At the end of Xu time.

The night is already deep.

Chang'an City.

Han Sui's former general's mansion.

A figure stood waiting at the gate of the mansion, but kept looking to the left, right and back, as if a little sneaky.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the door of Han Mansion opened, and Mending invited this person in.

About a quarter of an hour later, the man came out of Han Sui's mansion, looked around, and left quickly.

Because the defenders of Chang'an City are all the Xiliang Army, the military discipline is really not good, so, after dark, unless they are high-ranking officials, ordinary people dare not go out.

This man had just turned two streets and was about to go back to the inn where he was staying, when a few Xiliang sergeants suddenly poured out from a nearby alley and rushed towards him with knives.

With a sound of "crack", the man was taken aback, immediately took out the dagger from his arms, and shouted in a deep voice: "Several military lords, what are you going to do?"

The leader, Shi Chang, snorted coldly: "Boy, obediently catch him without a fight, otherwise, be careful not to lose your head."

The man stepped back and asked: "Masters, the villain just returned to the inn late, and he didn't do anything illegal, why did the masters arrest the villain?"

"Did you do anything illegal?" Shi Chang sneered and asked lightly, "Where did you go just now?"

"I..." The man's complexion changed, he paused for a moment, and then quibbled, "The villain is a foreigner, and he came to Chang'an for business, because it's the first time he came to Chang'an, and he went the wrong way."

"Put your mother's shit on." Shi Da was furious, and shouted, "Brothers, come on, if he wants to live, take him to see General Zuo."

Hearing this, the man immediately turned around and ran backwards.

Several Xiliang soldiers chased after him.

After a while, several soldiers from Xiliang also came in front of him, and surrounded the man from front to back.

The man was determined, brandishing the dagger, desperately fighting for his life.

This man also has some martial arts skills, and he killed four Xiliang soldiers in a row with only one dagger.

However, Xiliang soldiers were indeed fierce and good at fighting. This man was quickly captured alive by the remaining Xiliang soldiers.

"Baby bastard..." Shi Chang kicked this man hard in the stomach, cursing, "He actually killed some of my brothers."

"If I hadn't brought you to see General Zuo, I would have cut you to pieces."

This man also had a tough temper, he sneered and said, "The many are against the few, is this the style of your Xiliang army?"

"Get out of your mother." Shi Chang yelled angrily, then kicked the man hard, waved his hand, and shouted, "Take him away, go to General Zuo's mansion, and see the Eldest Young Master."

General Zuo is naturally Ma Teng.

However, it was not Ma Teng's intention to send someone to monitor Han Sui's residence, but Ma Chao's intention.

Ma Teng is considered a loyal man, but Ma Chao is very suspicious, and he is not at ease with Han Sui.

After a while, a group of people came to General Zuo's mansion, and the chief asked Mending to report to Ma Chao.

Ma Chao was already going to bed, when he heard the news, he asked Mending to bring someone to the living room, and he went to invite Ma Teng over.

"Meng Qi, what happened?" Ma Teng was also about to go to bed, but was confused by Ma Chao's yell.

Ma Chao did not answer, but said: "Father will follow me to the living room, and you will know. I just got the news."

Confused, Ma Teng followed Ma Chao to the living room.

"I have seen General Zuo, I have seen the eldest son." After saluting Ma Teng and Ma Chao, Shi Chang said, "General Zuo, this man sneaked into the former general's mansion just now, and was caught by the villains." .”

Going to the former general's mansion sneakily?
Ma Teng immediately understood what was going on, and his face darkened.

"Meng Qi, have you sent someone to monitor your Uncle Wen Yue's mansion?"

Ma Chao clasped his hands and said, "Father forgives the sin. My son did this for our Ma family."

"Although my father and Uncle Wenyue were married to Jinlan, since ancient times, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers."

"Even though my father yields to Uncle Wenyue in all aspects, but with my father, Uncle Wenyue will always have scruples in his heart, and he can't let go of things."

"As the saying goes, you must not have the heart to harm others, but you must also have the heart to guard against others."

"This person sneaked into Uncle Wenyue's mansion, there must be something else hidden, father can ask clearly, and then he will know whether the child's worry is superfluous."

Hearing what Ma Chao said made sense, Ma Teng looked at this man and asked in a deep voice: "You go to the former general's mansion, what's the matter, you should ask for it honestly, so as not to suffer flesh and blood."

The man said, "General Ma, the villain is under the command of the champion. If you dare to touch me, the champion will have a reason to send his troops south."

"Although General Ma is brave and good at fighting, he must be known for being a champion."

"If General Ma wants to stay in Chang'an City, it is best not to offend the champion, otherwise, General Ma will have to return to the barren land of Xiliang."

The champion Hou Huayu?
Ma Teng was startled, he didn't expect Hua Yu to send someone to look for Han Sui, and he was sneaky, this is not a trivial matter.

Ma Chao snapped, "Hua Yu sent you to Han Sui's house, why?"

The man sneered: "Kill if you like, cut if you want, and obey orders."

"Under Champion Hou's command, there is no one who is greedy for life and afraid of death."

"You..." Ma Chao was furious, and pulled out the long sword with a "chuckle", "Since you want to die, I will help you."

"Meng Qi, step back." Ma Teng immediately shouted and scolded Ma Chao.

Then, Ma Teng said lightly to this person: "Brother, I can only wrong you for a night, and I will deal with you after I find out the truth of the matter."

"Come here, take this brother down, don't neglect."

"Here." Although the elder was unwilling, he didn't dare to disobey his orders, so he had to agree to come down and take this person down.

Ma Chao immediately asked, "What is Father going to do?"

Ma Teng narrowed his eyes, and snorted coldly: "If Han Sui really colluded with Hua Yu secretly and wanted to plot against us, we naturally can't just wait for death."

"However, just because Hua Yu sent someone to the former general's mansion, we can't insist that there is collusion between Wen Yue and Hua Yu."

Ma Chao said hastily, "Father, this man went to Han Sui's house, and he is very sneaky."

"There is definitely a problem. Father must not be careless. He must investigate clearly."

Although Ma Teng is not as treacherous as Han Sui, he is also a somewhat cunning person. He sneered: "If my father's expectations are right, I'm afraid your Uncle Wen Yue is already on his way here."

Ma Chao was taken aback for a moment, and then his face changed greatly: "What does father mean, that Han Sui has placed a spy in our mansion?"

Ma Teng smiled lightly: "Of course, it's indecent to come and not to go. How can I not be a father in Han Sui's house?"

At this moment, the steward came to report in a hurry: "Report to Master, the former general is here, and he is waiting for Master in the study."
