Lin Ye stood on the height of a stone tower, overlooking the big city, but even from such a place, what he could see was only a fraction of Yunzhou.
But even if you can see the entire Yunzhou, what fraction of the world is it?
Lin Ye is here because someone invited him to come here, saying that he came from Dongbo.
A man wearing a long cloth came up slowly, came behind Lin Ye, leaned down and saluted: "I have met General Lin."
Lin Ye didn't look back and asked him: "Are you from Dongbo?"
The man replied: "No."
Lin Ye: "Since you are not from Dongbo, why did Dongbo recommend you to come here?"
The man seemed to think for a moment and then replied: "Because I am from Loufan."
Lin Ye looked back at him and asked, "Why did you come to vote for me?"
The man said: "I am originally from Loufan Jingtai. I went to Dongbo to do business and accidentally met General Lin."
He looked at the brocade robes on Lin Ye's body: "The brocade robes worn by General Lin, worn by the commander of Wu Lingwei, probably have some credit to my subordinates."
Lin Ye turned around and faced this man. He didn't say anything, just looked at him.
This person is none other than Helian Youge at Lou Fan's mirror.
Seeing Lin Ye looking at him squarely, Helian Youge felt that his chance had come. He was about to continue speaking when he saw Lin Ye suddenly step forward.
Helian Youge is also a master. With his background, he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and he has great talent, so he is already the best among his peers.
But he couldn't avoid it.
Lin Ye grabbed Helian Youge's neck and slowly raised his arm. Helian Youge was lifted in the air by Lin Ye with one hand.
With his strength, he didn't even have the strength to break free, and was held there like a noodle.
"I guess."
Lin Ye raised his head and looked at Helian Youge's face that had obviously turned blue and purple, but his eyes were as calm as the water in an ancient well, without any ripples.
He said: "I guess you deliberately revealed your identity for other reasons. You think that I will think that your identity as Lou Fan on the stage will be of great use to me in the future."
Helian Youge had difficulty breathing and wanted to speak, but his voice was very small and hoarse.
"I can be a general, ahem, I can make contributions to the general. In the future, I can lead the way for Dayu's Northern Expedition..."
As soon as Lin Ye used his strength, Helian Youge could no longer speak.
Lin Ye said: "I am not a general of the frontier army, why do you think I would be interested in the Northern Expedition?"
After saying this, Lin Ye loosened his fingers slightly, giving Helian Youge a chance to speak.
Helian Youge was already regretting it.
He asked someone to help him in Dongbo, and after a lot of effort, he obtained the identity of a Dongbo person, and got the opportunity to come to Dayu on official business.
According to the original plan, he came to Lin Ye as the Dongbo Helian family.
But just when he was trying to find a way to ask Lin Ye out, he suddenly had a whim.
If his identity as a Loufan person was directly revealed, Lin Ye would probably be more interested.
If he had known that Lin Ye was like this, he might as well have continued to pretend to be from Dongbo. When he said the words "I am from Loufan" just now, he was still complacent, thinking that he was really a stroke of genius.
At this time, Lin Ye let go of his hand slightly. In desperation, Helian Youge finally understood that Lin Ye was just giving him a chance.
Lin Ye was not interested in talking about the Northern Expedition at this time. That was a matter for the border troops and Emperor Yu, not Lin Ye's.
Therefore, using such bait to catch Lin Ye not only did not make Lin Ye take the bait, but also aroused Lin Ye's anger.
The greater the anger, the more murderous the intention becomes.
"I know, a secret."
Helian Youge took advantage of Lin Ye to gather some strength and said eagerly: "A plan by the Emperor Jade to get rid of Prince Dayucheng."
Lin Ye narrowed his eyes slightly: "Huh?"
He let go of his hand, and Helian Youge fell heavily to the ground.
Helian Youge coughed a few times and fell to the ground, panting to regain some strength.
"I once followed General Lin to Junye City. In Junye City, all my troops were wiped out, and I was the only one who escaped."
Helian Youge said: "But, in addition to Junye City, I also have the secret spy Lou Fan to help me, so I can escape."
"In order to escape for my life, I didn't dare to take a shortcut north to return to Dongbo. Instead, I took a detour and rested in Linmanting City..."
When he said this, he looked at Lin Ye's face again.
When he was in Dongbo, he saw Lin Ye take action. At that time, he felt that he and Lin Ye should be almost the same, maybe he was slightly better.
But now, he can't even avoid Lin Ye's attack. How long has it passed? Why can this beauty enter the country so quickly?
This terrifying speed of strength improvement should not exist at all, it is completely unreasonable.
If he had known this earlier, he might not have come.
"In Linmanting City, I learned something."
Helian Youge said: "Your Jade Emperor plans to get rid of Xie Fulan, the Prince of Cheng County, and arranges for the Yu Ling Guards to lurk in Linmanting City in advance."
"Several of Lou Fan's secret spies were captured by the Yuling Guards in Linmanting City, but they were not killed or sent to Geling. Instead, they were secretly sent to Yunzhou."
He looked at Lin Ye: "There must be something wrong with this. After I came here this time, I heard that Prince Cheng had arrived at Linmanting City, and I realized that this person should be someone from Yu Lingwei who wanted to frame Prince Cheng."
Although Lin Ye probably had some speculation about Prince Cheng's fate, he still couldn't help being shocked.
Emperor Jade planned things so deeply and meticulously, who of the people who were plotted by him could really survive?
