The people in Mingtang must have reported the incident to the imperial court, and it was not surprising that Zhu Gaochi knew. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Chen Feng said with a bitter face: "It is indeed because of this matter, my brother should know that Song Qingshan was hired by Zhu Gaoxu, Zhu Gaochu is good, hiding in the palace and being protected from going out, a killer like Song Qingshan, who was hired but did not get a commission, how can he give up? So he simply threatened me." Now the lion is asking for 100,000 taels of gold, and the palace must not be willing to pay this money!"

Zhu Gaochi nodded noncommittally, such a large amount, he also had to ask Zhu Di for instructions. It was too late last night, so I didn't have time to report yet, and now I happened to go with Chen Feng.

When they arrived at Zhu Di's dormitory, after some notification, the two were called in.

It was not Zhu Gaoxu who served Zhu Di, but Zhu Gaosui, the king of Zhao.

Zhu Gaoxu made such a big mistake, although Zhu Di would not be guilty, but he would definitely scold him, he was a little afraid to face Zhu Di, so he had been hiding in the second Qiandong Institute. Zhu Di didn't drive him back to the fiefdom, because the old emperor knew that Zhu Gaoxu was threatened by the killers, and it was safest to hide in the palace.

As for this Zhu Gaosui, he is also ambitious, but he is not as reckless and direct as Zhu Gaoxu, he is secretly cultivating power, and he is taking care of the emperor instead of Zhu Gaochu at this moment.

Chen Feng didn't take Zhu Gaosui in his eyes, no matter how scheming this person was, Zhu Di would not pass on the throne to him. Zhu Di's favorite is Zhu Gaoxu, and even his favorite son can be given up, let alone a Zhu Gaosui.

"Feng'er, I heard that you woke up, but you didn't come to visit me, I thought you wanted to draw a line with the court after marrying An Le. Now that you can come to see me, I am very happy!" Zhu Di smiled heartily.

Chen Feng scratched his head embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, in addition to visiting you, I may have to trouble you with one more thing!"

Zhu Di's smile was immediately contained: "You were happy for a while, and you made me angry, let's say, what is the matter?"

Chen Feng glanced at Zhu Gaosui, King Zhao and himself were also hostile, but it was not a big deal for him to know about this matter.

"Everything started because of King Han...... Chen Feng directly pointed the fuse to Zhu Gaoxu, and then explained the matter in detail.

When he heard about 100,000 taels of gold, Zhu Di almost jumped up from the dragon bed.

"What? Is this killer crazy, he dares to ask for 100,000 taels of gold, can he move it?"

Chen Feng said with a bitter face: "I told him the same thing, but he said that we don't have to worry about this." I'm also wondering what method Song Qingshan will use, but one thing is certain. Killers generally do what they say they will do and kill without blinking. If we don't prepare gold, he will never show up, and maybe he will kill the hostages in secret. ”

Zhu Gaosui stroked Zhu Di's back and comforted softly: "Father, don't be angry, a female disciple of the Emei faction is worth 100,000 taels of gold." With this money, the imperial court will inevitably have a tight treasury and will easily cause turmoil. It's better to sacrifice one person in exchange for the stability of the imperial court, I believe that the people of the Emei faction will also understand. ”

Zhu Di nodded in agreement: "What Gao Sui said is not unreasonable, I personally sent someone to the Emei sect of the ward to destroy the true master, I believe that the true exterminator will not turn against the court for a disciple." ”

Chen Feng was secretly angry in his heart, Zhu Gaochi also saw his thoughts, and spoke in front of Zhu Di in advance: "Father, no matter who the hostage is, after all, it is a human life! Not to mention that if we take out 100,000 taels of gold, we will definitely not really give it to the killer in the end." Money is just a decoy, as long as you set up a heavy ambush, just wait for the killer to show up and give a thunderous blow!"

Zhu Di nodded again: "What the prince said is also reasonable, that killer actually dares to negotiate with the imperial court, and this person must be wiped out!"

Zhu Gaosui persuaded again: "But after all, it's 100,000 taels of gold, since the killer dares to make a price, he must have thought of a countermeasure to seize it." I'm afraid that as soon as the gold is shipped out of the city, it will be looted!"

Chen Feng finally couldn't help it, and said coldly: "King Zhao is too unconfident in me and the imperial court, with my protection, the imperial court can also send masters, how can the killer succeed?"

Zhu Gaosui retorted sharply: "If you have the ability, you won't let the killer take hostages!"

Chen Feng was furious: "I made the situation very clear at that time, it is already very good to be able to safely rescue the Jiaxing County Lord and the Reconciliation Girl, if it were you, I am afraid that the killer would be killed on the spot!"

"You ......" Zhu Gaosui was said to be unable to refute.

Zhu Di waved his hand impatiently: "Okay, okay, I have made a decision on this matter, and you don't have to say it anymore." Prince, you prepare 100,000 taels of gold, let Zhao Lin lead the master of Ouchi to escort it, and then notify the people in Dongchang, and let Huang Yan personally lead people to secretly follow and ambush!"

Chen Feng was a little uncomfortable when he heard Dongchang, and always felt that Huang Yan would come to stir up the situation, so he hurriedly objected: "Your Majesty, why don't you send Jinyiwei or Mingtang, why send people from Dongchang." ”

Zhu Di just made this decision in accordance with the rules, and the royal property made it more appropriate for the royal servants to protect it. He really didn't consider the disagreement between Dongchang and Chen Feng, and Chen Feng's opposition had the opposite effect.

"I'm kind enough to help you deal with the killer, and you still hate it. My order has been issued, if you are not satisfied, then cancel this operation!" "No matter how bad Zhu Di's health is, what he said still does not allow anyone to object.

Chen Feng reluctantly agreed: "Just do what the emperor wants, I thank you here first!"

Zhu Di closed his eyes and seemed a little tired: "Xie doesn't have to, if you can't send the gold back safely, I'll be the first to ask you!"

Walking out of the emperor's bedroom, Zhu Gaochi quickly dealt with this matter, as long as the three-day time limit arrived, the gold would be ready.

Chen Feng didn't need to worry too much, he left the palace and didn't go back to the inn, but went out of the city to Laojun Temple.

The trading place is still the back mountain of Laojun Temple, Chen Feng didn't take a good look at that place last night, so he took advantage of the daytime to take a closer look, at least to find out the terrain, and think about how Song Qingshan would transport the gold away.

Laojun Temple is not peaceful today, and people who come to worship are turned away because the people from Mingtang are handling cases inside.

The deeds of the old Taoist priest have been spread widely, and people who are watching people outside are also talking about it.

Chen Feng squeezed into the crowd, and the people in Mingtang were very familiar with him, so they directly put him in.

It was the dragon envoy Bai Yu who investigated the case in the Laojun Temple, and all the Taoist priests were taken everywhere for individual interrogation.

When Bai Yu saw Chen Feng coming, he greeted him with a smile: "Chen Horse came to Laojun Temple again, it shouldn't be for the case of Laojun Temple, but for the transaction in three days, right?"

Chen Feng smiled: "Sure enough, I can't hide it from the White Dragon Envoy, I'm here to check the terrain." ”

Bai Yu put away his smile, and his expression became solemn: "I brought someone to investigate the case early this morning, although the matter of the killer was not ordered by the imperial court, and Chen Yuma did not inform us, but after all, I have witnessed all the experiences, so I must always contribute." I've explored the whole back mountain, and the environment there is indeed a bit strange......"
