Chapter 423, Yan Ying
The day after Daohua arrived at Taohua Temple, Xiao Yeyang came.
"Are you OK?"
Xiao Yeyang pulled Daohua in front of him, looked down, and made sure that she was not injured, and then relieved, and then couldn't help but say, "You said you, you didn't want to run away when you encountered an assassination. Instead, he rushed upwards. What if something goes wrong?"
Daohua wore two dark circles under her eyes, and her expression was a little daunted: "You think I think, who made me so unlucky to run into it? If you don't help solve the people in black, what if they kill them afterwards? "
Seeing Daohua's lack of energy, Xiao Yeyang knew that what happened yesterday must have scared her, so he took her hand and calmly said, "Okay, it's okay. I sent someone to the place where the incident occurred, and promised not to let anyone else follow. Found any clues."
Daohua quickly said: "Are you sure you won't let the people behind the man in black come to Taohua Village? Wouldn't they let them discover that I was involved? In the script, killers like the man in black, but omnipotent."
When I went to bed last night, there was a scene in her mind of the man in black chasing and killing Taohua Village, or the scene of the man in black finding the Yan family and exterminating the Yan family. She was frightened. She dared not sleep all night.
Xiao Yeyang laughed a little: "You've already said that it's a story. If the killer is really omnipotent, it won't be a mess in the world. Okay, well, the matter is over. Don't think about it."
Speaking, he paused, looking at Daohua with some helplessness.
"Yesterday’s incident reminded me a bit. You guy’s luck, I don’t know whether to say good or bad. Last time, I tied the emperor and five masters. This time I was assassinated by the dead man again. The frequency is too high, so I will put someone by your side."
Daohua was not very concentrated, she didn't hear Xiao Yeyang's words clearly, and nodded indiscriminately. After nodding, she asked with hindsight, "Who are you going to put by my side?"
Xiao Yeyang: "Of course it is someone who can protect you."
Daohua's eyes lit up and she nodded repeatedly. If it were before, she would definitely not want it, but after experiencing yesterday's events, she realized that she didn't even have anyone available in her hands.
Qin Xiaoliu and Wang Man'er are also able to deal with ordinary affairs, like yesterday's emergency, the two are already helping her not to be confused.
Not long after, the dark guard sent out by Xiao Yeyang to erase the traces returned.
In order to completely relieve Daohua, Xiao Yeyang brought Daohua to see the dark guard.
The dark guard repeatedly assured that all traces of yesterday's fight had been wiped out and would not be found by others. Only then did Daohua's tension relax.
Even though the master had gone to clean up yesterday, but he is not professional, she still has some worries in her heart.
"What do you think of the dark guard just now?" After the dark guard went down, Xiao Yeyang asked Daohua.
Daohua hesitated: "Very good, but that is what you are used to. You gave it to me, will you no one use it?"
Xiao Yeyang smiled faintly: "You can feel good, I am more than a dark guard."
Daohua didn’t push, she thought for a while and said, “When I was okay the other day, I made up some pills. I’ll get you some.”
Xiao Yeyang has become accustomed to the practice of returning something back every time Daohua receives something, and smiled and nodded: "Okay, it just happens to be more useful recently."
Daohua returned to the house and took out a lot of bottles and cans, put them in a cloth bag, and handed them directly to Xiao Yeyang: "The usage and efficacy are all written on the bottles."
Xiao Yeyang took the cloth bag, glanced at it, and handed it to Defu behind him to hold it.
Ina Flower sat down again and asked, "How did you find the gold mine?"
Speaking of the gold mine, the smile on Xiao Yeyang's face slowly reduced: "We have searched almost all of the three prefectures and eighteen counties under the rule of Ningmen Mansion, but there is still no news."
Daohua said again: "A few days ago, my father asked me if you and my third and fourth brothers were looking for something. I told him about the gold mine."
Hearing this, Xiao Yeyang did not react too much: "Uncle Yan is the prefect of Ningmen Mansion, and he knows it will happen sooner or later."
Daohua: "My father said that Jiang's family also found things, and Duanwang's people also appeared in Ningmen Mansion."
Xiao Yeyang froze for a moment, and then smiled: "Uncle Yan’s news is very good. The person who brought Uncle Wang came to Ningmen Mansion. I only learned about it two days ago."
Daohua tentatively said: "They are all looking for gold mines, right?"
Xiao Yeyang didn't hide it, and nodded.
Daohua's face changed, and she asked, "Are they looking for themselves or helping the emperor?"
Xiao Ye’s eyes flickered: "This, only they know about it."
Hearing this answer, Daohua's heart jumped involuntarily, and she was silent for a while, looking at Xiao Yeyang: "Since the Jiang family and Duanwang are both looking for gold mines, then don't look for them."
"no!"
As soon as Daohua's voice fell, a slightly weak voice came from outside the door.
Daohua and Xiao Yeyang turned their heads and saw Wu Jingyi walked in with the help of one of his subordinates. Before sitting down, they heard him say: "We are not only looking for it, but also faster than them, especially to catch up. Before Duan Wang."
