Chapter 17

This little scimitar must be unusual!

Du Yan was curious, and he had nothing to do, so he simply followed those men all the way to see what he was doing. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

This one followed for more than a month. When it comes to tracking and modifying, Du Yan can throw them thousands of miles.

Sometimes he pretends to be a woman, sometimes an old man, sometimes a businessman, and his identities are reversed. He was so thoughtful that he even sold the green donkey under his crotch, sometimes in a carriage, sometimes on foot. Along the way, the people in front of them didn't notice it at all.

After passing through Jingzhou, it turned east into Yuzhou, and it became closer and closer to the river.

Du Yan said secretly, are you going to Wu Land? The prince in their mouths, is it the prince of Wu Wang?

When they reached the river, the group got into a big boat, and as soon as they got on it, the boat departed, as if they were waiting.

Du Yan also hurriedly set up a small boat to follow, there were other guests crossing the river on the boat, Du Yan mixed in it, but it was not discovered.

After crossing the river, the group went straight to Huaizhou City. At the gate of the city, an old man in a Confucian shirt in his fifties was already waiting. Seeing them approaching, with a wave of his hand, a few horses were led out from behind him, and everyone got on their horses one after another, and followed the old man in Confucian shirts into the city.

The guards at the city gate did not inspect the city, and respectfully let everyone into the city.

Huaizhou was the residence of King Wu and had not yet been included in the territory of the Great Wei.

Because there is a lot of friction between Wei and Wu, they are afraid of mixing into the fine work, and the city gate is usually very strict.

Du Yan rummaged through the baggage on the back of the person and found a card that matched the identity of the current outfit for backup.

He has been running around all year round, and he has no serious identity, so it is almost impossible to handle everything through formal channels. However, it is not surprising that he has a skillful ability to be empty-handed, and there are always all kinds of places around him.

By the time he finished inspecting the place, it was getting late, and the gate of Huaizhou was about to close. Du Yan's delay has long since disappeared from the group of people.

Fortunately, he expected that those people were subordinates of King Wu's son, and he was not afraid of losing them. Before the curfew, I walked around outside the mansion of King Wu and stepped on the plate before I found an inn to live in.

After the curfew, the streets were deserted.

Du Yan changed into night clothes in the room, put on a human skin mask on his face, and covered the mask with a black scarf before leaving the inn.

There was not half a figure on the street, he carefully avoided the Wuhou who was patrolling the night, touched the mansion of King Wu, and sneaked in quietly.

This place is different from the rich people who usually steal, and there are only a few three-legged cat kung fu in the house. This is the mansion of the prince of the king of a land, with a master like a cloud and a strong defense.

Du Yan couldn't help but feel very energetic and cautiously groped forward.

The Shizi Mansion is very large, and he didn't visit the Shizi Mansion for most of the day, and naturally he didn't see the Shizi himself, even the few men he followed during the day.

I was about to make a tongue to ask about the situation, when I heard a voice coming from afar. He ducked behind a flower tree and peeked out.

The sound of boots murmured from far and near, and a group of people stepped on the road. Walking in front was a young man in his early twenties, wearing a moon-white robe with a golden python pattern, a golden crown, and a jade face and red lips, he was actually very handsome.

Looking at his clothes, there is no doubt that he must be the prince of Wu.

Half a step behind him was the old man in Confucian shirts who greeted several men at the city gate today.

I only heard the old man in the Confucian shirt say: "...... I'm listening to the Snow Pavilion, I've been waiting for an hour, do you want to see the prince now?"

Shizi said: "Have you seen something?"

The old man in the Confucian shirt replied: "I've seen it, according to my subordinates, it should be right." ā€

"That's good, tell me to go down, prepare a feast, and wait for this son to feast a few heroes. ā€

Du Yan saw the expression of King Wu Shizi who seemed to be smiling when he spoke, and the eyes with unknown meanings, his heart jumped, and he secretly said, I am afraid that these people will not live long.

