Chapter 74
Thank you (Scarecrow) for your reward again, thank you!
The news of Feng Yanqing's death quickly spread throughout Penglai like the wind. Even Li Jing, who had been deliberately keeping a low profile after returning to the military camp, had long heard about how Feng Yanqing was brutally killed by a group of pirates in Zhendonghai, and piled up people's heads into various versions of Jingguan. Although Li Jing and others came back a little late that night, they had arranged it carefully in advance. That day, the people on duty at the southwest corner of the camp were the brothers who had written by Wang Zhong. When Li Jing and the others came back, they secretly sneaked back to the camp from there. No one in the camp knew that they had returned in the middle of the night.
After returning to the camp that night, Li Jing immediately asked everyone to take a shower carefully, buried all the clothes they had changed, and wiped all the armor and weapons carefully. Then he called everyone to join the assassination, and Zhang Hong took a pen to register the address of everyone's hometown. Li Jing showed it in front of everyone with the blank paper that had recorded the address: "All brothers' hometown addresses have been recorded on it. After two days, I will arrange for people to send 100 pieces of silk to each person's house according to this address. I promised to give everyone a penny. Next, everyone must keep a low profile as much as possible as I told me. No word about everything about tonight, and even if it was a dream, they could not speak the dream talk about tonight. Do you understand?"
"I understand!" Everyone nodded. Li Jing did not give them the money directly, but sent it to their homes. They didn't think much about it. Li Jing's explanation was to avoid people finding abnormalities when they got too much money in their hands. Although some people also speculated whether Li Jing was a little distrustful of them, they remembered that their address was to prevent someone from leaking their secrets and to take revenge on them in the future. But no matter what the reason, since they heard that Li Jing would send a penny of the reward of the one hundred pieces of silk to their homes, they would be fine.
Li Jing solemnly warned: "From now on, don't mention anything tonight anymore. After you go back, I will re-arrange the team, so the brothers participating in tonight's affairs are arranged together, in groups of three. Whether it's eating, sleeping, or going out to work in the cottage, three must be together. Of course, don't think it's troublesome, this is also to protect everyone. After this gust of wind, everyone will not have to worry about it."
Then on the third day of the second day, Li Jing stayed in the camp honestly, and even the connection with Lin Wei, Wang Chong and others stopped. Every day, he stayed in the left-handed camp, and he was still training troops, and he didn't even take a step forward in the camp gate. The assassination of Feng Yanqing's uncle and nephew who were gathering outside seemed to have nothing to do with him. It was not until the third day that Li Jing took the opportunity of mourning the Feng family to go to the Lifeng cloth shop in Dongcheng.
The ten thousand pieces of silk that Li Jing obtained last time were stored in the store of the daughter of the village chief Wang Lao. He observed Wang Yueying and the old shopkeeper for a long time, but he was still very at ease with their character. When he pulled the ten thousand pieces of silk to the cloth shop, the old shopkeeper obviously knew about the gambling with Feng Liang, so he didn't ask any more questions and saved the huge sum. Li Jing handed the white paper with the address written on it to the old shopkeeper and asked him to send someone to send 100 pieces of silk to each of the shopkeepers, but it had to be hidden and everyone knew about it.
As soon as Li Jing returned to the military camp from the cloth village, Xiao Shitou ran to tell him that today, Du Yuhou Song Wen, Princess Xihe, as well as Yu Xiaomazi, Cui and King Zhao all sent people to come here one after another, all of whom wanted to invite Li Jing to talk about the matter. Li Jing felt nervous. Could it be that the incident happened? But if the matter was leaked, I am afraid that it would be the one who came to capture his soldiers as soon as possible. Kill the imperial officials, even if Cui Yunqing and Li Yin protect him, they would not be able to protect him. If it weren't for this, why would everyone suddenly come to him?
He carefully recalled the past and continued, and always felt that although it was not completely flawless, it was impossible to be discovered for a while. However, Song Wen and others were not simple people. Too much words would lead to mistakes. Before the news passed, he still didn't want to meet them. Finally, he wrote several posts in person and refused to invite Song Wen and others one by one. However, Song Wen and others were kindly rejected, but Cui Yunqing's summons were difficult to refuse directly.
Li Jing finally followed the people sent by Cui Yunqing to the governor's mansion. As soon as he entered the door, he found that not only Cui Yunqing was there, but Li Feng was there, and on the other side, Li Huier and Yu Youniang were there. The two were sitting there waiting for him. As soon as they met, Cui Yunqing immediately said bluntly: "Why haven't you seen your figure these days?"
"Students are busy with training recently and really can't find time to pay tribute to the teacher."
"Do you know about Feng Yanqing's murder?"
"The students heard some of them, and there were all kinds of sayings, and even the military camp is now flying all over the sky." Li Jing answered the question and responded carefully. Cui Yunqing and the others said it was about Feng Yanqing, but they did not seem to doubt him.
Li Xian seemed to be in a good mood and said to Li Jing with a smile: "Don't be too nervous, there is nothing else to do when you come to you. I remember that you met the thieves from Zhendonghai last time, and successfully escaped. This Zhendonghai is very famous in the Dengzhou area, but it is very mysterious. It has always been without a trace. I have seen them and are still alive. There are very few people. Just tell us, what do these people in Zhendonghai look like?" Li Jing felt very happy after hearing this.
