Chapter 41

Seeing someone sneaking into the county office, Yang Chen's heart moved, hiding in the shadows, he stared at the other party's line, and after he turned around, he hurriedly followed quietly, he wanted to see who this person would be, and what was the purpose of entering the county government late at night.

In addition to the second hall in the front hall, as well as the three yamen where the county order and family members stayed, between the two and three yamen, this area is often set aside to house the county officials, which can be regarded as the welfare of this class, it is an official house, and Yang Chen also lived in one of the official houses with a separate courtyard.

The target of this uninvited guest who sneaked into the county government at night was also one of the official residences, and when he came to this small courtyard, he also looked back a few times vigilantly, but he didn't find Yang Chen, who had hidden his figure one step earlier. Then, he climbed over the courtyard wall more than half a person high, went straight to a room, and knocked on the window rhythmically.

A moment later, a little light came on in the room, and as soon as the door opened, the man was able to flash in, and the door closed tightly. Yang Chen, who was hiding outside, did not delay when he saw this, and jumped out of the next jump, and climbed over the courtyard wall in a few clicks, and then came to the window of the room with a short body, eavesdropping on the content of the conversation inside.

A slightly surprised and complaining voice said in a low voice, "Why did you choose this time to meet me?" Didn't you say that you would see each other outside? If I am seen in the county office, it will be a lot of trouble. Obviously, this person is the owner of this house, that is, the official of the county government.

"Hey, if it weren't for the urgency, how could I have risked running to meet you? Although we have made an appointment to leave a mark outside to discuss, I am afraid that before you look for me, the matter will be found out. The person who came also replied in a suppressed voice.

"So what the hell is going on? How can it scare you like that? ”

"Did you know that just two days ago, someone was secretly digging up the wall where we were repairing the city?"

"What? Who would be so bold? His voice was full of panic, and even his breathing seemed a little short.

"Fortunately, it was discovered at the time and reported to me, so I immediately found two people who were digging the wall by hand. Then they were brought to me for questioning, and guess what happened? ”

"It's time for you, don't sell it." The other party urged angrily.

"They were instructed by others to dig up the city wall while we were unprepared to see what was going on, but it was Master Ji of the county government who let them do it. The two were originally thieves who robbed the tomb, but they were thrown into prison because of the incident, but Master Ji found them and asked the two of them to atone for their crimes, pretending to be people's husbands and blending into the team of repairing the city......"

"Why did Master Ji do this...... As soon as the words came out, he seemed to understand something again, and snorted softly: "Master Ji is a person from Zhu County's order, could it be that he, Zhu Xuan, has already become suspicious of us?" ”

"Nine times out of ten, that's what I think happened. And, by the time I took them, they had already passed the message......"

"What...... What's the news? ”

"What news did you say? I'm afraid that Zhu Xuan already has a lot of inside information now, if we don't take action again, you and I will have to be in prison when we meet again

。 ”

"This ...... How good is that? The man was suddenly out of order, and the figure in the room flickered, and it was evident that he could not sit still, so he got up and paced inside.

After a moment of silence, a voice rang out: "Now, there is only one way left." Since he Zhu Xuan refuses to settle down, he has no choice but to take this last road. ”

"You mean, take him ...... No, no, he is an official of the imperial court, and he is the county commander of my county, if something happens to him, the court will definitely investigate it to the end. Even Yang Yiqing of Datong will be alarmed, and you and I will be in danger at that time! The other party hurriedly spoke out against it.

"What about the court officials? Didn't we deal with it? Just over half a month ago, wasn't the canonical history surnamed Yang almost killed by us in prison? ”

"That's different. He just gave us a chance at the time, as long as our hands and feet were clean, there would be no trouble in killing him. But Zhu Xuan is different, he has a higher status, and he will not give us this opportunity. What's more, didn't we finally succeed in Yang Chen before and let him get out? ”

There was another short silence, and then the man said: "Now there is no other choice, either he Zhu Xuan dies, or we are all finished together, including you!" ”

"I ......"

