After the execution, the people dispersed on their own, but this was not good news for Zhao Junsheng and others, he was sure that the imperial court had deployed eyeliner around the execution ground, more than 100 of them, plus the people who were ambushed around, a total of more than 200 people could never hide the screening of the imperial court's eyeliner.

"Lao Lu, you come to break the queen!" Zhao Junsheng made a gesture to Lu Xuanbo, who was standing in the corner of a nearby street, and he could only rest assured after Lu Xuanbo broke off.

"Understood!" Lu Xuanbo replied with a gesture, turned around and disappeared into the corner, while Zhao Junsheng and the others all left quickly.

At this time, on the second floor of an inn, a shadow stood by the window and looked at the crowd of people who were slowly leaving, and a pair of beautiful eyes kept scanning the crowd.

Some people with sweat towels around their necks caught her attention.

"Someone!"

A spy appeared behind Qianying: "Leader? ”

"Send a few clever people to follow those with sweat towels around their necks, and I guess they'll end up meeting somewhere, staring at them, but not by surprise!" Qianying commanded.

"Yes, Chief!"

Although the spies of the White Egret Division are also proficient in the art of stalking, Zhao Junsheng's guards are not vegetarians, they quickly dispersed in all directions after retreating, picking alleys and walking, often stopping deliberately at the corners to see if anyone is following, and the spies sent by Yuling were soon exposed.

When the spies of the Egret Division learned that they had been exposed, they simply started to arrest people directly, and a fight was inevitable.

The two sides are inseparable in an alley, the Egret Division is included in some people in the rivers and lakes, good at moving and dodging, fighting in a small area is their strength, and Zhao Junsheng's guards are all from the army, the moves are generally wide open and closed, restricted by the walls of the house in the alley, the moves are really not open, it is inevitable to be controlled, plus the people of the Egret Division took the lead and attacked from afar with crossbow arrows, and soon two plainclothes guards were captured, and the remaining three were also injured.

At this moment, Lu Xuanbo appeared, a sharp sword made him superb, and the two of them killed the two Egret spies in front of him.

"You guys withdraw first, and they'll hand it over to me!" After Lu Xuanbo rescued the two captured guards, he asked them to take the three injured people away.

"Take care!" Several guards hugged their fists to Lu Xuanbo and left quickly.

Lu Xuanbo took the head of the hat and looked at the spies of the Egret Division with half of his face exposed: "Your opponent is me!" ”

"Up!" The leading Egret spies raised their hands and rushed forward.

There was a clanging of weapons, and after a cup of tea, eight or nine spies of the Egret Division fell to the ground.

Lu Xuanbo lowered his blood-dripping sword to wipe the blood on a corpse, put the sword into its sheath and walked towards the exit of the alley.

Suddenly, a white shadow flashed like a ghost, and Huer appeared on the roof, on the wall, and finally at the mouth of the alley, and as her figure fell, the white dress fluttering in the wind slowly stopped.

"Master Lu wants to leave after killing so many people in the palace, isn't it too bad to give the palace face?" The white shadow slowed down, and a hat covered by a white gauze scarf was placed on top of her head.

Lu Xuanbo's face was vigilant, and his body was instantly on alert, but he knew that this princess had learned the Netherworld Ghost Dance Sword from Zhao Junsheng, so he couldn't take it lightly, and said in a deep voice: "Princess Yuling, it's been a long time!" ”

"Where is Zhao Junsheng?"

Lu Xuanbo said: "It's redundant to ask the princess, how can Lu Mou, as a servant, betray the master?" ”

"In that case, this palace has no choice but to offend!" After Yu Ling finished speaking, he made an instant move, his figure flashed, and a soft sword stabbed silently at the side of Lu Xuanbo's neck.

This speed, body technique and move speed are as fast as lightning, which makes people unguardable, Lu Xuanbo thinks that his body technique and reaction speed are fast enough, and there are few people in the world who can beat him, but he didn't expect that the jade spirit would be terrifying after cultivating the Nether Ghost Dance Sword.

A dozen moves in a row, Lu Xuanbo only had the ability to parry and dodge, he had no power to fight back at all, and he also suffered three sword wounds on his body, he was the original owner of this martial art, one of the two secret guards of Emperor Taiwu Tuoba Tao, and the skill of this Jade Spirit Princess was better than that of eliminating sorrow, especially with this soft sword, her sword moves were simply unguardable.

For a while, Lu Xuanbo was in danger, and he would soon be unable to support it.

At this moment, suddenly an embroidery needle let out a screaming sound and shot directly at the jade spirit, and the figure of the jade spirit who was dodging and moving was forced to stop.

The embroidery needle was silent when it was fired, but the sound was deliberately made by the person who launched it.

A series of embroidery needles sealed the space where Jade Ling was evading, forcing her to stop in place.

"Lao Lu, the officers and soldiers of the brigade are here, don't leave quickly!" A sound that passed into Lu Xuanbo's ears entered Lu Xuanbo's ears, and he immediately took his sword and quickly left the alley with a few jumps and disappeared.

