Step on a branch

Chapter 361 Became their resident city

The entrance is located in a study.

It is blocked by the Bogu shelf, and there are vases and utensils, which is not conspicuous.

Yun Zao said: "This is the study of the Sixth Old Master."

Marquis Yongning made a gesture, and bowed into the tunnel. The first ten or so steps were very narrow and low. After walking forward, he could gradually straighten his body, and it was much more spacious.

Instead of going on, he withdrew.

Soon, several agile soldiers entered the tunnel.

"It will be soon after that," Marquis Yongning and Qin Luan explained, "No matter where the tunnel leads, just follow it. The most difficult thing to find is the entrance."

However, as long as one entrance is found, the rest can also be scooped up together.

Sure enough, by the time the sun rose, the tunnel had almost been explored.

One of the exits leads to the outside of Qiyang city.

Thinking about it, Yan Cui and others who fled would definitely choose to leave the city.

Qin Luan sent all the news of the night to the government office.

Qiyang City in the daytime looks busier than at night, but because of an accident, everyone is cautious.

Both inside and outside the government office were replaced by people brought by Lin Fan.

Fang Tianfei ran to greet him, saluted, and said, "Master read the case file all night."

Qin Luan nodded: "You lead me there."

In the study, the lights have been blown out.

Lin Fan stayed up all night, and kept looking through the firelight. Although he was in good spirits, his eyes were a little tired.

He closed his eyes and pressed slightly.

Beside him, Tang Cho was still sitting on the teacher's chair, looking sickly.

The tongue-twisting talisman has been ripped off a long time ago, and here he is, telling Lin Fan honestly all the data that has been concealed and underreported in the past few years, and told him which shelf to search for the correct one. paperwork.

Lin Fan asked, memorized, and flipped through a lot, until dawn.

While pressing the center of his eyebrows, footsteps came from outside.

Lin Fan recognized it immediately.

This is Qin Luan.

He hurriedly opened his eyes, and then, he saw Qin Luan walking quickly in the yard outside the study.

Looking at each other, Qin Luan rolled his eyes, and Lin Fan also laughed.

It's amazing.

Just seeing her, all the tiredness of the night disappeared.

Lin Fan got up and greeted him.

The two stood in the corridor, Qin Luan asked softly: "Fang Tian said you read the documents all night."

When Lin Fan heard this, he smiled again.

That's what Fang Tian is good at.

Regardless of whether he was belatedly aware or not, he never lagged behind when he "bragged" about Lin Fan's hard work and efforts.

It is hard work to buy porridge, and it is also hard work to stay up all night.

"When I was in the Chiyiwei Yamen, it's not like I didn't check all night," Lin Fan said, "After I went to Feimenguan, I lost such opportunities."

Even if he stayed up all night, what he was facing was not a thick document, but a battle situation.

Pointing to the study behind him, Lin Fan said again: "The prefect of Tang is very cooperative. If those people who were interrogated before had the cooperation of the prefect of Tang, then they will be relieved."

Qin Luan smiled: "The Yan family has escaped a few times, and the tunnel has been found out."

Lin Fan glanced at the tunnel map Qin Luan gave him, and shook his head repeatedly.

"Tang Cho probably doesn't know, the Yan family has dug Qiyang City inside and out." Lin Fan said.

Qin Luan replied: "From the traces, some tunnels may have been dug out during the previous dynasty."

While the two were talking, a few more people came ahead.

The first ones were An Beihou and Feng Zhong in casual clothes.

Anbeihou said: "All the mines are under control, and we have brought back all the ledgers found in them, and you will have a look at them later."

Lin Fan talked about the harvest in the city.

Feng Zhong scolded "Mother": "You are so courageous."

An Beihou and Lin Fan cupped their hands together, and said, "General Feng and I will lead our troops back to Beijing."

Lin Fan returned the salute and said, "Thank you for your great righteousness, it's so convenient."

Marquis Anbei smiled wryly, and said: "Whether we will meet each other in battle or whether we will obey, it depends on the answer that Marquis Yongning gives."

Feng Zhong, who was mumbling and cursing, became serious after hearing this.

"In this world, everyone has their own difficulties," Feng Zhong said in a deep voice, "whether it is forced, or as a last resort, or what, as long as you are worthy of the parents of heaven and earth, don't think about right or wrong."

Lin Fan nodded.

An Beihou and Feng Zhong came in a hurry and left in a hurry.

Wearing casual clothes, no one can prove that the two acquiesced to the "rebels" entering Qiyang City.

Lin Fan watched them leave, then turned his head and smiled at Qin Luan.

They are finally going to take the road on the side of Lord Qing.

The current situation is much better than expected.

There is no blocking army in front for the time being, behind them are Feimen Pass and Xizhou City, and they also hold Qi Yang in their hands.

The hometown of the Yan family became their resident city.

"Will the empress dowager faint?" Qin Luan asked softly.

"Who knows," Lin Fan said, "The emperor must be very angry."

It was raining in the capital at this time.

Thunderstorms continued this summer, and after a while, it was supposed to be autumn, but this year's summer is long, and the rain can't dispel the heat.

In the Thousand Steps Corridor, Huang Taishi took over the document from the junior official.

Open it and see that this is exactly the one Qin Yin sent back from Feimenguan before leaving.

The tone is respectful and sincere, but Grand Master Huang felt a toothache from reading it.

He said to Fan Taibao: "The Marquis of Yongning wants the class teacher to return to the imperial court."

Fan Taibao frowned slightly.

Will it be that simple?
Qin Yin rushed to the border, took the tiger talisman, and told all the rest of the family to leave the capital in full, making preparations early in the morning to raise troops on the Qing emperor's side.

Will he return to the court honestly and hand over all the soldiers in his hands?

impossible.

Even if the empress dowager killed Deng Guoshi immediately, Qin Yin couldn't find the "side" to be cleared for a while, so he wouldn't be caught without a fight.

After receiving the brochure from Taishi Huang, Fan Taibao couldn't help rubbing his cheeks after reading it.

What is provocation, this is it!
People who don't know it look at it, it's a sincere and touching thing.

But in the eyes of the insider, every single word is like coptis.

They looked at the toothache, and the emperor looked at it, and his heart was terribly bitter.

Fan Taibao didn't know whether he should sympathize with the emperor or not. He said that Qin Yin was an upright person, and that an upright person looked like a shabby person, that was really yin and yang.

"Let's go," Fan Taibao returned the notebook to Taishi Huang, "it has to be sent to the imperial study."

Grand Master Huang took a sip of tea, eased his teeth, and left the study.

The rain has subsided a little.

The people I met saluted when they saw Taishi Huang.

"Is there anything urgent? You might as well wait for the rain to stop..."

"The Marquis of Yongning handed over the notebook and returned, and the class teacher will return to court, so I have to send it to the imperial study." Huang Taishi said.

He walked slowly, and before he could get out of the thousand-step corridor, someone caught up behind him.

It was Dong Shilang who came.

He didn't bother to open the umbrella, his official uniform was wet: "I heard that the Marquis of Yongning is going back to court? What did the brochure say?"

Borrowing half an umbrella for him, Grand Master Huang asked him to dry his hands again, took out the booklet, and said, "Look for yourself?"

　See you tomorrow, book friends~~
