Fengmou Jiangshan

Chapter 128

Su Jun completed the task and went back to the capital all the way north.

In Heping Town, thirty miles away from Zhaifeng City, Su Jun went into an inn, guessing that he would return to Zhaifeng City just when the city gate was closed. Fang left the inn, wearing an ordinary blue-gray gown, and his complexion turned sallow. Then he went out, got on his horse, and galloped to Zhaifeng City.

His estimation was just right, just in time for the last group of people to enter the city, Su Jun turned his head, looked at the soldiers who were driving the crowd and shouted "Quick, quick!", and smiled unconsciously.

He found a small restaurant in a secluded place, sat down in an unobtrusive corner, ordered a plate of peanuts, a plate of tofu skin, a plate of sauced beef, a bowl of rice, and a small pot of wine, without saying a word. Eating silently, looking at the gradually darkening sky from time to time.

Tonight, he has to do something, and he will return to the palace to report to Gu Qinghua tomorrow.

The sky is getting late, the night is changing from light to dark, and the small restaurant has experienced a process from deserted to lively and then deserted. At this time, except for Su Jun, there are only two tables left. yawning, waiting for the door to close.

Su Jun raised his head and looked out, the moonlight was extremely pale, although he couldn't see his fingers, but it was almost the same, his heart tightened, he got up to pay the bill, and walked out of the small restaurant.

Su Jun discerned the direction, picked up the path, and went to the southeast of the Yizheng Palace without hesitation. Then, he took off his green shirt in a deserted three-foot alley around the palace, revealing the black night clothes inside.He skillfully took out a piece of black cloth, covered the lower half of his face, tied a knot at the back of his head, and leaped briskly into the palace of the Prince Yizheng without a sound.

The royal mansion is rich and noble, although no one came to the secluded back garden at this time, the stone lamp holders beside the road were still lighted with light.Su Jun hid in a clump of dark thick bushes, took out a paper map from his bosom, and looked at it carefully in a dim light.

In order to obtain a real and detailed map of the government palace, Su Jun spent a lot of time dealing with Mu Tiannan under the guise of Gu Qinghua.

It has been three years since he came to Zhai Fengcheng, and there should be some clues about what his father explained!If he didn't do it, his father might not be able to wait to come by himself.

Su Jun thought, although the first emperor ordered his father not to enter Zhai Fengcheng for life, but he was a famous general in the two dynasties after all, if he found a reason to write a letter to the present to ask for an order to return to the capital, plus his current relationship with Qing'er, Qing'er may not be willing to refute his reply.At that time, the King of Political Affairs will be vigilant, and it will not be good for Qing'er!
Su Jun's fingertips gradually moved on the map, and finally settled on a two-story square building with double eaves in the northeast corner.He raised his head and squinted his eyes slightly to make calculations. With the cover of various flower and tree buildings, corridors and rockeries, he approached the outside of the courtyard of the square building in less than a quarter of an hour.

This is the secluded residence in the inner study of King Yizheng, and all his shady things are hidden in the building.

At this moment, the courtyard was brightly lit, but there was no light in the building. It seemed that the King of Political Affairs was not here this night.Su Jun felt relieved: Otherwise, his trip would be in vain!

Su Jun asked Mu Tiannan about the situation of the guards in the Yizheng Palace in a roundabout way, and with the information he had, he silently stood behind the bushes on the outer wall of the Youhuang Residence, and calculated the time for the guards inside to change shifts.

The sneaking into Youhuangju went smoothly unexpectedly. When Su Jun hid himself in the corridor on the second floor, he was even a little dazed when he looked at the energetic, tall and strong guards below.After thinking about it, King Yizheng is so powerful that he is the first noble person in the Daxi Dynasty besides Qing'er. For so many years, there has never been any incident of breaking into the palace of the Prince Yizheng at night, let alone a secluded residence. Well, these people's patrols are just routine, so naturally they are not so enthusiastic!
Having figured it out, Su Jun suddenly felt relieved, and the corner of his mouth twitched into a chuckle. Shi Shiran gently opened the closed red lacquer carved door, and flashed in quickly.

Su Jun looked at the room. There were three rooms in the room that were not completely separated. Except that the things were more expensive and valuable, they were no different from ordinary study rooms.Su Jun searched anxiously for any hidden compartments. He searched everywhere behind the bookshelves and cabinets, behind the murals, and on the floor, but found nothing.He thought for a while, went down the stairs to the lower floor, and searched carefully one by one.

