Chapter 87

  Late at night, Kaifeng Prefecture.

  A strong wind blows the stone turtle to the great hall of Kaifeng.

  Kaifeng's seven sons were all shocked by the strange phenomenon and gathered in the main hall to study it.

  Finally, Zhan Zhao recognized it as a dragon turtle under the stone tablet in the Imperial Garden.

  Bao Zheng thought this matter was of great importance, so he sent someone to invite the Eighth Wise King, Wang Chengxiang and Pang Taishi to his mansion.

  These big heads gathered together and came to a conclusion: the emperor went out of the palace in disguise, sent thunder and lightning to deliver the dragon turtle, and now it's probably gone wrong.

  Before long, thunder and lightning flashed, and Longgui shed blood and tears again. This is an omen of great disaster, indicating that the emperor must have encountered a mishap.

  Several high-ranking officials of the court couldn't help but feel apprehensive, after several discussions they decided to let Xianzhao and others rush to Yizhou first. This was because Yizhou was also known as Guicheng in ancient times, and the military governor of Yizhou was Shi Guozhu. The wind sent Shi Gui, Longgui shed blood and tears, all of which seemed to indicate that this matter should be in Yizhou City.

  Baxian Wang and others will make some arrangements in the capital city before rushing to Yizhou to meet with Zhan Zhao and Bao Zheng, who is about to arrive.

  Kaifeng Prefecture has a well-developed water transportation system, so Emperor Renzong's entry into Shu by water route was naturally very fast and convenient.

  Zhan Zhao and others entered the river, their horses did not stop, they did not dare to delay for a moment, of course, they could only go faster.

  The emperor's body is tied to the state, at this time it is absolutely impossible to be careless, and a slight mistake will lead to a catastrophic event.

  While all these people were busy with their own affairs, Little Phoenix had already finished touring the scenic Mount Emei with Xiao He and was heading to Dujiangyan.

  As soon as they entered the city, they saw the official notice of catching water thieves.

  Lu Xiaofeng stood in front of the bulletin board for half a day, then led his horse away silently.

  Although that picture is a bit distorted, it can still be recognized roughly. She looks familiar no matter how she looks. Then, suddenly, I thought of it - the whole person is about to go crazy!

  This is Su Tong, the eunuch of Emperor Renzong!

  Is this Judge Bao's court?

  Oh my god!

  How did she rush into this unit?

  What is she going to do now?

  Leave the city?

  This is obviously too irresponsible.

  Interfere?

  How can I start again?

  This time's affair is really a science fiction fantasy play, and her identity with cannon fodder potential might have been revealed here by accident.

  The world is so beautiful, she actually still has a strong attachment to the mortal world.

  Xiao Feng found a relatively secluded inn and rented a medium-sized room, where she settled Xiao He.

  "Miss..." Xiao He looked at her with some resentment.

  Lu Xiaofeng set aside some luggage for her and took only a few essentials with him.

  "Xiaohe, I don't have time to explain things clearly to you, but all I can tell you is that it's very dangerous and important. You won't be able to help me if you're by my side, so just stay here and wait for me to finish what I need to do."

  "But it's very dangerous..."

  "Don't worry, I'll be very careful, it's easier for me to handle alone."

  "That young lady must be very careful."

  "I know."

  "The servant is waiting here for the young lady to come and pick me up."

  "Alright, I'll definitely come back for you. I haven't traveled all over the great Song Dynasty's lands yet, so naturally I won't let anything happen to myself."

  "Uh-huh."

  After settling down Xiao He, Lu Xiaofeng rode away on his red-maned horse.

  Go to the tavern and teahouse to gather information first.

  At this time, she could not openly ask for any news, and the governor Shi Guozhu was a cunning and treacherous person who might be alerted by even the slightest rumor. She could only get the information she wanted from the gossip of the common people.

  In less than two days, there was news that a scholar named Shu had killed someone and been arrested by Magistrate Shi.

  The judicial process is completely unfair!

  The murder of a scholar is just a criminal case, and it's not worth the attention of a king who has been granted the title of General Governor to personally inquire about it, let alone put someone in his palace.

  This is where Shuxiu comes in handy!

  Lu Xiaofeng obtained a lot of information from the people's discussions and then sought out Shu Xiucai's home.

  As a result, Shu Xiuzai's wife Wei Shi had already left home, and his daughter Xiaofang was handed over to the neighbors for care.

  Because he knew that the little girl would have the protection of her turtle grandson, Lu Xiaofeng no longer paid attention to Shu Fang's safety and focused on arranging the route that Su Tong might take after being injured and arriving at the Shu family.

