This idea is the same as when Wei Yongnan went out of the city, Wei Yongnan and Qi Ying also asked this question when they met, what is the place in Zhongqiao Lin Li Yan knows, it is a good place to do improper things.

The guard said very clearly, after an hour, he would give him a note if he didn't return to the city, if he returned to the city, why should the guards give him a note, Li Yan got up and called the three of them to follow him out of the city.

Zhongqiao is densely forested, if you come with the mood of going out to have fun, then this is a good place to play, Li Yan is not here to play, but to be full of vigilance.

If you want to meet in Zhongqiao Lin, the place where you can make an appointment must be Zhongqiao, and the bridge is a target point, Li Yan is already on Zhongqiao, Zhongqiao is still so old and arched, no one is on the bridge, but you can hear the sound of bees, Li Yan and Wei Yongnan have no interest in honey, of course they are indifferent to this.

There was no one on the bridge but there was blood, it was Wei Yongnan who left a bloodstain, as soon as he saw the bloodstains, Li Yan's brows furrowed even deeper, is this blood Qi Ying's, or Wei Yongnan's, or someone else's?

Li Yan squatted down and scratched the finger of his index finger on the bloodstains, and the blood stains dried quickly, but they were still a little sticky, and the bloodstains were more than one and followed the bloodstains, and the bloodstains dripped on the grass for a while, and the blood marks of three fingers appeared on the trunk of the tree, no matter whose blood it was, a lot of it was shed.

Loud footsteps could be heard in the distance, and the hussar guard said, "Someone is coming"

Hearing the sound and no one was seen, Li Yandao said, "Hide"

Li Yanyu hid behind a tree, and when he saw the people from the City Defense Division hurrying past in front of them, Li Yanxin said, "Is Qi Ying injured?" ”

This speculation can't be said to be unreasonable, the people from the City Defense Division may have come because Qi Ying was injured.

Such a big forest is looking for someone, there must be another wave when there is a wave, Fang Wenhou ordered before leaving the city that when he is not in Bei'an, he must not conflict with the city defense department, Fang Wenhou's words are military orders, and military orders are like mountains Li Yan will not violate them if he can choose.

If you don't want to disobey, you can only go, staying will only increase the chance of disobedience, enter the city and return to the tea stall, and sit down to drink tea, Li Yandao "Let people go to the Pawn Office to see if Qi Ying is there, and let people go to Wei Yongnan"

"Yes," the two guards left.

After half a ring, the guards came back to the pawn office and said, "Qi Yinggang and the envoy Zhang Zhongping returned to the office"

At this time, it was Lu Kai and Dai Qianyu who were discussing how to enter the palace and get the seal mud back to the office in Qi Ying's house.

Li Yanqi said: "Qi Ying and the envoy are together? "Didn't you go to the appointment?" ”

Yes, if Qi Ying went to the appointment, how could she go back to the office with Lu Kai and them, but the appointment was made an hour ago, an hour was long enough, and there was enough time to return to the city after meeting.

After a while, another guard came back and said, "I've asked everything, no one has seen Wei Yongnan"

Li Yan felt wrong at this time and asked, "Is Qi Ying injured?" ”

Go to the Pawn Office and guard the road "not injured"

Li Yan waved his hand to signal the guards to retreat, and the people sat in the tea stall, and now it was a red glow in the sky, and a pickpocket looked anxious to get out of the city as soon as possible.

The pickpocket's demeanor was already in Li Yan's eyes, but he didn't move, watching the pickpocket go out of the city.

Li Yan is not interested in the outside world at all, and only thinks about where Wei Yongnan has gone?

After one night, Wei Yongnan was never seen, and when Dai Qian Zhu Xingkong went out of the city to see Li Min and Li Shan, Li Yan went to the Pawn Office.

Of course, Li Yan went to the Pawn Office to see Qi Ying, and when he didn't see Wei Yongnan come back overnight, he could only ask this person who made an appointment.

Qi Ying is very energetic every day, since the post of temporary acting city defense lieutenant is very energetic every day, people who work hard always seem very happy, Qi Ying is very happy, happy to eat breakfast in the main hall of the front yard of the Pawn Office.

The person who made Qi Ying unhappy came, Li Yan came, the person was in front of Qi Ying, Li Yan came to the pawn office for the first time, and the green porridge had not eaten two bites Qi Ying hurriedly got up to greet him, "I've seen Adjutant Zuo"

Li Yan was Fang Wenhou's deputy, and served as the left adjutant in the Northern Shu Hussars.

Li Yan glanced at Qi Ying, and sat down as straight as he could, "I have something to ask you, sit down and talk"

"Yes," Qi Ying sat down next to Li Yan.

