At night, He Jingying, Mrs. Qi and Cao Jingzhao changed into night clothes, turned out of the small window of the inn, and skimmed towards the Taishou Mansion. The three of them were extremely fast, leaving three dark shadows in the narrow alleyway.

The curfew in Stone Town is different from other places, where the curfew is generally closed from square to square, but in Stone Town, everyone is closed and not allowed to go out. There are guards patrolling the streets from time to time, but because of the narrow streets of Stone Town, the area of the shops is much smaller than that of the capital, and many merchants put the sundries that cannot be placed in the scores outside the shops, but there are many more places to hide.

When approaching the Taishou Mansion, there were more guards. The three of them crouched on the roof closest to the Taishou Mansion, their black night clothes and cyan tiles blending together in the thick night.

He Jingying secretly counted the fires swimming inside and outside the Taishou Mansion: "There may be three hundred guards inside. ”

Cao Jingzhao said suddenly: "So much? Even in the past, there were not so many people in the palace who were on duty at night, and this was too guarded and not big. ”

"That means we're in the right place." He Jingying's face was hidden under a black scarf, revealing a pair of bright upward phoenix eyes. "These guards should change shifts when the time comes, and we can go in at that time."

Mrs. Qi said uneasily: "Lord Ling, don't you think the terrain of this Taishou Mansion is too strange?" ”

"What do you mean?"

Mrs. Qi didn't dare to move too much on the roof, but she still pointed her finger around: "Look, Lord, the shops here are all three-story high, and the location we are staying in is not far from the Taishou Mansion, if you can borrow a rope, you can jump into the Taishou Mansion from this roof." Isn't it strange that Taishou Mansion has such a layout, so that there are so many high positions around him? ”

He Jingying and Mrs. Qi glanced at each other: "There is a mechanism." ”

Then you can't just climb over the wall.

He Jingying calmly knelt on the beams of the house, carefully observed the guards for a while, and said, "Mrs. Qi, you see, the patrol route of these guards, especially the group outside, seems to be only guarding a few doors. They didn't seem to be worried about someone climbing over the wall from outside the wall. ”

Mrs. Qi's willow eyebrows twisted together: "It seems that the wall is really installed, how can we get in now?" ”

He Jingying took a deep breath: "I only left from the main entrance." ”

"The front door?" Cao Jingzhao stared at the twenty guards in front of the main gate, and his eyes straightened. "Don't say that there are twenty people in front of the main gate, as long as someone breaks through the door, the guards of the other two doors and the guards inside will surround them, so there are sixty or seventy people, how can we fight with only three of us?"

Cao Jingzhao pointed to the nearest door to them, which should be the side door for maids and servants to enter and exit. "Besides, aren't we the closest to this side door? If you want to break in, you have to break through the side door. ”

He Jingying said: "Under normal circumstances, the side door is the easiest to enter the thief, so although the guards here are similar to the main gate, the guard strength should be the strongest, not to mention that if you enter through the side door, you have to pass through the residence of the subordinate first, and then break into the main courtyard, which is too troublesome." ”

Cao Jingzhao was puzzled: "How do you know that the entrance must be in the main courtyard?" ”

He Jingying glanced at Cao Jingzhao, thinking that it was no wonder that this person would think of such a reckless thing as burning the Buddha Hall when he saved her.

Mrs. Qi smiled: "Jing Zhao, why can't you turn the corner?" Shen Wenji was once ordered to secretly build a chariot, since it was a secret fabrication, the subordinates of the Taishou Mansion must not know. You said that if Shen Wenji wants to stay somewhere and pretend to be closed, where is the most appropriate? ”

"Study!" Cao Jingzhao finally understood this simple Taoist ideal.

The last time He Jingying and Xiao Lian broke into the Taishou Mansion, He Yin checked that when they broke into Stone City, Xiao Ziliang was also in the city, so Xiao Ziliang should have been in the Taishou Mansion at that time. But He Jingying and Xiao Lian didn't see Xiao Ziliang, and Shen Wenji stopped them in front of the door of the study at that time. Nine times out of ten, the entrance to the secret passage is inside.

He Jingying said: "Since we only have to break through the main gate, then we don't have to wait for the ugly time." ”

Cao Jingzhao looked at the group of guards walking around below, and was a little nervous. Although his hand is not weak, but there are so many people, one person and one knife can exhaust him to death, not to mention that there is a mechanism that I don't know where it is buried, if it is accidentally involved, it is estimated that the three of them will be buried in front of this Taishou Mansion today.

Cao Jingzhao cautiously asked, "Concubine Taisun, do we really want to break through the main gate?" Do you want to think of another way? ”

He Jingying looked up at Cao Jingzhao: "Jingzhao, are you running fast?" ”

"Huh?" Cao Jingzhao's intuition was not good, and he looked at He Jingying's bright eyes with some cunning, and suddenly felt a little weak. "Also...... Not bad. ”

He Jingying nodded, with a little pity in her eyes: "Run faster, don't take the trail, the inn converges." ”

"Huh?"

