He didn't even dare to go to Zhongcui Palace to see Lu Minglan now, he didn't dare to listen to her cry, he didn't dare to look at her eyes.

She was originally a strong woman, and she had been in Biling Palace with him for so many years, except for the time when the Lu family was in trouble, she had never collapsed to the point of crying, nor had she been so fragile, so that he often felt that there was an indomitable vine hidden in her petite body, and she would always be so flexible and strong.

"Your Majesty."

Wu Yi walked up to him lightly and called him in an equally soft voice.

He looked up after a moment, wordless at him.

Wu Yi pursed his lips and lowered his head and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has returned from the Xiao family, Han Ji is not there, and then his wife said that if His Royal Highness King Yan is missing, it has nothing to do with them, and he cannot bear the emperor's responsibility." Therefore, they refused to accept the order. ”

Zhao Jun looked at him, and his decadent gaze gradually became sharp, "It's okay? ”

Wu Yi bowed his head, "That's what she said. ”

Zhao Jun looked out the window, laughed, stood up, and walked in front of him, "King Yan is looking for Mei Niang, Mei Niang lives in their house, I have already asked you to remind him that there is an ambush nearby, but he hasn't dealt with it for so long, causing King Yan to be in danger outside his mansion, which has nothing to do with them?!"

"King Yan is the heir of the Great Zhou, and he is the only one, even if he is a commoner, the Son of Heaven decrees that he will participate, and he can't help but participate! He dares to say that he has nothing to do with him? Dare to say that you don't obey the order?! Could it be that they still hold a grudge because I picked up his officials?! ”

Wu Yi didn't know what to say, he felt that maybe there was a little bit of such a reason. But Zhao Jun himself is not right, since he is already a commoner, and he has indeed never seen Jing Luo, he also entered the palace immediately after having a clue, which already shows that he has no prejudice against Zhao Jun, even if he has, he will not ignore a child because of this.

Zhao Jun's decree was too impulsive.

"But even if they don't accept the order, the ministers will hear about it, and Han Ji will still keep tracking it down with Gu Song and others in the city, and now several Guogong mansions have received the news. They all acted immediately. Lord Shen, Xianzhong, and the officials of the six ministries were all paying close attention to the movements in the South Third Institute. Once there is a situation, he will enter the palace to report to the emperor. ”

Zhao Jun stood on the dan, and the false fire in his heart went down softly.

Why is it said to be a false fire, it is because he himself knows that the good under this decree is unreasonable. But he was angry with Han Ji in his heart, and he was angry that he had done everything in the world. As a result, he was driven out of the court, and he still had to do things well. Kicked out by him. Should he be resentful, frustrated, and spread his grievances?

But he didn't, but he took the initiative to inform Jingluo's whereabouts. He knows that sometimes he is too good at being a man. It will also drive people to nowhere to run?

He admits that he was distracted.

"Let's go down." He turned.

Most of the people in the capital went home at night to eat and turn off the lights and sleep as usual, but in the middle of the night, many people were awakened by the sound of footsteps on the street, in addition to the sound of knocking on the door from door to door, and the sound of loud announcements to enter the hospital to search. All in all, I was shocked again this night.

Han Ji drove on the red electricity, raised his eyes to look at the busy officers and soldiers around, and shook his head almost invisibly.

Gu Song turned his head to look at it and said, "The Jingshi is so big, and he searches from house to house, and he has to find the Year of the Monkey and the month of the Monkey?" I'm afraid I'll have to find a way to force them out. ”

Han Ji put down his hand pinching his chin and said, "What about Xue Zhu?" Let people pass the word to them, and go to the big locust tree under the Hui'an Temple in front to talk. ”

Xue stopped Dong and they were also patrolling, and immediately rushed to Hui'an Temple after receiving the message.

Han Ji was already standing with his chest crossed under the big locust tree. Seeing them approaching, before they could say hello, he asked, "Have you found any clues?" ”

Xue stopped and said: "We just met with Tao Xing Luoshen, and they saw that the direction of the robbers' escape was the southeast of Guang'an Street, and we sent someone to search from Mingyufang to Guang'an Road, but there was no result. At that time, it was getting dark, and the people on the road didn't pay much attention to it even if they saw it, but Tao Xing and the others followed the road closely for a while, and they were sure that they finally disappeared in the area of Beicheng near Haizi. ”

Han Ji nodded, "Anything else?" ”

Dong slowly thought for a while, "When you talk about Beicheng, I think of one thing. In the area that Tao Xing was referring to, I knew that King Zheng had a place where he happened to be, and it was rumored to be haunted a few months ago. ”

"King Zheng?" Han Ji's eyes flashed, and he looked at him fixedly.

