Chapter 67(1/2)

Some people are looking for traces of Xuanwu in the capital.

When Bai Shier learned the news, he immediately realized where the group of people who were looking for Xuanwu traces came from and who did things for.

After all, since the day he sent Wu Jian away, he had been waiting for the emergence of these people.

As the end of the year approached, he thought that the prince in Hongdu Mansion would send people to the city until spring was in full bloom and the river was frozen, but he did not expect that the people sent by King Ning would quietly arrive in the capital.

Of course, he actually has no direct evidence at this moment, and even indirect evidence is very reluctant.

The only basis for him to make this judgment was only from the Jinyiwei, the East Factory and the Six Gates. Someone was trying to buy news about the North Pole Heaven and Xuanwu. Apart from that, there was no other basis.

However, for Bai Shier, this is enough.

After all, this matter involves the Ning Prince's Mansion. Apart from him and the emperor, even Mo Bin, Jiang Zong and Guo Ju are not clear about the reason.

Even they had little understanding of why Wu Jian was able to leave the capital alone.

However, as the leaders of the Jinyiwei, the leaders of the three major yamen of Dongchang and Liushemen, they knew very clearly that there was the shadow of the emperor behind this matter, so they actually wanted to know nothing in their hearts.

Especially when they saw that even though they had found Xuanwu's hiding place, the emperor still ordered them unreasonably. Without the orders issued by the emperor himself, they would never allow Xuanwu to be touched, and they were even more silent about this matter and dared not say a word.

In order to prevent his subordinates from committing suicide, the three of them did not even dare to inform them about this matter. Except for the Jinyiwei who was affiliated with the Qianhu Institute of Tianjin, no one in the three major yamen knew that Xuanwu had been found.

It is about the royal secret. The more you know, the faster you die.

As three people with many subordinates and were born entirely based on the emperor, they knew this truth very well.

Even if they are not sure, they can make them clear about the fate of the commander of the Jinyiwei decades and why they ended up like this.

As Bai Shier, who is only responsible to the emperor and even if he tells others about it, he will be avoided by others like a snake or a scorpion, can naturally "do whatever he wants" in this matter.

Even though his judgments were entirely derived from speculation and so-called intuition, it was completely enough for him.

Even if it is used to convince the emperor, it is completely enough.

The emperor naturally didn't care much about the whereabouts that had been completely exposed, and it was just used as a bait for fishing.

Even if Bai Shier's intuition was wrong this time, there would be no loss for the emperor.

But if it is true, it would be completely different for the emperor.

Maybe this time I can directly grasp the handle of King Ning.

With the emperor's tacit approval, Bai Shier immediately took action.

He alone obviously cannot complete the task. After all, he does not know the clone technique, so the only thing he knows about Xuanwu's whereabouts has been secretly responsible for monitoring Xuanwu during this period to prevent Xuanwu from escaping from sight again. All the Jinyiwei from the Qianhu Station of Tianjin, which was transferred from Tianjin from Tianjin to the capital by Mo Bin, were directly sent to his subordinates for listening.

However, after thinking for a night, Bai Shier felt that instead of trying hard to investigate, search, and arrest him, it would be better to let these guys jump out on their own initiative.

As for how to get these mere people hiding in the huge capital to jump out, Bai Shier also had an idea in his mind.

...

There was less than half of the ten-day period left before Ye Yi reminded him when he just arrived in the capital. During these five days, even if he had spent a lot of money to buy Jinyiwei, Dongchang Fanzi and Liusanmen's constable, Li Donghua's gains were still almost gone.

This made him, who was already under great pressure, become more anxious in the past two days.

‘Do you really need to use that last method?’

When he looked at a subordinate who came to report the news to him with hope again, but once again kicked his subordinate out of the room with disappointment on his face, Li Donghua, who was almost slumped on the chair, had depressed eyes and his heart began to despair.

There is really not much time left for him.

If he hadn't received any inspiring news from Jinyiwei, Dongchang or Liushumen today, then he should have carefully planned tonight, how to investigate the whereabouts of those who listened to "walking" or "apprentices" in the capital, then select targets from them, and then secretly kidnapped them.

After all, with only four days left, it takes a lot of time to get information about "Tongyou" from low-level "walking" or "apprentices" to plan kidnapping, and then to coerce and lure the tied "Tongyou" to learn about Xuanwu from them. In this series of links, no one of them could be achieved overnight, and it takes a lot of time.

In just four days, maybe even the whereabouts of a "Tongyou" might be difficult to find out.

‘I just hope that those killing gods can give me some more time when they have the hope of finding Xuanwu.’

Standing up, looking at the west of the sky, it would be completely set in less than an hour, thus ending the sun on the day, Li Donghua's eyes were filled with melancholy.

Besides comforting himself in his heart, he had lost the only hope left before.

He, looking at the falling sun, had already decided to make the last forced plan.

If you fail, you will be successful!

"Sir, sir!"

Just as his heart dispelled the melancholy in his eyes with ferocity and replaced the helplessness in his heart with ruthlessness, a young man who looked just as young as a young man, wearing a square scarf and a Confucian robe, was still hanging on his waist in the cold winter month, and dressed in a scholar-like young man waved to Li Donghua with ecstasy expression on his face, and ran towards him quickly.

