Wudang

Chapter 61

At noon on March [-]th, Zhang Junbao came to the Prime Minister's Mansion to look for Ahema again.

Since discussing with Fang Yilian, it has been three consecutive days to come to the Prime Minister's Mansion to pick up the keys.

This is what I agreed with Ahema, and I went to the prison to see Prime Minister Wen for three consecutive days.

In the past few days, he provided Fang Yilian with the layout, routes and guards of the sky prison.

If we really want to save Prime Minister Wen at that time, it is obviously impossible without an accurate map.

This made Fang Yilian amazed. With Zhang Junbao as an insider, the information was detailed and accurate, which could greatly increase the success rate of the rescue.

"Has the prime minister not come down yet?" Zhang Junbao asked the housekeeper of the prime minister's mansion.

"There is something in the palace. The prime minister sent someone back to say that His Royal Highness will return to Dadu tonight, so he has to stay in the palace and wait." The housekeeper said.

Zhang Junbao, who was following behind the butler, was shocked when he heard this, and came here.

That's right, the so-called prince is a fake prince, monk Gao and the others started to act.

"Didn't His Royal Highness just tour the north with His Majesty? Why did you come back suddenly?" Zhang Junbao asked pretending to be surprised.

"I heard that His Highness the Crown Prince came back to do Buddhist work according to the order. My lord has to prepare the sacrificial objects for the gods and Buddhas, and also prepare to welcome His Highness the Crown Prince." The housekeeper said.

"I see." Zhang Junbao didn't ask any more.

This matter has been confirmed, which means that the assassination will be tonight.

"Here we are, Daoist Zhang, wait a moment." The butler walked into the study and closed the door.

Zhang Junbao pricked up his ears and listened carefully to the movements in the study.

There are many guards around, it is not easy for him to make any changes while standing here.

Fortunately, Ahema's study room didn't have any soundproof formations.

If the formation is activated, it is often when Ahema is discussing secrets with people in the study, in case the content of the conversation is leaked.

So Zhang Junbao can still faintly hear the movement in the study.

After a while, the butler came out and handed the black iron key to Zhang Junbao.

Ahema didn't bring the key with him, and when he came to the prime minister's mansion these days, no matter whether Ahema was there or not, he followed the housekeeper to get the key.

After taking the key, Zhang Junbao left the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Outside the Prime Minister's Mansion, Zhang Junbao made a subtle gesture towards a corner not far away. There was a beggar squatting there. After seeing Zhang Junbao's gesture, he immediately picked up the broken bowl on the ground and left.

This is Fang Yilian's eyeliner here, the purpose is to get in touch with Zhang Junbao better.

If Zhang Junbao has any news, he can pass it on through them.

"I hope it will be in time." Zhang Junbao thought to himself.

He remembered that Ahema was assassinated at night, so there is still a lot of time for Fang Yilian to operate, I believe it will be no problem.

"Daoyi, you can proceed." Zhang Junbao turned to Miao Daoyi and said.

Miao Dao's eyes changed, he knew what Zhang Junbao was referring to.

He nodded and said, "Master Uncle, I will make arrangements after I go to the prison with you."

Once the rescue is successful, the person must be sent out of the city immediately.

Ahema was assassinated, the court would definitely search the city to catch the assassin, wouldn't it be too ridiculous to stay in the city if he was discovered?
So, Miao Dao will cooperate with Fang Yilian and the others to send people out of the city.

Miao Daoyi's status as the head disciple of the Quanzhen Sect is much more convenient than Fang Yilian and the others.

Some things may not be possible for ordinary people, but if it is Miao Daoyi who has status and background, the government will generally not offend him and give him convenience.

"You go first, I'll go to the prison by myself." Zhang Junbao said, "Don't worry, I'm fine, who else will kill me again?"

Miao Dao thinks about it too, this is the metropolis, and it is safe.

As for the assassination of Ahema, it involved the prince, and it was a confrontation between the two major forces of the imperial court.

As soon as Miao Dao realized the importance of saving Prime Minister Wen, he really had to keep a close eye on the following matters.

After all, it's not easy for me to disclose this kind of thing to others, and I have to do it myself to keep it secret.

Zhang Junbao's going to the sky prison is equivalent to a routine.

Because even if he took the key to open the cell door and enter, the door would still be watched by Ahema's guards.

Fortunately, after I discussed with Fang Yilian, I didn't need to communicate with Prime Minister Wen at all, so I have been talking about persuasion these two days.

It seems that he is working hard to do things for the court.

The result is obvious, Prime Minister Wen doesn't want to see him at all, and his persuasion has no effect.

This time, Zhang Junbao really wanted to end the persuasion immediately, but in order to avoid arousing Ahema's suspicion, he still had to persevere and stay in the cell for at least the same time as the previous two days.

"Daozhang Zhang seems a little restless today?" Prime Minister Wen suddenly asked.

This surprised Zhang Junbao. He thought he was covering up well, but he didn't expect Prime Minister Wen to see the clue.

"The prime minister was joking." Zhang Junbao smiled.

Prime Minister Wen just said this and there is no more to say.

Zhang Junbao didn't care about this, even though it was the first time Prime Minister Wen spoke to him in three days.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Zhang Junbao didn't stay in the sky prison for too long.

