Qinglian Temple is located in the south of Wuwei Military City not far from a small river, a pond of two or three acres in front, there are some lotus, lotus planted in it, the season is in midsummer June, it is the flowering season, and see the lotus flower of the pond, the lotus flower is gorgeous, the beauty is overwhelming.

In the evening of this day, Huang Wenhua, a great benevolent man in Wuwei Military City, came to Qinglian Temple with a few people. The temple was built by the Huang family to raise funds, and the presiding abbot is also a member of the Huang family, so it is not an exaggeration to call this temple the Huang family's home temple.

Huang Wenhua and his party did not stop at the front of the temple, but went around to the side gate and directly entered the meditation room in the backyard, and stayed for about an hour before they came out of it and returned to the city.

Gu Haotian also lived in Wuwei Military City for the past two days, and it was also in the evening of this day that Zhang Heng and Li Li rushed over from Jiangzhou City.

"Little official, Huang Wenbing's guy has already brought the little lady who sang the song across the river, and after Brother Li Li sent the news to the riverside, the two of us followed the river all the way, and watched the guy stuff the little lady into a small sedan chair and carry it into the city."

Zhang Heng and Ruan Xiaoqi were originally in charge of Jiangbian affairs, and Li Li was originally in charge of the Wuwei Army's side, but Gu Haotian and a few people followed Huang Wenbing to this side that day, and he stayed in Jiangzhou to take over Li Jun's task. Just now, Li Li happened to get the news of Tong Meng, so he rushed to the river to inform Zhang Heng, and then the two followed Huang Wenbing's boat across the river.

Soon after Zhang Heng finished speaking, Hou Jian also arrived, he had been keeping an eye on the Huang family for the past two days, and he hurriedly came over to report the news just now, saying that Huang Wenbing had just brought a woman home, and then Huang Wenhua sent him outside the city.

"What kind of yellow-faced Buddha is this guy, but he is a wasp sting all the way, and the people who are indifferent call him a good man!" Zhang Heng said indignantly.

"As expected, the two brothers, Zhang Heng and Li Li, crossed the river and instructed the Tong brothers to keep an eye on the government and send the news across the river immediately if there was any movement from Cai Jiu."

Gu Haotian said to the two, and then instructed Shi Qian to go to Qinglian Temple outside the city to investigate, just as Xue Yong said that he had been there before and knew the way, so he volunteered to go together.

"Brother Li Jun, in my opinion, Cai Jiu will cross the river in the next two days, and that is when we will do it, but I estimate that the Jiangzhou Mansion and the Huang family will have at least thirty or forty people, and we also have a perfect preparation, the most important thing is that the suitable manpower must be sufficient, otherwise it will fall short, and it will hurt Brother Zhang Shun."

Gu Haotian and the others originally planned to start at the Huangjia Courtyard in Jiangzhou City, but this sudden change brought variables to everyone's actions. Qinglian Temple is located outside the city, which is conducive to the movement of everyone, but because of the open terrain and the large number of attachés, it also brings difficulties to the blockade of news. There are only twenty or thirty people in Liangshan, and Gu Haotian is not clear about Jiangzhou's manpower, so he asked Li Jun.

"There are more than 50 people on my side, and the Mu family brothers have more people, and the petty officials don't need to worry about the manpower problem, just give orders."

"I think there are at least more than 100 people, and there are more than 80 people on both sides of you and me, and it is not appropriate for the Mu family brothers to show their faces in the open at present, and they can borrow twenty or thirty of them, and they have to prepare a batch of ships to use, in addition, as soon as this matter is done, there will be a risk of exposure to the people involved, so the family members must be scattered first, but I don't know what the Li Li brothers have done in this matter?"

"What the little official said is reasonable, in the next day, immediately cross the river to meet with everyone, prepare relevant matters, if you can, let the relevant family members go north first tomorrow."

Li Junjian said that he knew that the situation was urgent, so he crossed the river to discuss with everyone at that time.

Another day later, news from all parties converged on the Wuwei Military City, and it was learned that Cai Jiu would go to Qinglian Temple two days later, that is, June 20, to participate in the inauguration ceremony of the new hall.

That night, Gu Haotian left Shi Qian and Xue Yong in Wuwei Military City, and he and Bian Xiang and Li Jun quietly returned to Jieyang Town, and everyone made a final discussion on the rescue of Zhang Shun in Mujiazhuang.

"Since the brothers have no objections, they will act as follows the day after tomorrow: Senior Brother Zheng will turn into a monk from Youfang tomorrow and advance to Qinglian Temple, but Brother Shiqian will sneak in the backyard first, and you will respond to the two of you; The two brothers, Yang Zaixing and Li Li, guarded the east gate and the south gate of the Wuwei Military City respectively, and controlled the city gate at that time to facilitate our entry and exit; The two brothers, Xue Yong and Hou Jian, stayed in the Huang family as internal responses; Ruan Xiaoqi's brothers guarded the docks of Wuwei Army, guarding the ships that responded; The Zhang Heng brothers led people to patrol the river to prevent people from leaking through the river to report the news; The Tong brothers protected the Zhang Shun brothers, and as long as others got on the boat, they would rob people in the river; The brothers of the Mu family, please take someone to guard the Jiangzhou wharf, in case the matter is not successful, there is no way to delay the Jiangzhou officers and soldiers to cross the river, and buy time for us; The rest of the staff went with me to the Qinglian Temple. ”

After everyone agreed, Gu Haotian assigned tasks to everyone, and then went their separate ways.

