Seventy-seven meeting GL

Going all the way to the pier, Xiao Xuanji said to Lang Yin, "The local governor officially took over the files of the two Zheng brothers today. Although this matter is no longer under our control, regarding the suicide of the Zheng brothers in prison, The old minister would like to ask His Highness for his opinion."

Lang Yinshi sat on the horse, seemed to be in a daze, and said indifferently, "It's nothing unexpected. Maybe they knew that capital crime was inevitable, and life crime was inevitable, so they just died. They thought clearly, even if they didn't commit suicide, This king will not let them go."

"It's just a pity that what the king wants, I still haven't got it."

"..." Xiao Xuanji glanced at Chen Xu who was following closely behind the two of them, his face was gloomy, and he didn't speak.

On the other hand, Chen Xu, Le Diandian followed behind, and after listening to Lang Yinshi's words, he showed a secretly delighted smile.

When the carriage reached the intersection, Lang Yinshi stopped his horse and turned around.This intersection is the intersection of several official roads in the southeast. The front leads to Zhongzhou Mansion, and the side turn leads to the pier in the north. There, an official passenger ship is waiting to be picked up.

"Master Chen, just send it here." Lang Yin explained.

Chen Xu looked around, "But, we haven't reached the pier yet..." Seeing that this road is a big fork, he felt puzzled.He still wanted to say something, but seeing Lang Yinshi's firm face and his resolute attitude of seeing off the guests, Chen Xu had no choice but to hesitate, expressed a lot of farewell, and left with a group of people.

Seeing that Chen Xu led the people away, the officials of Lang Yin Shichao said, "My lords, Lord Xiao will take you to the pier, take a boat to the north, and arrive at Tongzhou Mansion in a few days. I have something to do, and I will take the main road to Zhongzhou Mansion Stay for a few days, and then join everyone in Tongzhou."

"Let's say goodbye here, Mr. Xiao, I'm sorry!" Lang Yinshi finished speaking and waved his hands to Xiao Xuanji in salute.

"Your Majesty, the old minister, these are what the old minister should do." Xiao Xuanji responded, and slowly reminded, "Your Highness, be careful on this trip, a strong dragon cannot overwhelm a snake, then... we will set off first." After finishing speaking, take With the crowd and some carriages diverted at the intersection, they continued towards the pier.

Lang Yinshi nodded, and the rest of the team got the order and continued to move forward along the main road.

Not far away, Chen Xu's sinister face appeared from behind the big tree, and he snorted coldly.

"Sure enough, there is a plan to implement it when I was asked to leave." Chen Xu watched Lang Yinshi's group of carriages heading for the main road, showing a treacherous smile, "Most of the carriages follow Lang Yinshi, which means that the account books go on the main road."

"Xue San," Chen Xu turned around and ordered, "Send someone to watch and see where the account books are going. It takes four days to get out of the southeast border by water or land. You let them keep an eye on it. In the southeast area, let's do it. I don't know if this Lang Yinshi is really stupid or not, it is rumored that he has great martial arts skills, so I am so scared that I don't dare to fight hard."

"But today he decided to change his route to go to Zhongzhou Mansion and leave old man Xiao behind. Isn't that what I wanted? When we kill old man Xiao and erase the account books, he will suffer instead of meritorious deeds! Look at him Why go back empty-handed!"

"Your Excellency is so strategic! When the time comes, King Ye and King Xuan will have to lose all face and hide in shame!" Xue San flattered him like a dog's leg, "Look at these noble and important officials, they are in our house every day. Five people and six, what? Isn't it because of his status as a celebrity in front of the emperor?" Xue San cursed, he was tortured by punishment, and he was full of hatred. "Who is not arrogant when they are powerful? I wish they would all suffer this one day! Let's see if they still have such a noble face!" As he spoke, he grinned his teeth in pain again, and touched his swollen cheek.

Seeing his funny appearance, Chen Xu laughed out loud. "It's good to enjoy the shade under the big tree! The southeast has been the crown prince's territory for many years, but it's not a place where they can be fierce! Our emperor looks down on the worthless people the most. What about the general who protects the country? Isn't it gone after returning to Beijing?" Movement, follow behind his brother, obediently be an errand to the southeast? You and I will wait and see how the emperor treats his incompetent good son!"

