Zhao Quan smiled and nodded, "thank you, Mr. Pei."
As long as I can help him find the thief, I'll take care of Peiyuan and Peifang.
Zhao Quan sent two bodyguards to Pei Zhuang, one is Xiaoliu, the other is a half old teenager. They all followed Pei Zhuang with a long gun in one's hand. They were very bluffing.
Pei Zhuang thought that since the city gate was all firmly guarded, if the spy wanted to pass the news, there would be other exits, maybe on the ground or underground.
She immediately asked Zhao Quan to assign more people to her. They searched all the way around the city wall.
Pei makeup asked them as she walked along: "you are all children who grew up in Luoyang City. You should know this city very well. Do you know whether there are dog holes and other things at the root of the city wall?"
In ancient cities like this, there should be many places in disrepair. It's not surprising that there are dog holes. Even the Imperial Palace has dog holes to go out.
"I don't know, because Luoyang has always been an important place for soldiers, so when it was built, the city wall was built in a very heavy way. In addition, the successive dynasties continued to repair, not to mention the dog hole. Even if someone wanted to dig a hole in it, it was very difficult." Xiaoliu explained next to her.
If it is not from the earth, it may be from the earth or the sky.
So Pei Zhuang told them to pay close attention to whether there are birds like carrier pigeons flying out in the sky these days. If there are all birds that are shot down with swords, they must not let one out. We also asked each alley to count the number of people in each household and adopt the sit in system. If someone suddenly disappeared, he or she should go to Yamen to report immediately. If someone didn't report, the whole alley would be punished by sitting in succession.
Seeing that it's going to be dark soon, Xiao Liu and a Sheng are still following Pei's make-up. They have a posture of going home with her.
She said to them with a dry smile, "the two little brothers are working hard. I'll come back to you tomorrow morning. Go back and have a rest."
"No, the general asked us to be at your service at any time. In case of burglars in the evening, we can protect your safety by your side."
It's just a plan to waste it with her. Can she still run?
Although he is a soldier, he is still small in physique and speaks in a low voice. He doesn't look like a soldier at all.
Pei Zhuang slaps him heavily on the shoulder, saying that he will go to the toilet and let them wait here. Turning around, she takes Lan'er away.
I bought a kid on the side of the road and asked him to tell Xiaoliu that Mr. Pei had returned home and let them wait outside the camp for him to meet in the morning.
Pei Zhuang specially found an abandoned house without people, and changed back to women's clothes, which was back to the general.
As soon as I entered the door, I happened to meet the general's housekeeper. There was also a housekeeper among the people who wanted to search Pei makeup's bedroom last time, so Pei makeup didn't like him very much.
When the Butler saw Pei Zhuang, he went to meet her with a smile: "I haven't seen her all day. I don't know where she has gone."
"Now the emperor and several generals live in your house. The housekeeper is very clear about the itinerary of our palace, even if we haven't come back all day." Pei looked at him inquisitively.
"My mother joked. Since I'm in charge of all the affairs in the general's mansion, I have to know everything about it. I just want to remind my mother that it's not peaceful outside now. It's better to go out less." The Butler explained respectfully.
It seems that Pei Zhuang thinks that she really thinks more about it. Recently, she is a little sensitive and feels that no one is a good person.
At night, Pei Zhuang sat by the window, holding a pen in her hand, and wrote all the possible ways to go out. She regarded herself as the spy sent by the enemy, and thought about how she could get the news and escape.
She recalled all the sights they saw during their tour today, from the streets and alleys to the towering walls, and the moat running through the city walls
Yes, she didn't think of it before!
Although there is no dog hole on the ground, there is a moat directly leading to the outside underground. The river is supposed to work.
"Moat, the thief went out from the moat!" Pei put the pen down abruptly.
Lan'er had been dozing off outside. Hearing Pei's voice rubbing his eyes, he came in sleepily and asked, "what did you say about the moat just now, Lord? How can I hear that the weather is getting colder and colder, and the moat will be frozen soon?"
"Then we must hurry up. If the thief really goes out of the river, he will probably escape after freezing." Pei Zhuang immediately starts to go out to find Zhao Quan.
She asked Lan'er to change her clothes quickly and go straight to Chengdong camp after disguised.
Zhao Quan thought it was ridiculous after listening to her conjecture. After all, it's late autumn now. The river is freezing at night. How can anyone choose to swim out there? Is he not afraid of the cold?
Pei Zhuang hurriedly said: "I have contacted with the Scouts of Fusang country several times. They are very patient people. Qianzhanxue of the Imperial Academy has been dormant for more than ten years just to get close to the center of power. Li Fengqin, the leader of Lingxi stronghold, has been hiding in the gully for so many years in order to transmit information. You and I can't imagine the endurance of these people."
Zhao Quan only heard a little about Qian zhanxue and Li Fengqin. He didn't know the details. However, Zhao Quan was surprised that he was able to speak out in such a clear and detailed way.
"Who are you, and why are you so clear about the affairs of the court?"
Pei makeup is not afraid of his suspicion. "It's natural to be able to help the general. If the general wants to increase his rank, he should do as I said below to ensure that the general will not worry about it."
Seeing that he was so determined, Zhao Quan thought that he would simply trust him again, and asked, "what do you think we should do now?"
"If you send someone directly to guard the riverside of the city, that person will not dare to appear, and he will also scare the snake. It's better for us to let out some false information that misleads the enemy, and then send someone to ambush him in secret outside, and take him down as soon as he appears. "
This move uses the method of leading the snake out of the hole to find out the spy.
Zhao Quan felt that this method was feasible, and immediately said that he would let the butler of the general's house arrange the matter. The one he trusted most was the butler.
Pei Zhuang stopped Zhao Quan and asked him not to tell anyone of Zhao's family about it. He should go to Xin Guogong to borrow soldiers. As for the housekeeper, he could not tell him half the score.
It's very important. Although Zhao Quan thinks Pei Zhuang is making a fuss and doesn't trust the people around him, he still arranges the next things according to Pei Zhuang's requirements.
