Chapter 69: Exploring King Wu's Mansion at Night
When the bang of the third watch rang, the entire Chang'an City had fallen asleep, only some sporadic red lanterns were still burning in the flower street, and in the distance, there were sheng songs. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Li Mo looked at the businessman who had changed into black clothes, tied up his hair, and completely showed his beautiful figure in front of him with great disapproval.
"Merchant, can you not come with me?" Li Mo gritted his teeth, lowered his voice and discussed with the merchants.
"I can't." The merchant tied his hair tightly with a whole ink-colored veil, and his answer was categorical.
"I'm just going to take a look, I won't stay long, there's really no point in you going with me." Li Mo tried to convince the merchants.
At this time, even the merchant's figure could not affect him, and he was worried about the danger that the merchant might encounter if he followed him.
As a prince who has been open for a long time, Li Ke's mansion is not impregnable, but it must be heavily guarded. Especially the man in white who they had chased in Chang'an City, his skills were never below him, and he was really not sure that he would get out of the way if he let the merchant go with him.
"Since I'm just going to take a look, then you shouldn't have a problem with me following, right?" The businessman's quick rebuttal.
It's not that she deliberately embarrassed Li Mo, it's just that she really didn't feel at ease. No one knows how many hole cards Li Ke has, but idiots know that his mansion is definitely not a place for people to come and go casually, and she wants to go with Li Mo just thinking that if there is any accident, she can also help him.
"Merchant!" Li Mo looked at her with a headache, he had also seen the stubbornness of the businessman, as long as it was what she decided, no one could change it.
"Li Mo, I just want to help you, what is the place of Wu Wangfu, I think you should be clear, I went, you can also have a helper, right?" Shang Shang looked at Li Mo seriously, maybe her kung fu is not particularly good, but as a woman, she has an innate advantage------ her body is as light as a swallow!
"Alright! But I have a request------ you have to listen to me for everything, and if I say I want you to leave, you must leave without hesitation! Li Mo pondered for a moment, and finally nodded with a wry smile.
"Then let's go!" The merchant looked at Li Mo, who bowed his head and compromised, and smiled, she promised to agree, but it was her business whether she listened or not.
Li Mo looked at the businessmen with excited faces, and couldn't help but be a little skeptical of his decision.
The two of them went out through the back door of the kitchen road, and looked left and right, there were no pedestrians in the dark street, only the sound of bangs in the alleyway in the distance.
The palace of King Wu was quiet in the dark night, and the people in the palace had already fallen asleep, and a few dim palace lamps were gently swaying in the wind.
Li Mo and Shang Shang lay quietly on the wall, looking at the Wu Wangfu in the faint light. The staggered houses evolved into strange shadows under the moonlight, like beasts with teeth baring their teeth, waiting to be devoured.
A team of night guards walked under the wall where the two were hiding, carrying a palace lamp, their vigilant eyes scanning around, reflecting the dim light in the moonlight.
"Who are you looking for?" Shang Shang lowered his voice and asked Li Mo, who was lying on the side, in such an atmosphere, she was also a little nervous, and a thin layer of sweat appeared in the palm of her hand pressed against the wall.
"Ann Carpenter." Li Mo replied in a low voice without moving.
"He? Are you sure he'll be here? "The merchant was skeptical.
Li Ke is not a fool! Would he hide such a sensitive person in his house at this tense time? Isn't he afraid of being found out?
"I don't know, it's just to come and see, it's good to be here, it's okay not to be there." Li Mo didn't seem to care much.
He would come to King Wu's Mansion only because of his own intuition, which had helped him many times.
In fact, there is a reason to say that Li Ke hid An Carpenter in the Wu Palace. No matter what he says, he is also a prince, and if there is no evidence, then no matter who it is------ there is absolutely no right to search his mansion. But if there is evidence, where does this evidence come from?
Therefore, in general, Wu Wang Li Ke still has nothing to fear.
"You're not sure?" Shang Shang couldn't help but roll his eyes, what news did she think he had got? The lover's house is simply here to Meng!
"It's not entirely uncertain! In the entire Chang'an City, there are few places suitable for hiding this person. Li Mo didn't say a word, he didn't say that he knew Li Ke very well, but he was very sure of one thing, that is------ Li Ke likes to put all uncertainties within his reach!
"Really?" The merchant said no more, but I hope he is right!
Seeing the guards walking away and falling into darkness under the wall again, Li Mo slowly stood up, jumped on his long legs, and stepped on the courtyard like a fallen leaf.
The merchant looked at the direction where Li Mo had jumped, glanced around, twisted his body, and also fell, standing beside Li Mo easily.
The entire Wu Wangfu is divided into three entrances, and the place they entered is the outer courtyard of the Wu Wangfu, and the real main courtyard is still within the two entrances, and they still have a long way to go.
"Hoo ------!" The merchant exhaled lightly. I hope the rest of the road is as calm as here!
