An Yihou went to Changzhou with imperial reinforcements.

The White Dragon King also assembled a fleet, and many of the combative pirates and pirates on the sea were encircled by the White Dragon King, and some were ready to watch the battle, and they could take advantage of it at any time.

Before the curtain of the war began, some pirates thought that the imperial court would concentrate its troops and horses in Changzhou, and other places could not help but relax, so they pretended to be maritime merchants and swaggered to the sea, and were immediately discovered by the small boats patrolling Quanzhou, and it only took half an hour for the pirates to be taken down.

Song Chengxuan looked at the bound pirates, these people kill people without blinking an eye on weekdays, standing on the ship and showing their fierceness, as if they are not afraid of life and death.

"Kill it!"

Hearing this, the pirates' faces immediately turned pale, but they didn't expect to be put to death like this without even letting them speak: "I...... There is news of the White Dragon King, spare us from death, and I will tell you. ”

Song Chengxuan always kept his face calm, not moved by his words, and even his eyes never fell on the pirate, no longer said anything, and raised his feet to look forward at the defense.

The pirate's legs were completely softened, and he regretted that he shouldn't have come to Quanzhou, but it was too late, and several heads quickly landed.

When Song Chengxuan returned to the big tent, it was already dark, and the lamps and candles were lit in the tent, he sat down to look at the sand table in front of him, and only the footsteps of the patrol soldiers could be heard outside the tent.

"Childe," Zhao Tong walked into the military tent and announced, "a maritime merchant has come to inquire about the pirates we have caught. ”

Song Chengxuan raised his eyes: "They know those pirates?" ”

Zhao Tongdao: "I only said that some ships were seized by pirates a few days ago, for fear that the pirates used their ships, and if we inquire about it, they will not be able to explain, so they will simply come to report it, and send the number of ships that have been seized in recent days for us to inquire." ”

Zhao Tong handed over a booklet.

"What about people?" Song Chengxuan asked.

Zhao Tong said: "Just wait outside the camp." ”

Song Chengxuan said lightly: "Take the pirate's head out and let them identify it." ”

Zhao Tong answered, turned around and walked out of the tent.

The big tent quieted down again, and Song Chengxuan looked at the letter on the table, which Zhang Zhenren had brought back, and the letter said that she had caught Xie Yun in Beijing, and then traced it to the Taiping Mansion.

There is no Xie family's property in Taiping Mansion, and it seems that there is nothing unusual about it, but at this time, because there are Changzhou people in Taiping Mansion who have fled to avoid disaster, some people of unknown origin have been mixed in among the relocated maritime merchants.

She was the only one who would have thought of looking it up.

Even if most people go to Taiping Mansion, I'm afraid they won't think about it.

Song Chengxuan pondered, walked out of the big tent, and walked all the way out of the camp.

Outside the camp, I vaguely saw Zhao Tong's figure.

Zhao Tong was talking to those businessmen, and saw the figure of Song Chengxuan not far away, but he didn't expect Gongzi to come in person, probably because he couldn't rest assured that these businessmen would have any inside information, Zhao Tong came back to his senses and looked at those businessmen: "You can see the ships that these pirates are riding?" ”

Shang Jia immediately said, "No." ”

Zhao Tong frowned: "Since you haven't, why do you have such suspicions?" "Only those who have ghosts in their hearts will be uneasy when they hear some news.

Feeling that the attitude of the military master on the other side was even colder, Shang Jia didn't dare to slack off and immediately said: "The military master doesn't know, something happened to the Taiping Mansion, and now everyone is in danger, I'm afraid that we will be regarded as the same party of the White Dragon King. ”

Zhao Tong did not speak.

Shang Jia continued: "The maritime merchants of Changzhou were arrested in Taiping Mansion because their families were mixed with unidentified people, and now the imperial court suspects that the maritime merchants are colluding with the Japanese people.

