The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 1178 General Huaiyuan

"Haha! This general heard that the imperial court sent an imperial envoy to the border. I expected it to arrive in a few days. I just waited and waited but still didn't come, so I couldn't help but feel anxious. But what happened to the imperial envoy on the way? If I had known this, this general would It should be a potential person to meet the adults!"

A hearty voice came, and Yin Kun lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage.

Suddenly a bone-piercing cold wind poured into his crane cloak, making him shiver from the cold.

Yin Kun looked towards the person who was speaking, and saw that the person was wearing only a black brocade robe and a red cloak over his head in this icy and snowy place. He let the bitter cold wind rage around him, but he didn't flinch.

This person is seven feet tall, with tiger eyes and sword eyebrows, and a rough and heroic face.Clenching a pair of iron fists together, he bowed to Yin Kun.

"General Chang is too polite. I was delayed on the road for a few days, but the general is worried." Yin Kun thought to himself, this person looks like a general, and he should be the chief general who guards Yuhe Pass, Chang Yuan.

Chang Yuan was born in a poor family and was the champion of martial arts in the 47th year of Dayan.This man is infinitely strong and has superb martial arts skills.The border was constantly being harassed by Daxing, so the emperor asked this person to guard the border.

In the past, he was only the fifth rank, but over the years, he has repeatedly made military exploits, and now he is an official of the third rank, and was even named General Huaiyuan.

Yuheguan is a fortress, and Daxing used to be.If Daxing wants to sneak into the territory of Dayan, the first checkpoint is the Yuhe Pass.

Therefore, after Yin Kun inquired about the news in Fengqing Mansion, he came to Yuhe Pass.There must be something wrong here, I don't know which official colluded with Daxing, this person is really hateful.

After Yin Kun looked at Chang Yuan, he felt that this person was upright and was the chief general, so it was unlikely that he had any collusion with Daxing.If he had the help of this person, he might not have been able to find out the rats who colluded with Daxing earlier.

However, he has always been cautious, and he will never conclude that he is loyal to the court just because of his appearance.It will take a lot of trial and error before a conclusion can be drawn.

"You order people to investigate all the beggars. As long as you feel suspicious, they will be arrested. After the investigation, let them go."

Gu Chengyu gave instructions to Ming Mo who came over, and then asked Ming Yan to bring Zhou Congyuan up, and put him in the prison first, and then make plans after reporting to the prince.

It's just that Zhou Congyuan is also an idiot this week, since he was not caught, he should hide.Unexpectedly, this person still wanted to assassinate him. Could it be that his life was too long?
Gu Chengyu snorted coldly!When he is made of mud?Even if those assassins could not be caught, with Zhou Congyuan, he would be able to explain to His Highness.

However, Gu Chengyu never likes to give up halfway, since these assassins are still in the capital, there is absolutely no reason to let them go.

He pondered for a moment, then stopped an official from the Military Division, and said, "Go and invite Mr. Peng and Mr. Jiang. I have something important to explain."

He had considered before that if there were too many of these assassins, it would be very easy to be exposed, and they might spread out to hide.

But now that he thought about it, he felt that it was very inconvenient to convene in this way.If you use a password, it will take a lot of time and really delay things.

If Mingdi (a kind of signal flare) is used, the signal can only be transmitted over a short distance.And this method is easy for people to find out, which is really inappropriate.

Thinking about it now, it would be the most trouble-free to divide these people into several groups and spread them out to hide.And what place can accommodate many people without making people suspicious?

"My lord! The lower officials are about to return!"

Gu Chengyu had just sent someone to gather the two of them, and within a quarter of an hour, Peng Fang came.

Gu Chengyu nodded, "Let's talk about it when Jiang Sicheng comes!"

Jiang Shaohua came late, and when he came, he saw Gu Chengyu and Peng Fang waiting for him, so he bowed his hands and apologized.

"It's the official who came late, please forgive me, Mr. Gu!"

Gu Chengyu waved his hand, "No problem! Calling you over here is because I suddenly realized that the search would be futile."

Time is urgent, late makes changes!Without even asking, Gu Chengyu already knew that Jiang Shaohua and Peng Fang would not gain anything.

Jiang Shaohua glanced at Gu Chengyu, "My lord! We have searched the south city and the west city, but we haven't found any assassins! Maybe those assassins have been prepared for a long time, and they have left the city at this moment."

Peng Fang nodded immediately when he heard the words, in fact, he had exactly the same intention.

To the east is the imperial city, and some of the alleys are also occupied by nobles from aristocratic families. Those assassins should not have the guts to break into the aristocratic family's mansion.

Because there are a lot of private soldiers and secret guards in the aristocratic family's mansion, this trip is not a sheep into the mouth of a tiger, so what?

The northern city is also the same as the southern city, all of which are official residences, and most of them are high-ranking officials and noble families, with strict family status, it is really not a good place to hide.

However, the geographical complexity of Nancheng and Xicheng, coupled with the fact that there are many wealthy businessmen coming and going, and the personnel are chaotic, it is very difficult to investigate.

But now that Nancheng and Beicheng have been searched, where is there any assassin?

"I don't think so. There are seven gates in the outer city, and heavy troops have already been sent to guard them. All the gates need guidance, and the local people need to be registered. Outside the gate is the moat. How can they let them go easily?" Can you jump out?"

Gu Chengyu took a look at Jiang Shaohua, who was bowing his head, and couldn't help but feel surprised when he made such a point of view.

Looking at Peng Fang's agreement with Jiang Shaohua's words at first, but after he made such a move, his face also showed a sad look, thinking that he had overturned his previous point of view, Gu Chengyu turned his gaze back.

"Peng Sicheng, you need to bring more people to check the nine escort agencies in Nancheng and Xicheng, and act quickly."

Gu Chengyu was fascinated and transferred Peng Fang out.

Peng Fang was a little puzzled when he heard the words, "My lord! We have carefully investigated this escort agency, and there is no suspicion."

"Have you really checked carefully? How many escorts in those escort bureaus have taken errands to go out? Have new escorts been added during this period of time? Have all the escorts identified each other? Really checked it meticulously? "

Gu Chengyu's expression became solemn, and his eyes shot out sharply, which surprised Peng Fang.

He immediately said seriously: "Yes!"

"If you really find something wrong, you will detain all the people in the escort agency, and make a decision after reporting to the officer!"

Peng Fang quickly bowed down and turned around to count the number of people.

Jiang Shaohua's eyes flickered slightly, and he clenched his hands on his sides, "Master Gu, I don't know where the officer is going to search this time?"

Gu Chengyu looked at Jiang Shaohua with a very condensed gaze, Jiang Shaohua waited for a long while, and couldn't help but feel a sudden jump in his heart.

But for a moment, a lot of sweat stains appeared on his back.I don't know what Gu Chengyu means, can I still have doubts about him?
Not only did Gu Chengyu calm down gradually, "I was thinking about it just now, but I still have to work for Jiang Sicheng to search the major gambling houses."

Jiang Shaohua's breath tightened, "My lord! There are not many gambling houses in this capital, there are only five in total. The owners behind those gambling houses are all very powerful. If we go to check and offend these people, I'm afraid It's going to cause big trouble."
