Chapter Eighty-Seven: See Through

She clearly knew that the envoy Fan Jun was talking about was pretended to be someone from the Assassin Order.

In this case, they can only take advantage of the fact that the holy decree has not been delivered, and then notify the bandits and Zhu Wuyi to intercept Xiao Chongguang, and at the same time, they sent people to disguise themselves as robbed messengers, and took advantage of the delay to go to Zhongzhou Mansion to fight a rake, and use Zhongzhou Mansion to deal with Xiao Chongguang who really sent the decree.

In the end, the fake envoy was able to use the secret matter as an excuse to meet with the Zhongzhou Governor Yin alone, kidnap the Mansion Yin, and coerce him to give the patrol battalion the will they wanted to rewrite.

However, there is still a suspicion in this, their itinerary and purpose are carried out secretly, and even the Tiwei Mansion is only known to high-level officials like Lu Yunsheng, where will the other Tiwei know the details. If his inference is true, then by what means did the Assassin Order know, and through whom did they know their whereabouts?

What went wrong?

Han Yu was puzzled, because this was not something that could be explained by a sentence of "secret pile report", even if it was really someone in the imperial capital who used some method to master Xiao Chongguang's secret itinerary, but what about the operation after that? Crafting messages, delivering them remotely, receiving them, organizing people, making plans, and executing orders are all impossible without such a rigorous layout.

The Assassin Organization could only be deployed on this scale unless it had completed its planning half an hour before Xiao Chongguang's departure.

"Could it be that they were already suspicious when they found the corpse of the messenger?"

As soon as Han Yu's thoughts rose, she immediately shook her head and shook it off, the top priority now is to go to Tangfu Yin, not to analyze the case.

She grabbed Fan Jun's collar and said angrily: "Let me tell you, I am not a thief, the real thief is the guy who came to report the crime to you, they pretended to be a messenger and framed me." Now that Tang Fu Yin is in danger, you go outside now to organize your men and horses, and follow me to save Fu Yin! ”

Fan Jun looked at Han Yu's fierce and vicious appearance, where could he believe it? After listening to this, he strengthened his strength and plucked up his courage and said: "You, you said that you are a good person, but do you have a certificate?" If not, why should I trust you? ”

Han Yu sighed, said "No way", then took out a gold token from his arms and showed it in front of Fan Jun's eyes, Fan Jun opened his eyes, tried to see the words of the token or something, and after reading it all silently in his heart, he was taken aback, and immediately knelt down towards Han Yu and said: "See the ······ of the palace"

"Shhhh Silence! Be silent! Outside, you can call me Han Yu. ”

Han Yu squeezed Fan Jun's shoulder hard and snorted, and glanced out the door, "Now you believe it, right?" ”

Fan Jun smiled in a cold sweat: "Your ······ Oh no, Miss Han laughed, how could the lower officials not believe it? ”

Han Yu said: "Okay, since that's the case, I will ask Lord Fan to dispatch the soldiers and horses in the palace and go with me to the patrol camp to rescue Lord Tang." ”

"Why does Miss Han think that the fake post envoy will go to the patrol camp to hold Lord Yin hostage?" Fan Jun asked.

"This oracle of the holy decree is to order the patrol battalion to return to Beijing to stand by, the thieves intercept the holy decree, and the key fields are difficult to rewrite, so even if they want to forge the holy decree, it must be related to the patrol battalion, and now the false decree is not successful, and they can only hijack the government Yin to announce their orders, so as to force the patrol battalion to transfer to the place where they have prepared." Han Yu explained her thoughts.

Fan Jun nodded and said, "It makes sense, then the lower official will transfer outside manpower now." ”

After that, he was about to go out, but Han Yu stretched out his hand to stop him: "When you go outside, don't call yourself an official in front of everyone." ”

"Xiaguan······ Oh no, I see. ”

The Imperial City of the Eastern Capital, Jingming Palace, Xuzheng

After the dinner was dispersed, Xue Shaochen said goodbye to Song Miao's mother and son, and returned to the post house in Yihefang, East City, where he temporarily lived.

Soon after, Concubine Rong also felt sleepy and a little sleepy, so she also got up and went back to the palace, and Song Milling followed her all the way until the Fuyou Palace where Concubine Rong lived, and he returned to Jingming Palace, and Song Qi, who did not leave, sat in the guest seat in the lobby, drinking sobering tea and waiting.

"Brother Eleven, now there is no second person in the palace besides you and me, what do you have to say, you can say it now."

Song Milling Ping retreated, closed the palace door and said.

Song Qi put down the teacup and said, "This matter is very important, and it should not be taken lightly. It's safer to go to the fifth brother's dormitory. ”

"That's fine."

With a smile, the two of them walked quickly to Song Miao's bedroom, closed the door tightly, and sat at the round table, before Song Qi leaned into Song Miao's ear and spit out four words: "Believe in the king's rebellion!" ”

Song Mo was shocked when he heard this, and said, "Impossible! The third brother's current power can be said to be in full swing, and the current courtiers all say that whether the third brother can replace the eldest brother as the crown prince is just a matter of his father's words. ”

"Don't be so loud, be careful that the wall has ears."

