    Yang Ziyi followed Li Yunshen on horseback for thirty miles, and finally stopped at an isolated mountain outside Jiming City.

    Li Yunshen never spoke during the whole journey, but his face was terrifyingly gloomy. At this moment, he finally reined in his horse, and Yang Ziyi dared to speak tentatively, "Boss, what happened? Why did you have to mobilize five hundred elite soldiers to rush here?"

    Although he didn¡¯t intend to pay attention to Chen Lin, he still had to ask clearly about this kind of thing, otherwise he wouldn¡¯t know anything and he had no idea. In the boss¡¯s current situation, he couldn¡¯t guarantee whether the person¡¯s mind was clear.

    "Someone poisoned Mr. Xie." Li Yunshen did not answer Yang Ziyi's previous words, but suddenly looked at the barren mountains in front of him and spoke to himself, "At first, I thought he was just frail and sick. I thought it would be better if I stayed with him longer.  , until last night he suddenly developed a high fever, and the doctor said it was poisoning. If it is not cured in time, his life may be in danger."

    Yang Ziyi was silent, thinking that it was indeed Mr. Xie who had an accident that made the boss crazy. Maybe even the boss himself did not realize how much he cared about Mr. Xie. For someone in a high position, what is the point of having such an obvious weakness?  A blessing or a curse?  This time Mr. Xie was poisoned, and the person who poisoned him must have noticed that the boss was unusually concerned about Mr. Xie.

    Yang Ziyi couldn't help but feel worried.

    "I almost turned the entire Jiming City upside down, but I couldn't find even a single thing. It's obviously not a precious medicinal material. Among the medicinal materials sent by the imperial court for relief, there were truckloads of stuff that came from the Jiming Mansion.  Half a stock.¡±

    Probably no one can understand that Li Yunshen has been in a state of panic these past few days. It is a long journey to take Xie Qingwu back to Xingyang.

    ¡ª¡ªThe Jiming Mansion was so clean that it was strangely clean. It was truly impoverished. There was nothing there except the refugees who were dying and waiting to die.

    This city is so barren that it is like an illusion that is not real.

    Then his people discovered this lonely mountain on the outskirts of the city.

    "What's weird here?" Yang Ziyi looked at it for a while, but didn't find anything special, so he hesitated.

    "You will know when you go in." Li Yunshen nodded, "There is a valley one mile ahead of the mountain. Leave a hundred people to guard the entrance of the valley. The remaining people will disperse and control the valley after entering. No one is allowed to enter or exit without my military order. If  Those who forcefully intrude will be shot without mercy."

    Yang Ziyi¡¯s brows twitched, but she said nothing.

    The boss was obviously too violent today. In the past, the boss rarely used the words "shoot to kill without mercy" even on the battlefield, but today he used it twice in a row.

    It wasn¡¯t until entering the valley that Yang Ziyi felt that the four words ¡°kill without mercy¡± were a bit accurate.

    ¡ª¡ªThis valley is the real golden cave, which collects the wealth of the entire Jiming City, and all the unkind and unjust natural disaster wealth is made.

    ¡ª¡ªThis is a granary, which is no different from a huge treasury in Jiming City where famine is rampant.  Those grains and herbs that the imperial court had accidentally lost were secretly robbed and hoarded here by Quannan, and then resold at high prices during the famine, making a huge fortune, while the penniless common people could only live in despair.  Waiting for death in the middle, which aroused public anger and eventually led to banditry.

    "I picked out the medicinal materials that Dr. Jiang said were needed, and some nourishing things, and quickly sent them back to the inn. The grain and grass on the mountain were also transported back to Jiming as soon as possible to open a warehouse for grain storage. The rest of the people were imprisoned and then tried again - Quannan  Woolen cloth?"

    "Let him run away. There is a secret passage behind the granary that leads directly to the mountainside. When I chased him in, there was no one left." Yang Ziyi hesitated for a moment, "Looking at the direction, he should be running towards Xingyang."

    "Pursue." Li Yunshen's eyes were cold. "Catch up and save your life. You dare to intercept and kill the imperial officials to intercept the food and grass for disaster relief. Quannan is not so courageous. There must be someone behind him."

    The moon was dark and the wind was high, and the birds in the mountains suddenly flew away. The horse that had been galloping all day and night finally stopped due to fatigue. The people on the horse were exhausted and trembling like frightened birds. Even the hands holding the reins were trembling.

