The queen of the last days became a maid and just wanted to lie down

Pei Shuo heard her say this and did not doubt it. "In that case, Zheng Chi has been prepared for us. I'm afraid he has set up a trap ahead of us, waiting for us to fall into it."

Xu Yao asked him to stay calm, so she closed her eyes and listened, then climbed onto the roof, stood on a high place, and listened carefully with her eyes closed.

The street is very busy. I don’t know what kind of event is going on today, but many people are carrying lanterns and walking back and forth happily.

Xu Yao carefully identified it for a long time before he determined the direction.

She jumped down and said to Pei Shuo, "Go to the road on the left and catch up with a man wearing dark green and a black felt hat. That's Wang Muzhi."

"how about you?"

Xu Yao obviously had no intention of going with him. She smiled and said, "Since Zheng Chi has set up such a big game, I will naturally play along with him. If I don't fall for it, how can you do anything to Wang Muzhi?"

Pei Shuo was still worried and said that it would be better for him to be the bait.

Xu Yao couldn't help but raise his hand and flicked his forehead. "What nonsense are you talking about? Can you deal with Zheng Chi? Do as I say. Don't worry about things you shouldn't worry about all day long."

After saying that, she left Pei Shuo and walked away. Pei Shuo looked at her back deeply, turned around, and chased after the man in the direction Xu Yao said.

Seeing that they were almost at the Treasure Pavilion, Xu Yao put on a mask and flew over, directly opening the roof of the carriage.

The person in the carriage was indeed not Wang Muzhi.

That was a killer from Yuan Qingzong, who fired a hidden weapon at the masked man.

Unfortunately, he didn't get any chance to hurt Xu Yao as he was stabbed to death by Xu Yao.

Xu Yao was annoyed and shouted to everyone around him, "They've fallen into a trap. Brothers, run away!" He turned around and was about to run.

At this time, pedestrians on the street all fled in panic. Countless armored guards poured out from the alleys, and this busy street was surrounded from front to back.

Xu Yao was in the carriage, watching Zheng Chi riding towards her on horseback, looking down at her.

Zheng Chi waved to his men, and they immediately rushed up and besieged Xu Yao.

Xu Yao was not panicked. Although these armored guards were highly skilled in martial arts, it was not easy for them to deal with Xu Yao.

The sword in Xu Yao's hand was like a spirit snake. It moved flexibly under the siege of countless armored guards. Amid the flashes of swords and sabers, the armored guards fell one after another.

When Zheng Chi saw this scene, he was not angry, but very excited.

This sword technique and this posture are exactly like Zhang Yao, even more powerful than Zhang Yao.

He stared at Xu Yao with a burning gaze, and became even more curious. Could it be that Zhang Yao's martial arts were really inherited by Zhao Xi?

Otherwise, how could Zhao Xi's talent suddenly become so powerful.

He clearly remembered that when he was beating up Zhao Xi that day, Zhao Xi's swordsmanship was not yet so sophisticated. It was just that fleeting glimpse of him when he was escaping that made Zheng Chi curious to this day.

Now he had a vague feeling that at this moment, Zhao Xi and Zhang Yao merged into the same person.

Seeing the armored guards being killed, Zhao Xi tore a hole in the throat, and then Zheng Chi's face changed.

This time, he wanted to capture the person alive. He had to bring this girl back to see what secrets she had.

That indescribable feeling of excitement has never appeared again since Zhang Yao's death.

Now this woman made him excited again.

Xu Yao felt a cold light coming from behind her. She dodged and avoided Zheng Chi's sword, but was still accidentally scratched on the arm.

Xu Yao used several sword moves that Zheng Chi was familiar with, and repelled Zheng Chi.

Zheng Chi couldn't believe it. The force of those moves just now made his hands feel numb and sore.

But the more he did this, the more excited he became, and the more difficult it was for him to control himself.

A dark desire unknown to others surged in his heart. He wanted to capture Zhao Xi immediately, lock him in the basement, and interrogate him.

"Catch her!"

As soon as Zheng Chi finished speaking, Xu Yao saw a large net falling from a high place.

Are they trying to trap Xu Yao?

Zhao Xi saw the net and shouted anxiously, "It's a wire mesh wrapped around armor. Run quickly. No weapon can cut it open if you're trapped."

When Xu Yao heard this, he thought it was a rope used to tie up immortals. He would be in great danger if he was caught, so he escaped at lightning speed.

She was like a gust of wind, blowing past Zheng Chi's ears, making his heart surge.

He grinned, a very wicked smile, and chased after him with his sword in hand.

Zheng Chi had only one thought in his mind at this moment, and that was to catch Zhao Xi.

This thought kept echoing in his mind, and he led his men in pursuit all the way until they reached the Jia family.

Xu Yao climbed over the wall into the Jia family's house in front of him, and the Armored Guards were about to climb over the wall to enter. Zheng Chi still had a bit of rationality left, so he calmed down and ordered the Armored Guards to surround the Jia family's house from front to back, not allowing anyone to enter or leave.

Jia Sheng had just returned from drinking wine and was being helped by his servants as he got off the carriage.

With the smell of women's fat still on his body, he was still savoring the beauty of the courtesan. Suddenly, he heard someone say they wanted to surround his house. He burped and turned around: "Where did you come from, you ignorant brat? You don't even know where this place is. You just say to surround it."

The servant beside him whispered in his ear: "Master, it's the Armored Guards."

Hearing the words "Iron Armored Guards", Jia Sheng suddenly came to his senses and tried hard to stand firm and calm his mind.

After careful identification, I found that these people were wearing black armor. Aren’t they the Queen Mother’s Armored Guards?

Jia Sheng swallowed his saliva, feeling guilty. But he still said to Zheng Chi: "What is General Zheng doing? Why is he besieging my Jia family for no reason? My father is the emperor's teacher. If General Zheng wants to raid my house, he should have an imperial decree."

Zheng Chi had an indifferent expression and looked down upon this good-for-nothing who depended on his father.

"Master Jia, you are worrying too much. I am not here to confiscate your property. I was just chasing the assassin. The assassin climbed over the wall and entered the Jia Mansion. I also wanted the safety of the Master, so I surrounded the mansion to prevent the assassin from escaping."

Jia Sheng didn't believe this nonsense. "Bullshit, although my mansion is not as strong as the iron guards, it is not a place where anyone can come and go as they please. What kind of assassin is so blind and dares to break into my Jia family? I think you have bad intentions and want to use this as an excuse to do something illegal to my Jia family."

Zheng Chi had a blank expression on his face and cold eyes as he glanced at his men.

The man came up immediately, pushed away the servant beside Jia Sheng, and captured Jia Sheng directly.

"What are you doing, Zheng Chi? I am an official appointed by the imperial court, not some random person. Do you still want to kill me?"

"Take Lord Jia to have a look."

"What are you looking at? What do you want to do?"

Jia Sheng was seven points drunk, but now he was only two points drunk. The armored guards were very strong and they dragged him to prevent him from running away. They brought him to the wall of the side door of the Jia Mansion.

The subordinate came over with a lantern and shone it on the white wall, only to see bloody footprints on the wall. At this moment, the only bit of drunkenness that Jia Sheng had left was gone.

Could it be that there really was a thief in the house?
