Like the estimates of Xiang Kang, Xiang You and others, the three Shan Right Lieutenant family members who suddenly lived in Yan Jiting's guest house were really sent by Shan Right Lieutenant to contact Xiang You, but the henchmen and family members of these three Shan Right Lieutenants all slightly underestimated the intelligence ability of Xiang Kang and the Yu family's father and son, and they didn't know that the servants of the Yu family who stayed in Yan Jiting to guard the old house and fields had already recognized them, and secretly reported them to the Yu family's father and son, and were stabbed by the Yu family to Xiang Kang.

Wang Ju, who had fought with Fan Xu twice, was the head of the three, and after living in the Yanjiting guest house, Wang Ju had twice sent his subordinates secretly to Shiling Pavilion to try to get in touch with Xiang You, and asked Xiang You to come to Yanjiting to meet and negotiate with him. But it's a pity, because the children of the Xiang family like to wander around, and because Xiang Kang cleverly used his own children to keep an eye on each other, Wang Ju's subordinates only saw Xiang You from a distance once, and they didn't dare to approach and talk to Xiang You. In addition, Feng Zhong, the head snake of Shiling Pavilion, was also the opponent of Shan Youwei, and Wang Ju's subordinates did not dare to stay in the territory of Shiling Pavilion for a long time, so it was naturally more difficult to find an opportunity to secretly contact Xiang You.

In this regard, Wang Ju was of course a little anxious in his heart, but fortunately, Shan Youwei did not set a time limit for Wang Ju, so Wang Ju could also live in Yanji Pavilion for the time being, patiently waiting for the opportunity to get in touch with Xiang You, and during this period, it was naturally indispensable to send someone back to report to Shan Youwei, so that Shan Youwei could wait patiently for a few more days.

Yihuang had been living in Yanji Pavilion for five days, and on the morning of the sixth day, Wang Ju had an attitude of giving it a try, and sent a subordinate named Ji Jiao in civilian clothes to sneak to Shiling Pavilion, and tried to contact Xiang You secretly again, and also told Ji Jiao that as long as Xiang You could be found, no matter what excuse he could find, he would come to talk to Xiang You, and secretly asked Xiang You to come to Yanji Pavilion to meet and negotiate with him, and receive the task assigned by Captain Shan.

It was very surprising to Wang Ju, after Ji Jian set off to leave Yanji Pavilion in the morning, he actually returned to the Yanji Pavilion guest house just after Shi Zheng, and said as soon as they met: "Brother Wang, you don't need to go to Yanji Pavilion, Xiang You's little vertical man is here, and he came to Yanji Pavilion with his gang of broken children, looking at it, it seems that he is coming here to play." ”

"Good time." Wang Juyi was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly put the poison handed over to him by Captain Shan, led two of his subordinates out in a hurry, and came directly to the side of the road leading from Yanji Pavilion to Shiling Pavilion to wait, and hid very carefully in a secluded place on the side of the road, leaving only one of his subordinates disguised as ordinary people to guard the roadside, patiently waiting for Xiang You's arrival.

It was only after a while that the children of the Xiang family, who had tied their hair and swords, appeared in the field of vision of Wang Ju and others with a smile, Xiang You walked at the end of the crowd, constantly looking around, as if looking for something. Wang Ju's subordinates, who had been waiting anxiously on the side of the road for a long time, did not hesitate, and immediately stepped forward, pretending to pass by the children of the Xiang family, and deliberately coughed a few times when he was about to walk next to Xiang You, and desperately glanced at Xiang You like a chicken wiping his neck.

Xiang You really recognized the family of this single right lieutenant immediately, snorted behind him, and motioned for Wang Ju's subordinates to go back, Wang Ju's subordinates understood, nodded their heads and walked forward, Xiang You continued to follow the Xiang family's children in the opposite direction, and soon distanced himself from Wang Ju's subordinates.

Still after the children of the Xiang family walked away, Wang Jucai and Ji Jiao came out of the hidden place, hurriedly came over to exchange news with his subordinates, and after learning Xiang You's nourishing gesture, Wang Ju, who had been waiting for several days, was of course happy in his heart, and led his two subordinates to continue to guard the side of the road, and continued to wait patiently for Xiang You to return.

After about half a moment, Xiang You really reappeared in the field of vision of Wang Ju and others, and beckoned to Wang Ju and others from a distance, Wang Ju and others understood, and hurriedly greeted them, who knew that Xiang You turned around and left, Wang Ju and the other three people were strangely hurried to follow, and were soon led by Xiang You to a location with a small forest on the side of the road, and then Xiang You turned around and got into the woods, Wang Ju and the other three suddenly realized, knowing that Xiang You was looking for a safer place to talk, and hurriedly followed, Finally, in a particularly densely wooded position in the middle of the woods, I met Xiang You alone.

