11th (8th of the first lunar month)

Within a moment, Li Sanlang had already led two hundred Yulin troops to arrive at the Liang Palace, but according to the prior agreement with Li Ke, at this moment Li Sanlang did not let the Yulin Army enter the Liang Palace, but quietly and secretly surrounded the Liang Palace, only allowing personnel to enter, if they went out, they would be secretly detained immediately, and what to do next, everything was waiting for Li Ke's news.

Wu Sansi, the king of Liang, was the empress's own nephew and was crowned king, and he had long been a strong contender for the throne, and few people in the court dared to be an enemy of him, even if the crown prince was in front of him, he had to have some scruples, let alone lead troops to surround his mansion. It's no wonder that when the order was given just now, most of the soldiers of the Yulin Army were at a loss and didn't dare to respond, so today's matter must be properly handled.

It is said that the crown prince Li Xian has always been cowardly, and Li Sanlang did not report to him in advance about tonight's incident, he knew that if he told him, it was very likely that he would end up without a problem. So at this moment, Li Sanlang can be said to be desperate and dangerous, but for some reason he has an inexplicable trust in Li Ke, and he is willing to take a risk with his suggestions, and if it comes out tonight, it will also be a heavy blow to Liang Wangwu Sansi.

Although Li Sanlang is still young, he always seems to be more courageous than his father when it comes to important things, and he has no reason to back down on tonight's events, so he quickly made a decision to act. After everything was arranged, all he had to do was wait, waiting for the news from Li Ke to deliver at any time. Now he is like a beast about to prey on the prey, calm on the outside, but full of excitement in his heart, ready to attack at any time.

He did not bring out all the 100 forest troops assigned by Li Ke, but instead Li Ke asked them to stand by in the same place in Long'an Division. Li Ke only carefully selected one person from these hundred people, named Wang Sanhu, who was very young and looked smart, but this person's appearance belonged to the kind that was not recognized in the crowd at all. Li Ke asked him to change into casual clothes, so he took Duo Yu with him, and the three of them set off together.

Along the way, Li Ke taught Wang Sanhu what he was going to do word by word, and asked him to repeat it a few times. After a while, they also arrived at their destination, the mansion of Qing Wujiang of Dali Temple.

According to what Li Ke had taught in advance, Wang Sanhu staggered and panted step by step and knocked on the door of the mansion, while Li Ke led Duo Yu to hide in the corner, secretly observed, and waited for an opportunity to move. Wang Sanhu knocked on the door urgently, and after a while, someone came to open the door, the person who opened the door was about forty years old, dressed as a housekeeper, and saw Wang Sanhu after opening the door, and shouted angrily: "Who is coming?" In the middle of the night, he dared to disturb Qingning in Wufu! ”

Wang Sanhu pretended to be out of breath and said, "Quick! Fast! Come out to your stewards! I am a servant of Liang Wangfu, and I came to report the news, but it will be too late! ”

As soon as he heard that the person who came was from Liang Wangfu, the person who opened the door immediately changed his face, his tone slowed down, and he whispered: "Little brother is from Liang Wangfu?" Please bear with me, I saw my little brother's eyes, and I didn't recognize it for a while! Don't blame! ”

Wang Sanhu waved his hand and continued to pant and said, "Quick! Tell the steward to come out, it's too late. ”

The person who opened the door arched his hand and said: "In Xia Bucai, it is the steward in this martial mansion, called Wufu, why is the little brother so anxious?" ”

Seeing that it was the person in charge, Wang Sanhu hurriedly said: "Lord Wujiang sent me to pass the word quickly, quickly!" Quickly transfer that woman to Dali Temple, the Yulin Army is about to surround here! ”

When Wu Fu heard this, his face was startled at first, but he held back his panicked look, and asked calmly, "What woman?" I don't know. ”

