The reason why Fang Qi acted like this was actually to cover up his inner fear.

In the fourth year of Kaiping, he received instructions from Fang Yunhu and spent a lot of time, energy and money to get close to Geng Yi. This was also a choice after repeated observations. Among Pei Yue's seven personal followers, the others were difficult for various reasons.

To win over, only the honest and honest Geng Yi can use it.

But after they found Fang Rui's body, Geng Yi never fell for the trick again.

Fang Qi was not in a hurry because he believed that his judgment was not wrong. Geng Yi would never dare to take the initiative to confess everything to Pei Yue, so there would still be room for use. In subsequent contacts, Geng Yi never let go, and Fang Qi never let go.

For the sake of long-term consideration, Qi left a contact method for the other party.

Today, he suddenly received a message that Geng Yi wanted to meet. Fang Qi knew very well what a critical moment it was and naturally did not dare to neglect it. Of course, he was not stupid enough to lead the other party to his lair, so he went to an unrelated place in Nancheng

We met at a wine shop. After that, he walked around the city and repeatedly confirmed that he was not being followed before returning here.

However, after hearing Jing Chu declare his family status, Fang Qi realized Pei Yue's strength.

Even if a person like him is not top-notch in martial arts, as an experienced craftsman, he will never be easily caught by someone's tail.

Unexpectedly, Pei Yue could actually ask Jing Chu to take action in person. He was one of the nine heads of the Taishitai Pavilion, and he was also the extremely important head of the Kun Department who was in charge of detailed affairs in Kyoto.

Nor will he be scornful. This shows that his young master may have underestimated Pei Yue's energy. Fang Qi wanted to spread the news, but Jing Chu stood calmly in front of him, and he knew that this could only be an illusion.

Therefore, he continued to sarcastically say to Geng Yi: "You just accepted ten thousand taels of silver from me this morning, sold your Marquis for nothing, and turned around and betrayed me to show your loyalty. Liang people are indeed shameless!"

"

Geng Yi's head became lower and lower. He was not good at speaking to begin with. What's more, Pei Yue had already made it clear that he wanted to drive him out, and his life was already gloomy.

Deng Zai stepped forward and punched Fang Qi in the face, knocking out half of his teeth.

"Bitch thief! I'll kill you!" Fang Zhen beside him roared and struggled.

Deng Zai ignored him at all, turned to Geng Yi and said in a deep voice: "Stand up straight, don't embarrass the young master."

Geng Yi immediately straightened his back and looked at him with gratitude.

Deng Zai then gave up and turned to Jing Chu and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Master Jing. My young master will definitely come to thank you someday."

Jing Chu smiled gently and said: "It's just an internal matter, and Marquis Pei doesn't need to be polite. Brother Deng also please inform Marquis Pei of this matter as soon as possible, and reassure him that there will be no chaos in the capital. Taige will move south this time."

Dig out all the details."

Deng Zai saluted and said, "Thank you, sir. I'll take my leave."

Jing Chu nodded and said, "I won't send it off."

Deng Zai and Geng Yi left quickly.

…

Eastern suburbs, the original site of Green Willow Village.

Pei Yue built a new Green Willow Village in the north of Kyoto. After moving all the farmers there, the original village and the three thousand acres of fertile land were returned to Pei Taijun. At the same time, he also gave a large sum of gold, silver and jewelry as a thank you gift.

The gentleman sent it to Dingguo Mansion.

Of course, this place will not be deserted. The Pei family has already sent new village heads and farmers. However, compared with when Pei Yue was here, the village now seems stagnant and lacks the atmosphere of prosperity and vitality.

In the open space near the desolate forest southeast of Zhuangzi, more than two hundred knights were resting on the spot. Pei Yue held a note in his hand and looked calm and determined.

"Actually, you never thought about saving Nan Qin, right?"

Unexpectedly, Shen Danmo was also here. At this moment, she was looking at Pei Yue with a smile, and the joy in her eyebrows was clearly revealed.

