Chapter 112 Conspiracy and persecution
  But suddenly, one of the leading soldiers suddenly noticed the sound of footsteps coming from the front. When he looked carefully, he saw that it was a human figure.

This startled him, and he shouted quickly: "Who is in front of you? How dare you break into Niubei Village!!"

The other soldiers immediately drew out their swords and took a stance, blocking the only way to enter Niubei Village.

In the darkness, Cui Mingchong opened his arms, walked forward, and said with a smile: "I am Cui Mingchong, the imperial envoy sent by the imperial court. I led the governor of Yucheng to inspect during the day! Please go and inform Lin Yun to come out and see me!" "

Cui Mingchong deliberately spoke loudly to attract the attention of these guards.

But in fact, these are not guards, but private troops trained by Lin Yun. Their combat effectiveness is definitely higher than that of ordinary guards.

The six soldiers were all shocked. They did not expect that the person coming was an imperial envoy.

When they had dinner together this evening, they had discussed what happened during the day, so naturally they were very familiar with this imperial envoy.

The leading soldier came forward with a lantern and illuminated Cui Mingchong's face. After confirming, he immediately bowed and said, "I have seen the imperial envoy!"

"Okay, no need to be polite! I'll tell Lin Yun to come out as soon as possible! Just say that I have something to do with him!"

The leading soldier winked at the men on the side, and the men turned and left.

They were extremely vigilant. Although Cui Mingchong was the only one in front of them, they were still extra cautious and kept observing the surrounding situation for fear that there might be an ambush around them.

Cui Mingchong had a panoramic view of their every move, showed approval, and said: "I really didn't realize that the small Niubei Village could actually cultivate such loyal guards. Mr. Lin is really extraordinary!"

He said this just to hide the truth from others, for fear that the men he sent would be discovered.

However, the Ouchi guards are not ordinary people. Even if they don't talk about flying over the walls, they are not something ordinary people can find.

On the other side, Lin Yun had packed up everything and had just returned to Lin Wuyue's bedroom to rest when there was a rapid knock on the door.

Lin Yun looked unhappy, stood in the yard and shouted, wearing a white plain suit, "Who is it?"

"Mr. Lin, please come out quickly. The imperial envoy is here during the day!!"

The soldier was not qualified to talk to Lin Yun before, so this time he was anxious and just knocked on Zheng Li's door. Before he could open the door, he immediately came to inform Lin Yun.

When Lin Yun heard that it was the Imperial Envoy, he was immediately shocked.

Lin Wuyue also had a curious look on her face. She put on a coat and asked, "Ms. sir, it's so late, who is it?"

Lin Yun looked solemn and said: "Go and wake up Oona quickly and ask her to keep an eye on the entire village, especially the several granaries where we store food and the gunpowder warehouse. Don't let strangers approach you!"

Lin Wuyue also realized that something was wrong and nodded quickly without daring to ask further.

But before Lin Yun finished speaking, Oona opened the door and walked out. She actually changed into a smart outfit and curled her lips and said, "No need to call me, I'm not deaf!"

Lin Yun's eyes lit up and he said: "Oona, go quickly! Keep an eye on a few key places! Don't let anyone get close! Remember, if someone does get close, don't hurt him, just capture him alive. Wait for my order!"

Oona nodded in agreement. She was originally from the military. Although she was no longer in the military camp, she still had the minimum military qualities. Without saying a word, she jumped and disappeared into the night.

Lin Wuyue and Lin Yun were secretly speechless.

"This girl is indeed quite capable!"

Lin Yun praised him, put on his clothes and rushed out the door.

At this time, Ye Wanqing walked out of the door and happened to see Lin Yun's leaving back, and asked: "Sister Wuyue, what happened?"

"It's not clear yet, but I heard from the night patrol officers that the imperial envoy came during the day!"

"What? Why are you here so late?"

Ye Wanqing looked surprised, but Lin Wuyue just shook his head silently.

Here, Lin Yun strode to the entrance of the village and saw Zheng Youli leading five soldiers, followed by Cui Mingchong. As the supreme commander of Niubei Village's private army, Zheng Li would naturally be the first to arrive when an incident occurred.

Zheng Li said respectfully: "Young Master, this is the Imperial Envoy!"

Lin Yun nodded expressionlessly and whispered: "Send someone immediately and quietly seal off the entire village. No one is allowed in or out!"

"I humbly obey my orders!"

Lin Yun then put on a smiling face, took the initiative to greet him, and said, "It turns out to be Mr. Cui! It's so late, why did you suddenly come to Niubei Village again? You didn't say anything in advance, so that the common people could take care of themselves. Prepare!"

Cui Mingchong smiled jokingly and said, "What are Mr. Lin preparing? Is he trying to hide some secret?"

Lin Yun was stunned and laughed dryly: "Master Cui is joking! Niubei Village is just an ordinary mountain village, so what secrets are there!"

"Ha ha!"

Cui Mingchong raised his head and laughed, saying: "Okay! I was just joking, Mr. Lin, there is no need to be angry!"

Lin Yun just smiled apologetically, but felt cursed in his heart.

This old guy is really plotting if he can't do it.

Coming in the middle of the night, there must be bad intentions.

However, when soldiers come to block water and earth, Lin Yun doesn't like trouble, but he is never afraid of trouble.

"Sir Cui is an imperial envoy sent by the imperial court, and the common people are just the lords of Niubei Village. No matter what happens to you, the common people don't dare to be angry!"

"Hey, don't say more! I'm a little tired and want to take a rest. Mr. Lin won't refuse, right?"

Cui Mingchong's remarks were obviously a deliberate delay.

Lin Yun naturally realized it, but he did not dare to fall out, and he would never fall out.

Although he was already cursing in his heart, he could only smile on his face and said sideways: "Master Cui invites you!"

After that, Cui Mingchong regarded himself as an outsider at all and walked into Niubei Village in a swagger.

Along the way, he was observing the surrounding village houses.

But none of the villagers in the house came out to watch the fun.

This made Cui Mingchong even more impressed.

As an imperial envoy, he made a tour when he came here. He had stayed in some prestigious villages and visited some larger cities. Whenever ordinary people saw him, they would either look curious or panicked.

But only Niubei Village gave him a different feeling.

Lin Yun remained silent. He stared at Cui Mingchong's back, wondering what kind of medicine this old guy was selling in his gourd.

Soon, a group of soldiers escorted Lin Yun and Cui Mingchong to the mansion. They were like guards, guarding all entrances and exits, even the windows.

Cui Mingchong saw it and smiled coldly.

He could naturally tell what these people were guarding against.

But what surprised him even more was that he did not explain his purpose when he arrived, but the guards in Niubei Village seemed to know something and had begun to guard them tightly.

But it's also possible that she was guarding against him and didn't want him to leave easily.

This made Cui Mingchong's heart skip a beat.

If he really pisses off Lin Yun, will he do something dangerous?
