Family Has a Concubine

The entire foot of Fahua Temple was in chaos, and Chu Yunpan's personal guards fought with the imperial army.

During this year, the Imperial Army has been trained bravely by Brother Yandong.

But no matter how brave they are, how can they defeat the elite who came out of the Shura field in Yingcheng.

Moreover, the promised tens of thousands of forbidden troops only got a few thousand people, and two thousand people came to fight. After a while, the imperial army was suppressed.

Chu Yunpan rushed to the top of the mountain in a rush. Liao Shoufu and Lu Zhi also felt that something was wrong, and they didn't care about life and death at this juncture, so they took the risk to catch up. Running to the top of the mountain in one breath, my life is almost gone!

When I came to the top of the mountain, I saw a group of monks rushing towards the Thanksgiving Hall with water in their hands.

The faces of Liao Shoufu and others turned pale, and this really caught fire! And it’s still the Hall of Gratitude! That is the residence of the emperor and queen!

Where's the emperor? Several people rushed towards the Thanksgiving Hall.

Seeing that only a side hall was on fire, Liao Shoufu and others heaved a sigh of relief, and quickly grabbed the monk who was fighting the fire and asked, Where is the emperor?

The monk said in shock: Ah... Your Majesty... Your Majesty... We don't know...

Just as he was talking, Chu Yunpan had already led people into the Thanksgiving Hall. As a result, naturally even the shadow of King Liang disappeared.

Chu Yunpan asked Jingwei to search the entire Fahua Temple, and Liao Shoufu and others turned pale: Your Majesty...

Only then did Suifeng and the others catch up to the mountain and saw that the emperor was missing, they were all panicked.

Sure enough, like a secret report, someone is going to murder the emperor! Chu Yunpan said coldly, Let's go.

Chu Yunpan turned around as he spoke, and Suifeng stood in front of him with a sword: King Zhenxi—

How are you doing? Chu Yunpan said coldly, The emperor is missing, and I want to send troops to rescue him, and anyone who stands in my way will die!

As he said that, he threw Suifeng away with a sword, and led Jingwei away quickly like a god of death.

Suifeng and the others looked at Chu Yunpan's back, their faces turned blue with anger.

Ji Hai wanted to pass out, King Zhenxi did it on purpose! Maybe he set the fire on the mountain, just to find a reason to rush up the mountain, and the emperor who should have stayed on the mountain disappeared, so Chu Yunpan had a reason to send troops to rescue him, and he became famous as a teacher!

Sui Feng turned around and yelled at the Imperial Army: Let's go! He knew that he wanted to stop Chu Yunpan!

Suifeng left another 200 imperial guards, and then left in a hurry with others.

After Chu Yun climbed down the mountain, he asked the Fourth Jingwei Battalion to get ready. He also asked Yuhan and other personal guards to conduct a comprehensive investigation and search.

Liao Shoufu said in a cold voice: Now the emperor is important, and Chengfu Yin Jiatiao Yacha will search Fahua Temple with these forbidden troops.

Lu Zhidao: Now, what about the child?

Isn't the most important thing now is the emperor? Wu Feng sneered.

Lu Zhi was annoyed: The emperor is naturally the most important thing, but the child's matter may also be related. Therefore, we should start from many aspects.

King Lu stepped forward and said: If not, this case should be handed over to this king! Please ask the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment and Lu Shangshu to investigate together!

Liao Shoufu's eyes lit up, and he nodded: His Royal Highness King Lu's method is appropriate.

Things were arranged in such a hurry.

Liao Shoufu, Zhang Zan, Cheng Fuyin and others were looking at the search results at Fahua Temple.

Mr. Zhou and others returned to the palace to wait for news and deal with political affairs.

Zhenxi Palace——

After Chu Yunpan went to Jingwei to transfer people, he had already returned home, and was talking to Ye Tangcai in the room: Don't worry about the child, if it is true, he is still safe now. Don't worry, I will definitely find him. Their.

