Chapter 572
A hint of worry floated in Mo Tingye's eyes: "The combat power of the puppets is so amazing, if Gongsun Heng wants to use the power of these puppets to train a private soldier, we will be in big trouble!"
"This, this, they are so bold?" Qi You said in disbelief.
Han Che frowned and said, "Whether it is true or not, you will know when you enter the imperial mausoleum."
But Qi You shook his head in disapproval: "I'm afraid it's not so easy to sneak into the imperial mausoleum at this time..."
"Then start with the prefect's mansion first. Regardless of whether the present Jiang Yuandao is real or not, as the prefect of Huai'an City, he will definitely have a way to enter the imperial mausoleum." Mo Tingye said in a deep voice.
Nangong Qianmo nodded: "Then it's settled. After nightfall, we will visit the eunuch's mansion at night."
After the explosion, most of the original temples and government offices in Huai'an City were destroyed in sevens and eights, so the current Taishou's Mansion is placed in the former Prince's Mansion.Fortunately, Nangong Qianmo is quite familiar with the terrain here.
The three of them followed her, carefully avoiding the guards in the prefect's mansion, and arrived outside Jiang Yuandao's study, where they vaguely heard two voices, a man and a woman, arguing about something.
Nangong Qianmo quickly gestured to the three people behind him, and the three immediately held their breath and listened with their ears up——
"What did you say? Pei Ruoshui went to Shangjing? Who allowed her to act privately?! Just going there with her skills is to expose the target in advance, something that is more than success than failure!" Jiang Yuandao's voice was furious.
The woman kept her back to the direction of the door and window, she couldn't see her face clearly, she only listened to her persuasion: "The master wants you to try to get him back, after all, Pei Ruoshui is still useful to us."
"Oh! Why should I meddle in this business?" Jiang Yuandao said disdainfully.
"You also said that Pei Ruoshui is not Princess Xuan's opponent. However, she hastily returned to Beijing this time, and she must be going for King Xuan. If we really don't care, it's only a matter of time before she falls into Princess Xuan's hands." Question. Of course there is nothing wrong with a mere Pei Ruoshui, but the puppet army is still stepping up preparations, and if the news is accidentally leaked at this critical juncture, we will fall short!"
Jiang Yuandao was silent for a while, and finally said coldly: "I can save her, but this is the last time!"
The woman seemed to want to say something more, but he interrupted impatiently: "Okay, your task is over, please leave immediately!"
The woman didn't speak any more this time, she walked to the bookshelf and gently turned an antique vase on the second floor, with a sound of "click!", a porch door opened, and the woman walked in.
The moment she turned and closed the door, Nangong Qianmo finally saw her appearance clearly through the window - this person was Gongsun Heng's confidant, Taoyao!
It seems that their guess was right. Gongsun Heng really wanted to train a puppet army, but it was not successful due to time constraints. Thinking of this, Nangong Qianmo couldn't help but frowned, and hit Qi You and Han Che With a gesture, he and Mo Tingye turned over to the eaves.
Only an extremely subtle sound of "swoosh!" was heard, and at the same time, four people attacked from different directions.
In the blink of an eye, Qi You and Han Che guarded the doors and windows, Mo Tingye quickly restrained Jiang Yuandao in the room, Nangong Qianmo took the teacup that had slipped from Jiang Yuandao's hand, gently placed it on the table, There was no splashing of tea.
"Hiss!" With a sound, Nangong Qianmo tore off a piece of skin from behind his ear, revealing a strange face.
"Tell me, who are you, and where did the real Jiang Yuandao go?" Then he motioned Mo Tingye to release his dumb acupoint.
The fake Jiang Yuandao quickly flashed a complex look in his eyes, which was quickly replaced by anger: "Who are you? What is the purpose of sneaking into the government office?!"
"This is not something you should care about. You just need to answer my question honestly."
The fake Jiang Yuandao's eyes changed slightly, and he said sharply, "You don't want to get any news from me! Come..."
Before she could ask for help, she felt a chill on her neck. Looking down, Nangong Qianmo's dagger had been attached to it at some point, and she said coldly: "You can call someone in, but only if You are sure to survive until then!"
Looking at the dagger on his neck, Jiang Yuandao struggled in his eyes, but after a brief consideration, he still chose to compromise, and he said: "My name is Chen Xing, and I am here to pretend to be Jiang Yuandao under the order of the landlord. The real Jiang Yuandao...has become one of the puppets."
"How many puppets have you trained now?" Mo Tingye asked in a deep voice.
"Counting the latest batch of people who came in, there should be ten thousand people."
"Where is Gongsun Heng now?"
"In... the underground palace."
Mo Tingye looked at Nangong Qianmo, who nodded and said to Qi You: "Send a signal to the rest of the people, prepare enough explosives within three days, and wait for orders near Mount Jiuhua."
"Yes!" Qi You replied immediately.
Glancing at the dagger hanging around his neck with a faint cold light, Chen Xing tentatively said, "You two, I've already told you everything I know. I wonder if this dagger can..."
"Stop talking nonsense!" Looking at the human skin mask that was still on the ground, Nangong Qianmo narrowed her eyes: "I ask you, is the person who changed your face is Si Xingchen?"
Chen Xing's fingers moved subconsciously, but he didn't show it on his face. He shook his head and said, "I don't know if he is the person you mentioned, but everyone calls him 'Mr. Chen'."
While speaking, Mo Tingye had already turned the mechanism Taoyao used to leave just now, and the entrance door opened again.
Nangong Qianmo narrowed his eyes and gave Han Che a look. The latter immediately sealed his internal energy, and took out a rope from his sleeve to tie Chen Xing's hands behind his back.
Still worried, Nangong Qianmo took out a pill and stuffed it into Chen Xing's mouth, forcing him to swallow it.
"Cough, cough, cough... what did you eat for me?"
"Biechangsan, if you don't want to die, be honest with me, and I will give you the antidote when you get out of the underground palace!" She put the dagger back into her waist and said, "Let's go, take us to the underground palace! "
Chen Xing's eyes moved, and there was a slight undetectable warmth in the corner of his eyes, heartbroken?
"Boss, do you want to put this mask back on for him?" Qi You picked up the mask from the ground.
Nangong Qianmo looked between him and Chen Xing, and said, "Put on this mask and change clothes with him." Among the four of them, Mo Tingye and himself were not tall enough, Han Che He's too thin, only Qi You's stature is about the same as this Chen Xing, so it's most suitable for him to pretend to be Jiang Yuandao.
Qi You was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized: "Understood!"
