Back at the inn, Jiang Anyi immediately asked Shi Tou to pack up his things and moved to Yuan's house - Qing Zhan Envoy's Office.

The failure to explore Jishantang at night has a great blow to Jiang Anyi. His confidence has been growing wildly and encountered a wave of hail. The broken branches and leaves fall all over the ground. Learning from the pain, Jiang Anyi began to re-examine his inflated self-confidence. After being hit, his confidence is likely to turn into inferiority, and the chest injury is painful. Jiang Anyi believes that Jiang Jian is better than him, and there is no hope of stealing the secret contract.

This is a good thing for Jiang Anyi. The eighteen-year-old top scholar understands the importance of life. No matter how much glory you have, it will be easily taken away by a sharp arrow. Caution is a virtue, and Jiang Anyi keeps it in mind.

A veteran came in and reported, "Mr. Jiang, Lord. Yu asked you to go to the lobby."

The lobby of the Qing Dynasty envoy was set up in the main hall of the Sanjin House. Yu Zhijie was checking the official documents after the case. There were several piles of books and other information piled up on the table. Jiang Anyi placed the oil-paper umbrella in front of the door, slapped the rainwater splashed on his body, and went into the house to salute Master Yu.

Hearing Jiang Anyi's tribute, Yu Zhijie raised his head, his face was as deep as water, staring at Jiang Anyi without saying a word. Jiang Anyi was nervous, Master Yu was angry with me?

"An Yi, you disappointed me so much."

Yu Zhijie's tone was heavy, which scared Jiang Anyi to the point of being swayed. Has the incident of visiting Li Zhuang at night been revealed?

"Li Mingde came this morning and said that you had a engagement with a woman in another clan. An Yi, what's going on? Why don't you know when you got engaged with someone?" Yu Zhijie was very angry. Not to mention that since this matter is of great importance, just from the identity of the heaven, earth, the king, and the parents, as a teacher, how can Jiang Anyi not tell himself that he had a engagement with someone?

It turned out that this was the case. Jiang Anyi let go of most of his heart and smiled and said, "Master Yu, listen to my explanation. This incident happened suddenly..."

Jiang Anyi met his roommate Li Shicheng, but his family was imprisoned. In order to save Li Shicheng's family, he said he had an engagement with Dong'er, the sister of Li Shicheng. Of course, Jiang Anyi did not say that he entered Li Zhuang at night, but only said that he met Li Shicheng on the road.

Yu Zhijie's face was a little calmer and said, "In order to save people, you have the right to do things. It's not a big mistake for you. You just have to give someone an explanation afterwards and don't give anyone a message."

"Yes", Jiang Anyi nodded honestly and agreed.

He signaled Jiang Anyi to sit down, Yu Zhijie said: "Li Mingde came to showdown today, threatening and winning over, saying that the aristocratic family is powerful and it is hard to support his teacher. He also promised that as long as he is willing to end up with two thousand hectares of land, the Li family will fully help him to be promoted to the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. Haha, being a teacher is a timid person who is afraid of things and greedy for power."

"However, I heard a little decisive in my tone of my disciple Li Mingde, and I should prevent the Li family from rushing to make trouble, and it will not end at that time." Yu Zhijie frowned and said, "I have already reported to the emperor and ask the emperor to show me. It is not advisable to force me too quickly in front of me."

The officialdom is in a state of ups and downs. Yu Zhijie has seen many capsized incidents, so how could he act accidentally?

The wind and rain outside the house were getting stronger and stronger. The slanted wind blew in from the window frame, moistening the account books on the table. Jiang Anyi hurriedly greeted the soldiers under the corridor to paste the window frame with oil paper.

The room became darker, and Yu Zhijie sighed: "The wind and rain in late autumn are the coolest people's hearts. It is difficult to do things, but it is difficult to do things."

Jiang Anyi smiled and said, "Master Yu, you often warn Anyi to face difficulties. The Qing Dynasty has many difficulties in pursuing land and acres, so the emperor chose Master Yu to break the ice. As long as you are in the heart of the emperor, all the hard work is worth it."