Wang Sanhu saw that he replied like this, so he arched his hand and said: "The villain has brought the words according to the requirements of Lord Wujiang, and the rest should be handled by Mr. himself, and the villain will leave." Then he turned around and left.

didn't take a few steps, Wu Fu hurriedly came up and grabbed Wang Sanhu, and whispered: "Are you really entrusted by Lord Wujiang?" Is there a token? ”

Wang Sanhu raised his hand to break free of Wufu, and said: "The incident happened suddenly, the Yulin Army has surrounded the Liang Palace, and the villain and I quietly escaped under the cover of everyone to pass on the news, how can I get any tokens?" Now that the Yulin Army has marched here, I want to get out as soon as possible, lest I be caught like in the Liang Wangfu, and the villain's life is important, and I will leave! After that, he turned around and turned from walking to running, and left quickly without looking back, Wu Fu even shouted a few times, but Wang Sanhu didn't agree again. Wang Sanhu followed Li Ke's instructions, ran straight to Long'an Division after leaving, and ordered the Yulin army there to go to the Wujiang Mansion now.

Wu Fu saw that the people had run away, so he had to look left and right at the street, and after making sure that there was no one else, he hurriedly went back to the house and locked the door. At this moment, Li Ke, who was hiding in the shadows, saw the opportunity to take Duo Yu and started to act. They carefully came to the wall of Wujiang Mansion, and jumped on the courtyard wall of Wufu with light skills, Duo Yu did not know martial arts, and was suddenly taken to the courtyard wall by Li Ke, with a burst of fear in his heart, and almost fell down, but fortunately Li Ke reacted in time, grabbed it, and the two slowly leaned down and lay on the courtyard wall, and stayed on the courtyard wall for a while, and Duo Yu got used to it.

Li Ke and the others were on the courtyard wall of the martial arts, and the things in the courtyard could be seen clearly, and the martial arts became hurried as soon as they returned to the courtyard, he summoned a few domestic servants, went to the backyard, and carefully lifted a stone slab next to a big tree, only to see that there were stairs under the stone slab, and there was actually a secret room below. Several people hurried into the secret room, and after a while, a woman was tied up and brought out, and something was stuffed in her mouth, but she did not resist, and let them fiddle.

Li Ke was far away, and he didn't see the woman's face clearly for a while, but Duo Yu beside him suddenly whispered: "It's the princess!" This sudden cry shocked Li Ke's heart, and Li Ke looked at the few people in the courtyard, but fortunately they didn't notice it, and continued to use a huge black cloth bag to cover the woman from head to toe.

Li Ke turned his head to Duo Yu and whispered, "Can you see clearly?" Is that a princess? ”

Duo Yu nodded affirmatively, and replied in a low voice: "There will be no mistake, that person is the princess, I recognize her clothes." Moreover... Besides, the place where we were being held did not see the light of day, and it must have been the secret room. ”

Li Ke nodded after hearing this, and motioned for Duo Yu to stop speaking and wait to see how they acted. I saw that after a few people tied the woman tightly, they led them to a small door in the backyard, ready to go out through the back door. Li Ke saw that everything was as he expected, so he took Duo Yu down the courtyard wall and went around to the back door of the mansion together.

At this time, a carriage was slowly coming, driven by Wu Fu, accompanied by four or five domestic servants. Seeing this, Li Ke let Duoyu continue to hide in the shadows, and he stopped in the middle of the road, blocking the way of the carriage. Wu Fu couldn't help but be afraid when he saw someone blocking the way, but he still shouted: "Who is so bold? Dare to block the carriage of Dali Siqing? Do you know what kind of crime you should be guilty of? Li Ke didn't have the heart to fight with him, he took out his long sword and stepped forward directly to attack, and in a few snaps of his fingers, all the servants were knocked to the ground, and his long sword was on Wu Fu's neck, and Wu Fu was so frightened that he didn't dare to move. Li Ke made a gesture to Duo Yu in the dark, and Duo Yu hurriedly ran over, climbed into the car, and lifted the curtain to check on the people in the car.

