Heavenly Seven Dragons

"Do you know who I am?" Long Yintian put down his teacup. He didn't want to reveal his identity, but facing people who are stubborn and dying, it's a good way to use force occasionally.

"I don't know, but..." Xiao Jian hesitated for a while, and then he seemed to have the courage to continue, "I know that if I don't give you an answer that satisfies you, my result may not be as simple as death. gone."

"You're very smart." Long Yintian smiled calmly, "But I'm not the kind of cruel person who yells and kills me if I don't agree with you, that's just inferior."

After being silent for a while, Xiao Jian seemed to have figured out something, and the tough feeling around him gradually disappeared.

Afterwards, he kowtowed respectfully, and said: "Whatever you want to know, I must know everything and talk endlessly."

Talking to smart people is easy, Long Yintian didn't go around the bush, and went straight to the point: "People from the Red Flower Society have done a big thing recently, you should have heard about it, and tell the truth about the details."

"The Red Flower Society has been active in the south of the Yangtze River in the past one or two years, and there has been constant friction with the Tiandihui. The Red Flower Society has long colluded with the government, and has suppressed other anti-Qing organizations in various ways. , This time it is completely devastated, and many brothers have left the Tiandihui one after another."

"I'm just a small steward of the Wuxi sub-helm, and I have a small reputation here in Wuxi, but I have left the Tiandihui a year ago, and I have been staying here just to help the old brothers get some It’s just a matter of making a living. This time I was framed and imprisoned because the Honghua Society had other plans in Wuxi, and they didn’t want me to spoil their good deeds, so I made such a bad plan.”

"All the information I have collected in the past few years has been hidden in the store. I only beg you not to implicate my brothers because of my crime."

Seeing Xiao Jian write out the hiding place and a list in detail, Long Yintian nodded in satisfaction: "You know the times well, I promise you, I won't trouble your brothers, as long as they keep their Common people, the past is over."

Only then did Xiao Jian look at Long Yintian gratefully, and he didn't say anything unnecessary, and he didn't take the opportunity to excuse his crime. He believed that as long as his information was valuable, the person in front of him would not kill him.

Originally, he was already deeply tired of the Jianghu, and this incident can be regarded as an opportunity to get out of the Jianghu.

After a few days of secret verification and verification, the sticky pole has confirmed that Xiao Jian's information is completely true. This time, the Honghua Society colluded with the government to rob the Eighth Brother, and the purpose was to thoroughly investigate the progress of the Eight Banners' restructuring.

Although the whereabouts of the eighth elder brother are unknown, He Shen has not forgotten his duty and has been conducting secret investigations. However, he dare not make major moves because of concerns about the safety of the eighth elder brother, so the progress is slow.

Looking at the news sent by Wu Er in detail, Long Yintian spent an afternoon thoroughly sorting out the matter, and made a series of arrangements that night.

He first wrote a secret letter and decree to Hong Zhou, asking him to arrange for the emperor to go south of Beijing in the name of inspecting the south of the Yangtze River. He also prepared the list of accompanying ministers. As soon as the emperor left Beijing, he could do it immediately.

Then, he asked Wuer to secretly bring He Shen over. He needed to play a play with He Shen, firstly to save Yongxuan, and secondly to wipe out those corrupt officials.

It can be said that He Shen is having a very bad time these days, unable to sleep every day, thinking about how to complete the task assigned by the emperor, and how to rescue the eighth elder brother safely.

Although he belongs to the party of the twelve elder brothers, he is only loyal to the emperor from the bottom of his heart, so he doesn't want to watch the eighth elder brother die, because he is very clear about the emperor's love for the eighth elder brother. What happened to brother, the most sad one is probably the emperor.

When he saw the guards at the sticky pole, he was surprised at first, and then he was a little bit expectant and a little doubtful. He was still not sure that the emperor would secretly leave Beijing and go south because of the eighth elder brother.

However, the moment he saw the emperor with his own eyes, all other emotions in his heart disappeared, leaving only peace of mind and peace.

"The humble minister kowtowed to the emperor."

Looking at He Shen who was kneeling in front of him and saluting, Long Yintian continued to write the letter and said casually: "Get up. I know everything that happened in Jiangnan recently, and you must be able to guess the purpose of my trip to the south this time." Come up with one or two. If you have any ideas, just talk about it, after all, you are the imperial envoy."

He Shen stood up straight, thought carefully, and then replied: "Your Majesty, if you want to rescue the eighth elder brother as soon as possible, it is the best way to scare the snake out of the grass. They don't have the courage to hurt the eighth elder brother unless it is a last resort. But If we want to catch those people all at once, I'm afraid we still need to figure it out slowly."

