At this time, I saw the fourteenth prince smile slightly, turn around and slap his palm a few times very elegantly outside the main hall. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Immediately, four patriotic soldiers came in from outside the door, carrying a large mahogany box into the main hall together, and with heavy steps, they slowly passed in front of the guests on both sides, and carried them towards the fourteenth prince.

At this time, this mahogany box was like a magnet that attracted everyone's curious eyes.

Even if the entire wooden box was made of gold, its value would not surpass that of the eighth prince. Therefore, the wooden box is definitely a more valuable item than gold.

Everyone was secretly nervously speculating about what kind of valuable gift was in this wooden box.

The wooden box moved less than five steps into the main hall, and suddenly, something flew in from outside the door, and popped on top of the wooden box.

Everyone was amazed and looked beyond the wooden box. Some people also turned their heads to look out the door, wondering what was happening.

The four soldiers hurriedly put down the wooden box, and when they turned their heads, it turned out that it was a short black iron arrow tied to the box, and a folded piece of silk paper was tied to the handle.

The four soldiers were stunned and cried out, "There are assassins!" Protect the Prince! At the same time, they all quickly turned outward, and their bodies were halfway between the door and the fourteenth prince.

At this time, there was chaos in the main hall. The princely guards got up and left their seats, and hurriedly jumped in front of their respective masters to protect them.

Ming Yuming and Zhu An also stood in front of Ming Zhu Gong. Seeing this, Feng Dan Muxun and the others took an arrow step and jumped in front of the steps to protect Ming Zhugong and the others. Hua Meng rushed out the door, intending to chase down the Assassin.

The women's seats in the West District are even more chaotic. Most of those women didn't know martial arts, and they were already trembling with fear from the flying arrow. There are only a few who know martial arts, and they still maintain a calm and reserved appearance on the surface.

"Protect the princess!" The fourteenth prince ordered the guards beside him.

One of the guards hesitated for a moment, but under the majestic gaze of the Fourteenth Prince, he dodged and jumped into the Western District. The other princes and princes naturally also ordered guards to protect the princess and county lord. At this time, everyone can't take care of the defense of men and women. Immediately, four or five guards broke into the West End. The female guests felt a little calmer and gradually regained their calm.

The people outside the hall of the Dragon Yin Pavilion had no idea what was going on inside the hall, and they were originally drinking tea, eating melons and fruits, or talking softly in their respective seats. They also talked about who was more handsome, whose gifts were more valuable, who was more worthy of Miss Ming Zhu, and so on.

Hearing that "there are assassins" coming from the main hall, they were also a little inexplicable, and they were at a loss, so they got up and left their seats, looked around, looked left and right, and shouted:

"What assassin?"

"Who are the Assassins?"

"Where are the Assassins?"

"Where is the Assassin?"

As a result, there is chaos outside. There were thousands of people sitting outside, and so many people were in chaos, and the chaos was even worse than inside.

When Hua Meng came to the door, he looked up and saw a chaotic crowd of people, full of voices, where there was no trace of the assassin. At this point, the assassin had either disappeared into the chaotic crowd or had already run out of the Kirin Courtyard.

"Guard the door! Watch out for the Assassins! Hua Meng gave a few words to Mao Yong and the others, and then turned around and went back to the main hall.

Mao Yong agreed, and took dozens of family members to protect the door.

When Hua Meng returned to the main hall, he saw that the arrow was still stuck in the box. He walked up to the wooden box in three steps and two steps, pulled the arrow from the box, held it in his palm and turned it around a few times, and looked at it carefully. The arrow was not long, it was only a foot long, and the arrow was cold and shining, and it was extremely sharp. It should be a Hidden Arrow.

Untied the piece of silk paper from the shaft of the arrow, and looked at it, there were more than a dozen words written crookedly on it: "Surrender the Book of Heaven within three days." Otherwise, wait for the body of this person to be collected. ”

"What's written on it?" The fourteenth prince couldn't help but ask in a deep voice.

Hua Meng passed the Book of Arrows to the Fourteenth Prince through several soldiers. The fourteenth prince took the book, held it in his hand and took a quick glance, his face changed after reading it, he gasped, and muttered to himself, "Who did the assassin capture?" ”

The eighth prince took the arrow book from the fourteenth prince, looked at it twice, frowned, and asked puzzledly, "There are so many people outside, how did the assassin shoot this arrow?" ”

Wen Quhou took the arrow, looked down at the arrow hole and arrow marks on the box, raised his eyes and glanced at the door, pointed out the door and analyzed: "Judging from the angle and distance from which this hidden arrow flies, the assassin must be mixed in with the guests, and the position he is sitting in should be directly in front of the gate, no more than fifty steps away from the gate. ”

Wu Yanghou raised his hand and touched his nose and asked, "There are thousands of guests outside, how can an assassin arrest people in so many places without being detected?" Didn't he lie and threaten? Besides, how could an assassin catch and fire arrows at the same time, this is not logical! ”

Feng Dan said, "That assassin should have captured people first, and then mixed in with the guests to release arrows. As he spoke, he kept clenching his fists, his knuckles creaking,

"Grandpa don't worry." Ximen Liu took a step forward, stretched out his hand and drew a circle in the main hall, comforting Ming Zhu fairly, "I counted, the important guests are all here, and the assassins should not have caught any useful people in their hands." Or maybe he's just making false intimidations. ”

The big bosses of the four major businesses and the sons all hung their heads and kept silent. At any time, once an incident related to the Book of Heaven occurs, he will not be able to escape suspicion. So it's useless for them to say anything, it's better not to say anything.

The sleeve arrows and arrow books were finally passed to the Ming Zhu Gong. At this time, Ming Zhu Gong's face turned pale with anger. The Assassin had the audacity to write an arrow at him in such a way in front of a large number of distinguished guests on his birthday, and he did not give him any face.

Ming Zhu sighed, his voice hoarse and slightly sad, and said with guilt: "It is really my great sin for the distinguished guests to be so frightened in my dream island!" He turned to Hua Meng and said, "You must strengthen the defense of the Qilin Courtyard and ensure the safety of the princes, princesses and other VIPs." Also, find out who was captured by the Assassins. Be sure to catch the Assassin! ”

"Yes! Please rest assured! I make sure you are safe! Hua Meng agreed.

The fourteenth prince glanced at Mingyu, and saw that Mingyu's face was a little pale, his eyes were a little dazed, and his expression was a little trance, so he waved his hand to Ming Zhu Gong and Hua Meng to stop it, and said worriedly: "Ming Zhu Gong doesn't have to blame himself, and he doesn't need to worry about our safety. Your safety is a cause for concern, as the Assassins are here for you. Please strengthen the vigilance in the prefecture. ”

The eighth prince also gently comforted: "Ming Zhu Gong doesn't have to worry about our safety. The most important thing now is to find out who the assassin really is and where he is hiding. ”

Hong Yu stood beside the fourteenth prince, glanced at Ming Zhugong, glanced at the whole audience, raised his hand and swiped into the air, and said slowly: "I guess it was the chameleon tiger who committed the crime!" ”

"Chameleon?" The guests who came later had never heard this name, and they were a little inexplicable, and they all turned their heads to look at Hong Yu.

"Yes." Hong Yu raised his eyebrows, his eyes lit up, he waved his hand, and said: "The Chameleon Tiger is a thief with high martial arts, excellent light skills, and good at disguise!" ”

When the women in the West District heard this name, they were already a little talkative, but now after listening to Hong Yu's explanation, they were even more frightened, and some even screamed quietly...
