Yu Chaoen has always lived in the capital, and he is naturally well aware of the various situations in the capital, knowing that Yang Guozhong has a lot of guards going out, and it is difficult to assassinate him, and Wang Hu, who has just arrived from Luoyang, obviously does not understand what the situation in the capital is, this is not their territory, and if they want to intercept and kill officials at the feet of the Son of Heaven, this is to provoke the imperial power, and it is almost impossible to retreat from the whole body, and even, it is impossible to succeed at all.

However, Wang Hu is also helpless, he and his eldest brother Wang Gui are the masterminds of this huge case of embezzlement of ink, even if they voluntarily surrender, it is impossible to have a chance to live, even if the emperor is extraordinarily gracious and spares them from dying, it is also the exile of the whole family, and all assets are confiscated, so what is the meaning of them living, it is better to die.

Once a person is in a hurry, he will do something crazy and unbelievable, at this time Wang Hu is like a beast that has been forced into a corner, fully prepared to fight hard, at this moment, even if the emperor is standing in front of him, he has the heart to kill the emperor.

"Fish give things, let me think about it, and think about it again."

Wang Hu felt that the house was too stuffy, and walked into the yard step by step, only by standing in the open area of the yard, he could be more sober, although the air outside was very cold and cold, but Wang Hu couldn't take care of these at the moment, his little life was about to be gone, where could he take care of the cold air.

At this moment, all the burdens are on him, and he desperately wants to get in touch with his eldest brother, but there is no mobile phone in this era, so he can't contact his eldest brother, so he can only face this crisis alone.

Chen Xiaoer, who stole the account book, was in Yang Guozhong's house, but he didn't have enough strength to run to kill him, which made him very angry, and the halfway interception of hope may also encounter a strong escort counterattack, when he just entered Beijing, he found that on the streets of Chang'an City, you can see patrolling soldiers everywhere, if the movement of the fight attracts the patrolling soldiers, the consequences will be even more serious.

The road in front of him was all blocked by wild beasts, and behind him was the abyss, Wang Hu had a very desperate feeling, this feeling was very bad, which made him easily angry, and even made him a little insane.

This kind of thinking of flickering left and right is very torturous, even ordinary people will be tortured by mental disorders, and Wang Hu never dares to say that he has the idea of escaping, because he has many people under him, if he has the idea of retreating, these subordinates will also follow the centrifugal detachment, and even, will fight back, rob his finances in the process of escaping, and even kill him to invite credit.

In short, although he is now very rich and powerful, and has many loyal subordinates, the premise of all this is the status and power he has, and once he loses these, then everything will be lost, and the subordinates who were originally loyal to him will no longer be loyal.

Once lost, there will be nothing, so Wang Hu still decided to give it a go, he couldn't give up this last chance, even if he knew that there was little hope, but he had to try.

When he returned to the study, Yu Chaoen had already left, and he didn't know when he left, but the little maid was still sitting there, staring blankly ahead, not moving.

"Little lady, can you help me draw the drawings of the Imperial History Mansion? Only when I know the situation inside can I take someone to kill Chen Xiaoer. ”

Wang Hu refused to give up his last hope, he wanted to lead someone to sneak into the Imperial History Mansion and kill Chen Xiaoer.

The little maid doesn't have too much culture, but she can still draw pictures, and she drew the general situation of the Imperial History Mansion, and then corrected a lot of unclear things with oral description, so that Wang Hu could understand it.

After listening to the introduction of the little maid, Wang Hu felt that there was still hope, after all, Chen Xiaoer lived in a deserted courtyard, as long as they could sneak directly into it from the courtyard wall quietly, then they could kill Chen Xiaoer quietly, as for the ledger, they could force Chen Xiaoer to question him before killing him, as long as the means were appropriate, it should not be a big problem.

Because it had been determined that Chen Xiaoer was in the Imperial History Mansion, more than 100 people under Wang Hu stopped looking, and they all gathered and waited for Wang Hu's order.

Sneak into the Imperial Mansion to kill people, one of the most important links in this, that is, to carry out quietly, once discovered, all actions will be finished, so, the number of people in the action must not be too much, there are more than a dozen good skills, so that the target is relatively small, not easy to find.

And there is a big problem here, that is, Yang Guozhong's mansion is very large, accounting for half of the area of the square, and the wall of the mansion is also very high.

On the street, not only are there more pedestrians, but there are also patrols of the imperial court's Praetorian Guards back and forth, and if you want to climb over the wall from here, the risk is too great, and if you are not careful, you will be discovered by the patrolling officials and the Praetorian Guards, and it will be over. The situation of the cross street in the square is much better, the Praetorian Guard has a fixed patrol route, and they will not enter the cross street for no reason, unless they find a special situation, they will enter to check.

However, at this time in Chang'an City, there is no curfew, which means that all the people can walk back and forth freely at night, even in the middle of the night, there will be pedestrians on the road, and there are many shops on the street that are not closed for twelve consecutive hours. Even, the more important crossroads are streetlights.

For example, Yang Guozhong's mansion is brightly lit in all four directions, although it is a bit exaggerated to use the bright lights, but in these four directions, it is almost impossible to use the night to hide someone or something, even if it is one or two hundred meters away, you can see people, but if you want to see people's faces clearly, you have to go closer.

In addition, because the family has abundant funds and the industry under his command is also relatively profitable, the lighting situation on Yang Guozhong's house is also very good, almost all the courtyards are equipped with lights, and the lighting situation in the whole house is still very good.

The little maid naturally didn't tell Wang Hu about these details, she only thought about revenge, where would she think about these things, and she was not in the mood to think about them.