Ye Tangcai nodded, and Chu Yao fell into the hands of King Liang. That was the worst news, because it indicated that Chu Yunpan was fighting against the court, and even planned to rebel. But that's also the best news. Because at least it is certain that Chu Yao is still alive!

Third Master, I want to go with you! Ye Tang looked at Chu Yunpan firmly.

It's dangerous outside, you stay at home, trust me, okay? Chu Yunpan held her hand.

But Ye Tangcai shook her head and bit her lip: I believe you, but at home, thinking about the child not knowing what to do now, I feel uncomfortable! Besides, I think staying by your side is the safest! I promise I won't cause you any trouble! ensure!

Chu Yunpan had mixed feelings in his heart. His actions were undoubtedly treason, and King Liang would definitely use various methods, even blackmailing him with his family. Therefore, it is indeed the safest for Ye Tangcai to stay by his side.

Chu Yunpan nodded: Okay, follow me! You will suffer a little bit, so bear with it.

I'm not afraid. I went to Qingniu Mountain to find you by myself last year, and I was never afraid. Ye Tangcai said.

Chu Yunpan's heart was shaken when he thought of what happened last year, and he hugged her tightly.

After hugging for a while, Chu Yunpan suddenly remembered something: You don't know how to ride a horse.

Ye Tangcai said: I can learn it right away!

Chu Yunpan turned around and patted her head: Now, go to the martial arts field, and I will teach you.

The two came to the huge martial arts arena at home, and Chu Yunpan asked someone to bring out a horse. Chu Yunpan had already prepared this horse, it was picked for Ye Tang.

Last year, she said that she would let him teach her how to ride a horse, but a series of things such as giving birth to a child were delayed. Later, when he had free time, Chu Yunpan didn't want to teach either.

He only taught her when he thought of Yingcheng, thinking that the first time she rode a horse was in that vast land.

As a result, he had been looking forward to playing things and turned into grinding his guns in front of the battle.

He took her for a walk first, and then let her get on the horse by herself. Riding a horse is easy to say. It is difficult to say, and it is also very difficult.

As long as you have hands and feet and are brave enough, you can learn it right away, but it's just not stable.

Ye Tangcai was originally intelligent, and the horse was also extremely docile. I just got on the horse, and I almost know how to do it. After two laps, I have learned it.

But Chu Yunpan was afraid that she would be unstable and fall, so he took her to practice for another hour. Then go out.

When he came to the Chuihua Gate, Chu Yunpan asked Yuyang to pick up Wen and Ye Yun, and first hid the three of them, but he was arrested when he couldn't get them.

This is the location and method that Chu Yunpan arranged early to protect important people. It was supposed to be used last year when he helped the King of Liang raise his army, but the general trend at that time turned out to be the winning chance, so there was no need to activate it.

But now, he is not sure about King Liang.

Huiran watched over the house, and Ye Tangcai went out with Chu Yunpan to search.

But Chu Yunpan said that it was taught by King Liang, and King Liang knew Chu Yunpan's methods and methods clearly, and even Suifeng and other interested people obstructed him. Three days in a row, he still has not found King Liang's whereabouts.

But during this period, King Liang didn't make Yandong, He Pei and others come out to stop Chu Yunpan's actions. I don't know if it was because he was afraid of revealing his whereabouts, or it was like leaving each other with the last leeway.

It's as if Chu Yunpan hasn't announced what King Liang did until now, so as to defame King Liang's reputation to the outside world!

Until the last moment, Chu Yunpan didn't want to really be his enemy. Otherwise, if the matter of King Liang is announced, the people in the capital will turn against him, even Lu Zhi and other officials will turn against him!

But this matter is not under Chu Yunpan's control, and this matter is about to be exposed!

Because with the progress of the child's matter, the spearhead has been pointed at King Liang!

At that time in the court, when Lu Zhi and others were discussing, they realized one thing, that is, the birth dates of the missing children were all the same!

