The main city of northern Sichuan, the political center of the Tang family of the first gate.

Unlike the mineral, mountainous and watery Hengshui, and Dingyang, which focuses on commercial prosperity, northern Sichuan is relatively mysterious in the eyes of the world, and has always been strict with strict checkpoints and strict road bans.

In other words, it is difficult for ordinary people to enter northern Sichuan, let alone go to the legendary core of the Tang family in northern Sichuan, stealing things from a small building.

Lan Yi looked at the check-in posts from a distance, and couldn't help but be speechless. Wen Zhen is not surprised, this is completely wartime defense, and the Tang family will rise in an instant.

All the people who enter and leave the city, ten miles away from the city of northern Sichuan, must be checked one by one, the local household watchman's certificate, and the local people must be guaranteed by the local people. Entering and leaving the city became very slow, and the people did not complain, which shows the Tang family's control over the three states of northern Sichuan.

In the middle of the morning, there was a commotion at the end of the long procession, and the sound of horses' hooves came quickly, and the people looked back to see who could still ride their horses at this time.

No one gave way, because no matter how fast the horse was, it would have to stop before it reached the check.

The smoke and dust rolled to the front, to everyone's surprise, the horses did not stop at all, and the leader of the group of knights held a black flag in his hand, and a steel knife was drawn on the banner, and shouted in a long voice: "Hengshui Iron, there is good news in the three-inch valley——"

The soldiers at the check-in post were already about to come forward to stop them, but when they heard this, they withdrew their horses one after another, and let the dozen or so horsemen drive straight in.

The people were talking.

"Why don't these people have to queue up for checks? Doesn't it mean that even the Tang family has to search their bodies one by one? ”

"yes, weird. Obviously, the access control has been very strict recently......"

"Hey, Tang Thirty-seven, aren't you known as a jack of all trades? You know what's going on, don't you? ”

"Of course I do! This is the team that went to Hengshui to mine, I have been digging for a long time, and I haven't dug it, look at it now, is it digging? That's great news! Of course, you have to put it in the city as soon as possible! ”

"You can't just ask!"

"Then you don't know anything. What didn't you hear? Do you know about crosswater mining? Don't know, right? This is the top secret of the Tang family, only the direct children of the Tang family know, not to mention the specific address of mining, those who can know this code must only be the direct participants, so what else do you have to interrogate? ”

Everyone was relieved, but there was no joy, and some people muttered that what happened to digging up iron ore? Such hard work in mining and smelting iron, it will not be to make a few more iron pots for the people, it must be to make weapons, and making weapons means that the war is coming.

Although the people were war-weary, but after all, the right to speak was only in the hands of the Tang family, and they could only continue to line up honestly, but suddenly they heard a sound of horses' hooves, this time everyone subconsciously gave way to a road, and sure enough, the horse team did not stop, and immediately the knight raised the cyan banner and said loudly: "The suburbs of Tianjing, the assassination is urgent!" ”

The soldiers who were checking all showed shocked looks, and hurriedly withdrew the barricade again, and the people watched the group of people roll away again, and looked back in surprise to find the well-informed Tang Jiayuan's brother Tang Thirty-seven, but saw that he had also walked out of the crowd with a white face, and he didn't dare to explain everyone's doubts anymore.

Everyone looked at the backs of those knights, and faintly felt that something important seemed to have happened.

A quarter of an hour later.

As the first group of knights galloped into the city, they slowed down their horses and joined the crowd, who were very familiar with the road, turned left and right, and gradually disappeared into the alley.

The same was true of the second team of knights, and in another quarter of an hour, in a restaurant in the south of the city in northern Sichuan, two private rooms that had been chartered were opened.

The location of the restaurant is not far from the main courtyard of the Tang family, but no matter how high the restaurant is built, there is no building of the Tang family.

The entire Tang family occupies nearly a small half of the area in northern Sichuan, and there is a circle of lake water on the periphery, and the giant trees planted in the middle and edge of the lake for hundreds of years are a rare extremely tall tree, like a huge natural barrier, which wraps the Tang family tightly. Such a design was supposed to be unsafe, as the Assassins could use trees to shield them. But the crown of this tree is very peculiar, very neat, the branches are sparse, the Tang family will also send someone to prune it regularly, each tree has its own unique crown shape, every Tang family guard is familiar with this shape, this situation will lead to once someone hides, the crown shape will change, and it will be discovered at a glance. In addition, it is said that this forest itself is a formation, and it is difficult to sneak in and get out, so there are no people inside, and there are a lot of white bones.