Song Qi tugged hard at Song Miao's sleeve and reminded in a low voice, while looking out the door.

Song Mo tried his best to calm his mood, and said indifferently: "It's me who is excited, sorry." However, Eleventh Brother, even if you want to help the Emperor's eldest brother, you can't frame the third brother. ”

"I didn't frame him," Song Qi said with an anxious face, "I saw it with my own eyes and heard it with my own ears." ”

"What the hell is going on?"

Song Qi sighed, and told him all about the conversation between Song Lin and Gu Xinglian when he went into the back mountain tonight to dig wine, met Song Lin by chance, followed him all the way, and finally saw the conversation between Song Lin and Gu Xinglian, which made Song Mo dumbfounded.

Then, Song Mo eased his nerves, was silent for a long time, and said: "Even if the third brother has some entanglements with the gangsters, after all, he never agreed to her, so it can't be said to be a rebellion." ”

"If Song Lin agrees, it will be too late," Song Qi put down himself and became excited, "Fifth brother, think about it, now the power of the third brother, not to mention half of the six divisions is under his control, the control of Liang Xiang alone is very terrifying, not to mention far away, just say that the tiger army outside the city, the generals in the army, most of them are Liang Ziqing's cronies, or they are protégés from the Prime Minister's mansion." There are also the twelve guards of the Imperial City, Qianniuwei, Leopard Taowei, Long Wuwei, etc., where did they not infiltrate the forces of the Prime Minister's Mansion? Then there is the Spiegel Division, someone has already come out, and He Qian has secret contact with Liang Xiang. Once the third brother rebels, the entire eastern capital will fall into an irreversible disaster! ”

Hearing this, Song Mo supported the table with his elbows, crossed his hands on his chin, and muttered for a moment, and after a while, he slowly spoke: "Eleventh brother, then how do you want to deal with it?" Do you want to tell your father? ”

"This matter can't let my father know, my father is very fond of the third brother now, even if we raise it, there is no evidence at hand, it's just our words, how can my father believe it? If the third brother hears the news, he will definitely make a corresponding plan. In such a situation, you and I have no advantage, if he takes the opportunity to fight back, then we will be convicted. Therefore, it is necessary to gather evidence before indictment. Song Qi said in a deep voice.

"How?"

"Naturally, I sent someone to follow the third brother and monitor his every move after tonight. Also, even the acrobatic troupe, we must also find out, their people must not have left in the back mountain, we can ask for help to capture those hidden thieves. Song Qi said his thoughts.

"That's the only way," Song Mill nodded, "If there is no breakthrough, you can only take the initiative to find a breakthrough." But where do we go to help? ”

"Yes, Xue Shaochen."

"Shaochen? No," Song Mo shook his head after hearing this, "Although King Tang has a very good relationship with our royal family, he is a king with a different surname after all, since ancient times, the most taboo thing in the royal family is that relatives with different surnames interfere in the affairs of the inner court. ”

Song Qi said: "Fifth brother, don't worry, you listen to me first, I said that I asked Shaochen to make a move, so that he could go into the back mountain to catch the thief, and at the same time let him be a witness, not that he would be in the court to discuss this matter, at most he would show up as a witness." ”

"However, it is not clear how many thieves there are in the back mountain, and it is difficult to deal with Shaochen alone," Song Mo shook his head and said, "There needs to be another person with strong martial arts." ”

Song Qi leaned forward slightly and said, "Fifth brother has the right person in his heart?" ”

Song Mill said: "Have you heard of Xiao Chongguang? ”

"Of course, it's the current Tiwei Chief, and the assassination a few days ago is the responsibility of their Tiwei Mansion."

Song Qi nodded in reply, and suddenly his eyes rolled, and he asked tentatively, "Do you want him to join?" There are so many samurai with unique skills in the court, why should they find a guard? ”

"That's right," Song Mian stood up and stood with his hands in his hands, "According to reliable information, just today, Xiao Chongguang and the young palace master of the Pomegranate Palace, Hua Mantian, fought against each other, and there was no winner in dozens of rounds, if it wasn't for Hua Mantian to hurt people with a secret weapon, it would be difficult to win." ”

Song Qi was taken aback when he heard this: "This person really has such kung fu?" Isn't it a rumor? Or is that flowery reputation just in vain, and even the commander of my Great Chu State can't win easily. ”

Song Mo said: "My source is absolutely not wrong, if the eleventh brother doesn't believe it, you can try it yourself." ”

"It's not that I doubt his martial arts, I'm just wondering if there are other people with more advanced martial arts who can be used by me." Song Qi rubbed his chin and said.

Song Mo knew that his younger brother had always been conceited with martial arts, unless it was a big man he had already seen, or publicly recognized, and other unknown martial artists, he didn't care about it at all, if he said in front of him a person he was not familiar with, how martial arts were outstanding, he would scoff at it, in Song Qi's cognition, only seeing is believing.

"Otherwise, the day after tomorrow will be the Winter Festival, I will let him participate in the Winter Festival in the name of King Ning's subordinate Keqing, when the time comes, the Great Chu martial arts masters will gather, whether it is true or not, you will know at a glance." Song Mill proposed.

Song Qi nodded and said, "That's fine." ”
