The Life Through Books of the Salted Fish Family

Chapter 709: Arrest Operation 1

The so-called steward is the prison officer in the quarry.

This time they went south to buy grain. In order to compete for the position of the steward, they almost put everything they had learned in their lives into practice. They compared their place of origin, their friends, and their business...

Compete at all levels and finally win.

 It’s not easy!

 Fortunately, the result was good. After working in the quarry for many years, I only dreamed of returning to my hometown. I never expected that I would actually have the opportunity to go back and take a look.

Even if it is just an errand and you return home immediately after finishing it, even just a glimpse of it is enough to soothe your soul.

“Guanshi Xu, Guanshi Lu, and Guanshi Fan, can you see the young master holding on to the eaves of the boat over there?”

Three stewards looked out through the angled windows at the same time.

“Like Mr. Cui, he also suffers from seasickness.” Manager Lu squinted his eyes and judged.

Manager Fan: "Huh? He looks kind-hearted."

Steward Xu had poor eyesight and could not see clearly, but he commented on the things on the ship: "There are many servants guarding me. They must be traveling from a wealthy family. Well, those guards are very vigilant. Judging from their positions, except for the young master, , the host family has a lot of people..."

“Ouch!” The Haiguan who spoke first was so anxious that he lowered his voice and said, “Don’t you think that young master looks like... like the one from Xizhou in Beijing?!”

 “His! You mean...”

"Hai Guanshi, this, this, if this is true, it's a big deal!"

 At any rate, Guanshi Xu couldn’t see clearly, so he was the calmest and said, “It’s also a great achievement!”

 Guanshi Hai looked at him and said anxiously: "Guanshi Xu, do you want to inform the Second Young Master?"

“If it is really that person, we will not report the knowledge and will conduct a review afterwards... Don’t forget who we are at this time. Our family, family and friends are all in their hands. How dare we hide it from each other?”

 …

I feel really sleepy and someone gives me a pillow.

Yan Yu was worrying about what excuse he could use to track down the people on this boat.

hey-hey! Several stewards actually gave her such a surprise.

　　That's right, that's right. They are all officials who were exiled from the capital. They heard that the Prince of Xizhou had many friends in the capital, so it was not surprising for them to know him.

 Hai Guanshi: "Calculating the time, after leaving Beijing, taking the sea route, traveling to Guanzhou and entering the port, it will probably be this time."

Road manager: "Among the several routes from Beijing to Xizhou, Zhongzhui Guanzhou is the longest, but it is also the least likely to be detected. The sea is vast, and the area around Gufengle Mountain is full of steep mountains."

Fan Guanshi: "The two ships are quite far apart, so we can't see accurately. We are just guessing, but in this matter, we would rather be wrong than let it go."

 Xu Guanshi: “Everything depends on the second young master.”

Yan Yu said with a smile: "Guan Shi Fan's words deeply touched my heart. I would rather kill the wrong person than let go of this kind of thing. Hehe, is it true? I will catch up and find out. The ship stopped at the port first. A few of them You don’t have to go with me to manage things, just comfort the people on our ship.”

"Second Young Master, please don't worry, we will arrange everything properly." Manager Fan responded after being named.

 Yan Yu, whom they called the second young master of the Yan family, left.

 Guanshi Fan looked up with a happy face.

“Guanshi Fan’s ability to figure out people’s hearts is far inferior to mine. I admire him!”

“Yes! I don’t want the second young master of the Yan family to be so young and so murderous.”

"He can train village boys into boy scouts, who can walk vigorously and obey orders and prohibitions. When he is a book boy like us, he can never leave his body with a crossbow, is literate, and can do math... The second young master of the Yan family is not called the little general for nothing."

 The prince of Qi was very cunning, and he brought many people out of the capital.

 Even got myself two stand-ins!

If it weren't for the fact that there was a cat on the boat that kept watching, Yan Yu would have had a hard time telling which one was real and which one was fake!

One of them got off the ship at the port with many guards. Yan Yu called him Substitute No. 1. No. 1 had sharp eyes and an imposing manner. He looked like a noble prince, but in fact he was under the supervision of Jiuxiao and Maomao. , revealing that the No. 1 stand-in is extremely healthy, with tight muscle texture, thin and powerful, a short blade on his waist, a dagger in his boots, a pair of sleeve arrows attached to his left arm, and even four hidden arrows in his bun. Long needle…

Yan Yu identified No. 1 as a dangerous person.

 Be regarded as a higher priority target than the Crown Prince of Qi!

Unexpectedly, No. 1 got off the boat first, led a group of guards into Pingbo Town, and then went straight to the carriage house.

 After renting carriages and horses, the group walked along the official road. No. 1 sat in the carriage and rarely showed his face.

Stand-in No. 2 is the one who suffers from seasickness and can't even walk smoothly. If Yan Yu hadn't known the inside story, he would have thought that he was so weak that he needed two servants to help him walk. The truth is, this No. 2 is unlucky, it seems. He was brought here unwillingly by the Crown Prince of Qi, and the servants around him were called servants, but in fact they controlled him.

Hand No. 2 has no power to tie a chicken. Judging from the images sent back from Jiuxiao, the Crown Prince of Qi has allowed him to get along with his wife and children. Yan Yu guesses that Hand No. 2 will travel with the Crown Prince of Qi and his wife and young son. There are many servants and women. If the prince of Qi hides among them, it will be better to hide his traces.

 I don’t know whether he is traveling together or separately.

This man is really thoughtful, and it is really strange that he has two substitutes.

Yan Yu decided to chase No. 1 first and wait for the opportunity to strike.

As for Prince Qi and Substitute No. 2 on the ship, she was not worried. Maomao was still there and could not escape them.

Moreover, the Prince of Qi was careful about the pick-up place he had set in Fei Ge's letter. Her father, Mr. Yan, had already led people to hang around there, waiting for him to come to his door!

 …

Yan Laoer looked at the map in his hand, and then looked at the nearby mountain topography.

 That’s right, this is the place.

“General Banner, are there really bandits around here?”

 “The news is reliable!” Yan Laoer said seriously.

 “Then why is there no shadow?” Wang Dalang asked doubtfully.

 They have searched very carefully, and they really can't see any stronghold on this mountain.

Just when Yan Laoer was about to fool him again, Sun Da quickly ran over.

“General Banner, over there, the Xizhou Army is coming!”

Yan Laoer's eyes lit up and he calmed his voice: "Don't be impatient. Speak slowly. How many people are here, on horseback? Are there many horses?"

Sun Da thought about it carefully and said: "There are about a hundred people, riding horses, and carriages. It's strange, why are there still carriages?"

Yan Laoer laughed loudly and said: "Brothers, Fufa is here! With cavalry escort, there must be some great people in that carriage! Let's not get rid of our bandits, let's eat them first for this group of Xizhou Army!"

Luo Da had a calm temper and said with some hesitation: "General Banner, we came to suppress the bandits, but we attacked the Xizhou Army. Is this appropriate?"

"What's inappropriate? No one has seen it in the wilderness. It's not like we haven't been beaten before. Your father has been talking to me these days, saying that the stone quarry is too slow. Look, this stone is broken. Don’t we have a lot of people! More than a hundred strong laborers!”

Luo Da thought about how his father kept talking about not having enough rocks every day and was led astray by him, and he actually felt that what Yan Laoer said made sense.

Then...just do it!

In fact, I finished writing this chapter yesterday. I logged in today and looked at it. Damn it, I forgot to post~┭┮﹏┭┮~

   Another chapter will be posted before 0 o’clock, so I’ll bow down o(╥﹏╥)o
