Daqing: Reborn Prince, intercepting Si Lili at the beginning

"Also, immediately dispatch everyone to search the entire city in all suspicious locations!"

"I obey my orders!"

"Wait..." Shen Zhong suddenly thought of something and asked in a serious tone, "You just said that the man in black attacked on Dongming Street?"

"Yes!"

Shen Zhong pondered and said, "If I remember correctly, Qiankun Bookstore is in East City, and Dongming Street is the only way to get to East City, right?"

"Such an adult!"

"That means the man in black had planned this all along and was waiting there... And that maid and the cavalryman who escaped from the mission that day..."

Shen Zhong's eyes suddenly widened, and then he immediately ordered: "Give orders immediately and send everyone to search the entire city.

Then those who stay at the government office, follow me to the Royal Courtyard!"

"Yes!"

......

At the same time, at the gate of the Royal Villa.

Someone spent money to jump the queue and challenge.

Many people looked at this person with strange eyes.

At a time like this, anyone who can come and participate in the competition is already very brave.

But this was the first time they had seen someone pay to cut in line for a fight.

Is this overconfidence or a rush to death?

Deng Ziyue raised his head (bfbd), glanced casually, and said, "Sign and seal!"

The man immediately lowered his head and wrote a name.

Deng Ziyue took a look and immediately sang loudly.

"The 49th challenger—Li Buxian!"

Ok?

After Deng Ziyue finished reading the name, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

This name looks familiar!

However, at this time "Li Buxian" had already walked in.

No nonsense, fight Zhen Ping directly.

Li Buxian locked Zhen Ping's arm with one move, and then whispered, "Zhen Ping, it's me!"

"Your Highness???"

"Well, don't make a sound, just give me a slap, and then have someone carry me away for treatment!"

Zhen Ping understood immediately, broke free from Li Chengyuan's restraints, and then slapped out with a palm.

Li Chengyuan flew out and started to spurt blood in mid-air.

After landing, he fainted.

Zhen Ping glanced at Li Chengyuan and said calmly, "Carry the man down, wake him up, and send him out again!"

"Yes!"

Soldiers came over immediately and carried away Li Chengyuan, who was pretending to be "Li Buxian"!

Then, Zhen Ping beat two more challengers.

At this moment, dozens of Jinyiwei suddenly ran over and surrounded the royal villa.

The leader, Shen Zhong, rushed in with a gloomy face.

Seeing this, Zhen Ping immediately stepped forward.

"Master Shen, what do you mean?"

Shen Zhong looked at Zhen Ping and said in a deep voice, "There's a thief in Shangjing City. He's extremely skilled in martial arts. I'm worried the delegation is in danger, so I've come to investigate!"

Zhen Ping said calmly, "Master Shen, you are worrying too much. The delegation is all well. You don't need to worry about it!"

"How dare you!" Shen Zhong glared at Zhen Ping and shouted, "I am the Jinyiwei Zhenfushi Envoy, a first-rank official. Who are you to dare to stop me?

I wish to see His Royal Highness the Prince of Tang. Why don't you go and inform him?"

"You..." Zhen Ping was scolded innocently and glared at each other angrily.

But Shen Zhong showed no sign of weakness and even wanted to take action at any time.

Seeing this, Zhen Ping forced himself to suppress his anger.

It’s not that he was afraid, but he didn’t want to cause trouble for Li Chengyuan.

"Wait here, I'll go in and report!"

"No need!" Shen Zhong said coldly, "The thieves are very strong. Perhaps His Royal Highness the Tang Prince is in danger. I will go in with you!"

As he spoke, he ignored Zhen Ping's attempt to stop him and led his men directly into the backyard!

Shen Zhong's reckless charge instantly alarmed everyone in the delegation.

All the ministers in the delegation who heard the noise ran out.

Seeing Shen Zhong leading the Jinyiwei to charge around in the delegation, he couldn't help but shout angrily.

"Shen Zhong, what are you guys from Northern Qi going to do?"

