Leader Hong nodded slowly and said: "That's fine. Since the little emperor has his mind set on you, Ah Quan, then I will capture his Chen Yuanyuan. This is called tit for tat." Leader Hong spoke in a low voice. , blurry. Then he said to everyone in the hall: "Which of you is willing to arrest Chen Yuanyuan for me?" There was silence in the hall, and no one dared to answer.
Mrs. Hong said angrily: "With so many people, no one is willing to be loyal to the leader and make contributions to the leader?" Leader Hong's face also darkened, and he said coldly: "It seems that the sect is full of old and confused people. , it’s really time to straighten things out and introduce new things." An old man in yellow clothes with narrow eyes and a sharp face bowed and said: "To the leader and madam, going to Pingxi Palace to arrest Chen Yuanyuan is a big deal, and we need a lucky person. It’s only appropriate to do it.”
Mrs. Hong said with a cold face: "In your opinion, who among our sect is blessed enough?" The old man said: "The one with the greatest blessing in our sect is naturally the leader, followed by my wife. But we cannot work for two people. The emperor personally took action. The second most blessed person was given to the father-in-law first. At a young age, the father-in-law Xiang was already a popular person around the emperor, and there was a faint red light in the Yintang. He was so blessed that no one could compare with him, including the leader and his wife. Outmatched."
Xiang Yan was surprised when he heard someone recommended him, but then he thought again: "Why should I stay in the Shenlong Sect? The Shenlong Sect definitely didn't capture me to let me be a guest. Even if they don't kill me, they probably won't. I live a good life. Besides, I lied to Master Hong that Kangxi wanted to arrest Mrs. Hong and enter the palace. If Master Hong finds out that I am lying to him, he will have to chop me into pieces. For safety reasons, it is better to find Wei Xiaobao as soon as possible. Now they Asking me to catch Chen Yuanyuan is a good opportunity to escape."
Leader Hong twisted his beard and smiled and said: "But what ability does he have to catch Chen Yuanyuan, a little kid?" The old man said: "Didn't the emperor already send people to arrest Chen Yuanyuan? After the emperor's people catch him, Isn’t it okay to ask Eunuch Xiang to do some tricks and send people directly to Shenlong Island instead of sending them to the palace?"
Xiang Yan was in high spirits: "What a good idea! I was just thinking about what reason to ask Master Hong to send me to catch Chen Yuanyuan, but I didn't expect that this old man would come up with such a good idea. After hearing what he said, the task of catching Chen Yuanyuan was It has to be me. I finally have a chance to get out of the island and escape."
Mrs. Hong smiled at Xiang Yan and said, "Little brother, are you willing to capture Chen Yuanyuan for the leader?" With the great blessing of being a Taoist, there is still some hope of catching Chen Yuanyuan." Master Hong nodded. Mrs. Hong also said happily: "Little brother, I know that you are smart and blessed. I am afraid that you are sent by God to help the leader accomplish this great thing. You can choose as many people as you want to help when you go to arrest people." "
Xiang Yan thought to himself: "I don't really want to help you arrest people. My purpose is to save myself. If I bring a few people there, won't it cause trouble? It's better to bring a few people with no skills, so that it will be easier to deal with when the time comes." Said: "This matter is not trivial. I want to go back to the palace to discuss it with Xiaobao first. If there are too many people, the secret may be leaked. I want to select one or two young female disciples to come over and let them dress up as palace maids, so that it will be more convenient for them to act in the palace."
Mrs. Hong said: "Is the Xiaobao you are talking about Xiao Guizi's Eunuch Gui? Xiao Guizi is the most popular person around the emperor. Will he betray the emperor and help you arrest him?" Xiang Yan said: "Xiao Bao is from Yangzhou. He has an ancestor who died in the 'Ten Days in Yangzhou', and he has no good feelings towards the Tatars. Besides, he has the best relationship with me, so I should be able to convince him."
A black-bearded Taoist in his fifties said: "I'm afraid these little girls are of no use. As long as the leader and his wife allow it, you can choose whatever you want." Xiang Yan said: "Thank you, Taoist Master. I'm just a member of the sect. I don’t know anyone, so I don’t know who to pick!”
A scribe who was about forty years old and had an amiable expression said: "To inform the leader's wife, I would like to follow Eunuch Xiang. Thanks to the leader and his wife Hong Fu, I might be able to make some small contributions to the leader." Leader Hong nodded and said: " Lu Gaoxuan is wise and resourceful, and has great martial arts skills. Very good, very good, you can just follow Xiang Yan." Another Tuo Tuo said: "To the leader and madam, I am willing to accompany Eunuch Xiang to the capital to work for the leader."
Leader Hong nodded and said: "There are too many people. I am afraid that my behavior will be revealed, so I will let you two go together. Everything you do and do must obey Xiang Yan's orders and must not violate it." The two men bowed and said: "Subordinates I obey." Mrs. Hong said, "Xiang Yan, Lu Gaoxuan and Fat Toutuo will stay, and the rest will leave." Everyone bowed and left.
Xiang Yan glanced at the tutu and saw that the tutu was extremely tall, at least a head and a half taller than an ordinary person. But he was extremely thin, his face was skinny and boney, and his eyes were sunken, like a zombie. He has long hair hanging down his shoulders, and a copper band on his head restrains his long hair. He wears a cloth robe, loose and loose, like a clothes hanger hanging on the floor. When Xiang Yan saw him like this, he felt a little scared and didn't dare to look more, so he turned his head hurriedly. Is this guy really a Fat Tou Tuo? Did Mrs. Hong really call the wrong person?
Master Hong took out a black porcelain bottle from his side, poured three vermilion pills out, and said, "You three bravely went to the capital to do business. I highly commend you and gave each of you a 'Baotou Yijin Pill'." Fat Touduo He and Lu Gaoxuan bent their right knees to thank him, took the pills, and swallowed them. Xiang Yan followed suit and followed suit. Take the "Leopard Yijin Pill" and swallow it immediately.
