Xu Bin said: “Hey, Lao Pang, you’re so worried, Fa Yan is in a good mood, how can you catch someone because of a piece of torn paper?” Then hand him the paper roll back. Pang Lushi was relieved and was about to pat on the shoulder to express his intimacy, but Xu Bin flashed away slightly, and his face turned serious: “It is also because of venting and divulging military intelligence.”

He is honest, and such aggressive words, stuttering, have no power at all. When Pang Lu heard it, he looked displeased: “Lao Xu, you can’t slander your colleagues like this. I’m wrong to use paper for convenience, but are you too accused?”

Xu Bin flinched and immediately sighed, finding that his aura was really not suitable for assassination. He flashed his body, revealing a person behind him. Pang Lushi looked at the candlelight. The guard who was originally guarding the corner door had been **** by the five flowers, so his body began to tremble.

Quietly in the corridor, it is inversely proportional to the noise outside. Only Xu Bin’s voice sounded weakly:

“I know that Siri has a spy, but I have to wait for an opportunity. Just now Wang Yunxiu returned to the palace, but was found to be another woman. I deliberately copied this message to all officials. It is too important, and the traitor must be It will be sent out as soon as possible. Those who left the seat at this time to go out, uh, must be the most suspected. ”

Xu Bin sincerely explained the traps he set, lest Pang Lu could not understand.

“I’ve been thinking about how Jingji Secretary’s traitor should go through the main gate or the corner gate, hey. Then I found that I was caught in a misunderstanding. This person is not necessarily the person who wears the door, it may be … well, the gatekeeper. Xu Bin said here, with a sigh of relief, the tone became more confident, “I have just seen: You walked through the corner door and gave the news to the gatekeeper soldiers while checking the bamboo books, and left innocent; the gatekeeper soldiers then Pass it to someone outside and continue to guard the gate innocently. This method is very good. It is innocent to check any of you alone. You have to be together to see the fame. ”

Pang recorded something “Goodong” and slumped in the clip. Xu Bin instructed the bad people around to take him in the past, Pang Lushi quickly raised his face, begging and said: “I: I’m doing things for Fengge …”

Fengge is the province of Zhongshu. He took the initiative to admit that he was Li Xiang’s person, and counted on Xu Bin to show mercy. But even as dull as Xu Bin, he knew that Li Xiang could never admit that there was such a thing, let alone protect him. The career of Pang Lushi was over.

Pang Lushi was also aware of this and grabbed Xu Bin’s sleeve: “I want to see Li Sicheng! I just spread the news, but I have never delayed Jing Ansi’s business!”

When Xu Bin heard this, he ignited: “Hey! I don’t admit it, if it wasn’t for you and Fengge that you had a secret song, could the fire from the merchant’s store come far? Cui Qi could betrayed?” Then he yelled: “The thing about Cui Wei was that I passed it to Fengge. It was not fake, but I haven’t heard it from the store!”

“Ok?”

“It is necessary to kill the Turks! It is no good.” Pang Lu was filled with indignation.

With such a reminder from him, Xu Bin discovered that the two leaks were actually quite different in nature. A long time ago, the storehouse caught fire unexpectedly, benefiting from the Turkic Wolf Guard stealing pictures in the Xifu shop; against the Cui Qi’s rebellion, it was Li Xiang.

No matter how shameless Pang Lu is, he won’t take two.

“Did you say … there are actually two traitors?” Xu Bin stood in the path, unable to help shivering. When did Jinganji become a sieve? Any sediment can seep in.

He stared hard at Pang Lu, and stared at the latter with straight hair. However, Pang Lushi quickly discovered that Xu Bin’s short-sighted eyes were actually focused on the blank paper roll used to release his hand. He passed it carefully: “If you want to use …”

Xu Bin jumped up suddenly, turned and ran towards Jiadao. It is awkward that he has passed his middle age, his legs and feet are still so flexible, and he disappears at the end of the path in a moment, throwing down Pang Lu, the gate guards and several bad people holding them.

Xu Bin gasped, but his brain was about to explode. He just thought that there is another better transmission channel in this Jingan Division!

The four streets near Guangdefang are all dazzling. Those huge lamp stands radiated thousands of golden yellow lights, illuminating half of the sky.

This is a rare sight for tourists, but it is the most troublesome interference for Jingan Division to be placed in the Wanglou of Zhufang. Burning candles and making noise all night, Wanglou’s drums and fires were almost ineffective.

