Volume 1: Storm in the Western Regions Chapter 40 Trends(1/2)

Yuan Kexin was a little afraid of Ye Sanniang. When she saw her walking in, she quickly came to Zhao Rang's side, looking nervous.

"Recovering well!"

Zhao Rang said happily.

Yuan Kexin nodded and said nothing. Her attention was still focused on Ye Sanniang.

"You know who she is, right?"

Zhao Rang asked again.

Yuan Kexin whispered:

"I know, let's go quickly! This female devil is moody..."

Zhao Rang smiled and said:

"It's true that she's moody, but she saved both of our lives last night."

Yuan Kexin knew that Zhao Rang valued loyalty and thought that it was for this reason that he was unwilling to leave, so he said even more anxiously:

"Brother Zhao, I know you are a kind person and want to return the favor... After we find my brother together, I will definitely ask him to prepare enough gold and silver to send to her! Doesn't she love money the most? Just treat it as our money.

Money buys life, no one loses!"

Hearing what Yuan Kexin called him, Xian Rang was a little surprised, waved his hand and said:

"I can't be your big brother, so you should just call me by my name!"

"Besides, her side is different from what you think. I have already made an agreement with her!"

Yuan Kexin opened her mouth to say something else, but Ye Sanniang shouted from inside the room:

"The rice is ready, come and eat!"

On the square table were placed three sets of bowls and chopsticks, a basin of porridge, some noodles, and some side dishes.

"Haha, here it comes!"

Zhao Rang was very satisfied with the breakfast.

I didn’t expect that Ye Sanniang was actually a good hand at doing this!

"Sister, after all, I have been wandering all the way to get here. If I hadn't had these two moments, I would have starved to death?"

Zhao Rang didn't know what to say, so he had to invite Yuan Kexin to come for dinner, but in his heart he felt that this woman Ye Sanniang was really extraordinary!

Only when she can tell this matter as a joke can it really be over. Zhao Rang doesn't know how she did it.

"It's just like making porridge, when the heat is up, even the hard rice will turn to mush!"

Ye Sanniang picked up a piece of noodle cake and took a small bite. The bright red lipstick left a crescent-shaped mark on the noodle cake.

Zhao Rang finished the meal like a storm, and in the blink of an eye he had eaten three pancakes and two bowls of porridge!

On the other hand, Yuan Kexin had no appetite. She only drank less than half of the bowl of gruel, then put down the bowl and chopsticks and stared out the door in a daze.

Zhao Rang knew that she must be worried about the safety of her brother Yuan Mingkong.

Since the two decided to split up, Yuan Mingkong has been gone for more than eight hours.

Moreover, Yuan Mingkong did not know the identity of the innkeeper, nor did he know where Zhao Rang and his sister Yuan Kexin had left.

Even if he returned to the inn without any accidents, there would be no trace of the two of them.

"Well, I didn't tell you last night, and I guess you don't know her either. Now that you little... girl has woken up, you can ask her for details!"

Ye Sanniang remembered that Zhao Rang didn't like her joke about Kai Yuan Kexin, so she took it back mid-sentence, then took out an arrow from her sleeve and put it on the table.

"Is this the sword shot by the group of people last night?"

Zhao Rang asked.

In fact, he had always wanted to ask Ye Sanniang who the other great master was last night, but seeing that Ye Sanniang had no clear intention, he did not ask. Anyway, Ye Sanniang had promised to save his life at the critical moment.

It’s okay not to ask.

When you know less, you are less burdened and can focus more on the things at hand.

"This is……"

Yuan Kexin took one look at the feather arrow and immediately turned pale...

"Do you recognize this arrow?"

Yuan Kexin took a deep breath and said:

"This is the standard issue of Shadow Guard... double hook light feather arrow."

Zhao Rang was shocked and speechless.

Among the three of them, only Ye Sanniang was calm and composed. After finishing the noodles in her hands, she patted the dregs off her hands and started to clear away the dishes on the table.

If this arrow is exclusively used by the Shadow Guards of the Investigation Division, it means that it was the Shadow Guards of the Investigation Division who intercepted and killed the two men last night!

Yuan Kexin obviously didn't accept this, but her lips began to tremble.

"No, it won't..."

"Then my brother..."

Zhao Rang looked at Yuan Kexin's reaction and sighed secretly.

This girl, like her brother, felt that her shadow guard would never betray him.

But with the facts in front of her, Zhao Rang had nothing to say. She could only wait until she calmed down and figured it out.

There was no other way, Zhao Rang had to get up and go to the kitchen, and asked Ye Sanniang who was washing the dishes:

"Who was that person you fought against?"

At this point, he couldn't care less about what was going on between this man and Ye Sanniang.

Since that man acted together with the man in black who intercepted him and Yuan Kexin last night and figured out his identity, it can also prove in disguise whether those people are shadow guards or not.

"That guy is just an old bastard!"

Ye Sanniang said contemptuously.

Zhao Rang asked:

"Who is it?!"

Ye Sanniang stopped what she was doing and glanced at Zhao Rang. Seeing that he was serious, she stopped teasing and said seriously:

"When he was in Dawei, he had the nickname Lian Gongzi. Now he is a desperate charlatan. As long as you give him enough money, you can let him shoot his own mother to death!"

Zhao Rang has heard of the name "Lian Gongzi".

It can even be said to be thunderous.

Because he can be said to be the biggest rebel since the founding of Dawei!

As the commander-in-chief of the Iron Armored Army, the strongest force in the frontier army, Lian Gongzi not only refused to listen to the court's orders and returned to the army to quell the rebellion when the Chen family was in turmoil, but instead stood idly by and took advantage of the situation!

In the end, he embezzled 2.4 million taels of silver from the Iron Armored Army and left Yangguan with a few trusted lieutenants to seek refuge in the Western Regions.

The imperial court was furious about this and killed all his relatives and friends who were still in the country!

However, because the turmoil in the Chen family became more and more serious, there was no spare power to suppress it.

In Zhao Rang's childhood impression, it seemed that the streets were once full of portraits of Lian Gongzi and sea fishing notices, but the thunder was loud and the rain was light...

What's more, people are in the Western Regions, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, so in the end they can only let it go.

Unexpectedly, after so many years, this person is not only living well, but his martial arts cultivation has also improved, and he has reached the level of a third-level grand master!

"He is not an old bastard, he is an old monster..."

"At least for me!"

Zhao Rang said dumbfounded.

If Zhao Rang had been born two years later, he would never have heard of Lian Gongzi's name.

A person who has almost become a legend, but standing in front of him one after another, this feeling is probably no one can explain clearly.

But even if he knew who this person was, Zhao Rang still couldn't determine the identity of the group of men in black last night.

The "double hooked light feathered arrow" alone is not enough!

After all, even the Admiralty Escort Agency can build a huge fletching factory, so it is not too difficult to get the same fletching arrows.

Maybe this was a deliberate frame-up by one of the forces in the royal city, including the fourth prince Anzuo, the princess Amani, and the one in Xiangteng who Zhao Rang had doubts about.

"Brother Zhao!"

While Zhao Rang was thinking, he heard Yuan Kexin suddenly calling him.

"What's wrong?"

Yuan Kexin took out a small iron box from his pocket, which was the second map Yuan Mingkong showed to Zhao Rang that day.

Ye Sanniang is indeed well-informed. After seeing the iron box, she said:
To be continued...
