The Commander-in-Chief of the Chinese Army.

"This is?"

Xu Huizu opened the note and found that the address written on it was in the direction of Kyoto East Street, so he looked up at Zhu Yunxi with some hesitation and asked doubtfully.

"The traitor's hiding place. After arresting these people, Wei Guogong should be able to report to Grandpa Huang."

Zhu Yunxi said with a smile and walked out.

"Thank you, Your Majesty the Grand Sun!"

Xu Huizu was stunned for a moment, stood up hurriedly, saluted Zhu Yunxi's back, and said gratefully.

"Remember, you found it yourself."

Zhu Yunxi warned without looking back. As the words fell, the person gradually walked away.

Xu Huizu stopped where he was, watching Zhu Yunxi's figure fading away, with a hint of meaningful solemnity between his brows.

In the blink of an eye, Xu Huizu immediately notified Xiao Huan and personally led Jin Wuwei to the address on the note.

East Street.

In a dark alley, Xu Huizu put his hands behind his back and looked at the house at the corner of the alley not far away, frowning slightly.

That was the address written on the note. He was a little unsure whether what Zhu Yunxi said was true, but he had sent Xiao Huan to take someone to find out.

Recently, His Majesty is indeed somewhat dissatisfied with Jin Yiwei and the Central Military Governor's Mansion due to his rebellion against the Party. If he fails to make some achievements, I am afraid that His Majesty will inevitably lose the trust he deserves.

At this moment, Xiao Huan, who was in disguise, quickly returned to the alley with the two of them.

"how?!"

Xu Huizu's eyes lit up and he asked hurriedly in a deep voice.

"Reporting to the Commander-in-Chief, after a humble inspection, I found that a group of people had indeed gathered in that house. Judging from their behavior, they were indeed not ordinary people. They all looked like members of the Lianjia family!"

Xiao Huan bowed his hands and said affirmatively.

"it is good!"

"Now that it has been confirmed, take action immediately! If there is resistance, shoot and kill! Don't let anyone go!"

Xu Huizu breathed a sigh of relief and immediately gave the order.

Xiao Huan agreed, took the spear from his subordinates, and immediately led dozens of Jinwu guards to the house.

Inside the house, there was smoke from the kitchen, as if they were preparing to light a fire for cooking. The total number of people in the courtyard and the wing was about fifteen or six.

At this moment, one of them seemed to vaguely hear something. After his face changed slightly, he immediately came to the door quickly and looked outside through the crack in the door. Then his face suddenly changed!

"No! Someone is coming!"

The man turned around quickly, alerting the people in the courtyard, and quickly rushed to the haystack in the corner and took out a knife from it!

Hearing this, other people also found their own weapons from the hidden corners around them and stood ready!

The people in the room also rushed out quickly, all holding weapons in their hands.

"Is he from Rakshasa Hall?!"

A middle-aged man walked out of the room quickly, his face was ashen, and he asked in a deep voice.

"It's officers and soldiers!"

"Jinwuwei!"

The man who reported the news shook his head and said with a solemn expression.

"It seems that we have been exposed and the plan is cancelled! Find a way to break out of the encirclement and leave Kyoto temporarily!"

"If anyone survives, he must not forget to avenge the general in the future!"

The middle-aged man frowned and said coldly.

"Yes!"

The dozen or so subordinates all bowed their hands and replied in unison.

However, at this moment, the door of the house was suddenly knocked open from the outside, and then a group of officers and soldiers were seen rushing in.

Xiao Huan took the lead, swung out the spear in his hand, and instantly defeated someone!

Soon, the two sides got into each other's hands, and they attacked without leaving any room for action, and the fight was fierce!

Although more than a dozen people in the house wanted to fight their way out of the siege, the Jinwu Guards had a large number of people and had already surrounded the house, making it impossible to break through!

After a long time, more than a dozen people fell into a pool of blood!

After everything was over, Xu Huizu slowly entered the house with his hands behind his back and a gloomy face. Looking at the blood and corpses on the ground, he couldn't help but frown.

Xiao Huan had already led people to search the house. When he saw Xu Huizu coming in, he quickly came closer.

"Report to the Commander-in-Chief, a total of sixteen people have been killed!"

Xiao Huan bowed his hands and said respectfully.

"Can you confirm your identity?"

Xu Huizu nodded and asked in a deep voice.

"After investigation by a low-level official, it was confirmed that he is a member of Lan Yu's party!"

"The portrait of one of them has been seen in the list of fugitive Lan Yu's remaining members published by the Ministry of Punishment!"

