Song Dynasty female artist

Chapter 1020: Suffering from Lack of Experience

Pingcuo: "I think it would be better to let people break through the barrier directly."

After so much trouble, the defense map has been obtained for several months, but it has not been sent out yet. At this point, it is not clear whether it is the Song court or the Liao Dynasty that is embarrassed.

"Xiao Yingsu": "Third Prince, that's easy. How can the formation set up by two Mahayana and seven Fusion masters be broken so easily?"

Pingcuo: "If Mr. Xiao believes in me, I have the confidence to break this formation."

Li Shijie: "What do you mean?"

"I'm sure you've all heard about the power of the Bone God. Let her take the defense map with her, and we'll definitely be able to leave the city smoothly."

After Pingcuo finished speaking, several people looked at each other with different thoughts. In order to prevent the other party from seeing their thoughts, they raised their wine glasses and took small sips to conceal their thoughts.

"Mr. Xiao is silent, is he worried about this prince?"

"The Third Prince has misunderstood."

"Xiao Yingsu" put down his wine glass and said, "This decision is too sudden. I need to think about it carefully."

"Then you have to decide quickly, sir. After all, time is running out!"

Zhao Jin appeared only after Li Shijie and Pingcuo left.

I heard their entire conversation in the next room. What Pingcuo said makes sense. They are on high alert today, so who knows if they have guessed their intentions.

However, if we rashly let the Bone God leave with the defense map, we cannot guarantee that everything will go smoothly.

Zhao Jin rarely finds himself in such a difficult situation.

The last time, it seemed to be more than 30 years ago, it was also because of the defense map. He chased the Xixia spy all the way south, thinking that he could get the defense map, but he never expected Su Yixin to show up halfway.

By the time reinforcements arrived, he had no chance of escaping.

However, at that time, the Liao Dynasty was still ruled by the previous emperor. He was only coveting Western Xia and did not have such an urgent need for a defense map, so in the end he still brought the defense map back to Beijing.

However, because of that incident, Emperor Renzong trusted him more and more, and many important tasks were assigned to him later.

But half of the time, Mr. Pan was by his side.

The man pretending to be Xiao Yingsu asked Zhao Jin: "Mr. Xiao, we have to make a decision as soon as possible."

The New Year's Day ancestor worship ceremony in the Taimiao was just around the corner, and they didn't have much time to think about it.

Zhao Jin: "Send someone to check around the Imperial Ancestral Temple to see if there is any difference from usual."

"Yes."

In his heart, Zhao Jin was reluctant to hand over the defense map to Pingcuo. It was better to keep it in his own hands. Once he gave it to Pingcuo, who knew if he would keep his promise and return the defense map to him? Or if he would make excessive demands and make them suffer in silence.

Therefore, he is still willing to follow his own choice.

Even if more people will be sacrificed.

The man took the order and went to the side to remove his makeup, then painted on his face again. It looked like a simple action, but when he looked up, he had a completely new face.

The man came to the vicinity of the Taimiao.

Unlike the previous investigators, he did not stay in one place. Instead, he carried a bamboo basket filled with mostly fresh vegetables and walked past the Temple of Heaven as if no one was around.

Xin Aowu, who was not far away, did not notice the man at first.

After all, it's too inconspicuous.

Who would have thought that the man who flashed by with a basket of vegetables on his back could be a spy.

The man just walked by as if nothing had happened, but in fact he didn't see the whole picture. He needed to walk a few more times to get a clear picture of the situation.

When he passed by the Taimiao for the second time, he was no longer carrying a vegetable basket on his back, but a bundle, and he had changed his clothes. However, because he was wearing a bamboo hat, he did not change his makeup.

This time he was walking towards Xin Aowu.

Xin Aowu still didn't notice anything unusual about this person, but he noticed the way he walked, as if he had seen him somewhere.

The third time, the man changed his clothes again, took a sword, and dressed like a knight. He turned his back to Xin Aowu and passed by the Imperial Ancestral Temple.

This time, Xin Aowu noticed this person, or to be more precise, he noticed the person's walking posture.

In less than two quarters of an hour, the man passed by the Taimiao three times.

Xin Aowu may not be as accomplished in literature as his brother, but he is quite knowledgeable in martial arts. Some people have said that Xin Aowu is like his grandfather, General Pang.

Xin Aowu was extremely excited when he found the clue.

She ran downstairs quickly, put her hands behind her back, and followed the man slowly.

However, the man was very alert. He noticed someone behind him, but he was not sure if the person was following him, so he quickened his pace and passed by the Taimiao.

This was the first time Xin Aowu did this and he had no experience.

When the other party accelerated, he also accelerated.

He exposed himself in an instant.

The man thought to himself that this was terrible and was thinking about how to get rid of this person.

After the Taimiao, a short walk away is the busy street. If you want to get rid of people and blend into the crowd, this is a good way.

Xin Aowu looked at the person in front of him, who was moving like a fish into water, very smoothly, and scratched the back of his head anxiously.

He was eager to catch the man, and the more he did so, the more he felt that there were more and more people in front of him, and the distance between him and the man was getting farther and farther.

Finally, he watched the man disappear in front of him.

Xin Aowu slapped his head in annoyance: "What a pity, he got away!"

Although he was annoyed, his brain was still online. Even though he lost the person, he knew to go to Prince Jin's mansion immediately to report what had happened.

When Xin Aowu came this time, Gu Qingjue happened to be there.

Xin Aowu said excitedly: "That person went back and forth to investigate the Imperial Temple three times, and each time he was dressed differently. But martial artists don't look at his face, they look at his body shape. I still recognized him the third time."

"here you go!"

Young people should be praised.

Xin Aowu felt a little embarrassed by Gu Qingjue's straightforward praise.

“But I still let him get away.”

In his twenty-plus years of life, this was the first time he had stalked someone.

I suffered the loss due to lack of experience.

Gu Qingjue stood up, patted Xin Aowu on the shoulder, and looked at him with an affirmative tone: "You have done a good job in being able to find him even when he is in disguise."

"really?"

"Of course it's true, but tomorrow is New Year's Day, you should stay at home with your mother and don't go out again."

Xin Aowu: "Is something going to happen tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow is the day to worship our ancestors in the Imperial Ancestral Temple. Commander Zeng and Commander Fang will protect the Imperial Ancestral Temple tightly. Are you relieved now?"

Xin Aowu nodded.

"Your Highness Prince Jin, I will return home first."

After Xin Aowu left, Gu Yifei came out and said, "The young master of the Xin family has good intentions, but he followed that person just now, and I think he must have alarmed Xiao Yingsu. Will they take the risk again tomorrow?"

Yunxiao Pavilion
The man was also reporting what had just happened to Zhao Jin.

"You said someone was following you. Were you discovered?"

Man: "I'm not sure about this subordinate. Is he because he found out that I was investigating the situation in the Imperial Ancestral Temple, or is he simply thinking that my subordinate's behavior is suspicious?"
