The leader left Lan Xue's courtyard, carefully avoided a group of family members who were patrolling the night, and avoided two passing mothers-in-law, came to the bottom of the back wall of the house in the dark, and then disguised a cat meow. In a few moments, the same meow of a cat could be heard outside the wall, and he knew that this was what his companions had told him that everything was ready outside, and that he could climb over the wall and leave.

There was no one around, it was pitch black, and it was a good time to escape. He touched the wall he had stepped on when he sneaked in, confirmed the location of the two slightly protruding brick corners on the wall again, took a few steps back, ran a short distance, and then jumped lightly, and used the two protruding brick corners as a leverage point to successfully climb the wall.

On the other side of the wall, two of his right-hand men were waiting, one letting off the wind and the other answering. The answerer took a few steps back, and the leader fell to the ground gently. There was no danger and no danger, and I got out smoothly.

The three of them immediately retreated, and ran through the long, dark alley to the other side of the alley.

On the way, the leader asked the two subordinates, "Has anyone approached here tonight?" Has anyone on the other side of the concierge noticed that something is wrong?"

The two shook their heads in unison: "Don't worry, chief, we first let people go to the mother-in-law guarding the back door to make her angry, and misunderstood that it was the night watchman sent by Zhao Mo to instigate it, and then entrusted another group of people to appease the mother-in-law and open her from the back door." Except for us, no one else will find out that anyone has ever entered Lan Xue's yard!"

The leader felt a little relieved. At this time, the three of them had already run to the entrance of the alley on the other side, and saw that a carriage had already stopped there, tightly sealed, and the coachman was sitting upright, holding a horsewhip in his hand, as if he could set off at any time, and hurriedly got into the carriage one after another.

The wheels of the carriage were specially made, oiled and turned quietly. The hooves of the horses pulling the cart are also wrapped with cloth to reduce the sound of the horses' hooves stepping on them. The long-awaited coachman flicked his whip and drove the carriage out of the alley. They walked through the alleys, turning around seven or eight times, and if anyone followed them at this time, they would surely be turned unconscious.

In the carriage, the two subordinates finally took the time to ask about the leader Lan Xue. The leader briefly told the story of the meeting between the two, and said not very optimistically: "This woman is stupid! In the past, when there was Lan Fusheng, she did things quite smoothly; later, without Lan Fusheng, there was also Zhu'er, although she was not as handy as before, and she didn't make a big mistake; now that there is no Zhu'er, Zhen'er Niang can no longer stay in that mansion as an errand, so she can count on Lan Xue alone? I dare not expect her to do any good things!"

Subordinate A said a little angrily: "Since she admitted in front of Zhao Shuo that she didn't do a good job, then why did she have to pour sewage on the heads of Zhen'er's mother and daughter before?! There is also the matter of the medicine, she wants to take the medicine, how can she delay the medicine when it reaches her, but she refuses to do it? If it weren't for her refusal to use the medicine for a long time, and she was careless and didn't watch out for the people of the Xiao Wang clan, how could such a big thing happen?! Now that even Zhu'er is dead, Zhu'er is a hundred times more useful than Lan Xue! She is dead, how can Lan Xue still live so easily?! ”

Subordinate B thought more: "Leader, Zhen'er and her mother are still alive, but with Zhen'er's temper, they shouldn't confess and tell the truth." Shall we try to save them, or do we pretend that we don't have anything to do with them and ignore them altogether?"

The leader said: "Can't be saved! No, it can still be seen that the two of them are just following Lan Xue's orders, and they are not her accomplices." But if they are saved, it will be a clear telling people that there is something wrong with their origins. We still have manpower in Zhao Shuo's mansion, but it's just not in the inner courtyard. Don't arouse Zhao Shuo's suspicions anymore, lest the only remaining ears and eyes be destroyed by him!"

That's right, he did still have the manpower to be a subordinate in Zhao Shuo's mansion, otherwise how could he pretend to be a doctor so easily to enter the door? It's just that now they have lost too many people in Zhao Shuo's inner courtyard, and he can't take any more risks and sacrifice the rest of the people. That would not only make all the effort they had spent on Zhao Shuo over the years in vain, but it might also surprise Zhao Shuo and his son if they were behind the troublemaker. The success of their current plans is based on the words "surprise". Because no one thinks about them, they will always be smooth. But such luck does not belong to them forever after all.

The two subordinates could understand the leader's concerns, but they were helpless when they thought of their companions falling into the hands of the enemy, and they inevitably felt a little uncomfortable.

Compared with Lan Xue, who was brought into the Liao Wangfu as a girl by Lan Fusheng not long after entering the border of Jokhang, Zhu'er, Zhen'er's mother and daughter and others spent more time with them and had a deeper affection. For Lan Xue, who easily pushed Zhen'er's mother and daughter out to be scapegoats, they all felt a little embarrassed. Zhu'er committed suicide, and even the corpse didn't know how to deal with it, and her companions couldn't handle the funeral for her, and Zhen'er's mother and daughter didn't know when they would see the light of day again, and the culprit was still alive and well, lying in bed and enjoying Qingfu, is there anything more unfair in the world?!

