The more Lu Fan looked at it, the more frightened he became.

How could such an important map be in the hands of the Bloody Clothes?

Don't......

He had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Do you know how this map got to that man?"

Lu Fan calmed down instantly and made an analysis, this map is so important, that person should keep it well, it shouldn't be put on his body.

What's more, that man is just a deacon, not a helmsman, how can such an important map be on a deacon?

Then there are two possibilities.

The first is that this person has just received the map, and he has not had time to hand it over to the helmsman.

There is also a possibility that the helmsman gave the map to the deacon to pass it on to someone else, who had not yet had time to hand it over.

On the trade-off, the first one is the most likely.

Because the Bloody Clothes Gang is located in Zhennan Pass, if at the critical moment of the battle situation, according to the important places marked on the map, create chaos in the city, it will definitely cause great trouble to the Zhennan army.

Moreover, it will cause panic and even riots among the people of the city.

As long as there is chaos in the city, the morale of the Zhennan army will definitely be affected, which will lead to the defeat of the battle.

If this is true, then there is a good chance that the Bloody Clothes have been bought by the enemy.

It should be the state of Chu.

Lu Fan quickly sorted out the relationship.

After all, a few months ago, the state of Chu and its allied forces were powerful, and the Great Zhou was in danger.

A gang like the Bloodcoat Gang is very likely to leave a way out for itself.

It makes perfect sense to take a risk.

If Zhennan Pass is captured, they will not only be able to save themselves, but will also receive credit for doing internal response.

In the future, the state of Chu will naturally not treat them badly.

They can still be powerful.

Of course, it is also possible that Tang Xuanwan deliberately framed Tang Xuanwan in order to deal with the Bloody Clothes Gang.

But this is unlikely.

Let's not talk about whether this little girl has the scheming and means, but this map is not available to ordinary people.

And it's not necessary.

In case of a goof, Tang Suiwan will not be able to end up in the future.

"I didn't see it."

Tang Qiuwan shook her head, "Maybe it's always been on him, right?" ”

"Didn't you follow him all the time?"

Lu Fan's heart moved, and he asked, "Tell me, where has he gone?" How long did you stay? Who have you seen? ”

"Okay, I'll start with you."

Tang Qiuwan lowered his head and thought for a while, and said: "He first went to Pear Flower Garden to listen to the play, then went to the Zuifeng Building to drink, and finally went to the Liuxiang Pavilion, where he stayed late at night before coming out. As for who he has seen, I don't dare to follow too closely, I really don't know. ”

"Lingering Fragrance Pavilion?"

Lu Fan remembered, isn't that a hook bar?

The top brand there is called Liu Dai, who is Xu Zhao's sweetheart.

What a coincidence.

Pear Flower Garden, Zuifeng Building, Liuxiang Pavilion, these three places, you have to check them carefully.

Among them, Liuxiang Pavilion is the most suspicious, because that person has been in Liuxiang Pavilion for the longest time, and it is the last place to go.

If Lu Fan's speculation is true, Liuxiang Pavilion is likely to be an intelligence point in the Chu State.

All the people in the Liuxiang Pavilion are suspected of being spies of the Chu State.

Naturally, Liu Dai is also included.

This matter is quite complicated, and it may even involve Xu Zhao.

"What you told me today is very important."

Lu Fan instructed: "You must not tell anyone. ”

"Of course not."

Tang Suiwan was very happy, "This map is really useful to you, so I didn't work in vain." ”

"I'll give you the credit."

Lu Fan smiled: "After this matter is settled, your benefits are indispensable." ”

"Huh?"

Tang Yuwan hurriedly waved her hand, "I don't want your benefits, I just want to help you, after all, you have helped me so much and given me the opportunity to cultivate, I am very grateful to you." ”

"Two different things."

Lu Fan interrupted the other party and said, "You are not only helping me, but also helping the Zhennan Army, so the benefits will naturally be given to you by the Zhennan Army, you can just accept it with peace of mind, and you don't have to refuse." ”

"Okay."

Tang Suiwan nodded happily, and then said: "It's a pity that I'm not a man, otherwise I would have joined the army, followed you to fight on the battlefield, and killed the enemy for meritorious service!" ”

"What about my daughter?"

Lu Fan smiled, "If you really want to, you can serve the imperial court." ”

"Really?"

Tang Xuanwan was overjoyed, because she was too excited, her face turned red, "Can I really do it?" ”

"Of course."