Before Cao Jingzhao could react to what he meant, his whole body had already flown out of the roof, and landed in front of the side door with a "bang", and he looked at the guard standing in front of the side door.

Cao Jingzhao: "......"

Guard: "Who?!" ”

Cao Jingzhao: "...... Your uncle! ”

Cao Jingzhao's eyes flashed with white light, and he subconsciously took out the knife from his waist, and the blades met with a "bang". This guard turned out to be a man of few words.

Cao Jingzhao was even more speechless, so he had to howl at the top of his throat: "There are assassins!" ”

The guard paused, and he didn't understand what kind of operation Cao Jingzhao was doing. However, the guards of the Taishou Mansion were all well-trained, and before this guard could figure it out, the guards of the other two gates surrounded him.

Cao Jingzhao practiced the kung fu of pure yang, and he opened and closed all the way down, but he was a little interested. After a few moves, he first put down the guard who didn't talk much. Suddenly, Cao Jingzhao, who was besieged by ten people, jumped high and dodged the white blade that came from the horizontal split. When he landed, he was short, and with a kick of his sweeping legs, the ten guards suddenly made a mess. If it weren't for the ten people who immediately withdrew their swords, those bright white blades would have fallen on their own people.

Cao Jingzhao saw that the guards were messing around, and he didn't love fighting, he threw his hand, and the zipline shot out of his sleeve, nailed to the roof with a "bang", he pressed the mechanism in his sleeve, and the zipline pulled his whole person up to the roof. He landed steadily on the roof where Fang Cai, He Jingying, and Mrs. Qi were ambushed. The people on the roof had already slipped into the gate of the Taishou Mansion when the guards were in chaos.

He Jingying and Mrs. Qi are slender, and they only need to open the door a little bit to enter the door. He Jingying was very polite, and she closed the door smoothly after entering. So when the guards in front of the main gate came back to their senses from the commotion at the side gate, they saw only the well-closed gate, which was nothing out of the ordinary. At this time, He Jingying and Mrs. Qi had already walked up to the cloister and hung upside down on the cloister.

A group of guards walked up the cloister, and the two guards at the end of the line were just about to pass around the corner when they suddenly felt like they had been stung by bees in their necks. Before the two guards could raise their hands to cover their necks, the whole person fell softly.

After a while, He Jingying and Mrs. Qi came out with the guard's clothes. Mrs. Qi is a head taller than He Jingying, and she is just right in that dress, He Jingying is a little bigger when she wears it, but fortunately, she can't see it in the dark night.

The two turned their heads and walked in the opposite direction from the guards' patrol. After coming to Taishou Mansion once, He Jingying still remembers how to go to the study. The two of them avoided the guards, walked along the corridor for a while, and soon came to the courtyard gate of the study. He Jingying was just about to step into the courtyard door, but Mrs. Qi grabbed He Jingying: "Lord Ling, this courtyard is so strange." The courtyard was empty, and the door of the study could be seen at a glance, and if there was really something secret, how could it be arranged like this. And we have gone all the way, and there are obviously not as many guards here as in front, could it be that we are in the wrong place? ”

He Jingying was also a little puzzled, but she clearly remembered that the last time she and Xiao Lian were anxious, they rushed all the way to the study without anyone notifying. "We should be fine walking down the hallway."

I've come here, and I have to go in and find out.

He Jingying and Mrs. Qi flashed into the courtyard. There was a light in the study, but there was no sound in it. He Jingying and Mrs. Qi walked in the corridor, and although there were no guards in the corridor, they were more careful.

But along the way, there was nothing to do, and they walked to the door of the study very safely. He Jingying and Mrs. Qi glanced at each other, reached out and gently pushed open the door of the study.

As soon as Mrs. Qi pushed open a small crack in the study, she heard a soft "click".

He Jingying's intuition was not good, she stretched out her hand and pushed Mrs. Qi to the side, and she caught a glimpse of a little silver light in the study getting closer and closer to the door in front of her. She didn't have time to think, so she took out the Folding Moon Sword from her waist and blocked it, only to hear a "bang" and the tiger's mouth shook numbly. The dark arrow shot out of the pivot with great force, and if it weren't for the fact that the Moon Folding Sword originally had some toughness, I am afraid that it would have shattered immediately.

But this kind of strength still pushed He Jingying, even with her sword, to the courtyard covered with white gravel in front of the academy. There were two soft "clicks" under her feet, and He Jingying suddenly froze on the spot, and the subtle sound made He Jingying's whole scalp numb.

"Commander!"

"Don't come here!"

He Jingying calmed down, she didn't know what kind of mechanism was buried in this courtyard, but the mechanism buried in an unguarded confidential place would not be just a few cold arrows.

