Chapter 15 Gamble 1

Zhao Yuan never expected that the woman was actually a princess. In a daze, he quickly knelt down on one knee and said, "See the princess!"

Princess Chang'an said, "Get up quickly, get up quickly, why are you learning from him? Besides, you saved me twice. After I go back, I have to let my father reward you well!"

This stopped Zhao Yuan's ears without any pleasure. He hurriedly said, "It's just a coincidence, no reward!"

Princess Chang'an said, "Why don't you need it? I'm scared to see here, so I'll send me back first."

The deputy commander hurriedly said, "I will arrange someone to escort His Highness the Princess back to the palace, someone will come!"

Princess Chang'an sniffed her mouth and muttered, "Who wants you to escort?"

The deputy commander was suddenly embarrassed.

Zhao Yuan hurriedly said, "There is still something to do here. Please ask the princess to escort back to the palace by the commander to avoid the emperor's concern."

Princess Chang'an nodded unwillingly and walked outside. The deputy commander smiled gratefully at Zhao Yuan and hurriedly chased after him.

His mood can be expressed at this moment with great care.

I also gave Jinyiwei some favors and came here to make soy sauce. I knew that Huayuan Temple was an appearance of a Buddhist temple, but in fact it was a thief's nest. I never expected that the missing princess was rescued from the temple. This was like a big pie falling from the sky. With such a contribution, promotion and title were just around the corner.

If it weren't for the fact that so many people would have wanted to go up and give Zhao Yuan a big hug.

In addition, for so many years in the officialdom, he also saw that Princess Chang'an and the Jinyiwei Xiaoqi had an extraordinary relationship. With this, he had to be trapped.

However, he didn't know that Zhao Yuan was extremely distressed now. He originally thought he could be promoted with this opportunity, but he didn't expect that there was a princess inside, and his situation suddenly became a little dangerous.

The Huayuan Temple case was quite successful, and a total of sixteen women were rescued. Except for five of them, five of them were ordinary families, more than ten others had prominent families, and they were neither rich nor noble. The most important one was Princess Chang'an.

All participants were rewarded by merits. Zhao Yuan was suddenly promoted to the general flag and rewarded 100 taels of gold, while the rest of the Jinyiwei rewarded 50 taels of gold.

After receiving the bounty, they also went to the restaurant to celebrate in the evening. Zhao Yuan naturally had no way to hide, so he simply treated the house to treat him boldly.

However, while drinking and chatting, Zhao Yuan couldn't be happy. He always felt that an invisible ghost-headed sword had been placed on his neck and could be chopped down at any time.

"Sir, you're so ignorant? Now you're the general flag!"

Wei Zhongcai was squirting alcohol in his mouth, and Zhao Yuan was promoted to the general flag, so he was naturally promoted to become a small flag, which was what he expected most in his heart.

Zhao Yuan forced a smile and said, "You drink slowly. I'm a little tired. Go back first and just keep the account on my head!"

While speaking, Zhao Yuan stood up, picked up the wine glass in front of him and drank it all, and then walked out of the door.

"What's wrong with this sir?"

"Maybe I'm not used to being suddenly promoted to the general flag."

"It's not like going to find a good friend, it's not appropriate for brothers to follow."

"Hahaha...just be it, come and continue drinking. Anyway, sir, please don't be polite!"

...

Zhao Yuan walked out of the inn alone. It was already late at this moment. Some shops on both sides of the street had closed, while others were still operating. Various lanterns were hanging out at this moment, looking like they were still prosperous.

It was still sunny in the sky, but at night it was filled with clouds. The thick clouds blocked the moonlight and starlight, and looked a little gloomy.

Zhao Yuan felt like he was in the same mood as this day, and he couldn't be happy, and he was a little confused. He didn't know what he should do next, was he pretending nothing happened? Or was he lucky that he wouldn't have happened? In this case, wouldn't he be a little worried about it? As the saying goes, there is nothing wrong in the world, and people are disturbing themselves.

Zhao Yuan also wanted to be so optimistic, but if he was lucky, the end result would be irreversible. When the matter was revealed, he might be able to escape, but what about Zhao Dazhi and others? Although they are only their parents in name, wouldn’t they be innocent if they were implicated? The Jinyiwei would not be ruthless when he acted. Then what is the difference between himself and killing them with his own hands? They have always seen themselves as their own sons.

Zhao Yuan suddenly became very confused and didn't know what to do.

"Come on... Come on... Wealth and honor are in danger!"

The guy who solicited customers in the gambling house on the roadside shouted loudly to greet passers-by.

"Seeking wealth and honor in danger?"

Zhao Yuan's body shook slightly. The original words of this sentence should be: Take success in detail, seek wealth and danger in danger. After thinking carefully, how many people can achieve great things from ancient times to the present have come in plain ways? It is not that risks and opportunities coexist!

