Princess is a handsome man

Early the next morning, Ye Zhang and Feng Shenyu set off to Baihua Valley. In order not to attract attention, Ye Zhang and Feng Shenyu traveled on horseback, while the dark guards followed them to protect secretly.

"Shu Luo, who do you think will be the murderer of the prince?" Feng Shenyu asked Ye Zhang beside them as they rode side by side on the road.

"What does Your Highness think?" Ye Zhang asked back.

Feng Shenyu glanced at Ye Zhang, but didn't answer.

Ye Zhang chuckled lightly, and said, "Your Highness should already have the answer in his heart. Mr. Tan did not tell His Majesty but instead sought His Highness you. The answer is obvious."

"Actually, I hope Brother Seven didn't do it."

Ye Zhang looked at Feng Shenyu, and knew that this sentence was his sincere words. Feng Shenyu was pure and kind, and had no intention of fighting for imperial power, but he couldn't help himself. Probably brotherly killing is the last thing he wants to see Bar.

At noon, the two finally arrived at the Valley of Hundred Flowers, and they got off their horses when two little boys came up to meet them, tied up the horses for them, and then went in to meet them.

It was exactly noon at this time, but the Baihua Valley was covered with the sky and the sun, so it didn't feel stuffy at all, but felt cool.

There are many exotic flowers and plants in the valley, butterflies and bees are flying around, and there are cicadas and birds singing on the trees. It is really a good place to escape from the world.

The two followed Xiaotong through a rockery, and saw a waterfall flying straight down. No wonder it was so cool. It turned out that there was a waterfall. Opposite the waterfall, there was a small round platform made of stones. On the round platform was a square table with a chessboard. An old man in his sixties sat in front of the chessboard and played chess with himself.

Seeing the two approaching, the old man got up, and was about to salute Feng Shenyu, Feng Shenyu hurriedly stepped forward to help the old man: "Master Tan, you're welcome, you're going to spoil this junior."

Tan Jingzong looked at Ye Zhang and smiled slightly: "Young Master Ye."

"Master Tan, please stay safe." Ye Zhang bowed to Tan Jingzong.

Tan Jingzong greeted the two of them to take their seats, and ordered Xiao Tong to make tea.

"Master Tan is really discerning. This Hundred Flowers Valley is really a good place. This king wants to stay here and never leave." Feng Shenyu looked around and couldn't help but praise.

"This place is suitable for escaping the summer heat. I plan to stay here for a few months before returning to my hometown. I am old and can't stand the heat." Tan Jingzong said while fanning himself with a fan.

Ye Zhang has been staring at a blue flower not far away. The leaves are thin, the flowers are not big, and they bloom in an umbrella shape. The stamens in the middle are red, which looks very coquettish.

"May I ask Mr. Tan, what is the name of this flower?" Ye Zhang finally couldn't hold back his curiosity, got up and walked to the flower and asked, only to find that there were some small thorns on the flower branches of the flower.

Tan Jingzong smiled and said, "This flower is called Xueyu Yaoji, and it does not belong to our Xiqi Kingdom. It seems to be cultivated from a foreign tribe."

Ye Zhang looked at the flowers thoughtfully, Feng Shenyu saw it and said directly: "There is still a faint fragrance, Shu Luo, if you like it, we can ask Master Tan for one of them, and take it back to the palace to plant."

Ye Zhang returned to his seat and shook his head: "No need."

"..."

Feng Shenyu turned his head to look at Tan Jingzong and asked, "By the way, I almost forgot the purpose of Master Tan's invitation this time. I wonder what Master Tan knows about the prince's murder?"

Before Tan Jingzong had time to speak, the little boy brought the tea, and Tan Jingzong picked up the teapot and poured tea for the two of them respectively.

"This is herbal tea, especially suitable for drinking in this kind of weather." After speaking, he took a sip first.

Tan Jingzong put down his teacup and spoke slowly.

"That day when the prince went to perform rituals for the late concubine, in addition to the guards of the prince's mansion, people from Taichang Temple also went. It is said that the prince followed the temple abbot into the inner hall to chant Buddhist scriptures for the concubine's salvation. The inner hall was surrounded by The surrounding water was tight, but the crown prince was hijacked somehow, and when he found out, it was already two hours later."

"The prince just disappeared in front of everyone's eyes?" Feng Shenyu felt very strange: "Did the host not notice?"

"Yeah, the blame is here. The host was neither silenced nor knocked unconscious. I always thought that His Royal Highness disappeared after entering the house with me. I didn't know that two hours had passed until I told the guards. It's gone." Tan Jingzong was also puzzled by this.

Ye Zhang didn't find it strange that the old man Tianyi could use a hypnotism casually to achieve this effect.

Feng Shenyu took a sip of tea and signaled Tan Jingzong to continue talking.

"So at that time, all the people in the temple were detained. The people in the temple, especially the abbot, were the most suspected. At that time, the prince's guards searched and interrogated the temple, and the people from the Taichang Temple searched nearby."

Tan Jingzong added more tea to the teacups of the two, and then said: "Master Lin of Taichang Temple is my disciple. A few days ago, I received a letter from him."

"Lord Lin, Shaoqing of Taichang Temple? He died suddenly at home three days ago." Feng Shen heard the news two days ago.

"Yes, the old man has also heard about it, maybe it's because of that letter!" Tan Jingzong sighed, with regret in his eyes.

"The letter said that he knew the real culprit who killed the prince?" Feng Shenyu continued to ask: "Can my lord hand over the letter to the king?"

