The children who came in were so frightened at this scene that they cried out and sat on the ground, trembling.

Yao Xiu pressed the sword in his hand and glanced at several of his subordinates.

The crowd understood, so they scattered and quietly entered the house with their swords.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Yao Xiu helped the child up and inspected the yard at the same time.

After about ten minutes, the people who had entered the room came out again, and in front of Yao Xiu, these people all shook their heads blankly.

Obviously, there was nothing in the house.

Realizing this, Yao Xiu's brows twisted into a pimple, he first asked people to send the child back, and then sent someone to notify the yamen in Jiankang City to come.

Taking advantage of this, Yao Xiu checked the situation of the corpses in the courtyard.

In general, these corpses were killed by a single blow, and the wounds were smooth and neat, and at a glance it was clear that they were killed by a sword.

"There are many swordsmanship in Jiankang City that are so exquisite, but the only one who can kill the people should be Ling Xuzi alone."

Yao Xiu pondered in her heart.

While he was thinking, a Dubo came up and hugged his fist at Yao Xiu: "Fourth son, the clue has been broken here, what should we do next?" ”

Yao Xiu didn't say anything, but looked around with a deep groan.

He saw a wooden ladder next to the house, and after some hesitation, he climbed up the wooden ladder to see his surroundings.

Du Bo, who came up, also put his hands on the pergola to take a look, but after looking at it for a long time, he didn't see the reason, so he asked with doubts: "Fourth son, is there anything wrong with this?" ”

Yao Xiu pointed to the footprints left on the roof.

Even though several days had passed, the footprints were still visible.

Seeing this, Du Bo was dumbfounded: "Could it be that Ling Xuzi escaped from here?" ”

"Well, that's how it should be."

"Ah, then, isn't it hard to find now?"

Yao Xiu didn't say a word, and suddenly, his eyes lit up and he looked straight ahead.

Seeing this, Du Bo was curious, and looked at Yao Xiu's gaze, but he didn't see anything everywhere he looked.

This time, Du Bo couldn't help it and asked Yao Xiu what was wrong.

Yao Xiu pointed straight ahead: "If I'm not mistaken, this direction is about seven or eight streets ahead, which is the direction of the Imperial Palace, right?" ”

Du Bo nodded subconsciously, and just wanted to say something, but suddenly reacted: "Fourth prince, what do you mean?" ”

Yao Xiu nodded: "Over the past few days, we have searched everywhere. Only the palace was not visited. Under normal thinking, Ling Xuzi should have fled out. You say, under the noses of an army of 50,000, can Ling Xuzi run away? ”

Duber pondered and shook his head: "No." ”

Yao Xiu snorted: "That's it, let's go, go to the palace." ”

Du Bo was frightened: "It's not the fourth prince, this place in the palace is not something that can be entered casually." Adults have the status of attendants, and can enter and exit at will without notification. Let's not get in. ”

"Don't be afraid, the Praetorian Guards in the palace are all our people. If we just say that we entered the palace to find the assassins, I think the brothers will not stop us. If something happens, it's all on me. ”

Yao Xiu's words have all said this, so what else can Du Bo say?

So, Yao Xiu left a soldier to guard the scene and wait for the people at the yamen to come.

As for Yao Xiu, he took the rest of his brothers and rushed to the direction of the palace.

Along the way, just as everyone was about to reach the palace, they bumped into a group of cavalry.

The leader was dressed in a plain white cotton robe, and he was born with a handsome look.

It's none other than Wang Xuance, the first beautiful man under Yao Yu.

He has followed Yao Yu to search for Ling Xuozi in the past few days, no, he didn't find it today, Wang Xuance was sent back to check the situation and see if there was any news in the city.

He also took thirty or forty cavalrymen to pass by the palace not far away, when he bumped into Yao Xiu.

When he saw Yao Xiu, Wang Xuance was still very surprised: "Fourth prince, why are you still staying in the city if you don't follow Da Sima to find an assassin outside the city?" ”

Yao Xiu sighed, and told Wang Xuance about his speculation.

Wang Xuance was taken aback when he heard this: "Can't it, that assassin doesn't run out, but still dares to go to the palace?" Isn't he afraid that he won't be able to get out? ”

Yao Xiu shook his head: "If I go out of the city now, I really can't get out, if I am Ling Xuozi, I will also find a safe place to hide first, and when the time is ripe, wouldn't it be safer to escape when the matter has passed?" ”

Don't look at Wang Xuance's elegance and elegance, but he is not good at using his brain, compared to wisdom, Wang Xuance relies more on the hook and sickle in his hand, and the indomitable courage.

Now after listening to Yao Xiu's words, he immediately felt that it made sense, and immediately, he raised his hook and sickle to stop his cavalry, and then said to Yao Xiu: "It makes sense, I will go to the palace with you." If you do bump into the Assassin, you can clean him up. Otherwise, you'll be alone, and I'm afraid you're not an opponent. ”

The corners of Yao Xiu's mouth grinned, and her heart said Why don't I believe your words so much?

Who doesn't know up and down in the army, you are the kind of person who sees military exploits more than you see your father.

Are you sure you're not here to take credit for me?

As soon as this idea came out in his heart, he was thrown out by Yao Xiu.

It's just that it's important to save people, plus Wang Xuance does have some ability, so it's always much more convenient to take him with him.

Thinking of this, Yao Xiu nodded: "Okay, you come with me." ”

Immediately, the two sides joined forces, and more than 60 people marched in the direction of the palace.

When he arrived at the place, Yao Xiu found the officer in charge of guarding at the gate of the palace.

The officer didn't know Yao Xiu, but he knew Wang Xuance.

As mentioned earlier, the Praetorian Guards in the palace were all Yao Yu's henchmen, and now as soon as he heard that the assassins might be hiding in the palace, the officer didn't say a word, and asked his subordinates to open the palace gate and let Yao Xiu, Wang Xuance and others in.

It's just that when letting people in, the officer named Liang Ang was still a little hesitant: "Fourth son, Wang General Army." Da Sima had previously instructed that no horseback riding was allowed in the palace. It is still necessary to give the court some face. Otherwise, it's going to break up, and both sides won't look good, you see..."

Yao Xiu doesn't matter, the main thing is that Wang Xuance likes majesty.

Let him push out the opportunity to pretend to be forced is more uncomfortable than killing him.

But there is no way, Liang Angdu moved out of Yao Yu's name, Wang Xuance in his life, in addition to his mother Wang Yun, the most respected is Yao Yu who made his debut.

In charge, Wang Xuance turned over and dismounted without saying a word, took out the bow and arrow and put it on his back, holding a hook and sickle in one hand and pressing the ring head knife in the other: "Since it is the meaning of Da Sima, then of course I have to do it." Don't worry, if the assassin is really in the palace, I can clean him up without a war horse. ”

Yao Xiuxin said that you can blow a few words, Lu Bi and He Xiong are defeated.
