Governor Chen Leiting's personal bodyguard and his men were divided into two groups and each rushed to the destination to pick up the people. , when the first team rushed to Piaoxiangju without stopping, the store door was closed tightly and the building was already empty.
The guards went upstairs to search and found a pile of ashes of burned letters, but found nothing else.
The second team rushed to Chen's house, but found no trace of the second lady.
When the guards rushed into the small house in Huayuan, The maid guarding the flower garden was gagged and tied to the bookshelf.
The guards took off the cloth from the maid's mouth, untied her and asked, "Where is Madam?"
The maid hesitated and said, "I don't know, Madam just asked me to sort out the books on the bookshelf.
Suddenly my vision went dark and I didn't know anything."
After the maid finished speaking, she slowly touched her head and said, "Ouch.
Why does my head hurt so much?"
"Don't move."
A guard saw blood on the maid's head and immediately said, "Hurry up and ask the doctor in the mansion to bandage her."
The housekeeper of the Chen mansion immediately arranged for the doctor to treat her.
When the guards thought about it, they must rush to the city gate immediately and notify the soldiers guarding the city to prevent the second lady from sneaking out of the city.
Watanabe, the owner of Piaoxiangju, received a mysterious guest before the guards arrived.
This person was none other than the second lady.
Watanabe immediately asked the second lady to sit upstairs for a while and ordered the guys not to let any guests go upstairs.
"Sir, why did you come here in person?
There is a risk of exposure," Watanabe said.
"Do you think Chen Leiting and the Revolutionary Party are not aware of our existence yet?"
the second lady asked.
"Now that they are at war, how can they care about us?"
Watanabe said.
"Based on my judgment, they will attack us soon," the second lady said.
"Sir, what should I do?"
Watanabe seemed a little at a loss when he heard the second lady's words.
"Immediately inform all the imperial warriors in Wucheng to remain silent and wait for the next awakening.
How many people are awakening now?"
asked the second lady.
"I also have the guys in the store, Ah Cheng," Watanabe reported.
"A Cheng has fallen into the hands of the revolutionary party.
We can only wait for the news that he is loyal to the emperor.
The rest of the people will leave Wucheng with me immediately."
The second lady said.
"Sir, are we really leaving Wucheng and right away?"
Watanabe asked.
"Do you think I am joking with you?"
the second lady scolded.
"My subordinates don't dare.
Everything is serving the interests of the Japanese Empire and serving the emperor.
I will let the guys close their doors now, burn all the letters and evacuate immediately," Watanabe said.
"That's good.
After you take care of it, I will set off with you and rush directly to Pingcheng," the second lady ordered.
Wucheng was not at peace these days, and there were only a few guests.
The clerk at Piaoxiangju found an excuse to send away the guests, quickly closed the business, made a brazier, and burned all the letters.
Watanabe and the guys prepared their horses, helped the second lady to mount, and went straight to the city gate.

The gate of Wucheng has already been strengthened according to Wang Charlie's order.
Not only did the number of soldiers increase, but everyone entering and leaving Wucheng had to be questioned one by one.
Seeing this situation, Watanabe couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat and reined in the horse tightly.
The horse came to an abrupt stop and almost fell off the horse.
The second lady calmly reined in the horse, rode over and said to Watanabe, "As an intelligence officer of the empire, you are not as good as our young people."
After saying that, the second lady picked up the whip in her hand, pointed at the guys behind her, and asked Watanabe looked.
Watanabe followed the second lady's riding crop and looked over.
All his men looked at death as if they were dead, and they showed no signs of timidity.
"Sir, they are just newborn calves and are not afraid of tigers.
They don't know that the revolutionary party in Wucheng has sent more manpower and strengthened the investigation.
I'm afraid it will be more difficult for us to go through like this," Watanabe said with shame.
"Even though the revolutionary party in Wucheng is powerful, it is not as scary as a tiger."
After the second lady said this, she took out a waist badge from her sleeve pocket and handed it to Watanabe.
After taking the badge, Watanabe took a closer look.
The word "Chen" was clearly written on the token.
This was obviously Chen Tingting's personal badge, which could be used at various checkpoints in Wucheng without any obstruction.
"Sir, this is great, we can leave the city smoothly."
Watanabe's hanging heart finally relaxed.
"I'm afraid it's too early to say this now.
If the soldiers guarding the city have received the news of our evacuation, we won't be able to escape.
If we haven't received the news yet, we can leave the city smoothly," the second lady said.
"My lord, do the soldiers guarding the city know?"
Watanabe asked.
The second lady smiled and said, "Then it's up to us to try it ourselves."
After saying that, with a loud whip, the horse ran towards the city gate.
The guarding soldiers stopped the second lady's horse, and a sentry officer asked, "Who are you?"
Watanabe hurriedly got off the horse and handed the waist badge to the sentry officer.
He thought to himself, your dog eyes are blind, and when you see Chen Leiting's waist badge, why don't you hurry up and open the city gate for us respectfully.
"This belt seems to be the belt of the Governor.
It's just that at this critical moment, the people leaving the city will inevitably be mixed with enemies.
Our brothers let Wang Zhiyuan's group of key criminals go this morning.
