Master Zhao at the foot of Mount Qingcheng

The prince was still thinking about it, but Lin Chaoyu saw blood oozing from his nose and ears.

Lin Chaoyu immediately sensed that something was wrong, and quickly squatted down to check. At this time, the prince was already panting with his eyes wide open, as if he had difficulty breathing, and his eyes were bleeding.

Lin Chaoyu caught the prince who was about to fall: "Your Highness?!"

The prince was bleeding from all seven orifices, and there was an indistinct sound in his throat. Lin Chaoyu lay down to listen, and faintly heard the word "jue".

"Jiao..." Lin Chaoyu repeated, and asked, "What is Jue?"

The crown prince could no longer answer him, Lin Chaoyu said to the rest of the Qing Linwei: "Come here, find a doctor... no, find a teacher!"

"My lord!" Qing Linwei came in a panic, before he had time to salute, he immediately said, "The East Palace is flooded!"

Lin Chaoyu's eyes turned cold in an instant, and the Qinglin Guard didn't talk nonsense, and directly took out the things and handed them to Lin Chaoyu: "The fire in the study was deliberately set on fire. I found this at the fire site."

The thing that Qing Linwei handed over was not a blue mushroom.

Lin Chaoyu: "Bastard!"

Lin Chaoyu pursed his lips, punched the dungeon wall, vented his anger completely, and then quickly regained his composure: "Where's the person?"

"It didn't show up from the beginning to the end. Either it died in the fire scene or there was a secret passage in the study."

Lin Chaoyu's eyes looked at the man who was clearly trying to grin after his jaw was removed: "Jue... from Jueguo?"

The man's expression froze for a moment.

When he heard Chen Sanjin talk about Tang Ying before, he wondered why a Jueguo person would know about the Guoshi Mausoleum, but now it seems suspicious.

"Very good." Lin Chaoyu stood up, walked away with a flick of his sleeves, and ordered to go on as he walked, "Pry open his mouth, don't let him die too easily. There are still fish that slip through the net, and two more come with me to the East Palace."

Some prisoners in the prison laughed, especially the shrill voice, which was even harsher: "Hahahahaha, you still have today, don't be ashamed! Why didn't the fire reach you, or else it would make us happy Ah."

Lin Chaoyu just said indifferently: "The voice is quite high-pitched, as expected of an eunuch, the yin and yang strange energy really lives up to its reputation, I have seen it."

The other party was silent for a while, and then yelled and cursed again, Lin Chaoyu had already left.

When Lin Chaoyu arrived at the East Palace, the fire had been basically extinguished. Fortunately, Qing Linwei found out quickly, and immediately notified the people in the palace, and brought the fire under control before it spread.

Lin Chaoyu kicked open the scorched wooden door, and the whole study room was almost burned. He led the other Qinglin guards around the dripping room to look for clues.

It is easy to know that the fire must have been set by the Juguo people. As for why it was set, it is probably to burn something.

Lin Chaoyu stood in front of the burnt bookshelf, looked at it quietly for a while, and then kicked away some of the burnt logs, exposing a wall.

Slender fingers caressed the wall, Lin Chaoyu touched it inch by inch, finally stopped at one place, reached out and knocked.

Everyone didn't react, and suddenly saw Lin Chaoyu draw his knife out of its sheath, and with just one swing of the knife forward, he split the entire wall, revealing the passage behind the wall.

"Some of the papers haven't been burned yet. Look carefully to see if there is anything suspicious. The East Palace will be sealed/locked immediately and checked one by one. No one is allowed to be released. Anyone who is suspicious will be taken back to the dungeon. Let others list the crown prince. /Give the list of the party to the third prince, and then keep a close eye on those officials, and check their activities in the past few days, whether they have contacted suspicious people, especially foreigners." Lin Chaoyu thought for a while, and added, " If someone obstructs, no matter who it is, they will be arrested, and there is no need to ask for instructions."

After Lin Chaoyu finished speaking, he entered the tunnel without looking back.

If he guessed correctly, this tunnel will lead to another courtyard in the suburbs in all likelihood.

There are two places that Qinglin Guard can't control, one is the East Palace where the emperor ordered, and the other is outside the capital.If the prince wants to contact foreigners, this tunnel is essential.

……

Lin Chaoyu released Chen Duojin as agreed.Chen Duojin is not stupid, he also knew to ask Qinglin Guard to let him go out of the city unimpeded.In order not to be discovered, he did not take the usual road, but walked around the mountains from the suburbs.

Suddenly, a person appeared in front of him, standing there, as if waiting for him specially.

Chen Duojin took a step back. At this time, he had lost most of his martial arts, so he had to be vigilant: "Who? The Qinglin Guards sent here?"

Although Lin Chaoyu agreed to let him go, he still couldn't trust him. After all, Qinglinwei was famous for being despicable, cunning, and vicious. What he heard most in the dungeon these days was other people's scolding.

The other party turned around, and Chen Duojin found that the other party was a middle-aged man with the appearance of a foreigner, and his right sleeve was empty, apparently missing his right hand.

The other party did not speak after seeing him, but his eyes were full of killing intent.

Almost instantly, the person in front of him appeared in front of him, Chen Duojin was powerless to resist, his chest was hit by the opponent's palm, and in an instant Chen Sanjin felt a scorching heat rushing into his internal organs, like an unstoppable force The waves of the sea are churning in the internal organs.

That person seemed to want to kill them all, he raised his hand and wanted to make up for Chen Duojin's death, but he was keenly aware that someone was coming here, so he didn't stay any longer and left in a hurry.

"stop!"

Tang Feng also just shouted, Chen Duojin who was lying on the ground was the most important thing to him, but it was different to Wen Renyue, how could such a suspicious person be let go?

