"Hey, hey, the big guys have heard about the movement outside the Xilu Gate and the East Lu Gate! King Ling led the army to attack the city again, at this time the two armies were fighting, I heard that the king of Ling was seriously ill a few days ago, and almost died, but fortunately, the fortune was great. ”

In a tea shop in Kowloon City, a man dressed as a child of the scholar clan was shouting loudly, he was knocking melon seeds as he spoke, his spirit was flying, and his spit was flying, and he was not half elegant as the child of the scholar clan. The full table of tea guests who were originally talking to each other were attracted to him.

Even though the war is raging outside the window, the people in the tea shop still talk, laugh, listen to books, compose poems, and eat tea, without the slightest influence.

"His Royal Highness King Ling is deeply blessed, this is the blessing of Chiyan, the luck of Beiyue, and the recovery of Kowloon City is just around the corner." A man in ink was excited to hear this, and he stood up and trembled with his hands above his head.

"Brother Zhang, don't be too happy, although His Royal Highness King Ling is brave and good at fighting, Kowloon City is impregnable, and it can't be attacked many times, and I'm afraid it will be in vain today." The man in white shook his head and continued to eat tea.

"yes, yes......"

"Who said it wasn't ......"

There was a chorus of echoes from the seats.

The man in ink glared at the man in white fiercely, and shook his sleeves angrily: "What do you mean by Brother Liang's words, how can you grow the morale of others and destroy your own prestige." ”

"That's it, how can you talk like that......" There was another whisper from the seat.

"But to be honest, I'm also at fault?" The man in white was anxious.

"What Brother Liang said is right." Another man with a folding fan stood up, "Brother Zhang, current affairs are like this, Brother Liang is just talking about things, if he is really brave, this Kowloon City has already been captured, and it will not be delayed until now, besides, as long as we don't destroy our glamorous life of eating tea and having fun, it doesn't matter who he enters Kowloon City." ”

"You, you...... Liu Buwei, you are shameless. The man in ink blushed, and he was speechless for a long time.

The previous disciple of the scholar clan suddenly took a few steps forward, with an angry face: "This brother, how can he say such inconsequential words, the thieves in the western corner are burning, killing and looting in Beiyue, how many compatriots have died at their hands, their current measures in the city are just to capture the hearts of the people, if they stay in Kowloon City for a long time, how many days will we have to live peacefully?" ”

……

The people in the tea shop are still arguing with each other with each other, even so, the sound of silk and bamboo has not been broken, the food on the case has not been broken, and the tea in the cup has not been broken.

Ji Qianning sat in the corner, silently looking at everything in front of her, her face was gloomy, and she clutched the tea cup on the table.

"Qi, Qi ......" Suddenly, a man in purple sighed and walked up to Ji Qianning's side, and the words in his mouth immediately attracted her.

"Childe, what's the difference?" Ji Qianning opened her mouth to ask.

The man looked up at her, sighed, and slowly spoke: "The two armies are fighting, the soldiers are bleeding to their deaths, and there is a great fight, but the people in the city are still having fun, and they are not in awe, strange, strange......" The man suddenly laughed and shook his head and walked out of the tea shop.

It turned out to be a Southern Zhou merchant trapped in Kowloon City.

Ji Qianning's heart was a little touched, she looked out the window, there were not many people on the street, but the upper floor opposite was also very lively, and the noise gradually covered up the sound of the siege not far away. When she thought of Xuan Qi, her heart was flustered, but she couldn't go to investigate, in case she accidentally added to the chaos.

Just when she was restless, a middle-aged man ran into the tea shop, took the tea on the case, drank it all, and said breathlessly: "Defeated, defeated, the city has not been taken, and King Ling has withdrawn." ”

As soon as she heard that she was defeated, Ji Qianning immediately stood up, listened to him nervously, lifted the crowd around her and squeezed to the front, and asked anxiously, "Is King Ling injured?" ”

The man glanced at her, wondering why she cared so much about King Ling, and suddenly felt that maybe it was just a little lady who was obsessed with King Ling's prestige, so he replied: "I have never heard that King Ling was injured, but the soldiers died tragically countless times, but on the battlefield, who said that there is no one who has suffered a sword, little lady, this is distressing King Ling?" ”

After listening to this, Ji Qianning became even more flustered in her heart, suddenly thought of something, turned around and squeezed away the crowd and ran out of the tea shop.

