Chapter 87: Being nervous every day

 The eldest princess talked to her daughter for a long time.

 The central idea is to tell Du Wan that they rely on their wisdom to survive, and they can do everything just by talking. There will be some people who live by strength and physical strength, who are willing to be used by them. At the same time, I also used people around me as examples.

 For example, some people in the house.

 The guards are considered capable, so why don’t we have to listen to them?

As for the servants who do manual labor, don’t they have to obey their masters in everything?

Du Wan feels it makes sense.

This chicken soup class for the soul was not in vain, Du Wan went from listless to energetic. After the eldest princess left, she immediately ran to the martial arts hall.

 Instead of having time to think randomly, it is better to work hard to increase the force value.

In addition, she also specifically told Ningqin to tell her immediately if there was any news outside.

 Compared to the tranquility of the Princess Mansion.

Today the city gates are closed and people are in panic.

The Praetorian Guards and Imperial City Guards are still searching for criminals everywhere.

The second master of the Yan family, the young man who plotted against Du Wan, originally thought that he was not exposed, but the store where he was temporarily hiding was directly surrounded by the Imperial Guards.

 The young man immediately escaped through the secret door with his confidants.

 Fortunately, when I was renovating the store, I thought of leaving an escape route. The secret door only led to a small house nearby, not far from Fuzi, but he successfully escaped from the encirclement.

 The young man asked: "What's going on?"

“Second Master, we are being targeted!” a close subordinate said anxiously.

The plot against the little princess failed just this morning. The guards came to the door so quickly. The fact was too coincidental and exposed too quickly. It was not the young man's turn to think about it.

From this point, it can be seen that they should have been targeted by someone a long time ago, so they are acting strangely today. Especially the five people who were captured.

It wouldn’t be surprising if the other party had been staring at them for a long time.

The subordinate urged: "Second Master, what should we do next?"

 “Get out of the city.”

 The young man made a difficult decision.

At this moment, the man who went out to inquire about the news hurriedly came back to report, "Second Master, it's not good. The city gate is closed."

 The young man's face burst into anger, "Are you sure?"

"Confirmed. Our three strongholds in the city have just been taken down. Some brothers have been captured, and some are running for their lives. The government is searching for them everywhere."

   …”

 The veins on the young man’s hands are popping.

 There is no rush!

 At times like this, the less urgent it is!

The city gate is closed, and it is temporarily impossible to get out of the city. However, it is not advisable to stay here for a long time. You have to know the officers who are searching next door. As long as you search carefully, the secret door will be exposed sooner or later.

 “Go! Get out of here.”

 Young man gives orders.

  With a dozen subordinates.

The young man wanted to move the territory, but before they could go out through the back door, the imperial city guard came and knocked on the door, "Open the door! The Yamen is doing business, open the door quickly."

"I'm coming."

 The old voice of the concierge came.

 Young people and others were startled.

Does this old doorkeeper need to be in such a hurry to open the door?

They came through the secret door just now and had no contact with anyone in the house. No wonder the old concierge kept opening the door when he heard the official asked him to do something.

 This is how a normal person would react.

If it is too slow, it will be suspicious.

 The young man immediately gave the order, "Don't go through the back door, climb over the wall."

"yes."

 The group of people is not as simple as climbing over the wall.

 Climbed over a wall, and then climbed up the wall that separated the courtyard.

 If you avoid some people and don’t take the alleys and streets outside, you really won’t be caught for the time being. Most people are in panic at this time, and they won't walk around at home. If you are unlucky and encounter one or two people, just knock them out.

Pei Hao personally led the imperial guards to arrest the people.     Hence, no one was found when we went in.

 Let people continue to search, focusing on finding cellars, secret rooms and secret passages.

 Sure enough, I found a secret door.

 The secret door leads to the house next door.

 There was another search in the past, and the thief had already left.

Pei Hao walked around the house and finally stood next to a high wall. "There are some marks on this wall. They probably climbed over it."

 After finishing speaking, he paused again.

Pei Hao said thoughtfully: "Our people are guarding every entrance and exit. But we didn't see them."

 After saying that, Pei Hao first took a few steps back, then ran towards the high wall, leaped over the wall neatly.

Hu San and others followed and turned over.

 When he saw Pei Hao, he stopped where he was and looked at the wall opposite.

Soon, Pei Hao confirmed, "They escaped by climbing over the wall and did not take the right path. Let everyone know to expand the search."

                              offices

The two team leaders next to him immediately led their people to chase him.

Pei Hao didn't climb over the wall anymore. He asked someone to fetch the horse. He got on the horse and walked along the wall.

 After passing a house, he asked people to go in and search it.

 After finding no one, exit immediately and continue to the next house.

 Sure enough, traces were found.

 No, we found two unconscious people.

 Woke the man up and asked, both of them agreed that they had met a thief. Before they could call for help, they were knocked unconscious.

Pei Hao followed up with a few instructions.

 One by one they left in response...

 In the princess's mansion.

Du Wan did not wait for the news from the maids.

 When Du Qian returned home, Du Wan became anxious and went to find someone with a long sword in hand.

Du Qian saw his sister rushing over.

Holding a long sword in her hand, people who don’t know may think she comes to fight.

Du Qian smiled and asked: "Sister, are you still practicing swordsmanship at this time?"

“By the way, I was practicing, and I came over when I heard my elder brother came home.” Du Wan shook the long sword in his hand and inserted it into the scabbard.

Du Qian asked with concern: "Are you scared today?"

"No. When I realized that someone was plotting behind me, I was already on my way back home." Du Wan also despised her own vigilance.

 No, it’s not her fault!

 Having been the eldest daughter of Xianyu for twenty years, what else can I do? Does it mean that if she wants to travel through time, she must be proficient in all kinds of martial arts and transform into an awesome detective or killer?

 It’s not professional, it’s too difficult to be a person...sigh.

Du Wan threw the long sword on the table.

He sat down on the chair next to him and lay there listlessly.

 “Brother, I feel like I’m going to die.”

 “What nonsense are you talking about?”

"If the murderer is not found for a day, I will not even think about living a normal life. If this continues, I will have to suspect whether there is a conspiracy or an ambush every day no matter what I do, who I meet, or what happens. There are traps,…”

Du Wan said with a small mouth.

Du Qian had a dark face after hearing this.

 Finally, she concluded: "I feel nervous every day. Isn't this a mental disorder?"

“…” Du Qian didn’t know what to say for a moment.

After a long while, he said: "Sister, our uncle the emperor learned about you and immediately issued an order to arrest the killer. Prince Pei has been keeping an eye on this group of people for a long time, and he knew it as soon as they moved today. No, this time If this case is executed by him, I believe there will be a result soon."
