"For example, I have been dismissed from the post of General Ying Yang of Zhangye County. Although some of my previous subordinates will still respect me and do some things for me, the imperial court and imperial power also hold a very heavy weight in their hearts. If the emperor
If they want to kill me, I'm afraid they won't be able to do anything. So, what I mean is that I want to secretly develop some power and force that can be completely controlled by ourselves. However, don't be anxious about this matter. I have just taken the preliminary steps.
Our ideas and how to act require further demonstration and planning on our part.”
After hearing this, Nie Xiaoyu still didn't speak. When the carriage left the imperial city and passed through the busy city, Nie Xiaoyu finally said: "Sir, how do I develop my power? I don't have enough information and I don't have a mature plan..."
Suddenly Nie Xiaoyu stopped talking and turned her head to look in a certain direction through the window.
Wang Junlin followed Nie Xiaoyu's gaze and saw a group of bride-grooming processions approaching slowly in the distance.
Wang Junlin smiled and said, "How about it? It's the first time you see a wedding in this era. You feel very curious, right?"
Nie Xiaoyu shook her head and said: "Everyone in this wedding team is paying attention to our carriage from the corner of their eyes, and as they get closer to us, their breathing rates increase, indicating that their heartbeats
Speed up, I’m a little nervous.”
Wang Junlin's expression condensed and he looked closely and found that there were more than forty people in the wedding team. No matter what they were doing, they were all powerful and had sharp eyes. The most important thing was that their pace was too steady. Combined with Nie Xiaoyu,
As he spoke, his brows furrowed unconsciously.
"Ye Ying, something is not right with this wedding team. Let brothers stay vigilant and keep distance from them. Keep loose on the outside and tight on the inside. If the other party wants to harm us, don't kill them." Wang Junlin waved his hand to Ye Ying and gave instructions in a low voice.
After a few words, Ye Ying rode back and forth in a circle, and according to Wang Junlin's words, he gave instructions to the nineteen guards one by one and made preparations.

Zuixiang Restaurant is located on the most prosperous avenue in the western part of the capital. It is rumored that this restaurant is the property of a certain noble family. It is also one of the most high-end restaurants in the capital.
Bai Ding, the cost of eating and drinking here is enough to cover the living expenses of Shan Dou Xiaomin for several months, but the more expensive it is, the better his business is. Many times, if you don't book in advance, you won't even be able to find any vacancies when you come.
, especially the private seats above the second floor. There are four floors in Zuixiang Tower. The higher you go up, the more difficult it becomes to get up.
It's still like this today, Zuixiang Building is still full, but Xiao Shitou, the waiter in charge of the fourth floor, is beating a snare drum in his heart, because the fourth floor is usually filled with regular customers who are well-known in Kyoto, but today
There were more than a dozen customers on the fourth floor, but he didn't recognize any of them. He secretly asked the shopkeeper, but the shopkeeper just told him not to mind his own business and just do his own thing as usual.
"Little Shitou, don't meddle in other people's business. Just serve food and wine. These men all have backgrounds. Although we are not afraid of them, they are not easy to provoke!" the shopkeeper warned in a low voice.
"Boss, the target is less than 500 steps away from here and will be here soon." A man ran up to the fourth floor from downstairs and whispered to the middle-aged man sitting by the window.
"Tell the brothers to work hard with all your strength and execute everything according to the plan. This is a big deal of one hundred thousand taels of silver. As long as it succeeds, it will be enough for all of us to spend several years." That person is called the boss.
The middle-aged man's eyes flashed and he said solemnly.
"Don't worry, boss. When have we ever failed in the jobs we have taken on in Bashan Ghost Cave over the years?" Someone on the fourth floor suddenly whispered, and others agreed.
At this time, there was the sound of footsteps, and the waiter named Xiao Shitou came up with tea. The middle-aged man called the boss took out a piece of indigo silver from his arms, threw it to Xiao Shitou, and said, "We have something to do."
"Don't come up unless we call you!"
"Don't worry, I'm objective. I've remembered it. Without you calling me, I won't come up to disturb you." Xiao Shitou smiled and thanked him repeatedly, put away the money, and went downstairs neatly.
"Here we come, boss!"
As a person shouted softly, everyone's eyes turned to the window and looked at the head of the street, where a carriage appeared. On both sides of the carriage, two teams of knights guarded the carriage.
"Get ready! The second wave and the others are the first wave to take action. We are the second wave. We will follow my orders before we take action."
The boss in the ghost cave in Nabashan said in a deep voice, and everyone claimed that it was, and then everyone took out a military crossbow from their arms. Two of the big men took out some parts from a big box and quickly assembled it.
He bought an eight-oxen crossbow.
"Then my employer is very powerful. Forget about these repeating crossbows. I didn't expect that we could even get something as good as the Eight Ox Crossbow." Seeing everyone getting ready quickly, the boss of Bashan Ghost Cave said with a chuckle.
At this time, Wang Junlin and his entourage were walking forward slowly. Everything seemed so calm. The shops on the street were still so lively, and the hawkers were still shouting vigorously. People were coming and going on the street, but they all consciously gave way to the two sides.
On the other side, let Wang Junlin and his entourage and the wedding team drive in the middle of the road. At most, they only looked at them curiously, as usual.
Everyone's eyes followed the movement of the carriage.
At this time, the wedding team met Wang Junlin and his entourage, and they were about to pass by each other. Wang Junlin's expression condensed, but there was a rare chilling look in his eyes. After observing closely, he finally confirmed that these people had something.
question.
Seeing that the two sides were about to pass each other, Wang Junlin ordered: "Be careful."
Almost at the same time, the other party also launched.
There were more than 40 people in the wedding team, from the groom at the front to everyone, their expressions changed, showing murderous faces, and then they pulled out a bright steel knife from somewhere on the body, with a clever flick of the wrist,
He pulled out a sword flower, then pointed the blade forward, all the blades pointed directly at the carriage where Wang Junlin and Nie Xiaoyu were.
Ye Ying was shocked, with a ferocious look on his face. Almost at the same time as the opponent took action, he and twenty ghost-eyed masters also drew their weapons. The swords of both sides collided with each other, making a harsh sound of gold and iron.
The nineteen guards led by Ye Ying are all masters of Guiyan in Kyoto Division, and there are even nearly half of them who are in the foundation-building stage, but the opponent has twice the number of them, and their strength is not weak, and the person who takes the lead is also a master of the stagnation stage.
, and Ye Ying fought together, and for a while the two sides were evenly matched.
