Chapter 53: Gathering
Three days later, late at night, in the Liuhua Pavilion.
Yuan Tan walked into the room in a black robe, followed by Zhang Quan and others, at the same time as he entered the Xianghua Building. There were countless black-clothed people scattered around the entire Xianghua Building for several miles, on the rooftops, outside the attic. Even the lantern hanging high above was ambushed by a man in black with dewy eyes, and the waist knife behind him flickered in the light.
When the group came to the house, Yuan Tan took off his black robe. casually threw it to the man in black on the side, sat down casually, looked around, and slowly spoke:
"Wang Ling hasn't come yet?!"
Zhang Quan on the side said in a low voice:
"Yuan Gong doesn't know, in Xudu. There are Cao Cao's detectives everywhere, presumably Lord Wang wants to be more safe, so he came late. ”
Yuan Tan stopped talking, closed his eyes and fell silent.
In the Shadow Guard Mansion, Sun Dianchen came to Yang Fang's room again. looked at Yang Fang and the others, changed their hippie smiling faces in the past, and said with a cautious face:
"You two, Yuhong told me last night. Tonight, all the servants in their Xianghualou are not allowed to go out, so they can only stay in their own rooms. And the Liuhua Pavilion was tightly sealed. If it weren't for the fact that I usually go to see Yuhong, I would climb over the wall and through the window, and I would be familiar with the road. Yesterday, I couldn't even enter the Xianghua Building, it seems that there is a drama tonight!! ”
Yang Yuan stared at Sun Dianchen for a long time.
"Brother Sun really only needs that painting?!"
"Of course, I'm not interested in anything else. Only love beauties and babies!! Hey..."
Sun Dianchen rubbed his hands and smiled.
The three looked at each other and got up at the same time. Extinguish the lights, take advantage of the vast night, and go towards the Xianghua Tower.
Yu Fei was told by Wang Ling three days ago that he would go to Xianghualou to meet today. When he went there for the first time, Yu Fei knew what Wang Ling wanted to do. Although there had been speculations before, when I learned the truth, I was still shocked.
Tonight, he changed the night with another person on the grounds that he was not feeling well. Go to Xianghua Tower alone...
Yang Fang and the three of them were walking, and Sun Dianchen suddenly paused. looked at Yu Fei, who was walking in front of him, and frowned.
"What's wrong?!"
Yang Fang first discovered Sun Dianchen's strangeness.
"The one in front is the guard at the south gate, called Yu Fei. It's not the first time I've seen him in Xianghualou. And he often goes in and out of the Liuhua Pavilion, so late at night. Looking at the direction in which he is going, I am afraid it is the same as ours. Looks, you two, have a surprise tonight! ”
The corners of Sun Dianchen's mouth rose, staring at the figure in front of him. The three of them continued to walk forward without stopping...
In the distance, the three of them saw the tall attic with hanging lanterns.
Suddenly, Sun Dianchen grabbed Yang Fang and the others.
"Wait, no!!"
Sun Dianchen's ears moved slightly, and he listened carefully.
"There are people around, more than one place!!"
Yang Yuan turned around and walked lightly. In an instant, he crossed the roof on the side, a few breaths. Walking back and forth on the rooftops of a nearby house...
After a moment, Yang Yuan returned to his place with a gloomy face, and said in a low voice:
"For some reason, there are countless killers hidden around here!!"
Yang Fang and Sun Dianchen were stunned at the same time.
"Killer?! Why is the killer hiding here, so many people have entered the city, haven't the people from the Prime Minister's Mansion found out?! ”
Yang Fang looked around and said cautiously.
"I feel like something big is going to happen, let's go back and tell the Grand Commander!!"
"Don't don't, I don't know anything now, if we rush back to report it, once we startle the snake. It may turn out that you won't get anything, so let's go and see first!! ”
Sun Dianchen hurriedly said.
The three of them were silent for a while. After a while, the three of them set off for Xianghua Tower again.
Relying on Sun Dianchen's keen hearing, the three of them dodged one dark whistle after another. The closer they got closer, the more frightened the three became.
After a long time, the three of them finally came to the alley on the right side of the downstairs. Looking up at the three-story attic, Sun Dianchen swallowed.
"There are so many people in ambush around here, this upstairs must be full of people!!"
He turned his head to look at Yang Yuan on the side.
"Second Brother Yang, can this work?!"
Yang Yuan glanced up, the corners of his mouth raised.
"It's not hard for me, big brother, help me!"
Yang Fang crossed his hands and squatted down, and Yang Yuan stepped on the palm of his hand. Yang Fang got up instantly and lifted up fiercely. Yang Yuan was like a ghost, instantly floating on the attic on the second floor.
As soon as he landed, a dagger that flashed with cold light quickly flashed in Yang Yuan's hand. Stooped down and groped his way forward.
Not long after Yang Yuan ascended the attic, Wang Ling quickly walked into the attic in a black robe.
Coming to the Liuhua Pavilion on the third floor, Wang Ling put down his hoodie. Looking at the people in the room, he said a little apologetically:
"You've been waiting for a long time, and you have to be cautious for safety!"
Yuan Tan's eyes, which had always been closed, opened silently.
"Lord Wang, I risked my life to meet with you this time, are you ready?!"
Seeing that Yuan Tan went straight to the topic, Wang Ling was not ambiguous. Yu Fei, who stood aside after coming in all the time.
"This is Yu Fei, the guard guarding the south gate. When the army of Yuan Gong arrives, he will open the city gate and welcome the army into the city!! ”
Everyone's eyes instantly focused on Yu Fei's body, looking up and down.
"I don't know how many people Yuan Gong is going to bring here?!"
"Cao Cao must have sent people to monitor me day and night, and my army cannot move in advance. But in the name of birthday celebrations, I will bring 3,000 elite soldiers. Thousands of goats come as gifts, as long as our operation is successful. My army will arrive quickly!! ”
Yuan Tan closed his eyes slightly and spoke slowly.
"Three thousand..."
Wang Ling frowned, bowed his head and was silent.
"Don't you dare to ask Yuan Gong, who are the thousands of goats??"
Yu Fei bowed his hand slightly and looked at Yuan Tan.
Yuan Tan turned his head to look at Zhang Quan on the side, smiling silently.
"These thousands of goats are both gifts and talismans. The streets and alleys of this capital can hide ambushes, and we use these thousands of goats as the vanguard to walk on the streets. With these goats blocking the streets, even if Cao Cao had more ambush soldiers, it would be useless. As long as we enter the Prime Minister's Mansion safely, and cooperate with the Royal Forest Army controlled by Lord Wang. It's not a problem to take down the Prime Minister's Mansion!! Yuan Gong's army will go out day and night after we set out. After tailing, you can enter the city in advance before others rush to the rescue and take Xudu in one fell swoop!! ”
After listening, Wang Ling let out a long breath.
"In this way, let's do it on the night of Cao Cao's birthday. All of us here tonight are to keep it strictly confidential, and once the action is done, we will not meet again for the sake of safety. ”
Yuan Tan nodded slightly and stood up.
"Lord Wang, I must leave immediately at night, in order not to attract attention. I won't take away the hundreds of brothers outside, these people are all dead soldiers of my Yuan family. Adults should be kind to them, and when the time comes, they will come in handy!! ”
Yang Yuan, who was standing outside the three-story attic, was shocked in his heart at this moment, and he took a deep breath. Squatting down and listening to the ear, he didn't notice at all that not far behind him was a sunspot man, holding a scimitar, quietly approaching...
