The official office of the right Xiaowei is located in the imperial city, between the Chengtian Gate and the Suzaku Gate, and consists of eighteen hanging hilltop houses. The other official offices in the imperial city are open to the outside, but the right Xiaowei is different, and a gray-red pointed ridge wall has been built around the house. From the outside, you can only barely see the roof and a few flags, which looks quite mysterious.

This is because the right guard is responsible for guarding the gates on the south side of the imperial city, and a large number of leopard horsemen are stationed all year round. Soldiers, murder weapons, so it is necessary to use a wall to block the evil qi, so as not to affect the peaceful atmosphere of the imperial city.

Tan Qi stood beside the fence in front of the right guard, maintaining an elegant posture. She wore a hood with a thin silk hanging down from the brim, obscuring her expression. Yao Runeng on the side was very anxious, turning his neck from time to time, looking in a direction outside the imperial city.

They had been waiting here for a long time, but they had not yet entered, as if they were still waiting for something.

At this time, the sun is setting, and in another hour, the most lively Shangyuan Lantern Festival in Chang'an will start to hold candles. Most of the people from the official offices in the imperial city have already left, and occasionally a few of them are on duty late, but they are also in a hurry, for fear of delaying the play. These two people stood idly on the royal road, looking very abrupt.

Suddenly, there was a drum beat in the distance. Yao Runeng hurriedly cheered up and took advantage of the sunset to look at the flag. This time the flag was not long, and only one word came. Yao Runeng's face was heavy, and he turned to Tan Qi and said, "B!" ”

The hood shook slightly. This word means that Childe's efforts in Leyouyuan have failed, and an alternative plan B must be activated.

Tan Qi silently checked all the details, took a deep breath, and his heart was still beating hard. It's a bold, dangerous, and end-to-do plan that will only be done when you're completely cornered. As long as one step is not careful, everyone will be doomed. However, she did not regret it, because this was Childe's request.

If Childe is dedicated to being the prince, then she is only dedicated to Childe. She was willing to do anything for him, including dying.

"Tanqi girl, do it as planned?" Yao Runeng asked.

"If you think about it, is there really nothing missing?" Tan Qi is not very reassured. This plan was approved by Li Mi, but the specific plan was Yao Runeng. For this stunned Qing, Tan Qi is not as confident as he is in Gongzi.

Yao Runeng patted his chest and said that he didn't have to worry.

"Okay, let's go." Tan Qi was uneasy under strong pressure, and accompanied by Yao Runeng, he walked into the heavy door of the right guard.

The guard, unaware of the visitors, slanted over the halberd warily. Yao Runeng took a step forward, and the waist card in his hand was raised: "We are here to do business in Weili." "It's going to be a step forward. The guard hurriedly blocked it with a halberd: "This department is very important, and those who do not hand over the fish bag are not allowed to enter, and I ask for forgiveness." "The waist card is shining silver, and the guards don't know the details, so they speak very politely.

Yao Runeng said: "We have made an appointment with Zhao Senjun, and we have important matters to discuss." ”

"What is your name?"

"Ju Pingkang."

The guard turned around and looked through the string of bamboo pieces hanging under the corridor, looked for it, and replied, "There is no distinguished guest here." Yao Runeng looked confused: "No, Zhao Senjun has obviously made an appointment with us, you can look for it again?" The guard patiently flipped through again, but still no.

Yao Runeng's face sank: "For such an important matter, why didn't you even prepare your family registration in advance?" How do you do it! The guard was a little nervous: "This place is only responsible for the guard, and it is Cangcao's person who changes his door name every day." Yao Runeng said angrily: "I don't care what toss you have inside the right Xiaowei, don't delay our time!" "After that, I'm going to push in.

Several guards suddenly became nervous, the halberd of the halberd, the sword of the sword. Tan Qi suddenly said, "Don't mess around." Only then did Yao Runeng stop his steps, retreat outside the heavy gate, and threw over a famous thorn: "Okay, okay, let's not go in, you call Zhao out of the army." ”

The guards secretly breathed a sigh of relief, they didn't want to carry Cangcao's black cauldron. It's good that the other party is willing to let go, hurry up and pass the words in, don't cause trouble for yourself. So he picked up the famous thorn, ran in to return, and after a while, a chubby green-shirted official hurried out.

The official looked inexplicable, and he didn't know where to come with such two guests. However, when he arrived at the heavy door, he hurriedly sang a song with a polite attitude.

The young guard in front of him was just that, and the woman behind him was wearing a tulle hat and a wide black brocade robe. Although it is a bit strange to wear such a thick brocade robe in the current weather, this outfit is worth a lot of money.

Zhao Senjun thought very clearly, those who are qualified to enter this imperial city are either rich or expensive; Those who dare to stand at the door of the right Xiaowei and name the people who want to join the army to welcome them are even more hand-eyed. He is just an eight-grade official, but he can't easily offend the powerful.

"The lanterns are coming, what are the two of you doing here?"

Tan Qi did not remove the hat, but directly handed over a piece of jade pendant. Zhao Senjun was stunned at first, and hurriedly caught it. This jade pendant is the size of a palm and is carved in the shape of a cluster of plum flowers. The plum flower is white, the white jade is clear, and the combination of the two is natural, which is simply ingenious.

The jade quality is high, and what is even more rare is this craftsmanship. Zhao Senjun held this Li Huayu pendant and was at a loss for a while. Tan Qi said: "Zhao Qilang, my master wants to pick up someone." ”

Zhao Shenjun listened to this young woman, and actually called out his ranking, and then looked down at the piece of Li Huayu pendant and the famous thorn of "Ju Pingkang", and his eyes suddenly became excited: "Honorable driver...... Could it be from Pingkang Fong? The tulle on the hood trembled, but there was no sound. Zhao joined the army when he arrived, returned the jade pendant, and then respectfully welcomed the two into the office.

The guard was about to hand over the door book for registration, when Zhao Senjun waved his hand and drove him away.

They walked down a long corridor to a quiet room for guests. Zhao Shenjun closed the door, and then turned around and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that the lower official can also enter the eyes of the master." ”

"Hehe, the master said that there are bones in Zhao Qilang's "Tang Tang Collection", but it is a pity that it is not obvious."

Zhao Senjun's face was full of joy, he used to be elegant and published a collection of poems, but it was only sent between relatives and friends, but I didn't expect that one to read it. He was flattered and hurriedly shook his spirits: "I don't know ...... right phase"

"Huh?"

Tan Qi behind the tulle let out a sound of dissatisfaction, and Zhao Shenjun hurriedly changed his words: "Respect the Lord, respect the Lord." I don't know who the Lord wants to take when he sends your envoy here? Tan Qi said: "Zhang Xiaojing." Zhao was stunned, and Yao Runeng added: "It's the person you arrested half an hour ago." ”

Zhao Senjun heard about the chaos in Xishi, and he also knew that he had captured a person. But he didn't expect that even the right minister was shocked by this matter.

"This, but the imperial court is going to commit it......" Although Zhao Senjun didn't understand the complicated situation behind this, he at least knew that this person had a lot to do. Tan Qi said: "This person's name is Zhang Xiaojing, and it was originally arranged by my master and your right Xiaowei. Otherwise, how could he not even leave his name on the notice document of Jing'an Division? ”

Her tone was calm, plain but with a hint of reserve and pride in the high-ranking mansion.

When Zhao Senjun heard this, he thought for a moment, and gently slapped his left palm with his right hand, and his expression suddenly changed: "It turns out ...... And so it was! Tan Qi and Yao Runeng were relieved at the same time: "It's done." ”

This plan B is to let Tan Qi pretend to be Li Linfu's domestic maid and mix in with the right Xiaowei to pick up Zhang Xiaojing. The core of the whole plan is the document sent by Right Xiaowei to Jing'an Division.

