Even though my mind is full of doubts, I still have to leave.
It's late at night and it's not safe to stay here for a long time, let alone break into the house.
However, at this moment, the door to the residence where Zheng Guanyin was imprisoned opened again, and a group of men in black filed out.
In just a moment, the man in black surrounded Fang Yuan and others, making Qingyao and Xue Jiaoyan jump in fright, and they approached Xue Bowu again and again.
"Fang Yuan?!"
Bishamon military advisor walked out.
After seeing it was Fang Yuan, he was obviously a little shocked.
After seeing Fang Jingyu in Fang Yuan's arms, he was stunned.
"If they take action later, Qinggao and Jiaoyan will be responsible for screaming loudly."
Fang Yuan did not immediately pay attention to Bishamon's military advisor, but made a decision first.
It's the dead of night, and any movement may attract the attention of the patrolling guards.
Moreover, this is Changlefang, which is not far from the Imperial City. It may also attract the patrolling Jinwu Guards, or it may attract the attention of powerful people living nearby.
Although it's not safe here, Bishamon's military advisor should also be wary.
"Okay, okay."
Qinggao and Xue Jiaoyan nodded repeatedly.
It was so late at night and surrounded by so many people in black, and they were very scared.
Xue Bowu looked very calm, standing next to Fang Yuan and saying nothing during the whole process.
"Interesting, so calm that it's scary."
"I believe it was no coincidence that you broke my game last night."
Bishamon Military Advisor chuckled.
His voice is still very strange, and I can't tell whether he is male or female.
And because he was wearing night clothes, Fang Yuan couldn't tell whether he was a boy or a girl.
It is rare to keep secrets as well as he does. No wonder the court does not have any information about him.
"Then will you let me go or risk being discovered?"
Fang Yuan stared at the Bishamon military advisor and said in a deep voice.
"Of course I let you go."
"Please."
Bishamon Military Advisor thought for a moment and then said.
As soon as he finished speaking, the men in black surrounding Fang Yuan spread out on both sides to make room.
Qingyao and Xue Jiaoyan wanted to leave immediately, but still looked at Fang Yuan to confirm what Fang Yuan meant.
"Bo Wu, you leave first."
"Don't go back to Fang Mansion, just go to the county government office with my warrant and send someone over."
"If you encounter patrolling Jinwu guards on the road, please invite them over."
Fang Yuan looked deeply at Bishamon's military advisor and said in a deep voice.
After thinking about it, Fang Yuan felt that it was very dangerous to leave like this, as he would inevitably be intercepted and killed by Bishamon's military advisor.
After all, going back this way will leave this aristocratic area, and there are also relatively remote places, where it will be difficult to attract others' attention.
Therefore, it is best to let Xue Bowu, who is highly skilled in martial arts, leave first. He will not worry about being intercepted or killed all the way back. He can easily be transferred from the county government to the on-duty government officials.
"Okay, okay."
Xue Bowu was a little stunned.
She glanced at her sister worriedly.
"Go quickly."
Xue Jiaoyan seemed to understand Fang Yuan's thoughts.
When she saw Xue Bowu looking at her, she kicked Xue Bowu hard.
Xue Bowu then left and quickly disappeared into the blackness, with only the sound of his running heard.
"Fang Yuan, you are so cautious, you are safe."
Bishamon Military Advisor looked at the direction Xue Bowu left for a long time before looking back.
It can be heard from the sound of Xue Bowu's sprinting footsteps that this is not something that ordinary people can catch up with.
"Caution makes the Wannian Ship have to be cautious when facing you."
Fang Yuan is still wary of Bishamon's military advisor.
You have to be careful, there are too many people on the other side.
The only thing that can scare the other party is to attract the attention of the powerful people around you.
"I really want to take the risk and kill you too."
"But I am worried that someone will disturb the peace of the owner of this mansion."
"How about you agree to a condition and I retreat now?"
Bishamon Military Advisor said with deep regret in his words.
"You said."
Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.
As expected, the other party was very cautious.
"I'll let you go once today, but you won't be able to bring anyone to disturb the peace here..."
"You also understand that I won't be able to come here again after today, and you won't be able to find anything if you come and search."
Bishamon Military Advisor said in a deep voice.
"Okay, but I also have a condition!"
Fang Yuan thought for a while and said in a deep voice.
"You still dare to give your opinion?"
"Then tell me."
Bishamon's military advisor was laughed out of anger.
I dare say I have no deterrent effect on him.
Or perhaps he is determined that he does not dare to take the risk of killing him.
