Team Leader Qiu asked, "When you were defeated in the Southern Wilderness and fled into the deep mountains and dense forests, who gathered you?" ”

"It was Ma Zhifei, he first found me, claiming to be an important person in the Lingnan Palace, and specially took out a gold medal from a palace envoy to show me, saying that his old man was willing to take us in, and provide food, so that we have a hiding place, at that time, we have been beaten into a frightened bow, panic all day, I heard that someone is willing to protect our safety, and provide food, there is only one condition, that is, to be his mercenary, in order to save my life, I agreed, after a few months, I found two more commanders, Gather 3,000 people and horses, hide in the dense forest during the day to rest, march in a hurry at night, more than ten days later, only to come to the Duanzhou military camp, Ma Zhifei also sent someone to teach us to speak the local dialect, but unfortunately the region is different, the voice always has our dialect there, speaking nondescript, and then simply stopped teaching! ”

The commander confessed to all, and by this time, the flame of hope had already been extinguished, and he lived day by day, telling the truth, and saving himself from suffering from flesh and skin.

A brocade guard who knew how to write and ink was in charge of recording his confession, and asked him to draw a charge, and then folded it and hid it in his arms, in case the commander was killed on the way and lost the evidence.

Fang Lei said: "Without further ado, after dinner tomorrow morning, I will take someone to send you out of the Duanzhou area and go straight to the capital, you can rest now!" ”

As he spoke, he walked out of the hall along the tunnel, closed the stone door, came out of the tunnel at the top of the village, returned to his guest room, took off his night clothes, and lay on the bed to sleep.

Early in the morning, Fang Lei and Yi Wei brought breakfast to the basement, and the cook helped carry down the prepared pancakes and let them satisfy their hunger on the road.

After a few people had breakfast, Fang Lei asked them all to change into the clothes of the disciples of Qingfeng Village, and the deputy owner of the village, Yi Weicai, opened the stone gate at the entrance of the tunnel, sent them out, and then turned back to go in, closed the stone door, and went to the top of the village from the entrance of the tunnel.

At this time, there were already three big carriages outside, and more than a dozen special combat personnel with the highest martial arts skills were waiting, and Team Leader Qiu saw that there were so few people escorting, and asked worriedly: "It's only a dozen people escorting, okay?" ”

Fang Lei smiled: "Don't worry! These are the highest disciples of Qingfeng Village's martial arts, this is clear, there are dozens of disciples in the secret all the way to protect, in case of emergency, they will first clear the obstacles, and then, the thief is in charge, the liaison officer and the commander of the Lingnan King, sitting in three carriages, you Jinyi Wei two protect one person, and our team members are responsible for the fighting! ”

Team Leader Qiu said with satisfaction: "Such protective measures can indeed be reassuring!" ”

When he said that, he arranged the thief boss in the first carriage and sent two Jinyi guards to protect him, and arranged the liaison officer of the Lingnan King in the second carriage, so that the two Jinyi guards could protect him closely, only the commander of the thousand guards, he decided to stay by his side and protect him with another Jinyi guard. Because of the robbery of the official salt case, the emperor had already heard about it, and he just sent them down to implement it, even if both of them were killed, with the gold medal testimony of the palace, the confession of the thief boss and the liaison officer, and the twists and turns of Xu Zhixian, the ironclad evidence is like a mountain, and the emperor does not believe it. However, it is difficult to make the emperor believe that he dares to do this, the king of Lingnan is surnamed Ma, not only has the same surname as the queen, but also has a distant relative, and there is no conclusive evidence, the emperor will not treat him for capital crimes, fortunately, Queen Ma is generally knowledgeable, sensible, and the emperor has only been on the throne for more than ten years, at the beginning of the founding of the country, the country has not been consolidated, if the king of Lingnan dares to tolerate the remnants of the previous dynasty and shake the country, he is a brother, in order to keep the country forever, Queen Ma will never tolerate adultery, Therefore, it is necessary to protect this witness, if it is only based on the confession that has been drawn, it is not enough.

Fang Lei knew what was going on, so he also sat in the third carriage, closely watching the movements around him, and immediately attacked as soon as there was a disturbance, so that the enemy had no chance to get close to the carriage.

Maybe the secret organization did not receive Ma Zhifei's instructions, or maybe the king of Lingnan had not received the dangerous information, and he did not find anything abnormal along the way.

Team Leader Qiu felt that Fang Lei had a stunt, and he had an idea: If he can receive him under his command, it would be the best, if he goes out to do anything in the future, he can complete the task excellently, and he will definitely be appreciated by the emperor.

So he said: "Young Master Fang! You have outstanding martial arts and wisdom, why don't you return to Jinling with me, and I will guarantee that you will also be a brocade guard and serve the country? ”

Fang Lei said lightly: "Team Leader Qiu! I saw that you are a righteous person, worthy of association, so I did my best to help you, don't you know, I was originally a businessman, entrusted by Quzhi County, Qingshan County, looking for the king of Lingnan to collude with river bandits, rob the official salt, and then monopolize the salt market, sell at a high price, make huge profits, and then use ill-gotten wealth to raise mercenaries, the evidence of self-respect, only to come to Qingfeng Village, involved in the turmoil of the struggle against the king of Lingnan, and so on to bring down the king of Lingnan, exterminate the Flying Eagle Gang, I will restore the identity of a businessman, do a good job in my business! ”

He didn't dare to say anything about the business of opening a medicinal restaurant, in case the emperor knew that the immortal medicine valley had an immortal medicine to slow down aging, and the old man in his three hundred years old was as energetic as a young man in his twenties, and after Queen Ma knew that there was an immortal medicine for beauty and beauty, and eternal youth, she would not list the immortal medicine valley as a royal forbidden land, only for the use of royal relatives, then wouldn't the common people be usurped for the right to use?

After all, Team Leader Qiu was born as a chivalrous man in the rivers and lakes, not the kind of treacherous villain who is extremely possessive, and he didn't dare to impose his ideas on others, so he couldn't persuade him, so he had to say: "The so-called people have their own ambitions, since Fang Gongzi is a businessman, this group will not force it!" ”

Fang Lei said: "Team Leader Qiu! In front of the emperor, don't mention that I assisted you in solving the case, a few of you are sure to solve it, don't reveal my identity, if there is a tricky case in the future, I will help you, if I leak my true identity, then I'm sorry, I can predict the future, when you want to ask me for help, stay away, so that you can never find it, I am a person of my word, what I said counts, you must remember! ”
