He raised his hand and pointed to the opposite side of the restaurant, and several people looked up, only to see that it was a three-story inn, and the plaque read four big characters "Le Peng Guest House".

In the afternoon of the same day, Xi Lingyue, Li Chengxuan, and A Cui went to the Lepeng Guest House to stay. Strange things happened again, the shopkeeper kept staring at Xilingyue and Ah Cui, especially the former who was extremely attentive, but he didn't pay much attention to Li Chengxuan, a person like Li Chengxuan.

It's exactly what Adam described. Xiling Yue was on guard, but she didn't dare to show anything strange on her face, and the three of them pretended to live in the guest house easily. Li Chengxuan lives in room No. 1 of the word "Tian", and Xilingyue and Acui live in room No. 2.

In the evening, Adan took Guo Zhongting to meet with Li Chengxuan, and the group talked secretly in the guest room for a long time. It wasn't until the curfew was approaching that Guo Zhongting left accompanied by Adan and returned to the Wuning County Mansion.

A quiet rendering before the storm, the seemingly ordinary Le Peng Guest House is full of weirdness, and the atmosphere seems extremely oppressive......

It wasn't until the end of the hour that this strange situation was finally broken—the six windows in the lobby seemed to have forgotten to latch, and they were all pushed open at the same time. Immediately afterwards, twelve black-clothed people jumped into the window one after another, went up to the second floor lightly, and stopped outside the doors of rooms No. 1 and No. 2 of the word "Tian".

The leader gestured, and the twelve immediately slashed the latch with their swords and broke into the two rooms. Obviously, they had inquired in advance, and the two women lived in room No. 2 of the "Tian" character, so only five men in black broke in, and they all put away their blades.

But Li Chengxuan, who lived in room No. 1 of the "Tian" character, was more unlucky, and all the seven people who broke in waved their knives and went straight to the window to take their lives.

However, when they broke into the house, they found it empty! The black-clothed leader shouted that it was not good, and hurriedly ran out of the No. 1 room of the word "Tian", and happened to meet another team of people withdrawing from next door. The other party gestured to him, indicating that there was no one next door.

At this moment, the shopkeeper ran up and was surprised to see the two large guest rooms, "This...... This...... The subordinates can be sure that they haven't gone out. ”

The black-clothed leader was annoyed, but still held on to his last hope and asked, "Which room is empty?" ”

"No, it's full." The shopkeeper replied.

The black-clothed leader cursed and began to search room by room, not only the men and women resting on the couch, but even under the bed, the wardrobe, and the beams. However, after searching all the way, there was no trace of Li Chengxuan and others from room 3 to 17, which disturbed all the guests.

Until I came to the end of the third floor, outside the door of the last room with the word "Tian" No. 18, there was such a big commotion outside, the door of this room was still closed, and the guests did not come out to take a look.

The black-clothed leader secretly said that it was bad, and hurriedly raised his knife to split the door and broke in. Sure enough, the room was empty, and only one window was wide open, indicating that Li Chengxuan and the others had escaped by jumping out of the window.

The black-clothed leader was furious, grabbed the shopkeeper and asked loudly, "Didn't you say that there are people here?" ”

The shopkeeper is very embarrassed, "My subordinates don't dare to lie to you." Outside this room is an alley, stuffy and sunny, and the discerning guest will not stay. But in the evening, a male guest came to stay and said that he didn't care about the quality of the room. The villain saw that he was dignified and not a local, so he agreed. ”

"Dignified?" The black-clothed leader narrowed his eyes and remembered for a moment, and asked, "But you have a pair of peach blossom eyes and the tails of your eyes are upturned?" ”

"Yes, yes! Exactly! ”

"Pei Xingli." The man in black gritted his teeth and shouted the name, and jerked off the face towel from his face, revealing his extremely young face. If Xilingyue saw his face, she would be surprised, because this person is the confidant of the Xiao family, the general manager of Jinxiuzhuang, Zhu Yuanlin, who guarded the empty space and Jingjing'er outside Chang'an City last time, she shouted "Brother Xiaolin" from childhood to adulthood.

At this moment, several people who were almost captured by Zhu Yuanlin had successfully come to the county mansion and joined Wu Yuanheng and other people.

This whole thing is thanks to Adam.

After all, Adan came a few days early and knew a little about the anomalies in Wuning County. At the same time, Wu Yuanheng and his party also noticed something strange and found that the locals knew martial arts and were very vigilant.

A chilling speculation appeared in their hearts - the people of the entire Wuning County, except for the officials and soldiers sent by the imperial court, may have been collected by the Xiao family father and son. Or, the people who live here are the henchmen of the Wu family.

Now that they have fallen into this trap, it is impossible for a few people to escape easily. Just when everyone was trapped in the county mansion, Adan found Guo Zhongting in time and brought news of Xilingyue and Li Chengxuan. Guo Zhongting immediately went to the guest house to talk to the two of them in secret, and told them about the anomaly in Wuning County.

After Li Chengxuan heard this, combined with the reaction of the shopkeeper of Lepeng Inn, he almost concluded that there was a problem in the entire county. According to his speculation, the Xiao family's father and son had already informed the henchmen of the city and were looking for Xilingyue's traces in the city, so the people here would pay special attention to the young woman.