The arrest of Zhang Xiaojing was done by Li Linfu secretly instructing You Xiaowei, so the document only said words such as "detain relevant people and conduct a thorough investigation", and did not write his name. In this way, Li Xiang can take people away without a trace, Jing Ansi wants to come to the door to ask for it, and You Xiaowei can prevaricate by changing another person casually - we only detained the relevant people, etc., but we never said that the one you were looking for was detained.

Li Mi is well versed in these wordplay on the paperwork, so he tries to use it in turn. Since you can only secretly mention people and don't want to make a noise, I will take the first step and pretend to be you to rob people.

That piece of jade pendant was actually a gift from Li Heng to Li Mi. Li Hua means the surname Li of the clan. It just so happens that these three people are all surnamed Li, and they are used to pass off as Li Linfu's tokens, and there are no flaws, so they really have to hide from the world.

Therefore, as soon as Tan Qi revealed the pseudonyms of Li Huayupei and "Ju Pingkang", Zhao joined the army and thought that the person who came was sent by Li Xiang. Coupled with the fact that the other party told the details of Jing'an's paperwork, Zhao Senjun was even more worried about him, and immediately "figured it out": Oh, it turns out that Li Xiang and Benwei have a secret cooperation, and this is to mention someone.

This series of hints seems to be a fluke, but it is actually the result of Jing'an's "big case" painstaking efforts.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Tan Qi urged: "Seeing that the lantern will be coming, please join the army and take us to raise people as soon as possible." As soon as Zhao Senjun thought of being able to have a relationship with Li Xiang, his body and bones were floating, and he hurriedly agreed.

Zhao Senjun took the two of them to the depths of the Health Department. Here, the corridor, the inner room, the hall and the library are interlocked, extending in all directions, if no one takes it, you will definitely get lost. Walking around a corner, a group of sergeants came in front of you. Zhao Shenjun suddenly stopped and said "hey" softly. Tan Qi and Yao Runeng's heartbeats missed half a beat, thinking that something was wrong. Yao Runeng reached his hand to his waist, where an iron ruler was hidden.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Senjun flattered and said: "Go further, the road is dark and low, I am afraid that your envoy's hat will hinder you, please be more careful." Tan Qi breathed a sigh of relief, separated by a layer of tulle, it was indeed inconvenient to walk in such a narrow passage. She lifted the veil off her hat, revealing a stunning face.

Zhao Senjun was surprised by her appearance, and didn't dare to look at it more, so he quickly turned around. Legend has it that Li Xiang indulged in lust, Ji served Yingfang, and even such a domestic slave was so beautiful. He had the stereotype in his heart that the person who came was Li Xiang's envoy, and he would associate any details with him, and he became more and more sure.

They walked to a small courtyard before stopping. It is said to be a courtyard, but it is actually similar to the interior, and it is surrounded by wide eaves near the big house, which makes it look cramped and dim. At the end of the courtyard were two hoop iron gates, and five or six guards stood at the entrance to the courtyard.

According to Zhao Shenjun, the right Xiaowei itself does not have a special prison. Behind the iron gate was a storehouse, which was usually stored, but at this time guards were arranged, apparently temporarily used as a prison cell to detain important prisoners.

Zhao Senjun walked over first, muttered a few words to the guards through the fence, and looked back at this side from time to time.

Yao Runeng noticed that Tan Qi's cuffs trembled slightly, and let a weak woman come to rob the prison, after all, it was still too reluctant. In the end, this plan is rushed and rushed, and there are still many uncertainties in the middle, and it depends on a little luck.

"It doesn't matter if it's found. It's a big deal to go in directly and snatch Zhang Duwei out. Yao Runeng looked ahead, holding an iron ruler in his hand, and his tone was a little more fierce in his tone.

In order to get rid of the tension, Tan Qi lowered his voice and asked, "Why are you so concerned about that disciple?" ”

Tan Qi didn't have a good impression of Zhang Xiaojing, and she came here purely because of her son, so she didn't quite understand why Yao Runeng took the initiative to ask Ying to take this risk. Yao Runeng said: "He is a hero, he should not be treated like this." It is against the law to rob prisons, but it is the right thing to do. ”

"Is he really thinking about the people of the city? Not planning to escape? Tan Qi asked curiously.

Yao Runeng frowned as if he was insulted: "If Zhang Duwei wants to get rid of it, no one in Chang'an City can stop him." ”

Tan Qi sighed: "Childe is too, the first time I met him, I dared to entrust him with a heavy responsibility." I really don't understand, it's a thug who killed your boss, why do you trust it so much? Yao Runeng has always been very curious about Zhang Xiaojing's charges, and when he heard this, he hurriedly asked: "The girl knows why he was imprisoned?" ”

"Childe mentioned it slightly, saying that he killed his boss."

Yao Runeng was shocked, Zhang Xiaojing's boss was a county lieutenant, and he was an official from the eighth grade, and it was no wonder that it was a capital crime. He asked why he killed his boss, and Tan Qi shook his head and said he didn't know. Yao Runeng was very strange. According to his observations, Zhang Xiaojing is a person with deep thoughts, not like that kind of impulsive personality - take 10,000 steps back, even if Zhang Xiaojing has the intention to kill the county lieutenant, with his means, how can he be arrested?

"No, it won't be that simple, there must be something else behind this." Yao Runeng shook his head.

"Hmph, he's a boring disciple, what can he do?" Tan Qi has always hated his presumptuous eyes when he looked at him.

At this moment, Zhao joined the army and came back, and the two hurriedly raised their voices. Zhao Senjun looked helpless: "This matter is a bit difficult to do." Tan Qi frowned: "What's the matter?" ”

Zhao Shenjun said: "If it is an ordinary person, I will be the master." But this person was personally ordered to be detained by General Gan, and he also used a big seal, and according to the rules, he had to sign and approve it...... This matter, the lord should have explained to the noble envoy, right? At this, there was a hint of doubt in his eyes.

It is said that when Li Xiang sent an envoy to raise people, he should first communicate with General Gan and ask him to issue a document or token. These two only have a piece of plum flower white jade with unknown meaning, so Zhao Senjun was a little suspicious.

Tan Qi reacted very quickly, raised his chin, and put on a displeased face: "This matter involves the secrets of the imperial court, and the master does not want to make a noise." Did you fall into the signing document because I was afraid that no one in the world would know about it? ”

This big hat was buttoned down, and Zhao Senjun was frightened: "How dare you, how dare you, but the right Xiaowei is practicing military law, and he has no right to mention people." Seeing Tan Qi's unhappy face, his eyes rolled: "The general is patrolling the city outside now, why don't you two give me your master's token, and I will send a fast-legged cronie out, and within half an hour, I will definitely be able to ask for a sign from him." ”

Zhao Senjun said this, which was both a slowdown and a temptation. If it was a real envoy of Li Xiang, he should not be afraid to confront the general.

Tan Qi dared to go to the general, and hurriedly raised his voice: "My master wants this person to be in urgent need, and he can't delay for a moment." If you miss a big thing, are you willing to take this responsibility? She deliberately didn't say anything about Right Xiaowei, just stared at Zhao Shenjun, and put all the pressure on him.

Zhao Sanjun sweated like rain, but he refused to let go.

The situation froze suddenly, and Tan Qi's heart began to burn. She has always maintained a high-pressure posture, because she was afraid that Zhao would see the flaws when she came back to her senses. Seeing that the situation was slipping in the worst direction, Tan Qi quietly pinched his hand with his fingernails, calming down the severe pain, and then said: "Okay, you take us in to have a look, the master has a few words to ask him." ”

It was the best of both worlds, not violating military orders, but also giving an account to the envoys. Zhao Senjun didn't have the authority to bring people out, but it was still okay to bring people in to see. So he breathed a sigh of relief, explained a few words to the guard, and opened the door of the storeroom.

