The king will never go to court

Chapter 297 Beiyang Dynasty, Xie Clan

Beiyang Dynasty, the border of the East China Sea.

A man in Chinese clothes was lying on a spacious carriage, reeking of alcohol, his face glared by a ray of sunlight.

"Master Yan, you are awake."

A middle-aged man's worried voice came from his ear.

The young man in Huafu is Yan Shaoge, a direct descendant of the Yan clan of the four major families of the Beiyang Dynasty.

With the support of the middle-aged man, Yan Shaoge sat up with difficulty, rubbed his head that was still suffering from a splitting headache with both hands, and asked in a weak voice.

"Where is this going?"

"Reporting to young master, we can reach Taixuan City after half a day's travel."

The middle-aged man hurriedly untied the water bag around his waist, handed it to Yan Shaoge, and said with a flattering smile. "Master, drink sober tea first to relieve fatigue."

"Grumbling."

Yan Shaoge picked up the teacup and drank several sips in a row before taking a breather, and he could still smell the faint smell of alcohol clearly.

Through the messy long hair in front of his eyes, he looked at the middle-aged man beside him. He had a Chinese character face, a pair of thick eyebrows, and was wearing a black dress. There was also a black dragon pattern waist knife hanging from his waist.

"Master, are you alright?"

The middle-aged man shook his hand in front of Yan Shaoge's eyes, staring at the dull eyes of the young man in front of him, his voice suddenly trembled.

"Don't frighten the humble, I'm timid, I can't be frightened!"

"Go away!"

Yan Shaoge pushed away the middle-aged man's waving hand, and said in an irritable and angry voice.

Outside the carriage was a continuous line of thousands of people, each with their hands bound by ropes, walking slowly on the dusty mountain road.

Yan Shaoge pointed to the dilapidated carriages in the line, and said dryly. "them."

"Master, did you forget? The head of the seat personally gave the order, General Fan's relatives must not be neglected." The middle-aged man reminded in a low voice. "But in yesterday's sneak attack, Miss Fan's family almost escaped, and the lowly officials had no choice but to imprison her in a carriage."

"Don't worry, young master, the lowly officials will definitely not let you suffer. As long as you arrive in Taixuan City, those rebels will not dare to be presumptuous."

In the past few days, there were occasional sneak attacks, but they were quickly killed by the master Xuan Tiansi in the escorting team.

Yan Shaoge ordered the beheading of a few people who took the lead in making trouble, and everyone became more and more peaceful, and no one dared to make trouble again.

The setting sun was like blood, and the setting sun stretched the shadows of the team extremely long. Everyone dragged their tired bodies and struggled on the gravel road.

The team at this time is very quiet, and most people's eyes have lost color and spirit.

After getting off the carriage, Yan Shaoge came to a dilapidated carriage that had been nailed so that there were only gaps left. Looking at the dried blood on the window, he sighed with helplessness in his eyes.

"We'll be in Taixuan City soon."

In the carriage, a girl who looked only sixteen or seventeen years old was leaning against the corner of the carriage. Her moon-white dress was already stained with blood, her face was still covered with dust, and her hair was a little messy.

The girl didn't speak, but her beautiful eyes were still staring at Yan Shaoge with vigilance.

Looking at those beautiful eyes, Yan Shaoge couldn't believe how they could be filled with such hatred.

After observing all the way, Yan Shaoge finally locked his target on this carriage, Miss Fan's family.

"Miss Fan, don't worry, the water and food are fine. If you don't believe me, I'll take a bite and show you."

Yan Shaoge took a bite of the steamed bun in his hand, and took another sip of the water in the water bag.Then he put the dry food and a bag of water into the carriage along the window, with a gentle smile on his face.

He glanced at the food and water beside him, and then at Yan Shaoge outside the carriage.After hesitating for a moment, Miss Fan picked up the steamed buns and water.

"Don't worry, there is absolutely no problem. I have tried it with my own life. Miss Fan is still not at ease?"

Without further hesitation, Miss Fan opened her red lips slightly, and just as she was about to eat, she realized that there was a young man beside her.She turned sideways, and a graceful figure came into Yan Shaoge's eyes.

Seeing Miss Fan's quiet appearance, Yan Shaoge swallowed, quickly restrained himself, and cursed inwardly.

"It's not that I haven't seen a beautiful woman before. If I can't see a beautiful woman, I forget the business."

Not long after, Miss Fan's soft voice came from the carriage, "Thank you, my lord."

"No need to thank you, tell me about your Donghai."

"East China Sea?"

"Yeah." Yan Shaoge nodded slightly.

