Yeongbu Kansai District.

In the yamen of the 3,000th household of Jinyiwei, Wang Jian, the chief banner, hurriedly walked out.

After Xiao Gui was forcibly arrested by the Spirit Department on suspicion of smuggling spiritual objects three days ago, he has been walking around for the past few days, and under the opening of a large number of spiritual yuan, he has indeed connected many big shots.

It's just that after these big people greeted the Spiritual Affairs Department, the commander of the Spiritual Affairs Department put down their words strongly, and it was useless for anyone to come before the smuggling of spiritual objects was revealed.

With such a result, Wang Jian knew that the relationship between Lingwuguan and Lingwuguan would not be useful.

The matter has come to this, and he does not dare to delay the immediate and Han. Li Erye of the Guogong Mansion got in touch.

It's just that Second Master Li's words made him feel a little cold, and he actually asked him to surrender and take on all the things alone.

Wang Jian, who was unwilling, thought of General Xiao in the garrison, and planned to go to him desperately to save Xiao Gui.

As soon as he stepped out of the gate of the Jinyi Guard, he saw a spiritual guard rushing out of the street with more than a dozen auxiliary guards surrounding him.

"Wang Jian?"

The Lingwei of the leader looked at him solemnly and asked.

"You... You are? ”

At this moment, Wang Jian's heart sank, and he replied very uneasily.

Seeing that it was the main Lingwei Deng Zhen, he nodded, and waved his hand to signal his subordinates to come forward and arrest him.

Seeing this situation, the guards of the Jinyi Guard Yamen immediately drew their swords and stepped up one after another.

"Huh? This person was involved in a major assassination case, and Ben Wei was ordered to come and arrest him. Deng Zhen's face became a little dark, and he shouted angrily: "What do you Jinyiwei want to do? Blatantly provoking the law enforcement of the Spiritual Department? ”

With Deng Zhen's roar, all the auxiliary guards held spirit knives and stared coldly at the few brocade guards surrounding Wang Jian, as long as Deng Zhen gave an order, they would chop melons and vegetables and cut all the brocade guards on the opposite side.

The movement at the entrance of the yamen alarmed a deputy Qianhu, and he quickly came from inside with dozens of brocade guards.

Seeing that the two parties were facing each other with knives, he suddenly felt bad in his heart, no matter what the outcome of the hedging of the two powerful yamen, he, the deputy Qianhu on duty, would definitely be held accountable.

"Stop! Stop it! ”

Deputy Qianhu pushed away the brocade guard who was blocking the front and shouted loudly.

After seeing the person on the other side, he said with a smile on his face: "Deng Lingwei, what are you doing here?" It's all for His Majesty, but don't wash the Dragon King Temple. ”

Stretch out your hand and don't hit the smiling person, even if Deng Zhen stabs his head again, he won't go on a rampage.

He raised his hand and clenched his fist and said, "Hu Qianhu, this is the Spiritual Department, and I am just doing business." ”

As the son-in-law of the current dynasty, he naturally knows that this Hu Qianhu also has some background, as long as he doesn't get in the way and gives some face.

Hu Qianhu is the brother of the popular noble Hu Weiyong, and he took the article and looked at it carefully.

After reading the full text and confirming that the letter of the Spiritual Department was correct, he said without hesitation: "Since it is just a routine inquiry, then I hope Deng Lingwei will handle it impartially." ”

Deng Zhen heard his words a little harshly, what's the matter? Is this a point to him? Even if you don't follow the rules in doing things, do you still have to look at your face to do things?

At this moment, Deng Zhen's attitude towards him suddenly changed greatly, and he said pointedly: "Hu Qianhu, our Spirit Department still disdains to do the matter of chasing wind and shadows. ”

Hu Qianhu, who was choked by these words, had a pig's liver on his face, he didn't expect this kid to blow up the thorns, and he couldn't say half a word for a while.

Too lazy to care about him, Deng Zhen waved his hand to tie up Wang Jian, and quickly evacuated the scene without saying hello.

Hu Qianhu, who witnessed all this, trembled, when did he suffer this anger when he was also a noble child?

——————

The junction of Lingwu Pass and Western Xinjiang.

Six fast horses came galloping from afar, stopping outside a small town not far from the border.

The leader was a young man in a white robe, who frowned and stared at the ground.

After a while he jumped off his horse and looked at the town in front of him in deep thought.

The other five also dismounted, and after landing on the ground, they quickly dispersed, each carefully searching the side of the road.

"Brother Yu, fresh horse manure was found here, and it seems that it was left today." A soldier didn't like it dirty, pinched the horse manure and sniffed it.

Ye Yu looked at the soldier and got the other party's affirmation again, and couldn't help but show a hint of joy.

As early as the day before yesterday, he took someone to the hideout of the men in black who attacked him that night, and after a fight, he captured a man in black, only to let the leader of the men in black escape unexpectedly.

