If Qi Yan took advantage of the civil strife in Southern Qin and the time when the water was in dire straits, to disturb the border, then Southern Qin would really have internal and external troubles, which would make matters worse.

Xie Yunji can guard against Qi Yanqing in advance, and with the sophisticated hidden guard given to him by her mother Xie Feng, with one enemy and one hundred, then Qi Yanqing will be constrained, and he will not succeed easily.

Xie Mohan listened to Xie Yunji's arrangement, fell down the big stone in his heart, his calm heart finally relaxed a little, and asked Xie Yunji, "So, you didn't bring back any of the hidden guards that your aunt gave you?" From the border of Mobei to Lin'an City, along the way, you are alone? Since the uncle of the Xie Clan's salt warehouse knew that you were taken away by Qi Yunxue, he had all set out to look for you, could you talk to them? Met? ”

"It's not me, there's another person, Yan Ting came back with me." Xie Yun continued, "Xie's salt warehouse has raised me for many years, and he has been kind to me like a mountain, although I went to Northern Qi once, but I can't give up Xie's salt warehouse and ignore it." After getting rid of Qi Yunxue, he sent a message to them. Now the people of the Xie Salt Warehouse are with the old marquis. ”

"Yan Ting is back?" Xie Mohan was stunned.

"Well, it's back!" Xie Yunji nodded, "When he left the capital of Nanqin at that time, he had nowhere to vent the long-standing depression in the Yongkang Hou Mansion, and his sister Simu Fanghua had no avail, so he made the decision to stay away from Nanqin." Although Sister Fanghua couldn't give him affection, she helped him get rid of the Yongkang Marquis Mansion and the royal guards, as well as the encirclement and interception of the Fan Yang Lu clan, and asked Yan Chen to escort him all the way to Northern Qi. I have been staying in the Northern Qi Xiaoguo Uncle's Mansion, I have to say that Yan Chen's means are extremely powerful, although he is not in the Northern Qi Imperial City, but he sent people to protect him in the Northern Qi Imperial City, even if the old man and the people of the Yu family know that he is the Yan Xiaohou of the Yongkang Marquis Mansion of Southern Qin, they also pretend not to know, and go to the streets, no one can help him. He got rid of the Yongkang Marquis Mansion and lived very comfortably in Northern Qi. ”

Xie Mohan sighed when he heard this, "Yan Ting's temperament was originally refreshing, he has been friends with Qin Zheng since he was a child, and he has also been dyed with Qin Zheng's somewhat free personality, the two of them are in one place, and they generally have similar temperaments, but I didn't expect that they both liked their sister, so they made their brothers centrifuge, it's really ......."

Xie Yunji sighed when he heard this, "It was precisely because he heard about the Holy Decree that he couldn't stay in the capital of Northern Qi and came back." ”

Xie Mohan was taken aback, "He's been gone for more than half a year, hasn't he given up on his sister?" ”

"I don't know. Anyway, I heard that Sister Fanghua was divorced by the Holy Decree, and he whipped the horsewhip loudly, I thought that my riding skills were superb, and my martial arts were higher than him, but I didn't catch up with him. After arriving at the Mobei border, I was arranging things, and he didn't wait for me, so he hurried away. I followed after me, but I didn't see a single figure along the way. Xie Yun continued.

"So, he came back before you? In that case, where did he go? Have you returned to the capital? Xie Mohan said, shaking his head, "That's not right, if you go back to the capital, Lin'an City is a must-go place, now that Lin'an City is plagued, the four cities are closed, and there is no customs clearance, how can he return to the capital?" ”

Xie Yunji blinked, "What he cares about is Sister Fanghua, maybe he didn't come to Ancheng, he just looked for her." ”

"Looking for a sister?" Xie Mohan was stunned and puzzled, "What is he going to look for?" I can't even contact my sister, to contact my sister, I need to rely on Yan Chen, how can he contact my sister? ”

"You forgot that he was taken by Yan Chen to the uncle of the small country of Northern Qi, and now that Yan Chen has also left Lin'an City, he and Yan Chen should be able to get in touch. If you contact Shang Yanchen, won't you contact Sister Fanghua? Xie Yun continued.

"Yes." Xie Mohan nodded, "But Yan Chen has now led the forces behind him to leave Lin'an City and go to find his sister, this trip is really dangerous, he can let Yan Ting go to danger?" I'm afraid my sister doesn't agree. ”

"What the are you doing with so much heart? You are not old, like a little old man, worrying every day, no wonder your body and bones can't be raised. Xie Yunji yawned and waved his hand disapplausively, "I've been running all the way, I'm sleepy, if you don't have anything else to do, let me sleep first." ”

When Xie Mohan heard this, he saw Xie Yunji's blue eyes, so he could only give up and stand up, "Then you can sleep, I'll call you for dinner." ”

"As long as there are no more accidents in this city, there is no need to call me, I will not eat dinner." Xie Yunji got up, yawned, and entered the inner room.

