Tao Mingxi only felt that he couldn't lift any strength in his body at this time, and his head was dizzy After hearing Zhu'er say such a fire, he lay on the bed again and fell asleep.

Zhu'er saw that Tao Mingxi was unconscious again, and hurriedly ran to the study to tell Xing Tianze, and Wuxian said that it was normal, this was the effect of the Heart Devouring Gu in absorbing the poison of soul chasing in her body, and there might be several more times like this in the future.

Xing Tianze instructed Zhu'er to take care of Tao Mingxi, and to report any situation, if he was not in the palace, he would come without a trace.

Suddenly, a guard came to report that Yin Pingzhen was still in the court, and it was expected that he would be able to arrive in the capital at noon tomorrow.

Yin Pingzhen is one of the first fierce generals in Xingzhaoguo, and at the age of 26, he has collected thousands of military exploits. Five years ago, he led an army of 250,000 to conquer the land of the Southern Barbarians, and now he has finally returned triumphantly.

What makes Xing Tianze even happier is that Yin Pingzhen is his right-hand man like Traceless.

The reason why he wanted to avoid the emperor everywhere before was because Xing Tianze had no real power in his hands, and Yin Pingzhen came back now to make up for this vacancy.

Traceless not only did not show any joy, but his brows were tightly furrowed, five years is enough to change many things, and it is enough to change a person's mind.

The Yin family itself is a big family in the criminal Zhao country, and within five generations, he has been promoted to the position of generalissimo of soldiers and horses, and compared to his ancestors, Yin Pingzhen is better than the blue.

Just as Traceless was thinking about this, another guard ran in to report that a secret prison in the mountains southeast of the capital had been blown up, and six of the prisoners had disappeared without a trace.

The smile on Xing Tianze's face instantly froze when he heard this, As the Fifth Prince, the things he could touch were by no means comparable to ordinary officials.

He is even more aware of the prisoners held in the prison, and he was captured on the battlefield with Wuxian on his expedition to the land of Baiyue many years ago.

Those six people were all first-class masters without exception, and Xing Tianze wanted to take them under his command, but he didn't succeed.

"Interesting, the prisoner who has been imprisoned for many years actually escaped from prison?" Traceless hands crossed together, two thumbs kept spinning crossed.

"Lord Qiqi, the new Tai Lieutenant Dong En was assassinated in the mansion half an hour ago, and all the two hundred and thirty-one people in the entire Dong Mansion were killed." A guard hurried into the study to report.

Xing Tianze's brows furrowed in an instant, Dong En was still in the court yesterday and reprimanded him for being strong, and he was assassinated today?

Wuxian also reacted at the first time, someone must have wanted to blame Xing Tianze, because he was the only one who was the most suspicious.

"With so many things happening one after another, this game of chess is really getting more and more interesting." Traceless waved his hand and motioned for the two guards to step back first.

Xing Tianze picked up the teacup and took a deep sip of tea, so many things could break out at such a moment, it was undoubtedly a big deal by his imperial brother.

Suddenly, another guard ran in to report: "Lord Qiqi, the queen mother was kidnapped in the palace, and the emperor urgently summoned you to enter the palace immediately to discuss countermeasures." ”

"Without a trace, you stay in the mansion and sit in the town, this king will go to see a few clowns who jump off the beam, how much flower wave do you want to burst!" Xing Tianze left the study with a wave of his hand.

Tapping the jade pendant in his hand, a smile appeared on Traceless's face, as if he was not worried about many things.

The palace has been surrounded by the Yulin Army from the inside and outside, the bright spears and swords are reflecting the cold light, and all the palace maids and eunuchs in the palace and even some unfavored concubines are undergoing strict interrogation.

If the ministers outside the palace want to enter the palace, they will have to go through several interrogations, and even Xing Tianze was allowed to enter the palace after being searched by two Yulin soldiers.

In the imperial study, the emperor was furious: "The palace is heavily guarded, and the four thieves are bold, what's the use of raising you waste?" ”

The ministers present were in a cold sweat when they were reprimanded, but none of them dared to stand up and refute it.

"Captain Dong was assassinated, and the queen was kidnapped by thieves in the harem, can you tell me what your role is?" The emperor slapped the table violently, and everyone present immediately knelt on the ground and did not dare to raise their heads.

As soon as Xing Tianze entered the study, the emperor directly interrupted his salute: "Don't make these useless things, the only person who can use Lao Wuzhen now is you, do you know where these thieves came from?" ”

Xing Tianze had already learned about what had happened on the way, the queen was drinking tea in the imperial garden, and suddenly four thieves climbed over the wall.

With lightning speed, he knocked out several guards and palace maids who were present at the time, and forcibly abducted the queen and left the palace.

"The emperor is angry, and his younger brother has just learned about this matter, and he has not sent anyone to investigate the reason." Xing Tianze replied respectfully.

"I don't want to know the reason, I just want to arrest them all and put them to death to quench the anger in my heart!" The emperor's chest kept rising and falling.

Xing Tianze didn't speak, what the emperor said was simple, the problem is that now he can't even know the identity of the thief, how can he dare to chase down with words?

Suddenly, a beautiful voice sounded in the imperial study: "You people are really interesting, you don't even know the whereabouts of others, and you dare to talk about Ling Chi's execution?" ”

Everyone present looked up, and even the Emperor got up from his chair to find the source of the voice.

Xing Tianze looked up slightly at the roof beam above the emperor's head, and a woman had already sat on it at some point.

Chang Feisan was draped behind his head, wearing lilac silk, and his face could be regarded as a country and a city, even Xing Tianze was a little distracted after seeing it for the first time.

The emperor followed Xing Tianze's gaze and looked up, and hurriedly ran from the side of the chair to the middle of the imperial study: "Come on, come on, catch the assassin!" ”

Dozens of Yulin soldiers rushed in from the outside in an instant, protecting the emperor at the first time, and ten of them archers shot out with their bows and arrows.

At such a close distance, the crossbow arrow directly sank into more than half of the length of the roof beam, and the woman disappeared ghostly in the distance before the arrow arrived, and then appeared on the palace lamp in the shape of a crane, and the tip of her right foot was on the crane's head.

Among the people present, only Xing Tianze clearly saw her figure.

The archers redirected their arrows again, and a disdainful smile appeared on the woman's face, and the three fingers of her right hand flicked several times in succession, and two threads like hair flew out of her sleeves.
