Chapter 398: The enemy has changed, and I have changed
The place where Yan Liqiang ambushed the three people was not far from the place where Hu Haihe and they parked, and the straight-line distance was only a few hundred meters, although Hu Haihe didn't see what happened, but he vaguely heard the neighing of the rhinosaurus horse and the short screams from that direction, Hu Haihe immediately understood what was happening, and when he saw Yan Liqiang come back and simply said to leave, Hu Haihe's heart also felt nervous.
Re-lit the lantern hanging on the carriage to illuminate the road, Hu Haihe drove the carriage, waved the whip, and when the wheels were flying, he followed Yan Liqiang and galloped on the road.
"Driving...... Drive...... ...... driving"
The night is dark, but because the weather is very good today, under the light of the stars and moon, the visibility on the mountain road is not bad, and there are few people walking this official road at night, and there are basically no people on the road, so you can also let the carriages and horses run freely on the road.
The car and the horse had been galloping on the mountain road for more than an hour, and Yan Liqiang saw that there was a team of people on the road in front of him who were also rushing to the night road.
It was a caravan traveling in groups, with more than thirty horses and more than forty carriages, numbering about hundreds of people, some merchants and travelers, it should be a makeshift team, hearing the sound of hurried horses' hooves behind them, many of those caravans looked behind them, and some people directly held the bows they were carrying in their hands, looking vigilant.
It wasn't until Yan Liqiang and Hu Haihe appeared in their sight that it was only a horse and a cart coming from behind, that everyone's nerves relaxed together - if it was a robber, of course, it was impossible for two people to rob such a large team.
......When he ran to the tail of the caravan, Yan Liqiang suddenly slowed down his horse and hugged his fist at a few people behind the team, "Excuse me, are you going to Kunzhou?"
"Yes, we are going to Kunzhou together, tonight to catch a night road, if the son is on the same road, you might as well go on the road together, each other have a care, the general robbery is small, see so many of us, you must not dare to mess around!"
"It's so good, we're also going to Kunzhou, so let's go with you!" Yan Liqiang smiled, then turned his head to Hu Haihe and said, "Or you're right, as long as we are faster, we will definitely be able to meet a team of companions on this road, so it will be much safer, it seems that I took you out this time with the right one, you have learned a lot from your experience in running rivers and lakes outside over the years!"
Hu Haihe is also a clever person, and when he heard Yan Liqiang say this, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, "Thank you Gongzi for your compliment, my lord explained it, Gongzi went out to travel this time, and safety came first, so I asked me to catch the car for Gongzi!"
"Hmm!"
Hearing the conversation between Yan Liqiang and Hu Haihe, everyone in that team turned Yan Liqiang's brain into a young master who went out to travel, and they were not surprised one by one, and they were completely relieved.
When everyone walked this way, they almost came to the end, and drove nearly 100 miles, and finally came to a prosperous market town on the edge of the Lujiang River, and then they separated and found a place to stay.
After the Lujiang River, the opposite side is Kunzhou, there is a small wharf in the town here, there are ferries and passenger boats on the wharf, but the rule of ferries and passenger boats is that they will no longer cross the river when it gets dark, because the river is high and the waves are high at night, so a cadre can only wait until early tomorrow morning to cross the river.
Yan Liqiang naturally found the best inn in the town, asked for an independent courtyard, and settled down.
......
"Childe just ...... Did you kill someone just now?" When he brought washing water to Yan Liqiang's room, he saw Yan Liqiang washing his face, and Yu Qing, who was standing next to him, suddenly asked in a low voice.
Yan Liqiang stopped what he was doing, looked at Yu Qing, just muttered for two seconds, and then nodded calmly, "Yes, there are bad people following us, and they want to be unfavorable to us, so I have no choice but to make a move! I'm afraid this kind of thing will happen in the future, if you are afraid, I can entangle you, and find someone from the dart bureau to send you back to the imperial capital!"
"That's what I mean!" Yu Qing lowered her head, her voice became quieter and firmer, "I believe that Gongzi is a good person and will never kill innocents indiscriminately, so what Gongzi kills must be a bad person, I will follow Gongzi, where Gongzi goes, I will go, but unfortunately I don't know martial arts, if I know martial arts, I will be able to protect Gongzi in the future!"
"Don't worry, when you get to Ganzhou, I will teach you martial arts when I have time!" Yan Liqiang laughed, "By the way, how do you know that I killed someone?"
"Childe got the quiver in the car, there were three arrows missing, I heard Brother Hai say that Childe's archery skills are like gods, so I guess Childe must have killed people when we parked, and killed three!"
"I didn't expect you to be as careful as a hair!" Yan Liqiang suddenly understood, this point was exactly the same as a few years later, "By the way, do you remember the men's clothes I asked you to prepare before you went on the road? You will change into the prepared men's clothes tomorrow morning and be a small servant, so that it will be easier to go on the road!"
"Okay!" Yu Qing nodded obediently.
......
Early the next morning, Yu Qing really changed into men's clothes and hid her hair in her hat, plus she was originally thin and weak, and she was not very old, so she changed into men's clothes, and then deliberately spoke in a rough voice, which is really difficult for ordinary people to distinguish.
Yan Liqiang and they took the earliest ferry, crossed the Lujiang River, and entered the territory of Kunzhou, but on the same day, Yan Liqiang and they drove along the Lujiang River for a day, and came to Lingbai City, a big city in Kunzhou......
