One Piece of Song Dynasty

Zhao Yun said thoughtfully: "Well, what Brother Liang said is true. It seems that we really can't commit mass murder."

Liang Xing said: "Yes, so for the sake of smooth operation in the future, we cannot go on a killing spree this time. Everyone has heard that it is best to knock people unconscious in this operation. We must not kill people unless it is absolutely necessary."

Everyone whispered: "Yes, Commander."

Liang Xing and others followed Xiao Shunzi and approached Yelu Yuliyan's residence along a secluded path, knocking out several Liao soldiers along the way.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, Xiao Shunzi said: "Sir, the eldest princess's residence is just ahead."

Liang Xing nodded and said: "Okay, you and the two of you will wait here while the others deal with the surrounding guards as planned. I'll say it again, try not to kill anyone unless absolutely necessary."

A quarter of an hour later, Liang Xing, Zhao Yun and others quietly eliminated the guards around Yelu Yuliyan's residence and arrived at the door of Yelu Yuliyan's residence.

Liang Xing motioned to Zhao Yun and said: "Brother Zhao, light the incense and insert it through the cracks in the door and window."

Zhao Yun and others lit the incense and inserted it into the house. After half of the stick of incense was burned, Liang Xing sent someone to call Xiao Shunzi, and everyone quietly entered the house together.

Seeing no reaction in the room, Liang Xing took Xiao Shunzi to the bed. Liang Xing lit a candle and looked at a woman sleeping in thick clothes. It was already the ninth month of the lunar calendar and the north had entered the late autumn season. At night It was still very cold. Although this woman wrapped herself very thickly, she could still see her proud figure and charming face.

Liang Xing asked by candlelight: "Xiao Shunzi, this girl is Yelu Yuliyan, the eldest princess of Emperor Tianzuo."

Xiao Shunzi looked at it and replied: "Reporting to your lord, this girl is the eldest princess."

Liang Xing thought to himself: No wonder the adults can't forget her. This girl is really beautiful.

Liang Xing instructed everyone to tie up Yelu Yuliyan, wrap him up in a quilt and said, "Okay, let's withdraw."

Liang Xing and others picked up Yelu Yuliyan and followed Xiao Shunzi back along the original path. When they were about to reach the garden, something happened.

Liang Xing and Xiao Shunzi were walking in front of the team and heard voices in front of them. Liang Xing motioned for everyone to hide first.

Liang Xing and Xiao Shunzi tiptoed forward, only to hear someone in front say: "Why is there someone sitting here?"

Liang Xing thought that the patrolling garrison must have discovered the knocked out Liao soldiers.

I heard someone say from the front: "This person is not dead, he is still alive, and he is not injured. He must be lazy and fell asleep."

A voice that looked like an official ordered: "Wake him up and see if anything happened."

After a while, I heard the man say again: "Sir, this man is sleeping too hard. What should we do if we can't wake him up?"

The official replied: "Take him back, wake him up, and then ask him what happened."

The patrol team soon took the man away. Before the patrol team noticed anything unusual, Liang Xing hurried back and directed everyone back to the tunnel entrance.

After Liang Xing and others changed their clothes, they said: "Xiao Shunzi, these three clothes will be returned to you two. This is forty taels of silver. You and Xiao Dezi will share the reward for this action equally. You can't take it all for yourself. If someone finds out, you know the consequences. Besides, as long as you work hard with someone, your money will be indispensable in the future. Don't ruin your own future just for this little money. Okay, just go back and think of it. Nothing happened.”

Xiao Shunzi clasped his fists and said, "Yes, sir, I understand."

After Liang Xing, Zhao Yun and others left the tunnel and returned to Liang Mansion with Yelu Yuliyan, Liang Xing said to Zhao Yun: "Brother Zhao, it's up to you to get out of the city. After dawn, someone will let Niu San go out of the city alone. Your Just take Yelu Yuliyan out of the city and hand it over to Niu San, and I will ask Niu San to escort Yelu Yuliyan to Tianxiang Tower in Cangzhou."

Zhao Yun replied: "Okay, Brother Liang, leave this matter to someone."

After saying that, Zhao Yun called Zhang Xiaosi and said: "Xiaosi, you and others tie the woman under the carriage, gag her, let her smell some incense, and open the city gate at dawn. Just drive out of the city and deliver this girl to Niu San, the bodyguard led by Commander Liang, and that will complete the mission."

Zhang Xiaosi replied: "Yes, sir, I understand."

Zhao Yun continued to instruct: "After you are done, you can hide in our safe house outside the city for a few days. After a while, when it is safe, someone will ask someone to find you. This is twenty taels of silver. You can take it for a while." cost of living.”

Zhang Xiaosi cupped his fists and said, "Yes, Xiaosi thanked you."

Zhao Yun is giving instructions to Zhang Xiaosi here, and Liang Xing is also giving instructions to Niu San over there.

Liang Xing patted Niu San and said: "Niu San, after dawn, you take people alone to the outside of the city. Don't follow the carriage. After picking up Yelu Yuliyan outside the city, immediately escort her safely along our path. When you get to Cangzhou Tianxiang Tower, your mission will be completed."

Niu San cupped his fists and said, "Yes, Mr. Lang, I understand."

Liang Xing continued: "Don't go back to the city immediately when you come back. Take your brothers and stay in our safe house outside the city for a few days. We have fifty taels of silver here, which is enough for you to eat and drink for a few days. When the city is safe, Someone will send someone to find you."

Niu San replied: "Yes, I have thanked Mr. Lang."

At dawn, Liang Xing calculated that it was almost time to open the city gate, so he asked Niu San and Zhang Xiaosi to take action independently.

When everything was ready, they went on their way. When Zhang Xiaosi arrived at Kaiyangmen, the city gate had just opened. Kaiyangmen is located to the south of Xijin Mansion in Nanjing. Zhang Xiaosi followed the flow of people out of the city smoothly.

Not long after leaving the city, Zhang Xiaosi met Niu San and others in a forest who had also left the city.

Zhang Xiaosi said: "Brother Niu, I have brought him out for you, and I will leave the rest to you."

Niu San cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, brother. You can go back now. We'll leave now. When brother comes back, I'll treat you to dinner."

Niu San and others moved Yelu Yuliyan who was tied under the car to the car. Maybe the incense was more effective. Yelu Yuliyan was still asleep. Niu San put his finger under Yuliyan's nose to feel it. After a while, he vented his anger normally, Niu San breathed a sigh of relief, he was fine, and then Niu San and others drove to Cangzhou.

However, the Imperial City of Nanjing was in chaos at this time. In the morning, Emperor Tianzuo had just woken up and put on his clothes when he heard someone outside the door shouting: "The emperor is not good, the princess is missing."

Emperor Tianzuo ordered someone to open the palace door, and saw a woman running in, crying and kneeling down and saying: "Your Majesty, the princess is missing."

Emperor Tian Zuo took a closer look and saw that this was not the palace maid next to Yu Liyan, so he asked: "You mean my daughter Yu Liyan is missing?"

The palace maid replied: "Back to the emperor, it is the princess of Shu who has disappeared."
