Zu Zhao secretly thought a few words in his heart: Xin Qiubai? is actually surnamed Xin, which seems to be the surname of Jizhou.

In the distance, the faint sound of horses' hooves can be heard.

Zu Ling hurriedly approached Zu Zhao and asked, "Eldest son, what kind of medicine are you selling in your gourd?"

Zu Zhao turned around and said unhurriedly: "Although the black arrow thief has a deep enmity with my ancestral family, if there is no accident in the Taishou Mansion today, I can take her life." However, it is precisely because there is such an accident in the Taishou Mansion, and there are many intricacies in it, so it must not be hastily acted. Don't look at the Black Arrow Thief as just a woman, if she doesn't want to speak, even any means of coercion and temptation will be impossible. We must find another way to find out who is behind this series of accidents through the Black Arrow Thieves.

Zu Ling asked, "Eldest Prince, do you think there is someone behind this matter?"

Zu Zhao nodded, Shi Cai was on the way to hunt down the thief, and he had already briefly told everyone that something had happened in the Taishou Mansion, and Lu Wei killed Han Xi was indispensable. He said: "Since Lu Wei can infiltrate the Taishou Mansion as a chacha, there must be extremely complex forces behind him. Xin Qiubai is just a person who is good at bowing, and it is impossible to operate this matter.

At this time, Zu Ji came over and asked, "Then, does the matter of Lingzhi County have anything to do with today's affairs?"

Zu Ling also wanted to ask this question, and he looked at Zu Zhao with concern.

Hardly any hesitation, Zu Zhao said with great certainty: "There is definitely something to do with it." There are two things you don't forget, the arrested thieves in the county jail of Lingzhi County have said that the appearance of the Black Arrow Thief and the Hu people in Lingzhi County is to do a big thing. We don't know what this event is, but it's not hard to imagine that it must have been the work of chaos; Secondly, the last time in Lingzhi County, the black arrow thieves fled with the Hu people. "

Zu Ling came over suddenly, since Xin Qiubai fled with the Hu people, it means that her participation in today's assassination operation in Taishoufu was specially arranged, not a private action of the moment. He couldn't help but feel a little emotional in his heart, he was a black arrow thief, a Hu man, a Lingzhi county, and a Taishou Mansion, what kind of conspiracy was this?

Zu Ji on the side didn't think about it so much, he was most concerned about the black arrow thief, so he asked: "But, eldest prince, now what are you doing with that Xinqiubai... Anyway, it's the Black Arrow Thief, you let the people go, what do we do next?

Zu Zhao immediately said: "Let her go is to hope that she will relax her guard, and we will send someone to follow her along the way later." Now that she can escape, she will find a way to join her accomplices. I speculate that the assassins who attacked the Taishou Mansion today are all people with the intention of death, and it doesn't matter if they die, on the contrary, if Xin Qiubai finds other accomplices, he will definitely have to meet with the mastermind behind the scenes.

After listening to Zu Zhao's description, everyone immediately became enlightened.

Zu Ji suddenly perked up and laughed: "It's still the eldest prince's clever plan, I expected that this little girl would not let go, so I simply came to a trick to catch the cicada and the yellow finch behind." Hahaha.

Zu Ling looked at Zu Ji and shook his head, and said: "Where is this praying mantis catching cicadas and yellow finches, you have to study hard like the eldest prince Xi learn Xi, and you must read more books in the future."

After he finished speaking, he turned to Zu Zhao and said, "In this case, I am willing to go and follow the black arrow thief myself." Zu

Zhao thought about it, Zu Ling was his uncle, and he was mostly cautious and sophisticated, so he was the only one in this matter. So he nodded and said: "In this way, then there is Uncle Lao Ling, but Xin Qiubai has a good arrow method, and Lingshu must be more careful."

Zu Ling arched his hand and said: "Don't worry, eldest prince, I will naturally not take it lightly." Subsequently

, Zu Zhao briefly explained the matter of tracking. After all, he has been recognized by Xin Qiubai in the past few days, and it is really not appropriate to track it for too long. So he asked Zuling to bring only one disciple with him, Xin Qiubai was injured, and he would inevitably find a place to settle down to heal later, and then send back someone to report the specific location. He will carefully report the matter to the Taishou Mansion, and ask Liu Taishou to send another capable person to rush over and continue to follow him.