......
"What, Yan Liqiang lost it?" Lin Qingtian's hand holding the pen paused, and suddenly stopped in the air, and on the tip of the brush dipped in ink, a little ink gently fell on the drawing paper below, instantly "disfiguring" a painted begonia flower......
Gu Chunyi lowered his head, Lin Qingtian's eyes made his heart tremble slightly, Gu Chunyi couldn't help lowering his head slightly, and there was a hint of frustration in his tone, "I also just learned the news, the latest batch of three veterans who followed Yan Liqiang arranged by me have been missing for many days, and they haven't contacted the person who connected ......."
"Where did Yan Liqiang lose it?"
"Luzhou!"
"When?"
"It's been eleven days since those three people from the Criminal Department disappeared!"
Lin Qingtian raised his head, looked at the intricate patterns on the ceiling in the study, and muttered to himself, "Eleven days, Luzhou ......"
"Luzhou is a little far away from the imperial capital, and it takes time to confirm and deliver information in all aspects, so I was a little late when I learned the news......"
"How long does it take for you to deliver the news from Dijing City to Luzhou?"
"Even if I use the power of the Criminal Department, it will take at least two days for the news exchange between Dijing and Luzhou......"
"Is the route Yan Liqiang took before the same route that escorted Sun Bingchen back from Ganzhou?"
Gu Chunyi looked surprised, "Ah, my lord, how do you know?"
"Don't look for it, those three people who followed Yan Liqiang are already more than lucky!" Lin Qingtian dipped a little ink again, and then sketched on the thick ink that "disfigured" the begonia flower, without raising his head, " From the very beginning, Yan Liqiang knew that he was being followed, and the reason why he chose to take the route he escorted Sun Bingchen to Dijing to return was originally to deliberately deceive those who followed him and make the people who followed him careless, and the reason why he chose to do it in Luzhou was because Luzhou was very far away from Dijing City and Ganzhou, and it would take two days to transmit the news from Luzhou to Dijing City at the earliest, no matter how many people you have, you can't keep an eye on ......"
"Yan Liqiang is so cunning?" Gu Chunyi's tone was a little incredulous, because in his impression, Yan Liqiang had always been a hard-boned thorn, and he had never shown much scheming, but he didn't expect this thorn to have such a cunning side.
"Maybe we all underestimate that young man, that person can make a name for himself in the Imperial Capital City in a short period of time, and he does have some ability!"
Gu Chunhua looked angry and said fiercely. "Yan Liqiang is so bold that he dares to move the people of the Criminal Department, just this one can make him lose his head, so I'm not afraid that I will put him on a wanted warrant?"
"The key is that you have no evidence, the Criminal Department has disappeared three criminal arrests, and you say that Yan Liqiang killed them, why, if the one who lives in the palace asks you so, what do you say? The three criminal arrests of the Criminal Department secretly follow and monitor the court officials, which is already a big crime, if you want to cure Yan Liqiang's crime, you have to confess this crime yourself!"
"My lord, what ...... If there is no Yan Liqiang's whereabouts and news, even if Shi Minzhang and Lin Gongzi go to the northwest, it will be difficult for them to meet Yan Liqiang again, and they can't make a move, the previous plan ......"
"What do you think of my supplement?" Lin Qingtian picked up the pen, interrupted Gu Chunyi's words, and asked with satisfaction looking at what he had drawn with the ink that fell on the begonia flowers.
"Ah!" Gu Chunyi looked at Lin Qingtian's painting and found that in this moment, Lin Qingtian had turned that little bit of ink into a cute bee lying on the begonia flower, the bee was vivid and vivid, and he couldn't tell that it was Lin Qingtian making up the pen on a little ink.
"Adult painter, don't be ingenious, with this bee, the begonias in the garden will be vivid all of a sudden!" Gu Chunyi patted the fart and said.
"The enemy changes and I also change, the army is impermanent, the water is impermanent, why should we stick to the previous arrangement, since Yan Liqiang has found that he has been followed and has taken measures, then, he will no longer stupidly step into our trap, Shi Minzhang and Lin Zhe's previous plan will definitely not work, at this juncture, if the two of them want to risk being discovered to kill Yan Liqiang, it will be a big loss because of a small loss, the gain will outweigh the loss, and it will ruin my big thing, let Shi Minzhang come back, Lin Zhe will be sent to retreat when he comes back, don't wander outside!”
"My lord, just let that Yan Liqiang go?" Gu Chunyi said a little unwillingly.
A trace of coldness flashed on Lin Qingtian's face, "Let it go, of course not, didn't he do Qi Yun's supervision, just inform the people of the Shatu Seventh Division, and let the people of the Shatu Seventh Department deal with him, everything is justified, and the Black Wind Thief has also changed from virtual to real, who can't say that Baishiguan will not lose his life, if the Shatu Seventh Department can't even clean up a kid who hasn't grown hair in Ganzhou, then the Shatu Seventh Department will not be qualified to bargain with us in the future!"
"I got it......"
"You are a criminal arrest book, don't be swayed by your emotions, you will only stare at a hairy boy all day long, Zheng Huai'an's side is a big deal, you must do it solidly, and you can't make any mistakes......"
"Don't worry, I won't disappoint you......"
