Chapter 132: Foggy
Hearing Qianhu's concerned greetings, Tang Ning just waved his hand and still didn't move, just now he fought with Qiu Ling with all his might, and he didn't have time to let him think.
After Qiu Ling left, he fell into deep thought, since Qiu Ling was inseparable from the assassination outside the city, and he and Qiu Ling had been together for a long time, didn't Qiu Ling have any clues to reveal?
Tang Ning fell into the memory, when he understood who Qiu Ling was, when he looked back on Qiu Ling's words and deeds, it was easy to perceive, for example, Qiu Ling had tried his best to persuade him to go hunting in Montenegro.
At that time, Qiu Ling was giving him an idea to hunt fierce beasts as a congratulatory gift for the emperor's Thousand Autumn Festival. But at this moment, Tang Ning recalled that Qiu Ling was definitely ill-intentioned.
Just now Qiuling said to let him go with her, where are he going? Tang Ning finally remembered after pondering, Qiu Ling had said more than once before that she wanted to go to the temple, and even wanted him to accompany her to the temple.
The truth seems to have finally come out. Temple? Tang Ning was really stunned, how could he have anything to do with the temple?
Why did the temple assassinate him? No, not to assassinate him, but to capture him alive! He remembered that Rong Xuan had reminded him not to abuse the orange character, because the temple was located on the orange mountain.
Could it be that just for the sake of this orange character, the temple did not hesitate to use so many masters to arrest him? Are these guys fucking idle?
Other than that, Downing could never have imagined anything else. For a while, Tang Ning felt very speechless, if it was really because of that orange character, the people in the temple thought that he was blasphemous, so they wanted to arrest him and go back to punish him, it would be too fucked.
Tang Ning turned around and wanted to leave, but suddenly remembered another question, Qiu Ling didn't mean to kill him, if Qiu Ling really planned to kill him, he would have died a long time ago.
Qiu Ling wanted to capture him alive, Tang Ning couldn't help but think of the assassination in the woods, it seemed that the three eight-rank assassins didn't want to kill him, it seemed that they also wanted to capture him alive.
In other words, it was not an assassination, but an attempt to capture him alive and bring him back to the temple.
It's easy to kill him, but it's not easy to capture him alive and bring him back to the temple, Tang Ning also thought of this, to take him away, a big living person, it is not possible to ride a horse, you need a carriage to cover it, and even a convoy is needed.
In other words, there must have been a carriage not far from that wood! And now it's just snowing, and there are few pedestrians on the road and even fewer horse-drawn carriages.
Thinking of this, Tang Ning shuddered, this seems to be a clue that can be traced! Tang Ning excitedly said, "Let's go, go back and take the brothers out of the city." ”
Qianhu was stunned and said, "Did you meet the assassin here?" Shouldn't we hunt down the Assassins? ”
Tang Ning said in a deep voice: "The search for assassins in the city is still the Jinyi Guard and the Internal Guard, you go out of the city with this official and pursue the carriage!" ”
At this time, Qiu Ling could not be pursued if he wanted to pursue him, so Tang Ning immediately returned home with his own soldiers. After returning home, Tang Ning immediately gathered his own soldiers and prepared to leave the city.
The head of the internal security department, who had been staying in Tangning's mansion, was immediately stunned: "General Tang, how can you go out of the city on this eventful time?" ”
Tang Ning sneered: "Isn't this official frightened, don't you dare to go out of the city for the rest of your life?" ”
If he hadn't taken care of Xiaoxiao and Rong Xuan in the carriage, Tang Ning and his personal guards would not have suffered so much loss if they were all cavalry.
Now that Tang Ning is out of the city with hundreds of cavalry, there is no danger at all unless he is surrounded and suppressed by a large army.
The stall head hurriedly said, "General Tang, what happened?" Did General Tang find any clues? ”
Tang Ning nodded and said: "Yes, this official has just encountered another attack, it is Qiu Ling, she is in a group with the assassins outside the city, and she is very skilled, and she has entered the realm of eight grades!" ”
The head of the stall couldn't help but gasp when he heard it: "What is that Qiu Ling turned out to be an eight-rank master?" This, how is this possible? ”
Bapin is already a real master, there are not many in the whole world, and Qiu Ling is just a teenage girl, and she actually has the realm of Bapin, how can this not be unbelievable!
Tang Ning nodded and said: "There is no doubt that she is the eighth grade, and this official is not her opponent, but she has no intention of assassinating this official, but wants to capture this official alive!" ”
"Combined with the assassination in the woods outside the city, the official came to a conclusion that those assassins were also thinking about capturing the official alive, so they let the official drag it until the arrival of the secret guards."
"If they want to capture their officials alive, then there must be a carriage prepared outside the city. It's a snowy day, and there are very few horse-drawn carriages passing by outside the city, and the official is about to go out of the city to search! ”
Tang Ning told him in great detail, because he needed this head to go up with the actual information, so that Jinyiwei, the Internal Security Division, and Jingzhao Mansion could search for Qiuling.
After hearing this, the stall head did not dare to be careless, while ordering his subordinates to go to report it, and at the same time summoning his subordinates to go out of the city with Tang Ning.
Nearly five or six hundred horsemen, including the Fan of the Internal Guard Division, galloped out of Beijing and went straight to the forest where the fierce battle took place, and then used the forest as a benchmark to search for any traces of carriages.
This shows the professionalism of the Internal Security Division, after all, it is a secret arrest agency set up by the emperor, and it is much more professional than these elite soldiers in Tang Ning.
They led Tangning's elite soldiers to search the nearby village post station, and there were no carriages passing by.
After summarizing the news, the results were all no, because it was a snowy day, and there was no snow in the carriage during that time.
All the teams that had gone out to search had returned, and they didn't bring back the news that Downing had been expecting. Tang Ning frowned and pondered, could it be that his analysis was wrong?
That's right, Qiu Ling did plan to capture him alive, and after his recollections, it became more and more confirmed that the original assassination was also intended to capture him alive.
Then there must be a carriage to transport him away, how could there be no carriage? This doesn't make sense.
Tang Ning said unwillingly: "Is there really no carriage?" None of the convoys? ”
One of the pairs of men and horses hesitated: "My lord, it's not that there is no convoy, according to the people at the post station, there is a convoy of Jinyi Guard." ”
Jinyiwei's convoy? Tang Ning couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, how could Jinyiwei's convoy not be related to assassins, right?
The head of the stall said in a deep voice: "Jinyiwei encounters an urgent task, but it doesn't matter if it's snowing or not......"
Before he could finish speaking, Tang Ning had already interrupted in a deep voice: "I've searched them all and made sure that no other carriages have passed by, right?" ”
All the teams nodded, and Tang Ning decisively said, "Okay, which direction is that Jinyiwei's convoy going?" Let's catch up and see! ”
The stall head was taken aback: "My lord is suspicious of Jinyiwei?" Jin Yiwei has always been relied on by the emperor, how could he collude with the assassins? ”
