Chapter 273 Audacity

Chapter 273 Audacity

The bad guy’s head is about to explode.

Yesterday, his bad guys searched several nests of wandering ghosts underground, but several big guys said that they didn't have such ignorant guys under their command, which directly put an end to his idea of ​​solving the case that day.

And last night, someone broke into General Wan's house again.

Others may not know it, but as a high-ranking official in the Public Security Department of Chang'an, Buliang Shuai is also a cultivator himself. However, everyone knows that this low-key General Zhonglang is actually a real living immortal with inner world. Even if he was seriously injured before, he is not someone that an ordinary thief can touch.

There were two thieves, both were cultivators, and one of them was from the Third Heaven.

This is the information given by Wan Qiming.

Although Wan Qiming has a high level of cultivation, he is not good at investigating cases, and he doesn't even have much interpersonal communication. In order to find his treasure as soon as possible, he had to ask for help from the Buliang Shuai. Moreover, the other party's howl yesterday was heard by half of the neighborhood, so it was difficult to hide it even if he wanted to.

Buliang Shuai felt that the matter was a bit serious. Two petty thieves were not a big deal, and it was not a big deal if the thieves were all cultivators. But if two petty thieves dared to steal, they could also steal things from Nei Jing. Once this got out, the entire upper class of Chang'an would be in an uproar.

Who doesn’t have some shameful things in their home?

So the bad commander decisively reported the matter to the chief official of Chang'an, Jingzhao Yin. Jingzhao Yin did not dare to neglect it. On the one hand, he sent more people to assist the bad commanders of the two counties to investigate the case, and on the other hand, he urgently reported the matter to the palace. As the matter involved internal affairs, he had to be cautious.

The prince was still in a lot of trouble. He had just found an excuse to imprison several princes who had lost their fiefdoms, which directly led to a joint counterattack from several of their families. A court meeting almost broke out into a fight.

Now that the court had just ended, the Liao envoy requested a meeting to discuss the specific details of borrowing troops. Before they arrived, the Jingzhao Yin asked for a meeting again, saying that two petty thieves had appeared in Chang'an.

Do you want me to catch the thief for you myself?

The prince wanted to smash the inkstone on the head of Jingzhao Yin, but his little bit of common sense stopped him.

The Jingzhao Yin deliberately reported this matter. It must be that there is something special about these two little thieves. Let's listen to it.

After listening to Jingzhao Yin's description, the prince smiled and said, "You worry too much, my dear minister. General Wan has been feeling a little unwell recently, so it's not a big deal if he occasionally makes a mistake. However, we still have to catch him. I will offer sacrifices to my ancestors soon, and I hope to hear good news from you then."

The Jingzhao Yin kowtowed and left, and the prince's smile immediately disappeared.

Jingzhao Yin is just an ordinary man, but the prince is a cultivator. He knows about Wan Qiming's affairs, but even if Wan Qiming does not use his spiritual power, the prince asks himself if he is sure of winning. These two little thieves are very capable.

So the prince touched the scroll in his arms. Now he no longer asked palace servants to serve him even when he took a bath, to ensure that he always had one hand holding the painting.

No one dared to ignore Mr. Big's threat.

The East and West Markets underwent a surprise inspection today. The shops selling jade and handicrafts became the hardest hit areas. A large number of bad guys and Wu Hou poured in. Countless jade Buddhas were pulled out. Several unlucky guys who were used to cheating and deceiving people and felt guilty were dragged away directly.

Hu Shang swallowed his saliva, looked carefully again at the place where he hid the things, and felt a little panicked.

Which deity did these two heroes offend?

Zhao Yushu was reading and the wolf girl was counting money.

Zhao Yushu counted the seven silver bills over and over again, and was worried that she would crush them with her strong hands.

"Junior Brother, what can you buy with seven hundred taels?"

"It can buy 700,000 big white steamed buns. If you eat three a day, it will last you 600 years."

