In the middle of the night.

A black shadow crossed into the East Factory, entered the front hall and pulled down the black cloth covering his face, and bowed down on one knee:

"His subordinate Shi Lei returned from Nanyuan and came to report to the overseer."

Leng Qingtang turned around with his hands, and his figure was reversed in the Yingying candle flame, and his phoenix eyes fell on the face of the young Junfang of the new ten-stop head, and he was full of brilliance:

"Something you see?"

Shi Lei's expression was solemn, and his tone was firm:

"See, my subordinates are fortunate to live up to their mission, and the ingredients have been mixed."

Leng Qingtang nodded with satisfaction:

"It's been a hard work, go down."

"Yes."

The black image reflected in his pupils gradually faded out, and Leng Qingtang retracted his gaze, his eyes chilling thoughtfully.

Before long, Qing'er broke in, her round face was covered with tears, and she was holding a jade flute in her hand:

"Overseer...... The overseer is not good, girl, she has left the East Factory......"

A trace of light swept through Qingrin's eyes, looking at the shining piccolo fixedly, Leng Qingtang supported Qing'er unhurriedly, and said with a calm expression:

"When? Don't worry, make things clear. ”

"The subordinates were worried that the girl's wound was painful and she couldn't sleep well, so she just went to her room to deliver some supper, but she didn't expect that she was not in it at all, and the bedding was also cold, so she should have been gone for a long time. It's something she put at the head of the bed, and I think it's for you. ”

Qing'er handed the flute to Leng Qingtang, Leng Qingtang walked under the candlelight and looked at it repeatedly, and finally found that the object that made him recognize her identity that night was actually a rare hidden weapon.

Quickly returning to his room in the small courtyard, the parchment fruit that was deliberately left on the table disappeared, Leng Qingtang knew that the overall situation was basically under control in his palm, and then said to Qing'er:

"Don't worry, Yunxi has something to do and leave for a while, this governor knows where she is, and she will pick it up if she wants to. Don't cry, pay attention to the worries of Xiao Shen, and go to call the big stall head to come back to the palace with the governor. ”

Qing'er wiped away her tears and promised to leave the Overseer's house.

……

Gu Yunxi took advantage of the faint moonlight to jump all the way up, crossed the high eaves of the heavy roof tiles, and gradually moved away from the East Factory.

I had talked to Leng Qingtang before, and when she heard him say that the Kunhuang Island map was in Dongchang, she immediately thought that this map would bring him endless trouble.

While Leng Qingtang went to the front hall, Gu Yunxi sneaked into his room to steal the treasure map, and then quietly escaped from the East Factory.

She didn't mean to betray the Overseer again, but because of the masked man's secret identity and martial prowess, she didn't want the Overseer to get into any trouble because of her and because of the ominous island map.

What's more, the search for the map was originally the mission sent to her by the masked man, and now that the map is in hand, she is determined to fight to the death of the fish and go back to make a complete break with the ruthless person.

Halfway to the Hidden Mountain, he was stopped by a group of people, and the masked woman led by him shouted:

"Tu Duxue, hand over the Kunhuang Island map!"

"Is that you?"

Hearing that the voice of the comer was no different from his own, Gu Yunxi's eyes were cold, and he took a step back and responded:

"Don't think! Except Your Excellency, no one will try to take the treasure map from me! ”

The woman's eyes were piercing, and she said in a deep voice:

"Dreaming, Your Excellency doesn't want to see you again, so he ordered me to clean up the portal!"

raised his wrist to make a gesture, and his subordinates rushed up and fought fiercely with Gu Yunxi.

Gu Yunxi has no blades in his hands, but his fists and feet are very good, even if he has a wound on his shoulder, he is blessed by internal force, and he will not suffer a loss if he supports the confrontation with the opponent in a short period of time.

But gradually, she felt that her heart was becoming more and more empty, her limbs were weak and weak, and her body was crooked and she lay on the ground, shaking uncontrollably.

"Hehe, she's addicted to drugs."

The masked woman laughed, tapped her toes and approached Gu Yunxi, raised her leg and kicked her over, staring at her salivating mouth and nose, and stretched out to the placket with one hand, wanting to touch the Han Fusan she was carrying.

The masked woman's resentful eyes, the soles of her boots slammed on Gu Yunxi's injured shoulder, causing her facial features to change suddenly, and she moaned a long way.

Just as he was about to squat, there was a lot of noise around, and the horses' hooves were like a tide, and then a hundred white-clothed horsemen came out and trapped the black-clothed people in the middle.

"It's the West Factory!"

I don't know who shouted, and the black-clothed people in the encirclement suddenly scrambled, leaning against each other and holding their blades tightly together, and their faces were at a loss under the cloth.

Minglan tugged at his lips on the horse, as if after sneering, the heavy purple eyeshadow flew arrogantly, and coldly ordered:

"Capture them all alive."

Ti rode forward, the sword and sword shadow, and the fight resumed.

The black-clothed men were outnumbered after all, and the masked woman led by her dodged to avoid the attack, took out a hidden weapon and attacked Gu Yunxi, who was suffering from drug addiction and was rolling on the spot, and was wielded by An Hong with a silver hammer to block the hidden weapon.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the woman sighed angrily, let out a sharp whistle, and beckoned her accomplices to flee the scene.

Minglan sent a small team of horsemen to chase after him, while he turned over and dismounted, approaching the dying man on the ground under the protection of An Hong.