When Duo Yu got into the car, Wu Fu glanced at her, saw her face clearly, and couldn't help but be surprised, but he didn't dare to make a sound, all of this was in Li Ke's eyes, and at this time Li Ke was very sure in his heart that the person in the car must be Princess Arzina.

"Princess! Princess! You okay? Duo Yu's slightly crying voice came from the car. Li Ke put his head into the carriage and asked, "Are you sure it's the princess?" Duo Yu hurriedly nodded yes, Li Ke approached the princess in the car, probed the princess's pulse with his hand, and then said to Duo Yu: "It's okay, she just got drugged, and she should wake up after a while." ”

At this time, there was a neat march not far away, Li Ke looked up, it turned out to be a hundred Yulin troops left behind had arrived here, and after the Yulin army approached, Li Ke stood on the car and ordered loudly: "Wang Sanhu, quickly go to the Liang Wangfu to summon the news, and arrest Dali Temple Qing Wujiang!" The rest of the people searched the Wujiang Mansion, especially the place in the backyard, and carefully identified whether there was new soil to bury it! ”

"Whoa!" The soldiers of the Yulin Army replied loudly and began to move. Seeing this, Wu Fu had no choice but to sigh, shook his head again and again, and finally reacted, just now he was considered to have fallen into the plan of knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger!

At the same time, in the Liang Wangfu, in the backyard study.

Wu Sansi smashed a teacup to the ground, covered his chest with one hand, pointed at Wu Jiang with the other and scolded loudly: "What? You actually imprisoned the Khitan princess and wanted to do wrong to her? What the hell is going on? ”

Wu Jiang was so frightened that he quickly knelt on the ground, his whole body trembled, and he said tremblingly: "Uncle, you have to save your nephew!" Tonight, Long Anji is searching for this princess, and this matter depends on his uncle's rescue!!

Wu Sansi asked sharply again, "What the hell is going on?" You make it clear to me! ”

Wu Jiang slammed his head on the ground hard, wept bitterly and said in a panic: "My nephew really doesn't know the inside story!" Small table... A few days ago, a man sent me three sleeping Khitan women, saying that they were robbed on the road and asked me to stay... Retained, I saw that the three women were still beautiful, so I stayed... Hidden in the backyard of my house. But the three women woke up and refused to obey, I killed one by mistake in a fit of rage, and I sent the other one to Yirenfang Hualou for punishment, and finally the one could speak some Chinese, and she claimed to be the Khitan princess Azina. I realized that something was wrong, and I didn't dare to act rashly, and I have been imprisoning him in the house. ”

Wu Sansi listened, the anger in his heart was really difficult to suppress, he took a step forward, kicked on Wu Jiang who was kneeling, and scolded: "You... You unassuming thing! It's really daring! Let me ask you, who sent you the three Khitan women? ”

Wu Jiang wiped his tears and said: "The nephew who came has never seen it, he only said that he was the old man of Yirenfang, and he specially honored the third daughter to me!" The nephew was confused for a while, and he left without thinking too much, who knows... Speaking of this, Wu Jiang was lying on the ground and crying silently.

Wu Sansi was about to have a seizure, and a servant ran into the door and knelt on the ground, panting and saying, "Liang... King Liang, no... Oh no, Long Ansi led hundreds of Yulin troops to surround the Liang Wangfu, saying that it was going to... To arrest Wu... Lord Wujiang, let's send people out as soon as possible! lest you be implicated! ”

When Wu Jiang heard the news, he howled loudly again, and hurriedly crawled in front of Wu Sansi, hugged Wu Sansi and cried loudly: "Uncle, save your nephew!" ”

Wu Sansi sighed, closed his eyes and said slowly to the servant outside the door: "Go to the side courtyard and invite Mr. Xue Liang here to discuss matters!" ”
