Zhao Buxing snorted and sneered: "It turns out that you, the woman in the hidden door, are no different from the prostitutes in the market, do you want to give you some silver money after the prince of this world has an affair with you, as a reward for entanglement of your head?"

When Shui Yaoxian heard this, he grabbed his neck fiercely, gritted his teeth and said, "This seat will kill you tonight, don't think that you can escape with a few words of ridicule." Zhao Shizi, tell you one more thing, King Anle has also had a good time with this seat, I hope you are better than him......"

As soon as the words fell, the clothes on Zhao Anyi's body had been torn to shreds by the diffuse true power.

Shui Yaoxian sealed his acupoint, pressed him directly on the bookcase, supported the jade root with his soft palm, and said with ruthlessness in his eyes: "This seat is going to train you to be a male pet, and you will never be able to leave the seat from now on." ”

Zhao Yi gritted his teeth and said: "I'm afraid that after you taste the capital of this world, you will be deeply fascinated." ”

Shui Yaoxian sneered, stopped talking, and began her amorous methods.

Looking at Shui Yaoxian who was up and down on his body, Zhao was uneasy and felt a kind of humiliation in his heart, his stomach cramped, and a wave of nausea arose.

……

Outside the Anle Palace

On the roof of a building

Hua Manlou frowned and asked, "Why did that Prince of Anle pretend to be a person from Tianzun?"

Lu Xiaofeng, who was next to him, shook his head and said, "Who knows, the former Song Dynasty and the Hidden Gate are a little deep, and it is not surprising that they know Tianzun." I think this Zhao family should want to test it. ”

Hua Manlou asked: "What can he test out like this?"

Lu Xiaofeng frowned, shook his head and said, "I don't know, let's take a look." ”

Hua Manlou nodded and said, "But that's the only way, in other words, don't you plan to tell your apprentice about the true identity of the plum blossom thief?"

Lu Xiaofeng smiled and said: "Let him check slowly, there are always people who want to take this opportunity to do things, this is a kind of experience for him." My apprentice, I can't do it without experience. ”

Hua Manlou said: "But he has more experience, and it has an impact on his martial arts, so don't you worry?"

Lu Xiaofeng smiled even more happily and said, "It's enough for the nameless technique to have this appearance before he really breaks through the grandmaster, and the ninth to eighteenth diagrams can't be practiced, unless he has great heart and perseverance." ”

Hua Manlou was surprised: "Do you already know the origin of the nameless exercise?"

Lu Xiaofeng nodded and said, "Not only do I know, but you also know, and the honest monk also knows." It's just that you've forgotten it, but I'm remembering it little by little. ”

Hua Manlou frowned, nodded slightly, and said, "I hope you can remember the Great Tribulation." ”

Lu Xiaofeng said distressedly: "Hopefully." ”

……

Early the next morning, Li Le put on his clothes under the gentle service of the two women, and just after breakfast, Dongfang Zhuo came.

Just put a large number of cases on the table, and said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has asked the Supreme Lord for a decree, so it is very smooth to get the case of these victims in the Anti-Kou Division, starting from the case of Earl Ying's family on the 12th of last month, until the case of Miss Ruan on the 28th, a total of twenty-four cases. ”

"The slaves and maids in the palace also said that they had just gone to the morgue of the Yamen of the Anti-Kou Division with the slaves and maids to identify the faces of the victim women. When the matter there is settled, he will visit the residences of the other victims, and I believe that it will not be long before the results will be obtained. ”

Li Le nodded slightly and said, "It's hard work." ”

Then he began to look through the case comprehensive, and asked as he looked at it: "Did you tell the prince all my judgment yesterday?"

Dongfang Zhuo nodded and said: "Say, the prince said that it is already very remarkable to have these judgments, and I believe that the case will be solved soon." originally intended to let the third prince have full authority to supervise the case, but he disagreed with the Supreme Master. ”

Li Le hummed and said: "It is reasonable, after all, Xuanyi is not a court institution, if it is justified and started, I am afraid that the courtiers will make waves again." The prince's temperament is still too anxious, and he always wants Xuanyi to be subordinate to the official as soon as possible. This can't be done, there is no big war that can overwhelm the Dong family, and there is no way to make the courtiers compromise. ”

Dongfang Zhuo said: "The Supreme Lord seems to mean the same thing, telling His Royal Highness the Crown Prince that it is necessary to go step by step, the case of the plum blossom thief is an attempt, and it will not be a good start until the case is really solved." ”

Li Le nodded and said, "That's true, don't talk about this, how are other things arranged?"

