The mistress was reborn and broke off the engagement, the regent cried and begged to marry into the

Shangguanfu.

Shangguan Haitong stood in the corridor and looked at the moon: "Now that the two young masters have returned, there will be something interesting to watch at the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion."

If the master is happy, Huanshuang will be happy.

A little maid came over hurriedly: "Miss, Miss Zhu is here."

Shangguan Haitong turned around and said, "Why is she here at this hour? Did something happen?"

She had a bad feeling when she thought about what she had asked Zhu Changji to do.

Zhu Zhijun walked into the room quickly and bowed eagerly.

Shangguan Haitong went forward and said, "No need to be polite. What happened?"

"My brother was discovered when he was taking people to the camp." Zhu Zhijun was extremely anxious. This was a capital crime.

Huanshuang was shocked.

Shangguan Haitong raised her hand to signal not to panic: "Tell me slowly, what's going on?"

Zhu Zhijun calmed down: "When my brother was on patrol, he followed the girl's instructions and brought people back to the camp in batches. One time, he felt that someone was watching him. At that time, he didn't find anyone and thought it was just wishful thinking. After returning to the camp, my brother was worried and went back to investigate again."

"Unexpectedly, we bumped into a man in black. My brother realized then that it was not an illusion and immediately fought with the man. The man was very skilled in martial arts and injured my brother, and he was also injured. From my brother's description, the man might be a gangster."

People of the Jianghu...what did Huanshuang think of.

Could it be them?

Shangguan Haitong raised a smile at the corner of his lips: "That is to say, they just saw it, and there is no substantial evidence."

Zhu Zhijun thought about it and said, "You can say that. I'm worried that they are from other forces and might bring people to arrest them on the spot."

"Just let them take care of themselves." Shangguan Haitong was worried that he would not have the chance to get rid of that damned man. "There was a thief in the capital today. Your brother must have met a bandit. Of course, they could be more than just a bandit. Do you understand?"

Zhu Zhijun swallowed her saliva and asked in disbelief: "The girl wants to..."

Shangguan Haitong sneered, "They got involved on their own, so how can I not go along with it? Tell your brother to report this to the emperor immediately. Say that the rebels have been spotted and will be injured when they are arrested. The most urgent task is to impose martial law and search the entire city."

Huanshuang understood: "They are staying in the inn. They have no cover when they enter the city, so it is easy to find them."

Zhu Zhijun nodded and agreed: "I will send a message to my brother immediately and ask him to make preparations."

"The city gates are closed, they can't escape even if they have wings." Shangguan Haitong's eyes were filled with murderous intent.

Once you enter this trap, there is no way out. A quick fight and a quick decision will be effective.

Zhu Zhijun did it immediately without delay.

Huan Shuang looked at her master and said, "Miss, what if that person tells the truth?"

Shangguan Haitong was confident: "He has no chance to tell the truth. If Zhu Changji is not stupid, he will definitely seize this opportunity to kill him. Now that he is dead, we have the final say on whether he is right or wrong. They can only blame themselves for showing up at the wrong time."

Outside the moat.

Something was floating down the river and a figure grabbed it and quickly took it away.

Inside the tent.

Zhu Changji was changing the bandage with his bare arms when his confidant hurried in. He opened the bamboo tube and took out the letter inside.

The secret code unique to the brother and sister explains everything.

After burning the letter, Zhu Changji untied the bandage and scratched the wound. He did not stop until it bled: "Prepare the horses, I want to go to the palace to see the emperor."

In the dead of night, there was a knock on the city gate.

Zhu Changji arrived on horseback and said, "I am Zhu Changji, the commander of the Beijing Suburban Camp. I have an urgent report for the Emperor. Please let me go."

There was blood on his chest, as if he had just been in a battle.

Upon seeing this, the soldiers immediately opened the door, and Zhu Changji rode away and went straight into the palace.

The urgent report was brought into the palace, and the lights were brightly lit.

The emperor's eyes were sinister: "Search the whole city, the criminal must be brought to justice!"

Zhu Changji took the order and led his team out of the palace together with the commander of the imperial guard, Lu Xiao.

With injuries on his body, Zhu Changji was afraid that he was no match for the thieves. He specifically asked Lu Xiao to search the inn while he led his men to patrol the streets.

This night was destined to be restless.

The Third Prince's Mansion.

Xie Chengming looked down at the person kneeling below him coldly: "Useless thing, you can even be discovered. In view of the intelligence you brought back, you will be exempted from punishment this time. Go back and recuperate, and try not to show up in front of others in the future."

"Yes." The man with a scar on his face stood up and walked away.

The servant passed by him, entered the house, knelt down and reported: "The commander of the suburban camp came to the palace to see the emperor, saying that he had encountered a traitor. The emperor was furious and ordered a city-wide search. Judging from the direction, the commander is coming towards our mansion."

Xie Chengming raised his lips and said, "What a quick reaction. He is the thief crying thief. I will go meet him."

The Fourth Prince's Mansion.

Xie Qiheng received the news and thought that the plan had been advanced. He smiled with satisfaction: "Go ahead and make a fuss. The bigger the fuss, the better."

Shangguanfu.

Huanshuang walked into the bedroom: "Miss, it's getting late. Do you want to take a nap?"

Shangguan Haitong held his forehead with his hand and sat on the couch: "How can I sleep until the thief is dead?"

"Things are going well and there will be good results." Huanshuang lit the oil lamp.

Will there be a good result? Shangguan Haitong frowned. Why was she so worried?

Inn.

Lu Xiao and his men knocked on the door: "Search by order, open the door immediately."

The waiter was awakened and quickly opened the door.

The shopkeeper came out while tying his belt: "Sir, what happened?"

Lu Xiao raised his hand expressionlessly, and the soldiers decisively rushed upstairs to search.

The waiter and the shopkeeper were shocked.

Lu Xiao paced with his hands behind his back: "Have you ever seen any Jianghu people? They are criminals who are plotting treason."

"What?" The shopkeeper's legs went limp with fear.

The waiter quickly supported the man.

The shopkeeper hurriedly explained: "There are indeed a few gangsters upstairs, but I really didn't know they were treasonous criminals."

Before he finished speaking, there was a sound of fighting from upstairs. Lu Xiao's eyes became sharp, and he led the rest of the people upstairs quickly.

The shopkeeper and the waiter looked up and the next moment a soldier was knocked down.

They were so frightened that they ran to the backyard and hid as quickly as possible.

The second floor.

Lu Xiao held a knife and confronted Shi Wangxi and the others: "You bold thieves, why don't you surrender!"

Shi Wangxi and his companions were stealing around looking for things, thinking that they would be discovered and arrested by the government.

They fled separately, running out first and then meeting up again.

The soldiers drew their knives, rushed into the house and started fighting.

Shi Wangxi and others took out their weapons, including soft swords, whips, and double knives.

Weapons collided with each other, and the shouts of killing were thrilling.

Even though Shi Wangxi and others were very skilled in martial arts, two fists could not defeat four hands.

They can't take care of the front or the back, and if they are not careful, they will be cut.

"Rush out!" Shi Wangxi shouted as his hand was slashed again.

The three of them rushed out together, but there were too many soldiers and they were forced back just as they got out a little.

Looking around, Shi Wangxi had to jump out of the window.

Lu Xiao pursued decisively. With such a great achievement in front of him, how could he let him get away?

Soldiers rushed down the stairs and chased after them through the street.

The bustling inn suddenly became very quiet.

The shopkeeper and the waiter stuck their heads out of the house, and the broken window upstairs fell to the ground with a loud noise.

They quickly hid back and didn't dare to come out all night.