Gu Yunxi was lying on his back on the ground, his face was sallow under the control of drug addiction, his whole body was sweating profusely, and his ears were full of noisy and chaotic sounds, like a bubbling tide, and then a blurred face with gloomy makeup broke into his blurred vision.

"Hey, who should this governor be, it turns out that Aunt Dui of Chuxiu Palace, I can't imagine that you and the traitors are actually in the same group! Come on, take people away. ”

Gu Yunxi's heart was cold, and he already knew that the person who spoke in front of him was the commander of the West Factory. Helplessly, Hanfu drug addiction could not take the medicine in time, and no matter how strong his martial arts were, he was reduced to waste at the moment.

Minglan thought that she was in unbearable pain and struggling, so he asked An Hong to order her sleeping hole and took the person to Xichang.

……

The sky was faintly bright, Minglan couldn't hold back the joy in his heart, and he was sleepless all night but was in a hurry to dress up and change his court clothes, preparing to enter the palace to face the saint before Emperor Jingxiao went to the court, and bring the news that Xichang took the traitor Tu Duxue to the emperor the night before.

When the gate of the West Factory opened, I saw a man in a green shirt covered with a flower cloak standing under the lintel, handsome and handsome.

"You? …… Hmph, the news is fast enough, Bendu just took Tu Duxue, and you are here. ”

Minglan was surrounded by his subordinates, raised his eyebrows and looked directly at Leng Qingtang, whose face was calm, and then looked at the two or three plainclothes guards who were with him, with an extremely proud expression.

I had heard some rumors from the palace before, and for that cheap maid, the first celebrant did not hesitate to confront the princess head-on, which made the two of them turn their faces in court.

Now it's him again, and he came to the West Factory early in the morning to block the door, which shows that it is still for her.

Feng's eyes met Minglan's pair of bright peach blossom eyes, Leng Qingtang leisurely hooked his lips, and his timbre was beautiful:

"Lord Ming is going to enter the palace early in the morning?"

"Do you want to care? Looks like you're not going to go to court. ”

Minglan said casually, her peach blossom eyes turned up and down, carefully examining Leng Qingtang's dress.

Leng Qingtang Wen Yu smiled unabated:

"The governor has just come out of the palace, please let me let me go in and speak."

Raising his hand to open Minglan, Leng Qingtang stirred his cloak and swaggered towards the threshold.

Xichang Tiqi stepped forward with a cold face and raised a fighting posture, Leng Qingtang was not in a hurry, took out a roll of yellow silk from his sleeve pocket, and raised it in the air.

"Hey, Leng Qingtang, what is this—what is this!"

Minglan was shocked in his heart, and he could guess in his mind that there were eight or nine or ten, and for a while, his chest rose and fell rapidly, and he waved his hand in a hurry, prompting his subordinates to dodge.

Leng Qingtang's eyebrows curled into a sly smile, and he walked quickly into the main hall of the West Factory, standing upright, and his breath was high:

"Admiral Minglan of the West Factory took the order."

“……”

Minglan tried his best to endure the discomfort in his heart, and knelt on the ground with his subordinates, with his chin and eyebrows lowered.

Leng Qingtang read aloud:

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor said. There are traitors who disturb the capital, enter the palace at night to steal the dragon robe and gold crown, blaspheme the spirit of the emperor, and disturb the Quartet. The Admiral of the Special Commission Dongchang took the important task of investigating the case of the fake person, regarded him as a thief, and held the right to cut first and then play. The West Factory and the public should do their best to assist the East Factory, arrest the culprit as soon as possible, and comfort my peace of mind. Chin this! ”

After the voice fell for a while, Minglan came back to his senses, raised his head angrily, and his bright eyes reflected Leng Qingtang's pale complexion, which seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

"Lord Mingdu, refuse to accept the order?"

Leng Qingtang tilted his eyes to one side, tilted his head with a smile, and handed the closed yellow silk to Minglan's eyes.

The corners of Minglan's mouth were pressed down, his facial features twitched faintly, and he reluctantly raised his arms to receive the holy decree, and replied in a hard voice:

"Minister, Minglan takes the order."

Standing up, Minglan's eyebrows were heavy, and he said unwillingly:

"I didn't expect Lord Leng to be so brazen, and he actually entered the palace to ask for a holy decree, asking the governor's West Factory to assist you in investigating the case!"

Leng Qingtang smiled lightly, and arched his hand:

"Where, where, although the Holy Lord wants the Lord of Ming to be Leng Mou's help, but in Leng Mou's eyes, he has always regarded the relationship of equal cooperation with the Lord of the Ming Governor, this time the east and west factories jointly investigated the case, Leng naturally needs to rely more on the Lord of the Ming Governor."

Minglan sneered coldly:

"The weasel gave the chicken a New Year's greeting, but he didn't have a good heart, you didn't want Ben Du to die back then!"

Leng Qingtang smiled, and his voice was warm and cold:

"What did Lord Ming say, how could Leng be willing to let Lord Ming die? You should know that if Leng wanted you to die, you would never live today. ”

"You ......"

Minglan was choked so much that he was about to die on the spot, his fists clenched and trembled, and his face was angry:

"Y-What the hell are you trying to do?!"

Leng Qingtang looked beyond Minglan and looked aimlessly at somewhere behind him, and said with confidence:

"I believe that Bendu, the cooperation between the east and west factories this time is beneficial and harmless to everyone. In this way, the first step of cooperation is to let Ben Du meet Tu Duxue. ”
