398: Burning Mountain
Besides, after the prince and Liu Guang and others entered the mansion all the way, they did not search left and right, and went straight to the backyard, but they sent five or six guards to them, ordering them to search around, and not let anyone go. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
And when the prince and the others arrived in the backyard, they only found three women with good faces, and they looked like hostesses.
The prince's face darkened: "What about your lord?" ”
There was a woman who was a little bolder, and her nose trembled: "Back...... There is a secret passage in the back study, and the old man has already run away. ”
The woman in the long green dress on the side pulled her lightly: "Are you crazy? ”
The woman who spoke first fell to her knees with a thud, almost at the feet of the prince.
Liu Guangtong was afraid that she had some intentions, so he hurriedly fell down and kicked her.
The woman fell to the ground in pain.
The prince didn't have time to stop it, and narrowed his eyes: "Do you have anything to say?" ”
The woman was in terrible pain, and she hesitated for a long time: "We don't know anything, can this adult let us go?" ”
The prince thought for a while, nodded, and ordered the guards behind him to take care of the three women first.
The women were quickly taken down, and the prince looked around the room before going out and into the back study.
When the door of the study was pushed open, the prince felt a cool breeze, so he subconsciously frowned.
There is really a secret passage in this study, and the door of the secret passage has not been closed at this time, thinking that Meng Chao was too hasty when he escaped, and he didn't have time to do these finishing things.
The prince frowned and looked at Liu Guangtong: "He ran away." ”
But he never thought that Liu Guangtong smiled at the corner of his mouth.
The prince frowned when he saw it: "What are you laughing at?" ”
"The minion is afraid that he won't run."
The prince was stunned for a moment, and then immediately understood: "You made arrangements?" ”
Liu Guangtong replied: "Meng Chao is an old fox, and there is more than this secret passage in his mansion." Before we entered the mountain, the slave arranged for someone to inform the general soldiers of Yangzhou that this green mountain should be surrounded by groups now, as long as he ran out, he would be taken down, unless he ran deep into the mountains. ”
The prince raised his eyebrows, and his attitude towards this matter was a little unclear: "You have a good calculation. ”
Liu Guangtong sighed in his heart: "The slave is not greedy for merit, he has worked with Meng Chao for many years, and he knows his temperament and ways of doing things. If it weren't for him, all this would have been in vain. But if it were him, this arrangement would be very necessary. ”
The prince did not bother with him.
If Liu Guangtong wanted to be greedy for this credit, he would not lead him to Qingmao Mountain.
It's just the Meng Dynasty......
The prince looked around, and I have to say that the arrangement here is enough pomp.
Even though no one would visit on weekdays, the Meng Dynasty still arranged this place so luxuriously.
Cao Yin's lady picture, Zheng Banqiao's shrimp, Song Dynasty's Ru kiln's bowl, Dingyao's bottle, and the rare golden silk nanmu in the South China Sea......
"What will happen to him if he runs into the mountains?"
Liu Guangtong nodded his fingers and tilted his head to think for a while: "Forgive the slave for being disrespectful, and ask His Highness, if it is His Highness, will he run into the deep mountains?" ”
The prince shook his head without thinking, but then sighed twice: "Not necessarily. If you say that you have worked with him for many years and know his methods, then he must also know your methods. The secret of Qingmang Mountain was exposed, Dai Rong couldn't be relied on, and ran out of the mountain, and as soon as we cast a net and waited for him to pounce in. At this time, running into the mountains has a chance to survive. ”
Liu Guangtong touched his chin, and he didn't deny it, but just changed the conversation: "What kind of work can you take?" Although Meng Chao's kung fu is good, he can't eat rabbits all day long, right? There are really fierce beasts in this mountain, and if he encounters jackals, tigers and leopards, he will become the mouth of this group of beasts. ”
The prince didn't argue with him, but just took the inkstone on the table and looked at it carefully: "Dai Rong also searched for people's fat and people's ointment, such an old pit inkstone, and the workmanship is so fine, I'm afraid I won't be able to get a few parties a year." Liu Neichen," the crown prince rubbed the edge of the inkstone for a while, and then put it back, "If you have such a mansion, will you want to live?" ”
Liu Guangtong obviously paused.
The prince didn't force him to reply, and said to himself: "So I'm not arguing with you, where will he run." Rather, I am asking you, what if he really ran into the mountains and compared his patience with me? You know, he's a dead man, and I'm really afraid I can't fight him. ”
Liu Guang sank with one heart and was speechless for a while.
It was expected that he failed to catch Meng Chao, but he couldn't be let run anymore, this time in Qingmang Mountain, he must be cut down.
This time it alarmed him, if he let the tiger return to the mountain again, he would only act more cautiously in the future, and it would be more difficult to find the hidden treasure.
His Majesty got the news and sent himself to Jiangnan, but he asked Meng Chao to run away......
Liu Guangtong was full of excitement, but he was afraid that he would not have to return to Beijing.
"Burn the mountain."
The prince didn't seem to react: "What? ”
Liu Guangtong's eyes burned: "Three days, if you can't catch Meng Chao within three days, you will burn the mountain!" ”
The prince was shocked.
Burn the mountain......
"Once the mountain is set on fire, it will stretch for nearly ten miles, and if the fire spreads, although it will not hurt the people in the city, it will definitely alarm the people," the prince gritted his teeth and shook his head, "This is not a good idea." ”
Liu Guangtong's mind turned very quickly, and his eyes fell on the square inkstone on the table.
He stepped forward a few steps and held the inkstone in his hand: "Your Highness, is there such a thing in the palace?" ”
The prince sighed: "You came to ask me?" ”
Liu Guangtong naturally didn't need to ask him, so he continued: "There is no shortage of Duan inkstones in the old pit in the palace, but there are not many of them. Every year there is such a good inkstone in Duanzhou, and most of them are paid tribute to the palace, how can there be here? We know that this is looted, but the people don't know! ”
The prince looked at the inkstone in his hand, and then at his face: "You go on." ”
"The tragedy that happened in Qingmang Mountain back then, the people in the city thought it was a ghost, if we really want to set fire to the mountain this time, we don't have to be afraid of leaking the affairs of the Meng Dynasty. He only said that there was an evil thing here, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had dragon qi to protect his body, and this time he entered the mountain and injured the beast, and he was angry and set fire to the mountain, wanting to escape. Wouldn't that be the best of both worlds? Liu Guang paused the same word and said it very seriously.
The prince fell silent.
What Liu Guangtong said is indeed a good way.
If Meng Chao really ran into the mountains, as long as he burned the mountains, he would not be able to live, and he would either wait for death in the mountains or run out.
All they have to do is wait for the rabbit.