At this moment, he is just regarded by a group of subordinates as a dandy who strikes up Miss Fan's family.

Miss Fan put down the water bag in her hand, and there was a crystal mist in her eyes, as if tears welled out of her eyes.

"If Miss Fan has any embarrassment, then forget it."

Although the guards of Xuan Tiansi beside him felt that their lord was a little strange today, they had no evidence, let alone dared to speak nonsense.

"The snow in the East China Sea is beautiful, but everything there is white, and the people in the East China Sea are very miserable. My father just wanted to do something for the people in the East China Sea, but he was framed by the adults in the court."

"Framed?" Yan Shaoge frowned.

According to the news from Yang Xinghe, Yan Shaoge came to capture the servants of Fan's family under the order of the head.And that General Fan was beheaded on the spot in the border camp by the imperial court.

"My father was a military general of the East China Sea, and he had guarded the border for the Beiyang Dynasty for more than ten years. Whenever the Dongyang Dynasty invaded, my father would always lead his soldiers to defend the Juhu Pass and move the people into the city. The enemy soldiers of the Dongyang Dynasty were never innocent. Come back with success?"

"For the people in the East China Sea, my father loves the people like a son, how could he not care about their life or death, let alone surrender to the enemy!"

Yan Shaoge turned his head to the side, unwilling to meet Miss Fan's sad and indignant eyes.

When he saw the ragged servants behind the carriage, he took a deep breath of stale air in his chest.

Most of these people were Donghai citizens who besieged Xuantiansi's guards at that time, just to prevent Xuantiansi from taking away the family members of the Fan family.

"Perhaps, your father was wrong." Yan Shaoge still did not say the words "Love the people like a son" in the end.

After a while, Yan Shaoge just sighed, turned and left.

Regarding Miss Fan's fate, he already had guesses. Even if someone in the court dared to protect her, one could imagine what would happen to a woman who lost her father's protection.

Seeing that his master was a little disappointed, Yang Xinghe, who had been waiting beside the spacious carriage, stepped forward quickly, with a respectful expression on his face.

"My lord, what's the matter? Are you interested in that Miss Fan family? Do you want to bring a few people to arrest her?"

Yang Xinghe had just finished speaking halfway, when he saw Yan Shaoge's icy eyes staring at him, he swallowed the next words in a hurry, and shivered all over.

"I know I'm wrong." Yang Xinghe squeezed out a respectful smile on his rough cheeks, and he became more humble as he followed Yan Shaoge.

"My lord, then I will instruct everyone to step up and enter Taixuan City before nightfall."

Yan Shaoge glanced back, and at the moment he got into the spacious carriage, he saw those exhausted servants and innocent people of the Fan family, and shook his head helplessly.

Yang Xinghe thought that his lord was still interested in Miss Fan's family, so he turned around and ordered the guards behind him to slow down.

Returning to the carriage again, feeling the slightly shaking body, Yan Shaoge lay sprawled on the brocade couch, stretching comfortably.

The speed of the team slowed down, and when night fell, they were more than 30 miles away from Taixuan City.

The setting sun completely disappeared on the ground, and the outline of Taixuan City was not seen.The hearts of a few people in the team became active again, and tonight will be the best time for them to finally escape.

On the fields on both sides of the official road, dozens of bonfires were lit here and there.

Fortunately, Taixuan City sent a lot of wine and meat, so the mouths of many guards were blocked.

Among the singers, Yan Shao fiddled with the bonfire in front of him with a twig, sniffing the sizzling aroma of the roasted meat on the bonfire.

"My lord, you should try it first. You have been exhausted by eating and sleeping all the way." Yang Xinghe cut a piece of barbecue meat from the grill very familiarly, and respectfully placed it on the small table beside Yan Shaoge.

With a flash in Yan Shaoge's eyes, he subconsciously pulled out the inch Xu gold knife from his waist, and a cold light shot out from the scabbard.

"Xinghe, tell me how we escorted these people from the Fan Mansion to Taixuan City this time, how the Lord Master will reward everyone."

Yan Shaoge chewed on the barbecue, and said vaguely.

"Reward? Will there really be a reward?" Yang Xinghe's eyes lit up, as if he saw one golden ingot after another.

Soon, the light in his eyes disappeared completely.

Yang Xinghe held his mouth shut, and said with a trace of mourning in his voice. "My lord's going out to experience this time is specially arranged by the head of the family. They may have some rewards." His eyes fell on the guards of Xuan Tiansi who were sitting around the campfire not far away, and pointed at himself. "How could I have."

Yang Xinghe placed himself in the right position, the young master came to Xuan Tiansi to practice, and as a servant of Yan Mansion, he entered Xuan Tiansi only to protect Yan Shaoge.

