The leading steward saw that the large pile of hay was gone, so he was a little flustered, looked at the few bales of hay scattered near the guest room, and complained in his heart, not to mention that this bit of grass burned people, even the roast chicken could not be cooked.

I have a lot of hay ready, but what about my big stuff?

Why is it gone?

Just when the group was stupid, Qin Rongshuai hid behind the window of the guest room and secretly observed, and by the way, he also sorted out the placement of hay for the people outside.

A bundle was thrown outside, so he reached out and put a bundle into his personal space, and finally played too high, so that the people outside found the flaw.

A few of the people who were working looked around tremblingly, feeling that something seemed to be spying on them in the night, so they panicked and gathered around the steward and suggested, "Steward, why do I think something is wrong, let's ...... Let's run. ”

"What's the panic?! Look at you who have never seen the world. The steward said inwardly, "This scared you?" ”

The men lowered their heads, not knowing what to say.

The steward seemed to be very satisfied with this effect, and waved his hand, "The master said, you must be the person who killed the brocade guard today, otherwise you and I will not have good fruit to eat." ”

"Since it's no longer necessary to set fires." The steward gritted his teeth and pulled out his knife, "It's the same if you rush in and slaughter it." ”

As soon as the steward raised his sword, a bow and arrow suddenly shot out of the darkness, piercing his wrist accurately, and the knife fell to the ground.

Then dozens of figures slowly appeared in the surrounding black curtain, surrounding the post station.

Qin Rongshuai pushed open the door of the guest room and walked out from inside, Li Yuanfang followed closely behind him, the two of them were refreshed, and they couldn't see any traces of drunkenness.

"Your late night visit makes Qin very happy." Qin Rongshuai looked at the people in the courtyard with a smile, "It is not common to burn down the post station, assassinate the imperial court officials, and murder the Qin Cha." ”

The steward's face turned blue and white, and when he gritted his teeth, he suddenly shouted, "Brothers, fight with them......

Before the words fell, I saw a black shadow rushing out from behind Qin Rongshuai, slashing a palm on the steward's mouth, and smashing a fist on the other party's stomach, and the steward fell to the ground with a thud, and spit out.

Qin Rongshuai walked over with square steps, looking down at the steward, "Which family are you from?" Changjia? The Cao family? Or the Fan family? ”

The steward gritted his teeth while spitting blood, and refused to speak.

Qin Rongshuai nodded, "It doesn't matter if you don't say it, anyway, I will visit these houses one by one, you go back and bring a letter to your master, count all the family property, and I'll go back to the door to get it." Yuan Fang, unload his right hand and leave a memorial. ”

After saying that, Qin Rongshuai turned around and left, Li Yuanfang cut off the right hand of the steward with a knife, and shouted: "Don't get out yet." ”

The steward screamed and fainted, and the others were stunned for a moment, and only came back to their senses when they heard Li Yuanfang's shout, turned around and ran.

"Wait." Li Yuanfang screamed, and the others were dumbfounded, thinking that Jinyiwei was going to repent, "Take your stewards away." ”

The others hesitated for a moment, turned around and helped the steward up, and slipped away quickly.

Li Yuanfang was a little puzzled, "My lord, really let them go like this?" Don't send anyone with you. ”

"There's no need." Qin Rongshuai smiled and said, "They know what I'm here for, this won't be the first time, we have time to play slowly with them." ”

After resting at the post station for the night, early in the morning, Qin Rongshuai set off with his men.

When he arrived at the boundary of Datong Town, he was not hiding his traces, and generously let his subordinates wear flying fish suits, embroidered spring knives across their waists, and swaggered on the official road.

There is still less than three miles away from Datong Town, Ma Chengen, the chief soldier of Datong Town, came to greet him with a group of generals and guerrillas, and the strange thing is that there are only a number of senior military attachés, but there are not many civilian officials, and the few who follow the team are all petty officials below the fifth grade.

Qin Rongshuai sneered in his heart, he had already expected this situation, after all, he was a Jinyi guard, and staying away from the factory guard was the creed of the civilian officialdom, not to mention that he came to inspect smuggling this time, and the main object was Datong Border Town, so the civil officials were like hiding from the plague god, for fear of getting involved in this matter.

Qin Rongshuai jumped off his horse and hurriedly walked to the general soldier of Datong, "Oh, why did you let Master Ma come to greet you in person, the officials were panicked." ”

Ma Chengen smiled, "The Son of Heaven sent an inspection, as if His Majesty was here in person, how dare Ma slacken." Lord Qianhe, did you bring any will, let's announce it now. ”

Qin Rongshuai hurriedly nodded yes, so Ma Chengen ordered people to put on the offering table, incense burner and other objects, and led everyone to kneel down to receive the order.

read out Zhu Changluo's encouragement to the military generals of Datong Border Town, and then promulgated the relevant rewards, and finally mentioned in the holy decree that Qin Rongshuai came to inspect the smuggling.

After reading the holy decree, Qin Rongshuai hurriedly helped Ma Chengen up with his own hands, and the two of them exchanged polite greetings, and the Datong general invited Qin Rongshuai to the city for a banquet.

Along the way, the two smiled politely at each other, and they seemed to be familiar with each other.

But Qin Rongshuai still secretly raised his vigilance in his heart, Ma Chengen is the nephew of the famous military general Ma Gui, Ma Gui is a famous general of the Wanli Dynasty, who has guarded the border towns for generations, and was promoted to the chief military officer because of his military exploits.

At that time, he and Li Chengliang were called East Li Xima by the world, and they were another family of military generals besides the Li family.

Ma Gui and Wanli forty-six years, that is, the year before the death of illness, by his nephew Ma Chengen took over as the general army of Datong, the Ma family in Datong generations guard, the tree has deep roots, relatives and friends are old, the old department of the door is everywhere, is the largest head snake.

Two people and many generals, all the way into Mafu, see the carved beams and paintings inside, extravagant and abnormal, the garden on Ma Chengen's house is modeled after the design of Suzhou gardens in the south of the Yangtze River, the flowers, plants, mountains and stones are transported from Suzhou, the cost of this alone is staggering.

Qin Rongshuai looked at the garden and praised it, and then after resigning a few times, he and Ma Chengen sat down on the chairman, looking at the table mountain delicacies and delicacies, staggering, and the guests and hosts were happy.

Qin Rongshuai picked up his wine glass, stood up, and said loudly; "Brothers, Qin Mou has the emperor's order to inspect the border towns this time, if nothing else, it is one thing, to inspect smuggling, and I hope that you brothers will cooperate more."

As soon as the words fell, the whole scene fell silent, and one person looked at each other with a strange face, but no one spoke.
