The atmosphere in the Qinzheng Hall was already tense, but the palace gate was not much better.

Zhao Zhao and Deng Xincheng Liang drove the carriage all the way through the snow, and they deliberately changed into the military uniforms of the Liang family, so that they could enter the palace smoothly.

But Fang Lu was secretly squatting in the dark waiting at this time, as long as there was a suspicious carriage approaching, they would step forward and pretend to be the Imperial Forest Army to check it.

When Zhao Zhao and the others' carriage entered their sight, one of Fang Lu's subordinates couldn't help but exclaim: "Steward Fang!" It's those two people! ”

Deng Xin and Cheng Liang had already seen all their faces by the Lu family's guards, but they didn't know that at this time, they followed Zhao Zhao to escort the corpse into the palace, but they just fell into the enemy's encirclement.

In order to prevent the Imperial Forest Army at the palace gate from seeing it, Fang Lu planned to wait for them to do it when they were about to step across the White Jade Bridge.

Liang Lin and Qin Yuandao carried the case in their arms and came with Yin Renzhao stepping on the snow, but the lively Chinese New Year's Eve feast in the city began, and the crowd bustled together, disrupting their progress.

"What now?" Yin Renzhao stopped in front of the crowd in Fang City, looked at the bustling crowd, and couldn't help but ask.

However, Liang Lin and Qin Yuandao also looked at the lively light market and frowned.

Today's Chinese New Year's Eve feast, the people naturally poured out of their nests, admired the flowers and lanterns, and gathered to see the prosperous fireworks set off in the palace.

For a time, the capital looked back at the embroidery. They couldn't go forward on horseback.

"Why don't we go down the barracks road? There is no market there, so it will save time to come. Liang Liang looked at Qin Yuandao and asked tentatively.

Since this afternoon, Liang Lin has looked at Qin Yuandao's style of practice, completely overturning Liang Lian's previous opinion of Qin Yuandao, and he has also habitually subconsciously asked Qin Yuandao's opinion.

Qin Yuandao sat on his horse, frowned at these crowds, closed his eyes and thought for a while, and a floor plan of Shangjing City appeared in his mind.

Then he shook his head and said, "No, let's get off the horse and walk over." ”

Liang Xiao had some doubts, and when he was about to ask him, Qin Yuandao looked at him again and explained: "Walking directly from here is closer to everything than riding a horse on a long road, besides, there are many families living there, and this is the time when they rushed to participate in the light market, so it seems that it is better to walk over from this side." ”

Liang Lian thought about it, he nodded, and then turned over and dismounted together, Yin Renzhao saw the two of them get off the horse, although he didn't know why he did this, Fangcaifang City was too lively, Yin Renzhao didn't hear anything clearly, but he was willing to follow them.

"Let's go, hurry up!" Although Yin Renzhao swore that he would follow them into the palace to expose Lu Gaohong, the sooner he arrived in the palace, the more uneasy Liang Liang became, and then pulled Yin Renzhao into the lively market, for fear that he would make something for them here.

Today's Shangjing is extremely lively, most of which is because I heard that the army of the Celestial Empire will attack Daliang in one fell swoop after the New Year, so I celebrated the joy of victory in advance.

Qin Yuandao shuttled between rouge gouache with a solemn expression, today's Chinese New Year's Eve Lantern Festival in Beijing, most of them are girls' families coming out to join in the fun, this kind of festival, naturally heavy makeup, dressed.

When many people saw Liang Lone, they would whisper in a whisper, and for a while, the sound of silk and bamboo was endless.

But the two of them stuck to their hearts, pushed through the crowd one by one, and rushed to the palace.

Zhao Zhao drove the carriage, staring at the gate of the palace and running wildly, thinking that it was getting late at this time, and he was afraid that the palace Qinzheng Hall had undergone earth-shaking changes, and he didn't know what happened to Princess Jing and Princess Jing at this time, whether General Liang Lin had found evidence of Lu Gaohong's favoritism, although he was driving the carriage at hand, but he was still worried about other things in his heart.

The three of them looked around, their eyes glued to the gate of the palace in front of them, unaware that they had fallen into the trap of Fang Lu and the others.

"How much longer?" Deng Xin looked at the back of the carriage and felt that the road ahead was long, so he asked.

"It's coming!" Cheng Liang helped Zhao Zhao stabilize the carriage and took the time to reply to Deng Xin.

"Shall we come in later?" Deng Xin had some doubts, he couldn't enter just like this, how could he enter the palace with an inexplicable corpse?

Zhao Zhao couldn't answer them for a while, to be honest, he didn't have a bottom in his heart, he just listened to the wind and snow whistling in his ears, and his eyes stared straight ahead.

"General Zhao said yes, it must be!" Cheng Liang glanced at Zhao Zhao, and obviously felt that Zhao Zhao was not sure, but he still said this, and he didn't know whether to say it to Deng Xin or to himself.

The carriage was bumpy all the way, and Deng Xin simply stopped asking, and only cared about taking care of the corpse.

Fang Lu hid in the shadows, watching Zhao Zhao and the others enter his encirclement, and then he gave an order, and more than a dozen black-clothed people flew down on both sides of the roof, holding steel knives, to reunite Zhao Zhao and the others' carriage.

Zhao Zhao hurriedly stopped the carriage and looked at the group of black-clothed people with a solemn face, Deng Xin and Cheng Liang didn't react for a while, and hurriedly poked their heads out to look at them.

