Brocade tears

In the early morning of the next day, Chen Danggui, who was on duty in the third shift, suddenly heard the courtyard door burst open, and jumped up hastily.When he rushed out of the house, he saw a large number of Japanese soldiers swarming in. Without any explanation, he broke into the courtyard and searched everywhere.He rushed to the room of his companions and woke everyone up.Everyone got up in a hurry to get dressed in fright. Thanks to the need to ensure a quick response, the clothes on their bodies were all dressed properly when they slept, and they never took off.

The Japanese army broke into the house, knocked on all the partitions and door panels, and even uncovered the floor to search.Sui'er didn't see Li Bingyuan coming out with his daughter, but saw Xiao Shunzhen being roughly kicked out of the house by the Japanese army, standing in disheveled clothes in the icy and snowy yard, crying, and rushing forward to take the child into his arms inside.Before she had time to ask the whereabouts of her child's father, Li Bingyuan, she was threatened by a Japanese army officer with a Japanese sword.Meng Kuang immediately rushed forward to stand in front of Sui'er and the little girl, and kicked the knife away from the Japanese army officer's hand. Dare to be rough again.But in all directions, a large number of Japanese troops armed with spears still posed a considerable threat. In the end, Meng Kuang and Sui'er were coerced into entering the north room.It's not just them, all the residents in the courtyard are gathered here.

Not long after, Xiao Xixing appeared in front of everyone with a dark face, Zong Yizhi and a tall and mighty Japanese general. This Japanese general was escorting another person, who was Li Bingyuan who had disappeared inexplicably.

"You guys are very dishonest... Did you help him sneak out last night?" President Xiaoxi asked.Among the crowd, only Shen Weijing understood Xiaoxi's question, and his complexion was as pale as paper.Immediately, he found that everyone was looking at him, because Xiaoxi didn't bring the Korean interpreter with him, and everyone was waiting for him to be the interpreter.

Shen Weijing could only tremblingly translate Xiaoxi's words to everyone. Guo Dayou was angry and a little nervous. Before Shen Weijing translated, he saw Li Bingyuan who was arrested and probably guessed what happened. People are really hurt by this Li Bingyuan.He glanced at Li Bingyuan, who was kneeling on the ground by the general of the Japanese army, bowed his head and looked down, covered in dust and embarrassed.Looking coldly at President Xiaoxi, he said seriously:

"I didn't know that this person sneaked out. It was because you broke in that we were surprised that he was gone."

"Huh!" After listening to Shen Weijing's translation, President Xiaoxi didn't believe Guo Dayou's words at all, he said, "You really don't want to eat or drink fine wine. After searching this yard, I think you will find a secret way to escape. How can you quibble! Tell me! Did you sneak out to inform the Ming army?"

Guo Dayou just said calmly and persistently: "We don't know about this person sneaking out."

"I don't know?! Just kidding, if you didn't know, he would leave his daughter and run away alone? He must have been coerced by you. You took his daughter as a hostage and asked him to do things for you honestly." Xiao Xixing said.

"Nonsense." Guo Dayou continued to deny it. He observed that Li Bingyuan had been subconsciously shrinking his right calf, and his posture was not very natural, so he said, "Why don't you search his body and see if you can find it?" Find something."

Hearing this, President Xiaoxi glanced at the tall Japanese general beside him. The Japanese general searched Li Bingyuan carefully. Under Li Bingyuan's desperate eyes, he found the letter hidden in the cloth socks. Take it apart and see that it is all Chinese characters.The Japanese general was illiterate and couldn't understand much, so he had to hand it over to President Xiaoxi, who threw it to Zongyizhi who was on the side. After Zongyizhi took it and read it, he whispered something in Xiaoxi's ear.Xiaoxi frowned, and then he glanced at Li Bingyuan fiercely, with killing intent all over his body.

Just at this time, a Japanese soldier came to report that he found a tree hole in the yard, and that tree hole was the way to escape.Xiaoxi was furious, and immediately grabbed Li Bingyuan's hair, lifted him up, and dragged him outside the house.Amidst Li Bingyuan's loud screams, Xiaoxi said coldly:

"I won't keep extra North Koreans here, not to mention you have committed a big taboo, I will send you to hell right now!"

"Shunzhen, don't look, don't look! Please, please raise her up, please!" Li Bingyuan finally yelled at Sui'er heart-piercingly.Meng Kuang took a heavy step forward, using his back to block Sui'er and the child, looking at Li Bingyuan who was being dragged out, her eyes were full of pity and determination.Sui'er pressed Xiao Shunzhen's crying and struggling face into her arms, hugged her struggling body tightly, sighed, and closed her eyes.