"Hey, little lady......" the man's voice came from behind.

went to the street and saw that there was no one around, Ji Qianning quickly ran towards the worry-free tavern.

In the past few days, she has been wandering around the streets every day, she knows that Ling Chengzhi sent people to follow her, so she only went to some ordinary clothing shops, food shops and tea shops or something, and she did not behave half abnormally, so Ling Chengzhi only knew that she was wandering on the street to relax, and yesterday she withdrew the person who followed her, and today the two armies are at war, and he has no leisure to send people to follow her, so this can blatantly go to the Sanssouci Tavern to find Commander Qu.

After a while, Ji Qianning ran into the tavern, only to see that the restaurant was also overcrowded, she searched with her eyes, and suddenly found that Qu Tongling was looking at herself at the railing on the second floor, and her eyes met, Ji Qianning immediately understood, and quietly waited for Qu Tongling to go to the first floor, silently following him a few steps away.

Bypassing the corridor, she followed Commander Qu into a room in the corner, Commander Qu touched the mechanism and opened the dark room in the room, and the door slowly opened, revealing some light from inside. Ji Qianning glanced at Commander Qu, Commander nodded, and then the two walked in together.

The secret door slowly closed, and along the secret passage, it suddenly opened up after a while, it was enough to be the size of two rooms in the usual, although the things displayed in it were simple, but they were all available, and the three men in black were sorting out the information they had collected, and it turned out that this was the office of the secret guards of Kowloon City.

"Brothers." Qu Yongliang's shout immediately made the three people working look over, "This is the girl Ji mentioned to you earlier." ”

Ji Qianning looked at them and nodded with a smile.

The three of them immediately got up and stepped forward, and respectfully saluted Ji Qianning: "I've seen the girl." ”

"In the next way, the word Lin'an."

"In Xia Xun Yang, the word Mulder."

"In Xia Yang Yong, there is no word, the girl can call me Xiaoyong."

The three of them all stared at Ji Qianning silly, as if her arrival immediately made their black and white world more colorful.

Ji Qianning saw their infatuated looks, glanced at Qu Yongliang, and tried her best to hold back a smile.

Qu Yongliang was a little embarrassed for a while: "Let the girl smile, these boys haven't seen such a beautiful woman for a long time, that's why they have this virtue." Then, he looked at the three of them with a serious face, "Put away your harazi, don't embarrass Lao Tzu." ”

"Girl, sit here." Without waiting for Qu Yongliang to finish speaking, Yang Yong pulled Ji Qianning to sit down, and the other two also poured tea and water, and immediately surrounded him.

"Girl, if you're hungry, I'll prepare some pastries and fruits for you."

"Girl, ...... tea"

"No, no......" Ji Qianning hurriedly shook her hand, and was made to smile bitterly by their enthusiasm.

Qu Yongliang was speechless for a while, holding his forehead and sighing. Then, he took two steps forward and coughed vigorously twice, and the three of them immediately stood aside obediently, although they hung their heads, they still glanced at Ji Qianning from time to time.

"Ah Liang, I thought that the people who did your job were all serious and cold people, but I didn't expect to be so happy." Ji Qianning smiled bitterly at Qu Yongliang.

"The girl smiled, these boys are not sensible, the girl should not take it to heart." Commander Qu was embarrassed.

"It's okay, I think it's good." Ji Qianning suddenly looked at them with a smile.

Commander Qu breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly remembered what was going on, and hurriedly asked, "Why did the girl come this time?" ”

Ji Qianning listened to his question, and suddenly regretted that he had forgotten the matter for a while: "I think you already know about the failure of the siege." ”

"Yes." As soon as this matter was mentioned, several people were indignant, and their expressions immediately became serious.

