Speaking of this, a person popped up in Chang Sheng's heart, the owner of the twelfth floor, among several grandmasters, only he had this possibility, but she wanted to break her head, and she couldn't understand what the benefits of kidnapping the human emperor were for the lord of the twelfth floor, no matter from which point of view, that person's eyes should not be on the saint.

Xiang Wang said

"What the hell is going on here?"

Chang Sheng shook his head

"The top priority should be to interrogate the two forbidden soldiers who were on duty in front of the palace gate last night."

King Xiang frowned, and secretly thought: What's the point of interrogating those two people now, the two of them were knocked out first, how many things can they know.

But since Chang Sheng said it, he couldn't refute it, so he chose to be silent at the moment.

The emperor suddenly said outside the hall

"Come on, bring the two forbidden soldiers who were on duty last night."

Half an hour later, several Praetorian soldiers walked in with the two men in tow.

But he saw that the two had been beaten to the flesh, and their bodies were covered with whip marks, thinking that they had been tortured all night.

Chang Sheng looked at the two of them, and he was already more inlet than out, frowning slightly.

The two of them lay on the ground on their dying, their blurred vision turned around, but they saw the emperor and the prime minister Changsheng in front of them, and suddenly grabbed the last straw, and one of them howled

"Emperor, let the villain go, what the villain should say has already been said, and I really don't know the rest."

Chang Sheng paused slowly, the heavy smell of blood on the two of them was extremely choking, and Chang Sheng's eyebrows were almost connected.

"I'll tell you more about last night, and I won't miss a word."

The two glanced at each other, and they both saw helplessness in each other's eyes, but due to the situation, they could only say what they had said countless times.

One of them struggled to his feet, kneeling on the ground, his voice weak

"The villain's name is Ji Shen, his name is Lu Ying, last night the two of us were on duty as usual, as usual, when the two of us were bored, they chatted, probably when it was time, the two of us suddenly felt a burst of murderous aura coming towards us, and we were on guard at that time, but I didn't expect that the attack was coming from behind, but between breaths, the two of us were knocked to the ground by the two little eunuchs."

Chang Sheng frowned

"They attack you from behind, how do you know that it is the little eunuch who beats you."

Ji Shen said

"The two of us are also at the level of thin jade, although we can't compare to the masters of the rivers and lakes, but just two little eunuchs, it is impossible to really knock us out, although the two of us fell to the ground, but our brains are still clear, we can hear them clearly, it is the voice of the eunuch."

Chang Sheng nodded slightly and asked again

"Since you didn't faint, why didn't you send a message to the palaces as soon as possible, strengthen your vigilance, and search for the assassin?"

Ji Shen looked at Lu Ying on the side hesitantly, gritted his teeth, and said

"After the two of us got up, even if we chased them out, they ......"

Chang Sheng frowned

"But what?"

Ji Shen said

"But they disappeared into thin air."

Chang Sheng said

"How is this possible, how many of them are there?"

Ji Shen recalled and said

"Listening to the footsteps at that time, there were more than a dozen people."

King Xiang said angrily

"A dozen people disappeared into this palace out of thin air? What are you eating? ”

Chang Sheng asked again

"Why do you say they're gone, this palace is so big, why can't they just hide in one place?"

Ji Shen said

"It did disappear, it disappeared in front of the two of us, we got up and chased after it, it stands to reason that we were not slow to react, and we did see them not far ahead, we didn't dare to be a little stunned, but they were more than ten feet in front of us, and disappeared out of thin air."

Chang Sheng looked at Lu Ying on the side, but saw Lu Ying lying on the ground nodding vigorously, and said with a look of disbelief

"It's really gone."

King Xiang snorted angrily and shook his sleeves

"Nonsense!"

looked at Chang Sheng and the emperor again, and said

"Two, you won't believe these two people's nonsense."

But seeing that the two of them were silent, thoughtful, they were even more angry.

"They're already like this, so they don't still fool us with this kind of nonsense that they just make up when they hear it, they can't really not want to live anymore."

The emperor and queen looked at the two people on the ground suspiciously, and said slowly.

"Crazy, crazy, really crazy."

King Xiang laughed angrily, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

Chang Sheng didn't say a word, silently recalling what Ji Shen said just now.

……

At this moment, on Taiyang Road, outside the city lord's mansion.

A handsome young man stood in front of the gate of the City Lord's Mansion.

"Knock knock!"

He banged on the door.

"Squeak!"

After a while, Little Peach Blossom's cute head peeking out of the door, and her two big eyes looked at the handsome young man.

"It's you again."

Little Peach Blossom said.

The boy smiled and scratched his head awkwardly

"Is the lord at home?"

Little Peach Blossom's eyes rolled, she smiled slyly, and suddenly shouted towards the door

"Mr. Yan! That kid is running for a fight again! ”

Yan Sihai's roar suddenly came from inside the door

"How many times have you said it, don't call me Mr. Yan!"

"Bang!"

A stinking black cloth shoe flew from the yard, and Little Peach Blossom stuck out her tongue and ran back to the house, but she didn't close the door.

