I made a fortune by marrying a sickly woman!
Chapter 358 An Unquiet Night
This is a hidden entrance to the underground passage.
Qin Chi had not just discovered this, and the look he had just shown was actually just an act.
The officers from the Dali Temple went down first to explore the way.
As expected, a secret underground passage was discovered.
That day, the news of the spy being caught reached Yan Jiangnan. "How did he get caught suddenly?"
"When they were following Qin Qian'an, they were spotted by the Jinyiwei who were passing by. Three of them were captured. According to information, the three were secretly locked up and no one else was allowed to visit them." The person who came back to report said quickly.
Yan Jiangnan put down the scroll in his hand and asked, "Caught in the daytime?"
"Qin Qi'an took the Dali Temple's officers to a house in Jinhai Hutong. That house was our base two years ago, and we withdrew because it was attacked..."
"Wait! The house in Jinhai Hutong? Why would Qin Qian'an suddenly go there?" Yan Jiangnan looked surprised and confused.
The man reported: "He said he found something suspicious when he looked through the files from last year."
The Dali Temple was originally the department responsible for reviewing various cases.
Qin Qian'an noticed the suspicious case and naturally wanted to investigate it.
The reasons are very good.
Yan Jiangnan was about to say something when someone outside came to report, "Mr. Yan, it's bad. The entrance to the secret passage in Jinhai Hutong in Dongcheng has been discovered by the Dali Temple and the Jinyiwei!"
The secret passage in West City was forced to be evacuated and scrapped.
Many of the evacuated personnel simply hid themselves. Especially when the master wanted to start a rebellion, some people sneaked into the capital and hid in secret passages.
This news caught Yan Jiangnan off guard.
He quickly got up and walked out to meet his master.
He had just reached the door of his master's bedroom.
Just as the person guarding the door was about to report, someone else came in and reported: "Mr. Yan, it's bad! Our bases in Jinbao Street, Wu'an Hutong and Qin'an Hutong have been discovered by the government!"
"Is this true?"
Yan Jiangnan was stunned again.
These things happened one after another, almost at the same time. Yan Jiangnan didn't believe it if no one had arranged it in advance. He hurried forward and knocked on the master's door.
There was a rapid knock on the door.
A man roared from the door, "Get out!"
"My lord, it's me, I have an urgent matter." Yan Jiangnan responded.
The people inside stopped cursing.
A moment later, the door opened from the inside, and a woman with messy clothes and hair appeared. She lowered her head, opened the door, and then stepped aside.
Wait for Yan Jiangnan to enter the house.
The woman lowered her head and walked out, closing the door behind her.
When Yan Jiangnan entered, he saw a large screen in front of the bed, covering the bed, and the person inside was getting dressed.
The man asked, "What's the emergency?"
"Master, the entrance to the secret passage in Jinhu Hutong in Dongcheng was discovered, and then several strongholds were discovered by the government." Yan Jiangnan finished the story quickly.
"boom!"
There was a loud noise from the other side of the screen. "It's Qin Qian'an again! Did he find out that we were trying to trip him up?"
"It's possible."
Yan Jiangnan once again paid attention to this top scholar from a poor family.
Why does it seem like he's always there every time they get into trouble?
The person on the other side of the screen said sternly, "Send someone to get rid of him! I don't want him to see tomorrow's sun again."
Someone took the order and left.
Yan Jiangnan did not stop him, "What about the secret passage in East City?"
"Hurry up and have people evacuate. Let as many as possible escape." The other party gave the order decisively.
But he had just said this.
Someone else came to report in a hurry, "Master, the entrances and exits of all the streets in East City have been blocked by the Jinyiwei and Wucheng Bingmasi!"
"not good!"
Mr. Yan was shocked and blurted out.
Catching a turtle in a jar? !
Realizing this, Mr. Yan's face turned pale.
He had been arrogant for half his life and had been planning for so many years. He thought he could easily seize the world, but when it came to the last moment, he made mistakes one after another.
Mr. Yan said: "My Lord, East City has been exposed!"
At this moment, the man inside sneered, "Hasn't it been exposed a long time ago? The West City has been discovered, and the people in charge of the East City are not fools. I believe that the entrance to Jinhai Hutong has been sealed by now. The people in the secret passage will be fine for a while. How do you think about breaking the situation?"
"Lure the tiger away from the mountain and attack from the east."
Mr. Yan made a plan in a flash.
Night falls.
The atmosphere in the capital was extremely tense.
The city gates were closed early and the streets were empty.
The shops in the city had already closed their doors and windows, and the lanterns on both sides cast a dim yellow light, reflecting the mottled shadows on the stone road. As the night deepened, the dull sound of drums sounded, announcing the beginning of the curfew.
Qin Chi had already explained everything to Captain Chen.
Manpower was mobilized in advance to block all street entrances.
The people in the city hid in their homes and could often hear the hurried sound of horse hooves and footsteps outside.
The officers and soldiers were dressed in armor and held spears.
Wandering between the streets and alleys.
Their footsteps were more orderly and heavy, which was very different from the walking of ordinary people. Therefore, just by listening to the sound, the people in the city knew that there were soldiers passing by their homes.
The goal is to search for hidden people.
Externally, it is to catch criminals.
The officers and soldiers searched house by house, and every time they opened a door, it would cause dogs to bark and shouts of panic.
From time to time there would be news of fighting somewhere.
At a street corner on East Street, there is an entry and exit checkpoint, and a team of soldiers holding torches are guarding it.
Qin Chi and Chen Qianhu stood side by side.
At the entrance of Jinhai Hutong, the personnel searched for a while when they entered and encountered two or three mechanisms. After that, the secret passage was interrupted and blocked by a stone door.
Qin Chi used the interconnected secret passages in West City as a reference and knew that the people behind the scenes reacted in time and sealed the passages, so it would take some time to dig through them.
"Master Qin, what force do you think is behind this?"
The more Captain Chen investigated, the more frightened he became.
Qin Chi pulled his gaze back and glanced at him, "You are a force that neither you nor I can afford to offend. Do you regret it?"
They had accomplished a great deed, but they had also caused a great mess. The people behind the scenes might even want to eat them alive.
"call out!"
A slight sound of breaking through the air suddenly sounded.
"Be careful, son!"
Qin Ba suddenly pounced on Qin Chi.
Almost at the same time, a cold light passed by Qin Chi and fell to the ground not far away. It was a long arrow.
Old Huo quickly drew his sword and blocked Qin Chi.
Qin Ba and Old Li formed a triangle formation almost at the same time, protecting Qin Chi in the middle. The three of them swiftly blocked several sneak arrows, but the opponent's target was still Qin Chi.
The person behind the scenes was determined to kill Qin Chi.
"Protect Master Qin!"
Captain Chen shouted loudly.
A group of soldiers immediately surrounded Qin Chi.
With such a human wall, it would be difficult to kill Qin Chi from behind.
The next moment, in the night, several killers tried to escape.
Several figures flashed out of the darkness and chased after the killer.
