Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Lion Speaks
Xie Dai, who had been idle at home for half a year, was summoned by the Son of Heaven into Beijing for questioning, and taking this opportunity, Shen Gang and others decisively took him out of the courtyard where the six princes were kept.
It's a risky move.
The courtyard where the six princes live, there are at least a dozen people patrolling day and night, and they will be discovered if they are not careful, not only that, but there are also hidden plum blossom guards in Shaoxing Mansion, most of them are also staring at the six princes, once there is an abnormality, they will be discovered by the plum blossom guard.
Shaoxing Mansion is thousands of miles away from the southwest, and even if they really bring the Six Princes out, it will be difficult to bring him back to the southwest.
Therefore, even Shen Gang himself didn't have much hope for this matter, from beginning to end he only invested a dozen people from the dark department, as well as a Qian Tong, even if he really failed, it would just kill these people.
Anyway, Lord Hou's order is that Shanyin can go to Yuezhou if it doesn't work, so there is no need for the dark department to fight with the six princes here.
So, Qian Tong just climbed over the wall and went in, Shen Gang left five or six people to answer, and he took a few people to retreat a few hundred meters for the time being, standing on a tall building, and using a clairvoyant mirror to watch the movement over there through a little moonlight.
He was ready to get out of the way.
What Shen Gang never expected was that not long after Qian Tong entered, the rope hanging on the wall in the dark moved, and several people who stayed behind the wall to answer glanced at each other, and they all began to pull the rope in unison.
Because according to the previous agreement, as long as the rope moves, the person can be pulled out.
The rope is not heavy, not at all like the weight of an adult.
The men grabbed the rope, and the people on the other side of the wall slowly climbed up the high wall with the rope and jumped off the wall.
A few people caught him easily.
It's a half-grown child.
Shen Gang, who was watching from a distance, clenched his fists tightly, and immediately opened his mouth and whispered to the person behind him: "The person has come out!" ”
"From now on, all the personnel in the dark department in Shanyin County will come out to respond, and no matter what, we will send this person out of Shaoxing Mansion and to the southwest!"
"Take him to the west gate at once, and when the day is dawn when the gate is opened, take him out of the city at once."
"Send a letter to the southwest, let Hou Ye send someone to answer along the way, and escort this person back to the southwest as quickly as possible!"
After a series of orders were issued, the leader of the dark department behind Shen Gang immediately bowed his head and said: "Let's do it!" ”
At this time, it was still early in the morning, and the sky had not yet fully lit up.
But it's about an hour before dawn breaks.
At this time, Shen Gang and others were in Shaoxing City, and Zhao Yi had already evacuated outside Shanyin City in advance with a group of people, etc., firstly, to facilitate the safety of the people in the city, and secondly, to ensure the safety of Zhao Yi himself.
At the end of the day, the gate of Shaoxing Mansion City slowly opened.
A carriage waited for a long time at the west gate, and as soon as the city gate opened, a young man driving could not wait to go out of the city.
The soldiers defending the city felt that something was wrong, and reached out to stop the carriage, and was about to inspect it.
The driver of the car was a man in his forties, speaking a standard Shaoxing dialect, his face was full of sadness, and he was reluctant to accompany the smiling face: "Two officials, the old mother in the countryside is sick, I will take my son back to visit, one step later, I am afraid that heaven and man will be separated forever, the two are accommodating, let one go." ”
As he spoke, the man took out a small string of copper plates from his sleeve, far less than the usual money, and probably only fifty or sixty copper plates, and stuffed them into the hands of one of them.
If you give too much, it's a little too exaggerated, and if you give too little, you'll be entangled, this amount is no more, no less, just enough to pass these little minions.
The man glanced at the man, lifted the curtain and saw that there was indeed a half-grown child sitting in the carriage, so he did not check the two people's photos, and waved his hand: "That's it, let's go." ”
The middle-aged man thanked the two of them for a thousand thanks, and then climbed into the carriage again and drove out of Shaoxing Mansion.
