Chapter 485 Where to Escape (2)
How can the emperor issue orders?

Once the order is issued, everyone in the world knows that Duke Huguo is about to rebel.It is inevitable that some rebels from all over the country will take the opportunity to cause chaos. When the time comes, the flames will be ignited, can the emperor be busy?
Besides, the eyeliner sent by the emperor to look around Duke Huguo's mansion has never noticed anything unusual.

After hearing that Fu Zhongping's men might release a fleeing team out of the south gate, the emperor's eyeliner began to suspect that there was something wrong with his eyes.

These eyeliners were divided into five black shadows, which surrounded the Duke Protector's Mansion from five directions in all directions, crossed the high wall of the Duke Protector's Mansion, and then sneaked into the Duke Protector's Mansion.

After entering the so-called heavily guarded Duke Protector's Mansion, these people were suddenly taken aback. They saw them walking back and forth in the Protector's Mansion, but there was no one in the corridor or in the courtyard. The door and the things in the room were neatly arranged and did not move at all, but there was no one in sight.The entire people in the Duke Protector's Mansion seemed to have evaporated from the world, no one was seen, only things remained, like a haunted house.

At night, the door of Duke Protector's Mansion will not be guarded. This is the new rule of the mansion implemented after Zhu Li came back.These eyeliners, as long as you think about the loss of the king without a sword last time, you only know that you have fallen into the trap set by others when you enter the mansion of the protector. The guards of the Duke's Mansion absolutely dare not rush into the Duke's Mansion. They believe that the Duke's Mansion has set up a net in the Prince's Mansion, and they don't want to be fooled like the King Without a Sword.In the end, it was precisely because of this that they thought that the silence in the Duke Protector's mansion meant that there was no movement or vision.

Now, it was discovered that the people in the Duke Protector's Mansion might have escaped, and these five people got together anxiously.

"What to do, Great Elder, you said that these people have left, but it doesn't seem like it, because they haven't taken any of the valuable things." Among the five dark shadows, the shortest old man took out A Yuci Ruyi just found in a certain room, unbelievable, gesturing incoherently.

They just searched briefly, and they have already found that every valuable thing in the house is placed as it is.According to the logic of ordinary people, if you are running away, you must take the most valuable things with you first, and keep them for the benefit of others.

"People say that Duke Protector is a weird person. It seems that he is really a strange person." These words came from among the five dark shadows, another tall and thin old man with a white beard, who looked like a fairy Daogu posture.

Speaking of which, these five shadows are all old men, each with their own advantages and disadvantages in appearance, some are short like squirrels, some are like Taoist priests, some are crooked like Mr. Tortoise with a tortoise shell on their backs, and some are fat. Like a tonnage-level elephant, the only old man who looks normal seems to be the boss of this group.The rest of the old men therefore called him the Great Elder.

The Great Elder looked at the gold and silver treasures that they found. He had seen all of these when he walked through the room in the Duke Protector's mansion.So he said to the other brothers: "The Lord Protector's territory is in Beiyan. Some are people, and some are gold and silver treasures. He doesn't like these things. It's normal not to take them away. If you take them away, it's not a guardian. It’s not troublesome to take it out because it’s not troublesome to take it out? These things can’t be loaded in several cars, and walking all the way, you have to be seen and transported, and you can’t eat or use, isn’t it tiring?”

"The Great Elder is saying that the Duke Protector really escaped?"

"Nonsense! People who lead soldiers to fight, don't they understand the principle of traveling lightly? I checked the kitchen when I passed by just now. The food in it was clean and nothing was left. All they brought was food and water. It is clear that he fled all the way to Beiyan."

"But—" asked the fourth elder who looked like a squirrel, "The capital guards said they left from the south gate."

From the south gate to Beiyan, wouldn't it be a long detour.Is the Lord Protector stupid?Even if he thought that the guards at the south gate should be the most lax, but after going out from the south gate, he had to go through the eyes of the capital army before he could go to the road from the north gate to Beiyan.

"The one that went out from the south gate, I think, is probably the strategy of the Lord Protector to attack the west, making people think that they escaped from the south, but they didn't. However, when the pursuing army rushed to the south, the Lord Protector might Already on the way to Beiyan." After pondering for a while, the Great Elder stared at the ground with deep eyes and came to a conclusion.

"If it's a sudden attack, I think the people from the Admiral's Mansion have gone out through the south gate. Shouldn't they be informed to come back?"

As soon as the fourth elder said this, he was called a fool by the other old men.

What time is it now, when all parties and factions are busy arresting people for meritorious service, whoever arrests people first will make the greatest contribution in front of the emperor.Who will tip off the competition?It must have been important to catch the fugitive first and bring him back to the emperor when the people in the admiral's mansion jumped in the wrong direction and messed up.

"Fortunately, we have something in our hands that the people in the Admiral's Mansion don't have." The First Elder took out a roll of parchment from his sleeve.

The eyes of the other four old men all shone like wolves looking at this roll of parchment.This is the key to their success or failure this time.With this thing, the people in Duke Protector's Mansion must be unable to escape.

No one expected that when the First Elder prepared to unfold the parchment and was studying Duke Protector's escape route with his brothers, a suspicious voice came from the dark courtyard.

"Can you be sure that the map you got is real?"

The moment the mysterious male voice came out from the yard, the five old men were startled for an instant, and immediately dispersed to alert their surroundings.The Great Elder tightly guarded the map in his hand, and let out a roar in his throat: "Who? Which hero is spying on others from behind? Come out!"

The rest of the wind in the yard whizzed through the bare branches and bushes, like howling a wolf, and the shrill and sharp sound seemed to cut off people's eardrums.

In such a sound and scene like a ghost movie, when the beautiful and joyful male voice came out of the wind like a devil's cry, it didn't make anyone feel happy. Instead, everyone's pores were open and their hair stood on end The whole body tensed up.

"The Great Elder's words are really interesting. This is the Prince's Mansion, and the Great Elder broke into someone's mansion without permission. How did it become someone else spying on the Great Elder's work in the Prince's Mansion?"

The Great Elder's face turned red suddenly, and he pretended to be serious and raised his voice and said: "The five of us are the emperor's servants, and we came to the Duke Protector's Mansion to do business under the emperor's order."

"Oh? So, the emperor sent someone to break into Duke Hu's house? Why did the emperor do this? Does the emperor want to arrest Duke Hu? Even if the emperor wants to arrest Duke Hu, wouldn't it be enough to send troops here? Why are you sneaking here? , let the five monsters break into the Duke Huguo's mansion in the middle of the night like thieves?"
