"Why are you here?" The Mitsui Leopard who jumped onto our deck glared at Qin Langdao, and then turned his head to look at me, with a smile in his eyebrows, "Xiaoyue! Did the duck eat it? Tastes good? ”

"Uh......"

Without waiting for me to arrange how to answer, Qin Lang had already walked in front of the Keishui Leopard in two steps: "Why are you here?" What about Your Highness? ”

"Your Highness is naturally on the official ship." The Keishui leopard pointed south, "Oh, just now our official boat happened to meet a few Taoist priests who fell into the water and asked for help, His Royal Highness let people save the boat, those Taoist priests said that they were robbed by lake bandits in front, the boat was robbed, and a few Taoist priests were killed and thrown corpses, and the state was terrible, so His Highness sent me and my brothers to the front to have a look...... What happened to you? ”

Before he finished speaking, he saw Qin Lang's phoenix eyes flashing green, "Daoist? On the ship of His Highness? ”

"yes, there are seven or eight." The water leopard's face was unclear, obviously he had never seen Qin Lang look so out of shape, "You...... Have a grudge against a Taoist priest? ”

"Where is the lake bandit robbing the Taoist," I shouted urgently, "The Taoist is the lake bandit!" ”

"What?!"

The water leopard took charge of the boat and drove a dinghy out of the speed of a rocket.

"There are more than 20 of His Highness's casual bright guards and secret guards, and there are only seven or eight lake bandits, so they shouldn't be opponents." Seeing Qin Lang staring at the Keishui leopard with an expression of wanting to eat people, I had to comfort me softly, but I was really bottomless in my heart: what is the level of the secret guard around the fat man, the lake bandits have seen it, but they dare to assassinate with only seven or eight people, where does it come from?

When we arrived at the official ship, we were slightly relieved to see that the wind and waves on the deck were calm and the secret guards were under control.

Could it be that the lake bandits haven't done it yet?

Ran hurriedly pushed the door into the cabin, only to feel a strange sweet smell coming to my face, before I could react, I had already covered my mouth and nose by Qin Lang, "Misty fragrance!" ”

Through the lingering incense, I saw that the people in the cabin were all asleep.

"The prince is there!" I covered my mouth and nose, stepped over the maid and the maid lying on the ground, and pushed the fat man lying on the desk hard.

Under a push, I saw that the case was red, and a bloody dagger suddenly appeared on the case!

My heart almost jumped out of my chest, and I couldn't believe that the fat man had been poisoned.

"No, no...... Pan Gongzi, what about Pan Gongzi? "I looked at the man in the green shirt beside him in a daze, but now he was lying in a pool of blood!

I went limp and fell to the ground.

I can't believe that the fat boy who can stay up for a few math problems, the warm-hearted fat man who always saves me in a critical moment is gone; The handsome prince who smiled like a spring breeze, and the Pan Gongzi who took care of and spoiled me when he asked me, I will never see him again.

I opened my mouth, but I couldn't make any sound, and the tears were overwhelming.

In a trance, I saw Qin Lang come to my side, bending down to investigate the fat man's body, and vaguely heard his deep voice: "No! ”

What's wrong? I quickly wiped away my tears and watched as he flipped the fat man's body over and ripped off the human skin mask on his face.

Beneath the mask, there was a completely unfamiliar face.

"The deceased is similar to His Royal Highness," Qin Lang carefully examined the fatal wound on the corpse's chest again, "Obviously, the lake bandits found a stand-in, and Li Daitao stiffened to hide people's eyes." ”

To put it this way...... I got up and rushed to the dead "Pan Gongzi", and sure enough, I also removed a human skin mask from his face.

"The rest of the people were not injured, but they were fainted by the incense." The water leopard probed the hibiscus's mouth, nose and pulse.

Since it's not the fat man who dies...... My heart moved: "In other words, those lake bandits took His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the prince away." ”

"The problem is, there are a lot of guards outside the cabin," the Mitsumi leopard shook his head puzzled, "how did the lake bandits take people away under the noses of the guards?" ”

"Those Taoist priests with bloody faces kept saying that they had been attacked by lake bandits, and His Highness ordered them to go into the cabin to inquire." On the deck, the leader of the secret guard knelt on the ground, trembling, "After only half a pillar of incense, I saw those Taoist priests come out and say that it was inconvenient for the family to bother for a long time, and His Highness had allowed them to leave in the small boat on our ship." ”

"And then you let people go so easily?!" The water leopard angrily raised his foot and kicked heavily on the shoulders of the dark guard.

The dark guard was motionless, and he suffered this kick alive, "The subordinates looked at it very carefully, and the people who went in and came out were the same group of Taoist priests, and none of them were bad." For the sake of prudence, his subordinates still asked His Highness for instructions, and saw that His Highness gave permission from the window before letting them go. ”

Qin Lang looked at the secret guard kneeling on the ground with a dark face, "A bunch of waste!" ”

I didn't see him so angry, so I could only persuade: "It's useless for you to scold them now." Since His Royal Highness was taken away, it means that the other party does not want to kill him, and there is no need to worry about his life for the time being. He took two steps forward and patted his tense arm soothingly, "It's better to calm down and analyze the situation and find a way to save His Highness." ”

Hearing me say this, Qin Lang's reddened eyes finally softened, and he said coldly to the trembling secret guards: "All go back to their respective sentry posts and stand by!" Wait for Your Highness to be rescued, and then do the theory! ”

After dismissing the secret guards, Qin Lang and I, and the three of us returned to the cabin, trying to find some clues and speculate on the origin of the prince's abduction.

