The gate of the Shen Mansion was closed, and there were no idle people around, and the appearance was no different from usual.

After getting out of the carriage, Wang Shun stepped forward and knocked on the door, and the housekeeper of the Shen Mansion poked his head out and saw that it was the Yi Prefect who came, and hurriedly informed the Ouchi guards in civilian clothes behind him.

The guard arched his hand and said, "Please wait a while, and wait until you come to your humble position." ”

After a short time, the man came back and invited the three of them in, and said, "Please come with me to meet the driver, and you two are waiting in the courtyard." The door was then closed again.

Yi Zhifu hurriedly followed the detour to the backyard.

Mo Yan's eyes swept around, Shen Mansion does look not small, pavilions and waters, rockery ponds, planted with some exotic flowers and plants, at this time it is early spring, all kinds of flowers compete for beauty, bursts of fragrance are refreshing. Behind the bushes and in the porch, there are the figures of the Ouchi guards shaking, and the emperor's private interview was only heard in the drama before, but now what he sees with his own eyes is a different feeling.

"Hey, isn't this Wang Shun of Yangzhou Mansion?" a guard foreman walked over to greet him.

Wang Shun recognized this person as Li Yuantong, the foreman of the inner guard, who he met when the emperor went out to Yangzhou last time, so he hurriedly said: "It turned out to be Brother Li, I haven't seen you for a few years, I seem to have made a lot of fortune, how about it, is there time this time, Miss Liu Hong of Yichun Pavilion has been talking about you." ”

Li Yuantong smiled and said, "Really, in the end, it is still a Jiangnan woman who is amorous, but I can't say whether I am free or not, if I have time, I really want to go to meet Miss Liu again, that little lady is as tender as water, and it is difficult to meet in the capital." ”

"Brother Li is really a lover, and the younger brother will inform Miss Liu Hong tomorrow and ask her to wait for her to be ready to serve?"

Li Yuantong laughed when he heard this, glanced at Mo Yan and asked, "Wang Shun, this catcher is new, he looks quite young." ”

Wang Shun nodded and was about to introduce.

"In Xia Mo Er, I have seen Brother Li. Mo Yan replied first and bowed his hand.

"Well, it's still a yellow-haired boy, as long as you follow Wang Shun to Yichun Pavilion twice, you will look much older. Li Yuantong smiled and patted Mo Yan on the shoulder and walked away.

In the foyer under the corridor, an old man in a green robe noticed Mo Yan, and when he saw Li Yuantong approaching, he asked, "Master Foreman, who is the young man who talked to you just now?"

"Yangzhou Mansion catches fast, what is it called. Li Yuantong replied.

The old man in the green robe vaguely felt inappropriate in his heart, this young man was obviously the Orion he had seen in Phoenix City, Xiangxi, that is, he killed the six-fingered Gu woman, and now it turned out to be a Yangzhou Mansion catcher, this matter is complicated, he turned around and walked to the inner hall to find Shen Yilang.

"Shaodong, Yangzhou Yizhifu brought two entourage, one is the chief catcher Wang Shun, the old man recognizes, and the other is named Mo Er, guess who it is?"

"Who is it?"

"It's the young Orion who killed the Six-Fingered Gu Po Kuou in Phoenix City last year. ”

"What?" Shen Yilang stood up suddenly, "You didn't admit your mistake, did you?"

"The old man never recognizes the wrong person. The old man in the green robe said in an affirmative tone.

"If that's the case, it's possible that the Yangzhou government will know about our plan in advance and want to get rid of Kuou before I get the green cantharid. Shen Yilang said worriedly.

"Shaodong, this matter is not trivial, if the emperor knows about it, it will be a big deal. ”

"In this way, you lead him to the abandoned firewood house in the West Courtyard, and I will interrogate him in detail to see what the Yangzhou Mansion knows, and remember to be careful. Shen Yilang commanded.

"Don't worry, the old man will go. The old man in the green robe turned and left.

In the gate of the front yard, when Mo Yan was thinking about how to inquire about the situation, he saw an old man in a green robe walk out of the front hall and go straight to the front.

"Wang Zhutou, the old man is polite. The old man in the green robe greeted Wang Shun.

"Yo, it turned out to be Master Yan, has always been good?" Wang Shun replied.

"Fortunately, Wang Zhutou, there is a shortage of manpower in the house, can you ask this little brother to come to the firewood room to help?"

"Of course you can, Mo Er, this is the famous gossip master Yan or Master in Yangzhou City, and now he is the Great Guardian of Shen Mansion, you can go with him. Wang Shun said.

"Yes. "Mo Yan can't wait to go deep into the Shen Mansion, just when the opportunity comes.

Passing through the garden rockery, along the pond to the door of the firewood house under the west wall, I pushed the door and walked in.

Mo Yan caught a glimpse of a fair-skinned middle-aged man sitting on a chair in the firewood room, wearing a silk brocade robe, looking at him expressionlessly, it was Shen Yilang.

With a "poof" sound, Mo was unable to wilt to the ground as soon as the Tao Dao acupoint on the back of his neck was numb.

At this moment, his heart was full of remorse, he couldn't have imagined that this gossip boxer, who he had never known, and the Shen Mansion's protector Yan might suddenly make a move. Moreover, since coming to Yangzhou, they have never met with Shen Yilang, and it is impossible for them to know that Mo Er is a fake catcher, and as the entourage of the Yangzhou prefect, the Shen Mansion has no reason to do it, it seems that he is involved in some dangerous things.

"Mo Er, this son asks you, did you go to Phoenix City last year and kill the six-fingered Gu Po Kuou?" Shen Yilang said straight to the point.

