Episode 29: Escape from the Deep Palace (3)

Shen Jiannan raised his head, looked at the roof beams, and muttered for a long time, thinking about Concubine Wan Chen.

"Zhu Jianzhi... Shen Jiannan came back to his senses, kept muttering the name in his mouth, and sneered from time to time, as if he felt that the name was ridiculous, or he was very unfamiliar with this name, and he also had a sigh of emotion, hesitating in his heart, which made him very entangled.

Cao Jixiang was inexplicable for a while, stunned by his laughter, thinking about his mind in his heart, as if he had figured out one or two, and then changed the topic and said: "Shen Gongzi, let's do it, there is still a shortage of deputy governors in the West Factory, I don't know if you are willing to do it?" ”

"Anything, you can arrange it." Shen Jiannan said lazily, not as if he was not interested in his position.

"Okay, I'll arrange it." Cao Jixiang immediately turned out and began to prepare for his appointment.

Cao Jixiang came to his affairs hall, summoned Chen Heng, and instructed: "You go to the four gates of the city and post notices, just say that Shen Jiannan has assumed the post of deputy governor of the West Factory, so that everyone in the world will know." ”

Chen Heng received the secret order, brought a few subordinates, prepared the notice, came to the four gates of the capital respectively, began to post, the notice was posted, many people were microscopic, discussing, the whole city gate was full of people in a moment, for a time the traffic was jammed, there was a person with a hat among the masses, stretched out his hand and deliberately lowered the hat, as if he was afraid of being looked at, squeezed forward in the crowd, came to the front, looked at the notice, only stayed for a moment, and hurriedly turned around.

After this person came out, he took off his hat, and his face was revealed, it turned out to be Ma Yuntian from Xiaoshan, after seeing the notice, he was so angry and annoyed, and said to himself: "Okay, you Shen Jiannan, betrayed your brother, and really went to the palace, and what kind of deputy governor should be, it seems that you want to fight with us, and then we thought that maybe we really blamed you, but now it seems that Zhao Xiancheng's death is inseparable from you, no, these people can't let him live in the world, so as not to harm the rivers and lakes, I must kill you." ”

The notice was posted for a whole half a day, and finally finished, Chen Heng returned to the East Factory to restore his life, Cao Jixiang happily asked: "How is it, are there many people reading the notice?" ”

"It's a lot, the whole gate is blocked." Chen Heng replied with a smile.

"Do you see any suspicious people?" Cao Jixiang chi-asked.

Chen Heng carefully recalled the time when the notice was posted, but he didn't see any suspicious people, just shook his head.

Cao Jixiang hesitated for a moment and said: "It doesn't matter, everyone in the rivers and lakes has come to the capital, but there is no movement at present, and there are indispensable people in the crowd to secretly inquire about the news." ”

"Then what is Grandpa Cao going to do?" Chen Heng asked.

Cao Jixiang narrowed his eyes, seemed to have a bamboo in his heart, and said with a smile: "You go and ask Shen Jiannan to go to the West Factory to take up his post today." ”

Chen Heng didn't seem to understand, but he didn't dare to ask more, so he hurriedly answered, came to Shen Jiannan, and said according to Cao Jixiang's instructions: "Shen Gongzi, Gonggong Cao asks you to go to Xichang with me to take office." ”

"What? Going so soon? Shen Jiannan asked in surprise.

"Yes, Gonggong Cao ordered this, saying that the position of deputy governor has been vacant for a long time, and I am afraid that after a long time, the emperor will ask about it, and it will be difficult to reply." Chen Heng made up his own nonsense and said with a smile.

Shen Jiannan had no choice but to follow Chen Heng, but what made Shen Jiannan most helpless was that he had to put on the official uniform, and he felt uncomfortable when he saw the official uniform, not to mention wearing it on his body, but there was no way, the official must wear the official uniform, in order to be able to live safely, he would deal with it.

Shen Jiannan sat in a sedan chair, a group of people in front of him, the people in front of him held a high card to avoid, beat gongs and drums, blowing trumpets, very lively, followed by a group of maids, dressed fresh and beautiful, very charming, passers-by have sent envious eyes, the scene was boiling, the noise outside alarmed Shen Jiannan, he was really stuffy inside, sighed, lifted the curtains, poked his head, and looked outside, only to see that everyone outside was talking about what but couldn't hear.

In the crowd on both sides, there were a few familiar figures, but Shen Jiannan couldn't see it, these people had already seen Shen Jiannan, and seemed to be about to move, the most front in the crowd on the left was Ma Yuntian, his eyes glared at the sedan chair, and the sword in his hand shook slightly, as if he couldn't hold it anymore and was about to be unsheathed.

