The Wind Blows From Longxi (Feng Qi Long Xi / 风起陇西 )

Just a few days ago,

didn't Zhulong

inform Guo Gang

of a spy's entering?

I could investigate that.

Start from here.

From 3 pm to 5 pm, and from 7 am to 9 am.

Chen Gong, why are you hiding here?

I'm looking for you.

Guo Gang, I'm surprised that

you can spare time for inspection.

What are you looking into?

I'm checking the people

in the Commander's camp the day it caught fire.

Why are you checking that?

It's none of your business.

But Mi Chong...

Mi Chong looks at me

the way a dog looks at a bone.

I talked to him about this last night.

My advice,

better make friends than make enemies.

It's his duty to do so.

He had no option.

I don't want to make an enemy, either.

But, would he spare me?

Come on, he has promised me

that's the end of this matter.

He did it to retaliate against me.

Last year, I didn't approve

an illegal expenditure of the Military Intelligence Agency.

That's why he took revenge.

A petty man would think so.

Don't be small-minded, Chen Gong.

The Military Intelligence Agency gave him

a military order to solve the case.

Well, sometimes,

you also should understand Mi Chong.

I know you're in a quandary.

All right, all right.

It's just my duty.

I should be troubled, right?

How about

taking me out for some fun later?

Okay.

As long as you're interested,

of course I have the time.

I'm very interested.

Where's that thing?

By the way, I bring you a secret.

I'm listening.

And it's also about Baidi.

New intelligence from Zhulong.

Siwencao Intelligence of Shu

has sent a new spy,

who's called

Xun Xu.

It's said he brought a squad of Shu soldiers with him.

Again.

They may mean business this time.

Their goal for this trip

is to assassinate Baidi.

Are they crazy?

No, they're not.

Siwencao Intelligence believes that Baidi has betrayed them.

It has caused quite a stir.

And Shu is a mess now.

Actually, it's for the best.

We can watch our enemies fighting each other.

The wolf has a winning game when the shepherds quarrel.

No.

Baidi is a rather crafty devil.

I'll let Mi Chong follow this matter.

The spy from the state of Shu

would find Baidi for us.

The play last time was not well performed.

If we find the real Baidi this time,

Mi Chong won't have any problem with you.

That would be great.

I really want Mi Chong to stop pestering me.

Why is the Military Messengers' record here?

This scribe is an old fool.

I should get him beheaded!

General Li, Chief Yang, nice to meet you.

Siwencao Intelligence welcomes you.

General Li.

Inside, please.

Who are you?

Feng Ying of Siwencao Intelligence.

From today on,

General Li Yan, Chief Imperial Secretary,

will administer Siwencao Intelligence.

Everything

should be reported and made known

to General Li first

before it is reported to the imperial court.

Have I made myself clear?

Yes.

We'll report everything

in Siwencao Intelligence to General Li first.

Chief Yang

has been in charge of Siwencao Intelligence for years.

Everyone has had a good time here.

An easy life.

You must have gotten used to it.

His Majesty ordered me to rectify the situation.

The winter is coming.

I hope that

you could also get used to it.

I've heard that

Wei spies

have infiltrated this place.

And the Baidi you sent out is now a traitor.

His misinformation

caused the complete failure of the Northern Expedition.

Fellows.

Siwencao Intelligence

is now a broken system.

It needs repairing.

Feng Ying.

What's the real name

of this Baidi?

General Li.

This is top secret.

Please allow me to report it

to you in private later.

Look at him!

He's living proof.

Baidi has betrayed us.

What's the point of keeping his secret?

You're in a rut.

In the Wei State,

it's already made public.

But in our intelligence agency,

there's secret and there's the blockade.

What do you think you're doing?!

General Li.

I mean, it's too long a story to be reported

at a time like this.

I'm afraid

it may delay your instructions.

I'm looking forward

to the story you're going to tell later.

Sit.

You look like a frail scholar.

I didn't expect you

to be such a good horse keeper.

I was once a navy soldier in Jingzhou

and fed the military horses for a few years.

I see.

Xun Xu?

Why did you get out?

I stayed in the attic for two days.

It's so boring. I couldn't stay there any longer.

Lin Liang, why didn't you stop him?

Have you forgotten the lesson last time?

Mr. Chen, you're right.

It's my fault.

Chen Gong, don't blame him.

I insisted to come out.

Don't worry.

I've checked around.

Nothing abnormal.

The time in Tianshui Messengers' record doesn't tally with

the actual time when Guo Gang got the intelligence

from Zhulong.

This Zhulong hides so well.

It's not easy to find him.

Today I heard

some unexpected news.

What is it?

Guo Gang said that Zhulong had sent new intelligence again.

What is it about?

It has a name and a goal.

It's about your coming to Tianshui.

Very few people know about my coming here.

In Siwencao Intelligence,

there's no secret now.

But that was too fast.

If we can't uncover Zhulong,

both you and I

will be screwed.

This time, I've come

to set some rules first.

First,

within Siwencao Intelligence,

no one shall form any clique.

Second,

the competent get promoted

while the mediocre step down
