Chapter 114 A person curled up in the corner of the bed
Shaoqing’s mansion in Dali Temple.
Crossing the crane shadow in the cold pond, the night was as cold as water, Yan Shu woke up from his sleep in the middle of the night, and could no longer fall asleep, so he put on his clothes and got up.
Tomorrow is the day he will set off back to Baidi City.
In the past half a month, Yan Shu has inquired about Baidicheng in many ways, but to no avail.
Anxiety lingered in Yan Shu’s heart, and he couldn’t go away for a long time.
He hadn’t had a good rest for days.
It was already autumn, the weather was cold and the white dew turned into frost, Yan Shu became sick with thoughts, tossed and turned, and simply got up and went to the courtyard to admire the moon.
He walked to the yard and stood for a while when he suddenly heard footsteps behind him.
Yan Shu turned his head, saw the person coming, and hurriedly saluted: “Foster father.”
“Shu’er, why do you sleepless in the middle of the night, looking at the sky here.” Qin Jueming walked slowly and asked with a smile.
“Does the adoptive father have news about Baidicheng? Has Prince Shen sent a letter?” Yan Shu asked anxiously.
Qin Jueming shook his head.
Yan Shu’s eyes dimmed for a moment.
Qin Jueming saw that he was in a wrong mood and asked, “Shu’er, what’s wrong with you?”
Yan Shu was silent for a moment, then looked up at the round of flying mirrors in the sky, and said, “After my father was wronged and killed, my foster father taught me to let go of my remaining resentment and realize Lan Yin early, but I have ten years of obsession to repay the dynasty. Hatred, I didn’t understand why at first, but recently, I understand a little bit.”
Qin Jueming looked surprised, then shook his head helplessly: “Shu’er, rest early, cough, cough…”
Halfway through his words, Qin Jueming suddenly covered his lips and coughed.
“Foster father?” Yan Shu was startled and stepped forward, trying to take Qin Jueming’s pulse.
“Nothing.” Qin Jueming pushed Yan Shu’s hand away, “I’ve lived in Shuofang for a long time, and I’m a little uncomfortable with the capital. Don’t worry, just go to sleep and leave tomorrow, so recharge your batteries.”
Seeing that Qin Jueming insisted that his body was not in the way, Yan Shu had to bow and back down and go to the wing.
Qin Jueming was silent on the spot, looked up at the bright moon for a moment, and then returned to the house, leaving only the pale moonlight.
On the second day, Qin Jueming and Yan Shu led an army of 3,000 imperial guards and headed for Baidi City.
The dry road changed the water road without stopping, but within a few days, they traveled to another town near Baidi City to settle down.
Zhizhou had been waiting in this town for many days. He helped settle the imperial army and handed over the map of Baidi City to Qin Jueming and Yan Shu.
After several discussions, Qin Jueming decided to lead his troops into Baidi City early tomorrow morning, and sent people to guard the exits of various gates of Baidi City to prevent the rebels from escaping in the chaos.
In Qin Jueming’s view, although Han Ya and Shen Chao sealed the city, they still had no military power in their hands. Some of them were only dozens of jackdaw assassins. How could these people be compared with the three thousand imperial army?
After all, Han Ya is already a turtle in a urn.
Everything was ready and everything went smoothly.
Yan Shu suddenly discovered that if he could successfully enter Baidi City tomorrow, he would be able to see Li Changtian.
I don’t know how Li Changtian is doing these days, and whether he is injured…
But Yanshu felt a little uneasy again, expecting that it would not be so satisfactory.
Sure enough, early the next morning, Qin Jueming suddenly ordered the troops to stay put, and there was no other order.
Yan Shu went to ask why.
Qin Jueming sighed deeply, took out a secret letter he had just received, and handed it to Yan Shu.
On the secret letter, is a shocking news.
Han Ya secretly crossed 3,000 Beidi soldiers to the Central Plains and hid them in Baidi City! !
