Chapter 730 Meeting an old friend(1/2)
"Have you two been running smoothly recently?"
In the evening, Xiao Yeyang, Yan Wentao, and Yan Wenkai walked out of the Jinlingwei office together.
Since returning to Beijing, Yan Wentao and Yan Wenkai no longer work under Xiao Yeyang, and Xue Xiang has reassigned tasks to them.
Yan Wenkai smiled and said: "Don't worry, everything is fine."
After not following Yeyang, although the convenience before was gone, he and his third brother were able to stand alone. For those who jumped out from time to time and disobeyed them, they had already used their fists to teach them how to behave.
Xiao Yeyang nodded: "That's good. If you encounter any difficulties, just say it. This Jinling Guard is not an iron bucket. Please pay more attention to your actions in the future. You can only report the errands at hand to the commander and don't go through others."
Hands on."
Yan Wenkai said 'hmm', feeling thankful that he and his third brother both had confidants trained in Zhongzhou and Northern Xinjiang. Otherwise, it would be difficult to carry out many errands when they arrived in the capital.
There is no way, their foundation is too thin.
Yan Wentao noticed Xiao Yeyang's frown and asked, "Is it true that there are still members of the Eight Kings active?"
Xiao Yeyang nodded.
Yan Wentao frowned: "That shouldn't be the case. The Eighth Prince's body was inspected personally by the commander. We were also present at the time. There can be no lies. Now that the Eighth Prince is dead, who will continue to work for a dead man?"
p>
Xiao Yeyang's eyes darkened, and he said quietly: "The Eighth King is dead, but the Eighth King's son is still alive."
Yan Wentao and Yan Wenkai had a meal together.
Xiao Yeyang narrowed his eyes slightly: "Although Xiao Yechi was chased by us and fled into the swamp, no one can confirm whether he is dead or alive."
Yan Wenkai frowned: "But don't the local herdsmen say that the swamp is a desert, and no one who goes in comes out alive?"
Xiao Yeyang: "...Nothing in this world is so absolute. Everything is unpredictable."
Hearing this, Yan Wentao and Yan Wenkai couldn't help but fell silent.
After a while, Yan Wenkai saw Xiao Yeyang following them and couldn't help but said, "Are you going to my house for dinner again?"
Xiao Yeyang glanced sideways: "Aren't you welcome?"
Yan Wenkai shrugged: "How dare I!"
The three of them rode horses leisurely and walked on Xuanwu Street. They saw many officers and soldiers on the street. Xiao Yeyang took a look at Defu and asked him to find out what happened.
Soon, Defu came back: "Master, Third Master, and Fourth Master, it is the Third Master Luo from Duke Wei's Mansion who was assassinated. Now the First Master Luo is arresting people everywhere."
Xiao Yeyang frowned: "Who did it?"
Defu: "If you say she is a girl, no matter how much you ask, you won't be able to find out more."
Yan Wenkai smiled and said: "Could it be the trouble caused by the romantic affair?"
Yan Wentao: "If you dare to assassinate the legitimate son of the Duke's mansion, I'm afraid it won't be easy."
Xiao Yeyang didn't care at all. Seeing that it was getting late, he couldn't help but urge: "Okay, stop minding other people's business and go back to the house quickly." Although he and Yi Yi were engaged now, he couldn't stay in the Yan Mansion.
If you stay too late and go too late, the time you spend with Yiyi will be short.
The three of them passed through Xuanwu Street quickly, and when they were about to enter Dongjiao Street through Chaonanmen Street, they saw a carriage with a jade stone frame.
When Xiao Yeyang saw it, he immediately rode over and ran over.
When Bishi saw Xiao Yeyang and the others, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Why are you driving the carriage? Where is the coachman?"
Xiao Yeyang turned over and dismounted, and without waiting for Bishi to speak, he went to lift the curtain of the carriage. His originally smiling face suddenly froze when he saw that there was only one Hongying in the carriage.
"Where is your girl?"
Xiao Yeyang frowned and looked at Bishi.
At this time, Yan Wentao and Yan Wenkai also came over.
Bishi quickly blessed the three of them, and then briefly told Dong Yuanyao's assassination of Mr. Luo: "There were officers and soldiers checking the carriage before, and the girl took Miss Dong and hid through the back door of the clothing store. We were originally going to
They met together, but something happened in the middle, and the slave was separated from the girl. Now Yan Ying has gone to find the girl."
After hearing what Bishi said, Xiao Yeyang and the other three were a little shocked.
Dong Yuanyao killed Luo Hongyuan of Duke Wei!!!
Yan Wentao looked at Defu: "Did you just say that Third Young Master Luo is dead?"
Defu nodded: "It was said that he was stabbed in the heart and could not be rescued."
