Wuzhen is only a day's trip from Baicheng, so on the evening of the second day, wanted notices for night fires were plastered all over the streets and alleys of Wuzhen.

Because of the protection of Wuhua Palace, several people are safe for the time being.

"Why don't you drive this inn to White City?"

In the evening, several people sat between the tables, and Ziyi poked Duanmu Kaoru's elbow and asked.

"Heh-Wuhua Palace has always been taken care of by Qi, and I don't know the specifics." Duanmu Kaoru spread his hands, carefully shaved a piece of fish meat, and put it in the bowl of purple clothes.

"This White City is not as simple as it seems. It is not particularly far from the capital, but because of its proximity to the coast and close trade with foreign countries, many foreign envoys live here, so the jurisdiction is more relaxed. As far as I know, in addition to the Gu member and his forces, there is another person in the rich land of Baicheng, but this person's whereabouts are secretive, and he doesn't know who the person behind the scenes is. I only know that the force is called 'Yan'. ”

Yehuo raised his head, looked at Duanmu Xun, lowered his head again, and slowly fiddled with the food in the bowl and continued: "These two forces have almost mastered most of the business in the White City, and the foreign forces can hardly stop in the White City anymore. ”

"You dare to provoke such an earth overlord!" Ziyi pursed her lips.

Hearing Ziyi's words, Yehuo's face immediately fell, and he said aggrievedly with a crying and mournful look: "Grandma, I said it all, it's really not my fault!" ”

And at this time, the White City.

The luxurious restaurant is empty.

Only voices could be heard from the private rooms on the second floor.

Gu Yuanwai clapped his hands on the table, blew the two mustaches on his lips, and said, "Damn! Why did you let people run away! Master, you see, what are we going to do next? ”

"Hmph, I'm afraid that their group of rats are hiding at this time. Gao Yu is dead, and we have no way of knowing what the man who hijacked the prisoner's car looked like, but rest assured, the man will be back obediently in a few days. ”

The man who was called "master" by Gu Yuanwai looked like he was only in his twenties, and there was evil intent in his eyes. The black hair is pulled up high, and the red clothes are gorgeous.

He played with the teacup in his hand, held the teacup in the palm of his hand, and suddenly with force, the teacup turned into ashes in the palm of his hand in an instant.

"The master is really a master!" Seeing this, the Gu Yuanwai secretly wiped his sweat.

He just wanted to find out which daring person had cuckolded him! I didn't expect to provoke such a plague god who is not easy to mess with.

The so-called invitation to God is easy and difficult to send God.

In fact, he didn't want to continue to investigate in his heart.

But he did not dare to openly disobey the meaning of this "master".

That Gao Yu is just a gangster, just a guise to swagger through the market, and the treasures in his hand are all given by the man in the house at this time.

This Gu is not a fool.

Gao Yu's death was most likely also committed by the man in front of him. If those individuals wanted to kill Gao Yu, they didn't have to bother to take him to the woods.

"Master, the magistrate is here." The little guy outside the door respectfully reported, and Gu Yuanwai hurriedly stood up and went out of the house to greet him.

"How's it going, uncle, what's the news?"

This Gu Yuanwai's uncle, surnamed Lou, is the magistrate of Baicheng, who looks like he is in his forties, and has the same mustache as Gu Yuanwai, and his fat belly trembles when he walks, and at a glance, he knows that he has also made a lot of oil and water over the years.

"Hmph, the notice has been posted! According to their speed, the farthest is to Wuzhen! I've ordered all nearby cities to be sealed off! I don't think they can escape! It was only a matter of time before this group of people was caught. ”

The magistrate of this building sat swaggering on the main seat as he spoke, and the maids officially began to serve the food.

When the music started, the dancers twisted their waists and danced to the music.

The two little eyes of the magistrate of this building released a fine light, and he laughed and said, "Okay, good!" These girls are so beautiful! ”

Gu Yuanwai pouted and secretly glanced at the "master" on the side, but saw that the man didn't even raise his eyelids, just drank the wine in the cup by himself.

A dancing girl had already come over to pour wine for the three of them, but the "master" seemed to hate the woman very much, and rudely threw the dancing girl aside.