What shocked Yan Shu and Qin Jueming even more was that.
Han Ya actually threatened the lives of thousands of innocent civilians in Baidi City!
He said that if Qin Jueming dared to lead his troops into Baidi City, he would immediately order Beidi soldiers to break into Baidi City from Tianque Villa. By then, blood would be floating in Baidi City, and corpses would be scattered everywhere!
Qin Jueming never expected that Han Ya would be so mad and unethical, and for a while, he did not dare to use the army and thought about countermeasures.
White dew, cold wind chills, leaves fall to know autumn.
It was when the situation was stalemate that Yan Shu suddenly had a plan.
He found Qin Jueming and said, “Foster father, I know there is a trail that can sneak into Tianque Villa from the outskirts of Baidi City.”
“Oh?” Qin Jueming was surprised and quickly asked Yan Shu to elaborate.
Yan Shu then marked the route he used to escape from Tianque Villa on the map in detail, and told many details along the way.
“Maybe we can choose someone from the Imperial Forest Army who is good at climbing the wall with light skills, sneak into the Tianque Mountain Villa from the small road cave in the dead of night, and catch the thief first and the king, as long as we can catch Han Ya, the rest are just A plate of loose sand.” Yan Shu said his plan.
Qin Jueming immediately considered the drawbacks: “But it was discovered that you were running away, so Han Ya and the others must know the existence of this road. It is very likely that this road has been destroyed or blocked.”
Yan Shu replied, “Foster father, it’s better to sit down and walk, instead of exploring the road, how do you know if the road has been destroyed?”
Qin Jueming questioned again: “Even if you did arrive at Tianque Villa, where the area is vast and heavily guarded, how could you find Han Ya and successfully take him out of Tianque Villa?”
Yan Shu fell silent, and after a long time, he raised his head and said softly, “There is always a bet.”
Qin Jueming stared at Yan Shu, and suddenly smiled: “Gamble? Shu’er, this is not like what you would say. Let me ask you, is your strategy really just to catch the king of thieves?”
“I…” Yan Shu lowered his eyes, “No, I still want to save people.”
“Li Changtian?” Qin Jueming asked.
“Yes.” Yan Shu nodded and waited for Qin Jueming to scold him, accusing him of being mixed with selfish desires and disregarding the overall situation.
But Qin Jueming just smiled helplessly, he sighed, put his hands behind his back, and said, “Shu’er, for the past ten years, I’ve been betting every day, betting that I can survive and bet that I can succeed, so sometimes , maybe it’s time to gamble.”
Yan Shu suddenly looked up at Qin Jueming.
“Actually, I know the little path you mentioned. Lord Shen Chao mentioned this path in his first secret letter to me.” Qin Jueming said.
Yan Shu was slightly surprised, “Foster father already knew there was a secret way?”
“Yes, but Han Ya has sent assassins to guard this trail day and night. As long as he intends to sneak into Tianque Villa from this trail, he will definitely be arrested.” Qin Jueming said.
Yan Shu was stunned, then he gritted his teeth lightly, showing his unwillingness.
“However…” Qin Jueming changed the subject, “Shen Chao did not come to tell us not to trespass on this road, on the contrary… He hoped that someone could throw himself into the trap.”
“What? Why?” Yan Shu was puzzled.
Because since the 3,000 Imperial Forest Army was stationed near Baidi City, Han Ya became more and more anxious. He sent letters to Bei Di and the capital many times.
Shen Chao was worried that Han Ya would be trapped and still fighting, and recklessly ordered the Beidi soldiers in Tianque Mountain Villa to directly attack Baidi City, mutilating innocent people, in order to achieve the purpose of disrupting Baidi City, the granary of the world.
Shen Chao hoped that Qin Jueming could make a bitter plan to find someone to attack Tianque Mountain Villa from the trail, and then be captured by Han Ya as a prisoner.
Yan Shu immediately understood.
It was said that he was looking for someone to pretend to be a prisoner, but no matter how he thought about it, this person was referring specifically to him.
