"Yes, but if this happens, problems will naturally arise."

Chen Yutian spoke slowly and pointed to the palace beside him.

"Would a person who was really planning to assassinate the emperor make such a big fanfare, even spreading such news out of fear that others wouldn't know?"

Hearing this, Shi Dongji remained silent.

Chen Yutian said: "The answer is naturally no! A person who really assassinates the current emperor will not only not tell anyone his plan, but he will even be very careful to prevent others from knowing about it. After all, , if one more person knows, there will be more chances of leakage, and your actions will be more dangerous."

After hearing this, everyone nodded slightly.

Indeed, this is what ordinary people think and do!

"But our murderers didn't do this at all. Not only did they not protect information related to their ultimate criminal purpose, they also wanted to let everyone in the world know about it. Do you think there is such a criminal?" Chen Yutian asked everyone.

Everyone shook their heads.

But soon, Chen Yutian also shook his head.

"No, you are wrong. There are indeed such prisoners, but such prisoners are often drunkards who are not interested in drinking."

As he spoke, an almost sarcastic smile appeared on his face, he looked at Shi Dongji and said.

"For example, the man standing before us. He is such a murderer."

Shi Dongji smiled bitterly.

"To put it simply, your abnormal behavior made me feel a little strange, so I started to reorganize my thoughts and consider this case. At this time, a mysterious man suddenly visited my residence and returned the money to me. A note was left.”

Having said this, he took out a piece of white paper from his arms again.

Shi Dongji narrowed his eyes slightly, and with the dim moonlight in the sky, he could barely see the writing on the paper clearly.

On the paper, there were only five words.

Are you cows? !

These five words were very short, but in the eyes of Shi Dongji and Gongsun, they had different meanings.

Cow is a very common animal.

Anyone who has seen a cow should know that a cow wears a very ordinary ring on its nose.

Those who have seen farmers pulling cattle will often find that the reins of the cattle are mostly tied to this ring.

Therefore, cattle are generally led by the nose.

The metaphorical meaning of this note is that they have always been led by the murderer.

Chen Yutian saw this profound meaning. The hole release machine saw it. Gongsun also saw it.

As for Chen Yutian, it was precisely because he saw this note that he fully understood Shi Dongji's plan to attack the east and attack the west. But at that time, he didn't know that the target of the cave machine was the Zhenbao Tower.

"I see. It was after you saw this note that you figured out my plan to invade the east and attack the west, right?"

Shi Dongji narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the note, and sighed slightly, "It seems that my luck is really bad..."

Chen Yutian shook his head.

"Perhaps your luck is really bad... But don't think that without the reminder of this note, I really wouldn't be able to figure out your conspiracy to attack the east and the west. After all, the loopholes you left behind, Not a lot.”

Shi Dongji nodded and said: "Yes! It seems that the so-called seamless strategy really does not exist..."

Chen Yutian nodded and said: "Not bad!"

Immediately, he looked at the square below. At this time, Xuan Ye, Xue Tianhan and Huo Yuanji, who were in the palace, also heard the movement and rushed over.

At this time, Puyang was standing in the crowd below.

"Puyang, what happened?" Xuan Ye separated from the crowd and walked to Puyang.

Puyang looked at the dense rain of arrows surrounding the figures on the attic roof, sighed softly, and then told Xuan Ye everything that had happened.



Half an hour ago.

Chen Yutian led Gongsun and others to find Puyang.

Seeing him, Puyang suddenly became curious. When did this guy arrive?

As soon as Chen Yutian arrived, he said directly: "Puyang, how many troops do you have left to use now?"

Hearing this, Puyang blinked, hesitated for a moment, and replied: "Almost all the troops in the imperial palace have been transferred to guard the inner gardens of the palace. The only people I can use here now are only half of the imperial city troops who were transferred to help. .”

Chen Yutian asked: "How many people are there?"

Puyang looked behind him and waved. Immediately, a man appeared from the imperial army behind him. This man was a little short and fat. When he came to Puyang, he immediately saluted respectfully: "I will see you, general!"

Puyang waved his hand and said, "Get up and talk."

The pudgy Imperial City Army member immediately responded and stood up.

Puyang asked: "Commander Zhang, let me ask you, how many troops do you have in total?"

Commander Zhang said: "About five hundred people! What's wrong?"

Puyang did not answer, but looked at Chen Yutian beside him and asked, "How is it?"

Chen Yutian nodded: "That should be enough. Now bring your troops and follow me immediately."

Commander Zhang looked at Chen Yutian in confusion, then at Puyang, "General Puyang..."

"Take your people and follow."

Puyang looked at Commander Zhang, then took a step forward and left directly with Chen Yutian.

Gongsun and the five others followed closely.

Commander Zhang followed closely with his subordinates.

Not long after, everyone arrived at a location not far from the treasure house, and saw a black figure on the roof from a distance.

"That's..." Puyang looked at the figure on the roof and was slightly surprised.

Chen Yutian looked at him and smiled slightly: "Sure enough, he's here..."

Puyang looked at Chen Yutian in surprise and asked, "Brother Chen, what is that?"

Chen Yutian smiled and replied in a low voice: "Of course he is the culprit behind the twelve bombings in the capital."

"What?"

Puyang was shocked and asked: "Didn't he want to assassinate His Majesty? Why did he end up in this Treasure Pavilion?"

Chen Yutian smiled slightly: "This... he has to ask himself, but obviously, the other party's purpose is definitely not His Majesty, otherwise he would not be here."

Hearing this, not only Puyang was surprised, but Gongsun and others were also shocked.

"So, this is basically..." Puyang said.

Chen Yutian nodded slightly: "Yes, this is a plan to attack the east and attack the west!"

Speaking of this, Chen Yutian saw the figure on the roof jump down and enter the treasure house.

Chen Yutian sighed and said: "It seems that the other party's purpose is not to assassinate His Majesty, but to steal things from Dao Zhenbao Pavilion!"

Puyang was also shocked and said: "Then let's..."

Chen Yutian smiled slightly.

"When he comes out later, I will find a way to leave him on the roof first. You guys stay here and wait. Once you hear me say the words 'Do you still have such a chance?' Action, do you understand?"

Puyang nodded and said, "I understand."

Chen Yutian nodded, then jumped up with Gongsun and others, heading directly towards the roof of the treasure house.
