Sima Liancheng's face was also like Cao Wen and Qi Liangchen at this time, as black as the bottom of the pot.

There are too many facts that have happened in the Eastern Capital this year, and countless ghosts, demons and monsters are scrambling to jump out, making him tired.

"Farewell, my subordinates have found out the source of this demonic arrow—"

This sentence made the two people present obviously lift their spirits, but Sima Liancheng's next words made their mood return to the bottom.

"As your lord expected, these arrows were found by the humble position, but they flowed out of the arsenal of the right tun guard two years ago, and were collected by the black wolf Jia Quan. But the black wolf had died in a stinky ditch in the east of the city a year ago. So in the end, we don't have a clue who these arrows will go to. ”

"These beetles!"

Qi Liangchen couldn't help but scold: "It seems that the swift wind arrow and the burst arrow are the most important weapons of the country, and they dare to sell them secretly, so they are not afraid of the law of the country?"

Cao Wen pursed his lips tightly, and his eyes were extremely gloomy. He heard that Qi Liangchen had the intention of scolding Huai, alluding to Lin Guang's evasion of the city gate tax, but now he really didn't have the heart to pay attention to this.

"In addition, the humble also went to ask the 'God Operator' in the black market and several other intelligence agents, but in the past few days, no one has tried to find out Lin Guang's whereabouts, and there is no clue about the person seven days ago for the time being. However, in addition to this, there are several others, including Fengqi Tower, which may require you to come forward in person. ”

Sima Liancheng's voice was slightly depressed.

After Xue Chengde's death, Xiuyiwei traced the news that someone had purchased this eunuch from Fan Ming, an intelligence dealer in the black market, seven days ago.

It's a pity that the person covered his appearance and figure tightly, and the 'god operator' didn't particularly care, so the embroidered guard didn't know the identity of this person for the time being.

Sima Liancheng originally thought that this time on the black market, there would definitely be some gains, after all, judging from the scene, this was obviously a long-planned ambush. The other party knew that Lin Guang would appear here, so he could choose the location and angle of the sniper in advance.

However, in the Eastern Capital, although there are countless people who rely on selling information and intelligence for their livelihood, the number of people who can detect Lin Guang's specific whereabouts is extremely limited, and there is also a large force behind them to rely on.

In Sima Liancheng's mind, as long as this person got the flaws from these families, there would definitely be traces to be found, but the result made him quite disappointed.

"There is no need to ask these families in Fengqilou, after Xue Chengde died, Cao Mou greeted them. Once there is any trouble, I will definitely inform my Qi Mansion as soon as possible. ”

Cao Wen's expression was cold: "General Sima Lang, you just need to tell me, have you found any traces of the assassin this time?"

When Sima Liancheng heard this, he first glanced at Qi Liangchen, and when he saw that the latter signaled that it was okay, he shook his head and replied: "At the time of the incident, the lowly post had already mobilized the embroidered guards and the left and right Wuhou guards and horses, blocked the surrounding twenty miles, nearly thirty square areas, and investigated along the side of the city wall with elites, but there is still no gain. Only not long ago, a group of forbidden soldiers patrolling the city said that when they were patrolling the city walls, they all heard a strange noise. The sound was extremely faint and faint, not like a bowstring moving. However, the lower official had taken them to confirm the location, and found that this strange sound coincided with the origin of the arrow at first."

"Speaking of the city wall, this arrow did come from the east city wall, eleven miles away, this person has a strong prediction, and he is extremely confident,"

Qi Liangchen thoughtfully: "But this doesn't make sense, there is a flat river on the city wall, and there is nowhere to hide." Aren't they aware of such a big ink armor?"

"Indeed, they are unaware!"

After Sima Liancheng finished saying this, he noticed Cao Wen's slightly questioning gaze, his face suddenly turned blue, and his voice suddenly condensed: "There is no need for these forbidden soldiers to lie, and they dare not deceive. We embroidered clothes and guards will not even be able to distinguish between the truth and the false. ”

"In other words, this ink armor still has a strong ability to conceal?"

Qi Liangchen didn't pay attention to Cao Wen's expression at all, and muttered to himself: "This category of king-level battle armor should not exceed fifteen, I don't know which one of them?"

It's a pity that they have too little information, and they only know that this armor should be specialized in archery, but they don't know what specific combat skills they have, what their strength is, and what their speed is, so he can't actually analyze what is the reason now.

What's more, since the two Han Dynasty, there have been no less than 1,000 king-level armors cast in successive dynasties, many of which are not recorded in the annals of history. Even if they embroidered the clothes and guards, they didn't dare to say that they could master all the information of the king-level battle armor.

"You help me tell Henan Juncheng, if you really can't find it, then lift the lockdown as soon as possible, don't disturb the people in the city too much. So that our brothers who embroider clothes, and the men and horses of Wuhou Wei on the left and right, can sleep well today-"

"How can Qi Beijia be so sloppy?"

