On the other side of the long street, Zhu Jinghong was sitting in a spacious sedan chair, eating oranges with Erlang's legs crossed.

In the place next to him, it was Yinglian who was sitting for him, who was removing the fibers from the oranges for him at the moment, and every petal was cleaned clean.

When Zhu Jinghong was eating deliciously, he heard Yinglian say: "Thirteenth Master, you better eat less!" ”

Eyes swept to Yinglian, Zhu Jinghong said with an unhappy face: "What...... Ask you to peel an orange, you're still not happy? ”

Yinglian shook her head and said, "No...... When she came, Miss Bao said that if you eat too many oranges, you will get on fire, and tell me that you will eat less! ”

Sitting up straight, patting the broken things in his hands, Zhu Jinghong held Yinglian's shoulders and asked, "Then you listen to me...... Or listen to her? ”

Yinglian didn't answer directly, but said, "Thirteenth Master, Sister Bao is also thinking about you!" ”

"This girl...... How to turn your elbow outward! ”

saw Yinglian replied solemnly: "The thirteenth master has forgotten, Miss Bao is a slave master, how can she make her elbow turn out!" ”

"It's really hard wings, and now I dare to talk back......"

After that, Zhu Jinghong took Yinglian into his arms, and just as he was about to do something bad, there was a sound of prayer outside.

"Thirteenth Master, Jinyi Wei Li Wenzhao is here to report!"

Letting go of Yinglian, Zhu Jinghong ordered: "Let him come!" ”

"Yes!"

After a few breaths, Li Wenzhao appeared outside the sedan chair, and said while walking forward: "Thirteenth master...... I found a white lotus thief in front of me, and I prepared gunpowder to be against you, so I asked the Thirteenth Master to take a detour to avoid ......"

As soon as he heard that someone was going to assassinate him, Zhu Jinghong only felt bitter.

Why did these White Lotus thieves fall in love with him......

After ordering the sedan car to stop, Zhu Jinghong said slowly: "Li Wenzhao ......"

Hearing that Zhu Jinghong's tone was not very good, Li Wenzhao hurriedly replied: "The minister is here!" ”

"You came to the capital to clean up the White Lotus traitors full-time, and the last time you arrested it was huge, but you almost messed things up......"

"I encountered this kind of thing again today, this is my third assassination, it can be seen that the White Lotus traitor is becoming more and more rampant, don't you think...... Should I be given an explanation? ”

From Zhu Jinghong's tone, Li Wenzhao felt that anger was about to erupt, which made him tremble.

If he reports to the emperor for this reason, he, the deputy Qianhu, will not do it.

"Thirteenth Master...... It's a dereliction of duty! Li Wenzhao held back this sentence.

Although he said this, he felt wronged in his heart and thought that he could not be blamed for this incident.

The White Lotus Sect has been inherited for more than a thousand years, and the Ming Dynasty has not been wiped out for more than 300 years, how can he, Li Wenzhao, have this ability.

"Hurry up and find out......," Zhu Jinghong reprimanded.

"Yes!"

After Li Wenzhao left, Zhu Jinghong instructed again: "Stop first, send a message to Wang Jie, and let them find another way!" ”

"Yes!"

So, the whole team stopped, and under the coordination of Wang Jie, the guard, all the idle people within twenty zhang around Zhu Jinghong's sedan chair were emptied.

Soon, a new route was set, but Zhu Jinghong did not give the order to set off, he was waiting for the result of Jinyiwei's side.

If he can't catch the thief, he may have to go home for safety, which is good for him and for the good of others.

After all, if something happens to him, I don't know how many people will be implicated.

Let's say that Chen Yuntai is here, he and Liu Xianglian returned to their original place, but they didn't see the leading White Lotus thief.

"Did you escape?"

Liu Xianglian's voice fell, and she heard Chen Yuntai scold: "Search for me!" ”

A group of dozens of people quickly dispersed and searched around the attic.

The nearby soldiers also rushed to surround this area, and it was basically impossible for people to escape.

The men of the White Lotus Sect also discovered this, so he already had the idea of death, and planned to pull a few more court eagle dogs on his back.