The plan has been decided, Zu Ling took a disciple on the horse, and quietly followed the direction of the black arrow girl's departure.

Zu Zhao arranged for everyone to support the wounded and immediately returned to Pinggang County.

Rushing back to the county seat of Pinggang County, I suddenly saw that the security on the city tower became more and more stringent.

It was the city gate that had just left the city, and the lights at this moment had more than doubled. When Zu Zhao and the others approached from afar, the archers on the castle tower all listed the posture of opening the bow, as long as they saw that the comer was dressed incorrectly, they would immediately meet with arrows. In this regard, although Zu Zhao felt a little strange, after all, his party had not been out of the city for a long time, and the guards on the city tower should definitely remember this matter, and there was no need for such a big battle.

But at the end of the day, there is understanding.

When he came to the city, without waiting for Zu Zhao to speak, the guards on the city tower shouted first: "Who is coming?"

Zu Zhao replied: "We are too guarded by the door of the house, and we will go out of the city to chase the thief, you should know, why ask more." The

guard said in a stern tone: "Now that there is chaos in the city, there is an accident in the Taishou Mansion, and no one is allowed to enter or leave the city at will."

Zu Zhao was a little angry, and his heart became more and more strange, he said emphatically: "Could it be that I didn't make it clear, we just went out of the city to chase the thief, and we just passed by here." If you can't speak, let your leaders speak! The

guard snorted coldly and said disdainfully, "It's just you, not qualified." Hurry up, or I'll give the order to release the arrows.

Zu Ji stepped forward and yelled angrily at the city tower: "Okay, you old thief with no eyes, we help Taishou Mansion chase the thief, someone is injured at this time, but you don't let us enter the city!" If you have the guts, come down, fight alone with grandpa and me, and watch me tell you to. The

guard was furious: "Someone, drive these thieves away for me."

Zu Zhao saw that the situation was very wrong, and hurriedly said: "General Wen Chouwen, the southern governor of Taishou Mansion, we are under his orders. Now there is important news to report to Captain Wendu, and he will not leave anything. If you dare to release arrows, delay our report, and see how you explain afterwards! When

the guard heard this, he couldn't help frowning, but he didn't expect those people below to be able to call out the name of the Southern Governor Wen Chou.

At the same moment, a soldier on the side stepped forward and whispered: "My lord, there is indeed a team of people who are suitable for the right people to go out of the city to chase the thieves on the orders of the Taishou Mansion. It seems that a thief from the west has escaped over the wall. Don't dare to act rashly in this matter. The

guard thought about it and felt that there were already a lot of complicated situations tonight, so he could only say, "You go and ask the king to come up." The

soldier immediately answered, turned and hurried down the tower.

After a while, the soldiers climbed the tower again, bringing with them a general in armor.

After boarding the tower, he understood the situation with the guards, and hurriedly came to the back of the battlements, raised his eyes to look down at the city, and saw that the people who came down from the city were indeed a group of people who were chasing thieves. After pondering for a moment, he beckoned to his men and said, "Open the gates and let them in." After

Zu Zhao and the others entered the city, they passed through the door and saw the Wang Duty Officer who they had known before. He jumped down from his horse, bowed his hand to the king, and asked, "General, what is the matter, why are you suddenly not allowed to enter the city?" I

saw that the face of the official Wang was pale, and there was a very solemn sorrow between his eyebrows. Before he could speak, the gate closed very quickly, and the sound of the heavy closing of the door had a faint meaning through the doorway. He let out a long sigh and said in a low voice: "The righteous man doesn't know, just two quarters of an hour ago, the news came from the Taishou Mansion, alas, Liu Taishou... Liu Taishou was stabbed to death..."

As soon as the words came out, Zu Zhao and the others all widened their eyes and were surprised.

They were obviously waiting for Liu Taishou to retreat with his whole body, and then followed Wen Chou and the others to the city to hunt down the fugitive assassins, why was Liu Taishou suddenly assassinated at this time?

Zu Zhao had countless thoughts in his mind, he thought of those assassins who had escaped, and he also thought of Xin Qiubai caught outside the city, and his heart couldn't help but flash a very shocking realization: Could it be that all this is a plan to attack the west? There were two fires in the north courtyard, blocking the gap, leaving the way out to the south, and the assassins could have such a careful plan, it was absolutely impossible not to think of the passage to the south. In other words, the assassins deliberately let Liu Taishou and the others escape from the south!
