The name of that village is Baota Town, and the name of the village has a history of more than 500 years, and since the Ming Dynasty, there have been villagers who have settled here.

The ninth princess thought that as long as the person was still there, she would definitely be able to find out.

If it were all that simple, it would be easy to do.

I didn't say anything more, and let the Nine Princesses command the large army to advance, take a carpet search, and sweep through Pagoda Town.

The death of the seventh father-in-law made many people in the capital silent.

No one could have imagined that the underworld banner that the Seventh Gonggong held so high would also fall.

This seems to be a signal that whoever blocks the way of the big man will be kicked away.

Signals from drones show that halfway through the search, at least 70 families have been turned upside down.

In a few more hours, the entire Pagoda Town will be searched, and the Nine Princesses will die.

I opened my laptop and found the painting that had become the focal point.

Any artist knows the famous painting "The Last Supper", and the performance of the traitor in the painting was spurned by the world.

If that painting is also compared to Huaxia's "The Last Supper", the great painter Chrysostom said that no matter who is a traitor, it will cause an uproar.

The focus of the drone suddenly focused on a single courtyard in the southwest corner of Pagoda Town, and the footage showed a white off-road vehicle suddenly starting and rushing out of the courtyard.

When the people of the Nine Princesses received the news, they immediately approached the courtyard.

Of course, this is just a ploy to divert the tiger from the mountain, I ordered the drones to divide into two teams, four tracking off-road vehicles, and four to stay in place and keep an eye on the yard.

Before, I always suspected that Ma Guifei was hiding the great painter.

Today, that speculation is faltering.

Next to the ancient aqueduct in the southwest of the village, the Nine Princesses' men stopped the off-road vehicle and dragged four men in black out of it.

After comparison, it was the person sent by Ma Guifei to escort the great painter.

My heart suddenly opened up, these people were arrested, which can only prove that the great painter is in Pagoda Town.

The courtyard was very quiet, the doors and windows were closed, and there was no one in sight.

The drone was a little careless, descended several times, and almost touched the eaves of the house.

The camera scans the inside of the doors and windows, and there is no one inside.

The subordinate who operated the drone reported: "There is no one inside, can you rush in and search?" ”

I hesitated and didn't agree.

At that time, there were three cars escorting the great painter, and if they were fully loaded, there were at least twelve to fifteen people.

Removing the four who have just been caught, there are at least a dozen more people.

I asked everyone to stay still, not to be in a hurry, just waiting for the turtle to be caught in the urn.

Strangely, a few hours later, the Nine Princesses' people searched the remaining courtyards, but found nothing.

The only gain from this search operation was the four people and one car.

The ninth princess got into the command car, angry, full of anger, snapped, and slapped the walkie-talkie on the table in front of me.

"Ye Tian, you did a good thing!"

I brewed two cups of instant coffee and placed one of them in front of her.

"You said that the great painter is here, and Concubine Ma sent me to reinforce me. As a result, he was not there at all, and he was busy in vain. You say, who will bear the guilt of intelligence mistakes? ”

Her style of doing things is no different from before.

Ma Guifei sent her to take over the territory of the Antarctic Immortal, and everyone was not convinced, which was understandable.

"Concubine Ma is very anxious - the seventh prince was assassinated, there was chaos in the capital, and the Eight Sages were to blame, who will be responsible? It's not you, it's not me, it's Ma Guifei. So, Ninth Princess, don't be impatient, wait for further orders from Concubine Ma! ”

I am not in a hurry, I always know where I am, and I must not let the emperor not be in a hurry and the eunuch is in a hurry, and I am out of proportion.

"You're also responsible—"

The Ninth Princess pointed at me, her face full of suspicion.

I'm actually waiting for news from all sides, not only from Concubine Ma's orders, but also from all the other factions in the capital to act, they are all responsible for the affairs of the Seventh Father-in-law, and every force is ready to move.

After all, the Nine Princesses were in charge of the territory of the Antarctic Immortals, which was a dangerous signal for anyone.

They probably felt that since there was a vacant territory, all the forces should be divided equally, rather than directly designated.

I looked at the Ninth Princess, and sighed secretly in my heart, she couldn't understand Ma Guifei's hard work at all, she jumped out everywhere to make trouble, and provoked me, if someone else didn't give her face, she would be very ugly.

"Ye Tian, give me a time limit, when will Concubine Ma pass the order?"

For this unreasonable request, I can only laugh and laugh haha: "I'm not Ma Guifei, when she gives the order, that's her business, and it has nothing to do with me." ”

Outside, the drone movement has stopped, and the large army has gathered troops and is preparing to go back, and the search for Pagoda Town has come to an end.

"Ye Tian, what a failure, I have never been so sloppy in the past, so many people have been dispatched, and I can't find a great painter, a good big living person, can I just disappear like this?"

When I looked at the map, the ancient aqueduct that ran through the town of Pagoda was said to have been able to bring water from the south to the palace a long time ago, and the palace relied on this canal for all its water except for cooking.

It can be said that it is one of the few major arteries of life in the capital.

I traced the general direction of this canal on the map with a pencil, and found that it led to Ma Guifei's villa at an angle, and if the canal was connected, the great painter would be able to transfer from here to the villa.

