Chapter 221

Su Jing and the others were on the way to investigate the authenticity of King Ling An, but it was really not easy for Xiao Li and the imperial envoy who were in Ping'an County now.

After finding out where Shang Ziru hid the food, Xiao Li has been trying to move all the food out, but Shang Ziru's people guarded it so strictly that Xiao Li couldn't do anything.

As for the pursuit of Shang Ziru, there was also no progress.

Until Xiao Li received the letter from the palace, which stated the emperor's order, Xiao Li immediately took the letter and went to the imperial envoy to conspire together, intending to take Shang Ziru down.

The imperial envoy also saw the letter, and he stretched his brows, saying: "Since it is the order of the emperor, then I will directly arrest people as the imperial envoy."

"No."

Xiao Li said with a solemn expression.

The imperial envoy looked puzzled: "Why?"

Xiao Li pondered for a moment and said: "The enemy is in the dark, but we are in the light. If Shang Zi dares to do such a thing in Ping'an County, he must have a backup. If we rashly come to the door, the other party is already prepared Yes, I am afraid that we will be the ones who will eventually become prisoners."

Xiao Li's concerns are not fake. Shang Ziru who can do such a crazy thing if he stays in Ping'an County is equivalent to a toubob. , that didn't work either.

After all, Xiao Li didn't know how many people the other party had.

Whether the Shang Mansion has set up a net, these are all they need to make corresponding countermeasures in advance.

Also, Xiao Li has already received a letter from An Shiba, and Jun Shang brought them to Ping'an County together.

Not only to solve the famine monk Ziru in Ping'an County, but also the future trouble of Su Changqing.

Xiao Li told the Imperial Envoy all these conjectures, and the Imperial Envoy came to his senses, and he slapped his forehead: "Master Xiao Li is more thoughtful. If we really come rashly, I'm afraid we will be caught in one go."

"I forgot, this is not Shengjing where Your Majesty is located, but the remote Ping'an County."

The imperial envoy didn't know that the king would come, so Xiao Li naturally would not tell him the news. Although there were eighteen people who followed the king, if one more person knew the danger of the king, the whereabouts of the king would be one more. The possibility of the club being leaked.

Therefore, Xiao Li couldn't say anything.

Xiao Li said lightly: "It's okay, Mr. Imperial Envoy, we can make a plan first."

Naturally, the Imperial Envoy had no objection to this, and he was even willing to cooperate with Xiao Li: "Okay, I and the rest of the guards will all follow the arrangements of Lord Xiao Li."

"At that time, we can split into two groups."

Xiao Li said, he picked up the charcoal pencil, drew on the paper, and quickly drew the map of Ping'an County.

As for the Shang Mansion and the place where the food is stored, Xiao Li made a clear mark on purpose, and said in a calm tone: "When the time comes, you will go to the Shang Mansion with the guards, and I will take five guards to the granary." Guard, once the imperial envoy starts to move, and we move again, the attack on the granary will definitely catch Shang Ziru by surprise."

After all, Shang Ziru deliberately did this in Ping'an County for the sake of the granary.

"At the same time, send another guard to guard outside the county to meet my helper."

Speaking of this, Xiao Li's tone paused, he made the mark, and then continued: "Let him stay here, I sent a message to the king six days ago, and now not only have I received a reply, but I have to You know, Your Majesty has sent other people to help us capture Shang Ziru, they are already on their way, presumably, they will reach Ping'an County tonight."

Hearing this, the imperial envoy nodded repeatedly.

Xiao Li continued: "Master Imperial Envoy, if you can't hold on, just send out the signal, and I will arrange someone to help you."

To be able to serve as the king's hidden guard, not only in terms of formation, but also in terms of combat effectiveness, one must also be able to fight ten against one.

If not, how can you protect your lord?

Xiao Li took all aspects into consideration, so he arranged this way.

There are the most people guarding the granary, so let him deal with it. Although Shang Ziru is resourceful, he is not invincible.

In the end, both Xiao Li and the imperial envoy unanimously decided to postpone the plan until night.

Now, they are waiting for the night to come.

But Shang Ziru didn't know anything about it.

Recently, he has been looking for the men in black who were about to attack his granary, but he has not found any clues. He thought it would be the gang of newcomers who did it, but he didn't expect that those people stayed in the place peacefully. In the yard, there was no unusual movement.

