In the beautiful spring scenery, the peach blossoms are red and the willows are green.
At Shaohua, a woman was flapping the butterflies in the garden with a small fan. When the maid next to her saw this, she chased after the butterfly.
When I saw the woman tiptoeing to catch a butterfly that was sitting on a flower.
But I heard a sudden voice from behind, "Master!"
This sound only frightened the butterflies on the flowers to fly away, and the woman immediately angrily threw the small fan directly towards the guard who was half-kneeling on the ground in black.
The guard didn't dodge even when the fan hit him.
Wait until the woman has lost her breath,
He just said softly, "Master, we heard some news outside Prince Jin's Mansion."
Hear this. The woman then walked out of the peonies. She just waved her hand to signal the maids to leave.
When she and the guard were the only ones left in the garden, the woman walked towards the guard. The guard then respectfully handed the small Qingluo fan that the woman had just thrown to the ground to the woman.
The woman took the small fan smoothly, and then said with a cold expression, "You can say it now."
The guard only responded with a yes when he heard this. Then he reported in a low voice, "The Prince Jin's Mansion is still looking for the whereabouts of Prince Jin. In addition, His Highness Ninth Prince also went to Prince Jin's Mansion today. After leaving the Prince's Mansion, he only sent his entourage to go to Wu The guards of the Poison Tribe are probably also looking for King Jin."
Hearing these words, the woman almost tore the silk fan in her hand into pieces. She looked at the guard coldly and said, "Why are they still looking for the whereabouts of King Jin now? Did you kill King Jin that day?"
When the woman said this, she almost gritted her teeth.
After hearing her words, the guard said with a panicked expression, "The horse was frightened that day. The horse ran too fast. We only had time to shoot the arrow at the horse. After that, the horse was frightened and probably fell off the cliff. We Although I didn’t witness the moment he fell from the horse with my own eyes, under those circumstances, there should be no chance of surviving after falling from the horse.”
Hearing what the other party said, the woman just said angrily, "If there is no chance of survival, then why are everyone still looking for him."
Hearing this, the guard could only whisper, "How about my subordinates go over and inquire more?"
Hearing this, the woman glanced at the other party lightly, and then snorted coldly, "In that case, why don't you go get ready?"
The guard only responded "yes" to the woman's words.
Then the guard quickly left the woman's side.
In Mulan's paddock, several people were searching for King Jin's whereabouts.
The guard who just left the woman was no exception. He only took a group of guards and rode all the way to Mulan Paddock.
However, after discovering that Mulan's paddock was blocked by people, he immediately dismounted and tied the horse in the woods not far away.
They themselves hid in a tree not far away and watched the scene.
At this time, there was only a commotion in the venue. There was a group of guards gathering underneath, and Zhao Yanzhen, who was supposed to be dead, was surrounded by a group of guards in the center.
Seeing King Jin come back from the dead, the guard was obviously in disbelief.
It was really hard for him to imagine that King Jin was actually still alive.
Seeing King Jin's posture, the guard knew that if he told his master such news, he would definitely die.
Therefore, instead of being sentenced to death by his master, it is better to gamble with his life.
So after figuring this out, the guard just waved to the other guards who came with him to inquire about King Jin.
The gesture he made was telling the guards to wait until the man passed by them before taking action.
The guards also understood the fate they would encounter, and naturally nodded in cooperation.
They just drew their crossbows and arrows from behind at the same time.
When Zhao Yanzhen passed by here, he followed the guard's order.
A dozen arrows were shot from the clouds in the direction of Zhao Yanzhen at the same time.
Fortunately, the guards protecting Zhao Yanzhen were alert. Yan Ziqing, who was guarding Zhao Yanzhen, shouted "Be careful!" almost as soon as the arrow broke through the air.
And as Yan Ziqing reminded
, naturally the guards guarding Zhao Yanzhen immediately used their swords to form a dense grid to block the arrows coming from above.
The guards on the periphery aimed in the direction of the tree and used the divine machine crossbow with a longer range to shoot cold arrows at the tree.
In the sound of swords, Yan Ziqing and Yu Shisan walked towards the tree at the same time. They almost quickly grabbed the guard hiding in the tree, and they killed each other with their swords. .
As they searched for a while, all the guards in the tree were soon kicked down by them.
But in just a moment, almost all of them, together with the leading guard, were captured.
Seeing the other party being arrested, they did not dare to relax because they were afraid that the other party would be a dead soldier.
Therefore, the moment they were kicked off the tree, the guards immediately swarmed up to them. After catching them, the guards easily pulled out their molars and injected the poison hidden in the molars directly. Take it out.
After taking the poison from the molars, a group of people took off their crossbows and swords.
