Chapter 421: Bold

"Dead, how did you die?!" The prince of Shu stared at his black-clothed subordinates in front of him, with a look of astonishment on his face.

The black-clothed subordinate told him the truth: "The subordinates were just answering in the Zhuangzi, but who knew that the man suddenly ran over, saying that there were pursuers, and asked his subordinates to hide him." The time was urgent, and his subordinates didn't have time to ask more, so he asked him to hide in the firewood room in the backyard, thinking that he would have to talk about it. Later, when they went out to inquire about the news, their subordinates found out that since the pursuers were from the Imperial City's Secret Spy Department! That person came from Beirong, and if the people from the Secret Spy Department were to find out, wouldn't even their subordinates be unlucky? Therefore, the subordinates found an excuse to fool the officers and soldiers who were questioning, and immediately ran back to their residences, stuffed the man into a cart, and transported the person to another family in the same village when it was dark and the others were not paying attention. ”

The prince of Shu hurriedly asked, "What kind of family is it?!"

The black-clothed subordinate hurriedly said: "It's an ordinary Zhuang family, the family is quite well-off, the old lady who just died in the family, is doing a funeral these days, and the funeral will be held in a few days." It's just that the sons are fighting endlessly for the mother's private money, and it's not a good thing. The youngest son of that family doesn't do serious things on weekdays, he fools around, and his subordinates occasionally take care of him to do something shady, but he is still clever and tight-mouthed. It took twenty taels of silver for his subordinates to persuade him to lend the family's carport and let the man hide for a few hours. When the people from the secret spy department are gone, it's not too late to release them. That night it was the youngest son's turn to keep a watch, not afraid that his brothers would find out. ”

The prince of Shu frowned and said, "Since you have arranged it thoroughly, why is that person still dead?"

The black-clothed subordinate replied: "The subordinates originally thought that they would hide people in the carport, and now there is only an old ox cart in the carport, which is ready to be used to transport coffins, and there will be no time to borrow it in the next few days, and the cow is not there, so naturally no one will go to the carport." When the spy is gone, the man will come out of the carport again, and it will be convenient to go anywhere. We won't be in charge of the rest of the matter. But the man refused to obey, saying that he was worried that his men would not know whether they had escaped safely, and asked his subordinates to find the two men to meet him. The people of the Imperial City's Secret Spy Department were hanging in Zhuangzi, so how could his subordinates dare to venture to find his two subordinates? If the person who called the Secret Spy Department became suspicious, wouldn't he have thrown himself into the net? At the beginning, he said that his subordinates would not interfere in their affairs, and that person had already violated the contract if he fled to his subordinates. If it weren't for the safety and great cause of the prince, his subordinates would never help him hide, and this would be a great risk! However, the man did not understand this truth, and asked him how he was targeted by the people of the secret spy department, but he refused to elaborate, only that he was unlucky to meet him halfway. After asking too much, he threatened his subordinates, saying that if he didn't do what he said, he would tell the people of the Imperial City's secret spy department about the prince!"

The prince of Shu suddenly sank his face: "Presumptuous!"

The black-clothed subordinate gritted his teeth and said, "The subordinates also think that is too presumptuous." If in the past, he had a lot of people under him and a lot of ways, for the great cause of the prince, he needed to rely on that person for a few points, and respect him, and it would be okay. But now his manpower is almost completely lost, and it has long been out of fashion. The prince told them to do something, but they procrastinated until today and don't know if it has been done, it is no different from waste, and they still have to put on a shelf, and they refuse to tell the truth. How can such a person work with him? The most ridiculous thing is that he actually threatens to tell the secret spy department! He sued the son, even if the son is in trouble, can he get out? I am afraid that he will die even more miserably! Such a fool, when faced with a crisis, does not know how to take the overall situation into account, but instead shows that he wants to turn his face, how can his subordinates still allow him to continue to be presumptuous? !

The prince of Shu understood as soon as he heard it, and he glanced at his subordinates deeply: "You killed the person?"

The black-clothed subordinate lowered his head and replied, "The people of the Secret Spy Division have searched half of the Zhuangzi, and they may come to the mourning house at some point." The youngest son of the family is just smarter and tighter-mouthed, but he is not his own person, and when his life is really at stake, he will not protect his subordinates for the twenty taels of silver. In his heart, he only thought that person was a Jiangyang thief. The subordinates were worried that the night was long and dreamy, thinking that the man was useless, and if he fell into the hands of the secret spy department alive, it would only bring disaster to the prince, so he simply did nothing, coaxed him to hide in the coffin, and lied to him that as long as the people from the secret spy department left, they would let him out, but when he hid in the coffin, he stuffed him with some dry food......"

The dry food was made of hands and feet, and sweat medicine was put in it. The black-clothed subordinates secretly did this while the bereaved youngest son went to see the wind, and then hid the person in the coffin and covered the coffin. At that time, the coffin lid was naturally not nailed.