"careful!"

Just as Yang Xinghe was complaining, he quickly pushed Yan Shaoge down with his left hand, turned over by himself, stood behind Yan Shaoge, and blew the siren at the same time.

A few guards of Xuan Tiansi beside the bonfire in the distance rushed towards Yan Shaoge, guarding them all around.

Yan Shaoge was about to get angry, but saw a flying arrow inserted into the place where he was sitting just now, and the arrow feathers trembled in the air.

At the same time, a transparent hemispherical mask protected Yan Shaoge and the others.

Soon, there were fierce fighting sounds all around.The lights of swords and swords not far away were intertwined, and screams could be heard from time to time in the dark night.

That was the fierce battle between Xuan Tiansi's master and the prisoner's warrior.

"Don't worry, my lord, these robbers will not have any chance."

"Miss Fan!"

"My lord, don't worry, the servants and prisoners of the Fan family will never escape. It is impossible for these robbers to snatch Fan Ni from Xuan Tiansi's master."

Yan Shaoge planned to continue asking, but the sound of fighting in the distant night had stopped.

A quarter of an hour ago, next to the carriage where Miss Fan was, several figures appeared like ghosts, and even the bonfire beside them could not illuminate their figures.

"Who are you?"

Before Miss Fan could make a sound, a strong wind hit Miss Fan with a snap of her fingers, causing her to fall asleep.

Several people took Miss Fan away, leaving one person in the carriage, the other "Miss Fan".

The eyes of Xuan Tiansi's bodyguard who was guarding beside the carriage were dull, and soon returned to normal.

However, they couldn't remember what happened before. They looked back at the carriage and found that there was nothing unusual.

Several people let out a long sigh of relief, "Fortunately, they were not robbed."

On the other side, a middle-aged man in a black robe came out of the darkness quickly, stopped ten steps away from Yan Shaoge in front of the mask, and said respectfully.

"Please rest at ease, my lord. The enemies have all been killed, and there is no one alive."

Yan Shaoge coughed dryly, "I'll leave Xinghe's matter to you."

Yang Xinghe saluted Yan Shaoge respectfully, turned around and said coldly to the visitor with icy eyes.

"How many people came from the other party?"

"110 three people."

"Not one alive?"

"We killed [-] of them, and all the other wounded committed suicide."

Yang Xinghe pondered for a moment, his voice still cold. "How about Fan Ni?"

"Fan Ni is with everyone, and no one has escaped."

"No one escaped?" Yang Xinghe frowned slightly, but he didn't say much, and he didn't signal the Dark Emperor Xuan Tiansi to retreat.

He turned to Yan Shaoge who was sitting by the campfire, and asked respectfully.

"My lord, do you have anything else to ask?"

"Since no one from Fan Ni escaped, please check carefully again, and everything else will be fine." Yan Shaoge waved his hand to disperse the bloody smell in the surrounding air, and said calmly.

"As ordered."

The master Xuan Tiansi in the dark took the order and then quickly disappeared in place.

At the same time, Yang Xinghe glanced in the direction of Miss Fan's carriage intentionally or unintentionally, the corners of his mouth slightly curved, and soon returned to normal in the dark night.

After a sleepless night, Yan Shaoge lay in the carriage, tossing and turning sleeplessly.

"Hundreds of people just to make a fuss? Didn't they go to rob the prisoners?"

In the early morning of the second day, the team continued to move in the direction of Taixuan City.Soon, they encountered city guard cavalry coming from the direction of Taixuan City.

Last night, the fierce battle on Yan Shaoge's side still caught the attention of Taixuan City, and the city lord sent cavalry to investigate early in the morning.

After half an hour, the team finally reached the outskirts of Taixuan City, and the outline of the huge city was clearly visible.

The hundred-foot-high city wall almost blocked the morning sun, and the more than ten-foot-high city gate exuded golden rune imprints, "screening" every pedestrian who entered Taixuan City.

There were only a dozen city guards at the city gate, and they stood upright under the city gate.It's more like a guard of honor at the moment.

Taixuan City is a city on the east coast of the Beiyang Dynasty. Hundreds of miles to the east are barren seas and ice seas, and there are less than one million people living in Taixuan.

To the north of Taixuan Prefecture are Qingshan Prefecture and Luyang Prefecture, and further north is Dixuan City, the capital of the Beiyang Dynasty.

The team of Yan Shaoge and others arrived at the foot of Taixuan City, and Wang Wenshan, the chief clerk of the City Lord's Mansion, came to welcome them.

