Are you crazy? Who asked you to hunt for treasures in the emperor's harem?

The bright moon is in the sky,

Zhenbeihou Mansion,

Ye Fan, Liu Mengying, and Liu Ran all ate several pieces of moon cakes with tea, and they were all a little stuffed.

"Speaking of which, father, why are people in Jiangzhou City so taboo about mooncakes? My eldest brother and I asked many shops but no one sold them... In the end, we just bought the ingredients to make them~"

Liu Mengying lay lazily on the wicker chair. She looked at the bright moon in the sky and muttered.

"Yes, Senior Liu...I heard that Liu Laizi seemed to be related to some previous royal family?"

Ye Fan took a sip of tea and answered curiously.

"Actually, I'm not very clear about this..."

Liu Ran frowned slightly, "It's similar to the cabin by Yueluo Lake... The Mingyuan royal family has almost wiped out all the people and things related to the previous royal family..."

"Unlike the clues to the amazing treasure hidden in the cabin, almost everyone knows about the relationship between the previous royal family and mooncakes..."

"According to legend, the royal family of the previous dynasty was very obsessed with eating mooncakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival... For them, this was a very important custom... Because of this, the people were taboo about the terms mooncakes and Mid-Autumn cakes. ……….Of course no one dares to sell it…After all, it is related to the previous royal family, but it is a major crime to punish the Nine Clan…”

"There are some who are timid and don't even dare to eat ordinary biscuits on the Mid-Autumn Festival for fear of getting into trouble!"

At this point, Liu Ran sighed slightly.

"That's it~"

Liu Mengying's eyes suddenly lit up, and she thought of a possibility, "Big brother, aren't you from the previous royal family?"

"I'm not sure~"

Ye Fan scratched his head, "I was picked up by the old man Zhan Gua... and then lived in the lunatic asylum on the mountain for many years... The old man Zhan Gua didn't tell me anything about the Mingyuan royal family... even Before I came down the mountain, I didn’t even know what the Mingyuan Royal Family was..."

"Uh…….."

…………

The top floor of Zizun Building,

A beautiful woman in white palace clothes stood quietly on the edge of the terrace. It was Yu Youwei. She was looking at the bright full moon in the sky with ecstasy...

Not far behind Yu Youwei was a slim figure wearing purple gauze and a cyan mask, but it was Ning Zimo.

Ning Zimo looked at Yu Youwei not far ahead, feeling surprised because the back of Yu Youwei at this moment was actually indescribably lonely...

....

the other side,

Jiangzhou City Prison,

Lin He had become a little unkempt, and he was half lying on the straw mat on the floor of the cell.

Two jailers came slowly with a lamp in their hands. They stood outside the cell and looked at Lin He, whose chest was rising and falling slightly and seemed to be sleeping soundly. After taking a look, they turned and left.

Suddenly, the bodies of the two jailers froze suddenly. Before they could react, the shadows under their feet distorted and turned into an extremely rich pitch black.

The next moment, the two jailers fell directly into the extremely dark shadows at their feet and disappeared without a trace. From the beginning to the end, the two jailers did not make a single sound.

At this time, Lin He in the cell seemed to notice something. He slowly opened his eyes and looked towards the direction where the two jailers disappeared.

"The prince asked you to come!"

Lin He frowned slightly and spoke.

After Lin He finished speaking, the shadow of a pillar in the cell twisted for a while, and then a figure dressed in black, with a black cloth covering his face and only two eyes showing, slowly emerged from the shadows.

Seeing the person coming, a proud smile appeared on Lin He's face.

"Master Commander, I don't know how Liu Ran colluded with Lei Zhentian..."

As soon as Lin He spoke, he was interrupted by a masked figure in black, "Lin He, are there any clues about the treasure in the cabin in Yueluo Lake?"

"this………."

Although Lin He was quite dissatisfied at being interrupted, he did not dare to express it. He said rather politely: "Liu Ran's daughter Liu Mengying and another one named Ye Fan went to explore... Although there is no evidence, I think Liu Ran probably already knows something!"

"Other than that, nothing else?"

The masked figure in black said without sadness or joy.

"there is none left!"

Lin He frowned slightly, with a bad premonition in his heart. He spoke again: "However, Liu Ran and Lei Zhentian mobilized the city guards without authorization to try to assassinate me. This is enough to arrest Liu Ran and punish him... Then we can..."

This time, Lin He still couldn't finish his words, and the masked figure in black interrupted him again.

"Lin He, have you met the envoy of the Wilderness?"

The voice of the masked figure in black still had no special emotion, but in Lin He's ears, it was like a lightning strike. His expression changed drastically, and he immediately explained: "Master Commander, that is not me...it belongs to Mr. Wang Yuanzheng. mean!"

"Shut up!"

The masked figure in black finally had a slight change in his mood. A cold light flashed in his eyes, and he slowly said: "Lin He, just wait, you can leave here in three days at the latest!"

"Okay......Okay! Thank you King Yuanzheng, thank you Commander!"

Lin He was originally nervous, but when he heard the words of the masked man in black, he immediately became grateful and thanked him.

The masked man in black ignored Lin He. He turned around and walked towards the shadow in the corner. In the end, his body merged directly into the shadow and disappeared.

"Hoo!~"

When the masked man in black disappeared, Lin He sat down on the ground, panting heavily, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.

"Uh...uh..."

Suddenly, Lin He's expression became extremely painful. He stretched out his hand and scratched around his neck. It seemed that an invisible hand was grabbing his throat. He wanted to break the big hand off, but Lin He waved his hands. , always scratching at the air...

"Woo~"

Gradually, Lin He's face turned the color of pig liver. He wanted to shout for help, but he couldn't scream...

"咻~呲!"

"Pfft!~Squeak~Squeak!~"

Suddenly, dense lines of blood burst out all over Lin He's body. Within a few breaths, Lin He's body was covered with bloody wounds. It looked as if he had been struck by countless sharp steel knives... …

"Uh~uh..."

As Lin He's blood flowed away quickly, he whimpered, his body twitched, and then he became completely silent.

After a while, a black hand slowly emerged from the shadows in the haystack in the corner of Lin He's cell. He held a small uncorked bottle in the haystack, and then melted into the shadows... .

…………

the next day,

Zhenbeihou Mansion,

Ye Fan, Liu Mengying, and Liu Ran were having breakfast when suddenly, a burst of footsteps came.

Within a few breaths, a young man with rapid breathing, swords on his waist, and eyes as sharp as an eagle appeared in the three people's field of vision. It was Qin Falcon.

"Master Hou......"

Qin Xuan obviously had something important to report to Liu Ran, but there was Ye Fan next to him, so he hesitated.

"Say it!"

Liu Ran didn't mean to avoid it at all.

"Master Hou, Lin He is dead!"

"what?!"