Tan Qi coughed lightly before entering. Yao Runeng glanced at her and saw her raise her right hand, pull out a handkerchief from between the armbands of her left arm, and wipe the side of her mouth. This bland action made Yao Runeng's movements stiffen slightly, and then his eyes became sharp.

This action means that Plan B cannot be used either, and Plan C must be adopted - this plan is not from the hands of Li Mi or Yao Runeng, but Tan Qi himself.

The three of them followed the guards into the storeroom, where they first smelled the musty smell of stale straw. The room was dim and the light was barely visible. There were a large pile of bamboo mats and armor pieces scattered on the ground, and a few dilapidated boxes rested in the corners, and seven or eight wooden binding frames were lined up in the corners of the walls.

Several interlaced aconitum chains, firmly binding a person to one of the wooden shelves, it was Zhang Xiaojing.

Zhang Xiaojing still looked like when he climbed out of the canal, his hair was wet and loose, and there were still water marks and scorch marks on his clothes. It seems that after the right Xiaowei arrested him, he didn't care about torture. He raised his head when he heard footsteps, and found that the people who came were actually Tan Qi and Yao Runeng, and his one-eyed light flashed.

"Oh, that's the man." Zhao Senjun said.

Tan Qi said: "I want to ask him a few words on behalf of the master, I don't know if it's convenient?" Zhao Senjun understood, and immediately ordered the guards to go out, and he was going to leave himself, but Tan Qi said: "Zhao Senjun is his own person, so he doesn't have to avoid it." His heart rejoiced at this, and he bolted the door from the inside.

As soon as the cell door closed, the room immediately became darker. This was originally a storeroom, with only a small ventilation window, and there was no observation hole in the door, so as long as the door was closed, even the guards outside could not see the movement inside.

Zhao Senjun thought it was too dark here, and leaned over to touch the candlestick next to him. Yao Runeng leaned over and said I'll make a fire. Zhao Senjun didn't think much about it, and handed over the candlestick. Unexpectedly, Yao Runeng didn't touch the fire sickle, but pulled out an iron ruler and struck him the back of the head.

Zhao Senjun snorted and fell to the ground. The candlestick was caught by Yao Runeng with one hand and did not make any sound.

Yao Runeng stuffed Zhao Senjun with a hemp core in his mouth, and then put his ear to the door to listen cautiously to the movement outside. It took a while for him to make a gesture to indicate that the guards were not alarmed.

Tan Qi walked a few steps quickly in front of Zhang Xiaojing, and said in a low voice: "Childe asked me to save you." Zhang Xiaojing grinned and said, "I know he will definitely come to save me, but it's not time to hide the bow and cook the dog." ”

Tan Qi ignored his sarcasm and began to unbutton his robe on his chest. Zhang Xiaojing was stunned: "What does this mean?" Want to leave me a seed? Tan Qi's face turned red, and he whispered hatefully to him: "Dengzi!" A dog's mouth can't spit out ivory! He stomped his foot and turned around and went to the corner.

Yao Runeng hurriedly walked over: "Zhang Duwei, you are too abrupt, and the Tanqi girl also took a big risk to get in." While complaining, he took out a sweat towel and wrapped it in the joint of the iron chain, and quietly untied Zhang Xiaojing from the binding frame.

Zhang Xiaojing moved his wrists and neck, and he was quite emotional in his heart. You must know that trespassing on the internal guards of the imperial city and robbing prisoners is a shocking case in normal times.

In order to save him, Li Mi would actually do this?

But Zhang Xiaojing didn't feel much gratitude. The young Lord Si Cheng did this out of morality, but he was afraid that the situation had changed again, and he urgently needed Zhang Xiaojing's help.

But the most important thing is how to get out.

The two chicks obviously pretended to be someone and got in, but the key was how they planned to get themselves out of the right guard.

Zhang Xiaojing turned his head and saw that Tan Qi had already taken off his brocade robe and rested on the top of the box next to him, removing the tulle around the hat. That frivolous sentence really made her angry, so Zhang Xiaojing didn't come over and waited patiently in place.

Tan Qi angrily disposed of the hat, and then threw it to Zhang Xiaojing with the brocade robe, and said coldly: "Put it on." Zhang Xiaojing touched the hat and found that there was a thick gauze inside. It is the same color as the original tulle, but the count is more dense. Wearing this, as long as the veil is hung down, the people outside can't see the face clearly.

Zhang Xiaojing immediately understood their plan.

He was about the same size as Tan Qi, put on a brocade robe and a hat, and swaggered away, and outsiders couldn't imagine that the person in the robe had already been transferred.

Zhang Xiaojing pinched the brim of his hat and squinted at Tan Qi: "What a plan for Li Daitao." But in this way, wouldn't I leave you alone in this tiger's den? "The most important point of this plan is that Tan Qi must replace Zhang Xiaojing to stay. Because the number of people leaving the cell must be matched, the guards will not be suspicious.

Tan Qi didn't look at him: "You don't need to worry about this, Gongzi will come to save me." ”

Zhang Xiaojing shook his head and reached out to put the hat back on the head of the sandalwood chess. This presumptuous action startled Tan Qi and almost shouted. She subconsciously wanted to hide, but Zhang Xiaojing grabbed her arm and grinned: "No, this plan is not to my taste." ”

Tan Qi was a little annoyed and wanted to shake off his hand, but that hand was like a tong, so she couldn't break free at all. She could only lower her voice and roar in a breathless voice: "Do you want Childe's efforts to be in vain? ”

"No, it's just that I'm not used to letting women die for me." Zhang Xiaojing looked serious.

Tan Qi gave up the struggle and glared at Zhang Xiaojing unwillingly: "What a gentleman, then how are you going to leave?" Zhang Xiaojing raised his finger and shook it, and smiled: "It just so happens that I have a way to let everyone leave safely." ”

The guards outside the cell chatted with each other, envious of their colleagues who had the opportunity to attend the first-day lantern festival. However, the Shangyuan Lantern Festival will last for three days, and after today's shift, you will be able to go out tomorrow to have a good time. The guards were chatting about the excitement, when suddenly a person shrugged his nose: "Where are you cooking?" The smoke is coming here. ”

Soon everyone around smelled it, and everyone looked down at the smell, and they saw that smoke was pouring out of the gap between the doors of the cell. They hurriedly knocked on the door to find out what was going on inside.

But the door was bolted from the inside by Zhao Senjun's own hands, and it couldn't be opened from the outside unless there was a collision with the wood. Seeing that the fireworks were getting thicker and thicker, and even faintly visible flames, the guards were in a hurry. The houses of the right Xiaowei are very densely located, and they are all wooden buildings, as long as there is a little open fire, it may spread.

There was chaos in front of the cell, some people said to hurry up and carry water, some people said that they should find a way to open the door, and some said that it was better to report to Shangfeng first, and then someone yelled at Shangfeng that Shangfeng was not inside! Everyone is overwhelmed.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for the door to be slammed open from the inside. First, a cloud of smoke poured out, and then Zhao Shenjun and the other three people ran out in disgrace, embarrassed...... Wait a minute! Three? The guards took a closer look, and the prisoner was actually among them, with chains tied up all over his body, and he was led behind him by Zhao Senjun. It's just that the black smoke is filled, and I can't see the details clearly.

As soon as Zhao Senjun came out, he shouted angrily: "The candle inside has ignited the straw, quickly call someone to put out the fire, don't let the fire spread!" He was the highest-ranking person present, and as soon as he spoke, the guards immediately stabilized the morale of the soldiers. Zhao Senjun pulled the prisoner and shouted as he walked out: "I will move this important person to a safe place first, you should quickly sound the gong to warn!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the fire in the cell suddenly lit up. The raging fire rushed to the wings on both sides. The guards did not expect the fire to be so ferocious, and they looked around for weapons to extinguish the fire. Many people are praising the wisdom of joining the army in their hearts, and getting the prisoners out in time, if they are really burned inside, the people who guard the door will be unlucky.

