Chapter 823 Sneak into Jinling and see Mei Changsu again
Yan Yujin left. He was not in a good mood tonight. He liked the music well, but he also admired Gong Yu.
Although he had never thought about being with Gong Yu, he knew that Gong Yu already had a sweetheart and was so infatuated with him. While he was happy and blessed, he was also quite disappointed.
What made him even more depressed was that Sister Nihuang, who was so unattainable and goddess-like in his eyes, actually had someone she liked, and she liked the same person as Miss Gong Yu.
Although Yan Yujin seems to be a very out-of-touch and unruly person, he is actually a very gentle and kind-hearted gentleman on the inside. However, he lives a more transparent life than Xiao Jingrui. The two have different styles.
Gentleman.
After Princess Nihuang and Yan Yujin left, Gong Yu did not leave immediately. Instead, he sat in the private room, silently thinking about what had just happened.
In fact, she hasn't seen Zhou Chen in almost three years, but she often inquires about Zhou Chen's situation with Mr. Thirteen. Knowing that Zhou Chen will communicate peace through the alliance every once in a while, she feels at ease.
.
As for what happened between Zhou Chen and Mu Nihuang, she was a little envious in her heart, but she was not angry. She was very clear about her position and knew that she was not worthy of Zhou Chen. Princess Nihuang's identity and status were not
She is much nobler. In comparison, Princess Nihuang is more suitable for Zhou Chen than her.
But what she was worried about was whether she should tell Mr. Thirteen about Princess Nihuang. Judging from Zhou Chen's response, it was obviously because of Mei Changsu that he was reluctant to face Princess Nihuang.
host.
But this thought only passed by for a moment. She knew that with Mr. Thirteen's control over Miaoyinfang, she might have already known that Mu Nihuang had come.
If she could notice something strange about Mu Nihuang, there must be others who could, so there was no point in hiding it.
As expected, it didn't take long for Mr. Thirteen to call her. After seeing Mr. Thirteen, she also told Princess Nihuang's purpose, but she didn't say much. She just said that Princess Nihuang wanted to
Know the whereabouts of Gong Ziyu.
Mr. Thirteen was also an old spy. He could tell that Gong Yu was hiding something, but he didn't get to the bottom of it.
If Gong Yu was just a simple Jiangzuo Alliance spy, as the spy's steward and elder, he could force Gong Yu to reveal everything.
But Mei Changsu had already told him that he must protect Gong Yu, and also told him the real reason and the relationship between Zhou Chen and Gong Yu.
Although Mr. Thirteen was once the musician of Princess Jinyang, he is now highly valued by Mei Changsu and has become an indispensable person in the Jiangzuo Alliance.
But obviously, he is still not qualified to be compared with Zhou Chen. Even though he is older, in this era, his status is still just a servant.
Mr. Thirteen can become the chief spy of the Jiang Zuo Alliance in Jinling City, Daliang, so he is naturally a very smart person. Just from Gong Yu's words, he can understand the general idea. What he is thinking now is, what should he do?
How to inform his little master of this matter.
The issues between Zhou Chen, Princess Nihuang, and Mei Changsu are not something that a servant like him can discuss and decide casually.
Mei Changsu now lives in the Ningguo Marquis Mansion, with only Fei Liu by his side. However, Fei Liu is mentally ill and it is extremely risky to send messages through Fei Liu.
And among the servants of the Xie Mansion, they did not have the manpower, so it was very difficult to convey information within the Xie Mansion.
Fortunately, this matter concerned Mei Changsu, but it would not put Mei Changsu in danger, so he thought about it and continued to send people to keep an eye on the Xie Mansion. After Mei Changsu left the house, he would find a way to pass on the news.
past.
…………
"Jinling City is finally here!"
It was already dark, but Zhou Chen could still clearly see the three characters "Jinling City" written on the city wall.
He has traveled through countless worlds and visited Jinling City many times, but that was Jinling City more than a thousand years later, and its name had been changed by that time.
Although the current Jinling City is not as grand as that of later generations, it is already considered a top-notch majestic city in this era, and the city walls are more than ten meters high.
It was already night at this time, and the gates of Jinling City had long been closed, and no one was allowed to enter the city.
Standing below, you can see guards standing guard near the city gate, and soldiers standing guard every few steps on the city wall. Once there is any movement at the city gate, you will be discovered immediately.
Zhou Chen was not prepared to spend the night outside the city. The gate of the city was heavily guarded, but it was not a problem for him.
He mobilized his inner strength, jumped up from a city wall, and flew up the city wall like a swallow. Then he used his Qing Kung with all his strength, and his speed was extremely fast.