"I don't have that much time and patience, how sure are you and how much time do you need?"

This time, He Shen didn't reply right away, but said: "Please think about it carefully, Your Majesty Rongchen."

"En." Long Yintian also knew that he was a bit strong, but he believed in He Shen's ability, not to mention his secret cooperation. Although this matter was difficult, it was not impossible to solve it.

After about a cup of tea, He Shen replied confidently: "Back to the emperor, I have carefully considered it. If I take a two-pronged approach, I can solve it in only one month, but I am afraid it will take a large-scale attack." The mobilization of the garrison also requires the cooperation of local governments."

"I will give you a month. I will send someone with a military talisman to say hello in advance. One month later, the emperor will arrive in the south of the Yangtze River. If the matter has not been resolved by then, you should know the consequences." Long Yin Although Tian's tone was still calm, the killing intent in it still made people's hearts tremble.

"Weichen understands." He Shen also felt chills behind his back, he knew that this matter can only succeed and not fail, otherwise what is waiting for him is probably the wrath of thunder.

"Well, I will arrange a few guards to accompany you. If you have anything to do, you can tell them directly." By doing this, Long Yintian gave He Shen a lot of power. But what they can represent is the emperor, and their appearance in some matters is equivalent to the emperor's edict.

He Shen was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly received an order to thank him. With the help of the stick, he would definitely be able to guarantee the safety of the eighth elder brother, even if it missed a few corrupt officials because of it, it would be worth it.

For the next few days, Long Yintian stayed in this small courtyard. Apart from reading books and drinking tea every day, he read the information sent every day in detail, and then sent the will to various places in the form of secret letters.

Even if he is not in the capital, he still has to deal with some state affairs that should be dealt with.

Half a month passed quickly. Although Long Yintian seemed to be living a comfortable life every day, he was actually more and more anxious in his heart. If he didn't do something to calm his mind, he would be afraid. I would do something irrational.

Fortunately, Wuer sent a piece of news so that he no longer had to lock himself in the small courtyard.

Because of He Shen's action, those corrupt officials have a sense of urgency, so those who want the Red Flower Society force Yongxuan to write a letter for protection. In this way, the people at the sticky pole will naturally follow them to imprison Yongxuan The place.

After getting the news, Long Yintian naturally couldn't sit still, and took people to the ruined temple on the outskirts of the city overnight. He really couldn't wait, and he would only feel relieved if he personally confirmed it.

Taking advantage of the night, Long Yintian was dressed in a black outfit and a silver mask, and hiked up the mountain with the guards. By the moonlight, he saw a mountain temple in the middle of the mountain, and the temple was still flickering with light .

However, this small temple looks quite dilapidated, it should have been abandoned for a long time, and there are still people there at this time, so there must be something abnormal.

After silently making a few gestures, the guards spread out and approached the small temple from different directions, but all the patrolling guards were killed by them without making a sound.

Long Yintian was completely hidden in the darkness, and quickly came to the window.

After the other guards were finished, he took out a few spherical objects and threw them into the window. The smoke soon filled the room, followed by the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground.

Estimated that the time was almost up, Long Yintian went through the window and found the mechanism behind the mountain god statue. He opened the mechanism according to the method mentioned in the information, and a floor tile in the corner was opened in response.

Wu'er went down to explore the way first, Long Yintian followed closely into the tunnel, and the others stood guard outside.

The tunnel was narrow and dark, and the width was only wide enough for one person to pass through. Wuer walked forward cautiously while sprinkled fluorescent powder on the ground.

I didn't encounter any institutions along the way. It can be seen that the rudimentary here must have been prepared in a hurry, so it is impossible to be complete.

Pushing open the door at the end of the secret passage, Wuer walked in, and after confirming that it was correct, he lit the torch, and the candlelight illuminated the small room.

Seeing someone lying on the bed, Long Yintian came to the bed in a few steps, and it really was the person he had been thinking about day and night, and it was his favorite Yongxuan.

Yongxuan seemed to be asleep, motionless, which was obviously the reason for the drug.

Stretching out his hand to touch Yongxuan's cheek, feeling the temperature from his fingertips, Long Yintian couldn't wait to hug Yongxuan tightly in his arms, but his reason was still very clear, knowing that this place was not a place to stay for a long time.

After thinking about it, he simply put Yongxuan on his back and left here with Wuer.

On the way back, he also asked Wu Er to notify He Shen immediately, so that He Shen could have a bottom line in his heart so that he could change his plan according to the situation.
