248 treacherous clouds, Qin sent out on patrol

"Shopkeeper, have there been any new people living in the store recently?"

The young official came to stand still in front of the shopkeeper, and asked him as he looked at the inn.

The border city was in turmoil, the people were miserable, the Son of Heaven sat high above the court, and there were people who were deliberately blocking the audio-visual, so that the Son of Heaven in Kyoto did not know the situation of this city.

Ten days ago, Lord Bao received news that there had been a great chaos in the city recently, and a group of officials had taken the opportunity to exploit the people, making the people's livelihood miserable and the people resentful.

When Lord Bao learned of this, he immediately reported the matter to the emperor. When the emperor learned of this, he was furious, and immediately ordered Lord Bao to be Lord Qincha, and went to the border city to investigate the case, and he must wipe out the corrupt officials and corrupt officials of the common people!

The imperial court, what it is most afraid of is that when the world is in turmoil, there will be a group of corrupt officials who are common people and fill their pockets. When the time comes, the external troubles will not be settled, and the internal worries will arise again, won't it be a headache?

The emperor is a wise man, so he naturally knows how powerful this is. In order to appease the people at the border pass, return the country to a clear state, and in order to boost the morale of the soldiers at the border pass, the emperor sent his most relied on courtier, the best good official in the eyes of the people, Lord Bao Zhengbao, to come to the border pass, thoroughly investigate the case, and act cheaply.

On the day of the decree, Lord Bao Zhengbao immediately went to the border and is now staying in the post house.

On the way, Wang Anwang's guards risked their lives to find out a piece of news. It is said that Feng Yan, the general of the enemy country, was arrested in Bian State three days ago, and by chance, he fell into the hands of a team of officers and soldiers.

However, just as the officers and soldiers were about to escort him back, he wounded the officers and soldiers and fled.

Feng Yan was a belligerent faction of the Cangdi Kingdom, urging their Majesty to send troops to the Bian Kingdom. And the reason why he appeared in Bian Guo this time is that he is likely to contact several other countries and form an alliance to deal with Bian Guo together. To go to those countries. It is bound to pass through Bian Guo.

In order to show the sincerity of their Cangdi Kingdom, the general Feng Yan tried his best to promote this matter, so he went in person.

Unexpectedly, there was an accident on the way back. He was bitten by a snake, poisoned, and finally inexplicably caught by a group of officers and soldiers, who saw the eagle's head on his chest and knew that he was from Cangdi. So he arrested him as a spy.

At that time, they didn't know his true identity, so he kept silent. Not a word of speech. But he knew that when these people took him back to meet their master, his identity would be revealed sooner or later. However, once his identity is revealed, then he is finished. So he pretended to be in decline and obediently walked with them for two days. Two days later, they let their guard down on him, and he took the opportunity to wound two officers and soldiers who were watching him and escaped.

However, he left the jade pendant he was carrying there, which was a hidden danger. When Feng Yan found out that his jade pendant was lost, he wanted to go back and retrieve it. It's too late.

That jade pendant is important, but now, it is the most important thing that he can return to China alive. This will surely reach their upper peak soon. When the time comes, his true identity will be revealed, the city gate will be under martial law, and the officers and soldiers will search for him in the city, if he wants to get out of the city smoothly, it will be difficult!

As long as he can keep this life. That jade pendant, there is still a chance to get it back. Saying goes. Stay in the green mountains, don't worry about no firewood. As long as he is alive, there will always be a chance for what he is trying to do.

This matter was soon known to Lord Bao, and the jade pendant was also handed over to Lord Bao. Master Bao got the jade pendant, and guessed his true identity from the unique owl mark of the Cangdi Feng family on the jade pendant, as well as the eagle head on Feng Yan's chest.

Knowing this, Mr. Bao didn't know whether to be surprised or happy, happy or worried.

Feng Yan is in the territory of Bian State, as long as he is caught, it will be very beneficial to the war at the border pass. The Feng family is in Cangdi and has an extraordinary status. And this Feng Yan is the future heir of the Feng family, and the life and death of this person is really related to the fate of too many people.

But Lord Bao was worried again, Feng Yan suddenly appeared in Bian Guo, which was definitely not accidental. Behind him, there must be some huge conspiracy brewing.

And there is no doubt that this conspiracy must be aimed at Bian Guo. What exactly the conspiracy was, it is not yet known. The plan for today is to find out Feng Yan. As long as Feng Yan is found out and he finds a way to pry his mouth open, then many things will be known.

Lord Bao expected that Na Feng Yan had not left the city at this time, and it was too late in time, so he immediately ordered martial law in the whole city, and the city gate was closed, and no one could leave the city within three days. If you want to go out of the city, unless you get permission from the government, and a document.