Li Yan got straight to the point and said, "Where did Wei Yongnan go?" ”

Li Yan came to the door and asked straight to the point, seeing that this seemed to know something, Qi Ying would not admit it and said with a smile: "Wei Yongnan is not from the City Defense Division, how do I know where I go?" ”

If Qi Ying tells the truth, Li Yan will not suspect anything, and now pretending to be stupid has attracted attention, and Li Yan is useless to pretend to be stupid when he comes to the door.

Li Yanzhi stared at Qi Ying and asked, "You really don't know where Wei Yongnan went?" ”

Qi Ying's eyes were frank and swaying, and he looked at Li Yan and smiled lightly: "Adjutant Zuo's meaning makes me very confused, I don't know why I think I will know where Wei Yongnan is?" ”

Li Yan took out the note left by Wei Yongnan and pushed it to Qi Ying on the coffee table, Qi Ying glanced at the note, her heart sank, she didn't show any different color on her face, and after reading the note, she slowly turned her eyes to Li Yan, "This is..?" ”

Li Yan's eyes were as wide as a flashing dagger, and he looked directly at Qi Ying and said, "You might as well take a look"

Seeing such a gaze, Qi Ying couldn't help but feel on guard in her heart, and suddenly had a feeling of danger, Qi Ying looked at the note and didn't move, "Whose note is it, why do you want me to read it?" ”

Li Yan's eyes were as blank as an invading blade, "Why don't you dare to look at it?" ”

Qi Ying hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "Adjutant Zuo, what don't you dare to laugh at?"

If you don't dare, don't look at it, if you dare, Qi Ying has already read it, and when she saw it, she suddenly secretly screamed that it was not good, the words on the note were dead, and no one tampered with them, even if it was so, the words on the note were the same yesterday, today, tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow.

The words on the note, the words were like thunder, Qi Ying was like a lightning strike, how could he have thought that Wei Yongnan would leave a small note for Li Yan before he saw him.

Qi Ying couldn't deny it anymore, so Li Yan was asking, "Where did Wei Yongnan go?" ”

The road is one foot high, the magic is one foot high, Li Yan came to the door to ask so much, Qi Ying did not show his cowardice on the spot, his face changed quickly, and he pretended to have just remembered something and said, "Oh, remember, you see my memory, yesterday it was indeed about Wei Yongnan to go to Zhongqiao Forest, that is, he said a conversation, why didn't anyone come back?" ”

Since Qi Ying admitted it, then Li Yan had something to ask, "If there is anything you have to say, go to Zhongqiao Lin to say?" ”

Qi Ying smiled, and actually told Li Yan the truth: "Since Adjutant Zuo came to inquire, I won't hide it from you, Wei Yongnan's private investigation office ordered some things I want to ask in person."

Whether Wei Yongnan privately investigated Cheng Weilian, this Li Yan didn't know, but Wei Yongnan did go out of the city to inquire about something according to Fang Wenhou's instructions, Wei Yongnan went out of the city to do business, Li Yan knew, but whether it was for Cheng Weilian's affairs is unknown.

Now listening to Qi Ying's words, Wei Yongnan is very likely to inquire about Cheng Weilian, Yang Gongtian is not here now, Cheng Weilian has something to tell Qi Ying, it is not a surprise, Qi Ying is honest to push the matter on Cheng Weilian's head, so he does not hide anything from Li Yan.

Qi Ying didn't hesitate, he hesitated, and it made sense when he heard it, Qi Ying told the truth so that Li Yan didn't know what he was asking, and added, "After meeting in Zhongqiao Lin yesterday, you haven't seen him?" ”

After that, he really didn't see Wei Yongnan, the lies were all said as true, and the truth was naturally more true, Qi Yingdao said, "I said the conversation yesterday, and I left, why did Adjutant Zuo hurriedly ask, what happened to Wei Yongnan?" ”

Li Yan couldn't be sure that the blood on the Zhongqiao was Wei Yongnan's, so he was asking, "I've been to Zhongqiao Forest, and I happened to meet people from the City Defense Division, what kind of errand did you go there?" ”

Qi Ying has already taken precautions against this, there is a note as evidence, Li Yan said that he must have checked it yesterday, since he has checked it, he will definitely see bloodstains, and he will not appear panicked when he has a precautionary answer, Qi Ying said, "It's not an errand, I heard that there are hungry people gathering in Zhongqiao Forest, I asked people to take a look, and Adjutant Zuo also knows that some things must be stopped in advance, and the hungry people can't break into the city."

Li Yan hadn't heard of this, as for whether it was true, it was slow to investigate now, and everyone was rushing away to check something, Qi Ying dealt with it properly Li Yan got up and said, "I'm bothered"

Qi Ying got up and sent out of the door, Li Yan left the Pawn Office full of doubts, the person was out of the office Qi Ying knew that Li Yan would not be suspicious, if Wei Yongnan did not return to the city today, it would already be able to explain a lot of problems, after all, a person will not disappear without a trace for no reason.