So Li Chengxuan made a decision and decided to send Xilingyue and Acui, who didn't know martial arts, out of the guest house first. He asked Xilingyue to change Guo Zhongting's clothes, put on a cloak to cover his head and face, and pretended to be the other party and waited for the opportunity to leave. After all, Guo Zhongting was a person sent by the imperial court, and he was sure that the shopkeeper would not dare to intercept him easily.

As he expected, Atsui replaced Adan and easily escorted the fake Guo Zhongting out of the guest house and returned to the county mansion.

At the same time, Pei Xingli disguised himself as a guest who had just entered the city to join the stack, and booked the last room with the word "Tian" No. 18.

Although this room is cold and facing the alley, it is a great escape route. Interested parties only need to jump out of the window to quietly leave the surveillance range of the guest house under the cover of the alley.

So after nightfall, Li Chengxuan, Guo Zhongting, and Adan quietly came to Pei Xingli's room, and the four of them jumped out of the window together and escaped, and quickly returned to the county mansion.

The county commander surnamed Wei here only arrived half a year earlier than Wu Yuanheng, and I don't know if he was slow or the locals covered it up too well, he has not found anything unusual since he arrived. It was only after Wu Yuanheng and the others arrived that he was shocked into a cold sweat, and at this moment he was already the master of the six gods.

Imagine that everyone in the entire county knows how to fight, no matter men, women and children, how big a conspiracy should there be?

Originally, Wu Yuanheng was afraid of startling the grass and snakes, so he came to visit Jian, but he didn't want this county town to be so weird. Faced with this situation, he didn't care about the wanted warrant of the imperial court, and decided to join hands with Li Chengxuan to fight the enemy.

"For today's plan, someone must stand up and draw the line of sight before we can leave Wuning to move the rescue troops." Wu Yuanheng was the first to speak his mind.

"But we don't know how much power the other side has, and who is behind it." Bai Juyi also said, "Xia Guan always feels that the Xiao family's father and son are not the real 'His Royal Highness Kangxing'. ”

Hearing this, Xi Lingyue's face turned pale instantly, and she couldn't help but say, "Maybe I'm the ......"

"Xiling!" Li Chengxuan interrupted her in time, and asked Wu Yuanheng instead, "Master Wu, can you take a step to speak?" ”

At the end of February this year, Wu Yuanheng was awarded the envoy of the Jiannan Xichuan Festival, and at the same time, the Son of Heaven crowned him as "Tongzhongshu Menxia Pingzhangshi". This official position is a bit awkward, which means that he will work with officials of the Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province to level the rules and handle government affairs.

This official position was set up by Taizong himself, and was originally intended to promote low-level officials from non-Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province to the next level, and later gradually became the pronoun of the prime minister. In the Gojong Dynasty, all prime ministers would add this title before the actual official position, and for more than 100 years, it has become a tradition to canonize prime ministers.

If today's son gave Wu Yuanheng this official position, it can be regarded as a disguised signal to him, once the rebellion of the Wu family's orphans is solved and Shu is well governed, he can return to Beijing to pay homage to the prime minister. Therefore, Li Chengxuan changed his mouth to call him "Wu Xiangye".

Wu Yuanheng received the kindness of the former emperor Shunzong, and was friendly with the Guo family, so he treated Li Chengxuan very politely, so he nodded and agreed to him to talk in private.

The two walked to the cubicle, and Li Chengxuan opened his mouth and asked, "Master Wu, is there any basis for the imperial brother to choose Wuning County?" "Yes. Sheng Shang analyzed the three counties of Nanpu County and found that this Wuning County was established by Empress Zetian when she was in power, and it was the most suspicious. ”

Seeing that Wu Yuanheng's words and deeds were frank, Li Chengxuan felt a little relieved, so he asked bluntly, "Since Xiangye was ordered to deal with this matter, it can be seen that he has given up the interests of the martial arts, right?" ”

Wu Yuanheng was also quite embarrassed in this matter, and hesitated for a moment before saying, "It's not a secret, the reason why the Holy Lord ordered the officials to come to deal with this matter is also to leave room for improvement." After all, Xia Guan is the great-nephew of Empress Zetian, and he is in the same vein as His Royal Highness Kangxing, so it is easier to talk...... The meaning of the saint is that as long as His Royal Highness Kangxing is ambushed, the cadres and others will not be blamed in the past, and the imperial court will give preferential treatment. Of course, the saint will also give His Royal Highness Kangxing a decent place and bury him in a grand manner. When Wu Yuanheng said this, he deliberately reminded, "Lord Wang, this is a good opportunity to make meritorious contributions, you have to grasp it well, and the lower officials will help you." ”

However, when Li Chengxuan heard the words "Fu Xu" and "Scenery Funeral", his brows were already deeply locked, and he thought about it for a long time before confiding the truth, "Xiangye is also a member of the Wu family, and he definitely doesn't want to see the Li and Wu families killing each other." I won't hide it from you, I suspect that Xiling is the real 'His Royal Highness Kangxing'. ”

"What?!" Wu Yuanheng was shocked, "County lord, she...... Isn't she the daughter of the eldest princess? ”

Li Chengxuan then told the truth everything that happened in Weizhou.
