Leng Shoushan came out to greet him personally and took him to his small courtyard.
Prince Kang's Mansion and Prince Bao's Mansion occupy almost the same area, but the layout is completely different.
Every courtyard is a garden, far from the vastness of Prince Bao's Mansion. Every garden is unique and elegant to the extreme.
Leng Shoushan's small courtyard is also a garden. They sat in a small pavilion on the small lake, and a faint fragrance lingered in the pavilion.
Chu Li glanced at the big round mirror and saw that the fragrance came from the wood used to build the pavilion. It was a kind of exotic sandalwood. The fragrance it gave off could refresh the mind and repel mosquitoes and flies. It was the most expensive thing.
To ordinary people, the purple pillars of the pavilion are inconspicuous and do not show how luxurious it is.
The lake water is clear, and you can see a spring below. The spring water is constantly gushing, and it is faintly about to burst out of the water.
The wooden round table in the pavilion has a dark purple light, revealing nobility and vicissitudes of life.
"Brother Chu, we are in trouble this time." Leng Shoushan personally filled the jade pot and filled the silver cup for him, sighing: "I was assassinated, probably because of Gu Qi's order."
Chu Li helped a lot in his personal capacity and valued friendship and righteousness. Leng Shoushan felt that it was most appropriate to treat him as a brother.
Chu Li said: "Fortunately, your son is fine."
"Thankfully, Ninth Brother forced his four guards on me, otherwise, I really couldn't tell this time!" Leng Shoushan showed a lingering fear.
Chu Li said: "This time I was ordered to investigate the prince's assassination and try my best to find out the murderer."
"Brother Chu, do you want to investigate my case?" Leng Shoushan asked hurriedly.
Chu Li nodded.
Leng Shoushan slapped the table: "Okay!"
He greatly admired Chu Li's miraculous methods and felt that the murderer would not be able to escape if Chu Li took action.
Chu Li said: "Even in the mansion, you have to be careful about assassination."
Leng Shoushan frowned and nodded slowly.
Chu Li said: "Think about the assassination in Prince An's Mansion. These guys are so crazy that they don't even care about their lives. What worries do they have?"
"Well, you have to be careful!" Leng Shoushan nodded.
The strength of Prince An's Mansion is not bad, and there is a master like Chu Li sitting in charge, but he is still assassinated time and time again by martial arts masters, which shows that the world has no respect for the Prince's Mansion!
"How are the injuries of the crown prince's guards?" Chu Li said.
Leng Shoushan shook his head: "These injuries are very difficult to deal with, and none of them have been cured."
"I want to meet them." Chu Li said.
Leng Shoushan raised his voice and called an old man over and ordered him to go down.
Soon four middle-aged well-dressed guards came to the small pavilion. They walked as slowly as old men. Three of them had pale faces, one had a purple face, and had difficulty breathing.
Leng Shoushan introduced Chu Li's identity to them, and the four of them looked at Chu Li curiously.
Chu Li is a legendary figure in the capital of the gods. They have also heard of his name and found that Chu Li is younger than expected, but they cannot despise him. Although he is young, he is calm and solid, and has a calm and authoritative temperament.
Chu Li checked their injuries one by one and took the opportunity to help them expel the internal energy in their bodies.
Their injuries have never been good because the internal energy lingers and cannot be dispelled. Even if they take the palace's elixir, their injuries not only do not reduce, but become worse. If this continues, there is only a way to death.
"Is it possible to find the murderer?" Leng Shoushan said.
Chu Li frowned and said nothing.
"Can they go down now?" Leng Shoushan said.
Chu Li nodded.
The four of them hugged Chu Li and saluted, thanking him for his help.
Chu Li watched them disappear and looked at Leng Shoushan.
Leng Shoushan said hurriedly: "What's the matter, Brother Chu?"
"The second person I reached out to was the internal agent." Chu Li said.
Leng Shoushan's face darkened: "That's Boss Xu, the old man in the family!"
Chu Li said no more.
Leng Shoushan took a deep breath and said bitterly: "He must have lost his mind and betrayed the palace!"
