Qu Quan immediately ordered Shuo Dendrobium to dispatch people from Jinwuwei You Street Yamen, divided into several waves and held an open fire to search for people on Wanxia Mountain, which had already fallen into the night.

It's night, the moon and stars are sparse, and there are little fires in Wanxia Mountain.

Qu Quan, Wei Yueyan and his wife went to the mountainside to find no one, and then returned.Wei Yueyan pulled out his sword and cut through the thorny road ahead, Qu Quan held a torch to help her illuminate, Ling Xueji and Ling Qiufan sisters were the most relaxed, put on the thick boots brought by Shuo Dendrobium, and followed them Chatting a few words behind him from time to time is like being at home.

After a burst of clear laughter, Ling Xueji didn't know what to think of, and quickly stepped forward to poke Qu Quan's back, making him stagger in fright.Wei Yueyan gave Qu Quan a disgusted look, took the torch in her hand, and used the left hand to light the way and the right hand to open the way without being affected at all.Qu Quan glared at Ling Xueji while arranging his clothes, "Don't poke someone suddenly in the deep mountains and old forests, who are you scaring!"

Ling Xueji stuck out her tongue knowing she was right, then tugged on Qu Quan's wide sleeve and shook it, "Can I ask you a question?"

"Go ahead."

After getting permission, Ling Xueji excitedly tapped Wei Yueyan, who was leading the way ahead without knowing what happened behind him, and then withdrew his finger at the speed of light. "Why is Shuo Dendrobium so polite to my sister-in-law? I just asked my sister and sister, and I couldn't explain it clearly. You should know, right?"

Qu Quan said indifferently: "Because she is the General of the Twelve Guards."

"What do you mean by the twelve generals? I heard from my sister that there were sixteen generals before."

"The sixteen guards were the generals of the first emperor. Later, the four guards were merged and became today's twelve guards." As Qu Quan spoke, the corners of his mouth twitched suddenly as if he had thought of something.Wei Yueyan looked back in doubt, and was facing Shang Ququan's shining amber eyes, which were as deep as a cold spring in the night and could not see the bottom clearly.

"Twelve guards are not a single title, but a general term." Qu Quan turned his head and stretched out a few fingers to Ling Xueji, but found that the light was too weak and gave up. Wu Wei, Left and Right Wei Wei, Left and Right Leading Guards, and Left and Right Jinwu Guards. The twelve guards led the Zhechong Mansion from a distance, and they were divided into Jinling Mansion Bing and Forbidden Army. Set up a general. Now the twelve guards have been merged into one place, and there is only one general in charge, which is the so-called 'twelve guards generals'."

"Shuo Dendrobium is the right street envoy of the Jinwu Guard and the direct subordinate of the General of the Twelve Guards. Naturally, he must do his duty." After Qu Quan concluded, he took out his folding fan and tapped it on the top of Ling Xueji's hair. The appearance of a master teaching a student, "Do you understand?"

Ling Xueji nodded cooperatively, "Understood! Sister-in-law is so powerful! Ah! Why did you beat me, Qu Quan?" She covered her head, hid behind her sister, and only looked at her with big eyes filled with grievance and puzzlement. Qu Quan.

Qu Quan weighed the jade-handled folding fan in his hand, and hummed in his nose, "Let you have a good memory."

"You!" Ling Xueji was not convinced, and was thinking about how to fix Qu Quan for a while, and then listened to the person's explanation.

"The General of the Twelve Guards is nothing more than a position with a reputation and no real power. It's okay to say what you say here, but if you say it in front of others, I'm afraid it will hurt your sister." He put his hands behind his back and continued to pace forward, without looking at Ling Xueji's expression, he used his knees to figure out the expression of the little girl behind him, the corners of her mouth curved even higher.

Sure enough, Ling Qiu's clear and lingling voice sounded behind her, "Xue Ji is still hurrying up, thank you Master Qu for reminding me." She naturally heard Qu Quan's subtext, and it was a lie in her heart to say that she was not grateful.

"Thank you." Wei Yueyan stopped and turned around, his face as black as coal.Qu Quan's move of exaggerating first and then belittling her is simply not to save her face too much.She looked at Qu Quan's bright smiling face, and wished she could put the torch in her mouth.

"General You Wei is not happy." Qu Quan took the torch from her hand, illuminated Wei Yueyan with dark eyes and dark face from top to bottom, and burst out laughing.

Wei Yueyan narrowed his eyes and suddenly smiled too.The smile climbed from the corner of the mouth to the cheek, but finally disappeared in the long eyes that shot out the cold light. Power in the court is infinite, but it is nothing more than a sharp knife used by the sage to eradicate dissidents." She laughed at the few words that Yan Yan squeezed out between her teeth, as cold as ice, and every word was heartbreaking, "The end of the cruel official, It's never been different."

