Chapter 383: Identity Exposed
Yanmei said to Xianglan: "Can the master of the door order the people of your sect to automatically put down their blades?" lest there be any extraneous branches. ”
Xianglan said: "County Lord, otherwise, you should be lenient." I conducted a thorough investigation of the gate and reported the results to the county lord. ”
Fleur immediately said: "No, since the county lord is here, where is your turn to push back?" ”
Xianglan looked at Yanmei and the others, and saw that she seemed to be confident, and she couldn't see that she was seriously injured. Xianglan knew that if she fought hard, I was afraid that Quanxiangmen would not be an opponent, after all, they were the government, and it would naturally be unwise to openly confront them.
Xianglan groaned for a while and said, "Okay, I'll go with the county lord." I believe that the county lord will not wronged me as a little girl. Then he turned to the people of the whole Xiangmen and said, "You all do your duty, and you must not act rashly." I'll talk about everything when I get back. ”
Yanmei and Liang Furong glanced at each other and returned to the mansion with Xianglan.
Back at the Yamen, Yanmei imprisoned Xianglan, and then asked Furong, "The person was arrested, what should we do next?" ”
Fleur said slowly, "Let's lock her up for a few days." After the injured person has eaten the elixir and the injury has healed, we will make plans. ”
Liu Shui also said: "Looking at the expression of Xiangmen today, if you don't know that there is a large army behind, you may immediately rebel." ”
Fleur said, "How do I think Miss Feng has been acting particularly weirdly lately. There are a lot of things I don't understand. ”
Liu Shui said: "You are too careful, what is strange about her." ”
Furong said: "Look at the official silver and official grain, so many people have not found any clues, but she knows it easily." That day, she invited you to the Drunken Immortal Tower, and then the government was attacked. These things are too coincidental to make people suspicious. ”
Yanmei also continued: "It's really a bit of a problem for the girl to say this, but there is no evidence." Let's not think about it too much, just keep an eye on her. ”
Liu Shui thought about it before and after, and felt that what Furong said was reasonable, so he said: "Then we will pay more attention to it, but don't let her notice." ”
Fleur said, "Okay then. I'm thinking about it these days, too. ”
The elixir was indeed wonderful, and as soon as the injured person took it, he was cured in a few days. The skills of the three people, who are charming, exquisite, and clever, have recovered, and the strength of the government has doubled, and Du Dan and Peach Blossom have also recovered as before.
On the second day, Quan Xiangmen did not respond, but invited some well-known gentlemen to come to the Hou Mansion to listen, intercede, and beg the county lord to release Xianglan.
The county lord brought Furong and discussed countermeasures with Liu Shui.
Fleur asked everyone else to step back and said to the county lord and Liu Shui, "I have thought of a plan, but I have to keep it absolutely secret. Only the three of us can know about it, just in case it leaks. ”
Seeing that she was so cautious, Yanmei and Liu Shui naturally agreed.
It turned out that Fleur had set a trap and wanted the other party to get in. That is, it was announced to the public that it had been found that Xiao Xianglan had instructed his subordinates to attack the government office, and the crime was extremely heinous, and she was beheaded for public display two days later.
If the whole Xiangmen participated in the attack on the government office, they were naturally very nervous, and they were afraid that the government would take the opportunity to seal it up, and they were also afraid that the owner of the door would be killed, so they would find a way to rescue the owner of the door.
If they want to rescue, they can only do it in three places, one is to directly kill the government to save people, the second is to escort them to the court on the road, and the third is to do it in the law field. Then all it takes is to arrange everything and wait for them to fall into the net and force them to show their true form.
Yanmei asked again, "What if they don't show up in the end?" You can't really kill her, can you? ”
Fleur smiled: "Naturally not, we can make a fake knife out of paper, and after chopping it down, if they don't react, it won't kill people." At this time, a person was arranged to come and report that Master Assassin Shi had an order to postpone the execution and deal with it when he returned. It's over. I don't think they're going to take such a big risk, though. ”
After Furong finished speaking, Liu Shui and Gao Yanmei glanced at each other, looked at Furong and said, "You ghost girl, there are so many tricks." That's it. ”
On the same day, the government posted a notice that Xiao Xianglan, the main culprit of the rebellion, would be executed and beheaded at noon the day after tomorrow, so as to set an example. It was a sensation in the city.
At night, the moon shines brightly and the breeze comes. Liu Shui took peonies and peach blossoms to inspect the palace. In order to ensure safety, Furong asked the county lord to take Linglong and clever, Liu Shui to take peonies and peach blossoms, and Hongying to take chrysanthemums and plum blossoms to take turns to inspect. She also asked Chanjuan to take the four people in front of Gao to guard the secret room in case of accidents. He also asked the county lord to transfer heavy troops from Li Xin to guard around the mansion.
Furong wanted to follow Liu Shui by herself, but the county lord resolutely refused to let her. The county lord was very satisfied with Furong's careful arrangements and thorough aspects. The county lord asked Huanting to protect her and treated Furong as a baby.
