After the matter, I left my clothes and hid my merits and fame.

Unfortunately, for several forces inside and outside Quanzhou Prefecture City, it is far from time to time.

Needless to say, Zheng Yixiang failed to successfully catch Mu Yixing and let the other party escape under his nose. The clues he finally got were cut off.

The Dongchang, which is temporarily integrated with the Jinyiwei, is naturally the same.

But this time they were not so disappointed, but on the contrary they were a little gloating.

After all, compared with Li Wujiu, who was unfortunately poisoned and died, this time, what Zheng Yixiang did was indeed too ugly. After having obtained a lot of information in advance, he watched the target escape safely.

Previously, because the Dongchang had no leader, he could only temporarily surrender to Zheng Yixiang's command. If it succeeded, they would naturally be able to share a small part of the credit, but this also brought benefits, that is, after the failure now, they would not have to bear the pressure.

The reason why people escaped was completely because Zheng Yixiang was incompetent.

They have even figured out how to pass the blame.

For Chao Wangtian, a local snake who surrendered to Zheng Yixiang's huge pressure, even if the matter was gone, he could not leave.

But now, when Zheng Yixiang and his party did not catch Mu Yixing, he was the one who was the most panicked.

After all, no matter whether the success or not of the success of Zheng Yixiang and other strong dragons in the river are, they will inevitably pat their butts and leave afterwards. It is impossible for them to stay in Quanzhou City for the rest of their lives.

Moreover, even if Mu Yixing was too arrogant, he would not dare to retaliate against Zheng Yixiang and other factory guards who represented the court and the emperor. But for him, a "traitor" who betrayed Mu Yixing, Mu Yixing would definitely not be afraid or polite.

It can be said that from the moment he was forced to lead the way for Zheng Yixiang, he had completely broken up with Mu Yixing, the deputy leader of the Zhenhai Gang who helped him grow into the leading gang of Quanzhou Prefecture, and the relationship between the two was already in an endless life.

Therefore, as soon as he returned to Quanzhou Prefecture City, Chao Wangtian was more active than Zheng Yixiang, and immediately told Zheng Yixiang that the entire Zhenhai could help him search for Mu Yixing's subordinates in the city, and search for the whereabouts of Mu Yixing's escaped throughout Quanzhou Prefecture and even Funing Road.

Zheng Yixiang, who knew why Chao Wangtian was so active, naturally refused Chao Wangtian's "good intention", but he himself was obviously more concerned about all the past experiences of Chao Wangtian and Mu Yixing.

However, before he could suppress his anger, anxiety, and nervousness in his heart, he "invite" Chao Wangtian to his residence to rest, he was unable to catch up with Zheng Yixiang in time because he was scattered in the city. The Jinyiwei who stayed in the city told Zheng Yixiang a news.

"Little Flag with the surname Bai?"

As Chen Yanqing's confidant, after hearing the news reported by his subordinates, Zheng Yixiang immediately grasped the point.

"Is that person?"

"It should be him."

His subordinates affirmed Zheng Yixiang's guess.

"There should be no second little flag with the surname Bai except him. And so far, no one has seen him appear except for hearing his news from the yamen runners."

"That's him."

Zheng Yixiang couldn't help pinching her eyebrows, and said helplessly, closing her eyes slightly, with a bitter smile on her face.

"I didn't expect that I worked so hard, but I only got a Taoist temple burned into ruins. He could catch such an important prisoner by drinking tea and listening to music in the city. This..."

Zheng Yixiang couldn't help but want to curse, but she still swallowed it back when she reached her mouth.

He knew that this was jealousy. The other party was not an orthodox Jinyiwei, and even that identity was given by Princess Xianyou. No matter how jealous he was, he could not do anything to the other party.

Moreover, compared to being jealous here, the most important thing now is to see if you can take advantage of this matter and make some contributions.

This time he let Mu Yixing run away under his nose, and the chances of trying to seize the other party are very slim, so he has to think of ways to avoid the punishment that he will definitely be punished this time.

"That Fang Ritu has been taken away by the people from the East Factory, right?"

Opening his eyes again, Zheng Yixiang's face returned to calm and asked in a deep voice.

"yes."

He nodded expressionlessly under his hand and responded.

"Hundred households, do you want to be directly..."

But immediately, he suggested.

"I'm still acting rashly for the time being."

Zheng Yixiang shook her head with a serious expression and denied his suggestion.

"It's okay, no more! We have done a little too much before in Zhangzhou Prefecture and the two orders before, and we have ordered them to follow me to arrest Mu Yixing these two times. If this time it's so excessive, it's hard to guarantee that these guys will not be in a hurry to jump over the wall in a hurry. Not to mention both sides will be too ugly in the face. After returning to Yingtian, if the eunuch is looking for trouble, Qianhu will inevitably suffer from face damage."

His subordinates did not speak anymore, but just stood there silently, looking like they were obedient.

Obviously he knew that Zheng Yixiang would definitely make a decision and order the next time.

"Apart from the star master of Tianyan Sect, isn't there another opera singer?"

