"Not tonight. If we leave immediately after the Marshal's Mansion is robbed, it will be obvious that we have something to hide. If we leave such an obvious handle, we will be attacked by the South at all costs."
"What should we do then?"
"Let's go to the Marshal's Mansion now!"
Chu Luwei turned around, his narrow eyes as dark as the night. "Send someone to pass a message to the brothers guarding the dock. Gather all the people you can find and guard the dock before tomorrow morning."
When you are trapped in a wolf's den, the only way is to scare the tiger away.
I had known that the woman would cause trouble, but I hadn't expected her to be so bold as to steal the defense map in Xuancheng.
Should we say that she is talented and bold or that she is ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth?
"The thief may not be able to leave the Marshal's Mansion. Even if he can leave, we must mobilize all our forces to catch him back!"
The man walked away briskly, his stern back like a sharp blade drawn from its sheath.

At the same time, in the underground secret passage of the Marshal's Mansion, two figures crawled through the tunnel at an extremely fast speed.
But in a place where no one noticed, a little bee was following them quietly and closely.
*******
The night outside the house was like a ball of thick ink that had been stirred up.
When Wu Zhanqi returned to the Marshal's Mansion, the first thing he did was to kick the door open. This kick was filled with his utmost anger.
"Where's the person? Where is he now? Do your best to bring him back to me. If you can't catch him, don't come back!"
Feng Wen broke out in cold sweat on his back. No one had expected that such an important thing as the military defense map would be stolen right under their noses.
"Marshal, fortunately we found him in time. He should not have escaped from the Marshal's Mansion yet..."
Wu Zhanqi kicked him, and his chest felt like it was on fire, making his face extremely distorted and hideous.
"If we don't find the thing tonight, not even a fly in the entire Marshal's Mansion or even Xuancheng will be able to escape!"
"And send someone to keep an eye on that place..."
Before Wu Zhanqi could finish his words, the door opened and a tall and majestic figure walked in with the night breeze.
Chu Luwei raised his eyebrows slightly. "I heard that the Marshal's residence was robbed. I wonder what was lost?"
Wu Zhanqi was stagnant at this point. Of course he wouldn't say that his own defense map was lost.
Squinting his eyes, he looked at Chu Luwei. Of course, he would not think that the other party knew nothing. Instead, he dared to come to the Marshal's Mansion at this time. He had to sigh that this kid was very courageous!
"But the few petty thieves who came in haven't escaped from the mansion yet. They will be caught by the servants soon... But Chu kid, you came just in time. It's late at night and the dew is heavy. You might as well stay in the Marshal's mansion tonight..."
Chu Luwei remained motionless and responded decisively.
"Then I'll trouble you, Marshal."
Wu Zhanqi snorted coldly, thinking that he was sensible.
Chu Luwei's lips seemed to smile:
"Since the Marshal has seen a thief, I, Chu, a humble man, am willing to contribute my strength and hope that the Marshal can catch the thief as soon as possible."
Wu Zhanqi's heart skipped a beat, and his heart, which had already made up its mind, suddenly became uncertain.
If Chu Luwei just followed his instructions and ignored any questions, he would think that the other party had already grasped the whole truth and knew that the military defense map was stolen, so he had to avoid suspicion.
But he suddenly put on such an unfathomable look, making him unsure whether he knew that the lost items were military defense maps...
"Could it be that something important has been lost, making it inconvenient for Chu to come forward?"
Chu Luwei stood sideways, a tentative look in his eyes.
Wu Zhanqi's personality can be generally summarized as being sensitive, suspicious, and uncertain.
What was lost was the military defense map, which is very disadvantageous to Chu Luwei's current identity.
Therefore, the more he wanted to interfere, the less suspicious Wu Zhanqi became of him.
Be false but real, be real but false. This is the best way to deal with suspicious people.
Sure enough, Wu Zhanqi soon smiled slowly.
"Of course I know what Chu is capable of. It would be best if you were willing to help."
********
Time passes by every second.
Qingdai rushed to a dilapidated temple outside the Marshal's Mansion, ready to wait there.
This dilapidated temple is connected to the secret passage that was dug out in the Marshal's Mansion.
The two people in the secret passage were still trying hard to avoid the defense. They only opened the defense map to confirm its authenticity and never opened it again.
The information on the defense map was complicated and it was impossible to remember it in a short period of time. A small mistake could lead to a huge error. No one could afford to take the risk, so they took a huge risk and decided to take action tonight after careful consideration.
Everyone knows this.
But this difficulty can be solved instantly by Qingdai.
There are many ways to steal deployment information, but the deployment map must not be lost. Otherwise, if such a big handle falls into Wu Zhanqi's hands, he will certainly not let it go. It will become extremely difficult for Chu Luwei to leave Xuancheng.
What she had to do was to intercept the defense map in his hand when the man successfully escaped, make a copy for the traitor, and send the original back to the Marshal's Mansion.
It was just a smooth night, but an accident still happened.
"Host, this is bad! Those two people have been discovered!"
