Qiu Ji and the other two were chased by the flames for about a quarter of an hour, and finally opened some distance. Wei Zha did not dare to relax. Just as he was desperate to shake the whip, he stopped when he saw Qiu Ji.

Wei Zha said anxiously: "Young Master, hurry up and leave. The fire is too fierce and I can't go back."

Qiu Ji jumped off his horse and stepped on the ground, "It can't be burned."

Wei Zha looked at the horse's legs and saw that the snow had been flooded three or four inches. He jumped off the horse, his feet immediately fell into it, and he dug a hole in the snow with no need to dig anything. Then he felt completely relieved.

"Young Master, I am willing to put in such a great effort to rob the prison. Is it a remnant of the Muanshan Uprising Army?"

Qiu Ji took a look at the fire that had spread to the hills on both sides. These people paved at least two kilometers of grease and grass on this road. Such a time-consuming and labor-consuming project was simply impossible for the rebels far away in Mu'anshan. Moreover, the entire village had been captured by him, so someone else was robbed.

"Go back first." Qiu Ji got on the horse again. Since he had no time to notify Mu Bai, he could only go back first.

Wei Zha said worriedly: "Young Master, we have made great contributions when we go back this time, but now it's better. If we really kidnap Guan Ba ​​and the other two, we're afraid that the heroes will become criminals when we go back."

The wind and snow were getting smaller, and the two of them were driving faster. When they reached halfway, a fast horse was galloping towards them, shouting "Doway". The arrival of people was like lightning. Qiu Ji and Wei Zha hurriedly made way, and only felt a cold wind whistling by the snow. In the blink of an eye, the horse was already three feet away.

Wei Zha said angrily: "This is a person from Jingzhao Mansion. It's fine if you don't stop asking for gifts. You dare to shout at the young master. This is enough for him to commit suicide. I'll write down the people and settle the score with him again."

Qiu Ji frowned, "This horse is a thousand-mile horse in Jingzhao Mansion---- something must have happened in the yamen."

Wei Zha was shocked, "I don't know what's going on in the post station ahead, what happened to Jingzhao Mansion?"

"Mubai sent out a hundred people to meet this time. There are not many guards left in Jingzhao Mansion. This group of people chose to take such a big risk. What do you think they want to do?" Qiu Ji shook his reins and the horse ran forward again.

Wei Zha followed closely behind and said in surprise: "Young Master is saying that this is a person who is the one who wants to kill two birds with one stone?"

"Drink----" Qiu Ji shouted a horse and ran far away after a few breaths. The most urgent thing is to return to Beijing quickly. These people came prepared and the troops of Jingzhao Mansion were dispersed. I am afraid that both sides have succeeded now, and the court will inevitably cause an uproar.

It was supposed to be back to the capital, but because Qiu Ji came back alone in advance and no one knew about it, there was no news. Qiu Wanao was wearing it. When he heard the servant say that someone had returned, he immediately asked him to prepare a car. Before Qiu Ji could enter the palace together.

There was silence in the carriage. After a long time, Qiu Wanao asked, "After entering the palace, if the emperor discusses rewards, how should you answer?"

Qiu Ji asked without answering, "My father entered the palace, but was he robbed for the sake of Jingzhao Government's yamen?"

"You don't have to worry about this matter, you just need to receive the merits." Qiu Wanao's face turned dark.

Qiu Ji was silent for a moment before saying: "The three brothers Guan Ba ​​may have been rescued by the Yi army at this time, and the news will be sent back to Beijing soon. At that time, it is best to be able to match the merits and demerits. If the emperor wants to blame me, I, the general of the army, will be blamed."

Qiu Wanao glared at him, unable to believe it, "What? What's going on?"

Qiu Ji then told the post station carefully and said, "This matter must be done by the Yi army. On the one hand, they rescued the captured people, and on the other hand, they rescued Guan Ba. The other hand, they all have some skills. Now they are rescued by the Yi army, and they will serve the Yi army in the future.

I was negligent about this matter and asked them to take advantage of the loopholes. They should have escorted Guan Ba ​​and the other two back to Beijing, but now they have lost someone. The emperor wants to blame him, so I naturally have nothing to say."