Xie Yunlan was helpless, walked out of the room, and returned to his room next door.

Hearing this, he followed behind Xie Mohan and asked in a low voice, "Master Hou, is Master Yan really back?" ”

"Well, I'm back." Xie Mohan knew that Tingyan was guarding the door and listened to the conversation between him and Xie Yunji, but although Tingyan was protected too well by Qin Zheng and didn't have much ability, it was because he had been by Qin Zheng's side since he was a child, otherwise, he would look unreliable about the mouth, but he could still hide it tightly and would not expose it at will.

Hearing this, he scratched his head and said depressedly, "Little Lord and Miss Fanghua are like this now, and Little Marquis Yan will take the opportunity to come back." I'm really going to find time. Miss Fanghua obviously doesn't like him, what is he doing when he comes back? Do you want to snatch the young lady? What about the little prince. ”

Xie Mohan said helplessly when he heard this, "Yan Ting hurried back because he cared about his sister, and he didn't necessarily give up on his sister." Besides, is Qin Zheng the kind of person who allows others to rob him? Unless she and her sister are really irretrievable, ...... Let's see what happens. ”

Hearing this, he breathed a sigh of relief, "That's fine." ”

"You're worried too." Xie Mohan was amused and waved at him, "Go and ask the county lord if he is awake?" Can it be a hindrance? ”

Hearing this, he nodded and ran out.

Xie Mohan leaned on the soft couch, rubbed his forehead tiredly, closed his eyes, and rested for a while.

After a while, he ran back after hearing the words, and said to Xie Mohan, "Master Hou, the county lord has not woken up yet, the four of Pinzhu listened to your orders, watched carefully, and said that when they woke up, they would definitely send someone to tell you that there was no fever, so you can rest assured." ”

Xie Mohan nodded and waved his hand at Tingyan.

Hearing that he was also tired, he withdrew from the room and stopped bothering her.

The afterglow of the setting sun penetrated through the window and shone into Xie Mohan's room, although he closed his eyes and rested, the gloom and worry between his eyebrows could not be dissolved.

Naturally, what he was most worried about was Xie Fanghua.

In the next room, after Xie Yun heard that Xie Mohan's room was silent, he came to the window lightly, opened the window, and looked out, there was no one in the courtyard, he gently jumped out of the window, and as soon as his toes touched the ground, he waved his hand and closed the window silently.

Xie Mohan brought out the Houfu hidden guards from the capital since the epidemic in Lin'an City, looking for black purple grass, they were all sent out, leaving only the close secret guard Yunye who never left him. It's just that when it's not a life-threatening matter, Xie Mohan never needs him to appear in front of people.

But just because he doesn't show up doesn't mean he's not there.

Therefore, as soon as Xie Yunji jumped out of the wall, he appeared in front of Xie Mohan's window and shouted, "Master Hou." ”

Xie Mohan immediately opened his eyes, he clearly knew that his close guard Yun Ye did not have extremely important things, and he would not show up easily. And now it is an ordinary juncture, at such a time, there is a wind and grass, it is a big event, and it must be more important to alarm him to appear. He immediately asked, "Yunye, but what happened?" ”

Yun Ye said in a low voice, "Yun Jigongzi just quietly walked out of the courtyard, I don't know where he went, should his subordinates stop him, or let him go?" ”

Xie Mo was stunned, "Yun Ji quietly left the courtyard?" ”

"Yes!"

Xie Mohan lowered his head and pondered, and suddenly, "When he first arrived in Lin'an City, he heard that I said that Yan Chen led the people behind him to leave to find his sister, so he was a little tempted and wanted to chase after him, but I stopped him." Now he should still not be able to stay and go to join in the fun. Afraid that I would stop me, I slipped away quietly by being tired and going to sleep. ”

Yun Ye was silent.

Xie Mohan thought for a while, and then said, "The Xie family has its own set of tracking techniques, grandpa and the uncle of the Xie family's salt warehouse brought Yun Ji back from the Northern Qi Dynasty, and they also carefully discussed how to cultivate it, and later, it was decided to cultivate according to the rules of the heirs of the Xie family's salt warehouse, what will happen in the future, whether to return to the Northern Qi Dynasty, or can stay in the Xie family's salt warehouse, and see him make his own decisions." As the heir cultivated by the Xie clan's salt warehouse, if he wanted to trace Yan Chen's traces, he must not be unable to trace the traces. After all, not only did Yan Chen leave Lin'an City, but he also led away a large number of people, and there were always people who would leave traces. ”

Yun Ye was still silent.

