Chapter 244: February 11

Prince Yi's Mansion

Yang Yin glanced back at Qin Liuqi, hesitated for a moment and asked, "Is the news from Zhuang Die accurate?" ”

Qin Liuqi said in a low voice: "She found it in Fang Jie's room, Fang Xie was attacked halfway from Wu Yi's mansion, and then hurriedly returned to his shop, not long after, Wu Yiyi sent his subordinate who was called Jiu Shicai to visit Fang Jie's shop, stayed for about a stick of incense and then left. After that, Fang Xie was summoned to the palace. ”

When Fang Xie entered the palace, Zhuang Die didn't do it immediately, she was afraid that Fang Xie wouldn't believe that she had left someone to spy on her. After Fang Xie came back, he was directly invited by the prince, Zhuang Die knew that Fang Xie and they must have people from the palace staring, so he went in and searched. At first, nothing was found, only a wooden box with a lot of silver tickets. The large amount of money is a bit amazing, such a large amount of silver is obviously not Fang Jie's own, the only possibility is that Wu Yiyi gave it to him. ”

"Zhuang Die only found these silver tickets in Fang Jie's room, and before going out, he was unwilling to go back and look for them, and found some ashes on the back window, Zhuang Die jumped out of the back window and picked up a piece of paper with a corner left."

Qin Liuqi said: "I can only vaguely make out a few words on the paper, February 11, south of the city...... All the other words were burned. ”

Yang Yin was silent for a while and asked, "What do you think?" ”

Qin Liuqi thought for a while and replied, "If nothing else, Wu Yiyi should be going out of the city." The note should have been brought by the wine-colored wealth, and I think it was burned after Fang Xie read it. From this point of view, the relationship between Fang Xie and Wu Yiyi is definitely not as shallow as it seems on the surface, if nothing else, Fang Xie should know a lot of Wu Yiyi's secrets. ”

Yang Yin shook his head: "Have you ever thought about why such a secret thing should be passed on by a note?" Since Jiu Secai has already arrived at Fang Jie's shop, why don't you tell him in person? ”

Qin Liuqi was stunned, pondered for a while, and said, "What does the prince mean, Fang Xie did it on purpose?" ”

"It's not right either"

Yang Yin shook his head again: "What if Wu Yi is afraid that he will be overheard when he talks about wine and wealth?" The information you checked before said that the three people around Fang Xie were sent by Luo Weiran, the commander of the Ouchi Guards, and their cultivation was not bad. Fang Xie must have some scruples about them, and so did Wu Yiyi. If the emperor wants to attack Wu Yiyi, Fang Xie will definitely guard against the people of the Ouchi Guard. If you speak, you will inevitably be overheard, so you will use a note to deliver the message. After reading it, it will be burned and will not leave a trace. ”

Qin Liuqi thought for a while and said, "A few days ago, Fang Jie's two subordinates left Chang'an City, could it be to fight for Wu Yiyi?" Wu Yiyi's men were all nailed to death in Chang'an City, and we all know who moves. The subordinates also relaxed, and they didn't send anyone to keep an eye on where Fang Jie's men went. ”

"It is better to believe what you have than to believe what you don't have."

The corners of Yang Yin's mouth picked: "Anyway, Gu will not be directly involved in this matter, let those people prepare." Tomorrow I will go to the south of the city to wait, if Wu Yi really wants to escape, he will definitely take those account books with him. Anyway, those people are useless after twelve, and they can continue to use them now. ”

"Why February 11?"

Qin Liuqi asked.

Yang Yin pondered for a while and said: "The day after tomorrow, the army will go out, and when the time comes, the city gate will be strictly checked, and it will be difficult to get out." And tomorrow, everyone is busy with the affairs of the army, lest the emperor personally send the army out of the army. seems to be nervous, but it is actually beneficial to Wu Yiyi. If he dresses up in disguise, it will not be difficult to get out of Chang'an City. ”

"From today onwards, keep an eye on the Sanjin Houfu!"

