One of the prisoners in the prison car that Zhao Huaizhong saw when he left Ye Yu's Mansion was Xu Su. The person who followed Zhao Huaizhong yesterday was the person he arranged.
Yesterday afternoon, Xu Su would never have thought that letting someone follow Zhao Huaizhong would bring disaster to himself.
One night, Xianyang City was in turmoil.
Under the terrifying pressure of Ye Yufu, all forces wanted to dig out the forces following Zhao Huaizhong as soon as possible in order to avoid getting into trouble.
When life and death are at stake, no one talks about martial ethics.
That night the imperial government deliberately released news that the two people who were following Zhao Huaizhong and captured were from Zhao.
As the leader of the Zhao people lurking in Xianyang, Xu Su immediately felt the deep malice from all forces.
Starting last night, he ordered the deployment in Xianyang to stop all activities and hide them properly.
He himself also played the trick of a cunning rabbit in three burrows, changing his hiding place overnight. Unfortunately, after one night, he was caught out by the all-pervasive Ye Yu Mansion.
In order to protect him, his men died one after another, or became prisoners.
Xu Su did not escape the search in the end. After being escorted to Ye Yu Mansion, he was sent directly to prison.
Until night fell, he was brought to Fan Qingzhou.
Fan Qingzhou was looking through bamboo slips behind a desk.
When Xu Su was escorted over, he didn't rush to ask questions and continued reading the bamboo scroll.
There seemed to be quite interesting content on it, and Fan Qingzhou was fascinated by it.
At this moment, Xu Su was no longer as impressive as when he was playing chess and drinking tea in his yard yesterday. His face was covered in blood, there was a penetrating wound on his waist and ribs, and his hands and feet were covered with bronze chains.
The chain was densely covered with seal incantations, shining brightly, imprisoning Xu Su without any resistance.
After he came in, he looked around the room, saw Fan Qingzhou's face, and immediately thought of the other person's identity.
"I actually alerted the deputy historian of the Ye Palace to personally interrogate me... Well, it was because the person I had people following was the Crown Prince of Qin, and Zhao Huaizhong was implicated, that's why I asked the deputy historian of the Ye Palace to come forward and interrogate me." Xu Su thought to himself.
"Are you the leader of the Zhao people in Xianyang, your name is Xu Su?" Fan Qingzhou finally raised his head from the bamboo scroll and asked.
"yes."
Xu Su had already made up his mind to die and looked calm.
Fan Qingzhou: "Who asked you to follow me, the Crown Prince of Qin?"
Xu Su knew very well that if he wanted to get his confession, he only needed to find someone who was proficient in the art of vertical and horizontal to interrogate him, and he would not be able to hide it, so he said whatever he asked and cooperated very well: "I, Da Zhao, have always cooperated with the Yinnu Cult.
Yesterday, Xia Si, the female lord of the Yinnu Cult, sent someone to send a message, asking me to obtain the whereabouts of the Crown Prince of Qin."
This makes sense.
The bad old man in front of him was also a pitiful man who was pushed out by Xia Si to be stabbed.
At this time Xu Su suddenly said: "I also have a question I would like to ask."
"Bold, there is no room for you to ask questions in front of the Deputy Historian." A Ye Yufu soldier standing behind Xu Su shouted sharply.
"It's okay, if you have any questions, just ask." Fan Qingzhou said.
"I want to know, who made the plan since yesterday to mobilize the troops of Ye Yu Mansion to force everyone from all parties to be in danger until we are found?"
Xu Su stared at Fan Qingzhou while speaking.
Fan Qingzhou is famous for his cunning, wisdom, and ruthlessness. He is known as the wise man of the Ye Yu Mansion and has an outstanding reputation among spies from all over the world.
According to Xu Su's inference, yesterday's action should have been done by Fan Qingzhou.
He asked about the exit to confirm his guess.
Unexpectedly, Fan Qingzhou smiled and ignored him at all.
What happened yesterday was a plan drawn up by Zhao Huaizhong. As a minister, how could he dare to leak information related to Zhao Huaizhong at will.
At this moment, a man came out from the south and entered the house through the door.
This man looked to be in his mid-twenties, a big man, but he was wearing a bright apricot robe with blue embroidery patterns, and two exquisitely decorated bracelets on his wrists, making him look like a young lady.
She also has a pair of slender phoenix eyes with raised eyebrows. There is a hint of charm in her glance, and her skin is as smooth as a woman's.
"It's this monster."
Xu Su's job was to collect intelligence about the Qin people. He recognized the other party's identity at a glance and was immediately stunned.
