After waiting for a long time, it was finally Chen An and his group of people who were in charge of the investigation into the city.

"The escort business under Yunqing's sect? Who are you escorting? Where are you going?"

A tall and thin man in charge of the checkpoint was stern. He frowned when he saw the dart flag in the carriage behind Sun's head.

"If you go back to Jun Ye, the one who is escorting a pair of young masters and servants will be escorted to Yongping Mansion, the final destination of the trip." Sun Paoto rarely put away his usual arrogance, and seemed to dare not make random rashes in front of the other side.

When the tall and thin man heard this, he walked straight towards the carriage.

He waved his hand to repel the bodyguard who was driving the carriage, then used the spear in his hand to lift the curtain of the carriage and looked in. As a result, he saw a young man with a cold expression, holding a frightened little girl in his arms and looking at each other.

"I dare to ask if the one in your arms is Miss Tang Xuanfu's daughter!"

Unexpectedly, as soon as the tall and thin man opened his mouth, the atmosphere around him instantly became tense and solidified.

"So what, so what, no?"

Chen An held the steel knife hidden behind him tightly and said calmly.

"Bi Zhi and others are ordered by Tang Xuanfu, and are specially waiting for the arrival of their families at Yanshan Pass at any time." The tall and thin soldier suddenly bowed with his fists.

"Ah... Did my father ask you to pick us up?"

The little girl in Chen An's arms exclaimed, and in an instant, her little face turned her head excitedly and looked at the tall and thin pawn outside the car and said.

"So you are really Miss Tang?" said a smile on his tall and thin man with a serious face. "What I said is true. Tang Xuanfu did not have to do with me some time ago. We were here to wait for the arrival of the Miss and others."

"It's really my father, it's really my father who came to pick me up..." The little girl sobbed in joy and grabbed Chen An's hand, but as she spoke, she couldn't help but cry with sadness. "But, my mother can never see her father again, wuwu..."

The tall and thin soldier immediately changed his expression, and at the same time he stared at Chen An and said coldly. "Dare you ask, what happened to Tang Xuanfu's wife?"

"They were attacked by robbers on the road..."

Chen An looked at the tall and thin man expressionlessly, and told all the things that happened to the little girl and her daughter.

The tall and thin soldier was silent for a long time and said, "I'd like to thank the young lady for mourning. I believe that Lord Tang Xuanfu will investigate this matter clearly and give her wife an explanation!"

After saying that, he turned to Chen An and clasped his fists and said, "I am here to thank your Excellency Gao Yi for your behalf. If you hadn't helped you, Tang Xuanfu would have completely separated his family from his family."

The situation in the carriage made the corpses at Yunqingmen around him stunned, especially Sun's corpses himself, and he didn't expect that the person they escorted was so good! The problem was that Chen An had never told them at that time! Thinking back on his arrogant and rude attitude in front of the other side, he was deliberately pushing him into the fire pit!

Fortunately, no one paid attention to Sun Piaotou's inner confusion, because the tall and thin soldier walked up to him and said bluntly that they would take over and escort Tang Xuanfu's daughter to Yongping Mansion, and they could go back home directly.

Sun Piaotou was amnesty for this. He explained the situation to his employer Chen An. After receiving the approval, he immediately took the escort businessmen and left Yanshan Pass.

"This righteous man and Miss Tang, please come with me. Later, Shangguan, who is a humble official, will come to welcome the two of you later."

The tall and thin man returned to the carriage and bowed to Chen An.

...

After the carriage slowly drove into Yanshan Pass, the tall and thin soldier arranged Chen An and the little girl into a single-family courtyard, and immediately claimed that they had other important tasks to leave for the time being. They would come to pick them up for the reception banquet later.

Unlike the little girl's joyful and joyful feelings, Chen An maintained an indifferent look from beginning to end, as if he was completely at the mercy of the other party.

He was not surprised that Tang Xuanfu ordered people to wait for the arrival of his family in advance. He was strange about how the tall and thin soldier recognized the little girl's identity at a glance! This is strange to normal people, so he dared to conclude that someone must have secretly informed the other party about their whereabouts and characteristics, otherwise it would be difficult to explain the tall and thin soldier's "sensing people with wise eyes".

So who would this person be? Tang Xuanfu? Or those behind the scenes who were not good for Tang Xuanfu?

Before a clear result, Chen An would never dare to act rashly.

Because this is Yanshan Pass, where three thousand soldiers are stationed, once he resists, he may get the other party to seize the handle and then falsely accuses the thief and dispatch troops to kill him. Chen An did not think that he could protect the little girl in this situation and fight a way out, so he could only choose to wait and see.

After the tall and thin soldier left, he found that there were obviously soldiers guarding the gate outside the yard, and I'm afraid that the possibility of his intention to go out was slim.

Seeing that dusk was approaching, the other party would come to the door at any time, Chen An immediately began to prepare for precautions. He found two sheathed sharp daggers from the spoils hidden in the carriage, one hidden in the boots, and the other handed to the little girl with a confused look on her face, and repeatedly reminded her to hide the daggers.