The two soldiers who were closer were chatting. They were in a relatively remote location, so they could be lazy.
The two people were talking when suddenly one of them felt a gust of wind blowing by.
"Hey, why is there a sudden gust of wind?"
"Really? Why didn't I feel it? You must have drunk too much, right? You dare to drink even if you work the night shift. Be careful of being discovered by the boss. You will be in trouble then."
"Isn't it just that I drank some wine? What if the boss finds out? Maybe the boss drinks more than me. Is it possible that someone can break into Jinling City at night? What are you worrying about?
.”
"You said it seemed windy."
"I just felt it. Forget it, I'll just squint for a while and stare. I'll switch to you later."
"Okay, you can squint for a while first."
…………
Zhou Chen easily entered Jinling City. Because it is the capital of Daliang, Jinling City is also divided into an outer city and an inner city. Those who can live in the inner city are either high-ranking officials or wealthy businessmen, and the innermost city is naturally
It's the imperial city.
He had lived in this capital city for more than ten years, so Zhou Chen was quite familiar with it. He quickly entered the inner city without spending much time in the outer city.
With his lightness skills, he naturally entered the inner city without anyone noticing, and then he followed his memory and headed towards the Ningguo Hou Mansion.
Before coming, he had thought a lot about whether to go to see Mei Changsu first or go to Miaoyinfang, the contact point of the Jiangzuo League.
It was night now, and Miaoyinfang was crowded with people, so he decided to go to Xie's Mansion first to discuss the follow-up matters with Mei Changsu.
Mei Changsu lived in the Snow Cottage of the Xie Mansion. Ever since Xie Yu found out that he was Jiangzuo Meilang, Xie Yu had become wary of him and sent many people to keep an eye on the Snow Cottage, both covertly and covertly.
Fei Liu discovered all this and told Mei Changsu, but Mei Changsu didn't take it to heart. He had no plans to do anything in Xie's mansion now, so there was no need to be afraid that Xie Yu would send people to monitor him.
Mei Changsu was lighting a lamp and reading a book. After finishing his snack, Fei Liu walked up to him.
"Turn off the flame and go to sleep."
Fei Liu's accent is very unique, because the torture he suffered since childhood makes him different from normal people. Even in the simplest speech, he cannot speak as smoothly as ordinary people.
Generally speaking, it is one word, two words, or three words. It is quite rare to be able to say more than three words at a time.
Mei Changsu smiled gently and put down the book helplessly: "Okay, I'm going to sleep."
So he walked to the bed and was about to take off his clothes and sleep, but suddenly Fei Liu's ears twitched and his face changed: "There is someone."
"Is there anyone?"
Mei Changsu stopped moving and stood up, feeling shocked.
This is the Xie Mansion, and it is almost impossible for outsiders to sneak into it. Could it be that Xie Yu wanted to kill him after knowing that he was Jiangzuo Meilang?
But this is too far-fetched. He has not yet contacted the prince and Prince Yu.
Just as he was thinking wildly and Fei Liu tensed his body, preparing to rush out, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in their ears.
"Hey, Xiao Feiliu, you've made some progress, you can hear my voice now."
Hearing this voice, Mei Changsu, who was nervous, breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he was overthinking.
Fei Liu frowned and hummed, "It's not fun."
He thought someone had sneaked in and wanted to harm Mei Changsu, and he was just thinking of having a good time, but he didn't expect that it was Zhou Chen who he couldn't beat.
The window was opened, Zhou Chen entered the room lightly, and then closed the window.
Mei Changsu saw Zhou Chen wearing a Rakshasa mask, smiled happily, and touched Fei Liu's head to express comfort.
"when did you come?"
Zhou Chen took off the mask. He wore the mask with caution.
"It was already dark when we arrived at the city gate. I sneaked into the city secretly. Knowing that you were at Ning Guohou's Mansion, I came to find you first."
"No one discovered it?"
"Don't worry, even Fei Liu only noticed me after I got a dozen steps closer. It's even less likely for others to notice me."
"snort."
Fei Liu groaned unhappily. He originally thought that through hard work, he should be close to Zhou Chen, but when Zhou Chen said this, it seemed as if he had not made any progress.
However, Mei Changsu's eyes lit up and he asked hesitantly: "Have you made a breakthrough?"
Zhou Chen nodded: "I have lived up to expectations. After several years, I finally made a breakthrough. If you hadn't called me urgently and said that the plan was about to start, I would have planned to go to Beiyan and pick Tuoba Hao first, and then go
Dayu is looking for Xuanbu."
