What kind of relationship exists between Xiaoluantai and Ming Chongyan?

Yang Shouwen didn't know, and he wasn't interested in exploring.

Mingxiu seemed to understand Yang Shouwen's thoughts, looked at him and said, "Qingzhi, don't you think that the development potion used by Yan Zhi is made according to the recipe of my Ming family's development potion?" ”

"Maybe!"

However, Yang Shouwen immediately waved his hand and said, "I'm just guessing, you don't have to take it to heart."

Anyway, this letter will be sent to Luoyang, I believe that Miss Shangguan will solve the trouble at that time, and you and I don't have to worry too much. ”

Mingxiu's mouth opened, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed back.

He wanted to confirm Yang Shouwen's guess, if Xiao Luantai's development potion formula was the same as his Ming family's, it would mean that Xiao Luantai and the Ming family were really inextricably linked. It's just that Yang Shouwen's meaning is also very clear, and he doesn't seem to want to make extraneous branches. What if not? Once the Ming family's development potion fails, the letter will be invalidated.

For a while, Mingxiu was so entangled......

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Actually, if you think about it carefully, Xiao Luantai may really have something to do with Ming Chongyan.

Judging from Ming Chongyan's behavior of driving the corpse Mirodo from Luoyang to Anxi, it seems that he intended to let the corpse Mirodo collect intelligence.

Moreover, the relationship between Ming Chongyan and Wu Zetian is also very close.

Who can guarantee that Ming Chongyan formed Fengwei back then, not to protect Wu Zetian?

You must know that although Wu Zetian had already taken control of the power at that time and cleared all obstacles in the court, in fact, there were still many people secretly plotting and wanting Wu Zetian's life. If this is the case, it seems reasonable for Ming Chongyan to design Xiaoluantai.

It's a pity that Ming Chongyan died suddenly, so that many things could not be explained clearly.

After Wu Zetian ascended the throne, he merged the internal guards and secretly set up Xiaoluantai, which may have the handwriting of Ming Chongyan.

Of course, this is just Yang Shouwen's speculation.

As for whether it is true or not, I am afraid that apart from Wu Zetian, not too many people will know the inside story of this......

Yang Shouwen and the others didn't have much luggage, and Gao Lishi and the others quickly prepared it.

Poseri also packed his bags and talked to his brother for a long time before he said goodbye to Corpse Mirodo again.

It was past noon, and although the sun was very hot, it was not as hot as it was in the heat of the summer.

Yang Shouwen and the others left the temple and walked out of Tianma City.

Judging from Pegasus' reaction, his night visit to the castle does not seem to be noticed. Everything seemed to be uneventful, with nothing out of the ordinary.

Yang Cunzhong changed a camel and lent his horse to Poseri.

The group stared at the scorching sun and left Pegasus Castle and headed straight east.

This time, they will cross the Julu River, turn north to the Shaye River Valley, and then enter Tingzhou through the Kunling Mountain Ancient Road.

Yang Shouwen also has to go to Juliu City to meet the taste of horses.

After all, he wanted to take Feng Changqing out of the Western Regions, and he didn't know when he would be able to come back. If Ma Wei was willing to follow him into Beijing, Yang Shouwen would not feel burdensome. But if Ma Wei is unwilling to go, Yang Shouwen is ready to visit Guo Qianjun.

It is better to be able to let Ma Wei leave Juliu City and be on duty in the Beiting Metropolitan Protectorate than to stay in Juliu City and be a school captain.

This is good for Feng Changqing, at least he doesn't have to worry about his grandfather anymore.

"The front is the Kulu River, let's camp in Dalongchi tonight, and after dawn, go around the Geluo Mountains, climb through the Daxue Mountain, and after crossing the Bashi Mountains, even if we enter the Broken Leaf River Valley. Let's hurry up, and hopefully get to Shattered Leaf City as soon as possible. ”

It was getting late, and the group arrived on the bank of the Kulu River.

It's just that they soon found that the crossing of the Kulu River was deserted and there was no one in sight.

"We're not on the wrong track, are we...... I remember when I came, there were ferries parked at the ferry. ”

Yang Shouwen frowned slightly, and couldn't help but speak.

And Mingxiu turned over and dismounted, and said softly: "Qingzhi, it doesn't feel right." ”

"Oh?"

"Brother, sixteen, go and see the house at the ferry."

When Yang Cunzhong heard this, he immediately agreed, patted the camel, let the camel kneel, and he jumped off the camel's back.

Taking the Mo knife from the camel, Yang Cunzhong and Yang Sixteen went straight to the ferry.

Mingxiu's attitude made Yang Shouwen more vigilant.

He took a large knife from his horse and placed it across his horse.