The people of the secret spy department searched the village all night, and only when it was almost dawn did they start to search elsewhere, but they also left a team of people in the village. For such a long time, the living in the coffin had long been hungry, ate dry food, and then fell asleep. At this time, the black-clothed subordinates took advantage of the fact that the others had not woken up, but the youngest son of the bereaved family who knew about it was already sleepy and almost unable to hold on, instigated the latter to go back to the room and take a nap secretly, and took the person away temporarily, and then took advantage of the unpreparedness to nail the coffin lid and sealed the coffin. When the youngest son came back from a nap, there had been a change of people in the mourning hall, and he had returned to a noisy environment. Even when he saw that the coffin was nailed, he was shocked, and he didn't dare to say much. When the funeral came, the coffin was too heavy, and when the people of the secret spy department found the corpse inside, he dared not tell the truth even more......

The black-clothed subordinate said to the prince of Shu: "Even if that person's subordinates know that the man died like this, they will only think that he is unlucky." Now it's a pity that the mourner found two corpses in the coffin, otherwise wouldn't it be cleaner and neater to be carried and buried?"

The prince of Shu stared at his subordinates twice, and in the past, he felt that this person was bold and dark-hearted, and he didn't like to follow the rules very much, and often didn't do what he was told. Although the results are all good, such subordinates still don't like the superiors. If it weren't for the fact that there is really no reliable manpower to use now, and this subordinate secretly rushed all the way from Shu to the capital, loyally defected, and never was on the list of servants of the Shu Palace, and was not known to the royal family and the imperial court, he would not have used this person. Just like this case, although it was handled neatly, he executed his ally without saying a word, which was too self-conceived.

The prince of Shu thought to himself, when he has a more reliable and capable person under his command in the future, this person still has to find a way to deal with it.

However, the prince of Shu did not show a different color on his face, but praised his black-clothed subordinates a few words: "Well done, things should be decided, and no one can be allowed to threaten us!" After praising him, he turned to ask, "The youngest son who lost his family knows your ......"

The black-clothed subordinate hurriedly said: "Before the subordinates entered the city, they had already been disposed of. The brothers quarreled endlessly over the private room left by the old lady, and even now they were detained at home by the people of the secret spy department to guard them, they did not forget to make noise, and they did not know how many cruel words they had said to each other, how many fights they had fought, and they had become mortal enemies. One of his brothers and daughter-in-law is a ruthless person who secretly bought rat poison, but in fact he just wanted to scare others. Taking advantage of their lack of attention, his subordinates put half a pack of rat poison into the cooking pot at his house. At noon this day, the youngest son and his other brother had a seizure, and the abdominal pain was unbearable, and it was not long before they died. If the government investigates it, it will only find the medicine in his brother's daughter-in-law's house, and will not suspect anyone else's head. ”

So, that's the end of the trouble?

The prince of Shu breathed a sigh of relief, and then smiled and said, "Okay, you are very careful and thoughtful, very good!" He was also a little worried about the other two Beirong spies who escaped, although they didn't know his specific name, but they knew when and where he had met with their leader, in case it fell into the hands of the Imperial City's secret spy department, leaking a word and half a word, the secret spy department might not be able to find him. The prince of Shu frowned, feeling that these Beirong people were really too troublesome, and their tails were not as capable as they claimed. Even if he just coaxed the other party and took advantage of the other party, he felt very uncomfortable.

Regarding the two Beirong secret spies, the black-clothed subordinates did not have many clues: "The subordinates were originally guarding in the village, and they never walked with those three people, and they didn't know how they were targeted by the secret spy department." The man refused to go into too much detail, and later died, knowing nothing but the general direction in which the other two had fled. The subordinates also tried to follow the words left by the man and follow those two directions, but they couldn't find any news, and when they saw that there were people from the secret spy department, they didn't dare to ask more questions for fear of showing their feet, so they went back to the city first to report to the prince. ”

The prince of Shu pondered for a moment: "You go and rest first, and then go back to the village tomorrow to see the direction of the wind." If the death of the bereaved son is not discovered, you will continue to stay there. The two Beijung people who escaped know your place, and they may take the initiative to send them to the door. When the time comes, you should first think about stabilizing them, find out the ins and outs of the matter, and if you find that they have been exposed and are useless, then deal with them cleanly, and don't let outsiders find out. ”

The black-clothed subordinates paused, dealing with two suspicious Beirong spies in the village where two murders had just occurred, not only to make the other party not suspicious of the leader's death, but also to kill them cleanly, is it too difficult?

But the prince of Shu ordered it to come down, and he could only agree to come down first. Anyway, the generals are outside, and the military orders are not affected. He just sees the opportunity to act.

The black-clothed subordinates saluted the prince of Shu, thanked him for his grace, and retreated.

After he left, the prince of Shu sat back in his place, frowning and silent.

The princess of the king of Shu slowly walked out of the blue gauze cabinet with a bloodless haggard little face, and sat down on the circle chair opposite: "What is the prince going to do......?" Do you want to go?"

The prince of Shu raised his head and looked at her, his expression uncertain.

The princess of the king of Shu laughed miserably: "The secret spy department has already discovered the traces of those three people, and the trap set by the prince in Zhao Qi is probably useless." Once the prince opens his mouth to His Royal Highness the Prince, he is afraid that he will fall into the net. Does the prince really want to take such a risk? Why don't you stop it?"
