Rebirth: The little puppet emperor, tearing apart the regent with his own hands

Yu Wenzhang frowned, and there was a hint of anger in his tone: "You mean, Feng Bao and the man in black were kidnapped under the heavy guard of you Xuanyu Guards?"

Wu Yan lowered his head and remained silent. People are indeed looked down upon by them. No matter how they try to excuse themselves, they cannot escape from doing things poorly.

Yu Wenzhang looked at Wu Yan coldly and said, "You know the rules. After this matter is over, go and receive the punishment yourself."

Wu Yan kowtowed and said, "I accept the order."

Yu Wenwen had a cold face. He originally thought that Jia Xin must have run away after hearing the news, but he didn't expect that he was still secretly scheming with Chen Cang in the city.

"I didn't go to find him, but he came to my door..." Yu Wenwen murmured.

Wu Yan heard the murderous intent in Yu Wenzhang's words and couldn't help but shudder. He knew that Lord Yuwen was really angry this time. If we don't kill a group of people, the fire probably won't go down.

"Feng Bao ran away. Did the person who robbed him stay?" Yu Wenwen asked.

Wu Yan lowered his head, feeling a little ashamed: "They are all dead."

Yu Wenzhang: "Dead?"

Wu Yan: "They sacrificed a group of people to stay behind. They were all dead soldiers. Seeing that there was no hope of escape, they all bit out the poison hidden in their mouths and died..."

Yu Wenzhang's brows frowned more and more: "Have you searched their bodies? What did you find?"

Wu Yan felt even more ashamed: "They are all unfamiliar faces, and there is nothing to prove their identity..."

Yu Wenzhang: "They are strong and well-trained, which means they are raised by others. I heard that there are many of them, so this organization is not small.

At present, there are epidemics everywhere in Qinzhou, but they are very healthy. They either don't go out often, or they are not from Qinzhou.

He is so familiar with the Prefect's Mansion. He must have been raised in the Prefect's Mansion before. Have you seen his weapons? "

Wu Yan: "Look, they are all ordinary swords."

Yu Wenwen: "The blacksmiths of the Western Wei Dynasty have data records in each county. In order to prevent them from forging swords privately, it is stipulated that they must engrave their names and weapon numbers on them. Let me ask you, the swords of those dead soldiers Are there any of these marks on it?”

Wu Yan thought for a while, and then affirmed: "Yes. Can I ask my subordinates to go to the blacksmith shop?"

Yu Wenzhang: "What are you asking? If you ask, he will definitely say that they didn't make it, and it's all fake."

Wu Yan: "But with such a large number of swords, it would be extremely difficult to leave no traces."

Yu Wenwen said: "There must be a secret passage in the prefect's mansion. You should take someone to check it out.

In addition, there is no need to show mercy to Jia Xin's wife, children, and children. Use all the methods you know to pry out the information I want from their mouths. Go ahead. "

Wu Yan accepted the order and stood up to leave. Yu Wenzhang looked at the deep moonlight, but what he was thinking about was the dispute in the court.

"No wonder I've become a lot tougher recently. I see..." Yu Wenzhang said softly.

When the first light appeared in the eastern sky, Yu Wenwen was already ready to go. He said to Wu Yan: "You don't have to go into the mountain, just meet at the bottom of the mountain. Let your people divide into three groups, one at the foot of the mountain, one on the mountainside, and the rest. The servants work in pairs and patrol the entire mountain, remembering to be prepared with smoke.

If we don't come down before dark, we will attack the mountain. If we find anyone suspicious, we will arrest him immediately.

Our trip to the mountain this time is very likely to be their plan, so we have to be on guard. If anything happens to me, you will take His Majesty back to the capital immediately.

Let him immediately detain Li Zhi no matter what method he uses, transfer Sun Heng out, and find a way to stabilize Li Hu. For the rest, someone will naturally tell him what to do. "

Wu Yan accepted the order, but he still couldn't help but said: "Sir! This trip is very dangerous, so let me let my subordinates go into the mountain. Your Majesty has a body of gold, so you can't be careless in the slightest."

Yu Wenwen said with a half-smile: "Just them, to be honest, they are a bunch of rats, they are still far behind..."

After saying that, Yu Wenzhang ignored Wu Yan. He flicked his long whip and said, "Let's go!"

Wu Yan looked at Yu Wenzhang's back and felt a little worried. He had a bad feeling that something might happen this time.

"Sir, you must be careful and come back safely..." Wu Yan murmured.

Qi Yangshan is neither small nor big. It wasn't until noon that Yu Wenwen and his party reached the top of the mountain.

Without the cover of trees, the view from the top of the mountain is unobstructed. On the top of the mountain, a huge platform was cleared and surrounded by fences. At first glance, it looked like a quarry, but it was a little messy.

A river about seven to eight feet long poured down around this platform, gurgling down the mountain.

In the center of the field there is a paved road, wide enough for two carriages to run parallel.

Looking along the road, there is a huge cave at the end.

Yu Wenzhang ordered a group of people to go check it out, while he sat on horseback and looked at the surrounding things.

