My surname is Wang, my neighbor Wu Dalang

Zhao Ji is missing!

Wu Song got the news with a solemn face. If Zhao Ji really escaped from under his nose and from the city of Kaifeng that he thought was impenetrable, it would really be a big joke, and how should he explain to the emperor of Yanjing.

The [-] Kaifeng defenders, except those who cleaned up the mess in the palace, the rest of the soldiers will seal off the gates entering and leaving the imperial city and the palace city. not open.

Kaifeng Jinyiwei Yamen.

It was already daylight.

Yan Qing's face was gloomy, she stared at the topographic map of Kaifeng City on the table and groaned.

Outside Kaifeng Imperial City and Miyagi City, on the left is Wu Song's garrison camp, and before that, it was also the headquarters of the imperial guards in the capital. Yan Qing guessed that the possibility of people behind the scenes digging into the palace's secret road is very small.

But on the right is the semi-open Ten Mile Royal Street.

After the change of dynasty in Dayan, Kaifeng was no longer the capital city, and this imperial street, which was originally restricted by the royal family and dignitaries, has long been transformed into a commercial street with shops and wine shops on both sides of the street.

This is the most suspicious place.

But here is the most difficult to block.

But Yan Qing thought to himself that his reaction was very fast, the time Zhao Ji disappeared from the palace would not exceed the time of a cup of tea, even if he wanted to escape, he would not be able to escape far.

At the same time, all the gates of Kaifeng were closed by Wu Song, and no one was allowed to enter or leave.

Even the "secret passages" where beggars frequently come and go in the city are monitored by the defenders ordered by Wu Song. Now the city of Kaifeng is under martial law, and it can be said that not a single bird can fly out.

Therefore, Yan Qing guessed that Zhao Ji and his group were still in the city.

And the biggest possibility is that it is hidden in a building on both sides of this street that is several miles long.

Kaifeng Jinyiwei and the manpower brought by Yan Qing have exceeded 500 people.Yan Qing suddenly slapped the table, gritted his teeth and said: "Lady, you lead people to search from house to house from north to south, and a certain person leads people from north to south. Let's divide our troops into two groups, and we must find Zhao Ji in the shortest possible time!"

Li Lan knew the seriousness of the problem, so she didn't say much, and immediately led more than a hundred female Jinyiwei and two or three hundred Jinyiwei to lead away.

Yan Qing led the main force of Jinyiwei to search from house to house.

Yan Qing was very anxious, at this moment, he could no longer care whether he wanted to disturb the people.

If something happened to Zhao Ji, or Zhao Ji was allowed to escape, it would be a very difficult situation for Dayan and the emperor.

The emperor's previous plans and preparations were all in vain.

……

Xinglong silk and satin village.

This is a three-story wooden building, and there is a secret room downstairs, which is several meters deep underground.

Jin Yiwei and the Kaifeng defenders searched the streets with great fanfare. Naturally, it was impossible to hide the truth from Zhao Ji, Wang Huan and others who were hiding in Xinglong Silk and Satin Village.

More than a dozen people including Wang Huan sneaked Zhao Ji out of the palace through the secret passage. They wanted to sneak out of the city immediately, but before they had time, martial law began in the city, and the city gates that had just been opened also began to close.

Knowing that the incident was exposed, Wang Huan could only temporarily hide in Xinglong Silk and Satin Village waiting for help.

Zhao Ji was very nervous and flustered in the underground secret room.

He looked at Wang Huan and kept asking what was going on, how to get out, and whether there would be any problems. It didn't take long for Wang Huan, who was already uneasy, to ask him, making him flustered.

Wang Huan stomped his feet angrily and said, "Forget it, the officials, we have no idea whether to live or die! You just stay here, people outside can't find this place, at worst, let's hide in the secret room for a few days. Let the wind die down, and then find a way to get out of the city."

The corner of Zhao Ji's mouth twitched.