The other party didn't know the depth, and Tang Feng was still worried that Wen Renyue was in danger, until he found the black palm print on Chen Duojin's chest and the red skin around him, so he had to stand up and said to Zhao Xuan who had arrived: "Don't let that person go!" , It's a heart attack!"

Zhao Xuan's expression froze, and he quickly chased forward.

Chen Duojin sighed unconsciously. When he was about to die, he suddenly saw Tang Feng's face, which seemed to overlap with the person in his memory: "Tang...Ying, you...you are..."

"Tang Feng." Tang Feng replied, the iron fan in his hand suddenly opened, and a cold light flashed and cut the opponent's throat.

Tang Feng raised his head and looked at the sky quietly.

It was cloudy, there was no sun, it was winter again, and the sky was gray.

A piece of white slowly fell from the sky, Tang Feng came back to his senses, and said in a low voice: "It's snowing again, this winter is extraordinarily cold."

After all, without even looking at Chen Duojin on the ground, he rushed to the direction Wen Renyue and Zhao Xuan were chasing after, after all, the dead man lying on the ground was not as important as them.The dead will not come back to life, Tang Feng can't feel the joy of revenge, but just feels relaxed.

After so many years, Chen Duojin was finally killed.

The other party shuttled through the forest, and brought Wen Renyue and Zhao Xuan, who were chasing after them, to the prince's courtyard. The other party was familiar with this place, and disappeared from their sight after turning left and right.

The two looked at each other, and they searched separately in a tacit understanding. When they heard a slight movement behind the rockery, Zhao Xuan signaled Wen Renyue to keep quiet, and stepped forward, holding the hilt of the sword.

The people behind the rockery obviously also noticed the movement of the two, and immediately fell silent. After a silent confrontation, Zhao Xuan drew his sword and was blocked by the opponent.

This movement was not small. The moment the swords met, the surrounding rockery collapsed. After seeing each other's face clearly, both sides were stunned.

"Hyun'er?"

"Lin Chaoyu?"

The two made a sound at the same time, and closed their hands at the same time. Zhao Xuan lost his balance and fell directly on the other side, and the two fell into a ball.

Zhao Xuan hurriedly got up from the opponent, and reached out to Lin Chaoyu to pull him up: "Why are you here?"

"There is a secret passage in the Prince's study that leads directly to the East Palace." Lin Chaoyu briefly explained, passed his hand cheerfully, saw Wen Renyue behind Zhao Xuan, and asked, "Chen Duojin came here?" gone?"

"I was killed on the way, and that person was so heart-wrenching. We found out and ran here." Zhao Xuan looked around the empty and quiet surroundings, "The Demon Cult finally showed its fox tail, and it seems that he escaped again."

Zhao Xuan didn't realize that his hand was still being held by Lin Chaoyu. Lin Chaoyu was so happy that he didn't let go, he nodded calmly and agreed: "I will be caught one day, and I will call someone to search this other courtyard later. All the tunnels have been dug out, I want to see where they all lead. And the origins of those foreigners are already clear, nine out of ten are Jue people."

Zhao Xuan: "I heard that it is a small country in the northwest. This time, Ruanxin and that blue mushroom, it seems that these people are inseparable from the Demon Cult. No wonder there is no news about the Demon Cult after checking for so long. It's a foreigner."

When Tang Feng arrived, it was Zhao Xuan who was thoughtful, and Lin Chaoyu was holding his hand happily, while Wen Renyue was quietly pretending to be dumb as if he didn't see anything.

Apparently knowing that the other party must have run away, Tang Feng cast a disappointed and condemning look at Zhao Xuan.

Zhao Xuan naturally saw it, rolled his eyes at the other party, and said to Lin Chaoyu: "The other party has a broken arm, only left hand, can you let the towns around the capital pay attention?"

"I heard people." Lin Chaoyu immediately said, "Notify the hidden piles in the nearby towns, and let the soldiers guarding the city pay attention."

Wen Renyue took the order to go, Tang Feng followed immediately: "Miss Wen Ren, wait for me, I will go with you!"

Zhao Xuan knew that he was definitely not what he looked like now, and he must be feeling uncomfortable, so he said "Yo" in a mocking tone: "If you don't hurry up and find a place to lick/lick the wound in your heart, you'll still be annoying the girl."

"I'm happy, I'm happy, I'm willing to go through fire and water for Miss Wenren." Tang Feng's tone became more and more embarrassing, "I'll be there wherever Miss Wenren is."

Zhao Xuan raised his eyebrows, and was still in the mood to choke with him. It seemed that this person was fine, so there was no need to worry.

Wen Renyue couldn't bear it anymore: "Mr. Tang respects himself!"

"Compared to holding hands with others, I'm already very reserved..."

Zhao Xuan: "..."

Tang Feng's voice got farther and farther away, and Zhao Xuan also realized that the two were still holding hands, looked down and shook his head twice: "Songsong?"

Lin Chaoyu pretended to be joking and said: "Call Qinglin brother and let go."

"No, you have a good idea."

"Okay, let's go back to the house quickly." Lin Chaoyu pulled Zhao Xuan's hand upwards, and held his wrist instead, "It's getting dark, and the snow is about to fall heavily. Ah Wan may wait Let's go back to eat."

Zhao Xuan followed behind, letting Lin Chaoyu pull her: "You don't tell her, I won't be with your family, why bother to call me every meal?"

"Can't we be a family like this?" Lin Chaoyu turned around and suddenly became serious.

Zhao Xuan couldn't bear this kind of gaze, turned his head and staggered the extension: "This kind of thing doesn't count, this kind of marriage is originally..."

"Today is New Year's Eve." Lin Chaoyu interrupted the other party, preventing him from continuing, "Let's have a New Year's Eve dinner together, and my father will come too."
