Chapter 497: Praying Mantis Catches Cicadas
It's a pity that Lang's heart is like iron, Ning Yi said unmoved: "Leave immediately or go to the Criminal Division with me, you choose one." ”
He Linwan simply said scoundrelly: "Either let me go, or take me to the Shen Criminal Division, you choose one!"
Ning Yi looked at He Linwan coldly for a moment, then twisted her back collar again, and dragged her away, "Since you want to go to the Criminal Division so much, I will fulfill you." ”
He Linwan was twisted like a quail by Ning Yi, and her image on weekdays was completely gone, and she was almost angry. No one would do this when she was still a dignified and elegant Yang Weizhen, and no one would dare to do this when she became a mighty and domineering He Linwan, that is, Ning Yi.
In a hurry, He Linwan scratched Ning Yi's waist with his backhand, Ning Yi shook almost imperceptibly and let go of his hand.
He Linwan regained his freedom, and glared at Ning Yi fiercely while tidying up his clothes.
The two grew up together since childhood, of course He Linwan knew where Ye Yining's weaknesses were, when he was a child, every time He Linwan made a gesture to scratch Ye Yining, Ye Yining took the initiative to surrender. It's just that this slightly intimate little game will no longer be played after the two grow up, and it was also He Linwan's unconscious action just now.
Ning Yi looked at He Linwan, the emotions in his eyes were difficult to distinguish, and just when He Linwan thought that Ning Yi had doubts about her identity because of her counterattack just now, Ning Yi's expression returned to coldness.
"Others are so important to you, you can even live or not."
He Linwan glanced at Ning Yi and sighed: "I'm not trying to fight for anyone, I'm not so self-conscious, I really just want to stand in the distance and take a look." ”
Ning Yi stared at He Linwan for a moment, "You don't seem to be too worried about the people inside." ”
Ning Yi also reacted at this time, He Linwan was still in the mood to deal with him here because she was not in a hurry, at least not as anxious as he thought. Otherwise, if she really wanted to force her out, he might not be able to stop her.
At this time, Mu Zhizhen had already led people into the Wanshou Palace.
Mu Zhizhen made a gesture, and his subordinates rushed into the main hall of the Wanshou Palace with several martial arts masters.
However, they searched up and down the Wanshou Palace, but they did not find any suspicious person.
"Childe, no one. The guard at the front door didn't see anyone going out either. ”
The subordinates were puzzled, he was sure that there were people in the Wanshou Palace before they came in, and they guarded the various exits of the Wanshou Palace before they came in, wanting to catch turtles in an urn, but the people trapped inside disappeared out of thin air.
Mu Zhizhen was not surprised, if that person was really so easy to be caught, he would not become a problem today.
"Search again to see if there is a secret entrance. "It is impossible for a person to disappear out of thin air, there is either a secret room or a secret passage in this Wanshou Palace.
The subordinates took the order and carefully searched the various rooms of this Wanshou Palace.
Mu Zhizhen walked under the laurel tree in the middle of the courtyard and looked at the old tree, his expression was a little trance-like. He remembered that when he was a child, he spent a lot of time in this courtyard with Li Yu and Li Heng, and the old queen mother was still there at that time.
The old man likes to sit in the shade of the tree while eating melon seeds while telling them stories, in fact, the old queen mother tells only a few stories over and over again, what "Chang'e secretly eats immortal medicine", "Gonggong knocked down Buzhou Mountain" He and Li Yu can be upside down, and they can't bear to tell the old queen mother that they are tired of listening, so every time he hears half of it, he deliberately asks the old lady, "Grandmother, is the immortal medicine better than the yam cake you make?", "Grandmother, don't you grow peaches on Zhou Mountain?"
Li Xiaoheng, who didn't have any teeth, couldn't understand the story, but he could understand the food, so he began to grab the old lady's leg and make a fuss about eating. At this time, Li Yu would pretend to be black and make Li Xiaoheng cry, and the old queen mother immediately felt sorry for her little grandson, stopped telling them stories, and went to give Li Xiaoheng Zhang Luo food in person.
Speaking of which, he and Li Yu have cooperated tacitly since childhood, and they have never blushed and quarreled.
Mu Zhizhen came back to his senses from his memories and raised his hand to touch the trunk of the tree, when he suddenly noticed that the soil under the tree had been turned over.
Today, in the daytime, Mu Zhizhen has already checked the top and bottom of the Wanshou Palace, and the soil was fine at that time, thinking of this, Mu Zhizhen squatted down to carefully inspect the soil, and found that the place near the trunk was very soft.
Mu Zhizhen thought of a possibility, and immediately peeled off the piece of soil, and then found a small wooden box the size of a palm from inside. When the wooden box was held in his hand, Mu Zhizhen was stunned, this box was very old, the workmanship was rough, and the paint had fallen off, it looked like the old queen mother's things.
The old empress dowager's ancestors were carpenters, and she herself would do some rough carpentry work, Mu Zhizhen heard the old empress dowager proudly mention that she relied on this craft to raise Emperor Taizu for many years when she was young. Afraid that they would not believe it, she also made rattles and small wooden horses for them with her own hands.
Mu Zhizhen opened the wooden box and found that it was a Xuantie token inside, which read "Seeing the order is like seeing the king".
Rao is Mu Zhizhen is calm and self-controlled, and he can't help but widen his eyes when he sees this token clearly.
Of course, Mu Zhizhen knew about this token, which was left by the old Jin King, and he could command his old department.
After the death of the old Jin king, he handed over most of his old ministry to his grandfather, but in fact, his grandfather did not hold all the power of the old Jin king, and legend has it that there are some dark departments with high loyalty that even his grandfather did not know, that was the last honor guard left by the king of Jin to the descendants of the Jin king's mansion, and the list of those old departments was hidden in a dark iron token.
Mu Zhizhen knew that the token was in the hands of the old queen mother, and Li Yu's purpose in entering the palace was mostly for this token, but why is this token here?
Mu Zhizhen was shocked in his heart, and after thinking about it, he split the token in half, wanting to see if the list was still there.
After opening it, I saw that there was a piece of paper hidden inside.
Mu Zhizhen was vigilant, and after seeing the things inside, he didn't take them out to check them for the first time, and he faintly felt that something was wrong in his heart.
At this moment, someone broke in through the main entrance, and there were many people listening to the movement.
Mu Zhizhen looked at the thing in his hand and was about to react, when the paper in the token suddenly spontaneously combusted, and a fire lit up in the dark courtyard.
Mu Zhizhen secretly screamed in his heart, and wanted to extinguish the fire on the paper, but the paper was very thin and quickly burned out.
The intruder also happened to appear.
Mu Zhizhen glanced up and found that the person who came was someone from the Shen Criminal Division.
Si Zheng, the prudent punishment division, looked at Mu Zhizhen and smiled kindly, "Master Mu, what a coincidence." ”
