A knife in love

Chapter 2450
Early the next morning, before dawn, Li Qiufeng went to the main room in the backyard to ask to see Xu Yingyang.A Jinyi guard guarding the door said that Xu Yingyang hadn't returned all night, so Li Qiufeng had to pace back and forth in front of the main room.It wasn't until daylight that Xu Yingyang brought a few Jin Yiwei back to the magistrate's yamen.Seeing Li Qiufeng lingering in the yard, Xu Yingyang smiled and said: "Last night, I met several big households in the city and discussed until four o'clock. There is an old Mr. Pang in the city. His son works in the Ministry of Rites in the capital. Xu had some friendship, so he kindly invited him, but Xu refused, so he had to stay overnight at Pang's house. He was just worried that it would be too troublesome for Mr. Pang to keep Xu for breakfast, so he took advantage of the early days Liang, Xu took a few brothers and left in a hurry without even saying hello, which was somewhat rude."

While talking, Xu Yingyang let Li Qiufeng into the main room.After entering the room, Xu Yingyang turned around and said to the Jinyi guards who stayed outside the door: "The brothers have been tossing around with Xu for a whole night, and I think they are exhausted. Go back to your respective rooms and have a good sleep."

Several Jin Yiwei bowed to salute, then turned and left.The brocade guard guarding the door of the main room gently closed the door, and then retreated into the courtyard.Xu Yingyang asked Li Qiufeng to sit down, and said in his mouth: "Master Li came to find Xu early in the morning. He must have something important to discuss. If you have anything to say, just talk about it."

Li Qiufeng was not polite to Xu Yingyang, so he told what happened at Dongsheng Inn last night.Xu Yingyang still had a smile on his face at the beginning, but after hearing that, his expression became extremely stern. After Li Qiufeng finished speaking, he walked around the room for a few steps, and then said in a deep voice: "Unexpectedly, Xu thought that It's a trick, but I didn't expect that there were Japanese spies slipping through the net. If Master Li and Miss Murong were not cautious and dug up this monkey boy, I'm afraid we would have to fall into his hands."

Li Qiufeng shook his head, and said in his mouth: "Master Xu has wiped out all the Japanese pirates hiding in the city, and the remaining two guys escaped by chance, so they can only hide in Dongsheng Inn. They dare not show up easily, and they can't make any big waves. .”

Xu Yingyang sighed, glanced at Li Qiufeng, and said with a wry smile: "Master Li said this, Xu felt even more ashamed. Fortunately, Master Li killed one spy, and the remaining spy was also punished by Master Li." The coercion frees us from worries. But we have to keep an eye on this spy so that he won't make trouble in the dark and cause trouble."

After Xu Yingyang said this, he strode to the door, stretched out his hand and pushed the door open, called the Jin Yiwei who was guarding the courtyard to him, and whispered a few words.The Jin Yiwei bowed his hands and saluted, turned and walked out of the backyard.Xu Yingyang walked back to Li Qiufeng, and said: "Master Jiang is indeed a talent. He divided the people into three teams and built the city in turn. Just now, after Xu left from Pang's house, he took a walk to the south of the city. Seeing that the city wall has already been erected eight feet high, in another day and night, we will surely be able to build a two-foot high city wall. At that time, we will be more confident in dealing with the Japanese pirates."

Li Qiufeng nodded, and said in his mouth: "The little monkey contacted the envoy sent by Liu Shengdan Mashou. It seems that the Fusang army will not be able to reach Dongliao County within three days. If the city wall can be built within one or two days, it will be a big deal for us. That's good news."

When the two were talking, they could only hear the sound of footsteps in the courtyard. A moment later, someone knocked on the door lightly and said: "This subordinate is ordered to come to see the governor."

Xu Yingyang sat back on the chair and said in a deep voice, "Brothers, come in."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the room was pushed open, and three Jin Yiwei walked in.All three of them were dressed in black, with embroidered spring knives hanging from their waists, and looked extremely mighty at first glance.The three Jin Yiwei stopped in front of Xu Yingyang, and all bowed to salute.Xu Yingyang raised his right hand falsely and said in his mouth: "The three brothers don't need to be too polite. The situation is critical now, and I don't want to be courteous to the three brothers. There is an inn in the city called Dongsheng Inn. There is a young man in the inn who is called The little monkey is not named. This person is a spy of the Japanese pirates, hiding in the inn, looking for news in the city."

When Xu Yingyang said this, he paused for a while, and then continued: "Master Li went out personally last night, captured this spy, and forced him to be our eyeliner. It's just that Fusang people are always treacherous, so they must not be trusted. From today on , the three brothers must keep a close eye on this spy, watch his every move, and report to the official no matter how big or small it is. Do you hear me clearly?"

The three Jin Yiwei clasped their hands and said, "This subordinate understands."

Xu Yingyang nodded, and then said: "Just keep an eye on this spy, and don't act rashly to startle the snake. Even if there are Japanese pirates who come to Dongsheng Inn to meet this spy, you must not take anyone. You have to report the matter to me. After the official, how to deal with it is up to the official to decide."

The three Jin Yiwei bowed and agreed.Xu Yingyang nodded, then turned to Li Qiufeng and said, "What do you want Master Li to say?"

Li Qiufeng pondered for a moment, then said: "This spy will go out of the city every three days to meet the Japanese pirates outside the city. The three adults only need to keep an eye on him, and don't disturb him. This spy doesn't know martial arts. But the Japanese pirates who met him outside the city are very skilled in martial arts, the three adults must be careful."

After hearing Li Qiufeng's words, the three guards in Jinyi nodded their heads one after another, but did not speak.It's just that after Li Qiufeng finished speaking, his heart skipped a beat, thinking that the little monkey doesn't know martial arts, and before going out of the city, he relied on his accomplices to lead him up and down.Now that Little Monkey's accomplice has been killed by himself, if he wants to go out of the city again, it will be difficult for him to reach the sky.

Thinking of this, Li Qiufeng couldn't help but frowned, and his thoughts changed sharply.Seeing Li Qiufeng's appearance, Xu Yingyang smiled slightly, and said, "Master Li, is there something embarrassing? If Master Li thinks highly of Xu, you can tell the matter as much as you want, maybe someone can help you."

Hearing what Xu Yingyang said, Li Qiufeng thought to himself, although the little monkey is only fourteen or fifteen years old, he is extremely cunning, he must be able to sneak out of Dongliao County, why should I worry about him?Thinking of this, Li Qiufeng shook his head, and said in his mouth: "Thank you, Mr. Xu. Li just remembered a small matter, which is nothing to worry about, and I will not ask Mr. Xu to help."

Xu Yingyang smiled slightly, and waved to the three Jin Yiwei.The three Jin Yiwei bowed and saluted, then turned and left.Li Qiufeng said to Xu Yingyang: "Master Xu has been running around all night, and he is quite tired after thinking about it. It is better to rest earlier, and Mr. Li will not bother you."

Xu Yingyang heard what Li Qiufeng said, but he didn't want to stay.The two chatted for a few more words, then Li Qiufeng took his leave and left.He returned to the wing room where he lived, but saw Murong Danyan pacing up and down in the room.Seeing Li Qiufeng coming back, Murong Danyan came forward to meet him, and said in his mouth: "Brother Li, I'm going to visit Sister Xiaoyu, and I'm afraid you won't find me when you come back. Come and tell you."
