When he arrived at the end of the cold palace, Lei Yan turned around for a long time, but he didn't find Liu Liangren's residence.

Wen Qingzhu couldn't stand it anymore, and led him to the northernmost palace gate.

The door was locked with an iron lock, and under the iron lock was a small door the size of a square foot, which opened with a slight pull.

Lei Yan looked inside, it was pitch black, and there was nothing.

Wen Qingzhu glanced at today's moonlight, this cold palace was untended all year round, with lush trees and overgrown weeds.

"Did Sister Shuo sleep with you and hurt Liu Liangren?" Wen Qingzhu turned his head and pulled Lei Yan.

Lei Yan looked up and thought about it, then shook his head.

Glancing at the towering palace wall, Wen Qingzhu made a suggestion: "Why don't you jump on the wall and take a look, we won't be able to open this door for a while." ”

Lei Yan nodded, and when he was about to turn around, he suddenly found that behind the small door that was opened, a pair of dark eyes were revealed.

"I'll go!" Lei Yan was so frightened that he retreated again and again and shouted.

Wen Qingzhu looked back and saw that the inside of the small door was still dark, so he turned his head and asked him, "What did you see?" ”

"I saw a pair of cow-like eyes, and I was scared to death when they appeared behind that little door!!" Lei Yan patted his chest, and he still looked like he had palpitations.

"Really?" Wen Qingzhu was not afraid, and came closer to take a look.

Inside the small black door, there was not—

Wen Qingzhu's gaze fell to the bottom of the slope, and then in the faint moonlight, he saw a pair of eyes that were full of malice, as if he was going to eat half of her in the next moment.

Seeing this person appear at the door, Wen Qingzhu bent his eyebrows and said softly: "You are Liu Liangren?" ”

Who knew that those eyes showed a little dissatisfaction, and slowly fell down and disappeared into the darkness.

"You saw it!" Lei Yan hurriedly stepped forward.

Wen Qingzhu turned around and looked at the two trails on the left and right: "It stands to reason that there are also guards and eunuchs on duty here in the Cold Palace?" ”

"In the middle of the night, I won't be so concerned!" Lei Yan pulled her back two steps and pointed to the palace wall, "I'll take you up." ”

couldn't help but say, Lei Yan grabbed Wen Qingzhu's shoulder, kicked the ground, and flew up to the palace wall.

In the past, Fu Lie always hugged her waist, but Wen Qingzhu didn't feel anything.

Now Lei Yan directly grabbed his shoulder, pulled and pressed, and the force was so great that Wen Qingzhu's face turned green.

Lei Yan glanced at the palace and looked at it carefully, but he didn't find anyone at all.

Not even a single fly was seen.

"Qingzhu, that person—"

As soon as Lei Yan turned his head, he saw Wen Qingzhu holding his shoulders, his brows furrowed, and he looked very painful.

"What's wrong with you?"

Hearing his words, Wen Qingzhu said expressionlessly: "My shoulder was grabbed and dislocated by you, and I am breaking it back." ”

Lei Yan was stunned for a moment, and then heard a bone click.

I saw Wen Qingzhu slowly moving his left shoulder, and his face improved.

"Let's go down and find out." Wen Qingzhu didn't hesitate, grabbed Lei Yan's arm and jumped down.

With a plop, Wen Qingzhu stood up, flicked the dust on his body, and took out a fire fold from his sleeve, and after it was blown off, the surroundings lit up.

Looking down, Lei Yan was still lying on the ground, and then asked in surprise, "Are you okay?" ”

Lei Yan, who was aggrieved in his heart, endured the pain in his chest and slowly got up.

He finally realized Wen Qingzhu's pain just now, waved his hand and said, "It's okay, next time I know, why should I tell you first." ”

"Hmm." Wen Qingzhu nodded with a smile.

The two of them walked around the yard and the house for a long time, and except for finding some traces of people's activities, they didn't find the person who appeared at the door just now.

Returning to the gate of the cold palace, Wen Qingzhu fell into deep thought.

Just now, she and Lei Yan both saw someone inside, and it was definitely not them who were dazzled.

Lei Yan's martial arts are strong, and if ordinary people make any moves, they will definitely not be able to escape his ears and eyes.

But why did they find a circle but nothing?

"Qingzhu, although no one takes care of this cold palace, will so many trees be planted?" Lei Yan was also puzzled, looking at the trees hidden in the night.

If he couldn't still see the door of the house, Lei Yan suspected that this was not a cold palace at all.

Wen Qingzhu followed his line of sight: "Under normal circumstances, it won't. ”

The two men looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

Wen Qingzhu looked at the fire fold in his hand, which was about to burn out.

They had to hurry up and find that Liu Liangren.

Suddenly, in the thick of the night, there was a strange cat meow.

Wen Qingzhu looked at Lei Yan with surprise in his eyes.

They had just looked around, and there would never be cats in this place.

"Chase!" Lei Yan immediately made a decision, tried his best to take care of Wen Qingzhu, and ran after the cat.

After a while, they stood in front of a palace wall.

Lei Yan said with certainty: "That cat finally appeared here, and then disappeared abruptly. ”

Wen Qingzhu handed the fire fold to Lei Yan, and he touched the cat's paw prints on the mottled palace wall.

She looked up at the height of the palace wall, which was almost two feet high.

Looking back at the back again, there were some small bushes.

It was theoretically impossible for the cat to jump over the palace wall and get out.

Now the question is, where did the cat go? Android

You can't fly in the sky, so underground—

Wen Qingzhu looked down and let Lei Yan shine on the ground.

"Footprints! Or a woman's footprints! ”

The firelight illuminated the square inch under their feet, and a few stray footprints appeared in front of them.

Now in the depths of winter, there is no dry grass to deal with in the cold palace.

