city ​​gate.

Cang'er County is a small county, and the city wall repaired outside is not high, so the city gate looks a little chilly.In the past, when the county magistrate was in power, the soldiers guarding the gate were lazy and basically did not do practical things.

After Tang Zisheng dealt with the affairs of the sixth room, he ordered the soldiers at the gate of the city to be inspected by Miao, and replaced the veterans who had guarded the pass before. A pair of discerning eyes.

"The superior has issued an order, let's watch it closely." A soldier came down from the wall in the city, and whispered a message to several people who were watching people nearby.

"Understood." Several veterans did not move around a lot, nor did they step forward to check the pedestrians one by one.

For them, the tighter point is that each person has changed their position again, and each person is watching a detail of the pedestrian.

I heard Miaotou said that he was a person from Nanzhou, and he was very capable, but this kind of person was good at concealment, but it was almost interesting to pretend to be a trafficker.

As for the walking posture, the calluses on different parts of the hands, and the way people look, they are all very different. There are quite a few people on the other side, and it seems that they will definitely not go to the city together.

No, it wasn't long before the guard was on guard, and I saw the two carrying vegetables walking towards the city. They lowered their heads to avoid staring at the soldiers guarding the gate. Although their backs were bowed, they were different from those hunchbacks who had been doing heavy work for a long time. , As long as you see a lot of people, you can see the difference between the collapsed back and the actively bowed back.

The soldiers leaning against the city wall made a two-character gesture behind them. Naturally, someone in the city was paying attention to the movements of these people.

-

News from the county government kept coming one after another. Tang Zisheng raised his head to see if the number of people was too much.

"I'll go out for a while." After seeing the news from Tang Zisheng, Shen Yiran suddenly wanted to go out with a sword in his hand.

"Now?" Tang Zisheng gave Shen Yiran a strange look.

"Well, I won't let them find out, and now they don't dare to enter the county government office to check it out during the day." Judging by the number, the spies from Xinwang's mansion may not be the only ones entering the city.

If someone from the General's Mansion came, he would have to respond earlier, so that they could seize the opportunity to kill the people from the Prince Xin's Mansion.

"Then be careful."

Shen Yiran nodded, and left the room. Zhou Nanchuan followed Shen Yiran and left, then turned back to Tang Zisheng, "He asked for help?"

"Should be." Tang Zisheng vaguely guessed, if this is the case, their preparations these days will be in vain.But the danger can be lifted immediately, but I don't know if Shen Yiran will take the opportunity to blackmail him.

"Don't worry, if he never comes back, we will be left alone in the county government office waiting to die."

Zhou Nanchuan didn't trust Shen Yiran as much as Tang Zisheng did. He always suspected that Tang Zisheng believed in Shen Yiran so much, and it had a lot to do with Shen Yiran's beautiful face.

"Without Shen Yiran, our manpower won't say that we are sure to win, but we won't be embarrassed to lose. What's more, if you dare to sit here with confidence, you must have brought your life-saving things. What else is there to worry about?"

"You can guess that too?" Zhou Nanchuan felt that Tang Zisheng could probably read minds.Otherwise, how could his behavior be seen as clean, and even his underwear would be stripped.

"It's useless to guess, your performance already speaks for itself."

"Then let's not talk about me. I have the trump card and I am confident. What trump card do you have, Mr. Tang? If you dare to let Shen Yiran go at this time, don't say you have found out your conscience." In Zhou Nanchuan's view, Tang Zisheng has no conscience.

"Can you still call the hole card if the hole card is exposed?" Tang Zisheng did have the hole card, and the hole card was in this room.

But he didn't hope to use it at that time, because if he used this hole card, the consequences would not be any better than being killed by spies from Xinwangfu.

"That's right, I just hope that we won't use it tonight."

……

After Shen Yiran left the county office, he put on a mask and rushed to the place where he left the mark.Although he had a mask, he never went to crowded places with great fanfare.

Cang'er County is too small. If there is an extra masked person on the street, those who believe in the king can guess his identity without thinking too much. A dead soul.

It is better to kill by mistake than to let go, this is the code of conduct of King Xin.

Fortunately, this situation was considered at the beginning. Shen Yiran didn't meet anyone along the way. When he walked to the mark, there were two more scratches on the inconspicuous crabapple flower mark at the lower end of the wooden pillar, indicating that someone had been there.

"Come out." Shen Yiran took off his mask.

Hearing the wind, two people dressed in coarse linen appeared behind Shen Yiran, and at the same time saluted Shen Yiran who showed his face, "Young master."

"How many people came here?" Shen Yiran breathed a sigh of relief.

"20 people."

"How come there are so many?" The spies in the general's hands are very useful, sending 20 people to find him is not a waste of manpower, Xin Wang's mansion only sent about ten people to find him.

"There were only 12 people in the first batch. The general sent another eight people over two days ago. He asked us to find out about you, young master. At the same time, he asked Xin Wang's mansion to send out no one alive."

Two days later, these eight people should have been left by the general in Xizhou, otherwise they would not have been able to come over so quickly, "How many people have been sent by Prince Xin's Mansion this time, and when are you going to intercept and kill them?"

"There are 13 people in Prince Xin's Mansion this time. Originally, we planned to wait for the people from Prince Xin's Mansion to find clues about the young master in Xizhou before we start." That was tonight, but we didn't expect to find the young master as soon as we entered the city.

