After resting for a while, Wen Qingzhu put on his night clothes and sent He Lai to keep an eye on the palace.
"Do you want to watch Denton?" He Lai thought of her purpose almost immediately.
Wen Qingzhu nodded helplessly: "Yes, I met him once, and it was a bit of a holiday, so I don't feel like meeting him now, understand?"
He Lai nodded: "Don't worry, sir, I'll go right away."
After sending him away, Wen Qingzhu turned to look at Beidou and said to him, "Let's go to Zuolan's house."
A quarter of an hour later, the roof of Zuolan's house came up.
Wen Qingzhu lifted up the tiles on the roof and looked at the two people inside.
One of them is the left column, and the other is an old man who looks very old, with white hair, but looks smart and capable.
"Sir, we don't need to worry about the death of eldest brother. What matters now is the death of Lord Gehun!"
The steady visitor didn't even move an eyelid, and after a long time he said: "I know Gehun's death. How Gao Lan died is the key now. If you don't tell me, someone will naturally investigate for me."
Zuo Lan was so anxious that he walked around the room and couldn't stand at all: "Sir! Brother's death involves too many people, and some of the things he knew are best not to be exposed. If he dies, he will die. If you continue to pursue these matters, the Asan tribe will be targeted!"
"You don't have to worry about us, you are the second prince's son now." The old man turned his head and looked at him deeply.
Zuo Column felt guilty and stopped and stood still.
Seeing him like this, the old man said earnestly: "I know you have a good relationship with Gehun, but as you said, if Gehun is really the one who did it, Master Xiaoshui, if she can have such ability, she must either He is related to the White Wolf tribe, or he is someone from Qi State."
Wen Qingzhu on the roof was shocked when he heard this.
This old man could actually guess her identity!
Zuo Column suddenly asked: "How can she be Qi Ren? I have been in contact with her many times, but I don't feel that she has Qi Ren's characteristics?"
"Then you have more contact with that Lu Ce? Have you noticed?" The old man used Lu Ce as an example without hesitation.
The left column forcefully defended: "Lu Ce has been in the Wuzhu Palace. With Lord Wuzhu's guarantee, no one dares to doubt it."
The old man shook his head: "You don't understand, Qi Ren... is much more powerful than we thought."
Zuo Column opened his mouth, but still didn't say anything.
The old man stood up slowly, put his hands behind his back, and said to him earnestly: "I tell you again, you are the second prince's son now. When you chose him, you must serve the second prince wholeheartedly. I heard that you Lost the Qi Ren slave bought by the second prince? Is this possible?"
"Yes." The left column was very discouraged.
The old man sighed heavily: "You kid, you are good at everything, but you are too nostalgic. If you hadn't been more ruthless, I wouldn't have recommended you, but your eldest brother!"
"I also hope it's my eldest brother. In this case, I can die for him." Zuo Column didn't know what he thought of, and his voice was a little choked.
The old man reached out and touched his head: "Zuolan, I'll check on Gaolan's affairs. You just concentrate on your own affairs. As for Gehun's affairs, Xiaoliu will naturally handle them. He is also a prince. This If something can’t be handled well, then the Asan tribe won’t have to support him!”
After hearing this, Zuo Column suddenly raised his head: "Do you want to support the second prince?"
The old man shook his head slowly, and the left column became more and more incredible.
If you don't support the second prince, doesn't that mean you support the fourth prince
But now the fourth prince has found the White Wolf tribe as an ally, and King Zuo Xian has a deep feud with the Asan tribe. They will not accept the Asan tribe anyway.
Now the fourth prince has gone to the White Wolf tribe and built a Korza tribe by himself, which speaks volumes!
The old man left, and the left column also left.
Wen Qingzhu regretted a little. If she had come earlier, would she have known how Gao Lan died
But it was okay now, at least the person who came to investigate the cause of Gehun's death was the Sixth Prince.
Wen Qingzhu wanted to see who this sixth prince was.
After some inquiring, Beidou took her to the tent where the slaves were kept.
I don’t know if it’s because many slaves were rescued last time, but the guards this time are much tighter, comparable to the white guards in the palace.
Wen Qingzhu squatted in the grass, looking at the tent over there, thinking in his heart.
How could she save those captured slaves
After a while, Beidou suddenly became alert and looked to the right side of him.
Wen Qingzhu felt his nervousness and quickly tilted his head.
Unexpectedly, his cheek touched the withered grass and he made an extremely small sound.
The movement there suddenly stopped.
Seeing this, Wen Qingzhu immediately held his breath. The people over there didn't know whether they were friends or foes, and the situation was still unclear.
When she was considering whether to retreat, several horses suddenly rushed towards the tent in front of them like crazy.
Wen Qingzhu immediately looked over there and realized that someone wanted to save him too!
Without any hesitation, Wen Qingzhu handed the fire guide to Beidou: "Go and set the fire! Fight quickly!"
Beidou hesitated and looked at her worriedly.
Wen Qingzhu shook his head: "Don't worry! I feel like I'll be fine!"
Beidou quickly left.
As soon as he left, Wen Qingzhu immediately prepared the poison, quietly pulled out the stopper, and let the poisonous smoke spread.
Wen Qingzhu waited silently, using the Turtle Breathing Technique Fu Lie gave her to stop breathing.
Time suddenly slowed down, which made Wen Qingzhu feel very tortured.
She felt a little regretful. If she knew martial arts, maybe it wouldn't be so difficult.
While she was alert to her surroundings, the sound of rustling withered grass kept coming closer.
somebody is coming!