After a while, I saw Yang Cunzhong and the two running out of the wooden house at the ferry, waving his hands and shouting, "Ah Lang, come quickly." ”

"Let's go, go over and have a look."

Seeing the appearance of Yang Cunzhong and the two, Yang Shouwen felt that something was not right.

He hurriedly urged the horse forward, let Gao Lishi, Po Saili and Feng Changqing stay where they were, and came to the wooden house with Mingxiu.

"Alang, there's a corpse inside."

"Huh?"

Yang Shouwen turned over and dismounted, and walked quickly to the door of the wooden house.

Before he entered the house, a thick smell of blood came to his face.

At this time, Yang Sixteen also lit a torch to illuminate Yang Shouwen.

Yang Shouwen and Mingxiu walked into the house, and when they looked at the light of the torches, they saw five corpses on the ground of the wooden house.

Mingxiu walked over to a corpse and crouched down to turn it over.

"This is the boatman."

Mingxiu recognized the identity of the corpse at a glance, stood up and walked to a female corpse, squatted down to look at it a few times, and also recognized her identity.

This is a family, a family of boatmen who make a living on ferries.

Yang Shouwen also recognized a few familiar faces, after all, they had crossed the river here before, and it was the family who ferried them across the river.

Although his speech was not very smooth, he remembered the boatman's wife, and her hearty smile.

After crossing the river, the boatman's wife also gave a bag of roasted naan, saying that they should eat it on the way. In general, the family is deeply Buddhist and very devout Buddhists. But in just half a month, the family has already ......

Yang Shouwen took a deep breath, calmed down, and examined the wounds on the corpse.

"It's all knife wounds, it's very crisp, it doesn't look like the handiwork of a bandit."

"Officers and soldiers?"

"It's not like ...... As far as I know, there doesn't seem to be any military presence in this area.

The nearest official army from here is the Green Ridge Guard of Drinking Pantuo, which is under the jurisdiction of the Shule Army. But according to this, 200 miles, what did the green ridge guard do when he came here? Moreover, even if they come, there is no need to kill this family. ”

As Yang Shouwen spoke, he stood up and shouted loudly, "Brother Nu, go get another torch." ”

"Sixteen, you accompany Shiro here, I'll go outside and have a look."

Yang Shouwen turned around and walked out of the wooden house, and after a while, he saw Yang Cunzhong walking over with a torch. At this time, Po Sai Lix and Feng Changqing also arrived at the door of the wooden house, and saw Yang Shouwen holding torches around the wooden house, the three of them were puzzled, but they did not ask questions, but dismounted and walked towards the wooden house......

Yang Shouwen turned around for a while, and then returned to the wooden house.

"Shiro, there are horseshoe marks around, there are about seventeen or eighteen horses, it looks like a group of scouts."

"Scouts?"

Mingxiu was stunned and blurted out: "Where did the scout come from?" ”

"It's not clear."

Yang Shouwen shook his head, and after a moment of silence, he said, "I didn't see the ferry boat on the shore just now, it is likely that those scouts snatched it and used it to cross the river."

Poseri, near Pegasus City, what bandits and horse thieves are infested? ”

Poseli was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head and said: "I haven't heard of any bandits and horse thieves in this area, except for the bravery of Tianma City, I remember that there are 600 brave men in Kumi City, and there are 600 brave men under the rule of the Governor of Bazhou. However, according to this, Kumi City is about 180 miles, and it is rare to send soldiers and horses to this side in normal times, let alone send scouts to this ferry to kill people......"

It is not a bandit or a horse thief, nor is it a brave city.

Yang Shouwen frowned, and after a while, he said softly: "Shiro, looking at this posture, it seems that something is wrong.

Even if it was a horse thief or bandit, there was no need to kill the five members of the boatman's family, unless they ......"

Mingxiu's eyes flashed, and she said softly, "They want to fight Tianma City?" ”

"Scouts kill people, probably to avoid leaking rumors.

However, since they killed someone, they must have made the next move, otherwise they wouldn't have killed people here. ”

"Who?"

"This ......"

Just when Yang Shouwen was about to shake his head to show that he didn't know, he suddenly heard Feng Changqing shouting: "Master, come on, see what this is?" ”

When Yang Shouwen and Mingxiu heard this, they hurriedly ran into the wooden house.

Feng Changqing pointed to a corpse and shouted, "Look at what he is holding in his hand?" ”

Yang Shouwen hurriedly stepped forward, broke the palm of the corpse's clenched fist, and took out a bronze medal from it.

On the bronze plaque, there is a wolf's head pattern. At the back of the bronze plaque, the words 'Asiji' are written in Turkic script.

Seeing the three words of Asiji, Yang Shouwen not only chuckled in his heart.

He suddenly raised his head, looked at Mingxiu, and said softly, "Asiji? Is it Bo Lu? (To be continued.) )
