.
Xu Qi'an nodded and said with a serious expression: "So for the sake of your body, I will sleep in bed tonight when you sleep."
Cai'er: "???"
...........
The next day, when the sky was bright, Xu Qi'an finished washing and left the Yayin Building in Cai'er's small eyes.
Now it is late spring, the weather is warm, and it is even a little hot at noon, otherwise you can see the pictures of the clients shivering in the cold wind.
Xu Qi'an walked leisurely in the direction of the inn along the street.
Suddenly, a line of armored soldiers appeared in front of him. The leader was not the armored general, but a man wrapped in a black robe and wearing a mask.
His gaze only stayed on the black robe man for a few seconds, Xu Qi'an moved his eyes quietly, and brushed past him.
"wait!"
Behind him came the voice of the black-robed man, and the sound of reining his horse.
So keen? Xu Qi'an turned around, naturally with a certain alertness and respect on his face, and said, "My lord, are you calling me?"
The black-robed man turned his horse's head, looked at Xu Qi'an condescendingly, and asked, "Where are you from? Can you give me a guide?"
"some."
Xu Qi'an said his false identity again.
The black-robed man asked again: "Practicing martial arts?"
Xu Qi'an lowered his eyebrows and replied, "As long as the villain has martial arts talents, he is already at the pinnacle of refinement at the age of nineteen. It's just that it's really difficult to practice aura, and coupled with the attractiveness of a female, it is the age at which he should become a family. on........"
He appropriately expressed a bit of pride but regret.
The black-robed man looked at his face for a moment, didn't say anything, turned his horse's head, and led the army to move on.
"call........"
Seeing the army's back figure drifting away, Xu Qi'an was relieved and withdrew the power of "Heaven and Earth Slash", which made his breath collapse and shrink inward.
"Hey, there is a saying, people who only have waste, don't have waste skills. I perfectly solved Wufu's weakness in hiding himself. The disadvantage is that he is ready to go, and finally he can't send it out. It is particularly uncomfortable. ........."
Men know how uncomfortable it is.
"This guy is wearing weird clothes. It should be what the information says, Zhenbei King's spy? Zhenbei King's spy appeared in Sanhuang County, huh..."
They are looking for someone, they may be looking for me, they may be looking for others.
In fact, the watchmen were also spies, the secret agents of Emperor Yuanjing, so the watchmen had the establishment and were paid by the court. The secret agents of the Zhenbei King belonged to the "private soldiers" of the Zhenbei King.
They were out of the north, nothing. But here, even the imperial court has to give three points.
Because they only represent Zhenbei King.
"As the confidant of Zhenbei King, I must know a lot of inside information. Why should I go blindly on my own? This case is different from the Yunzhou case and the Sangbo case. There is no need to pull the cocoon. There is a very clear goal: to find out the blood. The truth about Tu Sanqianli.
"And such mass killings cannot be concealed, which means that I don’t have to look for clues a little bit like in previous cases. Just catch him and torture him. If the other party is a villain, then kill. spiritualism........."
Returning to the inn where they were staying, the early risers had already had breakfast in the lobby on the first floor, and the guests who didn't want to go downstairs asked Xiao Er to bring breakfast to the room.
Naturally, this does not include the cowardly princess. Before Xu Qi'an came back, she would not take the initiative to let any man into the room, nor would she go out.
After so many days of getting along, Xu Qi'an was able to confirm this.
She is a very insecure woman, probably caused by the experience of the first half of her life.
Xu Qi'an ordered Xiao Er to deliver breakfast upstairs in a quarter of an hour, and then followed the stairs to the door of the princess's room. When her ears moved, she caught the slight breathing in the room.
Still sleeping........ With his palm pressed against the door, he opened the door by operating the door bolt with a gas engine.
On the bed, the princess leaned sideways, sleeping in a dignified posture, and her face quiet.
At this time, she had the appearance of a princess.
Xu Qi'an opened the window to let fresh air flow into the room. He sat in front of the dressing table and went back to the case in his mind.
[The Case of Three Thousand Miles of Blood Slaughter]
Location: Xikou County (suspected).
Murderer: Unknown.
Purpose: Unknown.
[Assault on the Princess]
Location: On the way northbound.
