Chapter 611 Going to Liangzhoukou
Until Chen Hu's voice sounded outside, "Prince and Princess, we have arrived at the Night Palace."
He parked the carriage at the back door of Prince Ye's Mansion. Luo Junhe and Ji Yuntang got off the carriage one after another and walked into the mansion.
After returning to the room, the two began to discuss what had just happened.
Ji Yuntang picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea. She thought of Ji Huaiche breaking his leg and asked Luo Junhe.
"Ah He, did Ji Huaiche's leg have something to do with you?"
Although her tone was questioning, the expression on her face was very certain.
Based on her understanding of Luo Junhe, no one else would do such a thing except him.
Luo Junhe did not hide it from him and admitted it openly.
"Atang's guess was correct. It was indeed me who broke Ji Huaiche's leg."
"Since he always likes to hang around in front of you, let him go back home and lie down for a month. This way you can have some peace and quiet."
As he said this, he silently took out a slingshot from his arms.
"This slingshot is great. It's very easy for me to use."
The corners of Ji Yuntang's mouth twitched. She recognized it at a glance. This was what Luo Junhe had taken from Ji Zihang's servant.
I didn't expect that he would still carry it with him for such a long time.
Suddenly, Ji Yuntang had an idea in his mind.
She took something out from the space and placed it in front of Luo Junhe.
"Ahe, this is for you."
When Luo Junhe picked it up, he found that what she gave him was a very small crossbow arrow.
The crossbow is no bigger than a palm, with arrows hidden inside the end, and up to six arrows can be fired at once.
And under the crossbow, there is a buckle design, so it can be worn directly on the arm, and people outside cannot see it at all because of the sleeve.
While marveling at the workmanship of the crossbow, Luo Junhe asked, "Atang, did you design this crossbow?"
Ji Yuntang smiled and said, "Yes, I named it the Divine Crossbow. Don't be fooled by its small size, but it is much more useful than a slingshot."
"You can decide its range yourself. The longest range is 100 meters. One arrow can kill a wild boar. It is very useful for self-defense."
Luo Junhe knew that there were various guns and ammunition in Ji Yuntang's space, but that kind of thing was very dangerous to carry with you, and it was also inconvenient to take it out and use it.
In comparison, this small crossbow is much safer.
Luo Junhe held the magic arrow and couldn't help but want to try out its power.
He got up and went to the open space outside. There was a very thick steel plate in the backyard of the Night King's Mansion, which was usually used for practicing martial arts.
It is difficult for ordinary knives and guns to pierce it, and at most they can just make a few scratches on it.
Luo Junhe took the crossbow and aimed at a point on the steel plate. Then he lightly pulled the trigger with his fingertips, and the arrow in the crossbow flew out with a "whoosh".
The speed was so fast and the power was so great that with a "bang" the tip of the arrow shot directly into the steel plate.
When he went over to pull out the arrow, he found that the steel plate, which was as thick as an adult's arm, was almost pierced through.
As he sighed in his heart, he was even more impressed by the extraordinary abilities of his little princess.
Not only is she good at using hot weapons, she is also first-rate in making cold weapons.
With this power, even the craftsmen from Western Shu, which is known as the best among the four kingdoms in weapons, cannot compare to her in any way.
Thinking of this, Luo Junhe couldn't help but say: "If Atang were a man, he would have been famous all over the world long ago."
"But fortunately you are a woman, so I have the honor of marrying you."
Sometimes when he thought about the fact that he could marry a princess like Ji Yuntang, he felt that he must have done great things in his previous life and had good fortune, so he could meet her.
Ji Yuntang looked at him, smiled, and took his hand.
"I was able to meet Ah He. Isn't this a blessing from my past life?"
If she had no luck, how could she have traveled to Dongchen Country after her sudden death and become Ji Yuntang?
The couple understood each other tacitly. After returning to the room, Ji Yuntang told Luo Junhe what had just happened in the Dali Temple.
"Ah He, I just asked Xu Shaoqing to find the case file of Zhang Laojiu's family extermination. He told me that the real culprit of this case has not been caught. The reason why the case was closed was because he was forced to close the case quickly due to the pressure from Emperor Jingyang."
"In order to appease the people, the court simply picked two random criminals, disguised them as murderers and executed them. There were no witnesses at the scene, so most people believed that the murderer had been caught."
Luo Junhe narrowed his eyes, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.
"People in the imperial court always only care about their own interests when doing things. I suspect that the murderer who killed Zhang Laojiu's family is related to the illegal salt case."
Ji Yuntang picked up the teacup and took a sip before saying, "I think so too, but this way, the clues we found are broken again."
"The person who harmed you planned everything very carefully and perfectly, leaving almost no evidence behind."
"And the batch of smuggled salt back then has already been confiscated by Emperor Jingyang. It is estimated that it is long gone now. There is no witness or evidence. I am afraid that it will not work if we want to clear the name of An Qi and Long Yin."
How could Luo Junhe not know? It had been too long and the main evidence was gone.
The person who was behind this was so careful in his actions that he would definitely not leave any evidence for them.
Now I am checking the evidence just to see if I can follow the clues to find the other party.
Of course it would be best if we could find him, but I won’t give up if I can’t find Luo Junhe.
In short, he was determined to save An Qi and Long Yin.
His face darkened slightly, and his tone was unquestionable, "If there is no evidence, then we will create evidence. If that doesn't work, we will go to Liangzhoukou to break into the prison."
Upon hearing this, Ji Yuntang immediately stood up and said, "Okay, let's get ready and set off tonight."
She is a person of action and doesn't like to procrastinate. Once she has decided to go, she should set off immediately.
Moreover, when it comes to saving lives, the sooner the better.
Luo Junhe had the same idea, so the two of them disguised themselves. Ji Yuntang then went down to give Chen Hu and Wang Sheng some instructions, asking them to guard the Prince Ye's Mansion.
Then, he set off with Luo Junhe.
Since the distance from the capital to Liangzhoukou was thousands of miles, they did not drive a carriage, but each of them rode a thousand-mile horse and set off.
It was the first time that Ji Yuntang saw Luo Junhe riding a horse. At this moment, he had turmeric powder on his face, deliberately making himself look like a middle-aged man. Although he was wearing an ordinary black robe, it still couldn't hide his charm.
