Chapter 189: Duke Zhou's Mansion Takes People

Sha Tuo Tuo was originally wondering why Wu Chengsi was not there, but when he learned that Wu Chengsi had been framed, he was shocked and said: "How dare someone frame General Wu?"

Ranma said hurriedly: "If the person who wants to kill us is really the one who framed General Wu, then it is not safe here. We'd better go to the East Palace to find Daozhang Li."

Gao Jun would smile coldly: "Do you want to die?"

"What do you mean by that?" Ranma frowned.

"Li Yunxian is the leader of the Fire Phoenix Society, and he is the one who wants to kill you." Gao Junxian said expressionlessly.

Ranma was shocked and said: "How... is this possible?"

Ye Yeluo cursed loudly: "I thought that smelly Taoist priest was not a good person, and I guessed it right."

Sha Tuo Tuo said with a bitter face: "But Daozhang Li saved us many times along the way. Without him, we would have been killed by the people of Nanzhao."

Wen Rong said slowly: "That's because you are still valuable and he needs to use your identities as a cover."

Sha Tuo Tuo was stunned and speechless.

Han Chengdao: "You just said you were leaving Chang'an early in the morning. What's going on?"

Sha Tuo Tuo whispered: "Our country ranked last in the martial arts competition. Your country's Honglu Temple rejected our country's request to join us. We have no choice but to go back."

Wen Rong's eyes lit up: "No wonder Li Yunxian chose to attack you tonight. By tomorrow morning, he only needs to send a few people to pretend to be you and leave Chang'an City, and no one will know that you have been killed."

Sha Tuo Tuo said in a daze: "Why...why did he want to kill us?"

Wen Rong thought for a while and asked, "Do you know any of his secrets?"

"I don't know. We only know that Daozhang Li is from the Tang Dynasty. We don't know anything else." Sha Tuotuo looked confused.

Han Cheng said in a deep voice: "Tell the father-in-law about this tomorrow, he should be able to know the reason."

At this moment, Gao Junhui suddenly turned around and walked out of the hall.

"Brother Gao, where are you going?" Han Cheng asked.

"moral principle."

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure disappeared outside the door.

Gao Junhui came to the moral concept with ease and quietly entered the backyard.

Suddenly, he noticed that the light in a room was on, jumped up, and landed on the roof without making a sound.

After breaking open some bricks and tiles, I saw a man wearing a mask with a ghost face inside the house. He was worshiping the holy elephant of Sanqing again and again, muttering something in his mouth.

About a stick of incense later, the door was suddenly pushed open, and a man shrouded in a cloak walked in.

The grim-faced man turned around and said respectfully: "You are here."

"What's going on? Is there something wrong with the mission?" A young voice came from under the cloak.

"Someone suddenly took action and saved those three people." The grim-faced man gritted his teeth.

"who?"

"Hebei Rangers Gao Junhui." The grim-faced man said every word.

The man in the cloak frowned and said, "Human? How could he get involved?"

The grim-faced man said bitterly: "This person seems to have taken refuge with Wu Chengsi. When he was in Nansu City, he opposed our company once."

The man in the cloak was furious: "You mean he was rescued by Wu Chengsi's men? Where is Wang Ying? Didn't he act with you?"

The grimace man whispered: "Brother Wang is injured. If Gao Jun hadn't been unwilling to fight, we would all have died there."

"Trash!" the cloaked man scolded.

The man with a grimace said: "It is true that we did not handle this matter well, but the matter has come to this, we still have to find a way to deal with those three people, otherwise the plan may fall short."

The cloaked man sat down on a chair and snorted coldly: "Fortunately, I still have a hand left. No matter how powerful Mr. Gao is, there is no way he can deal with a Jinwu Guard."

The man with the grimace thought to himself: "It may not be impossible to deal with it." However, saying such words at this time was tantamount to scolding him, so he stood quietly beside the cloaked man and waited.

About two-quarters of an hour later, a man in black entered the room and said something in the cloaked man's ear. The cloaked man slapped the armrest and said angrily: "You can't even handle this!"

The man with the grimace guessed that the man in the cloak had probably failed, so he said bravely: "Those three people know Hall Master Li's secret, and they must not be allowed to live."

The man in the cloak said impatiently: "How could I not know that Dan people have fallen into the Duke of Zhou's mansion, how can it be so easy to kill them?"

