With regards to the news that Xu Rouzhi had announced to the outside world, Lu Ming was puzzled. "Earlier, the Royal Concubine clearly announced that the thief was about to die from poison, why did she change her words and claim that she used an antidote to save the thief?"

Xu Rouzhi smiled mysteriously and looked at Chu Yixuan.

Chu Yixuan frowned as he looked at Xu Rouzhi, "Princess, you mean to say that you want to lure the thief's companion over to rescue?"

Xu Rouzhi praised: "Prince is so smart! If this fellow's companions took him seriously, they would definitely think of ways to save him once they found out that he was still alive. However, if this fellow's weight was insufficient, in order to prevent him from revealing any important information, there might be people who would come to kill him. Your highness, guess, which kind of person will it be? "

Chu Yixuan was silent for a moment. "Since the wangfei has a plan, then this king shall wait for the results."

Mn, mn, Xu Rouzhi also hoped that those people would not disappoint her tonight!

On this night, the sound of wailing ghosts and howling wolves constantly came from the Jinxiu House.

Sang Woruo's expression was anxious, her face was pale white: "That bitch must have put snakes to bite him, right?"

Lan Xin said softly, "Don't worry Madam, everything is ready!"

Xu Rouzhi clenched her fists tightly. Xu Rouzhi, Big Sister Su and I underestimated you. We will definitely make you die a graveless death when the time comes!

It was quiet in the middle of the night, and the Jinxiu House was already in silence.

In the room, the stove was burning brightly, and Chu Yixuan was leaning on the table, looking exhausted. Lu Ming stood guard beside him, wanting to advise him to rest first. Since it was inconvenient to open his mouth, normally by this time, the Duke would go to bed to rest.

Xu Rouzhi was already in bed, sweetly resting her head on her hands, looking like she was already asleep.

Bi Su served as a servant in front of the bed, looking at Chu Yixuan with some unease. If she didn't hold back, then let the king wait here, what if the king caused a disaster or something like that and the emperor blamed him?

Bi Su gently moved to the table and wanted to ask Chu Yixuan to rest on the bed, but Xu Rouzhi suddenly spoke out, her voice was low, "Turn off the light!"

Chu Yixuan glanced at Xu Rouzhi, and thought that she was asleep. He smiled and pressed his hands together, gesturing for Lu Ming to listen to his Royal Concubine.

Aside from the lanterns in the corridor, the lights in the rooms of the Jinxiu House slowly extinguished.

Time slowly slipped away. In the quiet Jinxiu House, it could be said that everything was quiet and without a sound.

Three chimes had already sounded. A sound finally reached his ears.

A smile quietly rose from the corner of Xu Rouzhi's lips.

Although the sound was extremely soft, she could still hear it! She believed that Chu Yixuan and Lu Ming should have also heard the voice, the kind of sound of one stepping on air and flying over walls!

Bi Su and Lu Ming moved their bodies at almost the same time, respectively hiding in the dark corner behind the door, and staring at the direction of the east wing with sharp eyes.

That so called thief was imprisoned in the east wing of Jinxiu House, facing Xu Rouzhi's room by forty-five degrees.

Several black shadows quietly landed outside the east wing and quickly spread out, taking up different positions and forming a defensive line.

The papered window was gently pushed open. In the east wing, Han Ze was tied to a pillar, dressed in all black. His head was lowered without strength, and it was unknown whether he was awake or asleep.

"Big brother!"

A soft voice travelled to the east wing and into Han Ze's ears. However, Han Ze did not reply him.

With a penetrating gaze, he scanned the east wing. After confirming that there was no one around, the black clothed man immediately pushed open the window and entered the room. He quickly drew his sword and spread it out to every corner. After confirming that there was no ambush, only then did someone go to Han Ze's side to untie the ropes.

"Second brother, something is wrong!" "Big brother is being held here. Why are there no guards here?"

"You mean, an empty fort strategy?"

"That's a possibility. Let's hurry up and bring Big Bro away!"

"Alright!"

The two of them quickly left the house and checked their surroundings. Seeing that there were no movements, they immediately waved towards the house.

The black clothed man in the room immediately supported the unconscious Han Ze and rushed out.

The lights in the Jinxiu House suddenly lit up at the same time.

All the black-clothed people stopped in their tracks in shock!

Xu Rouzhi's room door suddenly opened. Chu Yixuan and his figure slowly walked out of the room.

Behind them, Lu Ming and Bi Su had not even taken a step away from each other.

"Sure enough, someone is here to save us!" "It seems like this person is very important to his companions." A satisfied smile appeared on Xu Rouzhi's face as her eyes turned to Chu Yixuan, "Your highness, do you want to know who the mastermind is?"

Chu Yixuan frowned: "Lu Ming."

Lu Ming immediately took a step forward: "Who are you people? Quickly put down your comrades! "

The black clothed man looked at each other gloomily. The two black clothed men who were supporting Han Ze suddenly stopped, and flew towards the roof!

"You want to escape?" Lu Ming let out a cold "hmph", and immediately flew up, thrusting the sword in his hand straight towards Han Ze's back!

The two men in black who were supporting Han Ze turned around and swung their swords. A cold light flashed and flew towards Lu Ming's chest!