Wang Hu selected a dozen of his best subordinates and prepared to carry out the assassination operation, and in order to ensure the success of the operation, he sent other subordinates to stay nearby, as long as he sent a signal, these guys in the vicinity would deliberately do something, so as to recruit the patrolling soldiers and servants, to ensure that these subordinates who carried out the operation would not be discovered by the patrolling soldiers.

Although Yu Chaoen returned to the bedroom, he was still not sleepy, he was also constantly thinking about countermeasures, and in addition, he did not forget to send someone to monitor Wang Hu to grasp the entire situation.

When Wang Hu had the courage to lead more than a dozen of his subordinates to the street, many of his subordinates seemed more nervous, although they had also committed murders, but most of them were facing weak people, and this time they had to fight against strong enemies, this pressure can be imagined.

"Why are there so many patrol soldiers on this road, they pass by every once in a while."

"And the lights here are too bright, there's nowhere to hide."

The subordinate said in fear.

Wang Hu said angrily: "Shut up, this is the main road, I will go to the cross street later, the situation there will be better." ”

The group walked cautiously along the main road, for fear of being discovered, so each of them only brought two close-fitting daggers, and there were no long weapons to use, otherwise, they would definitely attract the extra attention of the patrolling soldiers.

It has been several years since the curfew in Chang'an City was lifted, so even at night, there are a lot of pedestrians on the street, especially on the main streets, there are pedestrians walking around almost all the time, among them, the merchants who transport goods are the most, and their large quantities of goods will choose to be carried at night, which can greatly reduce the traffic pressure during the day, and the goods are more worry-free when carrying goods, and will not be disturbed by a large number of pedestrians. The more efficient you are, the more money you save.

"This is the Honbo Workshop, walk through here and enter the Cross Street."

Wang Hu looked at his surroundings and was disgusted by the constant stream of passers-by, who would interfere with his movements.

When passing by the main gate, more than ten people all looked at the gate unconsciously, nervous and a little scared, but at night, the guards of the gate entered the house, the door was closed, and the door would not be easily opened without distinguished guests.

Therefore, even if they stand at the gate and linger, no one will pay attention to them.

However, they knew that there must be someone inside the gate, so it was very unrealistic to enter from the gate, they needed to climb through the courtyard wall at the cross street, so that the grasp was larger, and the abandoned courtyard was on the courtyard wall on the cross street, as long as they found the right position to turn in, they could easily control Chen Xiaoer, and then solve this big trouble.

After entering the cross street, the effect is much better, especially here in Yang Guozhong's mansion, many places are big mansions, there are no shops on the street, and the big officials open the door to do business in their own residences, which is obviously not possible.

However, even on the cross street, there are pedestrians, but the number of pedestrians is relatively small, far less than on the street, and there is no large convoy of merchants transporting goods, so it is much more convenient for them to move.

"The wall of this courtyard is so long, and there is no mark, where is the location of the courtyard we are looking for?"

One of his subordinates said impatiently.

Wang Hu was also very annoyed, this courtyard wall is too long, and there is no mark, just based on the general feeling, it is difficult to find the location, and as long as you find the wrong location, it is very likely to be discovered by the people who patrol the mansion inside, and then fall short.

"No matter, that's it, you two go up and see the situation first."

Wang Hu ordered.

"Wait, there's someone next to you."

The subordinate said.

They waited patiently, and the passers-by saw more than a dozen people standing by the wall, and they were also a little scared, and unconsciously quickened their pace, and did not forget to look back when they walked away.

"Alright, up."

A skilled subordinate immediately took out a special tool and threw it against the wall, and then, very quickly, climbed up, exposed a head, and observed the situation inside.

"What's going on inside?"

Wang Hu, who was waiting below, asked anxiously.

"It's so beautiful inside, there are rockeries and flowers everywhere."

The subordinate replied.

"Bastard, come down, this is not the place we are looking for."

Wang Hu knew that it was impossible for an abandoned courtyard to have too good a view, and this location was naturally not an abandoned courtyard.

"Get the hook off, there's someone again."

Pedestrians are not seen very often, but they do do appear occasionally, and they must be avoided as much as possible.

After the hand came down, he got the hook off with a light lift.

"Keep going, try a few more times and you'll find it."

Wang Hu was unwilling to give up, he was determined to kill Chen Xiaoer.

Soon, they found the right time to go up to the wall again, but they found that it was still not right, so they had to continue.

The third time they finally found a similar courtyard, but they couldn't be completely sure, after all, the little maid had only been in the main house for a long time, and she was not too familiar with the various parts of the mansion, but only a general understanding, so the description was not too clear.

"Go in, go in and see."

Wang Hu ordered most of his subordinates to enter this courtyard, and only two of his subordinates stayed with him to watch the wind.

However, they still went to the wrong yard this time, it is true that this yard is deserted, but it is not the courtyard where Chen Xiaoer lived, but the courtyard where Liu Dasha jumped into the well, and the principle of Chen Xiaoer's residence is still separated by a courtyard.

In addition, in fact, the deserted courtyard where Chen Xiaoer lives is not against the outer wall, it is just the feeling of the little maid, but it is not wrong.

These guys who entered the Imperial History Mansion just took out the dagger in their arms and divided them into two groups to search, however, their luck was very bad, and they were found as soon as they entered a manned courtyard, after all, except for a very few abandoned courtyards, the rest of the courtyards were brightened, and the planted plants were not very dense, and it was not easy to hide a person.

Now that they have been discovered, the best way is naturally to escape, but it is not easy to escape successfully, after all, they are not familiar with the terrain of the house, and after running around for a while, they were caught up by the manservants of the house, and the more powerful guards were still on the way to hear the news.

Seeing that they were caught up and couldn't get out over the wall, these guys also let go, and directly attacked the manservant with a dagger, killing several people in one bite, and scared the rest of the manservant to turn around and run.
