"The emperor's secret envoy?" Li Jiangyao was stunned for a moment, then sneered: "Do you treat me like a three-year-old child? In order to save your life, you made up such a ridiculous story."
Seeing that the other party did not believe it, Yan Chongxi calmly took out a silver Qilin Talisman from his arms and said loudly: "Dadu protector, this waist badge was given by the emperor. I will never deceive you."
Li Jiangyao's eyesight was extremely strong, and even if the sky was dark, it did not affect his ability to clearly see the objects in Yan Chongxi's hands.
That's right, that's the imperial guard's waistband that passes through the imperial palace!
"You..." Li Jiangyao glanced at the people around him and asked doubtfully: "Since you are a secret agent of the imperial court, how dare you reveal your identity so openly?"
Yan Chongxi laughed: "They all know my identity, what do I have to hide? Not only that, I also serve as the watcher of the Jin Palace, specifically responsible for spying on business news in various places in Jiangbei as the head of the guild. Jianhua and Li Yan provided information."
As he spoke, he took out a spy token from the rebel Huben Camp and showed it to Li Jiangyao.
Li Jiangyao instantly understood that the smug guy in front of him was actually a double agent!
Yan Chong liked to take his time and said: "Daduhu, I am in the enemy's camp, making false promises with the rebels, in order to carry out the emperor's secret mission, so it is inevitable that I will be slandered by the young people. You are the mainstay of the imperial court, but you must not be raped. People are deceived and do things that make their relatives angry and their enemies happy."
As soon as these words came out, Liu Deng, who was standing next to Li Jiangyao, was shocked and quickly explained: "Dad, Protector, I didn't know the identity of Yan Chongxi before. I was just discussing the matter and had no intention of helping the rebels!"
Of course Li Jiangyao knew what was going on.
Yan Chongxi is not at all like what he said, a lone hero who went deep into the enemy camp. Instead, he accumulated huge wealth and connections through some shady tricks and plunders, and then used his hands and eyes to make bets on both ends of the court and the rebels. Repeatedly jump and swim between them.
The secret agents of the Forbidden Army and the watchers of the Huben Camp are just the cover of his identity to the outside world. The real purpose is to use all these conditions to protect his criminal activities of annexing land and human trafficking.
Li Jiangyao smiled coldly and continued to grab Yan Chongxi's seven-inch spanking: "I don't care what special identity or excuse you have. I must take these Japanese away today. If you really want the court, then be obedient. "
Yan Chongxi couldn't help but complain secretly.
The Japanese envoy Zechuan Taro came to Ba Tou Ao to have a secret meeting with him this time. He carried a major secret with him. Once it falls into the hands of Li Jiangyao, his shady details will be completely exposed. He will never think of Li Jiangyao again in the future. Stand in front of Bing.
Therefore, no matter what, we cannot let the other party take Taro Sawakawa away!
He took a deep breath and said, "Dadu protector, is there no need to discuss it? Even if I have a special mission, you still have to be so domineering?"
Li Jiangyao smiled: "Yan Chongxi, to tell you the truth, I am here specifically for you today. Otherwise, I should not be able to easily reveal my identity when I go deep into enemy territory."
"Have you ever offended the Protector?" Yan Chongxi asked doubtfully, "If there is really something wrong with your words and actions that has inadvertently offended the Protector, please speak up and give me advice. Chongxi should kowtow to apologize."
Li Jiangyao waved his hand gently: "You have no personal grudges against me."
"What's that for?" Yan Chongxi said anxiously: "Serving in the rebel camp is just for convenience, but it is not really a betrayal of the imperial court."
"It has nothing to do with this." Li Jiangyao said calmly: "I am looking for you because of the people who have been harmed by you."
Yan Chongxi was greatly surprised: "People? You mean those poor people?"
Li Jiangyao glanced at Liu Deng next to him and nodded slightly: "Yes, he is the poor guy you said. However, our parents and family members in the Xinjiang Army are almost all such poor guys, so you have offended us. "
Yan Chongxi was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He never expected that Li Jiangyao, the majestic commander-in-chief of thousands of troops and a marquis of one side, would actually risk being exposed behind enemy lines for the sake of those insignificant ants and untouchables, and insist on coming to seek his misfortune.
Yan Chongxi's face became more and more gloomy. He thought a few times and suddenly said to Taro Sawakawa beside him: "You cover me and leave! Quick! Others, stop them!"
Having said that, Yan Chongxi showed great lightness skills and jumped back directly.
Taro Sawakawa reacted quickly and quickly swung his body to pursue Yan Chongxi. At the same time, he did not forget to loudly order his ronin to stop the attack.
As soon as the two of them moved, Li Jiangyao also rushed out suddenly. Xing Luo Dao pointed out before: "Kill me!"
In an instant, more than a dozen white-robed soldiers swung their swords forward, like tigers entering a flock of sheep, and rushed straight into the thugs, killing them.
