Jing Chi just arrived at the palace and went to the palace, who knows that he hasn't seen him for a long time. Meng Yining waited left and right, but he didn't come back. She grabbed the butler and asked, "It's not far from the palace, and it won't be delayed halfway, why hasn't there been news for so long." ”

The housekeeper comforted, "Don't worry, girl, what can happen to this Chengping." Let the king be pleased and keep him in the king's house. ”

"I hope so." Meng Yining nodded, but still felt unsafe in her heart. She looked out into the endless night, and there were white flower bones on the branches, like the stars of the night. After getting dressed, he said, "I've been out for a walk, and I've been feeling unsteady lately. ”

"Oh my Miss Meng, the epidemic, you forgot about the epidemic, let's wander around the back garden, don't run out." He kindly reminded, his brow furrowed.

The girl shook her head, "Go and go back, I'll go to the Lotus Niangniang Temple and ask for peace." ”

"The girl doesn't believe in gods and Buddhas, why do she believe in them now." The butler laughed.

Meng Yining sighed, "The situation dictates it." After speaking, he got up and walked out, who knew that for a moment, he saw a familiar figure come in.

"Zhang Jiu!" Meng Yining rushed over, his tall figure looking a little trembling in the darkness. Zhang Jiu leaned on the door frame and shouted, "Miss Meng! Meng Yining hurriedly helped, but was injured with a handful of blood, she raised her eyebrows in horror, "Why are you injured!" What about Your Highness? ”

Zhang Jiu weakly pressed all the strength of his body on Meng Yining and the housekeeper, and there were blood marks on the corners of his mouth: "We were attacked when we went out, and His Highness was arrested." Originally, in order to divert the pursuers, I asked people to retreat quickly with His Highness, but during the battle, I was seriously injured and fled to the backyard of a common people, where I was unconscious for a while. His Highness didn't come back, he must have been arrested by those gangsters! You guys...... Look for it! ”

He said as he spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Go ahead...... Go ahead! ”

"Come on, help someone into the house!" The housekeeper yelled, "Gather the palace guards and go out of the palace to find someone!" ”

Everyone stood neatly in front of the housekeeper with torches, and the night wind made Meng Yining feel a trace of desolation. She looked at the orange-red dancing flames, and suddenly felt lonely for a moment, and suddenly Le Yi's face flickered in her mind. And then, and then it disappeared again.

She had to fight it all on her own.

Meng Yining had a calm face, calm, silent, and unfazed. Zhang Jiu made it clear the location of the attack, and the housekeeper also sent someone into the palace to report to King Xia.

Guards reverberated through the streets with torches in hand.

Meng Yining calmed down and jumped onto the roof, away from the hustle and bustle, so that she could calm down a little. Why do you want to catch Jingchi, why do you want to be ruthless next time in the realm of Chengping? Who and what? Why? In Meng Yining's view, no matter what the reason, this is not a good place to arrest or assassinate people. Chengping is majestic, and the streets and alleys are full of officers and soldiers. How can you do it so watertightly? Then perhaps, this person is not an ordinary person, and his range of strength should be able to envelop the entire Chengping.

So who else is there besides King Xia?

Who would be so urgent, so impatient to grab the pool.

There is something in Jingchi's hand that causes panic.

Meng Yining squatted on the tiles, and suddenly a flash of light flashed, Huo Ran stood up, she thought of the news from Beiyang.

King Xia must not know the news if he hasn't moved for so long, so it is very likely that this news was intercepted by someone close to him. Whenever the Zhou family or Jing Zheng sees this news, they will definitely kill the killer. Even if you don't want to have a reputation as a sibling killer in the future, you will definitely wait for the turmoil to subside before releasing Jingchi back. Meng Yining took a deep breath and looked at this huge Chengping City, the plagues in the city, the hidden killers, and the chaotic people...... Guards holding torches lit up the streets in the distance, and the fire seemed to set the whole Chengping on fire.

Meng Yining set his eyes on the huge Lian Wang's mansion and smiled coldly.

With such fanfare, something may be about to happen.

She jumped down and called the butler over, "Your Highness and King Lian grew up together as children and have a close relationship, we should ask for their help, if you delay a little longer, Your Highness will be in more danger." ”

The housekeeper understood, "Someone has been sent, and the guards in King Lian's mansion are also searching now." ”

"Oh?" Meng Yining had doubts.

The gate of the palace opened, and a few guards of the palace passed by. The butler pointed and said, "Look, isn't that what it is?" I don't know where to look, but I found it at the door! "The torches in the hands of the guards of the Lian Wang's Mansion are even thicker, burning like fireworks and cannons, a team of four people, and the guards of the Shizi Mansion are five people in a team. In this way, it is easy to tell. Meng Yining threw down a sentence, "I'll look for it too," and turned around and left the palace.

She went to a three-story restaurant, and although it was full of disasters, it was still brightly lit. She stood on the side of the wooden railing, observing the pair of guards. Meng Yining tried to calm down, as if Gu Zi'an and Le Yi were beside him, quietly analyzing the current situation. Her eyes reflected the lights in the distance, and her hands tapped on the railing. The night wind forced her to relax, empty her brain, and then slowly analyze where the scenery was.

A team of people came to report it, but they couldn't find His Highness.

Meng Yining leaned against the pillar, and suddenly found that the people of the Lian Palace's Mansion were in the most prosperous place in the city, and there was no place close to the south of the city at all. On the contrary, the guards of the prince's mansion did not let go of the search on the streets. What's there? It's just a poor people's house. However, they didn't receive any orders, so they didn't go there to search at all.

Meng Yining put his hand between his lips and teeth and whistled, and the high-headed horse that Salib sent came out of the street. She landed lightly on the horse's back, let out a long shout, "Ride-", and kicked up a puff of dust and left.

Walking through the dark streets and alleys, Meng Yining really found a place of blood in the dark, flowing along the cracks in the ground, presumably a few guards who escorted Jingchi today have been decapitated. She walked quietly down the alley and found a trail of being dragged along. He hurried to keep up with the pace, and finally stopped at a courtyard that looked deserted. The wooden door was half empty and half hidden, Meng Yining took his knife out of the sheath, stretched out his hand to push it open, and looked closely, only to see that there was nothing on the ground, desolate and uninhabited, and there was a thick pile of hay in the corner.

There was no one in the courtyard, and she carefully brushed away the hay, and the five corpses were hideously displayed in front of her.
