Su Yirong hadn't seen Chen Liang all day, and he was alert and called Zhang Yang to inquire.

Zhang Yang didn't know where Chen Liang went, but he faintly felt that something was wrong from the conversation the day before, Chen Liang shouldn't have really done something stupid, right? The stakes were so high that he didn't dare to hide it, and told Su Yirong about the conversation with Chen Liang that day.

Su Yirong immediately had an ominous premonition, Chen Liang is a man with extraordinary skills, but he has one shortcoming, he doesn't like to act according to orders, he is a little good at making claims, and he is ruthless, if it weren't for the fact that this trip was really dangerous, and she couldn't find someone whose martial arts were stronger than Chen Liang, she really wouldn't have brought Chen Liang here.

Now hearing Zhang Yang say this, she immediately made a decision and asked Zhang Yang to quickly pack up and leave here first, lest something happen to Chen Liang and affect them.

There's nothing to clean up, this is where they temporarily stayed, and they planned to withdraw when the situation was not good, and the important things were packed, you can take them and leave, and the irrelevant ones will be forgotten first, and they will come back to clean up if they have nothing to do.

In this Yancheng, they temporarily prepared several places to stay, and some places were only known to Su Yirong, just to prevent any of them from making mistakes and confessing something after being caught.

When he arrived in another mansion, Su Yirong calmed down, and the second order was to order Zhang Yang to go around the Dingwang Mansion to see if anything happened to the Dingwang Mansion last night, but everything should be careful, don't deliberately inquire, you can only wander around the nearby teahouse and wine shop, it's best to hear what you can hear, and you can't ask if you can't hear it, they are fresh faces, and if you ask, your whereabouts may be exposed, attracting attention.

Zhang Yang wrote them down one by one. They are all trained, these do not need Su Yirong's orders, they will naturally do it, fortunately, Yancheng is the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there are many people coming and going from the south to the north, and the raw face does not arouse suspicion, if it is other smaller towns, they don't even dare to go to the teahouse and wine shop, and the raw face is the object of suspicion.

is also a bit of luck, dressed as Chen Liang, a small porcelain seller. I just sat down at an open-air tea stall. I heard someone talking about it.

A roe deer-headed mouse-eyed man excitedly said to the people around him in a mysterious tone, "Last night, someone on our street was robbed, and there was a lot of commotion. Looks like. It seems that there are still human lives. ”

The poor sour show next to him was a little disapproving. "Wang Si, are you talking nonsense again? Don't be the widow next door to your house stealing a man, and she was found yelling a few times. I live next door to you, why didn't I hear anything?"

Wang Si was swept away, and waved his hand impatiently, "Go, Li Er, you are a poor and sour talent, you sleep like a dead pig every night, snoring loudly, and you can't make noise when thunder, what can you hear? ”

"What do I think?" Li Er became angry and ashamed, "Who are you this widow Lu? You speak for her all day long, is there something unsightly about the two of you?"

"What did you say?" Wang Si immediately became angry, stood up and rolled up his cuffs and walked towards Li Er, "Do you have the courage to say another word?"

Li Er doesn't look thinner than Wang Si, but his reading personality is weaker, looking at Li Er's posture, he is a little scared, but there are so many people around, it's not good to show weakness too much, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and his voice was a little quieter, "Just talk, what are you weak in?"

"You still say?" Wang Si clenched his fists and stepped forward again, with the intention of swinging his fist.

The owner of the tea stall saw that the situation was not right, for fear that the two would really fight and smash his stall, so he came out to play a round and said, "Okay, okay, they are all neighbors on the left and right, you don't see you when you look up and look down, what's there to be noisy, Li Er, you just don't say a few words, a big man, don't open your mouth and shut up about women before you get married, Wang Si, you go on, which family was robbed, and did you catch anyone?"

They are all neighbors, Wang Si didn't really want to fight with Li Er, but he just scared him, and when he saw someone playing in the round, he got off the donkey, and opened the topic: "Actually, I don't know what kind of family it is, anyway, it's a big family, no one goes in and out on weekdays, and it doesn't interact with the neighbors around it. ”

"It's a pair of stone lions at the door. Someone next to him interjected and asked.