"After today, all grudges between me and Bishamon will be cleared, and you will not be able to target me again!"
Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.
The more you know about Bishamon, the more you know how powerful it is.
This force may also be related to the Duke, the former prince, etc., and involves imperial power.
And it's still in the dark. Fang Yuan doesn't want to have too many entanglements with them, nor does he want to stab them secretly.
"You are really going too far. You dare to raise such conditions!"
Bishamon Military Advisor said coldly.
"You can do it though."
"Let's see if you kill us first, or if we attract the attention of the powerful people around you first."
Fang Yuan said coldly.
He was betting that Bishamon's military advisor would not dare.
The other party is very concerned about Zheng Guanyin who is imprisoned in this mansion, and does not want anyone to come and disturb him.
And if he takes action now, while he and others are fighting back and shouting, it is very likely that he will attract the attention of the powerful people around him.
Maybe he can kill Fang Yuan and others, but there is no doubt that others will know about it, and he may not have time to clear the body etc.
When the case is finally investigated, people will still know about this place, and Zheng Guanyin will also be found.
After all, Zheng Guanyin is Prince Yin's concubine, and she is probably being watched because of Bishamon.
"You're cruel!"
"But the previous grudges have been wiped out. If we collide in the future, the grudges will continue!"
Bishamon Military Advisor took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.
"Deal!"
Fang Yuan smiled.
He guessed right, the other party really cared about Zheng Guanyin.
I just don’t know what role Zheng Guanyin plays in Bishamon.
"Let's go!"
Bishamon Military Advisor said coldly.
After saying that, he turned around and left without any hesitation.
The men in black who surrounded Fang Yuan also left one after another and disappeared into the night.
When Fang Yuan saw this, his tense heart finally relaxed.
"Fang, Fang Yuan, are we safe?"
Xue Jiaoyan asked nervously.
Qingyao also looked at Fang Yuan nervously.
"It's safe."
Fang Yuan was not sure.
Not sure how Bishamon's military advisor is alone.
He is currently retreating, and it is unclear whether he is hiding in the darkness.
"Then let's go back?!"
Xue Jiaoyan thought it was really safe and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Wait for Bowu to come."
Fang Yuan put Fang Jingyu on the ground and stretched.
He was not sure whether Bishamon's military advisor would hide in the darkness and attack.
So the safest way is to wait here until Xue Bowu and his people arrive.
"Okay."
"This guy sleeps so soundly."
Xue Jiaoyan pouted and sat next to Fang Jingyu.
Looking at Fang Jingyu's appearance, she couldn't help but complain a little.
It was all this girl's fault, but she didn't know it at all and still slept so soundly.
Qinggao also felt very tired, so she followed her colleague and sat next to Fang Jingyu, beating her sore legs with her little hands.
Fang Yuan stared at the sleeping Fang Jingyu, frowning slightly, curious about Fang Jingyu's identity?
I still remember that when she first arrived in Chang'an City, she held his hand and said she was afraid.
Now I am sleepwalking here...
After about a stick of incense, Xue Bowu left and returned, bringing Zheng Jiu and other yamen servants with him.
There is someone on duty at the county government office every night, and some of the government officials live in the county government office.
This time, nearly 80 people were dispatched, and they rushed in in a mighty manner, attracting the attention of some people. The doors of several dignitaries opened slightly to see what happened.
"Sister, Fang Yuan, are you okay?"
Xue Bowu's forehead was covered with sweat and he looked at Xue Jiaoyan and Fang Yuan worriedly.
When he saw Xue Jiaoyan and Qingyu sitting on the ground, he thought something had happened.
He felt relieved until he saw Xue Jiaoyan and Qingwei standing up and nothing happened.
"Fang Ling, please give me your orders!"
Zheng Jiu walked straight to Fang Yuan and saluted.
He looked solemn, breathing heavily, but his eyes were sharp.
There are people who want to target Fang Yuan late at night, they are looking for death!
"It's okay, go back."
Fang Yuan pondered for a moment and said calmly.
It is best to stay within the well and not into the river. There is no need to go too deep.
Zheng Guanyin is the true concubine of Prince Yin, in other words, she is the sister-in-law of Emperor Li Shimin.
Li Shimin imprisoned his sister-in-law here. Normally, someone must be guarding her.
But Bishamon's military advisor was still able to come in and out freely. Wouldn't it be a slap in Li Shimin's face if he conducted further investigations?