Jiang Anyi's words swept away the fear of difficulties that Yu Zhijie had, and his eyes became brighter. Yu Zhijie smiled and said, "Any Anyi's words are fundamentally speaking, and he has lost his composure."

Rejuvenating his spirits, Yu Zhijie arranged: "There is nothing to do in Anqi County for the time being. Anyi, go to Xingguo County and help Yushan. Huang Xinqing of Xingguo County is a big landlord and the Li family's in-laws. See if he can open the gap from the side."

Jiang Anyi was a little puzzled. Ren Guoqiang was there in Xingguo County, but later Liu Yushan went there again. Now Master Yu asked him to go there again. Could something happened in Xingguo County?

Sure enough, Yu Zhijie sighed: "I sent Ren Guoqiang to investigate the land, but this person actually married Huang Xinqing's adopted daughter and moved into the Huang family. After Yushan left, he found out the evidence that the Huang family embezzled the land. Unexpectedly, the Huang family and the magistrate of Xingguo County were in a turmoil and sent people to burn the secret contract overnight. Ren Guoqiang actually helped Huang Xinqing attack Yushan, saying that Yushan was greedy for merit and accused Liang of being a thief, which was really annoying."

First, Zhang Liangkuan hangs himself, then Ren Guoqiang recognizes the thief as his father. Yu Zhijie also heard that Wan Huaide received the silver from the Li family, and several others are said to have secretly dated the Li family. Among the ten people he brought, only An Yi, Yu Shan and Xiang Dongrong could trust him. The emperor's purpose of choosing good talents was probably half of the time.

Jiang Anyi thought of the masters of the Li family. What should he do if the Li family sends people to deal with Master Yu?

"An Yi, this time you go to Xingguo County, you bring a few people with you, and they will help you." Yu Zhijie seemed a little mysterious and shouted loudly: "You two come in."

The two of them came in and bowed to show. Although they were wearing the uniform of soldiers, they were filled with energy and looked like they were not ordinary soldiers at first glance.

Yu Zhijie smiled and said, "An Yi, last month, I issued an order to let Long Wei send ten good men to protect him. The risk of going to Xingguo County is unpredictable. I will let the Xiang brothers go with you and be responsible for the safety of you and Yushan."

Jiang Anyi felt warm in his heart. Master Yu did not know that he could do martial arts, so he asked Longwei to protect his safety. Anqi County is the home of the Li family, and the existence of Longwei could intimidate the Li family. Although there are thousands of village heads in the Li family, they would never dare to touch the rest unless they choose.

Jiang Anyi let go of his mind and went to Xingguo County with peace of mind.

The Xiang brothers, Xiang Jingjian and Xiang Jingshi are both men in their early thirties, with wide eyebrows and wide mouths and beards. The two brothers look very similar. The eldest brother Jingjian is shorter and talks less.

Xingguo County is more than 100 miles away from Anqi County, and it is mostly sand and gravel roads. It is raining in the sky and the ground is bumpy. The three of them have to jump over their horses and lead them around from time to time. In an afternoon, they only took more than 30 miles.

The sky was already dark, Xiang Jing was really anxious, wiped the rain on his face, turned his head to Jiang Anyi and said, "Young Master Jiang, I'm afraid I'm going to miss Guantou tonight. In ghost weather, there is not even a place to shelter from the rain."

Xiang Jingjian rode his horse to a high slope, looked around for a moment, then rode his horse back, and replied, "Young Master Jiang, there is a village five or six miles away, and I see the lights."

The village is located in a valley, with only thirty or forty families. There is a land temple at the entrance of the village, which is quite neat and no one guards it. After Xiang Jingjian saw it, the three of them tied their horses to the straw shed behind the temple. Jiang Anyi fed the horses, Xiang Jingjian made a fire, and Xiang Jingshi was ready to eat them.

When Jiang Anyi stepped into the temple, the fire was bright in the middle of the temple, and the oil-coat rack was emitting white air. Xiang Jingjian was used to walking in the rivers and lakes. Water was burning on the wooden racks, and the oil cakes prepared in advance were taken out from the bags and baked on the fire. The entire temple was filled with the fragrance of scallion oil.