After the Fahua Temple incident, the King of Lu, the Secretary of the Ministry of Justice, and Lu Zhi took this point to investigate the birth dates of the children who disappeared on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month and in mid-July last year. Boiling!

Because these children were all born on the tenth day of September, the child who disappeared in July last year is now five years old. The one who disappeared on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month was already five years old.

Add in the few noble children who disappeared a few days ago, exactly one hundred people!

Boys and girls fifty each!

Although the government wanted to keep this matter secret, the families of these missing children would always be alarmed during the investigation. These people are in grief and have been exposed to pain points. In fact, some of them still have illusions, so how can they not ask.

There is no impenetrable wall, and in less than two days, the news of the missing child spread throughout the entire capital.

Some said: Those children were all born on the same day, and there are a hundred of them, fifty boys and fifty girls each. Is this a ritual ceremony?

Does it need to be said? Thirty years ago, the old prince Jin was obsessed with drinking the blood of children to make Yang, or he only drank the blood of children born in the same year. He killed more than 30 children! He was finally executed. Tsk tsk, Not to mention, I heard that it is really effective. The old prince Jin is in his sixties, but he looks like he is in his forties.

real or fake?

of course it's true.

Then this thing is definitely used to do evil tricks!

The incident in front of me...the people behind are actually kidnapping people at the emperor's feet, and they kidnapped a hundred people at once! That's an evil spirit! I really don't know who did such a thing.

I do remember something. Last year... He whispered and pointed to the sky, Didn't he suddenly call dozens of alchemists into the palace when he ascended the throne? He also organized 30,000 golden scale guards and sent them to the common people! I heard that At that time, I was obsessed with alchemy, looking for the elixir!

Ah! The people around whispered.

Later, it was not until the beginning of July...that group of monks and Taoists were released from the palace. Then, in the middle and late July, abductees appeared, and a large number of boys and girls born on the tenth day of September disappeared!

This this……

After these children disappeared, the court did not make any effort to track them down, and finally nothing happened. As a result, the second and third times happened in a row...

What kind of way to catch dealers? It's like a thief calling for a thief.

Some people also said that the emperor went out of the palace to Fahua Temple to pray for the late emperor. As a result, no one is there now! It just so happened that several noble children disappeared at this time, making up a hundred people!

Maybe, I'm going to do it now!

Is the child still alive?

Do you know when to do it?

I don't know. It's very possible that the ceremony has already been done and the children are all dead. Maybe it hasn't been done yet.

About this matter, once it was passed on to two, and then to the third, in less than half a day, the city was full of storms!

Not to mention the common people, even Liao Shoufu, Lu Zhi, Zhang Zan and others believed 60% to 70%.

After all, it is really reasonable to think about it this way, and now I can figure out everything that I couldn't figure out before. Why no matter how you investigate, the clues will be pinched, that's because the person sitting on the dragon chair won't let you investigate!

Everyone guessed it, and they were shocked and angry.

It would be fine if it was just the children of the common people, but now even the children of noble families are kidnapped and killed, who knows if they will be used again in the future.

The entire capital was shocked and annoyed by the emperor. Those parents who lost their children, some of them were bold, ran to the palace gate and cried, but they were driven away by the imperial army. One or two lost their minds and broke into the palace directly. He was seriously injured by the guards guarding the gate.

These people even ran to the gate of Zhenxi Palace to help, but the gate of the Palace was closed tightly.

The king of Lu hurried over and placed these people in the yamen first, saying that no matter whether the children lived or died, they would always give them an explanation.

Chu Yunpan and Ye Tangcai searched for someone in the dark, and soon it will be the tenth day of April, and one more day, it will be the eleventh day of April.

Chu Yunpan led the army in a forest thirty miles away from Beijing, discussing the route.

The direction we've detected now is the direction of Hengzhou in front, Taihang Mountain to the south, and Donglai Mountain on Hehe to the east.

