Underground Chamber of the Prime Minister's Mansion in Xuchang

"Very good! Now that the city of Ye has been destroyed, the remnants of the Yuan family are no longer to be regretted. You and others have contributed a lot to this battle in Hebei. This prime minister will reward you well!" A slightly short but imposing man, Full of majesty, the middle-aged man who was about 50 years old and dressed in a crown and costume said domineeringly.

"Thank you, my lord!" The three men knelt on one knee at the same time and faced the middle-aged man.

"By the way, four years have passed, is there any news about Qingfeng?" The middle-aged man sat up and said.

"My lord! I just received the news from Jinglei that Qingfeng is now in the Jingxiang Nine Counties area, but strangely Jinglei didn't tell me the exact location. I wonder if there is something unspeakable?" The age is about 35 years old. The thin man in Tsing Yi replied cautiously.

"What's the reason?" The middle-aged man's tone was calm and pretentious.

"Reporting to my lord, four years ago, Jinglei sent a letter to come here in Chaisang. Some time ago, he said that he was in Changsha County, but not long ago, he didn't say whether he was still in Changsha County or not?"

"Commander, you really disappointed me. As the commander of the Shadow Assassin Corps created by this old man, you can't even know the whereabouts of your subordinates. If you are asked to spy on the military situation in the future, do you also act like this? "The middle-aged man scolded.

"This subordinate is incompetent! Please punish me, my lord!" The man in Tsing Yi was trembling at this moment.

"My lord, I have something to report!" The gray-clothed long-clothed man who was about 30 years old beside the green-clothed man said.

"speak!"

"No! My lord, I overheard that Xu Du's city defense map was lost. I wonder if it's true or not?" the man in gray asked tentatively.

"Commander, the old man hid the map of the city defense in this secret room back then, and only you knew about it, but it disappeared today? What's going on?"

The thing that the man in Tsing Yi feared the most was coming, and he secretly groaned in his heart.Regarding the matter of the city defense map, I have been hiding in a very hidden place in the secret room. One day four years ago, I found that Qingfeng walked out of the secret room in a panic. After Qingfeng left, I went to check it out. After a while, no one will discover the location of the top-secret Tibetan map, and the city defense map is still there.

I don’t want the city defense map to disappear along with Qingfeng after the incident of Yidai Zhao. I went to look for Qingfeng earlier, and I also asked about the city defense map. , did not dare to speak clearly to the lord, and at that time, the war in Hebei was urgent, and there was an urgent need to spy on Yuan Jun's military situation.

"My lord, this subordinate should be damned! This subordinate thinks that the city defense map disappeared together with Qingfeng, so the city defense map must still be there!" At this time, the man in Tsing Yi was already sweating profusely, and his body was trembling non-stop.

"Commander, I didn't expect the old man to trust you all the time, entrusting you with such an important matter. You need to know that if the defense map of the capital falls into the hostile princes of our army, the consequences will be disastrous!" Sitting up The middle-aged man suddenly stood up and flew into a rage.

Looking at the furious middle-aged man, the gray-clothed man was extremely proud, but his face was calm at all.At this time, the man in Tsing Yi knelt on his knees and said: "My lord, this subordinate deserves to die, please punish me, my lord!"

"Come on! Drag the commander out and chop him off!" the middle-aged man Thunder shouted.Soon, two masked men came in from outside the secret room and dragged the man in Tsing Yi away.

"My lord, calm down! Since the Great Commander has followed the lord for more than ten years, he has made a lot of contributions. I hope that the lord will be punished lightly and allow him to take the crime and make meritorious deeds!" The man with the scar on the side of the gray-clothed man begged bitterly.

"Wait! Let go of the commander first!" The middle-aged man lowered his head and pondered for a while.Then he said: "What Li Huo said is true. Gao Shan has also followed this old man for more than ten years, and he has made a lot of contributions, but this old man is a person who clearly distinguishes rewards and punishments. If you have meritorious service, you will be rewarded, and if you have done something wrong, you will be punished. Come on, drag it out of the secret room and punish five people." Ten army sticks!"

"Thank you, my lord, for not killing me!" The man in Tsing Yi kowtowed three times.

For this punishment, the man in the gray robe was somewhat dissatisfied deep down in his heart, and his dissatisfaction with the man with the scar was added.After punishing the fifty army sticks, the man in Tsing Yi dragged his exhausted body back to the secret room again.

The middle-aged man standing in front of the table glanced at the man in Tsing Yi and said: "The city defense map is very important for the safety of Xudu. In charge, when you go to Changsha County in a few days, you must bring back Qingfeng and the city defense map, Gaoshan, you are now under the command of Youlin, I hope you will take the blame and do meritorious service, and don't let the old man down!"

