Chapter 688

After nightfall!

The night of January in Jingcheng was even more bone-chillingly cold!

At a central pavilion in the back courtyard of the Miaoyin Workshop.

Gong Yu, wearing a green patterned outer garment and a purple inner garment, pushed open two windows and looked at the scenery outside!

Looking up at the sky, snowflakes were dancing in the air.

Large flakes of snow were falling from the dark sky.

In an instant, the pavilions, eaves, and streets were all shrouded in white snow.

Like the sea, it could drown everything.

Looking out from the pavilion on the high building, it was like rolling snow-capped mountains.

The wind roared, and because it was too cold.

She had to close the windows again.

"Gong Yu, what's wrong with you, frowning."

At this moment.

There were two other people in the room.

The oldest one was called Thirteen, a loyal servant of the Lin Mansion, who had listened to the orders of Lin Shu's mother, Princess Jinyang, in his early years, so he called Mei Changsu "Little Master."

Over the years, he had been operating the Miaoyin Workshop with Gong Yu, and secretly collecting intelligence for the Jiangzuo Alliance, supervising and restraining Red Sleeve Recruitment.

Another person, a middle-aged man with a sloppy mustache on his lips and an ordinary, even slightly ugly face, was called Tong Lu, who was a member of the Jiangzuo Alliance, responsible for the connection between the Su Mansion and the outside world, and played a pivotal role.

Later, he liked Jun Niang and was killed by the intercepting soldiers. Of course, Jun Niang was already Jia Hui's person now and didn't meet him.

Thirteen looked at Gong Yu's expression and asked suspiciously.

Gong Yu had willow-leaf eyebrows and phoenix eyes, jade skin and snow-white skin, and her temperament was dignified, without any weakness.

Even in plain clothes, she looked like a fairy.

Although she didn't make the Langya List.

In fact, it wasn't just that her beauty wasn't enough.

It was just that the Langya Pavilion deliberately didn't let her make the list.

Gong Yu felt inexplicably irritable and said: "Uncle Thirteen, I don't know why today, I feel uneasy."

Uncle Thirteen immediately became solemn.

He knew.

Gong Yu's sixth sense had always been very accurate, helping their Miaoyin Workshop avoid many crises.

Therefore, compared to the indifferent Tong Lu.

Uncle Thirteen became cautious.

But because of this groundless emotion, he didn't know how to deal with it.

He could only say: "Then let our people be cautious recently, and don't take action for the time being."

"Hmm!"

Gong Yu could only agree.

"However, Brother Tong, your top priority now is to go back to the Su Mansion and tell the Sect Master this important intelligence."

"According to our investigation over the past month, it can be determined... those eight new scholars who suddenly appeared, all have a deep relationship with Jia Hui, and are very likely his confidants!"

"In addition to these civil officials."

"Those people like Lu Bu and Zhou Yu who were sent out are not simple! They are likely his subordinates!"

"Although I don't know how he did it, making so many top talents willing to be his subordinates."

"But they are undoubtedly his people."

"In addition, the cases he solved before, where a large amount of stolen goods were lost, I think it also has to do with him! Ling Buyi was framed!"

"And his Wushuang Marquis Mansion is airtight, and our people can't infiltrate it."

"Judging from his various abnormal situations."

"This Wushuang Marquis must have big problems, and is not as loyal and patriotic as he appears on the surface."

"Be sure to pass this news back and inform the Sect Master!"

Gong Yu looked at Tong Lu.

Reminding him carefully.

If Jia Hui were present, he would definitely be amazed!

He thought he was careful enough.

He didn't expect this girl to still be able to investigate so much news.

And be certain that Jia Hui had problems!

Tong Lu knew the seriousness of the matter.

So, he immediately said: "Okay, I will return immediately to tell the Sect Master."

Without saying much.

He immediately set off and left quietly through the back door.

Watching Tong Lu leave.

Gong Yu's uneasy irritability became even stronger!

This made Gong Yu slightly heavy.

"Uncle Thirteen, should you send someone to follow and protect him? I'm afraid Brother Tong will have an accident."

Uncle Thirteen didn't hesitate after hearing this: "I will arrange it immediately."

So, he left Gong Yu's place.

After a moment of silence, Gong Yu let out a light sigh: "I hope my premonition is wrong."

Speaking of Tong Lu.

After leaving the Miaoyin Workshop.

He hurried towards the Su Mansion.

But after walking two streets, he discovered an abnormality.

"What's going on? Isn't there still some time before the curfew? Why is there no one on the road so quickly."

Tong Lu was instantly alert!

Then the sound of footsteps came!

Tong Lu immediately pulled a short knife from his bosom!

Then he discovered that there were people in front of and behind him!

His path was blocked!

Tong Lu's heart sank, thinking of the important intelligence he hadn't passed to Mei Changsu, he whispered: "Who are you?"

The people didn't speak, but the murderous intent was strong!

About ten elites.

Directly pulled out hand crossbows!

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!"

Tong Lu, who originally planned to fight in close quarters, couldn't dodge such a large number of crossbow arrows.

Ten shots per crossbow!

Adding up to one hundred shots!

Who could withstand this!

Thinking everyone was like that.

Even the Little Conqueror of Jiangdong couldn't withstand the close-range ambush of such hand crossbows.

So ancient dynasties usually didn't ban swords, and didn't even ban bows, but without exception, they strictly banned crossbows and armor!

Crossbows in close quarters and street fighting.

Are equivalent to being swept by rifles!
