Li Er saw Ximen Qing's panic and asked displeasedly: "Ximen Qing, I asked you to announce Lu Huayuan's entry into the palace, why is there no sign of him?"
Ximen Qing hurriedly bowed and said: "Your Majesty, I just led people to the restaurant where Lu Huayuan lived. Only then did I find that the building was empty and Lu didn't even leave a horse behind. The shopkeeper of the restaurant said that Lu Huayuan
They left quietly at midnight last night. I have sent people to investigate, and Lu Huayuan and others have left Chang'an at this moment and are missing."
What?
Li Er's eyes widened.
Changsun Wuji and others were suddenly stunned.
This is not a good time!
Everyone feels this way.
Swish.
In an instant, everyone's eyes turned to Du He.
Li Er asked: "Du He, what did you say about the Lu family's rebellion?"
Du He then said slowly: "For the record, father, last night, Lu Huayuan led people into the camp of the Dream Group's mighty and brave invincible army, killed many people, and was also preparing to assassinate His Highness the King of Shu. Fortunately, I arrived in time.
Arrive, armed with a pair of drums, urns and golden hammers, kill seven in and seven out, and kill all the Lu family's thieves..."
Before Du He could finish speaking, Li Er suddenly stood up and asked in surprise: "Is Ke'er okay?"
The pretense was not finished, Du He was a little unhappy: "Father, His Royal Highness the King of Shu was seriously injured, but fortunately his life is not in danger."
Li Er was relieved now.
Changsun Wuji was very sensitive and asked hurriedly: "Du He, who knows whether what you said is true? There is no news yet. You said that the Lu family rebelled and Lu Huayuan assassinated the King of Shu. Who can believe your words?
"
Du He smiled and said: "Master Changsun, you and the Lu family are in the same group, so of course you have to speak to the Lu family."
"you……"
Bang bang bang.
Du He suddenly clapped his hands.
Four Forbidden Soldiers suddenly appeared at the door, carrying a simple stretcher and walking in. Lying on the stretcher was Li Ke, the fat little black man.
Li Ke came in and said grumblingly: "Father, I have difficulty moving, so I can't pay you respects."
Li Er stepped forward in shock and asked worriedly: "Ke'er, are you okay?"
Changsun Wuji and others also stepped forward to observe carefully.
Li Ke had injuries on his forehead, his left arm, and his right leg. There were injuries in many places on the mountain and neck.
The wounds are all real.
It's so tragic.
This time, no one spoke.
Li Er asked: "Ke'er, are you sure that the person who assassinated you last night was sent by Lu Huayuan?"
Li Ke said excitedly: "Father, it's absolutely true. The Guancheng Brigade captured five assassins. They confessed that Lu Huayuan sent them. Moreover, many people from the Dream Group's majestic and brave invincible army were present at that time. Son
I had already revealed my identity at that time, but when the thieves heard this, instead of being afraid, they took action directly. If the teacher hadn't arrived, I would have been dead long ago."
Swish.
Li Er stood up immediately with a gloomy expression, "Mr. Lu, what a Lu family, huh, even my son dares to touch me, are you trying to give me a disgrace? Very good, someone is here, immediately tell Dali Temple and
The Criminal Department, investigate this matter thoroughly, and mobilize people to secretly hunt down Lu Huayuan. We must capture Lu Huayuan and never allow him to return to Fan Yang."
"yes!"
Du He suddenly asked: "Father, where is the Changsun family?"
"What?"
"Just now," Du He said, "everyone heard clearly that Mr. Changsun personally said that he has a close relationship with the Lu family. Now that the Lu family is rebelling, he must be involved."
Changsun Wuji: "..."
Little beast, you are so vicious.
He almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
Li Er glanced at Changsun Wuji and said, "Auxiliary machine, I'm afraid you've been tired recently, so go back home and have a good rest."
Changsun Wuji lowered his head and said, "Yes!"
Lu's rebellion is a big deal.
As all the big shots in the imperial court happened to be there, Li Er immediately made arrangements, mobilized troops and horses, and made early preparations.
Afterwards, everyone left the Tai Chi Hall and returned to their posts to get busy.
On the bluestone avenue of the palace.
Several guards carried Li Ke and followed Du He out.
Li Ke asked excitedly: "Teacher, how do you think I performed?"
Du He nodded with satisfaction: "His Highness's performance is truly impressive. He deserves to be the Best Actor at this year's Golden Bull Awards."
Li Ke was very proud. He laughed and pulled at the wound. He grinned in pain, "Of course, even my father didn't realize that the injury on my body was caused by a wild beast, not an assassination."
Yes, Li Ke was indeed injured, but it was not Lu Huayuan's people who were injured.
But a few days ago, he heard Du He telling a story about Wu Song fighting a tiger. On a whim, he went deep into Zhongnan Mountain, drank wine, and fought the tiger with his bare hands.
Little did he know that the martial arts hero in the story drank low-alcohol wine, but he drank high-alcohol wine produced by Dream Group, so he jumped on him in a daze and was beaten to death by the tiger.
Du He looked at the pitiful Li Ke, shook his head and said: "Your Majesty is so wise, how could he not see your injury? He was just blinded by anger, and it won't be long before the secret is revealed."
"Then... what should we do?" Li Ke asked in surprise.
Du He said with a smile: "The end of the Lu family has come!"
"What?"
Li Ke looked confused.
Isn’t this king’s end coming?
…
A place deep in the mountains.
Lu Huayuan and others have already had breakfast.
At this time, a spy came back and said: "Second Master, something bad is going on. There are people in the states and counties along the way quietly inquiring about our whereabouts. It seems that the news about our assassination of the King of Shu has been known to Chang'an."
Lu Huayuan slapped his thigh: "Who would have thought that things would turn out like this? Oh, how can I explain to my eldest brother?"
The subordinate said: "Second Master, we have no way out. If we don't return to Fan Yang quickly, I'm afraid we will be captured."
Lu Huayuan gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go, everyone, speed up and get back to Fan Yang as soon as possible, otherwise, we will all die."
"yes!"
The large group of people set off immediately.
…
Yunyang County.
County government.
The Yunyang County magistrate frowned and said to the county magistrate: "Tell me, what on earth did the Lu family commit to make His Majesty use a secret edict to hunt down Lu Huayuan and others? You say, our Yunyang County is not going to Chang'an City to Youzhou
The only way we must pass, will Lu Huayuan pass by here?"
The county magistrate smiled and said: "My lord, you are overly worried. From the map, if Lu Huayuan and others pass through Yunyang County, it will take at least three more days to travel. They would only pass through here unless they are crazy."
Before he finished speaking, a government servant hurried in and said breathlessly: "Sir, someone reported that traces of Lu Huayuan and others were found in the south."
Snap.
The cup in Yunyang County Magistrate's hand fell to the ground.
"This... what should I do? On one side is His Majesty's secret order, on the other is the Lu family, and I am really in a dilemma!"
