Could it be that he is waiting for an important person to give orders?
Just when Wu Zhi and Shi Qian were holding daggers tightly in their hands, they were thinking about whether they should rush all the way or find a way to escape.
Then from behind the group of guards, another group of people came over.
This team of men and horses were dressed very similarly to those of the palace guards, except that they all held short weapons.
Among this group of people, Wu Zhi also knew the one walking at the front.
It was Wu Zhi's old enemy, the Privy Councilor in the imperial court, Tong Guan.
Mr. Tong is full of joy today.
For no other reason than to capture the person in the official's heart who most wanted to be cut into pieces.
Although the attires of the three people standing opposite Tong Guan were very strange at this moment, it didn't matter to him.
Because in his opinion, as long as someone sneaks into the cold palace to save people, he must be the person that the officials want to arrest today.
At this time, Tong Guan put one hand behind his back.
The expression on his face was even more contented.
"Hmph, you three rebels and rebels have now fallen into my hands. I advise you three to plead guilty and commit suicide as soon as possible. Otherwise, when the sword and ax come upon you, you three may even cry.
That's too late!"
"Behind you now is the cold palace, a dead end!"
"And in front of me are the 800 Imperial Guards who I have already ambushed."
"You three, even if you have great abilities, there is absolutely no way you can escape. Just give up."
The situation before them was something Wu Zhi and Shi Qian never expected.
The two of them thought that their plan was quite thorough, and when they sneaked into the palace, they behaved extremely carefully, and during the whole process, they did not meet anyone in the palace.
But why did the news about their trip leak out?
Or could it be that Tong Guan had predicted before that that Wu Zhi and the others would come to save people tonight?
So, all this was prepared early in the morning?
Of course, none of this matters now.
What method and form to use to escape from the palace is what the two of them should think about now.
At this moment, if Wu Zhi and Shi Qian were to fight for their lives with the eight hundred people standing in front.
Then their winning rate, not to mention infinitely approaching zero, is probably close to certain death.
After all, although the two of them have great skills, they are not the kind of players with superior strength.
At this moment, even if Wu Zhi's younger brother Wu Song comes over, plus Lu Zhishen, it will definitely not be an easy task to break out from the crowd of hundreds of people.
What's more, the two of them?
Even if the two of them had made very complete preparations before this, when faced with this situation, the success rate of rushing out together was quite low.
Thinking of this, Wu Zhi sighed helplessly.
Then, he took two steps forward, stretched out his left hand, pointed at Tong Guan's head, and said jokingly:
"Master Tong, right? If you want the three of us to surrender to you, it's not impossible, but I have a condition."
"If you can meet my condition, then the three of us will surrender and never resist."
As soon as Wu Zhi finished speaking, Tong Guan, who was standing opposite, had not yet reacted, but Shi Qian, who was beside him, became anxious first.
At this moment, he took a step to the left and came to Wu Zhi's side.
Then, he whispered:
"Brother, what's the use of negotiating terms with that sinister person when we've already reached such a situation?"
"When the time comes, even if that sinister man agrees to your terms, he will most likely regret it after he catches the three of us."
But Wu Zhi, after hearing what Shi Qian said, waved his hand slightly at him, indicating that he should stop talking.
At that time, after seeing Wu Zhi's gesture, his mind suddenly became a mess.
Because he really couldn't guess what his eldest brother's purpose was for doing this.
After hearing what Wu Zhi said, Tong Guan hesitated for a while and then agreed.
Although he was confident of victory at this moment, wouldn't it be better if he could capture alive the people whom the officials hated today without wasting any of his soldiers?
As for whether to agree to that condition, it won't be too late to weigh it after the three of them are captured.
At that time, even if they don't agree, even if they regret it, the other three people have already fallen into his hands, and there is no harm to him.
Thinking of this, Tong Guan opened his mouth and said:
"Tell me about those grass bandits and thieves, what conditions do you want me to agree to?"
"If it has something to do with me, then it doesn't matter if I agree to you."
"But if you want me to release the three of you, it seems to be a bit difficult."
As soon as Tong Guan finished speaking, Wu Zhi took advantage of the situation and continued:
"I know better than you how big the basket I am trying to poke is."
"So I will never ask you to release the three of us."
"Because I know that even if I dare to say it, you will definitely not dare to do it."
"So that kind of request makes no sense at all now."
Tong Guanyun smiled lightly:
"Okay then, just mention it and I'll listen."
Wu Zhi first pretended to be where he was, pacing a few steps repeatedly, then suddenly raised his head, stretched out his left hand again, and pointed at Tong Guan's head.
Immediately afterwards, his fingertips gradually moved down and came under Tong Guan's abdomen.
"Master Tong, my request is actually very simple, that is..."
"As long as you can reshape yourself into a man, the three of us will surrender without any resistance."
"So, my request is not too much, right?"
After hearing these words, the smile on Tong Guan's face suddenly solidified.
Because he always felt that these words were very familiar.
But all of a sudden, I couldn't remember where I heard it.
When the hundreds of sword-wielding guards guarding him suddenly heard these words, they couldn't help but laugh to themselves.
Of course, their smiles were also extremely subtle.
Some twisted their necks, while others covered their mouths with their hands.
There were hundreds of people, but no one dared to laugh out loud.
After all, Tong Guan's official authority is no joke.
If anyone dared to laugh loudly at this time, Tong Guan would dare to kill him immediately.
After a long time.
Only then did Tong Guan react, and couldn't help but feel furious.
Your grandma’s!
I finally remembered where I had heard this before.
A long time ago, when we were fighting with the gangsters in Qingfeng Village, the leader of that gang teased me with this sentence.
Damn it, this time, this guy actually used these words to insult me again!