Lu Fan nodded slightly, "Now is the time to employ people, and your skills are good, the most important thing is that no one knows that you have cultivated, and no one would have thought that you would work for me." So, no one will suspect you. ”

"What do you want me to do for you?"

The excitement on Tang Suiwan's face has not faded, "No matter whether I can do it or not, I will do my best." ”

"Let's start with the eyeliner."

Lu Fan said: "You are still in the bun shop, help me find out the news, if you encounter a suspicious person or something, tell Su Mu, and I will let Su Mu contact you." ”

"Okay."

Tang Xuanwan happily agreed.

"As for your payment, you will definitely be indispensable."

Lu Fan thought for a while and said, "Every time you provide useful information, there will be an additional reward. ”

"Okay."

Tang Xuanwan did not refuse this time.

"Alright, there you go."

Lu Fan instructed: "You can't tell anyone about this, including your father." ”

"I know."

Tang Suiwan knows very well in her heart, like her identity, the less people know, the better.

Although her father can't talk nonsense, he may inadvertently reveal something.

After all, she is helping Lu Fan do things, and her identity is very different from now on, if she lets her father know, she will definitely feel that her face is bright.

That pride and self-satisfaction will inevitably be revealed, and it will inevitably arouse the suspicion of those who have a heart.

Therefore, she can only wait for the future to tell her father the good news.

Surely my father must have been very happy at that time, right?

Will even be proud of her.

After all, she was really changing her fate.

And she did!

In the future, as long as she follows Lu Fan to do things, she will have a worry-free future.

She was convinced of this.

"Su Mu."

Lu Fan knew that Su Mu was waiting outside, so he shouted.

"Here we are."

Su Mu trotted in.

"From today onwards, Tang Xuanwan will be our eyeliner."

Lu Fan instructed: "Only you know about this matter, don't disclose it to anyone." ”

"Yes."

Su Mu said loudly.

"In the future, you will be responsible for contacting Tang Xuanwan and delivering the news."

Lu Fan said: "You send Tang Suiwan out of the barracks, you two can communicate on the way, how to meet, how to pass the news, you can discuss." ”

"Okay."

Su Mu and Tang Suiwan retired together.

Lu Fan suddenly remembered something again, and shouted behind Su Mu: "By the way, you can find Qin Yu for me again." ”

"Yes."

Su Mu agreed and left side by side with Tang Suiwan.

It didn't take long for Qin Yu to knock on the door and come in, "My lord, you are looking for me." ”

Lu Fan stretched out his hand and signaled, "Sit down, I have something to explain to you." ”

"Master Xie."

Qin Yu sat down opposite Lu Fan.

Lu Fan groaned for a moment and asked, "Do you remember the three people who died in the Bloody Clothes Gang a few months ago?" ”

"Yes."

Qin Yu nodded, "I remember that it was a few little minions who died. ”

"That's not right."

Lu Fan corrected: "One of them is a deacon of the Bloody Clothes Gang. ”

"It's a big boss?"

Qin Yu was stunned and said, "But the news was released by the Bloody Clothes Gang, why did they hide this person's identity?" ”

"It means that the Bloody Clothes have ghosts in their hearts."

Lu Fan frowned slightly, "You go and help me verify this matter, first confirm the identity of this person, and then check what places he went to before he died, and who he met?" ”

"Also, don't alarm anyone about this, and don't let anyone know about it."

After a pause, Lu Fan continued: "As long as the people who have been in contact with him that day, they must be monitored and thoroughly investigated, no matter who they are." ”

"Yes."

Qin Yu replied loudly: "My lord, please rest assured, just leave this matter to me." ”

"By the way, how is Xu Zhao doing?"

Lu Fan asked, "Has there been any progress in the relationship between him and Liu Dai?" ”

"Xu Zhao is still like that, but ......"

Qin Yu suddenly changed his words and said, "That Liu Dai girl seems to be gone, I heard that she left the Liuxiang Pavilion a few months ago. ”

"Gone?"

Lu Fan's heart sank, and he was stunned: "Where did she go?" ”

"It is said that she had saved enough money to redeem herself and find a place to live in seclusion."

Qin Yu thought for a while and said, "As for where she went, no one really knows. ”

"Okay, I see."

Lu Fan nodded slightly, "You go and get busy, and call Song Yu by the way." ”

"Yes."

Qin Yu got up and left.

Lu Fan fell into deep thought, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Liu Dai was suspicious.

How else could it be so coincidental?

Why did you choose to leave Zhennanguan at this time?

Are you afraid that things will be revealed?

Coupled with Liu Dai's top brand identity, it is indeed very suitable for eyeliner.

