Huainan, Shouchun, the largest theater Spring Garden

The dream comes back and the orioles turn around, the chaotic years are everywhere, and people stand in small courtyards and deep courtyards.

After pouring all the heavy smoke and throwing away the remaining embroidery thread, will this spring be as sentimental as last year?

The fine silk blew into the courtyard, swaying like a thread of spring. I stopped for a long time to arrange the flowers, but I didn't pick up the water chestnuts and stole half of my face. The colorful clouds were cute. How can I show my whole body when I walk in the fragrant boudoir?

You have a emerald green skirt and a beautiful hairpin with crystal flowers and eight treasures.

·········

·········

Looking at the beauty's graceful figure on the stage, listening to her soft whispers, Xu Benlei's expression became more and more enjoyable after completing his errand.

Since the Zhennan Army was defeated in Hebei and Henan and returned, the demons and monsters in Huainan that were originally suppressed by the Zhennan Army have started to stir up trouble again.

As Xu Zhaojie's cousin and the head of Qianhuwei, the Zhennan Army's intelligence department, Xu Benlei can be said to have been very busy these days.

Either there is a problem in Bozhou or there is a problem in Zhucheng. Even the second largest city, Kangyin, has people who want to rebel!

If we just talk about these monsters and monsters in Huainan, the problem is not that big. After all, many of these people have been suppressed once by the Zhennan Army. Now the remaining people cannot make a big difference, but the problem is that there is a unified coordination among them. figure!

The earliest name of the Coordination Office was Fengzhou Soldiers and Horses Statistics and Investigation Office. Now the name has been changed to the Fengwu Army Coordination and Investigation Office. It is the leading intelligence department under the Fengwu Army. As the Fengwu Army becomes more and more powerful, The Tongtiao Office’s reputation in Dazhou is also growing!

The Qianhu Guard led by Xu Benlei was established because Xu Zhaojie saw the success of the Supervision Department and the Coordination Office and imitated it... ·······

Under Ye Mingsheng's instructions, the Coordination Office has never stopped infiltrating the Huainan and Zhennan armies. However, since the Zhennan Army was defeated in Hebei and Henan, the Coordination Office has become more and more infiltrated, often funding those who oppose Xu Zhaojie. The soldiers and horses were in chaos and even dispatched a group of professional killers to assassinate the civil servants and generals loyal to Xu Zhaojie in Huainan.

In the first half month, the killers from the Coordination Office actually killed seven officials one after another, causing the entire Huainan officialdom to become a turmoil. Xu Zhaojie, who had gone through all kinds of hardships to escape back to Huainan, was extremely angry. He ordered Xu Ben Lei must kill these killers at all costs and maintain the stability of Huainan officialdom!

Xu Benlei, who was aware of Xu Zhaojie's methods, knew very well that if he failed to complete this task, Xu Zhaojie's character would not let him go just because he was his cousin. Faced with the pressure of beheading, Xu Benlei also mobilized all means and connections. , finally created a trap and rounded up the eleven killers who lurked into Huainan from the Coordination Office.

Xu Benlei originally wanted to catch the killers alive, find out some useful information from these killers, and take this opportunity to dig out some information about the organization of the Coordination Office in Huainan, and even who was in charge of the Coordination Office.

Xu Benlei always believed that these killers could have such a big impact in Huainan and kill so many people in a row. It was definitely not enough to rely on the power of the Coordination Office. There must be an insider behind them to provide intelligence to the Coordination Office killers... ················

If this internal source is not found, even if all these killers from the Coordination Office are finally wiped out, the Coordination Office can call in another group of killers and turn Huainan upside down again, so the roots must be eradicated!

Although Xu Benlei's idea is good, these killers sent by the Coordination Office are ruthless men who have been specially trained by the Coordination Office. They are very loyal to Fengwu Army and Ye Mingsheng. When they find a trap and there is no hope of breaking out,

After that, they all chose to commit suicide in order to keep the secret in such a tragic way.

