After about ten minutes, when Miaoyu was no longer loveless, the world finally quieted down.

I thought I could rest, but there was movement outside again, and after a while, the eunuch appeared outside her door.

"Master Miaoyu, the prince is invited!"

He wouldn't want it again, would he...... Hearing the eunuch's words, Miaoyu unconsciously clamped her legs.

"What do you want me to do?"

The eunuch replied, "The prince said...... It's just the right night tonight, so please enjoy the moon with the mage! ”

What month is the first day of the new year today? You stupid bastard...... Miaoyu scolded in her heart.

After calming down her mind, Miaoyu said calmly: "You convey to His Royal Highness King Xiang for me, just say that the poor nun is in poor spirits and unwell...... Inconvenient to be there! ”

But I heard the eunuch say: "The prince said, if the mage can't shirk it, he will come to invite him personally!" ”

Miaoyu was really speechless, so he could only hold back the fire and replied, "Got it!" ”

These words made the eunuchs outside stunned, and they didn't understand whether to go or not to "know", but if Yu Hai and Deng An were here, there would be no such doubts.

When Miaoyu got up to prepare for the banquet, at the east corner gate of Yanwang's Mansion, Zhu Yili had cleared his suspicions and was chatting with Zhou Kui and a few people at the moment.

"It's not easy for His Royal Highness Xiangwang to come down, since I am trusted by the sect master to be responsible for your food and lodging, I naturally do my best to do my job!"

At this point, Zhu Yili has not forgotten to elevate himself.

And at this time, he was also thinking about whether to expose it now, after all, he might miss it if it was too late.

I don't know where these people are now, and I don't know when they plan to do it, so Zhu Yili is very passive now.

"Brother, you are so real......" Zhou Kui praised again.

"I'll be honest with you...... The Yan Domain is located in a remote area, and the suzerain with the highest title is only the general of the Zhenguo, and at most after another thirty or fifty years, the title of the Yan Domain's lineage will come to an end!"

Zhu Yuanzhang and the following emperors, the feudal kings all obeyed the subordinate and descending lord system, and the older the feudal mansion, the lower the title, and most of them have broken off the inheritance.

In contrast, although the Yan Domain has also reached the end of its rope, it has lasted for dozens or hundreds of years longer than other feudal domains.

"If you can serve the Thirteenth Master well, you can have him to help you...... It's not impossible for my Yan clan to attack multiple generations! ”

Although Zhu Yili's words are reasonable, Zhou Kui is puzzled that even if there is one more generation, it is a big matter, and it has nothing to do with Zhu Yili, where can he fight so hard.

So at the end of the day, this guy is a good guy...... Zhou Kui thought so.

A few people chatted for a while, and Zhu Yili felt that the time was almost up, so he patted his head and said, "Everyone...... Something suddenly occurred to me! ”

His movements were slightly exaggerated, so Zhou Kui asked curiously, "What's the matter?" ”

"I was in the kitchen just now, and I found leftover steamed buns on the board!" Zhu Yili began the performance.

"Leftover steamed buns? This...... And how? ”

"For the brethren to eat clean and reassuring...... I have repeatedly admonished the servants to be clean and tidy, and those who do not follow the rules will be severely punished! ”

"So up and down the kitchen, no one will dare to be so lazy and throw leftover steamed buns on the board!"

"So what?" Zhou Kui frowned.

"I'm thinking...... Could it be that there will be outsiders coming in! ”

"Outsiders coming in?" Zhou Kui suddenly became nervous.

"Exactly...... When I went into the kitchen, it was as if I heard movement inside, and when I went to check on it, you arrived, so I didn't dig deeper, and the more I think about it, the more I feel that something is wrong! ”

Hearing Zhu Yili say this, a cold sweat broke out behind Zhou Kui's back, so he immediately said: "A few of you are guarding here, brother, you come with us to take a look!" ”

"Good!" Zhu Yili replied.

According to the personnel distribution just now, Zhou Kui took a few subordinates and Zhu Yili to the kitchen, and only six people were left to guard the corner door.

There are no steamed buns on the board that Zhu Yili said, but he is not panicked at all, because he can be said to have been taken by thieves again, which can prove that someone has indeed mixed in.

This is indeed the case, after going to the kitchen and listening to Zhu Yili's statement, Zhou Kui ordered someone to search the kitchen on the one hand, and at the same time sent someone to follow up with the situation.

The news arrived at the general banner, and then reported to 100 households, and finally reached He Wu, the deputy thousand households, and it took less than ten minutes before and after.

He Wu had been asleep, but when he heard the news, he suddenly woke up, and after changing into his robe and armor, he immediately set off for the kitchen.

In the process, he successively sent people to report the situation to the Dragon Guards and Jingying, and soon the entire Yanwang Mansion moved on the three floors inside and outside.

At this time, He Wu came to the outer kitchen, where two corpses had been placed, and they were the murdered eunuchs.

Yan Wangfu said that it was big and small, and under the large-scale search of the guards, the two bodies were easily found.

And this just proves that there are indeed assassins who have infiltrated the palace.

