Chapter 556, Burning Flame Pavilion

Yang Peng smiled: "Don't you like it?" Then change it, it's called Ji Ji? Well, that doesn't sound good! Yan Ji was so angry that her chest rose and fell violently, and a pair of beautiful eyes were round, as if she was about to burst into flames! Yang Peng's eyes lit up and said, "I thought of a very good title!" Looking at Yan Ji, he smiled evilly: "Just call it Ai Ji!" Yan Ji's heart fluttered, she snorted, and said angrily: "I don't listen to your nonsense!" Then he turned and left.

Yang Peng shouted at her graceful back: "Hey, think about it, I'm a very good man!" Yan Ji was embarrassed, stomped her foot suddenly, and walked away quickly. The others heard Yang Peng's shout, and saw the appearance of the two again, thinking that the two were flirting and scolding, and couldn't help but secretly laugh.

Yang Peng smiled, picked up the beef, took a big bite, and ate it with relish. But thinking of Luo Yanran and An Qian's matter, the smile on his face disappeared instantly, and he couldn't help but sigh.

Wang Shanzi, the prefect of Langzhou, was pacing back and forth in the lobby of the prefect's yamen, with a look of regret, frustration and worry, and sighed from time to time. This Wang Shanzi is a middle-aged man in his forties, with a medium build, a clear face, and he doesn't look like a bad person.

A staff member suddenly rushed in in a panic and shouted, "Oh no, no, no! King Yan is here! Wang Shanzi was so frightened that his face turned green, swallowed his saliva, and stammered, "You, what did you say?" King Yan, King Yan is here? How did King Yan come here? The staff shook his head and said, "My subordinates don't know, but it's really King Yan who is here!" It's already in town! ”

Wang Shanzi was so anxious that he was like ants on a hot pot, and said vigorously: "It's bad, it's bad, it's bad!" It's over, it's over, my little life is over! The staff hurriedly said: "My lord, King Yan is coming, we have to go out to meet it quickly!" ”

Wang Shanzi didn't know what to do, nodded and said, "I greeted King Yan first!" Then he commanded his staff: "Immediately gather all the staff to go with me!" The staff answered and ran down. Yang Peng and his entourage of more than 300 people came to the gate of the government office, and Wang Shanzi happened to lead his subordinates and the directors of various government offices to run out of the gate. Seeing Yang Peng and his entourage, his heart sank, and he hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down and bowed: "Welcome to His Royal Highness King Yan!" I don't know that King Yan is coming, and I am not welcomed, and I ask King Yan to forgive my sins! ”

Yang Peng and the others turned over and dismounted, and Yang Peng smiled and said, "Lord Wang doesn't have to be polite. Your Excellency doesn't need to be polite. Wang Shanzi and his subordinates said in unison: "Thank you King Yan!" Then they all stood up. Only then did Wang Shanzi notice that there were only about 300 soldiers and horses following Yang Peng, and his heart couldn't help but move, and he bowed down and said: "Dare to ask King Yan, I don't know how many soldiers and horses are entourage, and the next official will arrange accommodation and food." ”

Yang Peng said: "Lord Wang doesn't have to be busy, it's just us." Wang Shanzi's expression moved, and then he bowed down and promised to welcome Yang Peng and the others into the gate. Yang Peng, Yan Ji and more than a dozen other people walked into the hall surrounded by officials, and the rest of the army was in charge of guarding around the hall and outside the government office. Yang Peng walked to the top and sat down, Yan Ji stood beside him with his sword, the officials stood under the hall, and more than a dozen secret guards stood on both sides of the hall. The officials greeted again, then stood up and bowed their heads to the instructions.