Lou Zhixian was very dissatisfied with the young man on the side, but he also knew that this person would have some strange witchcraft, so he had to frown, hugged left and right, and regarded it as invisible.

just scolded from the bottom of my heart:

As the saying goes, people are not romantic teenagers.

Such a beautiful scenery of wind and snow, it is really a waste for these people who don't understand!

On the second day, Duanmu Kaoru received the flying pigeon book, and after reading it, his brows couldn't help but twist in a qiē, and the purple clothes poked his little head when he saw this, who knew that Duanmu Kaoru suddenly put away the note.

"What's that?" Ziyi raised his head curiously and asked.

"Oh - after seeing the woman with a back that looked like Nazha that day, I flew a pigeon and sent a message to Fu Ling, who said that in the past few days, Nazha has been complaining of illness, and no one has seen her except the maid she brought closely. Fuling went to spy at night and found that Nanaza was really not in the palace. ”

"So, the person we saw that day was really her?" Ziyi raised her eyebrows, it seemed that this woman was far more complicated than she imagined. What is this woman marrying thousands of miles away to this Luodu Dynasty for?

"Hmph, no matter what, she will definitely participate in the Concubine Ceremony." Duanmu Kaoru's eyes couldn't help but turn cold.

If Nanaza was just to marry into the Luodui Dynasty, he would give her the title.

However, if she has any different intentions, then he can't be blamed for being cruel to her at that time!

Anyone who wants to hurt the Luo Dusk Dynasty and the purple cloth, he will not let it go!

There will be no place for them to die!

The concubine ceremony was held as scheduled, and Nazha also attended on time. Only Ziyi did not participate.

Everyone only said that Ziyi was forced to hand over the title to others, and they felt uncomfortable, except for some people who watched the excitement, no one cared.

This concubine ceremony is much worse than the ceremony after the seal, from the ceremony to some other details, it is not difficult to see Duanmu Kaoru's coping meaning. Although this Nazha is uneven in her heart, she can't find fault with it.

Although this concubine and the queen are only a small step apart, there is a world of difference.

And these days, the four of Ziyi, Duanmu Xun, Yintong and Yehuo have been staying in this Wuzhen.

Yehuo's body has not fully recovered, and it is inconvenient for Ziyi's feet to wander around, except for the news that the people from Wuhua Palace bring in from time to time, several people simply nested in this inn, and they had nothing to do to get together to fight.

After half a month, he didn't even catch a figure, and the magistrate couldn't help but be a little unable to sit still.

"Rubbish! It's all rubbish! "Smashed the teacup out, this city has been sealed for half a month, if it is sealed again, I am afraid that the court will send someone to interfere.

It's just a mere lewd [harmony] thief, if it is known from above that they are doing such a big thing for such a man, I am afraid that the Wusha on his head will not be able to protect.

kicked the messenger who was kneeling on the ground to the ground, and the magistrate of the building walked back and forth in the government office, bowing his head and thinking.

This matter is not so important, if it weren't for his nephew, there would be no need to make such a big move. Now that people can't find it, it's better to leave it at that, and if you continue to track it down, it's pointless.

As for his nephew, it would be good to appease and appease, anyway, the little concubine has already been subdued, and now she is locked in that prison in a crazy way, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to see the light of day in this life.

Just thinking about it, the guard outside the door suddenly came to report: "My lord, Gu Yuan asked to see outside." ”

"Let him in!" Lou Zhixian slapped his thigh with a smile on his face.

Gu Yuanwai walked in, and he didn't salute, so he rushed over and grabbed the hand of the magistrate of the building, and said, "Uncle, how is it, is there any news?" ”

However, in just half a month, this Gu Yuanwai looks like he has lost a lot of weight, and his complexion is also very bad.

Lou Zhixian frowned.

He was born late, this Gu Yuanwai's mother is his eldest sister, and his age is actually not much different from this Gu Yuanwai, the two of them can be said to have played since childhood, so they are also more intimate.

And his sister died early, so he loved this nephew even more.

"What's the matter, is there another concubine in the house?"

Haha, Lou Zhixian tried his best to ease the atmosphere first.

"Oh uncle, don't make trouble, I'm about to burn my farts [harmony] shares, tell me, how is the matter investigated? Do those individuals have any news? ”

Gu Yuanwai wiped the sweat from his head, and sat on the ground with a fart.