Southeast Pier

There is a spacious passenger ship parked at the pier. The passenger ship has a generous and simple appearance, and the interior is thoughtfully furnished with everything that one expects to find. It can accommodate twenty or thirty people.The guards were already standing guard around the cabin.

The river wind was blowing, blowing the flag of the passenger ship, making a hula hula sound.Wave after wave of the river water slapped against the outer wall of the cabin, bringing a little fishy smell of the river water.

Xiao Xuanji stood on the deck, looking at the sky, and after staying for more than two hours, he was finally about to set off.He raised his hand and motioned to the boatman to set off.Wearing a bunt, the strong-built boatman immediately pulled up the anchor rope.

"Lord Xiao!" At this moment, a voice came from far away from the shore, and a guard ran up the deck.

"My lord! His Royal Highness Ye Wang sent a carriage with a few boxes, and it stopped below!" the guard reported.

Xiao Xuanji looked in the direction he was pointing at, and it was indeed a farmer's carriage, with a bamboo carriage and blue floral curtains blocking his sight.A man with the appearance of a servant is leading several people to carry boxes.

Wrinkles appeared again on Xiao Xuanji's withered face, his expression was serious, and he didn't speak for a long time.

"My lord, we have checked it. The box is full of ledgers. Maybe His Highness is worried and wants you to bring these? If you are worried, let's go check it again?" The guard explained with a simple and honest face.

"No need." Looking at the people under the boat a few more times, Xiao Xuanji's face gradually relaxed, and he raised his hand to signal that he didn't need to say any more, "Let them come up. Go and tell the boatman to start the boat. It's time, we should go."

"Okay!" The guard ran away, Xiao Xuanji looked at the carriage, touched his chin, thoughtfully, "Hmm..."

The journey to the north was slower. Due to the frequent traffic of goods in the southeast and the frequent control of the river, it took six days for them to sail out of the waters of the southeast region and enter the vast river surface of the central region.

As soon as they entered the central region, there were not many boats coming and going. On the vast river, there were only a few big boats from a distance. Such a scene made their boat go very smoothly.

After having dinner in a small town along the way, the ministers boarded the ship and continued the journey.Seeing that the sky was getting late, the sporadic lights had already been lit, and the armors of the guards on the deck gradually reflected the red light of the lanterns.

After admiring the riverside scenery for a while, Xiao Xuanji returned to the cabin, and accidentally dozed off as the waves swayed.Although he is not senile, he is considered old. It is hard work to travel to and from the board of directors, and he is easily exhausted by boating.

When Xiao Xuanji woke up, he saw the moon in the middle of the sky, casting a cold shadow on the river, the clouds flowed, the moon appeared and disappeared, and the distant mountains on both sides of the bank were sometimes bright and sometimes dark.He came out of the cabin and took a breath on the deck, only to find that the whole ship was extremely silent, as if everyone had fallen into a deep sleep.

None of the guards on deck were gone.Secretly surprised in his heart, he turned to the stern and saw several servants on the ground hugging each other and dozing off.Xiao Xuanji couldn't help feeling angry, his face was serious. "These soldiers are too unruly! They are lazy when no one is watching!"

He stepped forward and kicked the group of people, "Is this what the so-called loyalty to duty means? You really didn't do a single word! The salary allocated to you by the imperial court every month is for you to eat and drink for nothing!"

With this kick, several attendants collapsed on the ground. Seeing that the attendants were motionless, Xiao Xuanji realized something was wrong. He stretched out his hand to probe, and these people didn't even breathe!

Shocked in his heart, "Ah!" Xiao Xuanji was so frightened that he backed up again and again. He had just taken two steps when the cold air hit the back of his neck, and the breath of death made his heart rise to his heart for a moment. It hit his head, and he fell limply to the ground.

Behind him, a dark figure stood under the moonlight, smiling treacherously. "Hehe, I was looking for this old guy in the full cabin, but he just ran out." As the assassin said, he walked to the edge of the deck and saw a small sampan underneath. Noisily approached the passenger ship.

The assassin set off a simple firework. Under the reflection of the soaring firework, there was a small boat in the distance, slowly approaching here.Hearing the sound of fireworks, two more black shadows approached from the side of the ship, the clouds in the sky gradually covered the moon, and the deck went dark for a moment.

"It's all resolved?" the leading assassin asked, and the remaining two nodded in confirmation, and one of them said, "They all slept soundly, and they didn't even know they died in a dream."

