604 Union
Yang Xixuan took Ziheng away from the execution ground. They didn't go back to the government office, and the direction they walked was not outside the city. It took Ziheng a while to feel that something was wrong, "Uncle, where are we going?"

Yang Xixuan played with the horsewhip in his hand, "You'll know when you get there."

After two cups of tea, Ziheng came to a small, low courtyard. There were similar courtyards nearby. The civilian area, which was supposed to be lively, was extremely strange today, and there was no sound at all.

Ziheng got off his horse with his uncle, and walked into the courtyard. The low courtyard wall could not block the view from the outside, and Ziheng could see the adjacent courtyard when standing in the courtyard.

Yang Xixuan had already walked into the secret passage along the excavated steps, and Ziheng quickly raised his heels up. The entrance of the secret passage was not wide, but as he entered the interior of the secret passage, the secret passage became wider visible to the naked eye.

Ziheng didn't know how long he walked around, his good sense of direction failed, so he could only follow his uncle forward step by step until he climbed the steps and walked out of the secret passage.

Ziheng narrowed his eyes uncomfortably when he came out, and looked around after a while, "This is Xiaoliangshan."

Xiaoliangshan is famous for its springs, and there are many summer resorts at the foot of the mountain. Ziheng also got a Zhuangzi, so he is quite familiar with Xiaoliangshan.

Yang Xixuan took Ziheng into the discovered cave. The original low entrance was dug open, and the cave was very rugged. After a cup of tea, they arrived at the destination, a dug cave.

Ziheng's eyes widened. The cave was full of boxes. The boxes had already been opened, and the jewels were illuminated by the light of the torch. Ziheng took a breath, "Hiss, how many jewels have been looted?"

There was a smile on Yang Xixuan's face, which was the surprise discovered by the cleaning spies, "Now it's all mine."

Ziheng picked up the bracelet made by Blood Coral, "Where did the spies get the jewelry?"

Yang Xixuan had a strange expression, "It was dug out of the secret tunnel."

Ziheng suspected that he had misheard, "Huh?"

Yang Xixuan was very patient with his nephew, "The secret passage you just walked through is huge, and these spies didn't stop digging the secret passage. Fortunately, they dug a secret room and moved all of them out."

Ziheng opened his mouth wide, "Is it okay?"

Yang Xixuan was eager to try, "I want to continue digging along the secret path."

He dug purposefully, and he might be able to dig more hidden treasure chambers.

Ziheng twitched his lips, "Uncle, this idea is bad."

Yang Xixuan laughed, "I'm just thinking about it, but this secret road is very useful. If anything goes wrong in Jiaozhou, I can use the secret road to quickly control the city."

Ziheng was very curious, "So who is the unlucky guy who was dug up to hide the treasure room?"

Yang Xixuan snorted, "The family was wiped out two years ago."

Ziheng understood, these spies were also afraid of being exposed, so they started.

Yang Xixuan pointed to the two boxes of jewelry, "This is for your sister-in-law."

Ziheng felt that my sister-in-law would not keep the jewels if she got them. As he guessed, he personally delivered the jewels to my sister-in-law.

Zhou Ran really has no shortage of jewelry. The jewelry in the box is not well sealed, and some of them have lost their luster. "I want to pray for the lost children. The medicinal materials will be used for free clinics, and the food will be donated to the orphanage."

Ziheng observed his sister-in-law's complexion, and seeing that her complexion was not bad, he could finally feel relieved, "Okay, I will personally take care of it."

Zhou Ran's eyes were very relieved that the eldest nephew could take care of the Zhou family.

Ziheng has no shortage of connections to exchange medicinal materials and food, and the family in Ruizhou is not short of food, and medicinal materials can also be exchanged with some foreign merchants.

When Ziheng was busy, Yang Xixuan left Jiaozhou. He had been in Jiaozhou for a long time, and this time he left to inspect several states in Hengzhou.

On the side of Yang Xi and his wife, the couple are used to their roles. Zhou Yu also tried frying big pot dishes. Xiao Ma and Ming Jiao tasted them personally. Even if the big pot dishes were not delicious, they ate a lot. There are very few such opportunities.

When the team arrived in Yizhou, Yang Xi still remembered that child labor was employed. She had no choice but to ask Xiao Ma and Zhu Hong to go to see the boy in person.

Because of the postponement of the trip, the boy still insisted on continuing the investigation. The boy's meticulousness was rewarded the most, and Xiao Ma took the boy's family to the team.

Along with the boy came thick papers for investigation.

Yang Xi watched the paper being fed into the carriage, she could only resist the urge to watch, and continued to play the female soldier guarding the carriage.

As Lizhou approached, accidents occurred frequently in the team, until the last night in Yizhou, the carriage where Yang Xi and his wife were in caught fire.

Flames started to ignite in other parts of the team, and the wagons carrying grain and grass were all set ablaze.

Yang Xi clenched the long knife in his hand, and the sound of arrows piercing through the air sounded, and all the arrows were aimed at the carriage of Yang Xi and his wife. This was only the first wave, and soon the second wave arrived. , A dead man rushed to the carriage.

Before Yang Xi could react, she was lifted up, and when she realized it was a pony, the pony rode her away from the carriage.

After the horse ran for a certain distance, only hearing the sound of gunpowder exploding, Yang Xi couldn't help but look back, the carriage had been blown over.

Yang Xi looked at the flames around him. Tonight there are not only internal ghosts, but also a large number of foreign enemies. The dead soldiers are not afraid of life and death, which caused a lot of impact on the team.

Yang Xi and Zhou Yu meet, their husband and wife are personally protected by Xiao Ma, Zhou Yu holds his wife's hand tightly, only in this way can he feel at ease.

Listening to the shouts of killing, Yang Xi said, "I have reason to suspect that several forces have joined forces."

Zhou Yu also thought the same way. The power of one party did not have such a big hand. You must know that their returning team consisted of almost [-] soldiers. With such a huge team, only a combination of multiple parties could have the possibility of a successful assassination.

Moreover, on the way back, the team continued to make small moves, and the assassination failed again and again, which also prompted the alliance of various forces.

Xiao Ma's eyes were like torches, and he was vigilant all around. The soldiers who played Yang Xi and his wife in front of him were exposed. The dead soldiers had no chance to rush over. The night was very long, and the fire in the team dispelled the darkness, especially around Yang Xi and his wife, even if there was no moonlight , Yang Xi can also see the surrounding situation clearly.

After all the assassins were killed, Ming Jiao appeared. At this time, Ming Jiao's body was covered with blood, including his own and enemies. Ming Jiao's arm was simply treated.

Zhou Yu asked with concern, "Can a knife carry poison?"

Ming Jiao smiled heartily, "There is no poison on the knife."

There was no poison on the knife, but the arrow had been soaked in poison. Even if the guards who were hit by the arrow took the antidote, some of them did not survive.

Xiao Ma was more concerned, "Have you caught all the thieves?"

They have been holding back these days just to find out all the insiders, confirming the scope again and again, and finally confirmed the list.

Ming Jiao endured the pain, with a look of unwillingness, "Only three people were caught alive, and the rest all committed suicide."
