Chapter Seventy-Two: Breaking into the Prime Minister's Mansion at Night (I)
The dark clouds were hidden, the dim moonlight appeared and disappeared, and a dark shadow swept through the light clouds in an instant, flying and shuttling on the eaves of the pavilion......
Su Jia was dressed in night clothes, stepping on light skills, and her goal was to go to the Bianliang Prime Minister's Mansion...... Although Su Jia reluctantly burst into tears in front of Xiao Tian before leaving, when she really went to perform a dangerous mission, the whole person quickly regained her former vigilance. Because of the masked movement, Su Jia's expression could not be seen, but it could be seen from her resolute eyes that she had a great determination for this action and took it very seriously......
The Bianliang Xiangfu is located in the area near the north gate of Bianliang, headed by Zuo Junbi, and the Wanggu Department and Wuliang Habel have been stationed here to guard affairs. The North Gate is considered the emptiest area in the bustling city of Bianliang, and the flow of people is not as large as in other parts of the city. Since the "Laiyun Dart Bureau" moved away from the north gate of Bianliang, there is not much prosperous logistics here. Therefore, except for a few pedestrians shuttling, it is mainly used for military training, so the prime minister's mansion is heavily guarded inside and outside, and it is generally difficult for outsiders to enter......
Of course, Su Jia is also very clear about this, but now she finally got a trace of information about Chen Shijin, Su Jia thinks that this is also the only opportunity today, so she doesn't want to let go of this opportunity. For this reason, Su Jia concealed many people around him, and did that kind of thing to Xiao Tian tonight - when she thought of this, Su Jia couldn't help but feel sad and blame herself......
There is no turning back when the bow is opened, and since Su Jia has arrived here at this time, there is no turning back...... After about half an hour, Su Jia found the door of the Bianliang Prime Minister's Mansion......
The Prime Minister's Mansion is the Prime Minister's Mansion, and there are indeed a lot of soldiers standing outside the door. However, these soldiers are not all Mongols, there are also many Han Chinese, and it seems that the outermost people stationed at the outermost level are not cronies of the Mongolian high-level.
Su Jia made a light effort, took a leap, and jumped silently to the attic closest to the gate of the Bianliang Prime Minister's Mansion. Through the hazy night, Su Jia lay on her stomach in the attic, quietly observing everything around her, waiting for an opportunity to move......
On this trip, Su Jia not only brought a ghost knife, but also a sword. After all, Xiao Tian had already performed the Divine Dragon Nine Transformation Sword Technique in front of outsiders, so he had no choice. As a last resort, Su Jia would not use the Soul Breaking Sword Technique in front of outsiders......
No matter how high Su Jia's light skills are, shuttling on the eaves of the attic will make a slight sound. When the night is silent, let alone a martial arts master, even if it is an ordinary person, there is some wind and grass in the attic, he can still hear it. Su Jia was thinking about this question, after all, Bianliang City was an important garrison, and the soldiers here were never lazy, and they were all in high spirits to guard it. And they will also alternate standing guard at each turn. If this is the case, even if Su Jia is ambushed here for a night, it is impossible for him to have a chance to enter the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion without anyone knowing......
While Su Jia was thinking, at this time, several patrolmen walked out from both sides of the entrance of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Unlike the usual patrolmen, each of them was carrying a large dog...... Now the trouble is coming again, the dog's sense of smell is surprisingly good, especially after special training. It can be said that no matter which martial arts master, no matter how well he hides his breath next to him, it is impossible to avoid the dog's nose.
"Is it a dog?" Su Jia looked at the soldiers who came out to lead the dog on both sides of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and said secretly in her heart, "No, I have to think of a countermeasure quickly, otherwise I will be discovered sooner or later......
Su Jia thought about it, and unconsciously grabbed the two stones beside her in her hands. "With ......," Su Jia said secretly with joy in her heart.
So, Su Jia lifted up slightly, picked up a few stones on the ground, and ...... "whoosh", Su Jia unknowingly shot out the stones in his hand in the form of a hidden weapon. The object of the stone is -- the dogs.
A dog's sense of smell is indeed very sensitive, but it is far from enough to beware of hidden weapons. After only waiting for a while, the dogs under the soldiers were shot by Su Jia's hidden weapons one by one, and they all yelled "Wang, Wang". On such a quiet night, all the dogs barked at the same time, and the sound resounded throughout the alleyway.
