Chapter 34: The Escape

Duan Feng returned to his residence, still feeling palpitations about the events of the day, although it was dangerous, but after all, the plan was successfully completed, and Liu Wenfei also successfully escaped from the city.

Lying on the bed, Duan Feng suddenly felt an inexplicable pleasure in his heart, perhaps because he had been bound by rules since he was a child, and he had never really done anything that suited his heart.

Thinking of the scene of fighting with Ouyang Xuan during the day, she was obviously deliberately showing mercy to her subordinates, thinking of this, Duan Feng felt even more happy in his heart.

Duan Feng smiled and flipped his body, ready to rest. Suddenly, Duan Feng suddenly sat up and reached out to wipe his waist.

"Yu Peina!"

Duan Feng turned over and got out of bed, searched his body carefully, and then squatted on the stool in amazement, and slammed the table hard, "It must have been lost during the fight!"

If the jade pendant is just lost, it doesn't matter, a jade pendant is at most a few thousand taels of silver, but if it is lost at the scene of the crime and picked up by the officials and soldiers, it will be troublesome.

Duan Feng hurriedly ran to Han Qing's room and told him about the jade pendant, Han Qing was startled at first, and then calmed down, "The situation was chaotic at that time, and the scene environment was also very dirty, the jade pendant may have been lost in a corner." ”

The two quietly went out and returned the same way, hoping to find Yu Pei.

But when I arrived at the rescue scene, I saw that the originally chaotic street was clean and abnormal, as if someone had specially cleaned it, and there was no trace of a fight.

Han Qing suddenly realized in his heart that they seemed to have been set a trap, and they had been acting according to someone else's plan all along, but the matter had come to this point, no matter whether things were really as they thought or not, they were irreparable.

The two of them had the same thoughts in their hearts, and they looked at each other worriedly, and they could only hope for the will of heaven.

The two carefully searched the streets several times, but found nothing.

Just then, the two saw a dark figure walking towards them from the other side of the street, with his hands behind his back, and a sword looming.

"What a familiar figure?" Duan Feng looked at the visitor vigilantly.

When I got closer, it was Ouyang Xuan. It turned out that since Liu Nanchun left the post house, Ouyang Xuan was in a very low mood, so he decided to come out to relax, and came here inexplicably.

Duan Feng saw that it was Ouyang Xuan, and immediately pretended to be casual and asked, "Miss Ouyang, why did you come here?"

Ouyang Xuan saw that it was Duan Feng, and then looked at the surrounding streets, first startled, and then immediately understood in his heart, sneered, and said, "It's nothing, come out and relax." I wonder what Duan Gongzi is doing here?"

Duan Feng replied: "The moon and stars are rare, come out to admire the moon, just passing by here." ”

Ouyang Xuan looked up at the dark sky, although there was a moon, but it was only a waning moon, so he sneered twice.

Then he looked at Han Qing behind Duan Feng, Han Qing was looking at him suspiciously, Ouyang Xuan ignored it and said, "You two are admiring the moon?"

Duan Feng suddenly realized that something was wrong, and smiled awkwardly: "Coincidence!

"I see, the two of you should hurry back, the city has not been peaceful lately. ”

Ouyang Xuan turned around and prepared to leave, the Tianming Sword in his hand lying behind him.

Duan Feng returned: "Miss Xie Ouyang cares, let's go back." ”

Duan Feng turned around and was about to leave, but Ouyang Xuan said again: "I heard that someone is robbing prisoners here today, I wonder if the two of you have heard about it?"

Duan Feng didn't look back, and said, "I've heard about it, but I don't know much about it." ”

Ouyang Xuan replied: "It is said that they successfully kidnapped the prisoners, and the officers and soldiers suffered heavy casualties. ”

After hearing this, Duan Feng said, "That's really unfortunate, who is so bold?" ”

"It's not clear yet, but it's okay. Ouyang Xuan then added, "But they can't run." ”

Duan Feng was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then turned around and asked, "Really, have you caught their people?"

Ouyang Xuan said: "No one was caught, but one of the suspects seems to have lost something at the scene, as if it was a jade pendant." ”

"It must be his own!" Duan Feng was shocked, sweat broke out on his head, and then he pretended to be calm and asked, "Do you know whose it is?"