Seeing Li Donghua, who looked like this, had been disappointed so many times before, his heart was already numb, and he couldn't help but thrill again, and his eyes showed hope again.

"Shuting, but there are gains."

Seeing the young scholar named Shuting running to him, Li Donghua didn't care about the airs he had raised up under these hands, and quickly walked forward, asking anxiously with a longing in his mouth.

"Hu, drink, hu, hu..."

The scholar who seemed to be running a little too anxiously, and who was still shouting at Li Donghua just now was breathing desperately after standing still, and wanted to say something, but before he could speak, he started to breathe again because of his depression.

"Slow down, slow down, don't be too anxious. Let's breathe evenly before talking, don't be anxious."

Looking at Li Donghua, who looked like this, although he was very anxious and wanted him to say it immediately, he knew clearly that he had to relieve himself first. Therefore, Li Donghua took the initiative to suppress the anxiousness on his face and persuaded him not to be anxious, and breathed evenly and said slowly.

However, his repeated emphasis undoubtedly revealed his true thoughts.

"Gudong, huh, cough cough."

However, after a strong breath of half a cup of tea, the scholar named Shuting finally stopped panting. He swallowed two mouthfuls of saliva, moistened his throat, which became itchy due to the violent running. After coughing twice, he straightened his waist with his knees on his hands, and said to Li Donghua with uncontrollable joy.

"Sir, I'm so happy, so happy."

"But I found out about Xuanwu? Tell me quickly!"

Seeing that this subordinate named Shuting was still keeping a secret at this time, Li Donghua really wanted to reward him first.

"Sir, it's not simply about Xuanwu's information, but about Xuanwu's exact news, about where the old turtle is now."

Seeing the impatientness and violence deep in Li Donghua's eyes, Shuting didn't dare to stretch it anymore and quickly spoke up to report the great good news to him.

"The old turtle of Xuanwu is now hidden in Xuannanfang."

"What?!!!"

When Li Donghua heard the news, he couldn't help but widen his eyes and opened his mouth unconsciously. He was obviously shocked by the news that Shuting said.

"Message, is it reliable?!"

However, immediately, he came to his senses and closed his mouth, but his eyes were still wide open, looking straight at Shuting's eyes, and asked with some bumps.

However, after asking, he couldn't help but regret it.

After all, it seems to him that he is already a very difficult thing to get this news. As for whether it is reliable or not, I am afraid that it will take him to send someone to investigate secretly before he can confirm it. His direct questioning made Shuting difficult.

“Absolutely reliable!”

What Li Donghua never expected was that in the face of his problem, Shuting not only did not speak as vague as he expected, but instead looked confident and almost patted his chest as if he promised.

"Shuting, this matter is related to the prince's mission. If you are not sure, you dare not speak randomly for the sake of reward!"

Li Donghua naturally didn't believe Shuting's answer. In his opinion, it was probably because Shuting was eager to make contributions and took it so carelessly.

Therefore, he couldn't help but warn with a 70% kindness and a 30% warning.

He came to the capital for three or four years and finally absorbed and cultivated a few talents he liked. This Shuting is one of them. This can be seen from the Shuting’s name to him, "Mr.". Therefore, he naturally did not want to see the other party fall into a vortex of huge risks because of his eagerness to make quick success and instant benefits.

"Sir, Shuting is not the one who is a person who is indiscriminately guaranteeing benefits for the sake of rewards."

But in the face of Li Donghua's kindness warning, Shuting not only did not appreciate it, but also showed some anxiety and unwillingness on his face, and looked at Li Donghua without any worries.

"How could this news be false if the students got it from the Jinyiwei and verified it?"

Immediately afterwards, he expressed his confidence in his reliance.

"Embroidered Uniform Guard?"

Looking at Shuting's undoubted eyes and hearing that the news came from the "Embroidered Uniform Guard", Li Donghua couldn't help but feel more confident in him.

“That’s right.”

Shuting nodded.

"This matter has to be said from the beginning..."

"Since that's the case, then go into the house and sit down and talk."

Seeing the sweat beads on Shuting's face still oozing out, he was afraid that he would stand like this outside. Li Donghua, who was infected with the cold under the heat and cold, raised his hand to interrupt him, turned around and walked into the room first.

...

"Speaking of this time, I was lucky enough to get this news from the Jinyiwei, thanks to your wise eyes and your predictions are as good as gods, otherwise..."

In the room, I wiped off the sweat beads from my face and drank several bowls of warm tea to relieve the dry and itchy throat. Shuting really started to "start from the beginning".

"Okay, okay, there's no need to say these words, just talk about the serious matters."

Although Li Donghua was flattered by his subordinates and disciples, he felt a little proud, but he wanted to listen carefully to the whole story of the news and then judge how true the news was. Li Donghua immediately suppressed the pride and interrupted Shuting's compliment, making him get straight to the point.

"This is a coincidence,"

Since the complimentary master said this, Shuting naturally "takes good deeds like a stream" and immediately talks about the serious matter seriously.