"Wu Chengsi is not in the mansion now, so there should be a way to get three people from the Duke's mansion, right?"

The man in the cloak said coldly: "Wu Chengsi is under house arrest, not in prison. It is impossible for us to get him out of the Duke's Mansion with our own strength."

"Then what should we do?" the grimace man asked anxiously.

The cloaked man thought for a moment and said slowly: "It seems that we can only find a way to borrow the prince's power."

The grimace man said in shock: "You want to borrow his power?"

"Humph, what's all the fuss about? Don't forget that Li Yunxian is now a guest of His Highness the Crown Prince!"

The grimace man's eyes lit up: "That's it."



The next day, it's time.

When the prince came to the study, he found Li Yunxian waiting in the room.

"Daozhang Li, why did you come to see me so early?"

Li Yunxian said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, there is something important that I must report to you."

The prince walked behind the case and sat down, smiling and saying, "Daoist Li has something to do, but it doesn't hurt to say so."

Li Yunxian said: "Your Highness, does he know why Pindao went with the envoy of Piao Kingdom?"

The prince scratched his cheek, frowned and said, "I don't know, maybe there is some special reason for the Taoist priest?"

Li Yunxian said solemnly: "Pindao stayed away from the Central Plains just to find a quiet place to practice Taoism. Unexpectedly, when he was in Piao Kingdom, Pindao accidentally learned a piece of news."

Seeing his serious face, Li Hong couldn't help but ask: "What's the news?"

"There is a sacred drum in the Zhubo tribe of Piao State, which has the effect of confusing people's minds. As long as there are people with superb dancing skills, they can control the minds of others to a certain extent by dancing with this sacred drum."

"Is there such a thing?" the prince asked in surprise.

Li Yunxian said in a deep voice: "Originally, I just heard about this matter and didn't intend to go into it. But later, I heard that the king of Piao State sent people to present music to the Tang Dynasty, and among the people sent, there was the goddess of the Zhubo tribe.

Ranma."

The prince was shocked and said: "Mo, could it be..."

"As you may think now, that sacred drum is in Lanma's hands, and she is also the number one dancer in the Piao Kingdom."

The prince said angrily: "It turns out they have evil intentions!"

Li Yunxian said in a deep voice: "Pindao asked many questions about the purpose of their trip along the way, whether they wanted to use the magic drum to confuse someone in my direction, but they have always been tight-lipped."

The prince scolded: "What else is there to pry about? They must be trying to confuse my father with the divine drum! Taoist priest, you should have told me about this earlier!"

"Pindao once received favor from the king in Piao country and he is also a Taoist. This matter is likely to lead to the destruction of Piao country and involve the lives of hundreds of thousands of people. Therefore, Pindao has to be cautious."

The prince sighed: "You are indeed a man of enlightenment, but now that you are telling me this, have you already found out clearly?"

Li Yunxian said solemnly: "Yesterday, Honglu Temple rejected their request to surrender to the Tang Dynasty and also refused them to perform music at the ceremony of the coming of all nations. Only then did they approach Pindao, hoping that Pindao could help them intercede."

The prince hummed: "I have also heard about this. The Pyu warriors they sent were defeated in one round and were ranked last in the martial arts competition. I even doubted whether they were envoys from the Pyo Kingdom.

"

Li Yunxian said: "They are indeed envoys from the Piao Kingdom, but their entourage was killed by the Nanzhao people on the way. We had no choice but to find a Piao businessman in the West City and let one of the Piao guards under the businessman go to fight."

The prince shook his head and said, "It's so outrageous. You're just treating martial arts as a trifle."

Li Yunxian continued: "They asked Pindao for help, and finally told Pindao their purpose. As you might guess, they wanted to use the divine drum to seduce His Majesty and make him agree to Piao's request to surrender."

The prince snorted and said, "It's true." He said to a follower next to him, "Go and ask General Qi Feng to come over."

Li Yunxian said: "Your Highness, originally Pindao wanted to capture them and come to see you yesterday, but people from the Duke of Zhou's Mansion came across this matter. As you know, Duke Zhou has been investigating Pindao, so the people from the Duke's Mansion took them there.

The three of them were taken away."

The prince slapped the case and said: "It's him again, very good, he dares to defend these three Piao people with ulterior motives, maybe he has some collusion with these three people!"

"By the way, Your Highness, Duke Zhou happened to meet an envoy from Piao State on his way back to Chang'an." Li Yunxian said in a timely manner.