It's not that he doesn't want to stay for too long, after all, the sky prison is not an ordinary place, and if he really wants to stay for too long, it will arouse suspicion.

Coupled with today's exception, he is eager to return.

Back at Ahema's prime minister's mansion, he was greeted by the housekeeper.

As expected, Ahema did not come back.

Because Ahema was a little afraid of Zhenjin, he did everything by himself, not wanting to find an excuse for Zhenjin to attack.

"This is the key." Zhang Junbao handed the key to the housekeeper.

After the butler took it, he checked the key before turning and entering the study.

Similarly, Zhang Junbao pricked up his ears to listen carefully to the movements in the study.

"Will Daoist Zhang come back tomorrow?" the butler asked with a smile after he came out.

"It will probably take a while to use the key next time, please take care of the housekeeper." Zhang Junbao replied, "Since the key has been returned, I will take my leave first."

"Where is there, the old man will send Daoist Zhang off." The housekeeper said hastily.

He knew that the prime minister attached great importance to this Daoist Zhang, and he also knew Zhang Junbao's identity, so he didn't dare to neglect him.

After leaving the Prime Minister's Mansion, Zhang Junbao let out a long breath.

A gust of wind blew, and he couldn't help shivering.

Only at this moment did he realize that his back was wet with cold sweat.

He glanced at the beggar in the corner not far away, and walked over calmly.

Seeing Zhang Junbao approaching, the beggar got up.

Zhang Junbao passed by him and handed a key to the beggar as he passed by.

Looking at the beggars going away, Zhang Junbao secretly sighed in his heart.

The next thing is to look at Fang Yilian and the others.

On March [-]th, that is, the second day after discussing with Fang Yilian, he came to Ahema to get the key and handed it over to the person sent by Fang Yilian.

They forged one after the key.

This imitation is the one I gave to the housekeeper just now.

That is to say, the key in Ahema's mansion is fake now, it is really the one that Zhang Junbao gave to the beggar just now.

Originally, their ideal plan was that the imitation cast key could be used.

It's a pity that they finally found out that the result was not what they imagined.

The black iron keys cast by the imperial court have some special engravings. These engravings are very complicated and cannot be imitated at all, at least not within a short period of time.

Therefore, the imitation black iron key can only look very similar, but it can't really be used to open the door.

Although it is possible to confuse the real one with the real one, most people would not be able to recognize it, but this butler is often in contact with the key. When Zhang Junbao handed over the fake key just now, his heart beat violently.

Fortunately, he got away with it in the end, and the housekeeper didn't notice it.

Thinking about it now, Zhang Junbao thinks that Fang Yilian's craftsmen are the best.

The engraving on the key is a little different, and even Ahema wouldn't be able to spot the difference.

The imitation key cannot be used, so the real key can only be replaced. The purpose of stealing the key is to remove the suspicion from this matter.

If his key has not been returned and the prison is robbed, the court will find him.

It was a very risky move, but at least half the battle was done.

Find a way to put the real key back into Ahema's study later, that is the real success.

When Bo Zheng returned home, he went directly to the study, his face a little gloomy.

He had objections to Zhang Junbao entering the Xuantie cell to meet Wen Tianxiang, and it was really unreasonable for him to have a servant give him the keys for three consecutive days.

It's just that this is Ahema's order, no matter how dissatisfied he is in his heart, he can only obey it.

After calming down, he prepared to put the key in the secret compartment of the study.

"Lord Bo Zheng, put the key away." Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of Bo Zheng and grabbed the key.

Bo Zheng's eyes widened. He wanted to call for help, but found that his neck was cold, and a dagger was resting on his neck.

He swallowed: "Who are you? What do you want to do?"

"It doesn't matter who we are, and we don't want to do anything." The masked man laughed.

After speaking, he threw the key to another person in the study, and that person quickly left with the key.

"No~~ no, the key." Bo Zheng's face changed drastically.

The key was related to Wen Tianxiang, if he lost it in his hands, the consequences would be serious.

"Don't worry, my lord. As long as you cooperate, the key will be sent back later. As long as you keep your mouth shut, you won't hurt your lord." The masked man threatened in a low voice.

How could Bo Zheng not be worried?
What this group of people want to do, how can he still not know?

"You will not succeed. If you want to save Wen Tianxiang, even if you get my key." Bo Zheng tried to calm himself down.

"Don't worry about the other adults. When you say something outside, just say that you have something important to do in the study. No one is allowed to come near you until you hear the call."

Bo Zheng could only follow through.

At the same time, it was almost the same situation when Zhu He returned to his residence.

He was immediately taken hostage by the people sent by Fang Yilian.

You can only obediently hand over the key.

Compared with Ahema, the guards of Bo Zheng and Zhu He were much weaker.

This is also what Fang Yilian said, it would be difficult for him to get Ahema's key.

As for the other two, for him, as long as he was prepared in advance, he still had a chance.

Because of the clear goal, he had already sent people to prepare for it two days ago, so everything went smoothly.

In this way, the three keys come together.

Now it's up to the high monks and the others, as long as they make any noise, it's time for them to do it.

~~~~~~~~~~~
