In the quiet alley, Jiang Li looked ahead. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Ahead, there was no one, only a blurry night.

"Whoosh" a few times, there was a sound of rapid leaping behind him, and in a moment, several figures fell on Jiang Li's side, it was Fang Nuo and Xingsheng Ankang who were chasing after him.

"Brother, what's going on?"

"There's a sister's whereabouts."

"What?"

"Arnold, you take Changxing and them to the outside of the Fifth Prince's Mansion to investigate first, I'll go to Liu Rui, remember, before I go, you must not act rashly."

Without waiting for Fang Nuo to ask again, Jiang Li had already picked up his light skills and rushed out of the alley, and soon disappeared into the night.

In the Four Princes' Mansion, in the pavilion in the garden, Liu Rui stood with his hands behind his back, and the candle flame in the pavilion reflected his side face, which was so lonely and haggard.

It's been six days, and the righteous brother still hasn't heard from him, as if he has disappeared from this world, and despite their best efforts, they haven't found any useful information, including the assassin that day.

The assassins of that day, under Shu Jiaqi's unremitting pursuit, found traces in Xishan outside the city two days later, but when they found them, they were just a pile of corpses gnawed beyond recognition by wild beasts, and they could only distinguish from the remaining clothes that it should be the assassin who carried out the assassination.

The clues were interrupted, and it was impossible to find out who was behind the scenes, let alone find Liu Qin.

Everyone turned their suspicious eyes on the third prince Liu Zhi, as far as this matter is concerned, Liu Zhi and the Jin family are the most likely to make a move, but there is no evidence, and no one dares to talk nonsense about things without evidence.

I remembered that I had gone to the mansion of the Third Emperor Brother at night with Jiang Li to secretly investigate several times, and the guards in the mansion were very strict, and once they had already alarmed the secret guards, but even so, they didn't find any clues.

"Alas......"

Liu Rui sighed lightly, it would be good if the imperial brother was here, the imperial brother would definitely have a way. Liu Rui didn't know that in his heart, Liu Sheng was his backbone, if Liu Sheng was by his side, he would be inexplicably at ease, and he would blindly believe that everything would be in the hands of his imperial brother.

"Your Highness, be careful."

There was an exclamation, followed by the sound of swords clashing. Liu Rui realized that when he was stunned, someone broke through several guards in the mansion, and actually came to him and fought with Xu Zhao and others who were hidden in the shadows around him.

"It's me, Jiang Li."

The man fought back and whispered.

"It turned out to be Jiang Gongzi." Xu Zhao waved his hand at the other two secret guards, and after they retreated, he bowed his hand towards Jiang Li, "Your Highness is in the pavilion, Jiang Gongzi, please." ”

Xu Zhao didn't ask much about Jiang Li's intentions, so late, and trespassing into the mansion without being reported, Xu Zhao's not particularly smart head knew that the matter was urgent, and this matter must be related to Xiao Gongzi.

Although they don't have much contact with Liu Qin, Liu Rui's subordinates respect Liu Qin very much, and they all know the status of the master's righteous brother in the master's heart, so when they learned that Liu Qin was taken captive, Wei Zheng, Xu Zhao and others were all trying their best to search around, and when they saw that Liu Rui's tea was full of anxiety, they also secretly felt sorry for their master.

Liu Rui came out early, and before he could speak in a hurry, Jiang Li glanced at the lonely pavilion and said in a low voice, "Go there and talk." ”

This pavilion entitled "Leisurely" is Liu Rui's favorite place, surrounded by open space and a wide field of vision, which is the most pleasant place to cool off on summer nights.

Entering the pavilion, Jiang Li looked around, because the field of vision was wide, anyone who appeared ten zhang away would immediately enter the eye, so he was not afraid of being listened to by someone.

Jiang Li let go of the right hand that he had been holding tightly, and handed the note in his hand to Liu Rui, Liu Rui hurriedly swept it, his face changed greatly, "How could it be ......?"

Jiang Li didn't speak, but Liu Rui already understood Jiang Li's determination, whether it was true or not, he would definitely go for a trip. Liu Rui was shocked, but for some reason he believed that the words on the paper were not false, because now in the imperial capital, there are only five emperor brothers who can make people disappear quietly.

No longer hesitated, summoned Wei Zheng and Xu Zhao and other eight personal guards, and quickly rushed to the Five Princes' Mansion with Jiang Li.

Fang Nuo and the others were in a hurry outside the Five Princes' Mansion, and finally waited for Jiang Li and Liu Rui. On the way here, Jiang Li and Liu Rui had already communicated briefly, made a simple plan, and met Fang Nuo, Jiang Li didn't have time to say more, just let them follow their own opportunities.

A group of fifteen people avoided the gate, found a weakly guarded courtyard wall, climbed into the mansion of the five princes, avoided many secret sentinels, and finally gradually approached the outer study, but at this time, it finally alarmed the guards in the mansion.

The bright and dark guards rushed out and surrounded their group, but in fact, only Fang Nuo and the others and six Liu Rui's guards were surrounded, and Jiang Li, Liu Rui, Wei Zheng and Xu Zhao had already taken advantage of the chaos to sneak near the outer study.

The door of the study creaked open, and Liu Jing stood at the door, and in front of him, several guards rushed out of the darkness vigilantly guarding him.

"What happened?"

Hearing Liu Jing's question, one of the guards reported: "Your Highness, there are assassins breaking into the mansion, Your Highness can rest assured, your subordinates are making every effort to arrest them, and they will not let the petty people disturb Your Highness." ”

Liu Jing's face changed, but he didn't say anything, he couldn't help sneering in his heart, although his mansion was not as good as the palace, it was also heavily guarded, not just any cat or dog could break in, those who didn't know whether they were alive or dead would definitely regret their actions tonight, and even more regret coming to this world.

"Keep your mouth alive." I gave the order, turned around and left, and ignored it again.

"Wait." With a shout, four people walked in from outside the courtyard, and the current person smiled slightly, "Fifth brother, it's me." ”

Liu Jing froze when he heard the sound, turned around, and saw the face of the person who spoke clearly by the light in the room, and his face was as black as the bottom of a pot, "What is the purpose of the fourth emperor brother breaking into the imperial brother's mansion at night?" ”

"Nature is a matter of urgency." Liu Rui didn't take his black face seriously, and walked in front of Liu Jing as he spoke, "Fifth brother, don't you invite your brother to come in and sit?" ”

Liu Jing's eyes fell on Jiang Li, who was following Liu Rui, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, why did he come here, could it be ...... Thinking about it again, the events of the day were very secret, except for a few cronies around him, only Pan Xianxian knew, as for the two little guys who served tea and water, they were poisoned and dumb by themselves, and they didn't know how to read, so they would never disclose the news to the outside world.

Thinking about it like this, my heart settled down, and my dissatisfaction with Liu Rui came to my heart again, but he was just a waste, and he dared to act on his own head, I really don't know what to do. His face sank, and he was about to have a seizure, but Liu Jing was used to pretending to be used to it on weekdays after all, so he quickly came back to his senses, suppressed the anger in his stomach, and said with a fake smile: "The person who came is a guest, how dare the imperial brother slack off, the fourth imperial brother please." ”

He turned back to a guard beside him and said, "Ding Yuan, let them stop and take them to the front hall for tea." ”

The person named Ding Yuan took the order and left, and after a while, the sound of swords intersecting outside gradually stopped, and the Five Princes' Mansion fell into silence again. (To be continued.) )
