Chapter 861 Beheading
Nearly noon, Jiang Zhen, who pretended to be calm and walked around the yamen, walked out alone and turned into the alley where he was knocked unconscious.
Before he could look at it, a pocket suddenly sucked his head. Jiang Zhen said intimidly, why do you always pinch it like this? Can't you meet a good meeting? Now Qizhou City is messy and has no suspicion or something. Is it necessary to be so cautious?
"Don't beat the head, don't beat it! I won't look at it randomly, just take me to see the Marquis, report it if you have something to do!" Jiang Zhen shouted hurriedly, and took out a piece of silver from his sleeve: "Give me a drink, drink wine for my brother!"
When the monk in charge of the joint heard this, he put down half of the brick in his hand and shouted in a low voice: Don’t play tricks, if you dare to take a sneak peek, be careful of your life!"
Jiang Zhen responded with a timid response, and his hands were empty and the silver was stolen. He was not annoyed, but he was relaxed. This at least means he would not be beaten. He turned left and right for a long time and came to a place. The person leading the way whispered: "Don't use the pocket on his head, wait!"
"Hey!" Jiang Zhen responded twice in a row and stayed honestly. He listened to the sound of footsteps getting farther and he could not see anything around him, and he felt a little panicked. But he still obeyed the requirements and didn't move at all. Who knew if anyone was watching him, he sprained his ankle twice along the way and finally got here. If he was hit for a while, he might as well be knocked and carried over at the beginning.
...
Outside the courtyard of Cuilian's house, someone knocked on the door. Cuilian walked to the door and did not recognize her. She was about to give it up. At this time, Li Mu walked out of the house and saw the monkey, saying, "Miss Cuilian, don't chase her, I recognize her, my family's... a long-term worker, look for me!"
"Oh," Cui Lian didn't ask, and moved the door open and went to cook on her own. She had already seen that Li Mu was bored with her. Even if she was despised in this industry, she would not be as hot ass. Before Li Mu could use his money, she would be able to serve him as he could. When the money was finished, she would probably leave. The dewy love was like this.
When Li Mu saw the visitor, he knew that there was news from Jiang Zhen. He couldn't help but feel happy. Jiang Zhen came so quickly, which means that things were going well. Li Mu took out a ingot and threw it at Cui Lian, who was walking in the woodshed, and said, "Tonight, order good dishes, I'll go out first."
The girl took the money and saw that it was another ingot of five liang, and hurriedly said, "If you have too much, you can eat more than five liang."
"If there are too many people stay in the hotel, I will leave first."
Li Mu said, leaving with the fanzi. Cui Lian looked at Li Mu's back and felt a little hope in her heart. This young man was just five liang. How rich is he? If he just wanted to live for a few days, a fool would know that he would not use so much. What does it mean to give him more of this?
Are you embarrassed?
Cui Lian chuckled twice, humming a little tune that she heard from somewhere, and went to make a fire and make a meal.
...
The place where Jiang Zhen was placed was not far from Cui Lian's house. After walking a few steps, Li Mu reached out and pulled off the pocket on Jiang Zhen's head. When Jiang Zhen saw Li Mu, he hurriedly knelt down to salute.
Before coming, he had already discussed with General Wang in the yamen and received accurate news that eleven people had gathered there. In addition to his hard-core confidants and cousins from several families, three were from the former King of Qi, Quan Wanji.
After Quan Wanji was killed, his family was later killed. However, some of his subordinates took this opportunity to escape, and these three minor officials brought to Chang'an to take office were one of them.
These three minor officials have been in Qizhou for a long time and cannot take their families. Some often go to brothels to indulge themselves, while others take concubines from outside. One of the minor officials just married a second wife, who is the younger sister of a small school under General Wang, and these two became the relatives of the uncle.
After Quan Wanji had an accident, the minor official took two companions to join his brother-in-law. He originally planned to use his help to find an opportunity to escape from Qizhou, but later Qizhou was closed down and no one was allowed to enter and leave without a warrant. They could not escape, so they had to hide in the cellar of their brother-in-law's house. They didn't know the time, and they seemed to be isolated.
When General Wang summoned a group of confidants and made great achievements, he declared that he would take them to a bright future and make a big vote as a letter of vote, the school was overjoyed and immediately said this.
General Wang was also very happy. It was also a great help to work with him at this time. Since these three people were Quan Wanji's subordinates, they didn't have to worry about betraying the enemy, and it was useful. General Wang took advantage of the patrol and went home with him and met these three people. When these three people saw General Wang appear in the cellar, they thought that his elder brother had turned against him.