Ji Qianning suddenly got up and looked at them: "Kowloon City is impregnable, it can't be attacked for a long time, the soldiers of Chiyan Beiyue have been killed and injured countless times, and a frontal attack is not a long-term solution, I am thinking, if I do something to damage their rear, I will definitely be able to rub their sharpness." ”

After listening to Ji Qianning's words, several people were overjoyed: "We also have this intention, and we have been planning this matter recently." ”

Ji Qianning looked at them appreciatively: "I have a clumsy plan, I don't know if it's feasible?" ”

"Girl, but it doesn't hurt to say."

"You also know that grain and grass are the basic guarantee of an army, if there is no grain and grass, their military morale will inevitably be chaotic, so Chiyan Fang has a chance to win."

Qu Yongliang and the other four looked at each other and smiled, and Ji Qianning, who was looking at it, was confused: "It's not feasible?" ”

"No, no, the girl and I coincide." As he spoke, he motioned her to a wooden case, Xiao Yong took a map and spread it out, Qu Yongliang compared it on the map, "Girl, please look, this is what I have been waiting for these days to find out where their grain and grass are, and I am preparing to burn it." ”

Ji Qianning suddenly became excited: "Very good, I didn't expect us to think of it together, Ah Liang, when can we act, please deploy quickly, I will listen to your command." ”

"The day is conspicuous, it is not easy to move, and at night their guards will be doubled, and they will be more strict than during the day, but according to our observation for many days, when the ugly time and the bad time change, they change the guard, and the guard is the most lax at that time, for a good opportunity, without further ado, they can act tonight." Qu Yongliang analyzed with a serious face.

"Your manpower?" Ji Qianning had some worry on her face and looked at the four people in front of her.

Xiao Yong chuckled: "Don't worry, girl, the guys in this tavern are all our people." ”

Ji Qianning relieved her mind and nodded: "Then let's gather outside the tavern at the end of tonight, and ask Ah Liang to prepare a hat and a sword for me at that time, if I prepare my own, it will be inconvenient." ”

"Girl......" Ah Liang wanted to speak and stopped.

Ji Qianning understood what he meant: "Don't worry, I won't hold you back, I should go back, lest I notice something over there and say goodbye." ”

Ji Qianning carefully left the tavern and returned to her residence, Ling Chengzhi immediately looked for her to show off her achievements, she dealt with it carefully, in the middle of the night, she observed that there was nothing unusual in the house, and continued to jump out of the back window, flew onto the eaves, and was familiar with the road, and after a while, she arrived outside the tavern.

Ah Liang, Xiao Yong and more than a dozen others were all dressed in black and wearing black cloths, and they were already waiting for Ji Qianning's arrival. Ji Qianning took the hat and put it on in the dark night, took the sword, followed the people, and quietly sneaked into the warehouse where the Daxin people put grain and grass. Everyone found the best position, held their breath, and waited for the arrival of the time.

On a summer night, there was surprisingly no moonlight, and the clouds overshadowed the stars, and the darkness was gloomy, and the silence was terrible. In a tense atmosphere, everyone counted the time passing.

Ji Qianning clenched the sword in his hand, his face was calm, but there was fine sweat flowing from his forehead.

After a long time, the time has come, Ah Liang gave an order, everyone evaded the guards, sneaked in, sprinkled the fire oil that had been prepared everywhere, everyone cooperated tacitly in the dark night, and after a while, they completed their tasks and gathered not far away.

Everyone took out the fire fold, blew out the fire, and threw it out with all their might, converging into a little starlight that fell on the place sprinkled with fire oil. The oil was immediately ignited, and by the time the Daxin guards found out, the warehouse was already on fire.

"Oh no, it's water, come and put out the fire......" The shouts of Daxin people came and went.

"Catch the thief ......" The summer is dry, the grain and grass are flammable, the fire is getting bigger and bigger, and there is a tendency to swallow the sky.

Ji Qianning and his party saw the rising fire, the smoke that went straight to the sky, and listened to their piercing cries, and their faces were full of bright smiles.

While laughing, they retreated according to the pre-planned route, and suddenly, a large number of torches appeared in front of them, and about a hundred people blocked their retreat.

For a while, there was a dilemma......
