In the deep night, people's hearts are slightly cold.

The majestic and vast Chang'an City, which is destined to affect the Chinese history for thousands of years, has never been really quiet, people have come, the water is surging, it is like the fish that is unwilling to be calm, and insists on muddying the lake of this pool.

Many times, the news is like that fart, how to endure it, there will be a moment when it is released.

After holding back for about three days, the news of the fiasco of soldiers and horses from all walks of life in Bingzhou came out one after another, Chang'an was in turmoil, and the princes who were watching from the world were also in a bad mood.

The Xiangguo Mansion, which was magnificently chasing the palace mansion, the carriages and horses were moving, and the generals in armor went in and out one by one, and the subordinates inside and outside the palace seemed to be affected by this tense atmosphere, and their faces were solemn, without the slightest smile.

Li E is an ordinary maid in Xiangguo Mansion, her appearance is not pretty, but she is also upright and ugly, and most of her subordinates are general, it is said that she is also a hard-working person, spending a day and day in Xiangguo Mansion, getting up early and greedy for darkness, serving many sons and ladies in the mansion.

As usual, Li E finished the work arranged by the above early, and after waiting for a while, she returned to the small courtyard where she lived.

There are many sisters in the courtyard, but it is unusually quiet, the rules of the Xiangguo Mansion are strict, and it is strictly forbidden to make noise, this rule, in the minds of ordinary people like Li E, is the golden rule, in the past few years, there are hundreds of small maids who have died inadvertently, and those law enforcement families with stiff faces in the mansion have never shown mercy.

It doesn't matter if you are a close confidant of the eldest lady or the wet nurse of the little son, as long as you violate the rules of the Xiangguo Mansion. There is a price to pay.

Li E has also been in Xiangguofu for more than a year. Naturally, these taboos are carefully circumvented. Even the footsteps of walking were so light that they were almost silent.

Li E walked into the small courtyard, but unlike on weekdays, she walked into the hut where she was sleeping, but kept walking deeper, the deeper she went, the darker the light became along the way, the faint moonlight, and an old well under the dead tree. The cool breeze blows, giving people an unusually gloomy feeling.

Li E stopped at the edge of the old well, looked at the old well stupidly, and a cool breeze came from her ears, and a figure that couldn't see her face and clothes sat strangely on the edge of the well.

This is a very strange picture, the night is thick, even the moonlight does not shine in, the leaves have fallen old dead trees, an ancient well. A figure sitting on the edge of a well without warning.

Such a strange scene, if it were an ordinary woman. Or even some men who are self-confident and fat have to be frightened, and in the thick night, Li E's face did not change at all, but looking at the figure sitting on the edge of the well, a trace of reverence flashed in his eyes.

"The praying mantis has seen the Commander." Li E bowed deeply on her waist and said lightly.

Many people have their own past and unspeakable secrets, her name is clearly called Li E, but she has to call herself the praying mantis, an insect that lives in the childhood memories of modern people, but has almost disappeared.

The figure sitting on the edge of the well couldn't see clearly, and the only thing that stood out in the thick of the night was the shining eyes.

"It's been a long time since I've summoned you, and it's rare that you still remember me as the commander." The figure sitting upright in the dark night said indifferently, the voice was weird, sometimes low, sometimes sharp, a sentence composed of just a dozen words, but it has changed three styles, which is really indistinguishable from men and women.

Li E's waist was a little lower, and she lowered her head and said, "My subordinates don't dare." ”

"I don't think you dare." The man smiled: "Otherwise, you should know the means of the commander of the Dao, and you should know the fate of the Dao's betrayal of the lord." ”

Li E pursed her lips slightly, tilted her body and said, "My subordinates understand." ”

"Good."

The man's tone paused for a moment, and then he said slowly: "In a few days, Chang'an City will be in chaos, and even more so the Xiangguo Mansion, which is the center of the storm, and there is exactly one thing in the mansion that the lord wants to get, so you must take advantage of the chaos and find ways to bring that kind of thing out." ”

When Li E heard this, she didn't ask anything, and bowed her head and said: "My subordinates will definitely go all out, even if they pay for their lives, they will get that thing for the lord." ”

"Good." The man repeated the good again, and suddenly a blank piece of paper shuttled out.

Although Li E looked weak, she was deeply hidden, and her slightly rough palm suddenly poked out, grabbing the white paper that had been told to attack in her hand.

"It's what the lord wants." The man said leisurely.

