"Master Shao, where are we going?"

Although Shao Tian only hung up an errand as the foreman of the inner courtyard in the Prime Minister's Mansion, not only those old ministers of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but even newcomers to the Prime Minister's Mansion like Zhou Ling did not dare to underestimate Shao Tian at all.

Because where can Zhou Ling and the others generally only see Shao Tian?

Shao Tian could only be seen by Ran Ming's side.

Even if Shao Tian didn't have an errand to leave the capital, Zhou Ling and the others would definitely see Shao Tian who was guarding Ran Ming when they had the opportunity to meet Ran Ming.

Therefore, in order to avoid Ran Ming's misunderstanding, Zhou Ling may not dare or have the opportunity to curry favor with or contact Shao Tian in the Prime Minister's Mansion, but whether it is to fight for the table or what, when he found that everyone was getting farther and farther away from the official road after leaving the capital, Zhou Ling was still a little surprised to find Shao Tian.

Because just as ancient societies could only sail along the seashore and use the coast as a reference, for ancient people like Zhou Ling, although they didn't care about slightly deviating from the road to avoid pursuers and surveillance, no one dared to burrow into the wilderness or jungle without an accurate map as a guide.

After all, not to mention that there are countless dangers hidden in the jungle, there will even be tigers and wolves rampant in the wilderness, etc., not to mention that now that it is dark and night, Shao Tian is only allowed to carry a torch by himself.

But even if Zhou Ling's question was very sincere, and even used the title of 'adult' to Shao Tian, Shao Tian just looked expressionless and didn't reply: "Don't worry, it's coming soon!" ”

Coming soon? What is coming soon?

Hearing Shao Tian's words, not only Zhou Ling, but even the other officials of the Prime Minister's Mansion who were traveling with him also showed a strange look on their faces.

After all, although Shao Tian and the others would definitely not enter Yunxing County in front, under the condition that they were generally advancing with Yunxing County as the goal, with the speed of Zhou Ling and the others, it was impossible to say that they were almost there in just half an hour after leaving the capital!

But before Zhou Ling could speak out in confusion again. Suddenly, a soft shout came from the ranks: "Someone! ”

Looking at everyone together, he saw that there was indeed a little more light in the wilderness ahead, and then before everyone could make a new reaction, Shao Tian, who was alone with the torch, also began to raise the torch in his hand to a high place and shake it.

Then when the light on the opposite side also began to move regularly, Zhou Ling immediately understood: "Lord Shao, is that the person arranged by the Prime Minister to answer the manpower?" ”

"Yes! But no! ”

Although it is not as precious as gold. But Shao Tian also looked reluctant to say more. Fortunately, there is finally a target in front of him, including Zhou Ling, who will not talk more at this time, and everyone is eager to rush to the light in front of them.

Because in the eyes of everyone, even if the light is smaller than the torch in Shao Tian's hand, at least the bright storage zài not only shows that everyone is not alone in the dark, but also shows that the problem of getting lost, which has always worried everyone before, does not actually exist.

Then rushed all the way to the light, even though it was still in the dark, Zhou Ling and the others still showed a touch of surprise on their faces.

Because even though only one torch was lit in the huge depression, there were hundreds of gray-clothed men carrying various weapons sitting in the depression. Although he didn't know why none of these gray-clothed men stood up or made a noise when everyone arrived, Shao Tian didn't even admit it. Zhou Ling and the others could also conclude that the other party was indeed here to pick everyone up.

However, without waiting for everyone to speak, Shao Tian said first: "Okay, Lord Zhou, you go to the depression first and sit and wait, we must now prepare to meet the chasing soldiers sent by the emperor first." ”

“…… Pursuers? Did the emperor send a pursuer? ”

Hearing the chasing soldiers or something, Zhou Ling and the others showed a look of surprise on their faces.

Because even if Zhou Ling and the others knew that it would definitely not be easy for the Prime Minister's Mansion to leave Beijing safely, they were still inevitably a little afraid of chasing soldiers or something.

After all, the Prime Minister's Mansion suffered heavy losses last time because of the interception of the Emperor's Mansion, although it seems that it was not the Emperor's Mansion that shot this time, but who knows who the pursuers sent by the Emperor of Beiyue Shangtu Yang are? There are even Tianyingmen disciples inside.

And it was as if he knew what everyone was thinking. Shao Tian's tone also added a resolute expression: "Don't worry, the chasing soldiers sent by the emperor this time are mainly masters from the palace. It does not include the Tianyingmen disciples of Wanhua Palace. But even if the Tianying Sect disciples really came here, we didn't necessarily need to really back down! ”

“…… Are these people all soldiers? ”

Although I don't know where Shao Tian's confidence comes from, but in the situation that it is difficult to find an opponent to fight against Tianyingmen in Beiyue and even in the rivers and lakes, the only force that Zhou Ling can think of to restrain Tianyingmen is the army.

Because even if Zhou Ling had not seen the situation of the Tianyingmen disciples fighting with the army, if the army was not the opponent of the Tianyingmen disciples, not to mention the independence of the Prime Minister's Mansion would only be a joke. The state or something will become meaningless.

However, Shao Tian did not answer Zhou Ling's speculation.

After all, although civil officials are indeed good at managing various political affairs, in the face of the current situation in the Prime Minister's Mansion, they still have to rely more on the strength of the army and masters like Shao Tian.

Then without Shao Tian's help, it would be impossible for Zhou Ling and the others to leave on their own. So it's a bit of a stretch. Eventually, everyone shrank into an open space in the middle of the depression. In this way, even if the enemy attacked from outside the depression, it would be impossible to kill Zhou Ling and the others quickly.

Of course, this is not that Zhou Ling and the others are cowardly, but that they must remain useful and continue to work for Ran Ming and the Ran family in the future, etc.

Otherwise, even if Shao Tian and other martial artists can help the Prime Minister's Mansion to become self-reliant, there is no civil official like Zhou Ling who can be used to govern the country, and not everyone is as lucky as Tu Yangjun.

It's just that no matter what Zhou Ling and the others thought, after continuing to leave a torch on the high place at the edge of the depression, Shao Tian stood with Ran Yan, who was also dressed in gray, and whispered: "Ran Yan, don't rush to act later, but wait for someone to go up and try your hand first." …… If we can block the enemy, then you should not attack, lest you lightly expose the power of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Because once you make a move, you must not leave another one alive! ”

"Got it!"

Although he was still a little uncomfortable with Shao Tian's identity, Ran Yan would not argue with Shao Tian at this time.

After all, Ran Yan and the others were able to sneak quietly near the capital because of Ran Xiong's response in Gancheng, and the number of people was extremely limited. Therefore, in order to be able to safely take the Prime Minister's Mansion or Ran Ming out of the capital, Ran Yan and the others must not act rashly.

Because the Prime Minister's Mansion or the Ran family dared to stand on their own feet was all because of Ran Ming. Therefore, only by keeping Ran Ming can the future of the Ran family be saved, which is something that no one dares to take lightly. (To be continued......)