Yang Peng smiled and said: "I'm presumptuous to come, you adults still perform their own duties, and you don't have to think about anything else." The officials bowed down together. Yang Peng looked at Wang Shanzi, "Lord Wang, Miss Luo and Miss An are here, right?" Wang Shanzi looked a little panicked, and hurriedly said: "Back to King Yan, the two young ladies have indeed been to Langzhou, but they have left three days ago!" Yang Peng looked at Wang Shanzi and asked, "Where did they go?" Wang Shanzi said hesitantly: "This, this, this subordinate doesn't know." ”

Yang Peng said unhappily: "Where did the two young ladies go, you don't know?" Wang Shanzi's heart sank, and he hurriedly knelt down, kowtowed, and said: "Xiaguan, Xiaguan is stupid!" ”

Yang Peng snorted, glanced at the officials, and raised his voice: "Which of you knows the whereabouts of the two young ladies?" The officials looked at each other and said they didn't know. Yang Peng was annoyed in his heart, and said to Wang Shanzi: "The two young ladies are under my order to preside over the return of refugees to their hometowns, this Langzhou is the throat of Shaanxi in the north, the two young ladies must have a big move here, and they must communicate and coordinate with you local officials, and it is impossible to be silent when they leave, you don't know?!" Wang Shanzi hurriedly kowtowed and said, "The lower official is derelict in his duties!" The lower official is derelict in his duties! ”

Yang Peng snorted and said, "Send someone to inquire about their whereabouts immediately, I want to know the exact news between tomorrow, otherwise you will not do anything as a prefect!" "Wang Shanzi only promised. Yang Peng stood up and led Yan Ji and the others to leave the hall, and then the hidden killers who were on guard around the hall and the subordinates of 'Hua Xu' gathered over, except for the government office.

A subordinate walked up to Wang Shanzi, bent down and said, "My lord, King Yan is gone!" Wang Shanzi breathed a sigh of relief, straightened up and looked outside, but Yang Peng and the others could no longer be seen. With the support of his subordinates, he stood up and said to all his subordinates: "King Yan is here, we must do our own things diligently, and we must not be negligent!" If anyone neglects his duties, even if King Yan doesn't blame him, I can't spare him! The crowd agreed in unison. Wang Shanzi waved his hand, "Let's all go down!" The subordinates saluted Wang Shanzi and rushed out, only two of the subordinates remained in the hall and did not leave.

When everyone left, a subordinate said anxiously: "My lord, King Yan actually came to find those two young ladies, could it be that King Yan has discovered something?" Wang Shanzi glared and shouted: "What nonsense! What has been discovered, as if we have something unseemly! Don't say that again! "That guy is only a promise. Another subordinate said anxiously: "My lord, King Yan is not good! Perhaps, maybe he heard something, that's why he's here! ……”

Wang Shanzi said angrily: "Don't scare yourself, if King Yan really knows something, will he only bring three hundred or so guards?" When the two staff members heard this, they felt that it was very reasonable, and the fear in their hearts couldn't help but subside a lot, but that worry still lingered in their hearts and lingered. One of the staff said: "My lord, even if King Yan hasn't discovered anything yet, he will find something sooner or later!" By then, we, we'......" All three turned pale. Another staff member said: "My lord, I have to quickly let Mo Gongzi solve the matter, maybe he can cover it, otherwise it will ,......"

Wang Shanzi nodded, pointed at the staff member and said, "You hurry up to the 'Divine Turtle Valley', tell Mo Gongzi about the situation here, and tell him to deal with the matter as soon as possible!" This matter cannot be delayed any longer, otherwise we will all die without a place to be buried! Tell him that he has to die without a place to bury! When he said the last sentence, Wang Shanzi looked a little hysterical. The staff member was heartbroken, clenched his fists and promised, and hurried down.

Wang Shanzi said to another staff member: "You, immediately and secretly organize the officials and the catchers and catchers, if the matter really reaches the point of being out of control, then you have to make a desperate bet!" Wang Shanzi's eyes flashed with a fierce light. The staff member said yes and ran down.

Wang Shanzi pondered for a moment, and shouted: "Someone! When even one of the officials rushed in, bowed down and hugged his fists, and said, "What do you command?" Wang Shanzi said: "Go and inquire, where are the Yan kings and their footing?" The official answered the promise and ran down. Soon after, the official reported that King Yan and his party had settled in the local post house. Wang Shanzi immediately changed into civilian clothes, led a few cronies and entourage, and rushed to the post house with local specialty food.

