Lu Ying and Su San were just stunned, while Wen Baer was full of shock. Compared to the two of them, he understood the difficulty of measuring distance better, not to mention that it was a distance that had not been traveled at all, and he could calculate it out of thin air.
, Furthermore, looking at Xu Zizhen's expression, it is obvious that he is extremely confident in the accuracy of his calculations.
Xu Zizhen smiled and patted his shoulder: "Baer, I'll leave the rest to you. I'll meet you again in a few days."
"Okay." Wen Baer nodded reluctantly, but still couldn't come to his senses.
He was originally a member of Du Jin. When Xu Zizhen first met Du Jin in that small valley, he was next to him. In addition, he was also a member of the Xixia Yun family, but he only belonged to a foreign relative, which is commonly known as the branch family.
With his status and bloodline, it was almost impossible to be reused in the Yun clan, known as the first family in Xixia, so when Du Jin followed Xu Zizhen, Wen Baer also decided to follow him.
Xu Zizhen was the Prince Consort of Xixia, the benefactor of the Emperor of Xixia, and the unofficial husband-in-law of the daughter of the head of the Yun family. It could be said that his future was limitless. Wen Baer chose to marry Xu Zizhen with the intention of benefiting his future. He
I used to know that Xu Zizhen was brave and courageous, but I never knew that he could actually do this magical calculation. With his eyesight and experience, he couldn't understand the meaning of the things and symbols Xu Zizhen drew.
After the arrangements for the tunnel were completed, Xu Zizhen did not stay any longer. He left the matter to Wen Baer without any suspense. With his many years of experience in digging graves and the mechanical skills of Sanjuetang, he dug this short tunnel.
It's like playing.
Su San continued to contact her father's old friends, Lu Ying was responsible for arranging cronies to help Wen Baer, and Xu Zizhen slowly walked back to Jinying humming a small tune.
…
In Jin camp, in a large tent, Wu Shu was sitting quietly alone, meditating. Wanyan Zongwang's avoidance was his idea, in order to give him time to observe some details in secret, because he always felt that the Song envoy was here.
There seems to be something wrong, but I believe there will be an answer soon, because he found someone in the Song Dynasty mission who can solve his doubts.
Suddenly, an announcement came from outside the tent: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty Wang is here."
Wu Shu raised his eyebrows and smiled softly: "Come in."
A Song official bowed slightly and walked in from behind the curtain, with a flattering smile on his round face, and a pair of small eyes flashing with complex expressions, including awe, fear, and joy. This is
Wang Yun, who was the Minister of Punishment in the Song Dynasty today.
Wushu sent people to secretly invite him over, which made him feel a variety of mixed emotions. Now that the war between Song and Jin Dynasties has begun, and the Great Song Dynasty has been retreating, the people may not feel anything yet, but with his meticulous Wang Yun
He had already seen some signs in his mind. Perhaps the Song Dynasty would collapse and even be destroyed by the Jin Dynasty. He naturally had to make preparations earlier to prepare for a rainy day.
"Master Wang!" Wu Shu stood up and came over with a smile. Wang Yun was immediately flattered by the kind look on his face.
"Your Majesty, Wang Yun, pays homage to the Fourth Prince!" Wang Yun lifted up his robe and was about to bow down.
Wu Shu held him up and pretended to be surprised: "Why is Mr. Wang so generous? This is impossible."
Wang Yun bowed and flattered and said with a smile: "The Kingdom of Jin is at its peak, but our Song Dynasty has been weak for many years. It's like Jin is your uncle and Song is your nephew. Isn't it natural for a nephew to meet his uncle?" After that, he bowed respectfully.
.
Wu Shu secretly sneered in his heart and was very disdainful of Wang Yun's servile emphasis, but he still had a look of surprise on his face: "Master Wang, please get up quickly, Wu Shu cannot afford such a great gift from you, come on.
Come, let's sit down and talk." He said so, but still waited for Wang Yun to finish his salute before pulling him up and asking him to sit down.
Wang Yun sat down carefully, with his butt resting on only one side of the chair. He was good at flattering and thoughtful, so he naturally understood what Wu Shu meant by inviting him here. Therefore, before Wu Shu could speak, he simply asked: "
I'm sorry for my bluntness, but I wonder what the fourth prince ordered me to do when he summoned me?"
Wu Shu smiled, Wang Yun was indeed a smart man, and he had such thoughts. In this case, there was no need to be secretive anymore.
"Your Majesty, please speak quickly. I don't have anything important to ask you. I just have some questions that I would like to ask your Majesty."
"When the fourth prince invites you, I will tell you everything I know."
Wu Shu smiled with satisfaction and asked: "I would like to ask, what position does your Prince Kang hold in the court now?"
Wang Yun shook his head: "Kang Kang has no official position."
Wu Shu was stunned and asked curiously: "How come you don't have an official position? Don't you, the prince of the Song Dynasty, become an official in any country when you grow up?"
Wang Yun's face became a little embarrassed, and he muttered a few times before saying: "Well...Kang Wang was not idle at first, but something happened a few days ago, and he was punished by the officials out of anger."
"Oh?" Wu Shu chuckled, "Master Wang, can you tell me what he did to make you, the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, so angry?"
Wang Yun hesitated for a moment, raised his head slightly to look at Wu Shu, and said cautiously: "The fourth prince should know that Tianxiahui, right?"
The smile on Wu Shu's face suddenly froze. How could he not know that since the army went south, they have been attacked by the secret hands of the Tianxiahui. A considerable number of generals in the army have been attacked and assassinated for no apparent reason. Although among them
Many of them were committed by the Jianghu people among the Song people, but more of them were caused by this mysterious Tianxiahui.
Wang Yun lowered his voice and continued: "Xiaoguan once heard that Prince Kang has some unclear relationship with Tianxiahui. There are even rumors that he has a pivotal position in Tianxiahui."
Wu Shu was slightly shocked. He did not expect that Zhao Gou actually had such a secret identity. If Wang Yun had not revealed it today, he would never have associated Zhao Gou, the prince of the Song Dynasty, with that kind of Jianghu force.
Wang Yun noticed Wu Shu's solemn look, and couldn't help but feel nervous. He quickly added: "Oh, this is just what I heard from a lower official. I don't know the truth."
Wu Shu took a deep breath and quickly calmed down. The world would be a serious problem. If the Jin Army wanted to completely gain a foothold on Hebei Road, this hurdle must be cleared. His mind was spinning rapidly.
Suddenly, something came to mind: "Master Wang, do you know the guard next to King Kang?"
Wang Yun thought for a while: "The fourth prince is talking about Yanzhao? I have met him several times. This man is very skilled and he is a confidant of Prince Kang."
This answer didn't need to be explained by Wang Yun, Wu Shu could see it. He nodded and asked: "Then... what are the backgrounds of the handymen accompanying King Kang? Does Mr. Wang know?"
