In the palace, the imperial study

    The emperor took the letter from the dark guard. After reading it, he was shocked at first, his eyes burst out with intense curiosity and excitement, and then he was puzzled. Finally, the excited face, then calm and thoughtful.

    Finally, he picked up the pen, "swoosh" twice, and handed it over to the leader of the dark guard, instructing him to say, "An Yi, you must send the letter in person, and it must be delivered to Jiang Zhennan in person. , and, supervise the small county for me. If anything happens, report it immediately!"

    "Yes, Your Majesty!" The leader of the dark guards in the shadows did not show any expression, but respectfully obeyed the emperor's orders.

    A desolate courtyard

    A man wearing a black mask looked down at the woman standing under the wall, and asked coldly, "Why are you looking for me this time?"

    Wen Yujing looked at this man standing on the wall, with a cold and fierce aura, which made her a little scared, but because she knew that this man couldn't do anything to her, so this fear was only will be in the bottom of my heart.

     Wen Yujing looked at this man and asked angrily, "Man with a thousand faces, where did Jiang Zhennan go missing last year? And who rescued him? It's been almost half a year, why are you still here? No answer to me!"

      !"

    He was arrogant and did not fear Wen Yujing at all.

    Wen Yujing listened, her face was blushing and pale with anger, she said very angrily, "I saved your life, it is you who promised me that you can allow me three requests. Now, you have only fulfilled one request. Is it true that there are rumors in the rivers and lakes that thousands of people keep their promises?"

    Thousand-faced people ignored the accusations and just said coldly, "Mrs. Zhenguo, you really think highly of me. I'm just a member of the middle of the rivers and lakes.

    People in all corners of the world know that I am a moody person. When I am happy, I may agree to everything.

    I am such a despicable villain.

    So, whether you keep your promise or not depends on whether the other party is worthy of me keeping the promise for the other party. "

    After hearing this, Wen Yujing was so angry that she immediately jumped up, she accused very angrily, "But Mrs. Ben saved your life! Isn't your life worth those three demands? ?"

    She was very angry on the face, but she was scared and puzzled in her heart.

    Why does this man with thousands of faces refuse to give Jiang Zhennan's information to her?

    Is this person familiar with Jiang Zhennan?

    But not right.

    Last time, one of her requests was to kill the exposed butler of the general's mansion, and not let the handle fall into Jiang Zhendi's hands, and this thousand-faced man did it.

    Why didn't this person respond to the last two requests?

    Is there something wrong here?

    Wen Yujing's heart, a thousand faces can't guess.

    Even if he could guess, he would just sneer.

    Listening to Wen Yujing's accusation, the Thousand Faced Man didn't take it to heart at all, just said lightly, "I don't need you to question whether my life is worth it. If you are dissatisfied, you can Change the request. This seat only promises you to do three things for you, but there is no promise, and I have no right to accept or refuse."

    Wen Yu jumped up and shouted, "You... you rascal!"

    Thousand Faces didn't want to talk nonsense with her, just said, "Okay. Since these two requirements have been agreed to you, I will not break my promise. It's just a matter of time."

    Wen Yujing actually wanted the answer right now.

    It's just that the man with thousands of faces refused to give it, so she just forbeared.

     Her deal with this man with thousands of faces is shameful and cannot be extended at all.

      responsible.

    It's not as simple as killing someone.

    Wen Yujing understood very well.

    So, all the clues that murdered Jiang Zhennan were dealt with by her.

    Even if Jiang Zhennan knew that she was sent by her, but there was no evidence, she could not help her.

    Only, this time Jiang Zhennan disappeared in the capital again.

    Jiang Zhennan, who disappeared in the capital this time, is known to the upper classes of the capital.

    Wen Yujing secretly guessed that the disappearance of Jiang Zhennan was probably related to the last disappearance.

    So, she urgently needs to get Jiang Zhennan's whereabouts.

     will secretly contact the Thousand Faces again, wanting an answer.

    But now...

    Wen Yujing watched the thousand-faced man flying away and disappeared in the night sky, and said bitterly, "Hmph, you insulted Mrs. Ben, Mrs. Ben wrote it down. Wait for it to be resolved. Jiang Zhennan, that wild breed, this lady will definitely repay you tenfold!"

    After she finished speaking, she looked at the black sky with sharp, poisonous eyes, and then disappeared into the night.