Soon the gong sounded, and a wave of soldiers ran inside, their steps chaotic. And the fire became more and more ferocious, and the gray smoke spread everywhere, and everyone covered their mouths and noses, coughing and bowing their heads. Zhao Shenjun and his entourage walked out against the flow of people, and no one paid attention to them at all.

Zhao Senjun walked in front, his face stiff and iron-blue. Although the prisoner was wearing chains, his right hand was not restrained, and he was holding something tightly, and he never left Zhao Senjun's vest. Tan Qi and Yao Runeng followed closely behind, shocked and admired in their hearts.

They never expected that Zhang Xiaojing would actually light the entire cell with a fire.

The two of them thought about how to hide their bodies and act in a low-key manner; But Zhang Xiaojing is the opposite, his body can't be hidden, it doesn't matter, he makes a bigger thing to divert his attention.

This method is simple and crude, but it is clever with force. Not to mention Tan Qi and Yao Runeng, even Li Yu didn't have such ruthless courage, in order to save one person, he actually burned the entire Right Xiaowei.

"It's just such a fuss, I'm afraid that Childe's next troubles will be more."

Tan Qi sighed secretly, but he didn't have much resentment towards the guy in front of him. After all, he chose this way in order not to sacrifice himself. What kind of person is this disciple? Tan Qi raised his eyes to look at Zhang Xiaojing, but his back was blurred under the black smoke.

Soon the group returned to Zhao Senjun's room. Entering the door, Zhao Senjun sat on the blanket, his face was pale. Zhang Xiaojing shook off the chains on his body and said with a smile: "Your Excellency has cooperated well. Next, you have to help me find a dress. Zhao Senjun knew that it was useless to say more, so he got up in silence and opened the cabinet, and turned out a spare set of eight-grade regular clothes.

Zhang Xiaojing did not avoid people, changed his clothes in a hurry, and was about to go out. Zhao Senjun suddenly stopped him: "You're just leaving?" The three of them turned back, not knowing what he meant. Zhao Senjun tilted his head and pointed at his neck: "Okay, okay, let's come here, I can take less responsibility." Zhang Xiaojing laughed: "It's like obeying orders." Then he stood up and struck it hard, and Zhao Shenjun fainted contentedly.

The three of them didn't dare to linger longer, and after leaving the room, they went straight outside. At this time, the fire was getting bigger and bigger, and the entire left-behind personnel of the right guard were alarmed, and people could be heard everywhere shouting "Go to the water!" Flow! ”。 In this chaos, no one paid any attention to these people. They swaggered down the hallway, all the way to the heavy gate.

As long as you pass the heavy gate, you can be regarded as escaping from life. Yao Runeng and Tan Qi couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief, the time just now was not long, but it was too painful, they couldn't wait to take a breather.

At that moment, a man in armor ran up from the other end of the hallway, probably in a hurry to put out the fire. The corridor of the right guard is narrow, and only two people can walk side by side. The three of them had to turn sideways in advance to avoid it. The light was dim, and he couldn't see the other party's face clearly, and when Yao Runeng turned around, he accidentally caught a glimpse of two white silks next to the man's shoulder armor, and hurriedly wanted to warn the other two, but it was too late.

When the man and Zhang Xiaojing's bodies were staggered, they happened to look at each other, and both of them were stunned for a moment.

It's a Choi tool.

That's a good thing. After Cui Qi grabbed Zhang Xiaojing and brought the right Xiaowei, he never left. He knew that he would definitely not be able to stay in Jing'an Division, and he was anxious to talk to the commander of the Right Xiaowei about the placement and treatment. But several of the chiefs were out, and he had to wait in the room anxiously. The gong sounded just now, and he felt that he couldn't sit dry, so he wanted to come out and show it, but he didn't expect to meet an acquaintance when he went out.

Although Cui Qi was cowardly, his reaction was first-class, and he understood what was happening at the first time. Without hesitation, he took three steps back, and while drawing his knife, he pulled up his throat and shouted: "Felons escape!" ”

Zhang Xiaojing's reaction was not slow, he jumped forward and directly used his elbow to slam Cui Qi's lower abdomen. Between the lightning and the fire, the two of them made a few moves. They all played in the army, they were fierce and direct, and they were quite strong for a while. It's a pity that Zhang Xiaojing can suppress Cui Qi's movements, but he has no time to seal his mouth.

Cui Qi never thought that he would quickly knock out Zhang Xiaojing, and he only needed to delay time. He shouted as he fought, and after a while, the guards of the heavy gate were alarmed and rushed towards him. There are more than a dozen people in this team, all of them are fully armed, and even Zhang Xiaojing can't solve it with three heads and six arms.

Yao Runeng and Tan Qi closed their eyes in pain, seeing that they had overcome many difficulties, but they actually broke at the last step, which was really a failure.

Cui Qi felt that the other party was about to be restrained, and his movements slowed down. He suddenly noticed that Zhang Xiaojing's lips actually showed a cruel smile, and he knew that it was not good. As soon as this guy shows such a smile, something must happen. Cui Qi hurriedly retreated to prevent him from breaking out.

Who knew that Zhang Xiaojing didn't chase at all, but stood in place and shouted in a louder voice: "The brigade army robbed the prison!" ”

Cui Qi's face changed with a "swish". He was wearing a brigade armor, and Zhang Xiaojing was wearing the regular clothes of the right guard, and those right guards didn't have to think about who they would help at first.

Cui Qi hurriedly turned around and wanted to explain, but the whole thing was too complicated and he couldn't explain it in two or three sentences. Those soldiers didn't care about this, and three or four people came up and held down Cui Qi. Zhang Xiaojing and the three of them took the opportunity to cross them and ran towards the heavy gate.

Cui Qi didn't dare to resist, so he could only repeatedly shout that the person was impersonating. Finally, a soldier heard that something was wrong and wanted to stop Zhang Xiaojing to ask what was going on, but Zhang Xiaojing raised his right hand, and a large piece of white lime powder flew all over the sky, and several soldiers nearby covered their eyes in pain and squatted down.

This is the lime powder scraped off the corner of the warehouse, Zhang Xiaojing got a bag in his arms before leaving, and it really came in handy. Yao Runeng stood aside and watched, feeling that Zhang Xiaojing was simply a demon, and whenever he was in a desperate situation, he could always break through from an unbelievable angle. He even suspected that even if he didn't have to venture in with Tan Qi, this guy would have a way to escape.

Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, the three of them broke through the encirclement and ran wildly. Tan Qi ran at the front, she felt like she had never run so hard, and her lungs almost exploded. The heavy door in front of him was already in sight, and the bow hanging from the door could be seen clearly.

It's only a dozen paces away, and there is no hindrance. She mustered all her strength, and was the first to rush out of the heavy door, but the next moment, she froze in place. Yao Runeng and Zhang Xiaojing couldn't stop and almost hit her back.

The two of them didn't ask her why she stopped suddenly, because they already had the answer.

Outside the Health Department, dozens of leopard riders galloped in, and the black pressure swept like a dark cloud, and the dense and low sound of horses' hooves knocked on the ground. The moment the three of them rushed out of the heavy gate, the leopard rider also happened to rush over. These well-trained cavalrymen quickly reined in the reins and formed a semicircle around the heavy gate. Horses' legs, long knives high, and the sound of tightening bowstrings came from the back row.

