There are two roads from Haizhou back to Chang'an, one is the official road, passing through Xuzhou, Songzhou, Zhengzhou, Luozhou, Yongzhou into Chang'an, the terrain is complex along the way, and there are many cities.

If it was before, Qin Huaidao would definitely choose the official road, at least he could supply at any time along the way, and he could find a city to rest for a night when he was tired, but the situation in front of him was complicated, and the Li clan of Zhaojun would definitely arrange someone to assassinate him when he learned that he was coming, and the official road was not safe, and there was only the waterway left.

A distance to the west of Haizhou is the Tongji Canal, along the north to Luozhou, take the Yellow River for a distance can turn into the Guangtong Canal into Chang'an, people are on the boat, the boat is in the river, there is no need to worry about close assassination, the river waters are open, if someone assassinates can also be found in advance.

After some trade-offs, Qin Huaidao chose to take the waterway, first found an inn to live in, purchased items for everyone to make it easy, and went to the Tongji Canal the next day to pack a big boat to go, and did not dock unless necessary along the way, and did not rest at night.

After crossing the Tongji Canal, after entering the Yellow River, the boatman did not dare to go, the Yellow River was high, and it was easy to make mistakes if he was not familiar with the terrain.

About a month.

Qin Huaidao secretly arrived outside Chang'an City, and after going ashore, he handed over the white hoof to Luo Ying, and Zhengse advised: "You should at least go back to Chashan quickly, arm the people, and wait for my information." ”

"Do you really need me to accompany you back? It's too dangerous. Luo Ying reminded anxiously.

"It's really dangerous, it's useless to have one more of you, go ahead." Qin Huaidao solemnly reminded him, left in a hurry with the team of guards, and went straight to the direction of Qinjiazhuang.

When I arrived at Qinjiazhuang, it was already dusk, and I saw the forbidden army surrounding Qinjiazhuang from afar.

"Young master, has the court done it?" A team member said angrily that there are everyone's families in the village, and if you really want to do it, the consequences are unimaginable.

Qin Huaidao didn't answer, and observed carefully.

Soon, Qin Huaidao found that the forbidden army only blocked in the outhouse, checked the people who came in and out, and did not go in, this situation made Qin Huaidao a little surprised, Li Er, what is the trouble? Whispered, "Follow me!" ”

The guards hurriedly followed, heading to the side.

An hour or so, the group came to a mountain villa.

"No one is allowed to trespass on private territory." Someone shouted loudly, and then rushed out a group of people, all wearing strong suits, holding weapons, and their eyes were cold.

Soon, a woman rushed out, holding a sword, and recognized it as Qin Huaidao at a glance, startled, and immediately ecstatic, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "Subordinates see the young master." ”

"Shen Mei, it's good that you're here, find an incisive place." Qin Huaidao admonished.

This villa is the intelligence headquarters, the gathering place of Shen Mei and other killers.

"The young master comes with me, first-level alert." Shen Mei said and looked at the people around her.

Everyone nodded, scattered, and soon disappeared into the darkness.

Qin Huaidao nodded with satisfaction, worthy of being a killer and having some skills, followed Shen Mei into the villa, walked through a wind and rain corridor to the middle courtyard, and entered a reception room.

"Young master, please take a seat, you can come back." Shen Mei said excitedly, let it go and find the backbone.

"Tell me about what's going on." Qin Huaidao sat down at the top and asked bluntly.

Shen Mei didn't dare to be careless, and hurriedly said: "Young master, two months ago, Mrs. He left the villa to go to Chang'an, and was ambushed by five hundred Turkic cavalry halfway, and all the thirty members of the accompanying team were killed, killing more than two hundred Turkic cavalry. ”

"What, He'er was tied up, and the Turkic cavalry did it?" Qin Huaidao's face turned cold, his eyes swelled with anger, and he asked: "How can the Turkic cavalry arrive in Chang'an, not to mention that there are still as many as five hundred, such as fraud, but there are clues." ”

"Back to the young master, not a single Turkic cavalry is alive, I can't be sure, my subordinates should die, please punish the young master." Shen Mei said ashamedly.

Qin Huaidao was furious, but he also knew that he was not angry, he took a deep breath to suppress his anger, waved his hand and said: "It's really difficult to do without a living mouth, I don't blame you, what else?" ”

"Commander Xue led the army to chase and kill, the Turkic cavalry divided the troops, took advantage of the favorable terrain to ambush, the Huzhuang team lost more than 20 people, the Turkic cavalry was wounded and committed suicide decisively, the strength is not bad, it should be a Turkic elite soldier, a large number of black-clothed people emerged in an ambush, it is found that it is not Turkic, fortunately, Lord Cheng Chubi brought people to arrive, otherwise it would be troublesome."