With one move, Li Jiangyao leaped over the Milky Way, slashing down a sharp sword ronin as fast as lightning, and then used a straight star strike to slash another Japanese pirate until he spurted blood and staggered. From his point of view, the backs of Yan Chongxi and Taro Sawakawa had just turned around the screen wall leading to the backyard. The distance was not too far, so he quickly put his feet on the ground and chased after them.
Unexpectedly, Li Jiangyao was stunned as soon as he turned around the screen wall.
Just on the steps of the second entrance to the courtyard, there was a corpse lying prone. It was none other than Taro Sawakawa, the Japanese envoy.
Li Jiangyao stopped, stepped forward to investigate, and found that Zechuan had been stabbed in the chest. A knife force containing Yin power penetrated his skin, shattered his heart, and killed him on the spot.
Obviously, this is Yan Chongxi's handiwork.
Li Jiangyao cursed secretly and continued to chase towards the backyard. But Yan Chongxi's movements were extremely fast, and he was very familiar with the terrain of his house, so he quickly escaped without a trace.
"Damn, you're careless." Li Jiangyao said to Han Wenhao who came for reinforcements: "Yan Chongxi's thugs are not very skilled in martial arts. I didn't expect that he himself is a master, and he is so cunning and ruthless. He can slip away without caring about himself at all. His lair, even the Japanese pirate named Zechuan was silenced by him."
Han Wenhao responded: "It is indeed ruthless! Protector General, all the enemies in the front yard have been killed, and the brothers are conducting a comprehensive search."
Li Jiangyao nodded, glanced at the house behind, and ordered: "Go and see if there are any people imprisoned by him. If there are any, they will be rescued and released. If gold and silver treasures are found, let Liu Deng help distribute them." Poor people in this town, then you set fire to this place and burn it down for me!"
-
Because there was too much noise in Batoua Town, Li Jiangyao and others did not dare to stay here any longer. After the Yan family's house was caught in a raging fire, they got on their horses and galloped toward the southeast.
However, there seemed to be a thorn in Li Jiangyao's heart that he could not let go of for a long time.
The settlement with Yan Chongxi was originally just out of a moment of anger, not only to eradicate the bullies for the local people, but also to teach a lesson and warn those traitors who colluded with the Japanese bandits. However, he never expected that Yan Chongxi's extremely special identity, hidden martial arts, and the Japanese secret envoy who was brutally killed suddenly made the whole matter become complicated and confusing.
As Li Jiangyao galloped, he thought to himself: If it was just some shady transactions, Yan Chongxi shouldn't be so nervous. Because at that time, he, the chief protector of the Xinjiang Army, had clearly determined that what the Yan family was doing was despicable and dirty business, so it actually didn't matter whether Yan Chongxi was quibbling or whether Taro Sawakawa was caught.
However, Yan Chongxi left the Wan Guan family property alone, and even when he was escaping, he did not forget to kill the Japanese envoy first. Apparently, it was because Taro Sawakawa had a more deadly secret that must not be known to Li Jiangyao.
So, what kind of secret is this?
And which identity of Yan Chongxi is related to this fatal secret? Is he the secret envoy of Emperor Li Bing? Or a spy from the rebel Huben camp?
Li Jiangyao had no clue about this.
However, being in a cruel fighting environment for many years has given him a keen sense similar to a sixth sense. Li Jiangyuan vaguely felt that this secret must be of great importance and may even affect the development of the world situation.
Therefore, he must find out!
Thinking of this, Li Jiangyao immediately tightened the reins with both hands, causing the galloping horse to stop.
When the guards saw this, they quickly imitated him.
Han Wenhao shouted the commands "Yu" and "Yi" to stop the horse, and asked curiously: "Dadu Protector, what's wrong?"
Li Jiangyao frowned, as if he was asking him, but also saying to himself: "Where will Yan Chongxi escape after his lair is taken away? In other words, what action will he take?"
"Yan Chongxi?" Han Wenhao couldn't help but be confused: "Are you still thinking about that profiteer?"
Li Jiangyao glanced at him and said calmly: "Yan Chongxi is by no means as simple as a profiteer and bully. Think about it, which profiteer in the world is qualified to wear a silver unicorn talisman? At the same time, he also carries the token of the rebel Huben camp. ?”
Han Wenhao nodded when he heard this: "It is indeed extraordinary. When it comes to riding on the wall and eating both ends, that guy is definitely a master."
Li Jiangyao thought for a moment and analyzed: "When we knocked on the door, Yan Chongxi should have been meeting with Taro Sawakawa, and after that, all the Japanese pirates were killed and no one escaped. In other words, no matter what happened between them, No matter what we talked about, the resulting news couldn’t be sent back to the Japanese pirates in time, right?”
"That's right!" Han Wenhao responded: "Including Zechuan, the line of Japanese pirates was cut off by us by accident."
Li Jiangyao nodded slightly: "If you were Yan Chongxi and the matter was extremely important, what would you do next?"
Han Wenhao thought for a while: "I must regain contact with the Japanese pirates as soon as possible in order to continue to advance the matter."
"That's right!" A smile appeared on Li Jiangyao's face: "Wen Hao, let's not go forward, but turn around and go back to find out their secrets!"
