A slave brought a basin of water, and a few petals floated in the water. Aomine put his slender fingers into the water to wash his hands, and a towel as white as snow was placed next to him.

Zhang Wen looked at everything in front of him in amazement, if it weren't for the fact that he was surrounded by two thousand garrisons, Zhang Wen really wanted to laugh out loud.

Qingfeng saw that the eyes next to him were wrong, and he said indifferently: "Killing people is a pleasure for me......"

The word "accept" had just fallen, and suddenly the knife flashed, and Zhang Ying had already jumped over, with a thin blade in his hand. Zhang Yingcai was too lazy to talk nonsense with him.

Zhang Ying's figure is very agile, the trajectory of the attack is a straight line, fast and accurate are her characteristics, there are no moves and beauty to speak of, such a knife is only effective. Aomine was shocked, he didn't expect a woman who was still smiling just now to shoot so ruthlessly. In desperation, Qingfeng raised the basin of water to resist.

"Wow!" The sharp blade cut a scratch at the bottom of the copper basin, making a tooth-sore sound. Qingfeng finally blocked Zhang Ying's sudden blow, but he was already very embarrassed, and all the water he used to wash his hands just now was splashed on his own head.

Qingfeng had a petal on his forehead, and the water on his head and face was like a chicken in soup, and he said angrily: "What an unreasonable mother-in-law...... Wait, my sword! ”

At this time, Zhang Ying's body was short and attacked again. Aomine held a copper basin as a weapon to parry, where is there still a chance to get the sword on the table.

Zhang Wen walked to the table and picked up Aomine's sword. With a dragon groan, like a sword body of water, this is indeed a good sword! Zhang Wen drew his sword and casually threw the scabbard inlaid with precious stones on the ground.

Zhang Wen pointed his sword at Qian Yiqian, and Liu Yinglian exclaimed: "Lord Zhang, be merciful!" ”

"Stand still!" Zhang Wen saw that Liu Ying was about to rush over, and suddenly had a headache, he really wanted to kill this troublesome woman with a sword, of course he wouldn't really kill innocents so indiscriminately. Seeing this, Liu Yinglian was worried about Qian Yiqian's safety, so she had to stand in place with wide eyes.

Zhang Wen's sleeve swept from the blade of the sword, and suddenly the sleeve was cut off, and a piece of silk floated to the ground. How sharp this sword is! Qian Yiqian's face turned pale when he saw this, and he waved his hand and said, "Zhang ...... Master Zhang, there is something to say, something to say......"

"Lord Qian, you should understand that if Lao Tzu is assassinated here, you will have to fight your life! Did someone blackmail you into doing this? Zhang Wen looked angry.

Qian Yiqian nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "Yes, yes, the lower officials are also coerced, Lord Zhang...... We have something to say. ”

The tip of Zhang Wen's sword was sent another inch: "Who mobilized the army?" ”

"The commander of the capital makes what Chen has learned ......"

"If you want to live, let Chen Suxue and the people get out of here immediately!"

Qian Yiqian almost cried, looking at the sword in Zhang Wen's hand as if it would be stabbed at any time, the hem of Qian Yiqian's robe continued to tremble~ and cry mournfully...... You asked the subordinate to go out and inform Chen of what he had learned...... Let him fuck off......"

Let you go out and inform Chen of what he has learned, why don't you take the opportunity to slip away? Zhang asked: Chen Suxue is the commander of the envoys, and Qian Yiqian is the person who is the political envoy, so he can't command!

At this moment, I suddenly heard Aomine screaming, "My face! You accompany my face! I saw that the left side of his face was bleeding for a long time, and Zhang Ying cut a big wound.

A whistle sounded, followed by Aomine's crying shout: "Someone! Kill! Kill them all! ”

A group of short-clothed men carrying swords rushed up downstairs, Xuan Yue pulled out the scimitar from his waist with a sigh, made one step in two steps, jumped over, and split when he saw someone. Xuan Yue shouted: "Boss, go away, jump down!" ”

Zhang Wen pointed his sword at Qian Yiqian and said, "Jump!" Busy running, Lao Tzu stabbed you to death with a sword. Qian Yiqian stood behind the wooden fence and looked down, Zhang Wen kicked him in the ass, Qian Yiqian shouted in fright, and flew down the stairs. Zhang Wen immediately jumped down.

After a while, Liu Yinglian also jumped down from the stairs and followed Zhang Wen. Zhang Wen glared at Liu Ying and said, "Don't follow us!" I'm not going to kill Qian Yiqian. ”

Liu Yinglian's face turned pale and said: "They will kill me and kill me...... This woman is indeed a smart woman, and she realized the situation so quickly.

