Chen Nian raised his chin slightly when he heard this, although his eyes were still a little red, but he smiled at him and said, "That's good." ”

Seeing her like this, Lu Xiao's heart lit up again, paused, and asked again: "When are you going to visit the city and guard the mansion at night?" I'm coming for you. ”

He was injured, and Chen Nian naturally refused to ask him to go on any more adventures with him, so he said: "This matter is not urgent, you have to wait for the news from Brother Fan first, how can you have three or five days, you can recuperate with peace of mind first." ”

I didn't want to think that two days later, Fan Jingyun came back with a lot of news, not only did he find out the patrol situation of the guards of the city guard mansion, but even the approximate amount of the official silver was also checked.

"In the past, no matter what Xuanzhou did secretly, he still had to obey the will of the imperial court on the face, and he would pay some taxes and silver to Shengdu every year. But since the war in Jiangbei, Xuanzhou stopped the tax under the pretext that the road was unstable. Fan Jingyun said carefully, and then took out the layout plan of the city guard mansion that he got out of nowhere to show Chen Nian, pointed to one of the places and said: "It is said that there are still many of them stored here, but they are also very tightly guarded. ”

Chen Nian looked at Fan Jingyun and smiled, and said, "Brother Fan is a good method, and he is really condescending in our village." ”

Fan Jingyun didn't know whether she was really praising or falsely praising it, so she had to respond without humility or arrogance: "The big boss has won the award." ”

Chen Nian looked down at the drawing, pondered silently for a moment, and muttered: "I have to go and explore it carefully, I see that this matter is not so simple." ”

That night, she and Lu Xiao changed their night clothes and went to the Xuanzhou City Guard's Mansion, and after coming back, they said to Fan Jingyun: "There is not much money in the library, it is estimated that it is just a trick." ”

Fan Jingyunqi said: "How can it be a trick." ”

Chen Nian said with a smile: "I'm a serious mountain bandit, and I'm doing this business, as long as I stand outside that door and smell it, I will know if there is any silver inside." ”

Fan Jingyun looked surprised and half-convinced, Lu Xiao looked at him like this, and couldn't help but say: "Don't listen to her nonsense, she is joking with you." ”

Chen Nian smiled, and then explained to Fan Jingyun: "We deliberately waited for the official in charge of the treasury to check the treasury, and as soon as I saw the look on his face, I guessed that there was not much silver in it. Although his face is also serious, his steps are brisk, without pressure, and he can't deceive people. ”

Fan Jingyun thought for a while and discussed with Chen Nian: "Then I'll check again, this time I'm not just staring at the city guard." ”

Chen Nian nodded, and said, "Staring at people, let's follow the vine." ”

Fan Jingyun got her orders and said goodbye and went out, just when he arrived at the staircase, Chen Nian chased him out of the room, and said with a smile: "Brother Fan, I want to go out and buy some things, you may accompany me." ”

Fan Jingyun was a little puzzled, and couldn't help but glance behind her.

Chen Nian glanced back at his line of sight, and saw Lu Xiao coming out from behind, so he turned around and explained to him: "There are people in the inn, you just watch here, I asked Brother Fan to accompany me to buy some things, it's easy to come out, why don't you have to bring some things back to my master." ”

There were more than a dozen people with them this time, and in addition to those who were sent out to do things, there were seven or eight people in the inn, so they wanted to leave one who could be in charge. Lu Xiao nodded and responded, "Okay." ”

Chen Nian went out with Fan Jingyun and stayed until there was no one, but asked Fan Jingyun: "You may find out where the Tuoba Yao people are." ”

Fan Jingyun had already guessed that Chen Nian wanted to avoid Lu Xiao because of something, but he didn't want to do it, thought about it for a while, and replied: "Although there are a lot of Xian people in Xuanzhou City right now, if you have the heart to check those people, it is not difficult. They went outside the city at night to enjoy the flowers, thinking that there was a place to stay outside the city. ”

Chen Nian said: "Okay, then you have to check." ”

Fan Jingyun looked at Chen Nian, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Big boss, I have something I want to persuade you, since we still want to do this business in Xuanzhou, it is better to have more than one thing." It's better to endure the anger for a while, and settle the account later. ”

Chen Nian smiled when he heard this, and said, "Brother Fan, you think badly, my heart is so small." I checked their whereabouts, and I used them for my own purposes, but not just to fight him. ”

When Fan Jingyun heard her say this, he didn't ask anymore and responded, "Okay, I'll check." ”

Chen Nian said again: "You need to be careful about this matter, don't use the people in our village." In addition, you can secretly find some Xian people, imitate Tuoba Yao's dress, find a house near the city guard mansion to rent, and tell them to close the door every day, and only send two people out in the morning and evening to hang around. ”

Fan Jingyun nodded his head one by one.

