    ? 1In the deep and messy alleys of Nancheng, Xiao Yechi hid in a scrap pile and watched helplessly as the last two men ran out to lead away the pursuing officers and soldiers, closing his eyes in annoyance.

    Prince Ping¡¯s Mansion.

    Daohua had dinner with Prince Ping, and then returned to Pingxi Hall.

    Xiao Yeyang came back the next day when he was polishing it. As soon as he came back, Daohua woke up: "Why are you so busy now? Has anyone been caught?"

    Xiao Yeyang shook his head, took the handkerchief handed over by Wang Maner and wiped his face: "Xiao Yechi is still on the run."

    Daohua looked surprised: "So many people didn't catch him?"

    Xiao Yeyang changed his clothes and lay on the bed: "Don't underestimate Xiao Yechi. He was taught by the Eighth Prince himself, and the Eighth Prince is Uncle Huang's number one confidant and has many tricks."

    Daohua nodded: "Xiao Yechi was able to escape even after being poisoned by dumb medicine and Ruanjing powder. It's indeed quite powerful." After saying that, he paused and said, "By the way, how did Luo Qiong die?"

    Xiao Yeyang was silent for a moment: "Xiao Yechen used it as a shield and was hit by an arrow and died."

    Daohua: "Xiao Yechi didn't care about her?"

    Xiao Yeyang sneered: "Xiao Yechi was busy running away, how could he care about Luo Qiong? Not only did he not care, he also pushed Luo Qiong and Xiao Yechen out to attract everyone's attention, so as to give him a chance to escape.  "

    Hearing this, Daohua¡¯s face showed a sigh of relief.

    Luo Qiong is really a trustworthy person. Her husband uses her as a shield, and her lover just abandons her when he is in danger.

    Seeing the tiredness on Xiao Yeyang's face, Daohua didn't ask any more questions and pulled the thin blanket over his chest. After he fell asleep, she quietly got out of bed.

    On the other side, after a night of internal stimulation, Xiao Yechi was finally able to move around freely. He immediately climbed over the wall of the side courtyard, changed into short brown clothes, put on a straw hat, and went onto the street.

    There was nothing strange on the street, except that there were more officers and soldiers patrolling. Xiao Yechi carefully hid in the crowd and walked quickly towards the city gate.

    The city gate is open, but unfortunately, you can only go in but not go out.

    Looking at the heavily guarded city gate, Xiao Yechi's heart sank. After pondering for a while, he turned around and walked towards the inner city.

    ?¡­

    At noon, Xiao Yeyang woke up from his sleep. When he came out of the inner room, he saw Daohua squatting in the yard feeding the hunting dogs.

    Of the seven hunting dogs raised by Daohua, Xiao Yeyang, Yan Wentao, and Yan Wenkai each wanted one. She brought two of the remaining four to the palace when she got married, and the remaining two stayed at Yan's house to look after the home.

    "you're awake!"

    Seeing Xiao Yeyang, Daohua handed the dog food in her hand to Bishi and entered the house with a smile.

    Xiao Yeyang knows Daohua very well. When he saw her bringing out the hunting dog, he knew what she wanted to do: "You want me to take the hunting dog to capture Xiao Yechi?"

    Daohua nodded: "Xiao Yechi should still have the scent of medicine on his body. When you go out, take the waiter with you. Maybe it can help you."

    After saying that, she pulled him to sit at the dinner table.

    Xiao Yeyang had no objection. Gou Xiaoyi was borrowed by the commander for errands some time ago and it has not been returned to him yet. It seems that he will have to find time to get it in person.

    After lunch, Xiao Yeyang took the dog Xiaoer out.

    A dog¡¯s nose is always smarter than a human¡¯s. That afternoon, he took Xiao Yeyang and others to find the place where Xiao Yechi hid last night.

    At the same time, in the backyard of a medicine shop in the inner city, the old man in charge of preparing medicinal materials sneaked into the utility room with a bowl of freshly brewed medicine.

    "Master, after drinking this medicine you can speak."

    Xiao Yechi looked at the medicine in the old man's hand and did not take it immediately.

    Although this person is also Wan Wei, he doesn¡¯t trust him very much since we haven¡¯t contacted him for many years.

    When the old man saw it, he quickly took a sip and then handed it to Xiao Yechi again.

    Xiao Yechi took the medicine and drank it in one gulp. Not long after, he felt his throat started to feel itchy. He tried to make a sound and found that he could indeed speak.

    "What's going on outside?"

    Xiao Yechi asked in a hoarse voice.

    Old man: "Jin Lingwei is leading officers and soldiers to conduct population checks from house to house. Anyone who has no household registration and cannot tell where they are from will be arrested and thrown into prison."

    Hearing this, Xiao Yechi's expression became more and more gloomy. After being silent for a while, he stood up and said, "Continue to do your thing, just pretend I've never been here."