When the old man in the Confucian shirt heard this, his eyes showed a little hesitation: "Lord Shizi, I'm afraid that the brothers of the Zhan family don't know what it has to do with it, do you see if it's ......?"

"Elder Wu, the older you get, the more merciful you become. What's the matter, you have an old relationship with the Zhan family brothers?" Shizi's voice was still unhurried, but the sharp edge that occasionally flashed in his eyes was unusually sharp.

The old man in the Confucian shirt didn't dare to say any more, and bowed down and responded: "Don't dare, my subordinates will go and prepare." ā€

King Wu Shizi took a few subordinates to turn right at the end of the road, passed through a low wall doorway, and entered an independent pavilion near the water.

Du Yan looked up and saw a big plaque on it, with the words "Listening to Snow Pavilion" written on it.

It was a three-story pavilion, and Shizi went up the stairs directly to the third floor. Du Yan looked left and right, and saw that the lights in front of the building were bright, and he thought that there would be people serving food coming and going after a while. The flowers and trees on the left and right sides are an excellent place to hide.

He bent down, quickly got into the flowers, touched the back of the pavilion, and went up to the third floor in a few vertical leaps.

This Tingxue Pavilion is a hexagonal wooden building with a circle of cloisters on the outer edge. He looked at the window in the back, and the light inside illuminated the window paper, which was bright yellow, and if he was lying here, the shadow would be cast on the window paper, and it would be very easy for the night guards to spot.

However, the west side is darker. Du Yan groped down the corridor and discerned the location of the window in the dark. He took out a small dagger from his body, reached into the crack of the window, and felt the position of the bolt inch by inch from the bottom to the top, and when he found it, he used the dagger to push it aside little by little.

He opened the window and quietly jumped inside, inside was a lounge with a door connected to the outside.

Du Yan opened the door and looked out, and a large screen was erected outside the door. It is embroidered with a picture of a tiger descending from the mountain, and the light shines through the moonlight veil covered by the screen as thin as a cicada's wings, and several figures can be clearly seen.

The place where Du Yan was located was dimly lit, and the lights were mostly concentrated around the dining table, so he was not afraid that they would see him. Du Yan took a few steps forward, and used a dagger to pick aside the fine yarn on the screen, forming a small hole so that he could see more clearly.

The prince sat on the main seat, the six men sat on both sides, and the old man in Confucian shirt accompanied each other. There was a girl in a green skirt standing next to her, each holding a tray, and each plate was placed with a neat dozen or twenty-two gold ingots.

The old man in the Confucian shirt smiled softly and was instructing his subordinates, "...... Wrap it up and wait outside, and then take it when a few heroes leave......"

The girls in the green skirt said "yes" in unison, holding the gold fish out. At this time, another group of subordinates came up with wine and food and laid them out on the table one by one.

The old man in the Confucian shirt picked up the wine jug to pour wine for a few people, and the handsome man who had pretended to be a young master of a merchant glanced at the beard, and the beard stood up, snatched the wine jug with a haha, and said: "My brothers are all coarse people, how can I pour wine for Lao Wu Ye, I should give a glass of wine to Shizi and Wu Ye on behalf of my brothers......"

The beard poured wine for the prince and Wu Ye as he spoke, and the handsome man continued his words: "Don't worry, although my brothers are dull, they still understand the rules after many years of walking in the rivers and lakes." Today, I am going to go to Shudi for a walk, the mountains are high and the rivers are far away, and I am afraid that I will not come back for the rest of my life. ā€

Du Yan couldn't help but be surprised when he saw the style of the young man behind the screen. I thought that there were such characters among these men, and they acted so cautiously. First of all, he gave the beard a look, and asked him to pour wine to see if there was anything wrong with the flask. He also told the prince that his brothers were all people who knew the rules and would not tell him what he would do for the prince, and promised that he would go away and not let people grasp the handle.