Qian Yiqian hugged his leg and cried: "My leg is broken!" Zhang Wen held his sword and said, "Hurry up, otherwise Lao Tzu will help you cut it off with a sword." So Qian Yiqian stood up, and it seemed that the sword could cure his leg injury.

At this moment, the Assassins in the building rushed out of the door and asked Zhang directly. Xuan Yue was still on the pavilion, and when she saw this, she shouted anxiously: "The owner is leaving." "Jump down.

The short-clothed assassin had rushed to Zhang Wen, Zhang Wen raised his long sword and swept over, and immediately cut off the knife, the sword in his hand was really a sword that sharpened like clay! Xuan Yue had already jumped to Zhang Wen's side, protected Zhang Wen, and fought with the rushing assassins.

In a cave door to the east, a large crowd of armed weapons also rushed out, all of them private soldiers. The garrison did not rush in, after all, it was the army of the imperial court, and if they knew Zhang Wen's identity, they would never dare to come to Zhang Wen.

Seeing this, Xuanyue came with so many people again, and said, "Let's go quickly!" ”

Zhang Wen, Qian Yiqian and Liu Yinglian hurriedly fled to the north, Xuan Yue followed closely, and after a while, Zhang Ying also caught up. Zhang Ying glanced at Qian Yiqian and said, "Kill this faint official with a sword, what are you doing with it?" ”

Zhang Wen said as he ran: "This is Qian Yiqian's courtyard, maybe he knows the secret way." Qian Yiqian hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, the officials in this courtyard are the most familiar with it, I know the secret way!" ”

A few people entered a cave door, and inside was a courtyard, with houses, rocks, and trees, and Zhang Wen and the others hurriedly rushed forward. Zhang Wen held a sword in one hand and Qian Yiqian's wrist in the other, and asked, "Where is the secret way?" ”

Qian Yiqian pointed to the north and said, "In the backyard." Zhang Wen asked Qian Yiqian to lead the way and ran to the backyard. The assassins were still behind, and the voices were loud and shouting, but the layout of the garden was complicated, and they lost people for a while, so they had to search everywhere. Zhang Wen and the others took the opportunity to go straight to the backyard.

Qian Yiqian took Zhang Wen and the others into a windowless room: "Where is the secret passage?" Qian Yiqian pointed to the one inside: "In the back." ”

Zhang Ying and Xuan Yue ran over after hearing this, and together they pasted the wall with wallpaper. Zhang Ying touched it, uncovered the wallpaper, it was a brick wall, she pushed it with her hand, did not move at all, put her ear on the wall again, knocked it with her hand, turned around and said, "How to open it?" ”

Qian Yiqian walked to the corner of the wall, grabbed a rope and pulled it a few times, only to hear the sound of the wheels turning, and the wall opened. Zhang asked to see that he was overjoyed, there was really a secret way. immediately asked Qian Yiqian to go forward, and then followed in. The latter matters, Zhang Ying and Xuan Yue dealt with, including destroying the mechanism that was opened.

After a while, all five people walked in, and Xuan Yue blew the fire fold and handed it to Zhang Wen. Zhang asked, "Qian Yiqian, where does this secret passage lead?" Does anyone else know? ”

"What leads to where?" Qian Yiqian was stunned.

Zhang Wen glared and said, "No exit?" Qian Yiqian said: "The exit is right there just now, this is where I hid the silver." ”

Zhang Wen said angrily: "There is no exit, so aren't we trapped here?" Qian Yiqian probably realized that he was useless now, so he fell to his knees, "There is a lot of silver in the secret room, all of which belong to adults, can you spare the life of the official......?"

Zhang Wen sneered: "I really haven't seen anyone more afraid of death than you." Do you still want to live? Don't worry, I don't want to kill you, but I think you'll soon be arrested in jail and killed for no apparent reason, and I don't want you to talk nonsense. ”

"My lord, Xia Guan has figured it out, only you can save Xia Guan's life. There are Gonggong Wei and the emperor above you, and they can't do anything about you. As long as the adult saves the life of the official, the official will repay the adult for saving his life as a cow and a horse......"

Zhang Wen's heart moved when he heard this, and he was stunned: "Lord Qian is willing to join the eunuch party?" ”

Qian Yiqian said indignantly: "I just made a mistake, and they designed me to be a scapegoat, and I was killed as soon as possible." What am I doing with them? As long as the adults are willing to lead the way for the lower officials, the lower officials will definitely let them walk around without eating. ”

Liu Ying was stunned when she heard this: "Lord Qian......" Under the firelight, her face was pale, and a tall and clear image collapsed in front of her eyes.

