Chapter 54: Soldiers Descend on the City

At this moment, it was just getting dark outside, who would run to the inn to find Ye Feng so early?

Could it be that something happened to the Qinglong Dart Bureau?

Ye Feng's heart tightened, and he turned his head to look at Lord Zhou, and saw that he was also puzzled.

Before he could speak, he saw a person rushing into the outside of the inn, and he couldn't wait for the communication, and ran straight towards the inn lobby.

Ye Feng fixed his eyes and saw that this person was very angry and didn't know him, but he was wearing military clothes, and it seemed that he should have nothing to do with the Qinglong Dart Bureau, so he secretly eased up in his heart.

This one rushed over, saw Ye Feng, gave a salute first, and then saw Lord Zhou on the side, so he saluted again: "It turns out that the prefect is also here, this is good, the villain is still going to go to the mansion to find the adult later." ”

Lord Zhou knew the person in front of him, and knew that he was one of several guards under Ma Jing, the Lanzhou Prison Army, and that something big must have happened if he was in such a hurry, so he asked in a deep voice: "What did the Ma Prison Army send you to find out what we were doing?"

Only then did Ye Feng know that this person was Ma Jing's subordinate, and he also looked at him strangely.

There was obviously a trace of anxiety in the guard's words: "Lord Ma ordered the villain to find the two as soon as possible no matter what, please go to Lord Ma's mansion to meet each other quickly, and discuss important matters." ”

Ye Feng had doubts in his heart, at this time, Ma Jing was so eager to see him, and even Lord Zhou, the prefect of Lanzhou, it seemed that this matter would not be small.

Could it be that it has something to do with his poisoning case?

Lord Zhou also asked at this time: "Ma Jianjun is in such a hurry, what is the important matter?"

The guard looked embarrassed and responded: "This, the villain is really inconvenient to say, the two of you will naturally understand when you see Master Ma when you go to the house." ”

Ye Feng and Zhou Ziran couldn't help but glance at each other suspiciously, what could it be that they wanted to be so mysterious?

Tang Yu, who had been standing silently behind Ye Feng, stood forward at this time and said to Ye Feng, "I'll go with you." ”

He was still worried about Ye Feng's safety, after all, Donghai Yu and the gang of evil lamas had just retreated, and Guan Si was on the run, and now it was really not very peaceful outside.

The hesitation on the guard's face was even heavier at this time, and he said with some stumbling: "This, Master Ma strictly ordered that he could only invite Ye Gongzi and the prefect to go, as for this son, he ......."

At this moment, even Tang Yu changed color, looking at this guard with doubts, I don't know what he meant by saying this, what the hell is this Ma Jing doing?

Or Lord Zhou hurriedly came out to play the round: "Tang Gongzi don't have to worry, there is this mansion to accompany Ye Gongzi to go together, do you still have anything to worry about?"

Tang Yu was right when he thought about it, just now he had already heard Zhou Ziran say that he was ordered by his master to protect Ye Feng's safety, and with the kung fu he showed when he was repelling the strong enemy just now, his martial arts should definitely be above Tang Yu.

It was expected that with him by his side, Ye Feng would not be in any danger. Tang Yu relieved his heart a little and didn't say anything anymore.

Seeing this, the guard looked happy, bowed to Ye Feng and Lord Zhou, and said, "The carriage has been prepared outside the door, please come with the villain." ”

Lord Zhou nodded slightly at Ye Feng, Ye Feng thought to himself, no matter what, only when he saw Ma Jing could he know what kind of medicine he was selling in this gourd.

At least, Ma Jing shouldn't have any ill will towards Ye Feng.

So the two of them followed the guard out of the inn and into the carriage that had been prepared in front of the door.

Seeing the carriage go away, Tang Yu was still a little uneasy, and turned back to the in a hurry

After a few words, he turned around and hurriedly ran in the direction of the Qinglong Dart Bureau.

Right now, he wanted to quickly inform Tang Da of Ye Feng's situation, and he had a feeling in his heart that what Ye Feng and the others did when they rushed to Ma Jing's Mansion this time must be another big trouble.

The inn and Ma Jing's mansion were not too far away, and they arrived quickly.

When Ye Feng and Lord Zhou walked in, they saw that Ma Jing was already standing in front of the door of the hall waiting for them.

Ma Jing's face was full of anxiety and worry, and when he saw Ye Feng and them walking in, he couldn't help but greet them.

Ye Feng knew that something big must have happened, and without waiting for Ma Jing to speak, he preemptively asked, "Master Ma, what happened?"

Ma Jing's face sank like water, and he asked in a heavy tone: "Ye Gongzi, do you still remember, I told you before that Song Hu, the little marquis of Xining, came to Lanzhou with 20,000 iron horsemen on the starry night?"

Ye Feng nodded, of course he remembered.

It was precisely because of Ma Jing's previous lament that "there is no time" that Ye Feng would seize the time so much and quickly investigate the serial murder case of the Qinglong Dart Bureau, in order to free up his hands and wholeheartedly find out the truth of Ma Jing's poisoning case, so as to prevent Lanzhou City from falling into war.

Ma Jing's face was extremely ugly at this time, and he sighed and said: "The soldiers patrolling the city wall just now came to report that the little marquis had 20,000 iron horsemen, and they had arrived!"

What the?

Ye Feng and Lord Zhou's eyes widened in shock.

From Liangzhou to Lanzhou City, under normal circumstances, it would take at least two full days, Ye Feng privately calculated, from the time Ma Jing received Song Hu's message, it was only one day and one night now, and he should have at least a whole day to investigate the case of Ma Jing's poisoning.