It seems that this person is the most suspicious.

Lu Fan was thinking about it, when Song Yu knocked on the door and came in, "My lord, you are looking for me." ”

"Come, sit down and talk."

"Okay."

After Song Yu sat down, Lu Fan said, "You give me a secret eye on the Bloody Clothes Gang, especially their helmsman, to see if he has any suspicious actions recently?" If so, let me know as soon as possible. ”

"Yes, sir."

Song Yu agreed and said, "The Bloody Clothes Gang was very rampant some time ago, and it has long caused public resentment, but they have reined in a lot recently, maybe they have been beaten by some big people, right?" ”

"yes, I know."

Lu Fan understood that Song Yu wanted to remind him that the Bloody Clothes Gang had a backstage, and the backstage was not small.

"You just know about it, don't tell anyone, and remember to be careful not to startle the snake. Okay, there you go. ”

"Yes."

Song Yu got up and left.

Lu Fan also stood up, put away the map, and walked out.

He was going to see Zhao Fei.

No matter who the backstage of the Bloody Clothes Gang is, once it is confirmed that the Bloody Clothes Gang is doing things for the Chu State, he will act mercilessly.

Before that, he wanted to say hello to Zhao Fei.

After all, Zhao Fei is the commander of the Zhennan Army, and out of respect, he still has to say it.

As for Zhao Fei, could it be the backstage of the Bloody Clothes Gang?

Of course it's possible.

But Lu Fan believes that even if Zhao Fei is the backstage of the Bloody Clothes Gang, he is just to make some benefits, and it is impossible for him to be dragged into the water by the Bloody Clothes Gang to do things for the Chu State.

If that were the case, Zhennan Pass would have been lost.

And it's not necessary.

Zhao Fei's identity and status in the Great Zhou can be regarded as extremely noble, and the Zhao family is even more entrenched in the Great Zhou.

There is no need to risk treason and collude with the people of Chu.

Unless after the Great Zhou is destroyed, the Zhao family has the ability to replace the imperial family and take charge of the Great Zhou.

But the Zhao family doesn't have that kind of strength.

The entire Great Zhou family can find several families that are stronger than the Zhao family, such as the Liu family, and then the Ye family, the Wu family, and so on.

If the Zhao family is in power, these super families will definitely not be convinced.

It is impossible to sit on the throne.

Lu Fan thought as he walked, and soon came to the Commander's Mansion.

After the briefing, Lu Fan was invited into the living room.

"Lord Lu, please take a seat."

Zhao Fei greeted him with a smile and beckoned Lu Fan to sit down.

Then he personally poured a cup of tea and handed it to Lu Fan, "Please drink tea." ”

"Your Excellency, you're welcome."

The two exchanged a few words, and Lu Fan glanced at Zhao Fei.

Zhao Fei understood and sent everyone back, leaving only him and the two of them in the living room.

"Your Excellency, please take a look."

Lu Fan took out the map and handed it to Zhao Fei.

Zhao Fei unfolded it and looked at it, and his face suddenly changed, "Where did this come from?" ”

"It was recovered from one of the leaders of the Bloody Clothes."

Lu Fan said truthfully.

"Huh?"

Zhao Fei frowned and shouted angrily, "Bloody Gang? What a guts! ”

He certainly knows what that means.

"Lord Lu, what are you going to do?"

"I've sent someone to investigate."

Lu Fan didn't hide his thoughts, "When I get the evidence and can prove that the Bloody Clothes Gang has colluded with enemy forces, I will take action mercilessly." ”

"Yes, it's better to take this opportunity to completely eradicate the Bloody Clothes Gang!"

Zhao Fei said: "You just have to let it go, and at this critical moment of life and death, you must not show mercy." ”

"Hmm."

Lu Fan nodded and said tentatively: "I heard that the Bloody Clothes Gang has the support of our Zhennan Army leaders behind them?" ”

"I know that."

Zhao Fei admitted very calmly, "You just leave it to me, and I will take care of it." However, I hope you can understand that now that Da Zhou is the time to employ people, we cannot fight each other internally, but must be consistent with the outside. ”

"Okay."

Lu Fan naturally understands that now is not the time to pursue it.

If it is really investigated, I am afraid that many people will be involved, and it will involve the high-level of the Zhennan Army.

It's okay in peacetime, but now it's wartime.

If the movement is too big, the entire Zhennan Army will be affected.

thus affecting the battle situation of the entire Great Zhou.

The risk is too great.

"Nothing else, I'll go back."

Lu Fan folded the map, put it in his arms, and got up to say goodbye.