It's really dangerous to think about it, the court will find out now, there are not many people involved, if it comes out in the future, all the people who go to the Taiping Mansion will be suspicious, and then we will all have to be speechless, in the end, we are all deceived by that Xie Yun. ”

Shang Jia was scared and flustered in his heart, regardless of the thirty-seven twenty-one, he poured out the things he knew and the worries in his heart: "If such a thing happens, we don't dare to slack off anymore, and we will thoroughly investigate all the things in the family, and we can't let go of the things related to maritime business."

Even if the pirate doesn't come by ship today, we're going to hand over the book to the general, and it's a good news. ”

Zhao Tong understood and ordered: "Have you seen the heads of those pirates?" Really don't know? ”

"I don't know," Shang Jia turned pale with fright, and kept waving his hand, "We are doing business on the sea, and most of us are entrusted ship stewards, how can I have been there a few times, I have really seen such pirates, but I am afraid that my life will be gone, and I will never stand here." ”

Zhao Tong saw that Shang Jia's expression didn't seem to be lying, he turned his head to look at Gongzi, only to see that Gongzi turned around and was about to leave, and Zhao Tong was about to send Shang Jia away.

I only heard the merchant Jia add another sentence: "Don't worry, general, we know that those Japanese people are deliberately trying to drag us into the water, so that we are at a loss for words, and we have to be driven by others, so we maritime merchants are extremely careful, and as long as we find the slightest sign, we will immediately report to you or the government." ”

After saying this, Shang Jia was about to retreat, only to hear a cold voice say, "Who asked you to say these words?" ”

Shang Jia panicked in his heart, raised his head and saw a tall figure standing there, they immediately lowered their heads and did not dare to look directly at him, they knew that there was a Song Lord in the Quanzhou army, experienced in a hundred battles, using soldiers like a god, young and even heroic, but the most important person in the general army, I heard that Lord Song was here before I came, and now seeing this person so powerful, it must be that Lord Song.

Shang Jia was a little more respectful: "No...... No one said that...... It's just that after this incident, we all ...... I don't dare to slack off, and I don't want to make another mistake in this joint. ”

Song Chengxuan's voice was even lower: "Submit the document and thoroughly investigate the whole family, do you do it yourself, or do all maritime merchants do it?" ”

Shang Jia said: "Most of the maritime merchants in Changzhou are like this. ”

Song Chengxuan narrowed his eyes.

Shang Jia suddenly understood what Lord Song was going to ask: "After the accident in the Taiping Mansion, we were in a mess, everyone was in danger, I don't know what to do, it was the Seventh Lady who came forward to recruit everyone together, and said these words, as long as we don't mess up, we won't give people a chance." ”

The Seventh Lady is a well-known maritime merchant in Changzhou.

After such a turmoil, the maritime merchant would naturally think of saving himself, but their reaction was a little quick and quite orderly, so he would suspect that someone was pointing from the side, a little like her handwriting.

However, if the Seventh Lady came forward, it would be reasonable.

Song Chengxuan stopped talking, turned around and walked back to the camp.

After Zhang Zhenren sent this letter, there was no news, and after catching Xie Yun, he found a suspicious person in Taiping Mansion, so it is very likely that Xie Yun is doing things for the White Dragon King.

In other words, the people behind Wang Yun are in collusion with the White Dragon King, knowing this result, can she still sit still?

I should be in Changzhou by now!

Song Chengxuan shouted eternal night.

Yongye breathed a sigh of relief, Childe finally remembered him, and after chasing Childe all the way from Beijing back to Beijing, for some reason, he always felt that the shoes on his feet were very small, and the stools he made on weekdays were also cold, and Childe seemed to have forgotten him.

Eternal Night stepped forward quickly.

Song Chengxuan said: "Pay attention to the movements of Changzhou maritime merchants. "If the maritime business is so active in prevention, there will definitely be the next move.

He and the Seventh Lady still know each other, and if they meet, it will be more convenient to talk. Genius remembers the first three or five in a second
