After the general's legitimate daughter was reborn, the ascetic prime minister pinched her wais

Chapter 46 Wang Yong falls, you are free

Gao Wenyan spent half the night on the deck with the wind blowing, and his heart was in a mess.

This is obviously good news. If Chu Xu really has some kind of agreement with her eldest brother, at least he will not harm the Gao family.

But Chu Xu's face and Chu Xu's voice made her unable to get them out of her mind for a long time.

She sighed, opened her hands and fell back, filling her eyes with the stars in the sky.

When they dock and get off the boat tomorrow, Yan Chu and Gao Youshuang will no longer be there. Only Gao Wenyan and Chu Xu will be left, and they cannot say hello even if they meet each other.

In the room, Chu Xu was still upset that he couldn't control his emotions just now, but when he saw Gao Wenyan came back as if nothing was wrong, he felt even more blocked.

They both looked at each other and turned their heads silently.

In the silence, the man figured it out and shouted hesitantly, gesturing for them to take away the cloth.

Because the wound had not been treated, white skin had already appeared on his lips.

"How? What do you have to say?"

Gao Wenyan moved a chair and sat in front of him, crossing his legs and looking very arrogant.

The man tried to open his mouth, only to find that his voice was hoarse and he could not speak a complete sentence.

Gao Wenyan was about to take the tea cup, but she saw a hand picking up the teapot one step ahead of her, and poured it into the man's mouth mercilessly.

Chu Xu looked coldly and said, "Just tell me."

Seeing Gao Wenyan looking at him, Chu Xu looked back sideways, his calm eyes without any emotion.

In this way, Gao Wenyan knew clearly.

He is annoyed.

She put her hands on the back of the chair, tilted her head and thought: But why is she angry?

"20 people."

Gao Wenyan came to his senses and asked, "Where are they all?"

"I gave the signal before boarding and they will be waiting at the dock."

It turned out to be the case.

This man had discovered them a long time ago. He was afraid that they would run away and the water in the bamboo basket would be in vain. He was also afraid that he would not be able to defeat them, so he never took any action on the boat.

When the men and horses gathered at the pier, Gao Wenyan and the others came directly to catch the turtles in an urn, and it was difficult for them to fly even if they had wings.

Gao Wenyan looked unhappy, but he praised him: "You are very clever."

Chu Xu asked: "What order was given?"

"If I find you, I will kill you directly."

Wang Yong is going to kill him.

Chu Xu was not angry and continued to ask: "How did you find this place?"

"Huiyuan County has Wang Yong's spy, and someone saw you appearing. So we spread out and searched around Huiyuan County."

The two exchanged glances, and their guess was indeed correct.

"On the day of the Lantern Festival, someone discovered us, so you all came running over?"

"Ah."

The night they rested at the inn gave them just enough time to get together.

Gao Wenyan asked: "Besides seeing him in Huiyuan County, what other news did you get?"

After finishing speaking, Chu Xu glanced at her, and Gao Wenyan cleverly looked away as if sensing something.

The man thought for a moment and replied: "Nothing else. It wasn't until they said there was another woman last night that we enlarged our target."

If it was only last night that he found out that Chu Xu was with someone else, then Wang Yong should not easily think of Gao Wenyan.

Thinking of this, Gao Wenyan finally felt a little more at ease.

The man suddenly said to Chu Xu: "If what you say is true, I will never let Wang Yong go even if I die."

Seeing the overwhelming hatred in the man's eyes, Gao Wenyan knew that he had believed Chu Xu's words.

In other words, he was not without doubts from the beginning, and Chu Xu's words only confirmed his suspicions. "My code name is 37, and I was among the seven people taken away by No. 30."

37 said that his parents were starving to death.

There was no grain harvest, and the strong winds damaged their thatched hut. They were literally homeless.

In order to survive and not follow the same path as his parents, he often climbed over the wall to steal leftovers from rich people's homes, which was barely enough for him and his sister to eat.

Occasionally they were discovered, but most of the time they just received a beating.

Later, for some unknown reason, his previous methods failed repeatedly and he was caught frequently.

When the rich people caught him, they no longer beat him severely, but sent him to the government, where he was imprisoned for two days each time.

The tattoo was first behind the ear, then on the left and right arms, and finally on the face.

The last time, 37 came out of prison and found out that his sister was dead.

His sister was raped and toyed with to death.

It was his first murder, when he was ten years old.

After being imprisoned for murder, 37 was sent to a place where he was said to be serving.

There were many people there, both men and women, old and young. The only thing they had in common was that they all had tattoos on their faces and had killed people.

Later, Wang Yong came and said that he couldn't bear it and wanted to take away a few people.

There were five other people walking with 37, and they were named in order.

They call Wang Yong "Father", obey his orders, and sacrifice everything for him.

37 said angrily: "We all think we are lucky. What about the secret guards? At least we have enough food and warmth. It's just a different way of living. It's good to be alive."

Gao Wenyan asked: "You have never doubted it?"

"Some people raised questions, but their voices were quickly silenced. Gradually, no one mentioned it again."

Chu Xu tapped his fingers on the table, and after a while, he asked, "How many of you are there?"

"There were 50 people in the beginning, but many have died over the years. Now there are only about [-] people left."

He smiled: "I actually sent out 20 people together. Wang Yongguo was really afraid that I would discover his secret."

"There should be people among you who have been specially arranged by Wang Yong. Those who take the lead in suppressing doubts are the ones he uses to monitor and manage you."

Chu Xu knelt down and spoke very slowly, slow enough for him to remember.

"So, you can't incite easily, otherwise you will be the first to die. You must keep things quiet and let everyone's doubts surface. In this way, if you don't say it, everyone will think the opposite. "

37 at a loss: "Then what should I do?"

"Is there anyone in the secret guard whom you trust?"

"Yes, 21 saved me once."

Chu Xu's eyes were bright, and Gao Wenyan knew that he was sure.

"Where is 21 from? In other words, where was he imprisoned?"

"Wu Ping Town."

"Okay, on the top floor of Chao'an Temple in the capital, you can see the Flashy Building facing south. In ten days, you will take 21 there."

37 became wary in his eyes, and he asked: "How do I know if you are lying to me? Do you want me to frame Wang Yong?"

"Am I lying to you? Don't you already know it?"

Chu Xu stood up slowly and dusted himself off.

"Besides, if Wang Yong falls, you will be free."

"Don't you yearn for it?"

37 His eyes flickered. He had never thought that this road would not end in darkness.

The corners of Chu Xu's lips raised, a smile that he was determined to win.
