Over at Louguantai, Yang Yue has always sent people to guard the building. If there is any trouble, he will know it immediately.
At present, it seems that Lou Guantai is the only clue they have.
Of course he wouldn't think that three Taoist priests could accomplish that.
Were others involved? Does Qi Hui know? These are mysteries that need to be solved.
Two days later, Yang Jian came back, and with him was a middle-aged Taoist priest.
The Taoist robes worn by this Taoist priest are quite different from those worn by Qi Hui. To put it simply, one is noble and the other is simple.
However, this Taoist priest surnamed Chu was of the same generation as Qi Hui. He was a disciple of Dawei Yiyanda Zhenren of Xuandu Temple in Daxing City. He was sent by Emperor Yang Jian to investigate the affairs of Lou Guantai.
As soon as Taoist Chu arrived at the camp, Xue Jun, the Minister of Punishment, had already heard the news and came over. Only then did he know that Yang Yue had obtained some clues.
"Since Brother Yang knew that Taoist Louguantai was involved, why didn't he send someone to inform Xue?"
Xue Jun somewhat wanted to raise an army to investigate.
He and Yang Yue were from aristocratic families and relied on connections to get in. Their usual titles would never include official titles.
We all know each other's basics and there's no need to make nonsense.
"Didn't I tell you just now?" Yang Yuelao said with a nonchalant smile.
Xue Jun snorted coldly, stopped talking to the other party, and started talking to that Chu Zhenjun.
In fact, when Xue Jun arrived at Yang Ming's camp, he had already saluted and said hello to Yang Ming, because he and his brother Xue Zhou had met the young highness many times in the palace, so they naturally knew his status in the hearts of the two saints. .
Yang Ming was also impressed by the pockmarked face in official uniform. He had seen it at Yang Yong's greeting gift during the winter solstice. That pockmarked face was really unforgettable.
But at that time, he didn't know that the other party was Xue Zhou's clan brother.
Although Xue Jun's face was pitted, he at least looked upright. On the other hand, Yang Yue looked like a treacherous and cunning person.
"Okay, okay, now that Chu Zhenjun has arrived, let's investigate the case as soon as possible,"
Yang Yue got on his horse, nodded to Yang Ming with a whip in hand, and then headed to Lou Guantai with the rest of the Criminal Department.
This time Yang Ming didn't go because Yang Xian was back and he was still waiting for Yang Xian's explanation.
In the camp, Yang Xian deliberately sent his sister Yang Chan away, and then he hesitated and smiled awkwardly at Yang Ming:
"Second brother is really unspeakable."
Sure enough, what did your boy really do to disgrace Miss Pei?
Is the Overlord ready to bow? It shouldn't be...
Yang Ming did not ask directly, but said: "Does grandma even know?"
"Yeah," Yang Xian nodded: "How dare I hide it from my grandmother."
"Then what? What did grandma say?" Yang Ming asked.
"Alas..." Yang Jian suddenly let out a long sigh and said with a discouraged look on his face: "Grandma didn't say anything, nor did she reprimand me, but the way grandma looked at me at that time, I knew that she meant a lot to me. It’s disappointing.”
"I really don't want to see that look again..." As he said that, Yang Xian held his head in pain.
"oh......."
Yang Ming had no intention of comforting the other party. He had to bear the responsibility for what he did.
"What's going on?"
.......
When Yang Ming left the camp, Yang Chan, who was guarding outside, ran over immediately and asked:
"I'm really worried. Second brother hasn't said anything to me for so many days. Tell me what he told you."
Yang Ming smiled and said, "Sister, don't ask anymore. This incident is a scar for him. Why don't you expose it again?"
"Okay, you're hiding it from me too? Don't tell me anything in the future,"
After that, Yang Chan left angrily.
Yang Ming was not in the mood to coax her, not to mention Yang Chan's carefree temperament, he would be fine in a few days.
That night, Yang Ming left the camp as usual, climbed a mountain not far away and started practicing boxing.
This time he did not come out alone, but asked Aunt Lou to follow him from a distance.
After Yang Xun's accident, he no longer had the courage to go out alone.
People need to learn to be afraid, especially those with his status, and they also need to know how to be self-aware.
He would never think that he could be smarter than Yang Yue by relying on the knowledge accumulated in his previous life. The ancients were not as naive as described in the textbooks.
After the beating, Yang Ming sat on the grass to rest, while recalling what his second-in-command, Yang Jian, said in the tent.
A total of forty-nine people were missing in this incident.
Where everyone is found is different.
But according to Yang Xian, when he woke up, Pei Shuying was beside him and was still in a coma.
Of course, Yang Zhen would not do anything wrong while the person was unconscious. Instead, he carried Pei Shuying to a sheltered mountain col, picked up some hay and spread it on her cold body, then lit a bonfire and waited quietly. Waiting for the other person to wake up.
At this point in the story, there seems to be a hint of a hero saving a beauty. If that's the case, maybe Yang Jian and Pei Shuying can really get together.
But where they were at that time, there was no water source around them, birds and animals were extinct, and there were not even wild fruits that could satisfy their hunger.
Yang Jian knew at that time that he could not wait any longer, otherwise they would die of thirst or starvation.
So he carried Pei Shuying on his back and headed due north with difficulty.
At this time, Pei Shuying was like a drunk person, her whole body was limp, which made Yang Jian extremely strenuous. In addition, there were no roads in the mountains and there were thorns everywhere. Yang Jian had to stop and catch his breath almost every step of the way.
This situation lasted for about half a day, and Pei Shuying finally woke up.
Yang Jian was overjoyed, thinking that as long as the two of them supported each other, they would be able to go out sooner or later.
But in fact, Pei Shuying was extremely weak and had a high fever when she woke up. Not only was it impossible to relieve Yang Jian's pressure, but it actually increased Yang Jian's burden.
But Yang Jian did not complain at that time, but stopped and walked, continuing to walk north with Pei Shuying on his back.
It took a whole day for the two of them to travel less than five miles.
Pei Shuying was already devastated at the time. Her physical condition was actually not that bad, but the pampered daughter thought she was going to die and even said she was willing to die with Yang Jian.
Yang Jian didn't want to die, but he knew that if he continued to carry Pei Shuying on his back, he would not be able to get out.
So he gritted his teeth, said "I'm sorry", and left alone to the north.
In fact, the place where Yang Jian was last found was less than three miles away from where Pei Shuying was found.
In other words, after walking three miles alone, Yang Jian fainted again in the mountains due to exhaustion caused by lack of water and rice for many days.
Yang Ming couldn't help but sigh, it's really a trick of fate.
If the two of them had been discovered a day, no, even half a day earlier, they might have been able to facilitate a marriage between the Jin Palace and Hedong Pei.
Pity.......
Yang Ming understood Pei Shuying's resentment towards Yang Jian.
At that time, Pei Shuying was probably already obsessed with Yang Jian, so she hated the latter for his final abandonment and said those words that she would never meet again in this life.
Yang Ming felt that no one was right or wrong in this matter.
This is why Dugu Jialuo did not reprimand Yang Jian, because Yang Jian made the choice that Dugu Hou believed was the right choice.
As for Yang Jian, he simply misunderstood Dugu Hou's eyes.
Yang Jian blames himself for his mistakes, and Pei Shuying hates her for her love.
So why did the person who kidnapped them do this? Yang Ming seemed to have grasped something.
