Zhang Yuehui stood on the roof of Huachao Pavilion and looked out. At night, Lidu Mansion was shrouded in ink, with only the southeast corner brightly lit.
There is the Shipping Department.
In this huge city, plans and accidents are always happening against the clock.
He was so thoughtful that he did not expect that someone would confess the information that the leader of Bingzhusi was in the Shipping Department at this juncture.
Wanyan Puruo is the catalyst. Her arrival represents the will of the royal power. Daqi's ministers will work harder to fight for control of the city.
For the first time, Zhang Yuehui felt helpless in his heart.
He who once wanted to destroy was fearless. He had nothing to fear, the worst that could happen was death. But now he has a weakness. This powerlessness came from the fact that he began to crawl on this land like everyone else.
If Wanyan Puruo forced him to stand aside, he knew that he was going against his will.
But where does his heart want to go? He didn't have an answer. It is impossible for a rebellious person like him to suddenly develop a heart that is righteous to his family and country.
More, just for Nan Yi.
He said that giving all the Return Hall to Bingzhusi was just a word game. What he wanted was to fly away with Nan Yi. Without him, Gui Lai Tang would be an empty shell, and anyone who wanted it could take it.
There was a slight movement behind him, it was a woman's light and cautious steps. She was not an ordinary female messenger, nor could she be Wanyan Puruo.
He calmly touched the ring, and the hidden weapon on it was ready to pop out at any time. He looked back warily, and what he saw was Nan Yi. He suspected that he had seen it wrong. The wind swayed the lantern, and her shadow swayed, falling on him, and he had a sense of reality.
"Zhang Yue, please help me."
She spoke before he could. She had been running all the way here, her bun was messy, and her broken hair brushed her eyebrows, looking a bit pitiful.
To be able to make her take the initiative to look for him, and to be able to lower her body, it must not be an easy thing to ask for.
Zhang Yuehui rarely calmed down: "Speak slowly."
"Song Muchuan is in danger. Xie Queshan was taken away by Husha. He left this note and asked me to come find you."
Nan Yi didn't shy away from anything. She guessed that Zhang Yuehui knew everything she should know, so she handed over the note.
This thin piece of paper is a bit hot to touch.
——Xie Queshan asked Nan Yi to come to him and Zhang Yue came back to rescue Song Muchuan.
The whole story was full of absurdity and weirdness, as people who couldn't get along were forced to get together.
But the person in front of him was Nan Yi, so Zhang Yuehui took it over and unfolded it to take a look.
Just one word: a fish that slipped through the net.
Zhang Yuehui resisted the urge to yell - if you thank Queshan Dafan, if you write a few more words and explain your plan more clearly, he will consider doing a favor and selling Nan Yi a favor.
But he reacted in a blink of an eye. Xie Queshan didn't think he would help at all, so he couldn't tell her so clearly. He wrote a few ambiguous words, but in fact he just wanted to keep Nan Yi safe.
He felt a little sour in his heart.
For the first time, he felt that Xie Queshan was really a thing.
Nan Yi stared at Zhang Yuehui anxiously. He had read the word "西" over and over again several times.
"What does Xie Queshan mean?" She finally couldn't help but ask.
Zhang Yuehui actually had a vague guess, but he didn't want to think too deeply about it. It was too risky. If he took a step towards it, he would be shattered into pieces. Wanyan Puruo had already warned him.
He only replied regretfully: "I didn't understand."
Nan Yi was disappointed for a moment, and a stubbornness quickly surfaced: "It's impossible, you must know."
It is impossible for Xie Queshan to do useless things. If this word "West" is handed over to Zhang Yuehui, there must be something for him.
Zhang Yuehui thought to himself that he was a shameless person anyway. Xie Queshan had already sent people here, so it was very reasonable for him to go with the flow and take people away by force.
But he just stood there, doing nothing. There were two villains fighting in his mind.
Nan Yi became anxious, took out a bracelet from his sleeve, and held it up to Zhang Yuehui.
"If you do me this favor, I will wear the bracelet you gave me."
Zhang Yuehui didn't expect that Nan Yi would take this as a condition. He subconsciously thought about that good possibility, and his heart suddenly beat violently. His thoughts stopped and he asked a stupid question. : "What does it mean to wear a bracelet?"
"What do you think it means?"
Nan Yi came prepared and threw the question back.
Zhang Yuehui was speechless for a moment, and understood in a blink of an eye.
It certainly wasn't what he meant anyway. The wonderful thing is that she admitted nothing and denied nothing. As long as there is a slight chance, he will climb up the pole, who told him to owe her.
Zhang Yuehui was once again forced to get to know Nan Yi again. He felt as if he had been defeated, using his previous moves, even in his shameless style.
Nan Yi is a person with strong learning ability. She quickly absorbs outstanding qualities from those she comes into contact with.
For example, Xie Queshan was cunning and Zhang Yue was shameless. Then give it back to them while learning and using it.
All the pretentiousness of romance can be discarded in the face of major events. As long as she can force Zhang Yue to come back and help now, she can wear ten bracelets. She didn't care what Zhang Yuehui thought, whether she thought this was a sign of a reunion - she didn't say anything. Afterwards, everyone insisted on breaking it apart. The bracelet was just a bracelet. When you gave it, you only said it was a gift, but you didn't say it was a token of love.
He left a bracelet indistinctly, which she had been thinking about for several years. Now she is using it to make a fuss about saving people. It's not too much at all.
