Chapter 57 Catch
As soon as General Chen heard that the emperor had summoned him to help, he didn't even bother to eat, and directly followed the commander of the guards into the palace.
Along the way, the commander of the guards had already told General Chen about the matter, and his expression was grim, and this matter was not simple.
"Tonight, you can't let your guard down, can you gather all the guards in the palace?"
The commander of the guards nodded again and again, "It's been summoned, and I'm waiting at the guard." ”
"It doesn't matter during the day, just let a small detachment of people go to patrol immediately, and the rest of the people sleep in the house, and at night they are in good spirits and catch thieves together."
General Chen's words were sonorous and powerful.
"Arrange fifty guards for each palace, drain the water inside and outside the palace, and let them whistle and ask for support whenever there is a situation."
Thirty people in one palace? I'm afraid it's not enough.
His face was embarrassed, and he stopped talking: "General." ”
Old General Chen stopped, "What's the matter?" ”
"There are so many palaces in the palace, are there enough people?"
"I'm missing this guy?" General Chen was a little shocked.
"No, it's not, my people, when your noble son and Mu Chengchuan left, they took a lot of them, and there are more than a thousand people left here."
"Don't panic, I'm just calling someone in."
……
Ruan Linlang didn't dare to move around in the palace, especially Guan Xiao's nerves, pretending to be a ghost all day long.
"Miss, I'm afraid, you say, will the flower thieves come to me at night? I'm still so young, I don't want to die yet, I heard that the palace maid died so miserably last night......"
The noisy voice kept ringing in Ruan Linlang's ears, and she was annoyed like pulling out a flower thief and beating her severely.
"Don't worry, you open the door now and take a look, all the houses that live in them are surrounded by guards, our palace is watched inside and out, no matter how bad it is, there is still a patrol team that appears outside in a quarter of an hour, General Chen is in the palace, and things will not happen again."
Guan Xiao really opened the door and looked at the guards gathered around, and then he was a little relieved.
"Don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case! Why did this kind of thing happen when Young Master Chen left? She tugged at her sleeves tightly.
"Why don't you say that this happened after we entered the palace?" Ruan Linlang raised her eyebrows, and what she said was heartless.
She hesitated and nodded, "It seems to be too." ”
"Miss, aren't you afraid?"
"I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid, what's the use of being in a hurry, what should come will still come, and what shouldn't come will naturally not fall on you." She habitually touched her ears.
This is a well-founded conclusion that has been reached.
And next to them is the palace where Mu Chengyue is located.
"Niangniang, now the palace is full of guards, and not only that, but General Chen also brought the soldiers into the palace."
The maid spoke eloquently.
Mu Chengyue leisurely ate the osmanthus rice balls in the bowl, and when she heard this, she was slightly surprised.
"Soldiers? What did the emperor call? ”
"The emperor knew and didn't stop it."
"It's such a big fuss, the emperor's action is quite good, it seems that we have to move faster."
"Now every house that is inhabited is guarded by guards." The maid was a little worried.
"So what, the action is tonight, and it can't be delayed." Mu Chengyue's eyes flashed with a hint of ruthlessness, as long as this person died, she felt comfortable. There are not many people in this world who can make her uncomfortable.
Of course, the person who made her most uncomfortable was dead.
At night, everyone had to be ordered that if they were not guards, they were not allowed to go out and could only stay in their rooms.
"General, you say, we are moving so much tonight, will the flower thieves come out after they find out?" The commander of the guards wanted him to come out, but he was afraid that if he didn't come out, everyone would waste a game in vain.
Old General Chen also patrolled the forest with everyone, and there was no arrogance at all.
"Yes, with his modus operandi, this person pursues excitement, and so many people will only provoke his desire to win even more."
Guan Xiao didn't dare to be alone in the house, the night was still very long, she was afraid that she couldn't sleep, so she had to stay in Ruan Linlang's house, because of the relationship between master and servant, she couldn't sleep in Ruan Linlang's bed.
"You, you, why are you less daring than me." Ruan Linlang personally poured her a cup of tea.
"Thank you, miss." The warm water penetrated into her stomach and made her feel much more comfortable.
"Going to sleep with me tonight?" Ruan Linlang asked with one hand supporting her head and blinking.
She was a little embarrassed and hurriedly said: "How can a maid sleep with her master, I don't dare to lend me a hundred guts." ”
"Hahahaha, you don't even have the guts now."
Guan Xiao pouted.
As everyone knows, at this time, the man in black has unknowingly sneaked into the top of their roof, eavesdropped on them, and looked at the guards around them.
Throw the smoky incense you brought with you next to each of them for a second! Everyone fell!
Inside the house, Ruan Linlang, who was coaxing her to sleep, heard the movement outside, and was just about to get up when a dark shadow appeared in front of her.
She was stunned for a moment, and then quickly reacted What is this not a flower thief? The heart couldn't help but accelerate, and cold sweat began to break out in the palms of his hands.
"How did you get in? I'm going to sleep. ”
"Ruan Linlang?" The flower thief asked.
She glanced at the sleeping person on the bed, and the steady breathing made her feel very uneasy, how could this guy sleep so quickly and so soundly!
"My young lady is asleep."
Ruan Linlang carefully moved to the incense burner in front of the bed step by step.
"Don't move! When death is on the verge of death, do you dare to be hard-mouthed? ”
With her hands behind her back, she took something out of her sleeve and threw it into the incense burner, and the white smoke rising from her mouth made Ruan Linlang see a glimmer of hope.
"There are so many soldiers and guards outside, how did you get in?"
"Carving insect skills is not enough to mention"
Ruan Linlang swallowed her saliva unconsciously, took a few deep breaths, and tried to keep herself calm. "Do you believe it or not? As soon as I call, the guards and patrolling soldiers at the palace gate will come in and arrest you. ”
"Do you think I'll let you live even if I hadn't touched you?"
The pupils in Ruan Linlang's eyes gradually dilated, could it be that he was going to die again?
"I ......"
The flower thief took several steps forward, and Ruan Linlang retreated again and again.
"I'm telling you, don't come here!" His voice unconsciously became a little louder.
The equipment that entered the door was silent, and it was thought that it was fainted by the flower thief.
The flower thief hadn't taken a few steps when he suddenly felt weak under his feet and suddenly knelt on the ground.
"What's going on?"
Ruan Linlang saw that this matter was still saved, so she stepped forward and boldly kicked him in the shoulder, and the flower thief fell to the ground.
He hurriedly opened the door and looked on the ground, and sure enough, it was a flower thief who had been knocked unconscious, and she ran out of the palace gate to inform the guards and soldiers.
Everyone knew about this incident, and quickly told the emperor that the flower thief had been caught.
