A "There is an assassin" broke the tranquility of the Prince's Palace.

"Isn't it?" Zhan Zhao frowned, "There were assassins just coming back?" Will those princes be a little too impatient? ”

Bai Yutang was also a little puzzled, "I also feel like I'm in a hurry." ”

"Let's go and see." Zhan Zhao ran out of the house with a chicken leg in his mouth.

Bai Yutang sighed, looked at the dishes on the table that had not moved a few chopsticks, and said in his heart, who sent the assassin, he had to be beaten if he was caught!

Zhan Zhao ran to the courtyard, and saw that in the snow, several guards were circling, their eyes were full of confusion, and they were very nervous with big knives.

Zhan Zhao glanced up, and the corners of his mouth twitched......

I saw a row of holes on the courtyard wall in front of me that were almost human-high, what a row of holes that seemed familiar......

Zhan Zhao glanced back, and Bai Yutang held his forehead.

"Your Highness, this is ......" Su Yi ran over in horror and saluted Bai Yutang, "The subordinates are not doing well, and they didn't know that there were assassins intruding in the road. ”

Bai Yutang touched his chin and asked, "What about the assassin?" ”

"I don't know, we didn't see it, there seems to be a white shadow, but it doesn't seem to be ......" Suyi also looked helpless, "What's going on?" ”

Zhan Zhao looked back, and Bai Yutang winked at him.

Zhan Zhao nodded, and said to Su Yi, "I took people to search around, and I may have run away." ”

"Yes!" Suyi immediately took someone to search.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang returned to the room, closed the door and locked it, and turned back again...... I saw a man in white, sitting at the table eating. Isn't that Tianzun......

Bai Yutang looked at the sky, "Why did you come here?" ”

Tianzun chewed a chicken wing and aimed at Bai Yutang.

Zhanzhao sat down beside him and poured him wine...... It stands to reason that Tianzun's sneaking in with such light skills will not be discovered, it is estimated that he is lost again, and he has no choice but to make a hole and walk. Don't ask, Tianzun must not be worried about Bai Yutang, so come in and take a look.

Bai Yutang went to Tianzun and sat down, saw him looking at him, sighed, and called obediently, "Master." ”

Tianzun nodded.

Bai Yutang served him vegetables and asked, "Why are you here?" ”

"I'm afraid that something will happen to you, anyway, they know that you are Bai Yutang, and they also know that I am your master, what are you afraid of, just say it!" Tianzun tilted his face.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang glanced at each other and shook their heads, "No! ”

Tianzun looked at the two of them with half a chicken wing in his mouth.

"That Xuanyuan is not a good bird!" Zhan Zhao waved his hand at Tianzun, "Your status is so high, be careful that he plots against you!" ”

Tianzun looked at Bai Yutang again.

Bai Yutang also nodded, "While serving dishes to Tianzun and Zhanzhao, I told you what happened at today's banquet." “

Tianzun touched his chin, "Is there such a thing?" It's a little strange that the tiger doesn't eat its children. ”

"By the way, Tianzun, what about my grandfather?" Zhan Zhao asked.

"In the barracks." Tianzun said, "I'm on his side." ”

"Oh......" Zhanzhao relaxed.

Bai Yutang didn't dare to let Tianzun go back by himself, for fear that he would get lost or get into trouble on the way, so he just stayed by his side.

……

After dinner, Sui returned, saying that the Assassin might have escaped, and blamed himself.

Bai Yutang nodded to show that he understood.

However, Bai Yutang had attracted assassins just on the night of his stay, and this news still caused quite a stir in the Beihai Imperial City...... Everyone speculated about who sent it? Is it the eldest prince, or the third prince? It's so unbearable......

Only Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang knew that those princes were also unjustified.

Bai Yutang became the prince...... To be exact, he became the prince in a daze, but he didn't know what Lu Dao should do, and Xuanyuan didn't explain to him.

So, with doubts, everyone decided to rest early and talk about it when they were full......

However, Tianzun suddenly visited, and sleeping became a problem.

