In the study of the royal family in Jingyang.

"Young master, there is an important news from the southwest, Hu Tieyang, the younger brother of the lord of Qinan, led the army to break away from the jurisdiction of Qinan State, based on Nanjing City and Xinkang City, established his own country, the country was named Jingkang, and his eldest son, Hu Bugui, the former general of Zhenbei, was named the son. Pei Qiong, who was on the side, looked at the communication paper book in his hand and read it with some surprise.

"Hu Tieyang, Hu Bugui, father and son are separated and self-reliant, it's really unexpected!" Wang Ruoli digested the information, and was quite surprised in his heart.

After all, Nanjing City was a major barrier city in the southwest of Jingxiang Kingdom, and at that time I guessed that the two countries would have a big war!

Since he came back, he has been busy with cultivation and clan comparison, and he has never paid attention to the situation in the southwest anymore. I didn't expect it to be self-reliant now. Compared with countries with populations of more than 100 million, such as Jingxiang and Qinan, this newly established Jingkang State is undoubtedly a small country, so how can it survive between the two countries?

However, these issues have nothing to do with me, so I will not delve into them.

"In Jingyang City, how many people are in charge, in charge, and in charge of the guards, and the captain of the guard, who behave differently?" Wang Ruoli touched the case and asked softly.

"In the past five days, my subordinates have followed the instructions of the young master and arranged for the guards directly under the young master to secretly follow and observe the main figures of the Jingyang Wang family in the city, but the guards were afraid of being discovered and did not dare to follow too closely, so they did not get much useful information. Pei Qiong followed Wang Ruoli's questioning and said one by one, "Wu Yong, the head of gold and jade porcelain, and Wei Ying, the head of salt, tea, rice and meat, have had contact with the personnel of the other two families; Hao Daren, the head of the pawnshop in Qianzhuang, has been closed for five days; Li Cheng, the head of the martial arts, taught a child of the Xie family two days ago, and specially reported it to the young master on the same day; Liang Zhijie, the head of the iron smelting and ordnance industry, privately minted a batch of third-level swords of the Chidi Sword genus without reporting; Gu Sanniang, the head of the Qinglou of the inn; Xiong Xu, the head of the medicine store, wanted to see the young master in the past two days, but the young master refused behind closed doors; as for Kang Lianfa, the head of the cloth store, and Tian Zaisheng, the head of the dock Caoyun, he did not find any special moves. ”

Pei Qiong glanced at Wang Ruoli's expression, and continued: "As for the existing guard captain, including his subordinates and Kou Xin, there are a total of twelve people, Kou Xin has been guarding the red maple building, Xu Guangqing lost more than three hundred taels of silver in the Sima family's gambling house the day before yesterday, Deng Lin bought a new house yesterday, Ren Yu and Huan Zhou, the son of the Huan family, worshipped the handle, and the other guard captains have not yet found others." ”

The personnel structure of the Jingyang royal family is different from that of other cities, but according to the industry category, there are nine heads of Qianzhuang pawnshop, inn Qinglou, martial arts, salt, tea, rice and meat, medicine shop, cloth shop, gold and jade porcelain, iron smelting and ordnance, and dock Caoyun, who cooperate in handling affairs, and are in charge of the business of each military town according to the category. Of course, there is also Wang Ruoli, who is just in charge.

"Okay, got it!" Wang Ruo took care of these main figures in the management of the Jingyang royal family, and he didn't find anything special about his whereabouts in the past few days, frowned, and still ordered, "Pei Qiong, notify me, let the nine heads of affairs, and the eleven captains of the guard, discuss matters in the Zhongzheng Hall from time to time!"

"Command!" Pei Qiong retreated as she said, and just walked out of the door, but was bumped into her arms by Fang Xiaomu, who came in a panic.

"I'm sorry, Brother Pei Qiong. Fang Xiaomu apologized and went into the room.

"What's the matter, Xiao Mu, look at you panicked, what's going on?" Wang Ruoli watched Fang Xiaomu come in in a panic, his expression was a little nervous, and he was puzzled: Although Xiao Mu is only twelve years old, he has always been steady and silent, if something important hadn't happened, he would definitely not be so flustered.