The three of them stood with their backs to the heavy door, not knowing what to do. Even if Zhang Xiaojing is the reincarnation of the Heavenly King, there is nothing he can do in the face of this kind of lineup.

Tan Qi trembled, and his legs could barely stand. She is not afraid of sacrifice, but dying in the closest place to success is beyond her means. Zhang Xiaojing stretched out a hand and pressed it on her shoulder. This time Tan Qi did not dodge, his palm was very hot, and the heat kept penetrating Tan Qi's body, melting away the fear little by little.

"Just now in the cell, I spoke abruptly, and asked the girl to forgive me." At the moment of the great enemy, Zhang Xiaojing said such an inconsequential thing.

chose such an opportunity to apologize, Tan Qi didn't know whether to forgive him for a while, or scolded back.

Behind them, Cui Qi and the guards rushed out of the health office in a rage, and they were overjoyed to see that the leopard rider had blocked Zhang Xiaojing at the door. What he fears most is that this dangerous guy will be free. Now that the leopard riders are gathered, it means that the general is in person, and that guy will definitely not be able to escape. He held a pair of shackles, wondering how to hold Zhang Xiaojing firmly down, but after thinking about it, would this steal the limelight from the general? He hesitated to put the shackles down and see what the situation was.

At this moment, the cavalry in the middle of the semicircle parted the two sides, and a tall and imposing general slowly rode over, holding the reins in one hand and the whip in the other, and walked unhurriedly until he came to the heavy gate before stopping. Yao Ru could recognize that this was Gan Shoucheng, the general of the Right Xiaowei.

Gan Shoucheng's mount was a divine horse from the Western Regions, and he condescendingly looked down at the prey in the three urns, and did not immediately order an arrest. He played with the whip in his hand, his eyes swept from the faces of these men to the top of his feet, and then to the heavy door, and his eyes suddenly revealed a trace of regret - the kind of regret that made the prey run away in a split second before the bow was fired.

The black smoke behind the Department of Health became thicker and thicker, but Gan Shoucheng immediately fell into deep thought.

There was a brief silence in front of the heavy gate, no one knew what the general who had burned the guard department would do with these murderers, everyone was waiting. Finally, Gan Shoucheng slowly raised his right hand, his face expressionless. The leopard riders knew that the general was about to give orders, and the horses' hooves were agitated.

Gan Shoucheng's hand did not swing down forcefully, but quickly fanned to the sides. It was an unmistakable command: give way. The cavalry was puzzled, but the order was like a mountain, and they immediately gave way to an outward passage.

Whether it was Zhang Xiaojing and the other three or Cui Qi, they didn't know what medicine was sold in the general's gourd. However, Gan Shoucheng had no intention of explaining, he repeated the gesture again, and then turned his gaze to a direction outside the imperial city, and snorted coldly.

Yao Runeng was the first to react, it was the closest watchtower to the Imperial City in Jing'an Division.

Zhang Xiaojing, who had just woken up from a dream, picked up the limp Tanqi and left along the passage with Yao Runeng. The cavalry on both sides were eyeing each other, and as soon as the commander gave the order, they would tear the three murderers to pieces. It's a pity that until they were completely out of sight, the general didn't say anything.

Cui Qi couldn't believe his eyes, he waved his arms, thinking that the general's order had been wrong. But no matter how he urged, the soldiers of the right guard were indifferent. Cui Qi sat on the ground with his buttocks, his face like ashes. He has been making bad decisions since this morning, and it continues to this day.

Gan Shoucheng's gaze lingered on the poor creature for a moment, and he gave a faint order. Cui Qi was stunned for a moment, and an indescribable expression of joy or shock appeared on his face.

Wang Yunxiu felt that this day was simply terrible.

She gets into a car accident, then she is held hostage and run around, and a vicious guy tries to kill herself. Now she was thrown like garbage in this filthy firewood room, her hands were tied, and a hemp kernel was rudely stuffed into her mouth.

Wang Yunxiu has cursed countless times in her heart, who are the worm dogs that are killed by God these days? Don't they know that I am the daughter of Wang Zhonghe?

Unfortunately, it looks like they really don't know. No one came to the firewood room, and she couldn't shout, so she could only lie on the ground alone. The floor was very cold, Wang Yunxiu's body was soon shivering from the cold, her delicate wrists were sharpened by the rope, and the sequelae of the car accident made her head dizzy. She had never suffered such a grievance, and after struggling for a while, exhausted, she turned to cry silently, and soon the tears dried up, and she had to look at the beams of the house with a blank face, hoping that the nightmare would soon wake up.

Just when Wang Yunxiu felt that he had run out of oil and the lamp was dry, the door panel rang, and someone walked into the firewood room.

She barely raised her head, and in front of her was an unfamiliar square face, with a large forehead, a white face and a short beard, and she was wearing an official-like green robe. Wang Yunxiu remembers that in her own home, she often saw people dressed like this coming, and everyone was respectful to her father.

Such an inferior person dares to be rude to me? A cloud of anger accumulated in Wang Yunxiu's chest. She decided that the guy in front of her was the initiator, and she wanted to scold angrily, but the hemp core was firmly blocked in her mouth, and countless words turned into whining noises.

The man didn't come closer, just stared at Wang Yunxiu for a while, and then made a strange move - turned around and closed the door. Wang Yunxiu sighed in his heart, what did he want to do?

Yuan Jae closed the door, turned around, and once again focused his gaze on the woman in front of him, his mind racing.

He had a natural instinct for luxury, and as soon as he entered the door, he noticed that the woman had a twisted silver on her cheek. The material of the flower is not precious, but it can twist the fine silver out of the texture of kingfisher feathers, and this craft is at least worth dozens of fine silk cloth; And the phoenix tail nanmu hairpin on her head, although the shape is simple, but the wood texture is like a golden silk thread, symmetrical and compact, at a glance you know that it is a high-grade golden silk nanmu.

These two things fall into the eyes of ordinary people, maybe they are just the word "valuable". But in the eyes of an insider like Yuan Zai, he can taste the bearing of the top grade from the details.

It is possible for the daughter of an incense shop owner to wear gold and silver, but it is impossible to have such jewelry.

Yuan Zai leaned over, stretched out his right thumb and index finger, said "confession", gently opened Wang Yunxiu's lips, and gently took out the hemp core. In the next moment, an angry voice rolled out of her throat:

"Dog kills! I'll tell my dad to cut off all your dogs' heads!" ”

"Sure enough, ......" Yuan Zai secretly said in his heart, where is this kind of commanding tone raised by ordinary people. He asked unhurriedly, "Dare to ask Ling Zun's name?" ”

Wang Yunxiu sneered: "General Yunlu's name, your ears are also worthy of listening?" ”

Hearing this, Yuan Jae gasped. General Yunlu is the highest rank below the four generals in the military rank. In the entire Chang'an, no, there are no more than twenty people in the entire Tang Dynasty who can have this title, and all of them are either important ministers or dignitaries.

Feng Dalun's subordinates must have caught the wrong person. Not only did he catch the wrong one, but he also caught a hot potato. It is estimated that Feng Dalun himself has not checked it, otherwise he should have discovered this fatal mistake a long time ago.

General Yunlu's family also dared to kidnap him, and the ten Bear Fire Gang were not enough to die!

Yuan Zai couldn't help but have some resentment towards Feng Dalun. He made a big mistake, how can he involve me too! The woman had already decided that she was in cahoots with the Bearfire Gang. Judging by her temper, she doesn't listen to explanations very well, and once she puts it back, I'm afraid that she will retaliate madly - I didn't do anything! What a disaster!

Fortunately, Yuan Zai made a decision just now, and as soon as he found out that his identity was suspicious, he closed the door first, leaving a trace of room to turn around.

