Jin Tingjiao

Chapter 404
The generals led Xiao Huai and the others to walk in quickly, King Yan sat with one elbow on his knees, his eyes only fell on him.

Because of the backlight, I felt that those eyes, which were exactly the same as Xiao Huai's, were unusually deep even though no specific emotion could be seen.

"Is your lord okay?" He Lanzhun broke the deadlock with a voice, and quickly arrived in front of King Yan.Then he looked up at Lin Fengyi again: "General Lin! Should all the defense soldiers in the camp be dragged out and beheaded?!"

Lin Fengyi was sweating on her forehead, but she didn't dare to vent her breath.

After watching Xiao Huai, King Yan went to look at He Lanzhun, his eyes fell on the bloodstain on his shoulder: "It seems that you are not peaceful either."

He Lanzhun nodded: "We happened at the pier, Huo Jiu speculates that these people have been planning for a long time.

"Because of its excellent water quality, Huo Jiu is now staying in the blocked waters of the pier, searching for the people behind them."

King Yan remained silent for a while, then got up and said, "Go back to the city first."

...Shen Xi never knew that King Yan was so dangerous.

Shen Yan naturally didn't know, she took Liu Menglan all the way to the pier smoothly, and what she was thinking about was still why Shen Xi told her not to let Liu Menglan get in touch with her more.

When the carriage could no longer get in, it was discovered that it had reached the outskirts of the government office of the Governor's Mansion of Water Transport.

However, Huo Jiu was not in the government office.

The official boat used by the yamen for patrolling is floating on the river at the moment, Huo Jiu and his guards are standing on the bow accompanied by Yan Qin.

At this moment, the purple robe with exquisite embroidery had a half-foot-long gash on its right arm, which was not bandaged, but because the clothes were dark in color, the blood from the wound was not obtrusive.

"How far have you searched?" He asked while holding his sword.

Even though Yan Qin had a higher official rank than him, he didn't dare to be negligent at the moment, and quickly said: "Several villages along both sides of the river have been searched."

"My lord, the spies report back!" As soon as the words were finished, the head of a hundred households came with the spies.

Huo Jiu turned his head and took a look, and the spy said: "Lord Huo, a hut was found three miles across the bank, it seems that someone has lived in it recently, and found some remnants of daily necessities.

"Nearby people say that some people have indeed lived here in the past two months, and they don't know how many. When they pass by, they occasionally hear the sound of gambling dice, and they think they are helping gamblers.

"But at noon today, the hut was suddenly emptied, and the people who rented it disappeared."

Huo Jiu stared at the sparkling river for a while with cold eyes, and said, "Since there are daily necessities, there must have been buying and selling activities nearby. Ask every family, and check the accent, habits, things you bought, etc. come out!"

When the centurion heard the chill in his last words, he immediately snapped out.

And Huo Jiu glanced at the much quieter river, and turned back to get into the cabin.

When I turned around, I saw a few people standing on the shore not far away, but they looked somewhat familiar in front of that small figure.

He thought he was dazzled, so he couldn't help but took two steps towards the edge.

Shen Yan just took Liu Menglan to the shore, and at a glance she saw the group of people standing on the high bow of the boat, the figure in purple stood out from the crowd, making it impossible not to recognize him.

As soon as Huo Jiu came over, she also walked towards the water's edge: "Master Huo!"

Huo Jiu didn't know why, when he suddenly saw her in this complicated night, his heart felt like a breeze and a bright moon, and he felt at ease.

He didn't care about going down the gangway, and jumped directly onto the shore, holding her elbow: "Why are you here?"

Shen Yan never took her eyes off him an inch, until she was suddenly touched by him, her face became slightly hot again, she looked at his right arm and said: "My uncle returned home and said that your lord was injured.

"Sister guessed that the Lord would not pass the news back to the city until he got the exact news from the prince, so she sent me to bring a doctor to treat the wounded Lord."

She looked at Liu Menglan next to her, and Liu Menglan stepped forward to salute.

There were hundreds of people standing on and off the boat, since Huo Jiu and his men rode their horses to kick open the gate of the government office, no one dared to show their anger.

None of them dared to make a sound when he was silent, and they could only hold their breath when he was speaking.

At this moment, he supported Shen Yan with his right hand, swaying slightly as if the Prime Minister asked, and suddenly even his chin was forgotten.

After all, Yan Qin is experienced. After being tortured by this living Hades for half the night, he didn't know when the head would turn. Now a savior came, so there is no reason why he has no eyesight?
Then he hurriedly said: "It's windy by the river, why don't you invite the young lady to rest in the cabin!"

Huo Jiu turned his head and glanced at him, the fierce light disappeared from his eyes, he grabbed Shen Yan's wrist through his clothes and said, "Come on."

Shen Yan was about to struggle, but he was strong and strong, and she reckoned that she would not be able to break free, and she didn't want to make it ugly in front of outsiders, so she acquiesced in being dragged onto the gangway by him like this.

After entering the cabin, Yan Qin saw that she was covered in beauty, her face was like a peach blossom, and her accessories were all high-quality, so she knew that she was a great lady.

Thinking that although the cabin was clean, it might not be as good as Huo Jiu wanted, so someone brought some incense.

After burning the incense, someone wiped the table and stool with a handkerchief, served tea, and then called out a group of people with a wink.

In the past, Shen Yan only saw Huo Jiu's unrestrained appearance, but just now she saw him ordering all the heroes to stop him at the bow of the boat, and the thoughts of disapproving of him in the past have subsided again.

Or in other words, she couldn't help but look at him right now, and even looked up at him for some inexplicable reason.

The tea was on the table, but she didn't touch it, she just looked at him outside the curtain who decisively explained the errand.

Huo Jiu walked in and saw her sitting upright, his usual cold face softened as if caught in the spring breeze, he rolled up his sleeves and sat down, "It's also audacious to barge in here."

He looked at her with a smile for a while, his eyes were rippling, and they moved with the moonlight on the lake.

Looking at it, the smile on his face gradually faded, he put it on the table and grasped it with his hand, and then casually brushed the smoke that floated to his nose.

Shen Yan didn't know what he was thinking, but she didn't dare to forget what Shen Xi said, so she said, "Let's take a look at the injury first."

Huo Jiu looked at her, and obediently put his injured right arm on the table.

Liu Menglan who was standing outside heard the greeting and came in immediately, asking him to take off half of his robe.

Seeing this, Shen Yan evaded.

Huo Jiuyuan didn't care about these things, and wanted her to sit comfortably.

He was born as a hunter since he was a child, and he was impatient with these red tapes. Therefore, when King Yan asked him to stay in the palace, he would rather choose to go to prison for training.

But considering that she has always been so pedantic and still refuses to change her name, that's all.

Instead, Liu Menglan said, "Get some water to wipe off the blood."

Shen Yan is not familiar with his bad temper, but he is Shen Xi's person, but he dare not lose face.

Turning his head, he saw that half of Huo Jiu's exposed right arm was already covered with blood. Although the wound was not deep, it was a three or four inch long gash.

Then I couldn't care so much, there are no maids or officials here, since she has come, she might as well be a good person to the end.
