After waiting for a while, the people from the Yin Mansion did not arrive, but Li Yuanba arrived first.

"Father-in-law, I heard that there are assassins in Zuixianglou, and the child is here to help in the war." Li Yuanba was running with sweat, his waist was green and his sword was green, and he was holding a drum urn and a golden hammer, with an excited look on his face.

He originally wanted to go shopping on the street and show off his Qingyu Sword, but he didn't expect to meet Mu Guiying halfway and learn that there were assassins in Zuixianglou. Such a fun thing, how could he be without him, so he rushed to come.

Lu Bu took a look, the door of the Zuixiang Building was closed, and he didn't know the situation inside, if the black-clothed assassin escaped, it would be difficult to know the secret of the Zuixiang Building.

"Yuanba."

"Yes."

Lu Bu pointed to the door of the Zuixiang Building and said, "Rush in!" ”

"No."

Li Yuanba approached the gate step by step, raised the drum urn and the golden hammer, and smashed it with the momentum of sweeping thousands of troops.

Thundered!

In the expectant eyes of everyone, the golden hammer smashed against the door panel. The already shaky door panel was smashed to pieces.

Lu Bu and Fan Lihua stepped forward quickly and rushed into the hall of the restaurant.

There was no one in the hall, the doors and windows were closed, and the light was dark. There seemed to be a faint light upstairs, and Lu Bu rushed up in three steps and two steps, followed by Li Yuanba and Fan Lihua.

When I got to the second floor, I saw a man in black crouching on the ground, burning a large pile of letters.

"Catch him!"

Burst!

As soon as Lu Bu ran over, he saw the man in black pull out his sword and wipe his neck to kill himself.

"They ran through the window."

Fan Lihua and Li Yuanba chased out along the opened window.

Lu Bu took off his coat and covered it over the fire, saving the burning letters. Pick up one casually and write it: "On December 10 of the second year of Jian'an, Gao Shun and Luo Cheng escorted 100,000 stone military rations to the three counties.... ”

picked up another letter and wrote: "On January 15 of the third year of Jian'an, Mu Guiying led 3,500 Danyang soldiers to Shouchun.... ”

Lu Bu read several more letters in a row, all of which were all kinds of information.

Obviously, Zuixianglou is not a place dedicated to selling liquor, but an intelligence base of the enemy, which is dedicated to transmitting information to the princes.

Picking up the unburned letter and wrapping it in his clothes, Lu Bu went downstairs.

Diao Chan and Pan Jinlian are all waiting in the hall.

There were a lot of people outside the door.

"Get out of the way..." A military official of the Ling Yin Mansion rushed outside the restaurant with two teams of soldiers. Picking up the crowd, he walked over to Lu Bu.

"The end will be late, please forgive your sins."

Lu Bu glanced at him, did not blame much, and said, "The herald is strict in the city and arrests the assassins." ”

"No."

Immediately afterwards, Mu Guiying and Ling Yin Futong sentenced Zhang Pan to arrive, and under Lu Bu's instructions, the Zuixiang Restaurant was sealed.

(It is necessary to mention that Zhang Pan is Zhang Liao's eldest brother, and there are few records of him in history, and he was made a marquis by Cao Cao because of Zhang Liao's merits.) This book is set that Zhang Fan's ability is ordinary, but he is diligent in politics. ）

And the people scattered one after another.

Lu Bu, Diao Chan, Pan Jinlian, and Mu Guiying, together with Zhang Fan, went to Ling Yin's Mansion.

The establishment of Ling Yin's Mansion was a major initiative of Lu Bu.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Ling Yin was a very powerful official position, and he grasped military power and internal affairs, which was equivalent to the Minister of State. But in the Han Dynasty, there was no such official position. Lu Bu picked him up again and took charge of the case in Shouchun City.

Although the rights are narrowed, they are equally important.

They are responsible for the safety of Shouchun City, as well as street patrols, standing guard inside and outside the city, guarding the granary, and so on.