"I'll send you."

Zhao Fei got up to send him off, and sent him out of the Commander's Mansion, he patted Lu Fan on the shoulder, "Lord Lu, as long as you get the evidence, you can handle it yourself, don't run to me anymore, I believe you can handle it." ”

"Okay, farewell."

Lu Fan said goodbye and left.

With Zhao Fei's statement, he no longer had any worries.

Do it!

Eradicate the Bloodcoats.

Regardless of whether the Bloody Clothes collaborate with the enemy or not, just by what they usually do, they deserve to die!

Therefore, Lu Fan has made up his mind, even if there is no evidence, he will exterminate the Bloody Clothes Gang and return the people to a clean house.

Moreover, in the future, Zhennanguan will not allow any gangs to exist.

Otherwise, he will see one and destroy another.

……

……

Ten days later.

On the fifth day of August, in the evening.

The Dragon Shadow Guards quietly assembled outside the barracks.

Lu Fan and Ye Wuchen stood side by side opposite everyone, their eyes swept over the faces of the dragon shadow guards one by one.

After experiencing the battle on the battlefield, today's mission couldn't be easier for them.

"Tonight's mission is to exterminate the Bloody Clothes Gang!"

Lu Fan said: "Only their helmsman is left for inquiry." The rest of the gang, not a single one remains! ”

"Yes!"

The crowd shouted yes.

"Let's go!"

Lu Fan gave an order, and the dragon shadows turned around and disappeared into the vast night.

Neither he nor Ye Wuchen went.

Not necessarily.

After two years of training, Long Yingwei's strength has long been different, and it is more than enough to deal with a bloody gang rudder.

Even if only one Song Xiucheng is sent, it can be done.

Of course, for the sake of safety, Lu Fan sent out all the Dragon Shadow Guards.

Just let everyone get a little bit of the credit.

"Is it really Liu Dai?"

Ye Wuchen put his hands behind his back and looked at the square where Langui Street was located.

"It should be her."

Lu Fan nodded, "She was the only one who had contact with Tian Li alone that day, and the two of them had been alone for a long time. ”

Qin Yu had already found out the identity of the leader of the Bloodclothes Gang, who was the deacon of the Bloodclothes Gang, named Tian Li.

"Hidden deep enough."

Ye Wuchen thought of Xu Zhao and asked, "Does Xu Zhao know about this?" ”

"I didn't tell him."

Lu Fan said: "Anyway, Liu Dai is also gone, and it is impossible to come to Xu Zhao again in the future." Just think of it as a passerby in his life, now he has matured a lot, and he should be able to figure it out. ”

"yes, he can be hit less that way."

Ye Wuchen agreed, "But anyway, the appearance of Liu Dai gave Xu Zhao the motivation to become stronger, and he did it." ”

"Hmm."

Lu Fan said with a smile: "In this regard, Liu Dai indirectly helped Xu Zhao, which can be regarded as a good deed." ”

"That's fate."

Ye Wuchen felt something and said, "Just like we met you, it also changed our fate. ”

The two did not go back, but stood outside the barracks, chatting.

They were waiting for the action to begin.

Half an hour later.

Shouts of killing were heard in the distance.

The flames were blazing into the sky, and the screams were repeated.

The whole border city was shaken.

On this night, rivers of blood flowed.

The rudder of the Bloody Clothes Gang is washed in blood!

Except for Liang Dong, the main rudder, who was captured alive, all the others were exterminated.

As dawn approached, the dragon shadow guards returned with a full load.

Countless gold, silver, jewelry, silk and satin, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, as well as weapons, horses, all kinds of grain, fine wine, etc., were enough to carry hundreds of carriages.

Qin Yu twisted a middle-aged man in front of Lu Fan and said, "My lord, he is Liang Dong, the helmsman of the Bloody Clothes Gang. ”

Lu Fan looked at it a few times, only to see that his face was full of fear and despair.

"My lord, you have been wronged!"

Liang Dong recognized Lu Fan and begged: "Please let me go, I haven't done anything." ”

"Take it down and ask carefully."

Lu Fan waved his hand, "If he is willing to say it, give him a chance to live, if he doesn't say it, kill him directly, it's useless to keep it anyway." ”

"Yes."

Qin Yu took Liang Dong down.

"I don't think this person is that tough."

Ye Wuchen said: "Maybe I can really ask something from his mouth." ”

"That's right."

Lu Fan said with a smile: "I deliberately scared him just now, if he wants to live, he will definitely speak." ”

"Let's go, we should go back too."