Wen Qingzhu squatted and did not move. She believed that ordinary people would not notice her.
Unfortunately, the people who came this time were not ordinary people!
A hand instantly grabbed her shoulder and pulled her back.
The person behind her was about to lift her up, but suddenly let go and knelt down on one knee.
Wen Qingzhu then turned around, and in the faint starlight, he saw clearly that the kneeling man had a very familiar hat on his head.
Without any hesitation, she blurted out in Chinese dialect: "It's you!"
The man immediately raised his head, with a pale face filled with a faint black air.
He opened his mouth and mouthed: I am from the Prince Regent.
Wen Qingzhu was startled and quickly took out the antidote and handed it to his mouth.
After the man swallowed it, the black air on his face immediately dissipated a lot.
Without waiting for Wen Qingzhu to ask questions, the man immediately stood up, looked behind her and said, "Sir, follow me quickly! Someone will be here soon!"
"I have to wait for Beidou!" Wen Qingzhu refused his request.
"No! This time, the fourth and sixth princes are here, and the elites of several tribes are here! If it is Beidou, he will definitely be able to escape! But it is not necessarily possible to bring the adults! What about the prince? There is news from the side that Miss Lei Shuo is also on her way over!"
In order to win her trust, this man took out a token.
Wen Qingzhu took it and saw that it was the token belonging to Fu Lie's subordinate.
While she was hesitating, someone in the distance was running towards her in a wavy trajectory.
That speed looked familiar to Wen Qingzhu, it was Beidou.
She immediately turned around and said to the visitor: "Let's go!"
The man immediately picked up Wen Qingzhu and left here quickly.
About two-quarters of an hour later, they arrived at the place where people lived outside the city. A large area was full of tents.
Wen Qingzhu followed this man to one of the tents.
In order to guide Beidou, Wen Qingzhu left incense powder for tracking.
Entering the tent, Wen Qingzhu saw two tall women at a glance.
Excellent appearance, wheat complexion, sharp eyebrows, and looks full of heroism.
Seeing Wen Qingzhu, she immediately knelt down on one knee and saluted: "I have met the princess!"
Wen Qingzhu walked over and helped her up: "You're welcome! What exactly did the prince ask you to come here for?"
Fu Lie's letter to her now never mentions this group of people.
The woman stood up and said, "We are here to save the people of Qi, and my mother-in-law."
"She's here with you!" Wen Qingzhu seemed to understand something instantly.
The woman nodded and said: "Yes, Sanniang should have been sent away immediately, but she found out that Tudan was in Tianying City and insisted on staying, so I went to Gailou to inquire about it for her. It's a pity. What's more, I didn't meet the princess, but I was almost discovered."
Lightning flashed in Wen Qingzhu's mind. She stared blankly at the woman in front of her and asked, "Were you the slave girl who was captured by the merchants of Tianying City and sent to build a building?!"
"That's right, and I also lost Sanniang's token." The woman lowered her eyes, looking a little remorseful.
Wen Qingzhu shook his head quickly: "No, no! Don't worry! Later I went to Gailou and got the Luozi back! Now the Luozi is in Tudan's hands!"
The woman's eyes lit up: "Really!?"
Wen Qingzhu nodded: "Yes."
The woman immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing her like this, Wen Qingzhu felt a little heavy, so she came over to find Tudan's mother-in-law.
As a result, the people sent by Fu Lie found it first.
So from the beginning, Fu Lie decided to hide it from her
The man at the door opened the curtain, poked his head in and said, "Beidou is back!"
Not long after, Beidou came into the tent.
Just when Wen Qingzhu was about to ask him about the situation there, he noticed another faint fragrance coming from Beidou.
She walked over and smelled it carefully, her expression suddenly changed.
He suddenly raised his head and looked outside and said: "We must leave immediately! Beidou has been poisoned with tracking incense!"
But the woman quickly said: "Sanniang hasn't come back yet!"
Wen Qingzhu turned around and asked her, "Where is she?"
The man behind explained: "Sanniang is very familiar with the camp where slaves are kept, so she took the initiative to lead the way tonight, so she is the main person to be arrested now! Maybe-"
Wen Qingzhu took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said, "Beidou, go back and save Sanniang! You must rescue Sanniang no matter what!"
She quickly took out two purple pills and two packs to stop the bleeding and gave them to Beidou: "Remember! Come back alive!"
Beidou followed without hesitation, but the man stepped forward to stop him: "Sir! You must not! The situation tonight is different from before! The Sixth Prince has been staying in Qi State, and the methods he used are not the methods of the Xiongnu at all! The Fourth Prince’s people are already comparable to the Prince’s people! Now they have joined forces to catch us!”
He looked outside and saw a fire approaching, and said solemnly: "Sanniang may not be able to be saved!"
Wen Qingzhu ignored him and turned around to let Beidou set off.
The woman suddenly walked out and said, "I'm going too! I know the situation here better than Beidou. With me here, he can act better!"
"No!" The man's hand tightened and he pulled the curtain open with a squeaking sound.
The woman's expression was a little sad: "Brother Bian, I have the blood of the Huns in my body. It is not easy to survive until now. If it weren't for you and my godmother, I wouldn't be alive now. Now the prince has saved me." It’s time for us to repay him!”
The man's eyes suddenly turned red and he gritted his teeth, but he never said a word.
Finally, the man got out of the way.
The woman took Beidou out and soon disappeared.
The man turned around and got the torch. When Wen Qingzhu walked away, he lit the place directly.
When the fire started, the chasing group had just arrived.
