Rich and powerful

Inside, Cui Mingchong heard the sound of the door opening, opened his eyes suddenly, saw that it was Qi Rui, and asked, "Why are you back again?"

"My lord, this subordinate just met Lin Yunsan's third wife, Wu Na, who sneaked in in the small garden outside the courtyard!"

"Wu Na?" Cui Mingchong muttered, suddenly recalling that night, he was kidnapped by this foreign woman in Niubei Village.

He couldn't help frowning: "What is she doing here?"

"My lord, Na Wuna said that she came to deliver information under Lin Yun's order, and she insisted on telling you herself! She said it was about her life!"

Qi Rui's face was a bit ugly, he was the commander of the Ouchi guards responsible for Cui Mingchong's safety, and he said it himself, as if admitting that his guards had failed.

Cui Mingchong stood up abruptly and said, "Bring her in!"

As an official appointed by the imperial court and an imperial envoy hand-picked by the emperor, he naturally has a quick mind and a strong sense of urgency.

Seeing that he was going to return to Beijing tomorrow, he didn't want to make any mistakes.

In his eyes, Lin Yun was already quite a powerful local snake in the Yucheng area. He could not ignore the information sent by Lin Yun, whether he believed it or not, and he dared not ignore it.

Qi Rui nodded, turned around and opened the door, just in time to see Wu Na who was eavesdropping through the door, frowned and said, "Come in!"

Wu Na looked embarrassed, and stepped into the door as if nothing happened.

When he saw Cui Mingchong, he immediately grinned and said, "Old man, we meet again!"

"Bold! Seeing my imperial envoy, Da Duan Shenchao, as if meeting the emperor face to face, he still doesn't kneel down and salute!"

Qi Rui shouted loudly.

In fact, it doesn't matter whether he said it or not.

But Qi Rui just wanted to destroy her prestige.

But Wu Na is not easy to provoke, she sneered and said: "Don't tell me to kneel this old thing, even if you are the emperor's old man, I will never kneel!"

"you!"

Qi Rui was furious, murderous intent burst out in his eyes.

It was the first time he heard such rebellious words in his many years as an official.

At this time, Cui Mingchong waved his hands and said: "Okay! Qi Rui, this girl is not a citizen of my Daduan Dynasty, so don't kneel if you don't kneel!"

Only then did Qi Rui's expression soften.

Immediately, Cui Mingchong looked at Wu Na, playing with the taste: "Little girl, I didn't expect us to meet again so soon! I heard that you came to give me information? What happened?"

"What happened, I don't know! In the daytime, my husband was invited by that autumn day, and met alone at the mansion! Afterwards, my husband asked me to send you a message, and he said, 'Going back to Beijing is dangerous...be careful!' "

Wu Na imitated Lin Yun's tone and said.

Cui Mingchong immediately frowned and fell into deep thought.

After Qi Rui heard the news, he said angrily: "What kind of information is this? You said it but you didn't say it! Did Lin Yun say what it was? For example, who wants to harm my lord?"

Wu Na rolled her eyes and said, "How would I know?"

"you!"

Qi Rui was deflated again, it was the first time he met someone who was ignorant and yet so righteous.

Wu Na imitated Lin Yun's expression again, showing a meaningful smile, and said: "My husband-in-law also said that as long as I say these words, this old man will definitely understand what they mean! She also said that if I really don’t understand, then this imperial envoy is nothing more than that!”

The last two sentences were obviously added by herself.

As for how old and cunning Cui Mingchong was, when Wu Na and Qi Rui were bickering, he finally had the answer in his heart.

This time I came here by the emperor's order, and I did a lot of good things along the way, but if I really want to say that I offended someone, Qiu Guangri is the only one.

Recalling that he gave Qiu Guangri a big mouth last night, he finally realized it.

Nodding with a smile, he said: "I understand! Little girl, although you have always been disrespectful to me, but for the sake of your kindness to send information this time, I don't have the same knowledge as you!"

"Bah! You old bastard is really shameless! If my husband-in-law didn't stop me last time, you..."

Oona looked her up and down provocatively, but finally endured it.

She knew very well that Cui Mingchong was discussing business with her husband, and she didn't want to really offend him.

But Cui Mingchong was still not angry, and said with a smile: "Okay! Go back and say thank you to Mr. Lin for me! Also, let him pay attention!"

Oona nodded, then turned and left.

But when she got to the door, she suddenly thought of something, turned around and said, "Old man, although I'm not sure if you know who is going to deal with you, I still want to remind you, don't be a sedan chair, it's better to pretend , Don’t be recognized by others!”

Cui Mingchong frowned, before he could ask any more questions, Wu Na had already left.

When Qi Rui came to the door, Wu Na had disappeared into the vast night.

"What a fast movement!!" Qi Rui said with emotion, closed the door and turned around and asked, "My lord, what is going on?"

Cui Mingchong laughed jokingly, and said, "It seems that my coming to Yucheng this time touched the interests of some people!"

"Then what did Wuna's last sentence mean?"

Cui Mingchong shook his head and said, "I don't know, and I don't need to know! Qi Rui, you can arrange it and do it according to this girl's wishes. Find someone to ride in a sedan chair, and I will ride back to Beijing on horseback!"

Qi Rui was taken aback, and said: "My lord, Yucheng is far away from the capital, your body must not be able to bear it!"

"Okay, I'm not a soft-legged shrimp, why can't I take it? Go down!"

Qi Rui nodded and left.

There were no outsiders in the room, so Cui Mingchong sat back on the grand teacher's chair again, stared at the ceiling, and murmured: "Qiu Guangri, you are so bold! Anyway, I want to see if your courage is backed up by your strength!"

Cui Mingchong is not stupid either, he just beat Qiu Guangri last night, and was threatened with death the next day.

If he hadn't known that Lin Yun was an ally with him, Cui Mingchong couldn't believe it would be true.

On the other side, Lin Yun and Zheng Li returned the same way and passed by Nayi Village again.

Since it was getting late, the two of them were on their way without stopping, and they were also worried about encountering accidents on the road.

But that's it, the more you worry about something, the more you will come.

Zheng Li suddenly discovered that a group of people appeared on the official road ahead.

The men were all on horseback, motionless.

If it weren't for the occasional neighing of a horse, everyone would have thought it was a dummy.

Zheng Li frowned, and said in a low voice, "Master!"

Lin Yun naturally saw it too, and said in a deep voice, "Give me a bamboo gun!"

Zheng Li knew that he was going to do something, so he quickly handed over the bamboo gun.

Lin Yun tightened the reins with one hand, and checked the bamboo gun with the other.

But at this moment, an arrow feather suddenly crossed his shoulder.

Lin Yun was not injured, but the clothes on his right arm were cut.

He understood that the opponent wanted to kill him with one blow, but because of the bumps on his horse, he missed his head.