As Ye Wuchen spoke, he turned around and walked towards the barracks.

"Hmm."

Lu Fan followed behind Ye Wuchen, and his mood was extremely relaxed.

The Bloody Clothes Gang is like a thorn, it has been stuck in Lu Fan's heart for a long time, and today it was finally removed, and his heart was extremely happy.

Even the mood has become much more transparent.

……

……

The next day, the news that the Bloody Clothes Gang was exterminated by the Dragon Shadow Guard quickly spread throughout Zhennan Pass.

The people all clapped their hands and applauded.

On the streets, in the alleys, in their own yards, in various yamen, and even in the barracks, almost all of them were talking about this matter.

"Have you heard? Last night, Long Yingwei personally went out and completely wiped out the Bloody Clothes Gang, leaving no one behind. ”

"Of course, how can such a big thing be hidden from me."

"It's a pleasure."

"It's so relieving."

"These brutes should have died a long time ago."

"I have done all the bad things and lost all my conscience."

"It's better to be Lord Lu, and the last gang in Zhennanguan has been eliminated."

"There shouldn't be any gang that dares to come back in the future, right?"

"I hope so."

Lan Kwai Street, Bakery.

Cailian and Xiaoyu sold out of baked cakes and are cleaning up the stall.

"Mother, the Bloody Clothes Gang was wiped out by the Dragon Shadow Guard, will we be better in the future?"

"Silly girl, my mother told you a long time ago, there is no Black Tiger Gang and the Bloody Clothes Gang. This time, even if the Bloodclothes are gone, there will be other gangs. ”

"I think this time is different."

Xiao Yu retorted: "Today's Long Yingwei is not the original, if Lord Lu Fan makes up his mind to rectify these gangs, who would dare to come?" ”

"Do you know that the Dragon Shadow Guard is not as good as it was at the beginning?"

Cailian suddenly became a little angry and glared at her daughter, "How good would it be if you married Su Mu at the beginning?" Today's Dragon Shadow Guards are great heroes praised by everyone! ”

"You follow Su Mu, who would dare to bully you?"

"When the people from the Bloody Clothes Gang came before, we also mentioned Su Mu's name, so the other party didn't dare to do anything to us."

"After all, the relationship between Su Mu and Lu Fan is known to many people."

"You're so stupid."

As soon as Cailian thought about it, she felt remorseful, and couldn't help complaining: "If you don't agree to a good marriage, it's okay now, even if you regret it, it's too late." ”

Xiao Yu bit her lip tightly and didn't say a word.

Stubbornness is written all over the face.

Regret it?

Perhaps.

But if she had said yes then, she would still regret it now.

What you can't get is the best.

If her heart does not know contentment, whatever she chooses, it is wrong.

"Alas!"

Xiao Yu let out a long sigh, full of melancholy.

She is unwilling to be an ordinary person, but she can't break free.

Steamed bun shop at this time.

Tang Qiuwan ran into the store with a smile on her face and shouted loudly: "Dad, good news, great news!" ”

"What are you yelling about, little girl?"

Tang Rongxing glared at his daughter, "I've been crazy all day long, and I don't have a proper shape." ”

"Dad, the Bloody Clothes Gang was wiped out by the Dragon Shadow Guard."

Tang Suiwan smiled: "We don't have to be bullied in the future." ”

"What?"

Tang Rongxing was stunned, standing there stupidly, and didn't say anything for a long time.

After a long time, he finally came back to his senses and muttered, "God opens his eyes, God opens his eyes!" ”

"What god is opening your eyes?"

Tang Xuanwan pouted dissatisfiedly, "Dad, that's Lu Fan who is eliminating harm for the people." ”

"Yes, Lu Fan."

Tang Rongxing's dull eyes instantly brightened, "He is a child of our poor family, and he can best understand how hard our ordinary people's lives are." Only he can really help us people, think about us, and be our great benefactor. ”

"yes."

Tang Xuanwan was even happier and said tentatively: "Dad, if one day, I can work for Lu Fan, how good would it be?" ”

"It's unthinkable."

Tang Rongxing raised his head and looked at his daughter, "If you are really fortunate enough to serve Lord Lu, it is a great thing to honor your ancestors." ”

"Dad, just wait."

Tang Qiuwan smiled playfully, "Maybe one day?" ”

"You kid."

Tang Rongxing looked at his daughter's eyes, and he became more and more spoiled.

He used to think a lot, how nice would it be if Wan'er were a boy?

But now, he suddenly thinks that maybe his daughter will be able to make a career in the future?
