After waiting for a long time, it was finally Chen An's turn to accept the interrogation of entering the city.

"Yunqingmen's subordinate dart line, who is escorting, and where are you going?"

A tall and thin soldier in charge of the check-in at the pass had a long face, and he frowned immediately after seeing the dart flag planted on the carriage behind Sun Dart.

"If you go back to the military master, the inferior people are escorting a pair of young masters and servants, and then they are going to Yongping Mansion, the final destination of the trip. Sun Darttou rarely put away his usual arrogance, and didn't seem to dare to make a mistake in front of the other party.

When the tall and thin man heard this, he walked directly towards the carriage.

He waved his hand at the driver of the carriage, and then opened the curtain of the carriage with his spear and looked in, only to see a short-haired young man with an indifferent expression, holding a frightened little girl in his arms and staring at him.

"Dare to ask Your Excellency, but it is Miss Tang, the daughter of Tang Xuanfu!"

Unexpectedly, as soon as the thin and tall pawn spoke, the atmosphere around him instantly became tense and solidified.

"Yes and what, and what is not?"

Chen An held the steel knife hidden behind him tightly and said quietly.

"On the orders of Tang Xuanfu, the lowly people are waiting for the arrival of their families at Yanshan Pass at any time. The tall and thin pawn suddenly clenched his fists and bowed.

"Ah...... Did your father tell you to pick us up?"

The little girl in Chen An's arms exclaimed, and suddenly her little face turned her head excitedly to look at the tall and thin pawn outside the car.

"So you're really Miss Tang?" said the tall and thin pawn with a smile on his serious face. "What he said is true, some time ago, Tang Xuanfu did order me to wait here for the arrival of the eldest lady and others. ”

"It's really my father, it's really my father who came to pick me up......" The little girl cried with joy and pulled Chen An's hand, but she couldn't help but cry sadly as she spoke. "But my mother will never see my father again, woo woo ......"

The tall and thin pawn immediately changed his expression, and at the same time stared at Chen An and said coldly. "Dare to ask Your Excellency, what happened to Tang Xuanfu's wife?"

"They were attacked by robbers on the road......"

Chen An looked at the tall and thin man with an expressionless face, and told the little girl, mother and daughter.

The tall and thin pawn was silent for a long time, and said: "Please also ask the eldest lady to mourn, I think Lord Tang Xuanfu will definitely investigate this matter clearly and give her wife an explanation!"

After speaking, he turned to Chen An and hugged his fists and said: "I am here to thank Your Excellency for Your Excellency's high righteousness for Lord Tang Xuanfu, if it weren't for Your Excellency's rescue, I'm afraid Tang Xuanfu would be completely separated from his family." ”

The situation that happened in the carriage made the dart masters of the surrounding Yunqingmen fall into a daze, especially Sun Darttou himself was even more dumbfounded, he didn't expect the person they escorted to be so profound! The problem is that Chen An didn't tell them at all at that time! Thinking back to his arrogant and rude attitude in front of the other party before, he was simply deliberately pushing him into the fire pit!

Fortunately, no one paid attention to Sun Darttou's inner entanglement, because the thin and tall pawn walked up to him and bluntly said that they would take over the escort of Tang Xuanfu's daughter to Yongping Mansion next, and they could go back to the house directly.

Sun Darttou was amnesty for this, he explained the situation to his employer Chen An, and immediately after receiving the promise, he turned around and left Yanshan Pass with the dart shop.

"This righteous man and Miss Tang, the two of you will enter the customs with me, and the lowly Shangguan will come to hear the sound and will give the two of them a special pick-up. ”

The tall and thin pawn returned to the carriage and bowed to Chen An.

......

After the carriage slowly drove into Yanshan Pass, the tall and thin pawn arranged Chen An and the little girl into a single-family house, and immediately claimed that he had other important matters to leave for the time being. I will come back later to pick up the two of them and go to the reception banquet.

Different from the little girl's joyful feelings, from beginning to end, Chen An maintained an indifferent look, as if he was completely at the mercy of the other party.

He was not surprised that Tang Xuanfu would order someone to wait for the arrival of his family in advance, he was strange how the tall and thin pawn recognized the identity of the little girl at a glance! This would make any normal person feel strange, so he dared to conclude that someone must have secretly informed the other party of their whereabouts and characteristics, otherwise it would be difficult to explain the tall and thin pawn's "discerning eyes".

So who could this person be? Tang Xuanfu? Or are they those who are behind the scenes to be unfavorable to Tang Xuanfu?

Before there is a clear result, Chen An will never dare to act rashly.

Because this is Yanshan Pass, where 3,000 soldiers are stationed, once he resists, he may let the other party seize the handle, thus framing him as a thief and dispatching troops to kill him, Chen An does not think that he can protect the little girl in this situation to kill a bloody way, so he can only choose to quietly wait and see.

After the tall and thin soldier left, he found that there were obviously soldiers guarding the gate outside the courtyard, and I was afraid that he would not be able to get out.

Seeing that the sun was approaching and the other party would come to the door again at any time, Chen An immediately began to prepare for precautions, he took out two sharp daggers with sheaths from the trophies hidden in the carriage, one was hidden in his boots, and the other was handed to the little girl with an ignorant face, and repeatedly told her that she must hide the dagger well.

