When the thugs heard this voice, they suddenly seemed to have a backbone, and all of them showed a relieved look on their faces, and at the same time took the initiative to flash to both sides, making way for the middle passage.

I saw a man in his thirties, handsome, and bejeweled strode over, and next to him, there were a few guys dressed as ronins.

Li Jiangyao knew that the person in front of him must be Yan Chongxi, who was on the one side of the disaster, and couldn't help but stare at the other party coldly with disdain.

Yan Chongxi walked to the middle of the front yard, first glanced at Zhao Dongming who was lying on the ground, frowned slightly, and then asked in a deep voice, "Who killed my men?" ”

Li Jiangyao didn't answer and asked: "You are Yan Chongxi?" ”

Yan Chongxi raised his eyes and looked at Li Jiangyao for a moment, and suddenly his face changed, as if he couldn't believe his eyes, he stepped forward again, looked at it carefully, but his eyes looked a little surprised.

Li Jiangyao looked at him like this, and his heart was also moved, and he faintly guessed the approximate reason.

Sure enough, the next second, Yan Chongxi exclaimed: "Yes...... Li Dadu Protector? ”

As soon as this sentence was shouted, all the people in the courtyard were dumbfounded: The noble son in front of him, who was not angry and arrogant, turned out to be the world-famous commander of the Zhenjiang Army, and most of them protected Li Jiangyao?

"You know me?" Li Jiangyao asked coldly.

"Oh, I don't just know, I gave you a toast." Yan Chongxi immediately put on a warm smile, and his tone was extremely kind: "Dadu Hu is really a noble person. Not long ago, Luzhou held the opening ceremony of the Silk Road Trading Company. He once represented the Silk Guild to participate in the grand event, and listened to the apologetics of the capital with his own ears. After that, together with my fellow friends, I toasted you, and most of them don't remember? ”

Li Jiangyao was disgusted when he heard this, and couldn't help but secretly think: When I go back, I have to talk to Xie Tanzhi and Situ Wushou about it, and when choosing partners in the future, we must do enough background checks, and we must not let this kind of profiteer and villain get in again.

He was noncommittal to Yan Chongxi's words, and asked coldly: "To be honest, did you collude with the thieves, traffick in human beings, and forcibly annex land, forcing the people to have no way out?" ”

"Wronged!" Yan Chongxi shouted: "Dadu Hu, it is true that he is doing business on the other side of the open sea, but beyond the ocean, there are not only pirates and pirates, but also other countries that are friendly with Shengtang, just like Persia in the Western Continent. And the same Wajima Wa people, there is also a difference between good and bad. It would be biased to treat them indiscriminately as pirates. ”

After a slight pause, he continued: "The so-called human trafficking and land annexation are even more nonsense. There are some people who can't afford to pay off their debts and voluntarily go overseas to make money to make a living, what is the difference between staying in Shengtang and being sold into a wealthy family as slaves? The acquisition of a large amount of land in the next place is really because of years of war and heavy taxes, and many people cannot afford it. I can only sell land to survive, I am tantamount to helping them, how can it be said that it is a way to cut off my life? ”

Yan Chongxi was extremely eloquent, and with a few quibbles, he suddenly said himself cleanly and impeccably, like a saint who saved the world. Although Li Jiangyao and the others are iron-blooded soldiers who are decisive in killing, their style is crisp and neat, and they never drag mud and water, but they always have to pay attention to a famous division in everything. In the face of Yan Chongxi's clever words, the white-robed soldiers didn't know how to deal with it for a while.

Li Jiangyao didn't seem to be in a hurry: "Boss Yan, what you just said, there will always be a day when the truth will come out." It can't be fake, it can't be fake, you can say it, I will listen to it. But ......"

He glanced at the Dongying Ronin and sneered, "What are their identities, can you introduce them?" ”

Yan Chongxi's heart sank when he heard this, and at the same time, he couldn't help but secretly regret it.

Just now, Caidie Xue Jiaojiao came to report for help, only to say that a large number of troublemakers broke into the outside, and all of them had extremely high martial arts, and even Yehe Zhao Dongming was killed. Yan Chongxi considered his own safety, so he planned to use the master of thieves to suppress those uninvited guests.

Unexpectedly, the one who came from the front yard was actually the capital protector of the Zhenjiang Army.

It's really good to die, and it hit someone's knife.

Facing Li Jiangyao's questioning, Yan Chongxi rolled his eyes and said nonsense: "Oh, this Sawakawa Taro is the trade official of His Royal Highness the Taiko of Wajima, and he came to Shengtang this time to discuss a big silk deal with us. Your Excellency Zechuan, let me introduce to you, this lord is the peerless general of my Holy Tang Dynasty, and the most powerful Zhenjiang army in the world protects General Li Jiangyao, you hurry up and salute. ”

Taro Sawakawa looked arrogant, and casually arched his hand to Li Jiangyao: "Hello." ”

"I'm not good," Li Jiangyao said with a smile, "At least you may not think I'm good after a while." Boss Yan, these widows, I want to take them away for investigation. Whether they are the trade officials of the Wajima Taiko or the secret envoys of the Japanese pirates will only be counted until I have clarified. ”

"This ......" Yan Chongxi was slightly stunned: "I'm afraid this is inappropriate, right?" Most of them are all guests I invited, and they also have to spend money to purchase our goods, so it's not easy to offend. ”

