Li Yan looked at Shang Gong in his hand and found that his words were true. This person was really like Pang Sanniang in history, with superb makeup skills.
Her oily black hair is styled in a wild bun, and her face is half-covered with a gauze scarf, and her fair chin can be vaguely seen.
Coupled with the small-sleeved green shirt, half-sleeved cover, and waist skirt, walking on the street like this, if you passed by, you would think it was a young woman, but who would have thought that she was an old woman who is nearly seventy years old?
?
Of course, when this fashion palace is mentioned, its true colors begin to show.
The gauze blew up, and the powder on the face rustled down, exposing the ravine-like wrinkles. The fake bun on the head was also lifted halfway, revealing the gray hair. The most important thing is that the old and fearful look of misery
No one can be deceived by shouting.
Li Yan couldn't help but sigh: "You are really cautious. If it weren't for Yang Zaiwei as a pioneer, I really wouldn't be able to catch you!"
In fact, Li Yan's heart sank when he saw Shang Gong's men releasing the kites.
This old woman was more cautious than he expected. She even had one-way communication with her confidants. If she really watched Xiang Xiu die of pain and resisted not showing up, there was really nothing they could do.
Fortunately, the governor's office had a unique advantage, and Shang Gong couldn't let it go. A suspicious old woman appeared first, and Yang Zaiwei immediately jumped out. The two fought, one chasing and the other escaping. After escaping far away, Shang Gong really got close.
But she just glanced at the back door of Zheng Mansion a few times and hesitated a little when she was spotted by Li Yan, who took action decisively.
Two strong men who practiced consciousness-only power at that time paid close attention to the details and set up ambushes one after another, so that Shang Gong was not unjustly arrested.
Before it was over, Li Yan glanced sideways and faced the plum blossom guard who poked his head out of the back door of Zheng Mansion.
Facing that majestic gaze, Shang Gong's confidants turned pale in horror and blurted out two words: "Run!!"
As soon as the words were spoken, Li Yan had already swooped over.
One moment he was on the opposite street, and the next moment he was approaching Zheng Mansion.
He knows how to draw a full bow and shoot at Sirius. He is like an arrow shooting out of the string, and every time he dodges, he is more than ten meters away.
Even if he held Shang Gong and flashed several times in succession, he was already within the range of the chain knife.
However, among the breathing sounds that he heard, there were at least seven or eight people, and all of them were good martial arts masters. In the flash of light and flint, Li Yan directly threw Shang Gong in his hand without saying a word, and then held it in his hand.
On the handle of the knife.
"Save Lord Shang Gong!!"
Immediately, except for Rong Niang who cleverly went to the house and found a safe place to hide, the other plum blossom guards left Xiangxiu who fainted from pain and made the wrong choice as if on conditioned reflex.
After years of training, their fear of Shang Gong has been deeply rooted in their bones. Even if they know rationally that running away is the right thing to do, they still subconsciously choose to do so when they see the old woman spinning in mid-air and about to fall to the ground.
came to the rescue.
With this rescue, the last opportunity was missed.
Before Shang Gong could fall, Li Yan had already pounced on him, drawing out his chain knife.
The wind of the knife roared and surged out, not only scraping away several thin ox hair needles that flew out, but also flew away Shang Gong's henchman, who had the strongest martial arts skills.
When the person reached mid-air, he saw blood spurting out, then he hit the white wall outside Zheng's mansion, and then fell to the ground, unable to move.
This was after Li Yan slashed out with the back of his sword to save the opponent's life.
With the ultimate combination of strength and skill, one sword is enough to achieve great skill and clumsiness.
Li Yan struck out three more times, and three more people vomited blood and fell away. Seeing Shang Gong still spinning around on top, the remaining four people, in extreme fear, finally overcame Zhong Zhong and turned around to run away.
But at this time, Li Yan had already recovered his energy, and Shooting Heavenly Wolf came out again, pounced on it like lightning, and reached out to grab it.
The person who was the best at Qinggong felt a terrible chill on the back of his neck and did not dare to turn around. He huddled up and hugged his head. His whole body instantly curled up into a ball and rolled forward.
The response was very timely. The moment he curled up, he felt a pain in his cheek. His slender fingers passed by his face, and they were as sharp as a knife, bringing out a string of blood beads.
But this kind of response was still not enough to escape. Li Yan turned his five fingers and grabbed the clavicle and locked the joint.
Then he inserted it into the ground next to him and pushed it straight down. His feet were immediately dripping with blood and seeping into the soil.
"Ahh——"
The exclamations and screams were mixed together, and the pain quickly became insignificant. Shang Gong stood frozen like a wooden pole, unable to even move his head.
The thing that frightened her the most happened. After just a few breaths, the surrounding area became quiet.
This means...
Everyone was wiped out!
Li Yan reached out and caught Shang Gong who fell from the air. He looked at Shang Gong's confidants who were either lying down or standing upright vomiting blood. He nodded with satisfaction, but also worried about the burden of the inner prison: "It seems that the cells of the inner prison are
It’s time to expand a bit, the demand is growing day by day, and the workload of Shenji has also increased sharply!”
Shang Gong's eyes were about to burst and he made a hoarse and unpleasant voice: "Li Yuanfang!!"