Jiang Zhen said to Li Mu: "I have recruited 14 people on my side, all of whom are absolutely reliable warriors. Speaking of which, such a few people will definitely not work in the battle of justice, but if you attack sneakily, it will be enough. If you have more, it will be a mistake."
Li Mu thought, "Yes, I have a few more here, and there are twenty-five people in the front and back. What do you think?"
"If you find the right opportunity, twenty-five people will be enough." Jiang Zhen is not a fool, and he still has a clear judgment on the situation. He took out the picture he drew last night and handed it to Li Mu: "Mr. Marquis, this is the topographic map of the Qi Prince's Mansion drawn by Xiaguan yesterday. The marked positions in the picture are all the guards. We have to touch it from here..."
Li Mu had no comments, and there was no right to speak without investigation. Jiang Zhen investigated, and he did not doubt the person without doubting the person. He was not the kind of person who pointed fingers.
Jiang Zhen also breathed a sigh of relief. What he feared most was Li Mu's blind command. The plan here has been decided and agreed to act tonight. Jiang Zhen went to gather people from General Wang, and Li Mu also notified his people to gather in the alley when nightfall.
The place where General Wang is on duty tonight is the nearby area. Although there are soldiers everywhere along the way, Jiang Zhen and others are working together inside and outside, so there is no need to worry about being discovered. The real danger is after touching the palace.
...
At this time, Lord Yang had already left the small courtyard of the back house of the Prince of Qi's mansion, leaving Mrs. Lu alone, standing in the courtyard and ignoring.
Lord Yang Dao mercilessly attacked Mrs. Lu and told her firmly: "You will never imagine how stupid the King of Qi is. His so-called rebellion is a joke! If he can succeed, the sun can come out from the west!"
"Yang Hua, are you... so disapproving of King Qi?" Mrs. Lu frowned and said, "Your elder brother thinks so too?"
"It's not that you don't think it's that you don't have to read it at all! When my elder brother received your letter, he thought you were raising a banner to rebel and utilizing the name of King Qi! Thinking of the favors I owe in the past, my elder brother led the crowd to help me. Who would have thought that this was the case? The group of King Qi, not only King Qi, but Yin Hongzhi, and what other four kings are there? None of them looks like? Even if he wants to treat them as a puppet, he still has to look like a puppet so that he can take it out to scare people, right?"
The Master Yang Dao stared at Mrs. Lu with a bright look: "But if you hold a piece of shit on the position of the puppet, if someone really wants to throw it, would you take someone to see the shit?"
Master Yang knew Mrs. Lu in his early years. Although the heroes of the world in the past have now lost their edges, their sharpness has never diminished. Although Mrs. Lu has a noble status, in the eyes of them, there is nothing to be respected. What they respect is a hero like the bearded guest. Mrs. Lu knew it in her heart and was not annoyed. She even said with a smile: "What did he... do to make you so hate it?"
Master Yang took a deep breath and looked solemn: "He did nothing! If he did it, even if he did it wrong, I wouldn't..."
Mrs. Lu was puzzled: "He did nothing, why are you so angry?"
Master Yang said angrily: "He rebelled! He shouted to Quanxia, 'I rebelled!', and then he went back to sleep with his big head, doing nothing. Have you ever seen someone so stupid that he was so incredible?"
Lord Yang took a few breaths of energy before suppressing his heart. He suddenly sighed, his shoulders drooped, and said with a slight gaze: "Rebellion? What's the rebellion? I really can't figure out what you did this for! My elder brother owe you a favor, but you don't have to make trouble, you're going to kill our brothers in vain, right?"
Lord Yang smiled helplessly and said to Mrs. Lu: "Brother has always been sorry about what happened back then, but if you only say that for revenge, please forgive me for not being able to obey the Seventy-Two Islands in Nanyang."
After saying that, Lord Yang turned around and walked out.
Mama Rong, who had been standing with her hands, came up angrily and said, "This Master Yang Dao is simply ignorant. Miss, don't be influenced by him for major events."
Mrs. Lu sighed and said, "He is right. Human lives are never counteracted. Even if there are many people they die, my son will never come back."
"Miss..." Seeing Mrs. Lu like this, Mama Rong was in a dilemma again. She didn't know how to persuade her, so she had to stand beside her and stayed in a daze with her.
...
The night is dark, it is winter, the weather is dry and cold, the wind is very cool, and it will be strong tonight.
