Chapter 2024: Hunted in the city!

Chapter 1826 The whole city is hunted!

"Ju Shi, the king's secret guards came out, and the merchants and servants all

over the city were also moved by the wind. Taiyuan City is about to be chaotic

now!"

Taiyuan city and the back hall of the prefectural governor.

An old man in a scribe's costume arched his hands toward the imposing middle-

aged man in official uniform.

This middle-aged man is the provincial governor Wang Liaoyuan. When Li Zexuan

intercepted Witches at Longmenguan, he borrowed soldiers and horses from him!

"Wang's secret guard came out?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Liaoyuan frowned slightly, and couldn't help asking:

"What has happened to make the Wang's secret guards come out and make such a

big noise?"

Although Wang Liaoyuan is a descendant of the royal family of Taiyuan, he is

now an official of the state governor, which represents the imperial court.

Suddenly all of the hidden guards of the Wang family were exposed to the

public, and such a big fight made him very difficult for a while!

The scribe said: "This old man doesn't know! I just heard that the Wang family

seems to be searching for two people in the city. One is a Turkic businessman

who has just arrived in Taiyuan two days ago. It seems to be Zhu Hongsheng,

and the other is Kang Changan, the behind-the-scenes proprietor of Chu Ji

Ironware Shop. !"

Upon hearing this, Wang Liaoyuan became more and more puzzled. He murmured: "A

Turkic merchant, a proprietor of an iron shop, what is the Wang family looking

for?"

After pondering for a moment, Wang Liaoyuan stood up and said, "Let someone

prepare a car, this officer will go to Wang's ancestral house!"

He just heard that Wang Yu had just returned to Taiyuan today, so he could

meet him.

At this moment, a sergeant came in outside the door and hugged Wang Liaoyuan

in the hall and said: "Reporting to the governor, the Patriarch of the Wang

family sent a letter, saying that you must personally open it!"

"Oh? Present it!"

Wang Liaoyuan's expression moved, and he quickly ordered the sergeant.

"Here!"

The sergeant stepped forward and handed the letter to Wang Liaoyuan with both

hands. Wang Liaoyuan accepted it. Seeing that the letter was still sealed with

flame paint, he couldn't help but look solemn, and did not open the letter

immediately. Wang Liaoyuan said to the sergeant: "Go down now! "

"Here!"

The sergeant left.

Only then did Wang Liaoyuan open the letter, but seeing that there were only a

few words on the letter, but Wang Liaoyuan's expression suddenly became more

solemn.

The scribe next to him couldn't help but curiously said, "Assassin, what do

you say in the letter of the Wang Family Patriarch?"

Wang Liaoyuan immediately put away the letter and said with his hand: "The

imperial guards of the royal family are dispatched and ordered to go down, so

that the state government officials should not act rashly, let alone obstruct

them. Everything is as usual. What should I do!"

"Inspired by the court?"

The old scholar of scribes was startled when he heard the words, and when he

reacted, he hurriedly said: "Oh, yes!"

After that, he turned and left.

Wang Yu expected that the Wang family was going to fight such a big fight, and

the governor's mansion would definitely receive news and take action, so he

would write a letter to Wang Liaoyuan.

However, in this letter, he did not give too much explanation, nor did he ask

Wang Liaoyuan to dispatch the government officials to help find people

together, because it is related to the safety of Li Tai and others and the

Turkic spies. Naturally, the fewer people who know, the better. , Dugu Feiying

can keep him strictly confidential. Furthermore, in terms of the ability to

find people in Taiyuan City, the power of the Wang Family is far beyond that

of the Cishi Mansion. It is because there is no need to let the officials of

the State Mansion come to this muddy water!

However, although Wang Yu's letter was extremely simple, Wang Liaoyuan could

also realize from the words that it was absolutely extraordinary. As for the

specifics, it was difficult for him to guess what was unusual.

"This city of Taiyuan, I'm afraid it will not be peaceful soon~!"

Wang Liaoyuan stood with his hand in his hand, murmured with emotion.

…………………………………………

Yi Temple, south of Taiyuan City.

The so-called Yi Temple is the Chenghuang Temple. In ancient times, as long as

there was a city, there was a Chenghuang Temple. It is the opposite of the

Earth Temple. The Earth Temple is built in a remote rural area, and the

Chenghuang Temple must be a place with a city pool, so it is The superior of

the Earth Temple.

The earliest Chenghuang Temple was called Yi Temple. In the Southern and

Northern Dynasties, Murong Yan, a famous general of the Northern Qi Dynasty,

fought against Liang Jun near the Yi Temple. He didn't want the gods in the Yi

Temple to help Murong Yan defeat Liang Jun. Since then, the Yi Temple has been

flourishing and famous. After the Tang Dynasty, as the internal strife in the

Tang Dynasty subsided and the external disturbances cleared, the border

gradually stabilized and the people gradually lived and worked in peace and

contentment, the court began to build temples in various places, and from this

time onwards, the Yi Temple was renamed the Chenghuang Temple.

The folk worship of the city gods began to flourish during the Tang and Song

dynasties. The Song Dynasty even listed the city ** offerings as national

ceremonies. In the Ming dynasty, it was even more important. Not only did the

city worship the gods of the world, but also the highest rank. The Chenghuang

God was regarded as the "Supervision Division Xianyou King", and his position

was the first grade, and he was equal to the Taishi, Taifu, Taibao "San Gong"

and the right and left prime ministers of the imperial court.

Taiyuan City is the largest city in the northern part of the Tang Dynasty.

Although the folks have not yet widely adopted the custom of worshiping the

city gods at this time, there is still a city ** temple in Taiyuan. Oh, it

should still be called the Yi Temple at this time!