Lu Ming tilted his head and dodged, and quickly pounced towards the three flying in the air!

The black-clothed men in front of the east wing were about to lend a hand, but countless guards from the manor had already rushed out from all over the place and stopped them.

Bladelight and sword images, instantly illuminated the skies above the Jinxiu House!

Chu Yixuan quietly looked in the direction of Lu Ming, he chased Lu Ming up to the rooftop, and with a casual pull from his waist, a flexible sword suddenly appeared in his hand, suddenly slashing towards a black-clothed man who was blocking his way!

The sudden sword shine was impossible to guard against. Accompanied by a miserable scream, blood splattered out from the chest of the man in black!

The black figure slowly fell to the ground!

His companion was killed just like that! The other man in black who was supporting Han Ze had his eyes bulged out, he placed Han Ze on the roof and pulled out his sword, bellowing as he slashed at Lu Ming!

Lu Ming was naturally not afraid. With a flash of cold light, his figure had already leapt high into the air, his leg kicking towards the black clothed man who was rushing towards him. That person dodged, and once again thrusted his sword towards Lu Ming!

Lu Ming took the chance and rolled on the roof, dodging the man's sharp sword, and slashed towards his leg!

The martial arts of this man in black was clearly much stronger than the man who had just fallen!

Lu Ming raised his sword and rushed forward, the man responded with all of his strength, but was unable to determine who was the better one.

"Bi Su." Xu Rouzhi who was at the door watching the battle called out to him.

Bi Su replied as she flew into the air, her petite body flying as she floated up with the yellow cloth belt in her hands, "Huala!"

Facing the wind, a green figure flashed under the moonlight, and the yellow cloth belt fluttered out, accurately wrapping itself around Han Ze's ankle!

With a tug of his wrist, Han Ze's figure quickly descended from the roof!

Outside the east wing, the men in black battling with the guards of the palace were all shocked!

"Second Brother, Big Brother has been captured again!"

On the rooftop, the one called second brother had gradually been suppressed by Lu Ming.

The sweat on his forehead was reflected in the sword light. The black clothed man shouted anxiously, "Quickly save Big Brother!"

"All of you, surrender!"

In the darkness of the night, Xu Rouzhi's calm and tranquil voice was exceptionally clear. A whistle once again resounded through the night sky of the entire Prince Qi Palace.

Numerous small snakes slithered out from the ground outside the east wing. Their bright colors blinded everyone's eyes!

He tried to dodge the little snake's attack and cut off its head, but the little snakes were all nimble and agile. Not only did they avoid the incoming swords and sabers, they were even pursuing the target accurately.

The black clothed man could not take care of himself, all of them were in a mess, how could he have the time to save Han Ze?

Han Ze once again fell into Bi Su's hands.

Han Ze who had just woken up, looked at the chaotic scene in front of him and sighed.

"How is it?" Xu Rouzhi smiled, "In order to avoid any more casualties, tell them to stop?"

Han Ze looked at the motionless body on the ground, tears of anger and pain filled his eyes: "Xu Rouzhi, you slut!"

Bi Su held onto Han Ze's mingmen. "How dare you insult my wife!"

Xu Rouzhi looked at the guards in the courtyard, "Arrest all of them and let the Duke interrogate them!"

"Leave it to This King to interrogate?" Chu Yixuan raised his eyebrows slightly. "These are all the spoils of the princess' spoils of war."

Xu Rouzhi smiled sweetly: "However, there are some secrets that are related to the reputation of the Prince Qi Palace. I will not interfere."

Chu Yixuan stared into Xu Rouzhi's bright and beautiful eyes, and his brows slightly knitted.

In the Huaxiu House, Sang Woruo paced back and forth urgently, both her hands tightly clenched into a fist. The sounds of battle from the Jinxiu House had already reached her ears. Had she managed to save the person?

This couldn't help but make her feel anxious and fearful!

She only hoped that the rescue plan would succeed. She couldn't afford to lose both her husband and her soldiers!

The sounds of fighting slowly died down.

The Jinxiu House once again returned to tranquility.

The servant girl who was sent out to closely monitor the movement of the Jinxiu House hurriedly returned. The anxious expression on the servant girl's face made Sang Woruo's heart, which was hanging in his throat, slowly sink.

"How is it?" Sang Woruo's voice trembled slightly.

Lan Xin carefully held onto Sang Woruo, afraid that she would fall if she couldn't take the blow.

The news that the servant brought back, word for word, was like a clap of thunder that exploded in Sang Woruo's heart.

"Princess, Jinxiu House has captured another two black-clothed men. One of the black-clothed men resisted the sword attack and died. That person was not successfully saved. "

"What?" Sang Woruo didn't dare to believe her ears. At this moment, she could hear her own voice, which seemed to come from a faraway place rather than her own mouth, "How could this be … "How could it be …"

Even though victory was in sight, he still failed?

Jinxiu House, Xu Rouzhi...

Why was that Xu Rouzhi so hard to deal with?

Looking at Sang Woruo who was slowly falling on Lan Xin's shoulder, the servant girl was stunned!

Lan Xin said anxiously: "Hurry up and help me bring Madam back to her bed!"

Outside the door, a clear and melodious voice suddenly sounded, "What happened to Mrs. Sang?"
