Chapter 104: The Content of the Secret Letter
However, things came so suddenly, Zhao Xun just wanted everyone to retreat, and another herald came to report.
"Report ...... My lord, we have caught a person whose identity is very suspicious, but he refuses to explain his identity, saying that he is the person of Lord Sima of the Governor's Mansion, but there is nothing to identify him. ”
"Oh? Sima Yun's people, this is really interesting! I want to see if it's Sima Yun's person who fell to the ground. Bring him to me! Zhao Xun became interested and said with a smile.
"Get in!" The two guards walked in with a lean man, who glanced at the people in the tent with a snort and ignored them. Everyone in the big tent could see at a glance that this person was a person in the army, and he was also a first-class elite explorer in the army.
"Get on your knees!" The guards shouted loudly.
"You are also worthy? Don't look at me either......"
"Someone! Break his leg for me! I want to see how precious his legs are when they fall to the ground, and they can't bend down! Zhao Xun interrupted the lean man's words in a cold voice.
Hearing Zhao Xun's words, the thin man's face turned pale, and before he could say anything, the two guards behind him swung their long knives fiercely and struck hard with their scabbards.
"Ah......h
"Pick him up for me!" Zhao Xun still said coldly, but in the ears of the lean man, it was like the devil's voice.
"If you keep screaming, I'll have the guards knock out your teeth!"
"Hmm......" The thin man hurriedly shut up, but he was in pain, so he could only shut up and make a whining sound. The people of the big tent did not expect that Zhao Xun would act like this, in their opinion, this is the horse of the Governor's Mansion, and it is already wrong to arrest him by himself, let alone punish him now, this will let the Governor's Mansion know, and it will not make a fuss.
"I ask you to answer, if you dare to fool me, your hands will be gone, I want to know if people who have lost their hands and legs will be reused by your master, and whether it is worth it for you to do so."
"What's your name?"
"Ironwood ......"
"Where are you coming from?"
"Yingzhou ......"
"See whom?"
"Sima Yun, the governor of Yanzhou Mansion."
"Do what?"
"Send the letter!"
"For whom?"
"I don't know about this......"
"Don't want to say?"
"No, I really don't know, I'll just send the letter, and ignore the rest." Seeing that the young man on the main seat seemed to be about to torture himself again, Temu said urgently.
"What about faith?"
"In ...... In my arms! ”
As soon as Zhao Xun made a look, the guards searched in Tiemu's arms, and immediately found a secret letter. Zhao Xun took it and opened it, and his face showed a strange smile.
"My lord! What is written above? Could it be that Sima Yun is playing some tricks? Zhao Qingshan asked angrily, and the rest of the people were also curiously waiting for Zhao Xun's answer.
"Want to know? See for yourselves! As he spoke, Zhao Xun's secret letter was lowered.
After Zhao Qingshan took it, he looked at it with wide eyes, turned over the secret letter over and over again, and even looked at it upside down a few times, and after a while, he said suspiciously: "My lord! What does this mean? I don't understand! ”
Zhao Ning and the others waited for a long time before Zhao Qingshan didn't understand such a sentence, and they all rolled their eyes.
"I'll take a look!" After Lin Luo took the letter from Zhao Qingshan's hand, he also looked left and right, up and down, with a confused expression on his face.
"How? What was said? Luo Qi, the captain of the Guzi Battalion, was also interested. He was born in the government army, and was pulled into the Huolin Army by Zhao Xun, and after being reused by Zhao Xun, he was also integrated into the Huolin Army.
"I don't understand it, it's all numbers, what does that mean?" After saying that, he handed the letter to the other people around him.
After the letter was bypassed in everyone's hands for a week, it finally returned to the table in front of Zhao Xun, but everyone was full of doubts. Because the letter is composed of numbers, and there are no Chinese characters, which makes everyone extremely puzzled.
"Secret letter, sure enough, it's a secret letter! It's so meticulous, Tetsuki, tell his secret, right? Zhao Xun chuckled.
Tiemu said in a loud voice: "This adult, the villain really doesn't know what is written on the letter, what do you want me to say?" If the little one knows the content of this letter, why should it be necessary to bring a confidential letter, wouldn't it be more convenient to dictate it directly? ”
Zhao asked: "You may really not know the content of the letter, because the people above you don't want the news to leak from you, but before you set off, your boss must have told you something?" ”
"The villain doesn't know what the adults mean?"