In this way, Shang Ziru couldn't guess who would intentionally attack his granary.

And those eyeliners who were guarding the yard had already been withdrawn by him.

At this time, the butler hurried back, and walked up to Shang Ziru with a solemn expression. His eyes scanned the surroundings, signaling all the guards in the hall to leave.

The eight guards looked up at Shang Ziru, seeing the latter nodding, they left the hall.

"My lord, this subordinate has received a letter."

After speaking, the butler took out the letter from his pocket, handed it to Shang Ziru, and said solemnly, "It was sent from there."

Shang Ziru took the letter, opened it quickly, and scanned the letter quickly.

There was a flash of light in his eyes, and his face was filled with excitement: "That's great!"

The housekeeper guessed: "What new orders have your lord received?"

Shang Ziru nodded: "The higher-ups have sent people over, saying that all the food will be delivered tonight, and there are people outside to meet it."

"That's really rare good news!"

The housekeeper also had a smile on his face, and he said cheerfully: "In this way, the master doesn't have to worry about how to transport the grain away."

Shang Ziru raised his head and laughed, deeply convinced: "When all the food is out of Ping'an County, I'll be retired, and I won't have to worry about staying in Ping'an County anymore."

"Presumably, when I leave here, those people in the palace may not know."

"The fellow who is willing to recommend me to the king has helped me a lot."

Shang Ziru's face is full of self-satisfaction. If it is not thanks to that fellow, I am afraid that he will not have completed the task assigned by the superior so smoothly.

The butler understood Shang Ziru's deep meaning, and he echoed and boasted: "My lord is indeed worthy of being a lord!"

"Okay, okay, success or failure depends on tonight, you all have to be vigilant, and don't make any more troubles."

Shang Ziru suddenly became a little anxious. He thought that he would wait until the night came as soon as possible, and then hand over the food as soon as possible, so that he could also leave.

Moreover, in the past few days, he always had an ominous premonition.

But now when he saw the letter in his hand, Shang Ziru felt that he might be thinking too much for a while.

Sensing that there seemed to be something wrong with your lord's face, the housekeeper responded repeatedly: "Please rest assured, my lord, my subordinates will definitely guard the granary and make sure that no trouble will come out."

Shang Ziru sighed, "Just watch tonight."

Then, Shang Ziru ordered some other arrangements, and temporarily added twice as many dead men to the granary, intending to guard the granary so that not even a fly could fly in.

The housekeeper understood in his heart, and quickly responded, then hurriedly ran out to arrange things according to the adults' wishes.

into the night.

There was an air of unrest in the entire Ping'an County.

All parties have their own plans.

Shangfu.

Shang Ziru was pacing back and forth in the lobby. According to his status, it was not suitable for him to follow directly to the granary, so he had to send a housekeeper to make arrangements for him.

And the housekeeper will naturally not disappoint the adults' expectations, and will send people back to report the progress to the adults from time to time.

Unfortunately--

The housekeeper was guarding the granary, and half an hour had passed, but he still didn't see anyone who came to meet him.

He sent someone to pass the news back, which made Shang Zi feel restless, and wished he could go there in person to see what was going on.

But soon, Shang Ziru calmed down again.

He thought in his heart that the letters sent from above should not be faked. Since he said that he would send people over to pick up the food, he would definitely send people over.

Immediately, Shang Ziru sent someone to the granary to deliver a message to the butler, saying that he would wait patiently for another half an hour, and if he did not see anyone again, he would ask the butler to come back immediately.

After the steward received the message, he obeyed the order and continued to guard the granary.

At this time, outside Ping'an County.

Not long after Sujing and several secret guards arrived, they were about to enter Ping'an County, when they saw a group of men in black appearing from the other side, there were about dozens of them, and they were all pushing the kind of carts used to load food .

Dark Eleven felt that something was wrong, so he quietly knocked the last man in black unconscious, and learned from their conversation that they were going to be arranged to carry grain into Ping'an County tonight.

An Shiyi suddenly thought of the letter sent back by the chief of the dark guard before the pigeon, which bluntly stated that the food in Ping'an County was hidden, and there was a conspiracy suspected.

It seems that it is really a big conspiracy.