    Anding County

    A handsome boy in a white brocade robe and fluttering robes, riding a horse, slowly walked on the streets of the county town.

     Followed by a man dressed in gray and white, with a sword on his waist, looking at the guard, riding a brown-black horse.

    Suddenly, he turned to the son in front and said, "Master, this is Anding County! Look, it's quite lively, it's not as barren and empty as we thought. "

    People come and go, and many of them are well-dressed and their accents are not from this place at all.

    This is obviously more lively than other counties.

    The son in front stopped in front of a restaurant, squinted his eyes slightly, and the corners of his mouth outlined a certain arc, and said, "Lou Ye, tonight, we will go to this restaurant to stay. And by the way. The shopkeeper, how can I get to Linjia Village?"

    The following subordinates responded immediately, "Yes, son!"

    Then, turned over and dismounted, and walked into the restaurant.

    After a while, Lou Ye came over and said, "Sir, all the rooms in this restaurant are full, and it has been reserved for seven days before there are vacancies. You see if we are going Another inn is settled."

    Lou Ye was not too surprised that you came to my restaurant to be hot.

    Because, along the way, you come to me to the restaurant, business is very good. As long as you don't book a room in advance, don't even think about staying.

      .

    They came to this county very suddenly this time, and there was no arrangement at all, so they came here to book in advance.

    So, if you want to stay, you can either book now and wait for seven days, or you can stay at another inn.

    The young man in white looked at the plaque of you coming and going to the restaurant, a few large golden characters, shining with golden light under the sun.

     

    With the sound of "Ah", many women shouted in spite of their restraint, "Young Master, you are so handsome!"

    The young man in white didn't answer any questions about what happened, he just whispered to Lou Ye, "Lou Ye, before it gets dark, let's go to Linjia Village."

    Lou Ye listened to the master's words and looked up at the sky.

    It will be dark soon.

    They have to rush to Linjia Village before it gets dark.

    According to the front desk of this restaurant, from here to Linjia Village, it takes at least three or five hours by carriage.

    Even if they ride horses, it will take at least three hours.

    By then, it was already dark.

    However, he can only obey the master's words, he can only answer, "Yes, master!"

    Then, after passing through the county street and out of the city gate, the two hurried to the direction of Linjia Village.

    Perhaps because of the good horses, it took them two and a half hours to arrive at Linjia Village.

    Even so, when they arrived at Linjia Village, they only saw a few scattered houses in the village lit up.

    Just these few lights, after they came, they went out one after another.

    Because in the countryside, lighting a lamp is expensive.

     

    Those who practice martial arts have sharp eyes.

    Lou Ye looked at the closed house, the corners of his mouth twitched, and asked, "Master, didn't you come to find Miss Lin? This is Lin's Village, but which house is her? ah?"

    The boy in white looks a little scary in the dark, if anyone sees it.

    However, at this moment, this man didn't pay attention to his clothes at all, he just sat on the back of a horse, his sharp eyes narrowed slightly, and then he looked at a big house in the distance.

    He pointed to the big house and said, "Let's go there!"

    Lou Ye also found the big house, and asked curiously, "Master, is that big house..." Miss Lin's.

    The young man in white glanced at his subordinates, and said with some disgust, "If you want to go, go, why so much nonsense!"

    Afterwards, the figures of the two disappeared in Linjia Village, and along with the disappearance, there was the sound of hooves.

    After they left, a few houses quietly opened their doors, looking in the direction away, suddenly relieved, the nervousness relaxed, and said, "It really scared us to death. Yes. We thought it was a bandit."

    It's quiet at night, can they not hear the sound of horses' hooves?

    They are not dead.

    Only, in their village, few cattle and horses have come here, and there used to be Lin Yuelan's family.

    It's just that after Lin Yuelan became an independent village, a new road was opened up. They no longer pass through Linjia Village, so naturally they can't hear these hooves.

    So, when I heard these voices, I thought it was a robber.

    Lin Jia Yuan

    Lin Yuelan fell asleep as soon as she was about to wash up. After a long day of exhaustion, she wanted to take a good rest.

    Suddenly the housekeeper came over to report, and someone was looking outside.

    Lin Yuelan is very puzzled, so late, who is it?

    Hearing the movement, Jiang Zhennan walked out of another house.

    He said, "You don't go out yet, I'll take a look first!"