According to common sense, Yuan Zai should quickly tell Feng Dalun and ask him to release him immediately and apologize...... But Wonjae realized that this was not good for himself. His mind was rapidly calculating, how to get out of this sinister situation, and even said, is it possible to squeeze some benefits out of his backhand?

Yuan Zai came from a humble background, and he firmly believed in a proverb: "Fame and fame will be shown after suffering, and wealth and wealth will be sought in danger." "The more dangerous the situation, the more wealth there is, it all depends on whether you have the courage to fight. He relied on his extreme sensitivity and persistence to opportunities to get to where he is today.

These thoughts are long, but in fact, they only turned in Yuan Zai's mind for a moment. He thought about it, leaned over to Wang Yunxiu's face sank, and shouted in a low voice: "Shut up!" ”

Wang Yunxiu couldn't help but be stunned. Growing up, no one dared to speak to her like that. She was about to have a seizure, but Won Jae forcibly stretched out his hand and covered her mouth: "Do you want to get out alive?" Do you want to see Ling Zun again? Wang Yunxiu's eyes were stunned, and she nodded quickly. Yuan Zai let go of his hand at this time, and his tone was serious: "You are in extreme danger now, only I can save you out!" Got it? Repeat! ”

Wang Yunxiu was willing to listen, and shook her head desperately. Yuan Jae sneered and got up to leave. She was so frightened that she hurriedly shouted, "I said, I said!" Yuan Zai came back and looked at her coldly and remained silent. Wang Yunxiu was afraid that this last opportunity would slip away, so she reluctantly repeated in a low voice: "Only you can help me out......" The last note was slightly raised, with doubts.

Won Jae secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Wang Yunxiu is the arrogant temper of an eldest lady, and she can only push back with a tougher tone. Her willingness to repeat her words shows that the strategy has begun to work.

He grabbed the kernel between his fingers and stuffed it back into her mouth: "Listen, what I want next is absolute obedience." If you break it once, I'll leave immediately. If you agree, just nod. ”

Wang Yunxiu had no choice but to agree.

"Don't worry, if you meet me today, you won't be hurt again." Yuan Jae said categorically.

Wang Yunxiu's body stopped trembling, after experiencing so much torture, her spirit almost collapsed, and it was nothing less than heaven to hear such words. In a trance, she felt that this person's tone of voice, like that of a father, was full of command, extremely tough, but with deep concern.

After appeasing Wang Yunxiu, Yuan Zai got up and opened the door again, and Feng Dalun was walking towards the door. Yuan Zai stopped him with a gloomy face: "Master Feng, you and I are in trouble." ”

Feng Dalun was stunned, not knowing why he said this. Yuan Zai turned half of his body sideways: "Look at it, is this smelling?" Feng Dalun looked at it, and his face changed. The woman lying down in the room was not at all like Wen Ran. Yuan Zai said again: "You take a closer look." ”

Feng Dalun is also a person who is used to luxury, and after a few glances, he immediately recognized the extraordinaryness of the silver flower and the Nanmu hairpin, and his face was pale. Wonjae gestured for him to come out and speak. Feng Dalun hurriedly withdrew and closed the door.

A few thugs came over, but they were kicked down by Feng Dalun alone. These idiots who suffered from the plague must have been lost halfway, and I don't know whose daughters were kidnapped! He was about to ask for details, but Yuan Zai said coldly on the side: "Feng is the master, don't worry about these things for now, you have to think about how to remedy it." ”

Feng Dalun's forehead was dripping with sweat, and he hurriedly explained: "I'll go and ask now, and let her go quickly......"

"If you do, you're going to be in trouble."

Feng Dalun is also a smart person, as long as he carries a little yuan, he immediately understands the stakes. The families of those nobles in Chang'an City have never understood the way of forgiveness. Put the front foot back, and the back foot private soldiers will rush around. King Yong is cold by nature, but he will not help him.

Zhang Xiaojing was at large in the front, and there were nobles in the back, Feng Dalun felt that today was really bad.

"Or ...... Extinguish? Feng Dalun suddenly thought of this possibility and blurted out. Yuan Zai glanced at him sympathetically, this gang boss is also a Jiupin official with the seal on his waist, how can he think that everything is all about the path of bandits?

He patted Feng Dalun on the shoulder: "Brother Feng, don't want Meng Lang, you can't kill your mouth." I thought of a plan to kill two birds with one stone, which can not only clean up that Zhang Xiaojing and fulfill your wish, but also send this hot potato out smoothly without any trouble. With that, he narrowed his eyes and looked inscrutable.

Yuan Zai has already calculated clearly, and he must firmly grasp this opportunity and play a big game. If you play well, this will be the biggest opportunity for his career at the moment.

Feng Dalun grabbed a life-saving straw and was overjoyed: "Brother Yuan, dare to teach me!" Yuan Zai said: "If you do this, you have to tell me the truth about Zhang Xiaojing's case last year, 1510, and you must not hide anything." ”

"Uh...... Can the elder brother guarantee that nothing goes wrong? ”

"There will be no disappointment." Won Jae smiled, full of confidence in his laughter.

Feng Dalun didn't pay attention, Yuan Zai didn't say who the subject was.

After Zhang Xiaojing, Tan Qi, and Yao Runeng left the imperial city, they immediately rushed back to Guangdefang. Everyone was full of doubts, and there was no conversation along the way.

At this time, the lantern festival is approaching, and the atmosphere on the street is already very strong. At the entrance of Guangde Huaiyuan Street, the scene of the conflict just now has been cleaned up, and now it is occupied by several turtle plays, the gonghou is raised, the pipa is loud, and a large group of people gathered around to watch the excitement, singing and dancing. The recent riot only briefly interrupted the interest of the inhabitants, like an ink speck falling into the water, diluted and invisible at once, without a trace.

They walked through the crowd and walked to the gate of Guangdefang, and found Xu Bin leaning against the flagpole next to the gate, looking this way. As soon as Xu Bin saw Zhang Xiaojing, he was inexplicably surprised, rushed over and grabbed his arm, and the wrinkles on his face were about to shake off with excitement.

The news of their departure from the imperial city had apparently been transmitted back to Jing'an Division by the watchtower. Xu Bin ran out to greet his old friend as soon as possible.

Zhang Xiaojing patted his good friend's shoulder with both hands: "Lao Xu, you are waiting in the company, why do you have to wait at the door?" Xu Bin raised his index finger and made a gesture on his lips: "Shh, I'm here to wait for you, hey, come with me." ”

Looking at his mysterious appearance, it seems that there is a confidential matter to discuss. Yao Runeng said: "Then I'll take the Tanqi girl back to the division first, and you can talk privately." Xu Bin shook his head: "You two will go together...... Oops! He realized that he had said the wrong thing, and with a pat on the head, he quickly shut up, urging him to go quickly.

Halfway through, Zhang Xiaojing pulled his sleeve: "Youde, tell me first, has Wang Yunxiu found it?" He has always been worried about smelling and dyeing, she was taken hostage by the Turks as Wang Yunxiu, and her whereabouts are still unknown. Xu Bin shook his head and said that Li Sicheng had listed it as the first priority, and Jing'an Division had mobilized a large number of cadres to search for it, but there was no good news so far.

"But there is no bad news, no one has found the body." Xu Bin could only be so relieved.

In addition to the public palace of Jingzhao Mansion, there are temples such as Compassion Temple, Changfa Temple, and Shengguang Temple, which are distributed in the four corners of the workshop, which can be described as full of Buddhism. Xu Bin took them around and around, and finally went around to the Temple of Mercy located in the northeast of Cross Street.

This Temple of Mercy has quite a long history. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, there was a monk from the Western Regions named Tan Xian who came here every day to help the poor. Later, Gaozu Dingding, feeling good deeds, set up this temple for him, in the name of "compassion". Therefore, the gate of the Temple of Compassion is open all the year round, and porridge and food will be given during the New Year's holidays, and there are often broken and poor people gathered at the door.