Zhang Wen helped Qian Yiqian up and said with a smile: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say, as long as you know the current affairs, everything is easy to say." Zhang Wen was so excited that he almost forgot that he was in danger, as long as Qian Yiqian was willing to bite back, this matter was simply too beneficial to himself. At this time, Zhang Ying's words were like a basin of cold water poured down: "Xianggong, let's think about how to get out of trouble first." ”

Zhang Wen looked at Qian Yiqian and said, "Is this a dead end?" ”

Qian Yiqian nodded and said, "In the past, it was a secret room, and it was a place for the lower officials to put their money. ”

Zhang Wen thought about it, and now he went out to fall into the net, so he said, "Let's go over and have a look first." The group walked along a dark secret passage with stone walls on both sides. After a while, an iron gate blocked the road, and the iron gate was chained. Seeing this, Qian Yiqian said, "Oh no, I forgot to bring the key just now." ”

"Get out of the way!" Zhang Wen walked to the iron gate with his sword, raised his long sword, aimed at the iron chain, and slashed down with a sword, only to hear a "clang", and the iron chain broke in response. Zhang Wen praised: "What a sword!" Qian Yiqian, what is the name of this sword? ”

Qian Yiqian said: "This is the sword of Qingfeng, one of the four guards under Ye Gongzi's seat, named Rouge Tears, sharpening iron like clay, rare in the world." ”

"Rouge tears? This dead shemale, taking a name and ruining a good sword in vain, now that it's mine, I have to change the name, it's called ...... Young Master Zhang's sword, I like this sword so much. Zhang Wen looked at the sword in his hand and said, he suddenly asked, "Who is Ye Gongzi?" ”

"Ye Gongzi is Ye Feng, the grandson of today's Shoufu Ye Xianggao!" Qian Yiqian talked about that son, his eyes were full of resentment.

Ye Feng! Zhang Wen looked at Zhang Ying and said, "Ying'er, you said before that Miss Shen was engaged to someone, but this Ye Feng?" ”

Zhang Ying nodded and said: "Wanli time, Ye Xianggao quit the prime minister, passed by Zhejiang, met Master Shen, met friends with chess, thought that he was a good friend, so he decided to make a family affair. Unexpectedly, Li Ruzi's daughter fell madly in love with Ye Feng, and after learning about it, she did whatever it took to take revenge on Miss Shen. At that time, Li Ruzi's power was in full swing, and Miss Shen did not stop until she was disabled. That's why Miss Shen has a grudge with the Li family. ”

Zhang Wen heard this, and a ball of anger rose in his heart.

At this moment, I heard someone exclaim, and when Zhang Wen heard the sound, his eyes were full of yellow and white light, which was the light reflected by gold and silver. Xuan Yue lit the candle placed on the cabinet with a fire breaker, the light became stronger, and the scene in the stone room suddenly became clearer.

I saw that there were six large wooden cabinets in the stone room, and there were several layers of partitions in the wooden cabinets, and ingots were neatly placed on the partitions! Gold ingots and silver ingots are all fifty taels and one ingots, densely arranged, and they can't be counted.

"Wow!" The crowd couldn't help but make a sound.

Qian Yiqian said with a painful face: "As long as the adult is willing to pull down the official, all the gold and silver are the adult's." ”

Liu Yinglian looked at Qian Yiqian and said, "Lord Qian, where did you get so much money?" Why do you say that there is no money during disaster relief? ”

Qian Yiqian stared at Liu Yinglian indignantly, and said coldly: "You know too much. He picked up a piece of gold casually, and suddenly smashed it against Liu Yinglian's forehead, "bang", Liu Yinglian screamed, a stream of blood flowed down her forehead, she immediately fainted, her body was shaking, Zhang Wen hurriedly hugged her waist. Zhang Wen looked at Qian Yiqian and said, "What are you doing?" ”

Qian Yiqian said: "It's just a dusty woman, let her know too much, I'm afraid it will leak out, it's better to kill it." ”

Liu Ying was soft in Zhang Wen's arms, her eyes slipped two lines of tears, slid into the blood, and no one noticed.

