Chapter 361: Arrangement
Songbai glanced back at the wall that had been re-hung with calligraphy and paintings, and the previous entrance was closed.
There are many people's secrets involved here, from the royal family and nobles, to the court officials, down to the yamen guards, and the porter's housekeeper, which is no longer up to him.
Songbai arranged for someone to guard here, so he immediately left with Jiang Ming, he wanted to go back and write a letter to report the situation here to the master, and ask the master to send someone to take over.
Just when Ma Xiaotao was about to escort Jiang Ming to leave through the back door, Songbai suddenly stopped him, "Don't go through the back door, go to the front door!" ”
Ma Xiaotao looked back at Songbai blankly, very puzzled, aren't the back doors all their reinforcements? The back door should be safer, why do adults say to go through the front door.
Songbai also walked to the back door and suddenly remembered that he had just seen the name of the general of the Shu garrison in the secret room, he did not open the drawer about him at that time, and there was no way to know whether he was Jiang Ming's person.
"Your Excellency?"
This kind of thing is better to believe in it than to believe in it.
Songbai glanced at Jiang Ming, whose hands were tied behind Ma Xiaotao's hands, time waits for no one, and if it is late, there will be changes, Jiang Ming must be escorted back to the capital as soon as possible.
Songbai, who calmed down, knew that the front door was not safe either, especially with Jiang Ming, their goal was too big.
It's a gamble, but it's a good arrangement.
Songbai gathered everyone first, and then arranged for three people, including Ma Xiaotao, to stay and guard Jiang Ming, leaving a team of people to guard the courtyard, and then led the team to press Jiang Ming's henchmen out of the back door.
This is Jiang Ming's hiding place, and it is not conspicuous to leave someone to guard it.
Matsubai led the men back from the way they came, his hand on the hilt of his sword all the way, watching his surroundings vigilantly, but fortunately nothing happened along the way, and they made it back to their yard.
It wasn't until after entering the courtyard that Songbai breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing this, Wu Yi quietly walked over, "My lord, what should Jiang Ming do?" ”
"I have my own opinion on this matter, you notify me and prepare to leave immediately." Although nothing happened on the way back, Songbai did not let his guard down because of this.
As long as the person is not sent back to the capital and completes the handover, his heart will not be relaxed.
"Yes."
Looking at the serious appearance on Songbai's face, Wu Yi also realized the seriousness of the matter and hurriedly went to inform him.
After Wu Yi left, Songbai glanced back at the direction of the courtyard where Jiang Ming had been hiding before, he had already told Ma Xiaotao to stay there until the next day before leaving.
If his suspicion was wrong, then it would be fine, it was just a delay of some time.
But if his guess was correct, then after he left, the man would definitely send someone to hunt him down, and leave again the next day, leaving them with enough time.
After thinking about it, Songbai retracted his gaze, turned around and went to the study, and sent the news here back to the capital.
Watching the pigeon disappear into the sky with the secret letter, Songbai took his sword and walked out.
In the courtyard was a team that had been assembled a long time ago.
"Let's go!"
"Yes."
As soon as Songbai gave the order, the assembled team escorted the prisoner cart away.
Before, Songbai and they broke into Shu and sneaked into Shu, in order to hide their whereabouts in Shu and not let Jiang Ming and others notice, their actions have always been cautious.
But this time it was different, they escorted the prisoner car away, and it was definitely not possible to leave quietly, and now they just arrested Jiang Ming and his henchmen, and no one knew how many of them were in Shu.
Thinking that they should already know about the raid of the nest at this moment, if they knew that their people had fallen into their hands, they would definitely come back to rob the prisoners, and I am afraid that the road will not be peaceful.
Soon Songbai led the people to the gate of the city, and he handed the guards the waist cards that he had prepared a long time ago, and the guards checked them and let them go happily.
Seeing Songbai and the others disappear at the gate of the city, a blue figure turned around and ran towards the city.
"Be vigilant and beware of someone taking prisoners." Songbai said with a frown.
"Yes."
The team drove along the official road all the way forward, and after driving for about an hour, the sun above their heads was getting bigger and bigger, and the people who were shining on it were sweating profusely, and then Songbai stopped the team, "Okay, correct the time of a stick of incense, and then go on the road after a stick of incense."
Each squad leader arranged for people to alternately guard the surroundings. ”
"Yes."
Hearing him say this, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief, and walked for an hour, so tired that they were not tired, but it was too sunny, and this Shu land was much hotter than the capital.
Seeing that the people around him began to relax and rest, Songbai walked to the prisoner car with a water bladder and knocked on the prisoner car with a water bladder, and Liu Song in the car couldn't help it for a long time.
Although he didn't have to walk, the sun above his head was so hot that he felt like a fish that had been dehydrated and was about to be burned to death by the scorching sun.
Hearing the sound, he looked in the direction it was coming from.
Seeing him looking at him, Songbai glanced at his dry and flaky lips and threw the water bladder in his hand to him, "Drink." ”
Liu Song took the water bladder, directly pulled out the stopper, stuffed it directly into his mouth, and drank it with a clatter.
Songbai didn't look at him again after sending the water bladder, and turned to leave.
"Alert!" Wu Yi pulled out his long knife and glared ahead.
Hearing Wu Yi's words, everyone who had been resting immediately got up, drew their weapons, and looked around vigilantly.
Songbai's brows furrowed, he looked around and didn't find anything abnormal, "Wu Yi, what's wrong?" ”
"My lord, there seems to be someone in the grass over there." Wu Yi stared closely at the grass not far away as he spoke.
Songbai followed his line of sight, but he didn't find anything unusual, but Songbai didn't let go of his suspicions because of this.
He took out his bow and arrow from the horseback bag on the side, pulled the bow and squinted at the grass, suddenly his eyes narrowed, his hand loosened, and the arrow in his hand flew out directly, and the arrow was poured directly into the grass, and there was nothing unusual.
"I guess I'm mistaken, right?" Someone around whispered.
But Songbai's heart did not relax because of this, he looked at Wu Yi, "Are you sure you saw someone just now?" ”
"My lord, I'm sure." Wu Yi recalled it and said with certainty.
"Feng Ning, you take the three teams over to investigate." Song Bai looked at the grass not far away with a calm face, Wu Yi has practiced flying knives since he was a child, and his eyesight is the best in the entire criminal department.
Feng Ning saw that Songbai's face was so serious, he didn't say anything, ordered a good person, and led people to the direction of the grass.
But at this moment, a vision suddenly appeared, and twenty or thirty people suddenly jumped up in the grass, wearing black scarves and holding steel knives, and rushed directly at them.
The first to bear the brunt was Feng Ning's team, but fortunately they had been vigilant before, so they didn't panic too much when they saw this situation.
Instead, he directly raised a knife and confronted them, and after Songbai arranged for someone to escort the prisoner car, he also joined the battle with someone.
