Chapter 3080： catch up

Chapter 3080 Chase

Shao Qingyuan left two people to watch in the big mansion and was in charge of the aftermath.

Immediately, he and Gu Yundong went straight to the prefect's yamen.

At this time, the government office was quiet, and as soon as I entered the door, I felt a chilling air.

The soldiers brought by Xia Qian surrounded the entire palace, and everyone in the palace was either killed or kept in the house to guard.

Xia Qian stood in the courtyard with a very ugly face. When he saw Shao Qingyuan coming over, he immediately walked up a few steps and said, "Quan Yan has already recruited, he is indeed Bai Zhiyan's person, and he was also involved in the case of Yu Tong's sentence of annihilation. It's been half a day since Bai Zhiyan escaped from the East Gate, but they are so many that they will definitely leave traces on the road. We can follow this clue to catch up, and maybe we can catch up."

Shao Qingyuan nodded, "Okay, let's go now, then I'll ask Xia here..."

Before he could finish speaking, Xia Qian said, "I used to climb up from the scouts step by step, no one is more suitable for tracking them than me, I will go with you. I will hand it over to the government office. It's just that I heard that General Zhou Shen from the Luozhou Prefectural Guard is bringing his troops here, and if he wants to take over the affairs here, it's not easy for my subordinates to disobey."

They belonged to the Southwest Great Camp, and they were not suitable for meddling in local politics. Moreover, this is the territory of General Zhou. They have few people, and if there is a conflict, they will not take care of it and will suffer.

While was talking, someone from outside came to report that General Zhou was coming.

Shao Qingyuan is in a hurry to chase people, but he really doesn't have the time to deal with these miscellaneous things, so it's better to fight quickly.

He said solemnly to Xia Qian, "I'll take care of General Zhou's side. Deputy General Xia will go first, and leave a mark along the way. We will catch up soon."

"Okay!" Xia Qian handed over and left with a dozen people.

Shao Qingyuan went out to see General Zhou. In his hand, he had a secret decree given by the emperor, which stated that officials along the way should cooperate with him in his actions.

Zhou Cang was originally very dissatisfied with these people breaking into his own territory and shouting and killing. The last time Yu Tong sentenced the whole family to be destroyed, the murderer has not yet been found. Now there are people who are bold enough to break in in the Lianfu Ya Keep an eye on it.

However, after seeing the secret decree and knowing the identity of Quan Yan, General Zhou Shen was shocked.

He also knew that Shao Qingyuan didn't trust him, for fear that he would also collude with that Bai Zhiyan. He was a little unconvinced, but there was nothing he could do. Quan Yan was a living example. He is not familiar with Shao Qingyuan, why should people think that he and Quan Yan are not the same group?

Therefore, General Zhou Shen agreed that the government office would be temporarily taken over by soldiers from the Southwest Battalion, and he only maintained order in the city.

It’s just that I still feel uncomfortable.

Shao Qingyuan and Gu Yundong couldn't care less about his comfort. After this matter was settled, they immediately went after Xia Qian.

Xia Qian wanted to check the traces of Bai Zhiyan's departure along the way, so the speed was a little slow.

An hour later, Shao Qingyuan and the others caught up with him at the crossroads.

However, the sky was already dark at this time, and it became difficult to chase people through the traces on the road.

They had torches in their hands, but they had to stop and go, which was a huge delay.

But they couldn't stop and rest completely, otherwise they would only get farther and farther away from Bai Zhiyan.

Gu Yundong took out the package on the horse's back and handed everyone a piece of cake.
