After giving the instructions, King Zhao stared at Huang Yan with blood-red eyes and said: "Eunuch Huang, the wealth and life of this king and all my brothers are all on you! If you can close the secret passage, what if I make you a duke?"
!" He didn't say what would happen if he couldn't do it, because there was no need to discuss this issue...
Everyone couldn't help but secretly be jealous, thinking that the prince's reward was too generous. The dead eunuch could just report a letter and make him a duke with just a little effort? But they also knew that the news Huang Yan brought was too important, otherwise
After tomorrow morning, everything will be over! Moreover, the key to success or failure tonight is whether the dead eunuch can trap the warrior camp in the tunnel... Thinking about it this way, this dead eunuch really deserves the most credit, and it is fair to say that he can be made a duke.
of the past.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, our family knows it!" Huang Yan seemed not to have expected that King Zhao would give him such a generous reward, his voice trembled with excitement, and he nodded heavily.
"Okay!" King Zhao withdrew his gaze, slowly looked around at every face in the study, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, if we succeed tonight, I and you will share the wealth and honor! If we fail, we will share the same fate.
Go to hell!"
"We will follow the prince to the death!" Everyone responded loudly, and their chests were filled with a tragic feeling.
"Here comes the wine!" King Zhao shouted, and the eunuch in charge of the palace came in with a tray. There were twelve wine bowls on the tray, and the bowls were full of bright liquor!
King Zhao took out the dagger on the table and scratched the palm of his left hand, and blood gushed out. King Zhao dropped the blood into twelve bowls, and then handed the dagger to Wei Wuque who was standing aside. Wei Wuque's face was expressionless, but there was also
He followed the same example, cut his palm with a dagger, and dripped blood into each bowl.
After that, together with the eunuch in charge of King Zhao, the twelve people in the study all dripped their own blood into the bowl, and the wine in the bowl became extremely scarlet!
King Zhao picked up a bowl, and the others also picked up a bowl.
"Do it!" King Zhao raised the wine bowl and drank the blood wine with everyone. Then he wiped the blood from his mouth, smashed the wine bowl and said, "Go!"
Everyone also drank the blood wine in the bowl and wiped the blood on their mouths. The scholar Wang Zhao smashed the wine bowl and threw his hands towards him and left generously?
With a strange red color on his lips, King Zhao watched everyone disappear in the rain curtain. Under the service of the eunuch, he put on his poncho and left the study!
There was lightning and thunder between the sky and the earth, and it was raining heavily!
The rain fell hard and fast, and soon there was water on the street. A group of warriors wearing rain boots, bamboo hats, and ponchos, holding Dongchang lanterns, quickly headed towards Dongchang Hutong.
When they arrived in front of the Marquis Mansion located deep in the alley, Dongchang Fanzi, who was guarding the door, shouted loudly: "Who is coming?!"
"It's me!" One of the leaders took off his bamboo hat, revealing an old, beardless face.
"It's Eunuch Zou!" The crowd hurriedly knelt down on one knee. The person who came was the eunuch in charge of Dongchang, who along with Ma De was Zhao Ying's right-hand man.
Eunuch Zou snorted and led everyone into the concierge. Fanzi hurried forward to show his courtesy and wanted to help him take off his poncho, but Eunuch Zou raised his hand to stop him and said: "Our family has important things to do, no need!"
He took out a factory supervisor's token and said: "According to the order of our ancestors, I asked Le'an Hou and others if there is anything strange?"
Seeing Zhao Ying's token, the fans hurriedly knelt down again and respectfully reported: "Going back to our ancestors, according to Eunuch Zou, the Marquis of Le'an was still planting vegetables in the yard in the afternoon and asked us for oilcloth.
He said it’s going to rain heavily, so don’t spoil his vegetables.”
Eunuch Zou frowned, but still endured and continued to listen to what he said. "The children were so troubled that they found him an oilcloth. After he covered the vegetable garden, he and the people below ate briefly.
Dinner, I should have gone to bed by now..."
Eunuch Zou snorted again and said to Wei Wuque, who was wearing a bamboo hat behind him: "I didn't expect that the famous Marquis Le'an actually became a vegetable farmer."
Wei Wuque took off his bamboo hat, revealing his once magnificent face, but now full of vicissitudes of life, and ignored Eunuch Zou.
He ignored Eunuch Zou, and some people rushed to praise Eunuch Zou's stinky feet. Immediately, the leader of Dongchang said with a smile: "If it falls into the hands of our Dongchang, it will have to be coiled up if it is a dragon, and it will have to lie down if it is a tiger. You still want to
How about calling for wind and rain? Just grow vegetables..."
"Hahahaha!" Everyone laughed.
"It's a pity that he (he) can't even become a vegetable farmer..." Eunuch Zou said in a negative tone.
"Why, are you sending him off today?" Everyone in the East Factory was horrified when they heard this, and they all stopped laughing.
Eunuch Zou nodded and asked coldly: "How many people are there in him?"
"Not counting him and his blind wife, there are ten people." His subordinates reported quickly.
"Don't be careless, and you have to use all your strength to fight the rabbit!" Eunuch Zou said in a deep voice. The second half of his sentence was actually to comfort himself. The person he had to deal with was Wang Xian, so no matter how cautious he was, he couldn't be too cautious.