"And don't worry, since I dare to say this, there is naturally a proper way. You should know that a group of Tartars suddenly came to our Biguan County two days ago, right? It seemed that the other party nodded, and he continued: "So this time it has to fall on them." When the time comes, get rid of Zhu Xuan, push the charges on them, and kill them again, won't it be foolproof, and even Yang Yiqing can't do anything about us? If he wants to blame, he can only blame me for the gullibility of the defenders of the pass, and do not understand the truth that those who are not of my race must have different hearts, and let the spies into the city. ”

"This ......" The other party suddenly fell into a tangle, and said after a while: "Since you already have a comprehensive plan, why do you still come to me?" ”

"Zhu Xuan has always been careful, and he is always hiding in this county office, it's not easy to kill him, don't you have to rely on people like you to make a move? What's more, if you want people to believe that this is the work of a Tartar spy, you have to leave some clues, and you have to ask for it. Oh, you take this thing first, and then leave it next to Zhu Xuan's corpse, and confirm the crime of those Tartars. ”

When Yang Chen heard this, he couldn't help but show a sneer on his face. There is actually a big problem in this statement, you can easily steal into the county office, and it shouldn't be too difficult to assassinate Zhu County. And once you kill someone, it's even easier to leave things at the scene of the murder, so why bother with it? The only explanation is to let the official inside do things for him, and if something goes wrong, he will be blamed on him, right?

However, this person was obviously confused by this sudden change, and he didn't think deeply about it at all, and actually responded. After a while, he spoke again: "But if he dies in the county government after all, it is not appropriate after all, how can those Tartars be so familiar with the situation in my county government and find Zhu Xuan?" ”

"And what do you mean?"

"The day after tomorrow, Zhu County will go to the granary to check the grain storage, why don't you choose to do it there? When the time comes, your people can also deliberately stab me, so that my suspicion will be completely cleared. "Obvious

Of course, this one's mind is quite flexible.

The other party groaned slightly, and then responded: "According to your wishes, the granary is open, and it is more convenient to get out after you succeed than the county government." As he spoke, he said again: "This matter is very important, don't let it slip out." Okay, I'm leaving, you get ready to prepare. ”

Hearing this, Yang Chen's body moved, and he quickly left the window and flashed into the shadows behind the room. And just as he was hiding, the door was opened again, and the black shadow swept out quickly.

After taking a look at the room that was still lit with lights and candles, Yang Chen made a decision to continue to follow the late-night visitor. Anyway, he already knew the identity of the owner of this courtyard, and the most important thing to find out now was the exact identity of this night walker.

So, on this late autumn night, two figures ran quickly from the backyard of the county government one after the other, and quietly crossed the high courtyard wall and headed towards the north of the city. However, the one who was hurrying in front of him didn't know that he was already following a tail, so he only cared about moving forward.

Soon, the two of them came to the military camp located under the North City. Then, something that gave Yang Chen a headache appeared. The one in front of him went straight to the guards who were keeping vigil in the open, and only flashed his waist card, and the other party put him directly into the gate. And Yang Chen, who was following him, didn't have such treatment, so he could only sigh.

This barracks is not anywhere else, and it is not like the county government that there are almost no guards, so it is not easy for him to sneak in, let alone continue to follow the guy to find out his identity.

In the end, Yang Chen could only stop outside the barracks and watch the other party completely disappear into the darkness.

Although this tracking ended in failure, Yang Chen was not much discouraged, but regretted that he could not do his best. After all, today's harvest is already enormous.

Tonight, he not only got in touch with Zhu Xuan and gained his trust, paving the way for the next action, but also got such an extremely unexpected clue.

Originally, the issue of the construction of the Guancheng here in the Bitou Pass had reached a dead end, and there were almost no clues to be found. Unexpectedly, tonight, someone put such an important clue back in front of him, which made his spirits suddenly lift and know that his opportunity had come.

"The day after tomorrow, where is the granary?" After whispering, Yang Chen turned around and re-entered the darkness......

"What do you say? Those people really have such courage to dare to assassinate Zhu County? Ding Yueqian said with surprise on his face after listening to Yang Chen's story.

"It shouldn't be wrong, so what we need to do next is to take down the assassin while ensuring the safety of Zhu Xianling. As long as the assassin is taken, all the previous doubts will be solved. Yang Chen said with confidence.

"But it's not easy. You and I are Tartars now, let alone others. Ding Yueqian rubbed his chin and frowned a little embarrassed. Indeed, their current identities are a bit sensitive, and if they really appear there, it will be easier for people to be accused of crimes.

"We're going to have to give it a try, anyway!" Yang Chen insisted.