Wang Si nodded, "Which one is it?" ”

"That's the other courtyard of the Dingwang Mansion, you don't even know about it?" Li Er on the side couldn't help but proudly show off, these tea stalls were all mud legs, and he couldn't tell who was the big official and who was the rich man.

"There are so many nobles in Yancheng, what does it have to do with us, who has nothing to do with inquiring so carefully?" Wang Si just couldn't see that Li Er was too proud, and sneered, "That is, you Li Er dreams every day, so you pay attention to these, we ordinary people only know that they are nobles, and the cats and dogs at home can't be offended." ”

"So you're a clay-legged man for the rest of your life. Li Er's eyelids rolled and he sneered.

"Yes, I know that's the case in this life, what about you Li Er? What do you think you are? Do you still want to be an official? Wang Si said sarcastically, "If you can be an official like this, can we ordinary people still have a way to live?"

"Eh, eh, why are you arguing again, Wang Si, let's talk about your thief, everyone doesn't have the heart to listen to you two raise the pole. Seeing that the topic was about to be pulled away again, the owner of the tea stall hurriedly pulled the topic back for fear of another fight.

Wang Si glared at Li Er fiercely, and then continued: "That night, when I got up to go to the toilet, I heard some noise in the distance, and then the direction suddenly brightened up, and in the middle of the night, the third watch was afraid of which house to go to the water, so I went out to take a look, and I heard that there was a noise in the courtyard, and a bunch of guard-like people rushed out, holding torches and searching around, I was afraid of being treated as a thief, so I didn't dare to approach." ”

Speaking of this, Wang Si stopped.

The people around him were intrigued, and hurriedly asked, "Then what? ”

Wang Si spread his hands, "That's it." Then the movement became quieter, and I went home. ”

"That's it?" The people around were disappointed, Wang Si said mysteriously at the beginning, but after talking for a long time, it aroused their curiosity, and there was nothing else, which was really disappointing.

Li Er was as disappointed as everyone else, and couldn't help muttering: "I thought there was some thrilling process, and after talking for a long time, you guessed." Maybe people have lost their cats and dogs at home. That's why I went around looking for it, and you just said that the cats and dogs of the noble family are more expensive than others, and there are thieves there. This thought is a thief. So many rich merchants in the city don't steal. Running to the palace to steal? Can this palace be entered by ordinary people? Caught the original kill without hesitation. ”

Li Er's words made the people around him nod, as the saying goes, the poor do not fight with the rich, and the rich do not fight with the officials. This emperor's relatives are even more powerful than the official master, the world belongs to their family, can ordinary people afford to provoke it?

After that, everyone's discussion went towards all kinds of speculation.

When Zhang Yang heard this, he put down the two copper plates and left

Although what Wang Si heard was only a little bit, he could be sure that that that night, something did happen to the courtyard of the Dingwang Mansion, and combined with Chen Liang's disappearance, there was no doubt that Chen Liang who broke into the courtyard of the Dingwang Mansion at night.

The only thing that can't be determined is whether Chen Liang was caught, according to Wang Si's description, he should not have been caught at the beginning, and as for whether he was caught later, I don't know, but if he was not caught, where would Wang Si be now?

Chen Liang went back to report the news he heard to Su Yirong.

Su Yirong pondered for a while, and felt that Chen Liang should not have been caught, with Chen Liang's skills, as long as there was even a momentary chance to escape, he would not let people catch it again.

However, if he was not caught, why didn't he come back, there are two possibilities, one is that the people chasing behind him are keeping a close eye on him, and he can't get rid of it for a while, or he is not sure whether the other party deliberately let him escape, so he can hide first, and the other is that although Chen Liang escaped, it is very likely that he was injured and has no ability to come back.

If it is the former, they will not be able to do anything for a while, but if it is the latter, they must be searched, and they must be found, and they must see people alive and dead bodies.

Chen Liang knows too many things, he can't let him go outside, although this person is also trained, even if he is caught, he will not tell any secrets, but as long as he lives, he may be pried open.

