?In the evening, Yuwen Wen returned to the mansion exhausted. After struggling in the state prison for a long time, he finally got back from work. He was about to wash away all the dust, but he heard the guard leader Zhang Dingfa ask for a meeting, so he had a "conference" with the other party in the study.

"Someone peeked into the mansion?" Yuwen Wen was stunned at first and then asked with a smile. It was strange that the other party did not send people to "watch" during his time in office.

"What's your mind?"

Zhang Dingfa said that there is no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days, so the better way is to catch one person and throw him into prison for a few days. The more cruel one is to make the other party "disappear out of thin air". After these troubles, no one dared to come.

His wife Liu Caiyun worked in the mansion. Because she finally got pregnant with his flesh and blood, if something happened to the Xiyang County Duke's mansion, the former horse bandit leader who had already washed his hands and refused to do so would also start to kill.

"Silence the silence will not happen, otherwise the other party will attack the people who are out of the mansion, arrest them and throw them into the state prison for a few days." Yuwen Wen was calm, and Zhang Dingfa is now like an old wolf protecting his cub and doesn't like any slut.

Zhang Dingfa said that according to his observation, more than a group of people were peeping into the mansion, some of whom seemed to be good at this, thought they were a veteran. Yuwen Wen heard the other party say "the veteran" and then asked if he was a "industry insider"?

"The county magistrate must be on guard. If the other party assassinates, it is probably the dead man who ignores the retreat completely to do anything to achieve his goal."

Hearing this comment from professionals, Yuwen Wen did not want his family to take risks even if he was too nervous. He pondered for a moment and made a decision: Zhang Dingfa was fully responsible for dealing with those eyes and ears. If he could teach a lesson, he would capture the lessons that needed to be captured alive. If there were anyone who dared to blow up the thorn, he would do it all the time.

He told Zhang Dingfa to pay attention to the fact that Zhang Chi is too tense every day, it is not a good thing. He will definitely relax over time. Let the guards take a good turn to stop and not make the plants and trees full of soldiers. Yuwen Wen doesn't want to make everyone in the mansion suspicious. It would be fine if they had to do it for a month or two, it would be really crazy.

"From what you see, what will the other party come from?"

"Someone tried to sneak up at night, and it seemed like a veteran. It was said that there were not people who were good at sneaking. The situation was not clear, so the other party was not clear." Zhang Dingfa had seen the 'big scene' so he scoffed at the minions raised by the local local beggars in Bazhou.

"Is it possible that some thief was hired to seek money and kill him?"

"It is very likely. The thieves must come to check out the site before robbing the house." Zhang Dingfa was a little unsure. After all, there was no one to be brought to the house and could not torture the situation. All this is just inference. No thief dared to rob the house of the prefecture city. The only possibility is to assassinate.

Yuwen Wen said that it is better to be loose on the outside and tight on the inside. Be careful of the open and secret whistles inside and outside the mansion. The other party may deliberately test it a few times, which is the so-called "weary plan", so there must be corresponding countermeasures.

He thought for a while and added: "Shopkeeper Wang should also pay attention to the store. Both people and goods must be careful. It is possible if someone deliberately sets fire."

"You must be careful about the trick of luring the tiger away from the mountain. These bastards may be able to do whatever they want to try to attract attention and cover up their real targets. It is possible for me, mansion or shop."

"Don't be afraid of something going on. If it's a big deal, I will take it back!"

......

Under the night, on the edge of the mountains, a villa is brightly lit. The gate of the villa is closed, but two lanterns are hung under the eaves. The words "Bazhou Official Office" are written on the four words "Bazhou Official Office". The sound of insects around the outside of the village is that the people in the village seem to be busy with something.

Bazhou Sima Yang Ji was leading people to patrol the villa. He led the state soldiers and yamen runners to search for many days and finally found the thief villa. Although the building was empty, the monk could not run away. The other party was a little hurried, so there would definitely be clues left.

"Yang Sima, the house that stayed overnight has been sorted out." A state soldier came forward to report that there were many rooms in the villa that should be lived by servants. Tonight, everyone is stationed in this villa and can be used as a dormitory.

"Very good. According to the originally planned list, one hundred people rest and the others are on the night."

He originally had more than 50 subordinates in this villa. It was fine to live in this considerable villa, but there were fewer defenses everywhere. If they were all new soldiers, it would be easy, but most of them were state soldiers who could not fight yet, which would be a bit unreliable.

The thief did leave. If the other party left something important in the villa, it would be impossible to guarantee that he would not be able to kill a shot. Fortunately, a hundred state soldiers with bows, arrows, swords and guns were sent to solve Yang Ji's urgent needs, and 150 people took turns to rest and guard him.

"The structure of the villa is unknown, so you must beware of the other party sneaking in through tunnels, secret doors and other passages. Everyone is more alert to the night and don't wipe their necks."

The intention of being on guard against others is necessary. Yang Ji led the man around the villa for a few rounds to understand the layout and then set up a post in important places to prevent sneak attacks. On the contrary, a double post was set up.

The new soldiers were trained at night, so even if they were not very brave, they were not small, but the state soldiers were not scared. The dark outside the villa was filled with mountains and forests from time to time. There were birds and beasts singing at night sounded a bit creepy. Yang Ji specially set up a double-person post, and each post had at least another post that could be seen to enhance courage and prevent people from touching the post.