The dogs on both sides barked at the same time, and all the soldiers present felt that there was something wrong with the dogs, so they talked one after another, and then watched the dogs' reactions. Because it was on both sides, the dogs and the dogs were barking face to face, and everyone thought that these two groups of dogs were going to fight each other......
Suddenly, a figure jumped by and flew into the Prime Minister's Mansion...... No one noticed, probably some dogs noticed, and "Wang" a few times. But since the dog had been barking just now, the soldier didn't pay much attention to what was wrong with these few sounds......
Su Jia successfully entered the Prime Minister's ...... Walking inside, the lights were suddenly much brighter than outside, and Su Jia should be even more careful about her whereabouts.
"Wang Gubu Lato said that there is information about the guards in the library of the Prime Minister's Mansion......" Su Jia said secretly in her heart, "But there are so many large and small rooms here, how do I know which one is the library ......?"
Although the lights were bright here, the door plaques of each room were still hidden at night, and Su Jia stood on the eaves of the old house, unable to see what was written on it at all.
"It seems that ......I can only find them one by one tonight" Su Jia was a little disappointed, but there was no way.
Su Jia jumped to the eaves of a room and looked down through the window—there was billowing heat and the sound of metal clashing. I saw a naked man beating his weapon by the fire, as if he was forging a sword.
"This is a blacksmith shop, not a library...... Su Jia said secretly.
However, in order to see clearly, Su Jia jumped to the door of a room when no one was around...... Suddenly, Su Jia was startled by something that she stepped on the ground - it was blood!
At this time, the sound of killing pigs came from inside the house - it seemed that this should be a slaughterhouse. Su Jia didn't look for the right place again, and suddenly heard the footsteps of patrolling soldiers nearby, so he jumped on the roof again......
"If you look for it like this, you won't be able to find it all in one night...... Su Jia said silently in her heart, "By the way, since there are so many military secrets recorded in that library, it must be in a deeper and heavier place in the Prime Minister's Mansion......
Thinking of this, Su Jia took another leap and stepped into the deeper courtyard of the Xiangfu......
Going deeper inside, the scene was really different - all the guards here were Mongolian soldiers, all of them carrying extremely sharp Miao knives, and they were concentrating on guarding every pass here.
Su Jia saw it in her eyes, and her vigilance was a little higher. The lights here are obviously not as bright as outside, but the guards are several times tighter, and there must be a large number of Mongolian masters hidden here.
However, there are still some places where the guard is a little lax. Su Jia showed curiosity and looked towards the houses. As soon as I reached the top of the eaves, I heard the voices of men and women inside. Su Jia glanced at the court secretly, and almost blushed with shame - Wang Sansheng, one of the three Wang generals who guarded the royal city, was actually doing shady things with a prostitute. Su Jia naturally didn't dare to look any further, turned her head and flew away with light skills......
However, the scene just now at least relieved Su Jia's heart, Wang Sansheng, one of the three Wang generals with strong martial arts, has a very poor vigilance today, and Su Jia's danger is one point less.
But the size of these risk factors is not the primary factor for Su Jia to consider, her main concern now is where the library is located......
While Su Jia was thinking, suddenly, a very familiar and powerful murderous aura was approaching Su Jia...... Su Jia felt it, and stepped on the eaves a little farther away, watching the changes......
I saw a nine-foot man in armor leading the soldiers to patrol the vicinity, and the person who came did not ask, the person who should have a strong murderous spirit was Wang Dasheng, who had the strongest martial arts among the Wang generals who killed the Hu brothers today. Su Jia saw it in his eyes, although the night was hazy, covering his cold face, it couldn't hide the murderous aura he exuded from his body, but under the cover of the night, the murderous aura became more and more intense.
Wang Dasheng walked a few steps, then stopped. Seeing Wang Dasheng stop not far from him, Su Jia's heart was also tense all the time...... Wang Dasheng paused, then turned his head to the soldiers behind him and said, "When the time comes, go and call the soldiers in the library to change shifts, and after changing them, I will report!"
"Yes!" the Mongolian soldier agreed, carrying a Miao knife.
"The library library?" Su Jia secretly said in her heart, "This soldier is going to the library library...... Great, as long as you follow him, you will definitely be able to get to the library......" So, Su Jia made up her mind......
When the soldier left Wang Dasheng, Su Jia also quietly followed......
Sure enough, not long after, Su Jia followed the soldier to the library library. Although the night was hazy, Su Jia, who was following behind the soldiers, could still see the three big characters "Library Library" on the plaque reflected in the faint light of the lantern.
