Bringing the Sword into the Rivers and Lakes Chapter 99 - Intrigue
The cavalry team was driving through the night. Although it was late at night and the cold wind was biting, the team was not hindered by the cold wind at all and continued to move forward.
These people are all dressed in ordinary people's clothes, but if you look closely, the knights on the horses have their eyes fixed and their expressions are stern. They are not ordinary people at first glance, and the single swords hanging on their waists indicate that they are guarding the cavalry behind them.
The purpose of the man in the carriage.
This cavalry team of about ten people rode forward in the biting winter wind. After walking for about half an hour, they sat down and the horses were exhausted after days of running around. They were breathing heavily through their noses.
However, this group of people showed no signs of fatigue. At first glance, they looked like marchers who had been living on horseback all year round.
The young man walking at the front of the team had alert eyes. His civilian clothes could not hide his intimidating aura. He looked back and saw that the horses sitting on the team were all tired. He then raised his hand to signal the people behind him to slow down and be alert.
After taking a careful look around the surrounding environment, he immediately turned around and headed towards the carriage.
"General Wan, we are almost at the border of Lingzhou. We have been running for days and the horses are a little tired. Can you take a rest before setting off?"
The leading young man did not speak to the carriage, but turned his head to report to the rider beside the carriage.
"Thank you for your hard work, Commander Yan. We have been traveling for days to protect Wan and are indeed exhausted. Today we will find a place to rest and recuperate before entering Lingzhou tomorrow."
The man on horseback next to the carriage said, this man has tiger-like eyebrows and leopard-like eyes, and a long beard reaching down to his belly. Although he is wearing ordinary people's clothes, neither his riding posture nor his unusual appearance can be concealed by ordinary people's clothes.
.
This group of people was none other than Wan Jun, the commander-in-chief of the Qiyun North Territory, who had left Yanbei City and returned to Liangzhou incognito.
Wan Jun loved the people and did not want to mobilize troops, nor did he want to be guarded by sergeants and soldiers, acting like a general in the north, so he chose the simplest way to return home.
The ones guarding him were the Yunyingsi guards sent by the emperor himself. In the eyes of all officials, the Yan family's children in the Yunyingsi were the elite of the elite, and they usually only protected the emperor's relatives.
In order to protect Wan Jun, the Holy Sect consists of ten people, each of whom is the best among Yan Ruohai's disciples, and the leader of this group of guards, Yan Bin, is the most outstanding person among Yan Ruohai's disciples.
Yan Bin has already stepped into the realm of first sight at a young age, and his skill with Dragon Palm has already vaguely resembled that of Yan Ruohai, and Yan Ruohai values him greatly. He once said that this son and his son Yan Qingchuan can be the masters of Dragon Yuan Scale Palm.
Best heir.
The Yan family is one of the most favored and relied-upon members of the emperor. His Majesty sent ten members of the Yan family to protect Wan Jun. It can be said that the emperor's favor cannot be increased.
Upon hearing Wan Jun's order, Yan Bin fisted his chest and performed a military salute. Then he pulled the reins in his hands and went to instruct everyone to find shelter from the wind and set up camp on the spot.
Wan Jun looked at the departing young man and felt a little emotional. Everyone in the court only said it was the emperor's kindness, but only Wan Jun himself knew the pain.
When he heard that Yan Bin had sent out an investigative bodyguard to report that an abandoned house was found not far away, where he could shelter from the wind and spend the night, Wan Jun retracted his thoughts, smiled bitterly, and immediately ordered to spend the night in that abandoned house.
Yan Bin was indeed as attentive as silk. By the time Wan Jun arrived at the abandoned house, Yan Bin had already explored the surrounding area. Not only did he ask his guards to clean the abandoned house, he also arranged manpower in the front and rear yards.
Guards are at hand.
"General Wan, the house is deserted and shabby. Please stay here for one night. It will be better when we enter the Lingzhou border tomorrow." Yan Bin looked at the man in front of him who had the safety of Qiyun's northern border on his shoulders.
Since King Qi Yun and the eldest son were killed in the capital of Zhao, the emperor has now destroyed Zhao Zili. Although the Jin State publicly declared a cessation of war, secretly it always used troops to test the border, and often used small groups of rovers to cross the border to harass the people.