In the afternoon of the next day, a monk who put an order came to Qinglian Temple, the monks in the temple did not want to stay, but the monk scolded at the door, saying that the family temple of the yellow-faced Buddha was all false names, all treacherous people, and so on, and did not go for a long time, and the temple had no choice but to take it in and place it in the side courtyard. That night, a thin black figure slipped into the courtyard, and he muttered to the monk for a while before leaving.

At noon on the second day, Cai Jiu, the prefect of Jiangzhou, took five or six attachés, dressed in civilian clothes, accompanied by Huang Wenbing, to Qinglian Temple.

"Little official, that guy only brought six people, and there were only more than 20 people including the Huang family."

In a small tea house outside the south gate, Li Junxing rushed over and said to Gu Haotian.

"Presumably, it is also a suspicion that is in the way, but it is thoughtful for us, inform the brothers, Governor Cai is considerate, and everyone acts according to the plan." Gu Haotian quipped.

"Hey, hey! I really can't be cold to the mind of the prefect Cai! Li Jun sneered twice, and then arranged for personnel to pass the order.

Let's say that in Qinglian Temple, when Huang Wenbing led Cai Jiu in, Huang Wenhua was already waiting inside, and the two brothers accompanied him to pretend to walk around the temple, and drank a table of wine together.

At the beginning of the afternoon, Cai Jiu seemed to be drunk, so he broke up the banquet, and Cai Jiu was arranged by the host of the temple to rest in the meditation room in the backyard.

That Cai Jiu staggered into a house in the backyard with the support of Huang Wenbing, and Huang Wenbing said that the adults were tired all day, and the villain was afraid that the monks in the temple would not wait, so he arranged for a girl from the family to be here.

When Cai Jiu saw Huang Wenbing go out, he immediately woke up, only to see him looking at the small and delicate maid standing beside the bed, her two eyes seemed to be about to burst into flames, and there was still a little drunkenness.

"I heard that you sang a good song, and you sang two with me."

It is said that Cai Jiu has been coveting this prey for many days, and today it finally came to his mouth, so can he toss it well. Who knew that the woman dared to ignore him, and he suddenly became a little angry, and he pulled it and moved roughly.

Huang Wenbing hid at the door and listened to the movement inside, secretly proud in his heart, and said in his heart, after all, he couldn't escape from the palm of the master's hand! He smiled wryly, and then slowly left.

About the middle of the day, the monk who placed the order last night, for some reason suddenly made a fuss in front, because there were distinguished guests in the temple, some monks rushed to the front to stop, that is, the two small novices who were guarding the side door also rushed over to see the excitement. And at this moment, some strangers quickly came in from outside, and they quietly entered the meditation room in the backyard.

Let's say that after Huang Wenbing sent Cai Jiu into the room, he came to another room in the backyard to sit and talk with his eldest brother Huang Wenhua. Unexpectedly, just out of the door, there were a few strange men in front of him, he suddenly had an alarm in his heart, and was about to open his mouth to call someone, but he was already a steel knife on his neck, and then he found that the yard was full of unfamiliar faces, and he felt a chill in his heart.

However, Cai Jiu's excitement was even shorter, he just moved his hands and feet to the little lady who sang the song, and found that he was held by a sharp knife on his waist, and then he had no freedom, until the door opened, and when a few more people came in, he was let go, but what awaited him was a more difficult time.

Not long after, a striking and eye-catching official was called to the backyard by the Huang family's subordinates, and when he arrived outside Cai Jiu's room, he heard him shouting angrily: Go and take the Jiang bandit Zhang Shun in the prison here, the old man saw that she was still dead, and then threw out a warrant inside.

When the official was wondering, the Huang family member on the side whispered in his ear, the prefect is angry for the little girl who sings the song, hurry up and lead people, so as not to suffer.

At this time, the official realized that the prefect had come to Qinglian Temple today for this matter, and he wanted to hurry up and escort the Jiang bandit over, maybe it would be another great achievement, so he immediately set off to cross the river.

In this way, until the evening, with the continuous follow-up of the follow-up personnel, Qinglian Temple had all fallen under the control of Gu Haotian and others. At this time, the official who crossed the river took Zhang Shun and got on the boat at the dock in Jiangzhou with several messengers. It's just that when he arrived in the middle of the river, the boat capsized for no reason, and none of the people on board sank to the bottom of the river.

It was already dark when Gu Haotian got the news, and then everyone started to tie up all the unrelated personnel in the whole temple and detain them in a room in the backyard, only taking the Huang brothers and Cai Jiu to the Wuwei Military City.

A group of people sat in the carriage of the Huang family, and came to the south gate, and the guards saw that it was the Huang family's convoy, so they dared to stop the immediate opening of the door and let them go, which made Li Li, who was guarding the city gate, save a lot of effort.

That night, Wuwei Huang's family was attacked by Jiang bandits, the two families suffered countless casualties, and their property was looted. There was a sergeant stationed in the city who chased him to the east gate, who knew that there was a very strong bandit guarding there, dozens of sergeants hit by a gun could not get close, and the casualties in one place were so frightened that no one dared to chase them.

In the end, the gang of bandits left safely by boat from the dock, and no one said where they went, only the next day did they know that the two brothers of the Huang family, one of them was gone, but they were alive and dead.