Chen Nian broke up with him on the street and said with a smile: "You go to do your own business, I will go around at will by myself, and I will go back before dark." ”

She smiled and smiled, and when she spoke, she returned to her former kindness, and she lost all the indifference and meanness on the street that day. Fan Jingyun secretly said that this person's temper is really weird, so that people can't figure it out at all, and they don't know how the prince used to get along with her. I couldn't help but be secretly surprised that someone like the prince could stand her temper.

If Fan Jingyun is worthy of being the leader of the Fengjun Yang faction outside the pass, it was only three or two days before he found the true location of the official silver, and found out the whereabouts of Tuoba Yao, and secretly told Chen Nian in private, "They came a few days earlier than us, and they stayed in the city for two nights before, and then they have been outside the city. ”

"You know where to go." Chen Nian asked again.

Fan Jingyun replied: "It's time to go back, I heard that the Xian family is moving the capital now, so he should go back to Beijing." ”

Chen Nian shook his head and said, "Not necessarily, you ask people to stare secretly, you must see where they are going." Also, the Xian people you hired were useless, so you secretly dispersed them and vacated the house. ”

She whispered to Fan Jingyun how to act, and when she heard Fan Jingyun's face change slightly, she exclaimed, "You want to detain this matter to Tuoba Yao." ”

Chen Nian smiled, "Look at their actions, they must have come to Xuanzhou to hide from others, so ask Xuanzhou to check on them first, and then let's talk about it, when the two of them are cleared, we will already go back to the village." ”

Fan Jingyun's eyes flashed with some light, and said, "That's right," he hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I'm afraid that this matter will have to be hidden from Lu Shaoxia." ”

Chen Nian smiled: "Don't worry, I know." ”

Early in the morning of the second day, someone sent news to Fan Jingyun, saying that the Xian people had gone southwest. Fan Jingyun was a little puzzled, and discussed with Chen Nian: "How can you go southwest." I want to go to Qingzhou. ”

Chen Nian pondered and was silent, the inside of the pass is not better than the outside of the pass, this team of Xian people in Xuanzhou is not eye-catching, but if it passes Yanci Mountain, it will definitely be noticed by people with a heart, since Tuoba Yao dares to go, there must be someone over there to answer. And Qingzhou is now in the hands of Xue Shengying, which can be regarded as Feng Junyang's territory, what is Tuoba Yao going to do there.

She glanced at Fan Jingyun unconsciously, Fan Jingyun guessed her thoughts, and immediately replied: "The prince should not know yet, and I reported all the news outside the gate." ”

Chen Nian couldn't figure it out for a while, and he didn't feel a little distressed, but after thinking about it, no matter what this Tuoba Yao did, it wouldn't have anything to do with her small cottage anyway, so why bother with it. She said: "It doesn't matter what he is going to do, just look at which way they go, and then lead the people of Xuanzhou over." ”

These days, they buy a lot of goods from the north, which are of little value but occupy a lot of space. Chen Nian asked everyone to load the goods and go out of the city in a big way, heading towards Jizhou. That night, she took Lu Xiao and a few good people in the stockade to sneak back to Xuanzhou, found the house where the official silver was hidden, used medicine to put down some guards, killed a few more, and looted the gold and silver hidden in the cellar.

Chen Nian carried a lot of gold on his back, stupidly tall and strong, and carried the most, but when he climbed the city wall, he was clumsy, and he had to work together with Chen Nian and Lu Xiao, so he was lifted up with a rope with a package. Chen Nian was so tired that he gasped, and said hatefully: "I just think that you are much stronger, and I don't want you to sink like this, but it can be regarded as a loss-making deal." ”

Silly hehehe smirked, grabbed the package on Chen Nian's back, and said quietly: "Big boss, I will carry it for you." ”

Fan Jingyun had already led people to answer outside the city, and Chen Nian handed him a bag of official silver, and said, "Let's go our separate ways, and you will return to the village after you are done." ”

They had made arrangements before, and Fan Jingyun didn't say much at the moment, so he took the seven or eight people to ride their horses on another road. Silly looked strange, and couldn't help but ask Chen Nian: "Big boss, these people around Brother Fan are also brothers in our village." I've never seen it before. ”

Chen Nian scolded with a smile: "Less nonsense, hurry up, everyone is still waiting for us in front." ”

A few of them did not ride horses, Chen Nian took the lead in sweeping forward, and everyone was busy chasing after them, so they traveled dozens of miles, and at dawn, they caught up with the team that set off in advance, hid the gold and silver in the truck, dressed like ordinary merchants, and went in the direction of Jizhou.

