In the quiet of the night, in the woods, two people who came out from under the big trees were dressed in coarse cloth clothes.

"Your Highness, Princess, this way!" Someone shouted quietly from behind them.

"Sink fish, be careful." The man took the woman's hand and pulled her up.

It turned out that these two people were Xu Xiang and Jiang Shenyu, who were announced to have died in the fire in Bangyue Tower.

The fire was set by Xu Xiang himself, and the reason why he chose to be in Bangyue Building was because he had already bought Bangyue, so there would be no loss in burning his own building.

However, he didn't have any money, and the money to buy the house was all Jiang Shenyu's.

This fake death was to escape from Linzi, and from the moment he received the news that Jiang Shenyu was going to Beimeng and his relatives, the plan had already begun.

First of all, he had to settle the matter of friendship. After analysis, he knew that Beimeng should not have the idea of attacking the East China Sea, so Beimeng's plan to ask Jiang Shenyu and his relatives was just to lure him out.

Secondly, you have to take Jiang Shenyu away. According to the character of the King of the East China Sea, he definitely can't easily take Jiang Shenyu, a person who can even sell his own daughter twice, and expect him to think about his daughter's happiness?

So, the musket was tinkered out by him. Originally, such a thing that is ahead of the times, will it be a little inappropriate to take it out, after all, the current world is still in the era of cold weapons, once they master the (hot) weapons, then will the world fall into endless wars?

However, he had no other way, the only strength he had was a few Spark Hidden Guards, and no one could help him.

Sure enough, the advent of the musket, the great power of the Sanhe Street, and the musket technology have received the attention of many forces.

In this way, the plan can be carried out smoothly.

And after Wang Xiaoyi arrested Mrs. Lu and threw Xu Yi into prison, his plan changed slightly, and he wanted to drag Suihou's Mansion into the water.

The killer of the Suihou faction was shot by him on Sanhe Street, and the Suihou Mansion naturally had a strong interest in muskets.

He redrew a sketch of the production of the musket, deliberately creating false news that someone had stolen the drawings, which made Jiang Fu anxious, so that by the mouth of Suihou, someone would trade the drawings in Bangyue Lou would definitely attract Jiang Fu's attention.

He asked Jiang Fu to watch himself and Jiang Shenyu "die" with his own eyes.

Of course, it is impossible for Xu Xiang not to consider Jiang Xiang's meticulous thoughts, after all, when the fire ignited, everyone ran out, and if you two didn't run out, are you stupid?

In order to dispel his thoughts of having this idea, Xu Xiang arranged a "killer", and this killer must be strong in martial arts and cannot be caught by the East China Sea, so Yang Dianfeng recommended Qin Chong to him the acquired eightfold.

Coupled with Jing'er's testimony, Jiang Cheng believed that they had died in the fire.

Qin Chong was a native of Chu State, and he was already here long before Xu Xiang arrived in the East China Sea.

He has some personal relations with Yang Dianfeng, and Xu Xiang doesn't know why Lao Yang can ask him to help with this, but it's not important anymore.

"Lao Yang, is everything arranged?" Xu Xiang walked up to Yang Dianfeng and asked.

"Your Highness, it has been arranged, we will go to Zichuan County tonight and rest there for one night. Early tomorrow morning, you can follow the merchant ship from Zishui to leave the East China Sea. ”

Xu Xiang nodded and sighed: "Alas, it's just Xu He ......"

Xu He, the Xinghuo Hidden Guard, was originally the running buddy of Bangyue Tower, and this time he planned to choose Bangyue Tower because he was there.

This secret passage leading from Bangyue Tower to the outside of the city was also dug by Xu River. Not only that, Xu He also claimed to be a secret agent in Northern Mongolia, which made Xu Xiang's plan closer to perfection.

"Your Highness, this is Xu He's own choice. If there is no secret agent from another country, as the buyer of the drawings, then how can he pull Suihou into the water? It is also an honor for the Starfire Hidden Guard to be loyal to His Highness, and he has already prepared for it, if he doesn't die this time, then there is no need to worry about the affairs of the East China Sea! ”

"I hope my eldest brother doesn't lose his mind because of Shenyu and my 'death'!" Xu Xiang sighed.

"Let's go!"

Jiang Shenyu looked at the direction of Linzi City from afar, his expression was slightly sad, and he was silent.

"Sinking fish." Xu Xiang gently held her hand, "Let's go, I'll take you back when I have a chance." ”

"Really? Changsha, I have never left Linzi, I have lived here for 17 years, I am reluctant to give up Brother Wang, reluctant to Jing'er......"

"Trust me! We'll be back one day! Xu Xiang looked at the high walls of Linzi City and said.

Xu Xiang's words made her nod heavily.

I never thought that one day after many years, she would really come back. It's just that it's no longer a thing, and she came back with 100,000 iron horsemen behind her.

In the East China Sea Palace, Jiang Zhen sits on the throne, below are the five monarchs of the East China Sea and the two princes, and the civil and military officials above the main hall are lined up on both sides.

The East Sea King looked indifferent, his face was a little pale, and his spirit was slightly sluggish.

"Lone didn't expect so many things to happen yesterday. Linzi City, which has been dull for a long time, is this going to be lively? ”

In the silent hall, he still spoke first.

The people below were silent, and no one was suitable to speak at this time.

"Bring people in! Lone wants to interrogate it himself! '”

Not long after, Nangong and his son were brought to the main hall, but the aristocratic clothes on their bodies had been stripped off and they were wearing a thin underwear.

"Chen Nangong Sui (Nangong Que) see the king!" When the father and son came to the lobby, they knelt down before him.

The ministers above the hall all whispered, and couldn't help but think of the rumored Lyceum Company that had been rumored in the market to die in the sea of fire, and the father and son were arrested on the spot.

The status and power of the five monarchs of the East China Sea in the East China Sea are not small, but this matter has nothing to do with them, as long as it does not involve their own interests, they are too lazy to speak.

They all looked at the father and son coldly, and only an old man in the ranks of the third-rank officials stood up and said; "Your Majesty, after all, Suihou is the Hou Ye, and the Second Highness can't help but say, is it inappropriate to arrest the Hou Ye father and son?"

"What? Lord Xun, do you want to intercede for his father and son? Jiang Zhe asked coldly.

"Don't dare! It's just a matter of speaking up!"

"What a righteous man! So, Lord Xun thinks that this prince has wronged them? ”

"Wronged! Your Majesty, what a great wrong! The minister and the dog just happened to appear near the Bangyue Tower, but the second highness regarded the minister as the arsonist, which was really wronged! Nangong Sui hurriedly shouted injustice.

Hearing this, the ministers of civil and military affairs above the hall were in an uproar, and when they heard the rumors at first, they thought that they were caught red-handed by the Hou father and son, but they didn't expect to just appear nearby.

"Your Majesty, the minister also thinks that this move of His Royal Highness is deeply inappropriate! Just appeared at the scene, and the suspect was arrested, when did we Donghai conclude the case based on this?

"If the marquis of the kingdom is arrested just because of this, how is it different from a trumped-up crime?"

"His Royal Highness has no evidence, why should he arrest people? Hou Ye and his son should be released immediately! ”

"That's right! Release the Hou Ye immediately, and His Royal Highness should come to the door to ask for guilt! ”

The civil and military officials said a word, and they all spoke out to denounce Jiang Zhe, and the entire hall suddenly became a vegetable market.

"Shut up! Above the main hall, noisy and noisy, what kind of system has it become? Jiang Zhen shouted sharply, and those civil and military officials stopped.

These civil and military officials are very shrewd, and they say that denunciating Jiang Zhe is not because of how good the relationship with Suihou is, but for their own interests.

The royal family of the East China Sea has always been weak, and more than half of the decisions have to find the five monarchs of the East China Sea, but after Jiang Zhen ascended the throne, there were faint signs of suppressing the five monarchs of the East China Sea.

This is not a good phenomenon, and if it continues like this, the status and interests of these nobles will be damaged.

Today can arrest a marquis without evidence, tomorrow the East China Sea royal family wants to move a nobleman, do you still need a reason? This inevitably gave them a strong sense of crisis.

"Your Majesty, if Your Royal Highness has no evidence, it is a little inappropriate to arrest the marquis rashly." Mu Yangjun of the Five Monarchs of the East China Sea stood up and opened his mouth.

His words represent the opinions of the five monarchs of the East China Sea. Although Jiang Zhen was strong, he couldn't ignore the power of the five monarchs of the East China Sea, so he glanced at Jiang Zhen.