From beginning to end, this old woman, who frightened those who knew her, was like a puppet, at the mercy of others.
This is the help brought by the opening of body consciousness. Although Li Yan does not have the muscles and bones that have been immersed in Yang Zaiwei for many years, it is absolutely no problem to paralyze a person's mobility in a short period of time.
Shang Gong couldn't even move a finger at this time. Seeing that all his men were wiped out, his eyes showed impotent rage.
Li Yan smiled: "I understand your resentment. You want these elite men to flee. Not only can you preserve your strength, but you will at least have some room for negotiation in the future.
"In the end, all of your people were caught in one fell swoop. The real ones were Daozu and I were the fish."
"It's a pity that you were too successful in brainwashing them in the past. All standards are based on you. Now you are reaping the consequences. How does it feel?"
Shang Gong's chest heaved, and under the extreme emotional stimulation, he tilted his head and fainted.
However, Li Yan noticed from the slight rhythm of breathing that the old woman had not fainted. He smiled coldly and slapped her down.
She groaned and was really knocked unconscious this time.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Li Yan carried her around and knocked out all the Shang Gong’s confidants to prevent them from committing suicide in advance. Then he looked into the palace and called:
"Rong Niang! I am Wan'er's master, you can come out now!"
Rong Niang came out and looked at him, tears filling her eyes. She looked at the person lying on the ground, feeling relieved but also a little unbelievable.
Li Yan looked at the plum blossom guard who was originally the daughter-in-law of the prime minister's house and a noble girl from a famous family, but now suffered a lot, and said gently: "Wan'er is in the palace, studying calligraphy with His Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess.
, and with the company of your mother, it will be complete."
Rong Niang nodded repeatedly, and tears of joy finally burst out: "I...I..."
Li Yan breathed a sigh of relief. It would be good if he could speak. If he was really silenced by Shang Gong's poison, it would be irreversible: "You should avoid it first, return to Chongyan's staff, and restore your identity."
When Rong Niang heard footsteps coming from behind, she immediately wiped her face and moved aside.
Soon the Zheng brothers and sisters came with a group of healthy servants. Seeing this bloody scene, they were shocked and relieved.
The previous murder case was completely revealed, and the nightmare of the Zheng Mansion was finally over. When Zheng Hui and Mrs. Zheng came forward to express their gratitude, Yang Zaiwei also returned from a distance carrying an old woman with an angry look on his face.
But when he saw Shang Gong in Li Yan's hand, he turned from anger to joy and asked from a distance: "Caught it?"
Li Yan nodded: "I caught it."
Yang Zaiwei rushed over impatiently: "Hurry and interrogate him, I want to know the truth about that year."
Li Yan was not impatient and asked: "Shang Gong has two sisters, one is loyal to the saint, and the other is helping your master. Can you tell which camp this Shang Gong belongs to now?"
Yang Zaiwei frowned, looked at the unconscious old woman carefully, shook his head and said, "No."
Li Yan said: "Then if you want to know the truth back then, I'm afraid you have to go through a lot of troubles. If it is Shang Gong who is loyal to the saint, he will definitely slander your master. If it is Shang Gong who helps your master, he may do his best to your master."
Beautification, have you considered this?"
Yang Zaiwei was stunned when he heard this, and his eyes couldn't help but become complicated: "Li Yuanfang, you must be hoping that Master and I will turn against each other and tell you all the secrets. Why are you doing this?"
Li Yan said seriously: "The secret of the kidnapping of the Hongnong Yang family that you want to trace is also of concern to me, because this matter is likely to be a link in the enemy's plan."
"As for your master's secret, if this person is sincere to you, I will not deliberately discredit him just to get you to speak. I still have this level of magnanimity."
"On the other hand, there is no need for me to smear it. After the truth of that year is found out, you should make a decision. All this is natural. Why rush for quick success?"
Yang Zaiwei stared at him deeply: "Not many people in the world can achieve the magnanimity you mentioned...Okay! I'll see how you find out the truth back then!"
At this time, the internal security forces had arrived. They had not dared to approach before, but now they were setting up a prison van and skillfully loading the prisoners inside one by one.
Yang Zaiwei suddenly said: "The couple who abducted Yang Youniang before are not inside. There should be another team under Shang Gong, I'm afraid it's those Ya Ren Ya Po. It won't be a matter of time to pry open the old woman's mouth.
We must not let Yaren escape!"
Li Yan nodded: "Hold my fish talisman and ask for the support of the imperial army to supervise the city gates. All those who leave the city will be strictly interrogated. We must block the Yaren organization in Luoyang and catch them all!"
…
In the deepest cell of the inner prison.
Shang Gong woke up slowly, trying to stay calm and silently gathering strength.
But she quickly gave up because she couldn't muster any strength, and a smell of medicine still wafted into her nose.
She sniffed gently, opened her eyes secretly through a slit, looked around, and found several doctors who looked like the Imperial Medical Office in front of her, brewing potions.
Shang Gong was slightly startled, unable to realize the purpose of their actions for a moment, when he saw Qiu Shenji's head suddenly poked his head over from the side, his big face covered the entire line of sight, and he smiled enthusiastically:
