After rebirth, I became a treacherous minister Black Moonlight

This is undoubtedly the best good news in recent days.

The reason why Chen Long and Meng Lang went to West City first was to snatch someone from the Princess of Loulan this morning.

It’s a pity that since the last time they parted in the capital, Yuchenglou seemed to have disappeared from the world. No matter how hard Chen Long tried to find him, there was no news.

Chen Long once thought that he had been tricked by that guy, and that he was determined to take his head when they met again...

"Are you sure it's Yuchenglou's handwriting? Could it be that someone is impersonating his handwriting?"

he asked.

Meng Qianqian handed the note to Lu Yuan.

After Lu Yuan looked at it, he said confidently, "It's his."

Meng Qianqian's expression relaxed: "It seems to be correct."

Chen Long subconsciously wanted to refute, but when the words came to his lips, he remembered that Lu Yuan was the top scholar and also the favorite student of Lin Jijiu, so he swallowed the rebuttal.

"Could it be a scam?"

he asked warily.

Snake looked at him and said, "You are much more cautious than before."

Chen Long said: "It's not that I'm being cautious, it's that I don't want to waste unnecessary effort."

Having said that, several people clearly felt that after Chen Long entered West City, he became less murderous and decisive, and more cautious.

"I'm going to explore the way."

Chen Long said.

"me and you togather."

Snake Road.

Chen Long said calmly: "No need, you stay, I will take Meng Lang with me."

Meng Lang pushed open the door with a clang, tears welling up in his eyes with excitement: "Master, you finally realized that I am still more useful, right?"

Chen Long said ruthlessly: "Your martial arts skills are too weak. You can't protect anyone if you stay."

Meng Lang's smile froze on his face.

But the Snake went anyway.

What’s interesting is that just as the three people left, an arrow shot into the room with another note stuck on the arrow’s tip.

This is also Yuchenglou's handwriting.

It was just a lot scribbled on the note: "Don't go! It's a scam!"

Meng Qianqian frowned: "What's going on? They said they found it, but now it's a fraud..."

Lu Yuan paused and said, "Either he was deceived, or he was threatened. These are the only two possibilities I can think of. But no matter which one, what awaits Chen Long and Si Snake will be a trap."

Meng Qianqian squeezed the paper ball tightly: "Could it be the work of Ayi Mulan?"

Lu Yuan said: "It's hard to say, I'll ask Yu Zichuan to find someone."

Meng Qianqian thought for a moment and said, "Yu Zichuan can't catch up with his brother and Sishe, so you have to go."

Lu Yuan said: "But this may be another trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain. Since the first secret letter may be fake, how can we guarantee that this one is real? The best way is to keep the troops in place, or to mobilize all the troops."

Disperse the troops and defeat them one by one. If this is the other party's idea, it would be better for Meng Qianqian and Lu Yuan not to act separately.

The inn is no longer a safe place, and it may not be safe to stay there.

"You stay with me."

Lu Yuan said.

This decision may seem risky, but it is the best way to protect her at the moment.

Meng Qianqian shook her head: "I don't need anyone to protect me, I can protect myself."

"it is good."

Lu Yuan respects her decision and trusts her ability.

Meng Qianqian woke up Tan'er and asked her to keep watch with Yu Zichuan and Cui Hu. If they found anything wrong, they should immediately take Zong Zhengxi, Zhou Nanyan and Yao Qingluan to evacuate.

Before leaving, she gave Cui Hu a map.

"If anything goes wrong, just hide here."

This was a small villa that my father bought for my mother, where the couple would occasionally stay for a short time.

Ever since the war with the Western Regions became intense, the courtyard has been unused.

Meng Qianqian remembered that there was a secret room in the east wing that could be used as a hiding place.

"Yes."

Cui Hu accepted the map and said, "Young Madam, the Loulan people are very cunning. You must be careful."

Meng Qianqian nodded: "We will."

Tan Er took her arm and said, "Sister, I'm going too!"

Meng Qianqian said earnestly: "Your mission is very important. Without you, the Emperor and Empress, Yan'er, and Banxia will not be able to evacuate safely."

Tan Er felt that Meng Qianqian's words made sense, and readily agreed: "Yes, sir! I'll take care of it!"

Meng Qianqian then said to Tan'er: "Besides, I have a more important task for you. Don't tell anyone."

Tan Er asked curiously, "Can't we even tell Yu Zichuan and Banxia?"

Meng Qianqian nodded seriously: "That's right, I can't say it."

Tan Er rubbed her hands together excitedly: "What's the secret?"

……

The moon is dark and the wind is high.

Lu Yuan used his Qinggong skills to fly over the eaves and walls with Meng Qianqian in West City.

During this period, he practiced diligently every day and made a lot of progress compared to when he first arrived in Liang State. If he were to compare himself with Chen Long again, Meng Qianqian suspected that her brother might not be able to catch up with him.

Lu Yuan stopped at a fork in the road.

"I remember the house drawn on the first note was nearby."

Meng Qianqian whistled.

The falcon flapped its wings and circled, beginning to search house by house for the presence of the Dragon and the Snake.

After a while, it came back with a sachet in its mouth.

Meng Qianqian held the sachet and frowned slightly: "I made this sachet for my brother. He has trouble sleeping recently, so I put some dried flowers to calm his nerves. My brother always carries the things I gave him, so he won't lose them easily."

Lu Yuan paced a few steps in the alley, looking at the silent houses on both sides, and gently rubbed the dust on the wall with his slender jade-like fingertips.

Then he rubbed his fingertips lightly and said thoughtfully, "There was a fight here."

Meng Qianqian was puzzled: "Fighting? But... there is no trace..."

