Chapter 355; precursor
Redsleeves nodded understandingly.
didn't stay long, and after saying that, he retreated and arranged the task that Huo Junyao had just ordered to keep an eye on Cao Guogong's family.
The red sleeves just left here, and the eldest princess of Ningyang came, and she came alone, and she didn't get to the little tail Huo Xiao.
"What's going on with those three?"
Hearing this, Huo Junyao didn't feel strange at all, why did the eldest princess of Ningyang know these things.
"Not yet, but soon."
"Be careful, your uncle isn't easy."
Huo Junyao nodded, and the mother and daughter tacitly knew some things.
Night falls.
During the day, the red sleeves and the old Zhang in Huo Junyao's mouth walked into the music painting workshop, went directly to the third floor, looked left and right, and walked straight to a box.
At this time, there was no one in the box, and Lao Zhang frowned, but thinking that there was still almost a quarter of an hour before the agreed time, he didn't care much.
He walked into the box and sat down, and the person who was waiting in the music workshop came in and asked him what he needed.
"Just get some tea and snacks, my friend hasn't arrived yet, I'll talk about it later."
The woman nodded and retreated.
Tea and snacks were delivered in a short time.
Lao Zhang walked to the window with tea and snacks, this is the window that opens inside the music workshop, sitting by the window and looking down, you can just see the stage in the middle of the first floor.
At this time, on the stage, I thought that a delicate woman in cool clothes was stroking the piano, but on the empty stage in front of her, two women wearing crop tops and tulle long skirts danced.
The coquettish and enchanting dancing posture looked at the hearts of many men, and Lao Zhang was also a little fascinated.
It's just that he doesn't know that the friend he was waiting for at this time was facing a life-and-death dilemma.
King Qi arranged for the person in charge of the transaction to take a part of the deposit and board the carriage and leave the mansion.
Because the cost this time is relatively large, if you bring it all, you will have to take several carriages, so according to Lao Zhang's requirements, first bring 20,000 yuan, and make sure that you really want to buy it, so that you can save money together and pay the money with one hand and deliver it with one hand.
In this regard, the people arranged by King Qi were a little puzzled, but what King Qi meant was that since the other party asked for so, then do so.
He also made sure to get things done.
In fact, why is the other party like this, King Qi also understands in his heart, isn't he just worried that he, the King of Qi, will repay his debts?
He is not angry at all about this, after all, there has been such a reputation in the past, and it is normal for others to be careful.
No, the person in charge had the money, and the carriage had just turned into a dark alley where there were not many pedestrians moving around.
The coachman suddenly stopped the carriage, and before the people in the carriage could ask, they heard a scream outside.
Immediately after the curtain of the carriage was lifted, a spear with a sharp cold light and a little blood stain in front of it stabbed in.
The speed was so fast that before the people sitting in the carriage could react, they were chilled.
"King Qi will not let you go."
Leave a word, and this person is directly lifeless.
At this time, the owner of the spear got into the carriage, and after first making sure that the other party was really dead, he got the answer, and turned back and whispered a word outside.
Immediately, someone took action and moved out the 20,000 yuan of money carried on the carriage.
Just as they were about to call it a day and leave, another group of people came.
The two groups of people fought directly together, both of them were good people, and there were casualties among each other.
"Take the money and go first."
At first, the owner of the spear whispered, and the next moment, he saw that the other party also took action.
The two sides fought inextricably, but the first group of people won and the money was given away.
When the second group saw this, they didn't continue to entangle with them.
I wanted to retreat with the corpses of my own people, but at this time, I didn't know that there was a sound outside the alley.
The two groups of people froze in unison, turned their heads to look at the door, and sure enough, a shadowy figure was rapidly approaching.
Neither side dared to delay, nor did they care about the corpses on the ground, and quickly disappeared into the night.
And at the moment when the two groups of people retreated, two black things were dropped from the canopy of an inconspicuous tree on the side of the alley.
When the men of the Terracotta Division entered, they happened to hear the sound of things falling to the ground, and the shadow of the canopy shaking.
"Leave two people to keep an eye on here, and the others will follow me."
The ten-man squad immediately rushed out with eight people, but they chased them out and came back after a while.
I can't catch up at all, but I still faintly see a lot of dark shadows.
"What's going on?"
After the captain of the Terracotta Division returned, he asked about the two companions who stayed behind to investigate the situation.
"Seven people died, one was in the carriage, the other was in the carriage, it should be the owner of the carriage, and the other five were all dressed in black, but they shouldn't be together."
"And then found this on the ground as well."
One of the two people left behind handed the two black waist cards to the team leader.
By the light of the fire, the team leader's face suddenly changed after seeing the signs on the two signs clearly.
"You guys are guarding here, this matter is not something we can handle, I'll report to the commander and Jing Zhaoyin."
The squad leader sped away.
In a short time, a large number of people rushed towards this alley.
After Jing Zhaoyin and the commander inquired about the specific situation, they glanced at each other and felt that this was very difficult.
"Commander Zhao, what do you say this can do?"
Jing Zhaoyin's face at this time was bitter, and he had already recognized the two brands, one belonged to the guards of the East Palace, and the other was from the Chu Palace.
And as a result of the on-site investigation, the two had some guesses in their hearts, but they also had a lot of doubts.
For example, who is the person in the carriage? Another example is how did the people from the East Palace and the Chu Wangfu die here?
"Let's investigate the one in the carriage first."
Jing Zhaoyin listened and arranged for people to follow the carriage to look for and inquire.
It didn't take long to find the mansion of the owner of the horse.
Then the two were silent again.
"Get people back to Jingzhao Mansion first, the palace gate will be locked immediately, and it will definitely not be possible to enter the palace, so you can only wait for tomorrow."
Commander Zhao looked at Jing Zhaoyin.
"Okay, why don't you let us do this?"
Jing Zhaoyin was a little big-headed, ordered someone to clean up the scene, and then pulled Commander Zhao to leave alone.
"I'm afraid this thing can't be good today, I'm afraid that if I can't get it right, I'm afraid there will be a big mess in the capital."
It is no secret that the three of the DPRK and China are fighting openly and secretly, but it has always been a verbal confrontation, and they have not directly moved head-on.
But tonight, the three of them all came in, and the one in the carriage was the person from the Qi Palace.
It looks like he should have been attacked when he went out, as for why he was killed, they don't know, but the person who killed him was either the prince or the king of Chu.
It's just that in the end, how could it evolve into a fight between the crown prince and the king of Chu, and they both killed and injured each other?
Some couldn't figure it out, but it didn't prevent Jing Zhaoyin from feeling frightened.
This was a precursor to the three of them starting to move head-on with each other.