Xu Benlei, whose plot failed, had no choice but to do anything. However, his luck seemed to be very good. Within a few days, his men captured Song Chaosheng, deputy director of Huainan's core intelligence officer. This Song Chaosheng

The bones were very hard at first, and I was tortured for five days in a row, but nothing happened.

Xu Benlei, who was unable to open Song Chaosheng's mouth, was also very anxious. After all, with the always cautious style of the Coordination Office, the Coordination Office personnel lurking in Huainan would inevitably start to retreat once they discovered that there was something wrong with Song Chaosheng. At that time, even if

If Xu Benlei's mouth is pried open, the intelligence effect will inevitably be greatly reduced!

Seeing that Song Chaosheng's mouth could not be knocked open with torture, Xu Benlei changed his strategy and attacked the people around Song Chaosheng. They soon dug out two concubines and an illegitimate son of Song Chaosheng in Shouchun.

After being humiliated and his son being mutilated, Song Chaosheng, who did not give in despite being tortured, finally chose to betray the Coordination Office in grief...

·····

With the information provided by Song Chaosheng, Xu Benlei dug up 13 hidden secrets of the Coordination Office in Shouchun and gained a lot. Not only that, he also dug out the internal agents of the Coordination Office in Huainan, the Liu family of Kangyin, Shouchun

In the spring of the Qu family, the Coordination Office promised these two families that as long as they coordinated the actions of the Coordination Office, they would be supported when the Fengwu army marched to Huainan in the future.

After receiving this information, Xu Benlei immediately handed it over to Xu Zhaojie like a treasure. Xu Zhaojie also realized that the situation in Huainan was unstable, so he also intended to kill people to establish his authority, and used blood and corpses to tell everyone that this Huainan was still his.

Have the final say.

So Xu Zhaojie did not hesitate and immediately ordered Xu Benlei to kill the entire Qu family and Liu family!

After receiving Xu Zhaojie's order, Xu Benlei immediately took action and killed all the thousands of people in the two families together.

After doing this, there were indeed no more officials being assassinated on the ground in Huainan, which also allowed Xu Benlei to report to Xu Zhaojie.

However, the execution of thousands of people can be said to have shocked Huainan, and everyone was once again shocked by Xu Zhaojie's ferocity!

You must know that before Xu Zhaojie took charge of Huainan, Huainan had not seen any aristocratic families being exterminated for decades. But now that Xu Zhaojie has been in charge of Huainan for just over a year, there have been two or three such occurrences. Everyone

They were all silent, wondering if Xu Zhaojie’s butcher’s knife would fall on them next time...

······························

······························

Just when Xu Benlei had completed the task assigned by Xu Zhaojie and was feeling satisfied and happy listening to music in the Spring Garden, several bricklayers walked into the Cao Mansion in Shouchun.

The Cao family was originally one of the big families in Shouchun. It had been standing in Shouchun for a hundred years. When Xu Zhaojie came to Huainan, the Cao family also had the merit of supporting it. The Cao family originally thought that Xu Zhaojie would reuse them.

However, the Cao family never thought that Xu Zhaojie did not trust them at all, and that he was treacherous and did not recognize the previous promises to the Cao family, and only arranged some insignificant powers for the Cao family.

Even in order to better and faster grasp the power of Shouchun, Xu Zhaojie quickly tore off the mask of hypocrisy and launched a round of purges in Shouchun.

Although the Cao family survived the purge because of its support, under Xu Zhaojie's pressure, the Cao family still donated hundreds of thousands of money and food to provide sufficient military supplies for the Zhennan Army!

The third day of next month is the birthday of Cao Chuan, the old man of the Cao family. Although the Cao family is not as prosperous as it used to be, as the saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. The Cao family is also preparing to do something for the old man, so in the past few days

We also found some craftsmen to repair the buildings and floors...