While discussing, I saw a Jingwei running over: My lord, His Royal Highness King Lu is here.

Chu Yunpan raised his head: Please come here.

After a while, King Lu was on his horse, and he had to come over. He didn't even get off the horse, and sat on the back of the horse, panting: King Zhenxi.

His Royal Highness King Lu. Chu Yunpan cupped his hands at him.

King Lu had a troubled expression on his face: How did you find out?

Chu Yunpan said: There is already a prospect.

That's very good. Lu Wang hesitated for a moment before saying, Does the king of Zhenxi know the rumors in Beijing? To say something disrespectful, the emperor may have something to do with this matter. Whether it is the same victim or... Anyway, the child important!

His Royal Highness, please speak directly if you have anything to say. Ye Tangcai said anxiously.

King Lu jumped when he heard a woman's voice, and looked down, only to see a slender figure, dressed in Jingwei clothing, with a small face smeared black, but upon closer inspection, he could see the eyebrows bright.

King Lu recognized that it was Ye Tangcai, It turned out to be Princess Zhenxi. Prince Zhenxi, you are tracking the whereabouts of the emperor, and we are tracking the whereabouts of the missing child, and we have found a clue. I sent three catties of tiger meat to my palace. If King Zhenxi is in Beijing, maybe he will receive it too.

Tiger meat is rare. When I ate it, I asked more. Where did this rare product come from? The maid who served the food said that it was sent by the stewed food. I don't know which mountain village sells it. She also said to ask the king. The king I'm bothering about the emperor and the missing children, so I don't care about it, I just let the steward go to work. Unexpectedly, this maid actually went to the world to inquire. The king was having breakfast this morning, and the maid brought the leftover tiger meat , Said that the tiger meat was bought from Baishi Village, thirty miles away, from Braised Flavor Tianxia.”

I heard that this tiger was originally a tiger on the Taihang Mountains. It never goes down the mountain, but it gave birth back to the mountain in the past few days and wandered around the village every day. Everyone in the village was so scared that they shut their doors. I thought it would take a day or two. It will go, but who knows, it will stay in the village for six or seven days, and it almost kills people. The villagers couldn't help it, and finally shot it. Killed by the villagers. After killing the tiger, I wanted to go up the mountain to collect firewood. Unexpectedly, when I reached the foot of the mountain, I heard the roar of the tiger. Maybe next time.”

My king heard something strange. Although there is no room for two tigers on one mountain, the first tiger might come down the mountain because of a new tiger, causing harm to the village. Tigers usually stay deep in the mountains, why do the villagers roar when they reach the foot of the mountain? The king asked again. Where is the tiger skin sold in Wei Tianxia. Later, I learned that it was bought by the second son of Kang Wangfu. The king found the second son of Kang and asked him to borrow the tiger skin. He found that there was a wound on the tiger skin, but the wound on the back was not. It's a knife wound! This king asked someone to examine it and found out that the tiger had only one deep knife wound on his back, and the rest were from hoes, sickles and other agricultural tools.

Ye Tangcai's eyes lit up when he heard this: Therefore, there is no second tiger on Taihang Mountain! The reason why this tiger came down the mountain was because it was scratched with a knife and lost its shelter! There must be a large number of tigers on the mountain. The men and horses stayed there! They even pretended that there were tigers in the mountains, so that the villagers dared not go up the mountain!

Yes! King Lu nodded and looked at Ye Tangcai, Princess Zhenxi is really smart. This king thinks that the matter of children and the disappearance of the emperor may really be a real thing. This king will also come to inform King Zhenxi One sound. Central Beijing is in chaos right now, no matter what... it’s best for everyone to solve the matter quickly.”

Originally, Chu Yunpan and others identified three suspicious places, including Taihang Mountain. But after getting the news of King Lu, it became more and more certain that it was Taihang Mountain.

Without a doubt, tomorrow is April 11th, so Chu Yunpan and Ye Tangcai packed up their luggage and rushed to Taihang Mountain.
