The two returned to the Fan family's old house, and six tables of food had been placed in the courtyard, and Guan Tongsheng beckoned to the two at a table, "Here, here." ”

Guan Tongsheng and Zhao Qianyuan were still holding Fan Tonghai one by one, and Hou Jie and several elders in the village were sitting at the same table. The meals are very simple, and it is very rare to be able to make six tables of meals in this messy situation.

After the meal, Guan Tongsheng said: "Brother Lian, Fan Tonghai is willing to testify against the person behind him, but he will not say who it is until he sees the emperor, so we must go to Beijing immediately to meet the emperor." ”

"See the emperor, good, good. ”

"This time this thing should be considered a matter of water. ”

Ye Yanshan said: "Where the stone came out, the copper coin hero has not been seen until now. ”

Brother Lian said: "Yes, there are still two people who may be killed, but it is always necessary to bring Fan Tonghai to the emperor and explain the affairs of the blacksmith village clearly." ”

Ye Yanshan glanced at her, "You don't want to ask the emperor, what is the capsule, right?"

Brother Lian said with a smile: "Of course it would be good if you could ask." But the emperor's temper doesn't seem to be very good, and I don't dare to touch him casually. ”

Ye Yanshan said: "Whether you see the emperor or not, you must return to the capital first, and it is best for Young Master Fan to be buried immediately." ”

After speaking, a few people looked back at Fan Tonghai on the side, Fan Tonghai saw Brother Lian and Ye Yanshan talking and laughing with Guan Tongsheng and others, and he was already so angry that his teeth itched, how many of the bodyguards he temporarily found were fake? But fortunately, those real bodyguards still saved their lives at critical moments.

Guan Tongsheng told him about the next arrangement, and when he heard that his son was going to be buried immediately, he couldn't help but cry again, but he also understood that it was really pointless to stop, and there was still a big family in the capital that needed his protection. He nodded resolutely, asked the village chief to find him, and explained the burial.

On the other side, Zhao Qianyuan gathered the Praetorian Guards, and soon fifty people arrived, and Lian Di watched coldly, and felt that these people had the feeling of special forces, their waists, arms, and legs were hiding things, and if they were taken out, they were exquisite weapons nine times out of ten. Brother Lian even wondered if they would suddenly pull out a pistol, which once again made her have more expectations for the emperor as a traverser.

The Praetorian Guards escorted everyone out of the blacksmith village and back to the capital. Unexpectedly, the sky was clear when we set off, but after a while, the clouds were thick, the weather was getting hotter and hotter, and it was about to rain heavily.

Zhao Qianyuan looked around and said that there was a mountain temple not far away, the area was quite large, so go over and avoid it first.

So everyone ran all the way to take refuge, this line of people was numerous, the mountain temple could not stay, and temporarily set up a shelter outside the shed, everyone found a place to sit on the ground, the rain fell overwhelmingly, it was really a downpour.

Everyone looked at the rain curtain in a helpless daze, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and there was no sign of stopping at all. Ye Yanshan walked to the window, put his hands behind his back, and looked at the heavy rain outside the window, with a solemn expression.

Brother Lian walked over and asked him, "What are you bothering about?"

He shook his head and said, "I don't know when the rain will stop, Fan Tonghai must be sent to Beijing as soon as possible, I am afraid that something will happen if it is too late." ”

When Brother Lian heard him say this, he was shocked, the people behind the scenes did not hesitate to kill the whole village to cover up the secret, how could they tolerate Fan Tonghai returning to Beijing, let alone let him go directly to the emperor, "Yes, they won't give up, where do you think they will intercept?"

"This way back is all official roads, and there is no dangerous place, so we can only rely on the number of people to rob, but it takes time for the other party to mobilize people, so we can only get ahead of them by returning to Beijing as quickly as possible. ”

"But now it's raining ......"

"yes, I can't see the road clearly, how to go?"

Even her younger brother was also worried, she looked back at Fan Tonghai and saw that he was sandwiched between Guan Tongsheng and Zhao Qianyuan like a golden treasure egg.

Although he had agreed to Guan Tongsheng to go to the court to make a confession, his eyes were flickering now, his fingertips were constantly rubbing, and he must still be thinking left and right in his heart, what was best for himself. Both of his toes were facing the temple gate, which showed that he wanted to escape the current situation, and he did not trust Guan Tongsheng or the emperor.

In the matter of Fan Tonghai's confession, he can't be too passive. Is it really important for Fan Tonghai to be a businessman and a blacksmith as a witness in the court? Guan Tongsheng's idea is still a little naïve, and he has to add more fire.

She slowly paced over and pushed Guan Tongsheng to the side, and sat down beside Fan Tonghai, "Master Fan," she greeted Fan Tonghai with a grin.

Fan Tonghai's lips tightened, and he turned his head aside angrily, ignoring her, this little black thin man was treacherous and cunning at first glance, and he didn't feel good when he came to him as a bodyguard.

Brother Lian didn't care about you so much, and said to himself: "Master Fan, if I were your master and didn't kill you last night, I would definitely not let you go today." ”

Fan Tonghai turned his head to stare at her, three points of anger and seven points of fear.

Brother Lian said: "I'm afraid, right? If you want me, I'm also afraid, because I know too many secrets of my master, and once I am abandoned, there is only one way to die." ”

Fan Tonghai's hand couldn't help but clench, and Brother Lian smiled faintly, knowing that he was nervous.

"Your master Zuo is just one of those people, and if you fight alone, you won't be able to win no matter what. If you say that if you beg him bitterly, what are the chances that he will let you go?"

