Having said this, he looked up to the sky and sighed, "I hope it's not too late."
At this time, everything was calm in the Prince's Mansion. It was obvious that the Great Tu Kingdom did not immediately target Prince Xiao Jingyun, but chose Liu Xiangnan, who had a high prestige in the military. It must be said that this was Prince Xiao Jingyun's luck.
Prince Xiao Jingyun felt tight in his heart after listening to Liu Kai's narration.
Of course he knew about the Black Wolf Guards, but in his impression, the Black Wolf Guards were mostly responsible for guarding the mainland of the Great Earth Kingdom and rarely left their capital.
It is even rarer to leave the country.
But this group of people were cruel and ruthless, and it was in line with their style to attack Liu Xiangnan directly.
Xiao Jingyun thought for a moment, and immediately ordered Zhou Quan to disperse all the guards in the palace, and then sent someone to notify Bai Han, who was guarding the palace, to protect his father's safety.
But even so, it was still a step too late. Soon the guards sent out came back to report that at least three ministers had been assassinated, all of them high-ranking officials.
Hearing the news, Jamel Xiao felt sad in his heart.
He immediately ordered the entire city to be cordoned off and searched house to house to capture these killers from the Great Earth Kingdom.
However, it is obvious that this method is of no use to these top experts.
Searching from night to day, and from day to night, the search lasted for a whole day, but nothing was gained, but it was not without some effect. That night, the entire Wannian City felt like facing a formidable enemy, and all the mansions , all with lights on.
The imperial guards responsible for guarding the palace did not dare to blink.
But after everyone had been busy all night, it was calm and nothing happened.
Xiao Jingyun took it for granted that his search had scared the killer away.
But Liu Xiangnan frowned. He had been dealing with the Great Earth Kingdom for many years. Of course, he knew these Black Wolf Guards very well.
Even if their retreat is temporary, they will never stop just because of a single round of arrests. After all, the Lotus Cult leader killed dozens of them, how could they stop after killing two or three people.
After thinking about it, Liu Xiangnan decided to come to see Xiao Jingyun.
Xiao Jingyun had to be advised to be more cautious, but after hearing Liu Xiangnan’s story, Prince Xiao Jingyun burst into laughter, “Liu Aiqing, you are too cautious, we have searched with great fanfare for so long, there is no way they can continue to stay here. "
Seeing such confident Xiao Jingyun, Liu Xiangnan was at his wits' end.
Although Xiao Jingyun had relaxed his vigilance, Liu Xiangnan did not dare to be careless. When he returned home, he called Liu Tie and others over again to make arrangements.
His first arrangement was to send Chen Xiaobei home. It was too dangerous to stay in his house.
The important task of persuading Chen Xiaobei to leave fell on Liu Kai.
After lunch, Chen Xiaobei was leaning in front of the window and taking a nap in the sun. He couldn't sleep well at night and had to catch up on his sleep during the day.
Seeing Liu Kai coming, he quickly stood up to greet him, "The butler is here."
Liu Kai bowed respectfully, "I've met my uncle."
"Butler, is there something wrong with me?"
"Uncle, let's get straight to the point. It's not peaceful in the capital these days."
"In my opinion, my uncle should return to Hetou Village early, and we will make the rest plans later!"
Hearing this, Chen Xiaobei understood that Liu Xiangnan had sent him to persuade him to leave.
But having said that, what he did was right. Liu Xiangnan really did it for his own good this time.
"Butler, I know that my father-in-law is doing it for my own good, but Rumei's whereabouts are unknown, how can I leave?"
"Uncle, you don't need to worry about this. Once I have news about the young lady, I will send someone to send you a message immediately."
"Let Liu Tie Liu Ce and the others go back with you. It will be more convenient for them to come and go."
Chen Xiaobei shook his head stubbornly, "I won't leave."
"Uncle, think about it again. The Marquis is a key target of the enemy. It is too dangerous for you to stay here. If you really don't want to leave, then why not go out and hide."
After Chen Xiaobei heard this, he understood that if he did not leave the house today, Liu Kai would not give up.
Thinking of this, Chen Xiaobei finally relented, "Then I'll go out and find an inn to stay for a few days!"
"That's fine, you can come back after this storm is over."
Liu Kai finally breathed a sigh of relief. The task Liu Xiangnan had given him could be considered half completed.
After hearing what he said, Liu Xiangnan nodded, "That's fine. As long as he leaves my house, Liu Xiangnan, he will be a passerby and no one will pay attention to him."
Hearing that Chen Xiaobei was moving out, the Lotus Leader and Shen Ziyan were also quite surprised.
Shen Ziyan hesitated for a moment and said to the Lotus Leader, "Senior Sister, let's move out."
The Lotus Leader nodded, "Yes, we have to go out. We will go wherever he goes. We can't let him have any problems, otherwise we will be sorry for the dead Huang Ying."
Chen Xiaobei was not surprised to hear that they were moving out with him. He knew very well that the two of them stayed at Liu Xiangnan's house and did not mention going back, mostly because of himself.
At this time, in the Qingguang City of the Great Earth Kingdom, Emperor Jopson received a report from Jonah. Yelu Chuang had been chasing for four to five hundred miles without finding anything. He was turning back and searching again. Jonah sent people to search along the Xiaoqing River, but found nothing.
This was strange. Jopson frowned and walked back and forth in his room.
At this time, Duobang, the guard captain next to him, cupped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, I have an idea."
Jopson looked at him and said, "Just say what you have to say."
"Your Majesty, General Yeluchuang has been pursuing for hundreds of miles without finding anything. Could it be that our direction is wrong? The enemy deliberately created traces to show that they have crossed the Xiaoqing River, but in fact his people have not crossed at all."
After hearing this, Jopson's eyes lit up, "Yes, that makes sense. You should immediately arrange for a more rigorous search of the area between Xiaoqinghe and Qingguang City. Search inch by inch, even every corner." Can’t let it go.”
"By the way, how many soldiers from the Earth Kingdom have been found in the past few days?"
Duobang cupped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, hundreds of people have been found so far. I believe there will be more if the search continues."
"Okay, okay!" Jopson became happy and found hundreds of Dacang soldiers. Although the number was small, it was of great significance.
But, of course, what he missed most was Liu Rumei. As long as Liu Rumei is captured, it will be a major victory.
At this time, Liu Rumei, led by Zheng Zhun, had arrived at this ruined temple.
This ruined temple is on the top of a barren mountain. Standing at the entrance of the temple, you can see the bottom of the mountain at a glance, and the view is excellent.
There are still two or three complete rooms in the temple. It is convenient to get some firewood from the surroundings to light the fire, but the biggest problem that troubles them is food.
