A month later, outside the city of Yongzhou.

Although the sun in early winter is not as bright as in spring, as hot as in summer, and as bright as in autumn, it gives people a warm feeling. The sun shines on the earth, plating the green mountains and green waters outside Yongzhou City with a layer of gold, and only the morning dew that still exists among the plants and trees shows the coldness of winter.

Wan Jianfeng led the donkey, hummed a little song, and walked briskly among the fields. He had always loved to laugh, and now he had a smile on his face, warmer and brighter than the sun. Murong Yunyao followed behind Wan Jianfeng, but his expression was diametrically opposed to him, and he was surprisingly dignified.

She looked at Yongzhou City in the distance, and her mind kept thinking of the irrepressible tension and anxiety that Hou Renbao and Kou Zhun had when they left Yongzhou last time. At that time, it was almost a year ago, who knows what happened in Yongzhou this year?

In Wan Jianfeng's eyes, the scenery outside the city was very beautiful, but in Murong Yunyao's eyes, it was full of decay and desolation. Just as some people sometimes love the beauty of winter, and some people often complain about the cold of winter, it is just a different state of mind.

The two walked for a long time one after the other, and finally entered Yongzhou.

Murong Yunyao had been here a year ago, and he was no stranger to the streets and alleys of this place, so he found the government office without much effort. She was secretly relieved to see that the two vermilion lacquer gates of the palace were open, and there were officials and people entering and exiting the gate one after another, and everything seemed to be in order.

Wan Jianfeng tied the donkey, squeezed into the people who were fighting the lawsuit, and looked at the door curiously. He saw that it was not Hou Renbao who was promoted to ask about the case at this time, but Kou Zhun who had a one-sided relationship, and immediately retracted his head.

Murong Yunyao smiled and said, "Hey, aren't you afraid of heaven and earth, why are you scared like this when you see Brother Pingzhong?" ”

Wan Jianfeng said embarrassedly: "Ben Shaoxia has never stolen the sky, he has never stolen the earth, but he has stolen him." He is asking about the case in the ascending court, and all kinds of torture tools are readily available, can I not hide from it? ”

Murong Yunyao looked at the people lined up in front of him, and estimated: "Look at this posture, we won't be able to enter for a while, it's better to find a place to rest first, and come back later." ”

Wan Jianfeng nodded, and was about to walk out with Murong Yunyao in his arms, but Hou Renbao, who was dressed in civilian clothes, walked over. He didn't know Wan Jianfeng, but he was quite familiar with Murong Yunyao, and walked over with a smile, "Miss Murong, that wind blew you here?" Don't come unharmed, huh? ”

Murong Yunyao also smiled, "Lord Hou, as the prefect, you don't personally go to the court to ask about the case, and you are still wearing plainclothes and dangling in front of the mansion, what kind of trouble is this?" ”

Hou Renbao pulled Murong Yunyao out of the crowd and said in a low voice: "Miss Murong, you are also behind the gate, and I won't hide some things from you." Now Qu Yue in the south is unwilling to surrender to our Great Song Dynasty for a long time, and often eyes our country and waits for opportunities to resist. Their Ten Dao generals, Li Huan, often sent spies to infiltrate Yongzhou to find out the truth of Yongzhou. So we had to guard against it. As the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is invincible, I intend to leave the affairs of the government to Kou Xiandi for the time being, and go to Qu Yue in person, I heard that the activities of the Chaos Sect in the Qu Yue area are also very rampant, and I may be able to find an opportunity to eliminate Qu Yue and the Chaos Sect in one fell swoop. ”

Wan Jianfeng couldn't help but laugh out loud when he heard this, "Hahaha, this adult, you really know how to joke!" As a dignified prefect, you look like an official master, how did you become a spy? Once you go into danger alone, not only is it difficult to find any chance to break the enemy, but even your life is not guaranteed if you make a slight mistake. You're either kidding us, or you're too nasty! ”

Murong Yunyao also said: "Lord Hou, you must not take risks alone, according to this girl, it is safer for you to pick a few smart and clever people in the government to do this errand." ”

Hou Renbao sighed, "Alas, this official has also been thinking about it for many days, but there are few talents in the Yongzhou Mansion, and only Kou Xiandi can be of great use, but he is not the best candidate." First, he didn't know martial arts, and secondly, all kinds of cases in the government were inseparable from him, so I decided to go in person in desperation. ”

Murong Yunyao glanced at Wan Jianfeng, and then asked Hou Renbao and said, "Lord Hou, if you really can't send manpower, we are willing to go this way for you." You can rest assured, don't say that the little Qu Yue, even the tiger's den and Longtan, we dare to break in. ”

Hou Renbao thought for a while and said solemnly: "Since Miss Murong is willing to help, it is naturally great, but you have no experience in being an errand, so don't be reckless." Just respond immediately, visit the people, and remember not to go deep into the side of the emperor Ding Buling or the general of the Ten Daos, Li Huan, to avoid accidents. ”

Murong Yunyao said disapprehantly: "Lord Hou doesn't have to worry, even if you meet Ding Buling and Li Huan, they are not the opponents of this girl, just capture them to earn some credit for you." ”

Hou Renbao hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Miss Murong, don't act recklessly!" That Li Huan's martial arts are not trivial, if Miss Murong really bumps into him, don't provoke him, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable, remember to remember! ”

Murong Yunyao smiled, "Okay, since Lord Hou said so, this girl must not offend him." It's a pity that Brother Pingzhong is on official business, and he is about to leave before he can talk to him, and he won't see him again for a few days......"

Hou Renbao clenched his fists and said, "Miss Murong, don't worry, I will definitely tell Brother Kou Xian the news that you came to Yongzhou." Thank you two for your help, you must take care of this trip, Brother Kou Xian and I are waiting for you in Yongzhou. In addition, the two of them need to be cautious, in case of an accident, just a note, and the official will lead the army to the rescue. ”

Murong Yunyao was obviously disgusted with Renbao's verbosity, so he hurriedly returned the salute and said happily: "Okay, let's go, see you later!" She didn't even look back, and walked quickly to the southwest.

Wan Jianfeng hurriedly untied the donkey, followed closely, and complained as he walked: "Little witch, you really think that you are the incarnation of Doumu Yuanjun, why do you take all the work on yourself, if you don't have this Shaoxia a few times before, you don't know how many times you have died." ”

Murong Yunyao turned his head to Wan Jianfeng and smiled: "Immortal Chief, Ben Yuanjun heard that the scenery of Quyue is good, and the rice wine there tastes very good, isn't it wonderful!" If you don't want to go, you can set up a hexagram stall in Yongzhou for the time being, continue to swagger and deceive, and Ben Yuanjun will go alone! ”

"Rice wine!" Wan Jianfeng suddenly came to his senses when he heard this, and subconsciously quickened his pace, if he wasn't afraid that Murong Yunyao would be unhappy, he was afraid that he would have already ridden a donkey and galloped away in the direction of Qu Yue.
