In Zhenjing City, Zhesheng was hiding in the shadows on the street corner, staring at the mahjong parlor across the street.
The pressure from the Prince Regent has been increasing recently. In order to help Shaodian Tong clear his name, all the personnel of the Intelligence Department in Zhenjing City have been busy day and night. The head of the Intelligence Hall has not seen his own door for five days.
, the leader of the Killer Hall who came out again is naturally not idle either.
Seeing that the court trial was about to end, Zhe Sheng decided to make one final attempt and test it out with Nian Si.
The connection method from the last time had failed, and Nian Si's whereabouts were even more hidden. He eliminated several places before finding this mahjong parlor.
Due to the turmoil in the current situation, there were not many guests going to the mahjong parlor. He stayed there all morning and saw few people coming in or out. However, just before noon, a carriage filled with food came to the side entrance of the mahjong parlor.
There are not many people in a small and medium-sized mahjong parlor, and such a cart of food is enough to last for half a year, which is abnormal!
He narrowed his eyes and then disappeared into the shadows.
Several handymen were unloading the grain from the cart to the side courtyard. In the process, a figure appeared and walked directly into the inner courtyard.
At the same time, Zhe Sheng jumped into the backyard of the mahjong parlor.
Even though he had not carried out a mission for several years, he was still strong and able to sneak into the inner courtyard without anyone noticing.
Huh? It's him.
Zhe Sheng spotted a familiar figure.
Huh, suddenly there was a gust of wind in his ears.
Oops! There are experts!
Experience told him that someone was ambushing him behind him, so he quickly used his feet and pounced forward.
"Show mercy!"
He recognized that it was Nian Si's voice, and then he felt a pain in the back of his head, his eyes went dark, and he fainted.
Ding Kui's figure appeared behind Zhe Sheng, holding Zhe Sheng's strength with one hand and looking at Nian Si with doubt in his eyes.
"Sir, he doesn't mean any harm." Nian Si quickly ran over.
"Oh? Who is he? Why is he so secretive?" Ding Kui grabbed the Sheng and looked at it.
"He is the leader of the Killer Hall, and he has an old relationship with Beizhi. He probably came here to get some information, otherwise he would have brought people to arrest Beizhi." Nian Si quickly explained.
"Yeah." Ding Kui stretched out his finger and pointed at the head of the folding sheng a few times, then gently put it down, "You can handle it later."
"Thank you, sir!" Nian Si dragged the unconscious Zhe Sheng into the next room.
Ding Kui followed him into the room.
"Just say it here."
"Yes! The recent situation is like this..."
Ding Kui and his wife sneaked back to the capital with the help of Shao Dianmian. In order to understand the latest developments in the capital, he came to see Nian Si and happened to meet the sneaky Zhe Sheng.
After Nian Si finished reporting, he looked at his feet and asked, "Where did this person come from?"
"His name is Zhe Sheng. He belongs to the Zhe family of the spy department. It sounds like he has some connection with you."
"oh?"
"When you were assassinated in your old house in Xiaxi Town, he was ordered to go to Cao State to carry out revenge. He assassinated many Cao State nobles and killed one of Yao Mang's illegitimate sons." Nian Sixi said nicely, fearing that Ding Kui would be unhappy.
So he took action to kill Zhe Sheng.
"So I still owe him a favor." Ding Kui looked at Zhe Sheng again.
"You can't say that. It was an order from Mr. Shaodian Mi. He just followed the order." Nian Si did not forget to say good things to his immediate superior.
"Haha, is there any way to win him over?" Ding Kui thought of Zhe Lan from his hometown, with whom he had some friendship.
Nian Si shook his head and said: "The Zhe family has a deep foundation in the Intelligence Department and will not easily choose sides. He did not want to choose a side and left the Intelligence Department before."
"Understood." Ding Kui nodded, "Before the Summer Festival, the main purpose is to gather information. You should not arrange other actions. If you find that the situation is not right, evacuate."
"Yes!" Nian Si bowed his hands and obeyed the order.
Zhe Sheng woke up leisurely and saw Nian Si sitting across from him. He jumped up and asked, "How did you know I was coming? You actually ambush a master."
"That's not right!" He touched the back of his head, "If you had known in advance, you wouldn't have shouted that way." Only then did he react.
"Hey, you narrowly escaped death. If I had reacted slower, you would have turned into a corpse." Nian Si crossed his arms.
Zhe Sheng calmed down and moved a chair to sit down.
"You actually dare to send a sixth-level warrior to the capital, and you are not afraid of being trapped here?"
"Don't make random guesses, it won't do you any good. Tell me, why are you here with me?"
"Uh, okay." Zhe Sheng curled his lips, "Why did you plan to frame Shaodian Tong?"
"Wait! Don't talk nonsense. Shaodian Tong's matter has nothing to do with us." Nian Si denied it.
"It really has nothing to do with you?" Zhe Sheng stared at Nian Si.
Nian Si shrugged.
Zhe Sheng didn't see anything, so he could only nod his head and said: "There is a lot of pressure from above, and they might find someone to take the blame. You are the best candidates."
"Understood." Nian Si raised his hand to make a "please" gesture.
…
At the headquarters of the 7th Division, Hui Meng summoned his captains to discuss the military situation.
"Tonight, the 1st, 5th, and 10th brigades will launch a surprise attack on the rebel outposts, mainly killing the scouts. Each brigades will be able to retreat after beheading a hundred heads..." the staff officer explained the battle plan in detail.
"If we just decapitate people at level 100, we may provoke enemy retaliation, and our recruits account for a relatively large proportion, so there is no advantage with such a large number." The first captain asked.
"The new recruits will become veterans after fighting a few more times. Our troops can go deep to lure the enemy. You two brigades will attack the enemy's flanks in a roundabout way, which will definitely expand the results." Jiang Xiong, captain of the Tenth Brigade, had a more radical idea.
Dudududu, Hui Meng knocked on the military case and said: "This is an order from the theater command. You must strictly implement it and you are not allowed to change it without authorization!"
"Also, this battle will be subsidized with money, so you don't have to work too hard."
He spoke to such an extent that no captain could not understand him, and the pre-war meeting ended quickly.
Jiang Xiong deliberately slowed down and waited for the others to finish walking before stopping. "Sir, can I not ask for money? My captain still owes me some battle merit."
"No!" Hui Meng said in a low voice, "This military order comes from the top. The military merits obtained this time will not be recorded in the files of the Commander-in-Chief's Office, and there is no way to deduct the military merits for you."
"What? It can be like this." Jiang Xiong's eyes were as big as copper bells. In terms of military experience, he was not even as good as a squad leader, and he couldn't memorize formal military laws, let alone those unspoken rules that couldn't be made explicit.
"Oh, silly boy! Don't ask what you shouldn't ask. If you don't want to go, I can replace you with someone else." Hui Meng didn't want to explain too much.
"Go, my subordinate! As long as it is your order, I will go without any money!" Jiang Xiong was not stupid, and he vaguely guessed something.
…
The sensational case of Shaodian Tong's violation of Dong Jin and Bing Lulu was finally concluded. The Attorney General's Office found Shaodian Tong guilty of breaking into a private house, illegally confining and lynching. The other charges were dropped due to insufficient evidence, and Shaodian was eventually sentenced to
Copper was imprisoned for one year.
"What? It's only one year!" Shaodian Luan was very dissatisfied.
"It would be good if we can convict him. You should know that his current status is not much worse than that of a prince." Ding Kui could accept this result.