The attitude of this group of people in front of him is very bad, how can there be the slightest respect that the subjects treat the emperor?

Even this Wang Huan had put on a vicious face at this moment, Zhao Ji knew something was wrong and regretted it too late.

In the current situation, even if they escaped from Kaifeng City and arrived in Hangzhou, this group of people may not be able to really think of themselves as the emperor of the Song Dynasty.

Zhao Ji felt annoyed, but there was nothing he could do about it. Now that he had reached this point, there was no way for him to retreat.

To put it bluntly, outside the palace, he is nothing.

The former emperor of Song Dynasty... was nothing more than a ripped tiger skin, which seemed to be very majestic.

The more Zhao Ji thought about it, the more annoyed he became, the more he thought about it, the more afraid he became, and the more he thought about it, the more irritable and frightened he became. He couldn't control his emotions for a while, and couldn't help squatting on the ground and crying.

Wang Huan was furious, and Cang Lang drew his sword out of its sheath, and put the blade under Zhao Ji's neck: "Shut up! Or I'll kill you!"

Wang Huan's face was ferocious, and at the critical moment, he had completely bared his fangs.

Zhao Ji was so frightened that his face turned ashen, and he sat on the ground paralyzed, but he didn't dare to cry any more.

There was a faint noise from the shop above. Wang Huan knew that it was Jin Yiwei who had entered to search, and he felt a little nervous. He held his sword at his side, and stared at Zhao Ji coldly, his eyes flashing fiercely.

He remembered the last ultimate mission.

If it is really impossible to escape and fail to achieve the purpose of abducting Zhao Ji and going to the south of the Yangtze River, then he can only end Zhao Ji's life with one knife, and then put the blame on Emperor Yan.

The mastermind behind the scenes will take the opportunity to spread all kinds of gossip and use Zhao Ji's death to manipulate public opinion to put pressure on the emperor.

Anyway, there are many princes of Zhao Ji, in Luoyang, besides Zhao Fu, there are several young ones.

Any one of these people who is taken hostage to Jiangnan will be the best puppet prop.

Jin Yiwei searched all the way, but found no clues of Zhao Ji and related suspicious persons, Yan Qing was very anxious, and his face became more and more gloomy.

The owner of Xinglong Silk and Satin Village is a businessman in his thirties, with a round face and small eyes, and a secular smile that merchants are used to.

He accompanied Jin Yiwei to investigate the silk and satin village from the bottom up, but just as Jin Yiwei was about to leave, Yan Qing inadvertently found out of the corner of his eye that this man's smooth forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.

It was early spring at this time, and it was not yet the season of sweating. Yan Qing's heart moved, and he immediately turned to look at the other party coldly, and said indifferently: "Listen to your accent, is your master from Luoyang?"

The boss of Xinglong silk and satin shop nodded and bowed with a smile: "yes, speaking to my lord, the villain is from Luoyang. However, it has been 20 years since I opened a silk and satin shop in Tokyo and operated Hang Jin."

Yan Qing's eyes were deep: "You are only a little older, have you opened a silk and satin shop for 20 years?"

The boss smiled charmingly: "My lord, this shop was passed on to the villain by my father, the villain..."

Before this person finished speaking, Yan Qing waved his hands impatiently and said coldly: "Okay, if you find someone suspicious, report it to Kaifeng Jinyiwei as soon as possible. If you dare not report it, you won't have to do business in the future."

The boss nodded again and again, Yan Qing gave him one last deep look, turned around and stepped out of the silk and satin village.

Take Jin Yiwei to the next restaurant called Xinghua Village.

But at the gate of Xinghua Village, Yan Qing suddenly lowered his voice to Niu Lan, who was beside Jinyiwei Baihu, and said lightly: "Niu Baihu, send someone to Ben Hou to keep an eye on Xinglong Silk and Satin Village in secret, and if there is any trouble, come to Ben Hou immediately. report."

Niu Lan bowed to accept the order and left.
