Chapter 711 of Fanghua of the Great Wei Dynasty, knowing that the fishing sky was full of dark clouds again, a "rumbling..." thunder came from the distance, as if coming from the horizon.
In the quaint villa in Yonghe, Mrs. Bai was sitting on her knees in her bedroom, looking at the fox fur on the floor, thinking that it could be put away recently after hanging out for so long. The fox fur was almost new, it was just before New Year's Eve last year.
A gift from the Jin Palace.
At that time, Mrs. Bai wanted to refuse, but the visitor said that the Jin Palace had sent many gifts on New Year's Eve, not just to Mrs. Bai, so Mrs. Bai did not refuse. But why didn't she give her anything else, but a fox fur? Besides, people like her, Jin
It is unlikely that the palace officials would have thought that it must have been ordered by Qin Liang himself.
I remember that when we met in the big market, Mr. Bai talked about the spy, pretending to be a craftsman who repaired fox fur. Qin Liang really listened to what she said attentively, and judging from the fact that she wore a sheep fur coat to the appointment, she probably lacked
A fox fur coat, so he gave her a new one within a few days! By the time New Year's Eve arrived, her cousin Bai Li had returned to Hanoi County, and no one paid attention to the Bai family anymore. It was Qin Liang who remembered to bring her meat.
Although it looks a bit like meat after a sacrifice, it is normal for relatives and friends to share the sacrifices.
When did she start caring so much about such small things? It’s not like she has never lived in a big family, so of course she understands what is most useful. But maybe she has been ignored and ridiculed too much in the past few years.
, she would be very reluctant to part with such a small kindness.
Qin Liang's words seemed to make sense, just don't interact with each other, out of sight, out of mind! Bai's ears seemed to hear him speaking again, and she seemed to hear the uncontrollable sounds coming from her throat. She usually didn't
to think about that kind of thing,
Now I think about it often alone.
With nothing to do, Mr. Bai couldn't help but leaned over the platform, pressed his face against the fox fur, and put his fingers on the soft fur.
At this time, a voice suddenly came from outside the door, which startled Ms. Bai! She stood up from the collapse in a hurry. It turned out to be the maid in the yard, reporting that a messenger had come, claiming to be from Hanoi County to deliver the message. Mrs. Bai then
Let's meet in the wing.
The person who came was a fair-faced and thin young man. He was indeed a messenger, but he was not from the Bai family in Hanoi County. He was carrying a letter from Master Sima! In fact, Mr. Bai did not need to say much at this time. He only had to tell the messenger that the maid just now was the Prime Minister.
Just someone sent by the government would be enough. But for some reason, she finally didn't say anything.
Within two days, Xie Fu, the school administrator, met another man from the south, named Duan, who was a stout man in the guest house next to the small market in the west of the city.
The strong man closed the door and said, "General, why don't we meet at Waiguo Market in the west of the city? There are many people there, so it's easier to hide." Xie Fu said, "I can meet another person here, the distance is closer. From Wu Ying Mansion
Come up here." The strong man suddenly said "Oh".
Xie Fu added: "It's not conspicuous here. People often summon You Chang to the guest house to have fun. Once a woman comes over, most people who see her think she is You Chang."
The strong man nodded and said: "General Xie is familiar with Luoyang and has thought everything carefully."
The two talked for a while, and sure enough, there was a knocking sound on the wooden door. Xie Fu glanced through the crack in the door, opened the door, and a woman walked in. The woman who came was the Wu family's residence.
maid.
Xie Fu made the introduction and asked in front of the strong man: "Wu
You were accepted as King Zhaoyi of Jin Dynasty, how many maids did you bring with you?"
The woman shook her head and said, "I probably didn't bring any."
"Oh?" Xie Fu made a voice. He pondered for a moment, then walked to the window and looked out.
The strong man said: "Isn't Mrs. Wu the deposed wife of General Sima?"
Xie Fu said: "Exactly, I guess Wu and Qin Liang have had an affair for a long time. When Yin Mo was still in the school affairs office, Qin Liang helped Wu..." He suddenly paused and said
, "That's not quite right!"
The strong man hurriedly asked: "What's wrong?"
Xie Fu frowned and said: "Normally, guests don't come so frequently to this guest house, and today doesn't seem to be a special day. We have to go!"
The expressions of the strong man and the woman changed accordingly, and they immediately followed Xie Fu out of the room. As soon as the three of them came out, they suddenly heard a short whistle, and Xie Fu became even more anxious and walked quickly to the stairs.
.
As soon as the figure below flashed, Xie Fu immediately let go of his hand from the wooden railing and turned back to walk up. The other two people didn't know what happened and followed Xie Fu back to the attic.
The three of them returned to the room where they had just been. Xie Fu immediately bolted the door, opened the back window, turned around and said, "Jump!"
The strong man got out first and jumped down with a "pop" sound. The woman climbed onto the window with a look of horror on her face. Xie Fu immediately pushed her from behind, and a cry of surprise was heard immediately. Xie Fu also jumped out of the window.
The woman sat on the ground and cried: "My leg is injured!"
With a "swish" sound, Xie Fu pulled out the Huanshou knife, and without hesitation, he thrust the knife into the woman's chest. The woman screamed and stared at Xie Fu with eyes wide open in disbelief. Xie Fu looked at
He glanced at her and stabbed her neck again.
.
The strong man was stunned. Xie Fu ran to catch up and said, "She knows me."
