On the way back, Xin Qiji was actually anxious, but his steps were still calm, and his face was as pale as water, because he knew very well in his heart that in fact, the other party was coming for him, Xin Zhi was just a bait, as long as he was okay here, there was a high probability that Xin Zhi would still be able to live, if he Xin Qiji also fell into it, Xin Zhi would really die.

Xin Qiji sighed in his heart and said in a low voice: "It would be nice if Uncle Zhong was here." ”

……

Bianjing, Fan Tower.

Fanlou at night is the world's first prosperous place, even the most prosperous restaurant in Lin'an can not be compared, but the people who come in and out have changed their faces, and there are many fewer Han people, while the high-rollers dressed as Jurchens are standing for the most part, which makes people feel emotional.

Shao Jimei set up a luxurious room in Fan Lou tonight to entertain a Meng'an of the Jin Dynasty, that is, a thousand commanders.

Shao Jimei will come to do something, and under his hospitality, Meng An soon laughed with him, and the so-called guests and hosts were happy.

It was cold and snowy outside, but the house was warm like spring, and looking out of the window, the whole Bianjing was already shrouded in a white expanse.

Shao Ji Meizhi was complacent, he was originally a small leader of the Shandong Rebel Army, and he was really average, so as soon as Zhang Anguo found him, he immediately agreed to cooperate, and he made a great effort in the process of murdering Geng Jing.

Although Jin Bing treats the Han people as dogs, there are also classes when they are dogs, and Shao Jimei is unwilling to be a dog who can only eat leftovers, so he actively seeks to enter the ranks.

So he came to Bianjing, went around, and finally invited this Meng An, who had real power, and now it seems that his things can be completed.

Meng An took the courtesan he invited with a lot of money to go to live happily, Shao Jimei opened the window, looked at the magnificent rivers and mountains, and had a big heart.

Shao Jimei smiled softly and said in a low voice: "Zhang Anguo, Zhang Anguo, you are the head worker, so what, the rafters that come out are rotten first, how can Xin Qijian be provoked, although I am not well-known, but I am living well, but your head has been cut off, ha." ”

"Not necessarily, you're happy too soon."

There was a voice that sounded in his ears, soft, but to his ears it was like a thunderbolt.

Shao Jimei's heart was broken, and she shouted heartbreakingly: "Someone, someone, there are assassins!" ”

Immediately, the door was rushed open, and more than a dozen guards rushed in with knives, and said to Shao Jimei: "Big brother, where is the assassin!" ”

Shao Jimei hurriedly walked away from the window, and said with palpitations: "I don't know where it is, but there must be an assassin." ”

The guards quickly swept the room, but no one was in sight.

Everyone looked at Shao Jimei suspiciously.

Shao Jimei breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Maybe I drank too much and hallucinated......"

The guard also breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Big brother, in fact, you don't need to be so nervous, the brothers are here, even if they are masters, how can they resist us." ”

Shao Jimei smiled: "Don't relax, how did Zhang Anguo die, you saw it with your own eyes, Xin Qiji's guy is scheming, it's not easy to deal with." ”

The guard smiled: "Xin Qiji has already run to the south, and now give him two burdens, and he will definitely not dare to run to Bianjing." ”

Shao Jimei smiled and nodded: "This is the best, you have also worked hard, ask someone to call the cousin, serve two tables of banquets, and you have a good meal." ”

The guards were overjoyed: "Thank you, big brother, ha, this is Fan Lou, the big guy has a mouthful!" ”

Shao Jimei nodded with a smile, and suddenly her eyes froze: "Aren't there nine of our brothers, how can there be ten people in this room?" ”

The guards counted each other and exclaimed, "Who is it!" ”

One of the bearded guards raised his head and grinned, "You don't even let me have a full meal, it's not a pity for you to die." ”

Shao Jimei was shocked.

Suddenly, a cloud of sword light burst out from the guards, and the guards fell down one after another, and there was no one under this person's sword!

Shao Jimei retreated again and again, wanting to rush out of the door, but the person was ghostly blocking the door, and under the illumination of the light, Shao Jimei could see the person's face clearly.

