"Bang, Bang, Bang" has been three watches in the night.

When Ming Tingxing arrived at the "Liyang Palace", the lights of Concubine Yun Shuwan's bedroom had basically been turned off. Only Yun Shuwan's personal maid, Xiaoyue, sobbed quietly on the steps in front of the door of the study.

Bright Thorn Star approached Xiaoyue with doubts and asked softly, "Xiaoyue, why are you still crying here late at night?" ”

Hearing this, Xiaoyue stopped crying and said timidly: "Slave damned, I accidentally ran into the queen's personal maid in the imperial garden today, in fact, she deliberately blocked the way, and as a result, the lady was humiliated by the queen in public." The slave also received two slaps. ”

"How can this be justified?"

Ming Thorn Star stomped his foot angrily, hesitated for a moment, and then whispered to Xiaoyue to be more careful in the future, and then turned around and went back to his bedroom. Mother Yun Shuwan had already fallen asleep, and he couldn't wake up again. Tonight's matter, I will explain it clearly to my royal brother in the future, because it is not the first time that the queen has bullied her mother.

When the second prince arrived at his "Qianyuan Palace", it was already the fourth watch, but at this moment, the front of the "Qianyuan Palace" was brightly lit, and there was a group of people around the black press, and the two sides seemed to be arguing about something. The Ming Thorn Star in the distance recognized that it was his personal guard Chang Yangcheng who was guarding the gate, and he had just taken over the position of the original guard Chang Cheng Yuanming. At this moment, he was leading the palace guards to confront a group of officers and soldiers.

Ming Thorn Star was shocked, and immediately grabbed the horse's belly, sped up and galloped out of the crowd.

As soon as everyone saw that the bright thorn star was back, they all moved out of the way to both sides. At this time, Ming Tingxing also saw clearly that the leader who came with the officers and soldiers was the Zhengwupin guard Qiu Shaohan beside the prince Ming Chengxuan. This person has followed the prince for many years, and in terms of martial arts, he can be regarded as a first-class master in "Fengdu City".

"The Second Prince"

As soon as Yang Cheng saw that the bright thorn star was back, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately stepped forward and said, "This Autumn Commander said that there was a night walker who stole something from their Tai Palace, and this person had already entered the 'Qianyuan Palace', so they had to lead troops to search. ”

Ming Thorn Xing frowned when he heard this, and his eyes turned to Qiu Shaohan, and the meaning in his eyes was clearly that you are so bold.

Qiu Shaohan's face was slightly hot, and he was about to explain, when at this moment, several fast horses galloped like a whirlwind. The person at the head is the crown prince Ming Chengxuan. Qiu Shaohan was overjoyed in his heart, and was about to step forward to make a statement, but Ming Chengxuan preemptively said: "Confused, how could the person who stole things come to my second brother's palace and not apologize." ”

When Qiu Shaohan heard this, he wanted to argue again and say that he saw it with his own eyes, but when he saw the unhappy look on the prince's face, he had to dismount and kneel down in front of Ming Thorn Star to plead guilty.

When Ming Tingxing saw the prince's attitude, he suddenly muttered in his heart. In his impression, the imperial brother is arrogant and domineering, and he has never taken the initiative to admit his mistakes like today. Could it be that the sun is coming out of the west today? I couldn't understand if the prince had taken the wrong medicine today, so he had no choice but to follow the acting, and raised his hand to signal Qiu Shaohan to get up.

"Haha, emperor, the emperor's subordinates are not sensible, and they will be reprimanded when they go back. It's getting late tonight, so I won't bother my brother. ”

After Ming Chengxuan finished speaking, he turned the horse's head and wanted to leave, Ming Tingxing hesitated for a moment, and suddenly took the first step and said: "Brother Huang, there is one more thing for the minister, ...... in the palace today."

Ming Chengxuan's face changed slightly when he heard this, he naturally heard about the queen mother's reprimand, but he didn't expect Ming Tingxing to dare to ask for an explanation. After hesitating for a moment in his heart, he said with a smile: "I should ask Ming's mother about this matter and leave for the time being." ”

After Ming Chengxuan finished speaking, he didn't wait for Ming Tingxing to finish speaking, turned his horse's head and galloped away. All the people in the palace were gone in an instant.

Ming Thorn Star stared at Ming Chengxuan's back, although he found that the imperial brother's face was a little embarrassed, but he did not regret it in his heart, the mother concubine was bullied for not a day or two, and this matter had to be solved sooner or later.