Murderers: Northern Barbarian, Northern Monster.
Purpose: To prevent the King of Zhenbei from being promoted to the second rank and to greedy the body of the princess (lingyun).
"At present, there is no substantial connection between the two cases. Maybe the barbarian knew that Zhenbei King was going to be promoted to the second rank, so he took the opportunity to harass and attract attention, so that Zhenbei King did not dare to leave Chuzhou at will, and then secretly sent people. Ambush and take away the princess.
"The King of Zhenbei is the general soldier of Chuzhou. He holds the military power of the entire Chuzhou. He cannot return to Beijing without summons. However, Emperor Yuan Jing seems to agree with the promotion of the younger brother of the first mother to the second rank and recalls him. Beijing is not difficult. So the motives of the barbarians invading the border can be explained.
"The case of Xuetu Sanqianli was also committed at this time? However, the four fourth-rank masters and tribal leaders did not know about this. What's more interesting is that Chu Xianglong, who was a deputy, did not know about this.
"Well, it cannot be ruled out that a certain man from the Manchu nationality did it, but it did not leak out. The mystery warlock was also involved, what is he planning?"
Just thinking about it, through the bronze mirror, he saw the princess rubbing her eyes and sitting up.
"Wake up?" Xu Qi'an smiled.
The princess yawned, ignored him, fetched washing utensils, and squatted by the bed to wash her face and brush her teeth.
After washing, she said with a look of disgust: "It smells so bad that it smells like powder, some people will die on the belly of a woman sooner or later."
The way you look now is like a bitter wife who can't control her husband who goes out to prostitute... Xu Qi'an is slanderous, of course, this is just a complaint in his heart.
The princess certainly doesn't care if he does whoring or not. What she cares about is that she left her to go out fooling around last night, leaving her alone in the inn for a long time.
"Do you want to sleep for a while?" Xu Qi'an suggested: "After an hour, we set off and headed west to Xikou County."
"Are you out of business?" The princess was surprised.
"Everything is done in the brothel." Xu Qi'an showed a serious smile.
The hidden child who beats the guard is a secret and cannot be revealed. Even the harmless princess, Xu Qi'an cannot tell her. Otherwise it is disrespect for Anzi.
However, it is precisely because the princess is harmless that the need is not afraid to disclose these small details. I want to come to the princess's superficial scheming, unexpected.
Bah... The princess blushed and took a sip.
.........
Beijing, Jiaofang Division.
She woke up lazily with a fragrant attitude, washed and changed her clothes under the service of the maid. After dressing in the mirror, she suddenly pressed her heart and frowned.
The next moment, his face returned to normal, and he whispered softly: "You go out first, I'm going to sleep for a while."
The close maid was a little strange, but she didn't say anything, and left the room obediently.
When the people walked away, the floating incense took out a fox head incense burner from the bottom of the bed, a dark incense, she cut a lock of hair and wrapped it around the dark incense, then lit the incense and inserted it into the incense burner.
Floating incense respectfully placed the censer on the table, knelt on his knees, and muttered to himself.
The pitch-black incense burned out at a very fast speed, and the ashes fell on the table lightly, gathering with confidence, forming a short line of small characters:
The Northern Territory has happened, and you may return to your family.
Looking at this line of words, Fuxiang's face was inexplicably excited, and there was a kind of joy at the end of the hard days. But in the eyes, there is a trace of nostalgia and reluctance.
.........
Chuzhou City.
After three days of rushing, the mission arrived at Chuzhou City under the of an army of 500 people sent by the king of Zhenbei.
In the 13 continents of Dafeng, the core state city is usually located in the center of the region. The exception is Chuzhou, which is close to the border and faces the barbarians and monsters in the north.
People in the north often say that it is precisely because of the Zhenbei King who sits in the city of Chuzhou that it can survive the intrusion of northern barbarians for decades.
In history, Chuzhou City has been broken twice, and there have been two massacres.
But in the generation of the Zhenbei King, the weather around Chuzhou City was smooth, and the barbarian cavalry did not dare to disturb Chuzhou City for hundreds of miles, because this area was stationed with the most elite troops in the north.
Dali Temple Cheng opened the curtain of the carriage and looked out over the towering city walls. The walls between them were engraved with many retro and weird patterns, which spread all over every corner of the city wall.