The black cloth shoes greeted him, hitting the young man's face, imprinting a series of clearly visible sole lines on the young man's face.

"Get out!"

The young man looked bitter, scratched his head again, and walked away.

Lost all the way, he unconsciously walked to the handmade street, which he has walked countless times, because he grew up here, even with his eyes closed, he can naturally return here.

"Little Bell!"

His thoughts were pulled back by a woman's call, he looked up, and saw that in front of the cloth village on the side of the street, the shopkeeper Li was holding a handful of melon seeds in his hand, and while knocking on the melon seeds, he was staring at him with a smile, and there were a few little sisters beside him.

"Look at his dejected appearance, eighty percent was driven back by the people in the city lord's mansion again."

A brightly dressed woman on the side laughed, causing Shopkeeper Li and the others to giggle and laugh.

For a while, Xiao Zhong felt that there were countless voices of warblers and swallows in his ears.

"Good sisters, don't make fun of me."

Shopkeeper Li was the first to listen, she stretched out her hand to stop everyone, and said

"Okay, okay, Xiao Zhong is what we grew up watching, so we can't joke with him alone."

The women on the side looked at each other and laughed even more

"Sister Li is distressed, no wonder, when I was young, when I was young, the old man Zhong didn't have time to take the baby when he was busy with business, but Sister Li brought our little bell with her."

Xiao Zhong looked helpless

"Sister Liu, don't talk about it, besides, the customers in the store are going to run away."

As he spoke, he looked at the door of a dim sum shop opposite, where two people had been lingering for a long time, and were about to leave, when Sister Liu's face changed.

"Ouch!"

Lifting the hem of his skirt, he ran forward.

Behind him, this group of idle ladies looked at the vigorous steps of the willow lady and smiled coquettishly.

"Xiao Zhong, listen to my sister's persuasion, what kind of character is the lord of the saffron city, that is the immortal in the sky, the eldest lady of the Chang family, hanging in the sky, the pearl that the whole people look up to, the Taiyang city lord who is personally crowned by the saint, all kinds of glory in one, all kinds of pampering around, it is a character who is extremely rich, how can it have anything to do with you."

A gentle-looking lady stepped forward, holding a book in her hand, and persuaded Xiao Zhong step by step.

Xiao Zhong looked at the lady, and then lowered his head, but the next moment he raised it again, looked at the lady, his eyes were clear, and he said calmly

"Sister Su, but she's just a girl doll my age."

Another woman walked over, with a strong smell of oil smoke and less elaborate clothes than the others, but she spoke straightforwardly.

"Then you went to the City Lord's Mansion today and saw her?"

Xiao Zhong avoided her gaze

"I didn't ...... Not at home. ”

Seeing that Xiao Zhong's eyes were unnatural, the Su lady knew that most of them had hit a wall, so she also wanted to relieve him from the siege, so she said to the lady

"Wu Qinghui, take care of your own winery."

The lady named Wu Qinghui rolled up her sleeves, pulled up her waist, and said with a grin

"Su Qinqin, don't worry about it, I have to wake up this stinky boy today."

Seeing that the situation was not good, Shopkeeper Li hurriedly stepped forward and helped to make a round.

"Okay, okay, you two are really idle, anyway, Xiao Zhong is back, I've seen enough of the excitement, Xiao Zhong is still young, he will figure out some things by himself, everyone is gone, Xiao Zhong, you should go home quickly, your old clock has been looking for you for a long time."

The little bell shook suddenly

"Oh, Master!"

With that, he quickly ran away.

Behind them, Su Qinqin, Wu Qinghui and others saw that Xiao Zhong had run away, and they were also bored, so they went back.

In the depths of the handicraft street, there is a special old shop, this shop has been in the handicraft street for decades, the business has been very good, and it is also very famous in the whole Taiyang City.

During the New Year's holiday, the whole city has to purchase fireworks to celebrate the festival, including the palace, so every month before the festival, the only fireworks shop in the city is always so busy that even the shopkeeper can't find it.

"Master!"

As soon as he ran into the shop, Xiao Zhong shouted.

The shop is divided into an inner room and an outer hall, with a curtain in the middle, and an old man over 50 years old opens the curtain, and his face is covered with beads of sweat.

"Come in, I've got a big business, I'm very busy."

The old man said, it is Xiao Zhong's master, Old Man Zhong.

Xiao Zhong was stunned, it was only June, it was not the New Year, and there were still two months before the Mid-Autumn Festival, why did he suddenly have a big business.

"Big business?"

Xiao Zhong asked.

Old man Zhong's tired face showed a smile, and the folds were thick.

"A noble man who lives on Taiyang Road just came, saying that he wanted to set ten thousand fireworks."

"Ten thousand rings!"

Xiao Zhong was surprised, where there are 10,000 fireworks, it is 100 sounds, which is already very exaggerated.

Old man Zhong said

"The guest asked to make a thousand fireworks with ten rings, and they were picked up half a month later."
