Li Cunxu picked up the letter of abdication and blew it. When the ink was dry, he folded it and handed it to the person next to him: "Bring the arrow here."

The servant brought up the arrow wrapped in brocade silk. Li Cunxu took the arrow and took it out of the package. He looked carefully like he was dealing with a weapon.

Seeing this battle, the Jin soldiers present knew that this must be one of the three arrows left by the former King of Jin.

"Father, only one of your three wishes has been fulfilled, and the remaining two will be fulfilled soon." Li Cunxu took off the bow behind him, put the arrow on it, and drew the bow like a full moon. The arrow went to the throne of Liang Guo.The throne made of real gold actually cracked.

Zhu Youwen stared at the throne.

"What do you look at? If His Royal Highness Jin Wang thinks that you have been his opponent anyway, to save you some dignity, this arrow should have been shot in your forehead." Li Congke was talking, but was glared at by his foster father Li Siyuan, Then he stopped.

"Take him down." Li Cunxu pointed to Zhu Youwen, and then turned to the soldiers of the Jin State: "I'm afraid the corpses in this city will cause panic, and if they are not handled properly, they may cause epidemics. Now except for you and the soldiers who are stationed here In the city, everyone else will lead soldiers with me to deal with the corpses in the city." Li Cunxu pointed to a few of them and said.

"The corpses are transported outside the city for burial, if there are any alive." Li Cunxu thought for a moment. "Zhu Youwen has surrendered. These people will be the citizens of the Jin Kingdom in the future. Let's arrange for them to be treated properly."

All the soldiers took the order, and each of them led the army to prepare to go.Li Congke was planning to go out with his adoptive father when Li Cunxu stopped him: "Li Congke, stay here and bring a few people to do something with Cao Shuhua."

"Yes." Li Congke took the order.

"I have other things to do now, so I can't go with you." Li Cunxu walked to Cao Shuhua and said softly.

"It's okay, just do it. It's enough for you to call Li Congke to me for a small matter." Cao Shuhua replied with a smile, watching the others go away.

"If you don't have enough people, tell me." Li Cunxu patted Cao Shuhua on the shoulder and said.

"Yes."

After everyone left, Li Congke came over and said, "Last time you interceded for my adoptive father. I wanted to thank you very much, but before I could thank you, you disappeared. I couldn't find out where you were going." I thought you couldn’t bear to go back to Jinyang, and I thought that no one would be able to persuade King Jin along the way.”

"There's no need to thank you. You are all good generals who are dedicated to the state of Jin. King Jin is only angry for a while and doesn't hold grudges. Also, you actually think that I am a person who ran away." Cao Shuhua said.

"No, no, that's not the case. I was wondering why you, a scholar, should stay at the front line. But what are we going to do today?" Li Congke approached and hurriedly explained.

"We are looking for Zhu Chonghua today, and now the entire Liang Palace is surrounded, Zhu Youwen didn't escape, she should be a princess still in the palace." Cao Shuhua said.

"Zhu Chonghua?" Li Congke read it a few times. It sounded like he had heard this person's name before, but is a princess so important?Emperor Liang has been caught, and if a princess is missing, she will disappear. "Oh, I remembered, isn't this the magic stick princess?" Li Congke finally remembered after thinking for a long time, and suddenly realized.

Originally, Cao Shuhua's nerves were tense today, but now when Li Congke said this, he still couldn't help laughing, and he couldn't stop: "You actually said that she is a magic stick."

"It's not a magic stick to say that I can foresee the future? If she could really foresee the future, she would have run away long ago and waited for us to enter the city?" Li Congke poked Cao Shuhua with his elbow: "But what she said is quite accurate Some, saying that we will bypass the defense line and directly attack the capital, if you hadn't been persuading me, King Jin might have really done so."

"So it's really dangerous, but fortunately, King Jin was persuaded." Cao Shuhua said.

"If you want me to tell you, this Zhu Chonghua is either blind, or Liang Guo inquired about this information, and let her tell it so as to deify her." Li Congke guessed.

"She predicted Zhu Wentian's assassination."

"Then what if Zhu Youwen and her directed and acted the play themselves, they won the throne and created a saint, the best of both worlds." Li Congke quickly figured things out, and of course it was far from the truth.

In this way, Zhu Youwen has taken a big responsibility, and it is normal to think so, after all, the rebirth is too unimaginable.

"Hey, don't talk about that. His Royal Highness King Jin sent people to search Zhu Chonghua's residence before, but he ran away long ago, and he is probably mixed with the maids now. We are not familiar with Liang Palace, where can we find it. If I knew I was looking for someone, I would have brought a few more people out. Such a big palace, these few people are useless, when will I find out."

"I have a map of Liang Palace here, so it should be easier to find it." Cao Shuhua took out a roll of maps from his sleeve as he spoke. "Since there is no where she lives, there are not many places where she might be."