There were two beds in Bai Yutang's room, he originally decided to live with Zhan Zhao, but he didn't dare to leave Tianzun alone in the room, what if he ran out of the middle of the night to get into trouble? So, I had to Bai Yutang and Tianzun in a room, and I saw that he always slept and didn't make trouble, and Zhanzhao went back to the room to live, but it was next door.

Bai Yutang was lying on the bed, but he couldn't sleep, turning over and over, all in front of him was the look on Xuanyuan Jie when he talked about his sons' words "It's better to be stupid" just now.

He was on the bed looking up at the top of the bed in a daze, when he heard the window next door open, and then, the window on his side also opened, and Zhanzhao probed in.

Bai Yutang looked up at him.

Tianzun turned over, wrapped in the quilt and continued to sleep.

Zhan Zhao slipped in lightly and touched the side of Bai Yutang's bed.

Bai Yutang looked at him.

Seeing that Zhanzhao was holding two things in his hand, he bent down and reached out and began to touch them.

Bai Yutang couldn't cry or laugh, and asked in a low voice, "Cat, what are you doing?" Insulting me in the middle of the night? ”

As soon as the words came out, Tianzun over there suddenly turned around, opened his eyes and looked at this side.

"It's nonsense, it's not like I haven't touched it! Where have I not touched you, uncle? "Zhanzhao is quite proud.

Bai Yutang couldn't cry or laugh, and then looked at Tianzun, squinting his eyes and looking at this place with more interest-so that's the case? Have you touched it anywhere? Really?

Zhan Zhao finally touched the position of Bai Yutang's knee, pressed it a few times, and quietly reached under the futon, stuffed two warm things, and put them on his knee.

Bai Yutang was slightly stunned.

Zhan Zhao squinted his eyes and finished his work, and was ready to go back.

Bai Yutang hurriedly reached out and grabbed his sleeve and pulled him to sit down.

Zhanzhao sat down, and Bai Yutang lifted the quilt again, "Is it cold?" ”

"Okay." Zhanzhao got in.

Bai Yutang took out the cushion placed on his knees, and saw that it was two warm bags. This kind of warm bun he and Zhanzhao bought on the street when they entered Beihai City, it seems to be very popular, with two layers of cotton on both sides that do not catch fire, and two pieces of charcoal in it. Heat the charcoal and put it in a warm bag, and it is very warm to put on your body.

Bai Yutang saw that Zhanzhao bought two, and originally thought that he was afraid of cold, but he didn't expect that he bought it to cover his knees.

Bai Yutang remembered that when he went to Snow City with Zhan Zhao to investigate the case of Tianmu cannibalism, Zhan Zhao knew that he had some stagnant tendons because of his internal skills, so he stayed in a place that was too cold for a long time, and his knees would be sore...... It turns out that the cat has always been in mind.

Bai Yutang looked at Zhanzhao next to him, who was choosing a comfortable angle and preparing to sleep—even what he had almost forgotten, the cat actually remembered! This cat is so sweet that his heart is sweet......

At the other end, Tianzun turned over, smiled and arched into the quilt again.

But then again, Bai Yutang has been in Beihai for a while, but his knees have never been sore. He has been recuperating his internal breath much more smoothly than before, and now that he thinks about it, it may have something to do with the messy martial arts he was taught by the demons in the Demon Palace before......

There was one more person in the bed, and it was naturally a lot warmer, and with the effect of the warm bag, Bai Yutang gradually became sleepy.

……

I don't know how long I slept on the road, everything around me was very quiet, and the feeling of silence that is unique to snowy days...... Until all this was broken by a scream.

Bai Yutang opened his eyes, and Zhan Zhao also opened his eyes - the scream seemed to come from far away, but someone did scream.

After the two glanced at each other, they subconsciously turned their faces to look at the bed opposite.

I saw that Tianzun seemed to have woken up a long time ago, wrapped in a quilt, tilting his head sideways and supporting his cheeks, thinking about something.

After a while, I heard a "clang" gong sound from the bottom of the mountain, followed by a commotion, and gradually, the commotion became louder and louder, and it seemed that the people of the entire imperial city had woken up.