Yang Yin waved his hand: "Since Fang Xie has a great relationship with Wu, he will definitely make some moves tomorrow." It's all watched, but the people in the house are not allowed to interfere. The most important day is the day after tomorrow...... No matter what happens tomorrow, we can't let Lone's plans for so many years go to waste. ”

Qin Liuqi nodded: "Subordinates understand." ”

Sanjin Houfu

Wu Yi sat back in the recliner, and the book in his hand stopped at the page he had turned at the beginning. Although his eyes were fixed on the book, he didn't read a word.

"Wine Coloured Wealth"

He called softly, and the fat man's wine-colored wealth swept over and lowered his head and asked, "Master Hou, what are your orders?" ”

Wu Yi frowned and was stunned for a while: "Fang Jie's method is not safe, and it may not be able to lure Prince Yi out from behind." Prince Yi is very clean in the world of goods, and he has no handle except for business matters. It's better to think about this matter in the long run, you go to Fang Jie's shop again and tell him that it's best to think it through. ”

Liquor Cai said: "Fang explained, there will definitely be no way to lure Prince Yi out tomorrow." But as long as those courtiers are trapped, there is nothing to worry about. Ten people were trapped, and at least one of them knew what the hell was going on behind some Prince Yi. As long as he moves quickly, Prince Yi won't have time to save those people at all. With this excuse to start the investigation, Prince Yi will inevitably be in a mess. ”

"Fang Xie is trying to force Prince Yi."

Wu Yi sighed and said, "He set this matter for tomorrow...... I haven't fully figured out what that means. ”

"Fang explained that Prince Yi seems to have not only attracted a large number of civil officials over the years. ”

"I know that."

Wu Yiyi's face was solemn: "Could it be that Fang Xie thinks that Prince Yi will do something big on February 12?" This doesn't make sense, even if Yu Manlou, the general of Zuo Wuwei, took away at least 50,000 horses in Chang'an City, but at least there are no less than 200,000 troops in other guards, even if Prince Yi has the means to reach the sky, can he control all the troops? His Majesty's dispatch of 100,000 horses from Gyeonggi Province to the northwest this time is indeed inappropriate. But it's not yet time to make Chang'an City air defense, let's talk about it...... Your Majesty still has 800 elites from the camp by his side, plus the forbidden army, and the people of the Ouchi Guard, even if there are tens of thousands of horses, how can they easily attack the Taiji Palace? ”

"That's not right!"

Wu stood up violently, and suddenly thought of something that had been overlooked.

February 11

Fang Xie changed into a strong outfit and put on his robe outside. Chaolu's knife was wrapped in cloth, and the inside of the robe was tied with the remnant knife given to him by the old lame man. After tidying up his body, he walked to the bronze mirror and looked at himself carefully, then turned back and asked Shen Tianfan: "Is it like it?" ”

Shen Tianfan nodded: "As long as you don't look closely closely, it's hard to see that you are an impostor." ”

The face in the bronze mirror is not Fang Jie's, but Wu Yiyi.

Last night, Fang Xie served ** in Zhuang Die's meal, making the little girl fall asleep and not wake up yet. It took the whole half of the night to glue a mask to Fang Jie. This mask was brought by Jiu Secai two days ago, and Wu Yiyi made a lot of his own masks for the sake of safety. On several occasions he went out dressed as a servant, and the bodyguards sat in the carriage with his mask on.

The mask was exquisitely made, and the fan used a mixture of flour and eggs to stick to the gap between the mask and the human face, so it didn't look flawed from a distance.

"Let's go"

Fang Xie smiled and went to put a hat on his head. Putting down the scarf from his hat, he couldn't see his face clearly. The three of them glanced at each other, and their faces were solemn.

"Fang Jie, I still think I should report to Your Majesty first."

Chen Xiaoru said: "If you do this, Your Majesty may not agree." ”

Fang Xie stopped, looked at Chen Xiaoru and asked, "Do you know who our opponent is?" ”

Chen Xiaoru nodded: "Naturally I know!" ”

"Who is it?"

Fang asked.