Su Yirong is not completely sure about Chen Liang, in case Chen Liang is cornered, she is really not sure what she will do, especially Chen Liang dares to disobey her orders and make an initiative to assassinate Princess Ding, such a person will not have any absolute loyalty.

Chen Liang really shouldn't have been brought in at the beginning, if he is disobedient, no matter how good his skills are, he will only add to the chaos.

But the matter has come to this point, and it is useless to regret it, Su Yirong can only order people to hide their whereabouts as much as possible, and then slowly look for Chen Liang, as for other things, stop and talk about it first.

……

Dingwang's mansion

Green Vine couldn't help but fall into deep thought after carefully questioning Rosegrass about what had happened that night.

As she expected, the princess was really in danger, and it was obvious that this attack must be related to the group of people in the nunnery, maybe it was the killer sent by those people, otherwise it would not be so coincidental.

But that night, after the Assassin broke into the Princess's room, what happened to the Assassin? Who was the Assassin repelling? According to Rosegrass, she heard the movement and was the first to rush in, and saw the Princess standing in the room, the room was just a little messy, as if someone had accidentally knocked over something, not like there had been a fierce fight, that is, the Assassin should have been repelled by someone.

She has been with the princess for so long, and she has not seen any traces of the princess's martial arts, although some people will reach the realm of returning to the basics after practicing martial arts to the peak, no different from ordinary people, but she follows the princess, it can almost be said that she gets along day and night, no matter how much people can hide, it is impossible to hide martial arts all the time.

At most, the princess knows a little self-defense skills, ordinary ladies can't threaten her, as for anything else, it's really unlikely, the princess definitely doesn't look like a person with supreme martial arts

So who fought off the Assassins, and did the princess have a secret guard she didn't know about?

This is very likely, the prince has always been a cautious person, and perhaps he has left the princess with life-saving manpower.

"Sister, what are you thinking?" Seeing that Green Vine had not spoken for a long time, Luo Cao couldn't help but ask, it was not that she couldn't hold her breath, but that this matter was too big.

It was too bold for someone to assassinate the princess in the dark of night, and due to the negligence of the palace guards, they didn't even see the shadow of the assassin, and they didn't know whether the assassin was male or female.

Wait, Luo Cao suddenly thought of a possibility, but just thought about it, and shook her head again in a blink of an eye, this is too unbelievable and impossible.

At the same time as Luo Cao's thoughts rose, Green Vine also had the same thought in his heart, and said in a low voice: "You said that after you went in, you didn't see anyone at all, and there was no trace of fierce fighting in the house? ”

"Yes!" Luo Cao nodded, "I chased the guards outside, and I didn't see anyone." ”

"Then the princess didn't say anything?" asked Midori again, "I mean, the princess didn't say anything about the assassins afterwards, or blamed the guards for their bad protection?"

"No, the princess really didn't say anything. Luo Cao said, "Actually, I also asked the princess, the princess only asked me to retreat, she wanted to be quiet, the next day, I wanted to ask again, but the princess's expression was a little wrong, I didn't dare to ask too much, I thought that there was no light in the house that day, and the princess didn't see anything." ”

This is even more wrong, the doubts in Green Teng's heart deepened, that is to say, the only one who can prove that there is an assassin in the mansion is that scream, and the only one who really sees the assassin is the princess.

How is this possible, it stands to reason that the assassin should have been injured before he let out a scream, so that means that the assassin was injured, and if he was injured, how could there not be a trace of blood?

There is only one explanation for this, or there is no intrusion at all, and the whole thing may be that the princess is playing tricks alone, as for the purpose?

It is also easy to explain, the princess sensed the danger and felt that someone would attack her, so she made up such a play herself, it is easy to pretend to be a person's scream, and the princess herself made this scream, making people think that there was an assassin breaking in, the purpose is to warn some people with ill intentions, so that people think that there must be masters around the princess to guard in the dark, and ask those people not to act rashly.

If this is the case, the princess's approach is wonderful, but it cannot be used forever. (To be continued......)
