The four hundred and fortieth chapter muddle through

It's a pity that Zong Chuke was hesitant at that time and did not tell his daughter the news in advance. If he could wake up earlier, Airou would not have been hurt at all.

He was so angry that he kept blaming himself for his confusion. Now, perhaps it was the time to remedy it.

"Zong Shangshu means that Wu Sansi threatens you to do things, but you don't follow him, so he risked hijacking Airou and hoped to force you to submit?"

"What the princess said is very much."

"What exactly did he threaten you to do?"

"Your Highness, this," he hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "I can't say anything about it."

Zhuer nodded and leaned back again, looking very calm and majestic, and knew that this old man would not let go easily.

She was just cheating him casually, what if he was so angry that he would say it.

It seems that it is not easy to deceive him.

If you don’t say it, it’s probably something that Brother Jun is concerned about and has nothing to do with her.

As the matter progresses, even if the two ladies have completed their mission, the next one should be the negotiation between Li Jun and Zong Chuke.

Secretary Zong wanted to take his daughter back home, but was severely rejected by Li Guer. He couldn't even go back to her princess's mansion, and his Secretary's mansion even more thoughtful.

I heard that the evil demon had not been caught yet. With his style of conduct, he must know the specific address of the Zong Mansion. What if he lurks near the mansion and commits another crime?

I finally saved my life. If something goes wrong, what should I do?

Not to mention Zong Airou, even Zong Chuke himself, he would not even think about walking out of the gate of the Eastern Palace now.

If such a storm occurs, it is absolutely unreasonable not to give the prince an explanation.

Secretary Zong was forced to let go and had to put his ideas aside for the time being, stayed in the Eastern Palace, waiting for the prince to come back.

On the other side, near the South City Gate, a man in a linen robe, carrying a bag, stood happily behind the team.

The people in this team were rushing out of the city and waiting for inspection here.

The man stood in the line, his expression relaxed and he was not panicked at all. Soon, the team lined up to him. He handed the pass to the soldiers guarding the gate, and then waited respectfully.

These little soldiers are very young, and the oldest is no more than twenty-five years old. Although they are young, they have no lack of experience.

Chang'an City is the core of the Tang Empire. Merchants are prosperous and trade prospering. Those from the south and those from the north are gathered here, and the personnel composition is extremely complex.

Being optimistic about the city gate is an important thing.

Therefore, although they are young, they have already developed a pair of eyes that are as if they are watching the fire.

On the surface, there was no problem with this man. The records posted above showed that he was from Wannian County, Chang'an, named Liu Yang, who did not have a regular businessman, but he did not violate the law.

There are more people like this in Chang'an City, working as brokers and working hard labor. Without a long-term employer, there is no need to register.

From age, height and appearance, they are not much different. It can be said that this person can let go.

Liu Yang's attitude was also very sincere. When faced with the interrogation of the soldier, he answered questions fluently, claiming that he was going to visit relatives in Luoyang and to see if there was any good business.

The soldier held the Tongzhi in his hand and glanced at him from time to time to go to Luoyang. This was a good excuse.

There are too many businessmen from the official road to the East and West Beijings. Liu Yang did not have a regular businessman in Chang'an, so it is understandable that he went to Luoyang to make a try.

However, he still smelled a trace of sin from the man.

He hesitated for a moment and finally found the answer, it was bloody.

The clothes on this man are not expensive, but they are also decent and meet his income level.

However, this problem seems to be on this new cluster of clothes.

This stone-blue cloth dress is cheap and within the range he can bear, but it is too clean, just like a new one.

Maybe it was a newly bought one.

Although the clothes were new, Xiaobing always smelled a faint smell of blood intentionally or unintentionally. It could not have come from the clothes, but it could have been brought by this man.

Judging from his appearance, he was definitely not from a hunter. There was only one possibility that such a strong and lingering smell of blood appeared on him.

He killed people, and more than one person, and today.

Thinking of this, the soldier's nerves immediately tense up and could not let this person go out.

"Let's go." But he gave such instructions.

He returned the pass to the man and then released it. Because of his hesitation, the people who were queuing behind were already very dissatisfied. If he delayed it, he might be suspicious.

The man honestly took it and said nothing. When he left the city gate, the soldier immediately gave a wink with the sentry on the city gate tower. The latter instantly flew down, hid behind the small tree, and followed along the way.

On the other side, the soldier had already written down the message passed by the man and sent it to Yongzhou Prefecture.

There, the basic information about the registered population of the entire Chang'an City was stored. What kind of person is Liu Yang? When he arrived there, he should be able to find out.

He thought he had escaped from the birth of the world and tightened the burden on his back, all the money he snatched from Ningxiang.

Originally, he was a move that he didn't expect that the action would fail and he prepared for the money to escape in advance. Fortunately, Ningxiang had a lot of savings over the years, and hers was his. He felt at ease when he killed people and seized money.

After leaving the Jade Buddha Temple, he came to the West City, found a ready-made clothing shop, and bought a coarse cloth dress to put on. This one on his body could barely be worn, but unfortunately, it was not suitable for him, and it was a little too old.

Long distance travel, uncomfortable to wear.

Furthermore, this ochre suit was obviously worn by a poor farmer. He only had the legend of the broker Liu Yang. Although Liu Yang did not have a legitimate job, he would not suffer from poverty.

This dress obviously does not match his identity.

That's why he carefully prepared a new outfit for himself. How could he know that it was this new outfit that betrayed him.

This time he left the city, he definitely did not want to escape, but for more important things. Ningxiang is a little maid, and there are too few valuable things on her body.

If he wanted to start a new action, relying on the little money he snatched from her was definitely not enough. He had to leave the city first, go to his next nest, and transfer the money he had already hidden. Then consider the others.

The words were divided into two sides. Wu Li thought he was smart and could escape from Chang'an City, but he didn't know that there were already a pair of eyes staring at him behind his back.

On the Yongzhou Prefecture, all the news received by Yao Kui and Wu Yanzong was summarized to Li Jun.

He was finally able to make a comprehensive consideration of this incident.

Before he could digest all the news, he rushed back to the East Palace with the two of them. Time was tight, and it was time to sort out clues from all parties and report to Li Xian.