On the female wall, there were artillery and bed crossbows developed by Si Tianjian with great lethal weapons.
"The "Dafeng Geography Chronicles" says that the walls of Chuzhou City are engraved with formations. The walls are strong and can resist the attacks of the third-grade masters. It is really better to see than a hundred times." Dali Temple Cheng said with emotion.
The major cities along the border of Dafeng have all portrayed similar formations to strengthen their defenses. Every hundred years, the Sitian Supervisor will summon all the sorcerers to repair and supplement the formation.
"There is another king of Zhenbei, and the city of Chuzhou is as golden." Liu Yushi echoed.
When the mission arrived at the gate of the city, it was seen that a dozen officials had been waiting for a long time. The leader was a man wearing a scarlet robe, with a long beard to the chest, and a clear face, showing the elegance of a scholar and the spirit of a frontier official.
Zheng Xinghuai, Chief Minister of Jiangzhou.
"Master Zheng, it's been three years since I'm parting from the capital." Liu Yushi laughed forward and looked quite familiar with Zheng Xinghuai.
The envoy Zheng nodded slightly, squeezing a little smile on his unsmiling face, and after some greetings, he led everyone to the largest station in Chuzhou.
After they settled down, Yang Yan and others sat in the hall to discuss matters with Envoy Zheng.
"Master Zheng, Your Majesty and the princes heard about the "Three Thousand Miles of Blood" case in Chuzhou. They were furious and sent me to come to find out the matter. I hope Master Zheng will help me." Liu Yushi arched his hands. .
Zheng Xinghuai, who was already aware of this matter, nodded slightly and asked, "How many adults would like this officer to help?"
Yang Yan said bluntly: "I need the records of Chuzhou's frontier army leaving the camp, as well as the official document exchanges between yamen in Chuzhou."
Chief Minister Zheng did not answer. He looked around and said casually: "I heard that the organizer Xu Yinluo returned to Beijing due to injury?"
Liu Yushi sighed and said: "Encountered an ambush on the way..."
Envoy Zheng frowned, in an official tone:
"Without the organizer, this right to do things cheaply... Of course, the official can give a few adults a look at the official document exchanges between various yamen. It is only the record of the frontier army. I am afraid that only the organizer has Power interrogation. This official will report to Duke Huai, but there is no guarantee that Duke Huai will be accommodating."
Liu Yushi and others were not angry, and said with a smile, "Thank you, Mr. Zheng, and Mr. Zheng."
After the talk, ~EbookFREE.me~, Chief Minister Zheng left because of his busy schedule.
Dali Temple Cheng glanced at Liu Yushi and shook his head: "Unfortunately, the two yushis are still yushi. If they are governors, tsk tsk..."
Yushi was Yushi when he was in the capital. Once ordered to inspect a place, that is the governor.
The power of the governor directly overwhelms the three top leaders: the commander, the chief and the prosecutor.
But it was precisely because of the power of the governor that Xu Qi'an was appointed as the organizer. The attitude of Emperor Yuan Jing was very obvious, and the mission could not be used to check and balance King Huai.
Yang Yan said indifferently, "How about this Zheng Chief Envoy?"
Liu Yushi said hurriedly: "I have some friendship with him. This person is a clean official and has an excellent reputation."
.........
Sanhuang County.
Outside the city, in the pergola beside the official road, the mediocre princess and the handsome and picturesque Xu Qi'an were sitting at the table, drinking low-quality tea.
This place is not far from the gate of the city. A pot of tea costs two cents, which is very cheap. In addition, the location is well selected. Under a big banyan tree, when the wind blows, it is shady and comfortable. Along the way, people who enter or leave the city stop to rest and drink tea here.
Xu Qi'an held the teacup, thinking about his "interception" plan.
If you want to get information from the secret agent of the Zhenbei King, you must not be in the city. Not only will it affect innocent people, but you can also be killed.
The best way is to wait for the opponent to leave the city.
Since it is a search for people, I will definitely not stay in a small county for too long. There are countless counties in the north, and it is impossible for every city and township to have staff.
Therefore, the spy must be mobile.
He just has to wait for the rabbit.
At this time, he found that the men next door behaved somewhat abnormally.
