Qingyu Case: Female Minister of Dali Temple

Chen Shao and Gu Feiyan took a step forward at the same time.

"When did it happen?" Chen Shao asked, "Where did you get the news?"

"Yesterday morning," the elite soldier quickly replied, "Lord Sun, the governor of Yunnan, sent someone to ask for your help. He is outside."

Chen Shao and Gu Feiyan looked at each other, murderous intent flashed in their eyes.

"Bring the person in!" Chen Shao ordered.

After the elite soldiers left, Chen Shao looked at Gu Feiyan, who said, "I'll make arrangements right away!"

The man was in his forties, lean and sturdy. He knelt down and kowtowed as soon as he entered the room, saying, "I am Huang Sixi, the humble servant, to greet you, sir. I beg you to save the miners at the Mengshe Smelting Supervisor!"

Chen Shao said coldly: "What's going on? Explain it clearly!"

Huang Sixi hurriedly said, "Yesterday morning, the Jizi Cave, Gengzi Cave, and Xinzi Cave of the iron mine under the supervision of Mengshe Smelting Supervision suddenly collapsed. At the time of the collapse, there were nearly 30 people working in the three caves. Although our elders organized rescue personnel as soon as they learned the news, but..."

Huang Sixi burst into tears as he spoke.

Chen Shao clenched his fist calmly: "Why did it suddenly collapse when there was nothing going on?"

Huang Sixi shook his head: "I don't know. When our Lord learned about the collapse of the iron mine, he immediately sent me here to ask for help. I only stopped twice to drink water on the way here. I was almost non-stop, so it was difficult for me to find out the situation of Mengshe Smelting Supervisor."

Chen Shao half mocked and half said: "You mean, I should praise you a few more times?"

Huang Sixi quickly said, "I dare not."

Chen Shao snorted coldly.

They were all people who had followed Gu Feiyan in battles for many years, so their movements were extremely agile. With just a few words, everything was ready.

Human life was at stake, so Chen Shao did not delay any further. After asking Gu Feiyan to leave ten elite soldiers to guard the safety of Zhang Ruyuan and others, he abandoned the carriage and mounted his horse, galloping all the way.

Three days later.

Blackstone Cliff.

The wind was blowing, as if someone was crying.

Chen Shao and Gu Feiyan reined in their horses at the same time, took a look at the cliff with towering rocks, and then immediately followed Huang Sixi all the way to the middle of the mountain.

Mengshe Smelting Prison is located halfway up the Black Stone Cliff.

"Sir, Sir Chen and General Gu are here," Huang Sixi rode first and arrived in front of the iron mine. Without waiting for his horse to stop, he dismounted and rushed to Sun Guishan, who was directing the rescue at the collapsed mine entrance, and reported loudly, "General Gu is here with his elite troops to rescue us!"

Sun Guishan and the people around him turned around in unison and saw Chen Shao and Gu Feiyan striding over. Sun Guishan hurriedly patted the dust off his body, strode over, knelt on the ground, kowtowed and cried: "It is my fault for not taking good care of them. I am willing to die to apologize. Please grant my wish!"

"Your Excellency is wise," the officials from the prefectural governor's office and Yaocheng County knelt down and kowtowed, "The collapse of the iron mine was caused by the poor supervision of the mine supervisor and his supervisors and foremen. Lord Sun has been directing the rescue for days and has hardly slept a wink. Even if he has no merit, he has worked hard. If you really want to punish us, then punish us!"

"Punish you?" Chen Shao couldn't help but smile. On the way here, she had been thinking about how to capture Sun Guishan and his accomplices without affecting the rescue. She didn't expect that before she could come up with a solution, they were so impatient that they sent it to her first. It was really a piece of cake to get it without any effort!

"Okay," Chen Shao said calmly, "I'm new here, and if I don't help you, it would seem like I'm ruthless! Come on, tie them all up and throw them into the sixth and tenth mines, and keep them under strict guard!"

"Sir!" Everyone was shocked.

The elite soldiers swarmed forward and soon tied up everyone.

