356 Catching Turtle in the Urn 2.0

The small town where the post house is located is close to Linhuang Mansion, and most of the merchants traveling from south to north choose to live here. Therefore, it is also very lively, not inferior to the city at all.

Shen Cha and Jin Jing finished making plans. Seeing that it was still early and they had nothing important to do, they decided to go out for a walk together. At least they visited the capital of Liao Kingdom and bought some specialties to take back.

Mei Lin, Mei Zhu, Ying Qi and Ying Ba stayed in the post house, while Shen Cha and Jin Jing took An Ming, Li Jun and Dai Yi out.

When receiving the order, Dai Yi was confused. He never thought that such a good thing would happen to him. He pointed at himself and said, "Me?"

"What?" Jin Jing raised her eyebrows and patted his shoulder, "Don't you want to go out and play with us?"

"Thought!"

"Then let's go!"

"yes!"

Seeing Dai Yi almost jumping up and down with joy, Jin Jing shook her head helplessly, greeted them, and followed Shen Cha out the door.

As soon as they walked out of the door of the inn, they realized that the familiar feeling of being watched along the way had returned.

Several people exchanged hidden glances, pretending that they hadn't noticed anything, and went for a walk when it was time to take a walk.

"It seems that you have received accurate instructions. We must look good tonight. We will not give up until we are killed!" Jin Jing lowered her voice and said to Shen Cha, "I don't know why you are so persistent. Doing this is harmful to them." what is the benefit."

"Of course there are benefits." Shen Cha's face showed no expression, and his eyes swept over the street stalls one by one, "Kill us, Your Majesty, brother will be furious and will avenge us, and their anger will be Someone needs to bear this unfortunate guy...it goes without saying, of course it is the Yelu family headed by Yeluertu."

"If they can't find the murderer and cause a dispute between the two countries, they can use the excuse of the Yelu family's incompetence to kick Yelv Ertu off the throne." Jin Jing gently raised the corners of her lips, "The strategy is good, but it is too easy to be exposed when implemented. Obviously, the person behind the scenes is not very good at this kind of planning."

"If you were good at it, you wouldn't have been suppressed by the Yelu family for so many years and couldn't raise your head." Shen Cha patted Jin Jing's arm, walked to a stall, and pointed to a vivid little tiger sculpture on the stall, "Yes. Isn't it interesting?" She raised her head and looked at the stall owner, "Boss, how much does this cost?"

"Five cents." The stall owner looked at Chen Cha, then at Jin Jing, and then at the three guards behind them, "Are these guests not locals? The accent sounds like they are from Daxia, right?"

"The boss is not a local, right? You look like someone from the south of the Yangtze River." Jin Jing took out a small piece of silver from her purse and threw it to the stall owner, "These tigers want it. , wrap it up for us."

"The guest officer's eyes are really poisonous. The villain is indeed from Jiangnan. However, I have been doing business in Liao for five or six years. I used to go back to my hometown often. In the past two years, I have grown older and rarely We're back." The stall owner collected the money and quickly wrapped up the little tiger sculptures on the stall, put them into a bamboo woven basket, handed them over, and took the opportunity to lower his voice and said, "Young master, tell the general, everything is fine. Be prepared, please rest assured!”

"Thank you!"

Shen Cha turned around and glanced at Dai Yi, who ran up to him and took the basket from the stall owner's hand.

They shopped all the way and bought some, mostly inconspicuous small ornaments, as well as some handmade products with Liao characteristics. It was almost time for dinner before they returned to the posthouse with large and small bags. .

"General Shen and Military Advisor Jin, you two are back!" Yi Cheng stood waiting for them at the door of the post house. When he saw a group of people coming back, he saluted them, "Mr. Nan sent someone to deliver a letter, and I will pick them up in person tomorrow morning. Bit."

"Thank you, I got it." Jin Jing smiled at Yi Cheng and handed him the two packs of snacks they bought on the street.

Yi Cheng watched the people from Daxia walking past him, and then looked at the two packs of snacks in his hands. He didn't know whether he should cry or laugh. He was now eager for Mr. Nan to come and pick them up. Lest he always have the illusion that someone is watching him.

"General, military advisor!" Mei Lin and Mei Zhu had already prepared dinner. When they saw Shen Cha and Jin Jing, they walked over, took what they had in their hands, and said to An Ming, Li Jun and Dai Yi, "Your dinner It has been delivered to the house, go and eat quickly, everyone else has already eaten."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, sisters!"

After seeing An Ming, Li Jun and Dai Yi leave, Shen Cha and Jin Jing went up to the room on the second floor. Ying Qi and Ying Ba were already waiting inside. When they saw Mei Lin and Mei Zhu with their hands full of things, they laughed. Already.

"Didn't you say you went to the streets to investigate the enemy's situation? Why did you come back after buying so many things?"