The Tang family, which was wrapped in the middle of the lake and the woods, was called Tang City. No one can outline the outline and pattern of Tang City, and no one knows the location and shape of the small building.

At this moment, in the restaurant, Lan Yi turned his head a little incredulously, looking at the people who were eating calmly, and couldn't figure out how it was so easy to come in?

Wen Zhen smiled and raised his teacup to her.

Is it easy?

Easy.

But it's not easy.

All of them, along with the selected elite guards, were divided into two teams, one team pretending to be the messenger of Hengshui Mining, and the other team pretending to be the messenger of Tang Xiaocheng's team returning to Beijing. One team drilled the Tang family's secret mining, and the other team drilled the Tang family's concern about Tang Xiaocheng's safety in Tianjing.

No one knows the specific address and situation of the Tang family's secret mining, but the mining itself was operated by Yan Sui, and the prospecting master who lied that he had a mine was sent by him after three years of hard work.

Although it is not a secret that Tang Xiaocheng went to Tianjing, Tang Xiaocheng's body is a secret, and the cyan flag represents Tang Xiaocheng's asthma attack, but Tang Xiaocheng's asthma is still due to Yan Sui!

If others don't know, can he not know?

So it's easy to say.

But these are all the information channels and results that Yan Sui has spent more than ten years slowly infiltrating into the paving, and it is an arduous and persistent attack on the Tang family, which is like an impregnable wall, how can it be easily obtained?

So it's not easy.

At least except for Yan Sui, no one can do it.

Behind him, Yan Sui said: "Rest early, and I will leave for Hengshui tomorrow." ”

Wen Zhen responded, she didn't talk to Yan Sui about going to Xiaolou to get the gems, Yan Sui knew that she would definitely not agree.

Entering the main city of northern Sichuan is because there is a direct wharf leading to Hengshui in northern Sichuan, and because it is the waterway of the main city, no one has checked all the way, it is the shortest and fastest way to cross the three states of the Tang family, Lin Qing must return to the border as soon as possible, and the later it is, the more prone it is to change.

The restaurant is naturally one of Yan Sui's strongholds in northern Sichuan, according to Chinese, their people have opened no less than thirty strongholds in northern Sichuan in the past ten years, involving all walks of life, these years by the Tang family to suppress the pull, now there are only three left, this restaurant is one of them, the owner of the restaurant and the Tang family have some in-law relations, so it has survived to this day.

In the evening, I will sleep in the courtyard behind the restaurant, and someone will arrange tomorrow's boat ride. Wen Zhen was still trying to think of a way to make Yan Sui fall asleep, but Yan Sui herself said that she wanted to meet the guests and let her go to bed earlier. Wen Zhen was in the middle of it, so she said that Yan Sui was too a tiger and wolf in the past few days, she wanted to sleep by herself, and asked for another room, put down the tent, and let Cai Sang guard, and she and Lan Yi quietly went out from the back of the restaurant.

At night, a curfew had been imposed on the streets of northern Sichuan, and it was empty, except for the neat footsteps of a group of guards, rattling on the frosty ground.

North Sichuan is a very strange city, very big, not many people, part of the building is simple and old, scattering the vicissitudes of a hundred years of the city and the heavy wind, part is relatively new, the architectural style is also exquisite or gorgeous or atmospheric or solemn, and vaguely shows that belongs to young people will have the courage to try to like the style of change. Wen Zhen thought that this may be a symbol of the integration of the old and new forces of the Tang family and the transformation from the old forces to the new rulers of the younger generation.

Lan Yi looked at Wen Zhen a little strangely - Wen Zhen was wearing a tattered cotton jacket, her face was dirty, and she was like a woman named Hanako.

She was a little incredible, and she didn't understand why Wen Zhen did this, it was true that Hanako wandered without attracting attention, and it was generally easy to arouse sympathy and would not be embarrassed, but with such an identity, why should she be so?

