Chapter Seventy-Four: The Night of the Chivalry Assassinates the County Palace

Chu Qing arrived at the Jinju Yuan and carefully checked the security situation.

The doorman told him that there was nothing unusual in the past two days, except for a woman who sold flowers and walked around.

Chu Qing listened and wondered: "What time is it, and you are still selling flowers......

The doorman said: "She said that she met Miss Luo and came to send Jin Ju, but was driven away by the minions." ”

Before the words fell, Miaojin flashed out from the side and said with a smile: "Young Master Chu, it turns out that you are Chu Shuai's eldest son." ”

Chu Qing was taken aback when he heard this, and was stunned.

"The dignified three towns are the sons of the festival, but they are always suspicious when they do things...... You really treat me as an outsider! ”

Chu Qing bowed slightly, and said, "For the safety of my father, I will compose the girl." ”

"Hmph, the son keeps saying that he wants to marry me, but I'm used to staying in the capital, and I really don't want to go back to Yuyang."

Chu Qing was secretly happy when he heard this, and said with a smile: "As long as the girl is willing, then I won't leave." ”

"What about your father?"

"Don't worry, girl, I will persuade him."

"Well, that's pretty much it; Whether the son is sincere or not, then wait and see. Miao Jin smiled at him as she spoke, then turned and walked away.

In order to hold the ceremony of sealing the king, Wang Jie was busy in the palace for more than half a day; By the time the banquet was over, he was sweaty and exhausted.

He didn't delay a moment in the palace for a moment, and returned home with a horse, Cen Feng had been waiting for him for a long time.

Wang Jie reported to her, saying that Chu Mohan might stay in King Hui's Mansion tonight; Jia Sheng has ordered him to go to the palace to audition for a new show, "Hu Ji Eighteen Beats", which was only rehearsed last month.

Cen Feng was very excited when he heard this, and whispered a few words to him.

Then Cen Feng rushed to Zhiyuan, informed Li Yunhan of Chu Mohan's whereabouts, and ordered him to prepare to act as planned......

Approaching dusk, Chu Mohan entered the Kuixing Pavilion of King Hui's mansion, lay on the bed and rested for a while, and Suo Owl came to report, saying that King Hui came to visit.

After the two met, they exchanged pleasantries, and Chu Mohan said: "Thanks to the prince for staying overnight, Chu is very grateful, and he specially presents a pair of jade pixiu to express his gratitude." ”

The white dolphin held the Pixiu gift box and presented it to King Hui.

"The general is out; The general's visit to the humble house has added glory to the old man's face; King Hui gently pushed it away, "Tonight, this king specially arranged a pear garden song and dance for the general, and please give it a reward." ”

Chu Mohan yawned and said that he was tired all day, so he didn't need to.

"I'm afraid it's inappropriate." King Hui's face was displeased.

"Forgive me," with a shout, Chu Qing gracefully entered the room and bowed deeply to King Hui, "Father is tired for a day, and it is not too late to go after he has a short rest." ”

King Hui was stunned, looked Chu Qing up and down, frowned, and said, "Hey, aren't you surnamed Qing, why are you ......?"

Chu Mohan laughed when he heard this, and said, "What is the surname Qing, he is a dog - Chu Qing." ”

Chu Qingbi said respectfully: "The prince forgive me, in order to avoid trouble when I went down to Beijing to play, I changed my name to Qingyi." ”

"Oh, I see." King Hui came to understand and smiled, said a few more flattering words, and left.

Chu Qing glanced at the jade pixiu on the table, turned around and instructed Suo Owl to guard the door downstairs and not allow anyone to enter or leave.

"Qing'er, don't you want to stay in the capital?" Chu Mohan drooped his face, "This time it's as you wish." ”

"Oh?"

"Your Majesty has to see you, and I want to make you an official who is too servant."

"Father, what the hell is going on?"

"Hmph, it's not Yang Silang's proposal yet." Chu Mohan stretched his face, "Dad is worried, he doesn't have a good heart." ”

"That, father's meaning ......"