With a "bang" gunshot, Li Bingyuan was executed by Xiao Xixing in the front yard.Xiaoxi held the short-barreled blunderbuss that was emitting green smoke from the muzzle, looked back at the crowd viciously and said:

"Put everyone in prison and lock them up!"

……

On November [-]th, the third day in prison, Sui'er squatted beside the pile of straw in the cell. On the straw was Meng Kuang's outer coat, and Li Shunzhen lay on it. Meng Kuang's outer coat was used as both a bed cover and a quilt covered her.Sui'er used a wooden spoon to put a bowl of gruel into Xiao Shunzhen's mouth little by little.The child has been ill for two days, with high fever and nightmares.

Meng Kuang kept pacing to the side. She had to keep moving to generate heat all the time, because it was too cold in the Pyongyang prison. There was no heating pad, no charcoal basin, and no sun. A moment is suffering, not to mention they have been locked here for three days.Not enough to eat and not warm enough to wear, Meng Kuang even had to give up his fur jacket to keep the child warm.Fortunately, she still has an inner armor on her body. The inner armor is extremely warm. In addition, she has a strong body and strong ability to resist cold, so she can finally hold on.

The envoy's treatment is gone, and everyone is now the prisoner of Governor Xiaoxi, and the weapons and equipment around them are lost again. There are three cells in total, and ten members of the envoy plus one child are allocated.Meng Kuang, Sui Er, Zi Zi and Wu Liu were locked in the same cell.Guo Dayou, Zhou Jintong, and Shen Weijing were held in the cell opposite them, and Zhang Zhanghuan, Wang Xu, Chen Danggui, and Yin Genshou were held in the cell next door.

"Damn Li Bingyuan, what he accomplished is more than what he failed!" Wu Liu cursed as he sat against the side wall of the cell.

"Have some virtue with your mouth, everyone is dead." Behind him, Chen Danggui, who was next door, immediately replied dissatisfied.

"Is there anything you can't scold, I'm about to freeze to death in this prison!" Wu Liuqi didn't say anything, "This idiot is so stupid, alas! I've been unlucky for eight lifetimes."

Guo Dayou spoke: "Wu Liu, what did Li Bingyuan shout when he was dragged out?"

"He...he asked his daughter not to watch the picture of him being executed, but also... the daughter of Lord Thirteen's family who adopted him." Wu Liu said this, his anger dissipated a lot, and there was a trace of pity and sigh in his tone .He called Sui'er very special. Since Sui'er and Meng Kuang got married, Meng Kuang's subordinates in Jinyiwei basically called Sui'er "Sister-in-law" and "Sister-in-law". Call Sui Er's name directly.Only Wu Liu can call Sui'er "from the Thirteenth Master's family".

Guo Dayou looked at Sui Er and asked, "Sui Er...do you really want to keep this child by your side?"

Sui'er replied very naturally: "Otherwise we can't leave her alone. Such a small child has no father or mother, how pitiful."

Guo Dayou seemed a little helpless. It was already dangerous to go secretly to Pyongyang to perform missions. Unexpectedly, a whole child would stick to everyone, which added to the burden.Sui'er's maternal instincts have already exploded in this child, and she can't get rid of it.He looked at Meng Kuang again, Meng Kuang just smiled, the meaning was obvious, if Sui Er wanted to raise the child, she would listen to Sui Er and would not have any objections.

The corner of Guo Dayou's mouth twitched, thinking that he really couldn't count on this fearful guy.

"What's more, her father... more or less we also take some responsibility for his death." Sui'er sighed.

These words made everyone fall into silence. Everyone understood Sui Er's meaning. If Guo Dayou hadn't reminded President Xiaoxi to search his body and found the whistleblower letter that Li Bingyuan hid in his socks, Li Bingyuan would not have been executed so soon. .But what happened has already happened, and people in reality cannot be blamed for imaginary things.At that time, Guo Dayou did not have any problem in order to clear the responsibility and protect everyone.But objectively, Li Bingyuan was indeed betrayed, causing him to be killed as an example to others.At that time, no one stood up to defend Li Bingyuan, and they all watched him being shot.Everyone knew in their hearts that they had to get rid of their relationship with Li Bingyuan, and that they had to put the mission first. If anyone still sacrificed his life to save Li Bingyuan under the circumstances at that time, it would be tantamount to putting everyone in an irreparable death.Reason makes everyone make a consistent choice, but no one is actually having a hard time.