After the ceremony, Wang Shanzi followed a secret guard into a room in the backyard. I saw Yang Peng, who was dressed in civilian clothes, sitting there drinking tea, and hurriedly stepped forward to bow and said, "Xiaguan to meet King Yan!" ”

Yang Peng put down the tea bowl and asked, "Lord Wang suddenly came, is there any news of the two young ladies?" Wang Shanzi hurriedly said: "Back to King Yan, Xia Guan has already sent people to inquire from all sides, and I believe that there will be news of the two young ladies soon." Yang Peng said: "You'd better hurry!" Remember, the black gauze hat on your head is closely related to this matter! Wang Shanzi was submissive, and then said: "Xiaguan specially ordered someone to buy some local specialties, all of which are some local food, and please Yan Wang Xiaona!" Yang Peng nodded, his attitude softened, and said, "Lord Wang has a heart!" Seeing this, Wang Shanzi couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "If King Yan still needs anything, just order it down, and the lower officials will do their best to do it for King Yan!" ”

Yang Peng said: "No need. Wang Shanzi hurriedly answered, and then asked cautiously: "I don't know why King Yan is looking for the two young ladies?" Maybe the lower officials can do it for you! Yang Peng said: "You don't have to know about this. Okay, if you're fine, go down. Wang Shanzi wanted to continue the temptation, but King Yan had already said goodbye, and Wang Shanzi didn't dare to say anything, so he bowed down and said, "Then, the lower official will retire!" As soon as the lower officials learned the news of the two young ladies, they rushed to report to King Yan as soon as possible! Then he retreated. Yang Peng looked out of the door, his face showing thought.

After nightfall, Yang Peng strolled in the courtyard of the post house, his brows furrowed slightly. Yan Ji walked over quickly and whispered, "Big brother, our people have learned something about the situation in the refugee camp outside the city. The camp was originally used to house refugees, but now it is a transit center for returning refugees, and those who have returned to their hometowns under the official organization will stay here for a short time or even overnight before moving on.

Yang Peng's expression was calm, and he didn't speak, waiting for Yan Ji to continue. Yan Ji continued: "Our people learned in the refugee camp that the two young ladies did leave three days ago. No one knows what the specific reason is, no one knows where they went, only that the two young ladies left in a hurry, and it seems that there is something urgent. ”

Yang Peng listened while thinking, and when Yan Ji finished speaking, he asked, "What do you think?" Yan Ji said: "Judging from the information obtained so far, that prefect Wang is not lying. In addition, the two young ladies left because of an urgent matter, and the two young ladies followed the orders of King Yan to deal with the matter of repatriating refugees. Therefore, the incident that caused the two young ladies to leave in a hurry must have something to do with the repatriation of refugees. ”

Yang Peng nodded, "What you said is exactly what I thought." Yan Ji frowned and said: "But in the past few days, the intelligence from 'Huaxu' has shown that there has not been anything noticeable in Langzhou and the surrounding areas, or even in the whole of Sichuan, neither major incidents in the refugee side nor major military and political events. The sudden departure of the two young ladies is really a little inexplicable, I'm afraid that there is something wrong! ”

Yang Peng asked, "When will your people be able to reply?" "I'll be able to get back tomorrow morning." Yang Peng crossed his hands on the table, supported his chin, and looked thoughtful. Wang Shanzi returned to the mansion, feeling a little dazed and at a loss.

A close confidant came up and said, "My lord, the government officials of all the prefectures, the heads and the people's army, have all been secretly assembled. Wang Shanzi walked to a chair and sat down, and commanded, "Go and watch, no one is allowed to leave the camp without my orders." Wait for my orders. Remember, you have to be careful not to let the news go. The subordinate said yes and ran down.

