Both the Shence Army and the people from the Governor's Mansion showed slight changes in their expressions.
But the people from Ziyi Prison suddenly walked out of the Governor's Mansion, which really surprised Qiao Ruixin, and Fan Yang was also a little confused, wondering when Chen Xi entered the Governor's Mansion.
There are guards at the front and back gates of the Governor's Mansion, and there are patrols all around, but Chen Xi can appear quietly in the Governor's Mansion. It seems that the rumors are true. The eunuchs in the Purple Clothes Prison are just a group of ghosts in the dark. You never know them.
When will it appear where?
Fan Yang was not only surprised that Chen Xi appeared in the Governor's Mansion, but was also horrified by Chen Xi's stance.
Chen Xi actually opened his mouth and said that there was indeed an assassin in the Governor's Mansion. He was obviously a member of the Shence Army. If the Ziyi Prison also joined forces with An Xinghou, the situation would become extremely serious.
Fan Yang's heart sank.
Qiao Ruixin was also a little confused at the moment, and she couldn't figure out why the people from the Purple Clothes Prison came out to help.
Is this a secret arrangement by An Xinghou?
Although Qiao Ruixin was also a eunuch, the Shence Army and the Ziyi Prison were two completely unrelated systems, and there was no contact between the two parties. Qiao Ruixin, the Guide Zhonglang General, knew very little about the Ziyi Prison, but he also knew that Chen Xi was
The young eunuch of the Ziyi Prison knows nothing about Chen Xi other than that.
However, Chen Xi also said that there were assassins in the governor's office, which was certainly not a bad thing. Qiao Ruixin cupped her hands and said, "Young Master Chen!"
"General Qiao, how are you doing now?" Chen Xi smiled slightly, put one hand behind his back, walked to Fan Yang and stopped.
"There is no danger." Qiao Ruixin said immediately: "Master Young Supervisor, did you just say that the assassin was in the governor's mansion?"
Chen Xi did not answer but asked: "General Qiao, how many assassins are there?"
"There is only one person." Qiao Ruixin replied: "But the assassin's martial arts are very good. Obviously someone wants to prevent the Marquis from quelling the chaos, so he sent the assassin to assassinate him." At this point, you glanced at Fan Yang.
Although Fan Yang was surprised in his heart, his face remained extremely calm.
"What does an assassin look like?" Chen Xi continued to ask, "But is he dressed in black and masked?"
When assassinating at night, black tights not only make it difficult to see clearly, but also make it easier to move. Most assassins will dress like this.
Seeing Chen Xi looking at her with a smile, Qiao Ruixin didn't know what Chen Xi was planning. Thinking that Chen Xi was probably cooperating with the Shence Army, she nodded and said, "Yes, it's the black masked attire."
Chen Xi raised a hand and gestured: "About this tall?"
"It should be...!" Qiao Ruixin could only follow Chen Xi's words.
"Knife or sword?"
"Use...use a knife!"
"What knife?"
"A regular machete!"
Chen Xi nodded slightly and said with a smile: "That's right." He said in a deep voice: "Come here, bring it out!"
As soon as he finished speaking, two people walked out from the darkness. They were both wearing short and tight shirts. They carried one person forward and put the person on the ground. Everyone looked over, only to find that the person on the ground was wearing black clothes and covering his face.
, but the back has been cut off, leaving it just a corpse.
One person threw a machete on the body.
"General Qiao, this is the assassin you are looking for." Chen Xi said slowly: "There are rebels in Hangzhou City, and the Purple Clothes Supervisor is secretly investigating. When we were performing official duties tonight, we happened to see this assassin, so we followed him all the way.
I saw him climbing over the wall and entering the Governor's Mansion. You are right. This assassin's martial arts is indeed amazing, but the guards of the Governor's Mansion did not notice him sneaking into the Yamen. The three of us wanted to capture him alive, but the assassin was really tough.
, knowing that he was defeated, he cut his own throat directly." Pointing to the assassin's corpse, he said: "You can carry the corpse back to the Marquis, and it will be considered a business deal."
Fan Yang was startled at first, then suddenly understood, a look of joy flashed in his eyes.
Qiao Ruixin also realized at this time that she felt that she had been tricked by Chen Xi.
"Why, do you have any questions, General Qiao?" Chen Xi's eyes became sharp. After all, he was a young prisoner in purple clothes. Once his face turned cold, a killing intent filled the air: "This assassin fits what you said.
The conditions, and if there are other assassins in the Governor's Mansion, I believe they will not be able to avoid the eyes of our Ziyi Prison. There is only this one assassin in the entire Governor's Mansion, and you can take him away."
"Chen Shaojian, I'm just curious, why did the assassin escape into the governor's mansion after he missed the target?" Qiao Ruixin sighed: "Hangzhou is such a big city, why is it difficult to hide somewhere, so why hide here?"
Chen Xi said lightly: "This problem is easy to explain. Although there are many places to hide in the city, the assassin thought that only the governor's office was the yamen that Shence's army did not dare to break into without permission. He thought that Governor Fan was an important official of the imperial court, and Shence
Jun was wary and didn't dare to offend. It was safer to hide here than anywhere else, but he made a wrong calculation. Unexpectedly, Shence Army didn't even pay attention to the governor's office and entered as soon as he was told."
Qiao Ruixin suddenly felt extremely embarrassed.
"Of course, there is another possibility." Chen Xi glanced at Fan Yang: "The assassin failed to assassinate the Marquis, and he was unwilling to accept it. He wanted to sneak into the Governor's Mansion to assassinate Governor Fan. If he could succeed, it would be considered revenge on the imperial court."
