The man was a little hesitant.
But since the old man said so, he could only nod and prepare to leave.
At this time, the man in the tent asked, "Did someone really transport a lot of gold in the city today?"
"I don't know the specifics, but we saw it from afar. There were at least 30 carriages parked at the entrance of the underground palace. When the carriages left, some of the ropes were broken, so this subordinate guessed that they must be carrying gold …"
"Well …"
The old man nodded.
In an instant, the man was so scared that he trembled all over. He hurriedly knelt down and said, "I'm sorry. I didn't protect the underground palace well. Please punish me, my lord!"
The teapot in the old man's hand paused. ,
He said lightly, "Forget it. This Old Man did it on purpose."
Huh?
The man in black was stunned, but he couldn't ask more, so he had to leave in a hurry.
Everything that had happened that day had been arranged very well. They had prepared at least a thousand good men outside the city, and the man in black was the person in charge of watching the Chang 'an military camp. Once something happened in the city, he would bring his men of sacrifice to burn down the Chang' an military camp, and then take advantage of the chaos to kill Yuchi Gong and Cheng Yaojin. The other group of people was ready to attack the people on the mountain.
The rest of the people were ready to give Li Shimin a big gift tonight.
But when everything was ready, who would have thought that this damned Zhang Feng would actually mess up this originally flawless plan.
Who would have thought that this brat would actually be able to find such a secretive underground palace?
The man in black was a little angry.
But when he saw the figure in the tent, he instinctively felt a little scared.
He didn't know why the lord didn't care about such a big thing in the underground palace at all.
They worked hard for more than a year to collect the materials from all the industries abroad and in the Tang Dynasty.
But they just gave it away.
Not to mention others, the man in black's heart was bleeding at this time.
The man in black glanced at the tent, then lit a cigarette and looked in the direction of Chang 'an City. No one knew what he was thinking. After a while, the man in black seemed to have made up his mind.
He crushed the cigarette in his hand and then rushed into the boundless darkness.
After the man in black left.
The old man seemed to have sensed something and sighed faintly.
Someone immediately asked, "My lord, should we chase the general back?"
The old man in the tent was silent for a long time. Then, he said faintly, "Let him go. The few of you follow him. If there is any news, report it immediately!"
"Yes!"
After seeing that everyone had left, the old man in the tent said faintly, "Pass down the message. Everyone retreat five miles!"
Everyone in the dark was stunned.
However, they did as they were told.
No one knew what the Lord was thinking.
…
Meanwhile.
The black-clothed man followed Cheng Yaojin's men closely all the way until they gradually approached the secret passage. Only then did the black-clothed man use the darkness of the night to slowly hide in the grass. After waiting for Cheng Yaojin's men to leave for a full meal's worth of time, the black-clothed man flashed and entered the secret passage.
The black-robed man was in no hurry.
Leaning against the cold wall of the secret passage, he rested for a moment. Then, he carefully took out a bamboo cage the size of a fist from his arms. There were a few squeaking sounds of mice in the bamboo cage.
The black-clothed man poured the mice in the bamboo cage onto the ground. The mice seemed to be very human. They sniffed the black-clothed man's feet and then carefully entered the secret passage. After a while, the sound of mice squeaking leisurely sounded one after another in the secret passage.
At first, there were only one or two mice. Not long after, the squeaking sounds of the mice became one. At this time, the black-clothed man slowly lay on the ground. His hands and feet tiptoed like an ape as he slowly crawled into the secret passage on the ground.
"Squeak squeak squeak!"
"Ding dong! Ding dong! "
Following the sound that only belonged to the darkness, there was no trace of abnormality. The black-clothed man gathered his courage and slowly stood up.
In this underground palace, there were treasures that could rival the imperial treasury. Today, seeing so many people looting there, it would be a lie to say that he was not moved.
How many brothers have lost their lives for this thing? "
The man in black saw everything that happened in the city today. He watched helplessly as his bodyguard and his brother's home were sealed by the Imperial Guards.
He saw with his own eyes that his former subordinates had to commit suicide in order to keep the secret.
It was all for this thing!
Isn't it just an emptied underground palace? "
When night fell, he had secretly sneaked in and found that there was a lot of gold left after a hurried excavation. His Lord didn't care, the Emperor didn't care, but he cared!
He wasn't a greedy person.
But he had to think of his dead brothers. He wanted to use this money to make their lives better.
He also knew that this was a serious crime that could be beheaded.
This was treason.
Since he followed his Lord to do this, he knew it.
But …
He didn't know why he set foot on this path. Perhaps it was because he believed in it, or because he was attracted by the Lord's reward of being a general.
In his opinion, a man should go to the battlefield.
The Wei River Alliance was a humiliation.
This was not something a man should do. Moreover, it was the Emperor.
The battle at Tong Pass.
Because he failed to stop Xieli Khan, as a Qianhu, he could only watch as his brothers fell one by one. In the end, what could he do?
He could only watch!
In the end, he was even punished for not being able to pass on the military intelligence in time and was removed from his post.
So he was ruthless.
In the end, his Lord found him.
Only then did he decide to join his Lord.
Only then did everything happen today …
Looking at the door close at hand, the black-clothed man's heart surged even more.
He had come to this place more than once. He had come here today and saw with his own eyes that there was nothing here other than the dozens of Imperial Guards above them ….
Li Shimin was really muddle-headed!
He said that he was a soldier, but he couldn't find this place, this secret passage?
He only cared about the money in front of him?
Haha!
This was the real Li Shimin?
Otherwise, how could he do such a stupid thing as the Wei River Alliance?
The black-clothed man's face showed a trace of mockery as he gently pushed open the heavy stone door. But in the next moment, something cold suddenly appeared on his neck.
The black-clothed man's soul almost left his body. ,
Without waiting for him to make any movements.
More Mo Swords were already on his body. At this time, a cold voice slowly sounded, "Don't move!"
