Jinghong Tower

Xiaoli had quick eyesight and grabbed the man's clothes at the back. The man had no ability to resist and was restrained by Xiaoli, unable to break free.

At this time, people from behind caught up with him. He Ran saw that the people coming were a man and a woman.

Both of them are in their twenties, short, dark and muscular.

Seeing that the man had been restrained, the two of them thanked him: "This man stole our money. Thank you both for your help."

Xiaoli didn't let go of the man, but looked at He Ran.

He Ran could tell that although the two men spoke Mandarin, they had thick accents. Looking closer, she saw that the man had piercings in the earlobes of both ears.

Of course, some Han men wear earrings, but they are very few.

Looking at the man restrained by Xiaoli, he was unkempt and could not tell whether he was male or female.

After the two thanked her, Xiaoli didn't let the person go. The two looked at each other, and the woman walked up to Xiaoli with a smile and said, "Girl, hand this person over to me. She stole my money."

Just as Xiaoli was about to speak, He Ran said: "Since he is a thief, let's take him to the Yamen. You two are the victims, so go with him."

The two of them were startled, obviously not expecting that she would say this.

At some point, people were crowding around to watch the excitement. Everyone was pointing and pointing. When He Ran said that the person would be sent to the Yamen, someone followed and said, "Yes, of course the thief will be sent to the Yamen if he is caught."

Someone else said: "Yes, yes, since he is a thief, he must have stolen from many people, so he must be sent to the Yamen."

Some enthusiastic people even brought ropes.

Xiaoli was not polite. She took the rope and tied up the man. The man did not resist the whole time.

The face of the man and woman became more and more gloomy at this time, and the man said angrily: "Which yamen are you going to? This person is a runaway slave of my family. I want to take her back for interrogation!"

There was an uproar around him. Just now he was said to be a thief, and now he has become a domestic slave. There must be something fishy about it.

He Ran chuckled: "In this case, we can't let you take people away."

The two people were furious and reached out to grab someone. He Ran stopped him, and the two men punched He Ran. When Xiaoli saw it, he was about to come over to help. He Ran saw it from the corner of his eye and shouted: "Watch that person!"

Xiaoli was startled. She glanced around and saw two people approaching her.

Xiaoli dragged the man to her side and glared at him: "What, you want to rob someone?"

The two men looked fiercely, and one of them drew out a short sword and stabbed at him quickly. Xiaoli quickly drew out the soft sword wrapped around his waist and slashed at the man.

No one expected that the delicate-looking little girl actually had a weapon hidden on her body. The people watching panicked and retreated, and some people had already run to report to the officials.

This place is not far from the Xicheng Army and Horse Department. When the man ran over, the people from the Xicheng Army and Horse Department were about to patrol the streets. They heard that someone was fighting in the street and weapons were used. The people from the Xicheng Army and Horse Department did not dare to neglect it. , ran over at full speed.

He Zhen, the commander of the Xicheng Army and Horses Division, was originally a member of the Eagle Team. He broke an arm while performing a mission. Although he changed to practice swordsmanship with his left hand, the Eagle Team mainly performed special missions. For He Zhen, who had a broken arm. It was still difficult, so He Ran handed over the security of Xicheng to him.

What He Zhen dealt with every day was trivial matters. He felt uncomfortable with his idle time. He finally heard that someone had used weapons in a fight. He Zhen felt like he had been given a shot of chicken blood.

But by the time He Zhen arrived with his men, the fight was over, and the four beaten-up guys were lying on the ground, not knowing whether they were dead or alive.

Was this fatal?

He Zhen yelled: "You dare to hurt people's lives in the imperial city. I think you are tired of living. Hey, big. Big."

Who did he see?
Big boss!
Oh my God, he knew that the head master had not forgotten him. Look, among the five cities in the capital, the head master picked the West City under his jurisdiction to fight. What is this called? This is attention!

Although He Zhen is disabled, he is not crippled. He is still the most valued person in the family!
He Ran didn't let him continue to "big up", and pointed to the four people on the ground: "These four people have suspicious identities, so they were all kidnapped and taken back."

"I have the order!" He Zhen waved his hand, and several of his men came over and took the four seriously injured guys away like dogs to death.

He Ran nodded, Xiaoli mentioned the person she tied up and followed him, and they went to the Xicheng Soldiers and Horses Department together.

The people watching looked at the backs of He Ran and Xiaoli and started talking.

"Those two girls are so powerful. Two of them fought four, and they didn't get hurt at all. They didn't suffer any loss."

"Have you not seen that the people from the Military and Horse Division are respectful to the girl at the head? I guess that girl must have a good background."

"I think they belong to Ran Jun. There are many female generals in Ran Jun, and all of them have outstanding martial arts skills."