After all, the place where a fight took place would be a little messy, but here it was so neat and tidy that there was not even much dust to be seen.

Wait, this is the flaw!

This place is not a long street in a wealthy family's mansion, but it looks like it has been carefully cleaned by servants, and there is not even a fallen leaf to be seen.

"The blood here has been wiped off."

Lu Yuan pointed to the wall he had touched and took out a handkerchief to wipe his hands.

Meng Qianqian looked serious: "Could it be that my brother is injured?"

Lu Yuan said calmly: "Even the sachet you gave me is lost. It looks like it's a bad time."

As he spoke, the falcon suddenly swooped down towards a stable at the end of the alley.

They both became alert at the same time.

Lu Yuan took Meng Qianqian's hand, protected her behind him and walked towards the stable.

In the stable, the two found a jade pendant.

Meng Qianqian frowned and said, "It is a relic left to Sishe by his mother, and he never leaves it."

Lu Yuan looked around and said calmly: "The situation is a little worse than we thought, but it doesn't matter. It's just a trivial matter. There's no need to panic!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes turned cold, he broke off a leaf, waved his sleeves, and shot it out with his internal force.

A muffled groan was heard from the southeast roof, followed by a figure falling down in a panic and quickly disappearing into the night.

Meng Qianqian said: "What a fast movement! Did you see it clearly?"

It was the first time she had seen such a strange and strange skill. It was as if one could disappear out of thin air. Not only did the figure disappear, but even the breath was completely hidden.

"It looks familiar, like I've seen it somewhere."

She covered her head and gasped.

A hint of darkness flashed across Lu Yuan's deep eyes: "Is your head starting to hurt again?"

Meng Qianqian breathed slightly: "A little bit..."

Lu Yuan said, "Don't think about it. It doesn't matter whether you have met him or not, Lao Hei."

The falcon didn't move.

Don't even think about ordering him around, you bastard!

Lu Yuan took out a handful of dried meat with an expressionless face.

The falcon flew out with a whoosh!

Even though a man is fast, he cannot be faster than an eagle.

Breath can hide, but smell has nowhere to hide.

The falcon is not only the overlord of the sky, but also the king of the dark night.

It circled in the sky, let out a whistle, and suddenly rushed towards a poplar tree.

"There it is."

Lu Yuan said to Meng Qianqian, "Let me lend you my silver needle."

Meng Qianqian took out three Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles.

Lu Yuan held her hand, flicked his fingertips, and the silver needle was as sharp as a shuttle, breaking through the air like a dragon's roar.

The assassin on the poplar tree sensed the danger and wanted to dodge but it was too late.

All I heard was a scream of "Ahhh", and a tall figure fell to the ground in a mess.

He tried to struggle and escape, but just as he stood up, he fell down due to exhaustion.

The silver needle hit his vital point exactly, making it impossible for him to die or escape.

Meng Qianqian was slightly surprised.

I thought Lu Yuan was an expert in martial arts and martial arts, but I didn't expect that he could also use hidden weapons to such perfection.

Falling leaves and flying flowers, Thirteen Ghost Gate Needles...

His talent in martial arts is simply too amazing.

Lu Yuan walked up to the man and looked down at him struggling: "Where is Chen Long?"

The other party stared at Lu Yuan coldly: "He's dead! I chopped off his head! I chopped off his hands and feet too! I fed them to the pigs and dogs!"

Lu Yuan put his hands behind his back, his eyebrows slightly raised: "It seems that you want to die this way, but unfortunately you don't deserve it. I am not free to torture anyone."

The other party choked violently.

Lu Yuan curled his lips and said, "Do you want to provoke me to kill you and give you a quick death?"

The other party gritted his teeth: "So what?"

"I'll help you."

Lu Yuan raised his palm and used his internal force to absorb the opponent's dropped dagger into his palm. Then he used his luck to pierce his chest with the knife.

The other party looked at the dagger on his chest in disbelief: "You..."

"Why? Do you think I want to interrogate you?"

Lu Yuan said nonchalantly, "Then you have to kill your companions first."

The other's eyes opened wider.

He spat out a mouthful of blood, staggered back a few steps, and fell in a pool of his own blood.

Lu Yuan played with the dagger he had pulled out of his body, wiping the blood with a handkerchief, and said calmly, "The show is over, and I have killed the person for you, so why don't you show up?"

"Yucheng Tower."

Snapped!

Snapped!

Snapped!

Yu Chenglou clapped his hands lightly and walked out from the other end of the alley with a smile on his face.

"As expected of you, he is the first-rank commander-in-chief of the imperial court, the leader of the Jinyiwei who is in charge of prisons and intelligence."

"Stop flattering me. I've heard too much of it. I don't need it anymore."

Meng Qianqian looked at Yuchenglou strangely: "Did you design all this?"

Yu Chenglou smiled and said, "Yes, I sent both notes. My purpose was to get rid of everyone around you and leave you alone. Unfortunately, Lu Yuan saw through my plan and even took such a dangerous action to find Chen Long and Si Snake by bringing you with him."

Meng Qianqian asked: "What is your purpose?"

Yu Chenglou's smile faded a little: "What I said about finding the merchant hostage is true, and what I told you not to go is also true."

Meng Qianqian said: "But you clearly wanted to leave me alone just now."

Yu Chenglou said: "Leaving you alone is part of the plan. Only in this way can I gain Ayimulan's trust."

Meng Qianqian asked: "Where are you from?"

Yu Chenglou said solemnly: "I am not from anywhere. I just want to protect the royal family of Qiuci, free it from the constraints of Loulan, and stay away from the right and wrong of the Western Regions. I can take you to find someone, but you have to help me rescue the other hostage!"