"Are those ledgers still there? I heard from Xue San that before the ship set off, a carriage came to deliver things. It is likely that the ledgers were delivered. Have you searched carefully?"

"I searched, those boxes are hidden in the cabin."

"Okay, you guys, go over there and sprinkle some wine and light a fire, we will burn this boat!" The leading assassin said to the two, "We will withdraw when the corresponding boat arrives."

One nodded and ran towards the stern.

The leader of the assassins wanted to check Xiao Xuanji to see if he was still alive, but when he turned around, he saw the remaining assassin standing there indifferently.

"Can't you hear me talking to you? Idiot?!" Clouds covered the moonlight, and the leading assassin couldn't see the man's face clearly. Seeing that the man had been silent, he was immediately annoyed, and quickly stepped forward, picked up the man "Damn, I brought you out to do such a big job, why are you making such a bad face for me? If you are disobedient, I will let you die on this boat!"

Just as he was speaking, the moon suddenly jumped out from the clouds, and his sight became clear for a moment. The assassin leader took a closer look and couldn't help being startled. The person in front of him was not a familiar subordinate, but a completely unfamiliar face.

"I can hear very clearly." The man's handsome eyebrows and starry eyes, deep eyes, like water in a deep pool, the cold moonlight shining on his fair face, seemed to be shining like silver.

What is completely different from his appearance is his unusually vigorous and fierce skill. He hit the neck of the assassin leader with one hand, forcing the assassin leader to stagger back. Not to be outdone, the assassin leader slid the dagger in front of Lang Yinshi like a snake letter Under the moonlight, the dagger revealed a piercingly cold light. It was too late and then soon, Lang Yinshi turned his body sideways, stepped on the knee of the assassin leader, and immediately stepped forward, twisting his arm lightly. , the leader of the assassin uttered a cry of pain, and the dagger fell to the ground with a ping-pong. This strike seemed light, but in fact, the assassin's arm had been removed. When he got behind him, he hit his head with an elbow, and the assassin leader fell heavily to the ground with a "bang".

Lang Yinshi dealt with the leader of the assassins, only to find that the other side of the boat was full of flames and thick smoke, and another assassin was coming from behind him holding a dagger.Lang Yinshi stepped on the railing, and turned over to avoid the assassin's violent attack. The assassin moved quickly, and because of the close distance between the two, he turned around and stabbed the dagger at Lang Yinshi. It was difficult to dodge, so Lang Yinshi had to face the assassin's attack with both hands. Fang Xiang held the dagger, slowed down the force of the dagger, twisted his body to remove the dagger, and knocked the assassin away. Seeing that the assassin had hit the railing of the deck, Lang Yinshi stepped forward to pick up his legs, and threw him down. deck.

With a "plop", the assassin fell into the water, and a huge splash was splashed under the cabin.

This splash disturbed the approaching boat, and the boat stopped approaching, but sailed farther and farther in the opposite direction.

But the boat obviously did not leave because of the spray, Lang Yinshi turned his head and saw that the bow of the entire passenger ship was completely on fire, the blazing fire lit up the entire river, and the flag of the passenger ship stood alone in the flames.

The heat came in waves, with engulfing force and the sound of crackling wood.

Under the light of the fire, Lang Yinshi hurried forward and picked up Xiao Xuanji who had fainted on the ground, "Master Xiao, hold on!" Seeing that Xiao Xuanji's head was covered with blood, Lang Yinshi didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and he was very worried. Carrying Xiao Xuanji up, perhaps the wine in the cabin was ignited, "Boom! Boom!" The center of the cabin suddenly exploded, a heat wave rushed over, the hull was turbulent, Lang Yinshi stood restlessly, and brought Xiao Xuanji into a collision together. On the railing.

Lang Yinshi was slammed into the railing, and the pain was severe for a while.As the hull split, the crooked passenger ship gradually sank.

No matter what, you can't stay.

Lang Yinshi gritted his teeth, carried Xiao Xuanji on his shoulders, and searched around. The river here was empty, not even sporadic fishing boats could be seen.They are in the middle of the river, if there is no support and no rescue, they may be in danger.Being anxious, Lang Yinshi caught a glimpse of a small sampan floating on the river more than ten meters away.That was left by the assassins.

He had an idea in front of his eyes, took a deep breath, and Lang Yinshi said firmly, "Lord Xiao, I've offended you!" He said, supporting Xiao Xuanji, and jumped into the icy river with all his might.