Lan Yi didn't want to pretend to be called Huazi, but she wore a colorful paddy field coat over her white clothes, which in Wen Zhen's opinion, was similar to Baijiayi. He also wore a hood to cover his hair and eyes.

Wen Zhen didn't try to go to the lake, but walked around the lake to the west, where she had already inquired about the dark pile here during the day, and it was the location of the Tang family's family temple.

She wanted to find Wang Yan's mother.

This is something she has always been worried about, and it is also one of the reasons why she wants to come to northern Sichuan, Wang Yan said on his deathbed that his mother was under house arrest by the Tang family, and begged her to have a chance to save her, and now, she is here.

She had already sent a letter here to investigate the location of Wang Yan's mother, and reported that although it was impossible to determine where the person was, it was not very likely that outsiders would be in Tang City, but the Tang Family Temple was a very peculiar place. It is said that there are many children of the Tang family's side branches who have committed crimes, and some secret figures who are not enough for outsiders to see, and it is very likely that Wang Yan's mother is there.

The family temple is not an important place, Wen Zhen went all the way quietly, with her skills, she avoided a lot of difficulties for those patrolling soldiers, and finally crossed a deserted wood, and saw the eaves of the Tang family temple.

There was an unobstructed road ahead, but fortunately the moon was dim, and she was about to pass by, when she suddenly heard the rustling of footsteps, and a large light turned out.

She had already left the woods at this time, and on that uncovered section of the road, Lan Yi was behind her, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw that Lan Yi quickly hid back in the woods, and she had nothing to hide.

She could already see the person in front, and where she retreated at this time was eye-catching.

Wen Zhen squatted in the shadows on the side of the road, wrapped his big cotton jacket, smeared a handful of black mud on the ground and wiped it on his face again, and his body was a mess.

The rustling footsteps approached, she counted the steps, neat, there were many people, the guards were like clouds, and the big people went out on patrol.

Who will it be?

Those sages of the Don Presbyterian Church?

In the middle of the night, why did the important people of the Tang family come to this deserted family temple?

Someone at the door of the family temple, who was vaguely heard in the distance, seemed to be sending the visitor out of the door, and his voice was humble: "...... Rest assured, you've taken care of your ...... You don't have to come so often......"

Wen Zhen was slightly relieved.

This person often comes to visit the family temple, so it is a coincidence that he bumped into him today.

After a pause, the man's voice was a little surprised, and he said, "Take them all?" Right now? Yes...... Be. Be. ”

The footsteps started again, the golden roof of the sedan chair in the distance flashed slightly, and the air dead wind lamp swayed out a large halo, and a figure dressed in a big sedan chair was vaguely seen.

A large group of guards came with a large sedan chair, and there was a large group of maids on both sides of the sedan chair, a long row of lanterns in their hands illuminated all sides, and someone went to the woods in front of them to set up defenses, Wen Zhen was a little worried that Lan Yi would be discovered, but she didn't dare to look up at the moment, she even exposed a strand of hair to the light.

Someone came over and shouted, "Where did Hanako come from!" Don't linger here, go away! ”

To do a full set of plays, Wen Zhen hurriedly got up, bowed her head and bent down to go to the dark, a hard steamed bun fell in her arms, she hurriedly reached out to pick it up, and the person who came to drive her stepped on the boots, and the steamed bun was shattered on the soles of her feet.

Wen Zhen sobbed very playfully, his voice was rough, but he didn't dare to scold, and hurriedly retreated with his head down.

The sedan chair suddenly stopped.

Wen Zhen's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously raised his eyes.

At this moment, the sedan chair is stopping in front of her, the sedan chair is noble, and it is also decorated with pearl lights, and the snow-white silk satin sedan chair curtain is faintly reflected in the silhouette of the person in the sedan chair.

Wen Zhen only glanced at it, and immediately lowered his head.

In winter, the cold wind in northern Sichuan is like a cut, wandering in the streets of the silent night, the lanterns collide and make an empty thumping sound, and at this moment, no one can see whose appearance can be seen clearly through the screen window.

As if it was just a moment, and as if it was a long time, the person in the sedan car moved slightly, and someone hurriedly stepped forward, lifted the sedan curtain, and listened to his whispered instructions.

Wen Zhen shrank to the side, looking shivering from the cold, but he was actually ready for everything.