In the eyes of outsiders, the Yeyu Mansion has four officials with double history, eight generals, and twelve attendants, starting from the official history. Each of these people has their own characteristics.
In addition to Fan Qingzhou, the second official is named Baiyao, who rarely shows up. Outsiders don't even know whether he is a boy or a girl. The fourth official is the deputy of Fan Qingzhou and Baiyao, and is in charge of the four major departments of Ye Yu Mansion.
These four people often take the spotlight in most affairs.
The remaining eight generals and twelve attendants are the strange people that Ye Yu Mansion has recruited from all over the world over the years, and they are all unfathomable masters.
When Xu Su saw this man in a yellow gown and as fair as a woman, he thought that the man was Mu Qingkong, one of the Eight Generals, a demon general who was proficient in the art of left-handedness.
Rumor has it that this man is a yin and yang, and has the terrifying power to enter the underworld at night and drive ghosts. He can often devour people's souls in dreams and feed them to ghosts. Countless people have died at his hands.
Ye Yu Mansion is indeed a place of ghosts and gods, with monsters emerging in large numbers.
Although Xu Su fell into Ye Yu Mansion and had given up the desire to survive, he still felt heart palpitations.
"Fan Qingzhou, I heard that you have been accompanying our Prince Zhao Huaizhong of Great Qin all afternoon. What, you are crazy about wanting to be promoted, and you are anxious to be loyal to this Prince."
Mu Qingkong's voice was so feminine that it made Xu Su next to her get goosebumps.
Fan Qingzhou didn't even raise his head: "Be careful what you say. We are all deployed by the Qin Dynasty. What's wrong with being loyal to the prince?"
Mu Qingkong laughed twice strangely, stepped forward, and when his feet landed on the ground, there was no sound at all. He walked to Fan Qingzhou as if he was weightless: "What are you looking at, so focused?"
When Mu Qingkong spoke, he also lowered his head and glanced twice, with a hint of surprise on his face: "Safe house... express delivery escort... what are these things?"
Fan Qingzhou: "The prince made some notes casually when he was looking through the files in the afternoon.
Each idea has specific notes written down on it, and when I leave, let me see if it’s feasible here.”
Mu Qingkong laughed and said: "He has never been exposed to the operating system of my Ye Yu Mansion. If he writes these things, you can just let him do whatever he wants."
Fan Qingzhou said displeasedly: "Remember not to show your looseness in front of the Crown Prince, otherwise you will regret it sometimes."
Mu Qingkong sneered: "I am not from Qin. The most I can do is to be dismissed from my official position, so it is not bad to be an idle person."
Fan Qingzhou muttered: "Depending on the Crown Prince's methods, even if you really offend him, it won't be that easy to remove him from office."
Mu Qingkong raised the corners of her lips and said sarcastically: "No wonder you, Fan Qingzhou, were promoted so quickly. You are so loyal."
Fan Qingzhou raised the bamboo slip in his hand: "There are some things that I have thought about since yesterday afternoon when I saw the prince using his methods to force everyone in the city to be in danger. There is still no answer to it, so I wanted to discuss it with you."
Xu Su on the side was suddenly shocked when he heard: The turmoil in the city yesterday, and the methods used by all the forces to avoid it in fear, came from the prince of Qin, Zhao Huaizhong?
Fan Qingzhou glanced at Xu Su. He originally wanted to see if he could instigate rebellion, but he didn't want to kill this guy. Now he could only push him out and kill him.
He unfolded the bamboo slips in his hand: "The prince wrote many suggestions, including establishing secret safe houses in various places, using escort services as cover, and dispatching manpower to various places.
I have been studying these things all night, and I still don’t quite understand some of them, but other things, if they can be promoted, may greatly reduce the casualties in our Ye Yu Mansion.
These things written by the prince are not nonsense as you say."
He added: "You, Mu Qingkong, are conceited about your extraordinary talent. Do you know that the prince can break through the barriers in his first practice and reach the third level of the Sendai chapter. How do you compare to you?"
Mu Qingkong's eyes were full of astonishment. She was obviously shocked by Zhao Huaizhong's level of prowess and was speechless.
Xianyang Palace.
Zhao Huaizhong was also shocked by the contents on the silk book, feeling that he had opened the door to a new world:
"Using the unique method of inner breath movement, the inner energy can be sent into the place of human relations, and it can be filled and swelled at a fixed time every day. After a breakthrough, you can control its up, down, left, right, size, and duration, just as you wish.
This is amazing. With my cultivation talent and the blessing of plug-ins, I am invincible..."
