Chapter 233: The Storm is Coming
Yan Siqi suddenly slapped his palm on the stone tower on the side, and slapped the stone tower deep into it, and shouted: "You don't want to speak out, if it weren't for the support of Yu Zhigao behind Xu Xinsu, and the mobilization of the Quanzhou Navy Division to encircle and suppress us, how would I Yan Siqi fall to such a point?" Even if you and I join forces, can we defeat Yu Zhigao and the officers and soldiers of the imperial court? ”
Ao Tianxing said: "This is the reason why I want to invite you to come and discuss. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"What do you mean by that?" Yan Siqi asked.
Aotian walked for a while, and said: "Maybe with the strength of you and me, naturally we can't hit Xu Xinsu, but if there is the help of the Inspector Envoy, the matter will be talked about." ”
Yan Siqi was slightly shocked: "According to the envoy? What do you mean by that? Will the government help me at this time? ”
Ao Tianxing said: "Yes, Ao Mou invited you to come this time, just because of the intention of Lord Sun, the deputy envoy of the inspection." ”
Yan Siqi's eyes showed a puzzled look, and he said, "Master Sun? Are you talking about the Sun Yueling who recently took office in Fujian? Hmph, as far as Yan knows, that person is with Xu Xinsu, why did he help me upside down? ”
A smile appeared at the corner of Ao Tianxing's mouth, and he said, "Brother Yan, I don't know anything." That Sun Yueling was not with Xu Xinsu, the reason why he was an enemy of you and others that day was just that he didn't understand the situation at that time, and he was even more bewitched by Xu Xinsu's family. Now that Master Sun has thoroughly understood what happened before and after, and is determined to overturn the case for you, he is now secretly arranging and contacting the twelve chambers of commerce in Fuzhou, ready to take Xu Xinsu down at any time. ”
Yan Siqi's heart shook when he heard this, and said, "Is this true? ”
"When did you deceive Brother Yan?" Ao Tianxing said frankly, "Coming to meet Brother Yan today is also the intention of Lord Sun. ”
Yan Siqi looked directly at him and said, "Then since Sun Yueling wants to help me, why didn't he release my daughter and brother first?" ”
Ao Tianxing shook his head and sighed: "Brother Yan, you are a smart life, you are confused for a while, this is an extraordinary time, if Lord Sun lets your daughter and brother go, won't it be even more suspicious and let the enemy find out?" After a pause, he continued, "When Ao came, Lord Sun confessed that he wanted Brother Yan to let you put ten thousand hearts, your daughter has been placed in the post house and has not been imprisoned, as long as this matter is settled, Lord Sun will release her immediately." ”
Yan Siqi pondered for a while and said, "Since that's the case, what does Sun Yueling want me to do?" ”
Ao Tianxing lowered his voice and said, "Master Sun said that he is secretly deploying and preparing to arrest Xu Xinsu and his gang. But the number of people he can mobilize at this time is limited, and he may not be able to do his best, so Master Sun hopes that Brother Yan can come forward to help and confront Xu Xinsu in the torture hall. ”
Yan Siqi's eyes lit up, and he said coldly: "Okay, as long as Master Sun can return Yan's innocence, Yan is willing to cooperate with him." ”
Ao Tianxing said with a smile: "Brother Yan is really fast-talking, so good, I will go back to Lord Sun immediately, and ask Brother Yan and his brothers to wait for good news here." ”
Yan Siqi nodded and said, "Brother Ao, please." ”
Ao Tianxing arched his hand at him and turned away.
As soon as Aotian Xingfu left, a person jumped out of the Iron Buddha Hall and said to Yan Siqi: "Big brother, can you trust what this person said?" If our brothers and sisters gather here, and the government and yamen send someone to get it, I'm afraid none of us will be able to leave. ”
Yan Siqi showed a solemn look in his eyes, and said, "I have always known that Aotianxing is a person, and he should not deceive me." Besides, if that Sun Yueling is really willing to help us, this may not be our chance to make a comeback. Stretched out his hand and patted the man on the shoulder, and said, "Zhenji, we have no way out, whether it is a dragon or a worm, it depends on this risk." ”
……
According to the Yamen of the Inspectorate Division, Sun Yueling was working on some official documents.
Dongfang Shengping came in and said, "My lord, Aotianxing's side has been arranged, and Yan Siqi is already waiting in Kaiyuan Temple." ”
Sun Yueling nodded and said, "Got it, tell Li He to get ready, and I'll do it tonight." ”
Dongfang Shengping answered the order and went out.
Sun Yueling put down the charcoal in his hand, lay on his back on the sandalwood chair, closed his eyes and pondered, thinking about what had happened in the recent past.
