Chapter 59 Assassination

late at night

Zhao Chengchu came to the gate of Mao's Mansion and said to the guard: "I want to see Mr. Mao!"

The guard hesitated, so Zhao Chengchu handed him a letter in his hand and said: "Give this to Mr. Mao, and he will definitely agree to see me."

Seeing this, the guard winked at his colleague on the side, telling him to keep an eye on this person, so that if he caused any trouble, he would be able to find the owner of the account.

He turned around and walked towards Mao's Mansion.

When the sleeping Mao Wenlong was woken up, his face was full of displeasure. When he heard that it was an important matter, he got up, opened the door, and took the letter from the soldier's hand.

The guard looked at Mao Wenlong's face and secretly prayed that he hadn't been tricked by that boy.

Mao Wenlong looked at the letter and immediately said: "Take him to the hall and wait!"

The pawn then breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Yes!"

After waiting for a while, Zhao Chengchu saw the guard returning and immediately asked: "How?"

The pawn said with a flattering smile on his face: "Sir, sir, I'm here to invite you."

"Thank you!"

Zhao Chengchu followed the guard to the hall and looked at Mao Wenlong who was already waiting here.

"Sir, please bring me here!"

"Go down!" Mao Wenlong waved his hand to let the guard leave.

"Master Mao!"

Zhao Chengchu bowed his hands and saluted, and Mao Wenlong said: "It's no different to say more. Are you really saying that you are the envoy of the Mongols?"

He immediately showed the gold seal of Prince Ezhe. Mao Wenlong looked up and down and said: "In that case, why did you find me? Don't forget that Governor Yuan of Liaodong is in the heart of the emperor. Wouldn't it be better to do business with him?

?”

"Master Mao's statement is different. How do you know whether we have done business with Master Yuan?"

As soon as Zhao Chengchu said this, Mao Wenlong became suspicious and said: "Damn, this Yuan Chonghuan dared to love me because I robbed his business, so he targeted me like this. If I find an opportunity, I will definitely kill him!"

Zhao Chengchu said: "I wonder how many do you need?"

Mao Wenlong sneered and said: "Then it depends on how many you have!"

Zhao Chengchu handed a pamphlet to Mao Wenlong. Looking at the list of supplies on it, Mao Wenlong said in disbelief: "I'm afraid you Yuan people can't get these things, right?"

"I don't need to worry about it, Lord Mao," Zhao Chengchu said.

"Then make a price!"

Zhao Chengchu shook his head and said: "Master Mao, I am not here to discuss business with you. I am just here to inform you that someone else is here to discuss the business with Master Mao in detail."

Mao Wenlong said with a little doubt: "In that case, Brother Zhao doesn't have to come in such a hurry!"

Zhao Chengchu handed a secret letter to Mao Wenlong and said: "For the sake of our friendship, I will give you some information for free."

Mao Wenlong opened his eyes and immediately widened his eyes when he saw the content on the letter and asked in a deep voice: "Is this true?"

"Master Mao, it's up to you to decide whether you believe it or not." Zhao Chengchu was about to say goodbye and leave.

"Wait a minute!"

Mao Wenlong thought for a while and said: "If Mr. Zhao has something to do in the future, just go to the teahouse in the city and ask someone to send me a message!"

Zhao Chengchu took the jade pendant that Mao Wenlong threw to him.

"Show this and they'll know."

"Thank you, Master Mao!"

Mao Wenlong put the note in his hand close to his body. It contained the details of the transaction between Yuan Chonghuan and the Jurchens. Therefore, he changed the location to avoid leaving any clues. Zhao Chengchu clearly accepted Mao Wenlong's jade pendant.

Zhao Chengchu walked out of Mao's Mansion and walked into the darkness, gradually disappearing into the darkness, and two figures appeared to guard him.

Suddenly, a figure rushed in front of him. Zhao Chengchu was vaguely aware of the danger and dodged to avoid it. The sharp blade cut through the air. The sound that came out alerted the figure guarding him, and he immediately stood in front of Zhao Chengchu.

Seeing that they were outnumbered, the figure in the darkness immediately retreated.

The two were about to catch up, but Zhao Chengchu stopped him and said: "Forget it!"

"Sir, this!"

Zhao Chengchu saw the blood stains scattered on the ground through the moonlight, and a sound broke through the air.

"Be careful!" Zhao Chengchu reminded.

But in the end, it was too late. The guard standing in front of him was pierced through the heart by an arrow. With a muffled sound, the figure fell to the ground.

Zhao Chengchu immediately ran towards Mao's Mansion with another person, but unexpectedly, two men in black quietly appeared behind him, holding steel knives and attacking them.

Zhao Chengchu's face turned cold, knowing that he had been set up this time. Zhao Chengchu thought for a moment and took out a pocket crossbow. With remote suppression, the two of them were out of danger for the time being, but a light sound came from the alleyway that had been silent for a moment.

footsteps.

"Sir, I'll lure them away!"

Before Zhao Chengchu could open his mouth, the guard beside him did not give him any time to hesitate and immediately stepped out and rushed toward the shadow. When he heard the footsteps and was attracted by the guards, Zhao Chengchu got up and galloped towards the entrance of the alley.

When everyone in the alley saw that the fallen figure was not Zhao Chengchu, the leader secretly sighed: "You have been fooled, retreat!"

Zhao Chengchu walked towards Mao's Mansion, but suddenly turned around and walked in the other direction. Within a moment of burning incense, Zhao Chengchu led dozens of people to the place where they were ambushed and saw that there were no other traces except the remaining blood stains.

"Go back!"

Zhao Chengchu clenched the jade pendant in his hand and said in a deep voice: "Strict investigation!"

"yes!"

East Tumut

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little worried when he saw Yan Ning leaving. After all, most of the people she brought were Yuan army cavalry. When he suddenly received the news that Zhao Chengchu had been assassinated, he immediately said: "Let Yan Ning come back!"

Yan Ning returned to the camp and asked, "Why do you want me to come back? You can't bear to leave me?"

Zhu Yuanzhang said seriously: "Let's keep them cold for a while."

Yan Ning was a little puzzled and still followed Zhu Yuanzhang's words. Zhao Chengchu couldn't help but feel a little scared when he heard that his subordinates had not found any clues. After thinking about it over and over, he came to the largest restaurant in the city.

There were mostly Koreans inside, and Mingren was looking at the several scantily clad women on the high platform with interest, with a greedy look in his eyes. The smell of alcohol and rouge mixed in the air, making Zhao Chengchu feel a little agitated.

Dizziness.

At this time, the waiter came up to us and said, "This guest officer, who are you?"

Zhao Chengchu stretched out a finger.

"A distinguished guest!"

Zhao Chengchu found a seat near the window and looked at the women who were posing below. The eyes of others looking at him were full of confusion. Only the women on the stage knew that they were being scrutinized all the time.

The skirt worn by the leading woman slipped slightly, leaving only her underwear. The desire in everyone's eyes became even more intense. The woman took this opportunity to observe but still did not notice the scrutinizing gaze.

Suddenly, the woman noticed a young man looking at her with interest, noticed her gaze, picked up the wine glass and gave her a toast from a distance.

The woman smiled, but she was sweating in her heart and secretly said: "This is the person!"

The singing and dancing gradually stopped, and the woman bowed slightly and left the high platform.
