Episode 3

Chen Gong was looking for clues about the military intelligence posthorse in the secret room. Just as he was concentrating on interpreting the bamboo slips, Guo Gang walked over and pushed the door open.Chen Gong quickly put away the replaced information, claiming that Mi Chong's suspicion made him unable to sit idly by and decided to personally find out the truth about the fire case.Guo Gang believed deeply in Chen Gong and informed him of the latest information sent back by Zhulong: Shuhan had sent a new wandering owl named Xunxu.

Si Wencao's infiltration was shocking, and Chen Gong hurriedly signaled Xun Xu, who was out feeding the horses to let loose, to return to the attic and take shelter.No clues about Zhulong's intelligence were found in Cao Wei's military intelligence post, which made Chen Gong keenly aware that Zhulong might use Shu Han's channels to transmit information.Therefore, Gu Zheng, the offline person responsible for delivering the message, became the primary target of investigation.Gu Zheng has also been targeted by Mi Chong, and the method of transmitting secret messages through gravel on the ground was also discovered by Mi Chong.Mi Chong speculated that Xun Xu would definitely meet him, so he only needed to keep an eye on Mi Chong to follow the clues and find the big fish Bai Di.

After Li Yan took over the power of Si Wen Cao, he used the name of Bai Emperor's rebellion to put pressure on Feng Ying, emphasizing that Si Wen Cao's lax management needed to be thoroughly rectified.Yang Yi visited Feng Ying and knew that Feng Ying sent Xun Xu to protect Chen Gong. However, the current situation in the court was tense and the Jieting case was unresolved. In order to protect one person, he might lose more.Feng Ying drank tea and thought deeply, and finally admitted his selfishness. He did not want to see this hero who had made great achievements in war die tragically with a stigma.

Gu Zheng pretended to be drunk to escape Mi Chong's surveillance and successfully passed the information to Chi Di.After returning home, he revealed Bai Di's new mission to his wife: because Luoyang's insider exposed a key piece of intelligence, he needed to personally send it to Hanzhong.His wife was worried, and Gu Zhengze took comfort in Prime Minister Zhuge's victory, emphasizing that the justice of the family and country was above all else, and that the couple must make sacrifices for this.At the same time, Mi Chong was fully armed and extremely excited.He obtained important information about Xun Xu's Youxiao Guards who had sneaked into Cao Wei's territory. He learned the whereabouts of the Jin Guards and his entourage by asking the guards, and immediately dispatched garrison troops and military dogs to search the mountains and forests.

Gu Zheng secretly called the driver on the West Old Street of Tianshui City and prepared to go to the bustling market.However, the interrogators of the Tianshui Division had already conducted strict surveillance, but could not catch any trace of Gu Zheng.Gu Zheng cleverly got rid of the pursuit and finally arrived at Tingsongyuan to meet with Xun Xu, who lied about being the Black Emperor.Although Gu Zheng confirmed Xun Xu's token ring, the fragrance of Hanzhong sachet flowers emanating from Xun Xu's body unexpectedly exposed his true identity.Faced with Gu Zheng's doubts, Xun Xu calmly revealed his true identity and frankly told him that for some reason the guards who were originally scheduled to be on guard around him failed to be in place as scheduled.This unexpected situation made the meeting between the two more tense and complicated.

After Gu Zheng confirmed Xun Xu's identity, the two began to discuss various doubts in the Jieting case.Although Gu Zheng guessed that there might be problems with the intelligence, he never thought that he would become the object of suspicion.Xun Xu firmly believed in Chen Gong's loyalty, but Gu Zheng questioned, if the secret language is so difficult to decipher, how can we guarantee that Bai Di is innocent?At this time, Lin Qing suddenly broke into the room and informed Tianshuijian that Tianshuijian had sent people to block the old street and Xunxu must leave immediately.


Gu Zheng, who was misunderstood as a traitor, felt extremely sad and angry.He went through life and death for the big man, but suffered such unfair injustice. Unable to bear it, he grabbed the blade and committed suicide.


Chen Gong, who learned the news about Lin Qing, tried to delay time and pretended to rush to the card game in Lao Cai.However, Mi Chong suddenly returned and blocked his way.Fortunately, Chen Gong arranged the card game in advance so that no flaws were exposed.On the surface, he tried to hide his emotions, but inside he was filled with resentment, worry and pain.


Although Xun Xu had successfully escaped, his subordinate Gu Zheng died tragically in the courtyard next door.This made Xun Xu realize more deeply that he must deal with this life on thin ice more cautiously.