Since deciding to arrest Xu Xinsu, he has scattered all the power he can muster, secretly arranging everything. After several days of investigation, his subordinates have preliminarily ascertained the fact that Xu Xinsu planted false accusations against others and cracked down on maritime merchants.
Of course, just by holding the evidence in his hands now, I am afraid that Xu Xinsu will not be completely convicted. However, Sun Yueling believes that as long as he is arrested, under severe interrogation, and with the testimony of Yan Siqi, Zhou Wenxi and others, Xu Xinsu will not be able to escape the punishment of the law.
However, today's evidence can only bring down Xu Xinsu, and I am afraid that it will not involve the big backers behind him, Yu Zhigao and Zhang Ruzhen, and even Fu Dapeng, the criminal servant in his yamen, is difficult to convict. What worries him even more is that at this critical moment, maybe Yu Zhigao and others will come out to make a difference, and now he has very limited manpower, so in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, he has to rely on Yan Siqi's external force.
Sun Yueling thought very clearly, if Xu Xinsu really resisted, or even if Yu Zhigao directly sent troops to intervene, he could let Yan Siqi intervene in the name of the bitter master, so as to help him capture Xu Xinsu. As for Aotianxing being able to take the initiative to ask for help at this time, it is naturally very good, Xu Xinsu was originally a person from their Aotianmen, and the people in his own door can stand up to clean up the portal and eradicate the traitors, which can also be justified.
Therefore, there is no room for loss tonight, and we must do our best to win Xu Xinsu in one fell swoop.
Thinking of this, Sun Yueling stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the cloudy sky outside. In the past few days, there has been a strong wind on the sea, which is sweeping all the way along the harbor, and under the influence of this, I am afraid that Fuzhou will soon have a downpour.
The fierce sea breeze whined and whined outside the window, swirling and overturning, as if countless unjust souls were crying about the sins and injustices of the world. Countless trees swayed from side to side under the erosion of the strong wind, unable to support them, and seemed to be about to break at any moment.
The streets were covered with dust and debris, and even the tiles on the roofs were lifted by the strong wind and fell to the side with a whistling sound.
The whole heaven and earth were in chaos, and they became darker and darker.
Sun Yueling looked at the stormy scene outside, and sighed in his heart, he couldn't imagine that the night when he decided to act ushered in the invasion of the fierce sea breeze.
Let the storm come harder, he cried in his heart.
I don't know how long it was, but it was already dark outside the window. Dongfang Shengping and Li He suddenly walked in from outside the door, and Li He said to him: "My lord, Fu Dapeng and Li Zhunxing mobilized most of the people in the yamen and went in the direction of Gudong Street. ”
Sun Yueling exclaimed: "What? Who made them do this? How dare they do this without my command? ”
Li He's face was full of panic and said, "This ...... Isn't it an order from an adult? ”
Sun Yueling was so angry that he slapped the table and said angrily: "Fu Dapeng dared to mobilize the yamen without telling me, it is simply unreasonable!" Then he thought of something, and said to Li He, "Where did you say they went?" ”
Li He said: "Go in the direction of Gudong Street." ”
"Not good." Sun Yueling's heart shook wildly, Kaiyuan Temple is behind Gudong Street, it is the habitat of Yan Siqi's group, Fu Dapeng went to Gudong Street, undoubtedly to find trouble with Yan Siqi, could it be that someone leaked the news? He shouted at the two of them, "Hurry up and gather all the people, act immediately, and follow me to Kaiyuan Temple." Also, you immediately notify Ao Tianxing and Zhou Wenxi and let them bring someone over! ”
With that, he stepped out of the door and ran in the direction of Gudong Street.
……
"Boom", a thunder sounded in the sky, and then a lightning bolt crossed, and the terrible white light illuminated the Iron Buddha Hall in the darkness, reflecting the figures of dozens of men in ragged clothes and swords, but with the disappearance of this light, the Iron Buddha Hall immediately returned to black silence, and Hesse could not see anything.
In the hall, Li Kuiqi said to Yan Siqi: "Big brother, didn't the bird official say that he was going to do it tonight, why didn't anyone come at this time?" ”
Yan Siqi was about to answer, and Chen Xinji, a think tank under his command, said: "Isn't it that the wind is strong tonight, and the rainstorm is coming, so Lord Sun has changed his mind?" Such a night is really not suitable for hands, and I am afraid that he will have to change the date. ”
Yan Siqi's face was calm, and he said, "Wait, since we have promised them, we can't break our promises." ”
When they heard him say this, they stopped talking, but waited patiently.
