"Okay, let's go now."

"It's not us, it's you!"

"Well, I'll take you there. At your speed, you might be late."

"Yeah, I'm slow!"

??? Are you playing me? Li Xiuzhu didn't say much, holding Su Chengcheng's waist with one hand and lifting her up slightly, and then he kept moving.

The sudden speed scared Su Chengcheng, but she became excited when she found she was safe.

"Brother Xiuzhu, have you ever learned martial arts?"

"Well, now is not the time to talk. I'll talk to you later."

"good!"

In less than a minute, Li Xiuzhu had already sent Su Chengcheng to the government office in Shangjing City.

"Go ahead. If no one is here, come out immediately. I'll take you to the Imperial Sword Gate."

"If there is anyone here, you should stay here and don't let anyone bully Nong Yue."

"I'll leave before dark."

Su Chengcheng nodded when he heard this and ran in quickly.

Before entering the door, I heard the young master shouting softly.

"Who is it?"

Upon hearing this, Su Chengcheng glared at the young master.

"I am the daughter of Master Su, and I am looking for your prefect."

As soon as Su Chengcheng announced his name, Yanei's face changed immediately.

"Please, Miss Su. I am sorry for offending you just now."

"Um!"

Su Chengcheng was about to go in when she suddenly stopped.

"Is the courtesan from Shanglinyuan who came to report the case today still inside?"

"Uh, yes, but the Imperial Sword Sect just came to ask for someone, so they might be going through the formalities."

Upon hearing this, Su Chengcheng hurried inside.

As soon as I entered and took a few steps, I saw Yanei and Nong Yue from Yudaomen who were about to come out.

"Sister Nong Yue!"

"Cheng Cheng, why are you here?"

However, before the two of them could say anything, Shen Lian, the leader of the Yudao Sect, blocked them.

"Who are you?"

Hmm??? One by one, it will never end.

Although she was angry, Su Chengcheng said it again.

"I am the daughter of Master Su."

As the daughter of Grand Tutor Su, Shen Lian’s face looked better, but only slightly.

"Please forgive me, Miss Su. Nong Yue Hua Kui is now a witness and a suspect. You cannot talk now."

"Huh??? Suspect? What? You still want to torture my sister?"

Shen Lian remained silent after hearing this. He would have to see how well the other party confessed before deciding whether or not to use torture.

As soon as Shen Lian was silent, Su Chengcheng understood.

"Very good, you are really amazing. Instead of arresting the real murderer, you want to torture my sister into confessing."

Nong Yue hurriedly said, "Sister Cheng Cheng, don't talk nonsense. How could the Imperial Sword Sect be tortured into confessing? Many people saw the Silla prince killing the fourth prince."

"Okay, you go back first! I'm fine."

Su Chengcheng shook his head when he heard this.

"Anyway, they can question you, but they can't torture you."

"Let's go. I'll accompany my sister to the Imperial Sword Gate. I want to see who dares to torture me today."

Shen Lian sneered when he heard this. After all, she was a flower bud that had never experienced any wind and rain, and yet she was involved in the case of the Fourth Prince. Not to mention that you are the daughter of the Grand Tutor, even if the Grand Tutor came, you cannot escape punishment.

"I'm sorry Miss Su, you should go back and ask your master for instructions on this matter. This is not something you can interfere with."

"My Yudaomen is not a place that anyone can enter."

"Even if you go, the punishment will still be used."

What Shen Lian meant by this was that torture would not be used as long as there was no suspicion. However, when Su Chengcheng heard this, the meaning changed, as if torture was necessary.

Su Chengcheng took a deep breath and took out the gold medal from his arms.

The moment Shen Lian saw the gold medal, his heart sank. After reading the words on it clearly, he immediately knelt down.

"Long live the emperor. Long live the emperor."

"Hmph, now I have the rights?"

Shen Lian was confused. He never thought that this little girl actually had the emperor's gold medal in her hand.

How did you get it? If you had a gold medal, you should have told me earlier.

"Su Qinchai, you are joking. Now you naturally have the right."

"Hmph, slap yourself."

Shen Lian didn't hesitate and slapped himself in the face.

Su Chengcheng finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Let's go to Yudaomen. You can ask whatever you want. I won't get involved. As I said before, you can ask questions, but you are not allowed to torture."

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Shen Lian breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Su Chengcheng did not make trouble, otherwise he would have been skinned alive today.

"Miss Su, please."

The group then left the government office.

At the same time, on the other side, Yang Xiao was confronting Da Dilu.

"Da Dilu, I advise you to surrender. Otherwise, if fighting breaks out, I won't be able to ensure your safety."

Da Dui Lu has not yet recovered from Yang Xiao's words.

Just now, when he asked Yang Xiao why he came to arrest them and how he dared to do so, the other party gave a shocking answer.

Duo Luo killed the fourth prince of Da Zhou.

How dare Duo Luo? This is the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Glancing at the increasing number of Yu Dao Men, Da Dui Lu knew that the situation was hopeless, but he still couldn't help but said, "I want to see your Majesty."

"I will, but now you must go to Yudaomen with us."

Dawei Lu nodded.

"good!"

"Put down your weapons."

At this moment, a man walked up behind Yang Xiao and whispered, "Boss, word just came from the East City Gate that Duo Luo broke through the gate and ran away."

Run away?

Yang Xiao paused, his eyes becoming fierce.

"Send five teams of 100 men, each with two horses, to chase in five directions in the direction of Silla."

"Also send another five hundred-man teams to search the area around Shangjing. If there are any suspicious people, arrest them first."

The cold tone made Yang Xiao's men feel nervous.

"promise!"

At the same time, Emperor Li Kuo also received news that his son might have died.

Suddenly, Li Kuo, who was reviewing memorials, swayed.

"Prince of Silla, what a Silla prince you are, you actually dared to kill my son."

"Send the Prime Minister Fu, the Minister of Revenue, the Lord of Wu'an, and the General to discuss this matter."

"Tell the officer in charge of this case to find out the truth as soon as possible. I will only give him one day."

"Also, check what Kun'er's guards are doing. If they are derelict in their duties, they will all be executed."

The eunuch Wang Defa, the chief eunuch in charge of the palace, also knew that His Majesty was really angry, so he dared not say anything more.

"promise."

Just when the situation in Shangjing City was in turmoil, Li Xiuzhu came to the East Gate again after seeing that Nong Yue and Su Chengcheng were fine.

"Open the door, the Imperial Sword Sect has been ordered to capture the murderer."

With a shout, chaos broke out on the city wall.

Seeing this, Li Xiuzhu's expression changed. He took advantage of the chaos to suddenly appear in the herd and hid under a horse.

There are thousands of people and horses in this wave, so it would be very easy to blend in with them.

After leaving the city, Li Xiuzhu spotted a bush and dodged it.

Although it caused some subtle noises, no one noticed it amid the roar of horse hooves.

After the guards left, Li Xiuzhu quickly ran towards the Guanyin Temple where Fu Yuehua was.
