Jinling.

It was already dark when Qi Yue and the others arrived at Jinling City. The lights were brightly lit along the Qinhuai River. Cruise ships and boats were lined up passing by on the river. The three-story high boats were decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations. Under the verandah, women dressed in colorful clothes were waving their red hats.

She fanned and waved to the man on the shore.

There were bursts of music and the melodious and charming female singing coming from the boat, which made people fascinated.

From time to time, a woman would hold a man's arm and stand by the railing to enjoy the night view.

Although it was already summer, the night wind was still a bit chilly. Qi Yue was wearing thin clothes and couldn't help but shiver.

"It's hard to come to such a prosperous place. Let's find a better inn to stay in and eat some local specialties?" Qi Yue asked after catching up with Yin Baiyi.

Yin Baiyi refused directly, "We are not here for fun, don't think about these things, just remember your mission."

Qi Yue was speechless and punched Yin Baiyi's back, "You're a guy who doesn't know how to enjoy yourself."

"That's right," Zhao Zhao was already seduced by the beauties on the cruise ship. "He who only remembers the missions and came to this lavish Jinling City, not to mention having fun on the boat, a man like him will definitely not be able to find a wife in the future.

.”

"Say it as if you can get it," Qi Yue curled his lips and followed Yin Baiyi helplessly.

Early the next morning, Yin Baiyi went out and took the baggage Duan Mufeng gave him with him. Qi Yue's attempt to steal something was in vain.

They found an inn closest to the residence of Bai Chuan, the prefect of Jinling, and chose a room facing the street to stay.

"Keep your voice down!" Qi Yue reminded Zhao Zhao, turning to ask Yin Baiyi, "Where is that girl now?" She had an idea in her mind.

Zhao Zhao nodded, "That's it. There are two gates in the Bai Mansion. The first gate is the one we can see from the window. It is the most tightly guarded. There is also a back gate, which is not strictly guarded. There are only two servants guarding it.

Now, go in through the back door and walk around a courtyard on the left, then turn right through a garden, which is Bai Chuan's bedroom. We can go in through the back door then, or we can retreat from there. After exiting the back door, we will find a remote alley.

Normally no one moves around.”

Yin Baiyi nodded in agreement.

In the afternoon, Yin Baiyi came back. As soon as he closed the door, Yin Baiyi said: "There is a happy event in Bai Mansion recently."

Yin Baiyi shook his head, "Bai Chuan is hidden. I was afraid that the girl would run away. I searched for a long time but couldn't find it."

"Ah?" Qi Yue was shocked. She looked at Zhao Zhao who was also shocked, "Then Bai Chuan is fifty years old, so why are they getting married now? Besides, didn't you say that his wife died just a few years ago?

"

"Do you know where the yard is?"

Qi Yue: "What about you, Zhao Zhao, have you figured out the layout of the Bai Mansion?"

In the evening, Zhao Zhao also went out.

After hearing this, Yin Baiyi thought about it and nodded in agreement. This is the most reliable way.

Before moving in, Yin Baiyi took a look. If you open the window in this direction, you can see the situation in front of the Bai Mansion.

Qi Yue stood by the window and watched, "Did anyone want to get married during this battle?"

Qi Yue and Zhao Zhao pestered Yin Baiyi to order a table of Jinling City specialties for them. After dinner, Qi Yue briefly discussed the plan of action.

Zhao Zhao was very satisfied that Qi Yue recognized his skill. He patted his chest and said, "No problem, I'll take care of it."

"Zhao Zhao, you steal things... No, you have a skill and you can walk without making any noise, which is suitable for other people's homes. In the past two days, you can find a way to visit Baichuan's mansion a few times and take the people in the mansion.

We can roughly figure out the layout diagram so that we can easily plan how the task will be carried out."

After hearing this, Qi Yue thought for a moment and said: "In this way, our assassination will be carried out on the day of Bai Chuan's wedding. First, on the day of Bai Chuan's wedding, there will be a lot of people in the Bai Mansion. The large number of people can cover our whereabouts, and on that day Bai Chuan

It's inevitable to drink a lot of wine

, he is old and drunk, so the assassination will be much easier. When it gets dark, Zhao Zhao will take us to Bai Chuan's bedroom. After entering, he will knock the girl unconscious and hide it, and I will pretend to be her.

Do it when Bai Chuan enters the bridal chamber and lifts the hijab!"

Qi Yue: "I also saw several carts of wedding gifts coming to the gate of Bai Mansion today. I was just going to ask you, whose happy event is it? Is Bai Chuan's son or daughter getting married?"

Yin Baiyi shook his head, "No, it's Bai Chuan who wants to get married."

Qi Yue: "Yin Baiyi, you put on a disguise in the past few days and passed by the gate of Bai Mansion a few times to take a look at the situation at the gate. Naturally, it is not convenient for me, a wanted man in the city, to show up, so I will stay in the room and wait for you to come back.

Bar."

Qi Yue had nothing to do and could only sit by the window and stare at the intersection in front of Bai Mansion all day long.

"This is so inhuman," Zhao Zhao said with disdain on his face, "This guy is fifty years old, he can be the grandfather of a little girl, and he still wants to forcefully marry him, I'm really disgusted! He is worse than a beast and deserves to be killed!"

"It was said that the girl refused to obey, so Baichuan spent a lot of money to bribe the girl's parents. After her parents agreed, Baichuan ordered someone to pick up the girl and place her in a yard near Baifu to facilitate the marriage."

On the morning of the third day, several horse-drawn carriages suddenly stopped at the gate of the White Mansion. The carriages were filled with red boxes and lanterns and red silk. The servants of the White Mansion came and went carrying things to and fro.

They moved it around the house, and some pulled red silk and hung it on the stone lion at the gate.

After the plan was agreed upon, the three of them stayed in the room and did not go anywhere.

Three days later in the evening, Qi Yue and the other three each wore ordinary clothes over black linen clothes. The three of them hid their knives in their clothes and walked towards the back door of the Bai Mansion.

Qi Yue stood in front of the window and took a general look. Baichuan's mansion was very big. If he wanted to assassinate him, he had to first find out the route of his mansion so that he could sneak in and retreat easily.

Yin Baiyi: "I heard that he went to the countryside not long ago to deal with something, and he fell in love with a little girl in the village. He married her by force, and the ceremony will take place in three days."

Bai Chuan got married today, and the Bai Mansion was very lively. The whole White Mansion was shrouded in joy. The guests who came to eat and drink smiled and gave congratulatory gifts and walked in from the door. Bai Chuan dressed in wedding clothes and led people to greet him at the door. He has reached the new year.

He is fifty, but he has taken good care of himself. He does not look old. In addition, people are in high spirits during happy events. His face is full of spring breeze at this moment, but he looks much younger.

Today, everyone in the White Mansion gathered in the front yard to drink and have a feast. There were only two servants guarding the back door. Qi Yue and the other three went to the alley by the back door and took off their coats to reveal the black clothes underneath. Under the cover of the night, the three of them

The black figure is very hidden.

Qi Yue and Yin Baiyi hid on both sides of the door. Zhao Zhao silently jumped up the wall and jumped over and landed behind the two servants. The two servants were unconscious.

Zhao Zhao slashed the back of the servant's neck with two hand knives, and the servant fell to the ground. Zhao Zhao dragged the two of them to a hidden place and hid them, then turned around and opened the door to let Qi Yue and Yin Baiyi in.
