Yuan Jian's memory was not very good at reading and writing since he was a child, and he was far inferior to his younger brother Yuan Chun. However, he had a very high talent in identifying people's faces and figures. Although the two men were only 90 percent similar in appearance,

However, he determined in his heart that the two of them were the same person.

So here comes the question, why did Mr. Ning of the Xing Prison Division come into contact with Zhao's traitor and the killer in gray one after another, and he looked very familiar with them? Yuan Jian stood behind the window, thinking hard but couldn't figure it out.

At this time, the people in the city learned that Zhao's army had gone to besiege the palace, and they had no plans to kill, burn or loot in the city for the time being. Many of the brave ones quietly opened the door to explore what was going on outside.

High-ranking families also secretly came out of the cellars or secret passages where they were hiding. Although hiding was safe for the time being, it was really suffocating. People who are used to being pampered will find it difficult to hide until they are at the critical moment of life and death.

After careful consideration, Mrs. Wei let the restless He family come out of the cellar.

The old lady was old and was a little dizzy when she got up. When Wei was about to let someone send her off, He Lin stepped forward and held the old lady's arm.

"I'll go take care of the old lady. Grandma must have a lot of things to arrange personally, so you go and do it first."

The old lady glanced at He Linwan, then looked at the second lady and others who had already taken a step ahead, pursed her lips and did not push her away.

Although Mrs. Wei was a little surprised that He Lin took the initiative to see off the old lady at the party, she didn't think much about it. She just thought that her granddaughter wanted to share some of the burden for her, so she nodded and was called away by He Chuanwu.

He Linwan supported the old lady and walked slowly to Yannian Hall.

"Old lady, I heard you say before that Mu Shoufu is a rare general. Although my grandfather didn't believe it, Awan believed it! I heard that these talented people have similar talents. Since Mu Shoufu

If you are good at reading, it is no wonder that you are good at marching and fighting."

The old lady snorted and said calmly: "You girl is quite knowledgeable. Unlike your grandfather, he was not as good as his brothers when he was young, and all the extra food he has eaten in the past few decades has gone into the dog's belly.

went."

He Linwan smiled and did not answer.

But the old lady came to chat, "Seeing that they didn't believe it, I almost thought that I had forgotten the mistake. But I just carefully thought back to what the old man said back then, and he was talking about Mu Xiangzhi! Xiangzhi is Mu Rusong.

The word , is this correct?"

He Linwan echoed: "The old lady remembered it correctly."

The old lady was a little proud, "Let me tell you! I can forget everything in my life, and I can't remember every word my old man said to me wrong! He talks little to begin with, and it is rare for him to say a few words to me.

I must have recited it many times afterwards, so I have remembered it firmly for so many years, and there is no way it is wrong!"

He Linwan said enviously: "The old lady and my great-grandfather have a really good relationship."

The old lady looked proud: "That's not true! Your great-grandfather was very kind to me. He lived with me all his life and never took a concubine. He never accepted women given to him by others. Even if he didn't spend much time at home all year round, you wouldn't

I know that he was highly valued by the late Emperor, who liked to have him follow him wherever he went, and it would be impossible without him!"

The old lady was normally sarcastic, but when she mentioned the deceased old master, a gentle smile appeared on her brows and eyes, and her whole person softened. She was completely different from her usual self. He Linwan couldn't help but be surprised when she looked at her.

"No wonder my great-grandfather knew about Muge Lao, but no one else knew about it. Muge Lao must have always accompanied the late emperor back then." He Linwan nodded suddenly.

The old lady thought for a while and nodded, "That's what it is. Sometimes the old man will talk a few more words after having a few drinks - but he never drinks outside, only drinks in my room. I hear him talk the most

Except for the King of Jin, the only other person is Mu Xiangzhi."

"And there is King Jin?" He Linwan asked in surprise.

"You girl, what are you making such a fuss about!" The old lady quickly looked around and saw that no one was around. She felt relieved again and poked He Linwan's forehead with her finger, muttering in a low voice, "Let's mention Jin in our own home."

What's wrong with the king? Now the Zhao family has surrounded the palace. Who knows if those taboos are really taboos..."

Having said this, the old lady thought of something and paused again.

"But I can't say for sure."

"What can't be said for sure?" He Linwan asked.

The old lady glanced at her sideways, "Why do you ask so many questions?"

He Linwan smiled sheepishly, "The old lady is very knowledgeable. Ah Wan wants to hear more about the old lady's teachings. Some of her knowledge is not available in other places."

"Humph, that goes without saying! I'm not bragging. Even your grandmother, who everyone praises for her ability to do things, is not enough in front of me. I have eaten more salt in my life than she has eaten rice!" The old lady boasted to herself.

.

He Linwan: "The old lady tells me, I can't say anything for sure."

The old lady looked around again and then whispered: "I mean, even if the Zhao family destroyed the palace, they might not be able to capture His Majesty. The palace is not well protected and there is a secret passage leading to the outside of the palace. If I were Your Majesty, I would still be able to wait.

People are coming to catch me? I must run away. Not only do I have to run away, I also have to bring enough gold, silver and jewelry with me."

He Linwan's eyes flashed when he heard this, "Is there a road leading to the outside of the palace?"

The old lady glanced at He Linwan and said: "How do I know? I'm just guessing."

He Linwan smiled and nodded, "The old lady's guess is not unreasonable."

The old lady felt happy after being flattered by He Linwan, but she did not mention the matters in the palace and the late emperor again, and the two of them arrived at the Yannian Hall in silence all the way.

After He Linwan sent the old lady back, he first went back to the study room in the west courtyard. After coming out, he immediately went to the martial arts field at the back, and then sent a signal to Hu Yao.

Hu Yao had been staying next door and hadn't left. He immediately climbed over the wall after receiving He Linwan's signal.

"Girl!" Hu Yao thought He Linwan wanted to ask about the situation outside, so he quickly said: "Zhao's people are still surrounding the palace. My subordinates guess that it won't be long before they attack directly. Is there anyone else in the palace?

With few martial arts and strong imperial guards, if the Zhao family wants to seize the palace by force, they will have to sacrifice a lot of men. The number of people they brought this time is about three thousand, and there are also a few high-skilled masters. If the palace cannot wait for foreign aid,

Come to rescue, it will be a matter of time before we are captured..."

He Linwan didn't seem to care about Zhao's army. When Hu Yao was talking, she spread the things she had brought from the study on the table in the room and waved, "Hu Yao, come here."

Hu Yao walked over in confusion, looked down, and found a map on the table, a simple map of the capital.

"This is..." Hu Yao looked up at He Linwan in surprise.
