Led by the axe to the palace of the county, I saw many guards who had been put down. I think it was the axe that smelled from his brother that we were coming in the evening, so he set it up in the house.

"It's really unfortunate that the two flag masters chose to enter the mansion tonight, the four princes rarely return to the mansion, but they stay in the mansion for the past two days." The axe led the way, "He also invited the poison immortal who disappeared in the rivers and lakes back then, and refined medicine in the Danfang of Fuzhong every day. The subordinates wanted to go out to report to you, but the four princes strictly sealed all the doors in the mansion, large and small, and invited the guards of Prince Huan's mansion to let them monitor every subordinate in the mansion. ”

"It's really hard for you, on the cusp of this kind of storm, you still spend so much effort to help us open the door." Duan Ming's tone was sincere, without the slightest hint of arrogance to his subordinates, "If you come in over the wall, you may make a lot of noise." ”

"Don't go over the wall!" The axe hurriedly said, "The walls of the palace are covered with ground thorns and iron nets. Even with the light skills of the two flag masters, I'm afraid that I won't be able to get cheap! ”

"The fourth prince has such a wit, wouldn't the third prince be even worse..."Duan Ming looked at Yu Yue in horror, "Yu Yue, you can gain such trust from the third prince, you really have worked hard." ”

Yu Yue, who was speechless all the way, suddenly stopped, and was silent for a long time, and he suddenly knelt down to me and Duan Ming: "If the two banner masters think that Yu Yue is still quite powerful, please let Yu Yue go back!" Now that the four princes are under martial law, it is already dangerous for him to come out and open the door for us, if he does not return for a long time, his subordinates are only afraid that he will expose his identity! ”

"-Brother!"

"Before the martial law in the palace of the county king, his subordinates came in with Miss Pei once, and his subordinates swore that they would definitely be able to lead the flag owner to find Miss Pei's residence!"

Duan Ming couldn't help it anymore, took a step forward and pulled up the Yue, and said with pity: "What are you talking about, it turns out that we didn't think about it." I want you brothers to separate and stay by the side of the two demonic figures to keep an eye on us. Axe, in order to avoid the detection of the four princes, you better go back quickly! ”

"Don't say anything, let's go!"

The axe wanted to say more, but when he saw that I had spoken, it was not easy to disobey. Only reluctantly glanced at his brother one last time, then turned around and ran into the depths of the night.

"Thank you, two flag masters!"

Duan Ming patted the Yue, and we headed into the depths of the Mansion again. The area of this palace is not very large, not to mention the prince's mansion, even half the size of the Lifu is not comparable. However, the roads here do not extend in all directions like normal courtyards, but rather twist and turn, and each courtyard is built in a normal way, if you are an outsider, you will inevitably get lost without guidance.

I looked at Yu Yue who was silently leading the way in front of me, and a kind of admiration mixed with distress and guilt arose in my heart for no reason.

"It's here!"

After walking silently for two incense sticks, Yu Yue finally pointed to a small house in front of him and stopped. I looked closely, and this little room was no different from the other small houses in the courtyard I passed along the way, and there was no one who was imprisoned or inhabited.

"Are you sure?"

Yu Yue nodded silently, her eyes shining with determination in the darkness. I turned my head and exchanged glances with Duan Ming, and the three of them walked towards the small room together.

There is no ** buried in the ground, and there are no cold arrows flying in the air. We walked into the courtyard and opened the door, and it was surprisingly calm and smooth all the way.

“… Mizusuni? ”

After closing the door, I called softly into the darkness, but received no response.

Duan Ming closed his eyes and stretched out his right hand, as if he was feeling the movement of the air in this room. After a moment, he opened his eyes and looked at me: "There is no one in this room. ”

I turned my head to look at Yu Yue, but I saw that in the moonlight through the paper window, his eyes were full of frustration and disbelief. However, this is not the time to blame and discuss, even if you can't find Shui Qing, at least you have to explore this room, even if you can find the slightest clue about Zhu Yutang's poison prescription, it's good.

The three of us nodded to each other, and each of us scattered to grope around the dark room. Yu Yue checked the closet, Duan Ming rummaged through the bookshelves, and I stood in front of the bed, clearly I could feel that this room must be occupied by someone on weekdays.

I grabbed the futon from the bed, leaned over to the tip of my nose and sniffed it gently. It was the illusion caused by excessive anticipation, and for a moment, I actually felt that the futon had a hint of watery smell.

I relieved my stupidity and took another deep breath - I can't be wrong, I have smelled this smell for more than a year, and it is the smell of the watery bed and wardrobe in the bedroom.

"Duan Ming, this-"

"—surround this house for me!"

The blood in my body froze suddenly, and I saw Duan Ming at the desk not far away casting a frightened look at me. His mind went blank, and his legs seemed to turn into two heavy logs in an instant.

Duan Ming silently rushed towards me, grabbing me in the air. I was thrown on the bed by him, and he rolled and curled behind the curtain of the tenon on the head of the bed. It dawned on me that a stiff stool had also shrunk behind the curtain at the end of the bed. One last glance back into the room, I caught a glimpse of Yu Yue having already slipped into the closet next to the bookshelf, carefully closing the small door of the small closet.

The door creaked open again, and I heard a group of people hurrying in, and the room was filled with bright yellow torch light.