"I don't know yet, but early tomorrow morning, the government will send someone to claim it. Ouyang Xuan said.

"There are so many people in Phoenix City, when do you have to recognize this?" Duan Feng said.

Ouyang Xuan sneered and said, "It's okay, that jade pendant is a high-end product at first glance, and it is worth a lot of money, and few people in Phoenix City can afford it, so the scope is much smaller." Tomorrow the Phoenix City Gate will be opened, and it won't take long to find the suspect. Hopefully, the suspect has escaped Phoenix. ”

Duan Feng suddenly panicked in his heart, and at this time he just wanted to leave quickly, and said casually: "Then I wish Miss Ouyang to catch the suspect as soon as possible." Then he picked up Han Qing and left in a hurry.

Ouyang Xuan looked at Duan Feng's disappearing back, sighed deeply, and then turned around to leave.

That night, Duan Feng and Han Qing returned to their residence and summoned Su Yanjun and Liu Yuwei to discuss countermeasures.

"In that case, you better leave Phoenix City quickly. Han Qing said.

"No, what should you do if I'm gone, besides, this will affect my eldest brother and father. Duan Feng refused.

"If you don't leave, once your identity is exposed tomorrow, you will not only be unable to protect yourself, but also your family. Han Qing persuaded: "What's more, judging from Ouyang Xuan's words today, it seems that she deliberately revealed the news to you, the purpose of which is to get you out of the city quickly." ”

Thinking of Ouyang Xuan, Duan Feng felt a burst of gratitude in his heart, but he couldn't understand her true thoughts, in his eyes, there seemed to be a layer of tissue paper between the two, which could not be broken, and they were constantly separated.

"Brother Han is right, robbing prisoners is a capital crime, even the city lord can't save you!"

Liu Yuwei was more anxious than Duan Feng at this time, and kept persuading Duan Feng to escape, but Duan Feng's heart was much calmer, which made everyone even more anxious.

Duan Feng was worried that his escape would affect his family, and it might also affect everyone, in addition, this matter was caused by himself from beginning to end, and now, Liu Wenfei has fled, if he also escapes, I am afraid that this matter will continue endlessly, if he bears the consequences, this matter can be understood smoothly. Thinking of this, Duan Feng felt a burst of relief in his heart.

However, others didn't think so, especially Liu Yuwei, whose tears were already rolling in her eyes at this time, and threatened to flee with Duan Feng.

Everyone tried hard to persuade Duan Feng, but in the end, Duan Feng couldn't persuade Duan Feng, Duan Feng was lying on the bed, crossing Erlang's legs, looking indifferent.

Han Qing glanced at Su Yanjun and then at Liu Yuwei, and the two instantly understood what Han Qing meant.

I saw Han Qing pull up Duan Feng and take advantage of his unpreparedness, raised his right palm, and slashed at the back of Duan Feng's head, and Duan Feng lay on the table.

Liu Yuwei and the others hurriedly packed a few pieces of luggage, Han Qing carried Duan Feng on his back, found a carriage, and the four of them secretly came to the west gate of the city at night, at this time the city gate was closed, and it was not yet time to open the city gate.

Liu Yu took out his waist card slightly, and the goalkeeper saw that it was Liufu's waist card, and hurriedly sent someone to open the door.

A few people took advantage of the night to quickly leave the city, and Liu Yuwei drove the carriage all the way west. Han Qing and Su Yanjun continued to return to their residences to discuss countermeasures for the next day.

In the early morning of the next day, Ouyang Xuan really led the Imperial Forest Guard to gather all the dignitaries and dignitaries in Phoenix City in the Qiqi Hall.

According to Liu Nanchun's instructions, all the qi and non-staff personnel with qi in the Qi Control Hall were all present.

There was a lot of talk in the bustling crowd, and many speculated that it might have something to do with yesterday's prisoner robbery.

Ouyang Xuan tidied up the team, deliberately observed the people in the Qi Control Hall, and found that Duan Feng was not among them, and he was slightly relieved.

When Ouyang Xuan took out the jade pendant, everyone quieted down, people looked at the jade pendant and pointed, and talked in a low voice, although some people talked about seeing the jade pendant in private, but no one admitted to knowing the jade pendant.