"Don't know? Do you really don't know or don't want to say? I'll give you a hint if your boss has mentioned the name of the book to you. ”
When Tie Mu heard this, his face turned pale, and before he could speak, Zhao Xun continued: "I have always heard that the ten fingers are connected to the heart, and I also want to see if it is true, I heard that there are various criminal laws in the Tiqi Division, one of which is to pick apart the ten fingernails of people, smear honey on them, and get a bunch of ants...... You know how it feels? Absolutely unforgettable! ”
Tie Mu looked at Zhao Xun's young and smiling face, as if he was a devil, and his heart twitched.
"You're only a messenger, not a dead soldier, so there's no need to put your life on the line. Even if you don't say it, I can find the answer with some time, you say? ”
Although the people around did not understand the meaning of what Zhao Xun said, they vaguely knew that Zhao Xun had figured out the confidentiality of this letter.
Beads of sweat appeared on Tiemu's forehead, he couldn't believe how the young man in the main seat guessed the secret on the letter, he wanted to hide it, and he also wanted to say an answer nonsense, but when he saw the young man staring at him with a smile, he knew that no matter how much he tried to hide it, he would only suffer more.
"When I was asked to deliver the message, I only said one ritual, and the rest was gone." After Temu finished speaking, his whole body loosened and collapsed to the ground.
"Lu Shijie, take the letter, look for it in the way of one word as a page or article, two words as a line, and three words as a word, and see who is written in the letter?" Etiquette is also the rite in the Four Books and Five Classics.
"Seconds! Adults are so sharp-minded! Subordinates will do it! Lu Shijie high-fived.
Keen? Of course not, seeing these numbers, Zhao Xun remembered the word password, and then thought of the methods used in some TVs, so he thought of this section.
"Come on! Take him down to me, and take care of him! ”
Not long after, Lu Shijie walked back with a heavy face.
"Translation?"
"It's out! But ......" Lu Shijie's solemn expression made Zhao Xun feel that there must be a lot of secrets in this letter.
"My lord, you better see for yourself!" Lu Shijie said in a deep voice.
Zhao Xun took the letter, which read: Shunzhou, Yingzhou, and Weizhou have been successful, and they took the opportunity to dedicate the city and the Bolu Department to help them pacify the Yanzhou Mansion.
Zhao Xun was suddenly a little dizzy, Sanzhou had been lost! What's going on? The reinforcements that the entire Yanzhou Mansion was waiting for were gone, not only were they gone, but even the land of Sanzhou was lost. Zhao Xun is really unbelievable, the land of Sanzhou, if it is gone, it will be gone, it is not as good as Yanzhou City! What's more, his mother and woman are in Yingzhou......
"Your Excellency, Your Excellency!" Seeing Zhao Xun's ugly face stunned, Lu Shijie said softly.
"Oh...... Nothing big! The previous arrangements made by the various ministries have been doubled down and must not be ignored. Seeing that everyone was waiting for his answer, Zhao Xun hurriedly said, of course, he would not tell some inexplicable information about the origin, although it is very likely to be true.
"Yes......" Although Zhao Xun didn't say anything, everyone could still see the severity of the matter from his expression.
"Zhao Hai, Ye Chaoge, the two of you stay, Zhao Ning, you also stay, and the rest go to carry out the order."
"Zhao Hai, Ye Chaoge, the two of you, from now on, keep an eye on any movement in Sima Yun's Mansion, and don't let any stranger enter within 100 meters of Sima Mansion, if you do, you will be killed! Zhao Ning, from today onwards, any messengers and heralds who come back from the West Gate will be brought to the West Camp for me, and they will not be allowed to enter the Assassin's Mansion and the Governor's Mansion. ”
"Intercept messengers and heralds? This one...... Isn't it a little too much! Zhao Ning hesitated, although it is not in agreement with the official government of Yanzhou City now, it has not come to this point.
"See for yourself......" Zhao Xunba handed over the letter.
"This ......" After Zhao Ning and the three of them saw it, their faces changed greatly and they were shocked.
"It can't be...... the three of them said in horror.
"It can't be true, otherwise the messenger wouldn't have been so quick to explain the situation. How could such a confidential letter be passed on by such a person? Zhao Ning was a little incredulous.
"Brother Zhao, are you wrong, if it weren't for the fact that adults knew the method of decryption, would you be able to understand this letter? I guess the other party didn't expect anyone to unravel the contents of this secret letter at all, so they found someone who was not particularly eye-catching. You know, the more fierce the messenger is that he is not afraid of death, the more it shows the key to the secret letter, so ......"
"I hope it's not possible, but now is not the time to say this, and we have to be prepared for emergency changes."
"It's better for us to go too far now than to regret it later, do it immediately!" Zhao Xun said in a deep voice.
"Subordinates understand ......"
"Wait...... Zhao Hai, you sent a few people to immediately feel Crouching Tiger Mountain to see, how is the situation there? ”
"Yes......"
