What Zuo Yanfei was most worried about still happened.
She and Tang Ruowei returned to the palace, said goodbye to Bai Qiu, and then immediately went to Emperor Qu Peng, but only after asking the question did they find out that the guards who guarded the prince that day had already been angry after the question because of their unfavorable performance. Emperor Qu Peng cut everything down.
Because of this, Emperor Qu Peng also apologized very embarrassingly to Zuo Yanfei and Tang Ruowei.
"But if the two girls investigate this matter, I also have a guess. I don't know if it is reliable or not."
Qu Pengdi said so after his apology.
"According to what I know about my son, maybe the place where he died is not the restaurant, but somewhere else."
"Oh?"
Zuo Yanfei asked:
"Why did your Majesty say this?"
"Knowing son Mo Ruofu, the crown prince established by me, of course I know him best."
Emperor Qu Peng hesitated for a moment and said:
"My son is polite and filial, filial and steadfast, everything is good, but a little lecherous. Of course, I don't think lewdness is a disadvantage for those who want to be emperors. But with the habits of my son, he is in After watching the performance, if nothing happens, I will definitely send someone to invite the members of the group that he likes to go to the place he prepared for a spring night."
Hearing this, Zuo Yanfei blushed slightly, but Tang Ruowei, who was born in the royal family, did not change her face. After thinking about it, she asked:
"Does Your Majesty know where His Royal Highness usually likes to pamper women?"
"Of course I know, that was the painting boat I bought for him on his tenth birthday."
Qu Pengdi replied:
"It should still stay in the canal now. If you want to go, I can send someone to take you there."
"Then thank you, Your Majesty."
—————————
Led by an official, Zuo Yanfei and Tang Ruowei came to the edge of the canal and saw the painting boat owned by Prince Dingguo.
Even on the spacious canal in the capital of Dingguo, this painting boat is definitely the most eye-catching one. It is about 30 to 40 meters long. There are three-story buildings on board. It is then decorated with gold lacquer, and the pillars and cornices on the boat are decorated with cloud pictures or dragons and phoenixes, showing the noble identity of the owner of the boat.
On the hull, you can even see the shooting holes for soldiers to shoot arrows. In a critical moment, this painting boat can even be turned into a warship.
"Pity."
Seeing this ship, Tang Ruowei sighed:
"Such a good ship was used by the prince as a mobile gun room."
"Cough cough."
Zuo Yanfei blushed and said:
"Ruo Wei, let's go up and have a look first, this gentleman, please send me off, you can go back first."
The bureaucrat in Dingguo bowed to the two and left, while Zuo Yanfei and Tang Ruowei boarded the painting boat.
The first floor of the painting boat was decorated as a hall, and the second floor looked like a place to eat. Zuo Yanfei and Tang Ruowei came all the way to the third floor. This is where Prince Dingguo spent the night on the painting boat, which is Qu Peng. The location of the crime that the emperor guessed.
"There really is a problem here."
As soon as she entered the door, Zuo Yanfei realized that something was wrong. She pointed to the window on the left side of the room and said:
"This window is so new."
Tang Ruowei looked in the direction she pointed, and sure enough, although the vermilion paper window was no different from the window on the other side, if you looked closely, you could still find subtle differences.
There was so little dust on it compared to the rest of the room.
"Since Emperor Qu Peng has guessed, it is impossible not to send people here to check after the event, but those people did not find the problem. First, because this is the prince's painting, they dare not move around, and second, during this period, there must be Someone came back and replaced it."
Zuo Yanfei walked to the window, pushed open the window, and below was the green water of the canal.
"Someone broke in through the window here, or broke through the window."
"Let's look for other clues."
Tang Ruowei suggested.
The two searched the room again. It seemed that this place should have been restored after the incident. Whether it was the decorations on the table or the bedding and mosquito nets, they were all neat and tidy, and they seemed to be ready for Prince Dingguo at any time. Bring people back to live.
"Huh? What's here."
However, after searching, the sharp-eyed Tang Ruowei still found clues on the floor. It was a short piece of white hair stuck in the gap of the wooden floor.
The girl crouched down, ready to reach out and pluck the hair.
"Ruo Wei! Be careful!"
Zuo Yanfei's voice suddenly sounded, Tang Ruowei felt that her back collar was being pulled, and then, a fire broke in from the window, and the floor was scorched black with a screeching sound.
The fire light dissipated, revealing a small red flying sword.
"Cultivator?"
Zuo Yanfei's face froze, she lifted her hem, and her clothes were flying, and two silver short guns were in her hands.
The flying sword turned around and shot at Zuo Yanfei and Tang Ruowei, the former snorted coldly, waving two short spears, bringing a chill, and lightly fighting the flying sword.
After just a few collisions, the flame on this flying sword gradually became smaller, and an area condensed by ice appeared on the blade, and it gradually became larger.
With a screeching sound, the flying sword was retracted, and at the same time, the windows on both sides of the painting room were smashed into pieces at the same time.
The two of them wore masks on their faces, hiding their faces. One of them was holding the flying sword upside down, with flames wrapped around his body, and he reached out and hit Zuo Yanfei with a palm.
And Zuo Yanfei also met backhand without fear, blocking the horizontal spear, repelling the masked man, and then combining the two short spears in his hand, turning it into a silver spear, a little cold light, the spear shot out like a dragon, He stabbed towards the fire cultivator.
At the same time, another masked man also rushed towards Tang Ruowei, and there was cold water vapor on his hand, which seemed to be a monk of the water system.
"Humph."
Before getting hit, Tang Ruowei heard a sneer from his mouth.
This person's cultivation base is slightly higher than Tang Ruowei's, the shot is a sneak attack, and he is a water cultivator. On this canal, he has indeed taken advantage of the right time and place.
But he clearly got one thing wrong.
Seeing the murderous opponent coming, Tang Ruowei no longer hides her moves. Using the dodging skills she has learned from her years of entanglement with the female monkey on the mountain, combined with the flexibility she has learned from the fortune-telling exercise, Tang Ruowei bends her waist and uses an angle that is almost broken. It avoided the opponent's attack by the slightest.
Then she maintained this position and opened her small mouth.
A black sword light flashed away, and the person who attacked him let out a grunt and flew out of the window.
Seeing this result, the fire-type cultivator on the other side was also taken aback. With a careless move, he was also sent flying by Zuo Yanfei.
Tang Ruowei and Zuo Yanfei ran to the window and saw the fire-type cultivator stepping on the flying sword, quickly circled to the other side of the painting boat, caught the water-type cultivator, raised his body without looking back, and left. this canal.