Qu Quan's smile grew stronger, and those who knew her well knew that this was a manifestation of her extreme anger, but her tone of voice was so gentle that water dripped out, as if teasing and teasing among friends, "Isn't there General Wei accompanying me? Going through life and death on the battlefield and returning to the court to hand over all the military power, with the false name of defending the land and expanding the frontier, being suspected by the Holy One every day, this kind of feeling is also uncomfortable."

"Hahaha." Wei Yueyan laughed three times, "Then I and Mr. Qu are the same people who have fallen into the world?"

"Three lives are lucky." Qu Quan couldn't help but look happy.

Ling Qiufan and Ling Xueji stood aside and broke out in a cold sweat, oh my god!How could these two people laugh while saying such heart-piercing words!

They only know that Qu Quan and Wei Yueyan are at odds, but they don't know that these two are mortal enemies in the court, and they both carry several lives on their backs, and there are countless undercurrents of factional struggles.This time, being able to stand on a boat to handle the case simply shocked Man Chao Wenwu's jaws.When Emperor Yulong knew that the two of them were keen on power, as long as the two of them could stand against each other and restrain each other, they would fight. Anyway, one was his murderous blade, and the other was his loyal dog. As long as he held the lifeline, he would Don't worry that the two of them will turn upside down.

How could Qu Quan and Wei Yueyan, the heart of the emperor, not know, they usually only buried this matter in the depths, but now that they were dug out bloody and exposed the hideous wounds naked/nakedly before their eyes, they must redouble their efforts to fight back.The two of them fought back and forth with ease, which frightened the sisters of the Ling family who had never seen such a battle.

"Uh, that Qu Quan..."

"General..."

Before they could say anything, a large piece of light approached this place, and it was the Jinwu Guard holding a torch.The leader, Zhang Fei, almost fell to the ground when his knees softened, "My lords, the subordinates have found you."

"Did you find that woman?" Qu Quan didn't bother to continue entanglement with Wei Yueyan, so he hurriedly asked the result.

Zhang Fei had a bitter face, "No, Mr. Shuo led a group of brothers to continue searching in the north of the mountain, and his subordinates searched the entire south of the mountain without even a trace."

Wei Yueyan put his sword back into its sheath, and the wave of sword energy spread out, shaking several nearby Jinwu guards, everyone felt the anger of their immediate superiors and were too frightened to breathe out.Wei Yueyan put away his sword and walked up the mountain, a group of people followed in a mighty manner, only Qu Quan didn't take this set, but because the Jin Wuwei followed, only Ling Xueji and Ling Qiufan were left with two steps and three steps. Turning back to wait for her, finally the haughty Master Qu shivered, and followed with arms folded.

Walking into the dead wood forest, the scarlet and glaring red marks are even more strange under the light of the fire. The staggered dead branches of bare trees look like ghosts and monsters dancing in the fire, as if you are in a ghost world and a demon city where you can't escape.

"Master Qu." Wei Yueyan stood with his hands behind his back and slightly turned his cheeks sideways, his narrow and upward eyes squinted at him, the flames burning in them, the ghostly and domineering like the lord of a demon city.

This kind of momentum may be able to shock everyone present, but it is of no use to Qu Quan. She didn't even frown, "Time flies by like a boat, don't waste time by calling your name without words."

There was a gasp.

"Master Qu, what else does the red mark refer to?"

Qu Quan cupped his hands and said: "This official is not as imaginative as the general."

"We concluded that this was the mark made by the woman because she was insensitive to the route. All inferences were based on this. What if the red mark is to confuse us at all?"

Qu Quan cupped his hands again: "This official is indeed not as imaginative as the general."

Wei Yueyan turned around, "Master Qu, please speak up if you have something to say."

Qu Quan: "The general is right."

"..." Wei Yueyan lowered his eyes, "Qu Quan, you—"

"The witnesses also judged the purpose of the red marks based on his sister's inability to remember the way and the markings made by his sister when she was a child." Qu Quan directly cut off, "These red marks may indeed have other meanings. And think carefully. If it was really left by the woman, I have doubts. Judging from the current appearance and quantity of red marks, the tool should be a brush and a large amount of red paint. The brush is easy to say, but whether the paint is solid cinnabar or liquid paint, no It is convenient to carry with you when escaping. If a woman is imprisoned for several days and finds many opportunities to escape and finally succeeds, will there be so many burdens left on her body?"

Wei Yueyan nodded, "So—"

"So—" Qu Quan followed her lead, "The general is right."

"..." Wei Yueyan decided not to speak a word to this person tonight.

"My lords! My lords!" Two panting Jinwu guards ran from the north, looking tired and anxious, they rushed to Wei Yueyan and Qu Quan, knelt down on one knee The strength to bow is gone.

Wei Yueyan: "What's the matter?"

"Your Excellency!!" One of the Jinwu Guards' tongues were tied up in excitement, "There is a boatman!! There is a boatman!"

"We found a boatman at the foot of the mountain in the north, and Wanxia Mountain actually has a boatman!!"

"!!" Wei Yueyan hurriedly went to look at Qu Quan, and found that the shocked expression on the other's face was exactly the same as his own.

"Let's lead the way soon!"

"Yes!"