Seeing that they were surrounded by them, Fang Lu jumped out with a black cloth around him, walked up to Zhao Zhao triumphantly and said, "Even dare to grab our things, it's really boring!" ”

Judging from Fang Lu's attitude, they had done a lot of burning, killing and looting in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Zhao Zhao could naturally recognize who they were, and now that they were surrounded, he would not admit it, so he immediately jumped out of the carriage, clapped his hands and said to Fang Lu: "What's the point of being masked now?" Don't I recognize who you are? The corpse in the carriage was brought by me from the Prime Minister's Mansion! I really didn't expect that the Lu Prime Minister's Mansion, which is high up on weekdays, would raise a group of sanctimonious hypocrites! How? Now that you want to kill people, are you afraid that we will say it? ”

Deng Xin and Cheng Liang also jumped out of the carriage and stood by the side of the carriage, the corpses they had finally snatched were about to be sent to the palace, and it was impossible to say anything to let them snatch them.

Fang Lu smiled coldly: "I'm afraid that you have a life to know, but you don't have a life to say it!" ”

After speaking, Fang Lu waved his hand, and the black-clothed people surrounding them on both sides rushed towards them with knives in their hands.

"Presumptuous! This is the entrance to the palace! How dare you make a public disturbance! Zhao Zhao was reluctant to waste time, but he was also surprised why they had no fear.

"This is the palace! I'm going to kill you today! Fang Lu said unscrupulously, "Give me eight pieces of these three people!" ”

When he transported the corpse before, he was somewhat afraid of being discovered by others, but now that he has been discovered, Fang Lu has nothing to fear, Lu Gaohong usually calls for wind and rain in the court, and after King Jing and Liang Fengmian set out on the expedition, it is Lu Gaohong who has the final say, Fang Lu is not afraid that something will happen at all, in short, Lu Gaohong will do it in the end.

The dozen or so black-clothed people slashed over with knives, seeing that the posture was one of the best masters in Beijing, Lu Xiangfu was arrogant and lascivious, and he spared his life very much, and spent a lot of money to hire these people to come to the home and nursing home.

Deng Xin and Cheng Liang didn't have weapons in their hands, and they were so shocked with their bare hands that they didn't know what to do for a while, they never thought that Fang Lu would be so arrogant.

I heard Zhao Zhao sneer and told Deng Xin and Cheng Liang: "Protect the corpses, don't let them destroy or rob them!" ”

Fang Lu dared to do this now, if they didn't know it, they would directly destroy the corpse, so that no one would be able to recognize it.

Then a dark shadow flashed in front of him...... Feeling that a strong wind was blowing around, the fallen leaves and stones on the ground flew into the air, and a black shadow surrounded them, Deng Xin and Cheng Liang instinctively closed their eyes, but their bodies were tightly leaning next to the carriage, and the three of them went out lightly and simply, without any weapons.

I heard the black-clothed people surrounding let out a miserable scream, which was terrible, and then there was a chaotic sound of falling to the ground.

When I opened my eyes again, I saw swords scattered all over the ground, and more than a dozen black-clothed people who fell to the ground on their backs - each with wounds on their bodies, curled up on the ground and unable to get up, and the remaining Xia Lu and the two black-clothed people behind him were so shocked that they retreated one after another, not daring to step forward......

It turned out that Zhao Zhao had been prepared, and when he left, he hid dozens of silver needles in his sleeves, Fang Lu and the others saw that they were unarmed, so they naturally felt that they had their hands on it, but they never thought that Zhao Zhao would insert the silver needles into their important acupuncture points in the next second, and now they couldn't move when they fell to the ground, and they screamed blindly.

Deng Xin and Cheng Liang have not been touched by the man in black The corners of their clothes have not yet been touched by the man in black, they only know that in the blink of an eye, Zhao Zhao has already solved half of the people, he doesn't know what happened just now, Zhao Zhao in front of him is still standing in the posture just now, his hair is rising and falling in the cool mountain breeze, and he doesn't know when he is covered with a layer of cold air, and he shuddered unconsciously when he saw it.

Deng Xin and Cheng Liang only knew at this time that in Liang Fengmian's secret camp at that time, Zhao Zhao learned hidden weapons, but because after entering the military camp, he danced knives and guns, and the hidden weapons could not be put on the table, so no one mentioned them again.

Fang Lu and the two guards behind him trembled, looked at their companions babbling all over the ground, and pointed at Zhao Zhao tremblingly and said, "You... How daring! Tell the Prime Minister when I get back! You won't live tomorrow! ”

Zhao Zhao smiled coldly, it has come to this point, and there is still time to fake the tiger here.

Seeing Zhao Zhao smiling coldly, Fang Lu couldn't help but feel a cold air penetrating his spine behind him, Zhao Zhao slowly walked towards Fang Lu step by step, Fang Lu couldn't help shouting: "This is the gate of the palace!" What do you want to do! ”

"Do what?" Zhao Zhao asked rhetorically, "Why didn't you think this was the gate of the palace?!" ”

It was the first time that Zhao Zhao had been forced into such a situation, and now that he had opened the killing ring, he would not let Fang Lu go.

And Deng Xin and Cheng Liang also let out a bad breath, and they were chased by Fang Lu to run in Beijing, and now they are finally relieved!