Li Mo pulled the merchant into the shadow of the corner, although there was a distance from here to the second courtyard, but fortunately, the place they chose was the outer garden, and there were some flowers and trees to cover it, so they were not too worried about people finding out.
"From now on, you have to follow me, and you can't make a mistake." Li Mo looked at the face of the merchant in the dark, the small face with the size of a palm, and a pair of eyes still shining even in the dark night.
"I know." The merchant nodded vigorously.
Dodging the eyes of another team of guards, Li Mo looked at the surrounding environment, there was an apricot tree about five steps away from them, and about fifty steps later, he could approach the gate of the second courtyard.
Li Mo let go of his hand, stepped forward and flashed, only to feel that a figure disappeared in a flash in the dim light, the merchant looked at Li Mo's figure with some admiration, did not hesitate, and jumped forward behind him.
Climbing over the door wall of the second courtyard, Li Mo easily put down the sleepy night boy by the door with a small pebble, and then beckoned to the merchants.
Visiting the prince's mansion in the middle of the night, the most dangerous thing is not these guards on the bright side, but those nameless eyes hidden in the dark night.
The two of them traveled all the way, except for the guards, they didn't encounter half a point of barrier, Li Mo couldn't help but feel a little strange in his heart, it is said that at this time, the defense in Li Ke's mansion should be the strictest, how could they let the two of them break into the second courtyard and not move for half a minute? Isn't it strange that the guards who patrol the night are not half strengthened?
Li Mo looked around vigilantly, was there anything else in the dark night that he hadn't noticed?
The merchant jumped off the wall, but what he saw was Li Mo looking at the Wu Wangfu in the night with a suspicious expression.
"What's wrong?" Shang Shang approached Li Mo's side and said in a low voice.
"Merchant, don't you think it's a little strange?" Li Mo looked at Shang Shangdao.
The merchant looked around, in the dark night, everything seemed so quiet, and the big guys slept in the middle of the night, so there was nothing strange?
"Nothing! It's quiet! The merchant looked back at Li Mo.
"Quiet?" Li Mo's face suddenly changed.
"Not bad! It's quiet, it's so quiet! ”
After all, Wu Wangfu is the prince's mansion, even if it is the third watch in the middle of the night, there should be people at night, and there should be voices when people are active, how can it be so lifeless and lifeless as now?
"It seems that something is wrong, let's go, come back another day!" Li Mo's face was gloomy and he looked at the Wu Wangfu in the dark night. Today's events are a bit reckless, and the only hope is that they haven't been discovered yet!
Li Mo climbed the wall with one hand, and made a gesture to the merchant with the other, signaling her to follow him. It's just that in an instant, the two of them lay on the wall of the second courtyard.
"Hehehe! Since your friend is here, why don't you drink a hot cup of tea before leaving! With a chuckle, the palace of King Wu was lit up at this moment.
Rows of guards armed with strong crossbows surrounded the courtyard wall of the second courtyard, under the light of the lights, everyone's face was solemn, and the arm holding the bow did not move at all, and at a glance it was a battle-hardened division.
Li Mo and the merchant who were lying on the wall of the second courtyard appeared in the light as bright as day, the two looked at each other and smiled bitterly, and lay on the wall without moving, knowing that as long as they moved slightly, they were afraid that this row of crossbowmen would immediately shoot the two into a hornet's nest!
"I have heard for a long time that Corporal Wu Wang Lixian, the name of hospitality is chasing after Meng Wei, and I came to take a look today, but it is bothering." Li Mo was lying on the wall, his posture was awkward, but the words in his mouth were extremely relaxed.
"I didn't know that my friend was coming, Li Ke was slow to wait, and I hope that the distinguished guests will not dislike it." Standing in the courtyard, surrounded by a group of guards, Li Ke was wearing a leisurely nightgown, but he looked very comfortable.
He was in a very good mood tonight, but he came back and opened a small net, and immediately caught a big fish, how could he not be happy?
"It turns out that this is King Wu's hospitality!" Li Mo replied coldly, it is very unfavorable for them to always maintain a posture, and after a long time, the blood is blocked, and they will not be able to leave if they want to.
Shang Shang looked coldly at the motionless guards below, and his scalp couldn't help tingling, being pointed at by so many people with strong crossbows, wasn't it like being pointed at by a group of people with guns in the future?
"Friend, let's come down and have a cup of tea!"
Li Ke looked at the two black-clothed men on the wall fearlessly, stretched out his right hand and waved it slightly, and the guards held the crossbow hands hung down neatly, and the crossbow arrows pointed straight at the ground.
"Thank you King Wu for your kindness! Then we might as well be respectful! ”
Li Mo looked at the crowd of people below who were black and oppressive, moved his hands and feet slightly, and turned his head to look at the merchants on the side.
"In a moment, as soon as I say run, you will flee to the east with all your might! Got it? ”
The merchant suddenly raised his head and looked directly at Li Mo with his eyes. (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please log in to the www.qidian.com, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!) )