“Master Shen Shen Chao has a plan, but he needs me to stand still for seven days. He is afraid that in these seven days, Han Ya will jump over the wall and mutilate innocent people, so he asked me to find someone…” Qin Jueming paused, no longer flickering his words. “So he hopes that you can pretend to be caught, let Han Ya think that he has poked my weakness, and relax. This is Lord Shen’s plan to slow down the army.”
“Although Lord Shen assured me that he will protect you, how can I relax and put you in danger…” Qin Jueming sighed, “That’s why I haven’t told you about it for a long time.”
“Foster father.” Yan Shu looked very calm, he said, “A gentleman is righteous, since he has established his mind for the heaven and the earth, established his destiny for the life of the people, established his own knowledge for the past saints, and established peace for all things. Although we are small pawns, we do not dare to think that Empty words ignore it, if this move can protect the peace of the people of Baidicheng Liming, it is not a pity to die.”
Qin Jueming: “…death is not a pity? Can you tell me again?”
Yan Shu: “…I will act cautiously and protect my own safety, please rest assured.”
It’s night, when the black magpies are tired, the stars hang down, and the Tianque Mountain Villa.
Suddenly the fish and dragons startled, the voices were noisy, and the lights were bright.
Half an hour later, Shen Chao hurriedly reported something to Han Ya.
Han Ya was sleeping on the couch to take a nap. Hearing something important, he got up, tidied up his clothes, and then sat on the chair of the grand master in the hall to meet Shen Chao.
“Master Han, as you expected, Qin Jueming’s righteous son came back to save people, but he was captured by the Jackdaw Assassin.” Shen Chao said.
“As I expected?” Han Ya asked slowly, holding up the teacup.
Shen Chao paused.
“I didn’t save that person’s life to be a bait.” Han Ya said calmly, tasting the tea, “But since I captured Qin Jueming’s righteous son, it is also a pleasant surprise. I hope he will be imprisoned. People have escaped, let’s go.”
Shen Chao took the order and exited the hall, frowning slightly.
Han Ya was not as happy as he had expected, instead he seemed very indifferent.
Shen Chao really couldn’t see through Han Ya’s mind. He looked at the night sky, but felt uneasy.
At this time, Yan Shu, who was acting according to the plan, was tied his hands with ropes by the jackdaw assassin, and staggered to one place.
Fang Cai, in order not to be seen as a heretic, after being surrounded by jackdaw assassins, he fought with all his strength, causing several injuries to his body.
The jackdaw assassin escorted him to an attic, which was heavily guarded, with guards everywhere, and even they were stopped from coming here.
The Jackdaw Assassin stepped forward to talk to the guard, and Yan Shu vaguely heard some words.
“Shen Wangye said… Shut up together… Take a good look at the jail… Right…”
The black-clothed assassin of the Jackdaw finished telling the guards and grabbed Yan Shu.
“Walk!”
After walking three floors up the attic, before reaching a wing, the jackdaw assassin opened the door, pushed Yan Shu in, and closed the door again.
The jackdaw assassin pushed so hard that Yan Shu’s hands were still tied behind him, unable to stabilize his body, and fell heavily to the ground.
Yan Shu was neither angry nor annoyed, stood up indifferently, and looked around.
He had thought that he would be locked in a cell full of torture instruments as he did last time.
How could it not be.
This place is more like an abandoned study. The furnishings and displays are very simple. There are wooden shelves and book urns, but there are no picture scrolls and books in the empty space. The doors and windows of the room are closed, and no moonlight can penetrate. The round table in the center of the room lights up. A red candle, a large candle, illuminated the corners of the room.
At this moment, Yan Shu discovered that there was an inner room here.
He hesitated for a moment, then slowly stepped into the inner room.
The interior is more rudimentary, with only a round table, a wooden bench and a soft tent canopy bed.
Suddenly, Yan Shu was surprised to find a person curled up in the corner of the bed.
