Outside the Changping Palace.
Yuwen Chengdu stood on his horse with his head held high and his chest held high. The gold-plated phoenix wings in his palm knocked gently on the ground, making a soft "ding-dang" sound.
Not long after.
The palace door creaked open.
A servant in green clothes and a small hat walked out quickly, raised his hands and saluted: "General Yuwen, my prince has invited you!"
"Good work!"
Yuwen Chengdu nodded, immediately got off his horse, and raised his legs to go to the palace.
"Hey...General, wait a minute!"
Sudden.
The servant stretched out his hand to stop him and said.
"anything?"
Yuwen Chengdu frowned, and he was full of pressure and was ready to kill the servant immediately.
"My prince has always had a rule. If a general enters the palace, he can only bring five personal soldiers. Please forgive me, general."
Seeing Yu Wen Chengdu's power, the servant naturally trembled and said quickly.
"I see...that's all! I'm expecting a guest, so I respect the host's wishes!"
After hearing what Qiu Rui's servant said.
Yuwen Chengdu nodded slightly and said.
Subsequently.
He ordered five personal soldiers and headed towards Qiu Rui's mansion.
but.
When you come to the door.
Yuwen Chengdu suddenly turned around and said to the soldiers behind him: "Take off the sword from your waist!"
"General, why do you want to take off your sword?"
The soldiers under his command were puzzled and asked doubtfully.
"Hahaha... We came here rashly, carrying weapons with us. If the prince catches us, wouldn't it cause trouble? Do you think so?"
As he spoke, Yuwen Chengdu looked at Qiu Rui's servant and said.
"Ah, yes, yes! General Yuwen, please follow me into the mansion!"
Listen to what Yuwen Chengdu said.
The servant didn't dare to say anything.
He bowed slightly and introduced Yuwen Chengdu and five soldiers into the palace.
Enter the mansion.
Yuwen Chengdu went straight to the main hall.
When he looked up, he saw Qiu Rui wearing a brocade robe and the old god sitting at the table.
"The last general Yuwen Chengdu has seen the king reach a thousand years old!"
See this situation.
Yuwen Chengdu stood at the foot of the steps and saluted respectfully.
"It turns out that General Tianbao has arrived. Please excuse me quickly..."
When Qiu Rui heard this, his eyes fell on Yuwen Chengdu.
I saw that Yuwen Chengdu was wearing a helmet and armor, but he was not carrying a weapon. He was obviously very thoughtful.
Qiu Rui unconsciously nodded slightly, and then said: "Yuwen Chengdu, let me ask you, what do you want to do when you lead the army to surround the mansion in the middle of the night?"
When Yuwen Chengdu heard Qiu Rui's question, he immediately told Qiu Rui everything that happened to Yuwen Zhi and there tonight.
After listening to Yuwen Chengdu’s words.
Qiu Rui sneered and said, "That Yuwen Zhiji has always bullied men and dominated women, and now he deserves what he deserves. You are still searching the streets with a shameless face, and you are not afraid of losing Yuwen Shu's face?"
Yuwen Chengdu sighed and said: "My lord, please calm down. Although it was my uncle's fault to bully men and women, the thieves who killed my uncle set fire along the street and injured many innocent people, so I will definitely do it in the end." Get him!"
Speaking of which.
Yuwen Chengdu told Qiu Rui everything about how he caught the thief and how he chased him here but there was no trace.
Hearing this, Qiu Rui nodded and said, "In that case, how will you treat me?"
Yuwen Chengdu said: "I also ask Wang Jiaqiansui to allow me to search the palace. After the search is completed, if the thief is not found, I will definitely apologize to Wang Jiaqiansui!"
"Hahahaha! Yuwen Chengdu, Yuwen Chengdu! Do you really think that my palace can search easily? However, things are urgent tonight... Qiu Yi!"
Listen to what Yuwen Chengdu said.
Qiu Rui sneered unconsciously.
but.