"Don't just don't break the official and go back to Yuyang with my father." Chu Mohan's face was gloomy, "As my father, I am also the envoy of the Three Towns Festival, and I hold more than 100,000 elites and Weizhen Quartet; One day, I will ascend to the throne, you are the prince, are you not worthy of a little prince?! ”

Chu Qing was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this, looked around, and said in a low voice: "Father, this rebellious thing ......"

"What, you're scared?"

Chu Qingqiang cheered up a little and said: "Your Majesty treats his father well, and his grace is crowned in the world, although Yang Silang and his villains are jealous, but they shouldn't have such distracting thoughts!" ”

"Of course, I know that. But have you thought about it, once Your Majesty drives the crane west, Lin Xiang will retire again, will he still let his surname Yang and pee on your father's head!? ”

"This," Chu Qing pondered for a moment and said, "The situation is unpredictable, and of course my father must be guarded against." However, if you want to achieve great things, you need to think long-term. Since His Majesty wants to see the child, he might as well take over the post of the servant first, so as not to be suspicious. When the time is ripe in the future, the child will return to Yuyang. ”

"Hmph, you still don't want to leave!"

"Also, although my father has more than 100,000 elite soldiers under his account, he is not well prepared and prepared at the moment."

"Hmph, what do you kid want to sell?" Chu Mohan frowned.

"To tell you the truth, the child has discovered the secret treasure of martial virtue; If this treasure can be used as silver, why worry about the great cause! ”

"Haha—okay, I'll believe you again." Chu Mohan was overjoyed when he heard this, and patted Chu Qing's shoulder. He went to the inner room, lay down on the bed, and in a moment fell asleep.

Chu Qing paced a few steps in the hall, called over to Bai Dolphin, and talked to him in a low voice......

As night falls, the ballroom is lit by candlelight and music is playing.

In a corner of the hall, Wang Jiezheng was playing with Tao Zi and other seven or eight musicians. He looked calm, but his heart was uneasy.

King Hui, Princess Pingyu, Lord Rongyi and others sat in a circle, each with their own thoughts.

King Hui sat uneasily for a while, looked up at the window, and said to himself, "It's been so long, and I haven't seen General Chu." He was about to send Steward Ji to invite him again, when he looked up, he suddenly saw Chu Qing walking in hurriedly, bowed deeply to him, and said, "Lord Wang, I'm really sorry; The father was overwhelmed and fell asleep. ”

Although King Hui was displeased when he heard it, he couldn't complain, so he said a cold "um". Chu Qing seemed to sense King Hui's thoughts, and sat beside him with a smile, watching the performance casually, chatting with him from time to time.

After the song was finished, Wang Jie lied to Tao Zi and was anxious, and hurriedly slipped out of the hall, and soon disappeared into the dark night.

Reaching the depths of the dense forest in the garden, Wang Jie slapped three times in a row. The applause fell, and a masked man jumped out. It turned out that this person was Wu Qi, who came on the order of Li Yunhan.

Wu Qi asked, what about Chu Mohan?

Wang Jie pointed to the east, "East Courtyard, Kuixing Pavilion." ”

"Who else is in the house?"

Wang Jie shook his head and said he didn't know.

The two were talking in a low voice, when suddenly a shout came from behind them: "Who is talking here?" ”

Wang Jie's body trembled, and when he looked back, he saw Princess Pingyu standing in the hazy night. He hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "Your Highness, it's my ......"

Seeing this, Wu Qi flew out of the circle and disappeared into the dense forest in an instant.

"Say, Who is he?" Ping Yu pointed to Wu Qi's figure and asked.

"He's just an old friend."

"Hmph, what an old friend! Mask in the middle of the night, with a sharp blade hanging from his waist...... I'm afraid there is something unsavvy! ”

"This ...... I'll tell you when I get back," Wang said as Bi plopped down and begged her in a low voice not to tell anyone.

Ping Yu felt pity when he saw it, and didn't ask any more questions, and his attitude eased a lot......

When Wu Qi arrived in front of Kuixing Pavilion, he crouched behind the tree and observed for a while. A group of housekeepers who patrolled the courtyard had just walked by, and there were four guards standing downstairs, some of them listless.

Taking advantage of the unpreparedness, he quietly climbed a towering ancient cypress outside the building, and climbed the roof of the second floor along the branches. He hung upside down, opened the window, and swooped in.

It was pitch black inside the room, and there was a burst of snoring.