Bai Yutang sat up, Zhan Zhao also got up and got dressed, put on a cloak and returned to his room, took his sword and opened the door, just in time to see Su Yi running in in a hurry.

"Lord Yin, is the prince awake?" When Suyi saw Zhanzhao, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked.

Zhan Zhao gently knocked on Bai Yutang's room door.

Bai Yutang's voice came from inside, "What's wrong?" ”

Su Yi reported, "Your Highness, the sixth prince was assassinated. ”

Zhan Zhao was stunned and his eyes widened, "That scream just now? ”

Suyi nodded.

After a while, Bai Yutang opened the door and walked out, frowning, "Assassinated? ”

"Yes!" Su Yi said, "There was a scream in the palace of the six princes just now, and then there were soldiers patrolling the city back and forth, and the six princes died in their own bedrooms. ”

Bai Yutang frowned, and said to himself, "Why is Beihai like Kaifeng, you can encounter a murder when you come?" ”

Zhan Zhao also felt that his temples were jumping, and the fourth son said before that there must be a belt in him and Bai Yutang, otherwise they would not die everywhere, this time it was really fulfilled.

After all, Bai Yutang was not familiar with the Sixth Prince, and when he met him just now, he was almost impressed, so he asked Suyi, "Do I need to do anything?" ”

Su Yi shook his head, "Your Highness can be careful, I will order to strengthen the vigilance." ”

"Oh." Bai Yutang nodded.

So he went down.

At this time, I saw Fu Gao running in with an umbrella in one hand and a stove in the other, "Your Highness." ”

Bai Yutang saw that there was a lot of snow on him, so he asked, "What?" Have you inquired? ”

Fu Gao smiled, "The people talk quickly among the subordinates, and those military masters basically don't want to say much." ”

Bai Yutang nodded and motioned for him to come down to the eaves.

Fu Gao walked over, took the umbrella, and said to Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, "I went to inquire just now, and the scream came from the palace of the Six Princes, and several of his subordinates ran into the house to take a look...... Oops! Fu Gao shrunk his neck, "The six princes are in a different place!" ”

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were stunned, "Beheaded?" ”

"yes!" Fu Gao nodded, "It is said that the corpse is at the door, the head is on the table, facing the door, and the little eunuchs who are serving him are scared to pee their pants!" ”

Zhan Zhao frowned slightly, "That's ...... Was it the Six Princes themselves who screamed? ”

"It sounds like it!" Fu Gao nodded.

"Not long after that happened, the murderer was not found?" Bai Yutang asked, "Aren't there any guards nearby?" ”

"There's no reason for that." Zhan Zhao was puzzled, "The guards are very tight, right?" ”

"That's it!" Fu Gao nodded, "The guards near the palace are very tight, and each of His Highness's mansions has guards on the third floor and three layers outside...... Besides, why kill the six princes? It's not interesting. ”

"Why do you say that?" Bai Yutang asked.

"Well, the six princes are the ones who don't want to fight for the throne the most, and they don't have a temper, they like to eat, drink and have fun, the key is that they don't have power! Why kill him? It seems like a lot of hatred. Fu Gao said, shaking his head, "Hey......"

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang glanced at each other.

Bai Yutang said to Fu Gao, "You go back to sleep first, don't run around at night, I'm new here, someone should be notified of something." ”

"Yes." Fu Gao didn't bother to care so much, anyway, none of those princes he could look at, who knew who he had offended. I went to sleep, and I guess I will be busy tomorrow.

As soon as Fu Gao left, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang hurried back to the room and arrived at Tianzun's bedside.

Tianzun is holding his chin and yawning under the covers.

"Master." Bai Yutang asked him, "Did you hear anything just now?" ”

Tianzun looked at the two of them and smiled slightly.

"Tianzun, did you really hear that?" Zhan Zhao asked.