"That's right." Dong said slowly: "When King Zheng just moved out of the palace, in order to win me over, he once invited me to his private house for a cup of tea, where he also gave me two pots of eighteen Arhats. I'm afraid not many people know about that house. ”

Gu Song said: "You mean, the person who robbed King Yan will be King Zheng?" But isn't King Zheng dead? ”

"Death can also be faked." Xue stopped looking at him, "Many people on the battlefield escaped death, often relying on disguise to deceive the other party. ”

"But the person was killed by Uncle Luo, and the body was also transported back, and no one felt that anything was wrong." Gu Song still couldn't believe it, King Zheng's corpse was seen by so many people, how could it be fake?

Xue Zhidong looked at each other slowly, and didn't say anything more.

In fact, this is just their speculation, and it is not certain that it is King Zheng. After all, it is still quite difficult to escape death under the pursuit of so many people. They prefer to believe that it was the work of Prince Lu or King Liao.

"Who lives in King Zheng's house now?" Just when everyone had already given up this idea, Han Ji suddenly asked again.

Dong paused slowly and said: "That house is in the Four Seasons Hutong near Haizi in Beicheng, and that Hutong is some distance from the inner city because it is close to Jishuitan, so it is all other people's private houses. After Empress Duanjing was killed, although all the private property under King Zheng's name was recovered, no one has ever lived in it. ”

Han Ji frowned and paused, and called He Qun: "Go and check the Four Seasons Hutong immediately." He also said: "Chuan Tao Xing and all the other guards will return to the courtyard, and you will follow me when you turn around." ”

He Qun first said yes, and then paused slightly: "There are already guards sent by the grandfather of the country in the house, and Meiniang-"

"Don't talk so much, just do what I say."

He Qun bowed his head and went immediately.

Gu Song and the others looked at each other here and said, "Uncle Ji doesn't have any ideas?" ”

Han Ji held the long sword at his waist and said, "No matter who the other party is, whether it is King Zheng or not, such a search is the most ineffective way right now." They originally had two purposes, one was King Yan, and the other was me, so I could use me as bait to lure them out right now. ”

"How can this work?!" Dong Slow was the first to object, "No wonder you just want to send Tao Xing and them back, are you deliberately exposing the empty door for the other party to attack?" The price is too high to be had! ”

"If you want to solve the case as soon as possible, you can only take risks." Han Ji glanced at them and said, "Listen to me, after we disperse here, pretend to go to the east, west, north and south respectively, I will take two people to the north city casually, and then you will secretly ambush around me, and wait for them to appear, and take it in one fell swoop." ”

"But I'm afraid they won't be so easily fooled." Gu Song said, "They have already obtained the Yan King, and we have dispatched so many soldiers and horses tonight, as long as they lurk well, it is enough to attack you at all." ”

"But his ultimate goal is not to kill people, nor to rob money." Han Ji said, "If I expected it right, he was trying to stir up the muddy waters of the imperial court, if his appetite was only as small as winning King Yan, then what did he do to stare at me for so long?" At the moment, the emperor does not have any power in his hands, and the court is still supported by the ministers, and it may be difficult for him to achieve any purpose just by holding King Yan.

Judging by the caution with which he acted, it was not possible that he had acted on a whim, but that he had a very good premeditation.

"Since this is the case, he must know the estrangement between the emperor and me, and also knows what kind of predicament the emperor is facing now, if I die, first of all, maybe the emperor's predicament will be solved, and then think about it deeply, they have removed me, and may cause many unexpected contradictions.

"For example, the Han family may attack the emperor because of my death and injury, blaming all this for the emperor cutting my official, and the Shen family will not give up, in addition to the Hua family. In this way, the court will be chaotic again, and some people in the court may not be able to hold back and want to come to the troubled times to dominate, or the leader behind this group of killers will choose to come by himself.

"In short, taking the opportunity to seize power and get this throne is probably the real purpose of what he wants to do."

Gu Song heard him say this, and he couldn't help but nod.

can stare at Jing Luo, who is of great significance, and Han Ji, the only heir of the Xiao family, of course, the appetite of the people behind this will not be small.

"However, if the other party is really King Zheng, then, in his situation, it is impossible for him to have the strength to get the throne even if he is not dead, and he may even give away his life, will he do this?" Dong slowly hugged his chest and said.

"If it's really King Zheng," Han Ji said here and paused, "then I'm afraid they're here to seek revenge." ”

Gu Song and several people suddenly stared.

Revenge? Yes, if the other party is really King Zheng who has come back from the dead, he is even targeting Jingluo and Han Ji together, what is it if it is not revenge!

He will resent Han Ji for taking Zhao Jun out of the palace to occupy the throne, and even more resentful for him concealing the identity of King Chen to subvert the court, and what he hates most is probably that he and Wei Guogong sent people to hunt him down! He has no ability to move in the Wei Mansion, and now Han Ji has become a commoner, and there are only Tao Xing and the twelve of them around him to protect him, if he is not found at this time, how long will he wait?

But if it's really him, then there won't be many people around him, most of the people around him have died when he fled, and there are no more than a dozen people left around, even if he takes him in on the way, there won't be a few more of them. So if we can be sure that it's him, we are a little more sure. Xue stopped. (To be continued......)