"Nonsense, all the female generals are very busy, who would come shopping if they have nothing to do?"

At this time, He Ran, who had come to go shopping for free, was sitting in the Xicheng Bingma Division.

In the past, those who could enter the Five Cities Military and Horse Division were either descendants of distinguished nobles or came from families of military commanders.

When the capital was moved, there were only ten people left in the Five Cities Military and Horse Division. Among these ten people, none could really fight.

Now, except for the interns from the Second Examination of Martial Arts Department in the Wucheng Army, all of them are members of the Ran Army.

People who come out of the army have strong execution ability.

He Ran left the security of the capital to them and was very relieved.

She sat aside drinking tea and handed over the interrogation to He Zhen.

He Zhen didn't take a closer look outside just now. Now back at the Xicheng Military and Horse Division, He Zhen looked at these four people again and again. He walked up to He Ran and whispered: "Master, my subordinates suspect that they are Miao people." Or Dong people.”

At this time, Xiaoli also came over and said to He Ran: "Master, the thief is a woman. She has internal injuries. She said she wants to see you."

He Ran frowned: "You want to see me? Didn't you just meet me?"

Xiaoli said: "She said she wanted to meet Mr. He Da."

He Ran understood, that person wanted to meet Master He, not the person who saved her.

He Ran said to He Zhen: "I'll leave these four people to you, and you will interrogate them first."

She followed Xiaoli to the place where the woman was imprisoned. The woman's messy hair had been combed up, and the dirt was washed away, revealing a face with handsome features.

He Ran walked up to her and said condescendingly: "I am He Ran, do you want to see me?"

The woman was shocked and couldn't believe that she knew this man, the one who had just fought.

"Are you guys lying to me together?"

He Ran smiled and asked, "Are you from Guidi?"

The woman was shocked: "Did you see it?" She was a Han Chinese who grew up in Dongxi. Her appearance looked no different from the Han people in other places, but she didn't expect that she was still noticed.

He Ran nodded: "This is the Xicheng Military and Horse Department, and I am the leader of He you are looking for, He Ran."

The woman didn't believe it at first. She thought that He Ran was aloof and superior, at least she wouldn't meet him on the street.

But for some reason, when she heard the person in front of her say this, she couldn't help but believe it.

This person was very good at fighting, and these officials seemed to respect her very much. He might really be He Ran.

"Are you really the boss?"

He Ran really didn't know how to prove that she was herself, so she had to say: "If you don't believe it, forget it, Xiaoli, let's go."

Xiaoli agreed and followed He Ran out. The woman became anxious when she saw it: "Don't leave, I believe it!"

He Ran smiled and shook her head, walked up to her again and said, "Are you from Nong Liu Niang?"

The woman exclaimed: "You know?"

Seeing how innocent she was, He Ran felt helpless and motioned for her to continue.

The woman was injured and was trying to hold on. She calmed down and then said: "My name is Mu Ling, and I am the maid of the Sixth Lady.

The evil thief Wang Hao bribed the second and third leaders. They deceived Liu Niangzi into Baique Cave and imprisoned her. They asked Nong Dancui, who looked similar to Liu Niangzi, to pretend to be Liu Niangzi and declare that Liu Niangzi was seriously ill. "

He Ran frowned slightly and asked, "The second and third leaders you mentioned are both Nong Liu Niang's brothers?"

To be honest, He Ran knew very little about the Dong people. All she knew was that Nong Liu Niang was originally the wife of Wang Hao, the king of Han. After the couple turned against each other, Nong Liu Niang rose up with the support of her father and brother. Her father was the leader, and she There are ten brothers.

Mu Ling nodded: "Yes, each of Sixth Lady's ten brothers is a leader, and each of them is in charge of a cave. The second leader and the third leader originally had a close personal relationship with Wang Hao. Later, Sixth Lady turned against Wang Hao, and the second leader and the third leader turned against Wang Hao. The leader also supported Liu Niangzi, but he never expected that within a year, they would collude with Wang Hao again. "

He Ran asked: "The Sixth Lady sent you to come to the capital to find me? Ask for help?"

Mu Ling said: "Yes, the Sixth Lady said that in the world, only Master He can help her."

He Ran
"Why doesn't she let you ask for help from the cave master and the other eight leaders?" He Ran asked.

Mu Ling's eyes were full of grief and anger: "The master of the cave has passed away."

Although Mu Ling is Han, she grew up in Dongxi after all. She doesn't speak Chinese well, so He Ran spent a lot of effort to figure things out.

It turned out that the person who really supported Nong Liu Niang's rebellion was her father, the master of the cave. The master of the cave responded to his call, and even if his ten sons had other ideas, they did not dare to disobey.

After Nong Liu Niang raised an army, she quickly captured half of Wang Hao's territory, and her ten brothers were indispensable.