After all, no one knows that the waiting reception banquet will not be a Hongmen banquet, and it is always wrong to prevent trouble before it happens.

Soon, the tall and thin pawn returned, and at the same time said that his Shangguan had set up a reception banquet for the two of them in the mansion.

Chen An tentatively refused on the pretext of fatigue from the journey, but the attitude of the tall and thin soldier was very persistent, and it was clear that it was difficult to prepare a strong man, and finally directly asked the accompanying soldiers to prepare a carriage outside the courtyard, just waiting for them to get on the carriage for the banquet.

Seeing that things could not be done, and a stalemate would undoubtedly lead to greater contradictions, so he had no choice but to agree.

When he was about to go out with a knife, he was stopped by the tall and thin guard, and according to him, the governor's mansion was not allowed to enter with a knife.

At this time, if Chen An still didn't know the other party's intentions, he would really be stupid.

Man is a sword, I am a fish.

Could it be that he will break out now and strike first?

It is not difficult to kill the tall and thin soldier in front of him and the soldiers around him, but the difficult thing is how to escape from the encirclement and interception of Yanshan Pass after committing a real crime?

Reason told Chen An not to act impulsively, and to respond to changes for the time being.

Then he and the little girl boarded the carriage to the governor's house.

After arriving at the Governor's Mansion, the soldiers at the gate of the Mansion unsurprisingly searched Chen An's body before entering the door, and the dagger hidden in the boots did not hide from the other party at all, but fortunately they did not search the little girl out of etiquette, and kept his only weapon hidden on the little girl's body in case.

The Governor's Mansion is quite extensive, walk straight from the front yard corridor, pass through the second door, and then there is the lobby of the Governor's Mansion.

At this time, the lanterns of the governor's mansion were hung high, and the soldiers on duty could be seen everywhere under the corridor and eaves, and when they arrived in the lobby, the first thing that caught their eyes was a large round table in the center of the hall that could seat more than 20 people, and opposite the round table sat a general in armor, who thought it was the governor of Yanshan Pass who invited the two to the banquet this time.

Seeing the two of them, the governor did not mean to get up to greet them, but smiled and arched his hand at them, waved them to sit down, and then called the maid next to him to start serving.

"In Xiayanshan Pass, Governor Yin Cheng, I have seen Tang Xuanfu's daughter and this strong man!"

Different from the little girl's restraint, in the face of Yin Cheng's seemingly heroic and straightforward greeting, Chen An responded with a cold attitude.

"I heard that the two of them arrived at Yanshan Pass after ups and downs, and expressed deep condolences to the official for the misfortune that happened to his sister-in-law. ”

After the maid finished serving tea, Yin Cheng deliberately picked up the cup in front of the table and toasted to the two.

The little girl was about to raise a glass of tea out of politeness, but Chen An stopped her.

"What do you mean?"

Seeing this, Yin Cheng's face instantly became gloomy.

"Captain Yin, I also want to ask you, what is your intention in forcibly inviting us over to the banquet?"

Chen An was too lazy to be false and wronged with the other party, so he simply went straight to the point.

"Hahaha...... What you say is exactly what I want, Lao Tzu is a rough man who doesn't want to play any more hypocritical feelings with you, and he is beating around the bush!!"

Yin Cheng suddenly burst out laughing, and at the same time, a group of soldiers suddenly poured into the hall and surrounded them.

He stood up, pressed his hands on the table, and stared at Chen An with fierce eyes: "Lao Tzu was entrusted to take back something from you!"

"You mean the token that is related to Zuo Gong's secret treasure?" Chen An suddenly realized.

"What do you think Lao Tzu is asking for?" Yin Cheng sneered.

"I'm sorry to tell you that I don't have the token you want. Chen An said in a deep voice.

"Hehe, you said no, no, you think Lao Tzu is a three-year-old child so easy to deceive?!"

Yin Cheng slapped the table angrily with both hands, and as a result, the little girl next to Chen An screamed with a pale face, she hugged Chen An, and her whole head was buried in Chen An's arms and trembled.

"I did find a token in the items left by Mrs. Tang Xuanfu before, but the token was fake, which Chen Qing of Xuanzhou can testify. Chen An stretched out his hand to comfort the little girl, and stealthily took out the hidden dagger from her waist.

"Hehe, interesting, you actually used a dead man to testify to Lao Tzu!" Yin Cheng grinned and said with a cruel smile. "Don't think that Lao Tzu doesn't know that you wanted to use a fake token to fool Chen Qing, who would think that after Chen Qing happened to find out, you would simply kill him! Lao Tzu will tell you now, if you don't tell the whereabouts of the token, neither of you two will want to get out of here today!"

"It seems that there is nothing to say between us. Chen An said in a calm tone. "Do you know how to shrink the ground into inches?"

"I know what the hell your mother is!"

As soon as Yin Chenggang shouted out this scolding, Chen An in front of him suddenly disappeared strangely.

"Do you know what you did wrong?"

At this time, a demon-like whisper sounded in Yin Cheng's ears, and a cold chill appeared in his neck.

Chen An appeared behind Yin Cheng at some point, and at the same time, the blade of the dagger in his hand drew a blood line on Yin Cheng's neck.

"You think death is far away from you, but I'm so close to you. ”
