The reason why Wang Xian withdrew to Yanshui Manor was that it was easy to defend and difficult to attack. More importantly, it was because of the secret passage mentioned by Elder Tang. If he could sneak out of the encirclement through the secret passage, it would certainly be much safer than trying to break through the siege.
Lin San had a deep understanding of the White Lotus Sect and soon found the location of the mechanism in the kitchen on the first floor... Of course, this was also related to the fact that the secret passage had just been opened, and clear traces appeared on the black and gray walls.
While Wang Xian sent people down to check, he also ordered people to resist the encirclement and suppression by the army. It is said that at this time, people only want to protect themselves, how can they be in the mood to consider other things? But Wang Xian did not want to confirm that this stone building was really a design.
After the ingenious fortification, he simply refused to let his men reveal their identity again - because he had a bold idea to take advantage of the fire. After one of his guards returned from the secret passage and confirmed that they could leave, he announced his plan to everyone.
When they heard that he wanted to capture Ji Song alive, both Shuai Hui and Xu Gong were shocked. We can now protect ourselves thanks to the turtle shell, but if we want to capture the opponent's general under the protection of two thousand soldiers and horses,
It's just wishful thinking
But Lin San was very impressed and said that this is enough for a man.
Shuai Hui and Xu Gong didn't dare to be rude to Wang Xian, but they didn't care about Lin San. They both gave him a big roll of their eyes: "Don't stand and talk without hurting your back. If you have the ability, go and capture Ji Song."
"Who will go if I don't go?" Lin San glanced at them and sneered: "Is it up to you?"
"You..." Xu Gong and the two were very angry. Wang Xian shouted in a low voice, which silenced the two of them.
After kicking the two of them aside to cool off, Wang Xian asked Lin San for advice on how to capture the thief and capture the king.
Lin San said: "It's simple, just look at me..." As he spoke, he untied his hair tie, spread his hair, and revealed a bright silver lotus flower.
Next, it was Lin Sange's personal performance time. He pretended to be a ghost and had superb martial arts, allowing him to successfully lure Ji Qianhu into the corridor, and then captured him in one fell swoop and returned safely.
This is like the football and basketball games of later generations. It is often the incredible performance of superstars that brings victory.
After capturing Ji Song on the stone tower, Wang Xian continued his efforts, tricking the other party into withdrawing their troops and preparing ships. However, he seized the time and escaped through the secret passage. However, when they came out of the secret passage, they encountered an ambush... On land, on the shore, in the reed swamps
In the middle, countless soldiers armed with bows and crossbows appeared, aiming at them from all directions.
Wang Xian was shocked at first, but when he saw the distinctive red cotton armor on these soldiers, he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and said loudly: "I am Wang Xian, where is Mr. Taitai?"
"Put away your bows and arrows." After a moment, Qianhu, who was in charge of the inspection, asked his men to take off their guard and asked Wang Xian to get on the boat.
On the boat, Zhou Xin, who was wearing a casual robe and tall and thin, saw Wang Xian, whom he had been looking for all night, with a trace of joy on his glacier face that had not changed for thousands of years. He rarely joked: "You bastard, you Hangzhou
As the saying goes, if you don't stay overnight at sixty, you will shorten the life of the elderly."
"Hey, I do it occasionally, it doesn't matter." Wang Xian jumped on the boat, bowed deeply to Zhou Zhengtai, and said with a smile: "How did you find this place?"
"My men will arrest a few White Lotus cultists quickly, and you will know as soon as you ask them." Zhou Xin said calmly.
"Oh?" Wang Xian looked at Lin San in the distance. It was estimated that he couldn't hear him at this distance, so he asked in a low voice: "Is there a girl?"
"No." Zhou Xin shook his head, "All the elite soldiers I trained have been handed over to you. Now these subordinates are too sparse. Their number is several times that of the opponent, and most of them have been broken out. I sent people to chase, but I guess there is little hope.
." He paused and said, "What, is there the person you are looking for?"
"I don't know yet, it's a private matter," Wang Xian said nonchalantly, "I'd like to inform you, sir. If you catch a woman, don't mess around. I'll interrogate you after I've seen it."
"That's the only bad thing about you, you regard the law of the country as nothing." People like Zhou Zhitai, who regard the law as a standard, have always hated such lawless guys, but Wang Xian is an exception. He sighed: "Okay,
Who told you to speak..."
"Thank you, Sir." Wang Xian couldn't help but said happily: "I will try my best not to make things difficult for you, Sir."
"It doesn't matter, I believe you are sensible." Zhou Xin said, turning back to the present moment: "Are you going back by yourself, or with me?"
"I'm afraid I have to rely on the boss's protection to go back." Wang Xian smiled sheepishly.
"Why, Jin Yiwei is so arrogant that he dares to do evil things to the imperial guards during the day?" Zhou Xin frowned and said angrily: "Then I really want to judge with them."
"At this point, it's better not to mess with them," Wang Xian said with a small nose and small eyes, "I just arrested Ji Song..."
"Uh..." Zhou Xin swallowed and said, "Then they may not be reasonable now."
"This is exactly the reason." Wang Xian said with a smile: "So let's go back to the city first and then make a long-term plan."
"Yeah." Zhou Xin ordered the ship to sail, and after a moment of silence, he said to Wang Xian, "You didn't capture Ji Song just to escape danger, right?"
