Chapter 224: The Siege

(Thanks, casual ronin, bean bag Zhang Xiaoshuai, Bunian floating sama, GYT525300 the rewards and monthly passes of several brothers.) )

Yang Shenjin, who woke up from a nap, was refreshed, but when he remembered that Wang Yuan had obstructed the progress of the case, his heart was troubled, and he returned to a bad mood. After washing his face, he decided to go to the front office to ask about urging Pei Dunfu to be escorted. When he arrived at the hanging door of the back house, he saw more than a dozen soldiers leaning against the wall and napping horizontally.

"A bunch of bastards, they know how to be lazy and slippery, and they sleep here when they are on duty, and if there are assassins in the courtyard of this official, you probably won't know it. Roll up, roll up, stuff, get back and clean up after you. ”

The soldiers were so frightened that they hurriedly got up, some of them were drowsy and didn't know what was happening, and some of them were still salivating from the corners of their mouths, and they were extremely embarrassed.

The fire captain of the team leader hurriedly stepped forward to make amends, and said while confessing: "Yang Shangshu is angry, the villain and the others just took a nap, and they didn't sleep for an hour or two on duty last night, and the brothers can't hold it anymore." But the villain and others have been on the alert, and no one can enter your yard. ”

Yang Shen scolded: "Do you say that if there is no one, there is no one? No one knows when the old man walks to you, if it weren't for a beating and scolding, you would still be dreaming of the Spring and Autumn Festival. ”

Huo Chang was speechless, peeking behind Yang Shenjin, but did not notice the figure of Wang Yuan who was advancing soon, and said suspiciously: "Yang Shangshu, Deputy Envoy Wang went in to meet you, why didn't you see him follow you out?" ”

Yang Shenjin frowned and said, "Deputy Envoy Wang has come to see me?" When? ”

"Not long ago, about half an hour ago, I brought a guard to meet you, I told him that Yang Shangshu was taking a nap, and he said that he was waiting for you to wake up in your yard. Why didn't you see him? ”

Yang Shenjin blinked and frowned: "It's strange, no one reported it." Nie Laosan, Tian Laoba, haven't you been in the yard all the time? Didn't see them. ”

Nie Laosan is Nie Jiangchuan, the third of the Ten Tigers of the Xiangfu, and Tian Laoba is Tian Bin of the Ten Tigers of the Xiangfu, both of them are Yang Shenjin's closest guards, thin and lean, his temples bulge, and the muscles on his body bulge Nie Jiangchuan frowned and said: "I didn't see it, I will sit in the shade of the tree in the courtyard when Shangshu is resting, and anyone who enters the courtyard can see it." Eighth, have you seen it? ”

Tian Bin shook his head and said, "I didn't see it." ”

"How is that possible? The brothers testified that everyone saw the king's deputy envoy go in, but there was no one to be seen. Huo Chang said in surprise.

Yang Shenjin frowned, turned his head to look at the path behind him, his eyes wandered, looked in the direction of the courtyard in the west, and suddenly shouted: "Nie Laosan, go and see if there are any traces." ”

Nie Jiangchuan turned around and led a few people to search carefully along the road they came, and finally someone shouted under the western wall: "There are traces of grass blades being trampled down here, but it is not obvious." It looks like a person has stepped on it, but I can't be sure. ”

Yang Shenjin turned around to look at the traces, more than a dozen green leaves were trampled on, but he couldn't see the direction. Yang Shenjin raised his head and looked around, and said in a deep voice: "Follow me to the Xishou courtyard to check." ”

Yang Shenjin led a group of people to the gate of the courtyard where Li Yong was being held in Xishou, and was slightly relieved to see that the guards in front of the courtyard were still there. In order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, Yang Shenjin still decided to go into the house to have a look. Walking to the door of the house, there was a sudden bang, the tiles on the roof flew horizontally, and a gray figure rose up in the air and quickly sank into the canopy of the locust tree. And Tian Bin also reacted quickly and threw himself into the house.

Yang Shenjin also reacted, rushed to the door of the house and looked inside, but saw that the house was dusty, and a beam of sunlight slanted down from the big hole in the roof, and the dust in the pillar of light was dancing and chaotic.

"Where is Li Yong?" Yang Shenjin shouted loudly.