Since the Yin Mansion had just been established, the number of troops was still very small, and more than half of them were seriously injured and disabled soldiers, and they were filled in. Therefore, the army of Ling Yin Mansion is also a very special group.

came to the lobby of Lingyin's mansion, and Lu Bu took the position. He glanced at the courteous Zhang Pan and asked, "Lord Zhang, if I remember correctly, you are Wenyuan's eldest brother?" ”

"Yes. The lowly office has just taken office today. ”

Mu Guiying chuckled and said, "You are unlucky, you just took office and ran into the matter of Zuixianglou." ”

"The lowly duty must arrest the assassin as soon as possible to reassure the people." Zhang Pan arched his hand.

"Well, that's for the best." Lu Bu nodded.

He has absolute trust in Zhang Liao, looking at Zhang Fan's face, he is also an honest person, no matter what his ability is, as long as he is loyal and willing to work hard, he can be appointed.

Not long after, Fan Lihua and Li Yuanba also came to Ling Yin's Mansion, accompanied by a military official from Lingyin's Mansion.

He is very young, he should be less than sixteen years old, he has a tiger head and a tiger brain, and he is a little bit like Zhang Liao.

Lu Bu asked suspiciously: "Wouldn't he also be Zhang Liao's relative?" ”

"Hui Zhugong, he is the eldest son of General Wenyuan, named Zhang Hu, and he only took office today." Zhang Fan's face was embarrassed.

"The last general, Zhang Hu, meet the lord." Zhang Hu stepped forward and saluted Lu Bu.

"Well, we met outside the Zuixiang Building just now." Lu Bu raised his hand, motioned for Zhang Hu to get up, and asked, "How is it, has the assassin been caught?" ”

Zhang Hu said: "The last general led his troops to chase all the way, and finally caught up with the assassins, but they all committed suicide. ”

Fan Lihua said: "There are a total of twenty-two people, and none of them are alive. It can be seen that they are all dead soldiers. ”

Lu Bu took out more than a dozen letters that had not been burned, threw them on the desk, and said, "Fortunately, the letters have not been burned, and I have already roughly guessed who sent them." ”

"Who?"

Fan Lihua and Mu Guiying both picked it up and looked at it.

"It's either Cao Cao or Yuan Shao!" Lu Budao.

Fan Lihua finished reading the letter and said: "Yuan Shaoyuan is in Hebei, and his hand can't reach that long, so it doesn't have much effect to obtain this information." It should be Cao Cao, he wants to find out the truth of my Shouchun City. ”

"Does he still want to go to war?"

Everyone in the hall is also seriously considering this issue.

Lu Bu smiled bitterly: "Don't be too sensitive. It is impossible to go to war. As I said some time ago, Cao Cao sent the Iron Lock Chariot to help Shanyue to warn me that even if he was defeated, he would have the strength to confront me, and then he would take the opportunity to attack Xiliang or Jingzhou. Now these black-clothed assassins, if Cao Cao had sent them, it would be the same reason, he wanted to have a more comprehensive grasp of our movements, so as to prepare for the attack on Xiliang or Jingzhou. ”

"If it's sent by Yuan Shao, then the matter is serious..." Speaking of this, Lu Bu glanced at Fan Lihua. I wanted to urge Fan Lihua to return to Xuzhou sooner, but thinking that she had just come and hadn't watched Shouchun properly, it was really hard to speak.

After a pause, Lu Bu said: "Of course, no matter which princes, they will send some meticulous work and scouts to the enemy's territory to find out the details of the enemy. Didn't we also send a lot of fine work to other princes? I think it's a normal thing to do, and there's no need to make a fuss. ”

The crowd nodded.

Fan Lihua and Mu Guiying also agreed with Lu Bu's statement.

Zhang Pan arched his hand and said: "I will send someone to investigate and remove all the details in the city." ”

"It's not necessary, just pay attention to it later."

"No."

Lu Bu changed his words and asked, "Now Ling Yin Mansion, how many troops are there?" Are they all wounded? ”