"General Wang said that the library will be guarded by a different person, and the rest of the people will go to the general to meet him!" said the leading soldier.
"Yes!" replied the soldiers in unison.
So, the soldiers successfully changed their guards in pairs, and the rest of the people followed the leading soldiers back to Wang Dasheng's side......
However, Su Jia didn't care too much about such idle chores, she stepped onto the roof of the library and gently removed the bricks and tiles on it—it seemed that Su Jia was planning to go directly into the library from the top of the eaves......
Sure enough, it didn't take much effort for Su Jia to successfully sneak into the library of the Prime Minister's Mansion...... Although there was no candlelight inside, with the moonlight that appeared and disappeared, Su Jia could still see the situation inside dimly. This library is not big or small, and there are not many books and texts in it.
Su Jia paced lightly in the library, carefully looking at the types of books and documents here...... Suddenly, Su Jia stopped in front of a book. "This is the information of the previous generals who defended the city in Bianliang...... Su Jia said secretly, and then took a bundle and flipped it over......
On Wang Dasheng's side, the guards, who had been replaced, returned......
"General Qiyu, everything is in place!" said the leading soldier.
"Nothing went wrong, right?" Wang Dasheng asked coldly.
"No, General," replied the leading soldier.
Wang Dasheng listened, nodded, and then led his patrolmen to continue walking forward...... Suddenly, a patrol dog barked at the eaves of the crowd.
"Hey, hey, what's the matter with this dog...... "The soldier who led the dog tried to hold the dog who suddenly went out of sorts, and scolded in his mouth, "This beast, you are still there, believe it or not, I will go back and slaughter you?"
When the patrolmen saw this, they also began to complain about the sudden malfunction of the patrol dog. Wang Dasheng looked at it, his eyes wrinkled, and then he looked up at the eaves.
Suddenly, Wang Dasheng suddenly took a leap and performed light skills to the top of the eaves.
"General Wang, what's wrong?" asked the leading soldier below.
Wang Dasheng did not answer immediately, but looked around...... Suddenly, he fixed his gaze on one part of the eaves. Wang Dasheng always felt that there was something on it, so he rubbed it with his hand. Wet, Wang Dasheng sniffed it with his nose...... "It's pig blood...... Wang Dasheng wondered, "How can there be pig blood on the eaves......
It turned out that there was pig blood at the near corner of the eaves, so the patrol dog would have such a big reaction. "With such a small amount of pig blood, dogs can smell it, which means that this pig blood is fresh, and it has just been left for a short ......time," Wang Dasheng looked there again, and by the dim moonlight, he found traces of footprints, so he was surprised, and then said to the soldiers downstairs, "Be vigilant, there are unknown people breaking into the Prime Minister's Mansion!"
It turned out that Su Jia had once stood at the door of the slaughterhouse, so there would be some fresh pig blood left on the soles of his feet - this Su Jia never expected.
The leading soldiers downstairs were even more surprised when they heard what Wang Dasheng said: "Is it true, General Wang?"
Wang Dasheng jumped down from the eaves, and then said coldly: "This person can enter the depths of the Xiangfu unknowingly, he must be a master, everyone should pay attention!"
"Yes!" the group replied, and then the leading soldier asked, "and where would that man be now?"
"Judging from the freshness of the pig's blood, this guy must have eavesdropped on the eaves when we spoke just now......" Wang Dasheng thought as he spoke, thinking of what he had just talked about the "library library", so he suddenly said seriously, "The library library!"
"What, the library, what do we do now?" asked the lead soldier.
Wang Dasheng said with a murderous face: "This thief's burden is not small...... Pass on my order, the major generals will be dispatched, and the Prime Minister's Mansion will start from the outermost layer, and gradually surround the inside, and Zuihou will be in the library together!"
"Yes!" replied the leading soldier, and immediately ordered his subordinates to concentrate their forces and encircle the prime minister's mansion from the outside to the interior......
In the library, Su Jia was still engrossed in searching for information about Chen Shijin—apparently she hadn't noticed that danger was approaching her......
"Found it, the information about Chen Shijin ......" Su Jia found the content about Chen Shijin in the book, and was overjoyed in her heart, "It turns out that Chen Shijin is no longer in Bianliang City. He was ordered by the emperor to go to Tongguan to guard the ......, "Seeing that Chen Shijin was not in Bianliang City, Su Jia was inevitably a little disappointed, but he still knew Chen Shijin's specific whereabouts, and Su Jia did not get nothing......
