Chapter 452: The Ma Family Compound

If Sain Polo is not on the line of Juyongguan, then wouldn't it be a matter of reason for us to search for him here? Yang Muyun smiled bitterly.

"How do you know it's impossible yet?" Lin Mei'er winked at him and said, "Do you know the biggest difference between you and Lord Yu Qianyu?" ”

Yang Muyun was silent.

"It's the courage and responsibility to dare to act," Lin Meier said, "when everyone thinks it's impossible, and he can persevere." Since we first met Master Yu outside the Saiwai, which time has he not carried the heaviest burden? Don't you think it's remarkable that a civilian official who has never been on the battlefield can gather a team of tens of thousands of people and withdraw to the pass in a calm and orderly manner? Seeing that Yang Muyun opened his mouth and wanted to say something, he stopped his words and said: "Yes, I also admit that you also have a great credit for this, saving them in danger several times." But you only exist as a strange army, and you have to take care of the trip, camping, eating and drinking of more than 10,000 people...... And make sure that their morale doesn't collapse, I'm afraid it's not up to you, right? ”

"I think I appreciate you very much." Yang Muyun glanced at him and said.

"A man who can face adversity without exuding will be admired by anyone," Lin Meier said with a smile: "It's a pity that the adult is old, otherwise I would definitely marry him." ”

Yang Muyun's face froze when he heard the latter sentence, and he changed the topic, "Since you are so optimistic, how do you start to find Sain Polo now?" With the soldiers and horses of Changpingwei or Yanqingwei, turn this Yongguan City upside down? ”

"Do you still need you to join forces with them?" Lin Meier's eyes flickered, "Don't forget that we have always existed as a strange soldier, and this time is no exception." ”

"Then I'm going to ask General Lin for advice," Yang Muyun arched his hand to her, "How do you plan to use our strange army?" ”

"Don't forget that along the way, except for Lord Yu, including me, they all looked at you as the horse," Lin Mei'er kicked the ball he kicked back, "You are a big man, do you want to be that shrinking turtle this time?" ”

"But I don't know where to start!" Yang Muyun smiled bitterly and spread his hands, "If it weren't for this matter, I would have wanted to find out what bad behavior that leather merchant had." Later, he met Chu Mingxin, the owner of the Golden Thread Banner of the Guanyin Sect, and fought with her, but was rescued by the Dongying ninja with a knife......"

"Wait," Lin Mei'er interrupted him, "Do you think their appearance is necessarily related to the disappearance of Sain Polo?" ”

"This ......" Yang Muyun frowned, "That group of leather merchants is from outside the Guan, not from the direction of Jingshi. The Guanyin Sect doesn't know what conspiracy they want to instigate here......" raised his eyebrows and looked at Lin Mei'er, "You don't think that Sain Polo was hijacked by the Guanyin Sect, right?" What are they doing kidnapping a Tartar prince? ”

"Let me ask you, is Sain Polo going to Jingshi to reconcile with my Daming?" Lin Meier asked.

"That's nature," Yang Muyun said, "The Ming Dynasty needs a truce, and Sain Polo wants to elevate the status of the Pyrats on the grassland, and peace will be mutually beneficial." ”

"Okay, I'll ask you again," Lin Mei'er said again: "Da Ming and the reconciliation of the Peace, who is the most unwilling to see it?" ”

"The Great Khan of the Tartars is not able to take off," Yang Muyun replied without thinking about it: "The strength of the Khan's court is not as good as that of the Khan, relying only on the prestige of the Golden Family to envelop all the tribes of the grassland, if the prestige of the Khanate even overshadows the Khan's court, then the era of the Golden Family's rule over the grassland will be completely over." ”

"So the Khan court will definitely obstruct the reconciliation between Zarat and Daming, right?"

"Not bad."

"But when the Khan court learned the news, it was too late to send someone to my Ming Jingshi to kidnap Sain Polo," Lin Mei'er inferred: "What will you do if you don't spend money?" ”

"The Tartar Khan's court is bent on how to restore the former Great Yuan world," Yang Muyun pondered: "They must be inextricably linked with the rebel forces within my Ming Dynasty in private, if I don't get rid of it, I will ask these rebel forces to secretly rob Sain Polo, and then quietly send him back to the grassland." ”

"Then why didn't you kill him quietly?"