"No, I have a secret way. I can leave whenever I want," Wang Xian had always been honest with Zhou Xin, because his wise eyes could see through all lies. "I went through all this effort just to catch him."
He smiled and said: "I have wanted to arrest him for a long time. I was worried about not being able to get into Luyuan. I didn't expect this guy to come to my door by himself."
"Why are you arresting him? Although he is nothing, you can't afford to offend Ji Gang." Zhou Xin and Jin Yiwei had a deep hatred, so naturally he was happy to see them suffer misfortune, but he couldn't look at Wang Xian and ask for danger.
Wang Xian didn't say anything, and Zhou Xin asked: "Is it because he tricked you during the provincial examination? But didn't you pass the examination successfully?"
Wang Xian shook his head this time and said: "That's not the case." He said word by word: "I captured Ji Song just for Ji Gang."
"Ji Gang?" When Wang Xian said this, Zhou Zhitai was stunned: "Are you crazy?"
"I'm not crazy, and I'm not going to deal with him now," Wang Xian looked at Zhou Xin's concerned face and felt warm in his heart: "Don't worry, sir, I'm sensible. I just want to talk to Ji Song, will I?"
Put him back."
"Put it back?" Zhou Xin said with a dark face: "Will he accept your love?"
"Of course not, what do you mean?"
Zhou Xin sighed helplessly and whispered: "If you don't do it, you won't stop..."
"Isn't this illegal?" Wang Xian said in surprise. You were talking about me just now. Are you going to do something even more cruel?
"Why don't you force me?" Zhou Xin glared at him and said, "Let's not mention that you can't offend Ji Gang at all. What is Ji Song's identity? If you dare to kidnap an imperial envoy, you will lose your head."
He sighed and said: "For the current plan, we can only make him disappear forever and put the blame on the White Lotus Cult. Maybe nothing will happen."
"..." Looking at Zhou Xin like a father hurriedly wiping his son's butt, Wang Xian felt warm in his heart and said softly: "Don't worry, sir, Ji Gang won't know, and neither will the court."
"How do you say it?" Zhou Xin frowned slightly and asked.
"Now the Jinyiwei Qianhu Office and Zhejiang Dusi will definitely hide it if they can. They will not report it until they are completely desperate." Wang Xiandao. Deceiving superiors and concealing subordinates is the secret of being an official, let alone such a fatal matter.
.
"Yeah." Zhou Xin nodded and said, "What about Ji Song, can you guarantee that he will keep secrets from his uncle after he returns?"
"He will definitely keep it secret." Wang Xian said with a proud smile on his face: "I have a trump card."
"Okay then." Seeing that he was confident, Zhou Xin stopped asking and just said calmly: "Be careful not to lose your temper."
"Yes." Wang Xian nodded in agreement.
"It's better for you to be less involved in the affairs of the court..." The boat sailed to the place where the officers and soldiers of Zhensi dismounted. Zhou Xin ordered to get off the boat and advised Wang Xian: "Although you are extremely smart, your strength gap with them is too big. You can defeat them all with one force."
After ten meetings, you won’t get any benefit.”
"Yes, I remember." Wang Xian nodded and said, "I just want to know more about Jin Yiwei's ancestors. Don't worry, I'm not tired of living yet, so I won't act rashly."
"That's good." Zhou Xin stopped talking, abandoned the boat and mounted his horse, and led the crowd back to the secret passage. Just when Du Baihu came out of it, Zhou Xin slapped Du Baihu in the face and taught him a lesson.
He was stunned for a moment, and then left angrily. Du Baihu never expected that Master Qianhu, whom he had been looking for in vain, would be in Zhou Zhitai's team.
Recalling the thrills and ups and downs of last night, Wang Xian tossed and turned and found it difficult to fall asleep. He simply stopped sleeping and asked someone to bring Ji Song over.
When Ji Song came in, he was applying a hot towel to his face, and he heard that guy chattering incessantly: "You know who my uncle is, right? Let me go back quickly or I won't be able to eat, oh..." Ji Song's
The sound stopped suddenly, and Xu Gong, who was behind him, strangled his neck with a whip. It was not the kind of strangulation that prevented him from moving, but the kind that wanted to strangle him to death.
Ji Song's martial arts skills were mediocre, not even as good as Wang Xian's. He lost the ability to resist after being restrained by Xu Gong. He was so frightened that he wet his pants again...
Seeing that he had only one breath left, Xu Gong let go of the riding crop, and Ji Song fell to the ground like a puddle of snot.
Wang Xian then took off the towel on his face, looked at Ji Song, and said kindly: "What did Ji Qianhu say just now? I didn't hear clearly."
"Ho, ho..." Ji Song gasped like a bellows, not daring to say another word.
"Speak, are you mute?" Xu Gong kicked Ji Song hard on the butt. The pain made him tremble all over, and he said with snot and tears: "Spare my life..."
"This attitude is pretty much the same." Wang Xian sat down with a smile and said to Xu Gong: "Hurry up and help Mr. Qianhu up." He frowned and said: "Didn't I ask you to change his pants? Why does it still smell like this?
So coquettish
"I've already changed it for him," Xu Gong chuckled, "It's this worthless guy who peed again just now.
"Then let's put on the pants." Wang Xiandao.
After listening to the conversation between the two, Ji Song wished he could find a crack in the ground and crawl in, never to see anyone again.
