"I heard you talked to a young man and woman in their twenties? What did you talk about? As soon as Xi Yan came, he said straight to the point.

Old man Yang heard that a large number of mysterious troops had suddenly appeared in Sanyangba, and he was also very curious when he heard the news.

After all, Sanyangba has been silent for so many years, and it is the first time that so many people suddenly appeared!

But what he didn't expect was that as soon as this person came, he directly asked him about the two people a few days ago.

Old man Yang looked the person in front of him up and down, and his intuition told him that this person was not a good person.

"I'm sorry, I don't know what you're talking about as a twenty-year-old."

Hearing Old Man Yang's words, Xi Yan's eyes narrowed, and his murderous aura overflowed.

"You're looking for death?"

As he spoke, Xi Yan picked up Old Man Yang.

was suddenly caught, and Old Man Yang was also very scared.

"Tell me, what did he tell you?"

But the more Xi Yan is like this, the more stubborn Old Man Yang becomes.

He was now sure that the young man and woman that day must have been his benefactor, otherwise no one would have come to him.

Old man Yang thought that Xi Yan was specifically here to track down the fire in the Zhou family.

In the final analysis, this matter is to save him and his daughter, no matter how hard he suffers, he will not betray his benefactor!

Seeing that Old Man Yang refused to say, Xi Yan didn't bother to ask again, and as soon as he made a strong hand, he twisted his neck off.

"Daddy!"

Mao Mao, who was in the house, heard the movement outside, and when she came out, she saw Xi Yan just throwing down the corpse of Old Man Yang, and couldn't help but scream for a while.

Seeing that Mao Mao was about to pounce on Lao Yangtou's corpse, Xi Yan glanced at the soldiers on the side.

In an instant, the tip of the knife slashed through Maomao's neck.

She just smacked her, and the whole person fell to the ground! Lying next to Old Man Yang, his whole body kept twitching, blood kept gushing out from his neck, and when he landed, the whole person lost his breath.

Xi Yan glanced at it with disgust.

"Humph! Diao Min. ”

"My lord, what should the people of Sanyangba do?"

"Kill them all!"

"Whoa!"

On that day, the entire Sanyangba set off a bloody storm, and those ordinary people were preparing food for the day, but they didn't expect that just to hide people's eyes, their lives would be explained here!

A whole 4,000 people began to be stationed on the bloodied Sanyang Dam.

That night, Xi Yan summoned the three captains of the Heavenly Absolute Army.

"The purpose of this operation is clear, right?" Xi Yan asked.

Several people present nodded.

They are not stupid, they know from this way that Xi Yan's target is the eldest prince.

"Now the situation in Langzhong County is complicated, and the troops cannot enter on a large scale, Shanshi, you are responsible for holding the first and third legions here! Beimu, you have experience in this area, come with me to Langzhong County. ”

After speaking, Xi Yan disbanded the meeting.

The meeting dispersed, and Shanshi immediately found Xi Yan.

"My lord, did you forget to give Lord Shen the task?"

Xi Yan arranged tasks for both Shanshi and Lord Shen, but only Lord Shen was left behind.

It's not that you deliberately forget, after all, there are only four of them here now, to put it bluntly, Xi Yan wants to suppress Lord Shen's arrogance.

Lord Shen was very arrogant when he faced him before, and he didn't take him seriously at all.

Xi Yan naturally knew that some people were not convinced, but he didn't care, killing the eldest prince, these people were enough, there was not much more Lord Shen, and there was no less of him!

Seeing that Xi Yan didn't arrange himself, Lord Shen was also stubborn and ignored him at all.

Xi Yan snorted coldly: "Don't worry about him!" To deal with that big prince, it is enough to have Beimu. ”

Shan Shi and Bei Mu did not have the arrogant temper of Lord Shen, as the former leader of the Hundred Treasure Workers, Xi Yan He had never seen such arrogant subordinates.

One of his views was that since he was now the commander of the army, he should be respectful to him, and if he didn't want to listen to himself, then he should treat this person as if he didn't exist! Anyone who dares to stumble on himself will kill you on the spot!

But fortunately, Lord Shen was just dissatisfied with Xi Yan, and he didn't secretly stumble.

From this point of view, the discipline of the Heavenly Absolute Army has caught up with the ordinary army for a few streets.

Xi Yan on the side of Chen County has already begun to set off, and at this moment, Huang Zhang, who is far away in Langzhong County, has also arrived at Panyan City, the county capital of Langzhong County.

It is also strange to say that the town on the border of Langzhong County is full of homeless people and beggars, but there are few homeless people on this side of the county.

Of course, not only are there fewer homeless people, but even ordinary people are a lot less!

As soon as the group arrived in the county seat, the Taishou of Langzhong County did not go out of the city to greet them, and everything seemed to be normal.

But the more this happened, the more Huang Zhang felt that something was wrong.

The two had just walked for a while, and when they arrived at the Taishou Mansion of Langzhong County, a group of officials covered in mud arrived late.

"Xiaguan Langzhong County Taishou Qu Jing and Langzhong County officials to see His Royal Highness the Great Prince!"

As he spoke, the officials saluted Huang Zhang.

All of these officials were dressed in mud, as if they had rolled in the mud.

