Chapter 244 Looking for the envoy of the Jin Kingdom
At this time, Cheng Peng, who was dragged to the corner, shook off Hu Xingan's hand and said angrily: "What are you doing!" ”
Although Hu Xing'an was also a little angry, the person in front of him was the second prince after all, so he said patiently: "Didn't you see those guards with swords just now?" ”
Cheng Peng asked suspiciously, "What if you see it?" ”
Looking at Cheng Peng's puzzled expression, Hu Xingan said: "Second prince, Qi Country is different from our Jin Kingdom, they have no strong enemies, so no matter which guards in the national capital are, they can only wear swords at most, and if they can wear swords in Qi Kingdom, they must all be members of the royal family, we are going to build momentum, so we must not have conflicts with them!" ”
Cheng Peng thought for a while and said, "Okay, I didn't think it through, now hurry up and go to the cloth store to buy me a piece of clothing, I am itchy to wear this coarse linen clothes!" ”
At this time, Li Yao's guards suddenly thought that he had seen the two of them at the gate of the palace, and they were the envoys of the Jin Kingdom, but now the envoys of the Jin Kingdom were not locked up in the courtyard? How did they get out? The guard suddenly reacted: "This is a big deal, you have to report it to Lord Hou quickly!" ”
The guard walked quickly to the side of the carriage and said to Yu Linlin: "Master, I have something important to report to Master Hou, can I take the first step!" ”
Yu Linlin also knew that these guards wouldn't talk nonsense, so she nodded and said, "Then you can go back quickly, don't delay the important matter!" ”
The guards retreated and rushed to the Hou Mansion!
Because horses are not allowed in the national capital, the guards chose a shortcut to return home!
Li Yao was preparing to go out to continue recruiting talents at this time, he just got the news, and the poetry meeting was about to start in a few days, so he had to prepare well, and then recruit some talents for his own use!
At this time, the guards had already rushed over, Li Yao looked at his guards running over panting, and asked, "What's wrong?" How to be so flustered! ”
The guards told me what they had just met with the envoy of the Jin Kingdom! Li Yao exclaimed: "Isn't there a guard guarding that courtyard?" How did those two people get out? ”
The guard said, "When I saw them just now, they were dressed in coarse linen clothes, and I think they escaped in disguise as subordinates!" ”
Li Yao hurriedly stood up and said, "You go and inform Yu Zhong and ask him to go to the courtyard to meet me!" ”
The guards took the order and left.
Li Yao rushed to the courtyard where the envoy of the Jin Kingdom lived with the guards, and Li Yao wanted to make sure that these two people were really gone!
Li Yao came to the courtyard in a hurry, and when the guards at the door saw that it was Li Yao coming, they bowed down and said, "See Master Hou!" ”
At this time, Yu Zhong was also called here by the guards, and Yu Zhong asked, "Brother-in-law, what's wrong?" You called me over in such a hurry! ”
Li Yao said: "Brother-in-law, you can go in with me and have a look!" ”
Yu Zhong didn't understand what Li Yao was talking about, but he still said to the guards guarding the door: "Open the door!" ”
After the guards opened the door, Li Yao was the first to go in, and those people from the Jin State envoy group saw that someone had come in, and they all looked over!
After Li Yao entered the courtyard, he shouted: "Cheng Peng, Hu Xing'an, you come out!" ”
At this time, no one from the Jin envoy group answered, and Li Yao said to the guards behind him: "Go into the house and search!" ”
Seeing that Li Yao was so arrogant, the people of the Jin State envoy group spoke one after another: "Why are you searching our room!" ”
Li Yao shouted: "The knife is out of the sheath, if you dare to stop it, there will be no mercy!" ”
Li Yao's guards are all experienced in a hundred battles, and the moment they pulled out their swords, they were all bloody, and the people of the Jin State Envoy Group didn't dare to stop them when they saw these soldiers so fierce!
But there are also a hundred guards escorting the envoys of the Jin Kingdom, these people are also veterans, and they also drew their weapons to confront Li Yao's guards!
At this time, Yu Zhong saw such a situation, and hurriedly said: "Brother-in-law, quickly put down the knife, if there are deaths and injuries here, it will be difficult for me to explain to King Qi!" ”
Li Yao also wanted to scare them at first, but he didn't expect that he was not frightened, so Li Yao said: "I want to see your envoys of the Jin Kingdom now, my father has something to say to them, I want them to enter the palace immediately, where are they!" ”
As soon as Li Yao said this, the envoys of the Jin Kingdom panicked, and now the two envoys are not here at all, so they are silent and do not speak, Li Yao looks at this situation, and knows that the envoy of the Jin Kingdom is definitely not there!
So he said to the guards: "The sword is back in its sheath, let's withdraw!" ”
When the guards heard Li Yao's order, they put away their knives and followed Li Yao out of the courtyard, Li Yao said to Yu Zhong: "Brother-in-law, the result is obvious, the envoy of the Jin State has escaped!" ”
Yu Zhong was puzzled: "How did they escape?" Someone is guarded by the Ming Ming faction! ”
Li Yao said: "I heard the guards guarding the door say that a person who delivered food came in just now, and the envoy of the Jin Kingdom escaped in sackcloth, it is obvious that they followed the team that delivered the food and mixed out, brother-in-law, you go to the county government now to find me some officials, I am useful, now I will go to the restaurant first, and ask where those people have gone!" ”
Yu Zhong whispered: "Master Hou, this is the national capital, if you use the official to do things with great fanfare, it is a little inappropriate!" ”
Li Yao thought for a while and said, "Okay, don't go to the county office, you go to the person who delivered the food and ask where the envoy of the Jin Kingdom went, and I'll go find some people to do things now!" ”
Yu Zhong nodded and said, "Okay, leave this matter to me, I promise to ask you clearly!" ”
Li Yao turned around and left here, looking for an officer, Li Yao didn't have a problem at all, a year ago, he still had a nickname in the national capital called the five evils of Qi country, since he was the head of the five evils, then the original little brother must be a lot, Li Yao is ready to find such a head snake, there are many times, the role of the head snake is very great!
Li Yao quickly found some of the younger brothers who had been following him, and Li Yao said to them: "I now want you to help me find two people, and give you a thousand taels of silver as running expenses!" ”
Those land snakes were all people who had received Li Yao's favor, how dare they ask for Li Yao's money, so they said: "Master Hou, don't you just find someone." Give us money to do something! ”
Li Yao said: "I didn't tell you the money, I asked you to share it with your subordinates, and I can't let them run away in vain!" ”
For these local snakes, the most efficient way to do things is to tempt them with heavy money, and in the case of interests, they run faster than anyone else!
The head snake took the money and said, "Don't worry, Master Hou, I will pass on the news as soon as possible!" ”
At this time, Yu Zhong sent guards to report to Li Yao!
Li Yao looked at Yu Zhong's guards coming and asked, "Where did the people go, have they been tried?" ”
The guard said, "They went to South Street, and I heard that they were looking for children!" ”
Li Yao said secretly: "What are they looking for children for?" ”
But no matter what, I found someone talking first, so Li Yao said to the head snake: "People are on South Street, they should be looking for children, you quickly send someone to find them!" ”
The head snake nodded and said: "Master Hou, you can rest assured, although there is a large flow of people on South Street, there are many of my subordinates there, I promise to find someone for you within an hour!" ”
Li Yao waved his hand and said, "Go find someone!" ”
