Chapter 17: The Ghost Rider Dispatches
"At this time, I kind of miss Xibao, he once made a human tooth, and said that he could know something." Zhao Zili said that in order to investigate human trafficking, the slave market must be indispensable.
When Wang Ruoshui and Shui Rou were investigating outside, Zhao Zili was also practicing martial arts seriously, and now he can hold on to the plum blossom pile for half an hour without falling.
"Lord Wang, don't worry, Ruoshui and they already have some eyebrows, and the two princesses have also sent people out, I believe there will be news soon." Gao Xiang looked at Zhao Zili who was practicing martial arts and was also deeply pleased, it seems that after the life and death crisis some time ago, the prince has indeed grown too much.
"Father will definitely not just let a few of us investigate this matter, I think there must be someone else secretly investigating."
Gao Xiang thought for a while and said: "What the prince said is right, if His Majesty wants to investigate secretly, it must be the people of the Plum Blossom Nineteen Pavilion." ”
Zhao Zili also nodded, the emperor's internal guard was no secret for a long time, maybe the black-clothed people at his door were also from the Plum Blossom Pavilion.
On the other hand, Wang Ruoshui and Shui Rou are still following the middleman found by Wang Ruoshui before entering Beijing, this person is very cunning, he has been eating, drinking and having fun in the past few days, scurrying around, as if he is looking to see if someone is following him, be careful and abnormal.
After making sure he was safe, he finally made a move.
"Sister Shui, this person has been going around for so many days, and today is finally different." Wang Ruoshui and Shui Rou hid in the shadows, staring at him all the time, both of them were not weak in martial arts, and they were hidden and not discovered.
"Yes, this place has been here with the prince before, and I have bought some slaves, but the prince is kind-hearted and treats him as a normal person, and now they are all very grateful to the prince."
"I see, the prince is just a good prince." Wang Ruoshui admired Zhao Zili even more.
"Attention, someone's coming."
The intermediary looked around carefully again, and after making sure that no one was there, he took out a whistle and blew a specific frequency, and soon several men in black came out of the shadows.
"It's not been discovered, it seems that someone has been on top of us recently, and the master's business must not be delayed." The man in black asked.
"Don't worry, I have been in the capital for several days after I came to the capital, and I only dared to come to the joint after I was sure that it was safe, who would dare to delay the master's affairs." The middleman felt that he was so careful, there would definitely be no problem, but they didn't expect that someone was still eyeing him in the shadows.
"That's good, this batch of eighteen virgins are ready, the master has reached a critical juncture, and success or failure is here." The men in black were a little anxious, it seemed that their master was doing something terrible.
"Don't worry, I've transported the virgin to a stronghold outside the city, and tomorrow I will enter the city in disguise, and the city gate will be fine."
"Well, the south gate guarding the city tomorrow is our people, as soon as the city gate is opened, you will enter the city, so as not to encounter too many people and accidents."
After the man in black finished speaking, he separated from the middleman, Shui Rou and Wang Ruoshui decided to divide the troops into two ways, Wang Ruoshui followed the middleman, Shui Rou was familiar with the terrain of the capital and followed the man in black.
At the same time, the information he heard was passed on to Zhao Zili and the two princesses.
"South City Gate, Qian Bin, I can't imagine that even the soldiers and horses in the capital have their people." Zhao Zifeng looked at the letter in his hand, a little incredulous, "Come on, send a message to the Ninth Princess, and ask her to organize the Jianghu people she knows to go outside the south city gate early tomorrow morning, as long as the city gate is open to create chaos." ”
Receiving Zhao Zifeng's message, Zhao Ziyu smiled: "There is still a way for the sixth sister." At the same time, without delay, we immediately contacted the staff.
Zhou Bugui also found Qian Bin at the same time, although there are not many large goods coming in and out of the South Gate in recent months, but they are very regular, and they immediately began to suspect him, and the wear and tear of the armor of the Nancheng Terracotta Division is a little more, and there are hundreds of pairs of less in the past year.
"According to the previous rules, they may have to make moves in the past two days, and it is likely that they are disguised as people from the Terracotta Division to transport the population." Zhou Bugui sent a part of the people to stare at Qian Bin, and at the same time checked the people behind Qian Bin.
"Pavilion master, the people below have come to report that the female guard of King Song has left the city, and she is still following a person."
"Oh, it seems that they have also found something, Ah Li took two people to follow her, report anything at any time, don't act rashly."
Ali nodded, and led two people to follow Shui Rou outside the city.
Zhao Zili was resting, listening to Gao Xiang's report to him, and said, "Outside the city? There are absolutely no bandits around the Imperial City, and it is likely that they are disguised as the soldiers and horses who patrol outside the city, and tell the Netherworld to let him follow secretly, and act immediately when encountering danger, while paying attention to the people of the Plum Blossom Pavilion. ”
Raising soldiers for a thousand days and using soldiers for a while, the ghost was also very excited after receiving the order, and said to his subordinates: "Soldiers, the king of Song has given us such a generous treatment, now it is time for us to repay, now there are thieves who sell girls The crime is unforgivable, and the soldiers will kill the enemy with me." ”
"Kill, kill, kill."