"This ......," Yang Muyun was taken aback, "this may not be nothing." ”

Lin Mei'er smiled slightly, "According to what you said, assuming that he was not killed, but was kidnapped, who would be the person who kidnapped him?" ”

"Hmm......" Yang Muyun thought for a moment and raised his eyebrows

said: "Could it be that someone from the Guanyin Sect did it?" When they were in the southern capital, they had kidnapped King Yu and Princess Yongqing to the deep mountains of Luzhou, and in Kaifeng, they had kidnapped King Zhou's family. It's not surprising that they do such things. ”

"That's it," the corners of Lin Mei'er's lips curled slightly, "Do you think it's a chance to meet Chu Mingxin here?" ”

"Are you saying that the Guanyin Sect kidnapped Sain Polo to Juyong Pass?" Yang Muyun felt a little incredible.

"I heard you say that Chu Mingxin is the banner master of the Guanyin Sect?"

"The Golden Flag."

"Then isn't her status in the Guanyin Sect low?" Lin Mei'er smiled, "She appeared in Juyong Pass in disguise, shouldn't it be for fun?" ”

"Of course not," Yang Muyun frowned, "It's a pity that I couldn't catch her, and I can't ask if I want to." ”

"Then let's try our luck in another place," Lin Mei'er's eyes flickered, "Maybe there will be an unexpected discovery?" ”

"Where?" Yang Muyun was puzzled.

"You're not so forgetful, are you?" Lin Mei'er's clear eyes rolled, "Aren't you going to use the news you bought from that little screamer for money?" ”

"Was this news useful?" Yang Muyun looked at her and said: "It's just a leather caravan from outside the Guan, as soon as it entered the customs, it lived in the home of the Yanqing Weima Commander, maybe it was a private merchant sent out by Lord Ma?" Master Yu said that let's find people, not cause more trouble. ”

"Just go and see, and don't be discovered." Lin Mei'er's eyes picked at him, "Can't you even do this with your and my martial arts?" ”

......

The market in Juyongguan is now full of officers and soldiers, they search from house to house, stop passers-by and compare their portraits, and for a time the city of Juyongguan is full of trouble, and the people are panicked. After the officers and soldiers of Changping Wei took over the east and west of Juyong Pass and closed the gate, they wanted to seal the city and prevent anyone from entering or leaving, but they could not stop the crowd of people, some of the caravans were supported by some dignitaries in Beijing, and some officials on business needed to go out and enter the customs, and they held the official voucher stamped with the big seal of the Yamen in Beijing in front of the officers and soldiers guarding the customs for a while, with a domineering attitude that you can't eat and walk around if you don't let me go, which gave great pressure to the officers and soldiers of the Changping Guard. Every time someone passes, they can't wait to strip him naked and take a closer look, which is much stricter than the original Yanqingwei.

Yang Muyun and Lin Meier asked the residence of the Ma commander, and went east along Gulou Street, and before they turned into Jiangtai Hutong, they saw a magnificent mansion from a distance, needless to say, this is the mansion of the Yanqing Weima commander. In front of the gate, a high flagpole is erected, and a flag waving in the wind is fluttering on the flagpole, and a big "horse" is written on it.

The vermilion lacquer gate, the door is inlaid with copper nails, two stone lions in front of the door handle the door, and there are two teams of officers and soldiers wearing armor and helmets on both sides of the door, holding waist knives in their hands, and there is a solemn atmosphere.

"A commander makes a big show," Yang Muyun said secretly in his heart: "This specification, the people who are chasing the Yamen of the Military Department and the Jinyi Guard are all commanding the envoys." ”

"It seems that this main gate is not easy to enter!" Yang Muyun whispered to Lin Meier.

"Then let's take a look around this house," Lin Mei'er whispered, "Let's see if there is a remote corner......

As they were whispering, they saw a small flag officer walking towards them.

"What do you guys do?" The little flag officer looked them up and down.

"Passerby." Yang Muyun replied with a smile.

"Passerby?" The little flag officer looked at them a few more times and waved his hand, "This road is not passable, you can find another way, right?" ”

"We've all come here, how troublesome it is to turn back," Yang Muyun said with a smiling face: "Master Jun will raise his noble hand, let's go over?" ”

"What's the fuss?" Xiaoqiguan raised his face, "If you don't get out, be careful that Lao Tzu will arrest you." ”

Yang Muyun was about to say more, when Lin Mei'er pulled the corner of his clothes, "Brother, it seems that we are going the wrong way, let's go back!" ”

As soon as the two of them turned around, they heard a burst of footsteps with tom tom, and when they looked up, they saw a group of officers and soldiers of the Changping Guard rushing over with knives and spears. The little flag officer couldn't care about them anymore, and stepped forward and shouted, "Stop! ”

The group of Changping guards and soldiers ignored him and rushed straight to him.