"Xiang Gongzi, you told us to wait." Wang Ju, who was in a good mood, smiled and said, "Do you know that we have been waiting for you in Yanji Pavilion for a few days?" ”

"You know, I've been waiting for me for six days."

Xiang You's frank answer made Wang Ju a little dumbfounded, and Wang Ju couldn't help but blurt out, "How do you know?" ”

"You still have the face to ask, I was almost killed by you." Xiang You said angrily: "Your whereabouts have long been discovered by the Yu family, and the Yu family told the news to Xiang Kang, and Xiang Kang told our Xiang family brothers to guard against you, so I haven't had a chance to act alone in the past few days." ”

"Also, Xiang Kang is already suspicious that you did the mountaineering that day." Xiang You quickly added: "He and Feng Zhong also sent someone to Ling County to secretly investigate the incident, and I heard that some eyebrows were also found. ”

"What did you find?" Wang Ju hurriedly asked.

"It seems that I bought off a subordinate of your family and found out who was not at home that day." Xiang You said: "Xiang Kang suspects that the person who released the secret arrow to sneak attack that day should be the martial artist in your family, and he is secretly investigating who killed the person, and wants to find out the person who released the arrow that day, force him to confess, and knock down your master directly, I heard that the names of two people have been found." ”

"The names of those two people?" Wang Ju hurriedly asked again.

"I don't know, that kid has a very strict mouth, no matter what my brothers ask, he won't say." Xiang You shook his head, and asked worriedly: "Brother Wang, the person who released the arrow that day should not be you, right?" If it's you, be careful not to fall into his hands. ”

"Not me." Wang Ju also shook his head and said truthfully: "That night, although I also went, I ambushed on another road and didn't meet Xiang Kang's little shaft. ”

"Is that you?" Xiang You asked Wang Ju's two subordinates again, and said, "If it's you, you must be careful, maybe your names have already been known by Xiang Kang and Feng Zhong." Two people died that night, it was a major homicide case, and as long as Feng Zhong got the evidence, he could directly cross the border to get people. ”

"Don't worry, I'll be careful." Wang Ju's subordinate Ji said that he didn't admit himself, and said: "On the other brother's side, I will also tell him to be careful." ”

Xiang You's eyes flashed with a strange light, and he nodded, and then asked, "What is the matter that you have been waiting for me in Yanji Pavilion for so many days?" Tell me, I've been here for a long time, and I'm afraid my brothers will be suspicious. ”

Seeing that the time was urgent, Wang Ju didn't think much about it, and immediately took out a coarse porcelain bottle, handed it to Xiang You and said, "My master said, let you find a way to put some of these things in the rice that Xiang Kang Xiaozhuzi ate, or the water he drank." ”

"You told me to poison Xiang Kang?" Xiang You's surprise was not fake, but he was really surprised by Captain Shan's viciousness, he never expected that Captain Shan would let himself kill Xiang Kang by himself.

"Don't worry, even if the incident happens, those brothers in your family will only suspect that we did it, and will not suspect you." Wang Ju smiled and said: "Also, my master said that after the matter is completed, he will give you fifty gold to help you marry the little sister of the Yu family." ”

Some tremblingly took the coarse porcelain vial, and Xiang You asked again, "Is there any other explanation?" If not, I'll go first. ”

"It's gone." Wang Ju smiled and said, "Do it as soon as possible and wait for your good news." ”

Xiang You nodded, took a few steps back, and then suddenly raised his voice, and shouted directly: "It's okay, the physical evidence has been obtained, and you can take the human evidence." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Wang Ju and the other three were shocked.

"Piff, suffer death!"

There was a sudden roar above their heads, and then before Wang Ju and the others came to their senses, two tall figures had already jumped down from the dense foliage above their heads, and both of them kicked in mid-air with volleys, kicking Wang Ju and Ji Jiao who were caught off guard respectively, kicking one of them to the back and falling, and the other kicking to the ground. And then, the two brothers Xiang Zhuang and Xiang Guan, who are the best among the children of the Xiang family, also appeared majestically in front of Wang Ju and others like gods.