Today's Shangyuan Festival, in front of the Temple of Mercy, vegetarian oil seeds are routinely distributed. This is a must-have snack in Chang'an during the Shangyuan Festival, which is kneaded into a ball with wet noodles and fried in oil, full of fragrance. Many residents waited here early, and a few monks stood on the steps to maintain order, and visitors were not allowed to enter the temple for the time being. When the monk led by saw Xu Bin, he pronounced a Buddha name, and let him go without asking anything. Zhang Xiaojing's heart moved, it seemed that Xu Bin had been prepared, not like a temporary idea.

They passed through the temple gate, crossed the bell tower and drum tower, and went around the side courtyard from the west side of the Daxiong Treasure Hall. Next to the lotus release pond connected to the Cao Canal, there is a simple Zen courtyard grass house. The locust forest stands behind the grass house, which is quite quiet, and a blue brick low wall can be faintly seen behind the locust forest.

Zhang Xiaojing calculated the direction and found that the other side of the wall should be where the main hall of Jing'an Division is located. Jing'an Division uses Sun Simiao's old house, which happens to be separated by a wall from the Temple of Compassion.

This is really strange, what is Xu Bin going around in such a circle?

Xu Bin didn't explain, just hunched his waist and kept urging him to go faster. When they approached the cottage, they saw a man standing by the release pond, standing with his hands in his hands.

"Childe."

The first to shout was Tanqi. Her eyes moistened with grievances. But she quickly suppressed her tears, and was surprised to find that after not seeing her for half an hour, Li Mi seemed to be a different person: her face was pale, her eyes were bloodshot, and there were a few more wrinkles between her eyebrows, as if they had been carved with a knife, which were deep and long.

This appearance is probably only comparable to Wu Zixu, who was white-headed all night. Tan Qi knows that Childe is under a lot of pressure, but what kind of pressure can make him become like this quickly? She felt a pain in her heart, and was about to speak, when Li Mi raised her hand, signaled her to be silent first, and turned her gaze to Zhang Xiaojing:

"Why did Gan Shoucheng let you go?"

Zhang Xiaojing described the situation at the scene, and Li Mi narrowed his eyes: "Captain Zhang, you are worthy of the five Yamas, and even the right Xiaowei dares to burn them down." ”

Zhang Xiaojing smiled: "I failed to repay the court's kindness to my subordinates. ”

Tan Qi's face changed, and the words of this disciple were almost a rebellion. She looked at Gongzi, but Li Mi didn't react, waved her hand, and motioned for a few people to enter the grass house. Tan Qi felt that Childe's edge seemed to be a little loose and weak, as if he had just experienced an extremely difficult ordeal.

There is only one couch and a few futons in the grass house, and a few Buddhist scriptures resting on the rattan trellis. In the middle of the grass house, there is a third-order water leak, which looks like it has just been moved over, and it just covers a statue of Lushena behind it.

Several people knelt down and didn't speak, everyone waited for Li Mi's explanation.

Li Mi stood outside the window with his hands in his hands, deliberately avoiding the eyes of others: "I found Gan Shoucheng just now and made a bet with him. If you are still in the gate when he returns to the Guard, then leave him at his disposal; If you have already gone out of the door, even if you have only taken one step, he will not be held accountable. ”

Zhang Xiaojing understood that this was still related to the detention document. Since there is no clear name of the person in the document, it has become a double-edged sword: the right Xiaowei has caught someone, and he can not recognize it; But if people run away, they can't chase them.

The dividing line among them happens to be at the heavy gate of the right guard. Within the heavy gate, the Health Department is large; Outside the heavy gate, it has nothing to do with the Department of Health.

But Gan Shoucheng is not easy to get along with, since he wants to curry favor with Li Linfu, how can he be willing to make such a bet with Jing'ansi?

"How did you convince him?" Zhang Xiaojing asked.

Li Mi looked out the window and let out a long sigh: "It's not me, it's Supervisor He." ”

Zhang Xiaojing narrowed his eyes: "Huh? He was willing to agree to help? ”

Li Mi said: "I just went to visit Prison He. When He Jian heard that Right Xiaowei had detained the meritorious person privately, he was so angry that he had a seizure and fell unconscious on the spot. He Dong, his adopted son, went to Gan Shoucheng to discuss the law. ”

He briefly recounted the process of his previous meeting with Supervisor He, and everyone present was shocked. He Jian is eighty-six years old, and he is so angry that he is afraid that eighty percent of his life will not be guaranteed.

But if you think about it carefully—although it is a bit disrespectful to say so—He Zhizhang's illness is more effective than his own appearance. You must know that ten days ago, the Son of Heaven also set up a special tent for the elderly to see him off, and the holy family is deep. If the Son of Heaven heard that He Zhizhang was angry to death by Gan Shoucheng's recklessness, and he was furious, a mere right-hand general would not be able to catch it.

Gan Shoucheng and Zhang Xiaojing didn't have a deep hatred, they just sold Li Xiang a favor. For the sake of this benefit, he is not willing to carry the black cauldron that killed He Zhizhang. So under Li Mi's aggressive momentum, plus He Zhizhang's son helping by his side, Gan Shoucheng finally reluctantly made concessions.

This matter is simple to say, and the intrigue is also extremely draining.

Li Mi's fingers pinched the corners of his clothes, and he muttered an abrupt word: "Since ancient Huashan, there is only one road. ”

Tan Qi and Yao Ru could hear this, and they all sighed. They took the risk to infiltrate the Health Department, ready to be isolated, and it turned out that Li Mi had also been running outside and never gave up. Both sides tried their best to miraculously fish out Zhang Xiaojing.

But why can't Zhang Xiaojing go back to Jing'an?

Li Mi snorted, revealing a look of disdain: "Gan Shoucheng has eaten this deflated, but he is not very willing." He let out his words, Zhang Xiaojing is not allowed to appear in the Jing'an Division publicly, otherwise he will detain you again in the name of a prisoner - it is really petty. So I could only find the abbot of the Temple of Compassion and find a grass house separated by a wall from Jing'an Division, and Xu Binhui would be in charge of the liaison between the two sides for the time being. ”

"Anyway, Captain Zhang has no chance to stay in the grass house, so he has the right to coax General Gan to dissipate his anger." Yao Runeng rubbed the futon and said sarcastically.

At the thought of the dignified General Xiaowei playing a scoundrel like a child in order to save face, everyone laughed, and the atmosphere was finally a little lighter.

Zhang Xiaojing didn't laugh, he was deep in thought with his elbows on his knees, his hands on his chin.

He wasn't thinking about the Turks, he was thinking about Li Mi.

When Zhang Xiaojing was a bad handsome, he handled too many cases and listened to too many confessions. There are many contradictions in Li Mi's account.

He Zhizhang has always opposed the use of Zhang Xiaojing, how could he faint in anger because of this incident? At that time, there were only Li Mi and He Zhizhang in the house, He Zhizhang suddenly fell ill, and then Li Mi came out and claimed that it was Right Xiaowei who was angry with the old man, from beginning to end, only Li Mi was alone.

What was the real cause of He Zhizhang's illness? What the hell happened in that room?

Since ancient times, if you want to go up, you have to be conscious and remove all obstacles. What does that mean?

Zhang Xiaojing stared at Li Mi's bloodshot eyes, and suddenly realized that he was not handling a case, and there were some things that he didn't have to understand too clearly. So Zhang Xiaojing clasped his hands into fists: "Li Sicheng once said that he would stop the Turks at all costs, and he really did what he said." ”

Li Mi heard his voice, didn't explain much, and asked lightly: "I wonder if Duwei Zhang is still as promised at the beginning?" ”

"Naturally, otherwise it wouldn't have come back." Zhang Xiaojing said, "The court is the court, and the people are the people." ”

The two glanced at each other, and they both saw something in each other's eyes, tacitly. Outside the Zen courtyard, a birdsong suddenly sounded, and the two of them laughed bitterly at the same time.

