Since Lord Wen dared to flee to Changzhou with a bill, he must have made full preparations before coming. Cang Xuelan guessed that as early as when Master Wen got the account book, he stored the account book in Chang'an Ticket Village, and entrusted Chang'an Ticket Village to transfer this thing to the Changzhou branch for storage.

In this way, if he can escape to Changzhou City, he can go to the ticket village and take out the evidence directly.

If he was killed on the road, Zeng Wuhou's people would not have thought of finding this thing in Xuzhou.

Lu Boyan's mistake was that he underestimated Lord Wen's ability, so during this time, he was played by Lord Wen with a bill, set fire to Changzhou for a while, and ran back to Xuzhou for a while, first trying his best to steal the bill, and then desperately returning the bill.

Now that the bill and Wen Ying are in the hands of Cang Xuelan, it is equivalent to giving the initiative to Cang Xuelan.

Now, Cang Xuelan doesn't go to get the account book, and they can't act rashly.

Lu Boyan's patience has been broken, and he has been monitoring Cang Xuelan in the dark by relying on his light skills.

However, this person seems to really want to concentrate on the New Year, except for going to Wen Ying's other courtyard to visit the door, the rest of the time he stays in the tavern, and sometimes he has sex, so he simply puts a firecracker at the door and supports mahjong on the table.

"He's really not in a hurry, isn't he afraid of long nights and dreams?" Lu Boyan said coldly.

Luo Qiheng said calmly: "After all, you still underestimate Cang Xuelan, a brave and unscrupulous person, but he can't sit firmly in the position of the commander of the million Cangxing army." ”

"If you knew this was the case, you shouldn't have let him know about the existence of the bill."

"If he doesn't know the existence of the bill, Miss Wen Ying doesn't know, Wen Ying doesn't know, how do we know what the token is set by Lord Wen and Chang'an Ticket Bank?"

"Can't you just go directly to the warehouse of Chang'an Ticket Village to find it?"

Luo Qiheng glanced at him lightly, "Chang'an ticket village has a lot of business, and there are countless things in the warehouse, if you turn it one by one, I'm afraid that if you turn it over for a few months, you won't be able to finish the warehouse of the Xuzhou branch, let alone the more than 60 ticket warehouses in Dazhou." ”

Lu Boyan was irritable in his heart, and with a slight force in his hand, the teacup broke into several pieces.

Luo Qiheng handed over a handkerchief, and his voice softened a little, "I know you're anxious, but this matter can't be rushed." Cang Xuelan's delay also happened to give us the opportunity to deploy and prepare, and we wanted to snatch the account book from Cang Xuelan's hand, which was no easier than from Master Wen. ”

"How did you feel when you fought him that day?"

"The Nine Emperors are also there, he has concerns, and he doesn't use all his strength, but even so, it's hard to get entangled. If he had done it all, I would have died at his hands. ”

Lu Boyan's expression moved slightly, "His martial arts are so high?" ”

"Looking at today's martial arts, I'm afraid that they are also among the top ten masters."

"The one under him called Wei Rong is also a ruthless character, Wang Han is a little worse, but it is not something that can be sent casually, the group of soldiers they brought are extremely brave and well-trained, although we can use poison to sneak attack, but it is still not easy to break. In order not to reveal our identities, we can't make the secret weapons and poisons unique to the Tang Sect, and we will shrink back from fighting, so there is no possibility of victory. ”

"It doesn't matter, we don't need to win anyway."

Lu Boyan said worriedly: "You mean...... But I'm afraid he won't last long. ”

"Since Cang Xuelan is unwilling to do it, then force it again."

In a blink of an eye, the fourth day of the Lunar New Year and the Spring Festival holiday ended, the number of vendors on the street gradually increased, and the shops all opened their doors to do business. The yamen of Changzhou Prefecture was silent, and the old official who came to guard yawned, opened the door, and went straight to the lobby.

But after a few days, a layer of dust fell on this table. The old servant sighed as he walked towards the warehouse where the miscellaneous items were piled up, trying to pick out a clean rag and wipe the table.

He pushed open the door of the warehouse, lit an oil lamp, rummaged through it, and saw a corner of gray cloth, which seemed to be able to be used as a rag.

The old servant thought so, so he reached out and pulled it, this cloth didn't know what was pressed underneath, and the servant dragged it for a long time, but he couldn't pull it out.

The old servant frowned, put down the oil lamp, put his hands together, and exerted his feet hard.

With a loud bang, a white and stiff hand was dragged out along with the cloth.

The servant was frightened, took two steps back, and then settled down, holding the oil lamp probe to check.

Behind these huge wooden boxes, there were three or five corpses stacked on top of each other, and they should have been dead for a while. Now Changzhou City is cold, and these corpses are frozen straight up.

Only then did the official realize that the corner of cloth he had just seen was not a rag, but the sleeve of the dead man's coat.

At this time, the yamen of Changzhou Prefecture, which had been silent for a long time, was noisy again.

After Cang Xuelan received the news, she immediately hurried over, and with him, in addition to Wang Han, who often accompanied him, there was also a little guard who had not seen much before.

The old official is the old seniority of the state government yamen, and he stepped forward and briefly talked about the affairs of the utility room. After hearing this, Cang Xuelan did not show a look of surprise, and asked, "Have you ever been to see Lord Qi?" ”

"The villain really wanted to go and report to my family, but he was stopped by the general's people in front of the backyard, so the villain had to ask the soldier brother to bring a message to my family, and then come back here first to wait for the general."