The person who came was a more than 40-year-old middle-aged scholar, dressed in a Confucian robe, with three strands of green beard under his chin, and a ruddy complexion, unlike an old scholar who was good at writing.

Wang Wenshan represented Taixuan City City Lord's Mansion, and Yan Shaoge couldn't shirk at this time, so he could only get out of the carriage and exchange greetings.

"I've seen Wang Changshi, and I'm next to Xuantian to be Yan Shaoge."

Until now, Yan Shaoge hadn't figured out his official position in Xuan Tiansi, so far he only knew that he was the adult of this group of people.

"I've met Yan Shaofu. I'm the official Taixuan City Chief Shi Wang Wensheng. It's our Taixuan City's fault that Yan Shaofu was attacked outside Taixuan City. I still look at Yan Shaofu."

Wang Wenshan, who was dressed in a Confucian robe, bowed slightly and saluted again.

Yan Shaoge stepped forward quickly, supported Wang Wenshan with both hands, and smiled, "What is Wang Changshi talking about, he is just a traitor in the East China Sea, how can he bother the Lord City Lord. It is hard for the City Lord to guard Taixuan Prefecture. How dare Shaoge, a junior, dare not."

"Wenshan is not talented, so he held a reception banquet in the Jiuhua Pavilion in the city, and invited Shaofu Yan to show his face."

With that said, Wang Wenshan was about to take Yan Shaoge's arm to his carriage.

"Wang Changshi, let's forget about the banquet. Shaoge still has the emperor's life." Yan Shaoge hurriedly evaded, pointing with his left hand to Fan Ni's team that was passing through the city gate.

"Don't worry, Shaofu Yan, Fan Ni entered Taixuan City, no one can rob him."

On the way here, Wang Wenshan had already understood what Yan Shaoge and his party were robbed and killed outside the city.

Fan Ni and his group were not robbed, and Yan Shaoge was also unharmed.

Before Wang Wenshan came here, he was still curious with several senior officials, whether the robbery this time was aimed at Qi Lin'er of the Yan family, or Fan Ni.

Just as the two were exchanging greetings, a beam of rune light trembled. "Buzz~"

"How is this going?!"

"What happened?"

"Carriage, Fan Ni's carriage!"

Two figures appeared in front of Miss Fan's carriage in an instant, the carriage was scattered by two gusts of wind, and a white shadow appeared in front of the two masters of Xuan Tiansi.

"Miss Fan" raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a strange smile.

Yan Shaoge looked at Wang Wenshan in confusion, and asked in surprise. "Wang Changshi, what's going on?!"

"Yan Shaofu, the city gate array is used to identify everyone's identity, there can be no mistake. Unless...unless"

Before Wang Wenshan could continue, Yan Shaoge and Yang Xinghe appeared in front of the golden aura of the formation runes in an instant.

Yan Shaoge didn't even realize that he could reach a hundred steps in an instant.

"what happened?"

Yan Shaoge stared at the woman in white in the golden talisman light with a gloomy face. At this moment, he also understood what Wang Wenshan meant by unless.

The woman in white in front of him was not Miss Fan, he recognized her immediately in her eyes.

"It's all the fault of the lowly officials that Fan Ni escaped."

Yang Xinghe was the first to bow his hand to plead guilty, and all the guards of Xuan Tiansi behind him bowed down to plead guilty, and even the several masters of Xuan Tiansi beside him lowered their proud heads.

They didn't know when exactly something went wrong that allowed Fan Ni to escape.

This is simply a great shame for Xuan Tiansi.

"It must have been last night!" Yan Shaoge's voice was cold.

On the side, Wang Wenshan also quickly followed, speaking to comfort him. "Young Master Yan, don't worry, I'll ask Taixuan cavalry to investigate immediately."

Yan Shaoge took a deep breath, turned around with a forced smile, and said gratefully. "Then thank you Wang Changshi."

"Can these people be put in the prison of Taixuan City first?"

"No problem, this is of course possible. Our Taixuan City will definitely cooperate with Xuan Tiansi to handle the case." Wang Wenshan couldn't continue to invite Yan Shaoge to the banquet.

"Wang Changshi, Shaoge won't bother you for now. We Xuantiansi need to rest too."

"Come here, take Yan Shaofu to the posthouse." Wang Wenshan ordered to the people behind him.

"My lord, please come down with your subordinates." A warrior behind Wang Wenshan walked out of the queue, bowed and saluted, and led the way.

"Thank you Wang Changshi." Yan Shaoge cupped his fists in gratitude.

Led by the attendants of Taixuan City, after turning two streets, Xuan Tiansi and his group came to a huge courtyard.

