"Your Highness, Ying San has an urgent report!"
In Jingyang Prefecture, Shen Kuan rushed in hurriedly holding a letter.
Shadow three?
This is one of the few people who successfully infiltrated Black Crow.
Ying San sent an urgent message. It seems that Black Crow is about to take action.
If nothing unexpected happens, Black Crow should want to kill Cui Wenjing.
No more trouble forever!
While Yun Zheng was thinking, he took the letter handed to him by Shen Kuan and opened it.
Looking at the contents of the letter, Yun Zheng couldn't help but frown.
The news from Ying San was indeed consistent with his guess.
...
...
The leaders of the Black Crow and the White Crow personally led the team to kill Cui Wenjing at all costs!
Ying Er was also selected to participate in this assassination mission.
At present, they have only received the order to prepare to take action, but they have no idea about the specific time and place of action.
The leader of the Black Crow and the White Crow also deliberately concealed the truth from them, telling everyone not to ask anything and just to follow him when it was time to act.
They were afraid of arousing suspicion and did not dare to ask too many questions.
The news sent back by Ying San was not good news for Yun Zheng.
He would rather spend more than one million taels of silver to bring Cui Wenjing's entire family safely into his hands.
But now he didn't know the time and place where Black Crow and White Crow would take action, so he couldn't make too many arrangements in advance.
Ying Er alone would definitely not be able to stop Black Crow and White Crow from taking action.
Yun Zheng thought silently for a while and immediately walked towards the study.
Now, he could only write a letter to Yun Li to tell him that he wanted food, shipbuilding craftsmen, silver, and Cui Wenjing and others to be sent together.
In this case, Yun Li will definitely send more people to escort.
In this way, the chances of Black Crow and White Crow succeeding will be much smaller.
Soon, Yun Zheng came outside and handed the letter in his hand to Chen Kuan: "Order someone to deliver this letter to the Imperial City in the name of urgent military information! In addition, order the Eighteen Ghost Riders to move quickly towards the Imperial City. Once the team escorting Cui Wenjing and others leaves the Imperial City, immediately follow and provide support!"
Shen Kuan immediately took the order and left.
When Yun Zheng turned around, he frowned and began to think deeply again.
At present, it has been confirmed that the person behind Black Crow and White Crow is the one he is looking for.
Now we must find ways to save Cui Wenjing's life.
As long as Cui Wenjing is in your hands, all the mysteries will be revealed!
After thinking silently for a while, Yun Zheng said to himself again: "Should we go straight to Huanglong?"
If we kill all the Black Crows and White Crows in one fell swoop, we won't have to worry about Cui Wenjing being killed to silence him, right?
However, both the Black Crow and the White Crow are in Suizhou.
If you want to wipe out the black crows and white crows in one fell swoop, you must send a large army.
But he can't send troops into Suizhou now!
Otherwise, it would be a real rebellion.
Moreover, even if a large army was sent to Suizhou, it would take two or three days.
With this much time, the "Military Intelligence Report" sent urgently over 800 miles would have been delivered to the imperial city long ago!
After thinking silently for a while, Yun Zheng temporarily gave up the idea.
…
Imperial city.
Qiao Yanxian personally led 500 people to escort Cui Wenjing and his family.
Cui Wenjing and his family were detained in a prison van. Everyone was disheveled and looked half dead.
"What's going on?"
"Who's in trouble again?"
"I heard it was the Crown Prince's Attendant Cui Wenjing..."
"Isn't the Crown Prince the regent? And the Crown Prince's attendant was exiled with his entire family?"
"Who can tell what's going on in the court? Aren't there many people who are in high esteem today and in jail tomorrow?"
"Too……"
Seeing these people being escorted, many people stretched their necks to watch and talk from time to time.
No one knew what had happened in the court, only that Cui Wenjing had committed a crime.
Judging from the situation, the whole family was probably exiled or sent to military service!