Putting back the bundle of documents about the guards, Su Jia thought for a while: "Do you want to leave now?" Maybe there are other contents...... It seems that Su Jia doesn't plan to go back now. So, Su Jia continued to grope for books......
The library is very rarely visited, so most of it is dusty...... Suddenly, Su Jia walked past a bundle of documents, and then stopped. "There is no dust in this document, it seems that it was put up recently......" Su Jia took a closer look and exclaimed in his heart, "Otherwise, I'll see what the content is here, maybe it has a lot to do with the recent kendo conference......
So, Su Jia strengthened her courage, gently took out the bundle of documents, and then opened it...... Just read a few pages, "This...... This is—" Su Jia couldn't help but say in surprise......
"Third brother, get out of here!" Wang Dasheng yelled outside Wang Sansheng's door, "I know what you're doing inside!"
Wang Sansheng was still having fun at this time, and when he heard his eldest brother's voice, Wang Sansheng hurriedly got dressed, and then opened the door......
"Big brother, big brother...... Wang Sansheng replied nervously, "Yes...... What's the matter?"
Wang Dasheng glanced at the disheveled Wang Sansheng and the prostitute who was tightly wrapped in a quilt on the bed, Wang Dasheng "snorted", and then said coldly: "You guy, the old problem will not change...... Believe it or not, I'll report to Captain Wanggu?"
"Don't, don't, don't, big brother, I'...... I won't dare next time......" Wang Sansheng said nervously.
Seeing Wang Sansheng's embarrassed appearance, Wang Dasheng disdained, and then said solemnly: "There are thieves entering the Prime Minister's Mansion, third brother, I need your manpower!"
"Is it true, big brother?" Wang Sansheng heard this, and said nervously, "This is okay, we have to hurry up and report to the guards of the various departments......
"Hmph, I've been ready for a long time, where is it like you are here to enjoy ......" Wang Dasheng said coldly, "The thief is in the library, I need your manpower to surround the library......"
"Library, isn't there ......" Wang Sansheng suddenly thought of something and said nervously.
"That's right, there's that document there...... If that thief knows, our Jihua will be in chaos...... Therefore, we must not let that thief leave the Prime Minister's Mansion alive tonight......" Wang Dasheng suddenly said murderously......
...... in the library
"This ...... This is-" Su Jia took the literature in her hand and said in surprise, "I understand, I understand everything......" Su Jia's hand was still trembling slightly......
There was a sudden sound of iron hooves outside the door, but Su Jia in the door didn't pay attention......
Su Jia continued to say secretly: "I see, that's why they will hold this kendo tournament in Bianliang City......
A fire began to appear outside the door, but Su Jia still didn't notice it......
Su Jia continued to say secretly: "This is the real purpose of the Mongols, although it will not be directly related to the major sects of martial arts, but it is related to ......"
The sound outside the door gradually stopped, but ...... The Prime Minister's Mansion has already constructed a heavy encirclement from the outside to the inside, and the Prime Minister's Mansion has been encircled......
After reading the literature, Su Jia seemed to understand the cause and effect of this kendo conference in an instant. And in addition to the Meng Yuan Dynasty, I am afraid that among the outsiders who know about this matter, Su Jia is the first......
Su Jia closed her eyes, slowly put back the literature, and then thought for a while...... When Su Jia opened her eyes again, her whole body also woke up from her thoughts just now. Of course, when she was about to leave, she also knew that there were already heavy soldiers outside.
"Hmph, have you still been discovered...... Su Jia laughed to herself, and then held a sword and a sword tightly in her left and right hands, ready to fight at any time......
The soldiers outside the door are also ready...... There were heavy torches outside the door, and Wang Dasheng walked to the front, staring at the door of the library with his eyes......
Su Jia was in the library, and her eyes were also staring at the door......
One of the two sides is outside the door and the other is inside the door, and the battle is about to break out......
Su Jia's eyes wrinkled, and she secretly said in her heart: "Success or failure is here...... Ah Tian, I'm sorry, if I can't go back alive today, you ......" Thinking of this, Su Jia's heart was still sad......
At this time, Xiao Tian was still in Lu Fu's room with his eyes closed, completely unaware of Su Jia's dangerous situation at this time......
The line between life and death, what is the final result......