Now, he really found out that he was wrong!

Isn't it a cuckold!

Isn't it just that the concubine Hongxing is out of the wall!

Compared to now, those things are nothing to mention!

"Don't worry, tell me, what's wrong?" This Lou Zhixian also sensed that something was wrong.

If you say that his nephew, since he has made his business bigger in this White City, he has basically walked sideways on the street! Coupled with the support of his own uncle, he has never been so flustered.

"No—nothing, I'm just here to ask." Seeing that Lou Zhixian was suspicious, Gu Yuanwai's eyes were a little evasive.

"What else can't I say to my uncle!" Seeing that Gu Yuanwai refused to speak, Lou Zhixian's face was also gloomy. Since he was a child, his nephew has never hidden anything from him!

How did it become so strange now?

"Oops! It's really nothing! Forget it--" The Gu Yuanwai somehow suddenly shook his hand and ran towards the outside of the mansion without looking back!

It's not that he doesn't say it, it's that he doesn't dare to say it!

These days, three of the concubines in the house have died!

What kind of "master", no, it should be called a "demon" to warn them that they are not allowed to leak his affairs, otherwise, they will die without a place to be buried!

And those concubines are usually not strict in their mouths!

Trembling every day, Gu Yuanwai felt that he was on the verge of collapse.

This demon doesn't seem to be from this Luo Dusk Dynasty at all, and the deaths of those concubines are also miserable! It seems to be poisoning, but I don't know what poison it is and when it was poisoned.

And why he clung to that man, he didn't understand.

And this demon also has a skill, he seems to be able to change his face, today he is a forty-year-old man, tomorrow he will become a twenty-year-old youth, and the day after tomorrow he will pretend to be a teenager!

What's even more terrifying is that his body seems to be able to get bigger and smaller!

This Gu Yuanwai no longer knows whether this person is male or female, and how old he is.

The entire Gu family mansion was already panicked, and at this time, he really couldn't call the heavens and the earth.

And at this time in Wuzhen.

After half a month of recuperation, Ziyi's feet have improved a lot, and walking is no longer a problem, but he can't use light gong yet. And the night fire has long been alive and kicking.

In his own words: "If you have never been sick, you will never understand how rare it is to be healthy." ”

The guard in Wuzhen has been abolished, but several people do not seem to plan to return to the capital.

After deliberation, the group decided to take a risk and turn back to the white city again.

If the men in the White City don't find out for a day, they won't be at ease for a day. And the intuition told Sù Duanmu Kaoru that the man was not ordinary, and he casually sent people from the Wuhua Palace to investigate, not only might he startle the snake, but he might also lose his life for no reason.

So in the end, the group decided that it would be up to them to return and have a look.

The matter had been settled, and a few people simply packed their bags and hit the road.

However, before going on the road, they also asked Wuhua Palace to send letters to Fuling and Duanmu Xun respectively, and ordered Fuling to prepare the personal soldiers in the palace, dress up as ordinary people, and set off for Baicheng on the same day. And Duanmu Qi also picked out a few cronies from Wuhua Palace and hid in the shadows to use them as secret protection and message transmission.

When their feet stepped on the land of Baicheng again, everyone in the group could disguise themselves. Wearing the human skin [harmony] mask, the four of them swaggered to the nearby teahouse.

Sitting in the teahouse for a whole day, he didn't hear any useful news, and Yehuo couldn't help but be a little discouraged: "I said, they won't have given up already, right?" Maybe we're overhearted? ”

"In this way, the silver pupil is on fire at night, tonight, you go to the government office to have a look, and see what is going on over there. And Ziyi and I went to the home outside the Gu Yuan to investigate. Kaoru Duanmu commanded softly.

He always felt that the tranquility in the White City was something unusual at this time, as if it were the calm before the storm.

Silver Pupil and Nightfire nodded, and at night, the four of them divided into two groups and acted separately.

Outside the mansion, two black shadows rushed up to the roof.

Silver Pupil and Night Fire glanced at each other, Silver Pupil gestured to Night Fire, and the two of them rushed to the roof of Lord Zhixian.

In order to save the night fire, this mansion and silver pupils have come countless times, and coming here at this time is like walking in the garden of your own home.

Gently uncovering a tile from the roof, the two of them looked into the house.
