Late at night, someone climbed over the wall in the hazy moonlight, silently.

A man in black came from the shadows, leading two majestic horses.

Without saying a word, the man in black who came out of the wall jumped on horseback, and the two avoided the patrol soldiers and quickly disappeared at the end of the street.

"Lord Wang, do you have any clues?" Back at the inn, making sure that he didn't alarm others, Xiao Yan asked softly.

Ning Ze took off his masked towel and shook his head: "Several families in the city related to the Iron Wing Sect went to see it, but they found nothing. ”

"Could it be that you are thinking too much?" Xiao Yan asked, "These rich squires may be simply well-intentioned and donate some money to accumulate merit. ”

"Maybe!" Ning Ze said, "I've worked hard for you tonight, hurry back to your room to rest." ”

"Wow!" Xiao Yan gave a military salute and turned to leave.

After she left, Ning Ze closed the door and sat at the table by candlelight to think.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration: "Maybe the direction is really wrong?" At that time, Yan Congyun said that the distance of the Iron Wing True Monarch was about ten days and half a month. If you use this as a clue to investigate, can you find a wealthy family that just meets the requirements? Although this may not be the case, it is also possible that the Iron Wing True Monarch is in another place, which is better than looking for it randomly. In order to find out the truth as soon as possible and prevent the Iron Wing Sect from causing chaos, it is worth a try!"

In the early hours of the next morning, around four o'clock.

Ning Ze got up early, woke up Xiao Yan, and handed her a superstitious letter: "You go to the county magistrate's office as a secret envoy and hand over this letter by hand." Try to avoid eyes and ears, the less people know about the appointment. ”

"Lord Wang, do you mean sneaking in?" Xiao Yan is still quite smart, "In case the county order is frightened and attracts officers and soldiers ......"

"Just tell him that you are a secret envoy of the imperial court, this is a top-secret official document, and I believe that the county order will also be cautious. ”

"But Lord Wang, now that there is a telegram in the country, and a secret envoy has a secret letter, will the county order be bad because of suspicion?"

"It's up to you!" Ning Ze smiled, "If you can't even do this little thing, how can Mrs. Mi regard you as a confidant?"

Xiao Yan immediately nodded: "The last general will take the order!"

Put away the secret letter, put on the gauze hat, and leave the inn quickly while it was dark.

Coming out of the inn, there were already many people busy on the street, and there were many people who got up early and greedy for darkness.

Xiao Yan quietly avoided it, rode a war horse and galloped all the way, and soon found the county magistrate's office.

Without letting the government soldiers see it, he went around to a remote corner in the rear and used a grappling hook to climb over the wall and enter the courtyard.

The rest place of the government office is easy to find, and the place where the prefectural order lives is the most obvious.

At this moment, there are also some soldiers guarding the official office, most of them are drowsy because they are too tired from night duty, and some even lean directly against the wall and bow their heads and close their eyes.

Xiao Yan avoided them, climbed over the wall and came to the county magistrate's room with flexible skills and practical tools, first secretly observed from the window, found the bedroom with the county magistrate's mansion, determined that the target was resting, pried open the window and got in.

These are not generals' battlefield fighting skills, but assassin methods. Since Ning Ze subdued the assassins and set up a secret agency, Xiao Yan, as a close confidant of Mrs. Mi, has also learned some skills in it.

Otherwise, Ning Ze would not have taken her to investigate together, and even explained this matter to her with confidence.

The prefectural magistrate and the prefectural magistrate's wife were sleeping soundly in their beds, not realizing that there was an extra person in the house.

Xiao Yan quietly came to the bedside, gently took out the fire fold, and lit the candlestick.

A faint candlelight appeared, illuminating the bed.

The prefectural couple did not wake up and slept soundly.

Xiao Yan took out the secret letter and gently shook the county order.

The county magistrate, who woke up in a daze, saw the whole body in night clothes, covering his face like an assassin's face, and was about to shout in fright.

Xiao Yan reacted quickly, directly pulled up the cup to cover his mouth, and quickly said: "I am the secret envoy of the King of Danyang, and I am ordered to deliver the secret official document. Keep this quiet!"

The county commander was stunned when he heard this, and said in his heart that I was just a small county commander, and the king of Danyang was a high-ranking figure in Huaguo, how could he send a secret envoy to come and send me a secret letter? It felt quite strange and wrong!

Besides, how could an emissary sneak into my bedroom like an assassin and deliver a message in this way?

Not to mention that King Danyang invented the telegraph machine, and it was so convenient to transmit information that it needed to be done in this way?

secretly believed that the other party was fake, but for security reasons, he could only cooperate: "It turned out to be a secret envoy, dare to ask where the secret letter is?"

He was just looking for an opportunity to ensure the safety of himself and his wife, and to ask for help from the soldiers patrolling outside at any time.

But he didn't expect Xiao Yan to really hand over an envelope and signal the county order to open it.

The county magistrate was suspicious and had to open the envelope and take out the letter inside.

Glancing closer to the candlelight, his eyes widened with an expression of disbelief.

It turned out that there was a clay mark in the letter, which looked very familiar, similar to the common Danyang King seal on official documents.

Is it true?

The county commander turned his head to look at the lady who was still asleep and had not woken up, and tried to lower his voice as much as possible: "Can the secret envoy go to the study for a while?"

"Where's the study?" asked Xiao Yan.