At this moment, under the incense table where the gods are enshrined in the

temple, there are actually two people hidden. To be precise, they are two men.

One of them is wide and fat, with a rich face and a chubby belly. The other is

of a tall figure. Not very fat, but can’t hold him tall. The incense table

dedicated to the gods is only more than two feet high. He can only sit on the

ground with his knees hugging his knees like an aggrieved little daughter-in-

law. As a result, if he can't stretch his body vertically, he can only stretch

his body horizontally!

But don’t forget, there is a big fat man with a wide body and a big waist

squatting beside him. This incense table enshrining the gods is not only

limited in vertical space, but also in horizontal space! He sat on the ground

with his legs in his arms, and the two immediately squeezed together back to

back. At this time it was the end of July. Although the midsummer was over,

this autumn tiger did not forgive anyone at all. After a while, both of them

were sweated by the heat!

"Zhu Xiesheng! Did your special mother reveal his whereabouts on purpose?"

At this moment, the tall middle-aged man couldn't help but rushed to the big

fat man beside him angrily.

The fatter middle-aged man next to him turned his head and cried out

injustice: "Boss Kang, what you said is wrong? What is it that I deliberately

leaked my whereabouts? What good will I do for me? I am being chased now. Not

only you, but also me!"

Looking at the face of this middle-aged man, it is surprisingly Zhu Hongsheng

who went from Tongfu Inn to Chuji Ironware Shop this morning, and then

disappeared without a trace. Oh, it seems that his real name should be Zhu

Xiesheng! Dugu Feiying really did not guess wrong, this guy's surname is Zhu

Xie, from the Shatuo tribe of Turkic!

In this way, the identity of the other man is ready to be revealed-Kang

Changan, behind the scenes of Chu Ji Ironware Shop!

Now that the Wang family mobilized all the forces in the open and secret areas

to search for the two of them in the whole city, who would have thought that

they would hide in the temple in the south of the city?

"Huh! Is there anything else you are hiding from me? Otherwise, how could

there be so many people in Taiyuan city tracking our whereabouts?"

Kang Changan snorted, dissatisfied.

Zhu Xiesheng smiled bitterly and said: "This... Boss Kang is joking, where did

I hide something from you, and this time I came to Taiyuan City, I did not

provoke anyone? How could someone follow you today? I am trapped here, and

there are people staring at the gates of the four directions in secret. How

should this be good!"

Speaking of this, Zhu Xiesheng wiped the sweat from his forehead with a bitter

expression on his face.

It is said that after they quietly escaped from Chuji Ironware Shop, it was

not that they had never thought of leaving the city gate, but when they first

walked to the South City Gate, Zhu Xiesheng happened to see a familiar face,

and it was the morning that followed him to the ironware shop. Those two

people! At that time, Zhu Xiesheng's souls were all gone, and he hurriedly

pulled Kang Changan to get out of other city gates, but it didn't take long

before there were many black warriors on the streets of Taiyuan City. They

searched from house to house and seemed to be looking for it. There were two

people with a guilty conscience, and they quickly dodged around. Later, by

eavesdropping in the corner, they confirmed that the black warriors were

looking for them!

For a time, Zhu Xiesheng and Kang Changan went all the way to hide from Tibet

in order to avoid the search, and finally hid in this temple and under the

incense case!

"Huh! Isn't it all you killed? I knew that, the old man shouldn't let you in

this morning!"

Kang Changan snorted, depressed.

Zhu Xiesheng said helplessly: "Oh! Boss Kang, can't you say that? We have

cooperated many times and we have been in peace. Who knows that this time we

were discovered? It's just that I'm a little strange, why are we hunting for

us? Not a member of the Tang Yamen, but the guard of the Wang family?"

This is a bit true, a bit false, I am afraid only he knows it!

"You don't know, where do I know? But if the people in the yamen are okay, as

far as I know, the king's family in Taiyuan City is more powerful than the

yamen. We want to get out of the city now, even if it is more difficult than

climbing to the sky. "

Kang Changan rolled his eyes. He seemed to be very dissatisfied with Zhu

Xiesheng, and he didn't even bother to look at the other side.

There was silence in this small space under the incense case.

"Cuckoo~!"

At this moment, a strange sound suddenly sounded between the two of them.

Then, Kang Changan turned his head and looked at Zhu Xiesheng strangely. Of

course, from this angle, he could not see Zhu Xiesheng’s face, only Can see

the chubby belly of the other party.

Zhu Xiesheng noticed Kang Changan's movements and rubbed his stomach a little

embarrassedly, and said: "Ahem! This one fled and didn't attend to dinner at

noon. Boss Kang laughed!"

Hearing this ~www.mtlnovel.com~ Kang Changan was speechless.

After a pause, Zhu Xiesheng licked his face and said, "Boss Kang, it's not a

problem for us to hide here. There is no food, no water to drink, and we can't

wait to be caught by the Wang family. Starved to death or thirsty! You have so

many ideas, help think of a way!"

"Think of a way? Now the entire Taiyuan city is from the Wang family. It would

be nice if we could have a place to live. Where else can we go? For this plan,

we can only wait!"

Kang Changan has no good air.

What Zhu Xiesheng said, did he not know? It's just that he has been doing

business in Taiyuan for many years, and he knows how powerful the Wang family

has in Taiyuan City. With the two of them, wanting to escape under the full

pursuit of the Wang family is no different from wishful thinking!

"Perhaps...perhaps the person who warned us in the iron shop earlier might

help us~!"

Suddenly, Kang Changan said for no reason.
