The traitors came out, and for the second group of Xuanwu men who arrived at Hongdu Prefecture, this news was extremely terrifying.

Fortunately, the good news is that when they arrived at Hongdu Prefecture, they were careful not to come together, and after they arrived, they did not gather together and acted together. There was always a person wandering away. No one knew about his existence except the leader knew about his existence.

This person is naturally the sloppy Taoist priest who met Wu Jian in Tengwang Pavilion that day.

It was precisely because he had become more concise and chose to decisively connect with Wu Jian that he finally broke the fact that Zhu Zhuan had betrayed.

After that, they naturally arrested secretly and then took them out of the city for interrogation.

After the sloppy Taoist priest came forward and told the news that he had taken over with Wu Jian, Zhu Zhuan, who had been stubborn before, could no longer bear it, so he had to tell the truth and encourage them to abandon Xuanwu, a broken ship destined to sink, and join him in the ship Ning, which seems to have a broader future.

But unfortunately, Xuanwu may have two-five-child men like him and Chu Xun, but the majority of people who are loyal to Xuanwu are still loyal.

When the number of people is obviously not superior, those who are a little moved dare not show any thoughts. Otherwise, what will be left to them will obviously end up like Zhu Zhuan.

Seeing that his agitation had no effect and knew that he was destined to be unable to escape, Zhu Zhuan decided to pull Wu Jian, a guy who had harmed him to the present level, into the water.

So, he then told the whole story of Wu Jian's intention to surrender to King Ning after he arrived at Hongdu Prefecture. After that, Wu Jian finally successfully gained the trust of King Ning by selling the secret between him and Xuanwu, and the fact that he entered the King Ning's Mansion was fully revealed.

It is difficult for the Xuanwu men to tell the truth about his words. After all, if Wu Jian was really as he said, how could he deliberately leak such important news to them?

But if they said that his words were nonsense, they would not dare to believe them completely. After all, it was related to the life and death of their companions who arrived later, and they would not be careless.

Seeing that they didn't trust them much and knew that they would not live for too long, Zhu Zhuan told them all about the conflict between Ye Xiao and Wu Jian, as well as Ye Xiao's orders him to go to join Wu Jian in the name of Xuanwu's subordinates and test him out.

"Maybe that bastard didn't really surrender to King Ning, but it's certain that he would never abide by the agreement made with Xuanwu. Maybe he would deliberately not expose you for his own safety at this time, and would even help you. But as long as there is an excellent opportunity, he can rely on betraying you for his own exchange for great benefits, he will definitely sell you to King Ning without hesitation. Maybe, at that time, you who have been sold by him will still count the money for him!"

...

While Zhu Zhuan was desperately trying to pull Wu Jian into the water, Ye Xiao was investigating what happened on Tengwang Pavilion ten days ago.

Although more than ten days have passed, the people who were on Tengwang Pavilion at the same time may have left Hongdu Prefecture City long ago. Even if they have not left, it is extremely difficult to find the other party.

But for Ye Xiao, there was no other way, and he didn't want to see Wu Jian gain the trust of King Ning, and he might do something even more harmful to King Ning's safety. No matter how difficult it is, he must do it.

"The emperor will pay attention to those who are determined!"

As soon as the curfew was over every day, the Lord Teng was constantly looking for the person who left Tengwang Pavilion during the time period before and after Wu Jian left Tengwang Pavilion. After three days of busyness, he actually saw a familiar face. He went forward and threatened with bad words. Then he used a two-pronged approach to open the way with silver and found that the other party was the person who was also visiting Tengwang Pavilion that day.

What made Ye Xiao even more ecstatic was that the other party actually remembered what happened that day.

Of course, this is also possible, just because what happened that day was so special that it made his memory very deep.

"Drink all the mountains and rivers in one go, and then drink and swallow the sun and the moon!"

As soon as he heard the other party telling the two extremely arrogant poems that the sloppy Taoist priest read, Ye Xiao immediately thought about it.

Because this is the contact code that Zhu Zhuan asked from the second group of Xuanwu men who arrived at Hongdu Prefecture City.

