Dajin royal family

Chapter 337
Kuaiji County, Kuaiji County.

There are dense river networks around Kuaiji County, which lead directly to the East China Sea, and the surrounding fishery is very developed.

As the saying goes, you rely on mountains to eat mountains, and rely on water to eat water.

This is not a land of fish and rice right now, it's just a remote town.

A boat was floating on the river, surrounded by early-rising women washing clothes on the bank, and occasionally one or two young ladies frolicking by the river, and the older women laughed and joked.

This place is very different from the outside world. The signs of riots and riots seem to have disappeared without a trace here.

"A paradise."

Chen Qiujin fished the bow alone, Sima Fa and Shen Xing stood behind him, and behind them were the guards in the cabin.

"My lord, the boat is fine, can I catch fish here?" Sima Fa asked with a smile.

"Hehe, the boat is moving, the bait is also moving, and the fish will follow." Chen Qiujin smiled, as if he was not fishing, but just enjoying the fun of fishing.

It was spring at this time, everything was recovering, the weather was getting warmer, and a group of wild ducks passed by on the water surface, causing ripples.

Shen Xing said: "Xiao Yu'er has indeed followed, but the subordinates still have some doubts."

"You are wondering, obviously there is no bait left, but how did the fish follow me?" Chen Qiujin said.

"Master Mingjian."

"Mr. Sima, tell him." Chen Qiujin slightly closed his eyes, enjoying the cool morning air.

Sima Fa smiled wryly, and said, "A big fish died, and those small fish chased after the smell."

Big fish?

Shen Xing was taken aback for a moment, then he remembered that he hadn't seen Hou Jing for a long time.

"The subordinate understands." Shen Xing said: "Master, do you want the subordinate to send them away?"

"Do not."

Chen Qiujin raised his hand to stop, then opened his eyes, and said calmly: "The hunter and the prey always change in an instant."

Sima Fa worried: "My lord, didn't you say that we are going to lie dormant, and at this time we will kill them openly, over to the faint king."

"Don't worry about Hunjun, his energy is no longer on us."

While talking, Chen Qiujin took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Sima and Fa behind him.

The two of them opened the letter and read it carefully, surprises appearing on their faces at the same time.

"My lord, this is the perfect time to start an incident!" Shen Xing said.

Sima Fa responded: "Yes, my lord, the Hunjun has to deal with the bandits in Qingzhou and the rebellion in Guanzhong at the same time. This is a god-sent opportunity!"

A sneer flashed across the corner of Chen Qiujin's mouth, and he slowly retracted the fishing rod, only to find that there was no bait on it.

"Can't move yet."

After saying a word, Chen Qiujin rolled up his sleeves and stringed the bait by himself.

Both Sima Fa and Shen Xing were a little confused.

"My lord, why is this?" Shen Xing asked puzzled.

Chen Qiujin said: "We people in the court are not qualified to touch such things. If what is written in this secret letter is true, do you think the foolish emperor will publicize this matter?"

Hearing this, the two looked at each other speechlessly.

This is also true, how could the emperor tell others about such a big matter, at most he would only discuss it with a few confidant ministers.

And their eyeliner in the court did not have the emperor's confidants.

"Could it be that this letter is a fake?" Sima Fa doubted.

"I don't know, but I have already sent someone to verify it." Chen Qiujin said: "But now it is very clear that someone wants us to rebel immediately. No matter what the purpose of this person is, we must proceed carefully."

"Yes, my lord."

Just then, the boat docked.

Not far away, a man came quickly on horseback, got off his horse a dozen or so steps closer.

"My lord, the county magistrate of Kuaiji was imprisoned by the court for the crime of collaborating with the enemy."

Chen Qiujin nodded calmly, this kind of thing was not beyond his expectation.

"It seems that the opponent is coming aggressively this time." Shen Xing said in a low voice.

Sima Fa said: "If my prediction is correct, it must be that last time they suffered a defeat in Qiantang County and the emperor was furious, so this time they got a little wind and started to attack."

"My lord, what should we do?"

Chen Qiujin sneered and said, "When you come to the southeast border, don't leave."

Kuaiji County Yamen.

The people of the inner guards have completely controlled this place. According to the information provided by Hou Jing, this is a stronghold of the Nanchenhui, and the county magistrate is a member of the Nanchenhui.

An internal guard walked into the yamen, came to the back hall, and saw Shen Guang and Chen Leng.