"Get out of the way," an officer glanced at the little flag officer, "Lao Tzu wants to search for the prisoner!" ”

"You are blind," said the little flag officer angrily, "this is."

We command the mansion of Lord Ma, and you dare to go wild? ”

"By Shangfeng's order," the officer shouted with a bulging chest, "all places in the city of Juyong Pass must be searched, and if there is any disobedience, they will all be taken!" As soon as he said that, the officers and soldiers behind rushed forward with swords and guns.

"What are you going to do?" The little flag officer's face changed, he took a few steps back, and shouted: "Someone-"

The officers and soldiers in front of the gate gathered together.

"Are you going to disobey?" The officer said with a wide pair of eyes.

"Our Lord Ma also has an order," the little flag officer's eyes were bigger than his, "no one is allowed to approach here, and if there is any disobedience, it will be dealt with according to military law." ”

"It's just that you Changping guards' people will close the door," a soldier behind him seemed to puff up his stomach, "Don't you even let go of Lord Ma's residence?" ”

"Don't look up at what this place is?" Another soldier pulled out half of his sword, "You can also come to spread the wilderness, if you don't get out, don't blame us for being rude." ”

"It's the other way around," the officer yelled, "brothers, these Yanqingwei rabbit cubs are demonstrating with us!" What shall we do? ”

"Beat him up!" A Changping guard said and punched a Yanqing guard in the chest, hitting him so hard that he almost didn't fall.

"Changpingwei's people have done it!" I don't know who shouted, and the people facing each other on both sides immediately blew up the pot and immediately threw themselves together and scuffled.

Seeing them fighting, Yang Muyun couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

"Fool, what to see, go wow!" Lin Mei'er pulled his sleeve and said angrily: "Such a good opportunity, let's not hurry over." The two took advantage of the chaos to slip into the depths of the alley.

......

"The mansion where this horse commander lives is really big," Yang Muyun ran around the wall and sighed, "Compared to the Chengguo Mansion, it doesn't seem to be much smaller." Stopping in a corner of a wall that looked more secluded, he turned to Lin Meier and said, "How does this place look?" ”

"Well," Lin Mei'er stepped forward, listened with her ear against the wall, made sure there was no sound inside, and nodded to Yang Muyun, "That's it, I'll go up first, if it's okay, then you come up again." Saying that, he looked up, the courtyard wall of the Ma family house was very high, about more than a zhang, stretched out his slender fingers and buckled the crack in the wall, and his feet were lightly touched on the ground, and his slender body rose into the air seven or eight feet high, holding the wall with both hands and slowly raising his body to look into the courtyard.

"How?" Yang Muyun felt a little nervous for her.

Lin Mei'er didn't speak, she gently climbed the wall, lowered her body and stretched out her arm to Yang Muyun and nodded.

Yang Muyun held his breath, jumped up with his whole body full of breath, jumped up about seven or eight feet high, his toes were a little on the wall, and he jumped up three or four feet and landed steadily on the wall. As far as the eye can see, this should be a garden in Mafu, with some plum trees growing on the snow, and the yellow and pink plum blossoms blooming in winter, which is very eye-catching. A stream of living water flowed around the garden, not frozen, and there were still some fish playing in the water. In addition, there is a corner pavilion, a wooden bridge and some craggy rocks.

Yang Muyun and Lin Mei'er glanced at each other, and jumped down at the same time, without making a sound when they touched the ground.

"Where is this going from?" The two of them were thinking about it when they suddenly heard a burst of words. There were very few places to hide in the garden where the vegetation was dry in winter, and the two of them did not have time to think about it, so they hid behind a strange rock.

The footsteps are small, not like a man.

Yang Muyun secretly looked, but saw the figures of two women walking into the garden.

The first one was a noblewoman of about forty years old, full of pearls, wearing a brown-red fox fur coat, dressed in a noble manner, followed by a fifteen or sixteen-year-old maid, with two double buns on her hair, and a green cotton dress.

The lady walked into the pavilion and looked at the plum blossoms in the garden without saying a word.

"Ma'am," said the maid in a whisper, stepping forward, "would you like to sit down and rest?" As he spoke, he spread a thick brocade mat on the stone pier in the pavilion.

The lady sighed and said, "Hasn't the master come here yet?" ”