Subordinate A thought that Zhu'er had died like this, and he was depressed and panicked. He asked the leader: "Now that Zhao Shuo has no hope here, and our manpower has lost too much, it is better to simply abandon this line, right?" As long as Lan Xue is disposed of and she is not allowed to leak the news, there is only one Zhao Qi who does not know his background, and he will not find anything." And as soon as Lan Xue died, Zhao Shuo would naturally no longer be embarrassed by Zhen'er Niang. Let's free up our hands and think about other things!"

Subordinate B frowned and looked at him: "What nonsense? Although Lan Xue is a little stupid, she is also our own person, if you really want her to shut up, you can't kill her, right? She did make a mistake, but she didn't betray it?!"

Subordinate A sneered: "Isn't this called betrayal? She really stayed in the palace of the prince of Dazhao for too long, so long that she forgot who she was, forgot her duties, and only thought about how to compete with others and be jealous, how to get Zhao Shuo's favor, and how many things to give birth to? Because of her selfishness, Lan Fusheng also indulged her, Zhao Shuo failed to enter the East Palace as we wished, and now he has lost his position! Lan Xue was caught by Xiao Wang's feet, and immediately pushed out all the companions around her to die. But as long as she still has a little sense of responsibility, she should know that at this time, she should admit the crime herself. Anyway, she has a son, Zhao Shuo won't kill her anyway, but it's just a fall out of favor, what's the big deal? Zhu'er They can still act as usual and find out the news everywhere, instead of losing their lives inexplicably! If Lanxue doesn't call it betrayal, then what is betrayal?!"

Subordinate B has worked with him for many years, and he also knows that he has been treated badly by Lan Xue, and he has always had a deep affection for Zhu'er, so he has long held back a stomach of resentment in his heart. In fact, Lan Xue's temperament and scheming have indeed caused them a lot of trouble. Excluding the identity of his companion, he doesn't have a good impression of the other party.

Therefore, subordinate B also turned his head and said to the leader: "Although Brother Jia's words are rough, the truth is clear. Lan Xue is useless now, and she is prone to bad things, and her selfishness is heavy. Keeping her behind is too risky for us. Although we still have people in Zhao Shuo's mansion, there are no people in the inner courtyard. If Lan Xue is blinded by wealth and glory, or if she thinks that her son can soar and deliberately betrays us, we are afraid that we will not know. It's too late to regret it then!"

The leader shook his head: "It's not the time yet, there is still a place to use her, and you can't do anything to her." ”

The two subordinates couldn't help but glance at each other, and they both had a question in their hearts: "What does this mean?"

The leader smiled, "We'll soon have an ally of honorable status. He needs us to help him deal with a few people. Zhao Shuo is a very suitable candidate for scapegoat, and he can contain Zhao Mo. Since Lan Xue is in his mansion, sooner or later she can come in handy, so why rush to dispose of her?"

Although the leader didn't go into too much detail, the two subordinates understood what she meant, exchanged glances with each other, and both smiled: "Since the leader has a perfect plan, it is naturally appropriate, we have too much to worry about." ”

The carriage drove softly into a somewhat dilapidated alley, and after two turns, it stopped in front of an ordinary courtyard house. Three people in the car quietly got out of the car, and one of them stepped forward and knocked on the door. He knocked regularly, and only repeated it twice, and the door was already open.

The three of them quickly slipped into the door, and the person who opened the door immediately closed the door. The coachman drove the carriage out of the alley and ran towards the alley on the other side.

Calm returned to the alley, and it was pitch black all around.

Several young men in civilian clothes showed their faces from the darkness, stared at the house that the three of them had entered, noted down the location and the environment of the neighbors, and then separated two companions and chased the direction in which the carriage left, leaving two companions to continue monitoring the work in a secluded corner, while the rest turned around to report to Zhao Moyu.

"Oh, have you found their footing?" Zhao Mo raised his head with a pleasant face, "This is a good thing." Tomorrow you will try to find out who rented the house. I kept an eye on them, how many of them were, what they looked like, who they met and talked to, and what they planned to do. ”

Everyone was busy patting their chests and packing tickets, claiming that they would never let this group of people of unknown origin and ill-intentioned people stir up trouble in the capital again.

Zhao Mo smiled slightly and retracted his gaze. He was holding Lan Fusheng's latest confession that had just arrived. Although Lan Fusheng still slyly refused to tell his true origin, after many executions, he still couldn't bear it anymore, and began to make some confessions that were difficult to argue, but he didn't expect that Zhao Mo could always find flaws in these confessions, deduce useful clues, and break Lan Fusheng's wishful thinking. Now, Lan Xue has lost her momentum, her henchmen are scattered, and her parents and children have deviated. Will the change in the situation make Lan Fusheng feel relieved, really think about his own safety, and tell more truth to the interrogators?

Zhao Mo is already looking forward to the next new confession.