If you want to leave footprints on the dead grass, you can't say it's very close, very close.

The corners of Wen Qingzhu's mouth hooked, and he understood where Liu Liangren had hidden.

"Brother Yan, I know where she is hiding." Wen Qingzhu took Lei Yan and began to look from left to right.

Within a quarter of an hour, they stopped less than a foot away from the place where there were cat's paw prints.

The dead grass in front of them was different from the one they had just had, and it looked more like someone had deliberately placed it on it.

Lei Yan walked over and kicked the pile of dead grass with his foot, and kicked it away easily.

He kicked a few more times, revealing a square slab on the ground.

Lei Yan glanced at Wen Qingzhu, saw her squatting down directly, reached out and knocked on the slate.

Dangdang! Dangdang!

"Hollow." Wen Qingzhu laughed and glanced at this cold palace, "Liu Liangren doesn't look simple." ”

Wen Qingzhu stood up, thinking that after they had been looking for so long, that Liu Liangren could still catch the cat and take it away.

Presumably also a martial arts person.

"Don't worry about her, we can go back." Wen Qingzhu turned around to leave.

Lei Yan looked at the entrance of the tunnel, then at Wen Qingzhu's back, and asked strangely, "Aren't you looking for her?" ”

Wen Qingzhu waved his hand: "Sister Shuo asked you to come over to protect her, since she can protect herself, we naturally don't have to stay here." ”

Lei Yan hesitated, but still followed Wen Qingzhu.

After leaving Liu Liangren's residence, Wen Qingzhu deliberately went around to Goudan's residence.

casually pointed to the front: "Brother Yan, who do you see in front of you?" ”

Lei Yan immediately became nervous and said, "You hide here for a while, and I'll go and see the situation ahead." ”

After he left, Wen Qingzhu quietly opened the door and went to the dog's house.

When he arrived at the door of the original firewood room, Wen Qingzhu knocked lightly on the door a few times: "It's me, Sister Zhu, I brought you medicine, if you don't know how to boil medicine, I'll come back to teach you in a few days." ”

Seeing that there was no reaction in the house, Wen Qingzhu put down the medicine.

She glanced at the dilapidated wooden door and turned to leave.

But he didn't want to, the door panel behind him suddenly opened, and his sleeve was grabbed by a small force.

"Sister......

Wen Qingzhu sighed and turned around, he was still holding the day's roast chicken in his hand.

……

Half an hour later, Lei Yan came back with a serious face.

Seeing Wen Qingzhu leaning against the palace wall and pondering, he couldn't help but walk over quickly: "What's wrong?" ”

"It's okay, it's you, why did you go for so long?" Wen Qingzhu straightened up and asked.

Lei Yan turned sideways, pointed to the cold palace at the other end and said: "The last Fengyi who lived over there died, he was poisoned, and now Su Huo is leading people to investigate the case over there, he was going to come here, so I told him about Liu Liangren in private." ”

"The last one is dead?" Wen Qingzhu was deeply surprised, why did the people on this side of the cold palace have accidents one after another?

When passing through the exit of the Cold Palace, Wen Qingzhu also saw the officers and soldiers of the Criminal Department guarding the door.

She thought about it, but still felt that she should not go over.

Back on Wugutai, Jiang Yue had already returned, and Jiang Yuancheng was talking something in front of him.

Lei Shuo walked up to them and looked at Wen Qingzhu suspiciously: "You have been together all the time?" ”

"Hmm." Wen Qingzhu smiled and nodded, "I got lost, I just happened to run into Brother Yan." ”

Lei Shuohu looked at Wen Qingzhu suspiciously, she didn't believe it, but she didn't say anything.

Instead, he turned his head and looked at Jiang Yue: "Just now, the fifth prince proposed a plan to provide relief through work, and the emperor agreed with it, as if he wanted to reward him." ”

"What's the plan?" Wen Qingzhu's heart sank, Jiang Yuancheng was crowned king in the previous life, in addition to pulling the prince off the horse, another thing was to deal with the disaster victims quietly.

This made Jiang Yuelong's face happy, and he directly named him the king of Chu.

Lei Shuo explained: "Isn't the snow disaster in the south serious in the past two years? Before, Yunfeng made a mess of Kangcheng, and the people complained, and half of the silver for disaster relief could be counted as being in the hands of the victims. Now that the treasury is empty, just now he proposed a project to build a canal to divert water from the south to the north, and came up with detailed drawings and plans, which the Ministry of Works Shangshu said was completely feasible. ”

Wen Qingzhu's face was gloomy, wasn't this plan proposed by King Ning?

Thinking of the current situation, the prince is no longer too threatening, is Jiang Yuancheng going to fight for the king?

This plan is very feasible, and it was proposed by Jiang Yuancheng, an inconspicuous doorman.

Later, Jiang Yuancheng recognized his talents and promoted him, and at the same time convened the guests to discuss the specific trial plan.

But didn't you expect that the plan is mature now?

"You don't look happy?" Lei Shuo stared at Wen Qingzhu's side face and asked hesitantly.

Wen Qingzhu retracted his gaze and nodded: "I'm really unhappy, and Lord Lei must not be happy either." ”

Lei Shuo was still a little puzzled, but he saw that his grandfather had already gotten up and went to find Fu Xuan, the head of the Hanlin Academy, the head of the Fu family.

There is a curtain over there, and Wen Qingzhu can't see it really.

Lei Shuo next to him was stunned: "Grandfather actually took the initiative to find Master Fu......"

"It seems that the matter of sealing the king is not far from eight to nine." Wen Qingzhu turned his eyes to look at Jiang Yue's side, Concubine Cheng was not there, Concubine Hui and Concubine Wan were serving Jiang Yue on the left and right.