"Alright, that's all for the small talk. We've wasted half an hour on idiots, let's get down to business. Li Mi knocked on the side of the couch, and several other people hurriedly straightened up.

He told Zhang Xiaojing all the questions about the number of fierce fire thunders. Zhang Xiaojing nodded: "The hero sees the same. When I climbed out of the river, I wanted to remind Li Sicheng of this - judging from the size of the warehouse, the number of fierce fire mines mastered by the Turks was not too much, but too little. They must have a bigger plan that is being implemented. ”

Li Bi glanced at Xu Bin, Xu Bin hurriedly got up and said: "Hey, there are too many people on the streets today, there are hundreds of animal power and rickshaws near the two cities in the east and west alone, and the number of cars in the streets of the city is not less than 10,000. It is impossible to track down the carts of the Turks transporting fierce fire and thunder just by relying on the watchtower. Now it is ...... again Hey, they were delayed by the right guard for more than half an hour, but they were afraid, they were afraid that they had been transported to the place they wanted. ”

"I have an idea, I wonder if Li Sicheng has ever noticed it?" Zhang Xiaojing's voice became solemn, "I always have a feeling that there are other people behind the Turkic Wolf Guard. ”

"Isn't that a matter of course? The Khan of the steppe, you still need to say it! "There are few people in the grass house, and Tanqi has become bolder.

Zhang Xiaojing shook his head: "No, I mean in this Chang'an City." He drew a few words with his finger in the dust in front of the futon: "Think about it, the Turkic wolf guard asked Cui Liulang for a map of Chang'anfang, because they are not familiar with Chang'an, right?" ”

Li Mi had a calm face and didn't speak, but his hand patted the edge of the couch at once.

"But let's think back to the search along the way. The Turkic Wolf Guard had already lurked a large number of people before, including Wanquan Mansion, as well as a warehouse for assembly, and could also contact the freight merchants in other places - not to mention, the choice of the abandoned warehouse in Changmingfang alone was extremely discerning. The location is private, not far from the downtown area, and there are two entrances and exits, which are convenient for transporting large quantities of goods without the eyes and ears of others. People with this kind of vision must be very familiar with Chang'an, do you still need to find Fangtu again? ”

Yao Runeng tentatively guessed: "Maybe they want to make the plan more precise?" ”

"If the Turkic wolf guard wants to let the fierce fire and thunder cause chaos in the city, there are more than a dozen square meters in the prosperous place of Chang'an, where do you need any square map, just drive the carriage to the north." Zhang Xiaojing picked up a glass of water and drank it all.

Yao Runeng thought about it for a while, and it was indeed the case. The power of the fierce fire thunder is too great, and it doesn't need to be placed exactly where it is, just throw it over and just throw it in a piece.

"The whole plan of the Turkic Wolf Guard gives me a strong feeling, it seems to be composed of two parts of people with completely different styles: some people are very familiar with Chang'an City, have a wide range of contacts, and can even install an internal line in the Zoroastrian Temple in Huaiyuan Fang half a year in advance; There are also some people who are very unfamiliar with Chang'an City, so they have to temporarily turn to Fangtu for help, and they also carried out a hasty assault. ”

After a slight pause, Zhang Xiaojing raised a finger: "To put it simply, it is a sentence: the Turks are just a broken settlement on the grassland, how can they have the ability to independently cross thousands of miles to Chang'an to carry out such a sophisticated attack?" ”

Hearing this, Li Yu's eyes suddenly sharpened, and following Zhang Xiaojing's train of thought, a terrible inference appeared in his mind: "That Zhang Duwei, your conclusion is that someone is helping them?" ”

Zhang Xiaojing put the cup on the ground and said with a wry smile: "I'm afraid...... In addition to the wolf guard, we have to face a more powerful enemy, this enemy is very familiar with Chang'an, and the Turkic wolf guard is just a knife and a pawn for them. ”

As he said this, there was a terrible silence in the grass house. It can be heard that everyone's breathing has become heavy. The Turkic Wolf Guard is actually just the beginning? And an even more formidable enemy? This news is enough to make everyone's eyes black.

Although Li Mi was aware of it before, he didn't think so far as Zhang Xiaojing. The more he thought about it, the more reasonable he felt, but the more reasonable he became, the more frightened he became. What kind of enemy is it that wants to destroy Chang'an City with a fake hand of the Turks? There are many enemies in Datang, but such a ferocious and cunning one is really rare.

There was even a hint of remorse flashing in Li Mi's mind. If Eunuch He is still here, with his court experience, maybe he can see more things. He shook his head self-deprecatingly, driving away these chaotic thoughts: "Xu Bin, is there any progress now?" ”

Xu Bin struggled for a long time, and finally only spit out two words: "No ......"

After the fall of the Turkic Wolf Guard, most people felt that the big thing was decided. Except for Wang Yunxiu, the other investigations are routine finishes, and the investigators will not pay too much attention, let alone find any valuable clues.

Li Mi wanted to order them to re-check, but Zhang Xiaojing stopped him: "It's useless." If it's that mysterious enemy, it won't leave us with any clues to follow. ”

Li Mi stood up with some annoyance and paced around in the grass hut. finally took out the Turkic wolf guard, but a mysterious opponent emerged. Now he knows that he has the heart of Chang'an, but there is no trace of it. He was like a lizard, shaking off the tail of the wolf guard and fleeing directly into the deep fog.

"If there is no clue, then force out the clue! Tell everyone to check hard! The Turkic wolf guard ran away in the West Market before, and then didn't he also find a way? Li Mi shouted to Xu Bin, he paid such a big price, he couldn't give up here.

Xu Bin wiped the sweat from his forehead and checked the paperwork at hand again, trying to find a little better news inside. He looked at it for a long time and reluctantly raised his head: "There is only one ...... Hey, it's barely a clue...... We caught Cao Poyan. ”

Zhang Xiaojing next to him was stunned. He remembered that in the conflict in Changmingfang, he stabbed Cao Poyan to death with his own hands, why did he come back to life?

Li Mi was overjoyed at first, this Cao Poyan is an important figure in the Wolf Guard, and he must know some news; Then he was very angry and arrested such an important person, why didn't Xu Bin report it earlier? Xu Bin brought his eyes close to the paperwork, looked at it a few times, raised his head and said with a wry smile: "Hey, the reason why we didn't report it is because when we found him, he was already seriously injured and dying, and there was no value in questioning." ”

It's too hard to expect a wolf guard to speak willingly. What's more, Cao Poyan was dying and couldn't use torture. It's no wonder that Yasuyasu didn't regard this as a valuable thing.

"Otherwise, let me ask for a question." Zhang Xiaojing moved his fingers and let the murderous aura overflow. Li Mi was puzzled: "He can't stand the methods of your five Yamas now. ”

"You don't have to be strong to pry open a person's mouth." Zhang Xiaojing's one-eyed narrowed, "What's more, this is our only chance." Time is running out. ”

As soon as his words fell, a crisp sound came from the water leak in the Jing'an Division Hall next door to the wall. Immediately the bell of the Temple of Compassion also rang suddenly, from near and far, the drums and bells of Zhufang rang one after another, magnificent and far-reaching, resounding throughout the entire Chang'an City. Thousands of lanterns hold candles at the same time, and the gloomy sky will be brightened again, and the brilliance will be bright, and the fire trees will be silver.

The unitary time has arrived, and the annual grandest Shangyuan Lantern Festival in Chang'an City has begun.