In front of the palace gate of the palace, two angrily lanterns swaying half-deadly in the wind.
Li Mu, several Dongchang men, and Jiang Zhen and his men all carried their weapons, had already sneaked to the vicinity of the royal palace and met with General Wang and his group.
Both of them were subordinates of the King of Qi, and their residences were not particularly far from the royal palace.
Tonight, General Wang was responsible for the patrol. The group acted as the patrol soldiers and successfully arrived outside the high wall on the left side outside the Qi Palace.
"This is General Wang."
"I've met the Marquis."
Jiang Zhen introduced the two, and there was not much greeting. Jiang Zhen changed the conversation again. He was afraid that General Wang would bypass him and join the line with Li Mu: "Marty, the King of Qi stayed in the back house at night, and the most relaxed defense is also in the back house. Let's climb over the wall from behind and follow me!"
The group quietly turned outside the gables of the back house of the royal palace. Li Mu leaned against the wall and said to Jiang Zhen: "These people under my command are all good at light skills. Why don't they go in first and see if the King of Qi is there or not? Where is it better than if we have more than 20 or so people in together,"
Jiang Zhen nodded, and Li Mu nodded to the two men of the East Factory. They pulled the masked scarf, jumped up, and climbed into the wall. After about a quarter of an hour, the two came back, nodded to Li Mu, and threw the rope down. Li Mu grabbed the rope and climbed onto the wall, whispered outside the wall: "Come on!"
When he heard the noise outside, more than a dozen agile figures quickly climbed over the high wall and gathered around them. Only Jiang Zhen was missing, he was a civil servant. It was really hard for him to climb the wall. And if he failed, he would definitely drag him down when he ran away, so Li Mu decided temporarily not to let Jiang Zhen climb over the wall.
Li Mu looked at the two people standing in front of him and said, "Have you found where the King of Qi was?"
One of the two replied: "The younger one could see clearly on the eaves just now. There were three kings of Qi, divided into three forks and went to three rooms. Which one was the king of Qi, it was hard to see clearly. Marquis, this was probably intentional."
Li Mu frowned and said, "Three?" He thought to himself, if there were only three, there were not many people, and then said, "Where are you going to see the three forks? Do you know where these three concubines live?"
"I can see this clearly."
"Very good, we are divided into two groups." Li Mu said to General Wang, I will take my men and Jiang Bingcao's people to the left, you will take your men to the right, and we will start at the same time. Once you are lost, immediately jump into the middle. If the person is with you, quickly give warning, we will spare the middle and rush over directly! Don't worry about alarming the guards. When you find King Qi, as long as you catch him, it doesn't matter how many people find it."
The idea was decided and the troops were divided into two groups.
Li Mu took Fanzi and Jiang Zhen's subordinates to sneak into a small courtyard. He was looking carefully in, but suddenly he felt someone rubbing his thigh. Li Mu thought to himself that there wouldn't be any perverts in these few people. He looked back and almost screamed in fear. A big, pure black dog seemed to be integrated in the dark night. There was a water basin at the foot of Li Mu standing, which was obviously owned by it. Li Mu stepped on the water basin and it had no water to drink, so he rubbed him.
It turned out to be a mastiff! If you give me a bite, you wouldn't have to take out your intestines?
"I didn't mess with you, don't scream!" Li Mu whispered, put the basin over, and the mastiff came over, rolled the water with its long tongue, and drank it one after another. Strangely, it didn't bite it. Li Mu was stunned. Everyone said that the mastiff was loyal, why is this guy an exception? Doesn't it mean to call it twice?
The monk beside Li Mu also found a mastiff at this time, and he was about to chop off the dog's head when he drew his sword. Li Mu raised his hand to stop him and glared at him, "What are you doing?"
"This dog is ferocious and worried that he will hurt the Marquis. I want to..."
"This dog is fine again, why are you killing it?"
Li Mu suddenly felt a move in his heart, raised his hand and pressed it on the dog's head, using the "Catch Pet" skill. After only once, the system popped up a prompt. The capture had been successful. The mastiff came up to lick his palms, and his attitude became increasingly intimate.
Li Mu held up the dog's head: "Good dog, tell me where King Qi is. I have something to do with him."
The big dog shook his tail and suddenly ran forward with a light pace. He ran a few steps, stopped and turned around and continued to wag his tail. Looking at Li Mu, he seemed to be calling him to follow.
Everyone was stunned: "The Marquis is so good at this. Can the dog understand what he said?!"
Chapter completed!