Li E stared at the drawing paper for a moment, burning it deeply in her heart, the strength in her palm surged, and with an inaudible sound, the drawing paper instantly shattered into powder.

When Li E looked again, the figure sitting on the edge of the well had long since disappeared, coming strangely, and walking even more silently.

Seeing that there was no one around, Li E slowly left, leaving the cool autumn breeze in the thick night more than once.

And the conference hall, which was only less than one or two hundred meters away from the small courtyard where Li E lived, was brightly lit at the moment.

Golden cancan, magnificent and magnificent chasing the Xiangguo Mansion meeting hall of the palace hall, more than a dozen figures sat cross-legged, including Dong Zhuo, who was the leader, all frowned, such a spacious hall, but it seemed a little dull.

Dong Zhuogao sat on his Taishi chair, his brows furrowed, and the few strands of pale hair became more and more prominent under the golden light.

Li Ru sat on his side, on the table, a row of information looked at it neatly, he looked at it over and over again, word by word, and studied it attentively, and after a while, he saw that his brows were soothed, but his face became extremely ugly.

Dong Zhuo, who had been paying attention to the changes in Li Ru's expression, said in a deep voice: "Have you found any clues?" ”

Li Ru nodded, his face was still ugly, and he nodded slightly: "I found out, there was a problem in one of the links, which led to this series of mistakes." ”

Dong Zhuo's eyes were gloomy, and he said in a gloomy voice: "Which link is the problem?" ”

Li Ru took a deep breath, shook his head and said, "Look at it like this, the intelligence source set up in Linrong City should have been removed by Yuan Shang, including the spies planted by Lu Bu's side, which are a bit abnormal. ”

"Lu Bu?"

Dong Zhuo raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "He shouldn't have that guts yet." ”

"This is a possibility"

Li Ru shook his head again and said: "People's hearts are changeable, in the past few years, although Lu Bu has been much more obedient, but it has made the little son-in-law's heart more and more bottomless, this person is not as brave and unscrupulous as it seems on the surface, including killing Ding Yuan and becoming the righteous son of his father-in-law, who can even ignore his reputation, what else can he not do." ”

When Dong Zhuo heard this, his eyes condensed slightly, and after a while, he said a little gloomy: "Get in touch with the spies and fishermen who are planted next to Lu Bu, keep an eye on Lu Bu, and at the more critical moment, you must not capsize in the gutter." ”

"Son-in-law understands."

Li Ru nodded when he heard this, put down the scroll of information in his hand, got up and was about to go out, but saw a figure coming in a hurry.

"Wenyou, wait first." Dong Zhuo called Li Ru.

Li Ru, who had just walked out of the middle of the road, suddenly stopped, turned around and walked back again.

But when he saw Li Meng, who hurriedly walked in, he bowed and said, "Lord, something is wrong. ”

Dong Zhuo on the Taishi chair and Li Ru standing below both suddenly tightened in their hearts, and a breath of uneasiness and irritability floated to their hearts.

"Say, what's wrong?"

Dong Zhuo shouted angrily, and the dozen or so generals sitting on both sides of the lower side were shocked in their hearts, and this angry shout was like a tiger roaring in the mountains and forests, and it shook the eardrums of everyone present.

Li Meng's forehead was full of sweat, and this wolf-toothed real power figure who was nicknamed the two major soul-detaining envoys under Dong Zhuo's command with Wang Fang was very frightened at the moment.

"But there has been a new change in the war in the state." Li Ru on one side frowned tightly and said in a deep voice.

"Yes."

Li Meng's back was already soaked in sweat, and his voice was slightly low: "Shicai, the wolf's tooth ambush agent lurking in Bingzhou has sent news that following the defeat of several generals of Li Guo, Zhang Xiu, Hu Zhen, and Duan Xuan, the confrontation between Wen Hou and General Niu and Yuan Shang was also lost, and they are on their way back to Chang'an." ”

"What." When Dong Zhuo heard this, his fan-like palm slammed into the table in front of him, glared angrily at Li Meng, who was kneeling on the ground below, and said angrily: "You say it again." ”

Being stared at by Dong Zhuo's cold eyes like iron, Li Meng's heart trembled suddenly, but he still opened his mouth and repeated: "Wen Hou and General Niu were defeated and are on the way to retreat to Chang'an."

As soon as Li Meng's words fell, there was a bang on the ground, and the hall was filled with a thick aura of Xiao Killing, and Dong Zhuo, who suddenly stood up, was like a beast that chose people to devour, which made everyone in the hall chill. (To be continued......)
