"Who are you?"

Huang An broke off and quickly protected Zhu Qiyue, but his slender figure rested in front of that strong man, he was simply a chicken!

I saw it very clearly, that guy was a head taller than Master Liang, and as for the waistline, it had to be as thick as Master Liang's.

In the darkness, the man was silent, and his body was like a ghost.

Outside the corridor, the rain gradually faded, the thunder gradually stopped, and only the lightning still polished the sky from time to time.

Suddenly, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps in the corridor, and through the light from the fleeting lightning, Zhu Qiyue saw the appearance of the person who came, it turned out to be the little guards who went and returned!

"There are thieves!" Huang An shouted.

The huge figure in the corridor moved quickly outward, but the little guard's reaction was very agile, and in the blink of an eye, many figures rushed outward.

Outside the corridor, the cries of the little guards when they were in pain rang out one after another.

When another lightning bolt lit up, Zhu Qiyue found several guards lying on the ground and rolling, obviously being thrown by a strong man, and the strong man was still holding a guard in his hand at the moment and was about to fall out.

One-on-one, it's not an order of magnitude at all, it's strange not to be thrown all over the ground to find teeth!

"Let's go up together and hold his limbs!" Zhu Qiyue shouted.

It doesn't matter if people are small or weak, as long as there are many people and a smart mind to connect everyone's strength together, its power should not be underestimated.

After a deafening cheer, the outside of the corridor gradually fell silent.

A few small guards got a few palace lamps out of nowhere. Looking through the light, I saw more than a dozen small guards hanging on the strong man's body, even though he grinned and struggled desperately, he couldn't move for half a minute.

Tang Ji held the terrifying horse lance, stunned in the corridor, obviously, in the darkness there was no friend or foe, he didn't dare to dance rashly with the big guy in his hand. At this moment, he put down the horse lance, stepped forward quickly, stood on tiptoe and strangled the strong man's neck, which became the last straw that crushed the strong man.

The strong man fell on his back and was firmly pressed to the ground.

"Who? Hold it! ”

"Stop!"

In the distance, there was a loud shout, and countless figures were swimming like worms, mixed with the shadows of the lights.

There were only scattered raindrops in the air, and the thunderstorm had passed.

The movement here obviously alarmed the entire palace, and for a while, the internal office, the palace, the wings, and the cross-courtyard were lit up one after another, and the sound of footsteps and inquiries came faintly, and it seemed that many people rushed to this side.

Footsteps sounded, and a pair of adult guards escorted four people with big ties to the verandah.

"Wow, there's another one here!" A leader dressed in a thousand households looked at the strong man on the ground and shouted, "Tie up!" ”

Several adult guards rushed forward and tied the strong man very skillfully. The group of little guards who pressed on the strong man breathed a sigh of relief, got up and looked at the strong man like a zongzi, only to feel that the thrill of Fang Cai was like a dream, very unreal.

"You're finally here, it's still our young army at a critical juncture!"

The thousand households didn't pay attention to these little children, but walked straight to Zhu Qiyue and saluted.

"It's all the negligence of the guards, which frightened His Highness."

"It's okay!" Zhu Qiyue looked at the four "zongzi" brought in, and said suspiciously: "Who are they?" ”

"Look at the face, it seems to be a new servant." Qianhu pointed to the newly tied strong man, and continued: "Those four people were just caught running south and looking down, they must have been hiding nearby before, and they were in the same group as this person. ”

Zhu Qiyue was stunned for a moment, and then talked excitedly with the little guards beside him, as if he didn't think that Fang Cai's encounter was in any danger.

"What's wrong? Qi Yue! What about Qi Yue? ”

King Yue strode into the verandah, anxiously raising his eyes to look around, he was not calm at this time.

The inside and outside of the verandah are already brightly lit, and the solemn figures and slightly lowered faces make people think they have entered the puppet hall at first glance.

And the sparks beating everywhere, as well as the unkind gaze of the five "zongzi", cast an extremely strange color on this place.

"Father, the child is here!" Zhu Qiyue got out of the crowd, trotted to King Yue's side, hugged his father's arm and smiled: "It's fun!" Together with the young army, the child captured a man who was pretending to be a ghost. ”

King Yue breathed a sigh of relief, stretched out his hand to stroke his son's head, his face gradually became bloody, and said secretly: As long as his son is fine, as for whether those five people are pretending to be ghosts, there is no need to rush to conclusions.

The officials of the palace came over one after another, and when they saw that King Yue was present, they didn't dare to ask, so they stood there one by one, waiting for King Yue to speak.