"What is this?" I bent down, picked up a small piece of incense from the corner, put it under my nose and sniffed it, only to feel a pungent smell rush over me, and my consciousness was instantly in a trance.

"Beware!" Fortunately, Qin Lang noticed my abnormality in time, helped me swaying, and brought me a cup of tea to drink.

"What is this? Such a big energy...... "After pouring a cup of herbal tea, I felt clear again."

The Keishui leopard squinted and looked at it for a while, "Ghost ginseng can steal people's minds." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Prince of the World, I am afraid that they will be taken away by this thing. ”

I nodded, and had a general idea of what was going on.

"The lake bandits pretended to be Taoist priests, and first staged a bitter trick, saying that they had been attacked by the lake bandits. And His Royal Highness is worried about the fact that the lake bandits can't be found, hearing what they say, he will naturally ask them to come close to inquire about the situation, and send Brother Leopard to lead people to explore the traces of the lake bandits, which is very natural.

After the lake bandits entered the cabin, they immediately released the drug to stun the people in the cabin, and used ghost ginseng to make the prince and the prince in a trance. Then, two lake bandits who had already been arranged, similar in shape to the prince and the prince, changed clothes with him, and then put on human skin masks to pretend to be the princes, while the real prince and the prince were put on the masks of the lake bandits and brought out of the cabin in a grand manner.

When the secret guard asked the prince outside the cabin, the prince pretending to be in the cabin just nodded, and helped the lake bandits get off the ship smoothly. When the lake bandits and the prince and the two went away in a small boat, the prince and the prince in the cabin committed suicide according to the previous plan, creating the illusion that the prince was killed. ”

Speaking of which, I turned my head to look at Qin Lang thoughtfully, "If it weren't for the fact that you have been by the prince's side for many years, you are very familiar with his figure and have seen the clues, I am afraid that others will think that the prince has been killed." ”

"According to the secret guard, the lake bandits took a small boat to the south, perhaps in the direction of Yangzhou, how fast a small boat can be." The water leopard slapped the table, "I'll take my brothers to chase after me!" I will definitely be able to chase His Highness back! ”

As soon as he jumped up and was about to jump out of the door, he was kicked on his calf by Qin Lang coldly, "Reckless! If it weren't for your recklessness, Your Highness wouldn't have been taken captive! ”

"Hey, you......" The water leopard opened his mouth and wanted to go back, but after thinking about it, he was at his own fault, so he turned his head and stopped making a sound.

Seeing that the two of them choked again, I had to make a thin mud in the middle: "Brother Leopard, the lake bandits are heading south, maybe they are just misleading us." Instead of chasing without direction, it is better to consider who actually kidnapped His Highness. ”

"Who else could it be, Lake Bandit." The Kei Shui Leopard said in a low voice, and he felt strange after saying it, "Where did a gang of lake bandits kidnap His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" It's not like it's for ransom, that's stupid. ”

When the crown prince is so valuable, it is difficult to say whether he can get the ransom for kidnapping him, but the Jiu clan is ironclad, but no normal person will do such a loss-making business.

"We just found out that the backer behind the lake bandits may be the second prince."

"Second prince?!" The Mishui Leopard's eyes turned into copper bells, "That's reasonable, it's just ...... If it was the second prince's order, he should have asked for the order of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince on the spot and kidnapped him...... Not afraid of long nights? ”

That's where I wondered. What is the purpose of such a contradictory act of the lake bandits taking His Royal Highness away and painstakingly creating the illusion that the prince has been assassinated? I leaned against the wall and tapped the wall panel with my fingertips, "The Second Prince, the Marquis of Ping'an, the Governor of Yangzhou, He Kui, and the Lake Bandits, who needs His Royal Highness to live?" ”

The three of us were silent for a moment, and Qin Lang's eyes flashed: "Ping'an Hou!" ”

"That's right, Ping'an Hou." Qin Lang and I glanced at each other and nodded, "He Kui is just a lackey under the second prince, but the Marquis of Ping'an is a powerful prince and a powerful person in the army. At present, although he said that he fell to the second prince, he was also worried that with the ruthless character of the second prince, after the matter was completed, the rabbit and the dog would cross the river and tear down the bridge. ”

"Yes," Qin Lang said, "The Marquis of Ping'an received the order of the second prince to assassinate the prince, but he had some selfish intentions, so that his subordinates Hu Bandit openly created the illusion that the prince was assassinated, but secretly took the prince away and imprisoned him as a bargaining chip. ”

"With such a valuable and important bargaining chip, he naturally doesn't dare to put it elsewhere, and it will inevitably be under his nose." I continued to speculate, "So no matter where the lake bandits go, there is only one final destination, and that is the Ping'an Hou Mansion!" ”