Cang Xuelan nodded, neither asked about the situation of the corpse, nor said how to deal with it, and said directly: "I'll go see your family." So he took his men and went around to the inner court.

The old servant was stunned, so he had to order his subordinates not to act rashly, and he took two people and followed behind Cang Xuelan.

On the way to the inner courtyard, no one could be seen, and the whole courtyard was surprisingly quiet.

"I heard that Lord Qi moved out of his family?"

The old servant took two steps forward and said, "My lord said that he is a suspect now, and if the ladies and ladies still run to him like they are nothing, it will not be good if they are charged with leaking secrets and colluding confessions." ”

When the old servant said this, he was resentful, and anyone could hear what Cang Xuelan meant. Unexpectedly, Cang Xuelan not only did not get angry, but nodded and smiled: "Your family is appropriate, only being a state guard in this small Changzhou City, it is really condescending." ”

Several people came to Lord Qi's study, but there was still no half of them.

Cang Xuelan flew up and kicked the door open, and the room was empty.

Cang Xuelan walked to the table and touched the water in the teacup, which was already cold.

Cang Xuelan will send people to the state capital every day to see if Lord Qi is okay, last night, the guards came to report the time, and everything was normal, early this morning, this huge state capital yamen, there was not half a living person.

He was not shocked on his face, and instructed the officials: "Lead people to search the entire state capital, no matter what is found, don't act rashly first, just report to me directly." ”

"Then my lord ......"

Cang Xuelan clasped her hands to her chest, "Life and death are fateful." ”

With that, he turned and walked out of the room.

The old officer chased after him for two steps, and then asked, "General, where are you going now?" ”

"Go see Governor Chen."

The place where Governor Chen lives is not far from the yamen of the state capital. Because he was known for being thrifty and had no wife or children, the courtyard where he lived was not large, and it could even be called simple.

This place is the same as Lord Qi's inner courtyard, and half of the people don't see it.

Cang Xuelan turned over and dismounted, and the three of them entered the Chen Mansion together, walked through the lobby, and the road was unimpeded, until they were almost in the inner courtyard, and they saw a few corpses.

Wang Han immediately drew his sword and protected behind Cang Xuelan, and after the little guard with a raw face looked at several dead bodies on the ground, he clinged to Cang Xuelan's side.

When she was about to lie inside, Cang Xuelan waited with bated breath and heard a few breaths, and there were at least 6 or 7 living people in it. He glanced at Wang Han, and Wang Han immediately understood, and pulled the little guard to hide behind the rockery.

Cang Xuelan performed light skills and landed on the roof lightly, he uncovered the tiles and looked down, only to see Governor Chen tied face down to the ground, and several men in black turned the house upside down.

A man in black, who was slightly shorter than two inches, said, "Chief, there's nothing here." ”

The man who was called the leader snorted coldly and said, "Then take it away, since Cang Xuelan wants to spend here, we will accompany him to spend it!" ”

A few people dragged Governor Chen and were about to walk out of the door.

At this time, the leader suddenly turned around, and a boomerang flew towards Cang Xuelan, who rolled over on her side and landed in the courtyard, blocking a group of people who wanted to take the opportunity to rob Governor Chen.

"People say that the moon is dark and the wind is high, and when people are killed and set on fire, I see that it is not a good time to do bad things now, why did you suddenly do it at this time?"

The leader did not reply, but drew his sword and met Cang Xuelan.

"I see that your sword skills are less than half of your ability to throw hidden weapons, if you want to survive, it is better to use real kung fu."

The leader sneered: "Don't talk nonsense! ”

Cang Xuelan let out a long sigh, he shook his head, and held his sword horizontally in front of him.

After there was no one standing in the audience except Cang Xuelan, Wang Han pulled the little guard and walked out, and he sighed: "This group of people is really tough, they are all fighting like this, and they are not willing to use their housekeeping skills." ”

"Why bother." The little guard shook his head and sighed.

Cang Xuelan loosened the rope on Governor Chen's body, took out the strip of cloth stuffed in the governor's mouth, and asked, "My lord, are you okay?" ”

"I'm fine, but this ......"

"I guess the dog jumped off the wall in a hurry."

Governor Chen coughed twice and said, "General, I know I shouldn't ask more, but...... Mr. Wen, how did you investigate? Did you get that thing? ”

"The real bill has been obtained."

"Then hurry up and go to Chang'an Ticket Village to take out the things!"

Cang Xuelan sighed: "Where is it so simple? There are a lot of things to do in Chang'an Ticket Village, and it is not enough to have Miss Wen and the bills, but also to take the tokens. ”

"What is a token?"

"I don't know yet, Miss Wen has been thinking about this all these days, but so far, she has no clue, and I can only wait for her to remember. But I can afford to wait, that group of people can't afford to wait, Lord Qi has already been poisoned, and now there is no one alive or dead. ”

Governor Chen frowned and said, "The purpose of their attack on us is to force you to take out the account book as soon as possible. ”

"That's exactly what it is." Cang Xuelan helped Governor Chen up, and suddenly frowned, "Since Lord Qi and you have been ambushed one after another, His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes may be in danger now. ”

In the tavern, the Nine Emperor Princes had just opened their eyes, he put on a cloak and walked to the table, hammering his sore shoulders, the days of no one to serve him were really hard. The Nine Emperors shook their heads helplessly, and was about to drink saliva to moisten their throats.

Suddenly, there was a messy footstep outside the door, and he frowned, and his eyes were full of gold.