Just when Ouyang Xuan asked for the third time, suddenly a person stood up in the crowd and shouted, "I know." ”

This person was none other than Yun Tianlong. I saw Yun Tianlong squeeze out of the crowd, jumped onto the stage, clasped his fists at the crowd and saluted, and then turned to Ouyang Xuan and said, "I know this jade pendant." ”

Hearing that it was Yun Tianlong's voice, Ouyang Xuan felt unhappy in his heart, but still asked, "Do you know?"

Yun Tianlong replied, "Yes." Not only do I know the owner of this jade pendant, but I also know what the owner of this jade pendant has done. ”

Rumors arose in the audience for a while, Ouyang Xuan coldly glanced at the crowd in the audience, and then looked at Liu Nanchun, who had been silent next to him.

Yun Tianlong continued: "This jade pendant belongs to Duan Feng, the second son of the Duan family. ”

As soon as these words came out, it was like a thunderclap that exploded in the crowd, which immediately caused a commotion in the crowd, and someone whispered: "That's right, I look familiar with it." ”

Ouyang Xuan stretched out his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and said, "Yun Tianlong, you have a basis for what you say. If you dare to slander, not only will the Duan City Lord not be able to spare you, but even the deity will not spare you. ”

I saw Yun Tianlong say unhurriedly: "I have a witness." ”

After a while, I saw a man dressed timidly walked out of the crowd, climbed onto the stage, coughed his head at Liu Nanchun, and then faced the crowd, his eyes kept rolling.

Yun Tianlong said: "On the night of the incident, this person personally saw Duan Feng and the others enter the City God Temple with the fugitives. Let him tell him the specifics. ”

The husband told in detail what he saw that night, and this time it completely caused an uproar in the crowd, and everyone expressed their disbelief that Duan Feng dared to do such a thing.

In the past, Duan Tiande concealed everyone's selection of tomb guards that made everyone very dissatisfied with the Duan family, but this time, Duan Feng made another robbery, which made everyone question the prestige of the Duan family.

As for whether what the husband said was true, it turned out that that night, the husband did see someone sneaking into the temple, but because it was too dark and everyone was masked, the husband could not confirm the identity of the visitor.

As for why the husband said that it was Duan Feng and the others, of course it was instructed by Yun Tianlong.

At this time, Yun had just arrived from the camp when he heard about the robbery of the prisoners, and then hurried to the Qi Control Hall.

Seeing Duan Yun coming, Ouyang Xuan turned to Duan Yun and said, "Lord Duan, you see that the human and material evidence are all there, in order to return the second son's innocence, I also ask Lord Duan to invite the second son to confront the witnesses face to face, so as to clear the charge of the second son." ”

Duan Yun also heard about the Qi Control Hall along the way, so he looked at Ouyang Xuan, then at Yun Tianlong next to him, and looking at Duan Yun's murderous eyes, Yun Tianlong couldn't help but lower his head.

After a while, Duan Yun said, "Since there are all the human and material evidence, I have nothing to say. As for the younger brother, he has not returned home these days, and has been staying in the Qitang Hall. ”

Ouyang Xuan looked at Liu Nanchun, Liu Nanchun stood up and said, "I haven't found Duan Feng's whereabouts since this morning. ”

Ouyang Xuan said: "Is it out to play, send someone to find it." ”

At this time, a city defense soldier outside the gate asked to see him, and Ouyang Xuan let the soldier in.

The soldier told Ouyang Xuan about seeing Liu Yuwei, Han Qing and others out of the city last night. Ouyang Xuan immediately questioned Han Qing and Su Yanjun, and the two of them said that they only went out to do some personal things, but they did not admit that there was a wind.

Although Han Qing knew that his defense was only in vain, and he could only delay time, the two of them still denied it, and as long as they couldn't catch Duan Feng, even if they were suspicious, Ouyang Xuan couldn't do anything with them.

With the confession of the soldiers defending the city and Duan Feng's escape, the case has basically been determined by this point.

However, Ouyang Xuan did not rush to finalize the case, but just sent someone to hunt down Duan Feng, and did not make a verdict, but announced that he would report to Ouyang Zhen, and Ouyang Zhen would review it before making plans.

After everyone left the main hall, Han Qing and Su Yanjun hurriedly went to Duan Mansion after they went back, they felt that Duan Qing should know about such a fight, although Duan Qing couldn't save Duan Feng, at least let the Duan family be prepared.
