Chapter 323 The whereabouts of the Falcon

There is a house covering an area of ​​three acres in Changmingfang in the south of Chang'an County. This is the house of Xu Anyou, a foreign minister of the Ministry of Rites. Xu Anyou is a descendant of the prime minister Xu Jingzong. He was born as a Jinshi in the third year of Tianbao and married Wu Xin's daughter.

Naturally, he had the opportunity to climb up the ladder. In just five years, he was promoted to the rank of Yuanwailang of the Ministry of Rites. He is only twenty-eight years old this year and has a bright future.

But unfortunately, not long ago, something happened to his father-in-law's Wu family. The Wu family was suspected of assassinating the Yang family and was dismissed from office and questioned. His brother-in-law Wu Gui was beheaded. His father-in-law Wu Xin and brother-in-law Wu Ying were sentenced to exile in Lingnan.

This struck Xu Anyou like a thunderbolt. During that time, he was in constant panic. However, except for the Wu family and his son, no other female family members of the Wu family were implicated. Wu Xin's wife was not punished except for her dismissal, and her three daughters were all safe.

Nothing happened, I wasn't taken into the classroom.

Naturally, Xu Anyou was not implicated and continued to serve as a member of the Ministry of Rites. Just when he relaxed a little, he received another news that Wu Xin died of a sudden illness in Tongguan Post House.

Everyone in the official circles knew what it meant to die of a sudden illness. This news made Xu Youan's heart become more anxious again. This was obviously the Yang family taking revenge on the Wu family. So would the Yang family kill his wife and children?

At night, Xu Anyou was sitting in his study in a daze. There was a knock on the door. A moment later, he heard his wife nervously asking in the yard: "Who are you? What do you want to do?"

Xu Anyou was shocked and hurriedly walked out to the front yard. He saw more than a dozen men in black standing in the front yard. They were all tall and strong, carrying long knives at their waists, and they were very fierce.

Xu Anyou was so frightened that his legs trembled and he almost sat on the ground.

At this time, a man in black came out and said coldly: "Don't ask or care about who we are. If you ask too many questions, you will lose your life!"

He led his men directly into the living room. Xu Anyou was carried into the lobby by two big men in black and sat softly on a chair. At this time, his wife Wu and a pair of children were also brought in.

The leader of the men in black said coldly: "Let me tell you the truth! We were ordered to track down Wu Ying's whereabouts. He did not die in Tongguan, but escaped. We also went to Wu Mansion. Wu Ying's mother has repeatedly promised that there is no Wu Ying."

The news about Ying is now with you, Commander Xu, it's best to tell me where he is? Don't force us to do anything to the child."

When Xu Anyou heard that he was just tracing the whereabouts of Wu Ying, he immediately turned back and glared at his wife: "Tell them!"

His wife Wu lowered her head and said, "How do I know his whereabouts?"

Xu Anyou jumped up and shouted loudly: "Tell them quickly, otherwise my son's life will be at risk!"

Wu had no choice but to whisper: "He came here yesterday morning. I gave him fifty taels of silver, and he took the silver and left in a hurry."

"Where did he go?" the leading man in black asked.

Wu quickly shook his head, "I don't know, and he wouldn't tell me, so I shouldn't mind my own business!"

"Is it true?" The person who asked the question this time was Xu Youan. He was really a little annoyed. He didn't know that his wife gave Wu Ying fifty taels of silver.

Mrs. Wu was also dissatisfied and said: "Why did I lie to you? Don't I want the lives of my children anymore?"

The leading man in black asked again: "Where will he go? Madam should know!"

Wu shook his head, "I told you, I don't know!"

"Madam, you just said he didn't tell you, you didn't say you didn't know."

Mrs. Wu lowered her head and said nothing. At this time, Xu Anyou said, "Let me have a few words with my wife!"

The leading man in black waved his hand, and everyone went out. For a moment, a fierce quarrel between the couple came from the lobby, and finally Xu Anyou's vicious voice was heard, "Since you want to kill me, then I will divorce you!"

The lobby fell silent for a moment, and after a while, Mrs. Wu started crying.