Outside the courtyard are two lifelike alien beasts with two feet and scales.Yan Shaoge was stunned for a moment when he saw the gatekeeper stone beast, but he couldn't find any similar beast in his memory.

Passing through the triple courtyard, Xuan Tiansi's group entered the deepest part of the post house.

"Fan Ni escaped, I have my own concerns. Everyone go to rest first," Yan Shaoge comforted the guards behind him as he walked.

"As ordered!"

When everyone came to the courtyard in front of the backyard, they were led by the postmen to their respective guest rooms.

After stepping into the main hall, Yan Shaoge picked up the hot tea from an attendant and took a sip.

Condensed and refreshed, I feel very good breath.Take another sip.

Without thinking too much, Yang Xinghe took the tray from the attendant, put the tea and pastries on the table next to Yan Shaoge's seat, and asked anxiously.

"Master, what should we do next? Fan Ni has escaped. This responsibility is not light."

Seeing that Yang Xinghe's anxious expression for him did not seem to be fake, Yan Shaoge also had a look of worry on his face, and asked in a cold voice.

"You said this, what will the family do?"

Seeing the probing look in his young master's burning eyes, Yang Xinghe sighed heavily after pondering for a moment.

"Young master, it's better to rush back to Emperorxuan City. This matter can only be made by the Patriarch. We can't bear it, and the head of Xuantian Division can't protect us either."

"Fan Ni's escape can be big or small. Only the head of the family can control the matter between big and small."

"Can it be big or small?" Yan Shaoge's eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a hint of coldness.

Yang Xinghe trembled from the icy stare, knelt down on the bluestone floor with a "bang", summoned up his courage and said.

"Being able to rob Fan Ni from the masters of Xuan Tiansi is very suspicious."

Yan Shaoge's body moved forward, his eyes narrowed slightly, his eyes looked up and down at Yang Xinghe, and asked. "suspicious?"

"Humble job is suspicion. Last night's night attack must have been secretly done."

Yang Xinghe didn't dare to say it clearly, but Yan Shaoge could already hear the meaning behind his words.

"I won't go back to Emperorxuan City yet. Fan Ni was lost in my hands, and I will definitely get it back. Wouldn't it be ridiculed for returning empty-handed?"

Yan Shaoge directly vetoed Yang Xinghe's suggestion that he return to Yanfu quickly.

Before Yang Xinghe continued to persuade him, Yan Shaoge said decisively. "You send a letter to my family and Xuan Tiansi, I want all the information about Fan Ni and Donghai. I will inform Taixuan City again. If they have this information, please also send it to the post."

"Young master, you really don't intend to go back to Emperor Xuan City?" Yang Xinghe looked astonished, he had never seen his young master so serious.

Yan Shaoge's eyes turned cold, and he shouted. "Not yet!"

Just as Yan Shaoge was fascinated by the handkerchief in his hand, there was a "boom" sound in his ears, and when he looked up, a beam of light shot up into the sky from the left front of the post house.

"Young master, according to your instructions, I have ordered people to send back to Emperor Xuan City through the teleportation formation." Yang Xinghe hurried back from the outside, and replied respectfully.

"How long will it take to arrive?"

"Master, it will take about half a day for the Fuzhong and Xuantiansi to collect the information, and it will be sent to Taixuan City tonight at the latest. As for the City Lord's Mansion, I have already sent someone to hold Xuantiansi's invitation. It can be delivered in the afternoon."

Yang Xinghe replied unhurriedly. Although there was puzzlement in his eyes, he concealed it very well, and he was also secretly curious.

"My young master usually hates this kind of copywriting, why is he interested in it today? Could it be because of Fan Ni's matter."

Yang Xinghe looked up again, noticing that Yan Shaoge's face was a bit worried, and said with concern. "Master, do you want to rest first, and wait for the jade slips from the City Lord's Mansion to arrive, and I will personally send them to the room."

Yan Shaoge glanced at Yang Xinghe's concerned gaze, but nodded slightly, pretending to be tired.

"Alright, after driving all the way, I'm a little tired."

"Okay, I'll let the maid at the inn prepare a bath for you." Yang Xinghe smiled and turned to leave.

There is a secluded small building in the backyard, surrounded by spongy forests, with gurgling streams and occasional white cranes walking along the secluded path.

This is the quietest courtyard of the post house, and only the distinguished guests from Emperor Xuan City will be specially arranged here by the City Lord's Mansion.

The mist curled up in the bath, and Yan Shaoge lay by the warm mountain spring in embarrassment.Behind the embroidered screen stood two young and beautiful people, waiting for Yan Shaoge's orders at any time.

