The government servant on the side saw him, walked over quickly, and shouted, "What's the matter?"
Qin Yi said, "I have important matters to see the prefect."
The yamen officer sneered, "Is it possible for you to see the prefect whenever you want?"
Qin Yi said in a deep voice, "I have something really important, please let me know."
He knew that the only way to mobilize the government officials was to take care of them, but the government officials stood stubbornly behind the soldiers.
Although Qin Yi didn't look down on them, he was afraid that these two stupid young men would actually take action and intensify the situation, so he could only stand still.
"The prefect is busy with his affairs, so he doesn't have time to see you." The officer shouted coldly, "Leave quickly, or I will beat you out if you don't leave!"
Qin Yi frowned, glanced around, observed the position of each soldier, and thought about whether he should force his way in.
I'm afraid that if there is any movement here, the bandits lurking in the dark will be surprised.
Suddenly, a faint fragrance came from beside him. Qin Yi was surprised. He turned around and found that it was Xuan Lingyao.
"Xuan Lingyao, the sister of Duke Ying, asks to see you, and please let me know." Looking at the Yamen servant, Xuan Lingyao said softly.
The yamen servant was slightly surprised when he heard this.
Qin Yi was also surprised.
Without delay, the Yamen servant responded quickly, "I'll go and report it right away. Miss Lingyao will wait a moment."
After finishing speaking, the Yamen servant quickly ran towards Bupeng.
Qin Yi was shocked. He originally thought that Xuan Lingyao was the daughter of a certain imperial official, but he didn't expect that she turned out to be the Duke of the country!
In Linzhan, only those who have made outstanding military exploits can be granted the title of Duke of the Kingdom by the Emperor, a rank of first rank, and a first-class dignitary.
"Do you want to see the prefect for something?" Xuan Lingyao asked.
She was surprised when she saw Qin Yi walking towards the high platform, so she paid attention secretly. When she saw that he was blocked outside, she came over to rescue him.
"There is something big..." Qin Yi did not elaborate, but was still surprised, "Is your brother the Duke of the country?"
"This is a title given to my father by the late emperor. It is hereditary. After my father passed away, he was inherited by my elder brother." Xuan Lingyao said in a low voice.
"I didn't expect your family background to be so prominent..." Qin Yi sighed.
In Linzhan, there are only a few people who can win the title of Duke. Therefore, it is easy to find out who Xuan Lingyao's father is.
Xuan Lingyao shook her head slowly, with a bitter look on her pretty face.
If possible, she would rather have a mediocre family background and reunite her relatives instead of being separated by yin and yang...
Qin Yi was confused. If he guessed correctly, Xuan Lingyao's brother, the current Duke Ying, should be in Zhanjing. Xuan Lingyao should also be in Zhanjing. Why did he come to Lilanfu City to study?
Before he could ask, the yamen official who went to report quickly came back, bowed and said, "Miss Lingyao, your Excellency invites you."
When the soldiers heard this, they stepped aside and stood aside to watch with cold eyes.
Xuan Lingyao nodded and said to Qin Yi, "Go in."
After saying that, she moved lightly with lotus steps, swaying her slender waist slightly, and walked slowly towards the cloth tent.
Qin Yi stepped up to follow him, but the Yamen servant didn't say a word when he saw him.
Entering Bupeng, Zeng Mingzhi, who had a black beard and a scarlet robe, strode towards him. He said with a smile, "Ling Yao, it's been a long time since we said goodbye last year. Your Majesty has entrusted me to take care of you."
Yes, now it seems that I have failed in my duty."
Xuan Lingyao bowed slightly and said with a smile, "Your Majesty is joking, how dare I blame you, brother. I am busy with my studies and cannot escape. I haven't seen you for a long time. Please forgive me."
Zeng Mingzhi stroked his beard and smiled, "You are still so good at talking."
His eyes turned and fell on Qin Yi. Zeng Mingzhi was a little surprised, "Who is this?"
Xuan Lingyao suppressed her smile and said, "This is a member of the Ce Academy, my classmate. There are some things that I need to discuss with an adult."
In an instant, Zeng Mingzhi understood. No wonder Xuan Lingyao suddenly met each other after a long time in the future. It turned out to be for this person.
Without Xuan Lingyao to carry him, it would be difficult for this person to come in.
I just don’t know what important matters this person has. If it’s a favor or something like that, he doesn’t have time to care about it.
Immediately, he asked calmly, "I wonder why you came here?"
Qin Yi was secretly amused after hearing this.
The tone of voice is very good, there is a hint of alienation in the plainness, as if I am afraid that I will beg him.
I don’t know what his expression will be like after I say it.
"After my observation, there are many shady people around the execution ground." Qin Yi said aloud.
Xuan Lingyao frowned and turned to look.
Zeng Ming knew that his pupils suddenly shrank, so he hurriedly took a few steps forward and exclaimed, "Are you sure?"
……
Fifteen miles outside Lanfu City, nearly 10,000 armored soldiers lined up in a long queue, like a long black dragon, marching forward in silence.
Everyone has piercing eyes, holding on to sharp swords, moving like a dragon or a tiger, and the armor on their bodies scrapes against each other, making a harsh sound.
In the center of the long line, there was a wooden prison car. In the cage sat a man wearing prison uniform with shackled hands and feet. He had disheveled hair and an unkempt face. He looked extremely embarrassed, but his eyes were quite bright. He glanced around from time to time, as if
What to look forward to.
There were many infantry soldiers surrounding the prison car, layer upon layer, and the protection was extremely tight.
At the front of the team, there are two generals in full armor, sitting on the back of the horse with their backs straight and imposing, and they are riding forward, followed by a group of soldiers holding the flag.
There is a word on the flag, scenery!
Suddenly, a horse galloped from the front, bringing up billows of dust.
When he came closer, the scout reined in his horse, dismounted and bowed, saying, "I'm reporting to the two captains, the Yinlian Canyon is ahead of me. I've checked it under the banner, and haven't found anything wrong yet."
Among the two generals, the more mature-looking one frowned and said, "Yinlian Canyon?"
He remembered that this canyon was not small, shaped like a spindle, wide in the middle and narrow at both ends, making it an excellent ambush location.
After thinking about it, he looked at the other captain and was about to speak when the other captain laughed and said, "Why, Lao Huang, you don't want to change the route, do you?"
This man has a dark complexion and a thumb-width scar on his chin, which makes him look a bit ruthless.
The captain known as Lao Huang nodded, "Although this place is quite far away from Ningyou Mansion, it's better to be careful."
"Old Huang, you are too cautious!" Captain Scar laughed, "The general is wise and powerful. His daring to leave alone shows that there will be no danger in the future, so you don't need to worry and go with confidence!"
The general he was talking about was none other than Jing Xun, the man who defeated the Ningyou Bandits.
And these two people are captains under Jing Xun's command. They are in the sixth rank. Their authority is not low and they can control ten thousand people.
The old Chengdu captain shook his head and said, "General, when you entrust your troops to us, you have to be careful and make sure you don't make any mistakes, so that you can live up to your high expectations."
Captain Scar stopped his smile and said seriously, "But don't forget, the imperial court ordered me to take Jiao Mao to Lilanfu City for execution at noon today. There is still half an hour until noon. If we take a detour, we will inevitably
If you fail to arrive on time, you and I will not be able to escape the blame!"
When the old Chengdu captain heard this, he frowned and looked hesitant!
