Early the next morning, a white carriage slowly drove from the official road in the distance, and after driving to the west gate of Pingzhou City, it was stopped by the officials who were interrogating.

There was a man in white with a long sword in his hand following the carriage in all four directions, and the four men looked at the official who stopped them.

The official's eyesight is not bad, and when he sees this group of people, he knows that he is from the rivers and lakes, and his tone is not too much, and the official led by him clasped his fists into the carriage and said, "I don't know who is in the car?" ”

"It's my owner in the car." A man in white said coldly.

The official at the head said again: "Recently, the city of Pingzhou has not been peaceful, assassins are raging, all pedestrians and vehicles entering and leaving must be checked, please forgive me." ”

After speaking, several officials around him also surrounded him.

The man in white in front of the car frowned.

A tough voice suddenly sounded in the car: "Alas, Wei Lang, the official errand is in accordance with the law, and he must not come nonsense, just let them check." ”

"Yes." The man named Wei Lang replied respectfully, then turned sideways and stood aside.

Then the leader waved his hand, and several officials went up and down to check the carriage, and the leader also opened the curtain of the carriage and glanced inside.

In the carriage, only a middle-aged man dressed in white closed his eyes and recuperated, and the official's movements did not seem to alarm him.

Facing the official's scrutiny, the man in white still didn't open his eyes, and said slowly: "Official, what's the problem?" ”

"No, offended." The official shook his head, then closed the curtain.

The carriage set off again and drove into the city.

……

Ning Xiangju, in the boudoir of Qin Elegy.

A dark shadow crept in like a ghost.

Qin Elegy, who was drinking tea in the room, just glanced back, and then said with a smile: "Senior brother, what are you doing here?" ”

Yuan Shen walked out from behind a screen.

Qin Elegy poured him a cup of tea.

Yuan Shen's expression was a little solemn, and after sitting down, he said, "I just saw the people from Donghu Village." ”

"Donghu Village?" Qin Elegy was surprised.

Yuan Shen nodded: "The four guards of East Lake, they are clustered around a carriage and go in the direction of the Laolong River." ”

Qin Elegy muttered: "There is only one person who can make the four guards of East Lake so respectful. ”

Yuan Shen nodded again: "East Lake Zhuang Master, Wei Lie." ”

Qin Elegy pondered: "Senior brother, are you right? The people of Donghuzhuang have been staying in Jingzhou for more than ten years and have never come out, why did they come to Pingzhou at this time? And it was the owner of the farm who came in person. ”

Yuan Shen affirmed: "It will never be wrong, the four people who followed the carriage were the four guards of East Lake." ”

"Then what are they doing on the other side of the Old Dragon River?" Qin Elegy asked.

Yuan Shen shook his head: "I don't know, I don't dare to follow too closely, if it is really Wei Lie in the carriage, it will be easy for him to find out." ”

"Isn't it for Liu Qingyin?" Qin Elegy guessed.

Yuan Shen said: "No matter what he does, as long as he doesn't embarrass us and Zhang Xiang, then we don't have to pay attention to him." ”

Qin Elegy said: "Master said that the Snow God Sect and Donghuzhuang have always had well water that does not interfere with river water, and they have no conflict with us on goals, they want to restore the country, we just want to find out the truth about the fall of Liangzhou back then." ”

"Liu Qingyin is the former princess of Chu, Wei Lie is her uncle, Liu Qingyin has been operating in Pingzhou for three years, is there something that can't be done? Otherwise, how could Wei Lie come out of Jingzhou at this time? Yuan pondered for a moment.

Qin Elegy shook his head, and suddenly said with a smile: "Today's Southern Chu is prosperous, compared to the former Chu, I don't know how prosperous it is, these remnants of the former Chu want to restore the country, in my opinion, it is just a fool's dream." Although Liu Qingyin has been operating in Pingzhou for three years, even if he has secretly cultivated strength, how can this strength shake the foundation of today's Southern Chu. ”

"That being said, Ke Wei Lie has also been cultivating in Jingzhou for twenty years, and in the past twenty years, I don't know how much strength he has secretly cultivated?"

