The timing of the loss most likely occurred at the beginning of Wang Shichong's capture.

Li Zao's ancestor Li Li followed Li Shimin to fight against Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande in Henan, and was awarded the title of King Heluo after great merit.

I don't know how he knew the secret of the blood gourd, and he took the blood gourd in the process of capturing Wang Shichong.

But for so many years, King Heluo's family has not explored the secret of the blood gourd, and has not found that wealth, and this thing has become an extremely heavy burden in the family.

It was extremely taboo to seize the blood gourd and not hand it over, and it is not an exaggeration to judge that there was a rebellion based on this.

It is now impossible to know what purpose Li Li had in mind to intercept the blood gourd, he only had hundreds of personal soldiers after he was named Queen Heluo, and there was no change in his life, maybe it was just a moment of greed.

The blood gourd has been passed down from generation to generation, but it is undoubtedly a huge bane.

Li Shimin quickly collected the military power in various places after the country was stabilized, and the king of Heluo and his family were even more prepared in such an important place as Luoyang, even if they found this treasure, I am afraid they would not dare to take it out.

The Dugu family has been searching for the whereabouts of the blood gourd for hundreds of years, and has been investigating for decades, until recently, they locked the Heluo Wang family.

After Dugu Xiude assassinated Wang Shichong, some of his descendants befriended the court as officials, and the other part embarked on the road of swordsmen in order to find the blood gourd, and there were many good players in the family.

And Li Zao, under the teachings of his father, embarked on the road of befriending swordsmen, in order to protect himself and preserve the blood gourd.

The style of swordsmen before the Song Dynasty was not only different from Xiuzhen, but also different from the martial arts of later generations, but an outlier in between.

Swordsmen don't cultivate themselves, they don't pursue their own immortality, they practice swords.

All their lives, they found their own heavenly sword, cultivated it, and cultivated it to the highest level, so that they could fly the sword and take people's heads for thousands of miles.

Their lives revolve around a sword.

In addition to a flying sword, these sword practitioners are incomparable to cultivators like Lou Lanfeng, but they are much higher than the martial arts people of later generations.

Xiuzhen was prosperous in ancient times, from Xiuzhen to martial arts, in fact, it can be understood that Xiuzhen is gradually hiding, they retreat to the outside of human society, and the remaining methods are slowly declining in the human world, first producing swordsmen, and then regressing to martial arts, and now almost nothing.

At that time, the Shaolin Temple in the fief of King Heluo had become famous, but their family and monks were not close, because the story of the thirteen stick monks of Shaolin Temple who rescued Tang King Li Shimin was well-known, and the Shaolin Temple had a very close relationship with the royal family, so they naturally avoided it.

Since Li Yuanfu, the Heluo Wangfu has been extremely close to the Wangwu Sword Sect, and the woman in pink is the daughter of the old head of the Wangwu, named Yuan Chenfei, who is gifted and talented in sword refining, and has won the true inheritance of his father, and his cultivation is higher than the current head.

After the death of the old master, she entered the palace, and got along with Li Zao day and night on weekdays, and slowly the two not only became a couple, but Yuan Chenfei even controlled Li Zao.

A few days ago, someone from the Dugu family began to come to the door at night, trying to steal the blood gourd, but his skills were not good, and he was killed by Yuan Chenfei's flying sword.

After that, the two of them young clansmen actually came to negotiate openly, how could the Heluo Mansion admit to having a blood gourd, but the negotiation collapsed and Yuan Chenfei killed one person, and the other ran away.

In fact, after Li Yuanfu's death, the blood gourd has always been in the hands of the princess, she is a thoughtful person, knowing that as long as the blood gourd is kept, it will be a bane, and now she is being approached by someone, causing two murders in a row, feeling that a catastrophe is coming, and it may even alarm the imperial court to cause a tragedy to exterminate the nine clans!

Thinking about the tens of thousands of people in my mother's family who may be implicated in the rebellion case, I was anxious.

She was in a hurry to destroy, and it was easy to smash or burn it, but Li Zao and Yuan Chenfei refused to give up, and they forced each other hard, and Mrs. swallowed it in a hurry!

In the end, he simply committed suicide by hanging the beam, planning to take the blood gourd into the grave for a hundred!

She never expected that her only son would disembowel her and take her out, which is a great crime of humiliating corpses, and it was to be killed in the Tang Dynasty.

After getting the blood gourd, Li Zao and Yuan Chenfei still had time to escape, but they didn't plan to do it at all.

First, they are reluctant to give up the throne of Heluo, Wang Shichong's wealth must be in Luoyang City, and they have lost the power to call for wind and rain in Luoyang City, so it is even more difficult to find the treasure.

Second, Yuan Chenfei relied on his swordsmanship, and he didn't take the Dugu family in his eyes.

No matter how arrogant the Dugu family is, they don't dare to mess around, now it is a peaceful and prosperous era, and they don't have the courage to openly attack the royal family.

What's more, there are still many people in the Dugu family who are officials in the court, no matter how much you kill you in private in this matter, you have to pretend to be nothing on the surface, and no one dares to spread out the problem.

After all, the blood gourd involves Wang Shichong, and both sides have concealed it for so many years and have not reported it, and they are both suspected of harboring evil intentions.

This is also a bit like snatching the Traveler Stone between Loulan Feng and the sect, and they can only slash and kill each other silently.

But Li Zao was still worried about the safety of the blood gourd, and it was not a way to fight and kill for a long time, and the Dugu family must be completely eradicated.

With the strength of the Heluo Palace, Yuan Chenfei thought of his cousin, Uncle Yuan Ye, the deputy commander of the Chang'an Yulin Army, Guo Yidu, if he was willing to help, he would be able to eradicate the Dugu family.

It just so happens that the mother needs to go out of Chang'an, but she can enter Beijing justifiably, otherwise the king of the outer seal will not be able to leave the territory at will.

But the two of them disagreed on how to keep the blood gourd, it was not safe to put it on Li Zao, and Li Zao was not at ease on Yuan Chenfei, and the final result of the discussion was to let Yuan Chenfei hide under the coffin with the blood gourd, which not only created the illusion that Yuan Chenfei had left, but also could kill them by surprise at a critical moment.

Moreover, Yuan Chenfei and Li Zao have an ambiguous relationship, there are many people along the way, and Li Zao's wife and young have to accompany her, and she is not willing to mix with them.

It was Li Zao's henchmen who killed people outside, and Li Zao, who was usually in charge of his personal guard, hid in the Yuefu brothel these days, killing people and cutting off his internal organs according to his orders.

Lou Lanfeng read this, probably already understood the situation, did not kill Li Zao, and looked inside the coffin, the blood gourd was indeed hidden in Yuan Chenfei's body.

Lou Lanfeng did not take any further action and left the mourning hall directly.

When I got out of the gate, I paid a little attention to the surroundings of the palace, and sure enough, someone was staring around!

More than a dozen reinforcements from the Dugu family had already entered the city yesterday and were waiting around the palace.

They were also suspicious of Li Zao's funeral at this time, but they heard that the old lady was eaten by goblins, and there were non-stop deaths in Luoyang City for several days, but they had to believe it.

Yesterday, during the day, he even sent people to the door to offer condolences, making it clear that he was going to grab the blood gourd with Li Zaoming.

These people are not very skilled, and when they found that Yuan Chenfei was missing, they thought that she was going back to the palace to rescue the soldiers, but they were very jealous, and once again flew the pigeon to send more people to the house, and planned to attack all the way on the way out of the funeral, and vowed not to give up until the goal was achieved.

Lou Lanfeng changed his initial idea, let them fight each other, he planned to be a fisherman.
