Lu Yun instinctively felt that something was wrong, and he said to the palace maid: "Tell me in detail the state of Concubine Zhuang before she disappeared, such as what strange things you did or what strange people you met."
"This, this..." The little palace maid bit her lips tightly, trying to remember.
"It seems... nothing strange happened, everything is normal." She was so anxious that she almost cried.
The empress disappeared without any reason. If the reason is not found out, as a palace maid, she will definitely be miserable.
"Okay, I'll go to Nanzhu Palace to have a look myself." Lu Yun didn't embarrass her and walked directly to Nanzhu Palace.
When Lu Yun was far away, the little palace maid realized what she was doing. She took small steps and ran while shouting: "Eunuch Lu, wait for me!"
But she couldn't catch up with Lu Yun's footsteps. After a while, he disappeared from sight.
"I've met Eunuch Lu!"
"Join Eunuch Lu!"
Maybe the little palace maid just had a breath with the palace guards at the door. When they saw Lu Yun, they let Lu Yun in without asking.
"Eunuch Lu, please follow me." After entering Nanzhu Palace, a eunuch came forward to guide the way.
"Need not."
Unexpectedly, Lu Yun passed him directly and walked toward the inner court of Nanzhu Palace.
"Strange, how did Eunuch Lu know which direction the inner court was when he came for the first time?" The eunuch thought for a while, but couldn't think of a reason why he came, so he gave up.
When he came to Nanzhu Palace before, Lu Yun was sneaky with the blessing of the witch cloak. Unlike now, he came in openly and openly.
The inner court designs of Concubine Wu, Concubine Yin and Concubine Zhu are quite different. Concubine Zhuang’s inner court is simple and clear.
In the words of Lu Yun in his previous life, it is a simplified design.
This is great, it makes it easier to find clues.
Lu Yun opened the Golden Eyes of Destruction, hoping to find some clues.
Emperor Tian pays off his conscientious people.
Under the desk, he finally found a trace of different energy and blood fluctuations.
He opened the drawer and there was a piece of paper lying inside.
Lu Yun hesitated for a moment, then sucked his hand, and the note went directly into his palm. When he unfolded it, he saw a line of words written on it.
"I'll see you in the imperial garden at midnight tonight."
Looking at the words on the note, Lu Yun's eyelids jumped suddenly.
He had an ominous premonition.
Wasn't this just putting the words "This is a trap" directly in front of him?
Is it Concubine Zhuang?
Is it because I killed her brother?
A cold light flashed deep in Lu Yun's eyes.
The night was dark and there were no stars, only a bright moon hanging high in the sky.
After Lu Yun served Concubine Wu to bed, he walked towards the imperial garden.
As the saying goes, people with high skills are bold, so he also wanted to see what the group behind him was doing.
Soon, he came to the Imperial Garden.
Different from the scenery seen during the day, the Imperial Garden was deserted at night, and there was no one in the huge place except Lu Yun.
The wildly growing flowers, plants and trees, shrouded in darkness, seemed like drowning people desperately stretching their arms to the sky.
"who?"
When Lu Yun arrived at the entrance of the Royal Garden, he saw a figure standing there. It seemed that he saw Lu Yun, and the other person dodged and escaped directly into the garden.
"The figure seems familiar..."
Lu Yun narrowed his eyes slightly and followed in quickly.
But it didn't take long for him to lose his target. The figure was like a drop of water melting into the sea, and soon he escaped into a stone forest.
"Play hide and seek with me?" Lu Yun sneered in his heart.
His eyes were burning like fire, and just as he was about to find out what was going on, he heard a strange sound coming from his ears.
blow!
That was the sound of crossbows.
And it's not just any ordinary crossbow.
Lu Yun's face darkened, and he teleported suddenly. An arrow attached to a talisman shot out from behind, passed through where he was just standing, and shot straight into the stone forest.
Bang!
An explosion sounded, destroying all the nearby rockeries and blasting the soil into the sky.
What a fierce arrow!
What a powerful talisman!
It stands to reason that the palace should have noticed such a violent movement a long time ago, but why is there no movement at all now?
Lu Yun carefully observed his surroundings.
Good guy!
It turns out to be another talisman, and judging from the coverage, it is still a very advanced and secretive talisman.
"Who is here, my colleague from the West Factory?" He recognized the arrow just now, which had the mark of the West Factory on it.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
No one answered him. What greeted him was a shower of arrows, densely packed like a rain curtain. The most important thing was that there were talismans on them.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom...
A series of explosions sounded. If Lu Yun hadn't practiced "Ephemera Crossing the Gap", a top-notch skill in the Wisdom Realm, he would probably be in a very awkward situation right now.
Whoosh!
Lu Yun's figure appeared intact outside the explosion circle. He looked at the incoming figures. They were thirteen warriors covered in armor.
Including the visor, only two stern pupils were exposed.
At this time, they were holding crossbows and still maintaining the firing posture, and behind them was Zhou Bofang, one of the deacons of the West Factory!
"With the intention of attacking and killing the captain of the Xichang School and the patrol officer of the Grand Cadre, what crime do you deserve!" Lu Yun shouted loudly.
Zhou Bofang ignored him. He looked at Lu Yun who was alone, with a ferocious look in his eyes, and shouted loudly: "Kill him!"
The thirteen armored soldiers instantly put away their crossbows, drew out the swords from their waists, and with a movement of their feet, thirteen people, like one person, suddenly rushed towards Lu Yun to surround him.
The fierce and overbearing black sword light instantly swirled in the sky like the Southern Cross to form a huge net, and the terrifying sword light enveloped Lu Yun's whole body.
"Death! Only your death can comfort my son's spirit in heaven!"
Until this moment, Zhou Bofang finally revealed his true purpose!
Um?
How did he know it was me who killed Zhou Zongsuo?
Lu Yun was puzzled.
But at the moment, he had no chance to think about this matter, because he found that the positions of these thirteen warriors covered with armor were extremely strange. As long as Lu Yun moved, one of them would be able to attack Lu Yun in an instant.
"If Lord Bai hadn't told me the truth, I would still have been kept in the dark. This kind of blood feud must be washed away with blood!"
Zhou Bofang gritted his teeth with hatred, and his expression made him want to eat Lu Yun's meat and sleep on Lu Yun's skin.
In fact, Bai Qingwang just bluffed him, but he didn't expect it to be right.
"He is really your son. He doesn't look alike. His surname is not Wang, right?" Lu Yun didn't forget to tease him with words at this time.
"This is unreasonable! Damn it, let us kill you severely!"
boom!
Faced with this kind of siege, Lu Yun naturally would not sit still and wait for death. He waved the King-killing Sword, and when he first appeared, he directly deflected the oncoming attack and slashed at another armored soldier.
