Chapter 587: Variables
Tang Tai, as the guard of Yumen Pass, is in charge of the seven folding mansions in Yumen Pass, and his status is naturally needless to say, he has the highest service in Yumen Pass. Again, the best place to stay.
Of course, the best house in Yumen Pass and Guanzhong can't be compared, there is a set of two-entry yards here, not to mention three-in, three-entry courtyards are out of print here, only Tang Tai has a set, or a mini version.
Compared with the large courtyard of Chen Fei's house, it is more than half smaller.
But even so, Tang Tai still felt very satisfied, who has such a luxurious courtyard in this place?
The east wing of the courtyard is separated independently, and there is a special person living in it, and if there is nothing to do, Tang Tai will not easily walk in.
"Knock knock!" Tang Tai knocked on the door and said respectfully: "Sect leader, Chen Fei has arrived in Dunhuang, we... Do you want to find a way to control him? ”
"Oh? Already in Dunhuang? The door was pushed open, and a black-robed man appeared in front of Tang Tai. Tang Tai, as the general of Yumen Pass, didn't even dare to breathe in front of this black-robed man.
"Yes, I just arrived this morning, and my subordinates just got the news."
The black-robed man frowned deeply, "So unfortunate? ”
Tang Tai was puzzled, "Sect leader, how... Coincidentally? ”
The sect leader glanced at Tang Tai and sighed: "I don't have any pills in my hand anymore, the sect disciples have expanded a lot during this time, as early as ten days ago, I finished distributing the pills in my hand, if you want pills, I'm afraid you have to find the sect leader or deputy sect leader." ”
"What? Running out? Tang Tai also frowned: "Sect Master, can you still contact the Sect Master now?" If you want to control Chen Fei, I'm afraid you can only ....... now."
"Humph!" The sect leader snorted coldly, and Tang Tai was silent for a moment. "Tang Tai, are you deliberately teasing me? Don't you know that the sect leader went to Tibet more than a month ago, and the deputy sect leader also went to the Western Regions fifteen days ago. It's a thousand kilometers away from them, and you don't know their exact location, so how do you let me contact the sect leader? ”
Tang Tai could only smile bitterly, he also knew that it was basically difficult for the elders in the church to contact the sect leader or deputy sect leader through himself.
Only when the sect leader or deputy sect leader comes back and wants to be contacted, will they be notified to the level of elder protectors, and they will have the opportunity to communicate with the sect leader himself.
When the sect leader or deputy sect leader is out on a mission, they basically cut off unilateral contact. Because... Afraid of being a traitor, expose your whereabouts!
Of course, there are very few cronies who know their exact location and destination. It's a pity that this black-robed man is not a close confidant, so he doesn't know how to find the sect leader.
What's more, what if you find the sect leader? The two places are more than 2,000 kilometers apart, so do you have to ask the sect leader to come back and deliver a pill in person? Is it possible? Is it realistic?
"Then we have only... Relinquishing control? Go with the flow? Tang Tai asked.
The black-robed man frowned and thought for a while, and said, "Actually, you don't have to be too nervous, I think this Chen Fei didn't come this time because he discovered our whereabouts, most likely because of bandits outside the gate." ”
"Bandits outside the gates?" Tang Tai's expression moved: "You mean ......."
"Well, I'm afraid that Li Shimin knows what those small countries are doing secretly, and he plans to take action. So we don't have to worry too much, the spearhead is against those small countries, we just need to keep a low profile and don't reveal our identities. Remember, after Chen Fei arrives at Yumen Pass, you try to cooperate with him as much as possible, and don't let him find out that something is wrong! ”
"Yes!" Tang Tai responded.
"Alright, you go down." The black runner waved Tang Tai away, closed the door, and returned to the house.
"Whew!" After Tang Tai left the East Wing, he exhaled deeply, turned around and glared viciously at the room where the black running man lived, and snorted in a low voice: "Cut!" Isn't it just an envoy under the sect master? It's not the sect leader or the deputy sect leader, what is there to put on a score? Hum! When I make a meritorious service, I will definitely trample you to the ground! ”
With that, Tang Tai shook his hand and walked out of the courtyard and went out of the customs with a team of guards.
"Someone stalking me?" Chen Fei lay on the bed and looked at the note in his hand, frowning deeply.
The note flew in from the window, and it was recognizable from the handwriting that Yin Ping had told him.
Yin Ping's anti-reconnaissance ability is very strong, and he generally can't make mistakes, since he said that someone is following him, then someone must be sneaking behind!
"It seems that my hunch is quite accurate, and there are really people who want to be unfavorable to me, it's really strange, Your Majesty didn't say what I was doing in Yumen Pass, right? How did you get targeted? And it was only when he arrived in Dunhuang that he was targeted. The people staring at me must be from the Western Regions, but I don't know which force they come from and what their purpose is........ Kindness? Wrong! Chen Fei suddenly thought of a possibility, and a layer of cold sweat broke out behind his back!
He had just entered Dunhuang, and someone was eyeing him so soon, in addition to being able to judge that the person was from the west, he could also draw a conclusion, that is, ....... There are spies within the court! Or a spy who communicates with a certain force in the west!
Just imagine, he rushed all the way from Chang'an, although the speed is not much, but it is okay. The other party knew so quickly that he was back at Yumen Pass and was waiting in Dunhuang, so he must have passed on this news before he set off, or just when he set off. Otherwise, there would not be a situation where the message would be delivered faster than his feet.
The most important thing is that Chen Fei came to Yunmen Pass this time to be very low-key, so low-key that Li Shimin did not announce his punishment results to the public at all, and people who didn't know thought that he was locked up in the strange workshop to develop thunderbolt fire, and even on the day of the trip, only Li Shen was entrusted by Linchuan to send him off, not to mention others, ordinary people don't know about it at all.
People who knew it, such as Cheng Yanjin, Li Jing and others, also came to see him off.
Why? Didn't His Majesty give a gag order?
But when His Majesty issued a gag order, his whereabouts were still leaked so quickly, what can it only mean?
It shows that the other party has a very good background, and has even infiltrated the upper echelons of the imperial court!
Just imagine, the hostile forces have extended their hands to the top of the Tang Dynasty, and they themselves don't know anything about it, what a terrifying thing?
The most important thing is that Chen Fei can't judge whether the other party has guessed the purpose of his trip, if he knows, and these people who are staring at him are sent by Gao Changguo, it will be troublesome, and the next action will definitely be extremely difficult, and it can even be said that it is almost difficult to complete!
The other party doesn't need to do anything, can't it be better to walk around yourself?
Do you want proof? Oh, dream! If I don't give it to you, what can you do!
"Damn it!" Chen Fei felt a trace of anxiety in his heart, he was about to reach his destination, he originally had a rough plan, but this temporary incident disrupted his original plan!
What to do? Chilled salad!
Chen Fei gritted his teeth, pinned the pistol to his waist, carefully got out of bed and got dressed, pushed open a crack in the door, swept out, and after confirming that there was no one on the surface, he cautiously walked out of the room and gently knocked on the door next door.......