"It's good that it's snowing tonight, otherwise you might not have found it." Tianzun beckoned to the two of them and said, "There were indeed footsteps stepping on snow just now, and it was the snow on the roof. ”

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang both looked at Tianzun and asked, "Where?" ”

"Let's go down the mountain." Tianzun said, "It's not close. ”

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang's eyes widened, what does that mean-you can hear it from so far away?!

"Tsk." Tianzun glanced at the two of them, "Within a radius of ten miles, I can find a fly flying past your master!" ”

Bai Yutang squinted at him, that meant—not too convinced.

"It's a lonely night, and it's easy to find out when someone walks by, not to mention that person has no internal strength, and he hides his internal strength and walks quietly...... If it hadn't snowed tonight, I probably wouldn't have noticed. ”

"The murderer is a person?" Zhan Zhao asked.

Tianzun nodded.

"Where did he go after the killing?" Zhan Zhao asked, "Or rather, from which direction?" ”

Tianzun looked at the two of them, suddenly smiled slightly, and pointed to the top.

Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao were both stunned, and subconsciously looked up - above?

"The direction of the Imperial Palace." Tianzun raised his eyebrows slightly.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were stunned for a moment and looked at him, "You said that the person who came out of the palace and killed the six princes?" ”

Tianzun stretched out his hands, "Then I don't know what to do, but there was indeed an internal force just now, and it was quite fast." ”

"What kind of internal force?" Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were puzzled, "We didn't feel it. ”

"Very high inside" Tianzun touched his chin, "It's different from Xuanyuan's kind, oops, this Beihai Palace is also Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, so many masters." ”

After hearing what Tianzun said, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were a little puzzled - in addition to Xuanyuan Ji in the palace, there was actually a master?

"Hey." Zhan Zhao suddenly poked Bai Yutang, "How about we take a turn around the entire palace tomorrow?" ”

Bai Yutang nodded, "You want to go to that master?" ”

"Yes......" But before Zhanzhao finished speaking, he heard a commotion outside.

"Hey! What are you going to do? Fu Gao's voice came.

"Fuck off! Let's find the murderer of the Six Emperor Brothers! ”

"The prince is suspicious, let's search the prince's palace!"

Bai Yutang raised an eyebrow at Zhan Zhao.

Zhan Zhao looked at Tianzun on the bed, looked at Bai Yutang, what does that mean-what should I do?

……

"What nonsense are you talking about? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been resting in the room, what kind of murderer is the assassin from where! Fu Gao was not convinced.

"Minions! It's your turn to talk! "The first person doesn't know how many princes Lu Dao is, and he is about to cut Fu Gao with a knife.

Fu Gao doesn't look young, it's not that he doesn't know martial arts at all, and he is also clever and dodges in a flash.

The two guards were about to chase after them.

At this time, a black shadow stabbed out and blocked the two guards, "The prince's mansion is important, who dares to make a noise?" ”

"Suyi!"

At this time, the eldest prince behind everyone walked out, "What identity are you, dodge!" ”

"The emperor has decreed that no one should disturb His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Suyi does not let it.

Just when the two sides were at a stalemate, I saw the door gently push and open...... A chill was pressing.

Fu Gao shuddered, and everyone outside the door was also shocked, and said in his heart, what is the situation? It's colder in this room than outside?

After a period of cold air, Bai Yutang walked out, and a thin layer of frost immediately appeared on the doors and pillars of the room where he passed.

Seeing that there were a lot of people at the door, Bai Yutang walked out of the door slowly and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Back to Your Highness, they said they came to find the murderer."

Bai Yutang raised his eyebrows, "Murderer? ”

"My sixth emperor brother was killed, and we are here to find the murderer."

Bai Yutang looked at the person who spoke, remembering that this was a prince, but Bai Yutang had a problem now, he felt that these ten princes looked almost alike like the top ten masters of the Tianshan Sect...... He really couldn't tell who was who for a while, or he would have consulted with them and asked them to show a number on their hats or clothes, so that it would be easier to recognize.

"Prince."

At this time, the eldest prince walked up, and the prince shouted reluctantly, "We are not here for you, but there is evidence." ”

Bai Yutang looked at him, what it meant—let's hear it.