As soon as this staff member walked on his front foot, another staff member walked in quickly, hugged his fists and said, "My lord, Master Mo is here." Wang Shanzi was taken aback, and hurriedly looked towards the door, only to see a young man in a Confucian shirt, handsome with a bit of evil spirit, and elegant with a little sharpness coming in. Wang Shanzi asked angrily, "Why are you here?" ”

Mo Haotian smiled and said: "I heard that the adults have something to ask, how dare Xiaosheng slack off, naturally he came over to listen to the adults' teachings in person." Wang Shanzi asked urgently: "Let me ask you, how are the two young ladies doing now?" Mo Haotian sat down next to Wang Shanzi and said, "You don't have to ask about this matter. Wang Shanzi said angrily: "What are these words? What do I mean I don't have to ask? Are you crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, unloading the mill and killing the donkey! ”

Mo Haotian smiled and said, "Don't be excited, adults. The matter of those two young ladies has been completed, what does Lord Wang mean by asking more? Wang Shanzi's face changed, "You, you have already killed them?" Mo Haotian glanced at Wang Shanzi and said with a smile: "Lord Wang, it really surprises me that you are so concerned about their situation!" In this matter, everything that Lord Wang should do has been done, so why bother asking! If you ask too much, it won't do Lord Wang any good, it's just asking for trouble! ”

Wang Shanzi said: "I want you to terminate the plan immediately!" Otherwise, we will both die without a place to bury! Mo Haotian shook his head, "Does Lord Wang think it's possible?" Ever since Yang Peng killed my father, I have been inseparable from him! I, Mo Haotian and Yang Peng, one of the two must die! ”

Wang Shanzi said angrily: "If you want to go crazy, even if you go crazy, why do you want to drag me into the water!" I quit! You are about to release the two young ladies, and I will return all the money I received from you! ”

Mo Haotian glanced at Wang Shanzi with an idiot-like look and said, "Don't you think it's too late to quit now?" Wang Shanzi was furious, Huo Ran got up, looked down at Mo Haotian who was sitting on the chair, and said with an unkind expression: "If you put back the two young ladies, I don't think I have seen you at all for the sake of friendship with Old Man Mo." If you don't, hum, don't blame me for not being emotional! ”

Mo Haotian looked calm in the face of Wang Shanzi's threat, as if he didn't take it to heart at all, smiled indifferently, and said: "This is Lord Wang's territory, if Lord Wang wants to kill me, it will be very easy." Glancing at Wang Shanzi, he smiled mockingly, "It's just, do you dare to kill me?" ”

Wang Shanzi smiled coldly and said, "Although this official has a good relationship with Old Man Mo, if you go too far, I have no choice but to be sorry for Old Man Mo!" ”

Mo Haotian laughed, Wang Shanzi frowned and shouted, "What are you laughing at?" Mo Haotian glanced at Wang Shanzi and said teasingly: "Lord Wang recognizes money and doesn't recognize people, I, Mo Haotian, already know, Lord Wang doesn't need to hide it." Wang Shanzi was a little annoyed and angry. Mo Haotian waved his hand and said, "Lord Wang doesn't need to be angry, it's not good to be angry." Lord Wang, do you think that I have no precautions against you? Wang Shanzi's heart moved and asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Mo Haotian said: "Actually, it's nothing, it's just that if I die, someone will naturally hand over a letter to King Yan," Wang Shanzi's face changed in horror when he heard this. Mo Haotian glanced at Wang Shanzi, smiled mockingly, and continued: "The letter describes in detail the matter of Lord Wang assisting me in persecuting Miss Luo and Miss An, I don't know how King Yan will feel after reading this letter?" Wang Shanzi pointed at Mo Haotian, his fingers trembled, his face was pale, his eyes were wide open, and his expression showed extremely resentment and fear.