Pei Yue replied calmly: "Yes."

"Um?"

Shen Danmo's analysis was blocked abruptly, and he immediately pursed his lips and made a rising tone from his nasal cavity.

Deng Zai, who was standing next to him, seemed not to hear anything.

Pei Yue looked at him and asked: "In other words, the exposed secret agents of Southern Zhou are planning to attack the Guangping Marquis Mansion tonight?"

Deng Zai replied: "Yes, young master. They thought that all the guards of the Hou Mansion had left the city and there was no defense there, so they started daydreaming."

Pei Yue sighed softly: "There are hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the Tai Pavilion. Talents like Master Jing are not uncommon. Kyoto can naturally rest easy. No wonder Master Shen is as stable as a mountain and backhandedly sent this eldest lady over to make it more difficult for us."

Shen Danmo's eyebrows were raised slightly, and she said loudly: "Pei Yue, what did you say?"

Pei Yue ignored her and continued to give instructions to Deng Zai: "Go to the pigeonhouse over at Zhuangzi to fly the carrier pigeons, tell Wei Xiao, the commander of the Longxiang Guards, and ask him to withdraw the defense line in the Pingyuan Town area, and mobilize an army to rush to the company immediately. Anxian City, set up blockades at various important passages south of Yuejiang Tower. The remaining troops move south, from Pingyuan Prefecture in the west to Moyun Prefecture in the east, and must block all southbound passages in Yongzhou. In short, they cannot be let go within three days. Anyone suspected."

"Yes, young master." Deng Zai agreed, then turned and left.

Shen Danmo seemed to have lost his temper and asked curiously: "Aren't you going to Yuejiang Tower to save Gu Fan?"

Pei Yue remained silent.

Seeing this, Shen Danmo sighed and said: "Some people are really snobbish. When they ask for help from me, Miss Shen is older than Miss Shen, and they just ignore it when they see that it is no longer needed. I am not as grand as Gu Zhen, next time you You can’t do anything to me anymore.”

Pei Yue coughed twice and said: "There are two types of secret agents. One is a spy like Miss Nanqin who hides very deeply and it is difficult to find out the problem with his life experience. The other is between light and dark, collecting information The news circulating in the market, for example, was that Qibao Pavilion had this kind of responsibility. They would send caravans to Southern Zhou and Xiwu every year to inquire about the customs and customs of other countries."

He raised his eyes and looked at Shen Danmo, and said calmly: "Although the latter can hardly detect confidential information, from a certain perspective, it is also an indispensable supplement. Only by fully mastering this information can we have a more complete understanding. A country. Even in some cases, the latter’s intelligence is more important, and this is the principle of knowing the subtleties.”

Shen Danmo was stunned, and after a moment he said helplessly: "Sir, I understood these principles ten years ago."

Pei Yue shook his head and said: "I'm not showing off in front of you, but I want to say that Nan Zhou obviously intends to use those people on the surface to exchange Gu Fan's life this time."

Shen Danmo said slowly: "My father said this is not worth the gain."

Pei Yue smiled and said: "Because the other party doesn't think they have lost many men. At most, they are the unlucky ones who were sent south to die when they escaped."

Shen Danmo stared thoughtfully and thought: "So you ask the fake spy to tell the other party not to think about escaping from the south."

Pei Yue nodded and said: "Whether they can kill Gu Fan or not, these people must have thought about a way out. If they want to return to Southern Zhou, they have only two options."

Shen Danmo understood clearly, and immediately said in confusion: "But if you transfer all your manpower to Yuejiang Tower at this time, Gu Fan's safety will be guaranteed, and the unique terrain there is enough to trap the enemy."

Pei Yue smiled and said nothing.

Shen Danmo looked at him quietly, her eyes getting brighter and brighter, and the idea in her mind gradually became clearer. She said in surprise: "You plan to use this opportunity to catch all of Nanzhou in one fell swoop? What a big appetite!"
