"As for the inn, General Li has already ordered the soldiers of the Bing Province Barracks to surround the area one li around the inn. All the entrances and exits have been heavily guarded to prevent the Turkic spies from coming out and causing trouble!"
At the Taiyuan Courier Station, Iron Egg cupped his hands at Mo Huai and replied.
"Mm! It's good to seal it off! Otherwise, these Turkic spies will stir up trouble in the city again and cause chaos in the city! "
Mo Chui nodded and praised. He knew that a portion of the people in Taiyuan City had been looting the official rations yesterday afternoon.
He hesitated for a moment before asking, "Qing Que … how is Qing Que now? Is there any news? "
"No!"
Iron Egg shook his head and said, "Yesterday afternoon, I was using binoculars to observe the inn from the south gate. Perhaps it was because it was too far away or because Qing Que was staying in the guest room on the north side of the inn, so I didn't see her through the binoculars! Moreover, the inn is surrounded by Turkic spies. It's very difficult for General Li's men to get close! We can only act according to circumstances! "
Mo Chui's face became worried. Privately, Li Tai was one of the most outstanding students in Yanhuang College. As a teacher, he naturally didn't want anything to happen to him. Publically, Li Tai was the Great Tang's King Wei and one of Li Tai's most beloved princes. He naturally didn't dare to let anything happen to Li Tai. After a moment of silence, Mo Chui sighed and said,
"It's good that there's no news now. As long as the leader of the Turkic spies is still in the hands of the officials, Qing Que will be safe. We can only slowly wait for an opportunity! But this way, we don't know how long Taiyuan City will have to seal the city gates. Also, we don't know if the rations in the city can last until we rescue Qing Que? "
"Sir, you don't have to worry about the rations!"
Iron Egg cupped his hands and said, "According to what this student knows, the rations in the city's official storehouse are still sufficient. When the rations are running low, we can use the telegraph to ask the Flaming Yellow Chamber of Commerce to help mobilize rations from the nearby counties to reinforce the city!"
"Mm! Iron Egg, you're right. When the time comes, we can still borrow the strength of the Yan Huang Chamber of Commerce! "
Hearing this, Ink Chui recalled that they still had the telegraph to send news to the outside world, and they also had the huge resources of the Yan Huang Chamber of Commerce to make use of.
"In addition, General Li also caught two Turkic spies who tried to break into the prison last night. These two were the leaders of the Turkic spies. One was in the Guru Realm, and the other was at the peak of the Qi Refining Stage. Now, the strength of the Turkic spies in the inn has been greatly reduced!"
Seeing Mo Chui heave a sigh of relief, Iron Egg told Mo Chui another piece of good news. Hearing this, Mo Chui was overjoyed. "What? Last night, General Li even captured two leaders of the Turkic spies? Wait, are you saying that someone broke into the prison last night? "
After the pleasant surprise came the horror. Mo Chui did not expect that someone would attempt to break out of the prison last night. He knew that Zhao Deyan was imprisoned in the state capital's prison. Just think about it, if Zhao Deyan was taken away, then wouldn't Li Tai's little life be in danger?
Thinking of this, a layer of cold sweat appeared on Mo Chui's back.
Iron Egg smiled and said, "Mr. Mo Chui, there's no need to be nervous. The other party failed to break out of the prison and even lost themselves. You'd better ask my father about the details! It's getting late, I have to go to the Provincial Governor's Residence! "
Iron Egg caught a glimpse of the redness in the eastern sky. Only then did he remember that he was going to find Li Junxian. He hurriedly excused himself from Mo Chui and rushed out of the courtyard.
… … …
Tongfu Inn, Heavenly Guest Room. Li Tai had also woken up early. * Cough * Most importantly, he had gone to bed early at night, so his sleepiness had long disappeared. If this was the academy, the little fatty would definitely still be snoring away!
There was no other way. The Academy had the "evening self-study", and the dormitory was crowded and lively. The students generally slept relatively late, and Li Tai was no exception.
"Hmm? That fellow still hasn't returned? "
After getting out of bed, Li Tai subconsciously went to the outer room to search, but he didn't see Xuan Ye. His heart thumped, and he couldn't help but mutter, "That's right, I didn't see Xuan Ye or Tianying last night. Did the two of them not return last night?"
Li Tai's face was covered in pleasant surprise. His mind whirled as he muttered to himself, "For the two of them to disappear last night is definitely abnormal. They can't be up to anything good! But since the two of them still haven't returned, there's an eighty percent chance that they've been trapped or captured by the soldiers! Ha! In that case, aren't these Turkic spies a bunch of dragons without a leader? This king is saved! "
After being held hostage by the Turkic spies for several days, Li Tai had basically figured out the "personnel structure" here. He knew that this group of people was led by Zhao Deyan, and Xuan Ye and Tianying were Zhao Deyan's most capable generals. Not only were the two of them powerful in martial arts, they were also above average in terms of intelligence. They were extremely difficult opponents to deal with!
With the two of them around, Li Tai could only obediently be an "obedient child", not daring to make any small movements. This was because he knew that his small movements wouldn't escape the eyes of Xuan Ye and Tianying!
However, it was very likely that the two of them would not be able to return. Didn't that mean that Li Tai's opportunity had arrived?
"Let's go out and see if they really didn't return last night …"
After thinking for a while, Li Tai looked in the direction of the door, hesitated for a moment, and then walked out.
"… In my opinion, we should capture King Wei and negotiate with the soldiers to have them release the two leaders. Otherwise, we'll slaughter that little fatty!"
As Li Tai approached the door and was about to open it, he heard a rough voice coming from the hall on the first floor of the inn.
Li Tai recognized this voice. It was none other than Twilight Flood Dragon, who had been guarding his door last night!
Li Tai's heart tightened. It turned out that this group of Turkic spies had been having a 'meeting' early in the morning to discuss how to deal with him?
But he soon relaxed, because Twilight Flood Dragon's words just now had confirmed his conjecture. Xuan Ye and Tianying really were in trouble!