After taking a bath, Yan Shaoge changed into a loose brocade robe and came to the small building.

At the gate of the courtyard of the small building, Yang Xinghe had already stood in front of him, holding a scroll of jade slips in both hands.

"Master, this is the jade slip sent by the City Lord's Mansion, which records some information about the East China Sea."

"Xinghe, just read it to me. I'm a little tired, so I won't read it."

"Of order." Yang Xinghe bowed slightly, then dragged a few steps outside, turned around and led the way on the left front.

After entering the small building, Yan Shaoge found a comfortable soft couch to lie down on, raised his hand, and pointed to a wooden chair next to the soft couch, signaling Yang Xinghe to move closer to him.

Yang Xinghe bowed and walked quickly to Yan Shaoge, "Thank you, young master."

Then he sat upright, facing Yan Shaoge's direction, and lightly tapped a pocket on the jade slip with his right hand.

Yang Xinghe began to read according to the words on the jade slips.

"Yan Shaofu, this jade slip is specially prepared for you by Taixuan City. Please destroy it in time after reading it."

"The three passes of Daxuan East Sea form terraces from north to south and from west to east. The three passes are Juhu Pass, Beiyang Pass, Zhengyang Pass, Beiyang Dynasty, and Dongyang. The three passes are the East China Sea barrier of Beiyang."

Yan Shaoge was thoughtful. "Why was Fan Ni killed so easily? Could it be that he was unpopular in the army? This is wrong. If he was unpopular, how could anyone come to rob prisoners?"

Recalling all the messy information about Donghai in his mind, Yan Shaoge gently scratched the bridge of his nose with his right hand.

"Will there be no cronies for defecting to the enemy? Was it so easy to be beheaded in Juhu City by the eunuch who was ordered to do so? This is too simple."

The jade slips contain a lot of content, and Yan Shaoge obtained the basic information of the Beiyang Dynasty in the East China Sea.To his surprise, there are also portraits of the main generals and relatives of the three passes in the East China Sea in the materials.

"Li Miaowan"

The daughter of Li Honghao, the deputy general of Juhu Pass, who studied under Tai Miao Zhenren.

After nightfall, Yan Shaoge rejected Wang Wenshan's invitation and only asked the maid in the post house to prepare some simple meals.

Outside the small building, Yang Xinghe stared vigilantly at everything around him, not missing anything, even the maid who wanted to wait on the side was kicked out.

Inside the house, Yan Shaoge was eating a sumptuous dinner.The new jade slips were delivered half an hour ago, and the people sent by Yanfu and Xuantiansi personally escorted them through the teleportation circle.

"Shaoge, my father already knows about Fan Ni. You don't have to worry." The letter was written by Yan Kun, the current head of the Yan Mansion.

Yan Fu, Kong, Song, and Chen are known as the four major families of Emperor Xuancheng.

After reading the jade slips sent by Yan Fu and Xuan Tiansi, it was already midnight.

In the early morning of the next day, everyone in Xuantiansi in the post house waited quietly in the courtyard outside the small building, and dozens of people stood respectfully under the scorching sun.

Even the dozen or so masters of Xuan Tiansi respectfully stood at the front of the crowd.

With Yang Xinghe's notification, everyone already knew that a big shot from Xuan Tiansi came to Taixuan City last night through the ancient teleportation formation.

"Squeak" sounded.

The door of the small building opened, and two old men in brocade robes walked out of the main hall talking and laughing.

"I pay homage to Mrs. Liao's mansion!"

All the members of Xuan Tiansi in the courtyard knelt on one knee and saluted respectfully.

The old man in black brocade robe on the right had a kind smile on his face, giving everyone a feeling of spring breeze. He raised his left hand slightly to signal everyone to stand up.

"Thank you Mrs. Liao!"

Xuan Tiansi was under the command of the head, and directly reported to His Majesty Xuan Huang.Under the seat, the four great palaces are in charge of the four palaces of punishment, love, assassination and imperialism.

Under the four mansions, there are left and right mansion supervisors, left and right mansion orders, and left and right young mansions.

Yan Shaoge is Xuantiansi Yufu Zuo Shaofu, responsible for the arrest.And the old man in the black brocade robe in front of everyone at this time is Liao Wei, the Taifu of the Xuantian Division's Xingfu.

The group of them lost Fan Ni, and they never imagined that it would be the Xingfu's Taifu who came in person.

"Brother Yan, I didn't expect you to come here in person." Liao Wei's wrinkled face was full of smiles, and he couldn't tell that he was a cold-blooded killer who was in charge of Xuan Tiansi's punishment.