As they were dragged to the mine, someone finally came to his senses and struggled to shout, "Sir, spare my life. The collapse of the iron mine is none of my business!"

One has two.

Soon, everyone started shouting.

Chen Shao ignored it.

After the collapse of Ji Cave, Geng Cave and Xin Cave, only the construction of Wu Cave and Ren Cave separated from them was stopped. The construction of Jia Cave, Yi Cave, Bing Cave, Ding Cave and Gui Cave is still in normal operation, and now it is just the right time to imprison them.

The elite soldiers had no idea of ​​being gentle with women. They threw the man roughly into the mine and closed the door.

The mine had no lights from the logistics point and was completely dark.

Whether actively or passively, there were 37 people who pleaded for Sun Guishan. The 37 people were divided into two groups, 19 in one cave and 18 in another. Sun Guishan and Sun Guihe were both imprisoned in Wuzi Cave.

Hearing the sound of the mine door closing, Sun Guihe used both legs to kick the person who fell on him away, and called softly, "Brother?"

Whether it was intentional or not, the first person the elite soldiers threw into the mine was Sun Guishan. Of the 18 people after him, at least one of them hit him. The mine was uneven, and Sun Guishan was hit hard. Fortunately, he was born a bandit, and even though he had lived a life of luxury for many years, his body was still strong. In addition, he wore thick winter clothes, so he was not seriously injured.

After a short pause, when the pain subsided, he heard Sun Guihe's voice and replied, "I'm here."

In the darkness, Sun Guihe could only judge the direction by the sound. His hands and feet were tied. After yelling at the person in front to get out of the way, he rolled over and asked softly, "Brother, are you okay?"

Sun Guishan shook his head: "No, what about you?"

"Neither do I." Sun Guihe glanced at the mine entrance, then at the dozen people in front of him, and asked in a low voice, "Isn't it said that one should not blame the masses? What's the matter with this Lord Chen and General Gu?"

Sun Guishan didn't say anything, but the dozen or so people in front of them started talking.

The content of the discussion is not much different.

Sun Guishan listened and couldn't help looking at the cave entrance. There were elite soldiers guarding the cave entrance. If he wanted to rush in, it would be difficult to succeed with the martial arts of those elite soldiers without anyone to help him. Going deeper into the mine cave... there was no connection between the mine caves. In other words, if he wanted to get out, he could only rush in from the cave entrance.

This happened suddenly, so we have to find a way to get the rolling dragon to come down the mountain to provide support.

"Brother, brother..." Sun Guihe said a lot of words to more than ten people. Seeing that Sun Guishan didn't respond at all, he couldn't help but raise his shoulder and bumped him in panic.

Sun Guishan came back to his senses and asked in a low voice, "Huang Sixi is in this cave, or is it another cave?"

Sun Guihe said: "I didn't pay attention."

"Look for him quickly," Sun Guishan ordered in a low voice, "He is also in this cave, pull him to the back."

He had to quickly confirm whether Guo Wenli had reported the matter to Chen Shao. If he had, he could not stay here for long. If he had not, he would have time to slowly figure out a safe solution.

Chen Shao's guess was correct. After Guo Wenli realized that Sun Guishan had impersonated someone else and left, the people who had praised Sun Guishan to him immediately alertly told the yamen runners about his situation.

As soon as Sun Guishan learned the news, he sent more than 20 soldiers to hunt him down in different directions.

Two of them caught up with Chen Shao's team before him, guessing that he might complain to Chen Shao, and deliberately mixed in with the people lining the road to welcome him, preparing to ambush and kill him as soon as he appeared. However, the two of them had planned everything, but they did not expect Guo Wenli to block their way in the mountains and forests.

The two followed Chen Shao back to Black Rock Cliff. They wanted to find an opportunity to tell Sun Guishan the news, but they didn't expect that Sun Guishan was locked up first. The two didn't dare to get close, so they had to go down the mountain to find Gundilong.

Chen Shao's side.

After Sun Guishan and others were thrown into the mine and imprisoned, the foremen of Jizi Cave, Gengzi Cave and Xinzi Cave, who had not requested orders together because of their insufficient status, were called to the front.