Sure enough, after a moment of silence, Zheng Yixiang asked again.

"With that person's usual style of doing things, he will definitely not catch an innocent person for no reason. Lingyou must have a problem. Since he cannot get the star master of the Tianyan Sect from the Dongchang, let's start from this Lingyou to see if he can find any clues."

The subordinates took the order and left.

...

Hua Linlang, who was still unaware that he would fall into the same situation as Fang Ritu, was pretending to be innocent and dealing with the interrogation of the yamen runners.

Because the family was hereditary, the yamen runners were lingering in the yamen since childhood, which was not easy to deal with. However, Hua Linlang was not a simple and kind woman. Otherwise, how could he "uproot" the thing under his crotch after killing Chao Guanchao to vent his anger.

So when faced with the interrogation of the yamen runners, she pretended to be innocent and scared, pretending to be unaware of the interrogation of the yamen runners, and she only emphasized that she was just an actor who was performing opera in Guangyuan Teahouse, and the opera troupe in Guangyuan Teahouse could prove it to her.

The yamen runners were not fools either. They soon knew that she had reservations, so they were already discussing whether to torture her.

But just when the yamen runners were already deeply impatient and were about to let Hua Linlang suffer a little first, the captain of the Jinyiwei arrived.

Although Bai Shier, who was also the Jinyiwei, told them that Hua Linlang was not an important prisoner and they could do their own interrogation, but now that the Jinyiwei came to ask the people, they did not dare to hesitate at all. They immediately handed the people over to the other party and gave them a very considerate confession they had interrogated before.

Before, Hua Linlang, who looked like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, looked like a dead pig, and immediately became timid when she saw the somewhat overly bright official uniform of the Jinyiwei.

As a terrifying reputation among Jinyiwei and the East Factory, she naturally knew what would be welcomed.

Therefore, she was originally just cursing Bai Shier in her heart from time to time, and scolding her all the way in her heart.

...

"Ah Yeh! Ah Yeh! Ah Yeh!"

Bai Shier, who had already driven a carriage to carry Zhu Jinxuan away from Quanzhou Prefecture City, just after leaving Quanzhou Prefecture City, sneezed three loud sneezing in a row. The three sneezing came too unpredictable, so that after he stopped, he was a little confused.

"What's wrong? Is it okay? Did you catch a cold while surveillance outside the Zhenhai Gangtong Hall?"

Zhu Jinxuan, who was in the carriage, heard the sound of sneezing and immediately lifted the curtain, asked with concern.

"Nothing, maybe someone is scolding me."

After Bai Shier came to his senses, he seemed to have thought of something, and couldn't help laughing, waved his hand, and said very honestly.

"Call you? Are you the star master of Tianyan Sect?"

"No, I guess it's the other woman who is a little unlucky."

"woman?!"

Zhu Jinxuan couldn't help but show a little vigilant look in her eyes, and her voice also increased by half.

"Do you still remember the actor I told you that he was caught by Fang Ritu?"

Bai Shier naturally knew what she was thinking, so he had to quickly put away his smile and explain.

"she?"

But it is obvious that Bai Shier's explanation not only did not dispel Zhu Jinxuan's suspicion, but instead became increasingly "vigilant" towards him.

Perhaps it was because of women's innate talent or intuition that Zhu Jinxuan immediately felt that the actor who had been mentioned by Bai Shier was having a problem.

"Don't think about it."

Seeing this familiar expression, Bai Shier couldn't help feeling tired and helpless, but he had to quickly repeat the detailed retelling of the previous interrogation of Hua Linlang.

"Pooh."

After listening to Bai Shier's retelling, although the suspicion on Zhu Jinxuan's face disappeared, contempt and disgust once again occupied her pretty face, and she couldn't help but spat on her mouth.

"If I were that girl, I would definitely have to fight you at that time."

Zhu Jinxuan said this, but put down the curtain of the car in her hand and the man retracted into the carriage.

"If she hadn't been tied up and her mouth blocked, would you think she wouldn't?"

Seeing Zhu Jinxuan lower the curtain and retracting it into the carriage, Bai Shier knew that his "trouble" had disappeared, and a silent smirk appeared on his face.

"That girl won't have any trouble, right?"

Zhu Jinxuan couldn't help but stretched out her small fist from the carriage and hit him in the back, then asked with a little worry in her voice.

"Hey, I hope something happens to her, otherwise the yamen runners will definitely not get any useful confessions from him."

"Even if she didn't tell the truth and concealed something, would it still be too much for you to do this?"

Although Bai Shier said this, Zhu Jinxuan couldn't help but feel pity in her heart.

However, even so, she did not say anything about returning to the city to rescue Hua Linlang.

Bai Shier's identity must have been exposed. If she dares to show up again at this time, she might be targeted by the factory guards and even caught directly. Although she felt pity for Hua Linlang, she was still more concerned about the safety of her lover.

"Don't worry, none of these women who dare to walk alone are good people. Just those yamen runners can't do anything to her. I'm just..."

Bai Shier comforted Zhu Jinxuan in time.
