Stand-in eunuch: I pamper the harem for the emperor

Chapter 890
Just at this time, the Minister of Punishment also hurried over.

It was learned that the assassin escaped from the east of the city and had disappeared without a trace.

The King of Zhou immediately ordered the commanders of the imperial guards to dispatch and control all the generals guarding the city in the east.

Just as Lu Hao thought, there were so many assassins and it was impossible for them all to evacuate safely without anyone acting as an internal coordinator or arranging escape routes for them.

However, whatever they can think of, the mastermind behind the scenes can naturally think of it too.

"King Qi, when we rushed there, the two generals were missing and their whereabouts are unknown. The last general has sent people to search everywhere."

The Guards Commander reported.

"What? Missing? It seems that they let the assassin go. Arrest their families immediately. Be sure to find the mastermind!"

The king of Zhou Dynasty was very angry.

"The general has captured their families."

The commander of the Imperial Guard responded loudly.

"Very good! Criminal Department, you will start interrogating immediately to see if there are any useful clues?"

The King of Zhou turned to look at the Minister of Punishment and ordered again.

"Wei Chen takes orders!"

The Minister of Punishment was ordered to leave.

The Prime Minister frowned, looked at the King of Zhou, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the man behind the scenes is very cunning. He probably doesn't leave many clues. I suggest that we investigate the killer organization in the world."

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister, I now order you to investigate the assassination of the prince. You can mobilize all resources. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed without mercy!"

The King of Zhou directly ordered Yuan Minglang to be responsible for investigating the case.

"The old minister leads the order!"

The Prime Minister responded quickly.

"Prince, you are the victim and you are also involved in this case and assisting the Prime Minister. Do you understand?"

The King of Zhou turned to look at His Highness the Crown Prince and explained.

"My son understands!"

His Royal Highness bowed slightly and nodded.

"Very well, you go down first."

King Zhou waved his hand, indicating that they could leave.

When Lu Hao heard this, he didn't find any valuable information. Fortunately, he had already targeted the King of Zhou, so it was not without gain.

That night, the entire Haojing City was hunting for assassins, causing people to panic and complain.

Lu Hao didn't want to meddle in these nosy matters, and seeing that the trading time was coming, he didn't want to cause any complications.

……

Three days later, Su Xingyue contacted the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, counted the first batch of five hundred million taels of silver, and headed towards Fengye City under the escort of the imperial guards.

At the same time, Lu Hao also took Su Yifei into the carriage, followed in the footsteps of Su Xingyue and the imperial guards, and left Haojing City.

Before leaving, His Highness the Crown Prince actually sent ten thousand taels of gold to express his gratitude, and the legend of "Lu Yi" was everywhere in Haojing City.One person and one piano, they fought against the desperate assassin and saved the prince and princess.

Moreover, it was rumored that Qin Zhixuan, a talented woman from Haojing City, and the Seventh Princess seemed to have a special liking for Mr. Lu. There was also rumors that the Seventh Princess wanted the King of Zhou to marry her to this "Mr. Lu".

Because of these rumors, Su Yifei became jealous, causing Lu Hao to coax the beauty for two days. It was not until the two of them were far away from Haojing City that she finally calmed down.

Fengye City, a small border town, became lively because of this transaction.

Starting from Haojing City, if traveling by horse, it would take at least two days and two nights to reach Fengye City.

If we were traveling by carriage, it would probably take an extra day, but with a beauty of Su Yifei's caliber accompanying us and Miss Cui'er waiting on us, we wouldn't be lonely.

On the other side, a large amount of military supplies were also transported through the border to the outskirts of Fengye City. Mr. Tang, the Minister of War who came to dock, had already quietly come to Fengye City to take charge of the overall situation.

Of course, the general Wang Jie who corresponds to him has also arrived to the north of Fengye City and can go south to enter Fengye City at any time.

Although it was just in case, the army led by General Wang Jie also came here in advance to make arrangements for the last time.

The bloody old man was the person in charge of this transaction, pretending to be the spokesperson of a big force, and he had already met Mr. Tang.

Mr. Tang felt that there was a very dangerous aura about this blood-poisonous old man, and he didn't talk much. He only said that he was here for a transaction.

Mr. Tang can't control that much now. As long as he can get military supplies, don't think too much about other things for the time being.

After all, there are soldiers guarding the city and General Wang Jie's army here. If something happens, they will be the first to reinforce.

As a bystander, Lu Hao was the son-in-law of the Su family to be precise. He only accompanied Su Yifei and Su Xingyue to trade.

Their carriage was hung at the end, and they were making love to the beautiful woman, but they did not attract the attention of the guards.

On the contrary, the Imperial Guards knew that Lu Hao was highly skilled in martial arts and had saved His Highness the Crown Prince, so they respected him very much.

After three full days, Lu Hao and others arrived at Fengye City, and Su Xingyue went to see Mr. Tang, Minister of the Ministry of War, and confirmed that the transaction time would be tomorrow at noon, and the location would be in a small village five miles outside the city.

After Lord Tang Jue learned the location and time, he immediately sent someone to notify Wang Jie to provide assistance to ensure the smooth completion of the first two transactions.

Of course, we also need to investigate at the same time, who is the transaction with, and where does the silver ultimately go?

Although a person has appeared now, that is, the bloody old man, this mysterious guy only has two eyes exposed. He is mysterious and sinister, and his whole body exudes waves of evil energy.

There is no doubt that both parties to the transaction have their own hidden agendas and show off their magical powers, and they are all waiting for the final decisive moment.

The next day, a mighty army of Imperial Guards escorted boxes of silver to the first transaction five miles away.

Su Xingyue followed the carriage with her daughter, son-in-law, and Mr. Tang Juetang, talking and laughing along the way.

After all, once such a large arms and supplies transaction is completed, the military strength of the Zhou Dynasty will rise to the top of the three dynasties and become the most powerful dynasty in the entire Western Region.

The only threat now is from the Chinese Empire. I heard that the Chinese Empire's army has moved north to Jindu City, the capital of Shu.

Preparations were being made to regain the cities of Shu that had been carved up by the three major kingdoms. However, the Xixia Dynasty also took the opportunity to send troops, and seemed to be encircling the Chinese Empire with the Yue Kingdom and the Zhou Dynasty.

The first main force of the Central Army of the Chinese Empire is worried about being outflanked. It is now hiding in Jindu City and dare not go out. Otherwise, these weapons will definitely not be transported to the territory of the Zhou Dynasty so smoothly.

The bloody old man led a group of people to deliver more than 1000 carriages of military supplies. The weapons included swords, spears, bows and arrows, crossbows and other weapons.

In the distant village, there were densely packed carriages parked, and some were parked on the wasteland outside the village, on the hillside.
