Chapter 30: A Puzzle Within a Game

"After nightfall this day, you went out of the city alone, all the way to the southeast. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info" Long Xingye looked at Long Hao, and as he spoke, he couldn't help but raise his right hand, middle finger and index finger.

"Father, why is that?" Long Hao frowned, puzzled.

"When you get out of the gates, you just go to the southeast, and then you will meet an old man, and then you will come back." Long Xingye turned a deaf ear, and Gu Zi continued.

"So how do I know who's I'm looking for?" This sentence is to the point, the world is vast, the sea of people is vast, who is the person I am looking for in my heart.

I saw Long Yanran pinching the handful of beard and thinking for a while, "You will naturally understand then." ”

"This..."

"Okay, that's it, after dinner, you can go." This time, Long Xingye didn't give him a chance to interrupt, and after speaking, he stood up and left.

Leaving Long Hao, sitting on the stone bench at a loss, "Forget it." As he spoke, he drank the tea in his cup as if he were drinking.

"In this way, Brother Huang and Li Xian's nephew already have some calculations in their hearts, so we can't be indifferent." After listening to what Xu Yaozong saw and heard, both father and son were like mirrors in their hearts, "Xu Gui." ”

"Sir." The butler came at the call.

"From this day onwards, if any guests come to visit, they will not be seen."

"Master, this..."

"It's all gone, but if I can't do it, I just say that I'm a little unwell and it's not easy to see customers."

"Yes."

"Father, did they find anything?" The 'they' in Xu Yaozong's words are naturally Qianmian Langjun and Zhuge Xuan.

"It's impossible, let's not mess with ourselves first, let's take one step at a time." Xu Chu stroked his precious beard, calm and composed.

At night, walking quietly, stepping on the snow without a trace... A figure, riding a horse, came from the backyard of a palace gate towards the city gate.

"Close the door." Since ancient times, there has been a curfew, and as soon as it is night, the soldiers guarding the city will close the gates, but no one is allowed to enter or leave at will.

"Wait." At this time, the four soldiers were pushing the two extremely heavy city 'hearts', slowly closing them.

"Little Lord." Before the words fell, I saw a handsome boy and brother, galloping towards the city gate on a fast horse, and the officials guarding the city were sharp-eyed and hurriedly saluted.

"I'm going to go out of town, right?" Long Hao looked down at the official from above.

"Come, open the city gate for the little prince." As soon as the official's words fell, the two square doors with vermilion wood and red lacquer immediately emitted a sense of the vicissitudes of history, and slowly opened again with the assistance of the four soldiers.

Looking at the slowly enlarged gap between the portals, Long Hao waved his hand, "Thank you." Then he took the reins of the horse and took a few steps back, clamping his legs between the sides of the horse, and then he heard the horse neighing in the sky, like a bow and arrow of the full moon, and flew out, and a man and a horse passed through the gap like a white horse, and drilled out of the city gate.

The rest of the group looked at each other in astonishment and bewilderment.

Although his heart was shocked, the official guarding the city did not forget his duty, and seeing the figure outside the city gate getting farther and farther away, with a gesture of his left hand, a soldier stepped forward, "You go and inform Lin Shuai that the little prince will ride his horse to the southeast at midnight curfew." ”

"Yes." A figure ran towards a residence somewhere in the city.

"Who is this father asking me to find?" Long Hao rode a horse, and at this time he had been running all night, and when he saw that the sky was a little white, he was now on the side of a lake path.

At a casual glance, the corner of his eye happened to sweep to an old man, sitting on a horse, peeking from a distance, only to see the old man with a hat, dressed in a robe, holding a fishing rod in his hand, and tossing a little movement in the bamboo basket beside him from time to time, thinking that he would harvest a lot.

Long Hao suddenly came to his senses, said hello, and rode his horse to continue exploring the trail.

"Knock knock..."The dragon gave birth to nine sons, each not really, Tianyuan rang the bell nine times, hundreds of officials arrived, a red-robed figure like the stars holding the moon, slowly walking, dressed in red, gorgeous and magnificent, just like the red sun shining in the sky, meaning Tianyuan Guotai and the people's peace, such as the morning sun is thriving.

"Huh?" The person on the throne sighed softly, and then said slowly, "Why hasn't this imperial uncle come here today?" ”

When everyone below heard this, they all leaned over to look at it, and there was a trace of doubt in their eyes.

"It's late, it's late..."This Long Yanran took everyone's eyes in his eyes, and was about to open his mouth to send someone to summon Long Xingye, but unexpectedly, the sound had arrived.

