Chapter 417: Escape
Xiao Qi flashed the waist card of Jinyiwei in his hand, looked at the monks in front of him expressionlessly, and said coldly: "Jinyiwei investigated the case, someone sued you Yanfu Temple, saying that a certain monk in the temple was related to the headless murder case in Lin'an City last year, and immediately asked you to preside over Yunze and all the monks to come out, and the official should verify them one by one." β
The head of the monk is named Fulin, is the deacon in the temple, about fifty years old, this Fulin looked at the official card in Xiao Qi's hand, and he didn't know what kind of official the person was, but the name of Jinyiwei Fulin had heard of it, and it was a mysterious mansion above the Lin'an Mansion.
Although the people standing in front of the temple were all dressed in civilian clothes and most of them were not carrying weapons, Fu Lin, who had a wealth of experience, could see at a glance that this group of people should not be some thieves who robbed houses, and this young official who claimed to be investigating the case was full of authority and did not seem to be a hypocrisy. Fu Lin didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly said: "My lord, please wait a while, the poor monk Fu Lin will go to inform the presiding master." β
"Okay, let's go."
After a while, Fu Lin returned to Xiao Qi in a panic and said, "My lord, the host is not in the house. β
"What?" Xiao Qidao, "Fulin, call all the monks to gather in front of the main hall, Wang Feng, you and everyone search around, and every room must not be let go." β
Wang Feng said, "Yes, my lord." β
"One, two...... Twenty-nine, thirty, thirty-one, thirty-two. "As more and more monks appeared in front of the main hall, Xiao Qi said.
Fu Lin said with a smiling face: "My lord, all the people in the house are here." β
"It's just Yun Ze and a monk, Fu Lin, where did these two go? Also, what about the master Lian Zhen who placed an order in the temple? β
Fu Lin said: "My lord, the name of a monk sent is Fuping, and he disappeared around noon, and the poor monk doesn't know where he went, as for the host and Master Lian Zhen, the poor monk also doesn't know, and the poor monk also saw them in the presiding room during dinner." β
Xiao Qidao: "What? Don't you have any door rules here? When a monk leaves the monastery, doesn't he need to greet you? β
"My lord doesn't know, this Fuping is the person who presides over him, and his whereabouts don't need to be registered all the time."
Yuan Jian on the side suddenly said, "Fulin, take us to Yunze House." β
"Yes, sir." Fu Lin answered, and hurriedly brought Yuan Jian, Xiao Qi, and Wang Feng to Yun Ze's room. After entering the house, Yuan Jian looked around, and then picked up a teacup on the table, only to see that there was a faint trace of heat in this cup of tea, next to the teacup were two empty bowls and some pastries, Yuan Jian sniffed and said: "Is it a high degree of liquor, or Chinese imperial liquid, Fulin."
"The poor monk is here."
"Fulin, do you know that there is a secret room in this Yanfu Temple?"
Fu Lin said: "No. The poor monk has been here for ten years, and has never heard of a secret room. β
Yuan Jian said: "Xiao Qi, go and ask the other monks, whether this Yanfu Temple has a secret room or something like that, Wang Feng, you go and call Yao Chaohui." β
Wang Feng was extremely fast, and it didn't take long for Yao Chaohui to follow Wang Feng to Yun Ze's room.
"Chaohui, do you want to see if there is a secret room in this room?"
"Sir, wait a minute, wait for your subordinates to take a closer look."
Yao Chaohui was good at this, and after a cup of tea, he found the trigger point of the mechanism next to the bed, and as Yao Zhaohui's right hand pressed, a thick secret door appeared on the wall behind the door.
Yuan Jian said: "Wang Feng, you tell Xiao Qi that Yao Chaohui and I will go in and have a look." β
"Yes, my lord, do you need to find more people to go in?"
"No, Yao Chaohui, follow me."
Yuan Jian picked up an oil lamp on the table and walked into the secret door. Under the faint light of the oil lamp, they saw that inside the secret door was a step that extended downward, and the two of them walked down more than a dozen steps, and they saw a rather narrow secret room, the furnishings in the secret room were almost the same as those in Yunze's house, with beds, tables and chairs, bookcases, and earthen walls all around except for a passage when they entered. Yao Zhaohui looked around and said, "There is another mechanism here. With that, he touched another trap, and sure enough, on the wall directly opposite the entrance passage, another secret door appeared.
Beyond this secret door is a long passageway, which is long, downhill, and low in height, and can only be passed by half-bowing down.
"Sir, judging from the mechanisms and passages here, it seems that tomb robbers did it."
"Grave robbers? Could it be that Yunze did this, or is it the previous presiding officer of Yanfu Temple? β
"It's possible that this passage is at least ten years old."
The two of them talked as they walked, without affecting the speed of progress in the slightest.
I don't know how long it took, Yao Chaohui suddenly whispered: "Sir, be careful, there seems to be a little light ahead." β
"Well, it's moonshine, it should be an export." Yuan Jianyi was bold, and after finishing speaking, he accelerated and walked out.
The exit was a small forest, Yao Zhaohui looked around, and said, "Sir, this place is far away from Yanfu Temple, and it is already the area of the Yellow Dragon Cave under the Gem Mountain, this piece of terrain is open and extends in all directions, and it is difficult to determine the direction of their escape. β
Yuan Jian thought for a while and said, "Well, Chaohui, let's go back first." β
When he returned to Yanfu Temple, Yuan Jian saw dozens of brocade guards dressed in official uniforms already walking back and forth in the temple.
