Chapter 98 The disaster of destroying the door [one more]

Before leaving, Li Huan purposely gave him a brief introduction to Zhao Zhi and Chen Yidao, the backbone of Langqi Island.

It didn't take Li Huando to say, Chen Yao already knew what kind of posture he should take when facing Zhao Zhi and Chen Yidao.

Even though his official position was higher than Zhao Zhi and Chen Yidao, but when facing them, Chen Yao didn't dare to take it seriously at all. Seeing them coming, he hurriedly stood up and saluted.

Chen Yidao supported Chen Yao, grinned and said, "Since Brother Huan sent you to deliver the letter, he must treat you as his own family. We don't care so much, come and tell me, Brother Huan." How is it in the capital now?"

The three of them sat down with each other, and Chen Yao spoke to Chen Yidao and Zhao Zhi about what happened after Li Huan entered the capital, only to hear Chen Yidao's surprise.

Until dinner, Chen Yidao and Zhao Zhi still asked Chen Yao about Li Huan as much as possible.

After having dinner and getting along for most of the day, the two sides have roughly understood each other's temperament, and they are already called brothers at this moment.

Zhao Zhi looked at Chen Yao and said, "Brother Chen, I will trouble you to bring some letters when you leave tomorrow."

Chen Yao nodded with a smile: "This matter is simple, just leave it to me."

Early the next morning, Chen Yao, accompanied by Chen Yidao and Zhao Zhi, visited Mrs. Feng and Mrs. Lin, accepted the letter that Mrs. Feng asked him to bring to Li Huan, and then left Langqi Island.

Fuzhou City, in the dead of night, no one can be seen on the street, only the faint sound of a night watchman.

Suddenly, figures wrapped in night clothes appeared on the long street.

I saw these people were all tall and tall, with cold-glowing weapons in their hands, rushing to a mansion silently.

This mansion is not considered luxurious, and the two stone lions at the entrance are not very eye-catching, but it can also be seen that the owner of this place is a member of the government.

One of the men in black waved his hand, and suddenly one after another figure leaped over the wall and jumped into the courtyard, and soon there was an extremely suppressed shout.

"Kill me, everyone in the house, but not a single living thing!"

Soon there was a scream, during which there was an angry roar, and there was even the sound of fierce fighting, but after a while, the sound of fighting disappeared.

It didn't take long before a little bit of fire gradually spread, and even the speed of the fire spread was a little abnormal. It was clear that someone had deliberately added combustion-supporting materials. In the blink of an eye, the entire mansion was engulfed in flames.

As soon as the fire spread, the group of men in black disappeared at the corner of the street. At this time, someone saw the fire screaming in horror, and soon half of Fuzhou City was alarmed.

Chen Yao left Fuzhou City and went to Langqi Islet. He came back and forth, plus he stayed in Langqi Islet for one day. When he returned to Fuzhou City, it took exactly three days.

Looking at the tall city gate from a distance, Chen Yao felt quite relaxed. Now he only needs to meet Han Ling, then he has completed the task Li Huan gave him this time, and he can return to Beijing Returned.

While thinking about it, he suddenly glanced and saw a group of people gathered around the gate of the city, as if they were looking at the notice posted on the city wall.

Looking at the group of people, Chen Yao felt a little curious in his heart, and subconsciously stepped forward to take a look. The content of the notice was extremely frightening. It was actually a group of pirates who wanted to kill officials and rebel.

Chen Yao couldn't help being startled. In this day and age, killing an official is tantamount to rebellion. Naturally, few people dare to blatantly kill an official. He never thought that such a shocking thing would happen in Fuzhou City.

Suddenly, a person beside him stroked his beard, and sighed with a look of familiarity: "It is only those pirates with bloody hands who dare to do such a rebellious thing!"

A person next to him heard the words: "I heard that the incident this time was very serious. The person who died was not an ordinary person. It is said that he was an officer of a thousand households of Jinyiwei. I didn't see that the entire Fuzhou city was under martial law! It seems that the guard outside the city All the soldiers and horses have entered the city."

Chen Yao, who was about to leave and didn't take it seriously at first, stopped suddenly, his body froze, and his eyes were full of shock and disbelief.

Chen Yao wondered if he had heard it wrong. According to what that person said just now, the person who was killed by the pirates turned out to be the official of the Thousand Households of Jinyiwei.

But as far as he knew, there was only one Jinyiwei Thousand-Household Officer in this huge Fujian, and it was Han Ling, the Jinyiwei Thousand-Household Officer who was in charge of the Jinyiwei Thousand-Household Office in Fuzhou Prefecture.

However, he only met Han Ling three days ago, and even when he was parting, Han Ling made a special appointment to meet at his mansion today.

It's just that in just two or three days, such an astonishing change happened.

Calming his mind, Chen Yao pricked up his ears, and began to pay attention to the comments of other people around him, while he himself was normal, just like everyone around him, looking curious and joining in the fun.

After a while, Chen Yao withdrew from the crowd. At this moment, he was sure that the one killed was Han Ling who had met him not long ago.

Moreover, the murder happened last night. According to the news he heard, it seemed that it was the third watch last night.

A group of thieves came out of nowhere and directly entered Han Ling's house. There were more than a dozen servants in Han's house, but none of them survived.

In the end, that group of thieves set off a big fire, directly burning Han Mansion to nothingness.

Now Chen Yao looked at the city gate again, his heart throbbed, and he took a deep breath, Chen Yao calmly and slowly followed the flow of people leaving the city.

It wasn't until some distance away from the city gate that Chen Yao breathed a sigh of relief.

Based on Chen Yao's many years of experience, even though the information he had was extremely limited, Chen Yao could feel that Han Ling's death might be weird just from the comments of those people.

Generally speaking, thieves kill more for the purpose of plundering money, and there are many families of wealthy businessmen and gentry in the city, so you can feel free to rob them.

It is rare to hear that thieves will take the initiative to provoke people in the government, especially Jin Yiwei Qianhu like Han Ling, and no one is willing to provoke.

But listening to those people's comments, except for Han Ling's family who was wiped out, the rest of the officialdom or wealthy families were not affected. It was obvious that they were running for Han Ling.

"Could it be that……"

A thought flashed through Chen Yao's mind, and then he shivered. He looked at the clothes on his body. Fortunately, he was wearing ordinary clothes today, not the official uniform of Jinyiwei Baihu, otherwise he suspected that he might appear in the People were watching at the gate of the city.

Taking a deep breath, Chen Yao looked around to make sure that he was not being followed by anyone, and then he glanced in the direction of Fuzhou City, his eyes showed a bit of brilliance, he recognized the direction, and strode away.
