Huang Wude was also very happy to see Zhao Yan. First, Zhao Yan never despised him because of his eunuch. Second, last time he went to Liao Kingdom with Zhao Yan, because Zhao Yan was wandering to the Jurchens, Zhao Shu wanted to punish Huang Wude, but later Zhao Yan came back and asked for love for him, which saved Huang Wude from punishment. All of these made him very grateful to Zhao Yan and was willing to get close to Zhao Yan. √∟

Zhao Yan saw Princess Dening off this morning, and then followed Wang Chao to Xiangji Temple. Until now, she didn't even drink saliva, and her throat was already dry and smoked. At this time, she saw a bowl of tea on Huang Wude's table. She picked it up and drank it up, then wiped her mouth and said, "Old Huang, I'm not polite to you. You should have received the news about the case of Xiangji Temple, right?"

When Huang Wude heard Zhao Yan mention Xiangji Temple, he couldn't help but frown slightly. Then he turned around and searched through the information on the table. Finally, he finally picked up a piece of information and handed it to Zhao Yan and said, "Prince, please see, this is what the Imperial City Department sent yesterday. It was about the disappearance of the monks in Xiangji Temple. But this happened too suddenly and we didn't find too many clues."

Zhao Yan took the information and looked at it, and found that the information was very detailed. He even recorded that on the night before, the residents around Xiangji Temple heard the bells coming from the temple, which shows that Xiangji Temple was still very normal at that time. However, the day before yesterday, the day before yesterday, Su Shi went to find Kong for the first time, the temple suddenly became silent. In this way, it can be judged that the tragedy in the temple should have happened three days ago to the morning before yesterday. However, this information did not indicate that the monk had died. It was just that more than 70 monks were missing and their lives and deaths were unknown.

After reading the information in his hand, Zhao Yan sighed and handed it to Huang Wudedao: "The monks in Xiangji Temple are not missing, but have been confirmed to be mostly dead. There is a secret passage under the Zen Zen Room, which leads directly to the underground waterway in Tokyo. The corpses of the monks were chopped and piled up there. It is impossible to tell how many people died, and they do not know the identities of all the dead!"

"What? Are all dead?" Huang Wude was shocked when he heard the news. Although the Imperial City Secretary was everywhere, the secret path of the Kong Zen Room was just discovered today. In addition, Huang Wude did not focus all his attention on this matter, so he still doesn't know.

"Not bad, and the technique is so cruel, and no useful clues were found on the scene. This made my dynasty think of a previous case." Zhao Yan sighed at this time. Although he did not go down to the secret path to witness the broken corpses with his own eyes, just thinking about it was enough to make people feel panicked.

"What the prince thought of was the original palace arson case!" Huang Wude also narrowed his eyes and said. When he heard the method of committing the crime in this case, he was the first to think of the tragedy in which dozens of eunuchs were burned to death.

"Yes, the same ruthless behavior, the same neatness and neatness, and the purpose of achieving my goal was to think of them. This made me think of them first. Last time you dealt with some spies from the Liao Kingdom. Although they were all small shrimps, they should have gained something, right?" Zhao Yan nodded and said. After the last fire, Huang Wude caught a few small shrimps to numb the other party. With Huang Wude's temper, he would definitely not kill those small shrimps easily, and he would definitely ask for some things.

However, what surprised Zhao Yan was that Huang Wude smiled bitterly and shook: "Prince, you made a wrong idea this time, and I don't have much information to provide you."

"No, your Imperial City Department is specifically responsible for intelligence matters. Do you know nothing about your colleagues?" Zhao Yan said incredible when he heard this.

"You are the prince. In fact, in addition to collecting intelligence, our Imperial City Department is also responsible for preventing spies from infiltration from the enemy. Therefore, we were very clear about the spies of the Liao Kingdom in the Song Dynasty. Even during Renzong, our Imperial City Department destroyed the intelligence network of the Liao Kingdom in the Song Dynasty. At that time, we were very popular. It was during that time that I was promoted to the leader of the Imperial City Department."

Speaking of destroying the Liao Kingdom Intelligence Network, Huang Wude's face also shone on his face. It seemed that it should be the most proud thing in his life. But then he looked dark and sighed and said, "But before we were happy for too long, the Liao Kingdom suddenly grasped a lot of information about our Song Dynasty. It seemed that the destroyed intelligence network was fake, but we can be sure that the destroyed intelligence network was definitely the main intelligence network of the Liao Kingdom. For this reason, the Liao Kingdom killed all the ministers in charge of intelligence, and it was absolutely impossible to fake it!"

