Chapter 556: Deep in the mud
It is said that Chen Long pretended to be a pig and eat the tiger, and saved Yue Ji from Erhe Shaoge. Although Yue Ji was confused about Chen Long's identity, he still accidentally revealed important information about the third son of Han in Qingfeng Village.
Chen Long originally thought that Qingfeng Village was near the outside of the city, so he mentioned it to Erhe Shaoge. Unexpectedly, Erhe Shaoge was shocked and said: "Wrong, wrong! This Qingfeng Village is in the north of the inner city. Because the original site was included in the new expansion The city wall, so I haven’t had time to change the name. Han Qiong’s ten thousand soldiers and horses are actually in the city. "
Chen Long was also surprised when he heard this. If these ten thousand people were stationed in the city, there would be almost no power to compete with them. Could it be that Han Qiong was the one who blocked the road in the periphery yesterday? Who was talking to Yue Jiye?
Chen Long knew Han Qiong's name, so he naturally looked up the information about the five tigers of the Han family in Guang Nao. Han Sui's surname was Han, and Han De's surname was also Han. Could it be that these two people are related by blood?
In any case, the signs of turmoil in Tianshui City are becoming more and more obvious. There is already a trap to use the Hundred Tribes Conference to eliminate dissidents. Han Sui and Yadan may be behind it. As for who is using whom, it is hard to say.
Chen Long felt deeply trapped in the mud and felt obliged to do so. Unexpectedly, Diao Chan hadn't been rescued yet, so another big thing had to be done. If left unchecked and hundreds of ethnic groups form an alliance to invade the Central Plains, it will soon become a nightmare for the Chinese nation.
The special operations team members are still tracking Yan Xing, maybe there will be good news tomorrow. While Chen Long was lamenting, he remembered that he had a date with Jiang Wei tomorrow and couldn't help but cheer up: "Brothers Erhe Shaoge, you can go out to eat on the street during the day. Han Qiong will not dare to blatantly massacre you. But After Yue Ji returns, he will definitely have to report to his superiors, and there may be some tricks on him that we have to guard against!"
Erhe Shaoge suddenly smiled and said: "Since we have resisted Yue Ji's assassination plot, I'm afraid they will not harm us again. Otherwise, how can Yadan integrate the two ethnic groups? How can tens of thousands of Qiang people from hundreds of tribes of my ethnic group do this? Agree? I will send someone to report this to King Mi Dang as soon as possible."
Chen Long thought about it, hiding was not an option, he raised his eyebrows and said goodbye: "That's fine, brother, I'll take my leave here. I will attend the Zheng Xuan Conference in two days, inform each other on everything, be more careful!" After that, he turned around and left.
Ehe Shaoge obviously knew who Zheng Xuan was. Hearing this, he said, "Brother Huaiyang, I didn't expect you to be interested in this. But it seems that I heard Yadan mention that he also wants to attend Master Zheng Xuan's lecture in person."
Chen Long was shocked and said with a smile on his face: "Brother, I am interested in competing for Tianshui Gang leader's qualification to compete for a bride, so I went to try my luck. I didn't expect to meet the elegant Prime Minister Dan of the Qiang people. Brother, I am afraid I can't help but take action. "After that, he burst into laughter.
Erhe Shaoge laughed a few times, and then said seriously: "Brother Huaiyang, don't underestimate Yadan! His poisonous tricks are several times more poisonous than a wasp's sting! Also, he carries two He is a master guard, known as the second elder of Kunlun. I heard that his martial arts are unfathomable and not inferior to Han De! Brother, you must be careful!"
Saying goodbye to Erhe Shaoge, Chen Long finally returned to his own greenhouse. It was already approaching dawn. The area around the greenhouse was quiet and there was no one around. Yue Ji's troops had already withdrawn their sentries, presumably because Yue Ji was missing and no one was interested in this lonely greenhouse anymore.