However, despite their discussions, the common people did not dare to get close to the large number of armored and powerful soldiers.
Qiao Yan first led people to escort them all the way, and along the way they could see people watching the excitement.
Qiao Yanxian did not dare to be careless at all and always paid attention to the situation around him.
Just as Qiao Yanxian led his men to escort these people through North Street, the windows on the attics of the two houses on both sides of the street slowly cracked open, and crossbow arrows were aimed at and quietly poked out of the windows.
As soon as the prison cart came into the crossbow's attack range, they would launch an attack immediately.
Seeing the escort team getting closer and closer to them, Ying Er also made preparations.
He didn't know that Cui Wenjing was useful to Yun Zheng.
In order to gain Black Crow's further trust, he had to follow and shoot those who were being escorted.
But he also knew that once they took action, it would be extremely difficult to escape in a place like the Imperial City.
But he must live!
On the one hand, it was because he didn't want to die, and on the other hand, only by staying alive would he have the chance to meet the people who would pick them up.
The person who picks them up may very well be the key figure in uncovering the mastermind behind this!
Ying Er was thinking silently, and glanced at the crossbow in his hand out of the corner of his eye.
They had sneaked into the imperial city disguised as merchants and it was impossible for them to carry such sharp weapons.
These powerful crossbows were prepared for them in advance and placed on Maoer Mountain.
These are the most powerful crossbows in the army!
The imperial court had such strict control over crossbows, but these people were able to get so many powerful crossbows. They really had great powers.
Just as Ying Er was secretly sighing, the prison van carrying Cui Wenjing and others gradually entered their attack range.
The leader of the White Crows pretended to be a beggar and leaned on the street, quietly waiting for the opportunity.
Getting closer and closer!
The moment the prison van entered the attack range, the beggar slowly stood up.
The moment he stood up, a loud shout suddenly came from the attic.
"Get started!"
The moment this sound was heard, everyone who had hidden already pulled the triggers of their crossbows.
“Swoosh…”
Several crossbow arrows flew straight towards the people in the prison car.
"puff!"
"puff……"
The powerful arrows instantly killed all thirteen people on the prison car.
As expected, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had it right!
Qiao Yanxian was overjoyed and immediately shouted, "Surround all the houses around! Don't let any one go!"
Following Qiao Yanxian's order, five hundred elite soldiers rushed out.
The people who were originally watching the excitement suddenly became panicked and fled in all directions to avoid becoming innocent victims.
"Quick! Go down!"
Ying Er and others quickly broke the window, jumped out of the attic, and tried to run to a crowded place.
As long as they escape from the scene, their chances of survival will increase by 50%.
Just as Ying Er jumped down, several people gathered in front of the cake stall suddenly pulled out weapons from under the wooden carts.
Before Ying Er could blend into the crowd, several people rushed towards him.
Just as the other assassin was about to blend into the crowd, two people dressed in ordinary people's clothes suddenly rushed out from the crowd.
The two men cooperated skillfully and with a backhand strike, they severely injured the assassin who was trying to blend into the crowd.
The same scene was happening elsewhere on the street.
Soon, this section of the street turned into a battlefield.
Not far away, there were more government troops armed with weapons but wearing ordinary people's clothes rushing towards them.
Looking at the situation in front of him, the beggar on the street corner's face changed drastically.
not good!
Fell into a trap!
The government troops were obviously well prepared!
This is a trap!
Just wait for them to fall into the trap!
Just when the beggar was in a panic, a loud voice suddenly came from a distance.
"Urgent military intelligence report!"
"Eight hundred miles in a hurry!"
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"
Along with the sound, a messenger with three flags on his back rode over quickly on his horse.
Faced with the rushing messenger soldiers, even the guards of the Prince's Palace did not dare to block their way and they all retreated to the sides of the street to make way.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ying Er quickly pushed away the people who were trying to stop him and desperately fled into the scattered crowd...
