Huo Yunjue opened the door and Zhang Mengde rushed in. Huo Yunjue quickly reached out to stop him.

Zhang Mengde's cheeks turned red. He squinted slightly and saw the wrinkles in Huo Yunchue's clothes. He caught a glimpse of Ning Ziqing's messy appearance on the bed and felt very angry.

"Your Highness, the Fourth Highness, I am willing to offer you thousands of gold in exchange for this dancer. I hope that Your Highness will be able to help you. Anyway, you have had enough fun and you can't bring her back to Kyoto!" Zhang Mengde grabbed Huo Yunjue's arm and asked. road.

Huo Yunjue's face darkened, he stared at Zhang Mengde sharply, and pushed him out.

"Master Zhang, you have such a loud tone!" Huo Yunjue scolded sharply.

"You are just a Gucheng iron ore envoy, but you can actually spend such a huge amount of money in exchange for a dancing girl! You paid it truthfully, where did you get the money?" Huo Yunjue asked Zhang Mengde with a cold expression.

Zhang Mengde sneered disdainfully and replied proudly: "Why does the Fourth Highness know so much? As long as you are willing to hand over the dancer, I can afford ten thousand gold, not to mention a thousand gold!"

"Presumptuous!" Huo Yunjue was angered by his words. He stepped forward and grabbed the lapel of his clothes. His eyes instantly turned cold, with a murderous intent.

"Zhang Mengde, you secretly colluded with Qian Yeguo to commit the theft of fine iron in Gucheng. You instructed Zhang Minghe, the prefect of Gucheng, to issue a caravan passage order to He Youjing, Taishi of Cangzhou."

"Let people from the Qianye Kingdom pretend to be members of the caravan and enter Gucheng to steal the fine iron and weapons for personal gain and confuse the public." Huo Yunjue's voice was full of anger and unquestionable.

Zhang Mengde's expression changed. He looked at Huo Yunjue in surprise, having mostly woken up from alcohol.His lips trembled slightly, but he didn't speak.

After a while, Zhang Mengde came back to his senses, looked away, and replied calmly.

"I don't know what the Fourth Highness is talking about!"

Huo Yunjue sneered, his eyes became sharp, and he said indifferently: "Master Zhang, don't deny it in a hurry!"

"His Highness has sent people to the heavily guarded place in your house to obtain conclusive evidence of your collusion with Qianye Kingdom! Now, you'd better confess honestly, otherwise when His Highness captures you and takes you to His Majesty, the consequences will be more serious."

Zhang Mengde's heart was in his throat when he heard this.His face was pale and his eyes were evasive, but he still insisted on denying: "I know nothing about this! This is a false accusation!"

Huo Yunjue saw that he refused to admit it and was not in a hurry.He put his hands behind his back and laughed softly: "Zhang Mengde, no matter how much you deny it today, it will be in vain."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Liaohe and Wei Feng rushed into the garden and went straight to Huo Yunjue to return to his life.

"Go back to Your Highness, the Fourth Highness. I have obtained the evidence, and I would like to ask Your Highness to take a look at it!" Gu Liaohe respectfully handed over a letter.

Huo Yunjue took the letter, his eyes flashed, and he started to read it.

Jiang Quhan suddenly walked over quickly, grabbed Zhang Mengde's right arm and said disgustedly: "You just touched Ning Manman with this hand!"

His tone was calm, but there was a sinister murderous intent.

Jiang Quhan moved his hand with a little force, and along with Zhang Mengde's painful cry, his right arm was abruptly broken.

"Jiang Quhan, stop it quickly, let's spare his life for now, I will interrogate him again!" Huo Yunjue was afraid that Jiang Quhan would kill Zhang Mengde, so he hurriedly stopped him.

Jiang Quhan snorted, took back his hand in disgust, brushed his sleeves, and inadvertently used a burst of internal force to knock Zhang Mengde to the ground.

