"Wait." Seeing Leng Linjiang impatiently pushing the door, Yao Qi hurriedly snorted, stopped his restless hand, and continued to look out through the crack in the door.

When the two men came out, the door was wide open, and the room was in full view.

Although there are also drinks and food in the room, there is very little movement, and there is no trace of the flower lady staying.

In this way, these two people are not like ordinary men who come to have fun, but more like hiding in the city, looking for a place where people come and go to hide their whereabouts, and plan some ulterior things.

It seems that these two people are going to leave the workshop, but now that there is a curfew at this hour, and the two of them do not spend the night in the workshop, then they either have another place to live in the Pingkang Fang, or they are not afraid of the night and have the ability to settle down.

Yao Qi squinted, turned his head to look at Leng Linjiang, and his gaze moved and fell on Bao Cheng.

Bao Cheng took a step back: "What are you going to do?" ”

Yao Qi bent his lips and smiled: "The person outside has seen me and Leng Linjiang, the two of us can't show up rashly, Bao Cheng, you go and follow the long and strong outside." She pointed to Wang Cong's face outside along the crack in the door: "Do you see clearly, it's him, his name is Wang Cong, he came out of the Yumen Army, his kung fu is not weak, you have to be careful when you keep an eye on it, don't let him find you, you can't beat him, you remember to leave marks along the way, it's the kind I taught you before." ”

Bao Cheng glanced out, what kind of toughness is that, that's too tough, he said desperately: "I, can I refuse?" ”

Yao Qi raised his eyebrows: "Guess." ”

Leng Linjiang also smiled lowly, and untied a sign and stuffed it to Bao Cheng: "Here, this will already be a curfew, you hold this brand, no one dares to embarrass you." ”

Bao Cheng sighed in despair, let go of his ingenuity, and suddenly opened the door, startling the two people opposite, but he staggered and turned his head to the closed door as if he didn't see it: "Mother's group of animals, beasts, pour, pour Lao Tzu wine, Lao Tzu, ......wow" He leaned against the wall and bent down, making a retching appearance, and vomited a few times before stopping, scolding and going downstairs.

Out of the door of the workshop, he found a shadow with a back man to squat, waiting for the rabbit, waiting for the sturdy man to appear.

After looking at the crack in the door for a long time, Wang Cong and the man in beautiful brocade clothes went downstairs one after another, Yao Qi turned his head to Leng Linjiang and said: "I'll follow the other person, his kung fu is not weak, I will leave a mark along the way, you go to Han Shizi's mansion and tell him, and ask him to send someone to follow the mark to pick up me and Bao Cheng." ”

Leng Linjiang responded with a solemn expression, watched Yao Qi open the door, swept out lightly, and bowed to Sun Ying's only bow: "Let's go too." ”

Sun Ying asked in a worried whisper, "My lord, Miss Ah Qi will not be in danger, right?" ”

Leng Linjiang smiled: "I'm still more worried that Bao Lingtong will be beaten to death." ”

Sun Ying opened his mouth, why didn't he see the slightest hint of worry.

In the middle of the night in March, the moon and stars are scarce, the breath of grass and trees is fresh but strong, a layer of light mist lingers on the ground, the mottled blue brick ground is impregnated with pieces of clear water, the lanterns hanging under the eaves are swaying lightly with the wind, and the red light of the stars is reflected in the water, looking from afar, it is like the street lanterns of the Shangyuan Festival, and the lights are brilliant.

The clatter of horses' hooves was particularly harsh in the night, approaching and then moving away.

"My lord, this is marked." An inner guard hurriedly turned back

Come, whisper back.

Han Changdui turned over and dismounted, walked to the corner of the wall very quickly, and looked in the direction of the guard's finger.

There is a mark carved into the wall tiles, one end is very light and the other is very heavy, and the middle is undulating and irregular, looking like a child's random carving.

Han Changdui glanced at the mark, raised his whip and pointed to the west: "Over there." ”

With that, he rode his horse and chased after him.

The guards immediately rolled over and followed closely behind.

In the dark and dreary night, there was a rapid and messy sound of horses' hooves, the horses flew through the night, bringing out a cold wind, the lantern under the porch shook violently a few times, and a light fell to the ground with a snap, the candle was crooked, and the flame licked the red veil, and in an instant the lantern was swallowed up and turned into a ball of fire.

Turning around a wall, it was another similar mark, but the undulation in the middle had changed slightly.

Han Changdu's heart was determined, looking at the marks on this wall, he did it very steadily and peacefully, and he didn't see any panic, obviously Yao Qi didn't encounter any danger.

When Leng Linjiang came to report the news, he was really startled, and then heard his description of the appearance of another gorgeous man, he was sure that that person was Xie Liangmao, he guessed that this person would eventually enter Beijing, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly, and he had something to do with Wang Cong.

It's just that I don't know if this person is Wang Cong, who he only met after entering Beijing, or if he was colluded before.