After exploring the four walls, he crawled on the thick felt carpet and patted the carpet bit by bit, trying to find out if there was anything unusual under the carpet. If there was a basement underneath, there would always be an exit. The sound here is different from the sound on other ground.

The carpet was thick, soft and spongy, and it sounded like a lot of effort. Su Jun was so annoyed that he couldn't help cursing secretly.Cursing or scolding, he still did not give up. This is the most stupid way, but it is also the most effective way.

When he went back and forth four times, he finally heard a strange sound three feet away from the low couch near the west wall.Su Jun cheered up, and buckled again, still with the same voice, and finally determined that it was here.

He was about to lift the carpet in a hurry, but he couldn't help but smiled wryly and remained silent.

It turned out that the carpet was a whole piece, which was laid together with the ground, and there was nothing wrong with it. There were heavy furniture on the surrounding walls that pressed the carpet.Not to mention that he couldn't remove all kinds of furniture in a short period of time. Even if he could, it would inevitably leave marks on the carpet when restored, or it would not match the marks on the carpet made by the corners of the original furniture. The vigilance of the king of politics.Su Jun couldn't guarantee whether the thing he wanted was in the basement, he didn't dare to bet on the event of it being discovered.

Su Jun had no choice but to let it go with a sigh. Fortunately, he finally found out such a place, and the trip was not in vain!Taking advantage of another group of guards changing shifts, he gently fled out of Youhuangju.

Su Jun was unwilling to give up this rare opportunity, coupled with the unwillingness in his heart, he simply wanted to explore other places in the Yizheng palace, and there might be some unexpected gains!
Unexpectedly, two hours later, just as he was about to leave and passed a rockery in the back garden, a tabby cat ran by and kicked over a flower pot on the rockery, and the crisp sound attracted the guards who happened to be patrolling past Su Jun couldn't hide from the light, and the long shadow had nowhere to hide under the light.

"Who's over there? Come out!" The guards on patrol were startled and immediately shouted loudly.

Su Jun secretly groaned, he casually picked up a stone from the ground and threw it between the branches and leaves next to the other path, and he ran away soundlessly in the opposite direction.

At this moment, one more second is one second.If it falls into the hands of the king of politics, the king of politics will not take the opportunity to get rid of him!Or maybe he thinks that he is a rare commodity that can save his life, but he thinks, in that case, it is better to get rid of him!
Su Jun didn't expect the guards of the Yizheng palace to be so fast. He had just jumped onto the wall, but there was already a rain of locusts and arrows flying behind him.

"Ah! Run away!"

"No reason!"

"Open the door and chase after me!"

"You two go back and report, block the alleys on all sides, and search for me inch by inch!"

While speaking, the side door opened with a bang, and countless people rushed out holding torches, chasing after Su Jun.

This kind of thing has never happened in Yizheng Palace since the establishment of the palace. Let alone assassins sneaking into the palace, no one dares to approach the palace even if it is so easy!The guards in the mansion were all furious and vowed to catch this thief!
Su Jun's feet were blowing towards the depths of the alley, and although the voices behind him were noisy, most of them reached his ears. He couldn't help but smile bitterly. If he didn't leave as soon as possible, he would be unable to fly when the people from the Yizheng Palace locked the four passages. !

He believed that, with the power of the King of Discussion, he would definitely be able to search every inch of it.

Su Jun's feet were like the wind.Fortunately, he has not been exposed yet, and there is no tail behind him.However, as long as the other party has the right manpower and is surrounded by three layers inside and outside, he still cannot escape.

His advantage is time, but this advantage is gradually ebbing and flowing, and will soon be transformed into the opponent's advantage.

Su Jun was still half a beat behind, and changed several exits in a row. From a distance, there were already flickering flames and shadows. He had to shrink back and turn back again and again, and he was almost spotted once or twice.

Fortunately, there were so many alleys, big and small, criss-crossing and dense like a spider's web, and those people still couldn't find him in a while.

The shouts and footsteps behind him gradually approached, and it seemed that there was a faint fire in the sky above. Su Jun couldn't help but stop and listen carefully. There is no way out!He gritted his teeth, ran forward for a while, jumped lightly, and jumped into a high wall.

