Chapter twenty-four, the past

The spring breeze in February is thrilling, and the sun is full of plants and trees. There is a large grass outside Zhongzhou City, a piece of green, swaying in the wind under the spring breeze, and the green waves are wave after wave, which is very beautiful. In the afterglow of the sunset, this beautiful scenery is really beautiful.

The woman in yellow was sitting on the citrus wood. In the carriage, two seriously injured patients were lying, so the woman and the old man sat on the citrus wood where the groom usually sat on the citrus wood.

The woman looked at the scenery and said, "It is said that the grasslands in Zhongzhou City are beautiful. Although I have been here several times, I have not encountered the right season. This time I came just right, and it is really beautiful."

When the old man heard this, he replied, "Miss, should we go directly to the palace? I'm afraid it's a bit inconvenient to bring these two people."

The woman said, "It's okay, the prince is not a pedantic person, not to mention that the old man and the prince are old acquaintances. One of the two must be the grandson of Mr. Mu. The Mu family is just so single, and it's more important than anything else, so the prince will help him in terms of emotion and reason."

The old man said "Okay".

So he walked into the city with a carriage. Zhongzhou City was very big. Although it was not as good as Xianyang, it was one of the larger cities today. Zhongzhou was located in the middle section of the empire, connecting the north and south, and was also the largest barrier behind the Beiguan Frontier and before Xianyang. Not only were the 200,000 elite soldiers of Zhongzhou Palace stationed, but the King of Zhongzhou himself was also in charge.

Therefore, no matter the public security is particularly good, the contact points of merchants and major business banks and sects are all in Zhongzhou City. In addition, the Zhongzhou Prince's Mansion collects much less money for major business banks than in other places, so everyone is happy to come here to do business. In the long run, it will create the prosperity of Zhongzhou City.

Looking at the bustling street market in Zhongzhou City, the woman sighed that the prosperity of Zhongzhou today may be slightly different from that of Xianyang, Qindu. The most important thing is that the atmosphere in Zhongzhou City is very relaxed and not as depressing as Xianyang.

The carriage passed through several streets and stopped at the gate of the Zhongzhou Prince's Mansion. The Zhongzhou Prince's Mansion was very large in size and occupied a very wide area. At the door were two teams of soldiers wearing black armor. These soldiers were calm and had a faint sense of iron blood. It can be seen that they were all warriors.

Seeing a carriage parked at the door, a general wearing deep cold armor came to the carriage. The general approached and said, "It turns out that the two are here. The prince has been waiting for a long time. Please follow me." The general's tone was neither humble nor deceitful.

The woman said, "General Li, there are two patients in my car. Please help me with the placement."

Upon hearing this, the general said, "Okay, let's arrange this."

The general named Li immediately recruited several soldiers and carried the seriously injured two into the royal palace.

The woman and the old man walked into the inner courtyard of the palace. As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the hall, a hearty laughter came from inside.

The woman stepped into the door and looked at the man sitting in the main case and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time. I wonder if the prince is going to be fine lately?"

The man was wearing a golden robe, with silver silk like snow, a rosy complexion, a golden crown, a lying eyebrows like a lying silkworm, a pair of eyes, a starry eyes as deep as the sea, and a straight mouth and nose. Sitting there, an extraordinary temperament came out naturally.

The man was clearly middle-aged, but his whole body still exuded a strong vitality. He sat there, as steady as a mountain, and his whole temperament was unforgettable. This person was Han Bai, the king of Zhongzhou.

Han Bai looked at the woman and said, "Please sit down, two, I'm fine, but I've been a little too good recently and a little bored. The girl from my house is not at home. It's rare that you come here this time, you have to stay for a few more days. After all, I still want to find you to discuss swordsmanship with Mr. Ouyang."

Hearing this, the old man hurriedly said, "The prince is praised, the little brother can't afford to argue with the prince. This is really a shame."

Han Bai said, "Mr. Ouyang, don't be humble in front of me. Others don't know your ability. Don't you know? If you and the Yue Girl were not helping you at the border, I wouldn't think I would be the one I am today."

The old man said, "That's just the prince's own luck. The prince's luck is destined to turn danger into safety. I just happened to pass by and meet him. The prince is not as worried. However, after my lady received the prince's guidance, her cultivation has made great progress. I should thank the prince for it."

This is the woman who said, "I'm asking you two to be so sour. You two can't be so familiar. You have to greet each other every time you meet. You can't stand it. What's the matter with the prince this time? Tell me!"

Han Bai laughed loudly after hearing this, and said after a moment, "I really have something to do with you this time. You know that Wang Junwu is in there and has almost no time to leave Zhongzhou City. But after a while, it will be the Star Competition of the Empire. I am one of the guests this year, but I really can't walk away, so I plan to ask you to help me go and be this guest because the others are not worth enough!"

"You know I never go to Xianyang, so I'm sorry to obey this matter."

Han Bai continued, "The things you asked me to investigate are already a little clear about, but there are not many clues in the past. If you want to figure it out, you must go to Xianyang. In fact, this is the reason why I asked you to go, because it is said that a key person is in Xianyang. But I haven't thoroughly found out who this person is yet, but it is certain that this matter is indispensable to Zhao Gao, the old thing."

"But don't go to trouble Zhao Gao now, others don't know, but I know that this old thing was already in the sky before that incident, otherwise he wouldn't dare to stand so blatantly. After all, the old prince had already expressed his opinion before his team. In the end, the prince and his subordinates all died in the inner palace."

"Although there have always been two mysterious worshipers in the palace, the two worshipers alone are definitely not enough with the old prince's methods. Besides, there are five pioneers there. But later, the old prince and the fifth pioneer died in battle there. This is very strange. Later, I went to Xianyang secretly and found that the old prince's death was the same as your parents, so I was thinking, maybe the old prince was poisoned before."

"However, today I can't figure it out. Who can poison the old prince? That day, except for the prince, there were only five vanguards left. But all the five vanguards were killed in battle. The people who were drunk must not be among them. After inquiring from many sources, I finally learned about it. The prince's coachman was still alive and is now in the Right Prime Minister's Mansion. So, as long as you find this person, you can find out where the poison came from. The truth you want to know should be almost the same."

"But you must not take action now, because those old guys are better than you. Qingshan Sword Sect is now fighting fiercely with the temple, so if there is a conflict, they will definitely take credit for you. After all, Qingshan Sword Sect's sword is heavy enough for the whole world and sharp enough."

After hearing this, the woman pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll go and have a trip. As long as it's not that Old Man Rao came out, no one in Uncle Ouyang and I should be able to stop us from running for life. Then when will we set off?"

Han Bai smiled and said, "It's not so panicked. You can wait a few days to leave. By the way, my girl will be back after a while.

I asked her to follow you and learn your skills in playing the piano."

The woman said, "Ms. Han is talented and has no one can compare to her cultivation. I can only barely show off my skills."

After the woman finished speaking, she turned around and walked out, and said while walking, "I brought you two guests, I hope you don't mind, after all, there are many empty rooms in your palace."

After the words finished, the figures of the woman and the old man had disappeared from the living room. Han Bai took the teacup and drank it alone, and then smiled helplessly...