"Yes!" The gangsters responded loudly, and two hundred archers quietly climbed up the high wall of the inner courtyard, and aimed their bows and arrows at the courtyard.
Another hundred powerful warriors with high martial arts skills, wearing helmets and armor and holding weapons, kicked open the closed courtyard door and rushed in with a bang.
Outside the courtyard gate, there were still 200 Dongchang fans standing ready to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the chaos and escaping.
A full 500 of Dongchang's elite men were used to deal with a dozen or so people. Eunuch Zou thought everything was safe, so he said to Wei Wuque who was standing aside: "Master, please."
Wei Wuque pursed his lips tightly, nodded slightly, and walked into the courtyard without squinting.
Eunuch Zou was quite disdainful of Wei Wuque's arrogance, thinking to himself, isn't he just the face of King Zhao? Could it be that he thought he could become the queen in the future?
Putting away the joking in his heart, Eunuch Zou, surrounded by a group of expert guards, entered the heavily surrounded courtyard.
There was originally a dead silence in the small courtyard. The heavy rain poured down, covering up the footsteps of more than a hundred Dongchang fans. The fans were divided into several teams and rushed into the few rooms like wolves and tigers.
But no exclamations were heard from inside.
The fans were surprised and used torches to illuminate the room. They saw the quilts on the kang towering high, as if someone was sleeping inside.
But when the bandits carefully opened the bedding with knives, there were only pillows and wooden stools inside, and there were no figures anywhere.
Fanzi who went to each house came out almost at the same time to report to Eunuch Zou:
“Father-in-law, there’s no one inside!”
"Father-in-law, there is no one in this room!"
"Neither does this one!"
Listening to the reports from everywhere, Eunuch Zou's pale golden face gradually became darker and darker. He grabbed the leader of the Dongchang in charge here and roared like he wanted to eat people: "What's going on?
!Human? Where have you gone?!"
"Young man, I don't even know..." The leader of the Dongchang Factory was also puzzled, and said with a confused expression: "You were here just now, how come you disappeared in the blink of an eye?"
"You're still asking me?!" Eunuch Zou slapped the leader hard and knocked him to the ground. The eunuch who was following him tried to hold an umbrella for him, but Eunuch Zou pushed him away and let the rain pour on him, screaming.
Get up: "Search for me!"
The gangsters hurriedly searched all over the yard, trying to find some clues.
Eunuch Zou was angrily spinning around in the heavy rain. He never expected that such an easy task would be messed up by him? You must know that before this moment, everyone thought that Wang Xian had become a caged bird.
Withered Bones, killing him is just a matter of effort.
Wei Wuque on the side smiled, as if the puzzle he had been thinking about had the answer, and his smile was full of relief that "that's it".
"Why are you laughing? Mr. Wei!" Eunuch Zou was furious. He didn't care about King Zhao's face and stared at Wei Wuque as if he wanted to eat someone.
"I laugh at you for being so stupid. You have been manipulated by Wang Xian for so many years, and yet you still believe that he will kill you at the first glance." Wei Wuque chuckled, walked to the yard in the heavy rain, and laughed loudly: "He
If I fall into your hands so easily, doesn't it mean that I am worse than a pig?"
"Whose side are you on?!" Eunuch Zou was furious.
Wei Wuque didn't care about the eunuch's anger. He walked leisurely in the heavy rain and came to the vegetable garden under the south wall. He sneered: "You can't even see through this trick, and you still want to fight with him?!"
After saying that, Wei Wuque shook his hands and lifted up the large piece of oilcloth covering the vegetable field. Everyone in the East Factory looked over in confusion, only to see darkness and confusion.
At this time, a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky, and every detail in the small courtyard suddenly appeared. Only then did everyone see clearly that there was a hole the size of a well in the center of the vegetable field?!
Everyone in the East Factory was stunned. Eunuch Zou didn't even bother to jump. He took three steps and two steps at a time and jumped to the entrance of the cave. He looked at the deep hole and roared heartbreakingly: "What do you do for food? Let others dig it.
You didn’t even know there was such a big hole?!”
The leader of the East Factory also ran over, lay down at the entrance of the hole and looked in. He suddenly felt helpless, but he couldn't figure out how the hole was dug?!
You should know that Dongchang monitors the small courtyard all-weather. No matter day or night, there are people on the high walls monitoring every move in the courtyard. Every day, there are agents who search every room, just to prevent them from digging.
Escape from the hole! Who knew that even with all the precautions, they still let them dig a hole...
"How could that happen? How could this happen?" The leader of the East Factory sat down on the muddy ground and said in despair with rain on his face: "How could they have the opportunity to dig a hole in the ground?"
"Of course they can't dig a hole by themselves, and they don't have to dig a hole by themselves." Wei Wuque looked at the deep hole and chuckled again, "Because the hole was dug from the outside."
"Digging from the outside?" The leader of the East Factory shook his head in disbelief: "How is that possible? Besides, there are listening urns on all sides of the yard to prevent digging holes!"
"That's why they tinkered with the vegetable garden and used the sound of digging on the ground to cover up the digging underground." Wei Wuque said calmly as if he saw it with his own eyes: "At the same time, the sound of turning the ground can also indicate the direction of the digging underground."
As he stood, Wei Wuque glanced at the oilcloth on the ground and sneered: "It wasn't until tonight that they opened the tunnel, so they asked you for the oilcloth to cover it."