"Notify people to go down and do it earlier, be sure to clean up the tail, and then go to the Cang'er county government to find me." After finishing speaking, Shen Yiran put on the mask again, turned and left.

The remaining two people also disappeared in an instant, and together with the crabapple flowers on the wooden pillar, it seemed that they had never appeared before.

-

"Guard Shen is back." Zhou Nanchuan was a little excited. As soon as Shen Yiran left, no one played the chess in front of him with him. Sitting so boring, it was terrible.

"It's settled." Shen Yiran said surprisingly.

"Solution? Is that what I think it means?"

Shen Yiran nodded, "The general also sent someone to look for me. The staff at Xinwang's Mansion are too long. The general has already issued an order to silence the people. It doesn't need to be dark."

"Shen Huwei, you should have said it earlier, it made us prepare for so long in suspense." He was still thinking about fighting, but now he was excited for nothing.

"I'm also not sure whether the general will send someone to arrive in time. Instead of giving you expectations in advance and no one will be disappointed when the time comes, it's better to give you a surprise now."

The meaning of Shen Yiran's words should be to make a joke, but maybe Shen brother has no talent for humor. Zhou Nanchuan's words were not pleasant to Zhou Nanchuan's ears.

"It's a surprise. I originally wanted to use the people in the hands of King Xin to check my strength. Now it seems that it won't work, but it's okay. There will be no casualties without using weapons. I owe you a favor from the General's Mansion. . " Tang Zisheng guessed it from Shen Yiran's departure.

He didn't know whether the General's Mansion's attack this time was good or bad for him.

"The people from Xinwang's Mansion are here for me, and you are just joining forces. We should have solved the people from Xinwang's Mansion this time."

Shen Yiran didn't take advantage of the fire to rob. In his opinion, this matter started because of him, and he should solve it.

"You can't say that. If I keep you as a guard in Cang'er County, then naturally I have to bear the corresponding risks. I'll give the favor away. If the general has something I want to help in the future, it is definitely incumbent on me."

"It's up to you, but I may have to leave this place for a while tomorrow." After finishing the settlement of Prince Xin's Mansion, he always had to go back to Nanzhou to see the General. The sooner the better.

"Back to the general's mansion?"

"Well, I will tell the general about your matter. If there is no accident, I will come back within 20 days."

The time limit for the general's mansion to go back and forth to Cang'er County is already limited. Since he promised that he would not break the appointment for half a year, he would tell the general about the matter at that time, and the general would definitely send someone over to discuss with Tang Zisheng in detail.

"Alright, you go and pack your things first. I'll write a letter now, and you can pass it on to me then."

"it is good."

After Shen Yiran left, Zhou Nanchuan came over from his position, "The soldier talisman has not yet been confirmed and sent to the Northwest General's Mansion. What if something happens?"

"Are you someone who doesn't trust you, or you don't trust Shen Yiran's character." Even if the soldier talisman was not delivered, Shen Yiran would agree to send this letter.

"I believe in everything. I'm not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. Today's incident also gave me a wake-up call. We have worked so hard to deal with the pursuit of Xin Wangfu, and the people sent by the general can solve it in just a moment. This shows the disparity in strength between us, so, do you still have the confidence to ask the general to help you?"

Zhou Nanchuan's words were true, and Tang Zisheng had indeed seen the strength gap between them in this contest, but there were also many constraints to be so restrained.

"I have always had confidence. As for whether the general agrees or not, I can't control it. What we have to do now is to start training troops as soon as possible. After the 500 people are settled, let Lao Miao go again. The starting point of [-] is somewhat If it is too low, the number should be increased to one thousand.”

"It seems that you are still stimulated, so I just have good news. I have already arranged the restaurant in Kaiyun Mansion, and the strange pot you made is also ready. When the people under my hands are sure to use it, there will be no accidents." , and the restaurant will open in the next few days."

Zhou Nanchuan paid attention to efficiency in handling affairs. The officials who audited Tang Zisheng who came to the sixth room were like this, and now they are running a restaurant.

"Then choose an auspicious day to open the restaurant as soon as possible. When you say it opens, should we go to Kaiyun Mansion to have a look."

I have been aggrieved in Cang'er County, with a total of [-] people, and it is already very difficult to recruit some capable people from it.But if it develops in the future, it will only be more short of manpower.

If he can find some capable people in Kaiyun Mansion, he can start to re-plan the new layout of Cang'er County and prepare to build a new city wall outside Cang'er County.

"It's not impossible to go. There are not many things going on in the county now, but Guard Shen is not here. If you encounter danger again, don't blame me for not being strong enough."

If Zhou Nanchuan wants to open a restaurant, they can go there.After all, if this restaurant can earn more money, it can open a few more in the four states.

The profit of the catering business is not a small amount. Opening more restaurants can solve the army's expenses.

"I'm not a relative of the emperor, nor a high-ranking official. Without Guard Shen, no one would come to trouble me."

Tang Zisheng laughed at Zhou Nanchuan's nervousness, and his offenses were all small shrimps.And the whereabouts of these shrimps are all under his control, and there is no trouble.

However, what happened this time should have taken Brother Xu by surprise, and I don't know if he would like to invite him to Kaiyun Mansion to see the opening of the restaurant to relax.