Too many things happened on this day, and Chen Long, who was tough as hell, also felt a little tired. He lay down on the Datong bunk and just wanted to squint for a while, when Lu Chang climbed over along the bunk and whispered in Chen Long's ear: "Most brothers , they are all taking turns monitoring Yan Xing and Zhang Ji's city lord's mansion."
Chen Long was most concerned about Yan Xing and nodded: "Have you found anyone in contact with Yan Xing?"
Lu Chang shook his head and said: "Yan Xing locked himself in the inn, and even had his meals brought to the room by the waiters. No one has come into contact with him yet."
Chen Long was slightly disappointed, but the time was still short. As long as someone came into contact with Yan Xing, they should be able to detect clues about Li Ru. Then he asked: "Where is the City Lord's Mansion?"
Lu Chang said hurriedly: "The City Lord's Mansion is connected to Zhang Ji's Mansion, separated only by a deep alley. However, because of the vast area and the large number of guards, the brothers had to proceed with caution. They first conducted on-site investigations and tried to draw a picture of the City Lord's Mansion and Zhang Ji's Mansion as soon as possible. The map of Zhang Ji's residence can be used to determine Li Ru's possible destination."
Chen Long nodded slightly and asked, "Are there any signs of purchasing food in large quantities?" The special forces naturally have a complete method to monitor the enemy's movements. Observing the enemy's food purchase is a very important part of it. It is similar to counting the number of people in the stove. Wonderful, there are often unexpected gains.
Lu Chang shook his head and said: "Time is too tight. There are no less than hundreds of servants in the City Lord's Mansion and Zhang Ji's Mansion, and there are many trucks coming in and out. They seem to be preparing supplies for some important meeting, so there is no way to judge at the moment."
Chen Long thought of those heavy carriages transporting weapons. It is true that the city lord's palace will dispatch various supplies in the past few days in preparation for Zheng Xuan's Lecture Conference and the Hundred Tribes Conference. Under the current situation, it is difficult to detect Li Ru and his party from the food shipments. specific trends.
Thinking of Zheng Xuan's lecture conference, Chen Long got a headache again. Not to mention that he knew nothing about Confucianism, just hearing Zheng Xuan's name already made him feel that it was mysterious. What's more, he had not even obtained the qualification to sign up to participate, and he still had to go to this matter. Please ask Zheng Gan or Ma Yunlu to handle it.
Chen Long, whom Lu often saw, seemed to be wandering around again. He was lying next to Chen Long and started to fight vigorously. Chen Long slapped him awake and said, "Go and reassign the manpower immediately. In addition to continuing to monitor the original target, you must also Monitor the movements of Han Qiong's army in Qingfeng Village in the north of the city. There is also a big house in the northwest corner. We also need to strengthen surveillance and find out who lives there now." After that, he roughly stated the address of the big house that Yue Ji visited yesterday. Once again, Lu Chang understood the idea, yawned a few times, and said in the local dialect: "Brother Huaiyang, there are more and more surveillance places, brothers, we are running out of manpower!"
Chen Long was amused by Lu Chang's downbeat tone, and waved his hand to send Lu Chang away quickly. He also needed to rest for a while, otherwise it would be unsightly to be overtired.
Lu Chang led the people out quietly at dawn and night. Chen Long finally put his head on the pillow and was about to abandon all information and have a good rest. However, he found that the four books and five classics were all flooding up in his mind. As for Zheng Xuan's annotations on the classics, it seemed as if Thousands of crawlers are crawling around in my brain. Chen Long lamented in his heart and realized what he was most worried about. In order to compete for Ma Yunlu's favor and gain the qualification to compete for Ma Yunlu, he had to practice metaphysics, so he had no time to sleep!
After a head full of thoughts for a day, Chen Long finally fell asleep in confusion. The fog came heavily in his sleep. What he could clearly see was Diao Chan's pair of misty tearful eyes, which looked at him brightly in the fog, as if looking forward to a quick return. Going to the love of your life tells you all kinds of reluctance and sorrow of separation. Chan'er, where are you? Still fine?
If you want to know what happens next, listen to the explanation next time.
