Chapter 170 Follow the law, deep in the mountains late at night
In the soft sedan chair, An Pingzhi held the guqin like a treasure. After some precusation, he was sure that Leng Xuanrong really wanted to give him the Guqin, and then An Pingzhi took it over. Although this guqin flowed out of Xiaohan's mansion, in the face of such a treasure, An Pingzhi really did not want to make a mistake with it. After the joy in his heart retreated a little, An Pingzhi lifted the curtain of the sedan chair and called the old housekeeper beside him to say a few words. The old housekeeper seemed to be a little surprised after hearing An Pingzhi's words, but since it was his master's order, he had to secretly remember it and wait for the time to do it.
Leng Xuanrong sent away An Pingzhi and He Lijing, as if it were a matter of concern.
After this matter came to an end, He Lijing seemed to be much quieter. But everyone knows that such silence will not last long. Zeng Yanliang goes out to inquire about the news almost every day, and the news he brought back also makes Leng Xuanrong more and more worried about their current situation.
More and more troops have been mobilized outside Wuming County, and some even He Lijing has no right to mobilize at all. They have moved, which only shows that there are other people with more power than He Lijing in action. Leng Xuanrong and Zeng Yanliang both know who this more powerful person is, and they can naturally guess what that person wants to do.
Intantiated rebellion. Although Leng Xuanrong knew that there was such a thing in the court from her previous life, she did not feel it at all in her previous life. In this life, until now, she has such a sense of urgency. In case something is different from the previous life, in case that person really pulls the flag for breakfast, his chances of winning are far greater than that of King Xiaohan and others. Leng Xuanrong knows better that if Du Yilin, the king of Xiaohan, falls, not only her Leng Xuanrong, but also her brother Yan Liang, her father, and even Mr. Dou, who is far away in the imperial city, may be in risk of life.
So at this time, Leng Xuanrong decided to cooperate with Meng Zhuangqing. Every day, Zeng Yanliang will tell Meng Zhuangqing some of the news after he comes back. Because of this, they and Meng Zhuangqing and others gradually gained a little trust with each other, and Meng Zhuangqing would also tell Leng Xuanrong some instructions that Du Yilin returned to them.
Sharing these news is very beneficial to Leng Xuanrong, who learned about Du Yilin's current movements from Meng Zhuangqing. Since Du Yilin returned to the imperial city, he not only did not provoke the first assistant prime minister with great fanfare, but also took Mr. Dou to play everywhere. Meng Zhuangqing said so, but Leng Xuanrong knew that Du Yilin was trying to attract more people to his side. In case the first assistant prime minister starts to take action, Du Yilin will definitely fight back immediately.
For Wuming County, Du Yilin also seemed to take a permissive attitude. He did not clearly say how to deal with He Lijing, but said that Meng Zhuangqing and others must keep an eye on An Pingzhi.
At this time, Leng Xuanrong thought that An Pingzhi came to Wuming County, perhaps not just for the marriage between him and He Ruiping.
People are always blinded by something they already know. Just like the current Leng Xuanrong. She has long known how things will develop in the future, so she only cares about what is most related to the result, but ignores the hidden things behind it.
After Leng Xuanrong understood this, she reorganized the context of the matter. But no matter how she straightens it out, she can't figure out what other purpose An Pingzhi has. According to the memory of Leng Xuanrong's previous life, there was no earth-shaking change here after An Pingzhi left Wuming County. And what happened after they returned to the imperial city was another matter in the imperial city. Is what happened in the imperial city at that time also related to Wuming County?
Leng Xuanrong has a headache, because from Wuming County to the Imperial City, what she saw and heard in these two places in her previous life was not enough to be the basis for her actions now. Now her situation is different from when she was in Ganyan County.
In order to find out what An Pingzhi had done, Zeng Yanliang decided to follow the movements of An Pingzhi and his martial artists. Although Leng Xuanrong was worried, there was no other way.
Zeng Yanliang left the Raven Green Ink Pavilion under the cover of the night in an eye-catching dark clothes like a peaceful day. He quietly walked through the street and soon arrived at the county governor's mansion. This place is already a familiar road for Zeng Yanliang. He carefully sneaked into the county governor's mansion and hid high to secretly observe An Pingzhi and his martial artists.
Anping still sits in the courtyard and plays the piano at night. For this, his martial artists seem to be used to it. After so many days, even Zeng Yanliang feels used to it. They haven't moved for several days, and Zeng Yanliang even felt that they might not do anything. However, just when Zeng Yanliang wanted to leave, he suddenly found that two martial artists shrank their heads and quietly climbed over the wall and left the county magistrate's mansion.