Moreover, it is not yet certain whether Bishamon's military advisor is hiding in the darkness, so there is no need to take risks and investigate further.
As Fang Yuan thought, Bishamon Military Advisor had been hiding in the darkness and was relieved after seeing Fang Yuan leave.
But he did not leave as he said, but secretly entered the mansion again alone.
The night passed like this.
Fang Yuan's confrontation with Bishamon's military advisor again did not cause any disturbance.
When the morning sun rises in the east, Fang Jingyu wakes up from bed.
"Oh, I'm so tired."
"Hey, why is the master in my bed?"
Fang Jingyu never stays in bed and sits up as soon as she wakes up.
But as soon as he got up, he realized that he was very tired and saw Fang Yuan sleeping on his bed.
But after looking around, Fang Jingyu immediately climbed out of bed carefully because she found that this was not her room.
When crossing Fang Yuan, Fang Yuan also woke up from his sleep.
"Old, Master."
Fang Jingyu screamed.
After falling on the bed, I stood nervously.
Like a child who made a mistake, he lowered his head and folded his hands.
"Do you remember what happened last night?"
Fang Yuan yawned, stood up and said.
After returning with Fang Jingyu last night, this girl seemed to have had a nightmare, grabbing Fang Yuan's clothes and refusing to let go.
After thinking about it, Fang Yuan left her to sleep in his bed. She was still young anyway, so there was no problem.
"No, I don't remember."
"It seems like I had a nightmare, and now my whole body is so tired."
Fang Jingyu thought for a while, shook her head and said.
Seeing that Fang Yuan didn't blame her for his bed, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
As an adopted child, Fang Jingyu has always been obedient at home.
She knows what can and cannot be done, and she also knows how to please people.
For example, as long as Fang Yuan is around, she will take the initiative to massage Fang Yuan, even more actively than the red catkins and the green ladies.
"Do you know Zheng Guanyin?"
Fang Yuan thought for a while and asked.
"Zheng Guanyin?"
"I don't know."
Fang Jingyu’s voice became much louder.
But Little Naoguao thought about it and shook his head regretfully.
"Do you still remember how you lived in Chang'an City before?"
Fang Yuan continued to ask.
Fang Jingyu may know Zheng Guanyin.
But maybe because I was young, I forgot.
You know, Fang Jingyu is only seven or eight years old now.
It would probably take half a year for a child to wander from Chang'an City to Liaozhou City, right?
Based on this calculation, it is possible that she was younger in Chang'an City and could not remember anything.
"Here, in the dark dungeon..."
"Some people beat us, and some people don't give us food to eat..."
"I, I, wuwuwu... Master, I don't dare to think about it. Can I not think about it?"
Fang Jingyu's body trembled.
The sound was normal at the beginning.
But after a few words, tears fell.
Looking at her face, she suddenly turned pale and was full of fear.
"Then I don't want to."
"Don't think about unhappy things."
Fang Yuan held her in his arms and comforted her.
Or maybe Fang Jingyu is a tool trained by Bishamon.
This made her very scared when facing Chang'an City, and she even knew about the dog cave where Zheng Guanyin's residence was imprisoned.
I still remember that when I first met Fang Jingyu, she had many wounds on her body and a scar as big as a bowl on her neck, which has not gone away yet.
Fang Jingyu soon stopped crying, but her body was still twitching.
She was very sensible and quickly struggled out of Fang Yuan's arms, forcing out a smile.
"Go wash up."
"While Li Danqiu and his sister are still in the house, learn more from them."
Fang Yuan smiled and rubbed her head.
This child is too sensible, but lacks the naughtiness that a child should have.
But it’s no wonder that if you depend on others and worry about being kicked out, you should be sensible.
"Okay, I'll go right away!"
Fang Jingyu nodded heavily.
Leaving Fang Yuan's room at a trot.
I went to the well to fetch water for washing, and also wanted to help Fang Yuan carry water to the room.
But Fang Yuan had already stood up, so she didn't need to bother her so much. The two of them washed up at the well together.
After finishing breakfast, Fang Yuan set off for the county office.
Just after arriving at the county government office, Li Daozong arrived unexpectedly.
"Fang Ling, I have something to discuss with you alone!"
Li Daozong is upright.
"Please come to the conference room."
Fang Yuan was shocked, stood up and said.
The layout of Chang'an County government and the relationship between the governor's office.
On one side are the offices of the county magistrate and registrar, and on the other side are the conference room and the entrance to the cell.
As for the back, there are backyards, archives, etc.
In the conference room.