"Two generals, he recruited."

"How about it? Is he from Nanchenhui?" Chen Leng was a little nervous. This was the last location Hou Jing revealed. If they still can't catch anyone, they will really send their heads back to deal with business.

"Yes, he is indeed a member of Nanchenhui, and his status is not low, so he has revealed a lot."

Shen Guang clapped his hands excitedly.

"it is good!"

Chen Ling said: "Go on."

"He said that he has never met the leader, and he only met one person every time he was ordered to complete the tasks assigned by the leader."

"who's that person?"

"Sima Fan."

Hearing this, both Shen Guang and Chen Leng were a little disappointed, Sima Fa and the others already knew about it.

"How about this, you go down and continue to torture him, and find out the letters and documents between him and the leader of the Southern Chen Society." Chen Ling said.

"Yes." The inner guard bowed and retreated.

Shen Guang sighed, "Yes, the clue is broken again."

"Not necessarily. At least we caught one this time. We'll question Hou Jing carefully when we go back. Maybe we can get some other news." Chen Leng comforted.

Shen Guang could only nod his head.

Suddenly, he realized something.

"No, no, no."

After saying no three times in a row, his complexion instantly became extremely gloomy.

"What's wrong?" Chen Leng asked strangely.

Shen Guang stared at Chen Leng, "Tell me, it's impossible for the people in the South Chenhui not to know that we have captured Hou Jing. Since they know that we have captured Hou Jing, why don't they dare to withdraw?"

"The last time we went to Qiantang, they should have been vigilant, but Kuaiji was still taken by us, don't you think it's strange?"

Having said that, Chen Ling's hair stood on end, and he realized that he might have slipped into the opponent's trap.

"This is a trap set by the other party"

Before Chen Ling finished speaking, there was a sudden shout of killing outside.

"not good!"

Both of them realized that things had changed and immediately ordered to retreat.

At this moment, the entire Kuaiji county government office has been surrounded by Chen Qiujin's men, and they rushed to kill the county government office one after another.

There are surprisingly few pedestrians outside, and occasionally someone will immediately hide in the house when they see it.

Bandits rebelled, and such things happened endlessly. Although Kuaiji County hadn't appeared yet, the people fleeing in Qingzhou had already told them.

"My lord, are we going to catch someone alive?" Sima Fa asked.

Chen Qiujin drank the tea from the stall, shook his head, and looked up at the owner of the tea stall.

"Boss, give me another bowl."

The owner of the tea stall was a little scared when he saw the big and three rough men around Chen Qiujin, but he had no choice but to bite the bullet and go over to refill Chen Qiujin's tea.

While pouring the water, the tea stall owner's hand was trembling, and it fell into Chen Qiujin's eyes. He smiled slightly and couldn't help comforting him.

"My master, don't be afraid. I'm a member of the imperial court. I'm cleaning up the bandits who broke into the county government. I won't harm you."

The owner of the tea stall nodded foolishly, added water, and quickly hid aside.

"I don't need to live, I said, if you come to the southeast border, you don't have to go."

As Chen Qiujin's voice fell, a crossbow shot up into the sky, like black rain, and landed in the county government office.

At night, Chen Qiujin's men had entered the yamen.

"Reporting to my lord, there are 78 corpses in total, and two escaped."

Chen Qiujin frowned, and scolded: "What are you doing to eat? Hundreds of people surrounded and suppressed, and people escaped. A bunch of wine bags and rice bags."

Shen Xing said: "My lord, don't worry, my subordinates have already ordered the city gates to be closed in the name of the county magistrate. They either hid in the city, or escaped by water."

"Find them and kill them!" Chen Qiujin gave the order, immediately took out a silver ingot from his sleeve, put it on the table, got up and left.

Seeing that everyone had left, the owner of the tea stall walked over to pick up the silver, put it in his mouth and bit it.

After a long time, his eyes widened.

"Damn, are you really from the imperial court?"

On the other side, Chen Leng and Shen Guang, who was injured by an arrow, escaped from Kuaiji through the river.

"General Chen, hurry up, I can't do it anymore." Panting, Shen Guang looked at the arrow on his shoulder and shook his head.

Chen Leng's face turned gray.

"Go? Where can I go? Returning to the court is still a dead end."

Hearing this, Shen Guang paused.

Yes, back to the court, the emperor will still kill them.

Where can they go?
