Why did Qiao Zhenyue suddenly rush to Northern Qi?
Could it be that he, Yan Zhuo, and Mu Yunfeng also sensed that they were in danger and came here specially?
Of course not. How could a thick man like Qiao Zhenyue have telepathy? And even if he had it, his telepathy would not be that of Yan Zhuo and Mu Yunfeng.
Then why did Qiao Zhenyue come to Northern Qi to find Yan Zhuo and Mu Yunfeng?
Because of the news, because of the news that the Yan family was destroyed.
Qiao Zhenyue did not come alone this time. He also brought Li Gang, a brother he met in Shaolin Temple. He originally wanted to wait for Yan Zhuo to come back from the Golden Summit Palace before arranging for him to meet Li Gang, but
He always had a vague feeling in his heart that the destruction of the Yan family might have something to do with matters in the world.
He was really a man who couldn't hide his worries. After leaving Shaolin and tossing and turning all night, he rushed towards Beiqi without stopping.
Never would I have thought that my non-stop work just saved the lives of Yan Zhuo and Mu Yunfeng.
By the time Yan Zhuo and Mu Yunfeng woke up, it was already the evening of the next day.
Qiao Zhenyue stood beside the two of them, his face full of fatigue, and even the flamboyant beard in the past was drooping and hanging listlessly on his cheeks.
"Brother Yan, you are finally awake!" Qiao Zhenyue watched Yan Zhuo get up, his eyes couldn't help but light up.
"I miss Brother Qiao." Yan Zhuo stood up and sat up.
"Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry to sit down." Qiao Zhenyue stood up and helped Yanzhuo, "I have something important to tell you this time."
Yan Zhuo was stunned and said: "What's the big deal?"
Qiao Zhenyue lowered his voice and whispered in Yan Zhuo's ear: "What happened in Jingkou back then."
Yan Zhuo turned his head sideways, his eyes filled with a mixture of surprise, sadness, and coldness, and said, "Brother Qiao, what do you know?"
"It's not that I know anything. Didn't I go to the Shaolin Temple a few days ago? I met a lay monk in the Shaolin Temple. He used to be a lieutenant in Weili, Jingkou Beifu. He knew some things about those years, so he came to see you.
Here we are. In addition, I also feel that the matter in Jingkou may also be related to the matter in Jianghu. Brother Yan, you have a smart mind, and I will rely on you to analyze it later."
When Yan Zhuo heard what Qiao Zhenyue said, he felt anxious and panicked, and asked hurriedly: "Where is that brother now?"
"It's in the next room. I'll call him right away. You sit here." After saying that, Qiao Zhenyue stood up and left in a stride, walked to the next door and invited Li Gang over.
This Li Gang came out of Shaolin not long ago. Some hard stubbles had just grown on his scalp, which were both green and black. He looked a little weird, but he had broad shoulders and a broad body. He had a resolute and courageous gait. Under a pair of thick eyebrows, his eyes were as bright as lightning.
There is some spirit of marching.
"Brother Li Gang, this is Brother Yan I told you about."
"Brother Yan, this is the Li Gang brother I just told you about."
Qiao Zhenyue introduced the two of them, then said, "You guys talk first, I'll go see Brother Mu", then turned and left, leaving only Li Gang and Yan Zhuo in the room.
Yan Zhuo knew that his eldest brother was an upright man and did not want to hear some of their past events, so he left first and was not polite. He only waited to finish chatting with Li Gang before discussing with Qiao Zhenyue.
"Brother Li Gang." Yan Zhuo cupped his hands towards Li Gang, "My dear, Yan Zhuo, I believe that Brother Qiao has also told you that I am the son of Yan Guyuan. Back then, the entire Yan family was wiped out, and I was the only one who was lucky.
Gou Huo. Brother Li Gang, if you know something about the past, you must tell me about it. How can I not avenge this family's destruction?"
As he spoke, Yan Zhuo's eyes were bleeding, and his eyes like deep pools were also covered with a layer of mist.
Li Gang looked at Yan Zhuo, but he didn't know how to start the words. He looked at the young man in front of him, with a hint of sadness in his sharp eyes, and said: "Young General... Young Master Yan, I don't know.
What do you want to know? I will tell you everything I know, but when the Yan family was destroyed, I was just a gatekeeper and I didn’t know much about some things."
Yan Zhuo nodded and said, "Brother Li, when the Yan family was destroyed, were you also guarding the city gate?"
"Yes, I was the guard at the east gate at that time. To be honest, your first birthday was a big event in Jingkou back then. The wedding banquet was probably over a thousand tables, and it was arranged from the east gate to the west gate. It was really a grand scene."
Yan Zhuo nodded and asked, "Then, was there any suspicious person passing by the east gate that day?"
When Li Gang heard Yan Zhuo's question, he couldn't help scratching his head and said: "This is indeed a question for me. General Yan held a banquet. After hearing the news, there were countless knights and strangers from all over the world. They actually asked me to tell them everything.
Quite suspicious."
Hearing what Li Gang said, Yan Zhuo couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. Indeed, his question was a bit redundant. Senior Zhou also said that the Seven Saints of the Western Regions used poison and together with Xu Baxian destroyed the Yan family.
The whole house is full, so where will Xu Ba come first?
"Brother Li, I wonder if you have ever heard of a person like Xu Baxian?"
Li Gang nodded when he heard this: "I have heard that after the death of General Yan Guyuan, Xu Baxian succeeded the Beifu Wei Zhonglang General. However, he did not stay in Jingkou for long. A few years later, he was transferred to the capital and became what he was at that time.
A general under Zhao Hanguo, the Minister of Civil Affairs."
"Then who will be the generals of the Beifu Guards in the future?"
When Yan Zhuo asked this, Li Gang immediately showed an indignant look on his face: "Hey, whoever they are, they are all from Zhao Hanguo. I killed someone at that time and fled to the Shaolin Temple.
"
Zhao Hanguo, this is the second time Yan Zhuo has heard Zhao Hanguo's name.
He thought of Yan Xiaoyu's gnashing of teeth when he mentioned the three words "Zhao Hanguo", with a look of hatred and fear, which gave him his first comprehensive understanding of Zhao Hanguo.
"Brother Li, you said that Zhao Hanguo was still the Minister of Civil Affairs at that time. Then when did he become the prime minister?"
"It must have been the year when Xu Baxian came to the capital. I heard that Xu Baxian did a lot for him. The notorious Sansi in Jiangzuo was said to be founded by Xu Baxian."