But he never imagined that Song Hu and the 20,000 iron cavalry led by him had already arrived!

Ye Feng also understood at this time why the guard in the inn just now refused to tell what had happened, the military disaster was coming, once this news leaked, it would cause panic in the city, and he was afraid that the situation would become more difficult to manage.

Lord Zhou's face also showed an anxious look, and he asked, "Is the news true? Where are they now?"

Ma Jing sighed and said: "Now these 20,000 iron cavalry have set up camp outside the four gates of Lanzhou City, and have surrounded the camp of 10,000 black armor guards stationed outside the city. ”

Lord Zhou didn't know what was analyzed between Ma Jing and Ye Feng before, and asked with some surprise: "Siege the city?"

At this time, a loud voice came from the door: "I'm afraid he's only coming for this king!"

The three of them were all startled, looked up, and strode in from the door A tall figure, dressed in brocade and jade belts, was imposing, and the guards at the gate of Mafu didn't dare to stop them, and they knelt on the ground one after another, it was Su Wang Zhu!

Why is His Royal Highness King Su here?

The three of them couldn't help muttering in their hearts, but they all knelt down to worship.

Su Wang Zhu strode into the hall, waved his hand to signal everyone to be polite, and said to Ma Jing: "Ma Jianjun, even if this king had some misunderstandings with you before, and such a major thing happened, why didn't you come to inform this king first?"

Ma Jing hurriedly bowed down and replied: "The lower official has just received a report from the sergeant, so he hurriedly invited Ye Gongzi and the prefect Zhou to come to discuss countermeasures, and prepare to discuss a good way to show the prince again, it is definitely not intentional to deceive, the prince is clear!"

Su Wang Zhu nodded and said: "This king naturally believes that Ma Jian Jun will never intentionally deceive, let alone conspire with Song Hu, otherwise he will not ask Ye Gongzi to secretly investigate Ma Jian Junzhong."

The truth of the drug case is here. ”

Only then did Ma Jing know that His Royal Highness King Su had also privately asked Ye Feng to investigate the case, and he couldn't help but look back at Ye Feng with some surprise.

Ye Feng smiled at Ma Jing a little apologetically, shrugged his shoulders, he was also helpless, the prince's secret trust, how could he say it to Ma Jing?

Besides, you, Ma Jing, never asked him?

Su Wang Zhu looked at Ye Feng and said, "Ye Gongzi has just solved the murder case of the Guan family of the Qinglong Dart Bureau with Lord Zhou, and this king already knows about it. It seems that Ye Gongzi is really as wise as a torch and has a lot of talent, but I don't know if he has some eyebrows about what this king has entrusted him with?"

Ye Feng was stunned, how to answer?

Could it be that he has been busy investigating the murder of the Guan family, and has not started the investigation of the poisoning case, and now he has found nothing?

I'm afraid it's unreasonable to answer the prince like this, how to answer?

Ye Feng's mind was thinking quickly, his eyes were rolling around, and unintentionally, his eyes swept to a few of Ma Jing's personal guards standing in the courtyard, and he suddenly seemed to have a flash of inspiration.

He looked up at Ma Jing and asked, "What about the guard who drove the carriage when we met last time, why didn't you see him all the time?" Master Ma seems to have special trust in him, why did such a big thing happen tonight, and instead of letting him come to look for me and Lord Zhou, he sent a new face I didn't know?"

Ma Jing seemed to be a little confused, and didn't understand why he suddenly asked about this guard: "He is the captain of the guard beside me, and he has been following me since Jingzhong, and he is loyal, so I entrust many things to him." ”

"Originally, he should have been sent to look for Ye Gongzi tonight, because the familiar face Ye Gongzi is also easier to trust him, but the strange thing is that since dusk last night, he has disappeared, and I sent people to look around and there was no trace, so I had to send a fresh face to go. ”

Missing? Interesting.

Ye Feng nodded, he felt that his conjecture was getting closer to the truth step by step.

Su Wang Zhu didn't understand, and looked at Ye Feng with a puzzled face, Ye Feng had no choice but to explain: "Originally, the only clue to the poisoning case of Master Ma was Imperial Doctor Jian who treated Master Ma, he had already seen that Master Ma was poisoned, but he kept delaying and delayed detoxification for Lord Ma, which is extremely unreasonable. It can be speculated that he must have been bribed or threatened to do so. ”

"It's a pity that Imperial Physician Jian's family was slaughtered by a killer named Mobeicheng and wiped out. Originally, as long as he could catch this Mobei City, he would be able to ask the person who instructed him, and he would definitely be the culprit of the poisoning case. ”

"However, this Mobei City has fled without a trace, although I set a trap with the prefect Zhou, hoping to lure him to appear, but he should have seen through our intentions and never appeared. The clue seems to be broken here. ”

Su Wang Zhu didn't understand, glanced at Zhou Ziran and asked, "What trap?"

Zhou Ziran bowed down and replied: "According to what Ye Gongzi said, the lower officials spread the news that Imperial Doctor Jian is not dead, lured the killer to come and kill him, and set up an ambush in the palace, but unfortunately this Mobei City is very cunning and has not been fooled. ”

His Royal Highness King Su nodded and said, "This plan is not bad, but it is a pity that it is too passive and easy to be seen through." ”

He turned to Ye Feng and asked, "Since the clue is broken, can't you think about it?"

Ye Feng smiled faintly: "Not really." In fact, there is another clue that has been ignored by us. ”

Ma Jing's expression tightened, and he asked, "What clues?"

Ye Feng said word by word: "It's the one who carried out the poisoning!"
