Shisan and Boss Ye both felt a little nervous at the same time.

The reason for Thirteen is relatively simple. Lizi is still on the carriage outside. At this time, a group of soldiers suddenly surrounded him. Do you think they will have delicious food and drink and ask someone to sit down, or will they hang up and have a meal first?

Well, even if you can't hang it up, it's a very suitable hostage, but why is this place surrounded by soldiers?

No matter how you think of Boss Ye’s superior, Jiu Ye, is also a prince and noble. The army besieged her subordinates. Wouldn’t it be that the flood washed away the Dragon King Temple and the people came to beat their own people? Are you not afraid of settlement in the autumn?

In any case, Shisan still wanted to confirm Li Zi's safety first, so he greeted Boss Ye and hurriedly left outside.

If the score can be settled, Boss Ye doesn't have to worry. Thirteen didn't know that being surrounded by the army now means that Jiu Ye has given up on them.

In order to balance the world, the court ordered that any princes, nobles, court officials, regardless of title or official position, should not privately raise military personnel in any form. Those who violate the order will be executed directly without regard to their origins.

Of course, there are countermeasures from the top and policies from the bottom. Nowadays, there is no private force in your hands, so you can't make it anywhere. Many shameful things also require these people to do, so you still have to raise them, but you can't let others know, so you can only do these small moves secretly.

What if someone finds out?

I'm not, I don't, don't talk nonsense.

Reject three consecutive games.

Man Tingfang has been operating in Yangzhou for so many years, but no mistake has happened. On the surface, he has always cooperated with the outside world through intelligence agencies, and even occasionally some official cooperation. After all, this is a secret on the table, and everyone tacitly treats it as if they don’t know it.

So, who is betrayed this time?

Zhang Yanming? Super bored?

The possibility is not great. Man Tingfang and the bad guys cooperate the most. Bad guys also have a very high demand for Man Tingfang. They often need some clues about high-ranking officials. This is an area that bad guys cannot reach, so they can only ask for help.

Although there is nothing absolute, Boss Ye can conclude that Zhang Yanming will not destroy the bridge of friendship between the two sides for the time being. If he really wants to do something, he will send news in advance so that Man Tingfang can prepare.

As for being super boring...

Although this person has a weird temper, he would not have done such a thing. Even though Boss Ye hasn't seen him for many years, he is still an old friend at least. He doesn't say it privately, and he can barely be considered a childhood sweetheart...

Could it be... Ling Family...

No!

It shouldn't be her...

...

"General Yang, she is just a little girl, don't treat it like this, right?" Ling Yunwu frowned, a little unhappy. Her eyes were exactly the same as the chestnut that Thirteen was worried about.

Chestnuts tied up on the punishment rack.

Yang Lie was wearing military uniform, and his usual scholarly aura suddenly turned into a murderous aura, coiled between his eyebrows. He just glanced coldly at Ling Yunwu's complaints, and said lightly: "I still remember when Miss Ling came to find Yang and told Yangzhou that there were illegal people entrenched in Yangzhou City, he was very righteous and swearing to wipe him out in one fell swoop. Why did his heart suddenly become soft at this time?"

As Thirteen expected, the soldiers found that there was a sleepy little girl in the carriage and immediately took her to Yang Lie to ask what to do.

The so-called encirclement is not afraid of the people inside fighting, but they are afraid that they will have some way to leave quietly. But now that there is a hostage of Lizi, it is like an extremely delicious bait. Even if you see the sharp hook under the bait, someone will still bite the hook.

Wen Jin, who had been silent, suddenly whispered to Ling Yunwu, who was sitting on the horse: "Miss Fifth, she is not Man Tingfang's person."

"Why didn't you say it earlier..." After hearing this news, Ling Yunwu's eyes lit up, and after complaining casually, she changed to a tone of discussion and said to Yang Lie, "General Yang, this person should be just passing by, not a thief from Man Tingfang. If you use her as bait, it may not be of any use. Let's put the person down and discuss how to deal with the people inside."

"Miss Ling doesn't need to say much, wait a moment, this girl will play the role she should have." Yang Lie waved his hand and stopped Ling Yunwu's plea.

Women's empathy is much more obvious than men, and they can't stand the weak and suffer. Ling Yunwu's actions made Yang Lie more confident. Hanging chestnuts there would definitely force the people in the house to choose to escape at the first time, but stay and discuss how to save people.

Ling Yunwu wanted to fight for it, and Wen Jin persuaded: "Miss, General Yang is right. This is a good way, not to mention that General Yang did not execute the girl. Since he was a passerby, he would let her have a way out when the matter was turned down. I believe General Yang would not object. Now he should focus on Man Tingfang's people."

Once some things have an advantage in numbers, it is not very useful to stick to their own opinions. Ling Yunwu didn't expect Wen Jin to suddenly turn against him, but now she is an outsider, so she doesn't want to scold her. If she does that, it hurts her subordinates' hearts and makes her look very shameless and can only keep silent.

Although Wen Jin simply confronted her lady, she maintained her usual lifeless appearance, as if she was indifferent to everything that happened in front of her.

At this moment, only she knew what Wen Jin was thinking...

If the encirclement and suppression of Man Tingfang is successful, she will lose many friends, but... if the encirclement and suppression is not successful, she will not only lose many friends, but it will also be difficult to get the opportunity to make a name for herself in a short period of time.

During this trip to Yangzhou, Wen Jin thought he could use the Meng family as a springboard to enter the upper level of the Ling family's guards, but God likes to joke, and the prisoner he wanted to catch this time was an old acquaintance.

Wen Jin had already made up her mind to arrest Ming You, but various situations appeared randomly and the plan could not keep up with the changes, so she pretended to be a killer and wanted to kill Meng Yuyan and delay the matter. As a result, she was stopped by Thirteen, so she could not show off her appearance at the Meng family in the end.

Wen Jin really had no choice but to go back like this, he could only catch some thieves and flower-picking thieves like before, and no matter how many small characters were caught, they wouldn't be able to catch them.

Since it has reached the point of being useless, it’s better to be more ruthless!

Wen Jin told Ling Yunwu everything she knew about Man Tingfang!

In normal times, according to the previous rules, two groups of people were responsible for the matter of privately cultivating forces in the kings and court officials - some princes and court officials would solve the problem in secret, and no one else would have to worry about it. The Ling family's responsibility is to eliminate the forces cultivated privately.

With the identity of Jiuye and Man Tingfang's strength in Yangzhou, it would undoubtedly be a great achievement if he could destroy this force! However, there have been many thieves recently, and almost all the people with high strength in the Ling family's stronghold in Yangzhou were dispatched, leaving only some second- and third-rate characters to guard the house.

In desperation, Ling Yunwu could only find Yang Lie to help.

"There are people on the wall, shooting arrows!"

A sharp-eyed soldier found Thirteen squatting on the wall and secretly glanced at him, and he issued an order without thinking.

Swallowing!