In the dust, Li Yong's calm figure appeared in the pillar of light, and said lightly: "The criminal minister is here." ”

Yang Shenjin breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said in a low voice: "Chase." ”

Hearing this, Nie Jiangchuan's body bounced up like a spring, jumped into the air, climbed the edge of the hole in the roof, turned his body to the roof, and disappeared in an instant. Yang Shenjin looked back at Li Yong, forced him to look at him, and said, "Who was here just now." ”

Li Yong smiled slightly and said, "Who is there?" I'm the only one here. ”

Yang Shen snorted coldly: "Nonsense, what's the matter with the hole in the roof, the official saw someone from inside the house on the roof with his own eyes, and said, who came to you for a secret meeting?" Are you trying to escape from prison? ”

Li Yong laughed and said: "Yang Shangshu, why haven't I seen anyone in the house, the hole in the roof has already been there, have you seen someone on the roof?" I'm afraid I've seen a ghost. ”

Yang Shenjin's face turned pale, and he snorted coldly and ordered: "Escort him to my courtyard to guard, and arrange manpower in the house, and he is not allowed to have contact with anyone." ”

Several soldiers pushed and shoved Li Yong out, and Yang Shenjin covered his nose in the house and turned around, but found nothing suspicious, so he had to exit the house and come to the courtyard. After a while, the roof tiles sounded softly, and Nie Jiangchuan appeared on the roof and jumped to the ground.

"What, did you catch it?" Yang Shen asked hurriedly.

"Humble and incompetent, chased and lost. The other party did a brilliant job, chased a few streets and lost his trace, and he was afraid that Shangshu would be in a hurry, so he rushed back to report. Nie Jiangchuan looked ashamed.

Yang Shenjin was unhappy in his heart, but he couldn't scold Nie Jiangchuan either, so he nodded and said, "It's okay, the monk can't run the temple, let's rush to the pavilion immediately and see how he hides the exposed horses' feet." Prepare the horse. ”

Dozens of knights and soldiers rode their horses and galloped, and the streets were suddenly chaotic, and the people couldn't dodge, the baskets they were carrying and the burdens they were carrying rolled to the ground, crying for their fathers and mothers. The pavilion is not far from the county office, and it is time to ride a horse and run wildly to make tea. The post guard of the pavilion didn't know what to do, and when he saw a group of soldiers coming to the door in a rage, a post guard hurriedly stepped forward to ask why.

Yang Shenjin didn't care, and pointed to the door with a horsewhip and said, "Go in and find it." ”

Everyone dismounted one after another, and the post guard was still waiting for detailed inquiries, Tian Bin kicked him a few times, holding his stomach and shrinking to the side and not daring to speak. The soldiers broke into the hall with great momentum, and went straight to the backyard along the wooden corridor behind the hall, knowing that Wang Yuan lived in the courtyard of Dongshou, and everyone went straight to the courtyard of Dongshou and surrounded the gate of the courtyard.

Inside, Wang Dahei, Zhang Wulang and others heard the movement, and hurriedly rushed to the gate of the courtyard to check, and saw a group of soldiers rushing into the courtyard violently, and suddenly shouted in shock. Wang Dahei didn't know where to find a machete, crossed his chest, glared menacingly, and scolded with a strange voice.

"What for? This is the residence of the deputy envoy of the imperial court, what are you going to do? Zhang Wulang shouted.

Nie Jiangchuan said coldly: "Get out of the way for me, I'm going to see your deputy envoy later." ”

"Who are you? See that the king's deputy envoy is what you look like? I see you have bad intentions. ”

Nie Jiangchuan shouted: "I don't have time to talk nonsense with you, get out of the way, otherwise don't blame us for being polite." ”

Zhang Wulang said with a horizontal knife: "We are responsible for guarding the safety of the deputy envoy of the king, and you have bad intentions, so you will step on our corpse and go in." ”

Nie Jiangchuan sneered: "You brought it on yourself. With a wave of his big hand, he shouted: "Chong, whoever stands in the way will be knocked down directly, don't give Lao Tzu a soft hand." ”

All the soldiers shouted in unison, waving their blades and rushing inward, Wang Dahei waved his machete and blocked the door, and roared strangely: "Whoever his mother dares to come in, your black father cut off his hair." ”

Poor speech skills, unable to use the vocabulary learned, and unable to distinguish between head and hair, resulting in such bullshit sentences. But no one cared that his words did not make sense, and they all understood what he meant. Tian Bin and Wang Dahei fought together, and scolded: ", Lao Tzu slashed you with a knife." ”

Raise the knife to cut the head, Wang Dahei raised the machete to block, the two knives touched, making a tooth-aching sound of hitting and dragging, the people around saw that they moved, and rushed up with noise, and some soldiers had begun to climb over the wall to the courtyard.

Zhang Wulang and the others couldn't hold the door and take care of the wall, so they had to shout and retreat, and the soldiers rushed into the courtyard in a rush of soldiers, and the sword light was forced onto the steps of the hall. Just when I couldn't parry, I suddenly heard someone shouting in the hall: "Stop me, what's the matter?" ”

In the eyes of everyone, Wang Yuan, who was neatly dressed, appeared on the steps at the entrance of the hall with a gloomy face.
