Imperial City Investigative Department

Chapter 406
Wu Chen looked at the queen mother sharply and said, "Not only will I keep her, but I will also keep others. You'd better be quiet, but if you have any thoughts that you shouldn't have, I'm not here, but..."

As Wu Chen said this, he clenched his right hand on his chest. The Queen Mother suddenly felt a strange pain in her chest. She covered her chest in pain and looked at Wu Chen in fear.

"You have taken my unique secret medicine, even if I am thousands of miles away, I can still make your life worse than death."

The empress dowager's face remained terrified, her eyes widened and she asked, "Do you have to go to Shuangxi village? Who will give me the antidote when you die?"

"Would the cave in the water kill me?"

The queen mother snorted, but did not speak.

Wu Chen smiled and said, "I'm familiar with the underworld, I'll take you on a tour then."

……

Wu Chen called the guards to the courtyard, and Datou and the others followed him in.

When Wu Chen said that he wanted to clean up a room, Da Tou knew that Chen Nanzhu was going to stay, and he lowered his head in disappointment.

Wu Chen said to Xing Yun again: "I still need to trouble you to enter the palace and ask the officials for two or three women with kung fu..."

"Do you think there are only those three palace maids and eunuchs in this courtyard?" Xing Yun crossed his arms and asked impatiently.

Wu Chen waved his hand and said, "Tomorrow I will order someone to bring some clothes to Pinggu, and you can arrange the rest. It would be best not to let her meet the queen mother, if there is no other way..."

"Don't worry, I wasn't on guard before, how could I not have a long memory after being hurt by her once?" Chen Nanzhu said slowly behind Wu Chen, with a very flat tone.

Wu Chen frowned, looked back at her, hesitated and said, "I'll try my best to visit you again before I leave, if I can't make it in time... wait until I find a way from Shuangxi Village..."

"I know that no matter who is around you like me, you will be so anxious...Don't blame yourself. Being able to leave Anping County, go to Kyoto, and live in the palace for so long is nothing like before. I dare to think about it?"

Seeing the sparkle in Chen Nanzhu's eyes, Wu Chen hurriedly said, "Anyway, can you wait for me to try again?"

Chen Nanzhu smiled, tears welled up in her eyes, she lowered her head and said, "Okay! I'll wait for you!"

Wu Chen was worried, and said, "The queen mother's words cannot be trusted. If she can get rid of the soul, I will definitely find the soul-returning pill! Give me some time."

"Don't worry, I won't do stupid things, come back quickly, it's cold and windy." Chen Nanzhu raised his head and smiled.

Wu Chen felt uncomfortable, Xu Da stepped forward and said, "Let me have a word with Ping Gu."

Wu Chen nodded, and led everyone to the gate of the courtyard to wait.

Xu Da first sighed, and then said:
"When we met you in the graveyard, to be honest, both the sophomore and I thought it would be troublesome to bring you back. Brother Wu is a good person, at least better than us. Now that the sophomore is gone, he feels very uncomfortable. You are now And like this...he can't give you what you want, but other than that, he will find a way to satisfy you whatever you want. The second year of high school left in a hurry, and there was no chance to leave a few words. If there was a chance, he believed that he would definitely say it. I'm so lucky to meet Brother Wu in this life! Why don't we? You said, he has always been worried about us, but what can we do for him? "

Chen Nanzhu burst into tears.

"You are good, that is the greatest reward for him!"

Chen Nanzhu nodded heavily.

... The group of people left the temple, the big head just got into the carriage, and Wu Chen was about to lift his legs into the carriage. He saw that the big head was depressed, and wanted to comfort himself on the way back, but at this moment, the sound of horseshoes came to his ears, and he frowned. To the dark distance.

It didn't take long for one person and one rider to come galloping.

"Deputy Envoy Wu, the eldest son of Gao Er was kidnapped!"

Wu Chen's hair is about to stand on end!

He shouted: "Xing Yun! Go back to the palace and mobilize troops to guard the four city gates! Brother, go to the second brother's house and keep an eye on my sister-in-law and them! Gu You, boss, protect the big head brother!"

Then, Wu Chen flew towards the dark night.

Xing Yun was stunned, Xu Da was also stunned, he got out of the carriage and looked at the vast night and asked worriedly: "Aren't you just arresting me?"

Xu Da took a breath and said, "It seems that they knew about Brother Wu's visit to the high school student's house that day."

"Did they find out today? They found out about Wu Chen on the same day." Xing Yun said.

Gu You's eyes widened angrily and he said: "Look at it this way, they just arranged people in the palace. They don't have that many eyes and ears outside the palace. Let's go, protect the big head and enter the city!"

Xing Yun also shouted: "Beware of them luring the tiger away from the mountain! I want to see how difficult the road into the city is!"

The eldest brother held the reins in his hand and shouted: "The great lord is sitting firmly, fourth brother, take good care of the great lord!"

The fourth child was sitting next to Datou, his expression was extremely tough, and his whole body was tense, as if he was ready for a fight at any time!
The guards leading the way also straightened their waists at this time. Usually they don't have the chance to fight with real swords and guns. Today they caught up, and they couldn't help feeling excited.

A group of people hurried into the night.

……

Wu Chen ran wildly all the way, with the cold wind whistling in his ears, Wu Chen gradually calmed down, these people knew the importance of the sophomore family to him, and they would not go far to kidnap Gao Wen, and they still wanted to use Gao Wen as a hostage to force him to go. Wu Chen handed over the ink washing, and since Li Yi was arrested, Li Heng started digging the moat, and started construction only after the spring blossoms. On the surface, it will increase the defense function of the capital, but in fact it will cut off all the tunnels out of the city.

Although there is no excavation at the moment, patrols have been stepped up outside the city. If you want to lead people out of the tunnel, you must be able to avoid being discovered by the patrolling people.

Wu Chen listened to the movement around while running. Although there are four city gates, Wu Chen can only be concerned about going to the area outside the east gate, but Wu Chen can't hold back because he is fast enough to run around the periphery of the capital. It would definitely delay some time, but what Wu Chen wanted was to make sure those people didn't take Gao Wen out of the city.

It is not easy for those people to snatch Gao Wen away from Gao Er's house. They have limited manpower, so they seized Wu Chen's opportunity to go out of the city tonight, thinking that they could kill two birds with one stone. Ambush outside the city and rob the big head.

They knew that Wu Chen's hearing was amazing, and the people in ambush outside the city did not dare to get too close. They covered their mouths and noses with face scarves to block part of their breath, and only waited for Wu Chen to leave before setting off.

This is different from hiding with Gao Wen. The person taking Gao Wen cannot accurately know Wu Chen's whereabouts, so there is no way to escape in time.

Wu Chen calculated the time. Gao Wen was arrested. Even if the hidden guard guarding Gao Er's house wanted to leave the city and inform Wu Chen in time, he still needed the approval of the seal before the dark guard could leave the city. It would take some time, plus the distance from Thousand Buddha Temple Kyoto is quite a distance away, and even if the secret guards work hard, it will still take more than an hour, and this time is enough for those people to take Gawain out of the city through the tunnel.

In other words, if those people took Gawain out of the city, when Wu Chen returned, they were probably taking Gawain to a hidden point outside their city.
