Qin Shi: I am in charge of the Eight Wonders

Chapter 89 Stealing Gold
That afternoon, not long after Xu Mingyue led the troops to move away, Han Fei hurried back from Zilanxuan.

He was careless.

But no one could have imagined that his brother Mingyue really had such ability.

Even now he regrets giving the token to the other party yesterday, not even in modern times. When he met Wei Zhuang, a disciple of the Guigu Zongheng Sect last night, he already regretted it.

But he really didn't expect that his brother Mingyue would strike so quickly.

This was just mentioned yesterday. Is there a clue today at noon?

... Or just go for the gold.

Regarding this, the ninth son of South Korea was quite depressed.

Their Prime Minister searched for six out of seven days without any clues. Although he could spend some time digging out some information from his Uncle Wang, this was obviously limited.

He also knew that even if these two uncles were really willing to cooperate, the final result would be unsatisfactory at best.

After all, as he said before, even if the two uncles didn't say anything, he would still be able to guess pretty well.

Even if these two uncles could say something, he would still have to go to their Korean general Ji Wuye regarding the gold issue.

According to his guess, both the bulk of the military pay gold and the location where the gold was hidden were under the sole control of the general.

His two uncles were at most a cover-up. After all, through some events this morning, he could more or less guess some of the personalities of these two uncles.

Timid and fearful, and a little greedy.

It is somewhat believable to say that the Ninth Young Master was the one who took this batch of gold, but the main culprits were these two uncles.

Han Fei could only say hehe.

His two uncles are not so bold yet.

"Ninth Young Master!"

"Ninth Young Master!"

At the gate outside the palace, two guards in armor paid a military salute to Han Fei. But now it was obvious that Han Fei couldn't care less about ordinary etiquette. He looked at the two gatekeepers and asked directly.

"This afternoon, is there a well-dressed young man who takes my token and asks for some people here?"

The two guards surrounded by their hands looked at each other, you look at me, I look at you.

Han Fei looked a little anxious, and suddenly thought of what his Mingyue brother and sister had said, so he added something while the iron was hot while the two of them had time to think.

"The young man is wearing black clothes. He looks very handsome and is almost 1.5 meters tall."

Having said this, the two guards actually nodded.

In fact, if they just don't know the token, I really don't blame them for neglecting their duties.

Although Xu Mingyue had indeed taken the token given to him by Han Fei, the style of Han Fei's token and the authority it represented were almost the same as those of a small leader.

Therefore, the token of Han Fei's ninth son is equivalent to the transfer order of a small and medium-sized army commander in South Korea.

Although there are not too many such tokens in South Korea, they are not too few either.

Especially near the Han Palace in Xinzheng, and even among the soldiers patrolling the Han Palace now, the tokens held by each general are the same as those given by the Ninth Young Master.

This morning, there were eight or nine soldiers' transfer orders, if not ten.

Perhaps it is rare outside Xinzheng, South Korea, but in the capital of South Korea, near my Hanwang Palace, it is simply too common.

But after being reminded by this Ninth Young Master, black clothes...

This soldier guarding the city did have some impressions. After all, in broad daylight at noon, a strange person wearing black clothes would inevitably attract the attention of the guards guarding the city.

He remembered that he was still nervous for a moment. It was not until the other party took out the warrant that he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

……Ha ha.

Who told this world to be the Warring States Period? Breaking into the palace in broad daylight and killing people was such a lawless thing. In the history of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there were only a few such knights.

The soldier on the right side of the gate thought for a while and recalled the scenes in his memory.

"That's it, Ninth Young Master, we do remember that there is such a young man."

"He was wearing black clothes at the time, which we thought was strange, but seeing that the other party had a warrant, we let him in."

"We were still a little skeptical at the time. After all, the people who can get the token are usually alternate soldiers. The most rare ones are some eunuchs in the palace. Thinking about it this way, it turns out that the token belongs to you, the Ninth Young Master."