"Go out and follow the hallway, to the third room on the left. ”

"Okay!" Xiao Yan said softly, "Don't alarm others, if you break the prince's big thing, you will not be to blame!"

The moment he saw the imprint, whether it was true or not, the county order didn't dare to mess around.

Xiao Yan quickly went out of the window and soon arrived at the study.

Without alarming the lady, the prefectural order quickly got up, put on official clothes, and left the bedroom with candles.

When he came to the study, he saw that Xiao Yan was really waiting here, and said in his heart that the other party was probably really a secret envoy, not an assassin! Sounds like a woman, who doesn't shy away from breaking into the bedroom at night?

In other words, why did the high-ranking King of Danyang send a secret envoy to deliver a secret letter to himself?

Don't...... Is it because of the Iron Wing Cult?

He wasn't a fool either, King Danyang, who had nothing to do with him at all, suddenly did this, and the only possibility was the Iron Wing Sect that had recently emerged rapidly and had an ever-expanding influence!

Placing the candle on the table, the prefectural commander whispered, "Please wait by the secret envoy!"

After speaking, he carefully searched from a large number of official documents, and quickly found out the old documents of Ning Ze's policies in the past, and compared Wang Yin.

When he found that the imprints were exactly the same, his hands trembled with excitement, and with an unimaginable mood, he carefully read them word by word.

The content of the secret letter is that Ning Ze lists all the rich squires who have funded the Iron Wing Sect and arranged personnel in the Iron Wing Sect, excluding some of the people in the county who have personally investigated, and asking the county order to draw an accurate map, listing the locations of other rich squires, and listing the steps one by one in various ways such as walking and horseback riding.

The county magistrate looked dazed after reading the secret letter, and didn't know what the point of doing this was.

raised his head and asked Xiao Yan with his eyes, but the latter didn't understand the meaning of the county order, and even if he knew, he couldn't answer. Ning Ze didn't tell her why.

I can't get an answer from Xiao Yan, the county order is helpless, since it is a secret order of the prince, it has to be completed if it is not in the situation. Maybe you will be lucky to be appreciated by the prince and have a chance to be promoted.

As a local, and a county, this little problem can't bother him at all. It's just that it's going to be marked out in detail, and it still takes time. said to Xiao Yan at the moment: "What the prince explained, the lower officials will definitely do their best to complete it." But it takes a day, I don't know ......."

"Tomorrow at this time, I'll come back again!" Xiao Yan said.

"No, no, no!" the county magistrate said busily, "The secret envoy only needs to give an address, and the subordinate will definitely deliver the reply letter, and no one will find out! It's just a little puzzled, why don't you use a telegram? Could it be that the prince suspects that the county officials have internal ghosts?"

"Don't guess the intentions of the prince!"

"Yes, yes!" Xia Guan was just curious. ”

"You just have to remember that it is best to keep this matter from even your wife, and not to be known to a third person. ”

"The subordinate obeys......! Where should the subordinate be sent when he is ready?"

"Let me think about it......" Xiao Yan lowered her head and thought, in fact, she was not familiar with this side. You can't let the county order send a reply to the inn, what if the prince and himself are exposed?

Seeing that she thought for a long time, the county commander said: "It's better to be like this, there is an abandoned Shuibo Temple in Dongcheng, because there has been a murder, even beggars don't go." It's the most remote and safest. Before nightfall, the lower officials will put the results of the investigation on the first beam on the left side of the Shuibo Temple!"

"Okay!" Xiao Yan immediately said, "Remember not to be detected by a third person!"

"Don't worry, the secret envoy knows! By the way, could it be that the prince is coming to Duzhao County......" The county commander suddenly had a flash of inspiration and asked excitedly.

At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps outside, coming to the study, accompanied by the voice of a woman shouting the name of the county order.

"It seems that Mrs. Zun has woken up!" Xiao Yan quickly ran to the window, "Go first, remember not to leak secrets!"

After saying that, he jumped out of the window and ran quickly to the courtyard wall behind.

Leaving the official office, the little ** got on the war horse and quickly turned back.

Avoid patrolling soldiers and civilians as much as possible along the way, and soon return to the inn.

After arriving, he first went to Ning Ze's room to report: "The last general has delivered the secret letter and has not alarmed others. The county order replied that the information would be delivered to the Dongcheng Shuibo Temple before nightfall!"

"Well, well done!" Ning Ze smiled and nodded, "Today you just relax, take a walk around, and after nightfall, the Lone Club will go to the Shuibo Temple in person." ”

"How can that be done?" Xiao Yan said busily, "I heard from the county order that there was a murder in the Shuibo Temple, which is very dangerous." The prince can't take risks, so let's go!"

"Adventure?" Ning Ze said with a smile, "With Lone's strength, don't say that the murder scene is even the Demon Cave! Do you not believe in Lone's martial arts, or do you not believe in Lone's spells?"

"Don't dare!" Xiao Yan hurriedly replied, "It's just...... After all, the prince has a daughter's body......"

"Okay, I know that you are under the orders of your wife to protect Lone, so I am worried. Since his debut, he has been crisscrossing the battlefield and fighting in the east and west, which is called danger. Don't worry about it, there is some money here, relax and walk around, there are still many interesting places in Duzhao County. ”

"But the prince ......"

"During the tour, please inquire about the Iron Wing Sect!" Ning Ze said with a smile.

"Wow!" As soon as he heard that there was a task, Xiao Yan responded without hesitation.