"Uncle Huang, you have always been punctual, why is it today..."Long Yanran wanted to speak and stopped, but the meaning of her words was very clear.

Long Xingye bowed and saluted, "Empress, please take a look." As he spoke, he stretched out his right hand and lifted the sleeve of his left hand.

When the people in the main hall heard this, they all looked sideways, only to see that Long Xingye's sturdy and thick arms were wrapped with many bandages at this time, which was somewhat unsightly.

Listening to the people below talking in groups, Long Yanran and Lin Yan made eye contact, but they immediately separated.

"Uncle Huang, didn't there be an assassin in your mansion last night?"

"Exactly."

As soon as Long Xingye's words came out, there was an uproar below, and Xu Chu, Huang Bingjie and others also looked at each other, but they remained silent.

"Uncle Huang, what happened? Who is so bold? Long Yanran asked about the reason for the inquiry.

"Last night, I was reading in the study, and I heard a commotion, and now I think that this is clearly to divert the tiger from the mountain, and when I sent someone out to find out the reason, a soldier next to me suddenly turned against him, because the guards around him were weak, so he succeeded in this move." The painting described by Long Hoshino.

"Then Uncle Huang took down this soldier?" Long Yanran had already guessed something in her heart, but she still asked.

"Ran away." Long Xingye shrugged his hand, looking helpless.

"The Imperial Uncle's Mansion is heavily guarded, how did this assassin blend in with the guards and be able to escape with his whole body?" Long Yanran thought to herself.

"Empress, if you can't keep this assassin and his comrades, otherwise, with the strength of one person, how can he sneak into the prince's mansion." A figure stood up, it was Lin Yan.

"This king doesn't know anything, so he can only ask the empress to call the shots." Long Xingye skimmed it all away, and at this time he looked like a ruffian hooligan, so he waited for someone to wipe his ass after the aftermath.

"Empress, I want us to be dignified, first the empress was attacked, and now the prince is assassinated, who will be the turn next time? The ministers are terrified, and the ministers implore the empress to investigate this matter thoroughly, and not a single soldier or soldier can be spared. This voice was strong and heavy, and his master, Huang Bingjie, leaned over and proposed.

"Isn't that going to be too much of a drain?" Long Yanran said cautiously.

"Empress, if we don't pay attention to this matter, this is cold, but the hearts of the people and we, the ministers of civil and military affairs." Huang Bingjie's tone was excited.

Xu Chu and the others below looked at each other, no matter what the reason, many officials walked out of the queue in an instant, and they came forward to second, and the content was undoubtedly to let Long Yanran investigate the matter thoroughly and not let go of any of them.

"This..."Long Yanran hesitated slightly, "What does Li Aiqing think?" ”

Li Xiuwen trembled, "Minister, minister..."

"The empress, the ministers are willing to do their best for the empress, and after death, obey the empress's orders." Without waiting for Li Xiuwen to speak, this Xu Yaozong walked out.

"Obey the empress's orders, don't dare to disobey." Li Xiuwen's head turned around, and he also made a statement.

Long Yanran was scheming for a while, and suddenly, her brows furrowed, and she thought about it, "Zhong Aiqing is reasonable, if we don't take any measures, it will make that thief even more rampant." ”

"yes."

"Those are too bold."

"Give them a lesson, let them know the means of knowing our Tianyuan."

When the officials below responded to the peace, "Xu Shilang, this emperor will give you seven days to arrest the murderer." ”

"Commandment."

"Empress, I can't help but have a lot of dreams at night, will these seven days be too much... And if there is no punishment, how can this be supervised to move forward. "It's none other than him who said this, it's him Long Xingye.

Everyone immediately glanced at each other in unison, this is openly working against Xu Chu's family.

This resounding resoundingly, the huge Tianyuan, it was already difficult to capture an assassin in the sea of people, and now the deadline was proposed to be three days, which was simply difficult to go to the blue sky.

"Uncle Huang is right, Xu Yaozong, this emperor ordered you to catch the murderer within three days, if not, come to see him and retreat." Long Yanran snorted, and didn't forget to give Lin Yan a look before leaving.

"The Empress." Xu Yaozong knew that this matter was a big matter and would take a long time, so he hurriedly made a request.

"The Empress." Rao is Xu Chu has a very good heart, and he can't help but call lightly.

It's just that the requests of father and son are all extinguished in the wind.

"Lord Wang, our two families have always been good friends, why are you demolitioning like this today?" Xu Chu stood up and faced Long Xingye directly.

The latter was silent, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and then turned around and laughed heartily, "Hahahaha." He walked out of the temple.