Yan Wentao took a deep breath and looked solemnly at Xiao Yeyang and Yan Wenkai.
Xiao Yeyang was silent for a moment: "Find Yiyi and Miss Dong first." After saying that, he asked where Bishi and Daohua were separated, and was about to leave on horseback.
Before leaving, Xiao Yeyang reined in the horse's rope again and looked at Yan Wentao. Yan Wenkai said: "The power of Duke Wei in the capital is not small. You two had better not openly confront them."
Yan Wentao and Yan Wenkai both nodded.
After Xiao Yeyang left, Yan Wentao looked at Bishi: "You are now driving the carriage back home to let people know that the eldest sister has returned home. If the madam or the old lady comes to see her, just say that she is tired and has gone to bed.
.Remember, don’t let others see Miss Hongying.”
Bishi nodded and quickly drove the carriage away.
After that, Yan Wentao looked at Yan Wenkai again: "I will also go find the eldest sister and Dong sister. You go to the Dong family yard and have a look."
Yan Wenkai nodded: "Okay."
Soon, the two went their separate ways.
......
On the other side, unable to meet up with Yan Ying and Bishi, Daohua could only take Dong Yuanyao to a warehouse she had bought before for temporary shelter.
At first, because the two were wearing men's clothes, no officers and soldiers noticed them when they were walking on the street. But later, among the officers and soldiers who arrested them, there were many maids and women from the Duke of Wei's mansion.
Dong Yuanyao and Luo Hongyuan were engaged, and all the maids and mothers-in-law of the Duke of Wei knew her.
Daohua originally thought that Dong Yuanyao, who was disguised as a man, would not be recognized, but the wife of the Duke of Wei was so sharp-eyed that she recognized Dong Yuanyao who was ducking her head and retreating. If Yan Ying hadn't arrived in time,
When they arrived, they lured away the officers and soldiers, and they were arrested.
"Hoo, hoo, hoo~"
Daohua pulled Dong Yuanyao and ran quickly for several streets until they reached the edge of the inland river before stopping out of breath.

"Yi Yi, please leave me alone. Luo Hongyuan's eldest brother is the commander of the Beijing Guard. He is very familiar with the capital. No matter where I hide, he will definitely find me. Now I have escaped the capture of the officers and soldiers.
It will be found in the end."
Dong Yuanyao put her hands on her knees and gasped for air.
Daohua: "...Escape today first, and then I will find a way to send you to the city. As long as you leave the city, the world is huge. Can the Luo family still look for you everywhere?"
Dong Yuanyao shook his head: "The Luo family will not let me go. If they can't catch me, they will definitely go to the Dong family to find my parents and eldest brother. I can't implicate them."
Daohua's face was full of disapproval: "This matter has nothing to do with your family. Even though the Weiguo Palace is powerful, it does not dare to blatantly embarrass the Dong family. It may take it out on the Dong family, but at least their lives are safe."
p>
"But you are different. If you are captured, you will definitely die. Think about it for yourself, can your uncle, aunt, and Brother Dong accept this?"
Hearing this, Dong Yuanyao covered her face in pain and squatted on the ground.
Daohua didn't care about comforting her now, and quickly looked around the surrounding environment. When the sound of officers and soldiers searching behind her came again, she quickly picked up Dong Yuanyao and ran forward.
The inland river is connected to the Grand Canal outside the city. The river surface is very wide. Now we are about to enter the Dragon Boat Festival. The weather is hot. At night, many people like to come here to cool off. Some dignitaries will also swim in the river to enjoy the night view.
At this moment, there are many pleasure boats and boats on the river. From a distance, you can still hear the chatter and laughter on the boats.
"Get out of the way, Shuntian Prefecture is arresting the murderer tonight, and no one else is allowed to stay outside!"
Seeing the officers and soldiers appearing in front, Daohua cursed in her heart and quickly led Dong Yuanyao back.
"Ouch!"
While running around in a hurry, the two of them accidentally bumped into someone.
"Things without eyes can't see people!"
Immediately, someone scolded Daohua and Dong Yuanyao.
Daohua quickly apologized to the middle-aged man who was hit: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." With that, she was about to leave with Dong Yuanyao.
But the middle-aged man stopped in front of the two of them and said reluctantly: "You hit someone and just want to walk away?"
Daohua frowned, looked back at the officers and soldiers who were about to come over, looked at the middle-aged man, lowered his head and said: "This master, it was our fault just now. Please don't remember the villain's fault and go around us."
."
The middle-aged man didn't know where he got angry, and he felt unhappy. He immediately sneered and said, "What if I don't go around it?"
Daohua's face suddenly darkened, and she quickly took out a Itchy Pill from her purse (space), and was about to throw it to the middle-aged man when a pleasant voice came over.
"Why did you two come back?"
