On the ninth day of August, Zhao Tong moved out of Wanyan Xiyin Dazhai and moved into a medium-sized village. There was also a row of wooden halls in front of the village where official business was conducted.
On the tenth day of the eighth lunar month, a large banquet was held in Huining City to celebrate the creation of the Jin Dynasty writing. The banquet lasted from noon to midnight, and the courtiers were all drunk.
Zhao Tong walked home crookedly, with a Jurchen soldier in front holding the horse and a Jurchen soldier behind him supporting him. These were the guards in the village. His current official position had forty guards, ten more than Muzaha.
Entering the village, the village owner's residence is the largest courtyard behind the wooden lobby. There are about three to ten houses in it, and Zhao Tong's courtyard has five.
When he reached the door, Huang Gu hurriedly came to pick him up. After sending away the guards, Zhao Tong shouted: "Thirteenth Mother, Thirteenth Mother..."
No one answered. For more than ten days after that night, although my mother continued to do things every day, she didn't say a word to him, didn't look at him, and didn't even care about being watched. She just kept silent.
Zhao Tong had no choice but to perform a one-man show when he saw someone coming outside the window, throwing and beating him, which was very painful.
Now that he has moved to a new village, he naturally feels a lot more relaxed from top to bottom. As he walks all the way in, he sees the village owner’s bedroom at the third entrance, but it has five large rooms. There is a bright hall at the entrance, with two houses on each side. , the shape is a suite.
He staggered in and went to the main suite on the left first. There was a light inside, but he saw no one.
Zhao Tong was puzzled and called Thirteen Niang again. He walked to the suite on the right and saw the girl curled up in the corner of the bed looking at him with bright eyes.
Zhao Tong asked in confusion: "What are you doing here? Why don't you go over there and rest."
The little girl shook her head.
Zhao Tong thought for a while and said, "I'm not sure yet whether anyone will continue to monitor me. Although no one came after trying last night, it's hard to tell tonight. After all, I drank today, so I might be a flaw in the eyes of the other party."
A sneer appeared on the corner of the girl's mouth, and she still shook her head while looking at Zhao Tong.
Zhao Tong said: "We only have a few days left, so why not make sure everything is foolproof?"
The young lady stopped paying attention to him, covered her body and half of her face with the quilt, and closed her eyes.
Just as Zhao Tong was about to speak again, he suddenly raised his eyebrows and looked up at the roof.
The little girl secretly opened her eyes, saw his movements, and sneered: "Although I am naive and ignorant, I can never think of being deceived again..."
Before the girl could finish her words, she saw Zhao Tong approaching like lightning. She was immediately startled. She was about to pull out the dagger from the quilt, but unexpectedly, Zhao Tong had already got into the quilt and held it tightly. He took her hand, and the dagger could not be pulled out at all.
Seeing that he couldn't move, the young lady looked at him coldly, but she only persisted for a moment, and her face started to feel hot.
Late autumn is getting colder, so I put on more clothes during the day and cover myself with a quilt at night. After taking off the coat, although the inside is similar to what I wore in summer, the quilt is warm inside. The two people are close together, and there is an unspeakable atmosphere. stand up.
Zhao Tong listened carefully to the sounds on the roof and was confused. Logically speaking, although there was a possibility that Wanyan Xiyin would continue to send people to monitor him, it was not big. After all, the matter had been settled and he had left the other side's village. But now this This situation appeared again, but his heart sank slightly.
At this moment, the little girl felt Zhao Tong holding her hand tightly, and their bodies were close to each other again, and her heartbeat could not help but speed up. However, seeing the look in Zhao Tong's eyes, she did not dare to speak easily, for fear that Zhao Tong would do what he did last time.
When she thought of what happened last time, she felt panicked in her heart. She felt her face burning even more and she hated herself even more. As for Zhao Tong... she didn't dare to think about it anymore. She closed her eyes and let her mind become chaotic.
After a long time, Zhao Tong suddenly got out of the quilt. His expression was gloomy, and he didn't even know that the girl's side was already a ball of paste.
Standing in the middle of the ground with a murderous look on his face, he has never thought about killing someone since he entered Huining!
After a while, Zhao Tong slowly walked back to the kang and said: "Thirteenth Mother, go sleep over there!"
The girl looked at his face, her lips moved, but she didn't speak this time.
Zhao Tong stretched out his hands, hugged each other with the quilt around their waists, and walked to the east suite. When he got to the room, he put his wife on the kang. After tidying up his own house, he also went up.
It's just that this time he spread the sheepskin mats next to his wife. It's no longer like the one in the east and one in the west like in Wanyan Xiyin Village.
Seeing Zhao Tong lying down next to her, the girl's heart almost squeezed together. The two were so close that even if they stretched out their hands, they would touch each other, and if they stretched out their legs, they might get into each other's quilt.
Zhao Tong glanced at her, and she quickly closed her eyes. Zhao Tong turned back and knocked out the lights on the table, making the room darken.