"I have made an important discovery."
"Bishamon will rebel in the near future!"
Li Daozong looked serious and said in a deep voice.
"Rebellion?!"
"Shasha is true what they said?!"
Fang Yuan was shocked.
Unexpectedly, Li Daozong came to him to talk about this.
I thought it was Mo Cailing or he found out about last night.
But what Li Daozong said shocked Fang even more.
Rebellion... Bishamon really dares to do anything.
"Inferred from their words."
"Now the main forces of the imperial court are outside, and only Yuchi Jingde, the most powerful general, is in Chang'an City."
"Bishamon will most likely take advantage of the war between the imperial court and the Eastern Turks to rebel."
Li Daozong said in a deep voice.
Now that the imperial court is at war with the Eastern Turks, all the troops have been dispatched.
Not only the troops, but also most of the generals who led the troops in the war were taken away, leaving only one or two in Chang'an City.
Then the success rate of rebellion is the highest during this period, which is a super good opportunity.
Fortunately, there are good news on the battlefield ahead, and victory is right in front of us.
According to what he knows, victory will be determined within a month or two.
"Hiss!!!"
"Does Your Majesty know?!"
Fang Yuan took a breath.
No wonder Bishamon wanted to destroy the Yellow River dikes and introduce Eastern Turkic cavalry.
All they did was to make the Tang Dynasty feel chaotic and take the opportunity to rebel.
No wonder Military Advisor Bishamon said he knew too much, that’s what he meant.
"Your Majesty already knows."
"My Lord Ming reminds you to pay more attention to the situation in Chang'an City these days."
"If there is any trouble, you can ask me or His Majesty for explanation."
Li Daozong said in a deep voice.
The matter was serious, but the emperor still wanted to take the opportunity to eradicate Bishamon.
So there was no big fanfare, just notifying people in some important departments to know.
For example, Fang Yuan, as the Chang'an Order, is responsible for the security of Chang'an County and manages the affairs of Chang'an County, so he should know.
"I understand."
Fang Yuan nodded heavily.
At the same time, I was thinking about whether to tell Li Daozong what happened last night?
After all, it has evolved into a rebellion. The matter is too big to hide.
"Just understand."
"You should work harder these days."
"But you have to act like you don't know anything."
Li Daozong nodded and said.
His expression slowly relaxed.
"King Rencheng, I have a question."
"What's going on with Zheng Guanyin now?"
Fang Yuan pondered for a moment and asked.
He was still considering whether to inform Li Daozong about last night's events.
"Zheng Guanyin?"
"Do you suspect she is related to Bishamon?"
Li Daozong frowned suddenly.
The look on Fang Yuan's face changed slightly.
It's like vigilance, blame, and other meanings.
"Bishamon is Prince Yin's nickname. It's no secret."
"And Zheng Guanyin is the widow of Prince Yin, so the lower officials will inevitably doubt where she is."
Fang Yuan explained.
At the same time, he was surprised at the change in Li Daozong's expression.
"It's normal to have doubts. In fact, I also have doubts."
"But Zheng Guanyin's identity is special and we shouldn't doubt it. Don't stare at her either."
Li Daozong was relieved.
His expression slowly returned to his original appearance.
I have no doubts about Fang Yuan’s explanation.
Fang Yuan opened his mouth to say something else, but was interrupted by Li Daozong reaching out.
"Let's put it this way."
"Zheng Guanyin is watched by His Majesty, not by us."
"If Zheng Guanyin has something to do with Bishamon, it's impossible for him not to know about it."
Li Daozong said in a deep voice.
There was a bit of amusement in the expression, but it quickly disappeared.
"Okay, I understand."
Fang Yuan nodded and said.
Decided not to tell Li Daozong what happened last night.
According to Li Daozong, even if he should doubt Zheng Guanyin, he and others cannot doubt him.
"Okay, I'm back."
"Remember, don't investigate Zheng Guanyin. Unless you really have real evidence, His Majesty will not like you."
Li Daozong stood up.
After preparing to leave, he reminded Fang Yuan again.
Fang Yuan expressed his understanding and sent Li Daozong out to the door.
Looking at Li Daozong's leaving figure, Fang Yuan fell into deep thought.
Things are getting really complicated, and Bishamon actually wants to rebel.
As soon as I took office as the Chang'an Order, I encountered something like rebellion, which was very disturbing.
You haven’t had time yet, so you can’t keep busy and work for the court, right?
After thinking about it, Fang Yuan walked out of the county office instead of going back to work...