The territory of Jizhou is quite stable, but everyone is still worried all the way, until they turn into the Taihang Mountain, then they breathe a sigh of relief, find a steep place, even the car and goods are pushed off the cliff, only with gold and silver to ride a horse. Lu Xiao only knew that Fan Jingyun was leading people to lead away the pursuers, and seeing that his people were going smoothly, he didn't feel a little worried about Fan Jingyun, and while he was resting, he said to Chen Nian in private: "I don't know what happened to Fan Jingyun, he doesn't have any martial arts, don't make any mistakes, it's time for me to go." ”

Chen Nian was silent for a moment, and then said softly: "You don't need to worry about him, if something really goes wrong, it's best if you can't come back." ”

Lu Xiao didn't know why Chen Nian suddenly said such ruthless words, and he frowned slightly, so he heard Chen Nian explain again: "He is not a fleeing homeless person, he is a person who is a feudal king, and he has great skills, and he came to the village to check my life experience." ”

As soon as these words came out, Lu Xiao's body suddenly stiffened.

Chen Nian looked at him calmly and asked, "I'm the real orphan of the princess, isn't it?" ”

Lu Xiao was speechless for a long time.

If there is no denial, it means that it is affirmed. Chen Nian smiled lightly, took his eyes off Lu Xiao's face, lowered his head slightly, and after a while, suddenly said softly: "I wanted to hide it from you all the time, pretending that I didn't know." But what I hate most is to be hidden, how can I hide it from you again. It's obvious that he is a person who can change his life, but he has to hide it, and he is too tired. ”

Lu Xiao looked at her for a moment and said in a low voice, "I didn't mean to hide it from you. ”

"No matter what, you are very good to me, you are really good to me, and I can still tell the difference." Chen Nian raised his eyes to look at him, and after a long time, he asked him again: "Lu Xiao, I don't care why you came to me, I just want to ask you now, you may only be Xie Chennian in the future." ”

Lu Xiao knew what she meant, and wanted to tell her that in his heart, she had always been just Xie Chennian, but because the matter there had not been resolved, and what had not been done, he couldn't guarantee her.

Chen Nian saw that he didn't answer for a long time, and then he had the answer in his heart, his bright eyes dimmed a little, but the corners of his mouth were still struggling to turn up, and he said in a low voice: "I'm sorry, I'm too willful, and I have never said this today." ”

After she finished speaking, she got up and beckoned everyone to hurry, and the crisp and hearty voice came far away in the mountains, "Hurry up, bear with it a little longer, I can rush to the village before dark, if it's the master, I will get up, let's do such a big deal and come back, all of them are heroes, don't all look like a bear,"

Although everyone was extremely tired, they were excited by her words, and they all stood up, led the horse and hurried again, and sure enough, they rushed to Hukou Ridge before dark. Cui Xi and Wen Daya came down the mountain, and then Chen Nian and the others went up the mountain and said, "Dao Chief, they are also back." ”

Chen Nian was overjoyed when he heard this, and asked repeatedly, "They are also back." When it arrived. The road was also smooth. ”

"I just arrived yesterday and came back with a lot of medicinal herbs. It was very smooth in Yunxi, but something happened a few days ago in Shengdu, and the entire Jiangnan involved was very chaotic, and the Taoist leaders were also affected, but fortunately, they were all in danger and came back safely all the way. Cui Xi replied one by one.

Chen Nian heard that Jiangnan was in chaos again, and frowned deeply, and said, "There is no peaceful place in the world," she paused for a moment, and then asked Cui Xi, "Fan Jingyun is back." ”

Cui Xi shook his head and said, "Not yet, but I have asked someone to send the news back." Why isn't he with you? ”

Chen Nian replied: "For some reasons, we will be separated in Xuanzhou, and I will talk to you in detail when I get back." ”

Cui Xi responded, looked at Chen Nian, and then looked at Lu Xiao beside her, hesitated for a moment, and then whispered again: "The Taoist chief also brought someone back, saying that he wanted to see you." ”

"See me." Chen Nian was a little surprised, and asked Cui Xidao, "What kind of person?" ”

I didn't want Cui Xi to answer, but he just said: "You will know when you see it." ”