There is obviously something hidden in this way of leaving. Zeng Yan was happy and hurriedly followed them.
The two martial artists went all the way west, and there was a gap in the west wall. From here, they left Wuming County. Even Zeng Yanliang didn't know this gap. Seeing them go out, Zeng Yan thought to himself that it was not the first time for An Ping's men to enter and out of Wuming County from here. No matter what they were doing, it must not be the first time to do it.
Zeng Yanliang and these two martial artists went out of the city and continued to walk west. Instead of taking the official road, they quickly entered the mountains of the remnants of Fengquan Mountain and walked along a rugged path into the deep mountains. In such a mountain, Zeng Yanliang had to be more careful and get closer. In case he loses it, maybe he will lose his way in this mountain forest. Therefore, Zeng Yanliang followed the people in front of him while constantly using short daggers to make a signal where he passed.
There is a crescent moon in the sky, but the moonlight is tightly blocked by trees. The shadows of the trees shake, and the figures of the two martial artists in front of them are becoming more and more difficult to distinguish. They still kept walking into the mountains, and Zeng Yanliang even felt that they would never go back. After walking for about two hours in a row, the two martial artists finally stopped. They sat under a big tree to rest and took out some dry food and water bags from their arms to eat and drink.
Seeing such a scene, Zeng Yanliang finally knew that he had miscalculated.
They brought dry food and water, which means that they are ready for a long journey, but they don't bring anything, so there is no way to follow them for a long time. In this way, the previous efforts have been in vain.
Just when Zeng Yanliang was annoyed, there was a strange sound in the mountains and forests.
Zeng Yanliang raised his vigilance and flew to a big tree closest to him, quietly observing the movement around him. And the two martial artists seemed to feel something, put away the dry food and water, and looked around warily.
Soon, those noises became louder and louder. When someone appeared, Zeng Yanliang found that he and he had been surrounded by people.
The group of people who came covered their faces with black gauze. They held various weapons in their hands and slowly surrounded the two martial artists. The leader asked, "Who are you?"
The two martial artists looked at each other, as if they had hit some code. They pulled out their swords from their waists and pulled up their posture. One of them said loudly, "We are the martial artists of the Prime Minister's mansion. If you are a little self-aknowledged, please leave quickly, otherwise you won't have good fruit to eat!"
When those masked black veil heard this, they looked at each other, and several of them nodded. As soon as the two martial arts masters saw this situation, they knew that the other party knew their identity and deliberately came to them. The two men no longer talked to them and fought with them with their swords.
The two martial artists are good at kung fu, but the good tiger can't stand a group of wolves. Although the black-faced people on the opposite side are average, they also have some rules when fighting. They promote their strengths and avoid their weaknesses, and soon forced the two martial artists into a desperate situation. Seeing that the matter was not good, the two martial arts masters shouted at the same time, "Who the hell are you?" What do you want?"
Those black veil masked people didn't seem to dare to take it lightly at all, and they didn't mean to talk to the martial artists anymore. Everyone roared together, and the two martial artists could no longer resist, and both of them were captured alive.
After the two martial artists were blindfolded by this group of black veil masked people, one of the tall people stood out of the crowd. He looked up at a big tree in the distance and said loudly, "Brother in the tree, can you come down for a talk?"
Zeng Yanliang sighed and jumped down from the tree.
The speaker took a few steps forward and punched Zeng Yanliang, "I don't know where the brother is so leisurely. Come and see us to do business?"
Zeng Yanliang slowly approached the other party, held his fist, and said loudly, "What you have done in this business is unexpected. I'm just passing by and occasionally encountering it. I'm really sorry."
When Zeng Yanliang finished saying this, he had also walked only ten feet away from the man opposite. The man opposite looked at Zeng Yanliang carefully and was suddenly stunned. He frowned and muttered something, and then waved his hand to the people behind him.
Zeng Yanliang looked bad and hurriedly shouted, "Why do you have to do this? I have no grudge against you..."
Without his words, those people had already surrounded him. Zeng Yanliang knew that this battle was inevitable, so he had to set out his position to prepare for the battle. He didn't use weapons, because he knew that he was surrounded by so many people, and he couldn't win even if he had two hands and feet. Instead of fighting to the death, he might as well see what the other party's intentions were.
After a burst of fists and feet, Zeng Yanliang was knocked from the back. His eyes were black, and he fell down...