Dense footsteps came from outside the academy, if He Jingying continued to stand here, it would be the result of being captured, if she moved......

He Jingying gritted her teeth and looked at the study, the cardinal that could shoot a dark arrow just after opening the door had not been destroyed, if she jumped out of the courtyard like this and rushed into the study, she might be shot into a hedgehog.

Just when He Jingying was in a dilemma, there were a few slight sounds under her feet. Her instinct told her that choosing to be a hedgehog might look better than standing here and dying. Before the sounds stopped, she tiptoed herself towards the study.

In an instant, there was a "bang", and the gravel under He Jingying's feet exploded. The dark arrow in the study also shot at He Jingying. Seeing that she was either blown to pieces by gunpowder or shot by the dark arrow in front of her, He Jingying's waist tightened and was pulled up by a force.

On the top of the study corridor, two black-clothed men rushed over, one of them holding a soft whip wrapped around He Jingying's waist, dragged He Jingying up, and threw her onto the corridor.

As soon as He Jingying stood firm on the corridor, she was held by the wrist of the whip bearer. The man said coldly, "Hurry up." ”

The other man in black didn't wait for the whip bearer's command, and casually threw a spark flashed, and something directly smashed through the green tiles on the study, and exploded in the study with a "bang". Rao is that no matter how much there is a cardinal in its study, it has also been blown up by this explosion.

The firelight flashed, and the man in black dragged He Jingying into the study, and at this time, Mrs. Qi also followed.

He Jingying looked up at the man in black, and the man in black glanced at He Jingying lightly. He Jingying guessed the identity of this person, but everyone covered their faces, and it was difficult to expose it, so she had to say softly: "Thank you." ”

These two people are naturally Gongzi Yu and Jackal Yu.

Gongziyu heard He Jingying thank her, and didn't answer her, but just withdrew his gaze and looked around the study. The study was blown up by jackals, and it was a mess, and the books and papers were scattered all over the ground, and the porcelain placed in the room was not spared, and it was shattered on the ground.

Gongzi Yu said coldly: "The pursuers behind are about to catch up, why don't you hurry up and find the entrance?" ”

He Jingying instantly felt like she was being used as a gun. This man revealed the news to himself, and he was still waiting for himself to take the lead.

What's more, although he has fought with Gongziyu several times, he is also an enemy and a friend, but in essence, Gongziyu is still a person from the Northern Wei Dynasty. Whether Shen Wenji secretly built a chariot or rebelled, she knew that it was one thing, and it was another thing to let the Northern Wei spies know.

He Jingying looked at Gongziyu calmly and said, "The explosion is too messy, I can't find it." ”

Gongzi Yu raised his eyebrows and looked at He Jingying: "Then how are you going to get out?" ”

Listening to the footsteps of the guards outside, it seemed that the academy had been surrounded. He Jingying raised her head and smiled at Gongziyu: "Then I'm annoying Gongzi to do a favor." ”

Gongzi Yu's eyebrows condensed slightly: "What's the busy?" ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw He Jingying draw her sword and stab at Gongzi Yu.

ungrateful, crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, wolf-hearted dog-lungs, all unpleasant words can be smashed on He Jingying's body in an instant. But He Jingying didn't want this face at this time.

How could Gongzi Yu have expected He Jingying to defect at this time. He saw He Jingying stabbing with a sword, and the wordless fan fell from his sleeve to his hand, and just as he was about to pick up the sword that He Jingying handed to him, he saw the jackal feather on the side make a move.

Gongzi Yu didn't have time to stop the jackal, so he had to take the fan and retreat again and again, and when he took a few steps back, He Jingying also took a few steps forward, and Kankan missed the sword that the jackal feather fell.

Gongziyu took a few steps back and retreated to the edge of the study door.

Mrs. Qi saw He Jingying make a move, and saw that the two of them were neat, knowing that they would not be opponents if they were entangled, so she took off dozens of silver needles and flew towards the front door of Gongzi Yu and Jackal Yu.

Gongzi Yu and Jackal Yu dodged the silver needle and jumped backwards and fell into the courtyard. At this time, the guards also surrounded him. He Jingying hurriedly pulled Mrs. Qi to hide in the dark of the study.

Gongziyu looked at He Jingying, but he didn't expect that he had suffered such a big loss, and secretly felt funny: "Good strategy." ”

Jackal Yu trembled with anger and stared at the study, but where could He Jingying still be seen in the study. The two women were slender and easy to hide, and it was even easier to hide themselves in the chaotic study.

Gongzi Yu turned around, and the guards were already holding knives in their hands, and surrounded them tightly. The yard where he was standing had already been blown up once, the mechanism was useless, and the only thing he had to deal with now was the guards.

It's really annoying.

Gongzi Yu gently unfolded the wordless fan and sighed, "Let's fight." ”