Zhang Yuehui also knew that she was openly using him, but he just did it. He really had no choice.
Those who want to force things have to ask hard, sincerely and sincerely, and the stone will open.
He admitted it.
Zhang Yuehui sighed, lowered his eyes and took Nan Yi's hand, sliding the bracelet onto her wrist.
"You wait here for me to come back. Don't run around, otherwise you will cause trouble for me."
Zhang Yue's answer was more refreshing than she expected, and Nan Yi's nervousness finally relaxed a little.
"good."
After saying that, Zhang Yuehui jumped down from the roof with his body as light as a swallow, like a graceful banished immortal.
This kid can actually do Qinggong. How many things did he lie to her? Nan Yi held back the curse words in his mouth.
What Xie Queshan told me was finally done.
If these two extremely smart people join forces, they will always have a better chance of winning than ordinary people, right?
Nan Yi knew that there was only so much she could do. All that's left is to wait.
At this moment, a group of Qi soldiers passed by on the street below the building.
"The general has an order for us to support the Ship Department, so hurry up and follow."
Nan Yi pricked up his ears and listened, thinking something in his mind.
——
Before Xie Queshan entered the Shipping Department, he was searched and the weapons and sharp weapons he was carrying were removed.
Walking around the screen wall of the official office, the courtyard was full of craftsmen and clerks. Usha gave everyone paper and pen, asking them to identify the leader of Bingzhusi. Those who refused to write were tortured, and those who were identified were killed on the spot. For a time, the Shipping Department became a purgatory on earth, with endless wailing.
Xie Queshan's eyes swept across the crowd, and there was no Song Muchuan among them.
After passing through the hanging flower door, I saw a small pavilion that was badly burned. The fire had been extinguished, but thick smoke still filled the air.
"Do you think this is strange? Just when I was about to check the Shipping Department, the warehouse of the Shipping Department caught fire and all the files were burned."
"Have you found the person who set the fire?"
While Xie Queshan responded, he glanced around and found that the darkness of the entire western courtyard was full of ambushes.
"Young Master Queshan also thinks it was man-made? I think so too, but the cause of the fire was just the collapse of a candlestick that had been in disrepair... There was no one in the cabinet at that time. I have to say, it was really a brilliant job. ah."
Usha laughed and pushed open the half-burned door.
Song Muchuan was sitting in front of the table in the ruins, wearing a white robe stained with dust. The moonlight filtered in from the burned-through roof, giving him an astonishing feeling of falling. His hands were tied behind his back, and there was a pen and paper spread out in front of him. There was no word on the paper.
He didn't write down anyone's name, but Qi Ren didn't execute him, just tied him to a chair behind his back.
"Mr. Queshan, is this Mr. Song your old friend?"
Xie Queshan and Song Muchuan looked at each other from a distance.
"We have been strangers for a long time." Xie Queshan said calmly.
"That'll be easy." Husha pulled out a dagger from his waist and handed it to Xie Queshan in a sinister tone.
"He is the leader of Bingzhusi, you kill him."
"Didn't you ask me to interrogate him?" Xie Queshan turned a blind eye to the dagger in front of him, staring at Usha calmly and sharply.
"Why, Mr. Queshan is unwilling to kill?" The smile on Hu Sha's face suddenly disappeared, leaving only a creepy murderous look. The tip of the dagger was pointed at Xie Queshan's heart and gently poked him.
"It's a serious crime to protect members of the Bingzhusi Party! Or are you also in the same party?"
Xie Queshan laughed and took the dagger from Husha's hand: "If we were in the same party, wouldn't General Husha have made great achievements?"
"So, I have to ask Mr. Queshan to help me with this matter. Whether I can make a great contribution depends on you two."
Usha walked towards Song Muchuan and loosened the rope from his hand.
"Of course, for the sake of fairness... If Mr. Song is willing to identify Mr. Queshan as a member of the Bingzhusi Party, you can live."
Song Muchuan's eyes finally had some waves, and he looked at Xie Queshan in disbelief.
What a drama of cannibalism.
Xie Queshan smiled, he finally understood that Hu Sha was not targeting Song Muchuan at all, but him.
If he didn't kill Song Muchuan, there would be a problem with his position, but if he really killed Song Muchuan... the ambush soldiers outside would swarm him, hold him down, and accuse him of murder and silence.
At that time, they said that the Shipping Department was a trap set up by Usha. In order to lure the snake out of its hole, whoever made any move would be a traitor.
But here are people from Usha, and no one in Xiequeshan can argue.
At this time, Nan Yi had already changed into Qi Bing's clothes and slipped into the Shipping Department, lying on the opposite roof to observe. The door of that room was wide open, and the voices inside could be heard clearly.
Nan Yi was anxious. She also saw the ambush below, and immediately understood that no matter whether Xie Queshan killed Song Muchuan or not, this was a dead end.
She noticed that Xie Queshan's wrist holding the dagger turned slightly - even though she was some distance away, as if she was sensing it, she instantly received Xie Queshan's intention.
He wants to kill Usha!
But there were ambushes down there. How could he get out after he killed Usha?
Did he want to trade himself for Song Muchuan? !
What about Zhang Yuehui? Why does he want Zhang Yue to go back? The situation here is so urgent, the arrow is on the string, and everything is happening in an instant. What can be done outside to affect this place?