"Except for the little tiger, which was bought by your boss as a gift to Xiaojiu, you should all share the other things!" Jin Jing took off her outer cloak, washed her hands, wiped her face with a hot handkerchief, and sat down. When he arrived at the table, he glanced at Shen Cha who was reading a small piece of paper and asked, "What's the news?"

"Wan Yanping and the tribal leaders have been arrested five or six times respectively. People from the two houses are now unable to spare time to interrogate them, but... just as we guessed, no matter whether the arrested people confess or not, , it is impossible for these two groups of people to return to Yiqing Mansion alive."

Shen Cha tore up the small note after reading it and threw it into the hot charcoal pot. He asked Meilin to take the pen and paper, write two sentences on the paper, dry the ink on it, and roll the note Okay, put it in a small bamboo tube and give it to Mei Zhu. Let her wait until dark and give it to a boy selling fried glutinous rice cakes on a pole at the door of the post house.

"Hey, let me tell you, Mr. Yelu is too cautious. He knew you were coming and even sent someone to wait for you. However, his craftsmanship is pretty good and the little tiger did a decent job." Jin Jing picked up the piece. He took a bite of a grilled lamb chop and said, "He asked you for advice?"

"No, he has his own ideas. He just asked me whether it was appropriate for him to do that and whether it would cause trouble. After all, we are a cooperative relationship. If he causes trouble, it may implicate us." Shen Cha asked Mei Lin, Mei Zhu, Ying Qi, and Ying Ba sat down to eat. They picked up the pimple soup and took a sip. "What he means is that the trial must be carried out, but they must be released after the trial. Now is a critical period, and we can't Put it into practice.”

"..." Jin Jing threw the clean bone on the table and picked up another one, "That guy is innocent on the outside, but he's completely dark on the inside."

"Brother Xiaojing, what can you think of him doing? Isn't it as dark as him?"

Seeing Jin Jing staring at him, Shen Cha smiled, drank the soup in the bowl, and felt full after taking two bites of the food. He wiped his mouth with the handkerchief beside him, leaned on the pillow, and looked towards Ahead, thinking about my own thoughts.

"Okay, let's clean it up!" Jin Jing ate up a plate of grilled lamb chops and drank two large bowls of pimple soup. Finally, she filled her stomach. He stood up and walked around the room to eat. He said, "But what does he mean when he says everything is ready and you can rest assured?"

"We are setting up a net inside, and they are responsible for the outside. They can ensure that no... thieves are let go." Shen Cha rubbed his forehead and looked at the few people who had finished cleaning up, "While those people haven't started to act yet, , you all should have a rest when you go back. After Merlin finished delivering the news, he also took a moment to relax and recuperate. After arresting the person, he will be interrogated overnight, and when Mr. Nan comes tomorrow, he will be handed over to him."

"Yes, General!"

Shen Cha and Jin Jing chatted for a while, looked at the sky and saw that it was almost time, so they split up to prepare.

When it was time to set the watch, the entire post house gradually became quiet, and everyone fell asleep.

After almost a cup of tea, a dozen black figures quietly sneaked into the post house, stood in the yard and gestured to each other, leaving three people guarding the door of the post house, while the others all rushed towards the backyard. .

When they came to the backyard, using the light of the moon, the shadows took a look at the two-story building. They made gestures and discussed, leaving five or six people in the courtyard on the first floor, and the rest quietly Climbed up to the second floor.

In the two rooms in the middle of the second floor, one belongs to Jin Jing and the other belongs to Shen Cha. They discussed it and decided to solve the major problem of Shen Cha first. If Shen Cha dies, the people of Daxia will have no backbone. , it will naturally become a mess.

After making a decision, one of the dark figures stood up and walked to Shen Cha's door. He gently opened the door latch and carefully opened the door. Several people walked in quietly.

They stood at the door and did not rush into the house. Instead, they looked at the entire room carefully. Under the moonlight, they saw that there seemed to be someone lying on the bed. Even if they saw the person with their own eyes, they were afraid of being fooled. If they were ambushed, all their previous efforts would be in vain. So, they stood there and listened carefully. After confirming that there was indeed a slight and steady breathing in the room, they nodded to each other and continued to move forward, reaching the bedside smoothly. .

Standing beside the bed, they saw the people wrapped in thick quilts and sleeping soundly with their backs to them. They looked at each other and showed a contemptuous smile at the same time.

This legendary iron-blooded female general is nothing more than that. Her evil intentions and ruthless hands, as well as her intelligence and near-demon powers, are all blown out by others. Maybe she is indeed brave, but her scheming is not as powerful as in the legend. Otherwise, how could she Not even the slightest bit of defensiveness!

Several people stood in front of the bed for a while, and found that the person on the bed had no intention of waking up. They finally breathed a sigh of relief, made gestures to each other, and at the same time drew out their swords and slashed towards the bed.

Just when their knives were about to fall, eight hemp ropes were thrown out from all corners of the room, not only taking the knives out of their hands, but also knocking them to the ground.

"Fell into a trap!"