"Huh? That's strange. Does the Liao Kingdom have an intelligence network that you don't know?" Zhao Yan asked in surprise when he heard this.

"The prince doesn't know that the operation of the intelligence network is not a matter of overnight. First of all, we must cultivate a group of loyal and perfect spies. Many of these spies have lived on the enemy's side since childhood. Therefore, it takes a lot of money to cultivate these people, but also a lot of time. The Liao Dynasty's intelligence network was formed after years of cultivation, and we absolutely have no energy to cultivate a second intelligence network." Huang Wude said at this time. As the intelligence leader, he knew better than anyone else about the difficulty of cultivating an intelligence network.

"If it weren't for two intelligence networks, where did the Liao Kingdom get the information?" Zhao Yan also had a confused expression at this time. There were no martial arts masters flying around in the Song Dynasty. Even if they were experts like Zhou Tong, they were only stronger, faster in response, higher in response, faster in jumping, and faster in running. It was absolutely impossible for them to fly to the roof on the roof and eavesdrop on other people's conversations like in martial arts novels. Therefore, underground workers like Huang Wude also obtained intelligence like spies and spies in later generations, like those of later generations.

"At that time, our Imperial City Department couldn't understand this, but later someone suddenly suggested that maybe there was a secret organization lurking in our Song Dynasty. This organization took advantage of the destruction of the Liao Kingdom Intelligence Network and replaced the original Liao Kingdom Intelligence Network. The information we obtained later also confirmed this conjecture. Moreover, the organization grew very fast with the support of the Liao Kingdom and acted extremely secretly. In addition, the other party had not attracted our attention before, and contact with the Liao Kingdom was only in the past few years, so our understanding of this organization was extremely limited." Huang Wude couldn't help but sigh again when he spoke at the end. Although there were many objective reasons that he did not know much about that organization, it also meant that he was under the disadvantage of that organization in this invisible confrontation.

"So that's it, but you have been fighting each other for a few years, and there will always be some gains, right?" Zhao Yan asked again.

Speaking of the organization's intelligence, Huang Wude was also excited and said: "There are indeed some gains. Now we have found out that this organization has been lurking in our Song Dynasty for a long time, and can even be traced back to the beginning of our Song Dynasty. When Taizu made great achievements in military affairs, he pacified separatist forces from all over the north and south, including the Southern Tang Dynasty, the Later Shu, Wu Yue, the Chu State, the Southern Han State, etc. These are just relatively large countries, and there are countless small forces. That organization should be the power left over from one of the countries and has been trying to restore the country. Unfortunately, our Song Dynasty is strong, which makes them hopeless to restore the country. So he turned to the Liao State and became a lackey of the Liao State in the Song Dynasty, and sold the information of our Song Dynasty to the Liao State several times."

"Is it still the remnant of the previous dynasty?" Zhao Yan was also a little overwhelmed when he heard this. Unexpectedly, the mysterious organization had such a big background. Then he asked again, "Old Huang, are you sure the other party is left by a country? So what about the other party's strength?"

"This organization was able to lurk in the Song Dynasty for many years and did not attract our attention at all, which is enough to show the strictness of this organization. In recent years, the Liao Kingdom has supported it, which has led to the strength of this organization growing rapidly. Now, the shadow of this organization can be seen almost everywhere in the Song Dynasty. Moreover, the organization has no name, and the internal personnel are divided into several levels. Except for the top-level people, the people below do not know the details of the organization at all, and we only caught some peripheral members, so we don't know much about this organization, and we can't determine which country the other party left behind." Huang Wude said helplessly at this time.

Zhao Yan was also a little disappointed when he heard this. He thought he could get some detailed information from Huang Wude, and maybe even infer the relationship between Kong and the spies in Liao Kingdom. However, now it seems that these news is not much useful.

"Old Huang, according to your opinion, was this case in Xiangji Temple done by that organization?" Zhao Yan quickly cheered up from his disappointment and asked again.

"It's definitely them!" Huang Wude said with great affirmation, "The methods of this group of people have always been so cruel and neat, and they regard human life as grass. However, these people have never taken action easily, and every time they take action, there are reasons for having to take action. For example, the last time the palace was burned, it was instructed by Zhang Renxian. Now that Liao is in chaos, it is impossible for them to kill a group of monks. So I think the matter of Xiangji Temple this time is probably the independent action of this organization." Huang Wude finally explained his analysis.

"Even if this is the independent action of this organization, why did they kill all the monks in Xiangji Temple? And why did a secret path appear in the Zen room of Lekong? What does Lekong have to do with this organization?" Zhao Yan finally muttered to himself. These questions kept circling in his mind, but could not find any answers for a while.