After a while, the man put down the sedan curtain, held a paper bag in his hand, presumably given to him by the person in the sedan chair, walked over, bent down and handed it to Wen Zhen, and said, "My master said, the night is cold and the wind is cold, don't wander outside." Warm up with some hot food. ”

Wen Zhen hurriedly thanked him, his voice was vague, and he took the paper bag, and his tentacles were still hot.

The man didn't say much, got up and returned to the team, waved his hand to get up the sedan chair, and the big sedan chair was raised. The lights faded away with the rustling of footsteps.

From beginning to end, the sedan curtain was not lifted.

There was only a faint aroma of turnip in the wind, and it was familiar in a trance.

Wen Zhen held the paper bag for a long time, she knew that there was no problem in it, it was just a hot mouthful. However, because of this, she has mixed feelings in her heart.

Lan Yi walked over quietly and said a little happily: "Who passed by just now?" It's a big battle, if it weren't for the luck of the mountain rocks to condense the ice sculpture, I would have almost been discovered...... Hey, what are you doing in a daze? What is it? ”

Wen Zhen woke up and opened the paper bag, which were two steamed buns that were still exuding steam, vegetarian filling, and the snow-white bun folds faintly revealed a touch of green vegetables, spraying the fragrance of sesame oil, in the cold wind of this winter night, it was soft and hot.

She smiled and handed the bun to Lan Yi, "It's cold, eat some hot food to warm up, don't worry, it's not poisonous." ”

Lan Yi also took it, and said while eating: "I don't like vegetarian stuffing, what do you say is poisonous or not, you are just suspicious and sick......"

Wen Zhen smiled again and said, "Yes, I am seriously suspicious. ”

There was movement in the family temple over there, and the carriages came, Wen Zhen pulled Lan Yi into the woods and waited, and after a while, some old and young, men and women, all got into the car with small baggage.

Suddenly, there was a commotion, and someone rushed out of the door, looked at the carriage after carriage, and kept shuttling through the crowd, and finally said urgently: "...... The eldest prince is gone again! ”

Then someone said, "How is this good?" The master has just ordered the people to be sent back together...... Do you want to catch up and report it? ”

The man said, "Or wait?" The eldest prince often goes out to relax...... It didn't take long to get back...... Now report it, in case ......"

The rest of the people were silent, and someone said: "Then leave a car and a few people waiting for the eldest prince." ”

One carriage after another went in the direction of Tangcheng.

When the carriage was all gone, Lan Yi said, "Do you still want to go to the family temple now?" ”

Wen Zhen shook his head, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

"No need to go."

The people in the family temple have all been transferred back to Tang City overnight, and she can't go to Tang City tonight.

"Help me with my disguise."

After a while, she had changed her outfit and a face, very simple black clothes, a faint and cold face.

Tang Muzhi's face.

Lan Yi will change her appearance, Wen Zhen has already drawn a portrait of Tang Muzhi before, ask her for help, not to mention that it is exactly the same, and it looks like a seventy or eighty percent at first glance in the dark night.

She already knew about it when the news was reported in this restaurant before. Tang Xiaocheng went to Beijing, Tang Xianzhi presided over the overall situation in northern Sichuan, and Tang Muzhi has not been back for a long time. Thinking about it, she has almost betrayed the family, how dare she return to the Tang family easily.

Wen Zhen is going to take advantage of this loophole.

A quarter of an hour later, the calm in front of the moat of Tang City was shattered.

Two people broke through the night and stepped on the frost.

The first person was dressed in black, with delicate and angry eyes, and while rushing forward, he scolded: "Lan Yi, you crazy person! Dare to go to my northern Sichuan to spread wild! ”

Lan Yi, who returned to her white clothes later, played the role of the Ice and Snow Banshee in her true colors, her silver hair was extremely conspicuous in the dark night, floating in the air leisurely, and sneered: "The person who is favored by the master of this sect, you dare to think about it!" What about the Tang family? I still dare to rip you off before Tang City! ”

The soldiers defending the city above Tang City had been alarmed, and seeing from a distance that it was the sixth lady who had been missing for a long time, they were all shocked and hurriedly reported to the top, and then lit the wind lantern at the head of the city, and carefully shone on the bottom, but they did not immediately open the city gate and the drawbridge.