Fan Tonghai looked dead, gritted his teeth and was silent, and even his younger brother said: "You also know that he can't, right? You have followed that person for many years, and you know how great his ability is, even so big that it exceeds people who shouldn't be surpassed." ”

Fan Tonghai glanced at Brother Lian in surprise, he didn't know what she wanted to do, and he dared to say such a big rebellious thing.

"Don't tell me that you don't think so, with a shrewd person like Master Fan, the person you choose must be a powerful person with a great chance of winning. Brother Lian joked, "Unfortunately, the truth may not be what you think." ”

Fan Tonghai frowned slightly, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and Brother Lian continued: "There were 100 killers who came to Tu Village last night, all of them had unique skills and were not weak in martial arts, while the Praetorian Guard only had 50 people, but they killed all the killers. Are you a smart person thinking for yourself, can such a fighting Praetorian Guard be trained by a weak and ridiculous person?"

Fan Tonghai's eyes lit up, and he slowly sat up straight, and his toes no longer pointed to the door. Brother Lian saw that the time was almost up, and said: "Originally, we rushed back to the capital, and everything was under control, but this heavy rain really helped your master, but it did you a disservice, and before you met the emperor, you were very dangerous." ”

Fan Tonghai frowned and pondered for a long time, and finally spoke: "What should I do? ”

Just waiting for you to ask for advice, Brother Lian smiled slightly, "The reason why your master is chasing you is because you know too many secrets about him, if his secret is no longer a secret, do you think he will spend hundreds of people to hunt you down like now?"

Fan Tonghai seemed to understand: "Please make it clear to the little brother." ”

"You are not the only one who knows the secret of your master's secret weapon-making, and he can't even find a way for the news to leak out, because we have seventy or eighty people here, all from the blacksmith village. ”

Fan Tonghai's eyes lit up again, and Brother Lian continued: "This is called transferring risks, anyway, he also wants you to die now, if you can't save yourself, make a mess and make him stink, it can be regarded as avenging yourself." If you don't die, and his behavior is known to the world, he has no way to take you, at most find two people to kill you to vent his anger, with the emperor as a backer, you hire a few more bodyguards, and you will live a rich life now. ”

Fan Tonghai was obviously moved by her, stared at her and said, "How do you want me to make it public?"

"Write down the secrets he did, the more the better, copy a few copies, let people quickly distribute them along the way, and finally leave a copy for the emperor to send back, and the emperor will definitely send someone to protect you and take you back to Beijing." ”

When Fan Tonghai heard that he wanted him to write it, he hesitated for a while and said, "Let me think about it again." ”

"You don't have a lot of time, so think about it. "Even my brother didn't want to push him too quickly, so as not to backfire. She got up and walked to Ye Yanshan's side and continued to watch the rain with him.

Ye Yanshan said: "He's moved?"

"He has no choice, an outcast, if he doesn't break the kettle, where will he survive. ”

It soon got dark, and the Praetorian Guards and bodyguards all brought dry rations before leaving, and everyone simply filled their stomachs and found a place to lie down and rest.

Guan Tongsheng found some hay, spread it out behind the statue of the mountain god, and asked Brother Lian to go to sleep, Brother Lian took Ye Yanshan's hand and went over, and Hou Jie also followed.

Brother Lian glared at him, "What are you doing here, that bit of hay can't sleep so many people." ”

Ye Yanshan also glanced back at him lightly, he stopped, his eyes swept over the hands of the two of them, and the corners of his mouth twitched without a trace.

Not only did the torrential rain not stop, but it also rumbled with thunder and lightning.

Brother Lian lay down with his back to Ye Yanshan, secretly pulled out the jade pendant from the collar, and played slowly, the warmth of the jade pendant passed from the palm to the heart, warm, and Brother Lian couldn't help but laugh.

Ye Yanshan asked, "What are you laughing at?"

Brother Lian said: "I didn't laugh at anything, that is, I was happy." She turned around and lay on her side, looked at Ye Yanshan and asked, "Xiao Ye, you and I are married to become in-laws, I don't know the situation in your family yet." ”

"My family ......" Ye Yanshan sighed slightly, "My parents have passed away, I am the youngest child in the family, my brothers have already married and are independent, and my sisters are also far away from their homeland and married to another country." The family business left by my ancestors is now handed over to a few old servants to help take care of it, and there is a teacher who teaches me how to manage the family property on weekdays, hoping that I can gain fame and glory to my ancestors. ”

"Oh. "It turns out that there are no in-laws, and you can be in charge of the family in the past, listening to what he said, it seems that there is still a lot of family property, how can such a diamond king be single until now?"

"There is Zhang Luo, but I am like this now, no one wants to come to the door to say goodbye. ”

"What is it now?"

"I want to be a criminal officer, but I can't get famous, you say, what good family is willing to marry a young lady to a servant. ”

"Who gave you the sachet?"

"My girl. ”

Brother Lian sat up and stared at Ye Yanshan, "Tongfang...... Girl?"

Ye Yanshan looked at her and said calmly: "Yes, but I haven't slept with her." ”

Brother Lian was overjoyed, lay down again, turned his back to him and said, "My fifth lady doesn't dislike you, you are a fool, go to sleep." He didn't lie, but he couldn't help but ask, "Isn't that girl of yours pretty?"

He chuckled and said, "It has nothing to do with looks. ”

Brother Lian sighed happily, this Ye Lingshan is really getting more and more cute.

The rain was still falling, and just after the third watch, the people on duty outside the temple changed shifts, and everything was normal, and there was no movement. Brother Lian slept very vigilantly and couldn't fall asleep steadily, but Ye Yanshan slept soundly. Half an hour after the third watch, Hou Jie suddenly jumped up and walked quickly to Ye Yanshan's side, but stretched out his hand and pushed Brother Lian, "Someone, here." ”