Shao Jimei pointed at this person and exclaimed, "You...... You...... Are you the family member next to Xin Qiji? It seems to be called Xin Zhong, right? ”

The bearded man smiled and said: "General Shao has a very good memory, even I, a subordinate, can remember, no wonder I can get along in the Jin Country." ”

Shao Jimei said nervously: "Xin Zhong, you and I have no grievances in the past and no enemies in the near future, what are you doing with me?" ”

The bearded man smiled: "Isn't there any hatred, General Shao shouldn't think about it?" ”

Shao Jimei's eyes gurgled wildly, swallowed a little saliva and said: "It was Zhang Anguo's idea to murder Geng Jing, he has already given the head, and I am not the mastermind, besides, what does Geng Jing's marshal have to do with you, do you say it, why take such a big risk to assassinate me, a little person?" ”

The bearded man shook his long sword and said with a smile: "You General Shao is not a small person, what you have done has changed the fate of many people, such as me, I can obviously be a subordinate who eats and waits for death, it is you who destroyed my iron rice bowl and forced me to sleep in the open now, do you think you deserve to die?" ”

Shao Jimei's eyes lit up and said: "If it's for this reason, it's very simple, you come to be my guard, eat fragrant and drink spicy, if you don't want to be an official, I can also recommend you to go up, Meng'an, who just had dinner with me, has real power, what do you think?" ”

The bearded man suddenly became a little impatient, and when his hand shook, there was a white light, and then Shao Jimei covered his throat, revealing an incredible look.

The bearded man sneered: "Dog-like things, dare to have this kind of thought, speaking of which there are no people on Da Lang's side, I have been wandering outside for so long, I should go back, Da Lang is not a person who can take care of people, the little young master should probably suffer a little." ”

There were a large number of footsteps outside, the bearded man jumped lightly to the window, jumping down from the building dozens of meters away, and there were people outside who were casually looking at this side, and couldn't help muttering: "On a snowy day, how can there be such a big bird?" ”

……

Jiangyin City at night is quiet, but there is an undercurrent surging, countless spies are surging in the night, and news from all over the place gathers at Zhao Zhongyan's stay.

The force Zhao Zhongyan said was the secret agent of the Southern Song Dynasty, and the secret agent in his hand was specially used to monitor Jiangyin City, which was the frontier position of the war with the Jin State.

The reason why Zhao Zhongyan dared to use the secret agent to detect Xin Zhen's whereabouts was because Xin Zhi was his disciple, and on the other hand, Zhao Zhongyan also suspected that it might be the chief official of Jiangyin City targeted by the secret agents of the Jin State.

If the secret agents of the Jin State came to target Xin Qiji, held Xin Zhi hostage, and then hijacked Xin Qiji, and made Xin Qiji treason, so that the Jin State could attack the hinterland of the Great Song Dynasty with Jiangyin as the forward position.

Near Wangjiang Tower, suddenly there was a fire flashing, someone shouted loudly to catch the thief, and then the screams sounded, the house began to catch fire, and the nearby residents were all awakened, but no one dared to come out, and when the fire was big, someone came out to extinguish the fire;

In the bamboo forest by the riverside, there was a sound of scolding, and then the sound of swords and swords rang out, and the screams came one after another, and after a while, they returned to silence;

The Chamber of Commerce in the north of the city suddenly caught fire, and it was quiet inside, no one made a sound, and it was not until the flames were completely engulfed that there was a desperate voice coming out;

…… This night was a long night for Jiangyin.

Zhao Zhongyan looked tired and asked, "Isn't there any news yet?" ”

The face was shrouded in shadows: "Not yet, we have checked the head snake, no, the secret agents of the Jin Kingdom have uprooted us, and we have not found it, and the pavilion, we are also staring, and no one has passed, my lord, could it be something done by some small people?" ”

Zhao Zhongyan said with a smile: "No matter how you say it, Xin Youan is also the actual controller of a military state, ordinary people don't dare to offend, who dares to disadvantage him?"

Also, it's been more than a month since Xin Zhi was defeated by my door, and the news has probably spread, what if someone wants to target me? ”

The man looked up in shock: "My lord! ”

Zhao Zhongyan waved his hand and said, "Keep exploring, be sure to rescue Xin Zhi for me, this is the first task!" ”

"Yes, sir!"

The man was silently hidden in the darkness.

An anxious look gradually appeared on Zhao Zhongyan's face, and he whispered in his mouth: "Strange, how can there be no news, who is it, what is his purpose!" ”