Fan Yang immediately said: "Thanks to Mr. Chen for taking action, otherwise I am afraid that someone will be killed tonight."
"Isn't there another possibility?" Qiao Ruixin said coldly: "The mastermind behind the assassination is in the Governor's Mansion?"
As soon as these words came out, Fan Yang's face immediately darkened.
"Where is the evidence?" Chen Xi stretched out his hand.
Qiao Ruixin was startled and said with a little embarrassment: "I'm just guessing."
"General Qiao, you are a general of the Shence Army. I really don't know since when did a general of the Shence Army start talking nonsense without evidence." Chen Xi said coldly: "You said that the mastermind behind the scenes is in the Governor's Mansion.
If there is conclusive evidence, you can bring it out. If not, it is better not to say this in the future. If it spreads and people think that the Shence Army is slandering others, then General Qiao will discredit the Shence Army."
Qiao Ruixin was furious, but she didn't know how to refute.
"General Qiao should carry the body back as soon as possible." Chen Xi waved his hand: "If someone sees a large number of Shence troops surrounding the gate of the Governor's Mansion, I don't know what they will think. Of course, what happened today will be discussed by the Purple-cloth Supervisor.
Sage, let me tell you something that shouldn’t be said. The Shence Army is getting more and more arrogant now. Even the governor’s office is trying to break in. I believe that the Sage will rectify the Shence Army after he knows about this.”
Qiao Ruixin clenched her fists, but had no choice but to say in a deep voice: "Bring the body back yet." He turned around and left. Several officers and soldiers from Shence came up and carried the body out. There was a burst of people outside the Yamen shouting, but only for a moment.
The time has passed cleanly.
Fan Yang and Zhao Biejia breathed a sigh of relief.
"Young Master Chen, if you hadn't helped me today, the consequences would have been disastrous." Fan Yang said gratefully, "Please come into the room to talk."
Chen Xi didn't say much, and followed Fan Yang to the living room with the two people.
"You're welcome, Lord Governor." After sitting down, Chen Xi said with a smile: "It was Qin Shaoqing who thought that Anxinghou might cause trouble for Lord, so he asked me to enter the city first and act on camera, so as to ensure the safety of Lord Governor no matter what.
.”
Fan Yang sighed: "Qin Shaoqing is really good at predicting things." Then he frowned and said: "Young prisoner, that assassin...?"
"It's a false story. They just carried back the body of an assassin that didn't exist at all." Chen Xi smiled and said: "There are spies in the Purple-clothes Prison at Anxinghou. They put on a show themselves and had people pretend to be assassins to carry out the assassination.
I even lost one of my close guards. After the spies reported this, I guessed that they would probably come here, so I made arrangements in advance and entered the house without permission. Please don't take offense, sir."
Naturally, the Ziyi Prison has many spies in Hangzhou. Chen Xi is the young prisoner of the Ziyi Prison. After entering the city, he will naturally contact these spies. It is not surprising that there are spies from the Ziyi Prison near Anxinghou.
Since Anxing Hou was going to stage an assassination scene, they naturally made the noise as loud as possible. It was natural for spies to find out about this matter.
Fan Yang thought to himself that the people in the Purple Clothes Supervisor were really good, but he couldn't ask more questions about who the corpse was. After all, the Ziyi Supervisor always used unscrupulous means to kill anyone who pretended to be an assassin, and no one would be able to hold him accountable.
"I wonder when Qin Shaoqing will enter the city?" Zhao Biejia on the side couldn't help but ask.
Chen Xi smiled faintly and asked Fan Yang: "Master Governor, are the city gate guards still yours?"
"Sha Changshi is responsible for the city defense, and the city gate guards are all his people." Fan Yang explained: "However, after Anxinghou entered the city, he transferred Sha Changshi to the Hangzhou Camp, and the military power of the city defense troops was taken over by Anxinghou.
Go. The Shence Army naturally disdains the task of guarding the gates, so they only arrange one or two people at each gate. The gate guards are still soldiers and horses from the Chang Shi Mansion."
Chen Xi nodded slightly and asked: "Can your lord still command the city gate guards now?"
"Yes." Fan Yang nodded and said, "As long as there is a sealed official letter from me, Nancheng School Captain Wang Gang will definitely comply with it."
Chen Xi smiled and said: "That's very good. Please ask the governor to write an official letter of permission immediately. I will have someone take the official letter of permission out of the city to see Lord Qin. With the official letter of permission, Lord Qin can enter the city tomorrow."
Fan Yang cheered up and said: "I will write immediately." He thought of something and said worriedly: "Young Supervisor, the Shence Army is stationed in the city. Mr. Qin is entering the city, but he is leading troops into the city? If he leads troops into the city, I am worried about Anxing Hou.
Will stop it."
"Actually, Mr. Qin also knew that An Xinghou would definitely stop him. If he entered the city without permission, he would even give Anxing Hou an excuse. Therefore, after Mr. Qin arrived outside the city, he did not enter the city immediately." Chen Xi said: "But what happened tonight?
, just gave Mr. Qin a reason to enter the city. The assassins assassinated An Xinghou and even sneaked into the governor's office with the intention of assassinating. The rebels were arrogant and domineering. In order to ensure the safety of the city, the governor begged Mr. Qin to bring troops into the city for reinforcements. Mr. Qin accepted the request of the governor.
, obey and enter the city." With a slight smile on his lips: "I wonder what the governor thinks of this reason?"
Fan Yang clapped his hands and said with a smile: "It's reasonable and reasonable. Yes, I am begging Mr. Qin to go to the city to quell the chaos. I am the governor of Hangzhou and I am asking for help from outside. I have such qualifications." He stood up and said: "Young prisoner, wait a moment, I am.