Landing lightly, there is a large lake in front of you, facing the water there are towers and water pavilions, and the tops of the surrounding undulating shrubs form a line in the dark night, undulating, like a lace bordered by the lake.The deep black lake surface reflected a very shallow moonlight, and there was a faint fragrance of lotus, which had a strange fragrance.

From the looks of it, it was the garden of a rich family. Su Jun felt a little relieved. It seemed that this family was extraordinary to be able to occupy such a beautiful piece of precious land in Zhaifeng City, where every inch of land was expensive.For such a family, the king of political affairs will have some concerns about face, right?Invisibly, it can be regarded as covering him.

Su Jun was about to find an inconspicuous and convenient small pavilion to hide in, when he suddenly raised his head, he found a bright light not far in front of him.He tightened his body, held his breath and shrank into the dark place, waiting for the man to pass by before coming out.

Unexpectedly, the man stood there like a wooden clay sculpture, holding a red gauze lantern, without moving a step forward.

The side door not far away was faintly slapped, and occasionally there was a dog barking.Su Jun suddenly realized that they were trying to drive him into this blind spot, but he escaped unexpectedly.They only had to think a little to see where he had fled.

Su Jun's eyes showed murderous intent, and at this moment, he couldn't care less!
"Hero? Hero? Hero?" An old man's tentative call came from in front of Su Jun. He was startled, and looked through the thin gaps in the bushes and flowers. The old man was actually facing his direction.

"Sir, my master has no malicious intentions, please show yourself!" the old man said again.

Su Jun froze, his pupils widened in surprise.

"Sir, my master has no malicious intentions." The old man's voice sounded a little anxious.

Su Jun thought for a while, then tore off the black cloth covering his face, got up and walked out calmly, bowed his hands to the old man and saluted: "It's really helpless to disturb the house late at night, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! May I ask your master?" yes--"

The old man smiled at him, raised the lantern forward, and said kindly: "This is the mansion of Prince Lijun."

"What!" Su Jun was taken aback, and looked at the lantern. Sure enough, on the lantern covered with red gauze, facing him was the word Li!
Su Jun suddenly became vigilant.

Everyone knows that King Lijun is wise and protects himself. He knows who he has offended, so how could he protect him?This is not what a wise person would do!

However, he is a prince after all, so he wouldn't make such a plan to arrest him and ask for credit in front of the king of politics, right?

Su Jun thought for a while and decided to believe him, so he smiled at the old man, nodded politely and said, "So it's from the prince's house, so I'm even more sorry!"

"Don't say that, come with me!" The old man smiled politely.

So he led Su Jun around the lake, out of the garden, walked through a winding corridor, entered two hanging flower doors, passed through the hallway, and came to a courtyard full of peonies and peonies.The old man led him into the front room, ordered the servant to serve tea, then smiled at him and said: "Sir, wait here, our lord may not come over for a while!"

"Thank you, my lord, for saving me!" Su Jun saluted with gratitude.He understood that those guards clearly guessed that he had entered here in all likelihood, and they couldn't open the door after knocking for a long time. The King of Political Affairs would definitely come to visit him in person, and King Lijun would naturally have to deal with him before he could come here!

Su Jun's expectations were right. The guards of the Palace of Discussing Political Affairs knocked and kicked the side door for a long time in the back garden, and they couldn't help being angry when they saw that there was no news inside. They all yelled "Fuck!" Come in, and even threatened to beat up this ignorant master first after coming in!
Unexpectedly, as soon as the words fell, someone from inside spoke up, and a low and rude voice yelled: "Grandma, which dog is not tied properly? This is it? Why is it barking in the middle of the night! I don't know if this is the Prince Li's mansion?" If you don’t get out, I’ll take the rope and tie it into a string and take it to the dog meat shop to chop it up!”

The guards outside were taken aback, and after a closer look, they realized that this place was indeed behind the Lijun Prince's Mansion, and there was a sudden silence.

Although King Li Jun is not as flattering as Prince Yizheng, and they also look down on this timid and fearful prince, but he is a prince after all, and they will never dare to forcibly climb over the wall to enter if he does not open the door!At least, if you want to break through, you have to ask your own prince to show you first!

The leading guard was very annoyed, and immediately shouted angrily: "You, you, follow me back and ask our lord for instructions. You guys go to inform the brothers elsewhere that the assassin has been found, and I will guard the rest here. , Follow me to death!"

"Yes, Commander Wei!" Everyone agreed loudly, especially those who were sent to inform the other brothers, and ran away immediately.
