"Hmm~ It's the first time I've seen that carriage..."
Hearing this, Princess Honglian pouted and thought for a moment, then turned to the guards beside her and asked: "Do any of you know the origin of that carriage?"
When the leader of the guards heard about Princess Honglian, he hurriedly handed over his hands and replied: "To return to the princess, the logo on the four-wheel carriage should be the logo of 'Qingyun Jewelry Pavilion'. Presumably the carriage should be 'Qingyun Jewelry Pavilion'."
carriage."
"Qingyun Jewelry Pavilion?"
"Brother, Qingyun Jewelry Pavilion is a jewelry store that just opened in Xinzheng City not long ago. Their jewelry is very beautiful. I also bought several pieces of jewelry from their store!"
After Princess Honglian finished speaking, she deliberately turned around in front of Han Fei and showed off the new jewelry she was wearing.
"Honglian, this 'Qingyun Jewelry Pavilion' sounds quite interesting. Can you tell me more about it?"
"Okay! Let's talk as we walk..."
…
The reason why Zhuge Qingyun arrived in Xinzheng City with Han Fei was not because of a pure coincidence, but because he had already had someone investigate Han Fei's whereabouts, so he arrived in Xinzheng City on the same day as him.
Han Fei's return heralds the official start of the plot of "Nine Songs of Heaven", and the "Ghost Soldier Robbery Case" has already caused a stir in Xinzheng City a few days ago.
A few days ago, Lord Longquan and Lord Anping were ordered by the King of Han to escort the soldiers to the border. However, when passing through the Broken Soul Valley on the outskirts of Xinzheng City, they encountered the incident of "ghost soldiers taking advantage of the road".
And the one hundred thousand taels of gold they were responsible for escorting were melted by the rain and disappeared in full view of everyone.
When South Korea defeated Zheng Guo, Han Aihou promised that those who surrendered would be spared death. However, in the end, he deceived Zheng Guo's 5,000 surrendered soldiers into the suburbs and killed them all, and the place where they were killed was the Valley of Broken Souls.
With the help of thoughtful people, the people in Xinzheng City now believe that the "Ghost Soldiers Robbery Case" is the ghosts of Zheng's soldiers who came to collect debts.
In addition, the five chief prosecutors responsible for reviewing the case were killed in mysterious circumstances, and the matter made people panic even more.
In order to find out the matter as soon as possible, the King of Han handed over the matter to the Prime Minister Zhang Kaidi, who, on the advice of his grandson Zhang Liang, transferred the case to Han Fei.
…
"Master, as expected, this 'Ghost Soldiers' Pay Robbery Case' is indeed closely related to Ji Wuye. Following your instructions, we have been secretly paying attention to the movements of the general's guards and have basically determined the military pay.
The hiding place.”
In the inner courtyard of the Huanyinfang branch in Xinzheng City, He Yuan, the helmsman in charge of the Xinzheng branch, was reporting to Zhuge Qingyun the details of the 'Ghost Soldier Robbery Case'.
You must know that robbing military pay is a serious crime of confiscating a family and exterminating a clan. Even if Ji Wuye is extremely powerful in South Korea, he cannot bear such a big crime.
Therefore, in order to prevent the news from leaking out, Ji Wuye will definitely use his personal guards to transport military pay. One hundred thousand taels of gold is not a small amount, and transporting such a large amount of military pay will definitely cause quite a stir.
After He Yuan received the secret message from Zhuge Qingyun, she had been secretly monitoring the whereabouts of the general's guards. The day before the 'ghost soldier robbery case' occurred, the general's guards had escorted
A batch of training equipment left the city.
In order to prevent others from alerting others, the people sent by He Yuan did not follow too closely, but they also roughly determined the destination of the personal guards of the General's Mansion.
If there is no mistake, military pay worth one hundred thousand taels of gold should be hidden in that batch of training equipment.
"Ding! The key information about the mission trigger is found, and the script mission is officially launched!"
[Script mission one (the mantis stalks the cicada, the oriole follows): snatch the 100,000 taels of gold military pay hidden by Ji Wuye. The mission is limited to three days.
Mission Difficulty:★★★
Mission reward: 2000 general points, one ghost soldier token, and three skill points.
Mission failure: 6,000 general points will be deducted
Introduction: Ghost soldiers rob pay? Isn’t this just asking for money!]
Just after He Yuan reported the details of the 'Ghost Soldier Robbery Case' to Zhuge Qingyun, a new script task panel suddenly popped up in front of him.
As Zhuge Qingyun's actor assistant, the empress could also see the contents of Zhuge Qingyun's script task panel, and couldn't help but say: "Husband, do you want my help?"
Upon hearing this, Zhuge Qingyun reached out and touched the empress's hair and said: "This matter is not suitable for many people. Just stay at home and take charge."
Although Ji Wuye will definitely arrange some personal guards to guard the place where the military pay is hidden, the number will definitely not be too many, otherwise it will increase the risk of exposing the matter.
With Zhuge Qingyun's strength, he could kill all the guards silently by himself, and then take away a hundred thousand taels of military pay without anyone noticing. There was no need for the empress to take action. If there were more people, it would be easier to leave traces.
.
"Okay! Then I wish my husband all the best."
After hearing Zhuge Qingyun's words, the empress did not continue to force it. Anyway, this kind of three-star script task would not be too difficult.
"..."
He Yuan, who was standing aside, heard the conversation between Zhuge Qingyun and the Empress, and her eyes were full of doubts. She could not see the script task in front of Zhuge Qingyun, so she naturally felt that their conversation was a bit strange.
However, as a subordinate, He Yuan naturally did not dare to question what Zhuge Qingyun and the Empress said. She could only suppress her curiosity and make an expression as if she had not heard anything.
…
Because the "Ghost Soldier Robbery Case" caused panic among people, when night fell, the number of pedestrians on the streets of Xinzheng City obviously decreased a lot.
Except for places like Huanyinfang and Zilanxuan where people come and go, there are almost no traces of pedestrians on other streets, only soldiers on patrol walking by from time to time.
At a height of 100 meters in Xinzheng City, Zhuge Qingyun rode a wind elemental falcon and took advantage of the night to rush towards the place where Ji Wuye hid his military pay.
Although the location where the military pay was hidden provided by He Yuan was only a rough range, in the dark night, the personal guards of the General's Mansion who were responsible for guarding the military pay would definitely light some torches for illumination, and these torches would reveal their positions.
"It should be right there!"
Zhuge Qingyun rode the wind elemental falcon and flew over the area where the military pay was hidden. He soon discovered traces of fire in a valley below.
"Whoosh!"
Following Zhuge Qingyun's thought, the wind elemental falcon immediately landed towards the valley below, avoiding the patrolling guards, and landed in a dark corner where there was no one.
