"Jinyiwei from Beijing actually arrived here? Did they know something? The young man who threatened the Qu Prefect's Mansion that day looked thoughtful, and gently tapped on the table beside him and said. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

This is a mansion located in the remote part of Pingle City, and it is also an important stronghold of the White Lotus Sect here. As a very critical point in this operation, used to cut off the location of Guangxi and the outside world, the White Lotus Sect still attaches great importance to Pingle Mansion City, not only did he, the young master, force Qu Feng to submit, but he also stayed here temporarily to prevent any accidents.

That's right, this young man is Xu Jinghong's other son - Xu Chongshan. That is, the guy who had some relationship with Yang Zhen in Zhuji County before, but the two sides did not really meet.

In Jiangnan and Huguang before, the White Lotus Sect failed to design several times because of the intervention of Jinyiwei, that is, Yang Zhen. Moreover, in this way, their power in those places was exposed under the nose of the government, and in desperation, the White Lotus Sect had to shrink its strength and hide in the southwestern provinces where the government's power was the weakest, and made preparations for several years.

It was precisely because of the failure of the previous plans that the people of the White Lotus Sect paid more attention to the overall plan and decided to make a big move. So in the past few years, they have fallen silent, only cultivating forces in secret, and eroding those Tusi forces in the southwest little by little.

It wasn't until this year, when Zhang Juzheng suddenly resigned and the imperial court's control over the local government fell to its lowest point, that they finally decided to do it. Yang Yinglong in Banzhou, Sichuan, is an important target for them to prepare for rebellion, and Guangxi also has a very important position as a territory that Xu Jinghong has operated for many years.

But now, things have just begun, and there is a leak on the Banzhou side, and Jinyiwei from Beijing has actually appeared in Pingle, which will naturally make Xu Chongshan feel a little nervous and surprised.

"Probably not." Sun Zan, a middle-aged man, has his own judgment: "If they really noticed something, it wouldn't be just a few people." Moreover, they were looking for Na Qu Feng just to ask him to help find an old way. ”

"Really?" Xu Chongshan's heart calmed down a little, but then he said with some uncertainty: "Then you say, Qu Feng, will he tell those Jinyi guards about it?" That's what worries him the most.

"This one should be even more unlikely. Who is Jin Yiwei, he knows better than us, if he does, they will only be the first to suspect him, and take him and torture him, is he so stupid? Also, his family is still in our hands, so he doesn't have the guts! ”

"Well, there's some truth to that." After agreeing with the dots, Xu Chongshan's brows did not loosen because of this, and he knocked on the table again with some uneasiness: "But it's not a good thing for these people to stay in Pingle City." Jin Yiwei is a dog, and his nose is very smart, and if he is not careful, we will be discovered by them. "I have suffered losses under Jinyiwei several times, which makes Xu Chongshan very jealous of these guys.

"Young master, don't worry, I have already asked Qu Feng to do this. He was an official, and it wasn't too difficult for him to send them away. Sun Zan told Qu Feng what he had instructed him before.

Xu Chongshan showed a satisfied look at this time: "Very good, I hope they can leave here as soon as possible." But then, a trace of worry rose to his heart: "These brocade guards are not easy to deal with, we must be more cautious." Well, you find a few who are good at stalking and tracking, and keep an eye on them over there to see if they leave any tails here. If they do......" At this point, his voice froze, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

Sun Zan nodded clearly: "Understood, I will arrange for someone to keep an eye on them." "They have been operating in Pingle for a long time, and there are really a lot of people who can use them, otherwise they can't easily coerce a court prefect.

It wasn't until everything was arranged that Xu Chongshan was a little relieved: "I hope there won't be any mistakes this time, my father has waited too long for today, and we must not lose again!" ”

Under the double pressure of the Jinyi Guard and the White Lotus Sect, Qu Zhifu was really concerned about the search for Zhang Tianqian's clues this time. In the past few days, almost none of the people in the government have done any other errands, and they have patronized the city to look for clues left by this old man.

In this regard, the people in the yamen are a little puzzled, I don't know what kind of madness the prefect has, and he would put so much energy into finding people. But since this is an errand that the adults have forced down, they can only try their best to find it.

However, many things in the world are not successful by trying their best, although the government has done its best, and even used the eyes of those ruffians and the like among the people, but in the end, because of the time gap, it still failed to find the exact clue.