Eighteen horsemen mounted war horses and quietly appeared outside the city, and no one noticed them.
At the same time, Zhao Zili asked Leng Feng to go out of the city to pick up Shui Rou, and told him that the Netherworld was also nearby and could support at any time, which made Shui Rou very happy.
"Shui Rou, how did you find it?" Leng Feng asked.
"Well, as the prince said, there is a small military camp a hundred miles outside the city, it looks like it has just been set up in camp, and those girls should be hiding inside." Shui Rou is familiar with the military, and it is obviously abnormal for a military camp to appear in this capital for hundreds of miles.
"Sure enough, by the way, I saw a few people on the way to Chao, and the clothes should be from the Plum Blossom Pavilion." Cold Wind spotted Ali and them.
"It's okay, the prince said, the purpose of the Plum Blossom Pavilion and ours should be the same, let's go, if those people run away, it will be troublesome."
Leng Fen and Shui Rou came to the vicinity of the barracks, and Ali and a few others also came to the vicinity, but they tacitly did not disturb each other.
In the barracks, the middleman had already returned, and ordered his men to patrol well, and he himself went into a tent.
"I can't imagine that these people have been specially trained, not ordinary people." Shui Rou could see at a glance that these people had been trained for a long time and were not ordinary people.
In the tent, the middleman took off his coat, looked at the people who were drinking and eating meat on the side, and said, "Chu madman, drink less, there is something to do tomorrow." ”
The Chu madman glanced at it, put down the wine and meat in his hand, and said, "I know, I said Feng Luo, you can make a lot of money on this trip, this is much more comfortable than robbing houses before." ”
"Well, this time the master's reward will not be less, this is also the last time, we have earned enough money, in the future, wash our hands in the golden basin, buy a land and be a landlord comfortably." Feng Lu is still imagining a bright future, but he doesn't know that danger is coming.
"What to do, it's not early." Leng Fen saw that the sky was getting darker, and it was time to take action.
"Wait a minute, when it's completely dark, send a signal to the Netherworld, and you can't let the people of the Plum Blossom Pavilion see their appearance."
Leng Feng nodded, quietly hid his figure and found the Nether, and said: "Brother You, when it is completely night, you will see the opportunity to sneak attack, Shui Rou and I will also act together, and the people of the Plum Blossom Pavilion nearby, be careful not to reveal your identity when you act." ”
"No problem, these shrimp soldiers and crabs will not be enough for us to stuff our teeth." The Nether is confident in their ghost rides, and night raids are what they do best.
After a few hours, the sky was already completely dark, and the dark clouds obscured the moon as if to herald the coming of a slaughter.
Feng Lu walked out of the tent, and after nightfall, he was always a little uneasy, so he called a subordinate and asked, "Are you still obedient?" Is there anything unusual in the vicinity? ”
"Lord Hui, they are all quiet and scared, the brothers will patrol the vicinity, even if there is no abnormality, there is not a single bird flying around."
Listening to the reports of his subordinates, Feng Lu was finally relieved, the reason why he chose to hide in the dense forest was for safety, and if someone approached the birds, it would be the best alarm.
It's just that he doesn't know that Shui Rou also knows all about these things, and she has already done more than that, and there is a special medicine that stuns the birds.
"From my lord, you can see that there seem to be people moving in the distance, it is cavalry, and it seems that there are not many of them." Ah Li's subordinates discovered the approaching Netherworld, and Ah Li was very surprised where the cavalry came from, and he couldn't see the origin at all.
"Strange, looking at the number of dozens, how do you want to raid those hundreds of people?" There are hundreds of soldiers with armor in the valley, and hundreds of people without armor.
Yan Yun's eighteen horsemen all wore masks and black cloaks, and the horses on their legs were also pitch black, and they looked like black ghosts from a distance.
And he also noticed that the water was soft and the cold wind was coming towards him.
"In front of you are the adults of the Plum Blossom Pavilion, in the Lower Song Palace." Shui Rou was worried that after a while, Ah Li would find out that the relationship with the Netherworld would be better than taking the initiative to join Ah Li and clear the suspicion.
"The deputy pavilion master of the first pavilion under the Xia, Ah Li, may I ask what is the matter?" He was a little surprised by Shui Rou's sudden arrival.
"It turned out to be Lord Ah Li, are those cavalry in the shadows the men and horses of the Plum Blossom Pavilion?"
Ah Li was stunned for a moment, thinking that this was what these cavalry had to do with the Song Palace, but it seemed that he was mistaken, and then said: "No, I don't know what the origin is, let's observe it first." ”
Leng Feng mended the knife at this time and said: "Sneaky, could it be that black eats black." ”
Ah Li thought about it, now it is no secret that King Song and the two princesses are investigating human trafficking, is it true that the other party is really going to eat black: "It's easy to judge, if there is a real fight, whether these cavalry can survive is still a question, even if they survive, if they take those girls away, it will definitely be black and black." ”
"Sure enough, it's the Plum Blossom Pavilion." The water is soft and the cold wind is admiring on the side.
Ah Li is also very useful, the big thing still depends on them, and it is very good that these two guards can find out here.
Suddenly, his men reminded: "Look, those cavalry are dispatched. ”