We should rest assured this time to avoid making mistakes again.
Wait for me Send your brothers to the camp to check the evidence quickly, and then you can leave the city," the sentry officer said.
At this time, Watanabe wanted to argue with the sentry immediately, but he was afraid that his flaws would be exposed during the argument, and he was sweating profusely.
Unexpectedly, the second lady who was on the horse took off the black gauze covering her face and scolded her unceremoniously, with a hint of reprimand, "You short-sighted people, if you dare to stop my horse, look at who I am." " The sentry officer looked at this elegant lady and thought that this beautiful woman looked so familiar, as if he had seen her before somewhere.
"I am Mrs.
Chen.
You can't afford to open your eyes and miss my business," the second lady scolded again.
This scolding really worked, and the sentry officer completely remembered that he had protected the then-controller on his trip for a year and had experienced the charm of this arrogant lady.
He was busy pleading guilty and apologizing, "The villain has eyesight but does not recognize Mount Tai.
Burning incense does not recognize the true God.
I have offended my wife, so please atone for my sins."
"Okay, stop being glib and ask your brothers to open the city gate and let us out of the city," the second lady said.
"Open the door!"
the sentry shouted, and the brothers quickly opened half of the city gate and let the second lady and her group out of the city.

Half an hour later, Chen Tingting's personal bodyguard led his men to the city and shouted loudly on horseback, "I am the governor's personal bodyguard.
Did any of the city guards leave the city just now?"
"Your Excellency, half an hour ago, the governor's wife took her belt and several people and rode out of the city," the sentry said.
"Do you know which direction they are heading?"
the guard asked.
"It seems to be the direction of Licheng," the sentry officer said.
Following the direction pointed by the sentry officer, Chen Leiting's personal bodyguard led his men and chased for thirty miles, but found no trace of the second lady and his group.
It was approaching dusk, so the guards and their men had no choice but to rush back to Wucheng and report to the Commander-in-Chief, Chen Leiting, for further response.
Besides, after the Second Madam and her group left Wucheng, they kept running non-stop and did not dare to take a moment's rest.
No wonder Chen Tingting's personal bodyguards and their subordinates pursued them desperately, but found nothing.
It turned out that the second lady and her group had cunningly changed to the waterway and rushed to Pingcheng after twenty miles out of the city.
Besides, Wang Zhiyuan of the cavalry battalion led two soldiers to break out of the siege and forcefully broke through the gate of Wucheng.
After arriving at Pingcheng on a starry night, he first met with his fellow countryman Li Deliang and explained the situation in Wucheng and his purpose of coming to Pingcheng this time. .
Li Deliang agreed wholeheartedly and quickly reported to Wang Youyi, the commander of Pingcheng, and then arranged for Wang Zhiyuan and his men to live in the post house.
They entertained him with good wine and food, but did not mention when to borrow troops.
Wang Zhiyuan and his men were so anxious that they almost I went to see my fellow villager Li Deliang for the first time, but no one was there.
At this time, Li Deliang was still at the residence of Wang Youyi, the ruler of Pingcheng, thinking carefully, weighing the pros and cons, and deciding whether to lend troops to Wang Zhiyuan.
Wang Youyi is of medium height, with a lean body, wrapped in a slightly loose skin, with a bronze complexion, and a set of buck teeth under a mustache.
He bites his upper and lower teeth and slowly says to Li Deliang, "Deliang, you, a fellow countryman, turned out to be in Where does the new army of Wucheng occupy?"
Li Deliang saluted and reported, "My lord, my fellow countryman's name is Wang Zhiyuan.
He turned out to be the standard commander of the cavalry battalion of the Wucheng New Army.
He can lead troops and know how to fight."
"It's not that I doubt his ability, it's just that he is just a small official, not the head of the Wucheng New Army.
We lend him soldiers.
This is a big deal.
Ordinary people lend things to others.
You won't sign documents with a child who has no say in the matter, De Liang, do you understand what I mean?"
Wang Youyi squinted his eyes and took a sip of tea.
"Sir, Deliang understands, so by arranging for him and his subordinates to have good food and drinks, I can fulfill my friendship as a fellow landowner."
Li Deliang knew in his heart that the commander, Wang Youyi, would not make a deal with a pawn.
He was afraid that When the time comes, the soldiers will be loaned out, but the account will never be returned.
Chen Tingting had such a penetrating conversation when he talked about Wang Youyi because he knew who he was.
Seeing that the commander had no intention of borrowing troops, Li Deliang hurried to the post house to inform Wang Zhiyuan and let him think of another solution.
Wang Zhiyuan was restless in the post house, but the two accompanying soldiers showed incredible patience.
"Mr.
Wang, please take a break.
Mr.
Li is your fellow countryman.
You can rest assured and wait for him to give you good news.
There are so many good wines and food here.
Come over and have something to eat and drink with the brothers."
"Eat, just know how to eat and drink, just know how to drink.
So many brothers' lives are waiting for us to save them," Wang Zhiyuan said with an air of excitement after listening to the strange talk of the two accompanying soldiers.
The two soldiers saw that Wang Zhiyuan was angry and did not dare to shout any more, but continued to drink wine