Chu Li said: "Your Majesty, don't rush to take action. You can observe slowly to see if there is any reluctance."
"Alas..." Leng Shoushan smiled bitterly: "I was afraid that like Fifth Brother, I would carefully select the most reliable guards, but I didn't expect..."
"After the prince was assassinated, he never thought about cleaning up. Is there someone inside?" Chu Li said.
Leng Shoushan shook his head: "I just calmed down and haven't thought about that yet."
Chu Lidao: "This time the assassin is a disciple of the Holy Sect of Light."
"Guangming Holy Cult? It's them again!?" Leng Shoushan frowned and said, "What are they going to do?"
The Guangming Holy Religion made a fuss a while ago, and it just subsided, but I didn't expect it to happen again!
Chu Li sighed: "I also want to know what they are going to do. I will track down the murderer first and then visit the Crown Prince next time."
Leng Shoushan said hurriedly: "Guys from the Guangming Holy Cult are difficult to deal with, be careful!"
Chu Li hugged his fists and smiled: "Your Highness, be careful too!"
He floated onto the treetops and floated away on the treetops, without even seeing his shadow in the blink of an eye.
——
Qin Jin and the others were discussing in the living room what household items they should buy, whether they should change all the furniture, buy some exotic flowers and plants in the yard, or open a pond to raise fish and build two small pavilions.
Chu Li suddenly appeared, and they hurriedly saluted.
Chu Li said: "Qin Jin, you four, follow me to chase the murderer."
"Centurion, let us brothers go!" Ning Boyuan said hurriedly: "Leave the tracking to us!"
Chu Li shook his head and said: "This time there is no need to track, we have to fight to the death. The disciples of the Holy Sect of Light cannot go unless they are in the sky!"
The Ning brothers were immediately discouraged.
Qin Jin smiled and said: "We can finally move around, our bodies are all rusty!"
Chu Li said: "Leave now, do you have anything to prepare?"
Qin and Jin shook their heads.
"Let's go." Chu Li said.
He led the four of them out of the back door, hiding himself and heading west.
Chu Li sighed secretly as he flew by. He didn't expect this group of assassins to be so bold. Whether they were confident that no one would see the flaw, or because they thought no one could catch them, they didn't run away after the assassination, but were still hiding in the city of God!
"You don't need to tell me how to deal with the disciples of the Holy Sect of Light, right?" Chu Li said: "Fight quickly and we must not let them use secret techniques. We would rather risk being injured than kill them within a few moves!"
Qin and Jin nodded.
It was already noon, the sun was shining in the sky, and they came to a residential area.
This is a place where common people live. Each house is small and somewhat old. There are no wealthy families living here.
Chu Li stopped in front of a house and pointed diagonally across. The four of them indicated that they understood that the murderer was in the house next door.
Chu Li Dayuan Jingzhi has already seen inside.
There were three middle-aged men sitting under the big locust tree in the small courtyard, wearing green shirts, lazily drinking tea and chatting casually.
The broken shadows left by the locust leaves fell all over them, and they looked relaxed.
Chu Li and the four of them happened to stop within the perception range of the three of them.
"Something's wrong." A short, fat middle-aged man frowned and said, "It feels ominous. We shouldn't stay here for a long time. We have to leave immediately!"
"Brother Jiang, is there really a problem?" The middle-aged man with a long and narrow face sat up straight: "Is someone coming?"
"Anyway, there will be danger on a whim, so we must leave immediately!" The short, fat middle-aged man stood up and looked around.
The last stalwart middle-aged man said carelessly: "Scare yourself, who can find us, but since you don't feel good, let's go!"
The three of them put down their tea cups, stood up and left.
Just when they were about to move, Chu Li suddenly appeared behind the short, fat middle-aged man, with a cold light flashing around his waist.
The short, fat, middle-aged man reacted sharply, and as Chu Li expected, he jumped forward with his body close to the ground.
Wanxiang Guizong had already predicted his response to this move, and the tip of the sword was waiting. It pierced the short, fat middle-aged man's vest and appeared on his chest.
