Gu Zhouting returned to Dali Temple and Mu Li had cracked the secret message.
I saw it said that the Tonglin mine was exposed, the Majian ore had been secured, the price of medicinal materials had increased, and there was insufficient money in hand.
Haha, Shen Jingshan didn't know that the secret iron smelting workshop in Qinshan had been taken over, and Bai Wu was also in his hands. He asked Bai Wu to continue sending letters to Shen Jingshan, asking when the new batch of ore would arrive.
Shen Jingshan replied and asked Bai Wu to wait patiently.
It turned out that Shen Jingshan was not idle during this period and had secured Ma Jian's ore.
When Shen Jingshan mentioned medicinal materials, it just confirmed that the medicinal material dealer Jiang Shi was tracking was Shen Jingshan.
"Give this letter to Mr. Qi, he knows what to do." Gu Zhouting gave the letter to Zheng Guan.
He now wants to focus on the palace, leaving Shen Jingshan in charge of Qi Yu.
Zheng Guan took the order and left.
Gu Zhouting stood in front of the window with his hands folded, looking at the sky covered by dark clouds. It was gloomy and the wind and rain were coming.
Calculating the time, Wan Ning has been away from Beijing for six days, and he should have arrived at Wujun Mountain by now.
Wan Ning, you must come back before the Shu delegation leaves Beijing!
After Xiao Yan returned to the palace, he went to the imperial study to meet his father.
The emperor looked at his face: "Lost?"
"Yes, but don't be impatient, sir, there is still a game." Xiao Yan said.
The emperor leaned back in his chair and pinched his eyebrows tiredly: "It would be great if Shangguan Erlang was still here."
Shangguan Erlang's high-spirited appearance on the Cuju court is extremely nostalgic.
Xiao Yanruo pointed out: "If the Zhenbei Hou family were still there, how could the Dayuan people dare to be so rampant? I have been thinking recently that the accident on Qinshan Road was a little strange."
The emperor didn't think so. When he was heartbroken and angry, he directly issued an order to execute the defenders of Qinshan Road. Afterwards, he regretted it and issued an order to withdraw the execution, but it was still too late.
"Yes, the Shangguan family has guarded the Northern Territory for generations, protecting our country of Qi without worries. The last time I received a report from the Marquis of Zhenbei was when he came to Gubei to report that I was safe. Who knew that it was from the Marquis of Zhenbei to me? The last report." The emperor sighed.
Xiao Yan frowned slightly, always feeling that something was wrong, but couldn't explain it.
At this time, on the official road leading to the capital, two people were galloping on horseback. It was Jiang Wanningzheng and Taoist priest Wu Gu who were desperately rushing back.
Han Shu's horse was ridden by Wu Gu, so he had to find another group of horses, so he never went with them.
As the sky grew darker, Jiang Wanning slowed down and pointed at a little light shining through the darkness: "Master, there is an inn ahead, let's rest there tonight."
Wugou said: "That's fine, look at the wind, I'm afraid there will be heavy rain tonight."
The two of them arrived at the inn. There were no guests in the inn. Jiang Wanning asked for two rooms and asked the innkeeper to bring some food.
When going upstairs, a woman's cry and a man's curse came from a guest room.
"If you continue to cry and cry, seeking death and living, when you reach the Great Abyss, I will send you to the red tent."
"I won't go to the Great Abyss even if I die. You can kill me now."
"You think I don't dare?"
Then a clear sound of slapping sounded in the room.
"Disciple, don't mind your own business. Business is important." Wugu turned his head and saw that his disciple's pestle was not moving away, so he knew what his disciple wanted to do.
Jiang Wan Ning smiled: "I didn't want to care about it."
After putting down their luggage, the master and the apprentice went downstairs to eat, only to see a few Dayuan people drinking there.
Wugou found the seat farthest away from the Dayuan people, but the inn was not big, and he could still hear the Dayuan people talking no matter how far away they were.
They spoke Dayuan dialect, but Jiang Wanning could understand it.
One of them said: "Our trip was in vain. The people we are looking for are either doing business, visiting friends, or going on errands. What a coincidence, none of them are here."
Another said: "I suspect they were exposed."
"Da Qi's Beidou Division is a waste, are they so powerful?"
Jiang Wanning said in her heart, the one who is really exposed is yourselves. It sounds like you are a spy from Dayuan. These Dayuan people thought that no one could understand the Dayuan dialect and they spoke unscrupulously.
"I heard that Beidou Division changed its deacon last year. This person's surname is Qi. We didn't notice this person before. As soon as he entered Beidou Division, Beidou Division seemed to suddenly become more powerful. We have many secret spies in Dayuan. It’s in his hands, and the evidence is solid, so Prince Su He can’t even speak for them.”
Listening to this man's voice, he was the one who was cursing people in the room before.
"So, everyone should be careful in the future."
"No wonder Master Nuha gave up waiting for those people to come back. Master Nuha knows better."
"But this time, Master Nuha has gained something. That little lady is really pretty, and she is prettier than the ones we got before."
Nuha snorted: "What's the use of looking good? You're looking for bad luck for me all day long."
Jiang Wan Ning said: "Master, I forgot to feed the horse. I'll be back soon."
Wu Gu glanced at her: "Be quiet."
My disciple is just nosy.
Wugou also understands the Dayuan language. He originally thought that he was an ordinary Dayuan person, so he asked his disciple to leave him alone. Now that he knows that the other party is a Dayuan spy, it is another matter.
Jiang Wanning smiled, left the lobby, detoured to the yard behind, and looked up at the window on the second floor. It was fine, the window was open.
Jiang Wan Ning took out a towel and covered it, pointed her toes, stepped on the wall to gain strength, jumped high and jumped into the window.
In the past few nights, the master would give her exercises to force out poison. If not to say that he was so powerful, the healing effect of the exercises was better than the number of medicinal baths she took. She now felt as light as a swallow.
Of course it's still far from her peak.
Jiang Wan Ning jumped into the house and immediately saw Song Yun curled up and tied up on the ground.
She knew it was Song Yun when she heard the voice before.
I feel strange. Didn't Song Yun return to Jiangcheng with the Song family? How could it fall into the hands of the Dayuan people?
At this moment, Song Yun had disheveled hair, disheveled clothes, her face was swollen from being beaten, and a piece of dirty cloth was stuffed in her mouth, making her look miserable.
Song Yun heard the noise and opened her eyes, only to see a masked man standing in front of her. Song Yun struggled to get up, but she was tied so tightly that she couldn't get up at all, like a fish stranded on the shore, her throat was There was a cry for help.
She didn't care who this person was, as long as he could rescue her from the Dayuan people, she was willing to work for him in her lifetime.
Jiang Wan Ning came to her side and squatted down, lowering her voice and said: "I will rescue you, but not now, I have to find a chance, understand?"
Song Yun nodded quickly, tears streaming down her face.
Jiang Wan Ning stuffed a small porcelain bottle into her hand: "This is a drug. When the Dayuan people go to bed at night, just open the porcelain bottle."
Jiang Wan Ning then jumped out of the window again.
Song Yun had an unreal feeling like a dream, but the cold touch in her hands was real.
She prayed to God countless times to save her, but this man really appeared.
She was saved.
Song Yun was trembling with excitement.