Over there, Wen Zhen didn't plan to ask anyone to come to Kaicheng at all, sneered, and said, "Come on, come on!" "A whistle of lips, a moment later a shrill chirp, and suddenly an eagle swooped down in the night sky!

The eagle spread its wings, Wen Zhen jumped up, rode the eagle, swept the lake at a low altitude, swept the waves with long wings, and flew over his clothes, which was really chic.

This hand was revealed, and the people above Tang Cheng exclaimed, and they all said, "Sixth Miss! ”

Immediately, in the lake and above the large array of woods behind the lake, suddenly there were lights on, and those lights turned back and forth, vaguely staying on each tree for a moment, as if only a certain stroke was illuminated every time, Wen Zhen knew that this was the formation breaking mechanism, but at this moment it was too late to record slowly, she also had to show that she was very familiar with the password of the mechanism and could not pause at all, so she whistled another eagle to come down and carry herself, and was engrossed in following the instructions of the light to move forward and backward, turn left and right...... Vaguely felt as if it was a stroke of each tree, connected by a few words, until she was about to feel dizzy and vomit, and suddenly her eyes lit up, and a huge square crashed into her field of vision, and she knew that she had finally broken into the most mysterious Tang family center in the hearts of the world.

She laughed, and in front of the guards in the square, she turned her head and made a gesture of disdain commonly used by people in northern Sichuan in the direction behind her, and sneered: "Come on, there is a kind of coming to kill me!" ”

The lights on the square were dim, there were crowds of people, and someone said in a deep voice: "Tang Muzhi, since you are back, you have to abide by the rules, and you will kneel for a month with a hundred whips in the precept hall, and go and get it yourself first!" ”

Wen Zhen's answer was to open his arms, and suddenly there was a noisy sound, countless rats, snakes, insects, ants, and poisons rolled in from all directions of the square like a black tide, rolling towards the feet of the crowd, and the neat crowd was suddenly chaotic, and in the chaos, Wen Zhen learned Tang Muzhi's voice, and sneered in a dumb voice: "You are also worthy of punishing me?" Daddy's not here, where's my brother? My brother is in a small building? Then talk to my brother! ”

After speaking, she turned around and left, turned left and met a row of photo walls, stretched out her hand to shoot on the third photo wall, boomed and moved away, showing a road, she flashed in, someone caught up and shouted: "Miss Six, you are reckless again......" The voice did not fall and was kissed by a red chain snake that came out of the probe behind the wall.

And Wen Zhen has long since disappeared.

She is like the real Tang family's sixth lady, and she knows everything about the internal path of the Tang family that ordinary Tang family children living in Tang City can't know. Cross rockeries, cross rivers, cross pavilions, and solve organs.

She came to the Tang family for the first time.

In the past, Yan Sui's fine works were able to penetrate, and it was difficult to enter the hinterland of the Tang family.

But back then, Tang Xianzhi once left her a gift and a piece of paper in the temporary residence of the first courtyard of Yiwang Mansion.

The gift was a jade pendant, the paper was unremarkable, with a bright red seal on it.

Later, Changchuan and Tang Xianzhi met, and Tang Xianzhi once tested her if she would use the seal to fake his seal.

But such an obvious hint, then it's not a hint.

So her attention has always been on the carving of the jade pendant.

The jade pendant is delicately carved, like a comic book, pavilions, houses, roads, peaks and valleys, city walls and lakes.

The so-called things are abnormal, there must be demons, and she wrote down all the carvings at that time. Today, Tang Cheng looked up before him, and sure enough.

The city wall is the wall of the Tang City, the lake is the lake that moats the city, the mountain peak is the mountain behind the Tang City, and the road is the road inside the Tang City.

On the jade pendant, the layout of Tang City is engraved.

She raised her head, and all kinds of patterns of the jade pendant flashed in her mind, there are buildings, but they are all ordinary, and she feels that she is not worthy of the title of Tang Xiaolou. Her memories are stuck in the last picture, in a sparkling pool of water, empty on all sides, and there are reflections of tall buildings in the water.

Now, the pool that was about to freeze, larger than the square when she entered, was right in front of her.

……

Set a small goal first, such as remembering in 1 second: book guest residence