Xiang Jingshi walked in with a smile, holding two big hens in his hand, squatting in front of the door and quickly plucking the hair and getting rid of the dirty. It seemed that he had done a lot of stealing things on weekdays.

Half an hour later, the three of them had dried their clothes and sat on the ground, tearing the fat chicken with their hands, and biting the oil cake with big mouthfuls of chicken soup, which had a unique flavor.

Xiang Jingshi took out a flat pot from his arms. Jiang Anyi had seen the same thing on Qin Ziyan and knew it was a wine pot.

There is good wine on a cold night, and life is a happy event. Three people drink wine and eat vegetables in one sip. Xiang Jingshi tells some rules in the world, and Jiang Anyi listens with relish.

"Dadadadadada", there were dense sounds of horse hooves outside the temple, and the three of them were stunned. You must know that this village is not on the main road and is close to the second day of the year. How could anyone pass by?

Xiang Jingjian winked, reached out and blocked the oil in front of the fire, stood up and disappeared silently in the darkness. Xiang Jingshi obviously didn't care about his elder brother's caution, and he still sat down, siping wine in small sips.

Jiang Anyi tore the oil cake in his hand into small pieces, but he was paying attention to the movement outside. There were noisy people outside the temple and the sound of horse hooves, with at least four or five horses.

"Jiang Ye, there is a land temple here, why don't we deal with it for one night?"

"Okay, Li Quan, you can see if you can shelter from the rain."

Jiang Anyi was stunned, his voice was familiar, and Jiang Jian immediately appeared in his mind. It was really a narrow road for enemies. He could actually meet him in this wilderness.

With the sound of footsteps, a big man rushed in and saw the fire and the people retreating. Li Quan's reply came from outside the temple, "Jiang Ye, there are already people in the temple. The place is very narrow and cannot be squeezed. We can only stay in the village."

The sound of horse hooves headed towards the village, and the barking of dogs came one after another, and it took a while to calm down.

Xiang Jingjian flashed out of the darkness, reached out to roast on the fire, and whispered: "Five people, the leader is a good man, I wonder who it is?"

"I'm from the Li family. I've heard that sound, so there shouldn't be any mistakes."

Xiang Jingjian looked at Jiang Anyi suspiciously and thought, "I heard that Chen Hongming and his disciples are serving as worshipers in the Li Mansion. If the young master said it well, it should be Jiang Jian, the Binger. This guy is not staying in Lizhuang, why are he here for three o'clock in the middle of the night?"

"Cold-bing hand Jiang Jian?" Xiang Jingshi put down the wine pot in his hand, and a shocked look appeared on his face. It seemed that Jiang Jian had a great reputation.

Jiang Anyi had little understanding of the affairs of the world, so he took this opportunity to ask: "Is this man very powerful? I said a few words to him last time to visit Li's mansion, why did he think he was like a farmer?" That day, in the inner city, with the light of torches, Jiang Anyi saw that Jiang Jian was not tall, but solid, and indeed like a farmer.

After hearing Jiang Anyi say that Jiang Jian is like a farmer, Xiang Jingjian confirmed that the person coming was Jiang Jian.

Xiang Jingshi glanced at Jiang Anyi with contempt and said, "Farmer, you have such a good eye. No wonder, you are a scholar and don't know the world. This Jiang Jian is famous and is known as the top ten masters of the younger generation. My old Xiang and three are tied together, but they are no match for others."

Seeing Jiang Anyi's eyes were bright and interested, Xiang Jingshi took a sip of wine and continued: "Jiang Jian was born in Liuhua Sect. His master Chen Hongming is an elder of Liuhua Sect. He is known as "Xuanbian". He was imprisoned in prison after committing an incident in Chenzhou. Master Li Cheng was an assassination officer in Chenzhou. After saving him once, the old boy was willing to go to the Li family to worship..."

"Stop talking nonsense," Xiang Jingjian said to his younger brother, silently ate all the cakes in his hand, stood up and said, "Second, don't drink wine, beware of sleep, you go to bed first, change me to the fourth day."
