This time, the general surnamed Qian was selected to lead this group of hundreds of warriors. The reason why Zhao Guogong chose him was firstly that he was loyal and brave, and secondly that he was quick-witted besides bravery.
He gathered everyone in one place and said: "There is still some time before Youshi, now we divide our troops into two places, one goes to lurk at the gate of the city, waiting for the signal outside the city; It’s best done before.”
"General, the manpower from the dungeon has been mobilized to put out the fire."
"Very good, who wants to go to the prison with me?"
"The end will be willing to go."
The burning yard and the dungeon are not on the same street, or even in the same jurisdiction, but they are very close, just two streets away.
Zhao Guogong and other generals discussed it in detail, and they believed that burning this courtyard would attract the inspectors from the Tianlao to put out the fire as soon as possible. After that group of people were missing, they would just pretend to be Goguryeo government servants to go in.
The clothes were all prepared in advance, and they were taken from the yamen in the small town. Although they were a bit old, the style of the clothes was the same as those in the domestic city, and there was no difference at first glance.
Qian Shenjiang led forty-nine people to change into clothes, and rushed outside the prison with a big knife in his arms.
The sky prison was looser than they had imagined, and the two guards at the gate were standing on tiptoes watching the fire not far away.
The fire was too big, and there was a feeling that it would burn over.
General Qian Shen stepped forward and reprimanded in Mandarin: "What are you doing? This is how you usually stand guard?"
The two yamen servants shrank their necks from being reprimanded, and then looked at the brand new clothes on his body. Except for his, the clothes of the other soldiers were picked up from the previous yamen servants in the small town, and his was made after Gao Zhi told him. The style of the official.
As expected, the other party lowered his head and didn't dare to look at General Qian anymore, because he just made a mistake, he even forgot the rules of entering and exiting the dungeon, and let him in directly.
Qian Shenjiang led the people in with a serious face. What he didn't expect was that some of the prison guards were also transferred to put out the fire, so there were not many guards in the prison at this time.
Qian Shenjiang glanced back at his comrades calmly, and when he saw the cell leader, he took out an official document and said, "The fire is hard to control. Your Majesty is afraid that the fire will spread here, so he sent me to escort you." The fifth prince and the mission will be imprisoned in another place."
The jailer opened the official document and saw that the seal on it was correct, and even the handwriting was somewhat familiar, but why did the people in the palace bring this kind of official document in person
Shouldn't his boss send it to him
The cell boss was hesitating, and General Qian Shen urged impatiently: "Hurry up and arrest people, if the fire spreads and hurts the Fifth Prince and the mission, can you bear it?"
The prison chief was startled, and quickly asked, "What about the other prisoners?"
"This is your own business, just follow your superior's orders and ask me what to do?" General Qian Shen said arrogantly: "I am only responsible for the safety of the fifth prince and the mission."
The prison chief took out a money bag from his chest and stuffed it into the hands of General Qian Shen, and asked in a low voice: "Please give me some advice, my lord, the king is still talking about the fifth prince and the mission, do you want to..."
Qian Shenjiang glanced at him, put the money bag into his arms, and said with a serious face: "It's fine to keep some words in your heart, but you can't say them out."
The face of the jailer changed. He didn't expect that the rumors in the streets and alleys turned out to be true recently. The emperor might surrender to Jin like the second and fifth princes, so he kept the fifth prince and the missionaries for the sake of reconciling with Jin in the future. State confession.
General Qian Shen urged: "Hurry up, the king is still waiting to see someone."
The head of the cell took the key with a dazed expression and went to pick him up with them. He first opened the door of the fifth prince's cell, and when he opened it, he looked up and saw the face of the fifth prince. He instantly sensed something was wrong, and was startled, "No, no, You are not..."
Qian Shen will take out his knife and wipe his neck before he finished speaking.
The cell leader fell down with wide-eyed eyes, and several guards in the cell were immediately silenced by the soldiers.
Qian Shenjiang glanced back, and when he saw that there were no mistakes or omissions, he gave someone a wink and asked him to take people out to clean up the people outside.
He opened the cell door and said to the fifth prince whose hands and feet were trembling inside: "Fifth prince, Your Majesty sent me to rescue you."
The fifth prince's eyes lit up, and he asked in surprise, "Your Majesty sent you to rescue me?"
"That's right," General Qian Shen nodded perfunctorily, and asked, "Where is Mr. Zhang?"
"next door."
Qian Shen will immediately turn around and look for Zhang Hui.
The accommodation for the two of them was quite good, in a separate cell. The rest of the messenger group was not so lucky, and they were locked in the innermost part of the cell.
Qian Shen was about to release him and wanted to take them away. The other prisoners in the prison clamored, yelling that if they were not released, they would yell so that they would not be able to leave either.
General Qian Shen frowned, Zhang Hui stopped him and said, "Don't let them go. Those who can be locked in the sky prison are either vicious people or criminal officials who have committed the most heinous crimes. Letting them out will cause harm to others."
He said coldly: "Isn't the best way to shut up people is to die? Just kill them."
The prisoners were startled and moved away from the prison door. Although most of them were sentenced to death, there is still a difference between dying now and dying after a while.
General Qian Shen said: "My lord, let's go. They can yell if they want. I have killed all the yamen servants in the prison. It is useless for them to slit their throats. Whoever yells, I will cut them off."
No one dared to speak out, and watched silently as they left surrounded by Prince Gao Wu and the envoys.
The street was already in chaos, Zhang Hui and Prince Gao Wu stared at the place where the flames were burning.
Qian Shenjiang subconsciously argued, "It's not all our responsibility."
Zhang Hui looked away and asked, "Where are we going?"
General Qian Shen led them to a courtyard of Prince Gao's Second Prince.
High Five Prince: "..."
General Qian Shen didn't have time to pay attention to his petty emotions, and after bringing him here, he pulled Zhang Hui aside and whispered.
The two talked for half an hour before it ended. Zhang Hui immediately went to Prince Gao Wu with his hair that hadn't been washed for half a month. The dirty hand grabbed the fifth prince who had just been washed, and said excitedly : "Fifth Prince, Your Majesty specially sent hundreds of warriors to rescue us, now it's time for us to repay Your Majesty."
After saying this, he lowered his voice and said, "It's also time for me to make contributions."
The fifth prince didn't feel much about the first sentence, but he was very interested in the second sentence.
Especially when he knew that his second brother had already become a general in the state of Jin, and had also been the leader of the army before.
He also urgently needs opportunities to make meritorious service, so he doesn't mind the sour smell on Zhang Hui's body anymore.
The two held hands and closed the door to discuss things.