Wan Jun has been in Yanbei for many years and guarded the border with determination. Over the years, whether he faced the Jin army's temptations or the raids by guerrillas, he commanded properly and firmly guarded the Qiyun border behind him.
In Yan Bin's heart, Wanjun's weight is already equal to that of the war god Wang Tian and the old national scholar Xiao Xiang who are stationed at Shanhaiguan all year round, and are known as the pillars of the country.
He was such a general who cared about the people. Yan Bin really couldn't figure out why before he and others set out to Yanbei City, General Yan Ruohai, the leader, told him those four words, "Watch Wanjun."
Yan Bin was originally an orphan, but luckily Yan Ruohai took him under the Dragon Gate and taught him his skills. On Yan Ruohai's recommendation, he was promoted to the head of the Yunying Division.
With a grateful heart, Yan Bin regarded Yan Ruohai and his son as his father and brother. Since it was Yan Ruohai's order, although Yan Bin did not understand why he treated Wan Jun like this, he still followed Yan Ruohai's order and treated Wan Jun's every move.
Report every move to Yan Ruohai truthfully.
"Commander Yan doesn't need to be like this. Wan has been in the army for many years, and this kind of hardship is nothing. Commander Yan, on the other hand, has won the trust of the Holy One at a young age. He is also the person who can help Master Yan, and his future is limitless."
Wan Jun seemed to talk more than when he was in Yanbei City, so he interrupted Yan Bin's thinking.
"The lower officials are frightened. General Wan has been guarding Yanbei for many years, and his merits are in Sheji..." Yan Bin hurriedly replied with military salute.
Wan Jun raised his hand to stop Yan Bin from continuing to speak, then he laughed at himself and said lightly with dignity: "It's cold outside, there is no danger here, let everyone come in and rest, go, this is a military order."
Although Yan Bin had been in Yanbei for a short time, he also knew that Wan Jun's orders must be carried out, so he immediately shut up, said no more, left the deserted house, and went to deliver the orders.
Wan Jun looked at Yan Bin's back, stroking his long beard, narrowing his leopard eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
——
Xiaoloufeng, Yulingzhai, the meeting hall is brightly lit.
Chi Tianya and Chi Qianren were accidentally hit by Hu Bao and temporarily stopped fighting. Hu Bao led the two sides to Xiaoloufeng Yuling Village.
Although the two sides stopped fighting, a tense atmosphere permeated the meeting hall. Hu Bao carefully accompanied him in the meeting hall. He already regretted infinitely that he had to come forward. Now he was involved in right and wrong, and he was in a dilemma.
.
Seeing both parties sitting down, Hu Bao rolled his eyes and thought of a way to escape. He quickly said to Chi Qianren with a smile on his face: "Brother Chi, I'm going to prepare some drinks for everyone. You are in the same sect, so you must have a lot to talk about.
."
After saying this, Hu Bao saluted everyone in the hall, and without waiting for anyone to react, he ran away and escaped from the meeting hall to get some wine.
Suddenly, he heard someone calling in a low voice. He turned around and saw Zhang Da'er from his Hutou Village hiding in the dark to greet him.
"Zhao Zhu, Zhao Zhu." Zhang Da'er lowered his voice and called with a wave of his hands.
"Damn it, I'll chop you up alive." Seeing Zhang Da'er and others abandoning him and running away, Hu Bao was so angry that he immediately stepped forward and was about to have a fit.
Seeing this, Zhang Da'er, Wu Laoqi and others quickly begged for mercy and said, "Master of the village, don't be angry. I was waiting to move reinforcements into the village, but when I went to rescue you, I saw you leading those two groups.
We came to Yuling Village, so I followed them all the way, but now the brothers are all in ambush outside the village."
Hu Bao saw Zhang Da'er and Wu Laoqi's sincere expressions, and caught a glimpse of people hurriedly outside the village. He softened his expression and said, "I believe you will come back. Go and find some people to carry the wine for me. Also,
The rest of the people should disperse. I, the leader of your village, have made the masters of the two sides stop fighting with my skills. If I can persuade them to make peace, our Hutou Village will not only dominate Lingzhou Green Forest."