Mei Changsu said: "Tuoba Hao is okay, but if you challenge Xuan Bu, you'd better take it easy first. After all, he is the best in the world. Even our Jiangzuo Alliance doesn't know the depth of this person. When you arrive in Jinling
, but you can take the time to try fighting with Commander Meng."
"Meng Zhi? That's not bad."
Zhou Chen also had this idea, but Meng Zhi was their old acquaintance after all. Even if they were to fight, it is estimated that both sides would not be ruthless. In this regard, they were not as good as Tuoba Hao.
"Seeing as you are still living here, it means that the plan has not officially started yet, right?"
Mei Changsu nodded and said: "Yes, but now that all parties are in place, we will wait for the situation to develop and we will take action."
"Okay, the plan was all planned by you. I will be an errand boy or a thug now. If you need me to do anything, just tell me."
Zhou Chen has been traveling abroad in the past few years. Although he knows many of Mei Changsu's plans through the plot of the original novel, he is not ready to let Mei Changsu change his plans.
Because in the plot, Mei Changsu succeeds in the end, although there are many twists and turns in the middle; but who knows what will happen if he suddenly changes his plan?
Therefore, at this time, staying the same to cope with the ever-changing situation is the most appropriate choice.
Mei Changsu said: "Originally you were a very important part of my plan, but I was worried about ruining your breakthrough, so in the end I had someone fake it and replace Beiyan's Bailiqi to participate in Nihuang's event.
Son-in-law selection meeting."
Zhou Chen was shocked. Fortunately, he showed up late. If Mei Changsu's original idea was true, wouldn't he have to meet Mu Nihuang?
Fortunately, fortunately.
"So what do I need to do next?"
"It's not necessary for the time being, but I have made an appointment with Jingrui and Yujin tomorrow to go to Yingfeng Tower to watch the fun together. Will you come with us?"
"Go to Yingfeng Tower for the competition to select a son-in-law?"
When Zhou Chen heard this, he immediately shook his head and said: "Forget it, I won't go."
"Hey, haven't you loved the excitement the most in the past few years? Now that there is such a lively event, you don't want to go. Is there something wrong?" Mei Changsu looked surprised.
Zhou Chen secretly cursed in his heart that it is not a good thing for people to be too smart.
"It's nothing, it's just that I've been traveling for a while and I'm a little too tired. I want to take a good rest."
"I'm just going to watch the excitement, not doing anything else. It just so happens that you're going tomorrow, and you can also help me see those who are participating in the competition. Although I sent Baili, his strength is also qualified to fight for the bottom of the Langya master list, but
I'm still a little worried that some unexpected person will show up along the way. With you following me, if I find out, I can prepare in advance."
Mei Changsu is unparalleled in his intelligence and scheming, but he also knows that not everything in the world can be calculated by him. He mostly just hides in the dark, calculating mentally but not intentionally.
But sometimes people are not as good as God. Who knows if an accident will happen. If there is some hidden master who also wants to win the championship, it will affect his plan.
He let Zhou Chen go there just for protection. With Zhou Chen's ability to compete for the best in the world, even if there was an accident, he would be able to detect it early and even solve the problem quickly.
Zhou Chen said: "I think your plan is so dense that no accidents will happen."
Mei Changsu became more and more suspicious: "You are very abnormal. Why don't you want to go to Yingfeng Tower so much?"
"No, forget it, even if you want to take a rest, I will go with you tomorrow, but in what capacity should I go, Gong Ziyu, or Rakshasa?"
Zhou Chen did not refuse again. With Mei Changsu's cleverness, if he continued to refuse, he would definitely guess something.
In fact, he also thought about confessing to Mei Changsu, but he still couldn't say it out loud. The main reason was that the matter was very embarrassing and Mei Changsu was not in good health. He was afraid that it would make Mei Changsu feel uncomfortable.
Affects both emotionally and physically.
"Gong Ziyu's identity is more convenient for subsequent plans. It is better for Rakshasa to hide behind the scenes." Mei Changsu said.
"Okay, as you said, sit down and I will take your pulse and see how your physical condition is now."
Zhou Chen sat down and asked Mei Changsu to sit next to him.
Mei Changsu sat down and said, "I am in good health. Before coming to Jinling, Lin Chen had already seen me and brought me medicine. Doctor Yan had also sneaked into Jinling City with Li Gang and others, waiting for me to leave.
Ning Guohou Mansion, they will come and take care of me."
Zhou Chen ignored him, grabbed his wrist and began to feel his pulse.