"But with your attitude, Ninth Young Master, didn't you personally give the token to him, Ninth Young Master?"

Speaking of this, the soldier felt a little uneasy.

If the young man in black today had not personally given the token to him by the Ninth Young Master, but had taken it from him through some shady means.

...Then this will be a big trouble.

Who knows what the other party has been doing in the palace for such a long time, and even thinking about it carefully, the other party really mobilized a lot of people.

It’s really hard to say now.

They opened the gate. Although it was not them, it was the mistake of the Ninth Young Master of South Korea, but as the ones who opened the gate to let people out, they soldiers would inevitably bring disaster to Chi Yu.

Seemingly noticing the change in the faces of the two guards, Han Fei also calmed down.

Really, I was just too impatient.

If the other party hasn't come out yet, then it's not too late no matter how long you wait.

But if the other party has already left, then it is useless to worry now.

All you need to ask is the direction of their movements...

But look at the look in the eyes of the two gatekeepers, combined with what they just said.

Han Fei had a wry smile on his face. It seemed that he was a step too late...

"Brother, don't get me wrong. It's nothing. I did give the token to the young man in black. I'm just curious about what you did when he came to the palace with the token."

"Then that young man walked in which direction, that's all."

So after saying this, the stones in the hearts of the two guards guarding the city fell to the ground with a "thump".

"Oh, so that's it. Ninth Young Master, you scared me. If that's the case, we'd know something about it."

"It is true that as you said, the young man in black did come here to pick up some people. There were about seventy or eighty people. Actually, we didn't pay much attention to how many people there were. I would like to ask you, Master Ninth, about this." Understand, we are just gatekeepers.”

Han Fei waved his hand and didn't care about it. His main purpose now was to guide these people in which direction they went. He didn't care about the rest.

"It doesn't matter. The first purpose is to know which direction they are going. Just know this. Do you remember?"

direction?

Last time, the guard was stunned again, and the direction seemed to be...

The two looked to the right at the same time, and then looked at each other, seeming to have made a decision.

Han Fei finally understood where it was at this time.

He looked in the direction where the two soldiers were looking, which was the mountains to the east...

Thinking about it this way, the place where the ghost soldiers robbed the pay was indeed very close to that place. In addition, there were mountains and mountains covering the area, so there was no guarantee that the golden army pay would be lying in that cave.

But I have to say that he had already guessed this, but it was difficult to find.Even beyond what he thought, their Prime Minister had sent many soldiers to search there for the past seven days, but still found nothing.

It seems that his golden place should be a very hidden place. However, thinking about it this way, it is a shame that Brother Mingyue can find it.

Han Fei nodded, but then put on a wry smile.

Now he already knows that a large amount of gold is indeed in that mountain range, but even if he knows the direction and general location, what can he do?

...I still can’t find it myself?

Looking at it now, it turns out that we still have to rely on Brother Mingyue. I hope he can bring good news.

But he shouldn't be tired here. Maybe he should have a good talk with his two uncles, maybe he can come up with something.

Han Fei sighed. Although he was still a little disappointed, it was not without gain.

After saying hello to the two soldiers guarding the gate, Han Fei prepared to enter the palace and begin to interrogate the two uncles.

At this moment, a voice with unsteady breath came from behind: "Brother, why are you walking so fast?!"

Han Fei turned around in confusion. He knew that he had forgotten the carriage he was rushing to catch, and that he had left behind his sister behind him.

Realizing this, Han Fei felt a pain in his heart, and he had already anticipated the next outcome.

Sure enough, what came face to face was my sister's delicate and angry face.

Cute, fierce, but not too pink.

Following behind her was a somewhat helpless figure.

Xu Qingxian?

Xu Mingyue's sister, why did she come with her?
Han Fei raised his eyebrows, but when he saw the other party's helpless and aggrieved expression, and the delicate hands tightly grasped by his sister, he lost his temper.

Think about it, the information I got was provided by Brother Mingyue's sister.