"Brother Liao is out. The head of the family is very concerned about Fan Ni's escape this time. After all, this is Shaoge's first time to go out for training. I never thought about it."

The mouth corners of the well-dressed old man next to Liao Wei twitched slightly. He came to Taixuan City in person at the Patriarch's order last night. He wanted to see the young Patriarch overnight.

In the end, Yang Xinghe blocked him from the door.At that time, Yang Xinghe was also sweating coldly. For some reason, the young master asked him to block the clan elders.

Liao Wei didn't see Yan Shaoge last night, and wanted to get angry early in the morning, but as soon as he entered the main hall of the small building, he met Yan Zizhen, the second elder of the Yan Mansion.

"Fan Ni's escape can't be completely blamed on Young Master Yan. After all, Young Master Yan just came to Xuan Tiansi not long ago, so it is inevitable that there are some omissions."

Although Liao Wei's voice was calm, everyone present trembled when he said those words.Yan Shaoge has the Yan Mansion as a big backer, and they are afraid that they will be punished.

The two old men were calm and peaceful here, but Yan Shaoge was pacing back and forth upstairs, not knowing how to deal with it.

One is Taifu, and the other is the second elder of Yanfu

Last night, I just thought that Yan Fu and Xuan Tiansi were ordinary people who sent the jade slips, but I didn't expect this to be the case.

He also told Yang Xinghe at the time, "I don't see anyone, don't bother me to look up Fan Ni's relevant information."

Thinking of his words at that time, cold sweat broke out on Yan Shaoge's forehead again.

At the same time, Yang Xinghe was also circling outside the door with a nervous expression on his face, wondering why the young master didn't come out to meet him when his parents came in person.

"Master, the Second Elder and Liao Taifu have been waiting downstairs for a long time. You"

"understood!"

Yan Shaoge's slightly weak voice came from inside the room.

"Master, are you sick, do you want to ask the doctor to take your pulse?" Hearing the voice from inside the room, Yang Xinghe's heart skipped a beat. If something happened to the young master, his little life would be in danger.

"I'm fine, just feeling a little dizzy."

Yang Xinghe didn't hesitate anymore, he pushed open the door abruptly, and saw Yan Shaoge lying on the bed, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, his face was also very ugly and pale.

Yan Shaoge really had no choice but to pretend to be sick.I hope the pale face and the unstoppable cold sweat can fool others.

"Sing less!"

The voices of two old men came from the attic.

Soon, Liao Wei and Yan Zizhen appeared beside the screen in the outer hall.

"What's wrong with you?"

An afterimage flashed past, Yan Zizhen's figure had already appeared in front of the bed, and Yang Xinghe had to get out of the way quickly.Said anxiously.

"Second Elder, hurry up and show the young master what's going on? It was fine last night."

Yan Zizhen grabbed Yan Shaoge's wrist, a breath gently locked the pulse on the wrist, and frowned slightly.

Entering several breaths in a row, Yan Zizhen's wrinkled forehead wrinkled even tighter, and he let out a soft sigh. "Maybe it's because you're too tired. The second grandfather told your father at the beginning that you don't want you to come to the East China Sea. He insisted on not listening. Now it's better."

Yan Zizhen's face was full of displeasure, but there was indescribable concern in his tone.

Liao Wei, who was not far behind, glanced at Yan Shaoge lying on the bed, his face was pale and sweaty, and he just shook his head slightly.

"Since Shaofu Yan is unwell, there is no need to participate in the arrest of Fan Ni."

Yan Zi on the side really wanted to agree, but Yan Shaofu on the bed refused first. "I'd better go. I'll recover after a few days of physical training. As the young master of Xuantian, how can I refuse to accept my responsibility."

"Thank you Liao Taifu for your concern, my body is just a little sick."

Yan Zizhen originally wanted to take advantage of Yan Shaoge's illness to dismiss Xuan Tiansi's job.But seeing the firm look in Yan Shaoge's eyes, he was relieved a lot.

Secretly sighed. "I say that the young master of the mansion is still responsible, and he is not as dandy as before. It seems that this time out to experience some results."

"Brother Zizhen, what do you think?" Liao Wei cast a questioning look at Yan Zizhen.

"Brother Liao, this is a matter for your Xuan Tiansi. The specific matters are still up to you to arrange."

Yan Zizhen withdrew his hand, took out a light-ink colored pill, and handed it to Yan Shaoge's mouth, with a gentle voice. "This pill can strengthen the foundation and cultivate vitality, and increase Qi and blood."

Yan Shaoge didn't hesitate, he could see the genuine love in the eyes of the Second Elder.He opened his mouth and swallowed the pill directly.

