Chapter 362 Rainy Night Conspiracy

8days ago Historical fiction 7
The next morning, Xuehen agreed to Duan Yang and worked hand in hand.I'm afraid Duan Yang had guessed this result before...

Mu Bin lives in a house west of the imperial city, not far from the old mansion of the King of Han.

Duan Yang told Xuehen that over the past few months, she had already figured out the mansion of the Mu family in the capital.

The insiders, grooms, guards, gardeners, and servants were all hawks in the court, and most of them were from the Jinyiwei.

However, there were no guards outside the mansion.

There were also many people around Mu Bin who followed him from Yunnan to Beijing, and were sent to Mu Mansion.Among them is a burly butler, who was once the Mu Mansion's general, and occasionally went out to buy things.

Several days after Duan Yang left Beijing, Chen Wu, the Mu family general, finally left.The group led the horses straight south, heading towards the Shangyuan County Government, and soon arrived at a downtown street with shops on both sides.

The street was noisy, and many merchants stood outside the door to greet guests, and the hawking sounds could be heard everywhere.

After a while, a woman with very white skin came out of a shop and held a can and said: Are you from Yunnan?There are fermented black beans, cooked tea, and Panax notoginseng. Come in and take a look.

How do you know I am from Yunnan?Chen Wu said in surprise, speaking with an Yunnan accent.

The woman said: How can we not see if we sell too much of our stuff to people in Yunnan?Why don’t you give you a can of fermented black beans first.If you think it's good, come back next time.The woman gave the jar in her hand to her house without saying a word, but stuffed something between his fingers.

Chen Wu's expression changed slightly. He glanced at the woman and said: How can you be embarrassed?

The woman had turned around and walked into the shop.

...The woman just now was Duan Xueheng, and the shop was not hers either.

However, she told the shopkeeper that she gave him enough money and rented a small house to store Yunnan local products. She also used Duan Yang's story of finding his husband for thousands of miles and told him to the shopkeeper.

Women are always more sympathetic, especially those who are beautiful, and the deal is successfully negotiated.

After two moments, Chen Wu really came to the shop again. He asked his men to watch out for the horse and walked into the shop alone.

As soon as Chen Wu walked in, Duan Xueheng called out: Yunnan goods are here, please invite the guest.

Chen Wuyiyan followed her over.

The two of them walked into the hut, and there was indeed a lot of goods piled up inside.

Duan Xueheng immediately took off a hairpin from her hair, pulled it hard, and the hairpin turned into two pieces. She actually twisted out a roll of paper from it and handed it to Chen Wu silently.

The manager Chen Wu opened his eyes and his face changed suddenly.

The above is Mu Sheng’s handwriting, which says: The capital is in crisis, Wu takes Bin back to Yunnan as soon as possible.

He glanced at Duan Xueheng and looked at the words on it again.

Of course those words were imitated by Xueheng.

Duan Yang learned the word Mu Ying at that time; Xueheng practiced the word Mu Chun, but Mu Chun died young, and Xuehen practiced the word Mu Sheng for several years.

Duan Yang tried his best to persuade Xuehen to work together, probably because Xuehen had this ability.

However, fakes are always fake. If you take out Mu Sheng's handwriting and carefully compare the words on this piece of paper, you should be able to see the clues; but at first glance, it is very similar and difficult to distinguish.

Duan Xueheng said in a deep voice: Have you seen it clearly?

Chen Wu nodded.

Duan Xuehen reached out to bring the note over, put it in front of Chen Wu, and swallowed it.

Chen Wu was stunned for a moment, but soon looked stunned. He asked: What's your name?

Duan Xueheng said: This is not important.

Chen Wu said again: Why haven’t I seen you before?

Duan Xuehen said: There are many people from Mu's house that General Chen has never seen before.

Chen Wu seemed a little hesitant, and Duan Xuehen just waited silently.

What she has always done, whether it is snooping or assassination, is not sure to succeed; on the contrary, it fails a lot, so it is necessary for them to think of a way out for escape every time they do things.

The early preparations are always to confuse the opponent, and there is always a possibility that the false surface will be discovered.She has never felt at ease over the years.In addition to being in the Han Palace in the past few years.

At this moment, Chen Wu said: Do you go back to the Mu Mansion in the capital with me first?

Duan Xuehen nodded and said: It is best to be as soon as possible. Once the court starts to suspect, the marquis’s son may not be able to leave.

So Chen Wu asked his men to enter the shop, and moved all the goods that Duan Xuehen had stored in the cottage to the horse's back, tied them with a rope, and transported them back to Mu's mansion.

When the group returned home, Chen Wu's official identity was useless. The servants in the doorman searched the things they bought and asked Duan Xuehen who was.

Perhaps because she was a woman, she said she was a cook who could cook Yunnan cuisine, so she was not embarrassed.

Duan Xueheng was temporarily arranged to the kitchen.In the afternoon, with Chen Wu's recommendation, she met the prince of the Xiping Hou Mu Bin.

Mu Bin is a boy in his teens, looking like an adult, as if he was deliberately imitating the majestic expression of the Marquis. He spoke like a master, but he was a little cute.