After a while, a person in charge of letting off the wind at the mountain gate outside the hall suddenly ran back and shouted in a low voice: "Big brother, someone is coming." ”
Chen Xinji hurriedly asked, "How many people came?" ”
The man said: "There are about a dozen people here, led by a civil official, and I can't see it very clearly from a distance. ”
Chen Xinji said to Yan Siqi: "Big brother, it seems that Master Sun is really here." ”
Yan Siqi nodded and said, "Everyone is ready, let's go immediately." According to his discussion with Ao Tianxing in the past two days, Sun Yueling sent someone to Kaiyuan Temple to meet them, and then went to Xu Xinsu's house in Fuzhou together to capture him. Therefore, Yan Siqi and his subordinates have been waiting in Kaiyuan Temple since last night, ready to serve Sun Yueling at any time.
Hearing the order of the eldest brother in the lead, the dozens of people in the Iron Buddha Hall immediately woke up and were ready to go out at any time.
Li Kuiqi suddenly frowned, and said, "Big brother, listening to this footsteps, I'm afraid there are more than a dozen people, right?" ”
Yan Siqi felt a pang in his heart when he heard this, and hurriedly gathered his ears and listened carefully, only to hear the sound of dense footsteps at the temple gate and on both sides of the courtyard wall outside, and couldn't help shouting: "It's not good, I'm afraid things have changed." ”
Because of his trust in Ao Tianxing, coupled with the howling wind outside, he had not deliberately paid attention to the footsteps outside, and after listening carefully, he finally found that the entire temple wall was surrounded by people, and it was obvious that he had been surrounded by people.
Chen Xinji exclaimed: "What? ”
Li Kuiqi shouted violently and shouted: "My grandmother, let's surround the officials."
As soon as these words fell, everyone became frightened, and the hall immediately became noisy.
Chen Xinji looked at Yan Siqi and said with a look of surprise: "Could it be that we were coaxed by that Lord Sun?" ”
"When is it, you still call this dog official Sun, this must be a ploy set up by that dog official, who wants to wipe us out!" Li Kuiqi was furious.
Everyone echoed and scolded Sun Yueling for being despicable and shameless, and even resorted to such tricks to deceive them.
Yan Siqi shouted in a deep voice: "Shut up for me." ”
When they saw him shouting angrily, they all stopped talking. Yan Siqi is their eldest brother, and they have always respected this eldest brother, and they obey his orders.
Yan Siqi's eyes swept over everyone's faces one by one in the darkness, and said, "Now that there are all officials outside, if you want to live, keep calm and follow my orders." ”
Even when he spoke like this, everyone's hearts were cold, and they couldn't imagine that things would develop into such a situation.
Yan Siqi felt a burst of hatred in his heart, but he didn't expect that he would come with sincerity, but he was still deceived by others. According to his understanding of Ao Tianxing, this person would never be a despicable and cunning person, and it was very likely that he was also bewitched and deceived by Sun Yueling's family, so he came to persuade him.
Now, I can only blame myself for being too careless and not being able to meet that Sun Gouguan in person, so that I might be able to see through his strange tricks from his words and demeanor.
Yan Siqi sighed secretly, it didn't matter if he died, but after affecting these brothers who had followed him for many years, he couldn't bear it in his heart and felt sad in his heart.
Say whatever you say today, you have to do your best to protect the brothers from escaping, and one by one is counted as one.
Thinking of this, Yan Siqi was determined to die in his heart, but instead poured into unparalleled enthusiasm and pride, and he was full of joy.
At this time, someone outside suddenly shouted, saying: "Zhang Ruzhen, the left political participant in Fujian, is here, and the Yan thief has not come out quickly to die!" ”
Yan Siqi was surprised when he heard this, why did it come to Zhang Ruzhen, who participated in politics on the left, and not Sun Yueling, the deputy envoy of the Imperial Inspectorate?
He listened carefully, lowered his voice and said to everyone: "After I go out, I will attack the person led by the other party with all my strength, after you see me move, immediately all of them will break through to the left courtyard wall, where the defense is the weakest, after you climb the courtyard wall, one of them is one, flee with all your strength, don't look back." ”
Chen Xinji said: "Big brother, what about you?" How do you escape? ”
Yan Siqi smiled heroically and looked around at everyone: "Since you have followed the eldest brother, when have you ever seen the eldest brother being caught?" Although there are countless capable people in this world, as long as I want to leave, I'm afraid no one can keep me! ”
Chen Xinji still wanted to speak, and said, "Big brother......"
Yan Siqi patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "It's decided like this, take the brothers to break through, don't let me down." With that, he strode towards the temple gate. (To be continued.) )