Xu Anyou soon came out triumphantly and said to the leader in black: "The Wu family has a manor in Fuping County. Most people don't know about it. Wu Ying often went there when he was a child. He is probably hiding there!"

"What's the name of the manor?"

"The manor is called Black Deer Manor, but the locals call it Three Trees Manor."

The man in black waved his hand and left quickly with his men.

Wu came out and cried: "My father is dead, my younger brother is also dead, and your only eldest brother is also going to be killed by you?"

Xu Anyou pointed at his nose and shouted: "I am going to be killed by your Wu family. Why are you so jealous of the Yang family? Is the Yang family easy to mess with? You Wu family will bring trouble to yourself, and you will also hurt others!"

Mrs. Wu sobbed and squatted on the ground and cried. The two children quickly came to persuade their mother. For the sake of the children, Xu Anyou's expression softened again.

"Okay! Okay! You don't know who your brother is. If he is smarter, he will run away for his life and save some fireworks for your Wu family. If he hides in Fuping County, he will definitely seek revenge and assassination.

, if Yang Xiangguo’s son is killed again, we will be guilty of covering up. The whole family will have to die with him, and the two children will not survive. He is obviously a harmful person. If you protect him, you will only get killed.

My own relatives."

Wu choked up and said, "I know, so I didn't hide it."

At this moment, the door was knocked open with a bang, and dozens of warriors in green clothes rushed in. They drew their swords and surrounded Xu Anyou's family. Xu Anyou collapsed on the ground in fear. Why did another group of people come?

The leading warrior roared angrily: "Where is Wu Ying hiding? Hurry up and tell me, and I will spare your life!"

At dawn the next day, Zhang Ping found Li Ye and said, "We already have an idea. It's at Heilu Manor in Fuping County. The locals call it Three Trees Manor. It's a relatively secret manor of the Wu family and is not listed in the official register."

.”

"Are you sure it's there?" Li Ye asked.

Zhang Ping shook his head, "I can only say that it may be there. His sister gave him fifty taels of silver the day before yesterday, but he refused to say where he was going. If he is still in Guanzhong, then there is a high probability that he is at Black Deer Manor.

He used to go there a lot when he was a kid."

"Without further ado, I'll leave right away!"

"I'll take a few warriors to accompany you! You may not be familiar with that place, and it will be easier to monitor if there are more people."

Li Ye didn't want to drag Zhang Ping into this matter, but Zhang Ping was right. He was not familiar with Fuping County and might be run away by Wu Ying.

"Okay! I'll come to Zhenwei Martial Arts Hall to find you in half an hour. You tell the head of the family that I have something to do today and my father will visit him tomorrow."

Zhang Ping nodded and left.

Li Ye immediately packed his luggage, took his weapons, and walked to the yard, where he happened to meet his father Li Dai.

"Where are you going?" Li Dai asked in surprise.

"I'm going to help Zhang Ping practice bowing. I'm going to practice outside the city."

Li Dai suddenly became anxious, "Didn't you agree to visit brother Wang Yuanbao today?"

"Let's change tomorrow! I really don't have time today."

Li Dai glanced at his son doubtfully, "You didn't tell me the truth!"

Li Ye quickly glanced at his mother's room, turned his back and whispered to his father: "Wu Xin was killed, and his son Wu Ying escaped. He may come to assassinate his father or grandfather. I want to find him first."

Li Dai was shocked, "Why did he want to assassinate me?"

"Because he wanted to kill me, but he couldn't, so he had to do the next best thing!"

Li Dai was speechless. Being a Jingzhao Shaoyin was so risky.

Li Ye understood what his father was thinking, shook his head and said: "It has nothing to do with being Jingzhao Shaoyin. Even if my father resigns and sits at home, he will do everything possible to do something. He just hates me."

"Officer, why don't you leave? You're going to be late." Pei Sanniang urged at the window.

"I'm leaving now!" Li Dai hurriedly went out.

"Mom, I have to leave beforehand."

After speaking, Li Ye rushed out. Pei Sanniang wanted to talk to her son about Suzaku, but he ran faster than a rabbit.

"This child is busier than his father." Pei Sanniang sighed helplessly.