Su Yanqi looked slightly stunned, a little surprised by Jiang Quhan's profound internal strength.

He couldn't help but wonder that as a military doctor, Jiang Quhan had such superb martial arts and internal strength.

Su Yanqi raised his eyes and looked at Huo Yunjue. Huo Yunjue noticed his doubts and shook his head slightly to indicate that he didn't need to worry.

Su Yanqi nodded in understanding.

"Huo Yunjue, the evidence has been obtained and the people are detained, withdraw!" Jiang Quhan proudly unfolded his folding fan and reminded.

Huo Yunjue nodded and signaled Wei Feng to escort Zhang Mengde.

He carefully put away the letters he had not had time to read, and chatted with Gu Liaohe for a few more words.

Su Yanqi entered the room, helped Ning Ziqing arrange her hair, put on the long-sleeved shirt she had taken off before, and then pulled her and Huo Yunjue away.

They walked out of the East Garden of Zhang Mansion and when they walked around to the front yard, they were blocked by a group of guards.

"You dare to stop His Highness, you are so brave, why don't you get out of the way quickly!" Huo Yunjue shouted sternly.

The guards held weapons and did not give in. Instead, they surrounded them.

Huo Yunjue sneered contemptuously, took his sword from Wei Feng's hand, pulled it out and took a step forward to stare at the guards in front of him. The blade of the long sword in his hand trembled slightly, and he took an attack posture.

Su Yanqi and Jiang Quhan stood beside Ning Ziqing, watching the surrounding movements vigilantly.

Just as the two sides were in a tense confrontation, a young man came out of the guards and said:

"Your Royal Highness, you can leave, but Zhang Mengde and the letter must stay!"

Su Yanqi looked at the man when he heard the sound, looking slightly stunned: "Lu Heng, why are you here?"

The young man chuckled twice and replied calmly: "Shichiro-kun, long time no see. I didn't expect you to be still alive!"

Su Yanqi stared at him with a cold face, and raised a trace of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth: "Lu Heng, your master wants me to die, it's not that easy! It seems that this matter of fortifying the city has nothing to do with your master!"

"Qi Langjun, I advise you to mind your own business. You can take the third lady away now. As long as you don't join in, I can let you go!" Lu Heng advised.

Su Yanqi shook his head and sneered: "Lu Heng, have you been a dog for a long time? Your behavior is on par with your master."

Su Yanqi looked at Lu Heng coldly, with a trace of disdain flashing in his eyes.

Huo Yunjue and others all showed mocking smiles.

Lu Heng was furious, and with a stern look on his face, he waved his hand and ordered the guards to take the person.

Huo Yunjue and Gu Liaohe rushed to the front and fought fiercely with the guards. Wei Feng grabbed Zhang Mengde and followed Su Yanqi and the others to retreat out of the gate.

After a while, they met Qiang Ze and Qingxu who came to meet them, and the group arrived at the gate smoothly.

Jiang Quhan quickly killed several guards and pushed open the door, but was shocked by the scene in front of him.

Under the stone steps of the gate, Yan Si led the Golden Wing Army and a group of secret guards were in a tense confrontation.

"It's too big!" Jiang Quhan sighed.

Ning Ziqing glanced at him displeasedly and urged: "Let's go!"

Jiang Quhan came to his senses and gave Ning Ziqing a hand.

Several people walked out of the door, but Ning Ziqing stopped and looked back at Huo Yunjue.

Huo Yunjue killed a guard and quickly ran to the gate with Gu Liaohe.

Ning Ziqing felt relieved and stretched out her hand to pull Huo Yunjue.

Huo Yunjue stepped forward to hold her hand and breathed a sigh of relief.

The two of them were walking at the end, and when they stepped down a step, Ning Ziqing was suddenly grabbed by the arm and dragged back.

Huo Yunjue suddenly turned around and his eyes widened in surprise when he saw the person behind him.

"Ning Ziqing, don't even think about escaping from me!"