"Rush! Rush in and grab them all! ”

Footsteps and shouts came from outside the forest at the same time, and the children of the Xiang family, who had not been traced before, were also like divine soldiers descending from the sky, carrying swords and suddenly rushing in from outside the woods, shouting and rushing towards Wang Ju and the others. Wang Ju was shocked when he saw it, and quickly jumped up and ran out, "Run!" ”

"Where to run?!" Xiang Zhuang also flew up with a kick, just kicked on Wang Ju's back, fortunately Wang Ju is still a bit of martial arts, even if he was kicked along, he also used his hand to the ground in time, and he didn't fall, stumbling forward, Xiang Zhuang drew his sword and chased after him, and greeted Wang Ju with red eyes, and soon stabbed Wang Ju in the back shoulder.

On the other side, Xiang Guan also set his eyes on Ji Jiao, who admitted that he had released the arrow, kicked him down twice in succession, and then stabbed him in the leg with a sword, piercing his thigh directly, breaking his idea of escaping. Another of Wang Ju's subordinates drew their swords and tried to rescue Ji Jiao, but they were also caught by Xiang You with a sword, and the ping-pong fight was together, during which Xiang You, who was somewhat remorseful, still fought to get injured himself, and also stabbed Wang Ju's subordinate with a sword, and also stabbed him.

After a slight delay, the other Xiang family disciples had already rushed to the front, and they either helped Xiang Guan get people, or helped Xiang You deal with the enemy, and Xiang Sheng, who was tall and tall, also relied on his feet to quickly and widely, strode to catch up with Wang Ju and Xiang Zhuang, and helped Xiang Zhuang stop Wang Ju. Wang Ju was helpless, he could only roar and draw his sword desperately, but although Wang Ju's martial arts were not bad, how could he beat the two elite Xiang Zhuang and Xiang Sheng's joint attack among the children of the Xiang family, and after only five or six rounds, he was pierced through his right hand by Xiang Zhuang's sword, and the iron knife in his hand fell to the ground, and Xiang Sheng next to him took the opportunity to turn the hilt of the sword, and a sword handle smashed on the back of his head, not to mention that the blood splashed on the back of his head, and also made his head dizzy and his eyes blackened, Xiang Zhuang took the opportunity to sweep him to the ground, and stepped on it tightly with his feet.

At this time, the children of the Xiang family, who fought more and less, had already picked up the bronze sword of another of Wang Ju's subordinates, and forced him to kneel and surrender with the sword, and Ji Jiao, who was pierced through the thigh by Xiang Guan, had already been tied with his hands back, and the three family members of Shan Youwei were all taken down by the children of the Xiang family, and none of them escaped.

"Xiang You, you capricious and despicable villain!" Wang Ju struggled and roared: "Dare to be a traitor, don't forget, your handwritten slip is still in the hands of our master, you betrayed your brother, you shameless villain!" ”

"Shut your dog's mouth!" Xiang Zhuang kicked Wang Ju's mouth, directly kicking one of Wang Ju's teeth, and then said with a cruel smile: "Pifu, let me tell you the truth, Xiang You went to contact you, it was arranged by my brother Xiang Kang personally, and the purpose was to get ironclad evidence that you tried to assassinate him!" If you are smart, when you get to our Xiaxiang County Temple, you will give me an honest confession and confess all the crimes of your master, otherwise you will be comfortable. ”

"Xiang You went to Ling County, and it was also arranged by Xiang Kang's little erector?" Wang Ju was a little dumbfounded, and he didn't expect that Xiang You, who had barely gained the temporary trust of Captain Shan after passing many tests that day, turned out to be the one sent by Xiang Kang. And after coming back to his senses, Wang Ju hurriedly yelled again: "Let go of me!" I'm from Ling County, you're not an official, what qualifications do you have to arrest me? ”

"Soon after." Xiang Zhuang smiled and shouted: "Quick, tie them all, plug their mouths, and take them back to Shiling Pavilion." ”

According to Xiang Zhuang's instructions, the children of the Xiang family hurriedly took out the ropes hidden on their bodies before, tied Wang Ju and the other three with their hands and feet, and blocked their mouths with socks, and then Xiang Zhuang, Xiang Guan, Xiang Han and other big men carried one person on their shoulders, took them and hurried back and forth. The passers-by on the road were shocked, and although they didn't dare to directly stop the fierce and vicious Xiang family's children, they hurriedly went to report to Yan Jiting's pavilion without mentioning it.

After receiving the report, although I didn't know the situation very well, but Yan Jiting, who knew some of the inside information, and Zhang Ying, who wanted to steal it, still hurriedly brought the horse, rode on the horse and hurried to rob people with the two-foot version, in a vain attempt to use the power of the government to stop the children of the Xiang family and rescue the captured Wang Ju and others. The children of the Xiang family took turns to carry Wang Ju and others to the road, racing against time to return to the territory of Xiaxiang County.