After the pill enters the abdomen, one can clearly feel a warm current flowing down the throat to the stomach and intestines, and the warm current flows along the limbs and bones to the body.

At this moment, a faint blush also appeared on Yan Shaoge's face, and the original paleness gradually receded.

"Pei Yuan Pill really deserves its reputation."

When Liao Wei saw Yan Shaoge's face turn red in an instant, he lamented the extraordinary effect of Yan Fu's elixir.

"Shaoge, you rest first. The matter of tracking down Fan Ni will be handed over to Second Grandpa and Liao Taifu first."

The loving look in Yan Zizhen's eyebrows became more and more intense, and he patted Yan Shaoge's wrist lightly.

When he turned around, his gaze turned cold, he stared at Yang Xinghe who was standing beside him, and said indifferently. "Take good care of your young master. If anything goes wrong, I will make it impossible for you to survive."

"Yes, Second Elder."

Yang Xinghe trembled all over, and hurriedly bowed to answer, with a touch of extreme fear in his voice.

"Brother Liao, let's go down first. We Yanfu will definitely cooperate with Xuan Tiansi to arrest Fan Ni this time."

Yan Zizhen cupped his hands towards Liao Wei, and the two walked out of the house.

Hearing the two people's footsteps gradually going downstairs, Yan Shaoge breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's really not easy to pretend to be sick." Yan Shaoge was secretly rejoicing that he had finally escaped a catastrophe.Yang Xinghe's slightly aggrieved voice came from his ear.

Yan Shaoge and Yang Xinghe met each other's eyes.

One is shocked and the other is wronged.

"Second Elder found out that I was faking illness?" Yan Shaoge pointed to the door and then to himself.

Yang Xinghe explained, "If you are sick, the Second Elder just needs to check his pulse. Otherwise, the Second Elder wouldn't just give you the Peiyuan Pill, and he wouldn't let me go so easily."

Now that he was seen through, Yan Shaoge couldn't continue to pretend in front of his servants, and sat up straight.After giving Yang Xinghe a wink, the latter nodded knowingly, walked quickly to the window, and looked towards the courtyard below the small building.

Everyone in Xuantiansi had already left, and the figures of Liao Taifu and the second elder of Yanfu also disappeared outside the arch.

"How is it?" Yan Shaoge urged impatiently.

"Master, you can rest assured and rest. Taifu Liao and the second elder have left." Yang Xinghe turned around dejectedly, sighing inwardly, he never thought that his young master was still the same as before.

Hearing this, Yan Shaoge showed a relieved expression, and lightly patted his heaving chest.

"Liao Taifu and the Second Elder personally took over the matter of Fan Ni's escape, so what should we do? Can we go back to Emperorxuan City?"

Yang Xinghe asked when he saw his young master let out a sigh of relief.

"Go back to Emperor Xuan City?"

Yan Shaoge's eyes widened and he waved his hands quickly.

"Do you think I pretended to be sick just to avoid it?"

Yang Xinghe had a look of doubt on his face.

"you!"

Yan Shaoge did not explain the matter of pretending to be sick, but stared at Yang Xinghe closely with clear eyes, his tone was flat, but what he said frightened Yang Xinghe a lot.

"I can't trust Xuan Tiansi's people."

"Young master, you can't talk nonsense. Xuan Tiansi is His Majesty's death guard." Yang Xinghe put his right index finger on his lips and made a silence gesture, his face showed even more surprise.

"Could it be because of Fan Ni's escape?" Looking at Yan Shaoge's serious expression, not seeming to be joking anymore, Yang Xinghe asked tentatively.

Yan Shaoge got up, walked to the outer hall, picked up a cup of tea, no matter whether it was cold or not, he gulped it down, suppressing the warm current in his body.

Turning his back to Yang Xinghe, he said lightly. "If there were no traitors, I would not have believed that Fan Ni could have escaped silently from the watchful eyes of more than a dozen experts from Xuantian Division."

"That's it." Yang Xinghe wanted to say that all the masters of Xuan Tiansi came to protect you, young master.However, as soon as this idea was born, it was rejected by myself.

Even if they want to protect Xuantian Si Shaofu, it is impossible for all these masters to come to Yan Shaoge's side.

Surprisingly, there was not a single expert left beside Fan Ni's carriage, only four ordinary guards.

When questioned afterwards, all four said they found nothing unusual.At that time Yang Xinghe suspected that the four of them must have some kind of secret technique, so they forgot what happened at that time.

"You want to understand too, don't you?" Yan Shaoge had a smirk on his lips.