Therefore, An Shi asked the other brothers to follow him, merged into the night and knocked them all out silently, and even used his unique secret recipe - a dumb medicine that can't speak.

Immediately, dozens of men in black all fell into a coma and collapsed on the ground.

And Dark Eleven and the others took the cart away.

"Young Master, did the Chief of the Dark Guard mention where Shang Ziru hid his food?"

Dark Eleven asked.

Su Jing shook her head: "Not at all."

"Then should we go to the head of the dark guard first, or go to the granary first?"

An Shi was a little melancholy, he would have known that he would not have knocked out all the men in black before, if not, he would have given them a way.

An Shiba suddenly said: "I sent a letter to the head of the dark guard earlier, predicting the time when we will arrive in Ping'an County. The head of the dark guard has always made arrangements, and he should make preparations in advance."

An Shiyi guessed: "Then, maybe the head of the dark guard will send someone out to meet us?"

"possible."

As soon as the words fell, An Shiba suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure, seeing that his attire looked like a palace guard, An Shiba immediately said: "The answerer is here."

As soon as he made such a sound, the guards who came to meet them spotted them in an instant.

The guard walked quickly towards An Shiba and the others, seeing them all pushing a cart, the guard felt strange in his heart, but the guard finished his question seriously: "Everyone are from Beijing?"

"Exactly."

An Shiba said: "The person who sent you here is surnamed Xiao?"

"exactly!"

The guard nodded again and again, and immediately put down his guard: "It is my Master Xiao Li who sent the younger one over to meet you."

"Let's go then."

Dark eleven said, and by the way pushed the trolley to the guard: "Please push it for me, little brother, did Lord Xiao Li tell you where to take us?"

Guard: "."

Although the guard was confused by An Shiyi's actions, he still reacted quickly. He pushed the cart and said, "Master Xiao Li asked me to take everyone to the granary in Ping'an County."

"Master Xiao Li is already waiting for you at the granary."

"granary?"

Dark Eleven and Dark Eighteen made a sound in surprise at the same time.

After finishing speaking, the two glanced at each other quickly. They originally planned to go to the granary, but unexpectedly, the head of the dark guard was already waiting for them at the granary?
"I have a wild guess."

Dark Eleven said suddenly.

An Shiba also thought about it, and he glanced down at the cart he was pushing: "We went directly to the granary in an open and aboveboard manner. If Eleven guessed correctly, these carts should be used to carry grain and leave Ping'an County. It seems that those black-clothed men and Shang Ziru who we knocked out just now are our accomplices."

"Tsk tsk tsk, I didn't expect such a good thing to be bumped into by us."

Dark Eleven is triumphant.

If he had a tail, he would probably fly up to the sky right now.

An Shiba gave him a blank look, feeling speechless: "Since the bridge has already been erected, let's just cross the bridge, how about another draw board then?"

An Shiba was in a good mood and didn't care about An Shiba, he boasted: "Shiba is right."

An Shiba choked for a moment before saying: "Then let's go."

As he spoke, he looked at Su Jing who was standing in front again: "Master?"

"can."

Su Jing nodded.

The guard didn't know what they were talking dumb at all, but he was relieved when he saw them follow him, he almost thought that he would not be able to complete the task entrusted to him by Lord Xiao Li.

"Everyone, please follow the little one."

The guards went ahead to guide them.

Probably because of the dark night, after entering Ping'an County, the streets were empty, except for them, there was no one else.

A desolate breath rushed towards him, bleak.

It is in stark contrast to the prosperous night market in Shengjing.

But in the same way, it can be seen how difficult it is for the people in Ping'an County to live under Shang Ziru's control.

A decision was made wrong, but he did not expect that it would harm the people of the entire county.

The anger in Sujing's heart gradually deepened, she wished she could kill Shang Ziru on the spot, and make the people of Ping'an County vent their hatred, but he couldn't be in a hurry now.

Find all the food first, and then settle the charges with Shang Ziru...

Soon, the guards brought Dark Eleven and the others to the granary.

The guards originally wanted them to hide in the dark first, but they didn't expect them to push the cart out so carelessly.

What's even more outrageous is——

The guards saw that the guards in the granary not only didn't stop them, but let them in...? ? ?
This, what is going on here! ?
Seeing this, the guard looked dazed, and quickly ran to report to Xiao Li before he had time to think about it.