Seeing Qu Jing's appearance, Huang Zhang was a little dissatisfied and said: "I just arrived in the county seat, why don't you come to greet me?" ”

Qu Jing looked guilty.

"The lower official has just helped the people on the embankment of the Sichuan River, and when he heard that His Royal Highness was coming, he hurriedly came back with the official, and asked His Highness to punish him!"

Since Qu Jing said so, Huang Zhang naturally didn't know what to say.

just nodded, and said in a slightly slower tone: "Since you are doing the right thing, then I can't say anything, how is the residence of this prince arranged?" ”

"When I received the circular letter from the imperial court, it was arranged, and the lower official will show His Highness the way!"

But I saw Huang Zhang raise his hand and said: "Master Qu is so busy, don't bother you, you can go down and wash up, just find someone to take me to see." ”

"Yes!"

Saying that, Qu Jing sent someone to take Huang Zhang to the Taishou Mansion, while Qu Jing and the other officials went home to tidy up their clothes.

Seeing the appearance of Qu Jing and other officials, Hu Yier had some feelings.

"Master Qu is also a good official, he is still busy with official business at this time, you can see that his official robe is stained with mud."

Hearing Hu Yier's words, Huang Zhang had to smile.

"Childe, what are you laughing at?"

"I'm laughing at you for being naïve."

"Naive?"

"Do you really think that Qu Jing just came back from the embankment?"

"Huh? Isn't it? ”

"I can only say that you are still too tender or rather, you haven't seen the real appearance of those mud legs!"

Chen Lin on the side was also a little puzzled.

His thoughts are the same as Hu Yi'er's, he thinks that this Qu Jing is an official who does practical things, but listening to the words of the eldest prince, there seems to be something greasy here.

"A person who is really running around in the mud, the mud on his body should be on his trouser legs, not all over his body, and the mud spots on these officials are the same, just ask, could it be that they all rolled in the mud?"

"This ......"

Huang Zhang's words made Hu Yier speechless.

"That boy can't tell that they're cheating just by the mud on their bodies!"

Indeed, if Qu Jing is really an official who is in charge of the people, it would be somewhat irresponsible to characterize him based on this item alone.

"You've forgotten about the scene in Tuozhen so quickly?"

Speaking of Tuozhen, Hu Yier and Chen Lin will not forget, that scene can be said to be a tragedy in the world.

Also, if Qujing is really dedicated to doing things for the people, how can there be groups of displaced people in Tuozhen?

"Your Highness, do you want to go down and check the details of this Qujing?" Chen Lin asked.

Huang Zhang's words just now also made Chen Lin start to be vigilant, if there was really something wrong with this Qu Jing, then he had to ensure Huang Zhang's safety.

Unexpectedly, Huang Zhang raised his hand.

"No, now we are in Panyan City, this is the realm of Qujing, no matter what you do, it is estimated that you will be discovered, if you really want to investigate, you have to wait until the evening, there are many people during the day, you just go out, people will be staring at you."

"Understood! So what do we do next? ”

"Don't move, I want to see what the hell this Qu Jing wants to do!"

After Huang Zhang and his entourage settled down in Taishou Mansion, someone from Qujing came over and invited Huang Zhang to drink the wind wine.

"So fast?" Hu Yier was a little surprised.

She had cooked by herself, and she must have known that since they had just met Qu Jing and now, they had arranged a meal, which was somewhat fast.

In this regard, Huang Zhang smiled even more.

"Doesn't this show that this Qujing has been prepared for a long time!"

Hu Yi'er nodded.

Now, she can be sure that this Qu Jing is not good.

"It just so happens that while I'm going to have dinner, Chen Lin, you take someone to Panyan City to take a walk around and learn about the situation in Langzhong County."

"Understood!"

"Yi'er, you familiarize yourself with the environment of Taishou Mansion, and draw a map for me when the time comes!"

"Yes!" Hu Yi'er nodded.

After arranging everything, Huang Zhang followed the waiter to the banquet set up by Qujing.

At this moment, Qu Jing and a kind of official were already waiting aside.

They had all changed their clothes and waited for the eldest prince to come to the banquet.

After a pointless exchange of pleasantries, everyone took their seats.

As soon as he sat down, Qu Jing began to complain to Huang Zhang: "Your Highness is finally here, and the lower officials have submitted documents to the imperial court many times, and they are looking forward to having someone who can preside over the overall situation come over." ”

"Oh? I don't know what happened in Langzhong County that made Master Qu so worried? ”

Speaking of this, Qu Jing suddenly sighed!

"Your Highness doesn't know, the year before last, the thieves in the county next door rebelled, and the aftermath involved my Langzhong County at that time, but fortunately, with the help of Sima Suoke, the county stabilized the overall situation. But then the pacification of the Beijing army caused the already dilapidated Langzhong County to be attacked by the displaced people! ”

Speaking of this, Qu Jing looked indignant.

"At first, Xia Guan thought that those were just some displaced people who were affected by the rebels, but who knew that later they found out that those who had originally rebelled, but after being defeated by the Beijing army, they dropped their weapons and disguised themselves as suffering people, alas, it is also strange that Xia Guan did not know anyone and did not discover their essence early."

"And then?" Huang Zhang asked.

"The invasion of the displaced people disrupted the lives of ordinary people in Langzhong County, and in this way, a bunch of people were coerced and began to be displaced!"