"The Snow God Sect has a master, as well as some elites of the Northern Foot Army, and in the past year, it has also accepted a lot of people who fled to the past and developed into sect members, and now they are still suppressed by the imperial court, so they can only stay in the Snow God Mountain, even if Donghu Village has cultivated its strength in secret, how can it be compared with the Snow God Sect? And a place like Jingzhou, under the control of the imperial court, over the years, these former Chu remnants have been searched by the imperial court like rats crossing the street, how much power can they cultivate in such a small space? How dare they make a rebellion before they have absolute power? Qin Elegy analyzed it and smiled softly.

Yuan Shen thought about it and felt that it made sense, so he said: "Then don't care about them, anyway, I don't have a good impression of this Southern Chu court, even if Donghuzhuang really rebels, it has nothing to do with us." ”

Qin Elegy said slowly: "The death of Engong has made the current court chilling, but I have to admit that since Emperor Zhao Yan ascended the throne, in the past 17 years, he has indeed created a peaceful and prosperous era, allowing the people of the world to sing praises and virtues, and he is a good emperor who really does things for the people." If you can, I don't want such a prosperous era to be broken, and it is the people who will suffer at that time, and I don't want the Liangzhou tragedy a year ago to happen again. ”

"Don't forget, in the eyes of the imperial court, our Snow God Sect is also a rebel, and the imperial court vows to exterminate it." Yuan Shen said coldly.

Qin Elegy raised the cup in his hand and slowly took a sip of water: "What does the imperial court think of us, that's the matter of the imperial court, we can't be a real rebel for the sake of this imperial court!" Engong is loyal and righteous all his life, in order to maintain the imperial power, he is willing to die, if we go against the grain, Engong Quanxia knows, I believe it will not be blind, Engong is not for this court, but for the people of the world, the court is in chaos, the world is in chaos. Master is loyal to Engong, he understands Engong's meaning, so he taught us that the court is unkind to us, and we really can't be unjust to it, as long as we find out the truth about the fall of Liangzhou and return Engong's innocence, our Snow God Sect will naturally no longer be a rebel. ”

Although he understood Qin Elegy's words, Yuan Shen was still very unhappy in his heart: "If Donghuzhuang really rebels, I won't care about it anyway." ”

"I can't help you when the time comes, can you still not listen to Master's words?" Qin Elegy smiled.

Yuan Shen snorted coldly, got up and said, "I'm leaving!" ”

"Wait, brother." Qin Wangge hurriedly stopped him.

"What else?" Yuan Shen turned his head.

Qin Elegy said: "Why don't you go and find out, where are the people from Donghu Village?" ”

"No, no." Yuan Shen refused cleanly: "I can't beat Wei Lie, in case he finds out, I can't run." ”

"I didn't expect that in addition to the master, there are other people who are afraid!" Qin Elegy smiled and excited.

Yuan Shen was not afraid of her jokes, and said honestly: "My martial arts are not as good as his, so I am naturally afraid of him." ”

Qin Elegy actually just said it casually, and he didn't want Yuan Shen to take this risk, so he had to say: "Then senior brother pass the news to Master!" Listen to Master's opinion. ”

Yuan Shen nodded, and then quickly disappeared into the room.

In the quiet room, Qin Elegy was thinking as he gently tapped the table with his fingers, making a crisp sound.

……

Laolonghe, Fuji Cloth Company's new workshop has been under construction for several days.

Du Boguang, the bookkeeper of the Horse Mansion, has been following Zhang Xiang's instructions in the past few days and has personally come to supervise the work every day.

As soon as he was directing his men to carry a cart of animal skins into the workshop, Du Boguang saw a white carriage parked in front of the house next door.

The house next door is called Qingguang Temple, and he heard the horse say that only the mother of the little prince of Kangfu and a few portable maids live in it.

He was a little curious, he usually paid attention to this mansion, basically the door was closed, and no one could be seen entering or leaving, which was so deserted that it was in stark contrast to this hot new workshop.

Why are people here today?

He had also seen Kang Yu, the little son of Kang Mansion, come once before, but Kang Yu's carriage was not this one, and Kang Yu brought a lot of entourage when he came, not like this one, only four men in white with cold faces and long swords.

So, Du Boguang stopped from a distance and watched for a while.

I saw a man in white come forward and knock on the door, and after waiting for a while, a maid walked out.

After the man in white had spoken a few words to the maid, the maid went in, and after a while the maid came out again and said a few words to the carriage.

Soon, the curtain of the carriage opened, and a middle-aged man dressed in white with sharp eyes like an eagle walked down.

The maid welcomed the five men in.

The door of the house is closed again, and it is deserted...