On the other hand, Lord Bao sent out all the men and horses of the post house, as well as the people of the official yamen, led by Lord Bao's personal guard Zhan Yang, to search the whole city and be sure to catch Feng Yan.

This is the reason why there are officers and soldiers who come to the door before dawn, not because the original officials and masters want to find an excuse to collect the people's silver taels, but because they want to find Cangdi's spies.

The shopkeeper didn't know what was going on, but when he saw such a big battle, he didn't dare to be ambiguous, and hurriedly bowed down and said: "This official, the small shop hasn't lived in any new people recently~~" Although the store is a little weak-hearted, after all, he has been rolling in this line for so many years, and this psychological quality is still there.

But just as he raised his head to look at the official, he couldn't help but be stunned. For the man's eagle-sharp eyes were staring at him, as if to know whether what he said was true or false.

Zhan Yang stared at the shop for a long time, and suddenly took out a portrait from his arms.

"Shopkeeper, have you seen the person in the portrait?"

The portrait shows a man with a knife in his eyes and a resolute face, and his face is very recognizable, because under his left eye, there is a black mole. This mole does not grow big, and it does not affect the appearance, but the position of the mole is a little peculiar, and it is matched with such a face, so it is very distinctive. If you are a little careful, if you have seen such a man, you will definitely recognize it.

However, presumably that Feng Yan must also know this unique mark on his face. When running for his life, he will never show that mole.

This mole is his trademark. In Cangdi, everyone sees a mole under his left eye, and with his natural might, it is possible to guess his identity. But at this moment, this mole is more like a deadly mole-

However, even if Feng Yan hid the mole at this time, people who had seen him before could still provide some clues. As long as he doesn't leave for a day, he will always leave traces. Besides, a mole like that can't be hidden just by trying to.

The most important thing is that there are still some differences between the Cangdi people and the Bian people, although it does not affect the communication, but the emphasis and tail sound of the speech are different. As long as you have spoken to the Cangdi people, or have heard them speak, you will definitely be able to find the difference.

That Feng Yan, unless he doesn't open his mouth, as long as he opens his mouth, plus that face, he will definitely expose his tracks.

The shopkeeper took a closer look at the portrait and shook his head, "No...... No...... There is no such person. The shopkeeper became more and more sure that he had a good memory, and if he had actually met this man, he would have remembered it.

"Shopkeeper, we have to go upstairs to have a look, isn't it convenient?"

"Of course, of course it's convenient, the official please~~" The store was still a little surprised, when the official was going to inspect in the past, he rushed in directly with someone, and then waved a knife in the house slashing and stabbing and stabbing things, making a mess of things. And this official's attitude is really good.

The shopkeeper was worried that these people were looking for trouble, so he was so frightened that he quickly got the girl away. Now I know that they didn't come here for this purpose at all.

Fortunately, the girl is also gone, and there are no people in this inn, and these officials can't find anything even if they want to, and they are not afraid of any other trouble.

The shopkeeper walked at the front and led Zhan Yang upstairs.

looked at them one by one, checked them one by one, and finally came to the inn where Li Banxia stayed last night.

As soon as Zhan Yang entered, he found that there was still heat in this room, and he concluded that there was still a person living in this room before, and that the person had just left.

Zhan Yang entered the room, came to the table and stood still, looking at the shopkeeper who had just entered the room.

The shopkeeper entered this room, saw the messy quilt, and the official's face, and secretly said that it was not good. But then he thought about it, if the man really asked, he said that this room was his residence, and the official must have nothing to say.

"Shopkeeper, who stayed in this room last night?"

"Yes......"

"Don't tell me you're staying by yourself, I can feel that this room was occupied by a woman last night." The smell of a woman's body is different from that of a man, and this can be smelled by anyone who has a nose. The most important thing is that this room, both furnished and furnished, is not a room for a man.

Besides, this is the best guest room in the inn, and the shopkeeper has his own room, so why should he stay in a guest room? It would be strange to say that he was doing it for enjoyment. One of the hosts living in the guest room, how strange it sounds. Not only did they sound strange, but the shopkeeper himself must have thought it was strange.

"I ......" the shopkeeper was so frightened that he was at a loss, this young official was really powerful. Especially when his eyes are staring at him, his heart can't help but feel nervous.

No matter who you are, in the face of such a pair of eyes, you will never dare to lie. Even if he wanted to lie, I am afraid that he would not be able to deceive him.

Zhan Yang was waiting, this matter might not have anything to do with Feng Yan's matter. But since he is here to investigate the case, he will not let go of a trace -