  She disguised herself as a mountain villager gathering herbs and began conducting a blanket search in the nearby mountains and valleys.

  Remember that Xiao Mao was badly abused because of this case. No matter what, he is her property, and she doesn't mind abusing him herself, but if others touch him, she will be very displeased!

  When the slightly arrogant Little Phoenix Maiden was still searching for Emperor Renzong, Zhan Zhao had already obtained the exact address from Shu Wei's family after meeting Bao Zheng in Yizhou and went to rescue her.

  Unfortunately, Zhan Zhao was secretly calculated by Mo Yan, and even he and Emperor Renzong were tied up like a rice dumpling and carried down the mountain in a sedan chair.

  Zhan Zhao, who had come to his senses midway, burst out of the sedan chair and led Mo Yan and others away. By the time he was caught again by Mo Yan after fainting from poisoning and brought back to the original location of the sedan chair, Emperor Renzong, who had been unconscious in the sedan chair, was gone!

  Mo Yan was shocked.

  Emperor Renzong was rescued by the little swallow maiden who was also searched nearby, at this time of heaven and earth, it would be foolish not to take advantage of people's fortune.

  However, it's more troublesome to save someone who has fainted and is unconscious.

  Xiaofeng dragged Emperor Renzong to a hidden place and hid him. After Moyan and his men searched in vain and left with a sullen face, she thought of ways to wake up the emperor.

  Emperor Renzong slowly opened his eyes and saw a face that was not unfamiliar.

  "Your Majesty, don't be anxious?"

  "Ah, Pang Aiqing." Seeing her, Emperor Renzong inexplicably felt a sense of relief. This "Phoenix Maiden" he had personally appointed was no ordinary person.

  "Your Majesty, here." Lu Xiaofeng took out a package of dry rations from the medicine bag behind his back and handed it over.

  Emperor Renzong did not go to meet her immediately, but instead asked: "How could I be here? Where is the imperial guard?"

  It's okay, vigilance is high!

  "Huang Sheng protected the emperor and led him out of the palace, taking advantage of the opportunity to rescue him while Mo Yan and others were distracted."

  "Are you looking for me? How can you be looking for me?"

  "I saw the official wanted poster, and the person on it is Su Tong, a eunuch of Your Majesty. I know that Su Tong is one of Your Majesty's close attendants, so I dare to guess that Your Majesty has gone out in disguise because something has happened."

  So he conveniently searched for the route that Su Tong might have taken to escape at that time, and today he coincidentally found this place, where he happened to run into Xian Zhao fighting with Mo Yan.

  "All I can say is, Heaven bless our Emperor."

  Emperor Renzong said: "If someone else had said this, I would have doubted it. But since you and Bao Zheng said it, I believe it."

  "Thank you for the Emperor's trust."

  Emperor Renzong then accepted and ate the dry rations.

  When the Emperor had eaten his fill and regained his strength, Luk Siu Fung said: "Your Majesty, let's go."

  "Where shall we go?"

  "Nowadays, we can't even trust outsiders, and can only wait for the arrival of the Eight Wise Kings."

  "Imperial Uncle?"

  "Since Bao Da has arrived in Yizhou, the matter concerns the safety of the Emperor. The Eighth Wise King will also inevitably follow after arranging the affairs in the capital. As for now, my priority is to ensure Your Majesty's safety."

  Ren Zong listened to her analysis and nodded in agreement, "What you said is indeed true."

  On the other hand, Zhan Zhao, who was caught by Mo Yan and brought back to the Junwang Mansion, was also thrown into the same house as Bao Zheng and Gong Sun Ce.

  Bao Zheng and others were shocked when they saw Zhan Zhao severely injured, and upon hearing that the Emperor had escaped, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

  Under Gong Sun Ce's skilled hands, Xian Zhao, who had fainted, was also revived.

  "Are you all right, Huan Wei?"

  "It's nothing serious, but it has worried the adults."

  Bao Zheng said anxiously: "Now I don't know whether the Emperor is safe or not."

  Zhan Zhao took out a hairpin from his sleeve.

  At the sight of the hairpin, Gong Sun Ce's eyes lit up involuntarily, "Zhan Huwei..."

  Zhan Zhao nodded, "This is what I picked up in the sedan, it was left there on purpose by her."

  Bao Zheng was somewhat perplexed.

  Gongsun Ce smiled slightly and said, "Sir, you don't know this, but this object was left to protect and escort someone. Since it's still at the scene, that means the person was also present at the time."

