"… That's all I heard. Since Liu Canjun is so interested in the information of the Provincial Governor's Mansion, I wonder if you can tell me why you came to Guancheng County? Or are you going to carry out a mission? "
In a house in the south of Guancheng County, Ye Fashan and Liu Rengui sat opposite each other. Ye Fashan told Liu Rengui about the information he had obtained from the Provincial Governor's Mansion. Then, he asked Liu Rengui tentatively.
Liu Rengui's eyes flashed and he suddenly looked at Ye Fashan with a smile that wasn't a smile. After looking at him for a long time, he smiled and said, "Little brother, I have already told you my identity, but I still don't know anything about you. If you recognize me as a friend, shouldn't you also introduce yourself ~?"
Ye Fashan was silent. Although Liu Rengui was not a member of Pan Zhenyue and the Cui family, he came to Guancheng County as a Bian Provincial Governor. His purpose and mission were also unknown, so the impact this person brought to the situation was uncontrollable. If he told Liu Rengui his true identity and if there was an accident, then his second uncle's family and Little Yu 'er would all be exposed.
But if Liu Rengui's purpose was the same as his, maybe he could help him out.
This was a dilemma. Ye Fashan hesitated for a long time, gritted his teeth and said, "Liu Canjun, I'm Ye Fashan from Nanyang Ye Clan!"
"Ye Fashan? Nanyang Ye Clan? "
Liu Rengui frowned. He had never heard of Ye Fashan, but he had heard of Nanyang Ye Clan because his ancestral home was Bian Province, not far from Nanyang.
"Are you really Ye Fashan? Why are you in Guancheng County? "
At this moment, a dull voice suddenly came from the side of the main hall. Even though Ye Fashan was always calm, he couldn't help but jump in fright at this moment. He turned his head to look and saw a thin old man in a black robe walking out from the right side of the side hall. After seeing the person's face clearly, Ye Fashan was really surprised and delighted!
"Wei Zuocheng? Why are you here? "
Who else could it be but Wei Zheng, who had disappeared for half a month and the Provincial Governor's Mansion was looking for him? It was because of this that Ye Fashan was both surprised and happy!
Ye Fashan had stayed in Chang 'an City for almost half a year and had met Wei Zheng a few times. For example, on New Year's Eve last year, Li Er had brought his family and many civil and military officials to Yun Mountain to watch the fireworks. Ye Fashan had met Wei Zheng once!
Although Ye Fashan had met Wei Zheng before, Wei Zheng had never paid any attention to him. However, he had heard about the Nanyang Ye family's visit to the capital last year. Therefore, when he heard Ye Fashan's introduction, Wei Zheng came out from the side hall.
Seeing Wei Zheng come out, Liu Rengui's face didn't have the slightest bit of surprise. He stood up and respectfully cupped his fists towards Wei Zheng, "Greetings, Left Minister Wei!"
Obviously, he knew that Wei Zheng was eavesdropping from the side. Or rather, this interrogation was arranged in advance!
Wei Zheng nodded and looked at Ye Fashan.
"Oh! So you know this old man! Then let me ask you, why did you come to Guancheng County? "
Seeing that Wei Zheng and Liu Rengui were obviously in cahoots, Ye Fashan no longer had any scruples in his heart. He answered truthfully, "This time, Fashan came alone. There is another person, Li Yu, a reporter from Datang Daily. I came with her. She was asked by my cousin to come to Zhengzhou to investigate the matter of the bandits causing trouble some time ago!"
"Oh? Chang 'an has received the news? "
Wei Zheng's eyes flashed and there was a hint of joy in his tone.
Ye Fashan shook his head and said, "At that time, it was just some hearsay! There was a rumor from the peddlers that there have been a lot of bandits around Zhengzhou recently. Li Yu and my cousin were worried and worried about your safety, so Li Yu and I came here! "
"I see!"
Wei Zheng nodded, then sighed and said, "Sigh! But now, Guancheng County only allows entry and not exit. You are already in deep trouble and can't extricate yourselves! Speaking of which, this old man has implicated you! "
Ye Fashan hurriedly said, "Lord Wei, you are a pillar of the country. Saving you can save millions of people. Although Fashan and Li Yu are in danger now, we have never regretted it!"
Liu Rengui couldn't help but laugh, "Brother Ye is really a bosom friend. Who in the Tang Empire doesn't know that Wei Zuocheng is a rare good official? If it weren't for this, I wouldn't have brought my men and risked my life to save Wei Zuocheng! "
Wei Zheng shook his head and said, "Saving me can save millions of people? This old man can't afford it! Looking at the whole world, other than the current emperor, I'm afraid only your cousin, Duke Yong 'an, has the ability to save millions of people! "
Ye Fashan was speechless. He was quite convinced of his cousin's abilities.
After a long pause, Ye Fashan looked at Wei Zheng and asked, "Wei Zuocheng, Fashan heard from Liu Canjun that when the bandits caused trouble in the city, he was the one who led the troops to save you ~? What exactly happened? Can you tell me ~? "
Wei Zheng smiled and looked at Liu Rengui, "This question, you should ask Liu Canjun yourself!"
After Liu Rengui heard about Ye Fashan's background, he let his guard down. He grinned and said, "Hehe! Actually, this is nothing! At the beginning of last month, I suddenly received a transfer order from the Provincial Governor of Bian Province. He asked me to bring 200 elite troops and sneak into Guancheng County. There was only one purpose, and that was to secretly protect Wei Zuocheng!
At that time, I was still doubtful about this transfer order. However, the Provincial Governor told me that this was the order of the Pacification Commissioner. I didn't dare to disobey. So, I chose the elite troops and sneaked into Guancheng County!
On the fifteenth day of the previous month, hundreds of bandits entered the city in batches and suddenly went on a rampage, injuring thousands of people and charging into the magistrate's office. Although the Imperial Guards brought by Wei Zuocheng were well-trained, they were outnumbered and all died!
While the bandits and the Imperial Guards were fighting, I knocked Wei Zuocheng unconscious and secretly hid in the tunnel of the Shing Wong Temple! After a few days, the storm calmed down. Then, we quietly returned to the surface and stayed in the house that we had previously bought! However, just in case, Wei Zuocheng still hides in the tunnel during the day! "
Ye Fashan listened and couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. Then, he asked doubtfully, "Liu Canjun, how did you find out about the tunnel in the Shing Wong Temple?"
Liu Rengui smiled and said, "This tunnel wasn't originally there. As the saying goes, dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and mice give birth to children! Among my subordinates, there are two brothers. Their ancestors were very famous tomb raiders, so it's naturally easy for them to dig a section of the tunnel! "