When Duan Xuehen saw him, somehow he naturally felt a little close.

She had never lived in the Mu Mansion, but after knowing her life experience, she often felt the seemingly involuntary involvement when she saw the Mu family.

After dinner, Chen Wu asked Duan Xuehen to come to his bedroom.When Duan Xuehen walked to the door, he saw the servant who was sweeping the yard and watching her teasingly in the distance.

Next to the stable, there will be a groom on duty at night, not ours.There is a back door on the kitchen, and there are two slaves guarding it, and they are not ours.Chen Wu said in a deep voice.

Duan Xuehen said: The morning bell rings at the fifth hour of Yin in the capital. When you are ugly, you will lead two fast horses to the back door. Let us go to another place to hide first.I will deal with those three people in advance.

Chen Wu said worriedly: Is there nothing wrong?The two people at the back door seemed to be soldiers of the Jinyi Guard.

Duan Xuehen looked at him coldly and said: Tell me the certain position, there will definitely be no mistakes.

Chen Wu nodded.

The two of them talked about it for a while, and Duan Xueheng went out.Seeing that the servant who was sweeping the floor had not finished scanning, he looked up at her again.

After midnight, Duan Xuehen took off her dress outside, which was a narrow dark underwear inside. She found a cloth belt to tie her waist. This dress was easy to hide and move at night.

She stood behind the door and observed the movement, then opened a crack in the door and walked out.

The outer wall of the Mu Mansion is very high and difficult to climb, but the wall of the inner house is only more than one person tall.

Duan Xuehen skillfully climbed up the brick wall and left the inner house without even making any sound.

She walked to the stable and saw the groom lying half-lying on a rattan chair with a blanket. She walked over, covered the groom's mouth and nose with her left hand, and stretched out her right hand and slapped her with a palm on the groom's chin!

The groom didn't even say a word, and continued to lie softly on the rattan chair.

Then Duan Xueheng went to knock out the two soldiers at the back door.

After a while, Chen Wu indeed came with Mu Bin and two horses.Chen Wu did not forget to wrap cloth around the horse's hooves and put the horse's mouth cage.The three of them opened the back door and walked out quietly.

Under the eaves outside, there were a few lanterns hanging in the sky, and the light on the long street was hazy.There is a quiet surroundings, and in the early morning, it is probably the time when people sleep the most.

Unexpectedly, they had just walked out of the back door, closed the door and walked a few steps, and suddenly someone shouted: Who is it?

Duan Xueheng was shocked and thought to himself: Didn’t Duan Yang understand the details here long ago, and there are no guards outside?

Chen Wu was also shocked and hurriedly carried Mu Bin on the back.Duan Xueheng said: I can’t leave the city anymore!You guys go home immediately, I'll leave first.

Just then, a sudden thud sounded!No scream was heard, only Chen Wu shouted in a horrified voice.Duan Xueheng turned his head and looked at it, then saw a familiar woman's back.

When Duan Xuehen turned around, he saw a crossbow arrow inserted on the back of Mu Bin's head. Chen Wu was hugging Mu Bin, who was tilted on the horse's back, and he raised his head and cried.

The door of a room across the street was already opened, and several men ran out with knives in their hands.

Duan Xueheng looked at the crossbow arrow on Mu Bin's head again, as if the crossbow arrow was stabbing her heart!

Her whole body was covered in coldness. She gritted her teeth and pulled out half of the bamboo chopsticks from her cuffs, took two steps forward, and stabbed Chen Wu's temple accurately.

Then she turned around and ran, exactly where the woman's back ran away just now.

At this time, raindrops as big as beans suddenly sprinkled in the sky, and Duan Xueheng's whole body quickly became wet.Her eyes were blurred, tears fell down, but there was no crying, and her feet did not stop.

Xuehen suddenly realized at this moment: Duan Yang had never planned to save Mu Bin!Over the past few months, Duan Yang had completely figured out the situation in the Mu Mansion and had the determination to assassinate from the beginning!

But it was almost impossible for Duan Yang to kill Mu Bin. The Mu Mansion was very cautious inside and outside, and it was difficult to sneak in; the mansion was not small, and it was difficult to find the room where Mu Bin slept for a while.

Only by relying on Xueheng to sneak into Mu's mansion with Mu Sheng's handwriting and lure Mu Bin out first can we suddenly kill.

Moreover, isn’t it something Duan Yang happy to see that the Mu family harmed the Mu family?

Xueheng was filled with regret, and she kept cursing herself in her heart.

Just because Duan Yang said that she was not in enough staff, she wanted to go to Huguang; a few days later, Xuehen mistakenly thought Duan Yang had left Beijing and did not realize that this hint was the fatal trap... This is Xuehen’s most wrong thing!

There is also Duan Yang who always talks about the grace of raising him for twenty years, and these words all imply that he hates him: maybe Duan Yang may have even a hint of warmth to himself in addition to hatred.

When we can reach a consensus, we can still have a temporary exchange.

Only now did I realize how thoroughly I was wrong!

Mu Bin's cute expression as if he was an adult appeared in front of Xuehen again in the cold rainy night.She was still running in the rain, but she felt that she was just a walking corpse.
