Chapter 174: Old and New, Afraid

Quartz, who looked embarrassed, stood on the bow of the boat and watched slowly hanging down from the cliff, his nervous mood finally improved, and Yan Lan also regained his clothes and looked at the billowing smoke thoughtfully.

"Yingshuai, this is strange, it is not the three of us who did it, let alone the three of Jiangbei, so it will only be them who can have such a big deal." Yan Lan said with sharp eyes.

"Who is it?" Quartz wondered.

"Zhu Yan!" Zhu Yan's matter is confidential, even Su Qing is also tight-lipped at this time, the time to tell Quartz is just right, with Quartz's character, he will definitely not be willing to suffer this secret loss, if he can pull Ning and Chu better.

"Jianghu organization, self-righteous rangers!" Quartz clearly developed a strong hostility and resentment towards these thieves.

Yan Lan nodded and said: "That's right, it's them, they want to use the power of the rivers and lakes to shake the court, and their wishful thinking is too good, but we can't underestimate them after this incident." ”

"Isn't Ling Jun a little alarmist, a Jianghu sect still wants to influence the imperial court?" Quartz didn't quite agree with Yan Lan.

"O my handsome! They have already begun to infiltrate the court, otherwise how do you think the thieves on our little lonely mountain came up, someone must have secretly cooperated with them. Yanlan felt that it was still necessary to explain the terrible "Zhu Yan", otherwise Quartz would suffer again, and he was not a person who liked to watch jokes.

Quartz frowned and said, "What do you mean that Ling Jun also has someone arranged by our side or His Majesty's side?" ”

"Your Majesty has already dispatched the people from the Ming Jian Division and the White Clothes Temple to deal with this matter, and the person in charge is Your Majesty's uncle, Gu Zhongtang." Yan Lan simply told it all.

"Since Your Majesty has not announced it, it seems that this matter is indeed extraordinary, my goal is too big, but this fire must be investigated, who in the army can?" Quartz had a rare flash of inspiration and suddenly became smart.

Just as the two of them were thinking, a sentence broke the contemplation.

"Yan Lingjun, Yingshuai, Xue Xiang has woken up, let you go over." Huo Youji didn't know when he was standing behind the two of them.

The two were not surprised, but looked at each other, as if they had reached some kind of agreement, only to hear Quartz smile and say: "Ling Jun, look, our executor has arrived!" ”

Yan Lan looked Huo Youjian up and down, and said in his heart: "No wonder Your Majesty can trust him so much, no wonder he can make the dignified county lord worry about the kid, although a talent is just an appearance, it is enough to attract a girl to Huaichun." ”

Thinking of this kid's original "leader" team, I have to say that His Majesty's "cronyism" is right.

"Huo Hou, Yingshuai means to give you some important tasks, you talk first, I'll go to see Xue Xiang first, the boss has suffered this time." Yan Lan is very discerning, leaving space for the two military seniors to communicate, which is conducive to passing on the help, "passing on the band" is a new word recently mentioned by His Majesty, and this moment is a good opportunity to realize.

After seeing Yan Lan enter the cabin, Quartz came to the side of the ship and whispered their secret plan to Huo Youjian in a handsome manner.

Just after the Great Xuan Dynasty escaped, Xu Yu immediately got the news, some excited and a little unwilling, excited that no one is in big trouble, this bad debt will not be recorded on Daning's head, unwilling is that these key people were able to escape again, for Daning, these people are hidden dangers, especially Quartz and Murong Changfeng.

"Marquis Yu, it's time for us to go, there's a message from Jinling, Your Majesty is furious, and summons us to return to Beijing immediately." Duanmu Yang said worriedly.

"The general is not leaving?" Xu Yu glanced at Yu Qingwu and was not in the team, not even his personal guards.

"I'm afraid the general won't be able to leave, Zhong Qian's death, the war at Poyang Lake is inevitable, the Zhong clan's sailors are now gathering here, and the king of Dongyang County is also about to arrive, and the general has always been to pick him up." Duanmuyang said helplessly.

A good tripartite meeting, suddenly ended hastily in such a form, the matter of seeking peace in Jiangnan is considered bankrupt, and now Daxuan and Daning are facing pressure from the north and cannot easily increase troops, but Da Chu is the only one in Jiangnan, if Chu and Xuan reach an agreement, then it must be Daning who suffers, especially the arrival of Xiao Ze can verify that the war is imminent.

"Straight sissy thief! Who the hell is messing around?! Xu Yu felt powerless, he was born as a spy, and he was actually plucked under his nose, which was simply an insult, he couldn't wait to know who the people behind the scenes were, and before the people settled down, Xu Yu summoned the brocade unicorns in nearby states and counties, and vowed to find out the people, and there was a kind of vow that he would never give up and never return.

Murong Changfeng, who was also a spy, was so cold that the surrounding environment was about to freeze up, and the Luantai envoy who knelt down in a circle, everyone was terrified, the last time Murong Changfeng was so angry was when he killed Chong's family.

The dead silence atmosphere lasted for nearly a stick of incense, and Murong Changfeng finally spoke, "Don't you have anything to say to me?" His voice was hoarse with a thick murderous aura.

There was silence again, and just as Murong Changfeng was about to get up, a trembling voice finally responded.

"My lord, my subordinates found three corpses of our Chu army at the foot of Xiaogu Mountain, and the three of them were a patrol group at the same intersection."

