Chapter 120

Lan Jue and Feng Tai got off the carriage together.

In the dark wilderness, there are clusters of fire lights dotted in the dark night in the distance, like a pile of red cotton piles blown by the wind.

This is where the assassins pretending to be Yun Taifu's family appeared. The guards reported that the place where King Dai was lost was a few miles away, and he could only ride horses or walk through the wilderness from here.

All the assassins pretending to be the family of the Taifu Mansion were killed. The guards wanted to leave a living, but the assassins committed suicide immediately as soon as they were taken. His Highness has not been found. No one has come to the capital yet.

Feng Tai said: "Apart from this, are there other casualties? Why would the prince of Minister Lan disappear together?"

The guard bowed and said, "Bei Zhi was about to report that the disappearance of Lord Lan's son was related to Your Highness. The few people in Bei Zhi were fighting with the assassin at the time, and several colleagues escorted Your Highness away. Lord Lan's son should have been with Lord Lan's family at first. Lord Bai Cang knew more about what happened later."

Feng Tai nodded slightly and immediately sent Bai Cang and a guard to come over.

Bai Cang looked at Lan Jue and saluted. Feng Tai narrowed his eyes and looked at him: "When Master Lan disappeared, were you present?"

Bai Cang bowed and replied, "When he returned to the question of Lord Feng, his subordinates did not understand martial arts, and he was afraid that they would become a burden. The guards did not follow him when he left, but only walked with a few guards behind the hall, and happened to be with Lord Lan's son and servants."

Lan Jue half-hides in Feng Tai's shadow, looking at Bai Cang silently. Bai Cang's hair was messy and his clothes were covered with mud and grass, describing it as if he was very embarrassed.

"When the Xiaguan arrived at a forest, he suddenly saw two horses riding by the guards who were escorting His Highness away..."

The horse is not suffocated, and there is no one above, so you have to run towards this side.

"When the lower officials know that there must be any changes, they will check in the direction where the horse came."

Feng Tai said: "Mr. Lan's son and servant are with you?"

Bai Cang paused for a moment, and then said, "The horses that were fast-footed in Lanfu were all put on the car, and the driving target was too big, so Xiaguan asked the young master to join the horse with Xiaguan first, and told a place near Lord Lan's family to meet there."

Feng Tai nodded again and said nothing more. Bai Cang continued, "The lower official chased after that place, but he saw His Highness standing alone in the grass."

When King Dai saw them, he immediately shouted to protect him. Bai Cang and others stepped forward, but saw several other guards lying in the grass. Before he could be surprised, a stream of white smoke suddenly appeared in front of him, and then he smelled a scent and knew nothing...

Feng Tai said coldly: "Why are you so careless? If you don't check whether there is any mechanism, then you will come forward?"

Bai Cang lowered his head: "What lord taught me is that even though His Highness called the assassin not here, the lower officials should not come forward rashly."

Feng Tai said: "Since Lord Lan's son is with you, what happened at that time?"

Bai Cang said, "The prince did not let the young master and the prince dismount together. After that, he woke up and his highness and the young master disappeared."

Feng Tai asked the guard who escorted King Dai again, and the details mentioned by the guard were consistent with the reposts of the person who went to the county government to report the news.

Feng Tai asked: "Why didn't you pay attention to your surroundings at that time?"

The guard bowed: "I deserve to die because I have never noticed that someone is approaching. The smoke suddenly rises and becomes unconscious."

Feng Tai said: "Oh, what did you see before you fell down?"

The guard rested: "I returned to the question of the master. Before Bei Zhi fell, I saw no other people. The few people who were with Bei Zhi had never seen or heard anything."

Bai Cang said: "The same is true for the Xiaguan and others."

Feng Tai pondered for a moment, turned to Lan Jue and said, "Mr. Lan, can you speak with one step?"

Lan Jue and Feng Tai walked to the open space on the side, and Feng Tai stepped back and forth: "Has Lord Lan ever discovered that there was something abnormal on the way to King Dai?"

Lan Jue looked at Feng Tai's blurry face against the lights in the distance. Just as he listened to the words of Bai Cang and the guards, some doubts arose in his chaotic heart.

Hui'er was lost, and King Dai was lost, but two groups of guards were all fainted.

At this time, he was far away from the lights and when Feng Tai asked, his heart and consciousness gradually became as clear as the stars above his head.

"Yes. Your Highness is very interested in the surroundings and maps of the road. When you meet Your Highness, King Huai, it will be even more abundant. The headquarters dare not make too big and disrespectful imagination."

Feng Tai was silent for a moment and said, "Thank you."

Lan Jue raised his sleeve and said sincerely: "It's Lan that I want to thank Lord Feng."

Feng Tai said lightly: "It is our duty to search for the missing persons, so Lord Lan doesn't have to be polite." He turned around and checked the corpses of the assassins.

Lan Jue returned to the lights and greeted Bai Cang.

"Mr. Bai, thank you."

Bai Cang was stunned and immediately bowed: "Sir, kill the lower official. This is what the lower official should do."

Lan Jue said in a gentle voice: "It is not convenient to say more at this time. When your Highness comes back safely, our department will thank you again."

Bai Cang bowed repeatedly and whispered that he didn't dare. Lan Jue looked at his slightly messy head.

He treated Bai Cang with kindness before, which was a favor, but at the critical moment, Bai Cang took the guards to protect Lan Hui and left, which was equivalent to saving Lan Hui's life.

However, after saving Lan Hui, he put Lan Hui on his own right and sent the servants away. These behaviors were probably because of a first-class plan.

After all, there were two children on the scene, and the assassin may not recognize King Dai. Lan Hui's clothes were better than King Dai.

Lan Jue could probably draw a conclusion when Bai Cang answered Feng Tai's question and his expression just now.

However, a burnout surged in his heart, and he was too lazy to think too much.

Over the years, these people and these things have been almost the same.

At this time, the wilderness and sky were just like a chaotic and blurred outline. He himself was one of them.

At this moment, he just wanted Lan Hui to be safe and sound.

In the distance, everyone was comforting Eunuch Bian who was crying and trying to commit suicide. Lan Jue walked over slowly. When Eunuch Bian saw him, he immediately rushed over.

The torches in the hands of the guards were beating, and it was almost dawn.

As dawn broke out, Yao Qi rushed to the county government with several constables.

Before dawn, the constable came to pass the message. Lord Wang, the Minister of Justice, ordered him and his younger brother Yao Lu to go to the county government quickly.

Yao Qi and his younger brother arrived at the lobby nervously. They saw the left and right yamen runners standing in Sen Yan. The Minister Wang sat upright in the hall. Without waiting for the two of them to greet him, he pointed to the person who was kneeling down in the hall and said, "The murderer who killed your brother's father has been obtained by the headquarters. Come and recognize him, but he looks familiar?"

The constable wearing the Ministry of Justice's uniform pulled up the man's face. Yao Qi looked closely and was shocked. Yao Lu even lost his voice and changed color.