Mo Yan was even more shocked in his heart, how could they even know about killing Kuou, and he only told Mr. Xia and Ni Oh, it was impossible for them to spread it. The sinister rivers and lakes are really unguardable, it seems that it is difficult to escape this catastrophe today, and after asking, he will definitely kill people.

"Young owner, this kid has a hard mouth, let him taste the taste of the old man's muscles and bones, and he will say it. Yan Or rubbed his palms and said.

Shen Yilang nodded: "No matter what means are used, he must tell it." ”

Yan He was about to make a move but felt that something was wrong, so he hurriedly probed Mo Yan's snort with his hand and exclaimed, "It's not good, this kid is dead." ”

Shen Yilang's face was full of anger when he heard this: "You must be too heavy." ”

"I didn't expect this kid to be so unscrupulous, the old man only used sixty percent of his internal strength, looking at the brute force he used to kill the six-fingered Gu woman, I thought he"

"It's good now, I can't ask anything, do you want to give the emperor cantharid Gu tonight, if they have taken precautions, won't we fall into the net." Shen Yilang interrupted Yan Or's words angrily.

"Alas, it's all because the old man was careless for a while, causing trouble to the young owner, I will go and bring Wang Shun again, he is the chief catcher of Yangzhou Mansion will always know something. Yan Or suggested.

"Okay, don't mess it up again this time, if the prefect comes out, say that they have something to do and leave first. Shen Yilang told him.

After a while, Yan or a person returned.

"It's a fucking coincidence, as soon as I arrived at the gate, the prefect of Yi came out, and asked about Mo Er, and the old man lied to him that this kid chopped wood and cut his hand, and went out of the side door to find Lang Zhong to treat his injury. Yan Or said frustratedly.

"Does the Governor believe it?"

The old man saw that he hesitated, and finally left with Wang Shun, and it seemed that he would not doubt it. ”

"Okay, there is no way back, and when the master and I are on the table at the dinner today, success or failure will be in this move. Shen Yilang said.

"What to do with this kid's corpse?" Yan asked.

"Just lock it in this waste wood room, and then destroy the corpse after the emperor leaves, those big inner eagle dogs have very poisonous eyes, don't let them see the flaws, anyway, it can't stink when it's cold now." ”

"Yes, young owner. ”

Shen Yilang and Yan Or walked out of the firewood room after speaking, and the lock fell with a "click", and the footsteps gradually faded away.

Mo Yan turned over and climbed up, this time thanks to Jin Danzi's "Shrinking the Fetus and Dispersing Qi Gong" to save him, Yan He's finger was the Tao Dao soft hemp acupoint that closed the Du Pulse at that time, but it was immediately rushed away by the true qi in the eight veins of the Scattered and Qi Sutra. He knew that he might not be the opponent of the gossip boxer Yan He, and there was an unfathomable Shen Yilang beside him, he would definitely not be able to win, and the only way to escape this catastrophe was to pretend to be dead. His current fetal breath level can only breathe once in two or three days, so it is not difficult to deceive the past, but what he heard in his ears about giving the emperor a Gu is indeed not trivial. It has nothing to do with Qianlong Ye whether he lives or dies, but if he thinks about it, if this matter is done, the benefits he will gain will not be small. If he saves the emperor, he can not only return to Dali with the case openly, but also expose the corruption and perversion of the law by Guiqi, the prefect of Yichang, clear the charge and avenge the master of Miao Hall, Xia Bashan, and arrest Shen Yilang and save Miss Du, which is really worth it.

After making up his mind, he swept his eyes around, and found that there was a small back window high in the wall of the firewood room, so he reached out and put his hand on the edge of the window to look out, and two feet away was the courtyard wall, and it was the most suitable place to escape from here. Mo Yan pushed open the wooden window sash hard, and easily got out, and then inhaled and concentrated his thoughts on his feet, and his body soared into the air and crossed the high courtyard wall, but his legs would not be released when he fell, and his butt sat on the ground all of a sudden. Seeing that there was no one around, he quickly sneaked away and went straight to Yangzhou Mansion.

In the palace, Yi Zhifu, Wang Shun and Du Yuanwai were worried about Mo Yan's disappearance.

"My lord, even if Mo Er hurts his hand while chopping wood, it is impossible for him to rush to find Lang Zhong, because he himself is Lang Zhong, and besides, he will not leave without even saying hello, there must be something wrong here, and he thinks that he has encountered an accident. Wang Shun analyzed.

"Yes, these can't be explained, but now that the Holy Lord lives in the Shen Mansion, we can't track down Mo Er's whereabouts at all, and we can only talk about it later. "The prefect of Yi is also helpless.

Du Yuanwai sighed on the side, and his daughter's illness seemed hopeless.

And at this moment, Mo Yan came back.

"My lord, Mo Er has discovered a big conspiracy. Mo Yan recounted what had happened, but he didn't say that he was pretending to be dead, but that he heard it in a semi-coma.

"Is this serious?" Yi Zhifu was shocked into a cold sweat.

"Mo Er heard it with his own ears, and there was no falsehood. ”

"Gu kills the current Long Live Lord, that is the crime of plotting great rebellion to Ling Chi and exterminate the Nine Clans. ”

"My lord, this matter should be dealt with as soon as possible, just in case. Wang Shun said.

"But if there is a mistake, the crime of alarming the holy driver is not small. The prefect hesitated.

"Your Excellency, can you let Li Yuantong, the head of the internal guard, come out, inform him of this matter privately, and listen to his opinion. ”

"It's fine. ”
