On a spring night, the chill was deep in his bones. Liu Jing, who was staying in a hotel, was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep, because he had already seen the Jinyi guard in the prison, but the Jinyi guard refused to listen to his explanation and insisted that he
It's a private party that has an affair with Shuntian Mansion.
He was a loyal minister's adopted son, but was regarded as a traitor. His heart was extremely cold, and when he thought of the extreme methods used by the court to deal with traitors, he trembled all over and became restless. The midnight bell rang, and the distant
But the sound of the bell hit his heart like a hammer. He sat up directly from the bed and walked back and forth in the room to think about countermeasures.
At this moment, there was a loud sound of gongs on the street outside, and he was even more shocked. He opened the window and looked outside, and saw a group of people hurried past with torches, and shouted something about how he was doing it.
The slogans were incomprehensible, and the people in Beiping City immediately acted as if they were facing a formidable enemy, and immediately went back to their homes and closed the doors and windows.
Liu Jing left her room and asked the waiter at the inn. She found out that it was because of a thief at night, and the patrolmen and defenders of Beiping City were rounding up the traitors. The waiter kindly told him: "I will hear the alarm later."
, just stay in the room and don’t cause trouble to the officers and soldiers. Anyway, this kind of thing happens a lot, and you’ll get used to it in the future.”
Liu Jing didn't want to get used to it. The reason why he stayed in Peking for so long was because he wanted to find out the details of Shuntian Mansion. Now that he didn't get much details, he might have to involve his own wealth and innocence. From this, it can be seen that this undercover agent is really not good at all.
Good job.
Liu Jing was full of melancholy and was about to go back to the room when she heard a knock on the door from outside the inn. The waiter seemed to be very used to it and immediately opened the door and opened the door to several people in basket-colored uniforms.
The policeman came in.
Liu Jing was extremely contemptuous of the issue of "Hufu" worn by officials and people in Shuntian Prefecture. In his view, the so-called China is China because of its etiquette and the beauty of its cultural relics. Zhisunfu was originally the costume of the imperial guards of the Yuan Dynasty.
It must not be worn on the body. The visitors were obviously not here to engage in a debate between Hua and Yi. When they saw Liu Jing, they told him bluntly: "Mr. Wan invites you."
"It's already late at night. I'm a little unwell and can't go out. We'll talk about it tomorrow." Liu Jing didn't dare to see Wan Lei again. After all, he had already been wronged that time during the day. If he went to see him at this time,
Isn’t this just a case of injustice?
The patrolman seemed to have guessed that Liu Jing would decline, so he said: "It's an emergency. The spy ran away."
"The spy ran away? Who is the spy?" Liu Jing was stunned and asked.
"The spy captured during the day was rescued by his accomplices who were ambushing in Beiping City and broke into the prison at night. When Mr. Wan heard about this, he immediately sent a messenger down to inform Mr. Liu and asked Mr. Liu to go over immediately to discuss countermeasures."
When Liu Jing heard this, he was even more dumbfounded. He had never been able to explain it clearly to the Jin Yiwei, and now that he had run away, it was even more difficult to explain. Moreover, once the Jin Yiwei returned to the Ming Dynasty, he would definitely add fuel to the fire to explain these things.
If Zi reports false things to the court, not only himself, but also the Liu family will suffer misfortune on unfounded charges.
Zhu Ming had always been extremely cruel when dealing with rebels. It was commonplace to confiscate his family, exterminate his family, and execute him at Lingchi. The more Liu Jing thought about it, the more frightened he became. He couldn't care about anything and immediately followed the patrol to the prison.
Outside the prison, dozens of torches lit up the surroundings. Patrol officers in civilian clothes and soldiers in military uniforms surrounded the prison for three floors. There were more than a dozen jailers on the ground. Their lives and deaths were unknown. It looked like something big had happened.
. And Wan Lei came out of the dungeon with a frown on his face, followed by the important officials of Shuntian Mansion.
"Mr. Liu, you are finally here." As soon as Wan Lei saw Liu Jing, he said apologetically: "We neglected to take precautions and allowed the traitor to rob the prison and take away the spy. We are really sorry.
.We have sent a large team of people to chase him, hoping to bring him back."
"Ah!" After hearing Wan Lei's words, Liu Jing couldn't help but whisper, her face became even paler, and she didn't know what to say for a moment.
And Liu Jing is a sensible person, and he also knows that this matter cannot be entirely blamed on Shuntian Mansion. It was because he was too curious that he came to Peking City. The origin of all the misunderstandings was mainly because Jin Yiwei was too suspicious and he met with them.
This scene was very unfortunate to be seen by their eyeliners. This can only be said to be unlucky enough to even drink cold water between the teeth.
Of course, what he didn't know was that these things happened one after another, one after another, and there was really an ulterior side behind them, but these were things that he would never know in his life, nor could he guess.
Seeing Liu Jing's dejected look, Tie Xuan reminded him in a low voice: "The Jin Yiwei dared to rob the prison, and there must be many people ambushing them in Beiping City. Even if they are chased back, they will not be able to prevent the news from spreading southward and returning to the imperial court."
Mr. Liu needs to make plans in advance as to how to deal with the matter."
"Ah." Hearing Tie Xuan's reminder, Liu Jing became even more anxious. She cupped her hands in a farewell gesture and said, "I am involved in trouble and it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time. I will take my leave now."
"Mr. Liu, where are you going?" Tie Xuan grabbed the other person.
"I will return south now and tie myself to the imperial court to express my will." Liu Jing shook off Tie Xuan's hand and strode away. However, Tie Xuan was still a little unwilling and persuaded loudly: "The imperial court does not distinguish between right and wrong, loyalty and treachery.
I'm afraid that if you go here, your husband will be like a moth thrown into the fire and never come back."
But Liu Jing still didn't listen and left on his own. Tie Xuan hurriedly said to Wan Lei: "My virtuous nephew, Mr. Liu is a great sage. We can't just watch him behind bars, why not..."
Wan Lei waved his hand, interrupted Tie Xuan's words, and said calmly: "It's going to rain, and my mother wants to get married. If you can't stop it, just let him go."
"But..." Tie Xuan still wanted to say, but he heard Wan Lei wave to Zhao Xueer and said: "Send a few elite guards to follow secretly along the road."
"Why are you just following him secretly? Wouldn't it be easier to trap him in Beiping City?" Zhao Xueer asked with some confusion.
"He is loyal to the court, and we cannot take away his ambition by force. However, he was misunderstood by the Jin Yiwei, and we have some responsibility, so we followed him secretly. If his life is in danger, we will try to rescue him."
"It's not bad that my nephew is doing this, but..." Tie Xuan frowned. On the one hand, he was worried about the safety of Liu Jing, and on the other hand, he was worried about the safety of the Jingzhong Guards. After all, there were only a few Jingzhong Guards sent out, and they
Whether Liu Jing can be kept safe and whether he can escape from the Ming Dynasty are all worrying questions.
"For the sake of this stubborn little old man, you ask our loyal guards to take such a big risk. Brother, you are too kind and righteous to outsiders!" Zhao Xueer complained, turned around and went to deliver the order.