After seeing the carriage leave, the soldier who had collected the money reached out and weighed the string of small money, with a smile on his face, and another person also walked over, squeezed his eyes, and said with a smile: "Second brother, is this money half of the little brother?" ”
The man's eyes rolled, he took out twenty copper plates from his arms, stuffed them into his colleague's hands, and coughed: "Naturally, it will be distributed to brothers, the old guy gave forty copper plates, and you and my brothers are half each." ”
The other person didn't collect the money, he didn't know the amount, and he couldn't argue with the "seniors", so he could only accept the money and nod his head.
"It's still the second brother who is generous, and when it's time to take a break, the younger brother invites the second brother to drink......"
As soon as the two of them opened the door today, there was a lot of money, and they were naturally in a good mood, and they talked and laughed after a while, and they chatted very happily.
It wasn't until the sky was completely bright, when the Xie family, together with the officials and soldiers of the Shaoxing Mansion, chased to the West Gate in a panic that the two of them knew that they might be in trouble.
The brothers had a tacit understanding and never mentioned this matter, and the two of them knew better than anyone that if this matter was said, their lives would be over.
In the end, it was the two Meihuawei people who appeared and pointed out the direction to the people of Shaoxing Mansion and the Xie family, and they ran all the way to the west.
And at this time, it has been almost an hour since the sixth prince Ji Ying left the city.
Li Xin has used up almost all of his income since the third year of Taikang, and this dark department that he has built, in addition to intelligence work, has shown his strength for the first time in other comprehensions!
They stole a prince of the Great Jin Dynasty in Shaoxing Mansion, the hinterland of the Great Jin Dynasty!
……………………
Preparations for the southwest are in full swing, and in a blink of an eye, the tail of autumn has been touched, and in a few months, the weather will be cold.
Li Xin was not afraid of the cold and the heat, although the autumn tiger at this time was still powerful, Li Xin was wearing a wide robe, but he didn't feel how hot it was.
On this day, he was in the Southwest General's Mansion in Hanzhong, dealing with some daily military affairs of the Southwest Army brothers, and about in the evening, a piece of information from the dark department quietly appeared on his desk.
After Li Xin opened it and took a general look, he slowly exhaled a breath and said in a deep voice: "Go look for Mu Ying, Li Shuo, the two generals, come to see me." ”
There was his personal guard at the door, and after hearing Li Xin's words, he immediately trotted down all the way down to call someone.
By the time the two generals arrived at Li Xin's Great General's Mansion, night had fallen and it was already completely dark.
Li Xin sat on the main seat, glanced at the two people, and said slowly: "Two, our people are in Shanyin, they have already succeeded, and they are now rushing back to the southwest. ”
"I will send someone to pick up along the way, and if it goes well, another concubine of Emperor Xianjing will soon appear in the southwest."
Mu Ying opened his mouth and said with a smile: "The general is really full of talents, I originally thought that there was no chance at all in this matter, so I could only go to Yuezhou to find the king of Yueyang, but I didn't expect the general to really be able to bring people out of Shaoxing Mansion......"
"Less sycophants."
Li Xin frowned and said: "We all know in our hearts that no matter whether the Ji family clan is in the southwest or not, we will still do what we should do, but the sixth prince is about to go to the southwest, and we are ready to start doing things." ”
"I have been holding it like this, people in the world will regard us as the second Pingnan Army, and we must always show the world that we are far better than the Pingnan Army of the year."
Speaking of this, Li Xin glanced at the two generals and said, "Before the end of the year, I want you to take Xiangyang." ”
The two generals glanced at each other, and then Mu Ying smiled bitterly at Li Xin: "General, I'm afraid this thing can't be done, Xiangyang is also one of the important towns, and they have so many people stationed there, it will be difficult to gnaw it down without a year or two......"
Li Shuo also lowered his head and said, "General, I'm afraid this matter is ...... In a hurry. ”
Li Xin narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "A few days ago, I asked for three hundred young soldiers with the two of you, and neither of you was willing to give them at that time. ”
"Counting the days, they have been going to Huzi for more than a month, and now they should have achieved something."
Along the way, Li Xin looked at the two people.
"Over the years, Huzi has come up with something new."
"Starting tomorrow, both of you will go to Huzi for a month and ask him how to use these new things."
Speaking of this, Li Xin gently tapped the table with his hand.
"When you learn those new things, come and tell me if Xiangyang can be defeated."
