Cao Cao was stunned when he saw this, and smiled in surprise: "Wangjiang, what is this for?" He said as he walked down the steps. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Cao Cao went to help Zhang Xi.

Zhang Xi bowed with a look of shame: "Your Majesty, please cure the crime of Weichen!" ”

"Punishment? Where does this begin? Cao Cao asked puzzled.

Zhang Xi showed a hesitant look, and then Zhang Xi said: "Your Majesty, Weichen caught a smuggler today, and learned from his mouth that Weichen smuggled out the catapult pattern!" ”

Cao Cao was shocked, and then frowned.

Helped Zhang Xi up, "Don't worry! Get things as they are! ”

Zhang Xi nodded and told the whole story.

Cao Cao frowned and said, "This is not your responsibility Aiqing, it is the responsibility of the secret guard!" ”

"What kind of catapult is the catapult pattern?"

Zhang Xi replied: "According to the merchant's confession, it is the pattern of the catapult produced in the earliest period of our army!" ”

Cao Cao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, "Who is their buyer?" ”

Zhang Xi shook his head, "They said they didn't know each other's identities!" ”

"Humph! I don't know! I see that they don't see the coffin and don't shed tears! Someone, summon the cabinet ministers! ”

A moment later, the cabinet ministers hurried to the Qianqing Palace.

Everyone felt that something bad might have happened.

Cao Cao said to Zhang Xi: "Wangjiang, tell everyone what happened!" ”

Zhang Xi answered the promise and recounted the entire incident to the cabinet ministers.

Everyone was shocked, Xun Yu frowned and said, "This is the dereliction of duty of the secret guard!" Your Majesty, the Secret Guard must be held accountable! ”

Cao Cao nodded, "This matter will be handled by your cabinet!" ”

"Yes!"

"I don't understand! How could such a thing happen after the events of the last time? Cao Cao said with a look of annoyance.

Chen Gong pondered: "Due to the wide range of equipment of this earliest catapult, in order to facilitate maintenance, the main warehouses in various places have kept the drawings of such catapults for easy repair nearby!" Weichen thought, this drawing should have flowed out of the local warehouse! ”

Cao Cao turned his head to look at Zhang Xi.

Zhang Xi said: "The other party did not explain this matter!" ”

Cao Cao smiled, "Wangjiang is not good at torture after all!" Li Tianke! ”

"Wechen is here!" Li Tianke hurriedly agreed.

Cao Cao said: "I will hand over this smuggler to you!" Be sure to pry his mouth open for me! He's just a businessman, so I'm sure it won't be difficult! ”

"Wechen obeys!"

Cao Cao muttered, "Who will be the person who bought the drawings?" The Romans and the Jin people were not much worse than us in catapult technology, and the pattern of such catapults was of no use to them! ”

Cao Cao's heart moved, "Hmph! It seems that someone is restless! Wen Ruo, let Jin Yiwei make every effort to investigate the recent movements of Dawan and Dong Guishuang! ”

"Your Majesty suspects it's them?"

Cao Cao nodded, frowned, and said, "According to all aspects of the situation, they are the most suspicious!" ”

Chen Gong nodded and said, "What Your Majesty said is extremely true!" But don't drink it and ignore the others! Weichen believed that while investigating the Eastern Guishan and Dawan, he should also investigate the Western Regions and the Western Guishan, Anxi, and Kangju. ”

Cao Cao was stunned. Puzzled, he said: "Kangju has always been respectful to my Great Wei, there shouldn't be a problem, right?" ”

Chen Gong clasped his fist at Cao Cao and replied: "At present, of course, there is no problem with Kangju, but in the Kangju King, his heart is unpredictable!" ”

Cao Cao frowned and nodded.

Cao Cao said: "What the public station said is reasonable, but there is no need to investigate them!" These countries are extremely close to the Empire, and if there is any trouble, it is impossible to hide it from us! Just do what I just said! ”

"Yes!"

Cao Cao thought for a moment and said, "From today onwards, all the prisoners intercepted by the Ministry of Commerce will be handed over to the Criminal Department for interrogation!" ”

"Yes!"

That night, when Diao Chan listened to Cao Cao's account of today's events, he couldn't help but say angrily: "Why are there always some people who are willing to sell everything for money? "The little one looks very excited.

Mihuan on the side sighed, "There is a saying among the people, 'People die for money, birds die for food', although it is vulgar, but it also shows a simple truth!" ”

Cai Yan nodded, and said with deep feelings: "The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and the world is shouting for profit!" That's it! ”

Cao Cao smiled: "Okay, okay! If you keep talking, you'll be a bunch of old ladies! ”

The women threw a roll of their eyes at Cao Cao together.

Cao Cao smiled.

East Guishan Jinyiwei headquarters.

Located on the most prosperous south street in the capital of East Kushan, it is small in scale, and in the eyes of outsiders, it is the residence of an Assyrian merchant.

"Qianhu, the order from Chang'an!"