"No!" The three men took orders at the same time.

Ten days later, the man in the gray robe, the man in the blue robe, and the man with the scar appeared in Changsha County together. These three men were none other than the secluded forest, the mountain and the raging fire. Since the three of them accepted the order, they rushed to the place without stopping. Changsha County, on the second day after arriving in Changsha County, You Lin quickly organized a team to search the entire process.

"Ma'am, do you know the woman in the painting?"

"Brother, do you know the woman in this painting?"

"Master, do you know the woman in the painting in my hand?"

"do not know!"

"Sorry, I don't know you!"

"The old man doesn't know."

After questioning dozens of people in Changsha City in succession, they found nothing. When You Lin learned about it, he became furious. Just as he was about to scold his subordinates, suddenly one of his subordinates whispered in his ears, and You Lin smiled openly.

"What's your name?" You Lin questioned.

"The villain's name is Chen Wen."

"Do you really know the person in this painting?"

"My lord, I only feel that there are five points of similarity, and I can't say that they are completely alike!"

"Say it! Say it!" Li Huoliao on the side hurriedly urged.

"Yes! My lord, the person in the painting looks a bit like Dr. Li, a female doctor in the prefect's mansion. It took me a long time to recognize the villain. I don't know if it's right?" Chen Wenzhuang answered boldly and a little nervously.

"Then where is Dr. Li now?"

"My lord, I was in the prefect's mansion a month ago, and then I disappeared. As for where I went, I really don't know!"

"Forget it! This is a reward for you." You Lin casually took out a bunch of five baht coins and threw them to Chen Wen, then led his men back to the inn.

Changsha County Pleasure Inn

"You Lin... No, Grand Commander, didn't you find out the news before, and you didn't leave anyone alive? Why did the Grand Commander show mercy today and didn't kill that Chen Wen? Could it be that the Grand Commander has changed his nature? "Gao Shan mocked slightly after drinking a good cup of tea.

"Commander Gao Shan, now that XX is the Great Commander, you don't need to intervene in what to do. Besides, the villager only said five points, and he is not sure whether it is Qingfeng. It is useless to kill him. Tonight, XX will personally go to the prefect's mansion to find out. You are waiting here."

"Follow the commander's order!" Gao Shan replied casually.

In the late autumn night, accompanied by gusts of cold wind, the sweet-scented osmanthus trees in the prefect's mansion were blown recklessly. Under the shadow of the moon, a black shadow flashed past and disappeared into the prefect's mansion.At this time, Han Xuan was dozing off in the hall of the prefect's mansion.A shout of pushing the door woke Han Xuan up. At this time, the staff of the king who was pushing the door and Han Xuan, who had just recovered from his shock, were stunned. An extremely sharp long sword with a cold light pointed directly at Han Xuan's throat. If Han Xuan made a slight movement accidentally, he might die on the spot.

Han Xuanpiao glanced at the man in gray and long gown, then said tremblingly:

"This chivalrous man, why did you come to the old man's prefect's mansion today? Can you put down the sword first?"

You Lin drifted a glance at Han Xuan and his staff, and said coldly: "I just wanted to verify a piece of news today."

"What's the news? Please show me the chivalrous man." Wang's aide was relieved.

You Lin took out Qingfeng's portrait, and then said: "I heard that this girl appeared in the prefect's mansion, I want to know if it's true?"

Han Xuan glanced at it briefly, then shook his head and said, "Hero, I don't know this woman!"

A trace of murderous intent flashed across You Lin's eyes, and the Wang's staff, who could see clearly from the side, quickly winked and signaled Han Xuandao: "Master Taishou, if you take a closer look, maybe you can remember it?"

The moment he felt the approach of death, Han Xuan immediately understood the signal of the king's staff, and hurriedly replied: "Chevalier, can you let go of the sword first? The old man should take a closer look!"

You Lin loosened the long sword slowly, and said coldly; "Master Taishou, since a certain can easily appear in your mansion without being discovered by your prefect's guards, I believe you are also familiar with a certain martial arts, don't even think about it." What kind of tricks are you playing, or your life will be taken in an instant!"

Han Xuan broke into a cold sweat and said: "Don't worry, chivalrous man, of course your martial arts old man understands that I won't let the guards in. My life is in your hands first, so I dare not be presumptuous! Let the old man take a closer look!"

Han Xuan stared at Qingfeng's portrait for a long time, and suddenly, a familiar face flashed in his mind. Her outline was [-]% similar to the woman in the portrait.As if grabbing a life-saving straw, he said ecstatically, "Chevalier, after looking at it for a long time, I can almost confirm that the woman in this painting is Dr. Li Jing."