  Bao Zheng suddenly realized who Mr. Gong Sun was talking about - Divine Detective Feng Ji!

  It just so happened that the girl who loved to travel had arrived at this place and coincidentally encountered this matter, so she naturally lent a hand.

  "But now with crises surrounding the Emperor, how can a weak woman like her..." Bao Zheng couldn't help but worry.

  Gongsun Ce was also worried. Although that girl was clever and unmatched, this was Shi Guozhu's territory, and he feared she would be no match for him.

  "Sir, I trust she will not betray your trust." Her trump card has never been fully revealed, and with a hidden card, she can turn the tables at any time.

  Bao Zheng and Gong Sun Ce exchanged a glance, both nodded in unison, they trusted the people who protected them, and they also had reasons to believe that person.

  When that person who made them all believe whistled for the red-maned fierce horse, Emperor Renzong no longer had to use his noble feet to walk.

  But Little Phoenix Maiden became a temporary groom, with distinction between lord and subject, male and female, saying whatever is not suitable for riding one horse together.

  "It turned out that this horse was the one that Emperor Pong Yu wanted for you." Emperor Renzong couldn't help but feel a little nostalgic when he thought of An Le Hou's trip to the imperial stables.

  "Could it be that this horse was what Pang Yu asked of His Majesty?"

  The Emperor Renzong smiled and said, "Alright then."

  This statement is ambiguous.

  But now, how to settle the emperor has really become a problem.

  The safest place is often the most dangerous place. At this time, returning to the city should be fine. However, if something were to happen, there would truly be nowhere to escape.

  That is roughly the comfort of Shi Guozhu's subordinate, with 100,000 troops under his command. It is estimated that both water and land routes are now blocked, and they cannot leave Yizhou even if they want to.

  Finally, Luk Siu Fung decided to enter the city!

  However, Emperor Renzong's luck has been pretty bad lately, and it just so happened that he was seen by that rascal Xiaba Tian when he saved Shu Weishi that day.

  That Nasir Tien thought that one of this young master's subordinates was worth 500 taels of silver, then this young master himself must be worth even more.

  He saw that he was only accompanied by a young groom, so he called over several of his henchmen to secretly follow and plan to take control of the person first.

  Little Phoenix was naturally aware of being followed, but she didn't show any sign.

  At this time, dare to follow over, that is looking for death!

  At the necessary time, shoot the criminal dead on the spot is common sense.

  The little phoenix girl finally stopped at a remote and dilapidated old mansion with her horse.

  Emperor Renzong was also startled when he saw those five or six people appear.

  The little phoenix girl holding the horse was very calm, silently sizing up her opponent.

  Xī Bà Tiān Dào said: "You were so arrogant that day, weren't you? Now one of your followers is dead, and I've earned 500 taels. If I bind you up and send you to the authorities, I'll surely get even more."

  Little Phoenix Maiden nodded in agreement, "You're right, you'll get a lot of it!" Hell money!

  "Sir, don't get off your horse."

  Ren Zong nodded, understanding that she was hinting that he should retreat on horseback when the timing wasn't right.

  What can a weak and helpless young woman like her do in such a situation?

  Lu Xiaofeng estimated the distance and pressed down on the mechanism on his left arm, then the three thugs surrounding them fell silently to the ground.

  At the same time, she flipped out a small knife from her sleeve and struck another thug's chest with one hit.

  Emperor Renzong stared blankly at her, cleanly and efficiently taking down five thugs in an instant, leaving only the initially arrogant Western King.

  Xī Bà Wáng's legs had turned to jelly at this point, he really hadn't noticed that this handsome and pretty groom was so agile, in the blink of an eye he had taken down his man.

  He wants to run, but Little Phoenix won't let him run away.

  A few swift steps forward, a shoulder throw sent the person flying out, and with one move, he was thrown to the ground with a miserable cry.

  Then, with a swift fall, an elbow struck his chest, and blood immediately gushed out of Xiaba Tian's mouth. Lu Xiaofeng looked at him coldly and said, "If one is too greedy, there will be retribution."

  "The Emperor is shocked."

  Emperor Renzong exclaimed: I'm really shocked! This girl is simply beyond people's expectations!

  "I have no choice but to kill them and silence them." said Little Phoenix Maiden.

  The Emperor Renzong nodded to show he understood, "What about these corpses?"

  "Don't bother with them, they're just street rascals and thugs, the common people abhor them deeply. Even if the authorities saw it, they would probably just think it's a street fight that ended in death."

  "Then let's go."

  "Yes."