Xie Mohan pondered for a moment, and then said, "Yunye, you go to chase Yun Ji, not to stop him, but to chase behind him to see how it changes." If there is danger, it is better to stop one or two. It's best if he can find his sister and you can be a helper. ”

Yun Ye shook his head, "Master Hou, my subordinates have never left your side, at the beginning, Old Master Hou asked me to remember that at any time, I can't leave your side." ”

"This time, that time." Xie Mohan said, "Grandpa doesn't want his sister to have an accident, and in addition, if Lin'an City passes through the city gate during the day, there should be no more incidents." After all, people have been led away by Yan Chen. ”

Yun Ye still shook his head and stood still, "I can listen to the orders of the Hou Ye for other things, but I can't leave you around." Especially now that you are dyed with black comfrey, if there is no black comfrey tomorrow, I must take you out of the city to find black comfrey as a last resort. ”

Xie Mohan sighed, "In this way, let's discuss, there shouldn't be anything more in Lin'an City tonight, you catch up with Yunji first, and before dawn, just rush back to me." You can rest assured, according to the current situation, there is no one in Lin'an City, and I will definitely be fine. ”

Yun Ye still shook his head, and he didn't move.

Xie Mohan was helpless and waved his hand, "Forget it, let Yun Ji go by himself, don't worry about him." ”

Yun Ye saw that Xie Mohan no longer supported him, so he bowed his head and retreated.

At ten o'clock in the night, Lin'an City is very quiet.

After Xie Yun was discharged from the hospital, he went straight to the city gate, and the four people, including Shi Hua, Shi Mo, Shi Lan, and Shi Wan, had already urged and arranged for people to clean up the blood stains at the city gate. Just as he was about to go back, he saw Xie Yunji appear at the city gate.

The four of them hurriedly saluted him.

Xie Yunji sighed, hid in the shadows, and beckoned to the four of them.

The four of them were puzzled and approached him suspiciously.

Xie Yunji waited for the four of them to approach, and whispered to them, "I want to go out of the city to welcome Sister Fanghua, and the four of you will guard Lin'an City." After a pause, he added, "But according to my estimate, there should be no one making trouble in Lin'an City tonight, you should go to bed and be vigilant." ”

"You're going to greet Miss?" The four of them were taken aback, "Do you have the whereabouts of my young lady?" ”

Xie Yunji shook his head, "No, but I just took a turn around the Four City Gates, and I have already found some traces, and if I follow them along the way, I will definitely gain something." First of all, I will come and tell you, is not tomorrow the last day of the plague? Since Fanghua is looking for black comfrey, with her means, she can always bring it back. Before that, in addition to being optimistic about Lin'an City, you should protect Xie Mohan and don't let him have an accident. ”

The four of them nodded, "You left the city to find Miss, are you hiding it from Master Hou?" ”

"What are the little girls doing so smart!" Xie Yunji said, took out the wall climbing rope, and jumped off the city wall with a "whoosh".

The four of them went to see the painting and the ink, and saw that Xie Yunji used the climbing rope to go down the city wall very neatly, but after a while, he went out of the city, and gradually, the figure walked away and went to the northwest.

Because of the special geographical location, Lin'an City is surrounded by mountains on one side and is called Jiuqu Mountain. One side around the water, called Jiuqu water. Whether it is by land or by water, it extends in all directions, and the advantage of convenient transportation is that it has created the rapid reproduction of Lin'an City since the founding of the Southern Qin Dynasty, and it is very prosperous, so it has become the main road for trade and politics between the north and the south.

Therefore, the general city is only inhabited by tens of thousands of people, and the flow of people living in Lin'an City is more than 100,000.

The reason why it is said that the traffic in Nanqin extends in all directions, is because, even if the northwest mountains are surrounded, it is not as steep as the mountains in other places, and it is difficult for pedestrians to fly, but it is a nine-curved intestine, twisting and turning, there are many mountain roads, and all directions are smooth.

These mountain roads have one thing in common, that is, they are only in the northwest of Lin'an City, and they all connect with Lin'an City. In other words, there is no road, you can come to Lin'an City.

Even the Jiuqu Mountain in the northwest corresponds to the Jiuqu water in the southwest at the same time. Both land and water are suitable.

Occupying this terrain is also one of the reasons why Yan Chen decided to lure the forces behind him out of Lin'an City. In such a place, you can do many things that you can't do in Lin'an City.

The enemy is in the dark, and I am in the light, and I am not as good as the enemy in the light, and I am in the dark.

After Xie Yun found the trace, he followed the trail and went to Jiuqu Mountain.
