The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

It's okay. Zhao Chen shook his head. It was just a scratch on his ear, so it wasn't a big problem.

Why did you run out? Zhao Chen leaned against the wall and looked at Li Ruoshuang sideways.

Li Ruoshuang also leaned against the wall and sat down next to Zhao Chen.

You didn't come back all night last night, and in the middle of the night there were soldiers running around in disorder on the streets.

I'm very worried, and I thought I could come out to look for you during the night.

As a result, we never had the chance to enter the Governor's Mansion. On the contrary, after dawn, not a single Qixian citizen was seen on the street.

Without the cover of the night, I was directly exposed to their gaze.

I really gave up just now, but in my heart, I can't let you and Ping An go. Li Ruoshuang said, holding Zhao Chen tightly with her right hand.

It seemed as if he was afraid that he would never see Zhao Chen again.

After rubbing Li Ruoshuang's head, Zhao Chen comforted him with a smile: It's okay, everything is safe now.

After saying that, Zhao Chen stood up against the wall.

Safe, not exactly safe these days.

They had to find an opportunity as soon as possible and return to the inn.

And the people in the inn can't find anything.

Otherwise, the crisis will only become more serious.

Not hearing Zhao Chen's blaming words, Li Ruoshuang felt much relieved.

What do we do now?

If we go back now, we will definitely be discovered by the people at the inn. Li Ruoshuang and Zhao Chen asked.

The innkeeper is someone arranged by the Qizhou Dudufu.

If they went to the inn at this time, they would have confirmed their identity as the murderer.

This is definitely not a good idea.

But the inn is a place that I definitely want to go back to. Ping An and Princess Qinghe are still there.

They have to be picked up.

They will be looking for this soon. To our left is an empty street, which is not suitable for us to escape.

right

There are continuous residential buildings on the side. Although there are soldiers chasing us here, we can still take the risk.

As a last resort, we can enter residential buildings, knock out the people in the room, and take shelter temporarily. Zhao Chen and Li Ruoshuang talked about their plan.

As for knocking people unconscious, there is nothing that can be done.

Under this situation, Zhao Chen had no way to judge whether the people here would inform the soldiers of Zhe Chong Mansion.

Li Ruoshuang nodded, this was the only way at the moment.

They had to stay up until night, otherwise they wouldn't be able to go back to the inn.

Let's go. Li Ruoshuang and Zhao Chen said.

Let's go. Zhao Chen nodded.

…

I didn't find those two guys. Just as the two left, a group of soldiers from Zhe Chong Mansion rushed over.

But they failed and found nothing.

Only half of the rope was seen discarded on the ground.

The female assassin has been chased by us for a long time. She must be exhausted and can't run far.

The person who appeared later must be the murderer of Mr. Luneng.

Seal this entire area and don't let anyone escape.

I will report this news to Lu Changshi and ask him to send people to search again. A soldier leader said to others.

Yes! Everyone responded.

Everyone stood three steps to one post and five steps to one sentry, surrounding the entire area.

Lu Yifa was irritable in the Dudu Mansion.

He just learned that the two soldiers who were previously assigned to guard the North House were knocked unconscious again.

One of them even had his clothes taken off.

How could Lu Yifa not know that when they went there before,

The murderer of his son was still hiding in the room of the North House.

It's just that they didn't find it.

After they left, the murderer knocked out two soldiers again, put on soldiers' clothes, and followed everyone out of the Qizhou Governor's Mansion openly.

Lu Yifa felt like a clown, being played by the murderer.

Sir, we have discovered something. The soldier leader rushed in and shouted to Lu Yifa.

Lu Yifa was burning paper money for his son. When he heard the soldier's voice, he immediately turned around.

Where? Lu Yifa said sharply.

Reporting to your lord, we found a female assassin on the road early this morning. She should be the murderer's coordinator outside.

So we chased the female assassin all the way, and when we were about to capture her, a man wearing our clothes suddenly appeared and rescued the female assassin.

Now their position is surrounded by our people.

But we don't have enough manpower. We need Sir Chang Shi to dispatch search manpower. The soldier leader said to Lu Yifa.

As soon as he heard that a man dressed as a soldier had rescued the female assassin, Lu Yifa immediately understood that his previous guess was correct.

So now is the time for him to get someone.

Neng'er, don't worry, dad will take people to arrest your murderer right now.

Father will cut off his head in front of your spirit and offer it as a memorial to you. Lu Yifa lit three sticks of incense and placed them firmly in front of your spirit.

Then he turned around and said to everyone around him: Assemble all the soldiers and horses, and go with me to catch the murderer.

The group of people left the Governor's Mansion in a mighty manner and ran towards the area where they were surrounded.

…

Zhao Chen, it seems we have no way out. In a room, Zhao Chen and Li Ruoshuang were hiding here.

Beside them were common people who had been knocked unconscious.

There was no way, Zhao Chen didn't want to put himself and Li Ruoshuang in danger because of others.

Li Ruoshuang looked out through the gap in the room and saw soldiers surrounding them everywhere.

If they want to leave, they will be discovered.

At that time, it will be another scene of you chasing me.

In broad daylight, there were so many soldiers in Zhechong Mansion that they had no place to hide.

Take a rest first. They won't move for the time being. Let's find something to fill our stomachs. Zhao Chen and Li Ruoshuang said.

Then he got up and searched the room.

Only a few baked potatoes were found. Zhao Chen handed two to Li Ruoshuang and looked at the warm water in the teapot.

Eat something first. Zhao Chen and Li Ruoshuang said.

Li Ruoshu took the baked potatoes and ate them quietly.

Zhao Chen, if I don't rush out first, they will definitely chase me. You can find an opportunity to run out.

We can't all stay here and wait for death. Li Ruoshuang was eating baked potatoes and suddenly told Zhao Chen such a solution.

Zhao Chen shook his head, of course he understood what Li Ruoshuang was thinking.

But letting Li Ruoshuang go out to attract attention would be a no-return move.

Impossible, just stay here quietly, I have a way. Zhao Chen patted Li Ruoshuang's hand and said with a smile.

But……

It's nothing, just be obedient. Zhao Chen interrupted Li Ruoshuang and handed her a cup of warm tea.

Li Ruoshuang took the tea cup and took a slow sip.

But in his heart, he secretly lamented his original ambition and wanted to go to the front line to lead troops in the war.

In fact, I only have skills, but no brains.

If Zhao Chen hadn't been helping her, how could she have made it this far?

If he really had to go to the battlefield alone, he would probably die soon.