However, Ye Xiao couldn't help but feel a little suspicious about why he had never heard Zhu Zhuan talk about such a sloppy Taoist priest.

But regardless of whether he doubted whether Zhu Zhuan's disappearance had any hidden secrets he didn't know, for Ye Xiao, there was one thing he could be sure of.

That is, Wu Jian did take over with the second group of Diting Zhong people who arrived under Xuanwu, and probably had exchanged information with each other.

And he had concealed all these things when he reported them before.

This alone is enough to completely lose trust in him.

However, Ye Xiao, who was excited in his heart, did not report this matter to King Ning immediately, but instead made an appointment with Wu Jian first.

Before completely letting Wu Jian lose Ning Wang's trust, he wanted to try whether he could rely on the decisive evidence he had to force Wu Jian to surrender, let Wu Jian tell the mysterious organization behind him, and then try to see if he could force Wu Jian to act as a spy and uncover the veil in that mysterious organization, and at least try to see if he could obtain more secrets from that mysterious organization.

...

Although Wu Jian didn't know why Ye Xiao had to make an appointment with him at this time, he still went to the appointment on time.

He thought he was at the upper hand now and felt confident.

But when Ye Xiao spoke out the two interlocking secret codes and pointed out how big the dozen people on Tengwang Pavilion that day also heard these two lines of poetry, Wu Jian's pride instantly turned into cold sweat on his back.

He knew in his heart that since Ye Xiao dared to directly take this matter as a bargaining chip for negotiations with him, it was enough to prove that King Ning colluded with Ye Xiao and joined forces to test him.

It also proved that the sloppy Taoist priest's absent-mindedness was indeed because the second Xuanwu subordinate who was captured by Ye Xiao should be just a puppet. The real opponent has been moving outside, perhaps in order to take this opportunity to join him and test him.

However, the sloppy Taoist priest took the lead and revealed his identity, which eventually led to the second group of Xuanwu's subordinates who arrived, who took the other party out of the city due to concern and fear.

"What's wrong with these two lines of poetry?"

However, even though his back was wet with cold sweat, Wu Jian still frowned and asked with a dissatisfied tone.

"It's just a arrogant word from a fool, what can it mean?"

"Hmph, you won't cry until you see the coffin."

Seeing that he seemed to be unwilling to give up, Ye Xiao couldn't help but sneer.

"This poem is the second secret code that Xuanwu's subordinates met you. As early as the first day when those idiots arrived in Hongdu Prefecture, King Ning and I knew about this."

Ye Xiao's cold eyes locked at Wu Jian, and his voice was also very cold.

"Hmph, so what? How can you prove that I had been to Tengwang Pavilion that day by your own words?"

Wu Jian seemed to finally calm down, snorted coldly, and spoke without fear and clamored back.

"After all, you had left Hongdu Mansion at that time. Out of trust in me, the prince had not sent anyone to follow me. Even if he was in front of the prince, this was just a story you deliberately made up to shirk the responsibilities of those Xuanwu men."

"Haha, okay."

Ye Xiao was so angry that he couldn't help laughing because of his almost rogue attitude.

"I want to give you the last chance to truly regret it and serve the prince. Since you are so ignorant, I am too lazy to give you this last chance. You can wait to go to the prince to argue."

Ye Xiao slapped the table in anger and stood up, as if he wanted to get up and leave.

But in his heart, he obviously did not really hope that he would really leave. He was expecting Wu Jian to call him.

"Wait a moment!"

As he turned around, Wu Jian's voice sounded in his ears, causing an unexpected smug smile on his face.

"You invited me to come today."

However, unfortunately, Wu Jian called him not to beg for mercy, and asked him what the chance of sincere regret was, but to deliberately play him with it.

"So, when you leave, don't forget to settle the money for these two cups of tea."

"You?! Humph!"

Ye Xiao, who had already turned his face with a little pride, looked at the undisguised sneer on Wu Jian's face, and his face instantly became extremely wonderful. Finally, after a rapid change, it completely darkened. After a angrily snorted, he turned around and left with endless anger.