King Yue only glanced at the five people who were kidnapped, and Huang An leaned over to King Yue and whispered in his ear. I saw that King Yue's face became more and more solemn.

At this time, Liang Gang flew over. Just now he waited left and right, and no one sent the wine for a long time, and when he was secretly scolding the bear children, he heard the shouting sound here, and the movement seemed to be very loud, so he rushed over. I circled around the five "zongzi" a few times, took a closer look, and even used massage techniques, and said: "His Royal Highness King Yue, these five people don't know martial arts." ”

Can't do martial arts?

King Yue's doubts were even more prevalent. Since the five of them don't know martial arts, this matter is one step away from the suspicion of murder······ No, I'm afraid it won't be that simple!

"Quickly bring the five back to the trial division for interrogation!" King Yue said in a deep voice.

"Yes!" The relevant personnel responded in unison.

King Yue didn't dare to be careless, and took his son back to Changchun Palace with his own hands.

"Qi Yue!"

The princess had already been informed of the situation by the verandah, and the princess was too frightened and anxious, and when she saw her son, she hugged him, and tears fell down.

"Why is the mother crying so sadly?" Zhu Qiyue struggled out of his mother's arms for a while, and finally showed his head, and said in surprise.

King Yue hurriedly glanced at the princess. The princess suppressed the sadness in her heart, sobbed for a while, and finally held back her tears. "There was a lot of movement in the mansion, and the concubine was scared."

"Qi Yue, go and rest." King Yue said warmly, and then ordered the maids to retreat.

Only the king and the princess were left in the main hall, and the bright moon was already hanging high outside the door, but the hall was still full of depression caused by thunderstorms. The princess was crying, "Is it true that today's events are related to the Forbidden City?" ”

The princess's question was like a thunderclap, and after King Yue was stunned for a long time, she noticed that her words were taboo. "Don't talk nonsense, don't even think like that!"

The princess was still immersed in her own emotions, "Is Qi Yue really a prodigy?" Hmph, 'The heroes of the world, Jiang Zuo's beautiful husband', the words of the warlock, are not enough to believe, but some people want to believe it! She decided that what happened to her son today must have something to do with the name that someone else had placed on him.

King Yue frowned slightly, he felt that many things should be explained clearly to the princess, otherwise, if he continued to be so confused, something big would happen.

"Hearing is false, seeing is believing, there are not a few people who have seen Qi Yue, whether it is a prodigy or not, they know it in their hearts."

The princess was shocked, yesterday the two palaces gave a reward, and the situation of Qi Yue's witty rescue came to mind, which did not aggravate the worry in her heart, but only increased her anger.

Hmph, what's wrong with the prodigy? Who's in the way!

Thinking so in his heart, he couldn't agree that his son was a prodigy: "However, Qi Yue doesn't read much, how can a seven-year-old child's knowledge be as mysterious as the legends outside?" ”

"You've forgotten someone, Aomatsu Dao Chief!"

Of course, the princess knew that Aomatsu Daochang. Qingsong Daochang, who traveled all over the world, suddenly went to the Yue Palace's seclusion for a year, and left quietly at the beginning of this year, and was never heard from again. At first, she was quite puzzled by the mysterious arrival of Daoist Qingsong, but she never asked. She wasn't in the mood to dwell on that issue anymore at the moment.

"After entering the mansion, Daoist Qingsong only saw Qi Yue alone, so he taught Qi Yue knowledge?" The princess looked surprised.

"The insight of Daoist Qingsong is not inferior to Liu Bowen, who was wiser than Zhuge back then, but he is very disdainful of scholars who study to death. Think about how many fascinating stories Daoist Qingsong has told Qi Yue in a year? Learning is in the story, which is the real knowledge of governing the country and leveling the world, as well as the knowledge of improvisation. Many of the things we encounter in our daily lives can be found in similar cases in stories. ”

I see!

A gleam of excitement flashed in the princess's eyes, but after a moment, deeper doubts rose in her heart.

"Qi Yue is still young, and the knowledge he can accept is limited after all, so sometimes, his knowledge is better than that of adults, and more often, he is just a child of the same age as his peers."

King Yue's words erased the last trace of doubt that remained in the princess's heart.

"Today's matter must be investigated!" The princess's rare high voice surprised King Yue, obviously, she wanted to find out the truth and eliminate the danger faced by her son, but King Yue's side knock did not shake her determination to cultivate her son's success.

"Check, of course you have to check!"

As soon as King Yue's words fell, I saw Huang An rush in.

"Your Highness, something is wrong, those five people······ He's dead! ”