Xiao Huan nodded affirmatively and immediately led Xu Huizu towards the middle-aged man lying in a pool of blood.

When Xu Huizu saw the appearance of the middle-aged man, his eyes lit up.

Xiao Huan was right, he had seen this person's portrait in the list published by the Ministry of Punishment!

But then he suddenly frowned again, his eyes full of confusion and shock.

Jinyiwei and Jinwuwei have been secretly investigating the traces of other remnants of the Hu and Blue parties lurking in Kyoto, but they have found nothing. They thought they had been eliminated, but they didn't expect that there were so many people hidden here!

Moreover, he didn't understand how Taisun found out? !

"Captain, there are some things inside. I think you should go in and take a look."

Xiao Huan hesitated for a moment, pointed to a side room next to him, and said slowly, with a trace of solemnity between his eyebrows.

Xu Huizu looked at Xiao Huan suspiciously and quickly walked into the side room.

There was a table in the middle of the room, and there were some papers piled on the table, which looked a little messy.

Xu Huizu came to the table, looked at the papers carefully, then suddenly raised his eyebrows and picked up one of the papers.

This is a hand-drawn sketch. The pictures in the picture are all about the layout of the streets and alleys in Kyoto. Among them, the two most conspicuous locations are Hongwu Bookstore and Mixue Bingge!

There are also dates marked on the sides of these two positions!

Three days later!

A moment of unity!

Seeing these words, Xu Huizu couldn't help but feel his heart tightening, and immediately understood something.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Huan next to him also picked up a piece of paper from the pile of papers, looked at it carefully with confusion, and frowned slightly.

"what is this?"

After Xu Huizu came back to his senses, he noticed Xiao Huan's expression, subconsciously looked at the piece of paper in Xiao Huan's hand, and asked hesitantly.

"I don't know, there are only three words written on it, but I always feel that the person who wrote these three words seems to be full of resentment, and even the writing style seems to be filled with murderous intent."

Xiao Huan shook his head and said thoughtfully.

After Xu Huizu heard this, he reached out and took the piece of paper from Xiao Huan's hand, and carefully looked at the three words on it.

Rakshasa Hall!

Looking at these three words, Xu Huizu's face was full of confusion. Then he remembered another piece of paper in his hand. He couldn't help but look at the two pieces of paper back and forth, his brows gradually getting tighter and tighter.

"Captain, why is there still a painting of His Highness Taisun's shop on it?"

"Are they plotting to assassinate His Highness the Grand Sun?!"

Xiao Huan pointed to the sketch in Xu Huizu's hand and asked worriedly.

"Apart from this, I can't think of anything else. Perhaps this assassination is also related to this so-called Rakshasa Hall!"

"This matter is of great importance. I must go to the palace immediately to report to His Majesty!"

"I'll leave this to you first. Take the body back! See if the identities of the remaining people, except the middle-aged man, can be found out."

Xu Huizu frowned slightly, told Xiao Huan, immediately carefully folded the two pieces of paper in his hand, and left quickly.

"Yes!"

Xiao Huan agreed with his hand, and after watching Xu Huizu leave, he immediately sent someone to send the news to the Liang Palace.

He was still brooding about the incident with the Jiaofang Division before, worried that he would lose the favor of the Third Emperor's grandson because of his deliberate avoidance, so he had to find a way to make up for his previous mistakes.

...

Minghe Hall.

"Your Majesty, the Duke of Wei is seeking an audience outside. He said that he has something important to report to your Majesty."

Wang Defa walked slowly into the back hall, bowed his hands to Zhu Yuanzhang, who was reading the "Ming Dynasty" seriously, and said softly.

"Oh? Let him in."

Zhu Yuanzhang raised his eyebrows and said slowly, with a smile on his lips.

Although the Governor's Office of the Chinese Army had some negligence in arresting the rebels, in fact, he never really blamed Xu Huizu in his heart, because among the younger generation, Xu Huizu was indeed an outstanding one, and his ability was no weaker than that of Xu Da.

Moreover, Xu Huizu's report last time about the placement of spies among the Jinwu Guards by the Qiaoqi Guards actually made him clearly aware that Jinxiu Palace had secretly begun to prepare for the fight for the heir apparent. This news was very important to him.

In his heart, Xu Huizu was still one of the courtiers who would least participate in the fight for heirlooms and heirs among the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, because Xu Huizu never favored any faction and was only loyal to the court.

Soon, Xu Huizu followed Wang Defa and walked in quickly...