After Wu Jingyi sat down in the hall, not long after, Gu Jian came over.
Looking at Daohua and Xiao Yeyang, Gu Jian turned his gaze to Wu Jingyi: "What did you mean by that just now?"
Wu Jingyi glanced at Daohua. Seeing that neither Gu Jian nor Xiao Yeyang had any intention of letting her leave, he said, "The gold mine in Ningmen Mansion has been discovered by King Duan a long time ago. Originally, he wanted to occupy it. For the existing, it was mined privately, but unfortunately, the people under the sect leaked the news."
"Now that both the emperor and the Jiang family know about this, King Duan knows that it is impossible to own a gold mine anymore, so he wants to dedicate the gold mine to the emperor to take this credit and return to the court."
Hearing this, Xiao Yeyang and Gu Jian's expressions changed. Daohua didn't understand the affairs of the court, so she sat aside and didn't speak.
Wu Jingyi continued: "Now the situation in the north is unstable, and wars are happening frequently, but the treasury can't come up with food and payment. If the king really wants to openly offer the gold mine, it is tantamount to alleviating the urgent need of the court."
"At this time, if King Duan’s party members propose to let King Duan return to the court, the emperor will not be easy to refuse."
"Duan Wang Langzi's ambitions have been watching the throne. These years, even if he has been guarding the imperial tombs, he has not tripped the emperor. I really want to return him to the court. It is a disaster for the great summer."
Xiao Yeyang puzzled: "Since Uncle Duan has known about the gold mine early in the morning, how do we stop it?"
Wu Jingyi's mouth twitched, revealing a hint of ridicule: "Although King Duan has been winking people's hearts over the years, the emperor is the ruler of the world, and many of those who followed him have swayed from side to side."
"The person who discovered the gold mine did not directly tell the king of the gold mine, but wanted to report it to the emperor, and took the opportunity to come over. Unfortunately, something happened halfway and was arrested by the Jiang family."
Gu Jian's eyes narrowed: "In other words, there are three parties looking for gold mines, Jiang's family, King Duan, and people from the emperor's side."
Wu Jingyi nodded: "The ancients are right, but if the gold mine is found by the Jiang family, with the Queen Mother’s shrewdness, the Jiang family should not dare to do treason. They will choose to hand in the gold mine just like King Duan. In this way, the Jiang family's prestige in the court is bound to rise again."
"If it is found by King Duan, it would be even more inconsistent with the emperor's wishes. That's why I said, we must look for gold mines before them."
"Now the people of King Duan have arrived at Ningmen Mansion. In order to prevent them from looking for gold mines, I have had several confrontations with them."
Speaking of this, Wu Jingyi smiled and looked at Daohua: “It’s still time to say thank you to the girl. If it wasn’t for you yesterday, I’m afraid I’m going to confess here.”
Speaking, he took a piece of jade pendant from his waist and handed it over.
"If the girl encounters any difficulties in the future, even if she speaks, if Wu can handle it, she will definitely help it."
Daohua looked at Gu Jian and then at Xiao Yeyang, but did not receive the jade pendant.
Gu Jian: "What can she do for a little girl." As he said, he glanced at Daohua and motioned to her to pick up Yupei.
A promise made by the captain of the Five Armies is still very important. Regardless of whether it is useful or not, I will first get it and talk about it.
Daohua received the master's signal, got up and picked up the jade pendant.
After , Wu Jingyi talked to Xiao Yeyang about looking for a gold mine, but Daohua didn't listen any more, she left the house, and as soon as she came out, she saw the hidden guard standing in the yard.
"Subordinate Anqi has seen the master." After speaking, he knelt on one knee to Daohua.
Daohua was surprised: ". Do you know you will follow me in the future?"
The dark guard nodded: "Duke Fu has already informed his subordinates."
Daohua was silent for a while, and thought for a while: "Following me may not have a future with Xiao Yeyang, but don't worry, I will compensate you with silver."
Um?
The dark guard was stunned, and raised his eyes to look at the new master. He was a little surprised. He didn't expect the new master to say this the first time he spoke.
was assigned, there was no unwillingness in his heart.
As dark guards, they put their heads on the waistband every day. There is no future at all. Following a master who doesn't do much, to be honest, it is their blessing to be dark guards.
If other guards knew about him, how many people would be envious.
Inaka sees the dark guard kneeling: "Get up and talk."
The dark guard quickly glanced at Dahua and stood up.
Daohua: "Your name is Anqi?"
The dark guard nodded: "This is the subordinate's code name."
Ina Flower: "Then what's your name?"
The dark guard shook his head: "The subordinates have only code names, no names." The tone was very calm, as if he had already accepted his fate for this.
They have been intensively trained since they were young, and their parents and relatives can't remember where they are.
Daohua was silent for a while: "You will call Yan Ying from now on."
The dark guard glanced at Dahua again, bending over and saying, "Thank you, the lord for the name."
Hearing a movement from behind, Inahua said, "Retreat."
The dark guard nodded, and disappeared into the yard with a ‘swish’.