After all, no one knows whether the welcome banquet that will be the Hongmen Banquet. It is impossible to prevent problems before they happen.

Soon, the tall and thin man returned, and at the same time he said that his Shangguan had set up a reception banquet for the two of them in the mansion.

Chen An tentatively refused on the pretext of being tired from the journey, while the tall and thin man was very persistent, and it was obvious that he was making things difficult for others to prepare. In the end, he directly asked the accompanying soldiers to prepare carriages outside the yard, just waiting for them to get on the carriage to the banquet.

Seeing that things cannot be done, the stalemate will undoubtedly cause greater conflicts, so he had no choice but to agree.

When he was about to go out with a knife, he was sure to stop him. According to him, the governor's office was not allowed to enter with a knife.

At this time, if Chen An was not clear about the other party's intentions, he would be really stupid.

People are the slaughter and I am the slaughter.

Could it be that he is now attacking and is it better to start first?

It is not difficult to kill the tall and thin soldiers in front of you and the soldiers around you. What is difficult is how should he escape from the encirclement and interception of Yanshan Pass after committing a real crime?

Reason tells Chen An not to act impulsively and to respond to changes in the moment.

Then, he and the little girl boarded the carriage to the governor's mansion.

After arriving at the Governor's Mansion, the soldiers of the mansion searched Chen An unexpectedly, and the dagger hidden in the boots was not hidden from the other party. Fortunately, they did not search the little girl for ethics and saved him the only weapon he had hidden in the little girl just in case.

The Wei Mansion is quite vast. Walk straight from the front yard corridor, pass through the second ritual door, and further forward is the lobby of the Wei Mansion.

At this time, the lanterns of the Governor's Mansion were hung high, and soldiers on duty could be seen everywhere under the corridors and eaves. When we arrived at the lobby, the first thing that caught our eyes was a large round table in the center of the hall for more than 20 people to sit. A general wearing armor sat opposite the round table. I think it was the Governor of Yanshanguan who invited the two to the banquet this time.

When he saw the two, the commander-in-chief did not want to get up to greet them. He just smiled and bowed to them, waved his hand to ask them to sit down and called the maid beside him to start serving.

"In Xiayanshan Pass, Yin Cheng, the governor of Tang Xuanfu, I have met the daughter of Tang Xuanfu and this hero!"

Unlike the little girl's restraint, Chen An bowed her hand coldly in response to Yin Cheng's seemingly heroic and straightforward greetings.

"I heard that the two of them had experienced ups and downs before they arrived at Yanshan Pass. I deeply condolences for the misfortune encountered by my sister-in-law."

After the maid finished tea, Yin Cheng specially picked up the cup at the table and raised it to the two of them and said.

Out of politeness, the little girl was about to raise a glass of tea, but Chen An stopped her.

"This hero? What do you mean?"

Seeing this, Yin Cheng's face suddenly became gloomy.

"Gui Yin, I also want to ask you, what is your intention to force us to come to the banquet?"

Chen An was too lazy to be silly with the other party, so he simply went straight to the point.

"Hahaha... what you said is exactly what I want. I don't want to play false things with you anymore, so I'm just beating around the bush!!"

Yin Cheng suddenly burst into laughter, and at the same time, a group of soldiers suddenly poured into the lobby and surrounded them.

He stood up, pressed his hands on the table, staring at Chen An and said, "I am entrusted by someone to get something back from you!"

"Are you talking about the token that is related to Zuo Gong's Secret Treasure?" Chen An immediately realized.

"What do you think I ask for except it?" Yin Cheng sneered.

"I'm sorry to tell you that I don't have the token you want here." Chen An said in a deep voice.

"Haha, if you say there is no, you don't have it. Do you think I'm a three-year-old child so easy to cheat?!"

Yin Cheng slapped the table with both hands, but the little girl beside Chen An was so scared that she screamed with a pale face. She hugged Chen An, her whole head buried in Chen An's arms and kept trembling.

"I did find a token in the items left by Mrs. Tang Xuanfu before, but the token was fake. Chen Qing from Xuanzhou can testify to this." Chen An stretched out his hand to comfort the little girl, while secretly taking out the hidden dagger from her waist.

"Haha, interesting, you actually testified to me with a dead person!" Yin Cheng grinned and said with a cruel smile. "Don't think I didn't know that you wanted to fool Chen Qing with a fake token. Who would have thought that after Chen Qing happened to see through, you would just kill him! I will tell you now that if you don't tell the whereabouts of the token, no one of you two will want to get out of here today!"

"It seems that there is nothing to say between us." Chen An said calmly. "Do you know how to shrink the ground into an inch?"

"What a ghost to know about your mother!"

As soon as Yin Cheng yelled out this swear word, Chen An in front of him suddenly disappeared strangely.

"Do you know what mistake you made?"

At this time, a whisper like a devil rang in Yin Cheng's ears, and a cold chill appeared in his neck.

Chen An appeared behind Yin Cheng at some point, and at the same time, the daggers and blades unsheathed in his hand drew a bloodline on Yin Cheng's neck.
