Lu Fangxuan slowed down for a while before he had to calm down, and said to the soldier: "Don't be nervous, it's not a big deal." I'll take a look with your generals. ”

Lu Fangxuan walked out of the barracks, looked at the horse from a distance, and saw more than a dozen officers and soldiers walking back and forth under the city gate, and some people even went to set up crossbows on the city tower, and several people were ready to twist the drawbridge up, as if they were going to fight.

The officer's eyebrows tightened, and without waiting for Lu Fangxuan's orders, he galloped over, the drawbridge had been suspended for half a foot, hurriedly reined in his horse, and asked the other side: "What kind of medicine did your inspection department take, and you dare to seal the city by yourself!" ”

Inspector Jiang came from the side and replied: "I never dare to act without permission, and only follow the instructions from above. Lü Siban said that there were assassins in many places in Nanjing, so he locked down the city for a day to look for his footprints in case of danger. ”

Lu Fangxuan also came from behind, stopped his horse, and hurriedly beckoned to Jiang Tian.

"Oh, Lu Yue Gong." Inspector Jiang smiled, "You're here." ”

"You see, I'm not an outsider, and I still suspect that I'm an assassin?" Lu Fangxuan's tone was now euphemistic, "A little special case is not overstepping." ”

Jiang Xunjian took two steps back and arched his hand again: "The culpability has been lowered, Jiang really can't afford it." If Duke Lu is in a hurry, ask me to report to Governor Ye. ”

Lu Fangxuan pouted, and had no choice but to sigh: "Since Inspector Jiang refuses to let him go, it is better for this official to be in the camp for the first class." ”

He lifted the tent and walked into the hall, gritting his teeth and slamming the table with his fist.

"Lord Lu should not be angry......"

"How did Liu Dang know?" Lu Fangxuan let out a sullen breath, "They have a lot of talents there......"

"King Wanjun should know, right......?"

"I'm not afraid of any Liu Dang, I'm afraid that he will know! If he knows, he will be in trouble......" Lu Fangxuan said worriedly, "I hope that Zheng will be able to turn things around......"

"What?" Zheng Shiyan got up in a panic under the gaze of the full house of officers, "Can't send the letter?" ”

"What's going on?" The crowd came up one after another.

"It's probably because the Liu Party knew our intentions and sealed Nanjing City in advance." The man explained helplessly.

Zheng Shiyan thought of Lu Fangxuan's previous words, and suddenly woke up and said, "Has the Wan Party ever known? ”

"They shouldn't know ......"

"No," Zheng Shiyan immediately shook his head, "We can't ignore the old opponent of Wandang!" It's best to ask someone first. ”

He continued: "We can't get in there, Your Majesty, and we can't communicate; The Wan Dang will not tell the truth. Ye Yongjia...... He is a Liu party, and I am afraid he will not help us. Zheng Shiyan raised his head, "Think about it, is there anyone you can talk to us?" ”

When everyone heard this, they all looked sad and at a loss, and fell into a long period of calm. Zheng Shiyan couldn't help it, he ran to the house and looked at the Western clock, and then came back to look at the sky, the sun was almost setting.

"Shi Xiushen." Someone suddenly said the name.

"Who?" Although Zheng Shiyan was not familiar with it, he became excited as soon as he heard his name.

"The previous Commander of the Forbidden Army. He was sick, so he let this Lu Yingshan come up. Here's one thing to remember. ”

"Where does he live?" Zheng Shiyan was quite anxious.

"Living in the west of the city, it's easy to see."

As soon as he said this, the people around him smiled with relief.

"Okay," Zheng Shiyan was also relieved, "but...... I am not good at talking, and if I ask people to do things, I am inferior to others. Do you have anyone who would like to go? ”

"We people are not even leaders, and we have to be qualified to discuss with big officials like others."

Zheng Shiyan pulled the collar of his shirt and looked around the entire conference hall, "It's better to invite Qi Shi back first and help out." ”

After hearing this, the generals looked at each other, and they should claim to be so.

Qi Zhi lives in a nearby alley. Zheng Shiyan didn't have to drink a few bowls of tea, and then saw two soldiers coming with Qi Shi, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

"Commander Qi, aren't you coming back again," Zheng Shiyan held his arm, "What I said is true......"

Qi Zhi sneered: "When Duke Lu comes back, don't throw Qi Zhi away again." ”

Zheng Shiyan smiled but did not answer, and diverted the conversation: "Let's say serious things." Now that the city gate is sealed, the Wan Dang may have different intentions, so you'd better go to the Si Ban Shi Xiushen in the west of the city to see if he knows a little bit of the inside story. If Wan Dang really does not believe in his words, he will take my Yue Mansion and open the knife, that is, he will beg him to tell the Liu Party to take countermeasures. Rest assured, someone will show you the way, and you will be there in a moment. ”

Qi Zhi laughed and said: "General Zheng knows that someone Qi likes to deal with the Wan Dang the most, leave this matter to me, and General Zheng will sleep peacefully tonight." ”

"Okay, let's go!" When he saw that Qi Shi was enthusiastic, he didn't say anything more, but arranged for a person to be his guide and went with him.

Shi Xiushen's body has always been healthy, and there will be no serious illness. Although he still had to pretend, he stayed at home all day, unable to find a character to talk to, and his heart was irritable. At noon today, he suddenly remembered that Ye Yongjia, the prefect of Nanjing, was an old acquaintance, so he went to visit the government.

"Is Lord Ye here?" Shi Xiushen bumped into a scribe head-on and asked.

The man heard that his voice was rough and his face was fierce, not like a person to be messed with, so he said in a low voice: "Master Ye is in the study, you can just go." ”

"Okay, let's go." Shi Xiushen didn't look at him either, and walked into the yamen by himself.

At this time, Ye Yongjia was drowsy by those official duties, and he was already very sleepy, and he was about to take a nap when he saw a strong man with a beard coming to him outside the window - but Ye Zhifu didn't know this person. But he woke up and reluctantly opened the door.

"Ye Zhifu!" Shi Xiushen looked at this dazed person and laughed.

"Are you ......?" Ye Yongjia was a little familiar with this face, but he almost forgot it.

Shi Xiushen leaned closer and pointed to his face: "Shi Xiushen who is in charge of the forbidden army!" Forbidden Shi Xiu Shen! ”

Ye Yongjia was still puzzled.

He laughed, "Your memory isn't very good!" In Chenzhou, I helped you break the city and sent Lu Deguang to ...... Do you remember this time? ”

Ye Yongjia suddenly smiled, slapped his forehead, and said excitedly: "Yes! Brother Mingzhen, right? ”

Shi Xiu bowed cautiously: "It's down there!" ”

Governor Ye grabbed his arm, "You, the great benefactor who let me survive, why did I forget, I'm really ashamed, ashamed." Please come into the study! ”

Shi Xiushen followed him in, took a stool and sat down, and saw Ye Yongjia and said, "Master Shi, you look a lot older...... Ten years ago, right? It's also thanks to Shi Si Ban for not reporting my evil deeds in Chenzhou to the imperial court, otherwise the party in Nanjing would have to turn me upside down! ”

"You are doing things for General Liu, they don't dare to act recklessly." Shi Xiushen said casually.

Ye Yongjia was so twisted by this unintentional remark that he gradually frowned and sighed bitterly.