Hu Bao left and there was no one else in the meeting hall. Chi Qianren seemed to have nothing happened at the Lingzhou boundary monument. He put on a smiling face and said to Chi Tianya: "Tianya, since you and I are reunited, why don't we all stay calm?
How about reminiscing about old times."
"I came here this time in accordance with the rules of the Mo sect. I didn't come here to chat with you. Now I have received the order. Please come out with the order of the ink collector." Chi Tianya knew in his heart that the order of the ink collector of Chi Qianren was
Why did he summon himself and others to come, but he still pretended to be indifferent and said.
Where does Chi Qianren have the Mo Zhe Ling at this moment? He originally wanted to snatch the Mo Zhe Ling from Liu Piaopiao, but Liu Piaopiao had a master by his side, so he couldn't get the Mo Zhe Ling. Seeing Chi Tianya mentioned at this moment, Chi Qianren felt secretly in his heart.
I thought that I could only use the excuse I had thought up before to delay, and then send someone to find Liu Piaopiao and the ink leader to come.
"To be honest, I don't have the order of the Mohist."
Chi Qianren's words were beyond Chi Tianya's expectations, but he clearly saw the seal of the Mo Zhe's order in the letter, and he stood up angrily.
"What. Not in your hands?"
Chi Qianren and Chi Tianya have been in the same sect for many years, and they are well aware of Chi Tianya's temperament, so he immediately spoke to comfort him: "Tianya, be calm and don't be impatient. Although Mo Zhe Ling is not in my hand, I did see Mo Zhe Ling, and Mo Zhe Ling is here
In Lingzhou, we invited Junior Brother Tianya to come to Lingzhou."
Chi Qianren saw that Chi Tianya's face softened slightly, and continued: "I have a friend in the world. Although I don't know where he got the Mohist Order from, I did see the Mohist Order with my own eyes from him."
Chi Tianya snorted coldly, and then said: "In that case, why invite me here? Wouldn't it be more in line with your temperament for you to get the Mo Zhe Ling yourself?"
Chi Qianren saw that his junior brother had fallen into the trap, so he smiled and said: "After all, I am also a member of the Mo Sect. I also want to get back the lost leader's token of the Mo Sect and give it back to you."
He paused for a moment, seeing Chi Tianya's distrustful look, and then said: "It's just that my friend in the world needs a small favor from me before he is willing to return the Mo Zhe Ling. But for this kind of work, people like me may not be able to do it.
If we don't catch him, we have no choice but to ask Junior Brother Tianya to help."
"When you left the Momen with these traitors, you were no longer a member of our Momen. You don't have to think of yourself as a Moman." Chi Tianya showed no mercy at all.
The two exchanged words. The freckled girl behind Chi Tianya listened and quietly winked at the scarred man beside him, as if to say: "Since Brother Tianya wants to save people, why are you still talking to Chi Qianren here?"
Son, please accept it readily."
The scar-faced man understood the expression of the freckled girl, and also glanced at the Chi Qianren in the meeting hall, and raised his eyebrows towards Chi Tianya, as if replying: "You should pretend to be more realistic, if you agree so easily.
Come down here, how can you not be suspicious of a veteran like Chichiren Ren?"
The freckled girl seemed to have understood the scarred man's eyes, and showed a look of surprise. Then she looked at the field, and heard that Chichiren was still not angry, but just smiled and said: "Even if it is for Momen, I think you will do it."
You won’t just sit back and watch.”
Seeing that the preparations were almost done, Chi Tianya was afraid that if he continued to be sarcastic, he and Chi Qianren would have to fight each other again, so he pretended to be thoughtful.
Chi Qianren saw that Chi Tianya seemed to be moved by the word "Momen" he said, and immediately sneered in his heart, knowing that his junior brother would not let go of the word "Momen".
"Tianya, no matter what grudges there are between you and me, you and I should work together to get back the Mo clan's order, how about that?"
"Okay, then let's put aside the grudges between you and me, and get back Mo Zhe's order first, and then talk about anything else." Chi Tianya said reluctantly. This chapter has been completed!