Dongfang Zhuo said: "When the city gate was first opened this morning, my subordinates had already sent a message to Qianlizhai, and I believe that Mr. Xiangru will make adjustments soon." It is expected that some of the trained Xuanyi will enter Beijing tomorrow for a covert investigation. An Le Gambling has also sent the portrait over, and the leader on duty there is Su Renjie, who used to inquire about the rivers and lakes, and I believe that there will be results soon. ”

Speaking of this, Dongfang Zhuo asked suspiciously: "Third son, there is something that my subordinates don't understand. ”

Li Le flipped through the case and replied casually: "You say." ”

Dongfang Zhuo said: "Didn't the third prince say that this plum blossom thief was afraid of the third prince, so he didn't come out to commit the crime after you entered the capital? Maybe he has already left the capital, why are you still so determined to investigate in the capital." ”

Li Le smiled and said: "Because the birthday of the Supreme has not yet arrived, since the plum blossom thief may be a foreign noble or a noble guard, then he will not leave Beijing before the Supreme birthday." ”

Dongfang Zhuo suddenly said: "I see, if there is a foreign nobleman or their guard, and suddenly enters the capital at some time, then this person is very suspicious." Come to think of it, with the prudence of the plum blossom thief, he should not have made such a reckless act. ”

Li Le nodded, it was affirmative, and continued: "There is another point, that is, the taste of the plum blossom thief has been raised, he likes the women of the noble family of Gaomenxun, and in this big business, where else can there be more noblewomen and nobles than the capital?"

Dongfang Zhuo admired: "This is indeed the truth, the third prince has seen everything. ”

Li Le chuckled, and really suffered his ass. At this moment, he had finished reading the case, but he couldn't help frowning.

Seeing him like this, Dongfang Zhuo asked curiously, "What did the third prince discover?"

Li Le said: "Yes, the plum blossom thief seems to think that the officials are more noble than usual." ”

Dongfang Zhuo was puzzled and asked, "How can you see it?"

Li Le said: "We analyzed before, the plum blossom thief started from low to high, until the end, the desire swelled, and the idea was hit on Princess Yonghe. The first object he attacked was Earl Ying's Mansion, and then Earl Ma's family, which was on the same level as Earl Ying, and after two or three shots, he raised his eyes to the Marquis's family. ”

After three or five more times, he began to attack the officials. First was a seventh-rank official of the Ministry of Rites, then a fifth-rank member of the Household Department, an official between the seventh and fourth grades, and finally Ruan Futai, the Jingzhao Mansion Yin from the third grade. Did you find a problem?"

Dongfang Zhuo asked, "What's the problem?"

Li Le said: "The plum blossom thieves are only the nobles and civil officials, but they never touch the gate." ”

Dongfang Zhuo nodded and said: "It's really suspicious, if you say that he is afraid of the strong methods of the generals, it doesn't seem to make sense." In addition to the generals in Beijing, the guards of the other military generals in the court do not seem to be much stronger than those of the noble family. ”

Li Le hummed and said, "Does that mean that the plum blossom thief himself, or his ancestors, once received the favor of the military general's court? Or was it also a general's before his family fell?"

Dongfang Zhuo frowned and thought for a while: "There is this possibility, do you want to go down and find some declining Jiangmen people?"

Li Le shook his head and said: "No, in the two years since the founding of the country, there have been too many generals in decline, and they can't be found at all." Another thing that is more abrupt is that since the plum blossom robbery crime is from low to high, why did it suddenly jump directly from the Ruan Futai case to Princess Yonghe. So, why didn't he move the dignitaries in the middle?"

Dongfang Zhuo said: "This is a question, does the third prince have an answer?"

Li Le sighed: "No, this place is really incomprehensible. It seems that you can only understand it after you catch the plum thief. Now we can first roughly circle the place where the plum blossom thief may commit a crime next time, and when the offerings in the palace come back, maybe the scope can be further narrowed. ”

As he spoke, Li Le took out a map of the distribution of Jingcheng wells from behind the bookcase, laid it out, placed it in the position of the yamen of Jingzhao Mansion, and said, "This is Miss Ruan's house." ”

Then he moved his finger to the Dingguo Mansion and said: "This is the old five families, so presumably the plum blossom thief will commit a crime next time, and he will definitely choose the noblewomen and daughters between Miss Ruan and Princess Yonghe." In this way, there will be a limit to what can be delineated. For example, the national government offices, as well as the homes of officials above the third grade. ”

Dongfang Zhuo frowned and said: "In the Guogong Mansion in the capital, in addition to the Jiangmen, there are four families, Wu Guogong Wen's family, Yue Guogong Liu's family, Qi Guogongqu's family, and Yanguo's Mu family. The four surnames of Zhenguo, except for the Han family, the other families just have a separate business in Beijing. ”

"To the remaining officials above the third grade, there are eight from the second grade, five from the second grade, four from the first grade, and then the eight ministers of the first grade. If all the manpower is arranged to keep an eye on the defense, I am afraid that there will be insufficient manpower. ”

Li Le nodded and said: "Therefore, we have to wait for the worship in the palace to come back and summarize the similarities and differences of the victim woman, so that the difficulty will be reduced a lot, I hope that the worship will be rewarded." ”

Dongfang Zhuo sighed: "There should be." ”

The two discussed until the afternoon, when the old worshipper in the palace arrived at the eldest princess's mansion. After receiving the next rumor, Li Le did not hesitate, and directly called someone to call the old worshipper to the study and wait for the result.
