Song Jinyan changed into a night robe, without Yuan Ming by his side, Song Jinyan directly picked up Kou Shu with his hand, and stepped on the pieces of roof tiles on the palace and flew forward, flashing like a ghost rushing at night.

This was the first time Kou Shu had been lying in Song Jinyan's arms like this, there was a burst of warmth in her thick chest, Kou Shu closed her eyes slightly, and she could hear Song Jinyan's powerful heartbeat.

"Is the queen asleep?" Seeing Kou Shu's narrowed eyes, Song Jinyan raised his eyebrows and smiled.

Kou Shu was stunned, got up from Song Jinyan's arms, glanced at the scenery below and said, "It's here." ”

Song Jinyan nodded, and the two of them slowly landed on the top of the Kou Mansion together. The former famous Kou Mansion has long been clouded by Kou Yunwu's death. Kou Mansion has long been sealed, there are few people, and there is a thick atmosphere of decay and coldness everywhere. The original flowers were full of flowers and prosperity, but they had long been replaced by today's bleak and bleak people, looking at the scene in front of her, Kou Shu couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

"Where is the Queen's boudoir?" Song Jinyan's words brought Kou Shu back to reality, now is not the time to think about this, finding the key to the heavenly box and protecting the national safety of Daxuan is the most important thing. Kou Shu's heart froze, and then pointed to the southwest direction, and said, "Before the concubine entered the palace, she lived in that house. ”

Approaching with Kou Shu's hand, the room is a secondary house on the edge of the main house, although it is a secondary house, but it is not small, and the location is also the center of the palace, which is enough to see how high the status of Kou Shu was in the Kou family.

Slowly pushing the door, because of the disrepair, the iron sheet has rusted, and there is a strange "creak" sound from the door shaft that is pushed open, which makes people feel frightened.

Kou Shu settled the emotions that were flying in her heart, and paused and said: "Before the concubine went to Qingcheng Gate to apprentice, she lived here, if I remember correctly, the dagger was placed in this room that day." ”

Song Jinyan nodded imperceptibly, and then glanced around the room, I don't know why, Song Jinyan only felt a strange feeling welling up in his heart.

Suddenly, a silver light flashed in front of Song Jinyan's eyes, and the silver light came straight towards Song Jinyan, approaching Song Jinyan's face - it was a sword light.

Kou Shu's heart tightened, the secret way was not good, she took a few steps back, and vaguely saw someone coming by the moonlight, Kou Shu almost exclaimed: "Lan Haoke!" ”

In the dark night, Lan Haoke also wore a signature metal mask on his face, and under the cold moonlight, he revealed the chill of the forest.

Although Song Jinyan was dressed in a night suit, he also had a green silk soft sword pinned to his waist for self-defense, which collided with Lan Haoke's sword, Jin Ge roared, tossing and turning for a while, and it was difficult to solve.

Kou Shu returned to the familiar room and looked around carefully, it seemed that Lan Haoke hadn't found anything yet, and there was no trace of movement in the room, Kou Shu was bold and shouted at Lan Haoke: "At the feet of the Son of Heaven, you are so bold, Lan Haoke, do you really think that you are still the prince of Lanling Kingdom?" ”

Hearing Kou Shu's words to reveal his identity as the prince of Lanling Kingdom, the destruction of his mother country was the most unacceptable stinging past in Lan Haoke's heart, and when he heard Kou Shu's words, he stabbed straight at Lan Haoke, Lan Haoke was enraged, snorted coldly, and said: "Kou Shu, don't be complacent, I don't know who killed the deer." ”

Taking advantage of Lan Haoke's opening, Song Jinyan had already made four or five killing moves one after another, without the slightest intention of leaving a living mouth.

The sword light in Lan Haoke's hand skyrocketed suddenly, and his body was even more agile and athletic, and his movements were as fast as lightning. It's just that if he is a real master, he can still see that in a few subtleties, Lan Haoke's body has a trace of stagnant moments, obviously there are old injuries in his body.

Song Jinyan frowned, changed the defensive momentum just now, used the qi of the dantian, and turned his backhand and went straight towards Lan Haoke's injury.

Lan Haoke was shocked in his heart, he couldn't dodge, and he couldn't take it, but he received Song Jinyan's extremely fierce attacks one after another, one move after another, and he was like a bamboo. Lan Haoke only felt that bursts of qi and blood were surging up in the dantian, and a burst of fishy sweetness was surging up in his throat. With a horizontal look in his eyes and a cold snort, Lan Haoke's figure retreated extremely quickly, fighting and retreating, slowly approaching the window behind him, obviously trying to avoid the battle.

Song Jinyan didn't stop him, but saw Lan Haoke's figure jump, like a black arc flashing out of the window. Song Jinyan and Kou Shu watched Lan Haoke escape through the window, and they had no intention of pursuing.

"Your Majesty—" Kou Shu said, "Are you okay?" ”

Song Jinyan shook his head: "Does the queen remember that I met you in the palace that night and pursued the blood stains on the ground together?" ”

Kou Shu was stunned: "Could it be that the emperor is talking about ......?"

Song Jinyan looked at Kou Shu with a complicated expression, and said: "That's right, it was this person who fought with me in the palace that day, and you and I followed the bloodstains that day, and it was also the trace of this person that I followed." After a pause, Song Jinyan continued: "It's just because he was masked that day, not wearing an iron mask, and it was the first time he fought with me, and in today's battle, I was able to confirm that he was Lan Haoke just now." ”

Kou Shu gasped and muttered, "If that's the case, this Lan Haoke is too rampant, and entering and leaving the palace is like entering a no-man's land." Thinking of the few times she had doubted, Kou Shu felt that all the things that happened before were inextricably linked to Lan Haoke. Shaking his head, Kou Shu tried to concentrate, and said: "The house has not been turned over yet, and I think that Lan Haoke has not found anything yet, Your Majesty, let's find the dagger as soon as possible." ”

Song Jinyan nodded, and then took out two extremely small and delicate silver-patterned sandalwood handle torches from his sleeve, and said: "This torch is made of a special wick, and the burning light is almost invisible through a layer of window paper, there is no moonlight tonight, the queen should take the torch and look around." With that, Song Jinyan lit the two silver-patterned sandalwood handle torches in his hand and handed one to Kou Shu.

Taking the torch from Song Jinyan's hand, Kou Shu turned around and slowly searched in his room. While walking, Kou Shu spoke: "The concubine remembers that this dagger has been hung on this wall by the concubine, and later because the mother said that the girl's family should not put the knife and gun in the house, so this dagger was moved——"

Kou Shu walked forward slowly, and Song Jinyan also followed behind Kou Shu patiently, quietly listening to Kou Shu's recollections.

"If the concubine is not mistaken...... Kou Shu muttered, "The dagger should be here-"