It seems that there were traces of people here not long ago, but they left later. It was obvious that they left in a hurry. Many things were not packed away, and some wood was left scattered on the ground.

Thinking of those long arrows in the prefect's mansion, Yu Wenwen became convinced, and then became angry. He originally thought that this place would be a private mine at most, but he didn't expect that Jia Xin was so bold that he turned this place into a secret base for making weapons.

There must be more than one way down the mountain, otherwise how come no villagers discovered what they were doing?

But there are no other roads around, so there are two possibilities. First, the road down the mountain is hidden in the middle of the mountain. This is the most hidden and least easy to find.

Second, the way down the mountain is on the back side of Jiyang Mountain.

The specific situation still has to wait until the explorers come back.

About half an hour later, the explorers came back one after another. They reported everything they found to Yu Wenwen.

Yu Wenzhang's expectation was good. There was indeed a road going down the mountain on the back side of the mountain. There were also many ruts on the road. However, no trace of anyone was found.

Yu Wenzhang nodded. It seemed that there was no ambush around.

Then he looked at the cave. Currently, only the people who went to explore the cave have not returned.

After another half an hour, a figure suddenly appeared in the cave. The figure just poked his head, and after seeing a large group of people outside, quickly shrank back.

Yu Wenzhang could clearly see that it was an unkempt man, not anyone he sent to explore the road.

Yu Wenzhang frowned, knowing that something must have happened in the cave. So he ordered: "Catch him."

The man was at the entrance of the cave and didn't go far. He was quickly caught and carried to Yu Wenwen.

As soon as he got closer, a pungent rancid smell penetrated Yu Wenwen's nose. Yu Wenzhang frowned, looked at him condescendingly, and asked, "Who is he?"

The man slowly raised his head when he heard the words. He was so disheveled that he could not recognize his appearance. Only his eyes were clean. However, there was no emotion inside, just numbness.

He raised his head and his lips seemed to move, but in the end he said nothing and slowly lowered his head.

Yu Wenwen said: "I am Sima Yu Wenwen of the Great Wei Dynasty. The purpose of this trip is to inquire about the epidemic situation in Qinzhou. I already know the character of Jia Xin, the prefect of Qinzhou, and I am currently hunting him down. If you have any grievances, you can tell me. …”

Hearing this, the man suddenly raised his head again and looked at Yu Wenzhang blankly for a long time. Then he raised his finger slightly and pointed at the cave not far away.

When he spoke, his voice was hoarse and unpleasant, as if he hadn't spoken for many years.

"Sir... there is... a secret passage in the cave... and there are... mechanisms... Prefect Jia Xin... left from the secret passage..."

After saying all this, the man swayed and fell to the ground.

Yu Wenzhang ordered people to take care of him, and then led people into the cave. Since this person can come out, it means there is still a way inside.

The cave was pitch black, and there was a strong, pungent rotten smell. Yu Wenwen ordered people to light torches and put on special anti-epidemic face masks before continuing to walk inside.

The cave was very deep and could not be seen to the end. Yu Wenwen was very cautious and kept observing the surrounding environment.

There was nothing at first. After walking for a while, some arrows appeared on the ground. There were not many at first, but then they became more and more dense. Some of them still had rags hanging on them. They were obviously from people. Rubbed off the body.

Yu Wenzhang frowned. These were the clothes of Xuan Yuwei, the soldiers who explored the road before.

Going further inside, Yu Wenzhang found a half-open stone door, with only a small gap open enough for one person to enter and exit.

Next to the small slit, two people were lying motionless. They were the soldiers who had explored the road before. Their backs were to Yu Wenzhang, with many arrows stuck in their bodies, and they had been dead for a long time.

Yu Wenzhang thought of the man who came out of the cave before. He also had many injuries on his body, but they didn't look like they were shot by arrows, but marks of being beaten with a whip.

Not surprisingly, he climbed out of here. Yu Wenwen nodded to the person next to him. The person understood, holding a shield, he cautiously approached the stone crevice, then held a torch and looked inside.

It didn't matter. It almost scared him to death. He ran back quickly and said with a pale face: "Sir, there are all dead people in Shimen and that Shimen..."

The Xuanyu Guards are all soldiers who have experienced hundreds of battles, and they cannot be frightened like this by ordinary dead people.

Yu Wenwen took the torch and walked forward slowly. The sight in front of him made him frown and feel a little uncomfortable in his heart.

I saw a dense crowd of people lying on the ground inside the stone gate. They were all corpses, piled up in layers around the stone gate. They had long since rotted, and the strong stench came from those corpses.

Some people present couldn't help but started to retching, and Yu Wenzhang shouted: "Don't take off your scarf! The epidemic in Qinzhou is very likely to spread from here!"

After giving the instructions, Yu Wenzhang opened the heavy stone door with one hand, picked up a place where he could put his feet, and walked through the corridor made of corpses bit by bit.

He had already seen that there was a stone door deeper into the cave, which might contain the answers to all these mysteries.