Xie Fu found a small door with ease and rushed out immediately. There was an alley outside, and two men in Tsing Yi stood not far away. They were stunned for a moment, and when they saw Xie Bin's bloody ring-head knife, they immediately pulled out the knife.
, one of them shouted: "Here comes someone, behind you!" Xie Fu immediately waved his sword and rushed forward, and the strong man also drew his sword and followed.
"Clang!" There was a sound, and a faint light flashed in the dim alley. A man in Tsing Yi screamed in pain, grabbed his arm with one hand and stepped back. The other man in Tsing Yi also waved the ring knife, retreating and defending.
Seeing this, Xie Fu asked the strong men to turn around and run away. But soon they stopped in a hurry because several armed young men appeared in the alley opposite! So Xie Fu turned around and ran back, intending to attack the previous man.
Two men in green clothes fought to clear a bloody path.
However, the injured man in Tsing Yi returned to the back door of the guest house and closed the wooden door. The sound of "rumbling..." horse hoofs could be heard in the distance.
A group of cavalry appeared at the entrance of the alley. Although none of them were wearing armor, there were many of them. A man in front shouted: "Come on, capture the ones alive!" Another voice said: "Follow General Jian's order!"
The man who came up was holding a long wooden stick, but judging from the posture of the horse, he was a serious cavalry! Xie Fu was already secretly sighing that something was wrong, despair welling up in his heart, today is going to be over!
With a "clang" sound, Xie Fu held a ring-shaped sword in both hands and deflected the blow. Suddenly, the tiger's mouth was stunned, and the man retreated and hit the wall. In an instant, the second rider rushed over, swept sideways, and immediately caught Xie Fu.
On his thigh, he screamed in pain,
People also fell to the ground.
After a while, the cavalrymen dismounted and rushed forward together, pinning Xie and Fu to the ground.
The man who was previously called "General Jian" loudly shouted: "Send the order to the second, third and fourth villages to go to the big city immediately and capture all those people!" Someone responded: "That's the order!"
...Not long after, Ma Mao, Yin Ci, and Zhu Deng all came to the back room of the west hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion. The three of them bowed and Ma Mao said directly: "Your Majesty, our servants have captured the two spies and captured the entire East."
Wu caravan! One of the women’s spies died, and the thieves silenced her.”
Yinci clasped his fists and said: "The undercover agent of the school affairs office is also among them, it is Xie Fu! The king also knew him before."
Sure enough, there was an undercover agent from Master Sima in the school affairs office! The person Qin Liang wanted to catch the most this time was this undercover agent. It was probably this same thief who had betrayed Wei's intelligence in the first place.
Qin Liang breathed a sigh of relief and blurted out, "Xie Fu?"
Zhu Deng immediately said: "I was in the school affairs office very early, and I was the tall guy. He was not tall, and always had a smile on his face. He loved to inquire about other people's trivial matters, and he had good relationships with many people."
Qin Liang said "Oh" and vaguely remembered that there was such a person. Qin Liang had served as a school official, but there were twenty or thirty school officials alone. It was impossible for him to remember everyone's names after such a long time.
As soon as Zhu Deng described it, he had a rough impression.
"I didn't like this person at that time. After dealing with him once, I felt that he was not a good bird." Qin Liang said casually, "But I really didn't expect that this person was actually Sima Shi's minion, and he was really hidden deep!
"
Zhu Deng and Yinci both agreed, saying that they had not thought it was Xie Fu earlier.
Yinci sighed: "
It's all because of the servant's softness, otherwise Xie Fu would have been kicked out of the school office long ago. This thief used to follow Yin Mo's people, and they worked together to punish the servant. But after Yin Mo died, he came over in every possible way to please and admit his mistake, and the servant was happy for a while
, so he let it go. Unexpectedly, it was a lie that he was following Yin Mo, but it was actually the Sima family behind him!"
Ma Mao then said: "The maid in the Wu family's residence broke her leg when she jumped out of the window and escaped. She was killed by Xie Fu twice."
Zhu Deng said: "The spy who delivered the letter to Mrs. Bai the day before yesterday has not been caught yet. The maid of the Wu family really had a problem. She asked the servants to catch her in the guest house. Your Majesty is really good at predicting things!"
"Originally it was just suspicion." Qin Liang said, and then looked at Ma Mao and said: "You have done a good job, and everyone deserves credit. Including those who participated in the surveillance and arrests, everyone will be rewarded."
Ma Mao cupped his fists and said, "Serving the king is just a matter of duty."
Qin Liang turned to Yinci and said: "In recent years, the school affairs office has rarely detained people directly, but the court has not explicitly taken back the law enforcement power. You will be responsible for handling the rest of the interrogation." He thought for a while and then reminded,
"Most of the people in the caravan must not be spies, otherwise there would be no way to keep it secret."
Yinci bowed his head and said: "Here!"
The three of them said goodbye, and then Chen Qian, Zhong Hui and others also came in. Qin Liang mentioned Sima Division's undercover and emphasized that during the Battle of Hanzhong, the spies betrayed intelligence and affected the battlefield situation.
While talking, Qin Liang thought of Mrs. Bai again. Mrs. Bai had met Sima Shi's emissary the day before yesterday, and today Ma Mao and others were able to stop the spies. It can be seen that Mrs. Bai knew that Qin Liang was fishing, but did not warn the emissary.
.
In addition, Qin Liang couldn't help but wonder about the relationship between Master Sima and Zhuge Ke.