Finally, they tied each other up completely with hemp rope.
Without the poison of molar teeth, and without their sharp weapons, these people are really like useless scholars at the moment.
After tying up these people, Zhao Yanzhen moved forward.
He did not choose to go back directly to Prince Jin's Mansion, but took people to his manor on the outskirts of Beijing.
This manor looks inconspicuous, but in fact, almost all the slave guards inside are retired secret guards. Even the stewards in the manor now are all former secret guard leaders.
It can be said that this place is the most secure house. Of course, it also has an interrogation room with the most complete torture equipment.
Even Jiang Nianjiao didn't know where she was. The only person who was lucky enough to live in this house was Song Chuchu.
Of course, even if Song Chuchu had stayed here, it didn't mean that she knew the secrets in this house.
After all, when she first entered the residential compound, the only place she could go was the small courtyard where she was.
It's not like she hasn't thought about exploring other places, but every time she goes out, she is discovered by people, and these people not only arrest her, but are not polite to her at all.
It was also the case that Song Chuchu would risk his life to escape from this manor.
After Zhao Yanzhen dismounted, he didn't expect His Highness Ninth Prince and the leader of the secret guard to be waiting here. The old man was only wearing a gray cloth shirt and looked really ordinary.
However, when the captured guards saw each other, they all showed expressions of fear and despair.
After all, this man's background is not small. As the leader of the secret guards, in addition to being in charge of the secret guard system, almost all the secret guards in the secret guard system were his apprentices or were beholden to him.
In addition to managing the secret guards and imparting secret guard experience, he also serves as the torture officer of Zhao Prison. I heard that he can be regarded as a living king of hell. Anyone he wanted to interrogate would not fail to confess, and no one could pass the third test.
Therefore, because of this allusion, when they saw Zhou Yingqi, they were naturally frightened.
And Zhao Yanzhen indeed handed them over to Zhou Yingqi.
"Uncle Zhou, these people are the assassins who want to kill me today. I suspect that they are the same group of secret guards who tried to attack me in Mulan Paddock a few days ago, so I want to ask you to help me. I will try to find out the motive of their murder, and also find out the person behind them. Although I basically know that person in my heart, I need their confession. If I can get it out of More people would be the best, but you must not hurt those who are related to that person."
Zhou Yingqi was Zhao Yanzhen's bodyguard. After hearing his words, Zhou Yingqi naturally nodded in cooperation.
"Don't worry, Your Highness, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer."
When Zhao Yanzhen heard this, he just nodded, "Please."
Later, when Zhao Yanzhen watched Zhou Yingqi lift the guards down who looked like bereaved dogs.
Zhao Yanzhen then said to Zhao Lang, "Alang, follow me back to the house. I have something to tell you."
Zhao Lang could only nodded in cooperation.
After arriving at the flower hall, Zhao Yanzhen ordered all irrelevant people to leave.
Wait until only you and yourself are left in the inner room
Zhao Lang, he just whispered, "Alang, I asked you to come with me not for other reasons, but for the sake of your future plans with the Voodoo tribe."
After saying this, Zhao Yanzhen only handed a letter to Zhao Lang to read. Zhao Lang naturally read it carefully after hearing this.
This is a letter asking for help. The author of the letter is Zhang Lijin, the commander of the former Luanyi Guards. However, Zhang Lijin said that since Zhang Lijin followed He Lian, she quickly became He Lian's right-hand man, and after that, she also became He Lian's contact with the Yong Dynasty.
It's just that although He Lian occupies an orthodox position, he consumed too much strength due to competing with other princes for the throne in the early stage. On the contrary, He Rong, who disappeared, regained his strength after that, even because of his As a mixed-race person, he only received support from most of the Yongdi and Qiangmo people.
After that, he no longer paid attention to the brotherhood with Helian. He only took advantage of Helian and another prince of the Koso Dynasty to make a sneak attack on them. Even if the prince was killed, Helian also Defeated, Zhang Lijin took this opportunity and only approached Yongdi.
The voodoo tribe sandwiched between Yongdi and Koso became their place of help.
It's just because Zhao Lang hasn't arrived at the Voodoo Tribe yet, and the Voodoo Tribe is afraid of offending He Rong, so the two sides are not willing to accept and help them.
Because of this, Zhang Lijin could only write a letter to ask for help from Zhao Yanzhen.
Zhao Yanzhen naturally handed Zhang Lijin's letter into Zhao Lang's hands at this time.
Zhao Lang only glanced briefly and read the contents of the letter clearly. He asked puzzledly, "Third brother, what do you want me to do when you show me this?"
Zhao Yanzhen only whispered, "If you go, you can take him in if necessary, and inform Captain Chen so that he can help secretly."