The guard Chang Yangcheng led his men to follow Ming Thorn Star into the "Qianyuan Palace", and there were four guards left at the door to be on guard. As soon as Yang Cheng and the others entered the door, a masked man in black walked out from under a crooked-necked tree one zhang away from the "Qianyuan Palace". Look at where the figure has been seen, but unfortunately the face is covered and I can't see the original face clearly. A moment later, the masked man performed a peerless form, and ran as fast as lightning into the distance. An hour later, the masked man appeared outside the gate of the "Feiluo Palace". Qian Qunxiao and Lu Jianping came to this place once, and now the entire "Feiluo Palace" has long been destroyed, leaving only a broken wall. On weekdays, you can't see half a figure in the "Feiluo Palace", but at this moment, there are more than a dozen people in front of the door. Standing in the middle is Qian Haiying, the second son of Qianfu. And around him were familiar faces, the "black and white double demon" couple, the captain of the guard Cheng Yuanming who had rebelled beside the second prince Ming Thorn Star, Yun Kaixian, the shopkeeper of the inn, Xiao Liangzi, and several black-clothed killers with expressionless faces. In addition, there is a strange middle-aged beautiful woman with a bow and arrows on her back. Look at the long arrow in the quiver behind her back is exactly the same as the one shot into the sky at the tea shop, the tail part of the arrow is a small piece of golden yellow, and the two should be the same person.

Kneeling in front of Qian Qunxiao was a middle-aged man with a panicked expression, who was Chen Mingxiu, the owner of the Spirit Pigeon Workshop who was sent by Qian Qunxiao to be an undercover agent. The night before, the disciple of the White Demon wanted to give the old prince a trick, Chen Mingxiu turned against the battle to save the old prince, and then showed his heart to Qian Qunxiao, and was inserted into the "Blood Jade Flying Sky" by Qian Qunxiao as an undercover agent.

Qian Haiying glanced at Chen Mingxiu, and her voice was as cold as if it came from hell: "You said that by the time you arrived, Xiaomei had already been found and killed?" ”

"Yes, she thinks that she is a trick and wants to take the lead, it is the same whether I go or not, so she didn't inform me, and stole into the palace first, but she didn't expect to be discovered by Qian Qunxiao. I saw them carrying the bodies out at the door, and when I saw the situation, I immediately fled back to report it. ”

Chen Mingxiu replied cautiously. This is a statement that he has thought about many times along the way. Only then can it be clear how he was able to come back alone. Even though I have rehearsed many times, I am constantly playing drums in my heart, for fear of accidentally revealing flaws.

Qian Haiying nodded, and waved her hand to signal Chen Mingxiu to retreat. Then he looked sideways at Cheng Yuanming, who was silent.

Cheng Yuanming clenched his fists slightly and said softly: "The deputy sect leader has not been able to show up recently, and she ordered that she must stop the Thousand Qunxiao Face Saint and not let him have a chance to turn around." ”

Qian Haiying pondered for a moment, waved his hand to make Chen Mingxiu and Cheng Yuanming retreat, and suddenly turned to look at Xiao Liangzi, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.

Xiao Liangzi was frightened, and immediately took out a black box from his arms. The box opened, and inside was the priceless treasure "Fire Dragon Ball" that was lost by Qianqunxiao.

"Altar Master ......"

Before Xiao Liangzi finished speaking, he was interrupted by Qian Haiying waving his hand. Qian Haiying pointed at Yun Kaixian with her finger, signaling for Yun Kai to keep it first, and then motioning for the two to retreat. As soon as the two left, the middle-aged beautiful young woman also followed, and she didn't say a word from beginning to end. In the blink of an eye, only the "black and white demons" and Qian Haiying were left at the gate of the palace.

The white demon Sima Yun snorted coldly and said, "Altar master, I think there is something wrong with that kid Chen Mingxiu, Xiaomei's girl is not the kind of person who is happy at all." ”

Qian Haiying nodded, lowered her voice and said, "Stare at him." ”

The Black and White Demons each nodded, then turned and disappeared into the night. After sending everyone away, Qian Haiying suddenly turned around and faced the direction where the masked black shadow was hiding.

The masked black shadow walked out of the darkness and said unhurriedly: "There is already a rift between the crown prince and the second prince, and it won't be long before the two turn against each other." ”

The sound is a little familiar, like I've heard it somewhere.

Qian Haiying laughed when she heard this: "This is also part of the sect leader's 'Blood Exquisite Dragon' plan. The Hunter's Altar Master's methods are really clever. ”。

"The altar owner has won the prize, haha!"

The masked man laughed a few times, and then approached Qian Haiying and talked in a low voice. Neither of them said each other's surnames, apparently for fear of revealing each other's identities. In particular, the identity of the masked man is obviously more secretive. Judging from the title, both are in the same position. The masked man is the owner of the "Hunter's Altar", who is his prey? It seems that his "hunter's altar" is a little more terrifying.
