I am the seventeenth prince

Chapter 140 Chapter 143
Underpass.

Zhuang Fei walked in front, and when he turned the corner of the underground passage, his eyes lingered on the restrained man, especially the right hand that lacked a little finger.

Thieves Heavenly Sect's finger is missing, unexpectedly he was folded into the hands of His Royal Highness the Seventeenth Prince, but at this time, whether he was instigated by that family or had other plans. Now he looks suspicious to everyone.

On the inclined ladder, the moon gauze fell down, and Zhuang Fei jumped out of the disguised mouth of the well.

Li Ye and the others jumped out one after another, looking around, the exit was a guarded courtyard, and the woman not far away was dressed plainly, like an ordinary woman washing clothes at night.

Zhuang Fei and the woman nodded.

"I thought it was going straight to the outside of the city, but it turned out to be a cover-up."

Li Ye saw that there was no special courtyard, and said with some surprise.

"My Diezhuang is an institution directly under His Majesty. It investigates strange cases and tricks. I often fight against strange people and strangers in the martial arts. All of them are either strange in skills or powerful in strength. Immediately after I was appointed as the envoy, I set up a series of evasion methods. .”

Zhuang Fei explained.

"Thieves Heaven Sect has one finger missing, and he calls himself the Phantom Thief. This is also a registered prisoner in Diezhuang. There are dozens of cases recorded about him alone. All of them are major cases. Now that he has been arrested, I, Diezhuang Those files can be eliminated.

I don't know how you plan to deal with him? "

He looked at the man in a flowery green robe who was restrained, and asked casually.

Li Ye looked at the missing finger that was stuffed with black cloth, and then at his hand missing the little finger, and thought it was quite appropriate.

"What if I hand it over to you for detention?"

He asked a rhetorical question.

Zhuang Fei was stunned, he didn't expect this answer.

"Please."

He gestured with his hand.

Regarding the lack of a finger, it is not convenient to talk about it on the road, and he does not believe that Li Ye will be handed over to them for detention so casually, and Diezhuang has no tradition of detaining people for a long time.

This 'imprisonment' may have other meanings.

Quietly got into the carriage that was ready and parked at the back door, Li Ye rested his chin with one hand and looked straight at Zhuang Fei.

Not long after, the carriage left the city.

The curtains of the car windows were shaking, and they hurried along the official road.

"I don't know what's wrong with me, let you look at me like this?"

Feeling Li Ye's gaze, Zhuang Fei tilted his head to look at Li Ye.

"As far as I know, you have been promoted from the rank of Shi Rong of Die Zhuang to the title of famous arrester. During this process, the Zheng family has played a big part in it. Since you took office, you have also been in love. You have had a close relationship with the Zheng family in the past. .

One thing I'm curious about is how deep is the relationship between you, the white-headed detective, and the Zheng family? "

As soon as Li Ye spoke, the missing finger that was sitting peacefully on the fur became a little excited, and the finger was shaking.

This is a fool!I can't even see such a simple temptation. I was covered in black cloth. Is it true that others are also covered in black cloth? Can't you see?

Not just because of the stupidity of missing a finger.

It is really unbelievable that Die Zhuang has missed so many times because of such a heartless person.

"My butterfly village is only loyal to His Majesty."

Zhuang Fei said in the direction of the imperial city.

Li Ye didn't want to break the casserole and ask the bottom line, so he laughed it off.

The carriage is going further and further away.

The farther you go, the narrower the road becomes.

The mountains and forests became denser, and insects and birds were singing in the deep dense forest. In the midst of the insects and birds, Li Ye felt the scrutiny of each one.

From a distance, the carriage seemed to crash into a mountain.

The surroundings became cramped, as if being squeezed by a mountain crevice.

The carriage became more and more bumpy, making it difficult to sit still.

Li Ye's gaze passed through the shaking car curtain, turned his head to look, his pupils were bright, and the saber pupils seemed to have some kind of power, which instantly made him familiar with the darkness and distinguish the surrounding environment.

They are indeed walking through the cracks in the mountains.

As he walked, this hidden mountain crevice became wider, and at the same time, there were more lit candlesticks on the stone wall. The light was not strong enough for people to see the concave and convex outlines on the stone wall.

suddenly see the light.

In the lake hall in the distance, the stars in the sky are reflected in the lake water, which is very beautiful.

"Here we are, Your Highness."

Zhuang Fei stepped out of the carriage first, grabbing the missing finger that had turned gray with his arm.

Li Ye stepped out of the carriage, and by the light of the moonlight and the wicks of the candlesticks installed around the lake, he saw the buildings built against the mountains.

Follow Zhuang Fei along the wooden corridor ahead, and come to the bright lake hall.

"Your Majesty has seen His Highness."

The envoy of Diezhuang who walked quickly from the lake hall, with a very thin body, looked like a bamboo pole from a distance, came to Li Ye to salute, behind him there were a few headhunters in soap clothes.

Li Ye waved his hand, "You don't need to be too polite."

"You all go down."

The envoy of Butterfly Village turned around and looked at the catcher behind him, and said with a wave.

Li Ye pointed out, "She stays."

The person he was pointing at was Guan Lan in the crowd, which stunned the Butterfly Village Courtyard, and he quickly realized that he didn't expect Guan Lan to take Li Ye's path.

"Then you stay!"

The envoy of Butterfly Village looked at another man in the crowd, then at Guan Lan, and couldn't help trying to figure out the meaning of Li Ye's actions.

The way to be an official, in short, is to try to figure it out.

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes.

This principle is universal in all directions.

"Please!"

Under the guidance of the envoy of Diezhuang, Li Ye sat at the top of the hall, and the envoy sat next to him.

"Your Highness, what is the purpose of your visit?"

When the court envoy was inquiring, he also glanced at the disciple of Thief Heaven Sect who was brought in. He was missing a finger. '

Li Ye didn't go around in circles either, pointing at the missing finger and saying.

"I know there is a senior in Die Zhuang who can use Huayang acupuncture. I need this senior to do me a favor. I wonder if I can let him come out to meet."

The court envoy was a little embarrassed.

"Your Highness, there are indeed people in Die Zhuang's predecessors who know Huayang acupuncture, but I can't command Senior Hu. This Senior Hu has a weird temper, and his strength is extraordinary.

Except for His Majesty's edict, or matters related to the survival of Diezhuang, I'm afraid I can't move him. "

The grand master is indeed qualified to ignore Li Ye. There is no other reason, but the strength is strong enough.

Although there are many masters in Yu Jing of Nuo Da, it is actually not enough to spread these masters evenly in the county of Yu Dynasty, and most of these people are not active on the surface.

"I don't make it difficult for you, I guess you also have a headache about Zheng Minggong's case, as an envoy, you must be sure to call him, I don't care what method you use, as long as you let him help me.

Regarding Zheng Minggong's case, I can let you know some information as appropriate, which will save you from detours. "

The courtyard envoy's eyes rolled, thinking.

"His Royal Highness, please wait a moment. If you want to invite Senior Hu, I'm afraid I have to come to the door in person."

Then he turned his head to look at Zhuang Fei and motioned to him.

"You two are kind enough to entertain Your Highness."

After speaking, he got up and left.