The reason why Wu Jian suddenly became so tough was entirely because he saw a very familiar face and had just walked into the store.

...

Although Bai Shier and Zhu Jinxuan walked along the route where Zhu Jinxuan had escaped from the palace and headed south, Bai Shier accompanied her to recall those years, but the speed of the two was not slow at all.

The reason why Zhu Jinxuan was anxious was because when Bai Shier accompanied her all the way, she revealed that after going to Hongdu Prefecture and solving the last little trouble, she wanted to take her back to her hometown where she was born and grew up.

In addition to being passively urging Zhu Jinxuan to leave much faster, Bai Shier was also because he had been out for several years and really missed everything at home.

Although there is actually no relative in the so-called family, no one has taken care of his grandfather's grave for so many years. Even though the old man emphasized that he didn't care before leaving, he couldn't take it seriously and didn't care at all.

Moreover, since Zhu Jinxuan would rather give up his status as a princess and stay with him desperately, it is time for him to take Zhu Jinxuan back and let the old man who regretted not being able to see him get married and have children before leaving, and told the old man that he had finally found his partner and planned to get married and have children.

Therefore, after arriving in Yingtian, the two of them hardly stopped in Yingtian, a accompanying capital with many memories of the two. They rode on the merchant ship along the river and headed straight for Hongdu Prefecture. They finally arrived at Hongdu Prefecture today.

The first place they chose was the tea shop they went to when they had just arrived in Hongdu Prefecture in the hot summer, which was also a revisiting place.

What a coincidence is that Ye Xiao is located in a remote place and generally does not have many customers, so he will not disturb his negotiations with Wu Jian, so he also chose this place as the place to meet Wu Jian.

So, when Wu Jian, who was facing the door of the store, was panicked by Ye Xiao's words, he happened to see Bai Shier and Zhu Jinxuan entering the store.

So, Wu Jian, who was originally quite guilty and panicked, instantly felt confident. Even when he finally heard the so-called opportunity that Ye Xiao provided him with obvious bad intentions, he directly played Ye Xiao without hesitation.

...

"That man has left."

The moment he saw Wu Jian, Bai Shier was quite surprised. He did not expect that it would be so coincidental that he had just entered the city and had not yet figured out how to contact Wu Jian.

Then, after seeing Ye Xiao leaving with obviously very stiff relationship with Wu Jian, he naturally guessed Ye Xiao's identity immediately.

"Is he the confidant of King Ning's men?"

"It can be said to be a right-hand man, responsible for training and commanding the dead soldiers under King Ning, and searching for information."

Wu Jian knew Bai Shier's strength very well. Seeing that he was sure Ye Xiao had left directly because of anger, he asked Zhu Jinxuan very restrainedly and politely, and sat directly opposite Bai Shier without any scruples and answered.

"What? He's targeting you?"

Although he only heard a few trivial fragments, Bai Shier was able to guess a lot of content through the stiff atmosphere between Wu Jian and Ye Xiao.

"Ha, I have never calmed down after entering the Ning Prince's Mansion."

Wu Jian couldn't help but shake his head and smiled bitterly.

"Although he has been investigating me before, he has not found anything useful. However, this time, it is really troublesome."

Wu Jian naturally would not have any reservations about Bai Shier. Even though he had guessed Zhu Jinxuan's identity, he guessed that Bai Shier and Zhu Jinxuan were probably not leaving the capital for a suitable reason and route this time. He could not understand why the two gave up the life that others were envious and fled from the capital, but it did not prevent him from telling the two of them all the experiences he had experienced these days and the big troubles this time.

After all, he, who was the double spy between Xuanwu and Ning Wang, actually his real identity was the secret son of the court and the emperor. Moreover, it was Bai Shier who had let him go south to sneak into the Ning Wang Mansion. It was impossible for him to harm him when he had already sneaked into the Ning Wang Mansion and had initially gained Ning Wang's trust.

"Since that's the case, I'll help you solve this biggest problem before leaving."

After hearing Wu Jian's words, Bai Shier looked calm and gentle, as if he was talking about what to eat tonight.
