Chapter 51 Snake, Mantis, Cicada

"Who is it?" But after hearing what the old man said, the scholar also took the silk in the old man's hand and looked at it carefully.

There are two portraits painted on this silk. The portraits depict a man and a woman.

The man is young and the woman is even younger.

Looking at the two portraits, the scholar looked confused at first, and then as if his hand was suddenly burned by something, he threw the silk to the ground.

"Father...Father...he...he is..." The scholar's tone was startled and uncertain.

"snort!"

Ignoring the scholar's shocked and distorted face, the old man said in an extremely gloomy and hoarse voice: "This fake emperor is really capable. Not only did he leave the palace, he could also find Peng Yue. If I hadn't stayed, This kind of thinking made people go to Peng Yue to paint these two portraits, huh..." ??

"Sir!" But after listening to what the old man said, the middle-aged general in armor among the three also asked the old man in a deep voice: "Sir, what should we do now?"

"What should we do?" But after listening to the general's question, the old man said with a hint of coldness on his lips: "Of course, we should continue to lie dormant and wait for the opportunity."

"Waiting for the right time? Your husband means it's coming soon?"

"Yeah. It's almost time! When we exhaust Wang Mang's patience, that's when Wang Mang and the false emperor's plan will appear. All you have to do is wait and wait, because compared to us, Wang Mang can't delay it at all. .”

But after listening to what the old man said, the bookish Confucian scholar among the three people also said to the old man with shame: "It's all my fault that my husband has to worry so much. If I could have discovered the strangeness in this matter at that time... …”

"It's not your fault. I just walked a little longer than you did."

After saying this to the Confucian scholar, the old man said to himself: "There is just one thing that I really can't figure out. This false emperor has no foundation whether he is in the palace or outside the palace. Since he has no foundation, he has no foundation. How did you find out about Peng Yue? How did you get out of the city under the nose of Wang Mang's army? Also, where did the yellow-haired girl in this painting come from? How come I have never seen this girl in the palace? Girl?"

Speaking of this, the old man seemed to suddenly think of something and suddenly picked up the silk on the ground and looked at it carefully.

This time, the old man's eyes only fell on the face of the woman in the painting.

Look carefully, look twice!
> After taking a closer look, the old man suddenly blurted out: "Why did I forget her?"

"She, who is she? Does my father know this yellow-haired girl in the painting?"

"I don't know!"

A pair of eyebrows frowned even more, and in the midst of it, the old man suddenly laughed and said: "Haha, I see, I understand..."

"What did father understand?"

"What did your husband understand?"

In the hearts of the three of them, this old man's wisdom is undoubtedly the best in the world.

And the three of them are even more convinced that no one in the whole world can be found smarter than their heavenly hand.

Holding the silk in his hand, the old man said in a tone of insight: "This girl is the queen's adopted sister. The reason why Peng Yue was discovered is that her adopted sister happened to be in Xixin Mansion at that time, and Peng Yue did not find her.

, but she discovered Peng Yue."

"I didn't expect it!" At this point, the old man actually started to praise Li Mu: "I didn't expect that this boy actually did it. He really deserved the trouble I made for him in the court."

When the old man said this, he also indirectly revealed his identity.

That's right, this old man is Jia Xu, the Heavenly Hand of the Anaconda Sect.

And the person who called him father was his son Jia Ji.

As for the Wen Yiwu standing under the pavilion, the Wu is Tiankui Zhanghan, and the Wen is Chilong Liangji!

If Wang Mang saw Zhang Han and Liang Ji here at this moment, he would definitely be shocked.

This is Liang Ji, because Liang Ji and Qin Hui went to northern Hebei a few days ago.

Both of these two men were Wang Mang's confidants, but their real allegiance was to Jia Xu, who had long since ignored the government and was retiring in his palace.

"The weakling can be disciplined if he disobeys, but what should we do if the emperor disobeys?"

After saying this to himself, Jia Xu slowly turned his eyes to Liang Ji and said, "Liang Ji, it's time for you to go back."

"Go back?" But after hearing what Jia Xu said, Liang Ji looked excited.

He said: "Sir, can't you wait any longer?"

"Well, no wait! Since this false emperor wants to use Wang Mang's help to get rid of me, then I don't need to be polite to him."