After all, Zhang Ying and the others rode faster, and the children of the Xiang family had not been able to see the boundary monument of Xiaxiang County, Zhang Ying and the others had already chased behind, and when they heard the shouts of Shan Youwei's subordinates, Wang Ju and others also struggled desperately, increasing the difficulty of the children of the Xiang family carrying them on foot, and buying time for Zhang Ying and others. Although the children of the Xiang family also punched and kicked them to be quiet, it was a pity that it had no effect, and Zhang Ying and the pavilion chief of Yan Jiting also took the opportunity to chase closer and closer, and gradually approached within twenty steps behind the children of the Xiang family and the others.

"Pimple, pimple, pimple."

At the critical moment, the sound of new horses' hooves came, and Feng Zhong and the thief of Shiling Pavilion each rode a fast horse, which also appeared in front of the road like a divine soldier descending from heaven. The children of the Xiang family, who were already out of breath, were overjoyed to see it, and they walked faster with confidence, and rushed to each other face to face with Feng Zhong and others, and finally took the first step to meet with Feng Zhong and shouted before being caught up by Zhang Ying and others-this is very important. Feng Zhong, who had been holding the two-foot version in his hand, also hurriedly lifted the two-foot version and yelled at Zhang Ying and the others: "Feng Zhong of the Prime Minister's Mansion is handling the case, idle people, etc., immediately avoid it!" ”

"This is the county border of Lingxian County, these people are also the first people we saw, what qualifications do you have to handle the case?" Zhang Ying reined in his horse and asked unconvinced.

"But I met them first, and they told me first." Feng Zhong smiled and said: "Also, the three people they caught, I suspect that they are involved in the two murders that happened in our Xiaxiang County, even if they cross the border, this official is also qualified to investigate!" ”

Wang Ju and the others struggled desperately, whimpering and wanting to make a sound, but unfortunately the children of the Xiang family didn't give them a chance to speak at all, and Feng Zhong smiled at Zhang Ying and Yan Jiting's pavilion chief: "Pavilion Chief Jiang, Zhang Qiu thief, I'm sorry, I have to escort these three people back to the next minister for trial, if you think this matter has something to do with you, you can go over with me to hear the trial, I will not stop it." Well, ....... ”

Speaking of this, Feng Zhong dragged out a little at the end, and said with a sneer: "But for the sake of everyone being neighbors, I advise you, it's best not to listen, because this case is likely to be related to your superiors, and if the subordinates have to track down the superiors, not only will they be easily implicated, but things will not be so easy to handle." ”

had long known the identities of Wang Ju and the others, and of course Yan Jiting's pavilion chief and Zhang Ying knew that this matter was likely to be related to his immediate boss, Shan Youwei, and if he didn't do it well, he might offend the notoriously domineering Shan Youwei. But the matter has come to this point, if you don't go to the audit, you can't explain it to the county, so after discussing a few words in a low voice with Zhang Ying, it was decided that Jiang Tingchang would go to Shiling Pavilion to observe the case and understand the situation. Feng Zhong knew their thoughts, but he didn't stop them, he just smiled and let the children of the Xiang family continue to carry Wang Ju and the others, and returned to Shiling Pavilion to interrogate the confession with him.

There are witnesses and physical evidence, and there are children of the Xiang family to testify, repeating the non-confession of Wang Ju and Ji Jiao and others, if Feng Zhong, a veteran in handling the case, can't ask for a confession again, it is really in vain, which is equivalent to the head of the township police station. It was just afternoon, and Feng Zhong successfully forced Ji Jiao to explain the truth about the assassination of Xiang Kang that day, and after the matter was reported to Xiaxiang County, Zhou County's order immediately sent the county officials to Ling County overnight with official documents to Tinadan's right lieutenant to be tried in Xiaxiang.

But it's a pity that the prime minister was a step late, and just learned the general story of the incident from Zhang Ying's mouth, and Captain Shan, who had a keen sixth sense, immediately understood that he was probably in a catastrophe this time, and fled to hide outside the city with gold and silver early. And after receiving the news that the Prime Minister's Office had taken him, Shan Youwei fled east overnight, disappeared into the night, and disappeared without a trace.

After the news of Captain Shan's guilt and absconding was transmitted back to the prime minister, Xiang Kang, who had worked hard to design, was still relieved although he was a little surprised—without power, even if Captain Shan could still seek revenge on himself, the threat was far less great. So Xiang Kang said to himself again: "It's also an end, at least I don't have to worry about Captain Shan's people plotting against me all the time, and I can concentrate on doing bigger things." ”