"It's much more convenient to have a map, but why are there so few places? How can such a huge palace hide people?" Li Congke said while gesturing.

"As a princess, she has never done rough work, and she doesn't have calluses on her hands, so she looks awkward everywhere." "Aren't all the concubines in King Liang's harem without calluses on their hands? You mean she can dress up as a concubine? "

"Stupid." Cao Shuhua knocked him on the head with his hand, "The concubine's clothes and residences are all based on grades, can you replace one out of thin air?"

"Then you can't pretend to be a court lady or concubine, where will she hide?"

Cao Shuhua unfolded the map while looking at it and said: "Maybe, she will hide among the actors."

"Actor? The place where the actress lives is so far away from her, and she pretends to be an actress, wouldn't it be revealed when she opened her voice?" Li Congke waved his hand: "Impossible, impossible."

"You see, although the actor lives far away from her, it is in the same direction as the palace gate closest to her. Besides, there are also apprentices among the actors, and she may want to fool them." Cao Shuhua knocked on the map with his hand. "Besides, our Royal Highness Prince Jin loves opera, and people from all over the world should know it."

"Based on King Jin's love for opera, it is estimated that he can do it and bring a batch of good ones back, and release the rest." Li Congke touched his nose and said with a guilty conscience.

"Yes, let's go." Cao Shuhua took the map and memorized the road and was about to leave when Li Congke stopped him.

"Don't, this Liang country has not been built yet, but this palace is quite luxurious. King Jin focused on developing the army, and King Jin's mansion has never been expanded. This King Liang proclaimed himself emperor and brought a lot of money. Building a palace to support the cards, how long are you going to go with such two legs. Bring a horse quickly." Li Congke said, pulling Cao Shuhua.

The soldiers behind led the two horses, and the two got on the horses and went to the place where the actor lived.

"All stand."

The actors were all "invited" out, standing tremblingly one by one.

"Don't be nervous, I'm here to find someone who sneaked in." Cao Shuhua said and came to the front of the team. "Sing a word."

The actor trembled, and spoke hesitantly.Although trembling slightly because of being too nervous, Cao Shuhua could tell that she had practiced.

"Next. Cao Shuhua made sure and waved her to pass."

"Next one, hurry up." Li Congke pulled the person aside and pulled the next person over.

Listening one by one, the line gradually became shorter. "Why don't you just listen to women, everyone listens very slowly. If she doesn't hide here, we will be at a loss."

"It's okay." Cao Shuhua put his hand next to his mouth while listening, signaling Li Congke to speak softly.

Another person stood in front of Cao Shuhua: "The rest are musicians." Li Congke got tired of standing by and waited, and moved a small horse from somewhere to sit on it.

Cao Shuhua frowned when he saw the musician in front of him, he was a little shorter. "Let's play a song."

The man took the piano shyly and played a piece.It is a court music, the famous neon clothes and feather clothes song in the previous dynasty.At the end of the song, Cao Shuhua had no intention of letting him go: "Let's play another Liangzhou Ci."

Liangzhou words?How did I know this song.Zhu Chonghua hugged the qin in his arms unconsciously. Although he could play the qin, he grew up in the palace and had never heard that piece of music.

"No? You can say no." Cao Shuhua bent over and stared at the other party and said. "Can't you know such a popular song?"

"I've been in the palace for a long time, and I can't remember the folk songs clearly." Zhu Chonghua replied in a low voice.

"Then I will sing a Liangzhou Ci, you should be able to remember how to play it." Cao Shuhua has already heard it.

Cao Shuhua hummed a verse and nodded, motioning for the other party to start playing.

How did Zhu Chonghua know the melody of Liangzhou Ci, so he could only hum along to Cao Shuhua's.

After listening to her play, Cao Shuhua smiled: "I'm clearly humming Yangliuzhi, but you can't even tell the difference between Yangliuzhi and Liangzhou Ci?" Cao Shuhua raised his hand and tore the beard off Zhu Chonghua's face, "Chonghua Princess, your make-up is quite realistic, grab her."

Hearing this, the soldiers who had been on standby for a long time immediately restrained Zhu Chonghua and tied him up.

"What did you say? I don't know at all. How could I be Princess Zhu Chonghua? I just came to the palace to beg for food." Zhu Chonghua still categorically denied it in this situation.

"Princess Chonghua doesn't need to quibble, I'll take you to see Zhu Youwen, he must know your sister." Cao Shuhua said calmly, but Zhu Chonghua's complexion became worse and worse.Zhu Youwen has no room for change now. One is that he is caught and cannot help him now, and the other is that he has lost him and is about to run away.Now he definitely won't help him, but this man's menacing appearance is obviously aimed at himself.