"What's going on with Cheng Chubi?" Qin Huaidao asked.

Shen Mei hurriedly replied: "According to investigation, Lord Cheng Chubi rushed to arrest the Turkic cavalry on the order of Lu Guogong, and was stopped by a verbal edict when he went out of the city. ”

"Oracle?" Qin Huaidao's shadow flashed in his mind, and he asked, "The Turkic cavalry is related to Li Er?" Are you sure? What else was found

Is it? ”

"The Turkic cavalry should have nothing to do with the saint, this kind of thing is too big, once exposed, the consequences are immeasurable, the saint has no reason to do this, it should be someone else, the saint took the opportunity to make trouble, not long after the incident, the saint summoned Lu Guogong, and then it was rumored that Lu Guogong dismissed his post and reflected at home, the reason was that the Turkic cavalry soldiers were in Chang'an and the forbidden military did not know about it first, and the southern Yasi of the forbidden army was led by the king of Jin."

"What about the Northern Yasi of the Forbidden Army?" Qin Huaidao hurriedly asked.

"Three days after the incident, Eguo Gong was also dismissed from his post and reflected at home, for the same reason as Lu Guogong was demoted, the forbidden army guarded Chang'an without knowing it, and no one picked out the problem of dismissing the two for this reason, but the subordinates always felt that there was a conspiracy in this, no one responded, and it was impossible for the Turkic five hundred cavalry to arrive in Chang'an."

Of course, Qin Huaidao understood the truth, and the Zhaojun Li clan flashed in his mind, but there was no evidence, so he asked, "What's going on with Qinjiazhuang being besieged?" ”

"The court released a message to the outside world, saying that the young master was suspected of killing the people of Haizhou, and when the government soldiers arrived, the young master attacked the government soldiers, killed the Yizhou Zhichong Mansion Lieutenant and Haizhou Zhichong Prefecture Captain, and ordered the forbidden army to arrest it, and the forbidden army entered the village to search unsuccessfully, so the entire Qinjiazhuang was surrounded. Shen Mei couldn't help but ask curiously.

"It's not important." Qin Huaidao waved his hand, the anger in his heart couldn't be suppressed, and he actually framed himself to kill the people of Haizhou, and he couldn't help but think of those tragic deaths in the valley in his mind.

At this time, a team member next to him said angrily: "Young master, it must be the Li clan of Zhao County who sent people to kill those people in the valley, instructed the government soldiers to attack us, and then poured dirty water on us, this is a frame, it is a slander, I took my brothers to infiltrate Chang'an and kill that bastard." ”

"Don't worry, I only have ideas." Qin Huaidao said coldly, it is impossible not to take revenge for this revenge, but he can't be impulsive, he looked at Shen Mei and asked, "What is the situation in Zhuang Shang now?" ”

"A few princes are in charge, but there is no big mess, Mrs. presides over the overall situation, ordered me to search for news from all sides, today I went to Chang'an City to find that the forbidden army will be in Chang'an City barbecue bar and department store seizure, not allowed to open, is preparing to fly the pigeon to transmit the news back to Qinjiazhuang The young master is here."

"It's just sealed, not copied?" Qin Huaidao asked, a suspicious fox flashed in his heart.

Shen Mei shook her head and said: "The subordinates are also strange, they are just sealed, they are not allowed to open, the things inside are not moved, and the forbidden army is also sent to guard them, the subordinates are puzzled, could it be that they are forcing the young master to appear?" By the way, there are two major events, one is that the salt law was introduced, and the salt in the world was collected by the imperial court, and it was not allowed to be sold privately, and our snowflake salt was not allowed to be sold again; Second, the imperial court issued a decree that only one caravan was allowed in any one house. ”

"The salt method has been introduced?" Qin Huaidao was taken aback, this is the scourge of the Tang Dynasty, it is impossible for Li Er not to know, or to launch it, it can be seen that Fang Xuanling and others have no influence in the court, Li Er is very resolute and hateful in cleaning up his thoughts.

"Yes, Mrs. He came out of the village because of these two things." Shen Mei added.

"What...... What the hell is going on? Qin Huaidao's eyes flickered.

Shen Mei hurriedly explained: "After the imperial court issued two decrees, the two negotiated countermeasures, Mrs. He considered that there was a request from the country, and there could be no rules, and the young master was not there, so she personally went over to discuss in detail to show respect, but I didn't expect that there would be an ambush." ”

"Tell me about it."

ps: I wish you all a happy Mid-Autumn Festival!
