The second prince had hidden guards nearby, leaving Lu Jia and Chun Bao behind.

"Miss, why don't you just kill that dog! I'm so mad! His hidden guards are also cowards. They watched his master being stabbed by us, and he was still hiding in the crowd. This is what we left for him. I lost a dog's life, what if I didn't save it!
Pooh!Garbage!

Sure enough, they were all cowards from beginning to end. How could the old general have such a useless grandson. "

Lu Jia snorted lightly, "It may not be the grandson of the old general, let's check."

Chun Bao curled her lips, "You son of a bitch, get angry! Let's not talk about him, so what, miss, is the Minister of the Household Department reliable?"

"Almost, he is short of money. There are not many people who can give him such a large sum of money at one time. He is not a clean official himself. If he has money, he is not a bastard. I'm going to meet him in the tavern tomorrow."

"But we can give him such a large sum of money at once, wouldn't he think too much? He wouldn't bet on his future just for a daughter, would he?"

Lu Jia smiled, "How can you bet? From top to bottom, it is rare to buy and sell officials? We are in the army, and we are used to strict military discipline. We will enter the officialdom later. Hmph!"

The two were talking, passed through the noisy crowd, and returned to the teahouse where Zhao Du was.

"Are there a lot of people?" Zhao Du waited impatiently. If it wasn't for the fear that Lu Jia would not find anyone when he came back, he would have wanted to look for him. He regretted that he didn't bring a servant with him when he went out for a long time.

Lu Jia sat across from Zhao Du, and said with a smile, "There aren't many people, it's okay, but when I came out, I met a dog, which delayed me for a while."

Chun Bao followed suit, "A stupid dog."

Zhao Du looked puzzled, "Dog?"

"Yes, dog!" Chun Bao nodded angrily.

Zhao Du frowned, "That won't work. There are so many people on the street during the Lantern Festival, both adults and children. If someone's dog is not locked up or a wild dog comes, it will inevitably hurt people. It will be bad if there is another stampede. Alright, you sit down first, I'll go to the patrolling Jingwei Battalion to respond."

Zhao Du got up while talking, and left in a hurry.

Chun Bao turned to Lu Jia and said, "Master Zhao, is he still a good official? He's a member of the Ministry of Punishment. Don't worry about it. He's still pretending to be a commoner."

Lu Jia looked at Zhao Du's back, "The imperial court is not full of gluttons. In fact, Xiao Yan is not a bad official, but people like them are generally loyal to the imperial court and are naturally hostile to us."

Chun Bao curled his lips, "This imperial court is like a rotten piece of wood, full of moths, it even plots against its own soldiers, so why should they be loyal."

"Everyone's mind is different."

"The lady knocked over Zhao Du's drink before?"

"Although the way is different, not everyone will be pulled to take advantage of it." Lu Jia touched Chun Bao's little head, "You will understand after a while."

Chun Bao rolled his eyes, "Actually, I understand now that Miss doesn't want to use him, it's just that some people are suitable for use now, because what we do is dirty now, and some people are suitable for use in the future. In the future, our hands will not be so dirty. gone."

Lu Jia scratched Chunbao's nose, "Are you wronged?"

Chunbao shook his head, "I'm not wronged."

"Good Chunbao, slowly getting better."

"Ah."

Chun Bao nodded heavily, his eyes were bright.

Lu Jia couldn't bear to see Chun Bao's expression like this. If nothing happened to Ping Weijun, why would they do such despicable things.

Unfortunately, there is no such thing.

Just as he was talking, Zhao Du squeezed over from the crowd, his expression was not very good, and he said solemnly and apologetically: "Miss Lu San, I'm afraid I won't be able to continue shopping with you today."

Lu Jia raised his eyebrows, "What's wrong? Are there really wild dogs hurting people?"

Zhao Du grabbed the teacup and took a sip, "No, there was a commotion over there. The Second Highness came to visit the Lantern Festival, and was plotted against and stabbed."

Lu Jia suddenly looked shocked, "Second Highness? When I entered the palace today, I heard that the Second Highness is guarding the imperial tomb? Are you sure it is the Second Highness? Can the guard of the imperial tomb still go to the Lantern Festival?"

Zhao Du said: "It is indeed the Second Highness. I don't know why he came here from the imperial tomb. The Criminal Department may have to investigate overnight, so I can't accompany Third Miss Lu. I have to go to the scene now."

Lu Jia hurriedly said: "Then go and do your work, let's go shopping together next time." '

Zhao Du had a look of reluctance and apology, but he had to leave in a hurry.

As soon as Zhao Du left, Chun Bao immediately said: "Is the Second Prince so stupid? Let the guards stab him and not let the hidden guards take him back immediately, and even alerted the Ministry of Punishment?
Is he trying to drag us into the water and expose us?

If he had gone directly to the emperor to expose us at that time, maybe it would have been okay, but now Concubine Ning has lost one step, if he exposes us again, even if we are arrested, his life will not be much easier.

Are you really going to die with us? "

For a while, Lu Jia really couldn't figure out the second prince's intentions.

at the same time.

Zhao Du organized people from the Jingwei camp to protect the scene at the place where the second prince had an accident.

In the crowd, Xiao Yan looked ahead with dark eyes.

He saw Lu Jia attack the second prince.

Just now, he was also the one who made a trip secretly, so that the second prince's hidden guards could not take him away quietly.

After a pause, he raised his foot and stepped forward, "What's the matter?"

When Xiao Yan appeared suddenly, Zhao Du immediately relaxed with a tense face, "Why are you here? Something serious happened, and the Second Highness was assassinated here."

Xiao Yan restrained the darkness in his eyes, with shock on his face, "Assassinated? Didn't he come out of the palace today and went to the imperial tomb? Why was he assassinated here? Who is it?"

Zhao Du pointed to the back, "It's in the backyard of the tea house. I've gone to ask for a doctor. He was stabbed in the chest and he was unconscious. The location of the wound is too special, so I dare not touch him casually."

Xiao Yan said: "There are so many people on this street, the day lily will be cold when the imperial doctor arrives, so I remember that Lu Jia has a house near here, so I will send people there first."

Zhao Du was taken aback

He remembered that he had gone to that house to look for Lu Jia a few days ago, and it was indeed not far from here, and the moat behind the house was not too far away, there was no one on the other side of the moat now, the imperial doctor should have come from there Can be much faster.

"But is this suitable? Someone's private house."

Xiao Yan said: "There is nothing suitable or inappropriate, human life is at stake, not to mention that the house is also the house of the Marquis of Rong An, find a door panel, let the Jingwei camp open the way, and send people there now."

Right now there is no better way, indeed, if you don't take it away, just wait for the imperial doctor, it's too slow.

Zhao Du ordered someone to execute it.

When Lu Jia and Chun Bao returned home from playing by the Jinshui River, they walked to the gate of the yard and saw that the yard was brightly lit, and there were even four officers and soldiers from the Jingwei Battalion standing at the gate of the yard.

"Damn it! What's going on!" Chun Bao immediately felt like a furry cat, vigilantly trying to touch the slingshot hidden in his sleeve, "The second prince recruited us, are they here to arrest someone?"