Jiang Yu understood, first gave a junior salute to Mu Yangjun, and then said: "What Mu Yangjun said is very true, my second brother arrested people, naturally there is certain evidence." Second brother, can you bring someone up? ”

"Oh?" Mu Yangjun showed a curious look, "Since there is evidence, can Your Highness present it, if the evidence is conclusive, then the ministers and others will naturally be convinced." ”

It means that if the evidence is not strong enough, then they still have to make trouble.

Jiang Zhe smiled coldly, "Come on, bring people up!" ”

It didn't take long for the guards to escort a man to the temple, but the man was covered in bruises, his hair was scattered on his face, and he couldn't see his face clearly, so he must have been tortured a lot.

"Who is this?" Mu Yangjun asked with a frown.

"This is the palace guard, I don't know if the Hou Ye knows it?" Jiang Zhe said, looking at Nangong Sui with a smile.

Nangong Sui didn't think about it and said: "Benhou rarely enters the palace, how can he know the guards of the palace?" ”

"Oh? Is it? Jiang Zhe walked towards the man, grabbed his hair, dragged him to Nangong Sui, and lifted the hair that covered the man's face, "Master Hou take a good look, do you know each other?" ”

"Master Hou......" The man's face was covered with scars, and he was angry.

Nangong Sui was nervous for a while, and his eyes were a little evasive, but soon he returned to normal, and said coldly: "Second Highness, this person Benhou has never seen before!" ”

"It's okay if you haven't seen it!" Jiang Fu walked up, "There is another person, it is the person you follow the Hou Mansion, you can't rely on it if you want to!" ”

"Come on, bring Wang Xiaoyi up!"

After Wang Xiaoyi was escorted up, Nangong Sui did not fluctuate, but Nangong Que was so frightened that he was not possessed.

"Muyang-jun probably doesn't know what happened a few days ago, right?" Jiang Fu explained, "A few days ago, on Sanhe Street, Xu Changsha, the second prince of Chu, defeated Beimeng Mujun with a mysterious weapon! And resolved the crisis of the pressure of the Northern Mongolian army! ”

"The minister knows about it! But what does it matter if this follows Hou? At this time, we are talking about the arson of Bangyue Tower, right? ”

The matter of the musket has spread throughout the East China Sea, Mu Yangjun naturally knows about the mysterious weapon, and he has also thought about taking this weapon for himself, but the East China Sea royal family is keeping an eye on it, and he has never had a chance to do it.

"What Mu Yangjun doesn't know is that Xu Changsha has decided to dedicate the drawings of this weapon to me in the East China Sea!"

"Oh? That's a good thing! ”

"But a few days ago, Xu Changsha's home was stolen, and the gold and silver were not touched, but this drawing was missing!" Jiang Fu said again, taking out a strip of cloth from his arms, "There is nothing left at the scene except this rag." ”

"At first, I didn't know the identity of the thief, but when I saw Suihou's dress, I understood! The half flower on this rag was the national flower of Suiguo at that time, the wattle flower! ”

"Vitex flowers?" Mu Yangjun frowned slightly, and then nodded, "In the past, on the grand court, on the dress of Suihou, the embroidered flowers were unique, and it was indeed this jingxiang flower. ”

"Sure enough, the people of the Imperial Martial Arts Camp found a black night robe in Suihou's mansion, and this night robe happened to be partially missing!" Jiang Fu said, the soldier of the imperial military camp was holding a wooden plate, on which was stacked a night coat with a missing corner, and he put the rag in his hand in the gap, which matched perfectly.

"Ahh It really fits! ”

"So, it was the people who followed the marquis who stole the drawings?"

Seeing such a scene, all the civil and military officials sighed, and suddenly Suihou became the target of everyone.

"Nonsense! I don't have such clothes! This is definitely not something from my Suihou Mansion! Seeing this, Nangong Sui argued loudly.

"This person was captured from Bangyue Tower, and this drawing was also found from him!" Jiang Fu walked to Wang Xiaoyi's side, "Suihou, do you have anything else to say?" ”

"He's just a little slave, Ben Hou doesn't know such a person at all! Even if he steals the drawings, it is his own initiative, and it has nothing to do with Benhou! ”

Nangong Sui vaguely felt that something was wrong, as if the spearhead of all this was pointed at him.

"Muyang-kun! I've been framed, you believe me! Help me explain to the King! Nangong Sui knew that Jiang Yu seemed to have regarded himself as the mastermind behind the scenes, so he could only ask Mu Yangjun for help.

However, the evidence is in front of you, to say that a small slave An dares to trade with such an important weapon blueprint, and then set fire to the building? No one will believe this!