"Oh? Your Majesty's words are serious!" You Lin asked back.

"It's absolutely true! Then Li Jing lived in the prefect's mansion for a while, so I can be sure!"

"Very good, but where is Li Jing now, please tell the prefect!"

"Tell you? Why? You haven't counted the things you threatened the old man just now?" Han Xuan, who retreated to the door of the prefect's hall, suddenly called out.

"It seems that the prefect does not cry when he sees the coffin! No one in this world dares to refuse a question." You Lin was about to draw his sword and stab Han Xuan, but he didn't expect that dozens of archers were already aiming at him. .

"Hmph! Just because you and the archers want to block someone's way?" You Lin mocked Han Xuan, his eyes full of disdain.

"Your Excellency is superb in martial arts, the captain of this school already knows it by heart, but the arrows of my bow and arrow are all poisonous arrowheads. As long as the poison is on the clothes, you will either die or be disabled. Would you like to try it?" Yang Ling, who was invited in by the staff, sneered.

"I'm not scared!"

"Really?" After speaking, Yang Ling took an arrow and poked lightly at the cloth torn off from her body, and the cloth quickly rotted.

You Lin was horrified when he saw this.Xindao: I was too impatient just now, I only noticed Han Xuan, and didn't pay much attention to the staff member, let him sneak out to report the letter, really damn it.But the space here is small, so getting out is not a problem, but I'm afraid that if I accidentally get on the poisonous arrow and let the poison get on my body, then this operation will not be worth the loss.You Lin suddenly thought of the rumors among the people in Changsha City about Li Jing and the prefect's feud, and immediately, a clever plan came to his mind.

"Master Taishou, why are you so tense? You Lin just came here to find out the news, and I also heard that Li Jing had humiliated Your Excellency, don't you want to take revenge?" You Lin put away the long sword in his hand, and said strangely smiled.

When he heard that Li Jing had rejected her apology and marriage proposal, and the humiliation of Zhang Yi at the banquet, Han Xuan couldn't help but get angry, and the anger came from it.Since Yang Ling searched for Li Jing's hiding place last time, she sent someone to check it out secretly for the second time. She didn't want the place to be full of traps and many of her personal guards were killed or injured. The doctor in Xun Xun City rationed the highly poisonous poison to smear on the bow and arrow, but it turned out that Zhang Yi didn't come, but today it was used on the gray-clothed man.

"Hmph, revenge, that's the old man's own business, you don't need to worry about it."

"Really? Lord Prefect, I heard that Lord Prefect seems to have lost many troops in vain for revenge. I don't know if it's true or not?" You Lin sneered.

"So what?"

"Since this is the case, it would be great. The prefect wants to take revenge, but there is no one available, and the Li Jing who is looking for is the one the prefect wants to take revenge on. Besides, from this point of view, Why not make a deal?"

"What deal?"

"Master Taishou told XX about the exact location of Li Jing, so that XX could avenge the Lord Prefect? ​​I don't know what the lord Taishou wants?"

"Why do you think the old man will agree?"

"Of course the Lord Prefect will agree, because I still know how the Lord Prefect got the position of Prefect?"

"What do you mean, sir, I don't understand?" Han Xuan pretended.

"It doesn't matter if the prefect doesn't understand, someone will let the prefect understand!" Then he took out the cloth with Han Xuan's forged Zhang Lue's handwriting from his arms and threw it to Han Xuan. After seeing it, Han Xuan's expression changed drastically.Seeing this, Yang Ling motioned for the archers to release arrows at any time.

"How could you have it?"

"Master Taishou, tell your subordinates to take it easy. Is there still more information that I know? Do you want me to continue talking?"

"Lieutenant Yang, you lead the archers down first."

"Master Taishou, if you really trust this person, you will be afraid that he will harm you in the end!"

"Since this person wants something from us, he won't do anything to the old man, let's go!" Han Xuan reprimanded.

"No!" Yang Ling and dozens of archers retreated together.Only You Lin, Han Xuan, and Wang's staff were left in the hall.

"Master Taishou, that's right!"

"Who is your Excellency? You can know so many things about this old man!"

"Master Taishou, it doesn't matter who someone is, the key is that you and I have a common goal."

Han Xuan thought for a long time: "Since that's the case, the old man promised to tell your Excellency that Li Jing is now in a dilapidated thatched cottage ten miles north of the city, but now it is full of traps. Some time ago, the old man sent people to damage a lot of soldiers. "

"Oh? This is new news."
