Bright Spring

The general said: "At last, please ask the prince for a warrant to immediately transfer the front, middle and rear three guards to blockade the city of Yunnan and hunt for assassins!"

"It's late." Zhu Gaoxu recalled the speed of the assassin just now, and said casually.Moreover, inside and outside the pear garden, there are more than a dozen elite guards he deployed in advance, but they were not caught just now, and the assassin ran away like this, and now he is temporarily dispatching troops?

He stood up and said, "Find some people and a carriage to escort Miss Mu back to Mu's residence."

The general bowed: "The last general has orders!"

After Zhu Gaoxu finished speaking, he quickly left the private room without waiting for Mu Xiaoniang and others to speak.The judges in the lobby were still watching the play with relish, not knowing what happened, and the actors were singing wonderfully.

Shen Xushi came from the corridor and saw Zhu Gaoxu, she immediately knelt down on the wooden floor and said: "What happened in Liyuan, I ask Your Highness to come down! But I really didn't know about it beforehand, so I hope His Highness will learn from you. "

Zhu Gaoxu walked past her and said, "I have something urgent now, I'll talk about it later."

After he passed by, he saw that Shen Xu was still kneeling there.He was very annoyed when his hands hurt, but he immediately realized that he was a big prince, so he suppressed his emotions, turned around and asked calmly, "Did Mrs. Shen write the invitation herself?"

Shen Xu turned her head and said blankly: "What... oh, it was indeed written by my concubine."

Zhu Gaoxu said: "The handwriting is beautiful."

...Zhu Gaoxu quickly left the Liyuan and took a carriage back to Hanwang Mansion.

Sitting in the carriage, he took a deep breath, implying that he was calm.But he was still very furious, the opponent had already resorted to unscrupulous means, and even attempted to assassinate him, it seemed that his face had been torn apart!

What annoyed Zhu Gaoxu the most was that he didn't even know who the assassin was.

The first thing he thought of was the unknown force.The assassin was relatively young, not the woman they were monitoring, but most likely the woman's accomplice.

But Zhu Gaoxu didn't make a decision right away, and took advantage of the time on the road to ponder over it... I remember a line: The reason for my failure was my lack of imagination.

He began to imagine that the assassin was from the Shen Xu family, or even from the Mu family!But all ruled out.

If Mrs. Shen Xu wanted to kill Mu Xiaoniang and blame Zhu Gaoxu, at least she chose the wrong place. This happened in her pear garden.

Zhu Gaoxu's carriage entered through the Duanli Gate and arrived at the garrison office on the west side, and immediately called Wang Bin, Liu Ying, Hou Hai and others to see him.

"Arrest|arrest the woman we are following immediately!" Zhu Gaoxu said decisively.It's hard to tell if it's the influence of anger, but at this moment he doesn't want to rely on guesswork to continue, and must make substantial progress immediately!

Several people clasped their fists together and said, "Obey!"

Zhu Gaoxu said: "Wang Bin, you immediately summon the Quanyong team of the garrison to stand by."

"Decree!" Wang Bin said.

Zhu Gaoxu took two steps on the ground and said again, "Send someone to the stronghold on Rongshu Street and ask if the target woman is in the courtyard on the west side of the Mu Mansion. Then send someone to the stronghold in Liuba Village to ask about the situation on Wang Yu's side. The latest news, report back as soon as possible!"

"Order!"

Several people were very silent, and they all stood there thoughtfully.Zhu Gaoxu was also thinking about the context of this matter.

After waiting for a long time, Wang Bin came back to report that the Quanyong Squad had assembled their men and horses, equipped with mail armor, waist knives, cherry guns, bows, crossbows, net ropes and other armaments, and were fully armed and on standby.

At this time, Zhu Gaoxu unfolded the maps around the two strongholds of Liuba Village and Rongshu Street, all of which were drawn by Hou Hai based on the sergeant's report.

Hou Hai suggested: "My lord, after the Quanyong team of the garrison is dispatched first, can we deploy more troops to seal off the four cities?"

Zhu Gaoxu shook his head and said: "I have personally faced that assassin, and it is quite professional... Great. Once this kind of thing happens, she will try to get out of the city first. Once out of the city, it will be difficult for the officers and soldiers to search her by rounding up. Came out. At the beginning, this king, Commander Wang, Commander Wei and others went to the capital, and they also considered this way.