What's more...President Xiaoxi will search Li Bingyuan sooner or later, and it is only a matter of time before the letter is discovered. The murderer is Xiaoxi, so why should they take responsibility for Xiaoxi.Everyone basically excused themselves with this, but when facing this little girl, no one could seriously leave her alone, otherwise they would no longer be able to excuse their conscience.

Guo Dayou sighed, and decided not to stop Sui Er, but Yin Genshou, who had been silent all this time, spoke in very poor Chinese:

"Everyone, Li Bingyuan misunderstood all of you, but it definitely does not represent what I mean by the court of the Joseon Dynasty. Now that you are trapped here, I am also guilty, and I am also responsible. If I can find out the clues and have a good talk with Li Bingyuan, it will not be like this. "

"Yin Xianggong is serious. We still have to find a way to spread the news. This prison is more difficult to pass the news than the previous yard. I only hope that the second echelon will find out that something happened to us and can enter Pyongyang to find us. Us." Guo Dayou said.

"I think you are a blessing in disguise." At this moment, a female voice suddenly sounded strangely in the corridor of the prison. The prison in Pyongyang Prefecture is already an empty prison, except for the first echelon. Already escaped from the chaos in Pyongyang.The voice echoed in the dark and empty prison. Although it was the official language of Ming Dynasty, it was obviously a Japanese accent, which made everyone feel goosebumps.

"Who is it?" Guo Dayou asked, and Jin Yiwei became more alert.Only Meng Kuang waved to Guo Dayou, indicating that he was not threatening.

Guo Dayou suddenly understood who was coming, and not long after, a female ninja covered in black and with a black face appeared in the dark aisle.She quickly walked over to Meng Kuang, stuffed a pair of lockpicking pins into Meng Kuang's hands through the railing, and unfastened Meng Kuang's dagger from his back and handed it to her.Meng Kuang couldn't help but be overjoyed.

"Put it away, hide the knife first, find the right time and then unlock it, I will give you a signal. This prison is much easier to enter than the previous yard, but I just sneaked in looking for a gap in the guard, and I can't stay long. " she exhorted.

"Are you Mitsu Annan?" Guo Dayou asked.

"That's right, I am." Mizu Annan replied, causing Sui'er's eyes to completely shift from the child to her.

She didn't notice Sui'er, and continued to explain quickly: "The rest of the ninjas under Xiaoxi's command are not stationed around this prison for the time being, but are sent out to rebuild the intelligence network. After Yazaemon's death, someone still needs to replace him. , so I was given a chance. There have been ninjas guarding the yard before, and I couldn't get close at all. I will find a way to spread your news, and you should have someone to respond outside."

"Yes!" Guo Dayou immediately told Mitsu Annan the location and code of the message, and said, "Please send a message to the second echelon and tell them to destroy the Japanese army's intelligence network first, and not let the Japanese army grasp the Ming Dynasty. In addition, please find the right time to meet us outside the west gate, and when Wang Daoming arrives in Pyongyang, we will find a way to break out from there." Under such circumstances, he must seize every chance to survive, Since this woman can gain Meng Kuang's trust, he will not doubt her employment.

"Okay, I understand. You must pay attention. According to the news from my sister, people sent by Shimadzu will escort Wang Daoming to Pyongyang tonight, so from tonight to tomorrow is the key. President Konishi It is very likely that you will be forced to contact the outside support, and induce the outside support to send Shimadzu Suihisa in, and directly surround and kill you. You must find a way to break through first. The weapons I can bring in are limited, only Equip the most powerful people first." Mizu Annan said, glanced at Meng Kuang, and then continued, "After I signal, after you come out, your weapons will be piled up in the torture room on the upper floor of the cell. I've opened it up for you."

At this time, there was suddenly the sound of keys clattering outside, as if a cell had been guarded, Mizu Annan immediately retreated quickly without saying a word, and quickly disappeared into the dark corridor when he came, and no one could figure out who she was. Where did it come from.

"Baihu, this female ninja really takes care of you." Wang Xu chuckled jokingly.

Meng Kuang gave him a gouged look, and Wang Xu was embarrassed, knowing that he was talking too much.Meng Kuang's back suddenly felt cold, and he noticed that Sui'er was staring at her.Turning her head to look at Sui'er, she was still feeding Xiao Shunzhen porridge as if she didn't care, and didn't look at Meng Kuang at all.

Meng Kuang yelled in his heart that it was terrible, and there was a helpless wry smile on his face.