In the middle of the night, the government was silent, with the occasional croaking of frogs. Suddenly, several black shadows flew in from outside the side wall, followed by the surrounding figures.
Liu Shui hurriedly asked Peony, Peach Blossom and others to ambush them first, and then surrounded them when they walked into the courtyard.
The group slowly moved to the courtyard and was about to pounce on the main hall. Liu Shui suddenly shouted, "Surround them." After shouting, Liu Shui jumped out and stood in front of the main hall, blocking the way of the man in black.
Liu Shui stood proudly and shouted: "You have been surrounded, quickly put down your blades and spare your lives." ”
The first two black-clothed masked men did not answer, and at the same time slashed with a knife, and Liu Shui greeted him with a sword. The rest of the black-clothed people attacked Peony and the others one after another, and suddenly the sound of swords and swords rang out, and the sound of killing rang out.
After Yanmei and Hongying inside heard it, they wanted to go out to help, and Furong hurriedly said: "County Lord and Sister Hongying, don't move yet, let's take a look first." There is a young master, and there is nothing to do for the time being. This should be the first temptation, and there will definitely be people to come. ”
Liu Shui's sword swung continuously, forcing the two black-clothed men to retreat non-stop. Peony and Peach Blossom teamed up to block another black-clothed man, while the guards fought with the rest of the black-clothed men.
The county lord saw it in the main hall and asked strangely, "Why didn't Brother Liu use his strongest kung fu to quickly solve the other party?" ”
Hongying said: "The county lord doesn't know, those few moves are extremely exhausting of internal strength, and his current skills have not yet reached the point of perfection. Therefore, those tricks can only be used occasionally, and cannot be used continuously. Otherwise, if there is a strong enemy in the future, it will be troublesome. ”
Yan Mei hurriedly asked, "Is there any way to improve his skills quickly?" ”
Fleur smacked her mouth at Hongying Nunu, meaning to ask Hongying. Hongying's face turned red, and she said coyly: "From now on, the enemy is now!" ”
At this time, Liu Shui brandished his sword, and the two men in black fought hard. Liu Shui was about to use a trick, when suddenly four figures jumped in from outside, attacking Liu Shui and the others respectively. The situation changed suddenly, and Furong hurriedly said, "Sister Hongying, go and help." ”
Hongying, chrysanthemums, and plum blossoms hurriedly jumped out of the hall, and guarded the entrance of the hall with exquisiteness and cleverness. Yanmei, Huanting and Furong sat in the main hall.
Hongying killed Liu Shui's side, blocked the two attackers, and teamed up with Liu Shui to block the four black-clothed people who were the leaders. Chrysanthemum and plum blossom have also exchanged hands with the two black clothes.
Seeing that the fight was in a stalemate, Hong Ying shouted to Liu Shui: "Two swords combined!" When Liu Shui heard this, he hurriedly turned the sword into a colorful sword technique, and suddenly the sword qi overflowed, and Hong Ying also flew up at the same time, and also unfolded a colorful sword technique.
Their two swords were combined, and the power was really huge, forcing the four of them back together, and stabbing them in the arms at the same time, and the big swords fell to the ground. The veils of the four people were also pierced by the sword qi and fell to the ground.
Liu Shui saw that it was Wang Xiang, Wang Jiang, Hu Hai and others from Quanxiangmen. It seems that after Hu Hai was captured, he took refuge in Quanxiangmen.
Liu Shui shouted: "Sure enough, it's you, it's time to settle the ledger today." ”
Liu Shui and Hongying had the same mind, and attacked up and down at the same time, and the four of them joined forces to protect them. With a coquettish shout, Hong Ying had already stabbed Wang Jiang in the shoulder with a sword, and Liu Shui also hit Hu Hai with a palm.
The four of them were startled and flew back. Liu Shui and Hongying caught up with the situation and were about to kill the killer. Suddenly, two forces struck from both sides. Liu Shui and Hongying could only stop the pursuit and meet the enemies attacking from the left and right.
It turned out that the four of them bandaged a little, two of them attacked desperately, and the other two rushed towards Peach Blossom. At the same time, four more figures flew into the wall, heading straight for the main hall.
Seeing this, Linglong and clever immediately jumped out of the palace to fight. The six people were killed together, and the skills of the four were not weak, and they practiced the four-way joint attack array, and they were inseparable from Linglong and Lingli.
As soon as Linglong and Lingli left the main hall, two more black-clothed people rushed to the main hall. These people were obviously very familiar with the government and knew that Xiao Xianglan was locked up in the secret room under the main hall.
Yanmei and Huanting greeted each other with swords, and the four of them fought in the palace again. The two of them who rushed into the hall were obviously strong, so that the person with the sword actually went back and forth with Yanmei, and they were on an equal footing. The other one and Huanting are also half a catty and eight taels, which can be compared.
For a time, there was a stalemate on both sides. Liu Shui was in a hurry, not knowing if the other party still had a helping hand. He was about to be ruthless, but then he heard a coquettish shout: "Stop!" ”
Everyone saw that on the roof of the house, Xiao Xianglan grabbed Rudan's shoulder with one hand, and held a sword across Rudan's throat with the other.