He changed his mind and called the servant who had just brought Yuwen Chengdu in.
"What are your orders, Your Majesty?"
The servant named Qiu Yi bowed and asked.
"Follow General Yuwen to find the thieves!"
Qiu Rui waved his hand and said to Qiu Yi.
"The villain takes orders!"
Qiu Yi bowed and accepted the order.
"Thank you so much, Wang Jia Qiansui!"
Yuwen Chengdu also clasped his fists slightly.
Subsequently.
Under the leadership of Qiu Yi.
Yuwen Chengdu led five soldiers, holding torches, and searched everywhere, starting from the front courtyards, but found nothing. After searching again and again, they found the back garden.
Entered the garden gate.
Yuwen Chengdu's eyes couldn't help but search in the wet mud.
But the ground was clean, not even a single footprint.
"No! I did see the thieves disappearing near here just now. Could it be that the thieves are related to King Changping and were ordered by him?"
While walking, Yuwen Chengdu thought secretly in his heart.
Unknowingly.
He had reached a bamboo forest in the southeast corner of the garden.
"The king is a thousand years old, what's so famous about this bamboo forest?"
Yuwen Chengdu turned around and asked Qiu Ruidao.
Qiu Rui touched his beard and said: "This bamboo forest is my favorite thing. I have raised it for many years."
"The general suspects that the thieves are hiding in the bamboo forest. I wonder if the king, who is a thousand years old, can cut off his love?"
Yuwen Chengdu carefully observed Qiu Rui's expression.
He found himself walking towards the bamboo forest, and there was indeed a trace of panic on Qiu Rui's face.
He was not sure whether Qiu Rui cared about the bamboo forest or the people hidden in the bamboo forest, so he opened his mouth to test.
"You want to cut down bamboo to search for thieves? That's not possible!"
really.

After hearing what Yuwen Chengdu said.
Qiu Rui waved his hands quickly.
Saw such a scene.
Yuwen Chengdu laughed secretly in his heart: "Hahaha... If you don't let me cut down bamboo and search for thieves, maybe there is something really wrong here!"
Think of this.
He said loudly to Qiu Rui: "Your Majesty, according to the general's opinion, this bamboo must be cut down! After the thieves are captured, the general will send people to the south to buy you better bamboo to make up for it. If you refuse, the general will Cutting down bamboo, the last general will say something bold. Don’t feel bad about the thousand-year-old king - could it be that you are still involved with these thieves? "
Upon hearing this.
Qiu Rui's face changed slightly.
Because Qin Qiong, Wang Ke, Chai Shao, Li Shimin, Wang Bodang, Xie Yingdeng, Xiong Kuohai, Qi Guoyuan, and Li Rugui were hidden in the bamboo forest!
It's too late, but it's soon.
Just when Yuwen Chengdu was about to step into the bamboo forest.
But I heard a burst of rapid footsteps coming from far and near.
But it was a soldier under Yuwen Chengdu who rushed in.
"General! There are fires at the north gate and east gate. It seems like there are thieves causing trouble!"
The soldier looked anxious and reported to Yuwen Chengdu.
"Isn't General Zuo Tiancheng at the north gate? He can't resist the thieves?"
Yuwen Chengdu asked.
"It is said that the thief is so powerful that General Zuo Tiancheng cannot resist him!"
The soldier quickly replied.
"Could it be that the thieves' plan to make Jin Chan escape from his shell really went to the North Gate?"
Even Zuo Tiancheng couldn't resist Wenting.
Yuwen Chengdu couldn't help but picture the figure of Xiong Kuohai.
According to the majestic sea method.
This Zuo Tiancheng was indeed no match.
"That's all! Go to the north gate first and check the situation after 5! Retreat the troops!"
When I think of such a scene.
Yuwen Chengdu had no intention of searching the so-called bamboo forest.
He waved his hand, said goodbye to Qiu Rui, and immediately led his troops and hurried towards the north gate.