The only clue that might be credible is that there was a soldier guarding the West Gate who remembered seeing such a Taoist priest a few years ago. Because the Taoist helped someone hold a loose horse at that time, he remembered it. And as far as he remembered, after the Taoist helped people, he left Pingle City.

Finally had a little clue, and he could give Yang Zhen a little explanation, Qu Feng immediately went to the inn to see Yang Zhen and told the news he had gotten. At the end, he said: "As far as the soldier said, that person should go straight to the hinterland of Guangxi." But because he hadn't used it or anything, we don't know exactly where he was going...... Although there are not many people in Guangxi, the place is not small, so it is ......"

"I understand, it seems that if you want to find him, you have to continue to go inside." Yang Zhen said and smiled and arched his hand at the other party: "This time, I have a lot of help from the Qu Governor's Mansion, and I will remember it in my heart, and I will definitely repay it in the future." ”

"Lord Yang is serious, it is an honor for the lower officials to help the adults, and I dare not say any credit." Qu Feng said, and asked tentatively: "But I don't know when the adults plan to continue west?" ”

Yang Zhen's eyes flashed, but he didn't break anything, just smiled and said: "Since we have a clue, we will naturally not stay here for a long time, and we will leave this place tomorrow." ”

Although he didn't say anything, Qu Feng's eyes still showed a hint of joy, and this did not escape Yang Zhen's eyes.

The next morning, the horse team of Jinyiwei, who had rested in this inn for four or five days, finally set off again, and since they knew that Zhang Tianqian was heading west, they naturally would not continue to stay here.

Seeing the carriages heading down the long street towards the west gate under the escort of dozens of capable men, the faces of the few White Lotus Sect disciples who stayed outside to keep an eye on them all showed relaxed smiles.

But soon, they realized that something was wrong, because not long after the brocade guards left, several men dressed like those men came out of the inn, and after muttering a few words, some went out, and some turned inside.

"This ...... Do they really have tails here? A dark-faced man muttered quietly.

"What the hell are they thinking? Is there any suspicion about this? ”

"No, we will never allow these guys to spoil the great affairs of the Holy Sect. Since they won't go, we have no choice but to give them a ride. The black-faced man smirked, and pressed his hand to his waist, and under the cover of his clothes, there was a short knife inside.

"Let's do it tonight!" The others laughed murderously. This is their territory, and even the prefect's yamen can let them come and go, let alone such a small inn.

"Well, that's it. Also, tell the brothers who are following them to follow first, and we must wait until the person who is sure of them is really out of Pingle before we can do it, otherwise we are afraid that we will be startled. The black-faced man was quite cautious, and commanded.

Guangxi is mountainous, even if it has just left Pingle Fu City, this official road has quickly become narrow and rugged, which makes Yang Zhen and his party can only line up in a long line to move forward, and can no longer ride forward in parallel as before. And those carriages are even more difficult to walk at the moment, and on the rough roads, they can only be slowed down as much as possible to ensure stability.

Yang Zhen rode his horse and walked in the middle of the group, and suddenly he paused thoughtfully, then said hello to the people around him, and then dismounted and walked towards the roadside woods.

Obviously, he was in a hurry to make it easier, which was an extremely ordinary thing in the rush team at this time. The sights of the few men who were quietly following them did not arouse their vigilance.

They didn't even put much energy into the sudden departure of the team, just hiding behind a roadside rock, waiting for the team to go a long way, and then follow. They are accustomed to walking on such trails, so they can keep up with their horses even on foot, which they can't run on at all.

But they didn't realize that the guy who had left the group had completely disappeared as soon as he approached the woods. When they realized that something was wrong, a strong wind suddenly came from their side, and Yang Zhen, who was obviously quite far away from them just now, had sneaked up to them at some point.

"Bang!" Before these people could react, Yang Zhen had already smashed a fist into the chest of one of them, knocking them sideways. Then, with the momentum of this punch, the man had already rushed into the middle of the five stalkers, and under a flurry of punches and kicks, all of them fell to the ground in an instant, and they were easily knocked out by him before they could even pull out the knives they were wearing at their waists.

After all, these stalkers were only the lowest level of the White Lotus Sect, so they were naturally not his opponents for the Brocade Guard.