However, just a few months ago, Nong Liu Niang's father, the owner of the cave, passed away, and the cause of death was suspicious. Nong Liu Niang suspected that the Sixth Chief and the Eighth Chief had killed her father.

However, she had no evidence, so when the second and third leaders invited her to Baique Cave, she had no doubts, because what they wanted to discuss was how to defeat the sixth and eighth leaders and avenge the cave owner.

Because it was a secret meeting to avoid the eyes and ears of the Sixth and Eighth Leaders, Nong Liu Niang only took four people to the Baique Cave, and Mu Ling did not follow.

But when they arrived at Baique Cave, Nong Liu Niang was restrained and was imprisoned there.

At the same time, Nong Liu Niang's stepmother Qin Acai brought her half-sister to the military camp. Tan Acai's father was also a local leader. Nong Liu Niang raised an army, and the Tan family also responded. There are many Tandong residents here, and even Nong Liu Niang’s lieutenant is from Tandong.

Relying on the identity of these Tan family members and the wife of the cave owner, Tan Acai and her daughter quickly took control of the situation, and announced that Nong Liu Niang was seriously ill and would not see outsiders. Tan A Cai's own son Jiu Tingtai managed the army instead of Nong Liu Niang.

In fact, it was her half-sister Nong Dancui who was lying on the hospital bed pretending to be Nong Liu Niang.

Nong Liu Niang's ten brothers each have four different mothers.

Among them, Lao Liu, Lao Ba and Lao Jiu were all born to Qin Acai, and Nong Liu Niang had previously suspected that it was Lao Liu and Lao Ba who killed her father.

The eldest brother, the second and third eldest children are brothers and have a very good relationship. Although the eldest brother did not come forward in this matter, Nong Liu Niang can be sure that he was also involved.

Although Lao Si and Nong Liu Niang are from the same mother and are the closest to each other, he was seriously injured during the battle with Wang Hao, broke a leg and became disabled.

Lao Wu, Lao Qi, and Lao Ten were born to the same mother, but their biological mother did something wrong to the master of Lao Cave, which brought shame to the master of Lao Cave. Therefore, the three of them were also left out, although they were also the same. The leader of the cave, but his strength is far inferior to that of his other brothers.

Now the cave master died suddenly without leaving any last words. As for the position of the cave master, no one can say anything about it, but everyone knows in their hearts that whoever controls the army will be the new cave master.

After Tan Acai and his son took control of the army, they captured all Nong Liu Niang's cronies and locked them up to death. Mu Ling was just a maid, but she took the opportunity to escape.

After all, Nong Liu Niang was not an ordinary woman. She soon realized that something big must have happened outside. She bribed the guard and met with Mu Ling.

She learned about what was happening outside from Mu Ling's mouth, and knew that in this situation, she had no one she could trust, so she asked Mu Ling to ask the Han people for help, and the one she thought of was He Ran.

As for why he asked He Ran for help, the reason was simply because He Ran and she were both women.

Nong Liu Niang's ranking on the most powerful list in the world is partly due to her father and brother's contribution, but more of it comes from herself.

Now that her power has grown and her territory has expanded, her brothers have come to pick the fruits.

Whoever can control the army can make other caves surrender and become the new cave master.

And this person could be any one of the ten brothers, but it wouldn't be her.

After listening to Mu Ling's narration, He Ran still had some things that didn't make sense. She asked, "We've already arrested her, why did we keep the Sixth Lady alive?"

A strange smile appeared on Mu Ling's face: "Because Wang Hao doesn't dare to let the Sixth Lady die. If the Sixth Lady dies, he will die too."

He Ran was startled for a moment, then remembered something, and asked: "Gu?"

Mu Ling did not deny: "After the Sixth Lady discovered that Wang Hao was not a good man, she placed a poison on Wang Hao. Wang Hao did not dare to let the Sixth Lady die, and he also wanted the Sixth Lady to remove the poison for him.

This voodoo was left to Liu Niangzi by her mother-in-law. No one in the world can solve this voodoo except Liu Niangzi. "

He Ran was stunned. She had heard of Gu worms, but she always thought that the rumors were too exaggerated. She didn't expect that this actually happened.

Since the second and third children are colluding with Wang Hao, as long as Nong Liu Niang doesn't remove Wang Hao's poison for one day, she can live one more day.

As for punishment, there will be punishment, but it won't be life-threatening. Otherwise, if Nong Liu Niang is accidentally killed, Wang Hao will only die.

It was only then that Mu Ling finally took out a sign. It was hard to tell what kind of material it was made of. It was polished and had complicated patterns engraved on it.

"Master He Da, this is a token given to you by the Sixth Lady. She ordered her servant to hand this thing over to you." (End of Chapter)