For this reason, Wuhou on the Wanglou had to cover the lantern with two layers of purple paper to distinguish it from those huge lights. If there is a fairy overlooking Chang’an City, you will see a flashing sea of ​​golden light shining over the city. You need to distinguish carefully to see that there are many faint purple dots in it-like a stingy shopkeeper in Biro Sprinkle a little bit of sesame seeds on the cake.

At this moment, the purple light on a lookout near Guangdefang suddenly went out. However, compared to these brilliant lights like the sun and the moon, this little rotten light is so unremarkable that no one will notice.

Soon the lights of the second watchtower also went out.

The third, fourth, fifth … In dozens of fingers, the purple dots of the Wanglou around the circle of Guangdefang were all dimmed, like a circle of dark ropes, gradually entwined On Guangdefang’s neck.

Yao Ru was able to shut Wen Ran in the prison of the back hall, walked out and stood in the courtyard, and took a long breath. Wen Ran refused to return to the cold and dark environment and kept asking Yao Runeng what was going on. He talked so badly that he calmed her emotions.

This ordinary girl has experienced so much torture today, it is really pitiful. Li Sicheng just asked her to be locked up like a prisoner, which made Yao Ru a little bit uneasy.

He confessed to the jailer guarding the cell, and placed an extra candlestick and a copper basin filled with water in the cell—the smelling hair bun and his face were so dirty that they needed to be cleaned.

With this arrangement, when Zhang Duwei comes back, he will have an explanation for him anyway. Yao Ru thought.

The woman called Zhang Xiaojing as a benefactor. I don’t know of any stories between the two. Yao Runeng is now curious about Zhang Xiaojing’s life. He urgently wants to see this person clearly. Wenran should be an excellent way to understand.

Yao Ru allowed Wen Ran to clean himself. He took advantage of this time to ventilate in the yard, clarify his thoughts, and then go back to interrogate Wen Ran—well, not interrogation, but inquiries. He corrected his words.

Jing’an’s backyard prison is connected to the left-side hall. There are two small courtyards in the middle of the two places. The original owner has placed a rockery covered with vines, which is like a mountain. Yao Ru was able to reach this small courtyard and was looking down in contemplation. Suddenly he saw that behind the rockery, there seemed to be a shadow shaking. Yao Ru can narrow his eyes and hold the iron ruler around his waist alertly: “Who?”

“It’s me, Choi.”

The figure came out and Yao Ru could stare in both eyes, which was really unexpected.

“Oh, isn’t this General Cui of You Xiaowei?” Yao Runeng emphasized the word “General” sarcastically. He thought that he would never have to see this face again in his life.

Cui Qi’s face was black and lifeless: “I have something to do with you.” Yao Runeng continued to ridicule: “Capture me back? Unfortunately, General Gan only restricted Zhang Duwei, but he didn’t mention my nameless soldier.

Cui Qi gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: “It’s not this matter, I tell you, Jing’an may be in danger!”

Yao Ru could almost want to laugh, this guy was even more comical than Haoyou who jumped into the military drama. Secretary Jing’an guards against Beijing, is it dangerous? Its job is to find out the danger!

“No, listen to me. I don’t have any evidence now, but I have a strong hunch that something is wrong.”

Cui Qi’s tone was a little irritable. He served as a soldier in Longshan and had a natural intuition about danger. From just now, he suddenly felt restless. The footsteps of the people in the temple, the flow of the wind, the hustle and bustle outside, and the frequency of communication always felt that something was wrong, but they could not tell.

“Of course you are expecting something to happen to Secretary Jing An.” Yao Ru could sneer.

“You are a rabbit, how do you say it?” Cui Qi was furious and stretched his palm to slam the rockery. “Yes! I am a traitor!

Yao Ru could look at his face, his expression slowly becoming serious. This person may be cowardly and despicable, but he is not good at counterfeiting. He seems really anxious now.

“Since you are so kind, why don’t you just talk to Li Sicheng and Xu Xu?” Yao Runeng doubted.

“They will not believe the traitor’s words.” Cui Qi replied with a wry smile, “But Xiao Yao, you go to warn, it will be different. Listen, I am not for Jing Ansi, I am for myself. If something goes wrong, I won’t be spared. ”

This is the truth. If possible, he ran away early, but with a military order of Gan Shoucheng, he could only stay here in situ.