"Go to sleep." Zhao Tong said.
The young lady didn't say a word, but she shrank back as hard as she could, wishing she could press her body against the wall to feel safe.
"Don't think so wildly," Zhao Tong said. After speaking, he turned over and turned his back to his mother.
The little girl secretly opened her eyes to look at him, and saw that he had not moved for a long time, so she tucked the quilt in front of her tightly and tried to sleep.
On August 11th, Wanyan Aguda issued the edict for autumn hunting. There were seventy-four royal family members and ministers accompanying him, and Zhao Tong was among them.
He went to Wanyan Baohua Village and the two talked for a long time. He asked Wanyan Baohua how to send Xiao Min and the others out of Huining.
Wanyan Baohua's plan was simple. She was on the autumn hunting list, but she would be delayed by one day. Then she would take the three of them with her, pretending to be guards, and rush to the western grassland together.
There is nothing wrong with this plan. As Wanyan Baohua, it is completely feasible. As long as it is done carefully, no one will find out about her.
On August 12, Zhao Tong went to Muzaha's village again, and saw the Liao spy sitting in the courtyard basking in the sun with his little grandson in his arms, looking a little depressed.
Zhao Tong already knew a lot about Muzaha's situation. Among Muzaha's two sons, the eldest son died in the battle at Hubu Dagang, and the second son was still in the Liaodong Army.
But what Zhao Tong didn't expect was that the two sons didn't know his identity as a spy from the Liao Kingdom. Even when he evacuated Huining this time, Mu Zhaha never thought of telling the two sons his true identity, let alone sent a letter to the two sons. He fled the army.
Zhao Tong looked at the old man and couldn't tell what he felt in his heart. The old man said calmly: "Yuan Shangshu doesn't have to worry about the old man. The old man has his own arrangements."
Zhao Tong nodded in agreement. He knew that after many years of operation, Mu Zhaha must have some methods of his own to escape from the Kingdom of Jin. As for how to escape, he did not ask.
Returning to the village, he summoned the three girls and talked for nearly an hour. They combined the plan they had come with with Wanyan Baohua's plan, and then they dispersed after waiting for various possible situations and countermeasures.
Zhao Tong made some preparations at home again, and the horse was still the same Wu Zui he rode to Huining. It was not that he did not have a war horse that could match Wu Zui now, it was just because Wu Zui was a Liao horse, and the old horse knew the way, so he rode Wu Zui. Zui is more stable.
After dinner, it got dark. Zhao Tong went back to his room and decided to have a good night's rest. Unexpectedly, before he could turn off the lights, there were some noises coming from outside.
Murderous intent suddenly arose in his heart, and he stood motionless on the ground, listening attentively.
The young lady came into the room at this time and saw that he had a strange expression, so she couldn't help but look up.
Zhao Tong suddenly said: "Thirteenth Mother, I discovered a big secret."
The young lady asked: "What secret?"
Zhao Tong said: "I discovered that Wanyan Xiyin is actually..." His voice lowered little by little, and finally it was almost inaudible.
The young lady only heard Zhao Tong whispering in her ear: "Hide the fish for me."
She was stunned, and the dagger stuck out of her sleeve and fell into Zhao Tong's hand.
Zhao Tong suddenly raised his voice and said, "He is actually a spy from the Liao Kingdom!"
At this moment, the dagger in Zhao Tong's hand suddenly shot upward like lightning. Yu Zang is a famous sword, cutting iron like mud. The roof of this house is just thin wood with hay spread on it. Yu Zang got through the cracks in the wood and penetrated the room like lightning. And out!
Immediately there was a muffled groan from the roof, followed by a "thud" sound, as if something fell on the roof and then rolled downwards.
Zhao Tong ducked out of the room, and his mother followed him nervously. When he looked outside, he saw a thin black shadow falling from the roof.
The black shadow fell directly to the ground with a cloud of blood mist, motionless. When the young lady saw this, she was about to step forward to watch, but Zhao Tong stretched out her hand to stop him.
Huang Gu and Ouyang Bei went out together at this time. Zhao Tong winked and the two of them immediately blocked the hospital door to prevent the patrolling guards from seeing the situation inside the hospital.
After a few more breaths, the young lady suddenly whispered: "Why does it look like a woman?"
Zhao Tong squinted his eyes and walked forward slowly. When he was two or three steps away from the black shadow, suddenly a sword light shot out from the black shadow. This sword light was not bright or dazzling, just a faint and shallow light. The light was like a poisonous snake hiding under the dark night, extremely fast.
The girl wanted to help but couldn't come in time. The sword was too fast. She had never seen such a fast sword before!
This sword is as fast as lightning. At this distance, even the Grandmaster can't directly avoid it, so he can only use weapons to block it.
But Zhao Tong didn't have a weapon in his hand. Even if he had a dagger hidden in his sleeve, it was too late to slide it out, hold it in his hand, and then use it to block.