    The old man nodded, and when Xiao Yechi left, he breathed a sigh of relief.

    He is Wan Wei, and he also knows his mission, butAfter years of peaceful life, he really didn't want to get involved in power struggles anymore.

    "It's a pity that God just likes to joke with people. The more you don't want things to happen, they just happen.

    The moment he saw Jin Lingwei rushing into the medicine shop, the old man lowered his head feebly.

    After all, I still haven¡¯t escaped!

    Xiao Yechi did not go far, and ate noodles at a noodle stall not far away. The reason why he left the medicine shop was that he did not trust the old man, and he felt that the medicine shop was not safe. But he did not expect that the people from Jin Lingwei  It will come so fast.

    Not daring to delay any longer, Xiao Yechi put down a few pennies, got up and left.

    ?¡­

    Chengen Gongfu.

    Duke Chengen and Prince Jiang, who were idle at home, were talking about Xiao Yechi and Duke Wei's mansion in the study. Suddenly, there was a sound of heavy objects falling to the ground outside the house.

    Prince Jiang quickly stood up, opened the window and looked outside, and saw a secret guard lying on the ground with a grin on his face. He frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"

    The secret guard quickly stood up and replied: "Come back to the Master, a dead bird suddenly fell from the tree. One of my subordinates didn't pay attention and slipped."

    Prince Jiang showed displeasure, but he didn't say much. He just told him: "The city is not stable during this period, so you must cheer up."

    "yes!"

    After the secret guards hid themselves again, Prince Jiang closed the window.  However, at this moment, a figure flashed past, and then, a sharp dagger was pressed against his neck.

    The moment Duke Chengen saw Xiao Yechi, he stood up eagerly.

    Seeing that he was about to call someone, Xiao Yechi pressed the dagger in his hand hard. Immediately, a blood mark was left on Prince Jiang's neck: "Mr. Cheng'en, please be patient! You don't want to have to send your grandson away just now.  Send your son away."

    Duke Chengen was angry and worried, and looked at Xiao Yechi fiercely: "What do you want to do?"

    Xiao Yechi curled up his lips and said, "I come to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing. I'm here because I want to cooperate with you."

    Duke Chengen sneered: "I don't think there is anything we can cooperate with."

    Xiao Yechi smiled and shook his head: "Mr. Cheng'en, why do you need to speak so absolutely? It's not like your Jiang family has never cooperated with us before."

    Seeing the blood flowing from Prince Jiang's neck, Duke Chengen gritted his teeth and asked, "How do you want to cooperate?"

    Xiao Yechi smiled and said: "My cooperation is very simple. Send me out of the city."

    Duke Cheng'en refused directly: "This old man can't do it. Now the city gate is guarded by Jin Ling Guards and Imperial Guards. Unless the Emperor gives the order, no one can get out."

    Xiao Yechi: "Don't say no in a hurry. You haven't listened to me yet. What are the benefits I gave you? The treasure left by Grandpa Huang, plus a gold medal to avoid death."

    Hearing this, Duke Cheng'en's face froze, and even Prince Jiang, who was still in danger, couldn't help but show emotion on his face.

    Xiao Yechi saw that both father and son were moved, and then said: "Now I know a little bit about the relationship between the Jiang family and the emperor. The gold medal for immunity from death may be of great use to you."

    Prince Jiang: "The gold medal for immunity from death was given to the Eight Kings by the late Emperor. If you gave it to us, wouldn't it make us admit that our Jiang family is also a party of the Eight Kings?"

    Xiao Yechi laughed: "Prince Jiang, it seems you still know too little. When the Xia Dynasty was established, Emperor Gaozu created a total of three identical gold medals for immunity from death. My father got one. Where did the other two go?  No one knows about it so far. If you don¡¯t say that I gave you the death-free gold medal in your hands, who would know the source?¡±

    "As for the treasure left by Grandpa Huang"

    Xiao Yechi looked at Duke Cheng'en with a smile: "You are a veteran of three dynasties. You should know the situation of the previous dynasty's treasury. In order to leave enough wealth for my father, Grandpa Huang almost emptied the treasury."

    Hearing these words, Prince Jiang was completely moved.

    What they have to do now will cost a lot of money.

    Duke Chengen looked at Xiao Yechi coldly: "Even if there are more, you will probably move them all."

    Xiao Yechi shook his head and said regretfully: "In order to avoid being discovered, I didn't dare to make any big moves when I returned to Beijing this time. So far, I have only moved half of the gold and silver jewelry."

    "Mr. Cheng'en, as long as you send me safely out of the city, the remaining half of the treasure and the death-free gold medal will all be yours."

    Duke Chengen squinted his eyes and stared at Xiao Yechi: "Are you so willing to give up?"

    Xiao Yechi shrugged: "So what if I can't bear to leave? Since the emperor already knows my whereabouts, he will definitely kill me. I can no longer stay in the capital." (Remember this website's website address: www.hlnovel.com