Zhong sighed a little relieved: "The students have indeed met a group of thieves in Zhendonghai. It is said that there are four leaders in Zhendonghai, the eldest white beard, the second yellow beard, the third red beard, and the fourth black beard. I have never seen the white beard and the black beard, but I have seen the yellow beard in the prison in Chishan Town, and later I met the red beard at the foot of Chishan." Li Jing carefully explained his experience of meeting Huangbeard and Red Beard, and after sorting out, he chose to speak out.
Cui Yunqing said with some disappointment: "According to you, these bearded thieves are not as cruel and bloodthirsty as the legends outside, but they have a little chivalrous spirit?" Li Jing said carefully: "Thieves are thieves, and they cannot be said to be chivalrous spirit, but these people are more rules-oriented. If they really kill Feng Changshi, then they must have had a deep festival between them."
"I have never heard of this, but it is not impossible. You may not know that the Feng family is a noble family and has a huge wealth. But in fact, Feng Yanqing has been in Dengzhou for many years and secretly attracted many high-ranking officials and wealthy families to organize together. For many years, he has been relying on the Silo Sea Channel of the Bohai Sea in Dengzhou for sea, and earns countless money every year through sea smuggling trade. However, Zhendonghai is a famous pirate on the Bohai Sea. Maybe there are some relationships between them that we don't know. Now that Zhendonghai has a falling out for some reason, it is possible that Zhendonghai will ambush Feng Yanqing in one go." Li Feng said to Li Jing.
Cui Yunqing suddenly said to Li Jing: "Ji Yu, tell me the truth to you, you really have nothing to do with this matter, right?"
Li Jing did not expect Cui Yunqing to suddenly ask this question at this time, and he felt a little panicked and had no time to answer. Cui Yunqing waved his hand at him: "Don't rush to answer first. There are no outsiders here today, they are all their own people. Regardless of whether this matter has anything to do with you, we all hope that you can tell us the truth. It is naturally best if the matter has nothing to do with you. If there is anything to do with you, you can tell me it earlier. Those who can help you will definitely help you."
Li Jing was silent for a few breaths. He bit his lower lip and said in a deep voice: "Uncle and nephew Feng Yanqing are not good people. I long wish I could get rid of them. Unexpectedly, they were indeed retribution and were killed by Zhen Donghai."
"It is not certain whether he was killed by Zhendonghai. However, Feng Yanqing is indeed a vicious person. He died now, but it also made us feel relieved. Since this matter has nothing to do with you, it is the best. However, everyone knows about your holiday with the Feng family. You should be careful and low-key recently. If you have nothing to do, stay in the camp to train troops more often. I don't have to come here often." Cui Yunqing did not investigate this matter, and took it back after a few words.
After chatting for a while, Li Jing said goodbye on the excuse that there was something to do in the camp, and Cui Yunqing did not keep Li Jing. After Li Jing left, Li Huier and the others followed him to send him out. Seeing that the three young people had left, Cui Yunqing frowned and suddenly said quietly: "Forget it, I believe that most of this matter was done by him. I had just had a little doubt before, but now I can be sure. I really didn't expect that he had such a decisive and cruel experience at a young age.
The side of the story. The saint can see the world that is ten feet away; we mortals can only see one step away, one step away. Ji Yu is beyond my expectations everywhere, but unfortunately this kid seems to be a little paranoid. He is too aggressive and prefers to take risks. Alas, I don’t know whether it is a blessing or a disaster, or let him mess around and get back, maybe he can wake up from the collision, but I hope it is not too late to understand the meaning of the words we have said to him at that time."
Li Feng was still a little unbelievable. He could not connect the young, cautious, polite and humble Li Jing in front of them that day with the bloody scenes of Jingguan piled up on the ground and the head piled up from the head that day. However, he had a deep understanding of Cui Yunqing. Since he could come to such a conclusion, it was really possible.
After Li Jing refused Song Wen's first invitation, Song Wei still sent people to invite him every day in the next few days. Although Li Jing was worried that the other party was the immediate boss, he only talked with Cui Yunqing and the others, and Cui Yunqing pointed out that he killed Feng Yanqing. He didn't know how Cui Yunqing did it, but he did not dare to see Song Wen again. If Song Wen also realized that Feng Yanqing was killed by him, the result would be fatal. Therefore, despite being under tremendous pressure, Li Jing still had to refuse the invitation to go up again and again.
More than ten days passed in a row. Seeing that the training of the Unified Soldiers was about to come, the news that Feng Yanqing, who had been rumored to be ambushed and killed by Zhendonghai, gradually came to the news. On this day, Li Jing had just ordered the disbanding of the team for lunch, but saw that Song Wen, the Du Yu Hou, had to personally go to the Zuoyidu Clinic and waited for him. "Person Li, Du Yu Hou has something to see you." Li Jing's scalp was numb at that time, so he had to bite the bullet and go over. After more than ten days, Song Wen's smile became more. Seeing Li Jing, he was still very gentle and said with a smile: "Li Sanlang, you don't have to hide from me every day. In fact, I knew a long time ago that you killed the uncle and nephew Feng Yanqing, right?"