Han Fei shook his head with a wry smile. It seemed that Brother Mingyue's sister was really led astray by her own sister and would say anything to others.

However, this was exactly what she wanted, but she felt a little sorry for his good friend, but I have to say that this time, my sister was very beautiful.

...Including the current problem.

"Brother Ninth, why didn't you wait for me?"

"You actually left like that on a horse and asked your lovely sister to run back alone. Are you still not a human being?"

Han Fei smiled and said, "You can also hire a carriage."

Princess Honglian pouted, her face turned red for a while, then pale for a while, and finally stammered: "I, I didn't bring any money."

Well, the truth is out.

But the current problem is that we still have to appease this little girl Honglian. If this little girl gets angry and goes directly to my father to sue me, I won’t be able to bear it...

Then after walking behind Honglian, Han Fei personally took Honglian back to the house. He even asked some waiters who were coming back to prepare some snacks, find a sister for himself, and send them to Xu Qingxian.

And when she saw that her brother was so interested in Princess Honglian, she was no longer angry.

……That night.

"Quick, call someone, I want to see Young Master Han Fei."

"You, go quickly, go and tell Ninth Young Master Han Fei that I have something important to discuss with him."

In the palace, Han Fei swayed the wine in his glass, which emitted crystal light through the candlelight.

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly. The scene just happened between two cups of tea.

However, he did not expect that the two uncles would have such a tacit understanding and propose a compromise to him almost at the same time.

"It's a pity that we can't rush now. It's not the time yet. We need to let them dry out."

"When they are anxious and completely confused, it's time for me to completely close the net."

But Han Fei ignored one thing. Not all the guards in the prison were his. Their Korean general was obviously much more influential than the Ninth Young Master who had just returned. .

He thought he could avoid some problems if he handled the case quickly enough. Unfortunately, the entire palace was almost infiltrated by the South Korean general, and Ji Wuye was faster than him.

There is an emerald tiger on the stone, a white-capped blood-clothed monkey, a succubus on the blue sea, and a cloaked guest under the moon.

The four evil generals in the night control four different intelligence departments: finance, military, government, and intelligence.

After tonight, night falls.

Han Fei will get nothing, at most the corpses of the two uncles...

What Ji Wuye also didn't know was that there was an unruly person who was faster than him, while he was still enjoying the fruits of victory and preparing to squander it.

Little did he know that his home had been stolen.

On the other side, in the cave.

A secret talisman was affixed to Xu Mingyue's body. Under the strict guard of many guards, the young man in black walked in openly and without any concealment.

But unexpectedly, these soldiers, who alternated every ten seconds, continued to patrol as if they were nothing, as if the young man was a ball of air.

"The effect of this talisman is indeed overbearing."

Xu Mingyue whispered, but he did not dare to speak loudly.

But in fact, this talisman is not as overbearing as imagined, but the soldiers guarding it are just ordinary people, so few of them even have third-rate masters.

Whenever one of these people reaches the second level, his whereabouts will be exposed.

……Unfortunately.

Xu Mingyue smiled and asked, what would it be like to be a gangster?
He wanted to give it a try tonight.

Tonight is destined not to be a peaceful night.

When dawn breaks, the clouds disperse, light comes, and the wind flows.

A wisp of breeze that brought the truth blew into the cave and lifted a corner of the sack covering the gold pile.

The patrolling soldier yawned and looked at the sky. It was time to change his shift.

Just as he was about to check whether the gold had been tampered with by some people with evil intentions.

He was shocked to find out, gold?
Where is the gold here?
It's just a high platform built by a group of broken stones and green bricks.

But these things were clearly still there yesterday...

The soldier wanted to say something and opened his mouth, but he didn't know whether he should make a sound.

If their general discovers it, all this pile of gold will have been stolen and replaced by others...

When he thought of this, a drop of cold sweat broke out on the back of the soldier's neck.

According to the general's character, the first person to discover this matter would not only not be a hero, but would be used to kill the chicken and respect the monkey.

He seems to be finished.