"You are Zhu Yili?" He Wu asked coldly.

"General Hui, next is Zhu Yili!" Zhu Yili replied very respectfully.

He was a lieutenant of Fengguo from the third rank, and his rank was actually higher than He Wu, but he put his posture very low.

"You've done a great job!"

Hearing this, Zhu Yili's heart was already happy, and this was the result he wanted.

In order to expand the Warring States, Zhu Yili continued: "General, in the next sentence, I don't know whether to say it or not!" ”

In the matter of searching for the assassins, there are naturally people below to be busy, and all He Wu has to do is wait for the results.

So he said bluntly: "If you have something to say, just say it!" ”

"Since these assassins are hiding in the kitchen, there is only one possibility for them to go, they entered the palace with the cart transporting the ingredients!"

"Follow this line, there should be no mistake!"

Sighing, Zhu Yili said helplessly: "I was all good when I was here, Brother Wang only came here for two days and this happened, and I blamed my illness at the wrong time!" ”

Where is the emotion in these words, it is simply the "Brother Wang", that is, Zhu Yibin's brother-in-law's life talisman.

There is a word called preconceived, as long as the surname Wang is suspicious, and then create some clues to press him to death, it is easy in Zhu Yili's opinion.

Of course, these are only means and not ends, and his ultimate goal has always been Zhu Yibin, even if the latter takes great care of him.

It is a pity for Zhu Yili that Jin Yiwei did not arrive at the first time, otherwise he would have been able to talk to these people directly.

He Wu had some impressions of the surnamed Wang, and he also interrogated him twice yesterday afternoon.

Thinking of this, He Wu felt angry, and secretly said that he should have checked more carefully at that time.

"Come on, go and get the one surnamed Wang first!"

"Yes!"

The guards in the Xiangwang Mansion moved, and at this time, under the corridor of the Yin'an Palace, tables, chairs and refreshments had been arranged.

Zhu Jinghong sat on the main seat, Nuo Min and Miaoyu were on the left and right, watching the waning moon in the sky chatting.

Nuo Min was actually very tired, so he basically didn't talk much, mainly because Zhu Jinghong was asking Miaoyu something.

"Where is my hometown?"

"Who else is in the house?"

"Why do you want to become a monk?"

Zhu Jinghong had a very strong interest in Miaoyu's life experience, so he simply asked directly.

Miaoyu had already made up these questions in case she was interrogated at any time, so she told Zhu Jinghong about them.

At this time, Zhang Lin, the dragon guard, entered Yin'anmen, and saw that Zhu Jinghong was in high interest on the steps, so he quietly came to the east corridor and told the little eunuch who served here about the situation.

Soon the little eunuch passed the word to Deng An, and then Deng An quietly transferred it to Zhu Jinghong.

Knowing that there was really an assassin and that he had injured someone in the palace, Zhu Jinghong's face changed.

"Tell Zhang Lin to seal off all the gates...... Find out the people! ”

"Yes!"

After Deng An left, Zhu Jinghong looked at Miaoyu and said, "Master Miaoyu, the bad omen you said is here, you killed the two eunuchs in the house, and you want to come to me now!" ”

Miaoyu was speechless in her heart, and secretly said that she came in time, otherwise she would miss the show.

I only heard Miaoyu say: "It seems that the poor nun is not bad, and the prince should deal with it thoroughly!" ”

"I've ordered the guards to arrest the thief, and I think there will be results in a while!"

Miaoyu nodded, and then said: "The thief is sinister after all, so it's better for the prince to avoid it!" ”

Zhu Jinghong replied with a smile: "The mage cares so much, and he really has a deep affection for me!" ”

Hearing this ridiculous remark, Miaoyu turned cold again, and scolded Zhu Jinghong again in her heart.

Knowing what this girl was thinking, Zhu Jinghong changed the topic and said: "Yin'an Hall is heavily guarded, if the thieves can sneak here, I'm afraid I won't live so long!" ”

He really didn't boast about what he said, Yin'an Hall was the core of the garrison, and there was a post within five steps outside the wall, and there was no blind spot in the perspective at all.

Unless you dig a tunnel or drop it at this moment, you will never be able to enter here.

Zhu Jinghong did not expect badly, at this time, Chen Gang and the others hid on an eaves, and there were still two checkpoints across the Yin'an Palace.

Right now, the guards are searching for the two of them, and the patrol density has reached the extreme, so that the two of them have no possibility of going further.

Even where they are hiding now could be discovered by passing guards at any moment.

"Brother, it seems that you and I will die tonight!" Chen Gang said in despair.

Zhao Gui was relatively calmer, he had been thinking about countermeasures from beginning to end, and now he had a bold plan.

"Maybe it's possible!"

"How?" Chen Gang hurriedly asked.

Arranging for these two people to cooperate, Yang Yan really used his brains, using both Chen Gangzhi and Zhao Gui's stability.

I only heard Zhao Gui say: "Find a place, detonate these twenty catties of explosives, create chaos, and then take the opportunity to rush into the Yin'an Palace!" ”

Although there are still two checkpoints, the distance is actually no more than 20 zhang, and it will not take much time to rush through.