At this moment, he was hiding on the second floor of a house, staring at the Jinyi guard and the officers and soldiers gradually approaching.

However, because of his own nervousness, he forgot to close the door when he entered the house, and was discovered by Chen Yuntai.

This time Zhu Jinghong traveled, except for the houses along the way to be emptied, all doors and windows had to be closed.

At the moment, everything around is well closed, except for one door that is wide open, which looks out of place, and it is extremely normal to be discovered.

Although the trace of the thief had been confirmed, Chen Yuntai did not make a noise, but ordered his subordinates not to approach and surrounded the thief's hiding place.

I only heard Chen Yuntai instruct: "The thief has gunpowder, go and fetch some waterwheels, and he won't be able to get away with the gunpowder wet!" ”

If you are directly tough, it is easy to cause casualties, and it will be difficult for him to cause trouble, so Chen Yuntai must handle this matter perfectly.

"Your Excellency...... Why bother, I'll sneak up and see! ”

Hearing Liu Xianglian's invitation, Chen Yuntai looked suspicious: "You...... Will it work? ”

Liu Xianglian replied: "One-on-one...... I haven't been afraid of anyone yet! ”

He still has some confidence in his martial arts, and he dares to take the initiative to fight at this moment.

Compared with recovering the title deed, if you can really kill the thief, then the benefits are too many.

"Good...... Go for it! ”

The windows upstairs were closed, and it was difficult for the water truck to work, so Chen Yuntai agreed to let him try.

It's good to get things done, but if the gunpowder explodes, Liu Xianglian will die alone, and he will be relatively easy to explain.

"My lord borrowed my crossbow machine, and gave me a short knife, and at the same time negotiated with him on the east side, and I climbed up from the west wall!"

Hearing Liu Xianglian's thoughtful thoughts, Chen Yuntai felt much more at ease, so he gave an order according to his request.

"Listen, people inside, you are besieged and cannot escape...... As long as you come out by yourself, this official can spare your life! ”

When the men of the White Lotus Sect learned that they were exposed, they were no longer hiding at this moment, and shouted loudly: "The dog of the imperial court, if you have the ability, you will come to arrest your grandfather!" ”

"Lao Tzu is not afraid of death, as long as you can pull a few pads, your grandfather will not lose!"

Here, Chen Yuntai sprayed with this person, and Liu Xianglian tiptoed up to the second floor, took out a short knife and opened a hole in the window paper.

Through the small hole, Liu Xianglian saw the situation inside.

I saw that the man in the lead was looking ahead, holding a barrel in his arms and a fire fold in his hand, and there was a lead on one side of the barrel.

If you want not to ignite the gunpowder, you have to start with the fire breaker, preferably with an arrow in the arm...... Liu Xianglian thought secretly.

After carefully observing the window and finding that the door was hidden, Liu Xianglian had already made up her mind.

I saw that he tore open the careful window paper, revealing a larger observation area, and then Liu Xianglian picked up the crossbow machine.

As a descendant of the declining martial arts, Liu Xianglian was no stranger to the crossbow machine, and at this moment he had aimed at the man's arm through Wangshan.

Taking a deep breath, Liu Xianglian pulled the hanging knife, and a sharp arrow shot out quickly, but it missed the target's arm.

Under the pain, the man did not hold it steady, and the fire broke and fell to the ground.

When his first reaction was to turn around and want to see what was going on, Liu Xianglian had already pushed open the window and killed him with a short knife.

He must hurry up and subdue the other party before he can pick up the fire fold.

The person from the White Lotus Sect also realized the problem, so he ignored Liu Xianglian who rushed in, but endured the severe pain and leaned over to pick up the fire fold.

However, Liu Xianglian raised her hand and threw another arrow, which happened to hit the person in the mouth, and forced him to straighten up immediately under the conditioned reflex.

At this moment, Liu Xianglian approached with a knife and kicked the person aside with a knife.

Then he picked up the powder keg on the ground and threw it at the staircase, which completely ruled out the danger.

"Come and help!" Liu Xianglian yelled.