"The Imperial Guards are rampaging through the diplomatic mission's headquarters, completely out of control!"

"Do you, Northern Qi, still understand etiquette? Are you, Northern Qi, trying to provoke conflict between the two countries?"

Ministers who can serve as envoys are all tough-tempered and courageous.

They are not afraid of the Northern Qi Jinyiwei.

What's more, they have the Third Prince, so they dare to point at Shen Zhong's nose and curse!

Shen Zhong didn't care at all about the accusations from the Qing Kingdom officials.

This time he came here just for Li Chengyuan.

He believed that his sister's kidnapping this time was definitely related to Li Chengyuan!

There is no such coincidence in this world!

He was also certain that some members of the Northern Qi delegation were not in the villa, and perhaps even Li Chengyuan himself was not there.

Otherwise, no one except Li Chengyuan could plan such a big thing.

So Shen Zhong came here urgently. As long as the delegation was not complete, he could take the opportunity to search the delegation.

As for the consequences, Shen Zhong considered them clearly.

As long as he did not disrupt the peace talks between the two countries, he could handle this small matter with his identity as the Jinyiwei Pacification Envoy.

So Shen Zhong went to the backyard, ignored everyone, and shouted directly to the main hall: "Jinyiwei Zhenfu Envoy Shen Zhong, requesting to see His Royal Highness the Prince of Nanqing Tang!"

Shen Zhong felt that no one would respond to his call.

However, a moment later, the main hall door suddenly opened.

Then Shen Zhong was shocked to see Li Chengyuan walking out in disheveled clothes, looking like he had just woken up.

There were two women beside him, who were the maids brought by Li Chengyuan. One of them was called Qingniao and the other was called Gong Yu.

When he saw Li Chengyuan, Shen Zhong's heart sank.

However, before he could think about it, he heard Li Chengyuan questioning in confusion: "Sir Shen, what are you doing? Is your emperor planning to massacre our Qing Kingdom delegation?"

"I dare not!" Shen Zhong quickly bowed his head and confessed his guilt. "Your Highness, please forgive me. This is what happened. A thief with great martial arts skills suddenly appeared in Shangjing City. I am worried about your safety. Please gather all the members of the delegation to see if anyone has been killed."

Li Chengyuan frowned when he heard this, and no one knew what he was thinking.

After a moment, he said, "Deng Ziyue, gather all the members of the delegation!"

"Yes!" Deng Ziyue responded and immediately ran out to call for help.

A quarter of an hour later, hundreds of people from the Nanqing delegation, including the palace guards, the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry, and the delegation guards, all gathered in the square in front of the palace.

Even Nangong came out!

Li Chengyuan pointed at the delegation and said to Shen Zhong, "Master Shen, take a look. Are we short of people?"

Shen Zhong winked at the subordinate next to him.

The subordinate immediately began to check the person.

After a while, the subordinate replied in a low voice.

"Sir, all the members of the delegation are here, not one is missing!"

Shen Zhong asked in a low voice.

"Is the cavalryman who left the mission that day here?"

"Yes, sir, we have confirmed that it was indeed him who left the mission that day!"

Shen Zhong's heart skipped a beat; he knew he was in big trouble this time.

It's not just the trouble at hand, but also his sister's sudden disappearance. Everything is confusing and he has no clue.

This was the first time Shen Zhong felt so confused.

At this moment, Li Chengyuan spoke again, "Master Shen, I have another question for you. Is my delegation short of people?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Zhong immediately forced a smile and said, "Not a single one is missing, Your Highness, I was too suspicious. I will leave now!"

However, Li Chengyuan stopped him and said calmly:

"Sir Shen, you led your men to attack the diplomatic mission, and you want to leave like this without even giving us an explanation? Do you think I'm easy to bully?"

Shen Zhong's cheeks twitched suddenly.

He knew very well that if he couldn't satisfy Li Chengyuan today, he would be in big trouble!

Fortunately, Shen Zhong had already made all the plans before he came.