A person dressed as a coolie presented a letter to the person who looked like a shopkeeper in front of him, in fact, these two people were not coolies and shopkeepers at all, but secret agents of the Wei Empire, and the person who looked like a shopkeeper was one of the thousands of households in Jinyiwei, Zhuo Yifan, he was the person in charge of the entire Guishan Jinyiwei, and the coolie-like person was an intelligence officer under him, named Zhang Yuan.

Zhuo Yifan read the order and was surprised, "This is an order sent by His Majesty personally!" ”

Zhang Yuan couldn't help but be surprised, "The order sent by His Majesty personally?!" ”

Zhuo Yifan nodded, "Your Majesty asked us to find a way to figure out what Dong Guishuang is currently planning!" It seems that Dong Guishuang's abnormal movements during this period have attracted His Majesty's attention! ”

"But Qianhe, we tried many methods, but none of them were able to figure out each other's intentions!"

Zhuo Yifan frowned, "Since that's the case, then use the most direct method!" Summoning the Shadow Team! ”

"Yes!"

The so-called 'shadow team' is actually a force that carries out special tasks in the brocade guards, and they are specifically responsible for infiltrating to obtain information, and to put it in layman's terms, their job is to steal information by the most direct means.

As night fell, the Imperial Capital of Guishan did not become calm, the night market gradually became hot, and those brothels of the Red Mansion became more and more lively.

However, the Kushan Imperial Capital and its surroundings are quiet, in fact, it is also very quiet during the day.

The six men in black quickly approached the palace in the shadows and came to the palace wall, when the patrol on the palace wall happened to pass by.

The man in black stopped under the palace wall for a moment, waited for the patrol to go away, took out the rope hook, and threw it on the palace wall, and then the six men in black quickly climbed up like apes.

The six men in black put away their hooks and quickly climbed down from the inside. No sooner had they entered the shadows of the trees than a group of rangers passed by the wall of the palace where they had just passed.

Six men in black scurried through the shadows, and from time to time palace maids and guards passed around them, but no one noticed them.

Outside a dormitory, the six men in black divided into three groups and headed to three different dormitories.

One of the groups came to the outside of the largest dormitory, which was the main target of their trip, which was the dormitory of the moonlord. As the dormitory of the Eastern Kushan Emperor, the guards here can be described as three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry, and the front and back are not only heavily guarded, but also illuminated by the lights, as if it were daytime. It is almost impossible to get close to the dormitory in such a situation.

The two black-clothed men hiding in the shadows exchanged glances, and then slowly crawled towards the side and back of the dormitory against the foot of the wall. The two men in black stopped under a bush of bushes and observed for a moment.

Just as the two of them were about to make a move, a soldier ran towards them.

The two of them were startled, and then calmed down, because they saw that the other party should not have run over because they had discovered the two of them.

The soldier stopped a few steps in front of the two men and pulled his pants open. The two black-clothed people scolded in their hearts, but they didn't dare to move in the slightest.

Suo Suoso's voice sounded, and a man in black was drenched in unpreparedness, and a breath of shame made the two of them gag.

The Kushan soldier shivered happily, put on his pants and left.

The two men in black breathed a sigh of relief and exchanged a tacit look with each other.

Knock knock!

A series of sounds suddenly rang out in a corner of the darkness.

The guards were startled and immediately showed a look of vigilance, and the six soldiers immediately searched the place where the noise was made, looking very cautious, and the others were also paying attention in that direction.

At the same time, two dark shadows quickly scurried into the steps of the dormitory under the shadow of the lamp.

The two guards felt as if someone was behind them, and looked back, but found nothing.

Two men in black hide in the shadows of the railing like nimble tanuki.

At this time, the six searching soldiers did not find anything suspicious in the place where the noise was made, and the two soldiers waved their hands to the people on guard at the edge of the dormitory, indicating that there was no problem.

Everyone couldn't help but feel relieved.

The two men in black sneaked to the back door of the dormitory and quietly flashed in taking advantage of the blind spot in the guards' sight.

The two of them hid in the shadows, observed, and found that a long corridor in the house led straight to the core of the dormitory, just like the drawings they had obtained before, but at the entrance of the long corridor there were more than a dozen palace maids, this was the only entrance, and the two had no way to enter at all, nor could they use the previous method, because once there was a strange noise, the guards outside the door would inevitably rush in, and then the two would have nowhere to hide.

"What should I do?" A man in black asked in a whisper.

"I have to use the smoke!" As he spoke, he took out an object resembling a spherical sachet from his bosom and lit it.

The palace maids smelled a very unique fragrance, and one of the palace maids couldn't help but say, "It's so fragrant!" What is this? Then I felt dizzy and fell softly. The other palace maids also passed out.

The man in black hurriedly put away the sachet and quickly ran towards the palace.

The two came out of the corridor, here is a side door in the northwest corner of the dormitory, there is a big bed in the middle of the dormitory, the carved beams and paintings are inlaid with gold and jade, the two people on the big bed are engaged in fierce 'hand-to-hand combat', the heavy gasps of men and women make people's faces red and their hearts beat faster, and the air is filled with an extremely ambiguous atmosphere.