There were also two slender black-clothed masked women beside Xianglan. It seems that these two people rescued Xianglan from the secret room and ran to catch Rudan.
Liu Shui was shocked and hurriedly shouted, "Everyone stop." ”
Both sides stopped, and the two who rushed into the main hall also flew out, and the two sides were divided into left and right.
Yanmei and Hongying were separated on either side of Liu Shui, and Liu Shui said, "Master Xiao, what do you want?" ”
Xiao Xianglan said: "You get out of the way, let us withdraw, and restrain the officers and soldiers outside from blocking and pursuing." ”
Liu Shui and Yanmei glanced at each other and were about to speak. Fleur stood up and said, "We can let you go, but what guarantee do you have that you won't hurt Miss Rudan?" ”
Xiao Xianglan said fiercely: "You, you have disrupted my plan. Sooner or later, I will catch you and kill you alive to quench the hatred in my heart. I'm not interested in this girl. Get out of the way, and we'll let her go when we're out of here. ”
Liu Shui hurriedly said to Yanmei: "The county lord ordered, it's important to save people." Since they have revealed their original form, they naturally can't run. ”
Yan Mei had no choice but to order her to be released.
Xianglan held Rudan and slowly retreated with everyone in Xiangmen. When I arrived at the bank of the Xiangjiang River, I saw that someone had already arranged a boat.
Liu Shui smiled bitterly, exactly the same as his original arrangement for robbing the Dharma Field.
After Xianglan got on the boat, she pushed Rudan, and Rudan staggered to the ground.
Xianglan waved her hand, and the boat headed straight for the opposite shore like an arrow from a string.
Two people rushed out here to help Rudan, but it was licorice and peony.
Liu Shui hurriedly went over and asked, "Sister Rudan, are you okay?" ”
If Dan didn't answer, Liu Shui looked at it, but the acupoint was sealed, and he hurriedly untied it.
Rudan was stunned and said slowly: "Thank you, big brother." ”
When everyone returned to the Hou Mansion, Fleur was furious, and the good plan almost succeeded, but it was destroyed for no reason.
Yanmei asked the injured Chanjuan: "Chanjuan, what's wrong with the secret room?" ”
Chanjuan told everyone that she could hear the fight outside and was more vigilant. Unexpectedly, two figures suddenly rushed in, waved their hands continuously, and the four people in front of Gao fell to the ground in an instant. Fortunately, Chanjuan's eyes were sharp, and when she saw the cold light flashing, it was estimated that it was a hidden weapon, so she jumped to dodge, but she still hit a few.
Chanjuan tried her best to intercept, but the opponent's martial arts were not under her. One person is entangled with the maid Chanjuan, and the other has rescued the master. Then the man in black fled outside, and no one among the guards could stop him.
When Chanjuan wanted to catch up again, a cold light hit. Chanjuan had to flip back to avoid it, allowing the other party to escape. Who knew that they actually went to kidnap Miss Rudan, which was completely unexpected here.
Yan Mei hesitated for a moment and said, "The other party is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, unfathomable. Chanjuan's kung fu can deal with first-class masters, but she didn't expect to be defeated by these hidden weapons. In the future, when you encounter these two people, you must be extra careful. ”
Yanmei said to Fleur again: "Sister, what do you think now? ”
Fleur thought for a moment and said, "County Lord, I haven't thought about it for a while. However, they were finally forced to show their true form. Open guns are easy to dodge, but hidden arrows are difficult to defend. Now it is possible to explicitly order the seizure of the whole Xiangmen and arrest the most wanted criminals. The whole city is on alert to track down the whereabouts of these men. ”
Yanmei nodded, and immediately arranged for someone to implement it. Then she said to Furong: "This time Xiao Xianglan hates you even more, and in the future, you must not leave the mansion at will, but by Liu Shaoxia or me." I'll let Grace protect you. ”
Fleur hurriedly said, "Then thank you to the county lord." She then winked at Liu Shui and Yan Mei. Yanmei understood that she had something else to say, and asked everyone to step down, leaving only Liu Shui, Yanmei and Furong. Liu Shui said: "Sister, did you think of something?" ”
Fleur hesitated for a moment and said slowly, "We have spies here. ”
Yanmei and Liu Shui were shocked, and asked in unison, "Where does this start?" ”
Furong said with a serious expression: "Think about it, that Xiao Xianglan is imprisoned in the secret room, and only a few people in the mansion know about it. How could they find the Chamber of Secrets so easily? And Miss Rudan's residence was not known to many people, and they took her hostage just as easily. ”
When Furong said this, Liu Shui and the others also felt that it was indeed strange. Liu Shui asked, "Then who do you think it is?" You don't think it's Li Feng again, do you? ”
Fleur sighed and said, "I haven't figured it out yet, it shouldn't be her this time." The young lady has always been suspicious of the county lord, and rarely comes here, so she is naturally not familiar with the situation of the mansion. But the people in the government, I didn't find anyone suspicious. If there is such a person, then the problem is serious, and if he secretly poisons it, it will be bad. ”