Zhang Wen said coldly: "Didn't you treat her like a lady in the main room?" What a waste of her sincerity to you! What is she not willing to do for you? How much risk did she take when calculating her own officials? For the sake of the ideal of benefiting the country and the people as you said, she disregarded her own safety and personally risked the danger, such a woman, you want to stone her to death as soon as you get gold? ”

Zhang Ying and Xuan Yue both looked at Qian Yiqian angrily, each holding a weapon in his hand, which made Qian Yiqian startled, and hurriedly said, "This ...... The adults are angry, and the two girls are angry...... Listen to my explanation, Liu Yinglian is a Qinglou woman in the end, the sage said that only women and villains are difficult to raise, don't leak secrets for a Qinglou woman, it's a big deal! My lord, if you were replaced, you wouldn't risk ruining your reputation for a woman, would you? ”

Zhang Ying said coldly: "Don't compare him with you!" Do you know how many things he has done for a woman? ”

Zhang Wen shook his head and said, "Ying'er, what are you talking about?" Qian Yiqian, Liu Yinglian can't be killed, I believe she won't leak secrets. ”

Qian Yiqian smiled and said: "Since Master Zhang is talking, then let her live." ”

Zhang Wen took the handkerchief handed over by Zhang Ying and gently wiped the wound for Liu Yinglian. Now that there are assassins outside, Zhang Wen and the others naturally dare not go out, and there is no other exit here, which means that they are trapped in this place, and there is no other way.

After Liu Yinglian's bleeding stopped, Zhang Wen put her down, looked at Qian Yiqian and said, "So, Ye Feng is the behind-the-scenes controller of the chess hall?" ”

Qian Yiqian frowned and thought for a while: "I don't know if Shoufu Ye Xianggao knows about this, Yuan Fu has never come forward, and we can't tell Yuan Fuming." However, some of the ministers of Donglin in the DPRK and China took care of us, and they actually looked at the face of Yuansuke. ”

Zhang Wen thought of Shoufu Ye Xianggao, and remembered his righteous and awe-inspiring figure in the temple, and his whole body exuded a temperament of worrying about the country and the people. No! Ye Xianggao would never know about this! Ye Xianggao would not be involved in such a thing, all this must have been done by Ye Feng under the guise of his grandfather!

The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, whether they are the Donglin Party or the Eunuch Party, are all black crows in Zhang Wen's eyes, but Ye Xianggao, although Ye Xianggao is the leader of the Donglin Party and his opposite, Zhang Wen respects Ye Xianggao in his heart. Ye Xianggao worked hard and spent his whole life looking for a way to support Sheji; Ye Xiang is highly respected, and has adhered to the political ideal of "reassuring the subjects, speaking the road, clearing taxes, and collecting people's hearts" for decades, worrying about the country and the people, and showing mercy to the people in the world.

Such a person, although Zhang Wen does not agree with his political ideas, does not affect Zhang Wen's reverence for him. In Zhang Wen's eyes, Ye Xianggao is a true gentleman in this world; It is the pillar of the Ming Dynasty; It is the backbone of the Han nation! Integrity, high style, both ability and political integrity, ambition, ideals above all else!

Zhang Wen didn't believe that Ye Xianggao would be involved in dirty things, and he didn't want to believe it. So he said categorically: "Shut up! Motosuke is by no means such a person! ”

Qian Yiqian looked at Zhang Wen with amazement, because Zhang Wen was a eunuch! Zhang Ying and Xuan Yue were also confused by Zhang Wen's sudden emotional excitement. Zhang Wen's emotions were a little out of control and said: "Ye Feng is Ye Feng, Ye Xianggao is Ye Xianggao." You understand, Ye Feng can do such a thing, but Ye Xianggao will never be able to! ”

Liu Yinglian also woke up, and sat in the corner of the wall, her heart was probably already cold, and when she heard Zhang Wen so excited, she couldn't help but look at Zhang Wen.

After a long time, Zhang Wen calmed down and asked coldly: "Who are the ministers of the DPRK and China who participated in the accumulation of wealth?" ”

Qian Yiqian was stunned and said: "I don't know completely, as far as I know, Zhao Beixing (Donglin Party), Cabinet Minister Han Guo (Donglin Party), Cui Chengxiu, Secretary of the Ministry of War, and Wang Tiqian, the eunuch of the Ministry of Ceremonies, divided the silver last year. Donglin Party officials in Zhejiang were influenced by Zhao Beixing, and many of them were also involved......"

Zhang Wen thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Grandpa Wei shouldn't know, right?" ”

Qian Yiqian couldn't help but smile and said, "If we can bring Gonggong Wei in, I'm afraid we and the eunuchs won't have to fight to the death." ”

Zhang Wen nodded and said, "When we get out of here, you will defect to Gonggong Wei and confess those Donglin parties." Remember, you can't identify Master Cui, Wang Tiqian, and Sun Long! ”