"Brother Ruoli, I have something to tell you!" Fang Xiaomu approached Wang Ruoli before he said softly, "Just now I went to the Sixth Lady's side to find Ruobing to play, and when I used pastries, the Sixth Lady's expression was a little strange, and she winked at me a few times. I began to notice something unusual, and secretly looked around, and found that the maid who was serving the sixth lady and Ruobing's sister, as well as the two guards guarding the door, were all fresh faces, so I found an excuse to come out and hurriedly came to you. ”

"The Sixth Lady and Sister Ruobing's side should be secretly controlled!" Wang Ruoli thought about it carefully, it seemed that some people couldn't sit still, if they didn't cut through the chaos quickly, I was afraid it would get worse, "I will let Yu Lao find an opportunity to rescue them!"

"Brother Ruoli, you must rescue Sister Ruobing!" Fang Xiaomu cared about Wang Ruobing, and looked at Wang Ruoli with anticipation in his eyes.

"Don't worry, Xiaomu, I have my own measure!" Wang Ruoli comforted. If it weren't for the deterioration of the situation and the fact that my father was far away in Jingdu, how would these people have the courage to jump out! But this is fine, whether it is a fish or a algae, pull it out of the water, and you will know the difference!

Approaching the second moment, the main hall of King Jingyang's house, the heads of affairs, and the captain of the guard arrived one after another.

It's just that Wang Ruoli hasn't appeared yet, and everyone in the hall is drinking fragrant tea and talking to each other.

"Isn't the master still in Jingdu City, then the presiding officer of today's meeting, could it be that the young master Ruoli?" Hao Daren, the head of the pawnshop in Qianzhuang, turned his head and asked.

"The master is not here, if the young master is the only son of the old man and presides over the proceedings, it will not be considered trespassing!" Gu Sanniang, the head of the inn Qinglou, bowed slightly.

"Have you heard? If you are young, you will kill all sides in this clan competition conference and win the runner-up!" Wu Yong, the head of the golden jade porcelain, asked the person next to him with admiration.

"This was all a week ago, not to mention such a big happy event, how can you not know the reason!" Kang Lian, the head of the cloth line, said with a smile.

"But it's not, when I first heard this news, I thought it was a rumor, but I didn't expect that if the young master had been hiding it all the time!" Li Cheng, the head of the martial arts, sighed with some emotion.

"I don't know what will be discussed today?" Wei Ying, the head of salt, tea, rice and meat, couldn't help but ask.

"I think something big will happen in the future! My Jingyang Wang family is in charge, if it is not an important matter, if it is not the season, it will always be difficult to get together!" Li Cheng sighed slightly.

"Recently, there have been rumors in the city that the great elder of Jingdu Wang Yu has been assassinated, and the lord is about to lose power, and the deacon of the Jingyang Wang family is afraid that it will change hands!" Xiong Xu, the head of the medicine store, showed a worried look on his face.

"Could it be that the young master will have a big move, so that everyone will be gathered to discuss the matter?" Li Cheng guessed again.

"Maybe the young master has found the culprit who spread the rumors and wants to catch him on the spot. Wu Yong was also imagining.

"Although the young master is young, he has always acted steadily, and he will never chase after the wind like this!" Wei Ying said earnestly.

"I'm afraid that the young master is young and vigorous, and he is easy to be used by traitors!" Xiong Xu said in a secret voice.

"The matter of the high-level of the Wang family, how can we speculate on it without permission, or do our own errands with peace of mind, it is the right way!" Gu Sanniang said seriously.

"That's it!" echoed several of the leaders.

......

Wang Ruoli took Yu Lao to the Zhongzheng Hall while asking Pei Qiong, who came to greet him: "Have all the people arrived?"

"Back to the young master, all the leaders have arrived, as for the captain of the guard, there are still two people who have not arrived, one is Ren Yu, who is not on duty today, and the little guy sent to spread the word has not been able to find his figure; Pei Qiong said truthfully.

"Very good!" Wang Ruoli nodded when he heard this, and turned sideways to Lao Dao, "Yu Lao, please take advantage of the Zhongzheng Hall to go to the backyard to rescue the ladies and Sister Ruobing." Remember not to give the guards on duty in the backyard any time to argue, delay and ask for help, from Deng Lin down, kill them all!"

"This ...... Okay!" Yu Lao hesitated slightly, gave a heavy agreement, and turned around to be about to go.

"Yu Lao, there is still ......" Wang Ruoli hurriedly called Yu Lao, "Your safety is the first priority, and the rest is harmless, and it doesn't hurt to slowly figure it out!"

"Understood!" Yu Lao walked to the backyard with feeling.