Chen Xiaoru replied, "Prince Yi." ”

Fang Xie shook his head: "It is His Majesty's own brother, and he is the Queen Mother's favorite son." Why can Prince Yi stay in Chang'an and not go to his fiefdom? It's because the Queen Mother is reluctant to give him up. There are illegal buildings in Prince Yi's mansion, why is no one impeached? Because the Empress Dowager personally spoke, the courtiers naturally did not want to anger the Empress Dowager. Doesn't Your Majesty know that Prince Yi's back is not clean? I must know that because the Queen Mother is here, His Majesty can't do anything without conclusive evidence. ”

"Say something out of your head...... Prince Yi is the son of the Queen Mother, but His Majesty is not! But His Majesty is the most filial person, and the world knows it. Do you understand what I mean? ”

Fang Xie asked: "If we wait for Your Majesty to do everything as courtiers, then what use does Your Majesty want us to do?" I agree with you to tell Grandpa Su about this, you go and ask him and see what Grandpa Su has to say? ”

Chen Xiaoru and the three of them were stunned, and the black boy was silent for a while and said, "But it's still too reckless, we only have these few people." ”

Fang Xie smiled: "More than that." ”

"Who else?"

"Can't tell."

Fang Xie said as he walked out: "If you three want to come along, you can come along, and if you don't want to, go to Taiji Palace to meet Your Majesty." I've done it, and if anything happens on the day I send out the army, won't you regret it? ”

"I really can't imagine what Prince Yi will do on the day of the army. He didn't have any chance of winning, there were hundreds of thousands of troops in Chang'an City, tens of thousands of flying fish robes, and 800 battalions! ”

Chen Xiaoru said: "Prince Yi, why? ”

"Because I don't know why."

Fang Xie said seriously: "That's why I want to force him." ”

"Let's go."

Fang Xie whispered to Shen Tianfan.

Shen Tianfan nodded, and walked out of the shop after Fang Jie. Chen Xiaoru and the three of them glanced at each other, and finally he gritted his teeth and followed: "If we can really find out the truth for Your Majesty, what do we have to fight again?" Fang Jie, this time we have entrusted our lives to you, you don't let us down. ”

Fang Xie smiled and shook his head: "My own life is also on this, I cherish my life a hundred times and ten thousand times stronger than cherishing your life." ”

He boarded the carriage and said to Nie Xiaoju, "Let's go, drive to Sanjin Houfu." ”

Sitting in the carriage, Fang Xie looked at the Shen Tian fan beside him and asked, "Why don't you bring a sword?" ”

Shen Tianfan asked rhetorically: "What is a sword?" ”

Fang Xie was stunned, shook his head and said, "Is it that when you cultivate to a certain point, you naturally become unable to speak human words?" ”

Shen Tianfan smiled and didn't speak again.

……

……

On the official road three hundred miles away from Chang'an City, a man covered in dust and blood galloped in the direction of Chang'an City on horseback. He was exhausted to the extreme, and if he hadn't tied his legs to the war horse, he would have fallen down long ago. His face was ugly and dirty, and he looked like he hadn't washed it in an unknown number of days.

The war horse's nose was spraying white gas, and its hooves had begun to weaken when it ran. When there were still dozens of meters away from the post station, the war horse finally couldn't support it and fell to the ground. Because his legs were tied to the horse, and when the horse fell, he also pressed down on the man's legs. He wailed in pain, trying to untie the rope but couldn't find it.

The post man who was on duty in the post station happened to see it when he came out to pee, he hesitated for a moment, and ran over with a few post guards to check.

"Quick, get me out, I have an urgent military situation to send to Chang'an!"

The man who was held down by the war horse pleaded.

Yi Cheng was startled, and then he saw that the person was wearing the clothes of a five-grade tooth general. It's just that this dress is covered with blood and mud, and you can't see it at all if you don't look closely.

"What's going on?"

Yi Cheng asked subconsciously while scrambling to save people.

The tooth general raised his head and looked at Yi Cheng but did not answer, his eyes were full of pain.