"You are serious, you are all well-known heroes in the green forest, I have always admired. How can there be a truth that cannot be believed? Come, drink, drink. Shizi said with a smile.

The prince raised his glass, and the beard poured wine for his brothers. The beautiful man said again: "Please forgive me, our brother has seven people, and the third brother is as good as his life, but he was killed three years ago in order to protect us." Therefore, after that, our brothers must first respect the third brother when they drink, and the son of the world should not be blamed. ā€

As he spoke, he and the rest of the people stood up with their respective wine glasses, and spilled the wine in their hands on the ground.

Du Yanxin said, now the cup has been smeared with poison, and it has been rinsed.

Shizi and Wu Ye glanced at each other, and they both laughed. Shizi smiled: "The Zhan brothers are famous, and they really live up to their reputation...... "Raise the wine glass again, "Come, I will toast the six heroes." ā€

After the prince finished speaking, he drank the wine first and turned the mouth of the cup upside down to show that it had run out. Seeing this, the Zhan brothers also did it.

Shizi smiled and said: "All the heroes are well-behaved and thoughtful, they are all rare talents, I don't know if you are interested in staying? ā€

The Zhan brothers glanced at each other, and the handsome man lowered his eyes and slowly turned the wine glass in his hand. The beard smiled, scratched his head and smirked: "The prince of the world looks up to our brother, and our brother should serve the prince... Hehe... But we're used to messing around...... Hehe......"

A cold light flashed in the eyes of the prince, and then he smiled: "You heroes are used to being at ease, and it is human nature that you can't stand the restraints. It's fate to have a fellowship, so come, eat vegetables, eat vegetables, ......"

Shizi said, took the lead in clipping a chopstick and ate it, and the Zhanjia brothers followed.

For a while, everyone in the room pushed the cup and changed the lamp, smiling and laughing.

In less than two moments, the Zhanjia brothers were silent one by one, lying on the table and not moving.

Shizi snorted coldly, "I don't know how to lift!"

He got up and wanted to leave, turned around and asked Wu Ye again: "How is the errand of Qu Jie?"

"It's been cleaned. The brothers of the Zhan family have always robbed money without harming their lives, and only used sweat medicine for that person. The man slept until noon, and did not dare to report to the official, so he could only look for it blindly. Qu Xie cooked them at Crane Forgotten Peak, and threw their corpses at the bottom of the cliff, presumably before they were eaten by wild beasts in a short time. Wu Ye stood aside and explained respectfully.

Du Yan was listening to the cold sweat inside, it turned out that there was a big master looking around at that time, and he didn't even notice it. However, thinking about his various identities swapping along the way, he may not have found himself, otherwise he should have died a long time ago.

"Have you identified that person, but the youngest son of the Last Emperor?"

Qu Xie said that there was a small mole at the end of the left eyebrow of the man, and it should be the youngest son of the last emperor. When the prince was still the envoy of the festival, his subordinates followed him and saw the last emperor Xi concubine. The ninth princess is the same as the youngest son of the last emperor, and there are moles on the tail of her eyebrows that are the same as those of Concubine Xi, and it is said that many people in Concubine Xi's family have them. ā€

Du Yan was shocked when he heard this, it turned out that the silver-crowned man was actually the little boy held by the ninth princess of Emperor Zhou he had seen back then! No wonder he always felt a little familiar when he saw the mole between his eyebrows at that time.

At the end of the year, the emperor and the princes and princesses were all killed by King Wu, and only the youngest son escaped. Unexpectedly, after many years, he still did not escape the poisonous hands of King Wu.

Shizi shook his robe, raised his chin at the Zhan family brothers, and said: "After sending so many people and looking for them for five or six years, the Zhan family brothers have taken the lead." Since you have merit, prepare a few coffins for them and find a feng shui treasure, so that you don't have to work so hard in the next life. ā€

Wu Ye bowed and said, "Yes." He took out the brocade-wrapped thing from his bosom and handed it to the son.

The prince took the thing in his bosom and went out.