Mo Haotian said with a smile: "If Lord Wang doesn't want that kind of thing to happen, it's actually very easy to do, as long as Lord Wang continues to cooperate sincerely with me, then there will never be any letters in Yang Peng's hands." Wang Shanzi suddenly withered like a deflated ball, sat back in his seat, and muttered, "I was killed by you!" I was killed by you! ……”

Mo Haotian said: "Lord Wang doesn't have to be like this! No one knows about this except me, so why should Lord Wang bother himself? Then a cold light flashed in his eyes, "If Yang Peng dies, there will be no need to worry about this matter!" ”

Wang Shanzi chuckled in his heart, hurriedly looked at Mo Haotian, and asked urgently, "What else do you want to do?" Mo Haotian said: "I heard that Yang Peng lives in the post house. Now Yang Peng has no doubts about adults, so naturally he would not expect that there would be any danger in the post house in the city, why didn't Lord Wang take this opportunity to wipe out Yang Peng and the others! ”

Wang Shanzi was so frightened that he almost jumped up and shouted, "What did you say?!" Mo Haotian made a silent gesture and said angrily: "Lord Wang, aren't you afraid of being heard by outsiders?" Wang Shanzi's heart sank, and he lowered his voice and said angrily: "I won't do this thing!" You are too whimsical, King Yan is brave and crowns the world, how can it be so easy to deal with! Besides, he has three hundred guards, although the number is not many, but all of them are iron-blooded elites with one as ten, and it is simply impossible to eliminate them and kill Yang Peng! As long as one person escapes, you and I will be crushed to pieces and die without a place to bury! This must not be done! ”

Mo Haotian said: "I'm afraid this matter can't be blamed by Lord Wang!" Wang Shanzi was startled, thinking of his means of threatening himself, he panicked and frightened, and suddenly stood up and shouted: "You obviously want to force me to death!" I'm going to fight with you! ”

Mo Haotian laughed mockingly and said, "Lord Wang, you have lost your temper again!" Wang Shanzi shouted hysterically: "How can you tell me to calm down? Mo Haotian said: "It is not difficult to completely annihilate Yang Peng and others. Wang Shanzi was stunned for a moment, calmed down a little, and felt that Mo Haotian might have some tricks, sat down, and asked, "What plan do you have?" ”

Mo Haotian smiled: "It's actually very simple! It was only necessary to wait until midnight when they were all asleep, and then the lord led his subordinates to quietly pile up firewood and grass around the post house and pour fire oil," Wang Shanzi's expression moved. Mo Haotian glanced at Wang Shanzi, with an evil smile on his face, and said, "No matter how brave Yang Peng is, no matter how powerful Yan Yunjun is, what can he do in the flames?" can only end up in ashes! Wang Shanzi nodded thoughtfully, and said, "This strategy is feasible!" ”

Mo Haotian said: "The rise and strength of Yan Yun all depend on Yang Peng, if Yang Peng dies, Yan Yun will inevitably be in chaos." At that time, Lord Wang could continue to stay here and watch the situation develop for profit, or he could go to Jiangnan with his net worth. Stay or go, the sky is high and the birds can fly, and the sea is wide with the fish jumping! Wang Shanzi couldn't help laughing.

Mo Haotian said: "If you have no opinion, let's talk about the specific details of the action." Wang Shanzi felt that he was now difficult to ride a tiger, so he simply gave him a fight, maybe he could open up a new situation! At this thought, Wang Shanzi made up his mind and nodded.

In the middle of the night, two of Wang Shanzi's cronies led the officials in front of the palace to capture a large amount of firewood, grass and oil. Immediately, the two staff members passed down the order, and the officials quickly surrounded the post house with firewood and grass, and then poured fire oil. With the order of one of the staff, dozens of officials armed with torches quickly took torches and lit the firewood and grass on all sides. The firewood and grass were already there, but now they were poured with oil, and when they encountered an open flame, they immediately burst into flames and spread rapidly.

In the blink of an eye, a raging fire surrounded the hotel, and the fire demon's claws continued to extend towards the hotel, and after a while, many houses, bamboo forests and trees in the hotel were also burning fiercely; Someone ran out of the room, screaming.

Accompanied by several cronies, Wang Shanzi stood in the attic of his mansion and looked at the burning mansion, his expression was uncertain, and his heart was infinitely excited and extremely frightened.

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