“Why can I only eat three a day?”

Zhao Yushu was speechless and raised his hands in surrender: "You can eat thirty, that will last you sixty years."

The wolf girl looked up and thought about it, then felt that it was enough, and happily stuffed the banknotes into her arms.

"How about you go out for a walk?" What's the point of making money if you don't spend it? Zhao Yushu's consumption concept is very advanced.

The wolf girl shook her head: "If the Liao people recognize us, we will be in big trouble."

Zhao Yushu originally wanted to cover it up with makeup, but then she thought that she couldn't afford to make any mistakes at this moment, so she decided to wait until she finished her business before having fun.

So Zhao Yushu continued to read, and the wolf girl took the map of Chang'an and continued to study it, sliding her fingers back and forth across several wealthy areas, trying to find the next victim.

"Junior brother, do you dare to play a big one?"

Zhao Yushu, who was reading, shuddered. "I went to Neijing's house to play yesterday, and you still think it's not old enough?"

"Where do you want to go, Senior Sister?"

The wolf girl placed the map on the table and moved her finger up slowly, pointing towards the North City.

Tai Chi Palace.

Zhao Yushu swallowed unconsciously. This senior sister is quite brave.

The prince was not in the Taiji Palace. Ever since the construction of the Daming Palace, emperors of successive dynasties were reluctant to return to the damp and cold Taiji Palace. Gradually, the entire ruling center was moved to the Daming Palace. Although the prince had not yet ascended the throne, he moved there from the East Palace the next day as soon as the old emperor disappeared.

So if you just go to Tai Chi Palace, it should be relatively safe, right?

“Isn’t that too risky?”

"What could be more frightening to the prince than the palace being robbed?"

On a dark and windy night, he broke into the palace to steal treasures.

Zhao Yushu and the wolf girl stood on the palace wall, sometimes standing and sometimes squatting. If the wind was stronger, and they wrapped a scarf around their necks that fluttered in the wind, they would look very cool.

"I'm not familiar with the imperial palace. Let's find the treasure house first." Zhao Yushu looked around. Although the emperor no longer lived here, it was still the orthodox imperial palace in name. Unlike the palace in Dongdu which was just for show, the palace here had all the necessary palace servants and guards. Although most of them were mortals, the majesty of the Tang Dynasty could not be lost in the slightest.

The Taiji Palace had long been a ruin in the previous life. No, not even the ruins were left. This time, he was able to see it with his own eyes and even go in for a tour. It was a very novel experience for Zhao Yushu. However, the problem was that the Taiji Palace was too big. It was more than four times larger than the imperial palaces of the Ming and Qing dynasties in the previous life. If the Prince's Eastern Palace and the Ye Ting Palace were included, it would be even bigger.

Zhao Yushu was scratching his head for a moment, not knowing where to find the treasure house.

"Come with me, I'm familiar with it." The wolf girl landed from the imperial city wall, carefully avoiding the perception range of the monks on duty, and led the way.

Fortunately, the national power of the Tang Dynasty is weakened and the royal majesty is declining. If it were in the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, the entire imperial city would be covered by cultivators of all ranks without any blind spots. No matter what level you are in, you will be caught as soon as you show your head.

Zhao Yushu was a little surprised. When had the wolf girl come to the palace? And it looked like it was more than once or twice.

Curiosity may not kill the cat, but it will definitely kill Zhao Yushu. Even in such a dangerous situation, he still couldn't help but want to ask what kind of evil fate the wolf girl had with the Chang'an Imperial City.

However, before he opened his mouth, Zhao Yushu was stunned for a moment, then grabbed the wolf girl.

"what happened?"

The two hid outside a side hall. At this time, only the eternal lamp was still on in the hall, but there was a man standing at the door of the hall.

Someone Zhao Yushu knew.

His former friend, King Li Jian of Kucha.

Li Jian was standing on the steps in a formal suit, not looking like he was getting ready to go to bed.

He is waiting.
