Chapter 73 Big things are bad

The meeting with Qin Shao was in the kitchen, not because of his contempt, but because of the high and low status of this era. If the dignified Central Army General received a butcher in the guest hall and spread it out, it would not be suspected.

As an informant and Erwuzai, Xiahou An must be careful in all his actions, including his words and deeds, otherwise he will be able to finish his life.

Although he has seen the recent scenery, he is actually only known that he is walking a tightrope at a high altitude. If he falls a little late, he will be doomed.

In the kitchen, the news brought by Butcher Qin was extremely bad.

Wang Shusheng, who was responsible for secretly delivering letters, was taken away by Li Ru's people overnight last night.

Qin Shao also received the news this morning, so he hurried to Xiahou An for discussion.

Wang Shusheng is a man named Xiahou An. He is tall and thin, like a bamboo pole. He is a disciple of the old Cao family. He lives in the south of Chang'an City. He makes a living by writing letters on the surface. In fact, he is an important intelligence officer secretly responsible for the transmission of letters.

Even when Xiahou An wrote a letter to Cao Cao, he had to hand over the letter to Qin Shao first, and then pass it out through Wang Shusheng's channels.

"How could I be arrested?" Xiahou An was suspicious.

"I don't know much about the specific situation. I'm most likely lit water."

Qin Shao gave his own guess, but what he was most worried about now was that he didn't know whether he had found any letters from his lord Wang?

If found, the informant in Chang'an City, as well as him and Xiahou An, would be in danger!

"It shouldn't be."

Compared to Qin Shao's anxiousness, Xiahou An acted quite calmly. Li Ru had not brought anyone to the door yet, which was enough to illustrate this point.

Even so, Qin Shao was still worried: "What if Wang Shusheng confessed in prison?"

This is indeed a difficult problem.

Xiahou An put his chin on his back for a while.

"Otherwise, let's run away first and come back after the storm passes." Qin Shao gave his own advice.

Xiahou An shook his head at this. In Chang'an City, Li Ru's eyeliner was also quite common. Who knows which one was? What's more, now that the bedding is gone, it will seem guilty.

"Li Ru's move is probably deliberately trying to alert the snake, trying to lead us out of the water and then hit us all in one go."

Qin Shao thought Xiahou An's analysis made sense, but he was afraid that the matter would be revealed, so he snatched his head up in annoyance: "Then brother, please make an idea, I'll listen to you!"

Xiahou An is now valued by Dong Zhuo. Without 100% sure, as long as he refuses to accept it, Li Ru can't do anything to him.

After thinking in his mind, Xiahou An gave a countermeasure: "Brother Qin, I have come up with two solutions at present. One is to find someone to silence Wang Shusheng because the dead cannot speak."

Qin Shao shook his head decisively. As soon as he was arrested, he wanted to silence him. It would inevitably make people feel disappointed when he crossed the river and destroyed the bridge. After that, who would dare to work wholeheartedly for Cao Cao?

Xiahou An also thought so, so he gave a second plan: robbing prison.

In a few days, Dong Zhuo's fifty-fifth birthday will be. On that day, officials from all over the world in Chang'an City will almost go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to celebrate Dong Zhuo's birthday. This is also the best time to rob the prison.

However, before this, we must first find out where Wang Shusheng was detained, and at the same time we must plan the way to retreat after the prison robbery.

Qin Shao chose two. Although the risk of robbing prison is not small, it is worth taking a risk.

Even if you fail, at least you have a clear conscience and will not leave any regrets.

Xiahou An nodded "Yeah", and also told Qin Shao that he would not take action personally, but could only be responsible for planning and intelligence. The specific manpower and actions must be done by Qin Shao himself.

Qin Shao expressed his understanding and solemnly agreed.

After seeing Qin Shao away, Xiahou An also left the door.

He went to find Lu Bu first, and asked him indirectly if he knew about Wang Shusheng's arrest.

Lu Bu was indifferent to the trivialities of the market and didn't care about this at all.

But he was very curious about why Xiahou An suddenly asked about an unknown person coming.

Xiahou An had long said something about this.

He said that Xu Chu wanted to write a letter to his family, but he was illiterate and didn't want to bother himself, so he went to ask Wang Shusheng for his writing. As a result, he found that Wang Shusheng had been arrested, so Xiahou An came to ask.

"Maybe I can help with other things, I'm afraid this will not work."

Lu Bu said with a puzzled look on his face. His adoptive father granted Li Ru the privilege and did not allow others to interfere in his affairs.

A civilian like Wang Shusheng who has no background status falls into Li Ru's hands, which basically means that his legs are on the road to the underworld.

"I would like to remind you, Li Ru, you'd better not mess with him."

This guy is inhumane.

Xiahou An also knew this. If it was not about his life, he would not want to go against Li Ru.

Lu Bu couldn't find out what was wrong, so Xiahou An had to find another way.

The most direct way is to ask Li Ru himself, but this method will definitely not work. With Li Ru's IQ and sense of smell, as long as Xiahou An goes, it will definitely arouse this guy's suspicion.

After thinking about it, maybe there is someone else who can give it a try.

That is Tian Jing, the chief clerk in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Tian Jing is an old man around Dong Zhuo. He started his family after Dong Zhuo very early. There was no chief secretary in the prime minister's mansion. Tian Jing, as the chief clerk, is equivalent to the largest steward in the mansion.

I guess he should know some inside information.

Taking advantage of the fact that Dong Mowang was not in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Xiahou An went to find the chief clerk Tian. After some greetings and flattery, he indeed found Wang Shusheng's detention place from Tian Jing.

Xiahou An was in a good mood for this. After saying goodbye to Hetian Jing, he was preparing to leave the mansion so that he could tell Qin Shao about this and ask him to prepare early.

When passing by the vestibule, in the flower garden planted on the right, a little girl was squatting in the soil with her back facing Xiahou An, humming a cheerful song.

It’s no one else, it’s Dong Demon King’s granddaughter, Weiyang Jun - Dong Bai.

When Xiahou An first learned about Dong Bai's identity, he was shocked and did not expect to become Lagou's friend with her.

Of course, I couldn't help but complain in my heart: Demon King Dong is so ugly, with a flesh-shaped beard all over his face, and his granddaughter is so awesome and cute.

It makes no sense!

Xiahou An wanted to go over and say hello.

A ball of black shadow pounced on it.

Xiahou An's eyebrows sank, waved his left hand, and immediately repelled the black shadow, while cursing: "Diet crow, do you want to sneak attack me again?"

Hearing Xiahou An's voice, the little girl in the flower garden quickly waved her head and turned her head. Seeing that it was Xiahou An, her delicate and cute little face suddenly had a happy smile, and she kept waving to him: "Boyang, come quickly!"

Xiahou An walked over and saw the fat orange cat lying on the ground. After stroking it twice, he hugged it in his arms and asked with a smile: "Xi Ci, what are you busy with?"

Dong Bai stretched out his hand and wiped his face. The beautiful skirt was covered with a lot of soil, but she still enjoyed it and said to Xiahou An: "Aweng's birthday is coming soon. I want to make a garland for him. Come in and help me choose!"

Xiahou An didn't move. He said, "I have to eat birthday cakes when I celebrate my birthday in my hometown."

“What is a cake?”

Dong Bai was curious about this strange and fresh word, and had never heard of it before.

"If you want to learn, I can teach you."