Seeing that everything was arranged, Yang Ji was resting in a room, and the soldiers in the state who were in the same room had already snored, but he was tossing and turning, not because of the thunderous snoring but thinking about the case.

"There must be a secret room, but where will the secret room be?" He lay on his back and looked at the roof above and murmured to himself. Since he came inexplicably from the chaos in the late Ming Dynasty more than ten years ago from the turbulent times of the Ming Dynasty more than a thousand years ago, Yang Ji used his architectural skills to help princes and nobles build mansions, so he was quite familiar with the architectural structure of this era. He also knew that many mansions would have secret rooms for emergencies.

There are many uses for secret rooms, such as meeting guests, emergency shelter, storing valuables and even imprisoning important people. Yang Ji looked at the villa today and judged that it should also have a secret room based on past experience.

This Zhuangzi has good feng shui, but if it is surrounded by people, it will be difficult to fly. If the thief leader has some mind, he will definitely set up a secret passage to facilitate his life, or set up a secret room to hide his whereabouts and wait for the limelight before coming out.

However, after searching for it for a long time, there was no clue. It seemed that there was no secret passage or secret room in this villa. Yang Ji was also very concerned about whether he could find important clues in this villa and whether the case could be solved.

Squinted his eyes, he recalled every room and courtyard in the villa he had searched for in his mind over and over again. Since he could not find any valuable clues from the perspective of the searcher, he would think from the perspective of the user.

According to Yuwen Wen, this is called "thinking from the perspective of a cat". Since it cannot be seen from the perspective of a cat, then look at it from the perspective of a mouse. According to the information found before, the thief in Zhuangzi had detained some women in this place, which is inferred as a place of fun.

In order to prevent the government from suddenly searching, hiding the accused women or robbers is also a requirement. Since this is the case, the secret room must be ventilated to avoid suffocating people.

Yang Ji began to recall the structure of various buildings. The secret room did not have to be specially equipped with a room that was nearly fully enclosed, or it could be a wall or a cellar. However, the possibility of a simple cellar was very low because of inconvenient ventilation and could not hide for a long time.

The opening of the secret room requires a switch. When the wealthy family reached this point, they would not let outsiders design it, but used their own reliable craftsmanship. Therefore, Yang Ji did not have the opportunity to involve this step, of course he would not involve it either. Some things are known to be less and longer.

Even so, he probably had some experience in setting up secret rooms. As scenes flashed through his mind, he denied the possibility of hiding secret rooms one by one. As time passed, he placed his doubts target in a place.

"Is it that it's there?" Yang Ji said to himself and sat up. He rushed out the door but stopped but turned around and called the Zhou soldiers who were sleeping in the room.

"Hurry up, go smash the wall with me!"

Several state soldiers sat up sleepily and had not yet come to their senses, but heard shouts coming from somewhere outside the room. The shouts were like stones thrown into the calm pool of water, and for a moment, the footsteps sounded one after another, as if they were rushing towards the place where the shouts were made.

"Don't be messed up, don't be messed up! Keep the guard at the ward and be careful to lure the tiger out of the mountain!" Yang Ji picked up his sword and rushed out of the door and shouted loudly. He suddenly didn't know what happened, but the first thing was to keep his foot firm and not take advantage of others' troubled waters.

These state soldiers are indeed not calm enough. They clearly told them not to mess around and stay at their posts if something happens, but they still failed to do it!

Yang Ji didn't care about the other things, so he asked the soldiers in Fangzhongzhou to pick up their weapons and go to the next room with him because there were more soldiers there, and no matter what, as long as enough soldiers were summoned, even if the other party climbed over the wall, he would have a fight.

The soldiers resting in various rooms were a little confused, but at least they were all waiting to pick up their weapons and saw their comrades beside them, and everyone was sleeping in the adjacent room and gathered quickly.

Seeing that the soldiers were calm, Yang Ji felt a little relieved, and first dispatched two groups of people to patrol the posts, reinforcements and then left a group of people to stand by on standby. He took the remaining soldiers to investigate what happened, and someone would shout.

Before he could set off, several soldiers ran over. The leader was angry and shouted that something had happened. Yang Ji had no choice but to ask him what had happened. The other party pointed straight in one direction and kept saying "On there."

Under the leadership of these soldiers, Yang Ji and his group followed with full arms. Seeing the direction of marching, Yang Ji's face became more and more serious. Halfway through, he suddenly grabbed the hands of the soldiers in front of him and asked if something was wrong in the toilet.

"How do you know about Sima Yang?"

"Hurry, go quickly!" Yang Ji ran forward without explaining. The others were not sure, so they could only follow closely behind. Not long after, everyone came to an outside room and saw that there were already several soldiers at the door holding torches and pointing at the room.

"What's going on... Is there something wrong with the wall inside?" Yang Ji came to them and asked directly. The soldiers looked at him in surprise and nodded. Two soldiers walked out of the room and told him what happened.

"I just entered here and wanted to get out of Gong without expecting that he would quickly hold the wall as soon as he slid his hands, but a small hole collapsed on the wall..." A soldier said in a daze. Yang Ji looked at the black hole on the wall and then opened his eyebrows:

"Now, smash the wall open!"