Murong Changfeng looked in the direction of the voice, and saw that it was a small flag, originally he couldn't see himself at his level, if it wasn't for Zhong Qian's murder, Murong Changfeng wouldn't have seen them.

"What's your name? Which division does it belong to? Murong Changfeng asked coldly.

The man was so frightened that he buried his head deeper, and then a muffled voice came, "Subordinate Ren Xian, Jiang Yousi Jiujiang Zhenwei." ”

After hearing this, Murong Changfeng thought for a while, and suddenly said: "You do this matter, you do it, and now you are Luantai in black." ”

Although the voice was not heavy, it was confirmed that it scared all the people kneeling on the ground, there are seven categories of Luantai envoys, purple clothes are respected, only Murong Changfeng is qualified to wear them, followed by red, black, white, blue, green and variegated, Luantai black's level is the same level as the directors of each department, just because of a sentence from green clothes directly to black, this span is the first time since the establishment of Luantai.

Just before everyone could react, Murong Changfeng continued: "From tomorrow, Murong Changgong will take over the investigation of Zhong Qian's assassination, except for Ren Xian, no one is allowed to interfere, tell the government garrisons in various places, who dares to interfere I will personally invite him to tea!" ”

Murong Changgong, Murong Changfeng's cousin, is even more insidious and ruthless than Murong Changfeng, half of the blood on Luantai's hands comes from his hands, but this person is very strange, Zhong Roulan has wanted him to take over Luantai many times, so that Murong Changfeng can be liberated, but he is not willing to live or die, so far he has not accepted any position except for receiving a red dress, and that red dress is the only two in the entire Luantai.

After everyone received the order, Murong Changfeng let them go, after all, the war in Poyang Lake was about to start, and Xu Yu was still not far away, so they couldn't be taken lightly.

Regarding Zhong Qian's assassination, Zhong Roulan's reaction was too calm, and she just replied: "Find him and let him die." ”。

Six words seem to outsiders that Zhong Roulan doesn't have too deep feelings for Zhong Qian, but for Murong Changfeng and Song Jian, they all know that Zhong Roulan is already angry to the extreme, this can even be said to be a nirvana, there is no room for negotiation.

The more Murong Changfeng thought about it, the more he couldn't sit still, he got up and walked to Song Jian's room, Song Jian was writing on the desk, and when he saw Murong Changfeng coming, he didn't look up, and said: "Sit down, Yuzhang's will is to let Zhong Fan preside over the military affairs of Poyang Lake, and the rest is your business, I just ask." ”

"Song Xiang, I'm not here for this, I want to talk to you about the assassination."

Song Jian slowly raised his head and looked at Murong Changfeng a little strangely, he was a little reluctant to believe that this spy leader would talk to him about professional matters.

"Murong please sit down, I've been thinking about things on Xiaogu Mountain these days, it's too weird, the people of the two major spies are here, no, it should be said that the three major spies except Su Qing have all arrived, and the person who can work under your nose is not a good person, but a very smart and confident person." Song Jian said his feelings, not to laugh at the spy, but to admire the thief, but also to be afraid.

"What Song Xiang said is reasonable, I'm really a little scared, I communicated with Xu Yu, and he also thinks that this matter is done by a force other than the six families in the Central Plains." Murong Changfeng said a little weakly, and it could be seen that he really had no clue.

"I think this is a force hidden in the rivers and lakes, they are against all the people in power, I have a feeling that their hands have been stretched out, and they have even entered the court." Song Jian analyzed.

Murong Changfeng immediately sat up straight after hearing this, he was sure that Song Jian didn't know about the corpse in the north of Xiaogu Mountain, but he could smell the smell of conspiracy, but he still came from the court, he was not because he was just an old man who started a family, but because he had real skills.

"Song Xiang, my people found the body of one of our patrol teams on the back of Xiaogu Mountain, it should be because of this incident that these people were able to enter Xiao Gu Mountain smoothly, but I can't understand how so many of them are hiding in Xiao Gu Mountain." Murong Changfeng said respectfully, this is from the heart.

Song Jian pondered for a while and said: "There is an internal response on Xiaogu Mountain, and the position is not low, and it is even said that it is deeply trusted, but I don't know which of our three parties belongs to this trust." ”

"You mean this group is already deep in us? If this is the case, the scope of the investigation will be much smaller, except for the nine of us, the rest of the people who can be trusted by us except for the personal servants around us are the generals of the guards, and the rest of the people can't get our peace of mind, so the total is only a hundred, and there are about thirty people on our side, except for those who died in the Xiaogushan incident, there are less than twenty people on our side. Murong Changfeng's anxiety finally opened up a little.

Song Jian shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Murong, this is even more difficult, it's easy to check if you don't die, as long as there are dead and injured, it's very troublesome, do you know if he is really dead or fake?" ”

entered a dead end again, and the confidence that Murong Changfeng had just mentioned was suddenly gone, and it sank even more.

Seeing that Murong Changfeng was uncomfortable, Song Jian comforted: "Murong, in fact, this is also a good thing, at least we know where the direction is, since they can have such means, they will definitely not let us easily catch the horse's feet, take your time, you have an opponent." ”

Murong laughed miserably, sighed and said, "Song Xiang, I think such an opponent may not only be worrying about myself, what do you say?" ”

"No matter how many people are troubled, but at least everyone's purpose is the same, you can ask Jiangbei Sanquan to see if they have encountered this kind of affairs, if they also have, then the huge size of this organization needs six families to work together, a rare opportunity to cooperate, isn't it? ”