Under the leadership of the servants of the Cao family, these bricklayers arrived at the work place. A Cao family steward looked like he ordered:

"You guys, please beat this ashes!"

After speaking to the steward, he gave instructions to an ordinary-looking bald bricklayer:

"Well, come in with me. There are broken floor tiles in the house. Please re-lay them!"

"yes!"

Under the order of the steward, the bald bricklayer also followed the steward into the room. After entering the side room, the steward opened the door ajar and looked at the bald bricklayer up and down. The bald bricklayer smiled indifferently and said:

He took out a jade pendant from his waist and handed it over.

The Cao family steward took the jade pendant and inspected it carefully, then returned it to the bald bricklayer, and then opened a mechanism in the closet. As the mechanism was opened, a secret passage suddenly appeared on the wall. Seeing this,

The famous Cao family steward whispered:

"follow me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he led the bald bricklayer into the secret passage. After walking in the secret passage for about half a cup of tea, the Cao family steward and the bald bricklayer walked out of the secret passage and came to an antique room.

There a middle-aged man was waiting for him

This person is Cao Huan, the youngest son of Cao Chuan, the old man of the Cao family...

After bringing the person to the house, the steward of the Cao family bowed and left, leaving the bald bricklayer to face Cao Huan's gaze. Under the other's gaze, the bald bricklayer subconsciously touched his bald head and asked the latter to sit down.

Cao Huan, who was in charge, smiled and said:

"Brother Cao, you're welcome and safe!"

In response to the bald bricklayer's greetings, Cao Huan snorted coldly, then shouted loudly and said:

"Catch him!"

As soon as these words were spoken, several well-built servants of the Cao family walked into the room and took the bald bricklayer down. Looking at the controlled bald bricklayer, Cao Huan walked up to him and looked in front of him.

The bald bricklayer with a dull expression said viciously:

"How good you are, Zhang Ren! You actually dare to come! I will hand you over to the Marquis right now!"

Hearing that Zhang Ren, who was the commander of the Fengwu Army, not only did not have the slightest fear, but a faint smile appeared on his face. He faced Cao Huan's fierce eyes and said with a smile:

"Brother Cao, why are you doing this?"

"Since Zhang dares to come today, he is not afraid of death! What's more, since Brother Cao can let me come here, how can you really bear to let me die...

················”

Cao Huan sneered when he heard this, and then punched Zhang Ren hard in the stomach, which made Zhang Ren grin and then said calmly:

"Zhang Ren, are you too arrogant? I brought you here just because I wanted to capture you alive! As long as I catch you, I can defeat these rats that you are commanding in Shouchun! These all belong to the Marquis.

Plan, what do you know?"

Listening to Cao Huan's words, Zhang Ren endured the pain and said with a smile:

"Master Hou's plan? Brother Cao, do you want to laugh to death?"

"If Xu Zhaojie really trusted your Cao family, would the Cao family still be reduced to this situation? Would he let Xu Benlei mix sand with your Cao family?"

After Zhang Ren finished speaking, Cao Huan was still about to say something. At this moment, an octogenarian man slowly walked into the room with the support of his servants and a cane. Seeing the appearance of this old man, he was originally arrogant.

Cao Huan also became submissive. The old man slowly walked up to Zhang Ren and said with some emotion:

"That's right! With people like you on your side, no wonder Marshal Ye has been able to achieve such hegemony in just a few years!"

After saying this, the old man motioned to the servant of the Cao family on the side to let go of Zhang Ren. Zhang Ren, who was let go, also bowed to the old man in front of him and said:

"Zhang Ren from the Coordination Office of Hundred Households has met Mr. Cao!"

After speaking, Zhang Ren paused and said:

"There are hidden dragons and crouching tigers in my Fengwu army. Zhang Ren's meager talent is not worth mentioning! It made the old man laugh..."

Mr. Cao smiled slightly when he heard this, then sat on the chair behind him, and then said leisurely to Zhang Ren:

"Do you know why I say you are good?"