"Sir, is there any news?" Xiao Qi, who was in Yun Ze's house, asked anxiously.
"The man must have escaped through a secret passage, but he didn't know where he had fled. Suo Wusoul, you take a few people who are good at tracking or light skills, and search northward from the area of the Yellow Dragon Cave in Gem Mountain to see if there are any clues. β
"Yes, sir."
"Xiao Qi, this place is handed over to you Jinyiwei to deal with, Junbao and I will go back to Shifeng first, Suo Wuji, Yao Chaohui, you and the people of the dragon's tooth are here to assist Jinyiwei."
Back at Lion Peak, it's almost time.
Yuan Jian reported to me how he went to Yanfu Temple to arrest Lian Zhen.
"Childe, what happened is roughly like this, when the subordinates walked out of the secret passage, they found that they were already in a bush several miles away."
"It seems that this Lian Zhen is really careful, and as a fine work, he is completely qualified. Xiao Qi, spread my will, so that all the passes are secretly watched, once there are traces of Lian Zhen and Yun Ze, they will attack them in groups, and they must be captured. β
"Yes, Childe."
Chain Zhen's martial arts are strong, and ordinary soldiers are not their enemies at all, and they can only rely on the advantage of numbers to have a chance to capture them.
It was very different from my prediction, after Yang Lian Zhenjia left Lin'an, he did not go north to Mongolia, but went northwest.
After walking out of a few miles, Yun Ze was a little out of breath and said, "My lord, where are we going now?" β
"Yun Ze, go to Fang Chenqian's Holy Cave first."
Yun Ze exclaimed: "Isn't that still in the territory of the Song Dynasty?" β
"Exactly."
"My lord, although Fuping has been eliminated, the government is bound to discover the secret passage in Yanfu Temple, and from the perspective of his subordinates, it is better to go north as soon as possible and go to Mongolia."
Yang Lian Zhenjia said with a smile: "Yun Ze, since the secret passage will be discovered, those people in the government think that we will definitely go north, so it is more dangerous to return to Mongolia, go to the Holy Father's Cave to hide first, and then make plans when the wind is quiet." β
Yun Ze praised: "What the adults said is reasonable. β
Yang Lian Zhenjia looked at the dark sky and said, "Take advantage of the night, let's go." β
Since April, the weather has been hot day by day, and compared with previous years, this year's hot days seem to be much earlier. However, fortunately, the rainy season in Jiangnan has also arrived on time, and it will rain from time to time, which will also bring coolness to the sultry weather.
On April 23, Shou and the Empress Dowager twice registered, treasure, Xie Daoqing's brother Xie Yishi and other 15 people, clan nephew Xie Zaida, 47 people, nephew Xie Yong and other 14 people all arrived in Lin'an, according to the proposal of Ma Tingluan of the Ministry of Rites, each tin silver 10 taels, silk 10 horses, Xie Daoqing's Xie Qubo as the king of Wei, grandfather Xie Shenfu, great-grandfather Xie Jingzhidu as the king, in order to show the emperor's favor. On the same day, the queen was enthroned and said: Taizhong Doctor Quanqingfu Confucianism was born, earnestly changed the class, Jing retired Keshang, and specially awarded the Qingyuan Army to undertake the propaganda envoy and raise the blessing of the gods, and was still invited by the court. Quan Jiu's younger brother, Quan Qingfu, was transferred to fifteen people, and Quan Jue's seventeen people were added to Cheng Xinlang. ηΈι , the beauty Yang entered the concubine.
On 25 April, at the suggestion of President Shi Yanzhi of Lin'an Military University, I ordered Jiang Wanli's younger brother Jiang Wanzai to return to Lin'an to serve as an academician of the Military Academy and vice president of the Military University.
Jiang Wanzai, Jiang Wanli's younger brother, and his brother Wanli and Brother Wanqing were called ** "Sangu" or "Sankunyu" by the people of the time. Because of his great physique and outstanding arm strength since childhood, his grandfather Jiang Lan and father Jiang Ye had high hopes for him. At the age of sixteen, he joined the army, and before the age of seventeen, he became the direct superior of Meng Hui (then 29 years old). Later, he had a discord with Shi Miyuan, Ding Daquan, Jia Rudao and others, so he lived in seclusion at home.
Because the war between the Song and Mongolia was about to break out, and I deeply felt the shortage of generals, so while recruiting troops, in addition to training and recruiting young generals, I also began to pay attention to the veterans of the Meng Gong era. Under Shi Yanzhi's strong recommendation and Jiang Wanli's persuasion, Jiang Wanzai agreed to return to the army in the imperial court.
At the end of April, the Sichuan Military Region reported on the war again, and General Zhang Jue protected the spring ploughing in Hezhou, and the war money Longxi was used to make meritorious deeds and the names of meritorious soldiers on the edict.
May 1st, the Great Pilgrimage.
Before discussing military and government affairs, I once again engaged in superstitious activities, and according to the historical process I know, there will be a solar eclipse in May.
After everyone finished saluting, I first said: "Ladies and gentlemen, last night I received a revelation from the Emperor in my dream, so that I began to prepare for the battle of Song and Mongolia. After that, I asked the first emperor what was the outcome of the battle between Song and Mongolia? The first emperor said that the heavens will send down this month to show that if the Great Song Dynasty wins, it will show the vision of the sky again, that is, there will be an eclipse of the sun, if not, there will be no image of an eclipse of the sun. Qin Tianjian was listed. β