I searched for the structure of the canal on my computer, and the latest statistics show that it is divided into two parts, the nullah on the ground is about four kilometers, and the underground culvert is at least twelve kilometers, which can not only lead from the pagoda town to Ma Guifei's villa, but also continue to the north.

I suddenly understood that since the great painter was not here, he must be in Ma Guifei's villa, and on the surface she sent her subordinates to send the great painter here, and immediately went underground and returned quickly.

All of this happened without us knowing anything, and then created the illusion that the great artist had been kidnapped.

This kind of perfect strategy of stealing the sky and changing the day can only be played by Ma Guifei.

I see through it but don't say it, because this is Ma Guifei's layout, and it has nothing to do with us how she wants to play.

"Ye Tian, don't look at the map anymore, it's useless at all, if the great painter dies, the secret of that painting ends here, and no one should mention it again. No matter which force is a traitor, all the bans in history will become an unsolvable mystery, and this is the happy ending for all. ”

The Ninth Princess thought she was clever and put all those too complicated issues into a separate book and ignored them.

In the past, there were indeed many historians who did the same, and they all treated some incomprehensible issues as suspicious and drew a clear relationship with themselves.

We had dinner in the command car, and the ninth princess pulled out the marching bed, slept comfortably, and did not wake up until the early hours of the morning.

I carefully read the maps of each dynasty and was 100% sure that Ma Guifei had used the canal to complete the plan.

She is really a smart person, and under everyone's surveillance, she unknowingly controls the great painter.

Since it took so much effort, it proves that the painting is important to her, and it is even possible that her family is the traitor in that painting......

Thinking of this answer, I didn't panic, but I felt more admiration for Ma Guifei, these secrets are time bombs at the moment, no one dares to touch them, and if they touch them, they will be crushed.

Everyone is like a group of clever football players, carefully passing these bombs around, not only to play cleverly, but also to use deadly moves at critical moments to let the opponent go to the west.

The Seventh Father-in-law is a living example, he thought that he had reached an agreement with Ma Guifei, and the two sides turned the war into a jade silk, but in fact, it was his weakness and concession that allowed others to find an opportunity to kill, so that he died without a place to be buried.

The Ninth Princess instructed her subordinates to send supper and share it with me: "Ye Tian, when I was sleeping just now, I suddenly figured out a problem, no one dared to do anything to Concubine Ma, since she sent someone to escort the great painter, it was to find a safe place to carefully understand the secret of that painting, how could it be so easily robbed by others?" Besides, so many forces in the capital know the relationship between Ma Guifei and the Eight Sages King, who dares to easily get along with her, and snatching food from the tiger's mouth is simply asking for his own death! So I judged that all this was related to Ma Guifei, and it must be a thief shouting to catch a thief, so she was in a daze. ”

She finally came to her senses, knowing that she was being led by someone else's nose, and she was trembling with anger, but she was helpless.

The capital is a big stage, and when someone takes the stage, they don't know how high or low they are, and they will become clowns in the eyes of all the audience.

I am very cautious not to speak ill of Ma Guifei in front of anyone, also because I think I understand her, and whether this understanding is right or not has not been confirmed, so I have to hold back.

I think that every sentence is targeted.

In this way, the Ninth Princess and I spent a long night in the command car, and everyone did not move, and did not withdraw, but continued to besiege Pagoda Town, expecting new discoveries.

When I woke up at dawn, I felt that the whole Pagoda Town felt like a paradise, without any noise or noise.

If it is in other parts of the city, at seven o'clock in the morning, many people must go out on time and rush to work, and the whole village and town will show a thriving and positive state.

But now, it is true that no one is driving away, and everyone's life is very leisurely, and it seems that they don't have to bend their waists for five buckets of rice to do those jobs that they don't like.

This situation is extraordinary, according to my understanding, this is the bridgehead for Ma Guifei to cover, and she may allocate a part of the money every month to support the people here, so that they can live and work in peace and contentment, and guard the pagoda town.

Everything became very ingenious, and I suspected that Ma Guifei was able to put all the doubts on her, and finally got a reasonable explanation.

All the tasks that follow can be summed up in one thing, which is to break into the villa and find the great painter.

The ninth princess also woke up and stretched out in her sleeping bag.

"Ye Tian, should we go back today? How did you discuss it with Concubine Ma? ”

I just saw through Ma Guifei's layout, and I don't know anything about the future.

The capital is so big, and the only one who can patiently accept me is Ma Guifei, that is to say, no matter what mistakes she makes, I will defend her and let her survive the difficulties.

The last time I rescued the Great Painter, it was only for her that I took the risk.

"Ninth Princess, we can only wait, wait for Concubine Ma to give orders, if you can't wait, just go and ask her in person, I have no opinion."

"Hahahaha, Ye Tian, since you are not in a hurry, I am not in a hurry. The territory of the Antarctic Immortal is very complicated, and my people are counting the accounts and will officially take over after a while, so I don't have any work, and I can wait here with you. ”

I never sent someone to inspect the canal, because I didn't want to reveal the secret of Ma Guifei and make her confused.
