Three days ago, since Guo Yixiu sent back the news that something had happened to Yang Wuliang, Ling Yun had been feeling uneasy for three days in a row. He didn't know if it was his misunderstanding, but he always felt that something was going to happen.
It was night, because he was tossing and turning and had no intention of sleeping. Lingyun was sitting in the study room, looking a little tired. However, he couldn't help but ask Yang Sanniu if Guo Yixiu had returned.
"Master, not yet."
Yang Sanniu shook his head, and his answer was obviously a bit heavy.
It can be seen from this that not only Ling Yun is worried, but even Yang Sanniu also has a worried look on his face.
After a moment of silence, he raised his head and looked at Ling Yun, "Master, that boy Yi Xiu hasn't come back for three consecutive days. Do you think something happened to him...?"
As soon as these words came out, Ling Yun visibly paused and his hands shook slightly.
"No. Yi Xiu has always been cautious and prudent in his work, and nothing will happen to him. If he hasn't come back these days, it's probably because he was delayed by something and couldn't leave for a while. It's absolutely impossible for anything to happen..."
Although his tone of voice was full of confidence, there was a trace of panic in his eyes, which proved that Ling Yun was actually not sure whether Guo Yixiu was really fine.
Having said that, in the past, Guo Yixiu would not disappear for more than three days when he went out to do business, but this time he disappeared for three days in a row. Yang Sanniu couldn't help but feel uneasy and worried that something might happen to him.
Just when the two of them were frowning, there was a slight sound on the roof.
"Who? Who's up there?"
The two men suddenly raised their heads, their eyes like torches, staring at the direction where the sound came from.
Two or three breaths passed, but no one responded.
"Master, you...come to me."
Yang Sanniu looked wary, staring at the roof while leaning in front of Ling Yun, not forgetting to signal Ling Yun to lean behind him. It seemed that only in this way could he ensure Ling Yun's safety.
Suddenly there was a "swish" sound, and the door in front was opened. At this moment, a dark figure wearing black night clothes flashed in, and he closed the door very politely with his backhand.
With a "bang" sound, Yang Sanniu reacted immediately, then blocked the front, staring at the black figure at the door, and asked with a wary look, "Who are you?"
The man in black lowered the cloth on his face and whispered, "Master Yun, Sanniu, it's me, Yixiu!"
Yang Sanniu's eyes widened, and he was extremely surprised. He never thought that the person who came was Guo Yixiu, which made him think that an assassin had broken in. Fortunately, he didn't shout assassin, otherwise, it would not have ended well.
Yang Sanniu stepped forward, pointed at Guo Yixiu and cursed, "Guo Yixiu? You...you boy, you said you, you will come back when you come back, why are you acting like an assassin? I was shocked."
Guo Yixiu also knew that he was in the wrong and did not refute. He just smiled and explained, "Hehe! This... this is not a rush back. I happened to forget to change clothes."
Ling Yun breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was a false alarm. He thought that he could not be so unlucky, encountering assassins all the time, not to mention that this was still in the government office.
If you think about it carefully, if the assassin dares to enter the government office to assassinate, it can be said that this is a blatant provocation to the imperial court and will definitely attract the wrath of the imperial court. Even Yang Buwei does not have the courage.
Ling Yun looked at it for a while and guessed, "Yi Xiu, your kid came back in such a hurry, but is there any good news?"
"Huh!"
Guo Yixiu was slightly surprised.
"Master Yun, did you guess it?"
Yang Sanniu first looked at Ling Yun, then looked at Guo Yixiu, and exclaimed, "Yeah! Yixiu, is it true that as the young master said, there is really good news when you come back this time?"
"Hey! It's true."
Hearing this, Yang Sanniu seemed very excited and kept asking, "Tell me, tell me, what is the good news? Is it evidence that Yang Buwei or Yang Zhengde did bad things?"
Already?"
"Well~ you can say that,"
Guo Yixiu thought for a moment, and then spoke. He did not explain directly, but instead pretended to do it on purpose, as if he did it deliberately.
Yang Sanniu panted, raised his fists, and said angrily, "Boy, are your fists itchy? You want to compete with me, but you are beating around the bush in front of me, pretending to be mysterious."
Yang Sanniu's idea is very simple. If you have something to say, why bother with so much trouble?
Of course, the competition he just mentioned was not really a competition, it was just that he was a little angry and Guo Yixiu was showing off in front of him.
Hearing the good news, Ling Yun looked calm and calm on the surface, but in his heart he was just like Yang Sanniu, even worse. At this moment, he urgently wanted to know what the good news Guo Yixiu said was.
.
However, for the sake of his majesty, he did not show it on the surface.
"Yi Xiu, stop being so pretentious. If you have any questions, just tell me!"
These words seemed careless and disapproving, but they were full of Ling Yun's expectations.
Guo Yixiu put away the playfulness on his face, coughed twice, and said with a serious face, "Master Yun, I had a reply earlier. Regarding the disappearance of Yang Wuliang, I thought something had happened, but tonight, a few of us suddenly
After tracking his traces, it turned out that Yang Wuliang was not missing, but was arrested by Yang Buwei. The most incredible thing is that they want to kill him tonight under the cover of darkness."
"What?"
Ling Yun stood up suddenly, with a look of shock on his face.
"You mean, Yang Wuliang was controlled by people sent by Yang Buwei, and his mouth was also silenced?"
"Master Yun, thanks to our tracking these days, we were able to find their traces... When they committed the murder, we took the opportunity to save them."
After hearing that Yang Wuliang had been rescued, Ling Yun breathed a sigh of relief and turned to concern, "Are there any casualties among our people?"
It is indeed a good thing to save people, but the prerequisite is that no one is killed.
"Master, there were no casualties, because they did not kill him directly, but tied up Yang Wuliang... We only went into the water to rescue him after they left."
Guo Yixiu recounted what he had personally experienced tonight.
Ling Yun grasped the key point and confirmed directly, "So, Yang Wuliang was not only cleverly saved by you, but the most important thing is that they didn't find out?"
"Master Yun, don't worry. During the rescue process and before they left, we didn't make any mistakes."
"Okay, okay, good boy, as expected of you..."
Ling Yun slapped Guo Yixiu heavily on the shoulder and praised him without hesitation.
After the joy, Guo Yixiu asked, "Master Yun, are you going to take a look now?"
Ling Yun lowered his head, thought for a long time, and said solemnly, "No, we can't go now."
"Why is this?"
"The movements at night are too obvious. If someone notices it and spreads it to Yang Buwei's ears, the gain outweighs the loss!"