"Get rid of father? What does father mean by this?"

"Young Master!" But after listening to Jia Ji's question, Liang Ji guided him: "Young Master, do you think that the false emperor can deal with your superior husband even if he can find it?"

"How is this possible? We have three thousand dead soldiers in the city and General Zhang Han's five thousand soldiers and horses. What can the false emperor do to fight us?"

"That's it! Since this false emperor knows that he can't deal with us, why does he go to such great lengths to check us out?"

"Of course..." Jia Ji was about to blurt out, but suddenly stopped talking.

But seeing that Jia Ji had already figured it out, Liang Ji praised him and said: "Of course I want to drive the tiger away and devour the wolf. But who is the wolf? The fake emperor may not have figured it out yet."

After saying this to Jia Ji, Liang Ji clasped his fists at Jia Xu and said, "Sir, I'll take my leave now."

"Well! Go ahead, it's time to add some new firewood to the fire you planted in Wang Mang's heart."

The spark of fire in Jia Xu's mouth was the secret letter Liang Ji sent to Wang Mang.

The content of the secret letter was that the emperor died and asked him to return to the court!

As for the informant who had tipped off Liang Ji before but later changed his story, he was actually a dead soldier of their Anaconda sect.

As for the purpose of doing this, it was to make Wang Mang somewhere between doubting and trusting Li Mu's identity.

Only in this way can they use Li Mu's identity to completely manipulate Wang Mang.

Ma Su was assassinated on his way to Chengbei Camp!

When he fled into the city's army camp, the first and only thing he said to the city army before he fell into coma was that he wanted to see the general.

A lieutenant general was assassinated on his way to Chengbei Camp!

As soon as this news reached the general's palace, Wang Mang was immediately furious.

In Wang Mang's rage, the city guard who reported the news bravely reported to Wang Mang: "Report to the general, Ma Zhonglang said before he fell into coma that he wanted to see the general."

"see me?"

<
br> But after hearing the report from this city garrison, Wang Mang immediately stood up.

"Come here, prepare your horses and go to the city to prepare your camp!"

Liangji is a city that was taken out of the city through a secret passage.

When he rushed back to the general's mansion after a long journey, the black armored guard guarding the gate told him that Ma Su had been assassinated and that the general had gone to the city to prepare the camp.

"Ma Su? Assassinated?"

But after hearing what the black-armored guard said, Liang Ji thought for a moment and said, "That Ma Su is the one who opened the city gate for the general when he was unable to attack Jianghuai for a long time."

"Coming back to Liang's military advisor, it's that Ma Di."

"It turns out it was him. He was assassinated at the right time. Go and tell the general immediately that I have returned from Northern Hebei and I have urgent matters to inform the general."

"Promise, I will repay my humble position to the general!"

After replying to Liang Ji, the black-armored guard went to the stable to fetch the horse.

After pulling out the horse, just when the black-armored guard was about to get on his horse, Liang Ji suddenly walked quickly to him and took the horse's reins: "I think I'd better go in person."

The city prepares camp, and Ma Di has woken up.

There were three wounds on his body, one on his head, one on his shoulder, and one on his right abdomen.

When Wang Mang opened the military tent and came in, the medical officer was applying medicine to Ma Su.

Before he could salute Wang Mang in time, Ma Su pushed away the medical officer who was applying medicine to Wang Mang and said anxiously to Wang Mang: "General, there are going to be hundreds of thousands of urgent matters that I want to report to the general."

But seeing Ma Su's serious expression, Wang Mang didn't dare to wave his hands and retreat.

Blood overflowed from Fang's bandaged wound. Ma Su tightly covered his right abdomen and walked to Wang Mang with difficulty and said: "General, I encountered two suspicious people near the Huang Temple in the north of the city last night. Those two people,

One person's appearance cannot be clearly seen, but the other person is wearing a snake-head mask."

"Snake head mask?" Wang Mang directly chose to ignore the Huang Temple in the north of the city, but asked Ma Di about the snake head mask.

"Yes! The general felt that the behavior of these two people was very suspicious, so he hid in the dark and observed the two people secretly. After the meeting between the two was over, the general quietly followed the man with the snake head mask. At the end,

Following this person all the way, the person wearing the snake head mask actually entered..."