After handing over the captured man in black to Deng Zhen, he led people to chase him out of the customs overnight.

After two days and two nights of chasing, Ye Yu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

If you want to get out of Xiao Gui behind the man in black, only by catching this leader can you complete the chain of evidence.

"Tie the horses into the woods, and we'll hike into town." He pointed to the forest next to him and commanded.

The five soldiers nodded and pulled their horses into the woods, and after a while they walked together towards the entrance of the town.

The town in front of me is not so much a settlement area as it is a town, and the fish and dragons in the town are mixed, not only the Ming people but also many people from the western Xinjiang.

Ye Yu touched the wound that was a little cracked due to the galloping, and solemnly admonished: "Brothers, don't reveal your identity when you enter the real town, this kind of small border land has no good impression of the imperial court." ”

"Brother Yu, don't worry, we know."

Seeing that they all understood their intentions, Ye Yu did not delay any longer, and blended into the crowd and entered the town.

After successfully entering the town, Ye Yu asked someone about the inn, and they were taken to the only inn in the town after paying a spirit yuan.

"Oops! Guest, are you eating or staying in a hotel? The inn boy was sharp-eyed and asked Ye Yu with a smile.

Ye Yu looked at the inn a little, and saw that there were still a lot of people bustling inside, so he immediately asked curiously: "Little brother, is your inn's business so good?" ”

"Hehe, they are all regular customers who come and go back to the two places, and there is only one inn in this Gulfstream town, so there is naturally some business." Xiao Er explained with a smile.

"Also, it would be strange if this unique business was not good." Hearing this, Ye Yu smiled undeniably, and then took out a few spirit yuan and said boldly: "Serve us a table of good wine and food, and prepare three guest rooms." ”

Seeing the white shining Lingyuan, the shopkeeper's mouth was almost to the root of his ears.

He shouted at the back kitchen, looked at Ye Yu with a smile and asked, "How many days does the guest officer need to stay?" We have a discount for three consecutive days at the inn. ”

"Stay for a day first, it depends on the weather tomorrow, if the weather is bad, I'm afraid I will have to live for a day." Ye Yu shook his head and was not interested in the discount that Xiao Er said.

Xiao Er is also a clever person, and when he saw that Ye Yu was unmoved, he didn't forcibly recommend it.

Still smiling, he waved his hand in a gesture of invitation to guide them to their seats.

Following Xiao Er's guidance, Ye Yu and the others sat down at a wine table by the window.

Seeing that the time was ripe, he casually asked, "Little Er, do you have people coming to stay in the hotel every day?" ”

"Hey, hey! What does the guest officer want to ask? ”

"Huh! Since you're smart, I won't hold it anymore. Ye Yu was slightly stunned, and after discovering that this kid was a wonderful person, he took out a spirit yuan and threw it to him and continued: "It's nothing, it's just that we are medicinal herb merchants, and recently I heard that the opponent also wants to enter the Western Xinjiang to buy medicinal herbs." ”

Xiao Er took Lingyuan and hurriedly stuffed it into his arms, and when he heard Ye Yu's words, he suddenly showed a clear expression and said, "There have been two groups of people from Lingwu Pass in the past two days. ”

At this point he stopped, stretched out his right hand and made a gesture of begging for money.

Ye Yu pressed the soldier who wanted to get up, took out a spirit element again, and said with a smile: "Then it depends on whether what you say below is worth this spirit element." ”

Xiao Er took Lingyuan and said excitedly: "Thank you for the reward." ”

After putting away Lingyuan, the shopkeeper glanced around and leaned over and whispered to him: "The group of people who came yesterday don't need to say much, they are just ordinary border people who beg for a living."

An hour ago, there was a man who checked into the inn in the dust, and it looked like he was in a hurry to go to the western frontier. ”

Hearing this, Ye Yu was basically sure that this person was the leader of the fleeing men in black.

It's just that he didn't understand a little bit why he got into this town? Wouldn't it be safer to run back to the West in one go?

"Oh? It seems that the opponent robbed me the day before yesterday, this medicinal herb business is really difficult to do! After Ye Yudong talked for a while, he suddenly asked casually: "Then which room does he live in?" I just went to talk to him and see if I could dissuade him from going west. ”

The shopkeeper showed an expression of believing in you, and stretched out his right hand shamelessly to Ye Yu again.

Seeing that people were so greedy, the five soldiers instantly exploded, and they suddenly got up and stared at Xiao Er with an unkind expression.

Xiao Er is not a person who has never seen the world, and said disdainfully when he saw this: "What? Want to get your hands dirty at Joy Inn? You don't inquire about who this innkeeper is? ”

Without waiting for Ye Yu to play a round game, Xiao Ertoe sneered arrogantly: "The inn opened by the spirit priest, you dare to blow up the thorns?" ”
