Qin Chuan originally squinted his eyes and looked at Li Xiuyan in front of the state gate, and couldn't help but be a little curious, that day, if Lao Dao hadn't saved his life at Guanshankou, he wouldn't have appeared in front of Ningzhou City today. And the entourage around here, this formation is not small, it seems that Shen Lingqiu is right, the Li family in Ningzhou is indeed a wealthy family in Ningzhou, but he can't figure out why Li Xiuyan is frowning at the moment, and he seems to have something on his mind. And the entourage standing next to him was also a little cautious, as if he was on guard against something. Could it be said that Chen Xiangyuan really dared to make a move against the Li family in Ningzhou in broad daylight? It is said that the people of Qingzhou City are fierce, and now it seems that Ningzhou City is not far behind.

But Qin Chuan looked at Chen Xiangyuan, who was smiling, but he began to be cautious in his heart, and he was able to lead his entourage to Guanshankou to kill the next head of the Li family in Ningzhou, and this courage alone made Qin Chuan have some admiration. Compared with Li Xiuyan, Qin Chuan seems to agree more with some of Chen Xiangyuan's methods. It's just that now Shen Lingqiu and Chen Xiangyuan have some conflicts, so Qin Chuan can only stand on the opposite side of him.

The carriage slowly drove into the city gate of Ningzhou, Shen Lingqiu's heartbeat became faster and faster, even if it was Aunt Zhi, her expression was a little unnatural, but fortunately, the sky was already overcast, and the guards at these city gates did not see it. For these gatekeepers, it is easiest to be vigilant when it is dark, and many bandits from the martial arts rivers and lakes have to enter the city gate at this time to commit crimes, especially the commotion in Qingzhou City, which makes these guards who guard the gate begin to cheer up.

There are fewer and fewer small merchants and vendors entering the state city, and the guards of these state gates have slowed down a little because of this, Qin Chuan drove the carriage, and it was only a distance of two hundred steps, and looking at the slow and leisurely procession, I am afraid it will take a while. Therefore, he looked at Li Xiuyan and Chen Xiangyuan with some curiosity, wondering if they were waiting for themselves or waiting for something else.

Perhaps it was getting dark, and there were more mosquitoes next to the trees, and the attentive entourage lit wormwood to repel mosquitoes, and soon bursts of cooking smoke rose, as if they were cooking. However, at this moment, whether it is Chen Xiangyuan or Li Xiuyan, they are very anxiously looking at the carriages on the post road, it has reached this time, and it will be troublesome if they don't enter the city gate again. Since the state guards of Qingzhou City were threatened, the state guards of Ningzhou City have issued an order, if there is no such thing as his hand, no one can enter or leave the city gate when it is dark, otherwise they will all be served in accordance with the criminal law. Therefore, even the four major families in Ningzhou, at this critical time, can only abide by this rule, and dare not have any disobedience.

After a while, several carriages came galloping, but the distance was relatively far, and it was not clear for a while who was coming. It's already this time, and if you can't enter the city again, you'll have to wait until tomorrow. So Chen Xiangyuan and Li Xiuyan all stood up, and seemed to think that the oncoming carriage was to transport goods for themselves, so this also meant that one of them would definitely return empty-handed.

Seeing the carriage getting closer and closer, Chen Xiangyuan's face began to be unbearable, because he clearly saw that the coachman in the lead had hung the flag on it, and it was clearly hung with the word Li, which was obviously not the carriage he had to wait for for a few days, and the original smiling face began to sneer.

Seeing this, an entourage beside him knew that Chen Xiangyuan was about to lose his temper, so he hurriedly stepped forward and explained: "Last night, the ghost hand Liu Feige passed a book, saying that everything was ready. In total, there were three wagons transporting the goods, all experienced veterans. Although he is not a martial arts practitioner in the synaesthesia realm, he has always been steady in doing things, and he has not gone wrong for so long, but he didn't expect to see them at this time, so who is the Tao on the road?" After the entourage finished speaking, he secretly glanced at Li Xiuyan, and it seemed that the underlying meaning was what the Li family in Ningzhou did.

Chen Xiangyuan shook his head: "I only care about the result, don't talk to me about the process." Now the result is that Ghost Hand Liu didn't deliver the things on time, which delayed my big event, and I can't spare him. Pass my word and check the carriages that are in and out of Ningzhou City today to see who did it. Although I am not in a hurry, but the bullying has hit my head, and I can't spare him. ”

The attendant snorted, and then stood in place, wanting to see what goods were being pulled on the carriage where Li Xiuyan was waiting.

As the carriages approached, Li Xiuyan stood up and held the torch, walked towards the depths of the darkness, handed over a wine bag to the leading coachman, patted him on the shoulder and said: "Boss Xing, this trustworthy person in Ningzhou City, now there is only you left, I dare not say anything else, I have prepared good wine and good food." Brothers, please go to the city as soon as possible to rest, and leave these carriages to us. ”

As soon as Li Xiuyan's words fell, several entourages beside him immediately inserted the Da Liang knife into the scabbard, and then led the horses straight towards the city gate, majesticly along the way, as if they had won a battle.

Chen Xiangyuan's face became more and more gloomy, at this moment he couldn't stand anymore, he made a look to the back, and immediately an entourage walked over to the guard at the city gate, only to see him whisper a few words, then took some broken silver from the cloth bag, quietly handed it to one of the guards, and then waited for Li Xiuyan to come to the front.

"It turned out to be Li Gongzi, I haven't seen you for a long time, I don't know where to rush with such goods?" The guard who collected the money asked Li Xiuyan with a smile, and he didn't care about accepting Chen Xiangyuan's black money and others looked down on him. Now in Ningzhou City, who doesn't know the relationship between Chen Xiangyuan and the state guard, and following Chen Xiangyuan, that is to help the state guard do things, what's wrong with this?

Li Xiuyan stood in front and saluted the guards: "It turned out that Zhou Ye was on duty, and I really didn't know Mount Tai." After that, an entourage also stepped forward and took out some broken silver, looking at the weight, it should be the same as what Chen Xiangyuan gave.

Li Xiuyan saw that the guards accepted the broken silver, so he continued: "Isn't this about to be the day of our Li family's celebration in Ningzhou, thinking that the clansmen should drink some wine from other states, and also change some flavors in a timely manner." Therefore, the carriage is full of celebratory things. If it is at that time, Zhou Ye will have to appreciate his face. ”

Hearing that it was the birthday of the Li family in Ningzhou, the guard nodded, this time of year is the lively time of the Li family in Ningzhou, celebrating the establishment of a foothold in Ningzhou City for decades. And the day chosen, this is the day when the Li family in Ningzhou came to Ningzhou, which is of great significance to the Li family in Ningzhou. For the guards of these state gates, it is also the day when they fight the autumn wind.

But the guard waved his hand to the back, and immediately three guards came over, and the guard, known as Zhou Ye, said apologetically: "Ningzhou City has not been peaceful in recent days, and the state guard has already said that no matter who comes to Ningzhou City, you have to be interrogated, you don't see it." ”

Li Xiuyan asked his entourage to untie the carriage, and said generously: "Master Zhou, please do it, I have nothing to say." ”。

I saw the three guards walk towards the carriage, open a jar at random, sniff it, and then say, "Good wine." It seems that what Li Xiuyan said is true, it is indeed the wine he brought.

But Chen Xiangyuan frowned, it seems that things are not so simple.