Yu Ling shouted angrily into the air: "Zhao Junsheng, you come out for me, don't think that if you don't come out, I won't know it's you, you are the only one in the world who can launch flying needles by this means!" ”

Zhao Junsheng didn't show up, only his voice came from the air: "Jade Ling, you use the swordsmanship I taught you to deal with my people, if there is a next time, I will have to withdraw the swordsmanship!" ”

"Hah, that's funny! Don't think I don't know, the master of this sword technique back then was my imperial brother's secret guard to dispel sorrows, and the ghost dance sword was her unique sword technique, and it was you who killed her and took the sword book from her! Now that this sword technique has been cultivated by me and returned to the royal family, it is the return of things to its original owner, why should you take it back? ”

"Why did Tuoba Jun kill Mulan?" Zhao Junsheng asked rhetorically, "He oppressed people with force, and sent Mulan to prison on trumped-up charges to kill her, I can also forcibly withdraw your swordsmanship, no need to be reasonable!" ”

Yu Ling said: "He is him, I am me!" ”

"He is the emperor, you are the chief treasurer of the Egret Division, you actually say that he is him and you are you, don't you think your words are unconvincing? Jade Ling, if you and your Egret Si stop me from acting again, I won't be polite to you again, this is the last time! ”

Soon after Zhao Junsheng's voice disappeared, some spies from the White Egret Division came over from behind, and one of them clasped his fists and asked, "Chief, what is next······ Please show the chief! ”

Yu Ling was silent for a long time and ordered: "From now on, no one in the Egret Division is allowed to clash with the people from Youzhou, only to inquire about the news!" Also, today's palace observed, Zhao Junsheng's people are definitely more than 30 people, they must have entered the city from other passages, immediately send someone to the palace to check, to see if there are other passages into the city or out of the city, to find those ground rats, they must know the news, and report it immediately after finding it! ”

One of his spies hesitated and said: "Chief, we are also the official government of the imperial court, there is no need to be afraid of him Zhao Junsheng, the leader will definitely disappoint the brothers below when he gives this order!" ”

With a "bang", a sword light flashed, and the spy who had just doubted Yu Ling's order fell to the ground with his bloody neck in his hands.

Yu Ling looked at the others with a cold face: "From now on, in the White Egret Division, the order of the main palace is the sky, who dares not to obey or question, die-"

The others knelt on the ground in fright: "Yes, Chief! ”

Before dusk, all the guards, including the wounded, returned to their foothold one after another.

After the counting, Zhao Junsheng learned that there was no loss of personnel, so he was relieved, although this time he found the flaw in time, learned that the execution of Hua Mulan was fake, and retreated in time, there was no loss of personnel, but the rescue of Hua Mulan is still no clue.

The next step is to find out where Mulan is being held, but Tuoba Jun is obviously very vigilant against this, and there is no news from all sides, and no matter how you find out, you can't find out.

Early the next morning, Guo Yi hurried to the mansion where Zhao Junsheng was hiding and reported: "Lord, there is bad news, the emperor has made an order, and he will behead his wife at Chengguang Gate at noon four days later!" ”

Zhao Junsheng's face changed slightly, "Is the news reliable?" ”

"The edicts were directly announced and posted outside the city gates, and the imperial court obviously did not want to hide the news. The subordinates suspect that this time it is only true! ”

Zhao Junsheng also knows that this time there is a chance that he will really kill Mulan, the area around Chengguang Gate is an urn city, and the people will definitely not be allowed to watch, and when the time comes, all the soldiers and horses on the city wall and in the urn city will be the imperial court, and Zhao Junsheng is impossible to rush into the robbery field to rescue people, that is not to save people, but to send people to death!

Tuoba Jun's purpose is very clear, that is, to kill Mulan under Zhao Junsheng's nose and see what he can do, this is the end of disobeying the court and disobeying the edict!

Zhao Junsheng thought of many ways to rescue him, but none of them worked, and in the end, "It seems that there is only one way left!" ”

Zhao Junsheng took a pen and paper and quickly wrote down some words, and handed the paper to Guo Yi: "You go and buy these things, the more quantities, the better!" ”

Guo Yi took the paper and looked at it, "Charcoal, sulfur, saltpeter, clay pots? Although it's not winter, it's not impossible to buy charcoal, sulfur and saltpeter want to buy in large quantities, I'm afraid it's not easy, the stock of general pharmacies is very small, it seems that you have to find someone to inquire! ”

Zhao Junsheng said: "Go to Xuandu Temple to find those Taoist priests and see where the sulfur and saltpeter they use for alchemy are purchased from!" ”

Guo Yi patted his head: "Yes, Taoist priests have to use these things for alchemy, they must know where to buy them, and their subordinates will go!" ”

In less than half a day, Guo Yi bought back more than 3,000 catties of various raw materials, Zhao Jun put the raw materials in a basket and carried them out of the city through the secret road, he wanted to go outside the city to configure gunpowder and conduct tests, although he knew the formula, but also to test the explosion to determine the amount of charge.
