Chapter 739 Auspicious Day
At this time, Wu Zetian asked again: "Oh, by the way, what did you gain from inspecting the Shanjin Bureau today?"

Di Renjie pondered for a while and said: "Returning to Your Majesty, Tie Le, the head of the backyard of the Shanjin Bureau, killed four soil transporters in the bureau in order to let He Lu escape from Luoyang, and stole the waist plate and two carriages.

After the incident, Tie Le escaped from the Shanjin Bureau and disappeared. "

Wang Mang glanced at Di Renjie, but did not speak.

Wu Zetian gritted her teeth and said: "This traitor! Huaiying, he must be arrested and brought to justice, and he will be punished!"

Di Renjie bowed and said, "Yes."

Wu Zetian nodded slightly, and she waved her hand: "Okay, you all go down, Jing Yang stays."

Wang Mang bowed and answered "Yes!"

Soon, only Wang Mang's Wu Zetian was left in the hall.

Wu Zetian asked: "How is it? Did you get the golden pearl today?"

Wang Mang nodded: "Your Majesty, I have already obtained it, and I think we can start calculating it in a few days."

Wu Zetian asked, "Then when is the best date?"

Wang Mang said with a smile: "This is really a coincidence, it happens to be on the day of His Majesty's birthday."

"Oh?"

Wu Zetian raised his head.

Wang Mang said: "Your Majesty, according to my calculations, that day happens to be the day when the five elements are exchanged in a year, so the positions of the Fire Beads and the Wood Beads can be estimated roughly.

The minister is now ready to complete the affairs, and only waits for that day to come. "

Wu Zetian nodded: "That's it. Well, I'll leave this matter to you. I can rest assured that you don't need to report such specific matters to me in the future."

"Yes, thank you His Majesty for your trust, I will definitely do my best."

Wang Mang hurriedly looked grateful.

At this time, a loud voice suddenly came from outside the door: "His Royal Highness, King Liang, please see me!"

Wu Zetian glanced at Wang Mang and waved his hands: "Okay, you go down first!"

Wang Mang answered "Yes!" and turned to leave.

After Wang Mang walked out of the hall, he happened to have a face-to-face meeting with Liang Wang Wu Sansi who was walking towards him: "Liang Wang!"

"My lord!"

Wang Mang and Wu Sansi nodded with a smile on their face.

After saying hello, Wu Sansi ignored Wang Mang, turned around and walked into the hall.

Wang Mang looked at Wu Sansi's back thoughtfully, suddenly, he seemed to think of something, smiled softly, then turned and left.

……

In the quiet night without light, the strong wind howled in the deep mountains of Mang Mountain, and the owls howled and the wolves howled.

An abandoned village lies alone on top of a hill.

In the quiet night, there was the sound of horseshoes and wheels grinding the ground. A carriage came slowly and stopped at the entrance of the village.

The car door opened, and Bei Shan, wearing a black cloak, jumped out of the car and walked towards the village.

Beishan sneaked quickly on the dirt road, turned around, walked into an abandoned yard, and then disappeared.

There is a burrow under the yard, which is very spacious and can accommodate dozens of people to live at the same time.

Wulezhi and the others were hiding here. At this moment, Wulezhi was leaning on the bed, his eyes slightly closed, and his upper body was wrapped in gauze.

A Turkic warrior in a black robe walked quickly: "Boss, Beishan is here."

Wu Lezhi opened his eyes suddenly and said, "Quick, invite him in!"

The black-robed warrior walked out quickly.

After a while, Beishan walked into the cave.

Wule sat up and said eagerly, "How is the prince?"

Bei Shan let out a long sigh: "It fell into the hands of Di Renjie."

Wulezhi took a breath and said, "It's really Di Renjie...It's over, it's over!"

Beishan said bitterly: "Di Renjie's movements are too fast, unusually fast, unbelievably fast, so fast that people have no time to react. Originally, I thought my movements were fast enough, but unexpectedly I was a step too late."

Wule stood up hesitantly and said, "I'm going to save His Highness the Crown Prince!"

Beishan sneered: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has fallen into the hands of the inner guards, and is being imprisoned in the sky prison, guarded by thousands of Nanya imperial guards. Just a few of you want to go to the prison? This is hitting a stone with an egg."

Wulezhi panted heavily and sat down on the bed.

Bei Shan comforted him again: "Don't worry, I have already sent people to investigate, His Royal Highness has not said a word since he was arrested.

At present, although he has suffered some flesh and blood, his life is not hindered.As long as His Royal Highness does not speak, they will not kill him. "

Wule raised his head and said, "Really?"

Beishan nodded and said: "Of course it is true. I have already discussed with Nanshan, and the plan will proceed as usual."

Wule asked, "But what about His Royal Highness?"

Beishan said impatiently: "Why don't you understand that only when our plan succeeds and we kill Di Renjie and Jili Khan can we save His Highness the Crown Prince. Do you understand?"

Wulezhi held his breath and nodded slowly.

Beishan instructed again: "Remember, from today onwards, you will stay here, and you must not leave easily. Once the surname Di finds out your whereabouts again, the consequences will be disastrous. I will send people to deliver food and water on time."

Wule replied, "Don't worry, I will."

Beishan said: "I still have to go to Nanshan to discuss the action plan, you take care of your wounds."

Ule nodded his head.

Kitayama turned and left.

Wulezhi took a deep breath, and held the scimitar beside his hand.

……

In the palace of the Prince of Nanping County, the lanterns were hung high, and the drums and horns were beating. The imperial envoys came to declare the Prince of Nanping County to marry his daughter and get married.

The embroidered building in the backyard is where the princess Wu Yuanmin lives.

Various weapons such as swords, short spears and short sticks are hung on the four walls of the boudoir, and the floor is covered with animal skins. At first glance, it looks like a room for martial arts practitioners, but it really doesn't look like a girl's embroidery building.

There was a burst of noise outside, and the servant girl Chunhong was lying in front of the door, listening.

There was a rush of footsteps outside, followed by a knock on the door.

Chunhong asked nervously, "Who?"

The people outside hurriedly said: "I am the head of the front yard. Chunhong, the messenger is waiting in the main hall. The prince asked me to ask, is the princess finished bathing?"

Chunhong panicked for a while: "Not yet, not yet, you should reply to the prince, it should be soon."

The main pipe in the front yard: "Grandma, urge the princess, insult the imperial envoy, this will kill your head!"

Chunhong hurriedly said: "Ah, I know, I will go to remind you."

Chunhong heard the housekeeper's footsteps going downstairs, let out a long breath, and leaned against the door.

Suddenly, there was a crackling sound from the window, which seemed to be the sound of stones hitting the window lattice.

Chunhong was startled and hurried to the window, and gently opened the sash.

It was too late, but soon, the window opened with a "bang", a cold light flashed, a steel knife protruded in from the window, and was placed on Chunhong's neck, Chunhong let out a low cry.

Cheering laughter came from outside: "Coward!"

A man wearing an octagonal hat and tuanhua bunt, dressed like a martial artist on a stage, rushed into the room.

Chunhong said: "Oh, princess, you are back..."

The princess clumsily turned the knife in her hand and said with a triumphant smile: "Hey, this hero went out to fight for righteousness again tonight. People on the road saw me and their eyes were full of envy. Several people praised me and said, This guy is out of his mind...

Hey, Chunhong, what is madness? "
