When the fourth child walked to the gate of Yingzhou City, his clothes were ragged, his body was full of scars cut by thorns, his lips were chapped, and his steps were erratic. As soon as he stepped into Yingzhou City, he fell into the arms of the soldiers defending the city, but he still held on to the last trace of thought and said: "Quick, take me to see Lord Yin of Zhou, I have a letter of help from Lord Yin Xiangxi of Zhaozhou Prefecture." ”

After saying that, he fell asleep. The soldiers guarding the city have long been instructed, pay special attention to the people who come from Zhaozhou to deliver the letter, and once they see it, they will send it to the Zhou Yin Mansion as soon as possible. The soldier didn't dare to slack off, called a few companions, and ran towards the governor's mansion with this man in his hand.

......

In Yin Duli's Mansion in Yingzhou Prefecture, a new handyman came a few days ago, who was responsible for cleaning the front yard. Whoever comes and goes in the house, the first person you see must be this little handyman.

On this day, several guards rushed to the state Yin Mansion with a fainting sick number. What kind of place is the Zhou Yin Mansion, the little handyman naturally didn't allow these people to break in like this, and he stopped these people by lifting the broom in his hand.

"Eh, who are you, this is the place where anyone can trespass in the governor's mansion?" The little handyman said proudly.

The man at the head hurriedly said: "Let me go and see Lord Zhou Yin, we are soldiers guarding the city gate, this is the messenger sent by Zhao Zhou City to deliver the letter, and it is the person named by Lord Zhou Yin to meet." If we delay a big event, you and I can't afford to pay the responsibility. ”

The little handyman's eyes shrank, and he asked again, "The messenger of Zhaozhou City?" ”

"Exactly, you don't hurry up and let me wait." The soldier said urgently.

The handyman didn't want to get out of the way, but the corners of his mouth hooked a strange arc: "Since that's the case, then you don't have to go over." ”

As he spoke, the broom in the handyman's hand snapped and fell to the ground, and at the same time, the soldiers only felt an afterimage flash in their eyes, and the back of their necks ached, and then they fainted one by one. But in an instant, all four soldiers were put on the ground. The handyman put his hand into the messenger's arms and groped for a while, took out a bright yellow envelope, and then obviously breathed a sigh of relief, glanced up at the alarmed guards in the Zhou Yin Mansion who were rushing over and Du Li who hurriedly ran after him, and then lifted his body, and turned into an afterimage, sweeping out of the gate of the Zhou Yin Mansion.

Du Li looked at the people on the ground with a gloomy face, and immediately understood what he had missed, and ordered the guards behind him: "Chase." Ordered the city gate to be blocked, and called the defenders to search the whole city together. Even if you turn Yingzhou City over to me, you also have to find the handwritten letter of Yin Ruan Xiangxi in Zhaozhou Prefecture to me. ”

Du Li was very annoyed, he never expected that the people of the Red Turban Army would be so bold as to dare to sneak into the house of the dignified Yingzhou Zhou Yin, and intercept the letter he was waiting for right under his nose. Du Li immediately ordered the city gate to be closed, and the order was passed on to the city gate guards by Pegasus, so Du Li was very sure that the guy who intercepted Ruan Xiangxi's personal letter was definitely still in Yingzhou City.

"You must not let this guy run out of Yingzhou City, Zhou Zheng, you take fifty people and search every household for me, and you must not let go of a corner. Li Da, you personally went to the city gate to stare at me, and not a single fly could be released from the city gate, if anything went wrong, Ben Yin is the only one you ask. ”

Du Li was able to sit in today's high position as a Chinese, and naturally it could not be a simple thing, and after the initial chagrin, he quickly calmed down and issued instructions in an orderly manner.

Because of Du Lihua's identity, he also promoted a wave of Chinese subordinates, and this Zhou Zheng and Li Da are Du Li's absolute cronies. After receiving Du Li's order, the two received the order as soon as possible, and then immediately retreated to implement it.

......

Zhu Chuba carried Ruan Xiangxi's handwritten letter in his arms, but he didn't burn it immediately. Because he knew very well the danger he was in, and if he had to, he might be able to use the letter to save his life.

Zhaozhou City has been completely blocked, so not only Zhu Chuba can't get out, but even the residents in the city can't get out. Therefore, all the residents in Yingzhou City are complaining, but most of the complaints are directed at the little thief who dared to steal important information from the Zhou Yin Mansion who caused all this, and they all hoped that Zhu Chuba would be arrested as soon as possible.

Of course, Zhu Chuba would not expect any kind residents to take in a person of unknown origin at this sensitive time, at this moment Zhu Chuba was hiding in the firewood room in the backyard of a rich and noble family, who was quiet during the day in the depths of the firewood room, and quietly sneaked into people's kitchens at night and secretly took some food. Zhu Chuba didn't dare to take more, as long as the amount was not enough to starve to death. Otherwise, if this family notices that the food in the kitchen is inexplicably decreasing every day, and then runs to report the situation to the government and attract the people who search him everywhere, it will really be more than worth the loss.

Zhu Chuba knew very well that it was not a long-term solution to keep the city gate closed, with so many people in the city, if people were not allowed to go out to trade, it would not be long before chaos would be caused, and these were obviously not what Yin of Yingzhou Prefecture wanted to see. Therefore, he only needs to hold on for ten days at most, and when the city gate opens, he will naturally have a chance to sneak out.

Time passed day by day, and it was the fifth day in the blink of an eye. Zhou Zheng took fifty people to search carefully one by one, but he didn't find the figure of the madman. However, Zhou Zheng did not dare to slack off at all, the soldiers patrolling the street rotated for twelve hours, and the maniac did not dare to wander the street, so he could only hide in the residents' homes. So although nothing was found in the past five days, Zhou Zheng did not dare to slack off, after all, Yingzhou City is so big, and nearly one-third of the residents' homes have not been searched.

The first place that Zhou Zheng searched this morning was Liu's Mansion, and the owner of this Liu's Mansion was a well-known rich man in Yingzhou City, that is, Lord Du Li, and they were very good friends with him. In the face of such a family, of course, Zhou Zheng did not dare to be too rude and rude. Personally go up and knock on the door, and wait for the servant to open the door before someone comes to report.

When Master Liu heard that Zhou Zheng was coming, he also came to the door to greet him. In the distance, there was a hearty laugh.

"Haha, I don't know if Lord Zhou is coming, I missed the welcome, and I ask for forgiveness." Master Liu was still wearing a nightgown, and he came with this rickety old servant behind him.

Zhou Zheng also laughed and said: "Master Liu is polite, the lower official's visit this time was also on the order of Master Du." If there is any disturbance, please forgive Master Liu. ”
