King of Han Dynasty of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 207: Mixed joys and sorrows
Within the encirclement.

In an attic in the opposite direction to where Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Gaosui and Ji Gang were heading.

The windows of a high-rise attic were ajar. Lao He held a monocular telescope in his hand and observed from time to time the position in the distance where he was hurriedly attacking with a torch. A hint of gloom flashed across his wrinkled face, pointing at the people behind him. The man waved his hand and ordered in a cold voice:

"Notify me."

"The fight will take place after a cup of tea, and the battle must end within half a cup of tea."

"If I wait for you to come back here for more than half a cup of tea, my master and I will just treat you as dead and won't wait for you again before you come back."

"As for what to do next, you don't need me to teach you anymore, right?"

"And the master told me before that everyone in this family can be injured but not killed."

"Do you understand?"

This cannot be said to be ruthless or cold-blooded.

The dim butter lamp flickered in the room for a moment, and not a single human figure flickered, if it weren't for the harsh sound of opening and closing the door.

"My lord! Your lord!"

It's really unbelievable that someone is out of this room.

However, in response to such an order, the middle-aged man standing behind, wearing a smart suit and whose face could not be seen clearly, did not hesitate or hesitate at all. He made a hoarse voice and responded with conclusive words:
"The messenger is at ease."

After that, the originally closed door creaked, and a gap was revealed in an instant. Everything until it was closed happened in a flash of lightning.

"In one sentence, no matter who it is, whether it is successful or not, no one can implicate the master."

"I hope everything will develop exactly as I arranged and envisioned!"

Without any hesitation, the well-dressed middle-aged man turned around and disappeared from the doorway with a long stride, and the open door was tightly closed again.

When the middle-aged man left, the whole room suddenly became quiet. Lao He nodded towards the shadow again and continued:
"Thirteen, go to that house and keep an eye on it. If these people can't control the people inside in half a cup of tea, you can decide according to the situation. If you can help, you can help. If you can't help, you can decide what to do."

After hearing this, a sharp voice sounded from the shadow where I couldn't see my fingers, and said:
"promise!"

"Otherwise... I don't know how your Majesty, who is suspicious by nature, would guess."

In the quiet room, a trace of worry flashed through Lao He's eyes. He shook his head and murmured to himself in a low voice:

Say it.

"When I know what to do, I will never let the master down."

"Oh... it's messy... it's really getting messy."

He only thinks that the old He who is talking is a lunatic, thinking that he has lost his mind and has seen a ghost.

"Understand?"

Not long after.

Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Gaosui, and Ji Gang had already led a large group of people outside the marked secluded courtyard.

Seeing the closed door and the dark courtyard, the three of them glanced at each other and nodded in unison. Then the soldiers following the three of them tried to open the closed door without any hesitation. Bump away. Boom, boom, boom.
However, the soldiers at the front bumped into it several times, and the closed wooden door was forced open.

The moment the door burst open, the sound of sharp arrows piercing the air was heard, rushing towards the soldiers who were at the front.

Dang Dang Dang.
Fortunately, the officers and soldiers were all on alert under the orders of the three men.

The moment the arrow blade flew towards them, each of the soldiers immediately squatted down as low as possible. The soldiers who had been standing behind them and holding up their shields stepped over them in one step and held the sword in their hands. The shield-heavy pestle stood at the front, blocking all the sudden arrows.

After blocking the first round of arrows, the soldiers holding shields advanced slowly. The soldiers who were squatting on the ground followed behind them, hiding behind them, and rushed in together.

After that, the rest of the soldiers stayed behind to protect the safety of the three people, and the remaining soldiers rushed in without any hesitation.

Suddenly, the tranquility of this silent courtyard was broken instantly. Shouts of death, curses, angry shouts, roars, wailings, and a series of sounds of various weapons clashing suddenly rang out.

Almost all the nearby residents who had turned off their lights and were sleeping were woken up.

There was no shortage of people with good intentions and curiosity. They cautiously poked their heads out of the half-open doors and windows to see the strange things and watch the excitement. They were greeted by Jinyi guards in flying fish uniforms and Ming soldiers holding spears.

Everyone was involuntarily startled, and quickly retracted their heads, closing the doors and windows they had just opened, completely giving up on watching the excitement.

The three people sitting on the horses, guarded by many soldiers in the center, saw the sounds of charging, shouting, and wailing in the small courtyard. A smile appeared on their faces unconsciously, and they couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief. .

There is no other reason.

The information in the previous letter was accurate. The people living in this small courtyard were indeed the assassins who slipped through the net tonight.

In addition to being happy, happy, and thankful, the three of them could not help but murmur in their hearts at this moment.

Who is the person who sent this letter?
What is your purpose for this and what do you want to do?
Did the thief take the opportunity to silence him, or was there another force hiding behind him?
You must know that the entire city of Yingtianfu City is under martial law. The Jinyi Guards and the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Department are all dispatched. Even the power hidden in the dark by the Crown Prince and Prince Zhao is activated.

The news gathered by so many people only drew a circle in the entire Yingtianfu City, knowing that these thieves were hiding in this circle.

There is no way to accurately locate which private house or courtyard these rebellious officials and traitors are hiding in.

The person who sent the letter was able to accurately locate the locations of these thieves.

It would be fine if the thief used their hands to silence him, but if not...

Thinking of this, the three of them were all smart people and knew what this situation meant. They all shuddered at this matter. They all glanced at each other subconsciously, and the expressions on their faces became extremely solemn.

After that, the Crown Prince and King Zhao looked at Ji Gang in unison and asked in a deep voice:

"Commander-in-Chief, is there any way to trace the clues of the person who sent the letter?"

After hearing the question, Ji Gang looked solemn, his face changed again and again, and finally he had to shake his head and deny it.

For a moment, the venue fell into an eerie silence, with different expressions on everyone's faces.

After a moment, Zhu Gaochi spoke first with half-closed eyes, glanced at the two people beside him, and said:

"Lao San, the commander-in-chief..."

"Then do you think this is a thief who wants to silence us, or is there another force in Yingtianfu City?"