Wu Qi drew his sword and walked cautiously forward; Suddenly, I felt that my feet were sticky, and it was difficult to take a step. He pulled out his foot with all his might, but his body shook and hit a string of wind chimes, which jingled non-stop.

The white dolphin was lying on the bench outside for a nap, and when he heard the bell ringing, he hurriedly shouted, "Who?" ”

Wu Qi grabbed him first and asked, "What about Chu Mohan?" ”

The white dolphin was terrified when he saw it, so he lied: "He, he went downstairs......"

"You dare to lie to me?" Wu Qi slapped him in the face.

"The hero spares his life, but the villain doesn't dare." The white dolphin pleaded.

Wu Qi knocked him to the ground with a punch and said, "Okay, Lao Tzu is waiting for him here." ”

After a while, the white dolphin was bold and asked timidly, "Good man, what are you looking for him?" ”

"Hmph, Lao Tzu is here to avenge Marquis Jingyuan!"

"What, Marquis Jingyuan......" Bai Dolphin pretended not to know.

"Don't bother, or Lao Tzu will kill you with one sword!" Wu Qi shouted angrily.

As soon as the words fell, Chu Qing went up to the second floor. It turned out that he suddenly found that Wang Jie was missing, and he couldn't help but be suspicious, so he found an excuse to leave King Hui. After arriving at Kuixing Pavilion, he heard that the wind chimes were ringing upstairs, so he hurriedly rushed up with the owl.

When he entered the house, he saw a black shadow jumping out of the window, and his heart couldn't help but tighten.

Inside the hospital. Under the Qiongxiang Pavilion.

Wang Jie and Ping Yu chatted for a while, and suddenly heard a burst of shouts in the distance, and suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Wang Jie got up and paced a few steps, and while he was contemplating, he saw Wu Qi running over from the bushes, so he had a plan and motioned for him to hide in the deep grass behind the pavilion. It didn't take long for Chu Qing to lead his troops to chase in front of Qiongxiang Pavilion, only to see Wang Jie hugging Pingyu, and his ears and temples were not affectionate.

Chu Qing pretended to cough dryly, stepped forward and saluted, and asked him if he could see the thief?

"What thief?" Wang Jie's eyebrows were angry, "The princess and me are here, is it not the two of us?" ”

Chu Qingqiang held back the anger in his heart and said, "Only then did a thief steal, and he escaped and disappeared here." ”

"It's ridiculous!" Ping Yu scolded sharply, "You don't go to catch the thief, why are you staring at this princess!" ”

Chu Qing snorted, turned around and left. Subsequently, he led people to search the palace carefully, but found nothing.

Chu Qing rushed back to Kuixing Pavilion, and the white dolphin stepped forward and said, "Thanks to the careful child, he smeared a layer of honey on the ground, and tied wind chimes around it, otherwise it would be bad." ”

Chu Qing said "um", glanced at Pixiu on the table and said, "But here to steal?" ”

"This ...... It doesn't look like a thief," the white dolphin shook her head, "The minions have carefully checked, and none of the valuables in the room have been lost. ”

"So, what does he want?" Chu Qing fell into deep thought.

After being silent for a while, Bai Dolphin suddenly remembered something, "That's right, Childe; This person kept saying that he wanted to avenge the Marquis of Jingyuan. ”

"Marquis ...... Jingyuan"

"Yes, he said it to the minions himself."

"This ...... Marquis Jingyuan is dead, and his son Mintai is imprisoned, who will he be? Chu Qing looked confused.

"Childe, it shouldn't be the rest of the party......

Chu Qing listened thoughtfully and nodded.

Chu Mohan was awakened early, and when he heard that Chu Qing had returned to the house, he hurriedly called him to the inner room and asked if he had caught the thief?

"Nope." Chu Qing paused, "The child suspects that this person is not stealing, but is coming for you." ”

"What, rushing at me......"

"Yes, he said it was to avenge Asno."

Chu Mohan's body trembled a few times when he heard this, and he exclaimed: "Revenge...... How good is that? ”

Chu Qing sneered and persuaded his father not to panic; said that he had a plan to lure this gang of thieves out of the net. Then he got close to Chu Mohan and said the plan in his heart......
