Chapter 181: Questioning

Lu Chengxiu raised his eyes at the moment, and did not intend to let go of the slightest flickering words that Lu Guitang might have.

Who knew that he bumped into it, but it was Lu Guitang with a lazy and smiling expression, and only heard Lu Guitang's firm words: "I don't know." ”

Lu Chengxiu shook the sleeves of his robe, he really wanted to strangle him.

But I heard Lu Guitang patiently explain a few words: "When I walked here, I saw such a scene, and I was also taken aback, eh? Brother Huang wasn't scared. ”

Lu Chengxiu stared slightly, and naturally guessed that the deaths of these dozens of people were inseparable from Lu Guitang, but he also knew that he was still maintaining a harmonious atmosphere with himself at the moment, and if he really tore his face, it would be bad.

Thinking of this, Lu Chengxiu's face pulled again, and Fang Cai's demeanor had been hidden by him, and he regained his stability: "It's okay, but I don't know where these soldiers are, and how can there be so many casualties." ”

"This ...... I'm afraid I have to ask General Yuan. ”

As Lu Guitang said this, he slowly paced to the side of a soldier next to him and stood still, and before the soldier could react, the waist card on his body had already been hooked by Lu Guitang's hand.

Lu Chengxiu and Yuan Changxin were both stunned, but they didn't expect Lu Guitang to make such a move.

I saw that the waist card in Lu Guitang's hand was shining under the moonlight, and Yuan Changxin's eyes flashed brightly.

There are three big characters embossed on it - garrison camp.

This is Yuan Changxin's soldier.

Lu Guitang hooked the corners of his mouth, although the lazy smile on his face had not changed, the starlight in his eyes was clearly visible, and he only listened to him: "This king wants to ask, why are these soldiers under General Yuan not staying in the garrison camp well, and they want to run around this street, what is their intention?" ”

Even though the night was dark, Yuan Changxin's face was still darker than the night.

He and Lu Chengxiu were waiting for the 500-strong armor army at the gate of the Imperial City Palace, who knew that there was no one left and right, so they drove their horses to check, who knew that what they saw would be such a scene.

Now that he didn't have a good word with Lu Chengxiu, Yuan Changxin naturally didn't dare to talk nonsense, so he had to say: "The humble post is naturally under the order, and there is military affairs in the body." ”

Tonight's incident was bumped into by Lu Guitang, and it was difficult to clean up the matter no matter what, so he could only say that he acted on military orders, so that Ning Guogong could find an excuse to prevaricate in the future.

Besides, tonight's plan is indeed Ning Guogong's intention.

Lu Guitang looked at the two of them quietly, and saw through it but didn't say it: "Ordered? ”

It is clear that it means to ask the end.

Yuan Changxin hesitated, and hurriedly looked at Lu Chengxiu's expression, and saw that he bowed slightly, so he took out a tiger talisman from his arms, stretched out his hand, and sent it to Lu Guitang.

Lu Guitang didn't reach out to pick it up, only glanced at it, and then raised his eyebrows with interest: "Tiger Fu? ”

"But as far as this king knows, hasn't this tiger talisman been in the hands of Ning Guogong all along, according to this, tonight's movement, General Yuan is at the behest of Ning Guogong?"

Lu Guitang stretched out his hand and pointed at the hundreds of armor soldiers waiting on the side as he asked, and the meaning of inquiry in his tone was slightly reduced.

"Nature." Lu Chengxiu finally spoke, and his words were as deep as one, "Otherwise, who else does the fourth brother think will be able to mobilize the strength of the garrison battalion?" ”

Lu Guitang was silent, took two more steps towards Lu Chengxiu, and in an instant, the two brothers looked at each other, taking in each other's expressions.

After a long time, I only heard Lu Guitang smile: "Naturally, it is Ning Guogong." ”

Yuan Changxin saw that the wit in the words of the two brothers had reached this level, and he was also clever in his heart, and hurriedly explained: "Your Royal Highness King Xian, don't misunderstand, the prince of the country is thinking that there will be many people at the palace banquet tonight, and in order to protect the safety of the emperor and the courtiers, he ordered the humble duty to transfer troops into the palace." ”

Lu Guitang turned his head sideways to look at him, and his tone was full of interest: "Oh? Did this king say that he had misunderstood something? ”

Yuan Changxin choked, and suddenly felt that his words were suspicious of "there are no silver three hundred taels here", so he simply shut up.

Lu Chengxiu retracted his gaze and smiled rarely: "It's indeed as General Yuan said, but I didn't expect these people to be assassinated here, it's a strange thing." ”

Lu Guitang lowered his eyes and looked at the dozens of corpses that fell at his feet, as if he was looking at the most ordinary objects in the world, and said lightly: "I think they did something they shouldn't have done, which led to the murder." ”

Lu Chengxiu froze and raised his eyes to look at him, but saw Lu Guitang waving his hand, as if he was about to leave.

"Isn't the fourth brother drunk, where is this going?"

The lazy voice came back: "Now that the wine has woken up, it is estimated that the palace banquet has not dispersed, and I will go to join in the fun." After saying this, his footsteps suddenly paused: "I see that the emperor's wine is almost sober, why don't you go back together." ”

Lu Chengxiu smiled: "Okay." ”

He hurriedly followed, and whispered in Lu Guitang's ear: "But the tiger talisman was not found out of Brother Wei's arms, and the fourth brother is probably very disappointed." The corners of his mouth condensed a confident smile, and it didn't matter whether Lu Guitang answered or not, he only said: "Actually, what Yuan Changxin said tonight is true." ”

Lu Guitang suddenly froze, looked at him with a straight expression, and saw that the man was lonely and self-explanatory, and what he said didn't seem to be a lie.

He retracted his gaze, and also pressed the waves that surged slightly in his heart, and smiled lightly: "That's naturally the best." ”

Seeing the two brothers walking towards the palace gate, Yuan Changxin's brows were simply twisted into a pimple, but they were brothers who met each other and smiled, and they classified tonight's events as what they saw and heard when they were drunk and walking, what about himself?

Yuan Changxin looked at the dozens of corpses around him, clenched his fists heavily, he still had to find out how these people died!

"What's going on?"

Yuan Changxin asked a soldier closest to him.

The little soldier had already been frightened, and when Yuan Changxin asked in an angry tone, he was even more frightened, and only stumbled and said, "Yes...... General, general, is ......"

"It's a ghost, General!" Before the former could finish speaking, a small soldier next to him answered.

Yuan Changxin was puzzled when he heard this, and looked at everyone's expressions for a while before he asked again: "Ghost?" ”

"Yes, General, it's a ghost, it's a ghost!"

"That ghost shadow is standing next to His Royal Highness King Xian!"

"It's a ghost, otherwise how could he have killed so many of our brothers quietly!"

……

For a while, the gossip voice was remembered in Yuan Changxin's ears, and the noise made his brain buzz, and after a long time, Yuan Changxin shouted angrily: "Shut up, where did the ghost come from, what the hell is going on!" ”

He pointed to a small soldier in the distance, and the man looked a little calmer than the others.

"General, tonight the Lieutenant received your military order, and ordered us to march to the Imperial City, who knew that we had come here, and the brothers smelled a smell of blood behind them, and looked back to see that thirty or forty brothers had died. The lieutenant asked who was responsible, and in an instant he died in front of us. ”