Li Jiangyao replied in a hurry: "How can you be sure that I will offend them?" As I said earlier, it's a trade officer, it's a pirate, I'll talk about it when I ask. If I really came to do normal business, I would naturally treat him with courtesy. ”

Yan Chongxi felt that Li Jiangyao must be unwilling to give up today, and couldn't help frowning: "Dadu Hu, if you don't say it properly, this is not your jurisdiction, and the Zhenjiang Army can't control the dam for the time being." The distinguished guests below can't go with you, and there is no reason to be interrogated by you. Daduhu, I think you must have more important things to do when you pass through here, right? If it alarms the nearby rebels, I am afraid it will not be good for anyone. ”

"Yo, threaten me?" Li Jiangyao pointed at Yan Chongxi with a starfall knife: "Believe it or not, I want to take your dog's life, even if there are thousands of troops, I can't stop it." ”

Yan Chongxi raised his head: "Of course I believe this." Most of the three armies of the brave champion, no matter where they are, the head under them is like picking up something, but you can't kill me. ”

Li Jiangyao couldn't help but laugh: "Oh? Why? Give me a reason. ”

Yan Chongxi also smiled, and he said in a soft voice: "Because I am the emperor's secret envoy!" ”

-

"Lord Changshi, has Wu Ling explained?" As soon as Shi Feng entered the door, he asked anxiously.

Yuan Bin replied for Shen Lie next to him: "It's all recruited." Don't look at that guy seems to be a hard bone, but as soon as Shen Changshi came forward and hadn't tortured him yet, Wu Ling trembled with fright and asked what to say. ”

Shen Lie smiled faintly: "He's not afraid of me, but afraid of his master Lao Jianhua." Wu Ling knew very well in his heart that those methods of Lao Jianhua's association, Shen Mou would also, and he would do more, so if he resisted hard, he would only be extremely painful, and in the end, he still had to confess obediently, and nothing could be changed. ”

He motioned for Shi Feng to sit down and asked, "How is the situation outside?" ”

"Not good." Shi Feng shook his head: "At present, the Reverse Scale Division and the Tiger and Leopard Rider have obviously joined forces completely, and the scope of the search is getting bigger and bigger, and the intensity is getting deeper and deeper. It doesn't take long to sweep our area. My lord, what should I do next? There aren't many places left to hide. ”

Shen Lie frowned: "I can't go to the Horse Mansion anymore, and the alternate location is also being seen to death by the other party one after another, so there is no better choice than to leave the city." ”

Yuan Bin said worriedly: "But it's not easy to leave the city, especially now that you have to take Wu Ling and Rui Ji with you, it's very inconvenient." ”

Shi Feng nodded: "Xiao Yuan is right. I went to the west of the city and the south of the city today, and everything in the imperial capital is normal on the surface, but in fact it is no different from martial law. At each city gate, there are a large number of people from the Beiya Reverse Scale Division, and it is easy to enter the city and difficult to get out of the city, so they are checked very carefully. ”

He paused slightly, and then added: "Everyone who goes out of the city has to be pinched and their hair pinched, apparently to prevent disguise. ”

"Where's the secret passage out of the city?" Shen Lie asked.

"The secret passage, we know, and the Reverse Scale Division also knows, basically all of them are seen dead." Shi Feng sighed helplessly: "I feel that if you want to leave the imperial capital right now, you can only kill it." ”

Shen Lie glanced out the window: "You estimate, how long can you stay here?" ”

Shi Feng responded: "According to the current speed of the forbidden army's search and investigation, at most we will have to withdraw at this time tomorrow, otherwise we will be blocked in the courtyard by the other party." ”

Shen Lie thought about it and said indifferently: "Maybe there is another way." ”

"What's the solution?" Yuan Bin and Shi Feng asked in unison.

"I'll lead them away." Shen Lie smiled: "What the emperor wants is Shen, as long as I show up and even escape from the imperial capital, they will naturally no longer search other places." ”

Yuan Bin waved his hand: "This can't work!" Before coming to the imperial capital, the death order given to me by the Dadu Protector is to protect your safety at all costs. Isn't that the way you try to attract the enemy force me to commit suicide and apologize? ”

Shen Lie laughed dumbly when he heard this: "Hey, look at what you said, how can it be so exaggerated?" Shen is not a young man who has just debuted, and it is not easy for the forbidden army to catch me. ”

Yuan Bin was about to refute again, but Shi Feng stopped him: "Hey, when Lord Changshi said this, he reminded me." Two, look at this, please Lord Shen give me a disguise, dress me up like you, and lure the enemy away. When they are really about to catch up with me, I just need to get back to my original appearance and get out safely, isn't that the best of both worlds? ”

Shen Lie's eyes lit up: "Well, this plan is indeed feasible." However, you are not the right person. ”

"Why?" Shi Feng was a little puzzled.

Shen Lie said patiently: "I heard that you were previously ordered to serve as the liaison officer between the Imperial Capital Branch and the Horse Mansion, right? At that time, he should have been accompanied by Princess Fenyang as the chief general of the Blue Dragon Legion, right? In that case, the people of the Scales will remember you, so even if you return to your original appearance, I am afraid that you will not escape their clutches. ”

"Then let me go!" Yuan Bin hurriedly said: "I'm a raw face!" ”