What's more, if the matter is too big, it will make things more complicated and make it more difficult to deal with the aftermath.It is better to send people to a few city gates afterwards, only a few dozen people are needed to control the entry and exit of the city gates. "

Hou Haidao: "What the prince said is very true."

Zhu Gaoxu discovered that when the ancients used a large number of people, their efficiency was relatively low. Many people were mobilized, but not many people actually did things.

After a long time, the person who went to ask for the news came back to report.

"Wang Yubao, a hundred households in Liuba Village, saw the woman leave Liuba Village this morning; when I returned to the village in the afternoon, I haven't seen a similar person on the road outside the village since then.

According to the report from the Banyan Street base, the woman came to the courtyard of Banyan Street at Chenshi this morning;Neither stronghold had ever seen a young woman with extremely fair skin, and the brothers had never seen such a person before. "

Zhu Gaoxu groaned for a moment after hearing this, and said firmly: "The woman is in Liuba Village! The Quan Yong team immediately went to Liuba Village to arrest them according to the original deployment. Divide a small group of people and rush to the stronghold of Rongshu Street, ready to attack, As long as you find one of the two targets, take it immediately!"

"Order!"

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 2 Not an Enemy

/p>"Catch someone!"

A voice came from outside the door, and Zhu Gaoxu and others looked sideways.Wang Yu of a hundred households quickly walked into the government office of the garrison, knelt down on one knee, and said: "Commander Wang ordered the general to rush back and report to the lord, the brothers have arrested four people in Liuba Village!"

Zhu Gaoxu asked: "Who are there?"

Wang Yu said: "Going back to my lord, besides the woman, there is also a man from Liuba Village, his wife and two children. Commander Wang is searching for criminal evidence, and at the same time sending people to send all the criminals back to the palace."

It seems that the female assassin was not caught?Zhu Gaoxu said, "Separate detention."

"Decree!" Wang Yu said.

When the prisoner arrived at the palace, he was temporarily detained in the house on the east side of Duanli Gate.Zhu Gaoxu wanted to know who they were, and he couldn't wait.

Zhu Gaoxu soon came to the east side of Duanli Gate, first to the door where the woman was being held.The soldiers at the door unlocked the door, and Zhu Gaoxu turned to the guards and said, "You guys just wait outside."

General Wang Yu seemed a little worried, but he still cupped his fists and said, "Yes."

A defenseless woman, Zhu Gaoxu didn't believe she could do anything to him.

He walked into the room and saw the woman was sitting on a chair with her hands and feet tied.She glanced at Zhu Gaoxu who came in, her face was very calm, not panic at all.

Seeing her expression, Zhu Gaoxu was slightly surprised.He looked at the woman twice, and saw that she looked pretty good; but the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes and the sagging of the skin after the loss of collagen on her face had left irreversible marks of time on her.

"I am Han Wang Zhu Gaoxu." He said first.

The woman said: "The concubine can't move now, I'm being rude. The concubine and His Highness are not enemies."

After hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu was immediately curious.

He first said who he was, and originally wanted to ask who the woman was, but she would respond like this... He couldn't help wondering why the woman said that they were not enemies?

But Zhu Gaoxu held back his curiosity, and did not immediately follow the woman's words and continue talking.He cannot be led by the nose by that woman, the initiative must be in his own hands!

Zhu Gaoxu was silent for a while, sat down on a chair next to a table, then deliberately picked up his injured left hand, looked at it and said: "Since you are not an enemy, why did you send someone to assassinate?"

There is a trap in this sentence, as long as the woman in front of me does not deny it, the relationship between the female assassin and the woman is confirmed first!Because Zhu Gaoxu doesn't have any evidence to prove that they are related, the only way is to blow her up.

The woman was caught in the trick, and the initiative to guide the rhythm returned to Zhu Gaoxu's hands. She argued: "We didn't intend to assassinate His Highness, she was dealing with the Mu family. And I don't quite agree with this assassination."

"Very good." Zhu Gaoxu nodded with satisfaction, "Where is the female assassin?"