    This is a post station set up by His Highness in the mountains. The money gained from reselling grain and grass in Jiming and border news were spread to the capital from here. If he had not been desperate at this time, he would never have come here.

    There is only one of His Highness¡¯s confidants named Qi who has been stationed at the inn for a long time. It should be safe if the mountains are hidden here. His Highness will arrange for him to change his name and escape from Qingzhou and start over

    Quan Nan trembled and got off his horse. After thinking like this, he finally felt that there was some hope, and stumbled into the depths of the mountain forest: "Mr. Qi, Qi?"

    There were no lights in the inn,A figure was reflected in the dark shadow. It was a tall man. The moment he heard the sound of horse hooves, his right hand moved to his waist. When Quan Nan stumbled in, the man's sword was not unsheathed.  He rubbed his waist slowly, and his voice was mellow but not clear: "Master Quan?"

    With a sigh of insight.

    "Chen, Chen, why are you here?" A layer of cold sweat instantly fell on Quan Nan's forehead. He had good eyesight and could clearly see the man's hand on his waist slowly tightening the handle of the knife.

    "Isn't it a good thing to delay Mr. Quan? Your Highness came here in person. If the granary is exposed, this inn can't be saved. His Highness is afraid that King Cheng will find out something more, so he specially ordered me to come and finish it off. By the way, he's waiting for Mr. Quan."

    The knife came out half an inch, and killing intent suddenly arose.

    "No, no, I have worked hard for His Highness in Jiming for many years. How could Your Highness - Where is Your Highness? I, I want to see Your Highness in person!" Quannan's whole body was shaking like a sieve, and he asked unwillingly, trembling.  Shivering, he stepped back.

    "Your Highness has been ruining his business in Qingzhou for several years. He just wants me to pass on a message to you, sir."

    "What, what are you talking about?"

    "If you don't succeed enough, if you fail too much, you won't regret dying." Before he finished speaking, the light of the sword had already lit up. The man's sword was fast and accurate. Quan Nan was retreating to the door. His leg hit the threshold and he couldn't help but stumble. However, the sword behind him  Before he had any chance to breathe, he was already chasing after him, entering from his waist and abdomen, piercing through his chest and lungs, and then coming out with blood. He fell to the ground in an instant, with blood flowing everywhere, and it seemed that he would not survive.

    The man was very cautious. He raised the knife and was about to aim it at the heart and make another stab when the sound of horse hooves suddenly came from the forest: "Boss, there seems to be someone in front of you!"

    Yang Ziyi¡¯s broken voice can be heard clearly even from half a mountain away.

    The man's hand holding the knife paused, and he heard the sound of horse hooves approaching in his ears. Without further hesitation, he turned around and kicked down the kerosene that had been prepared. He threw the kettle into the door that was stained with kerosene and immediately withdrew.  .

    Before leaving, I looked back uneasy and saw that Quan Nan¡¯s body was still lying on the spot, motionless, and his lower legs had been licked by the tongues of flames that were raging crazily.

    And the sound of horse hoofbeats in his ears was getting closer and closer. Yang Ziyi's broken gong voice roared loudly for fear that others would not hear. The man paused, and something suddenly flashed in his mind at the last moment of leaving.

    ¡ª¡ªWhen he left, the body was obviously lying on the threshold!  But when I turned around just now, the body was outside the threshold!

    ¡ª¡ªQuannan is not dead!

    But is it too late to turn back now?  King Cheng has already arrived, and if he goes back at this time, it will be like throwing himself into a trap, but Quannan knows too much and cannot stay!

    When Li Yunshen arrived, the inn hidden deep in the mountains had been burned into a sea of ??flames. Quannan's horses were still tied in the woods outside the inn, but the air was already filled with the smell of burning.

    If Quannan wanted to burn himself to protect his master, he would not have risked his life and escaped for a day and a night. The only possibility is that he thought he would be saved if he escaped here, but in fact, his master was already ready to kill and silence him.  .

    A knife is also needed to kill someone and silence them. The fire has just started and the murderer should not have run far away. At this time, it should be too late to seal the mountain and arrest the person. It¡¯s just that he was in a hurry and he didn¡¯t have enough manpower, etc.¡ª¡ª

    what is that?

    Li Yunshen suddenly opened his eyes wide. A blurry figure in the grass not far away was crawling forward with difficulty. His legs were still burning with fire, and he made a whimpering sound in his throat: "Help, help me, help me.  " (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