"Do you want to do it?" Zhao Gui asked.

Looking at Zhao Gui firmly, Chen Gang said, "Dry!" ”

"Good!"

The two of them did what they said, and after jumping off the eaves, they did not dare to delay, and immediately lit it after laying the lead, and then ran to the alley at the other end.

After a few breaths, there was a loud bang, and the wall where the gunpowder was placed was blown open, and a huge wave of air knocked over the guards trained inside.

Fortunately, these people were not close to the bombing point, otherwise they would have been disabled if they did not die.

The guards panicked, and the doors that had been closed were opened, and the guards rushed from all directions to check on the situation.

This gave Chen Gang and the others a chance, only to see them pretending to be "fart and urine", staggering and running inside.

When he met someone, he shouted: "There are thieves, there are thieves......"

While saying that they had not forgotten to point in the direction, they easily diverted the attention of the guards, so that these people only cared about catching the thief in the direction of the explosion.

The first gate, the second ......

With a heart of great luck and full of hope for victory, the two of them finally appeared outside Yin'an Gate.

However, in the next moment, their longing and hope were all gone in an instant, and their hearts were swallowed up by endless despair.

It's just that only outside this Yin'an Gate, there are still more than a dozen guards guarding, and there are people patrolling back and forth at the door.

This is still just a place where they can see, and the guards on the east and west sides of the Yin'an Palace can support the direction of the Yin'an Gate at any time.

Even if there was no one to support, it would be impossible for the two of them alone to defeat these dozen or so heavily armored guards.

Zhao Gui was worthy of being delicate, and before these guards could react, he rushed towards Yin'anmen as fast as he could.

Chen Gang was only one step behind, and immediately followed.

"My lord, there are thieves outside, there are thieves......" Zhao Gui shouted.

Even if he can't rush in, as long as he can lure Zhu Jinghong out, he still has a chance to complete the task.

In this extreme situation, Zhao Gui developed his brain power to the extreme, and everything was focused on completing the task.

And the voice he roared out did reach Zhu Jinghong's ears, at this moment he was wrapped by more than a dozen eunuchs, and Yu Hai was at the front.

To be honest, the huge explosion just now really scared him a lot.

But he quickly regained his composure, and at this time stood among the eunuchs staring at the direction of the explosion.

As for Nuo Min and Miaoyu, they had been pulled into the hall by the eunuchs, and they were looking out at this time.

At this time, outside Yin'an Gate, Zhao Gui and the others had already seen Zhu Jinghong's figure, and the distance between the two was at most five zhang.

Although there are guards in the middle, this has reached the range of firearms, but the accuracy is not guaranteed.

The two of them were pretending to be eunuchs, and when they let go of their voices under the chanting just now, Zhang Lin noticed something unusual.

Looking at the two people who were still approaching the door, Zhang Lin scolded: "Who are you under the people?" ”

"My lord, there is a thief ......," Zhao Gui shouted in a hurry.

The next moment, he took out his firearm and fired a shot at Zhang Lin.

Although Zhang Lin hurriedly dodged, he was still hit in the arm, but he was lucky not to hurt the bones, but blood still gushed out in an instant.

However, the crisis was not resolved, Zhao Gui threw it away after the fire was fired, and the next moment he pulled out the dagger from his clothes.

was shot at first, and now the thief stepped forward with a knife again, Zhang Lin could only take two steps back.

Fortunately, the two guards behind him were very powerful, and they drew their sabers and came forward to intercept them

In addition to these two people, the other guards around also reacted and drew their knives and moved forward to kill.

Zhao Gui was indeed good enough, and he took two moves with the oncoming guards not to fall behind, and shouted at the same time: "Old Chen, leave me alone...... Rush in! ”

The two of them were already red-eyed, and Chen Gang couldn't care so much at this time, holding a fire gun in one hand and a dagger in the other, and rushed to Yin'anmen in one line.

However, even after passing Zhang Lin and the others, there were guards on the left and right of Yin'an Gate, pouring out and blocking the two of them again.

In the face of these heavily armored guards, no matter how high the martial arts of the two of them are, they can't help everyone at all.

There was another "bang", and Chen Gang's fire rang out, but it hit Zhang Lin again.

Of course, this time it was Zhang Lin who took the initiative to block the gun, because of his heavy armor, so this shot was not a big problem, but he suffered severe pain from the heavy blow.

The two guns were released, and Chen Gang and the others had no chance, at this time they were surrounded by guards, and guards were constantly pouring in from all directions.

Enduring the severe pain in his hands and body, Zhang Lin ordered: "Try to catch Lao Tzu alive!" ”

At this time, Chen Gang was leaning back to back, staring at the armor soldiers surrounded by layers with daggers in his hand, and they were both sad and angry at this time.

Chen Gang shouted angrily: "I can't kill Zhu Jinghong's dog thief, the sky has no eyes!" ”

"Kill!"

Zhao Gui shouted, and then rushed towards the guards.