Instead of looking around here, it is better to take a try. Although the risks are high, there is still a glimmer of hope!

After making up his attention, Zhao Yuan immediately turned around and headed straight to Lu Bing's mansion. If the truth is found out in the future, many of his own people can be executed. Now, while it has not been exposed, he will take the initiative to tell him that the only one who can give him a glimmer of life!

Lu Bing's mansion was not difficult to find. Zhao Yuan arrived soon. At this moment, the vermilion gate was closed and the guards at the door had already rested. Only two huge stone lions guarded the overly majestic gate.

The majestic commander's mansion in front of him is now like a ferocious beast. Zhao Yuan has no idea whether he can come out safely after entering.

But since you are here, how can you go back?

Zhao Yuanxin made a fuss, walked forward, knocking on the copper ring at the door.

Soon, the heavy door slowly opened, and a servant poked his head out, looked up and down at Zhao Yuan, and asked, "Who are you?"

Zhao Yuan said loudly: "Zhao Yuan, the chief banner of the Jinyiwei, wanted to pay a visit to the Lord because he came for Princess Chang'an. Please help convey it."

Lu Bing has a high position and is in power, holding the power of life and death of the Jinyiwei, but his vitality is also here. Zhao Yuan is determined to see him now, so he simply brought out the name of Princess Chang'an.

When the servant heard this, hesitated for a moment before saying, "Wait!"

The door closed again.

Zhao Yuan could only wait patiently, and time suddenly became extremely slow. He wanted to calm down and think about how to speak, but found that he could not calm down at all.

Seeing Lu Bing, he was extremely gambled. He won the game and was safe and lost.

It felt like a year had passed, and the door opened again. The servant just now said, "Sir, please invite me!"

"Thanks!"

Zhao Yuan thanked him and took a deep breath. Even in front of him, he could only go through the dragon and tiger den. He had to try whether he was alive or dead.

Lu Bing's house was granted by the emperor, covering an area of ​​40 or 50 acres. He deserves it as one of the most powerful people in the court.

After walking with the servants for a long time, I arrived at the study room. The lights were on in the study room at this moment.

"Master, I have brought it!"

The servant said respectfully at the door.

"Come in!"

A low voice sounded inside the house.

The servant then opened the door and said, "Please inside!"

Zhao Yuan nodded slightly, took a deep breath, and walked in.

The wooden door shaft had a dull sound, and a slam sounded softly, and the door was closed.

"I've got a way out!"

Zhao Yuan thought to himself, and did not look up at Lu Bing at present, kneeled on the ground, and said aloud: "Sir Zhao Yuan, please see you."

Lu Bing was reading a book at this moment, and the book was called "Zizhi Tongjian". Hearing this, he put down the book and said, "Get up!"

He was in a good mood these two days. Some time ago, the family members of the wealthy and noble family suddenly disappeared, which caused panic. The court even asked the Jinyiwei to solve the case within a specified period of time, but the prescribed time had passed without any clues. However, by accident yesterday, these missing women were found in Huayuan Temple, including Princess Chang'an. Lu Bing was naturally commended for his leadership.

He remembers Zhao Yuan, the Jinyiwei Xiaoqi who solved this case clearly. If not, how could ordinary Xiaoqi be qualified to meet him?

Zhao Yuan did not get up, but said, "The officials dare not!"

"oh?"

Lu Bingqi said, "Why don't you dare?"

Zhao Yuan hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "The lower official has committed a death sentence, so he dare not!"

"capital offense?"

Lu Bing's face was already serious. He remembered that the servant came to report that the matter was related to Princess Chang'an, so he asked, "Is it related to Princess Chang'an?"

Zhao Yuan said: "Yes, there are some connections. In fact, yesterday's incident was not the occasional breaking of murderers by the subordinates, but someone had told Xiaguan that the women who had mysteriously disappeared in a short period of time were hidden in Huayuan Temple. The Minister of Rites was attacked, and the murderer ran into Huayuan Temple. It was just an excuse to let his subordinates enter Huayuan Temple. On the surface, Huayuan Temple was actually a secret stronghold of the Brahma Sect in the capital, but they probably didn't expect that among the girls they kidnapped, Princess Chang'an."

At this moment, Zhao Yuan also felt that there was no need to hide it. If Lu Bing did not kill him, it would depend on his own value. The more secret things he knew, the higher his value, and the higher his chance of survival.

Lu Bing couldn't help but take a breath, his face became even more solemn. He also vaguely felt that the background of the person who revealed the news to Zhao Yuan must be extraordinary, so he asked in a deep voice: "Who revealed the news to you?"

Zhao Yuan took another deep breath and said slowly: "The Holy Maiden of Yinyue Sect!"