Looking further to the second floor opposite, there are two people sitting in front of the window, it is Yin Changhe and Zhai Yuexing among the eight horses of Yunling, these two people are drinking tea, but their eyes have never left the sedan chair below, it seems that they are also here to arrest Shen Jiannan, but the actions of these two people were seen by Ma Yuntian, and said secretly: "They are also here, so to speak, there will be people from other sects here, these people are all arresting Shen Jiannan and trying to use him to threaten the imperial court, if they are arrested, then Zhao Xiancheng's hatred I can't revenge, no, Strike first. Thinking of this, it became clear that there were not many soldiers in this line of troops, and it was too easy to deal with them.

Ma Yuntian, took out his sword, and said: "Dodge" jumped up, stepped on the heads of the crowd and flew onto the top of the sedan chair, this move shocked everyone, Yin Changhe and Zhai Yuexing upstairs were shocked, and they were amazed, they didn't know where Ma Yuntian came from, how he was so well hidden.

Ma Yuntian's hand was quick, he didn't stay for a moment, and casually inserted a sword into the sedan chair, fortunately, Shen Jiannan already felt that there was someone on it when he jumped on the sedan chair, when the sword was inserted, Shen Jiannan was already leaning on the side, this sword stabbed into the air, and Shen Jiannan said in his heart: "There are assassins." Then he dragged up the top of the sedan car with both hands, jumped up, jumped straight to the second floor, rotated for two weeks, pushed up with both hands, and Shen Jiannan dodged and fell to the ground on the other side. When I looked up, it was Ma Yuntian, who was surprised, and was about to ask, but at this moment, dozens of guards rushed out of the buildings on both sides, killing towards Ma Yuntian, Ma Yuntian had to temporarily let go of Shen Jiannan, and fought these people, the sword in his hand was extremely sharp, and everywhere he went, he fell to the ground, and in a moment, dozens of guards were reimbursed.

Ma Yuntian swung his sword back, the sword peak approached Shen Jiannan's throat, Shen Jiannan saw that the assassin was Ma Yuntian, he felt compassion, and wanted to explain the events of that day, he was stunned for a while, and he didn't mean to fight back, seeing that the sword in Ma Yuntian's hand was about to arrive in a moment, and immediately pierced his throat, and just when he was about to die, he saw a big net suddenly fall in front of Shen Jiannan, and quickly flew forward, Ma Yuntian stared at Shen Jiannan with all his attention, and didn't notice this big net, and this big net flew on Ma Yuntian's body, directly turned Ma Yuntian back, and suddenly, a big net appeared behind him, and two big nets wrapped Ma Yuntian in the center.

Ma Yuntian saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly jumped up, but at this moment, a rope flew up from below, covering Ma Yuntian's left foot, and several guards below pulled down hard, and in an instant Ma Yuntian fell down as a whole.

Ma Yuntian then swung out two swords left and right, the big net on both sides suddenly broke, and then flew upward, the previous entanglement for a long time, this will finally breathe a sigh of relief, but the anger towards Shen Jiannan is getting more and more serious, but just jumped to the waist, I saw a group of people on the top of the building cast a net again, Ma Yuntian swung out two more swords, but after these two swords were sent, there was no effect at all, the big reticulated silk did not move, it was not broken at all, it turned out that this was made of silk in the Western Regions, and ordinary swords were cut constantly.

The sword was not broken, Ma Yuntian immediately panicked, his whole body fell down, and finally smashed to the ground, and immediately a group of guards rushed out, and they put the knife on his neck.

Ma Yuntian struggled a few times, and said angrily: "Shen Jiannan, you have changed your temperament and designed to harm people, and I can't let you go as a ghost." ”

Shen Jiannan was shocked when he saw Ma Yuntian being captured, and hurriedly squeezed towards him, but before he could get to the front, he was nervously pulled aside by a group of guards and left the scene in a huddle, for fear that he would be injured by other comrades.

Shen Jiannan was helpless, before he had time to speak, he was pulled away, he couldn't break free, he was still injured, he couldn't work too hard, and these guards didn't listen to him, like crazy people.

Chen Heng squeezed in from behind everyone, looked at Ma Yuntian, smiled coldly, and said, "Xiaoshan Ma Yuntian, don't come unharmed." ”

Ma Yuntian looked angry, raised his eyebrows coldly, snorted, and did not speak.

"It's very tough, it deserves to be the second leader of Xiaoshan, and I already expected you to come, so we have already prepared, if we arrest you, Xiaoshan will be equal to a group of dragons without a leader, and then eradicate them one by one, see which of you dares to go against the court and against Shen Jiannan." Immediately waved his hand, and all his subordinates tied up Ma Yuntian and escorted him away.

Yin Changhe, who was upstairs, sighed and sighed: "Fortunately, we didn't do it, this Cao Jixiang is really insidious, and people can't guard against it." ”

"I really didn't expect that Shen Jiannan would really return to the palace, it seems that it will be difficult to do it next." Zhai Yuexing said hesitantly. The two men upstairs said a few words and disappeared upstairs.