"At the door of my sixth brother's room, there is a series of footprints, and we followed that set of footprints and chased them to your house." The eldest prince said, pointing behind him.

And all the people looked back...... I saw a mess of footprints behind him

"Oops, sorry, sorry, the footprints were trampled by my people." The eldest prince smiled.

"Hey! Can you do that? Fu Gao was dissatisfied, "This is called death without proof!" ”

The eldest prince smiled, "But we have all seen it, and all of them are certified." Therefore, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still suspicious, so it is better to ......"

He didn't finish his words, but he saw Bai Yutang interrupt him with a slight wave of his hand, and asked slowly, "You came after the footprints?" ”

"yes!"

Bai Yutang nodded and pointed behind him, "Do you see if there are footprints?" ”

A few people looked behind Bai Yutang...... There were no footprints, and the snow was untouched and flat on the long road behind him until the door of the house.

Su Yi frowned slightly, and subconsciously looked at the part of the road he had just run over...... The footprints are still there.

At this time, the heavy snow has stopped, and the footprints left behind cannot be covered by snowflakes at all, but the question is ...... Bai Yutang just walked out!

"Maybe you've been running in for a long time and you're covered in snow?" Behind the eldest prince, a prince helped.

Bai Yutang shook his head, "Stupider than a pig." ”

"What did you say?!" A few people were annoyed.

The eldest prince frowned slightly, glanced at everyone behind him, and signaled to shut up.

"Since I'm no longer suspicious, please go elsewhere to find the murderer." After speaking, Bai Yutang turned around and went back, raising his eyebrows at Su Yi, "Take out that brand and send them away." ”

Suyi bowed and saluted, "Yes." ”

"Hey!" There are a few princes who still want to chase.

The eldest prince waved his hand lightly and motioned for them to look at the ground.

Everyone looked again, only to see Bai Yutang turn around and walk into the room, but there was not a single footprint left on the ground.

All the princes swallowed their spittle - how could it be?

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is strong in martial arts, even if he wants to commit murder, he will not leave footprints." Su Yi arched his hand, "And in the courtyard, you and others are bounded, there are footprints behind you, but there are no footprints elsewhere in the courtyard, which means that no one has entered or left during this time." ”

Several people looked at each other and wanted to say something more.

Su Yi took out a golden waist card from his arms, "The emperor has an order, anyone who harasses His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be killed." ”

……

Everyone stared at the waist card and was stunned, Xuanyuan Ji actually handed over the gold medal that symbolized the supreme imperial power, and this only one piece to Bai Yutang......

The eldest prince flicked his sleeves and led everyone away.

Fu Gao ran behind Su Yi, "Lord Su, they are clearly looking for faults. ”

Su Yi sighed, "Your Highness is a big tree, and there may be more trouble in the future." ”

"Don't be afraid, Your Highness has the ability." After saying that, Fu Gao ran to sleep.

Su Yi looked at the snow-white flat ground at the door again, and frowned - if it was just about martial arts, I am afraid that all the princes would not be as good as Bai Yutang if they were combined.

and everyone is gone.

In the room, Zhan Zhao's arm gently rubbed Bai Yutang, "Hey, big rat who attracts wind, your royal brothers and brothers really don't miss every opportunity to trouble you?" ”

Bai Yutang frowned, "Their trick is indeed not smart, but it is also a bit sudden, if you do it often, it will be quite troublesome." ”

"I've said that you're making a big move, so what should I do?" Zhan Zhaobian also glanced at Tianzun, who was sleeping with the quilt on his side - what if Tianzun was discovered?

Bai Yutang thought for a while, and suddenly touched his chin and stared at Tianzun, "You said you could put makeup on him?" ”

Zhan Zhao was curious, "Makeup? What does it look like? ”

Bai Yutang looked at Tianzun, who was sleeping soundly for a long time, and suddenly smiled, and raised his eyebrows at Zhanzhao, as if he had thought of some interesting way.

Zhan Zhao felt that Bai Yutang was smiling badly...... Like a rat with a bad heart.