Yao Runeng said: “Then you have to make it clear what is going to happen, but you just can’t feel it. How can you make Jing’an prepare for it?”

Cui Qi said anxiously: “It’s always right to dispatch a few brigades first!”

As soon as the voice fell, the two heard eager footsteps. They looked around and found that the sound came from the back garden farther away.

Xu Bin ran from Jingzhao to Jing’an in one breath, and then ran from Jing’an to the back of the courtyard. This is a large garden with a wide space and only some retreats, latrines, falcons, etc. The Jing’ansi Watchtower is also set in the middle of the garden, surrounded by a circle of high gables.

It stands to reason that this is a dead end and there is no exit. But Xu Bin suddenly remembered that there was another passage in this garden.

Drains.

Why is the location of Guangdefang so important? Because it depends on the three channels west of Chang’an—Guangtong Canal, Qingming Canal, and Yongan Canal, which just happened to converge here and then flow into the Imperial City.

Three channels enter the square, making the waterway inside Guangde Square wide and deep. This back garden of Jing’an Division has a water gate on both the east and west walls. The water from the east wall is introduced into the main canal, and the middle bends into a bow shape, exactly halfway around Li Bi’s exit room, and then drains into the main canal from the west wall. In this way, there is a living water in the garden, as long as one of the three canals is not dry, there will always be clear water flowing here, and the feng shui is good.

Seeing the paper roll in Pang Lushi’s hand, Xu Bin suddenly thought that the traitor didn’t have to go in and out of the second door, as long as he used the excuse to go to the back garden on the latrine, throw the oiled paper into the drain, and then arrange for people to be in the west. Just pick it up outside the wall with a hedge. The flow of water will complete the transmission of information, which is reliable, fast, and extremely safe.

This method is worthless, but it is more practical than the method of recording things.

Xu Bin deliberately released the news that Wang Yunxiu was tainted. For another traitor, it is also information that must be sent immediately. In other words, Xu Bin hurried over and rushed, maybe he could be blocked by the water channel-to no avail, he could also catch someone fishing for intelligence beside the Western Wall to block the road.

He was followed by five bad people. Xu Bin let two of them have the best physique. He quickly crossed the wall from the other side and blocked the other side first. He and the other three ran into a fan shape and moved towards the ditch.

Xu Bin hasn’t exercised this for a long time. His lungs hurt fiercely and he gasped heavily, but he didn’t dare to stop at his feet. After Pang Lusi was arrested, the traitor might be hiding in this place, and now is the only chance to catch him.

They ran into the back garden and quickly moved along the gravel path, and soon saw the shadow of the exit room standing in the darkness. There are no lights here, so there is no way to see more clearly, only to hear the sound of the water in the ditch.

Huh? Why is there no light?

The Dawanglou of Jing’an Division is located nearby. It has to receive news from Changan in all directions, so it is twice the size of other Wanglous, and can accommodate eight martial princes. After nightfall, there should be sixteen purple lights hanging above.

Xu Bin raised his head and found that the Dawang Tower was dark and there were no lights.

not good!

An extremely ominous hunch, like a viper in the shadow, bite Xu Bin’s heart fiercely.

Two screams came from the other side of the wall, the two bad guys who had just turned over. Xu Bin’s face changed abruptly, and he hurriedly looked around his neck to see. His vision was helpless in the dark. His feet knocked, and the whole person fell to the ground.

At the same time, a shadow stood up from the ditch. The unhealthy people were shocked and pulled out the iron rulers around their waists. At this time, more than a dozen shadows appeared one after another and climbed up to the canal, almost like a ghost emerging from the water.

They wore black water and leaned in a row holding short crossbows, keeping a terrible silence. The water gate has been demolished under the western wall not far away, and these people should have swam from there. A black figure stood on the edge of the west wall, looking indifferently to this side, playing with a straight handle horse file.

The remaining three bad people stopped timidly and tried to run back. Several short crossbows moved and killed the two. The last person hurriedly shouted a warning, but a crossbow arrow suddenly flew over his head, thrusting into his heavenly cover.

A black figure poked his head from the Dawanglou to confirm the target’s death, and then compared the movement with a gesture.

The shadows took off the water, re-winded the short crossbow, and then divided into several teams, quickly rushed towards the Jingan Division Hall …