Before Tan Jingzong could answer, Ye Zhang pulled Feng Shenyu to his feet: "Your Highness, let's leave quickly."

Feng Shen looked at Ye Zhang because he didn't know: "What's wrong?"

Ye Zhang looked at Tan Jingzong and said, "I guess that the letter must have told Mr. Tan the real culprit who killed the prince. When Mr. Lin went to search, he should have seen the real culprit who killed the prince. The reason is that I didn’t tell the truth, and then I don’t know why, maybe because of guilt and self-blame, I wrote a letter to inform Mr. Tan of this matter.”

Feng Shenyu nodded: "So as long as we have that letter, we will have evidence."

"I'm afraid this letter has already fallen on the real murderer. Master Lin was silenced because of the letter. Since the person who wrote the letter is dead, why is the recipient still sitting here?" Ye Zhang looked at Tan Jingzong , Tan Jingzong was still drinking tea without changing his face.

Feng Shenyu looked at Tan Jingzong with an unbelievable expression on his face: "Master Tan, you are a veteran of the three dynasties and a role model for younger generations, so did you lure us here on purpose?"

Tan Jingzong put down his tea, stood up and looked at Ye Zhang: "Young Master Ye is really thoughtful." After he finished speaking, he clapped his hands, and from a tree not far away, more than [-] men in black flew down and surrounded the two of them. live.

"His Royal Highness, the old man was also forced. I'm sorry." After finishing speaking, he turned to leave. Just two steps away, a knife was inserted into Tan Jingzong's body. Looking at the hem of the man in black, he murmured: "He promised to let my granddaughter go after it is done."

The leading man in black kicked Tan Jingzong away, and said impatiently: "Old man, if he didn't see you as useful, he would have dealt with you long ago. As for your granddaughter, don't worry, the old men will help you take care of yourself." looked after."

Tan Jingzong looked at Ye Zhang and Feng Shenyu as if asking for help, his eyes were full of sorrow and remorse, before he could speak, he fell down.

The twenty or so men in black in front of him all had weapons in their hands and were well-trained. Ye Zhang pulled Feng Shenyu behind him, took out the white jade flute around his waist, and started fighting with the man in black in front of him. Fortunately, Ye Zhang's martial arts were so strong that although he couldn't break out of the encirclement cautiously with the wind, it was not enough for them to hurt the two of them.

Feng Shenyu hurriedly blew the secret whistle, and after a while, the dark guard came in, and the man in black also whistled, and more and more men in black surrounded him, Ye Zhang hurriedly pulled Feng Shenyu over, intending to Taking advantage of the melee between the two sides to break out quickly, who would have thought that his feet suddenly softened and fell down.

"Shu Luo, what's wrong with you?" Feng Shenyu quickly helped Ye Zhang up, and asked anxiously.

"I seem to be poisoned." After Ye Zhang finished speaking, he raised his internal strength, but he couldn't do it at all.

Feng Shenyu supported Ye Zhang, and fled towards Baihua Valley under the cover of the dark guards. When he arrived at the entrance, he untied the horse that was tied up just now, helped Ye Zhang get on the horse, and he himself got on the horse. The two rode on the horse. , ran towards the woods.

After a while, the man in black also chased after him. Feng Shenyu looked back and saw that the man in black was getting closer to the two of them.

"Your Highness, let me go down. In this case, neither of us can escape." Ye Zhang felt that the internal strength of his whole body had collapsed, and he couldn't lift any strength in his hands and feet.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Feng Shenyu gripped the horse's belly, tightened the reins, and accelerated the speed.

"Boom..." A white bolt of lightning struck down in the woods, and the originally sunny sky immediately became cloudy. After a few bolts of lightning and thunder, heavy rain poured down.

Feng Shenyu let out a muffled snort, and an arrow shot straight at Feng Shenyu's shoulder. The archer had a lot of internal strength, and Feng Shenyu felt that the tip of the arrow had passed through his lute bone, and he was only a short shot away. Going to Ye Zhang in front, Feng Shenyu gritted his teeth, stretched out his hand and broke the arrow that leaked out.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, Feng Shenyu half closed his eyes, he didn't know where he was going, the horse stopped suddenly, and the two people on the horse were thrown out, Feng Shenyu hugged Ye Zhang, The two rolled down the slope.

The two hit a tree and stopped, Feng Shenyu struggled to get up, helped Ye Zhang up, Ye Zhang slowly opened his eyes, and said weakly: "Your Highness, I really can't go, you hurry up Let's go." After speaking, he wanted to shake off Feng Shenyu's helping hand, but he couldn't use any strength.

Feng Shenyu completely ignored Ye Zhang, lifted Ye Zhang up and hid in the grass beside him.

The two hid for a while before they heard someone coming towards them.

"Look carefully, the horse is on it, and the person should be nearby." A man's voice came along with the sound of rain.

Fortunately, it rained, and the blood was washed away. Feng Shenyu stared out through the grass, Ye Zhang took a look at Feng Shenyu, but finally couldn't hold on, and passed out.

Suddenly someone came to the side of the grass, picked up the sword and stabbed in, a sword was stabbed in the direction of Ye Zhang, Feng Shenyu hurriedly stood in front of Ye Zhang, fortunately, the tip of the sword was still two centimeters away from Feng Shenyu Time was drawn back, and after four or five stabs in a row, the people outside left.

"No." "Not here." "Come on, they were poisoned and poisoned arrows again, if they can't run far, keep looking ahead."

Feng Shenyu finally heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the voices of several people walking further and further away, but finally couldn't hold on anymore, he closed his eyes and passed out.