Thinking of this, he waved his horsewhip more quickly, and found a few more markers one after another, and came to the west gate of Gude Fang.

He raised his eyebrows and motioned for He Zhenfu to knock on the door, while he stood in the shadows with a horsewhip in his arms, watching the guards probe outside the one-man high wall.

The light and shadow shook brightly in all directions, but after a moment, He Zhenfu knocked on the door of the workshop and showed the sign of the Internal Health Division, which frightened the soul of the Fang Ding to scatter, like pouring beans from a bamboo tube, and said everything that should be said and what should not be said.

What did he pour a few more mouthfuls of yellow soup today, and he was a little confused, and the door was closed for a moment.

Another Fang Ding who was with him went to the Song Widow in the east of Fang to drink.

Anyway, it's a hammer in the east and a stick in the west, and He Zhenfu is dizzy.

He was so angry that he raised his knife and drank a word, and Fang Ding was suddenly so frightened that he sat on the ground, and a puddle of yellow, orange and orange water spilled to the ground along his trousers, and finally he trembled his lips and said that no one had come in through the door after the curfew.

This is said very cleverly, it's not that no one has ever come in, but no one has ever come in through the door, he is just a man who guards the door, regardless of whether anyone has come in through the door, as for whether anyone has come in from the wall, it is the errand of the man in charge of patrolling, and it is not under his control.

Hearing this, Han Changdui sneered.

These fangmen look honest and honest, but in fact, they are all cunning and cunning, and they are so slick that people can't catch the slightest mistake, even if there is an omission, it is not worth mentioning a small mistake, even if they are punished, it is not painful.

He raised his eyebrows: "Press him down first, and the door of this place will be temporarily taken over by the internal guard." ”

He Zhenfu left in response.

This is, the internal guard who checked the wall of the fang also found something, trotted all the way to Han Changdu, and saluted: "My lord, I found a footprint there." ”

Han Changdu's gaze froze.

A footprint, a complete footprint.

He didn't know much about Xie Liangmao,

But when I saw that side, I took a cursory look and found that this person must have kung fu, but he didn't know the depth, but even if the kung fu was shallow, it would not leave a complete footprint when he climbed over the wall of the square more than one person high.

As for Yao Qi, not to mention how high the wall is for one person, or how high the two are, it is impossible for her to leave traces.

Thinking of this, his steps became more hurried.

The footprints were on the loose dirt at the top of the wall, and the few bushes of young grass that had just emerged had been trampled down.

Han Changdui climbed forward and carefully examined the footprint.

He squinted, smiled dumbly, turned over from the wall, and commanded He Zhenfu.

The crowd obeyed the order and rode on foot, and the fish with very light steps rushed in, and the sound was faint like a few rolls on the ground with the wind.

Sure enough, it wasn't long before an internal guard found a new mark on the wall.

Following the mark, the group hurried silently to the door of a mansion.

He Zhenfu and a few internal guards jumped up, climbed a tree outside the mansion, and looked inside over the high courtyard wall.

It was pitch black in the mansion, except for a few lights under the eaves.

In the deepest part of the mansion, there is a small two-story building with lights on, but it is too far away to see what the people inside are doing.

He Zhenfu jumped down from the tree and saluted: "My lord, this mansion has three courtyards, and it looks no different from ordinary mansions from the outside, but my subordinates have taken a closer look, and most of the mansions are two- and three-story pavilions, with no doors and no windows on the top floor, and only supported by columns, which looks like it is used for lookout." ”

Han Changdui squinted, how could ordinary people build pavilions for lookouts, the place where Yao Qi disappeared in the end is here, I am afraid that this is the place where Xie Liangji settled in the capital.

Just when Han Changdui was thinking about whether to knock on the door or climb over the wall to enter, a noisy and noisy loud noise sounded in the mansion, and the lights were lit up one after another, and in an instant, the entire mansion was as bright as day.

"There are thieves, there are thieves, there are thieves."

"Over there, to the west, quick, quick."

"Quick, lock the door of the house, don't let the thieves go."

These voices, high and low, some sharp and some fierce, pierced the night, and frightened the candles of the few nearby mansions.

Han Changdui's heart sank, and he also turned over the tree, and saw the lights in the courtyard, all of which were gathering towards the courtyard wall closest to him.

He hurriedly jumped down, turned his head to look, pointed to the curved alley that turned a corner in the distance, and ordered in a loud voice: "Retreat to that curved alley, don't let people find out." ”

Many internal guards pressed their steps and quickly retreated.

Han Changdu instructed He Zhenfu: "You stay and answer me." ”

Before he had finished speaking, he jumped up and down the wall, and without making any stop, he crossed the night and broke into the messy mansion.

He stopped at the top of a tree in the mansion, and his whole body melted into the great shadow of the canopy, and his eyes burned to look at the noise of sounds.

The candles grew brighter and brighter, more and more, and poured like a tide towards the western wall.

He looked at a few trees in the distance, and saw a few very slight ups and downs in the distance, and with a lift of his lips, he flew and jumped over.