Just when the young lady's beauty turned pale, she saw Zhao Tao suddenly raise his right hand to his chest, the cold star in his sleeve flashed, and he spit out the three-inch sword. The extremely fast sneak attack unexpectedly hit the three-inch sword. On the body.
Zhao Tong's body was shaken by the sword and he took half a step back. He was not holding the sword with his hand, but holding the hilt of the dagger in his arm. He didn't have much strength.
But in just half a step away, the dagger was completely out of its sleeve, narrow and sharp, with a strange shape and a cold light.
The opponent's sword was exhausted, as if he no longer had the strength to continue attacking. With a "clang", a gray thin sword fell to the ground, and the man became motionless again.
The girl's body was trembling, she looked at Zhao Tong and said tremblingly: "Yuan, Yuan Erlang, are you okay?"
Zhao Tong glanced at her and said with a smile: "It's okay. In fact, I had already taken precautions in my heart. I didn't know that this sword could be so fast."
He stepped forward, but this time there was no movement from the figure. Zhao Tong used a dagger to lift the veil, and saw a pretty face revealed, but it was Hanbalizhu.
"It's actually her?" Xiao Niang said.
Zhao Tong nodded: "It should be sent by Wanyan Xiyin, he still can't worry about me."
Xiao Niang said: "I heard that there is a Jurchen tribe named Jian Yin. There are not many people. They specialize in spying and concealing assassinations. The men are called Jian Yin Lang and the women are called Jian Yin Niang. Could this be Jian Yin?" mother?"
Zhao Tong said: "It looks like that. Fortunately, I gave her a gold hairpin and two kilograms of mutton a few days ago. Alas..."
When the young lady heard this, she looked at him and chuckled.
Over there, Huang Gu and Ouyang Bei saw that there was no one outside the door, so they hurriedly came over to dispose of the body. Zhao Tong said: "Don't bury it in the ground, it will leave traces."
Huang Gu said: "What do you think, Master?"
Zhao Tong looked around and said, "The stone fell into the well."
Huang Gu nodded, pulled out the Yuzang dagger and handed it back to his mother, then he and Ouyang Bei dragged the body away. Zhao Tong listened to the noise around him for a while, then turned and returned to the house.
Sitting under the lamp, my mother said: "Yuanjiro, did you know that she was spying and eavesdropping?"
Zhao Tong shook his head and said: "If I had known how I would bear to do this, I would have left Huining tomorrow, and there would be nothing else to do after tonight."
The young lady sneered and said, "But maybe she is here to kill you tonight, and it's a shame that you look so compassionate!"
Zhao Tong's eyes suddenly lit up, he looked at his mother and said: "The Thirteenth Mother can actually think of this, it finally has something to do with being clever."
The girl said: "Yuanjiro, what do you mean?"
Zhao Tong smiled and said: "Thirteenth Mother, what you said is very possible. Even if Wanyan Xiyin didn't find any flaws, now that the important task of creating characters is over, it is not completely unreasonable for him to want to kill me. After killing me, In time, the great contribution of creating the Jin Dynasty writing will fall on his head."
The young lady said: "Is that really true?"
Zhao Tong said: "It's very possible. Originally, I was thinking that since I left his stronghold, why would anyone still be monitoring him? But now that you reminded me, Thirteenth Mother, I immediately figured it out."
The young lady fluttered her eyelashes and suddenly asked, "What kind of golden hairpin did you give Jian Yinniang?"
Zhao Tie looked to the side and said, "It's just a random purchase on the shopping street, just for show."
The girl nodded and said, "I'm just curious."
Zhao Tong stood up and walked to the Kang: "Thirteenth Mother, turn off the lights and have a rest early."
The young lady looked at the two sheepskin mats spread out on the kang, and wanted to say something, but stood for a moment, bit her lip, and blew out the light.
With the sound of undressing, the girl quickly got into the quilt, and suddenly she almost screamed, but there was a hand in the quilt.
"Yuanjiro, what are you doing?"
"The place is too narrow, I forgot..." Zhao Tong said.
"Yuanjiro, no one is watching you now, why don't you go sleep over there?" the girl said angrily.
"It's the last night, it's not the same here or there." Zhao Tong said vaguely.
"You, you scoundrel...I'm going to sleep in the room to the west!" The mother said and was about to get up.
"I said, nothing will be the same on the last night." Zhao Tong suddenly moved his arm and held his mother's hand.
"Ah!" The little girl was suddenly caught by Zhao Tao, and her whole body trembled, as if she had been struck by lightning, and her head immediately became a little confused.
"Go to sleep, go to sleep!" Zhao Tong didn't let go, just holding one of his mother's hands. After a while, his breathing calmed down, and he seemed to have fallen asleep.
The little girl stared at him blankly, feeling extremely safe for a moment, but in the next moment, she felt self-blame, regret, anger and various emotions intertwined together. She tried hard to pull her hand away, but she couldn't get it back...
