The light in the study kept on until the sky was white, and then it gradually went out, Lu Shuo and the prince sat opposite each other in the study, just chatting about the recent situation in the past six months, who knew that they had been chatting for so long.

To be honest, he didn't know the prince very well, and when he was in Taoshan Academy, the prince was a very isolated existence, and he rarely talked to him, and the two were just nodding friends. Although he later saved one in the mountains and forests, it was just forced by the situation, and the two did not have much intersection afterwards, and when they sent him to Yuluo Mountain, and then returned to Beijing from Yuluo Mountain, one is a distance problem and the other is an identity problem, and it is even more difficult for the two to talk and talk to each other.

Therefore, this small talk has become the longest time they have been together.

"Your Highness, it's not early, would you like to rest first or go out directly?"

Seeing that it was bright outside, Lu Shuo had no choice but to pour him a cup of tea and interrupt what he was about to say.

"Time flies so fast, the sun is already so high. ”

Although the prince was a little tired, the matter still had to be resolved as soon as possible, so he nodded and smiled: "Then let's pack up and go out." ”

Lu Shuo called the maid outside to come in, and when the two of them washed up, the steward outside brought someone to bring breakfast, and Lu Shuo accompanied the prince to have breakfast, and it was only half an hour before and after.

Soon several people came to the gate, and when they got on their horses, the prince suddenly turned around and asked Lu Shuo: "Don't you have to say hello to your junior sister......?"

Lu Shuo was stunned for a moment, the corners of his mouth twitched, and his heart said You still know that it is not good, and you still pulled me to say something for half a night.

On his face, he said respectfully: "No need, the steward has already told her about His Highness, she has a plan in her heart, and it is still important to do business now, let's go." ”

The prince nodded, turned around and glanced at Lu Fu, a smile appeared on his face again, and said, "Just according to what you said." ”

At the end of the hour, a team of men and horses rushed to the foot of Qi Mountain.

Lu Shuo's notice has played a big role, there has been a lot of excitement at the foot of Qi Mountain recently, whether it is far or near, they all want to come and intervene, but they don't have the ability to fight the tiger, and it is good to see the shadow of the tiger, I haven't seen that the notice has been written, as long as you really see the tiger, report to the yamen, and you can also get thirty taels of silver.

However, most of these people gathered in the mountain pass area, in order to hide people's eyes and ears, the prince wanted to investigate the case, naturally he couldn't start from these places, Lu Shuo found a good steward in advance to explore the way in advance, turned left and right all the way, and found another entrance near noon.

This entrance is very hidden, the outside is covered with grass, and it is almost impossible to see if you don't look carefully, what will be faced inside, Lu Shuo can't predict.

Therefore, seeing that the prince was about to dismount and enter, Lu Shuo stopped: "Your Highness, let's send someone in to explore the way first...... You are the prince, and you must not risk your life at this time. ”

Jiang Chen was silent all the way, and at this time he also echoed: "What Marquis Lu said is good, the minister boasts that his kung fu is good, and he is willing to go first to explore the way." ”

The prince looked at the two of them, and saw that they were all sincere persuasions, so after thinking about it, he stopped dismounting, nodded to Jiang Chen, and said, "It's okay, Jiang Aiqing go and go back quickly." ”

Jiang Chen took two men in strong suits and entered through the narrow hole.

The sun was getting higher and higher outside, and the guards temporarily led the horse to find a shaded place to stand, the prince took the water handed by the guard, raised his head and took a sip, before asking Lu Shuo: "Aiqing thinks, how likely is it that Su Cheng is alive?"

Lu Shuo didn't expect him to ask about this, thought for a while, didn't answer first, but said, "Your Highness thinks this Su Cheng is already dead?"

"It's that feeling. The crown prince nodded, "When Su Cheng died, the father and emperor of the corpse specially found someone to examine it, and there was no problem...... Moreover, in such a short period of time, it was almost impossible for Su Cheng to find someone exactly like him. ”

Lu Shuo smiled when he heard this, and said directly: "Your Highness, I'm afraid you have forgotten those same-looking little guys, these people are very evil, and they are very reasonable." Moreover, Su Cheng was able to have the audacity to raise a fake remnant from An Yuanhou, and he may not be able to leave a way back for himself as soon as possible. ”

The prince didn't think about it, and said with a smile: "In this way, Su Cheng led people to hide in Qi Mountain, which is rich in minerals, in order to make weapons and rebel again?"

Lu Shuo shook his head, looked at the hidden hole in the distance, stood beside the prince with a little dazedness, and said, "Wechen did guess like this, but how can those women explain it?" Wechen couldn't figure it out, and it was difficult to answer the next words. ”

The two of them chatted and paid attention to the entrance of the cave, and after a while, the covered grass suddenly squirmed, Lu Shuo's eyebrows moved, and he hurriedly motioned to all the people around him to crouch down, hide in the grass, and watch the movement over there without speaking.

When it was found that it was Jiang Chen and the two spies, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Chen knelt down with his sword and said, "Your Highness, Wei Chen took a closer look inside and saw several figures, all of whom were clearly dressed as Yunnannese......

Yunnan people?

Lu Shuo and the prince glanced at each other, it seemed that there were Su Cheng's people hidden inside, this idea was right.

After all, he is the only one who has a close relationship with southern Yunnan.

Just without waiting for the prince to speak, Jiang Chen continued: "These people are very vigilant, they disappeared after showing up outside for a while, and the three subordinates walked inside in hid for a while, and found an altar in the valley.

"Altar?"

Lu Shuo's voice was a little high, with some horror.

Well, it won't be what he thought it would be.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Chen was taken aback by his reaction, and hurriedly asked, "What did Lord Lu think of?"

Lu Shuo shook his head and said, "I've only heard some rumors about southern Yunnan, and this altar may be related to those girls who were bought." ”

When he said this, he was shocked in his heart, could it be that there was really such an evil thing in this world? But when he thought that he himself had crossed over, what else was impossible?

Lu Shuowu spontaneously thought about things in a daze, but the rest of the people frowned, and the prince glanced around and said, "Since there is no danger inside, we might as well go in and check it out." ”

When Lu Shuo heard this, he suddenly came back to his senses from his thoughts, and said, "Don't, Your Highness, if it really has anything to do with southern Yunnan, let's be cautious, we might as well surround the mountain first and investigate from all around the mountain, so as not to have any accidents." ”

If the crown prince has an accident on his territory, even if it has nothing to do with him, I am afraid that Emperor Hui Chong's anger can burn him to the ground.

Besides, no matter what, the prince is also his friend, whether it is the prince or himself, he can't let go of the danger.