At that time, the emperor had actually arranged for Yu Lingwei to go to Linmanting City.
"These cannot exchange for your life."
Lin Ye looked down at Helian Youge and said, "Think again."
Helian Youge's face changed, his eyes flickered, and his mind started to work rapidly, forcing himself to think about what kind of secret he should tell in order to save his life.
"In fact, there are many people in Dongbo who are secretly colluding with Lou Fan, including many wealthy families in Dongbo..."
As soon as he said this, Lin Ye shook his head slightly: "Not interested."
Helian Youge said quickly: "There are secret spies named Lou Fan in Yunzhou City. I can help the general arrest them all."
Lin Ye seemed to hesitate for a moment this time, but quickly shook his head again: "Not enough."
Helian Youge was anxious and began to sweat on his forehead.
I really regret it, extremely regret it.
He thought it was a stroke of luck, but it turned out to be unlucky.
"I also know where Yu Lingwei may be hiding in Yunzhou City."
Helian Youge raised his head, his eyes full of prayer.
Lin Ye: "Say."
"The people captured by Yu Lingwei in Linmanting City found out from these spies where the spies in Yunzhou City were hiding."
"They directly found the place, killed some people, arrested some people, and only one person survived. This person contacted me secretly to inform me about this."
Lin Ye: "Take me to find this person."
Helian Youge stood up: "Okay, I...ahem, I'll take the general with me right now."
The two people left the stone tower and walked for a while. Lin Ye's carriage was waiting on the roadside.
Under the guidance of Helian Youge, the carriage stopped outside a Taoist temple, which was a remote location in Yunzhou City.
There are more poor people on the south side of the city. The Kitano Palace is in the southeast of the city, which is relatively better off. The southwest side of the city is even poorer.
This is one kind of appearance of sentient beings.
When the carriage stopped, the people passing by gave way. They didn't know where the carriage came from, but they knew that they couldn't afford to offend anyone who could ride in the carriage.
Especially, when they saw Lin Ye's purple brocade robe, they hid further away.
Helian Youge pointed to the dilapidated house in front of him: "This is it."
Who would have thought that someone who could guard an incomplete Taoist temple in a place where poor people live together was actually Lou Fan's spy.
The common people were afraid when they saw the man in brocade clothes, but when they saw the man in brocade clothes entering the Taoist temple, they dared to gather around and take a look.
Helian Youge lowered his voice and said to Lin Ye: "The person I want to see is named Fang Weishi. He has been here for more than ten years. He treats poor people every day, so he is quite respected."
Lin Ye turned back to look at the ragged people. They were frightened by Lin Ye's gaze and took two steps back, but soon they stepped forward cautiously.
"Sir, are you trying to arrest Fang Shenxian?"
A man who looked to be in his twenties bravely asked.
Lin Ye was silent for a while, then shook his head: "No."
Because of these two words, the people surrounding him all laughed. They said that they knew they would not come to arrest Fang Shenxian. What a good person Fang Shenxian was, how could he be arrested by the government.
Helian Youge sighed softly: "Even a person of your status is afraid of public opinion?"
Lin Ye ignored him and stepped through the door.
This Taoist temple is really dilapidated, but the yard is kept very clean, without even a weed.
Seeing someone coming, a middle-aged man wearing a patchwork robe came out of the house.
The moment he saw Helian Youge, his body visibly stiffened, and when he saw Lin Ye's purple brocade gown, he seemed to feel relieved in an instant.
He let out a sigh of relief: "I'm finally here, but I didn't expect you to bring it."
Helian Youge said: "What I brought is better than what others brought."
He pointed at the house, and Fang unknown immediately moved out of the way, inviting Lin Ye and the others to come in.
After Helian Youge came in, he closed the door and looked at Fang Weiwen: "This is General Lin, the commander of Wu Lingwei. I brought him here to redeem myself and you."
After saying this, he looked at Lin Ye and said: "He probably knows some things that the general is interested in."
Lin Ye hummed and pointed outside: "Do the people here call you Fang Shenxian?"
Fang Weishi leaned over and said: "Return to the general, it is the wrong love of the villagers."
Lin Ye asked again: "A while ago, many of Lou Fan's spies in Yunzhou City were arrested by Yu Lingwei. Do you know about this?"
Fang unknown glanced at Helian Youge, then nodded: "I know."
Lin Ye asked again: "You know more about the spy Lou Fan in Yunzhou City than he does, don't you?"
Fang unknown also looked at Helian Youge again, and then nodded: "Yes, Lord Helian is not in Yunzhou, so naturally he doesn't know as much as I do..."
Before he finished speaking, Lin Ye suddenly reached out and pinched Helian Youge's neck.
Lin Ye exerted force on his hand, grasped it, and twisted it.
There was a click.
Helian Youge's neck was broken immediately, and the moment Lin Ye let go of his hand, the body fell down softly.
This time, Fang unknown person trembled with fright.
Lin Ye said calmly: "He has been redeemed, now it is your turn."
Fang Weishi was silent for a moment and closed his eyes: "I had known that this day would happen, so I would not have read the Taoist sages' books. But if I had not read the sages, I would probably be frightened and panicked again. The sages can change my mind, but they cannot change my destiny."
.”
There was a snap.
Lin Ye also grabbed his neck, and then pushed him out of the door: "Come with me, redemption or not, depends on your past, and more importantly, on my heart."
So, the people outside this dilapidated Taoist temple saw their Fang Shenxian and followed me into the carriage.
But, why don't we see another person come out?