Qiu Wanao's fist clattered, "Useless waste, I still miss you, you made a contribution this time. Yesterday I asked for me for me. As soon as the news spread tomorrow, how do you want me to end?"

Wei Zha followed the side of the carriage and listened carefully. Fortunately, Qiu Wanao fell into silence after he finished speaking. He was relieved. But then he thought, how would the emperor ask for punishment if Guan Baruo was really rescued? Thinking of this, his heart hangs again.

In the imperial study room, Xu Cheng walked to Zhuang Yan and said, "Emperor, Fu He Zhenjun General is looking for a meeting."

Zhuang Yan put down his pen and said with a smile: "The great hero is back, and he will pass on it."

"Xuan-----Fu, the general of the town army met with him."

Qiu Wanao and Qiu Ji entered one after another. After the salute, they knelt on the ground but did not get up. Zhuang Yan was puzzled: "Why don't you, your dear friends?"

Qiu Jifeng claimed to be guilty: "The criminal should die. He should have escorted the three brothers Guan Ba, the leader of the Muanshan uprising army, back to Beijing, and wait for the emperor to interrogate them personally. However, today he was ambushed by the Yi army, and Guan Ba ​​and the other two - maybe they have been rescued."

"Saved?" Zhuang Yan raised his eyebrows in surprise and looked at Qiu Wanao in confusion: "Fu, what do you think should I tell all civil and military officials about the dereliction of duty?"

Qiu Wanao said with a slight slouching, "The son of the dog has dereliction of duty and has failed the emperor's trust. Although the prisoner should be under the supervision of Jingzhao Mansion after entering Beijing, escorting the prisoner back to Beijing is also his duty. I ask the emperor to deal with it according to law. As a supporter of a country, I should set an example. The emperor will even commit the same crime as the common people, let alone my son."

Zhuang Yan looked at Qiu Wanao with a steady look: "Fu, do you really think so? Xu Cheng, what punishment should the general be punished if he neglects his duties?"

Xu Cheng stepped forward and said, "Report to the emperor that the general was dereliction of duty and should be punished with a half-behead."

"Bastard." Zhuang Yan glared at him, "How can I cut the son of Fu in half? I don't agree. Just now, Jingzhao Mansion sent the news, how did you say it?"

Xu Cheng said again: "The total number of 27 people of the Yi marching army who were arrested half a year ago has been robbed now."

Zhuang Yan's face turned cold and slapped the table and said angrily: "Damn it-----How does Jingzhao Mansion do things? Even the iron walls can't stand the 20 people. What's the use of me? Jingzhao Mansion is in charge of Kyoto's public security, but now he asks people to rob the prisoners under his nose. Isn't it a false office in Jingzhao Mansion?"

The people in the hall immediately knelt down, but no one dared to say anything.

"Fu thinks how to judge this matter without being fair?" Zhuang Yan looked at Qiu Wanao again with his help.

Qiu Wanao moved his eyes from the ground to the high platform above and said slowly: "The Jingzhao Mansion is indeed in vain. I think it should be dismissed from the position of Jingzhao Yin."

Zhuang Yan thought for a moment and nodded in agreement: "What Fu said is very much, but Jingzhao Yin has made a lot of contributions in previous years. I am afraid that he will have a grudge in his heart, so I asked Fu to send the imperial edict to Jingzhao Mansion in person, and I would like to express some comfort, and I remember that he has served the imperial court for many years and gave him a different village in Nancheng, so I can enjoy my old age in that place."

Qiu Wanao jumped with a brow and said in a deep voice: "I------Abide by the order."

Zhuang Yan discussed again: "The Jingzhao Yin is indispensable in Beijing. What do you think of Liao Weizhang, the governor of Ganyang? I heard that this person is righteous and has both hands and breeze. Ganyang is peaceful every year under his governance, and the people live and work in peace. He is really a legendary figure in Ganyang."

Qiu Wanao hugged his hands: "The emperor is wise, and this person is indeed famous."

"Since that's the case, these two imperial edicts will be drafted by the assistant. I will also announce to all civil and military officials in the court tomorrow."

"My memory-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Zhuang Yan looked at Qiu Ji: "Please get the case. Since you have returned from triumphantly, I will take the title of general back for now. Remember to ask me for the case in the future. If there is nothing else, I will leave."

Qiu Ji knocked again, "The student left."