Really. Sure enough, is it to invite you into the urn?

"Third brother..."

It's the voice of Miyaga. I held my breath for fear of making a noise. However, for a long time, I didn't hear a response from Gong Wei.

"Won't it be here?"

"Didn't you see the gate of your house and the unconscious guards along the way?" Gong Wei's slight voice was like a poisonous snake in the dark, "If you don't know where people are, how can you have such a comprehensive plan?" ”

I could almost hear my own heartbeat, and I turned my head slightly to look at Duan Ming at the head of the bed. But I saw him shrinking motionless in the dark, without even the muscles on his face, as if he had turned into a cold and hard stone statue.

"Third brother, could it be an inner ghost?"

I heard the sound of pages turning in the air, and then slowly stopped.

"Doesn't that woman make her bed on weekdays?"

I twitched almost instinctively, squinting at the inch-lit bed, and I saw myself grabbed the futon that had been made in a hurry.

Nightmarishly, I heard the sound of the palace curtain slowly approaching. Duan Ming on the other end had already clenched his sword, ready to make a move at any time.

"Third Highness!"

Outside, there was the sound of the cabinet door suddenly opening, the sound of something falling to the ground, followed by the exclamations of the crowd.

"-Cheng Yue? How could it be you! ”

"Your Highness... Slaves are here for you. I didn't panic too much when I heard the voice, "The slave is here to find out this woman for you." ”

"Bastard! Full of nonsense! Gong Yu shouted violently, "Sneaking into my palace late at night is sneaky, what are your intentions!" ”

"Third Highness, the sun and the moon can be learned, the slave is really dedicated to you!" Yu Yue fell to his knees with a thud, "The slave knows that you and the Fourth Highness are brothers and sisters, and the slave has never doubted the loyalty of the Fourth Highness to you. It's just that the Third Highness didn't leave this matter to the minions, so the minions had to pay more attention to the people under the Fourth Highnesses! ”

"It's ridiculous! Why should the king's men be heeded by you, a lowly slave? Gong Yu turned his head to Gong Wei and said, "Third brother, have you ever told this cheap slave about this incident?" If not, then not only did he sneak into my palace today, but he must have been by your side in the past! ”

"It is true that the Third Highness did not let the minions go through this. It's just that if the slave doesn't pay attention to everything for the master, won't he become a bound and ungrateful person! ”

"Dare to quibble! You're all still stunned about what you're going to do, and you won't take this for me—"

"-Fourth!"

I heard Gong Wei shouting at Gong Yu who wanted to take down the Yu Yue, and after a tormented silence, I heard him speak slowly again: "Forget it, maybe it's really a misunderstanding today." ”

"Third brother, he's obviously just-"

"—I said it was a misunderstanding." Gong Wei interrupted Gong Wei in a strong tone, "Cheng Yue, you go back with me, I have something to ask you." ”

I heard a loud voice, followed by the sound of a large group of people slowly leaving the room. Gong Hao seemed to stay until the end, kicked over a stool in a negative anger, and then threw his sleeves and left.

The door creaked shut, and the room was once again enveloped in oppressive darkness. After a long time, Duan Ming and I glanced at each other cautiously, and crawled out of bed with a blank movement.

"Duan Ming... him, he won't ......"

I didn't hear Duan Ming interrupt me and say comforting words as I expected. The thin moonlight sprinkled on his pale face, and his expression became even more shocked and terrifying.

Yes, Brother Axe Yue was the most effective commander under him, and now that something has happened, he is naturally more worried about the safety of Yue Yue than I do.

Seeing that he was stunned, I had no choice but to cheer myself up and pull him to the wall on the edge of the palace of the county. Sure enough, as the axe said, the floor under the wall was filled with sharp ground thorns, and once an intruder jumped in from the outside, it would trigger a mechanism and be heavily bound by the iron nets that swooped out from the left and right.

It took us nearly half an hour to disassemble the mechanism, and when we returned to the Taopin Building, it was already midnight. Wan Qiu took us into the room and told us that Aunt Hua had vacated a cellar in the building for Sarong to torture Zhu Yutang's medicine boy. At the moment, Sarong is busy torturing, Aunt Hua is in the front building, and Zhuo Ying has taken the tranquilizer and has already rested.

As a result, I became less and less distracted by a person to talk to. With Duan Ming briefly explaining what has happened these days and Zhuo Ying's identity, I am in a hurry to go back to the annex outside the city, so as not to be discovered by the eyes of the palace curtain and the palace hooves.

"Shall I send you?"

I stared at Duan Ming's clear gaze, and only after a long time did I slowly shake my head and show him a tired but reassuring smile. Too many things happened tonight, Zhuo Ying and Sarong in the Taopin Building need to take care of them, and at this moment, it is better for him to stay.

I returned to the deserted garden alone, and saw that the guards and eunuchs who had been tied up by us had fled at some point. I don't know how they will say to the emperor when they return to the palace... No matter what, Yu Yue is in a dangerous situation, and at this moment I am exhausted, my mind is in chaos, and I have no strength to worry about anything else......

"Lord Wen Qi is back, and the juniors have really been waiting for a long time."

I was startled, and looked up at the willow tree in front of me, only to see a tall figure dressed in a gray squirrel skin and looking like a scholar, falling from the tree like a ghost under the moon in the dark night.