Cao Wen didn't wait for Qi Liangchen to finish speaking, but Shi thick eyebrows were raised: "The culprit is on the run, at this time, the whole city should be searched, and this punishment will be punished!"

"How can it be sloppy?"

Qi Liangchen shook his head disdainfully: "If the whole city is searched, there will be results? Isn't this self-deception." Brother Cao, doesn't he think that the man will stop there? At this time, let's use up all our strength, what will we do if this murderer appears again in the future? I will just embroider the clothes and guards, and those soldiers of the forbidden army who are left and right Wuhou Wei will run around all night for the affairs of your family, how can they not complain?"

Cao Wen was stunned when he heard this, and then snorted coldly: "This is to eliminate the evil for the country! This is their business, who dares to complain?"

But although he said this, he no longer reasoned with Qi Liangchen, but went downstairs directly: "Okay! ”

"Then by the way, please inform King Qi if you can make a list of his close courtiers and subordinates to me? ”

Qi Liangchen paused when he saw Cao Wen's footsteps, and then continued to go downstairs, and couldn't help but slightly raise the corners of his lips. And then he looked at Sima Liancheng with a fixed expression: "There is one more thing, let me find out how many demonic arrows flowed out of his hands in the year before the death of the black wolf Jia Quan, and what types of arrows were involved." It would be nice if he could find out who he had. ”

"The first target, Xue Chengde, is to cut off the King of Qi's aid in the palace, and the second target is to cut off part of the wealth of the Qi Palace, so who is the third target?"

After returning to Li Shimin's courtyard, Zhang Yurou opened a pair of big eyes and looked at the owner of this courtyard with expectation.

"I suggest that Gongzi can attack Qin Kerou, the owner of the Cloud Building, this Qinglou is not only another source of wealth for Yang Jun, but also one of the most important eyes and ears of the Qi Palace, if you can shoot her, Yang Jun is equivalent to half a deaf and blind man, much easier to deal with. ”

"Qin Ruo?"

Luo Li shook his head obviously disapprenously: "I advise the Lord, it is better to consider it solemnly." I have seen this woman, her strength is unfathomable, and there are many good players in the Cloud Tower. Even if I want to do something to her, I need to be cautious and cautious. In addition, now, the many wings under the command of King Naqi must be on guard, and you will not have a chance, Lord. Even if you want to do it, it should be after you have adjusted this god's blood eye and really controlled it. ”

Zhang Yurou smiled "hey": "Of course I know Qin Kerou's strength, it's not something that a son can handle, but if you add this?"

As she spoke, she slapped a purple-gold jade talisman on the table in front of her.

Li Shimin next to him only glanced at it, and his pupils contracted.

This seems to be, the legendary Hou Yi rune?

Luo Li's face was also very dignified.

"If it were an ordinary situation, it would be difficult for Childe to shoot this woman, but if this talisman was added, he would definitely be able to take her life. ”

Zhang Yurou looked at Li Shimin with anticipation: "If you want to do it, then within two days at most, I can find out her next whereabouts." ”

Li Shimin looked at Zhang Yurou thoughtfully: "As far as I know, this Qin Kerou is not only the master of the Cloud Building, but also the deputy leader of the Twelve Chains Dock?"

The Twelve Docks are a newly emerging gang consisting of twelve water villages located near the Tongji Canal and the Yongji Canal.

And the purpose of these water villages is to counter Zhang Zhongjian's Qinglong Villa and control the illegal salt channels around the canal.

So strictly speaking, this Qin Kerou is not actually a subordinate of King Qi, but just a refuge in the latter and borrow his power.

"So what?"

Zhang Yurou looked at Li Shimin with confidence: "The Twelve Lianwu is indeed my father's competitor, but this is also the largest human trafficker in Hebei and Shandong, Qin Kerou can provide more than one million yuan for the King of Qi every month, but I don't know how many people's blood is stained in this money? In the past few years, how many families have been separated by the wives of the Twelve Lianwu, and how many women have had to fall into the dust and become prostitutes? Not to mention Gongzi, isn't your current plan just to put everyone under the command of King Qi in danger? So a top master like Qin Kerou is not the most suitable person for the person who comes to Liwei?"

Li Shimin couldn't help but be moved when he heard this, but after thinking for a while, he still shook his head slightly: "Let's discuss this matter again, let me think about it for a while." ”

After that, he didn't wait for Zhang Yurou to persuade again, so he stood up from his long body: "Tomorrow I have to enter the palace to cancel my leave on duty, so this assassination operation has to be suspended for two days." ”

Zhang Yurou was stunned at first, and then she sensibly swallowed all the words that came to her mouth.

Li Shimin's return to the palace for duty, she had expected it, and she knew that this matter was imperative. And no matter how you look at it, it's a good thing.

Especially for their private salt business in Guanzhong, a son in law of a family with a bright future, a thousand cattle and a thousand cows, and a guy who has resigned from his official position, the weight is completely different.
