Chapter 58 New Home

1 "You two have a good time hiding in the village in the mountains, but you have kept me busy."

Her Highness the Princess seemed to have been sitting on the arhat for a long time, so she stretched her waist. A very handsome young man who was accompanying her behind him handed it over to her. The princess's eyes moved and she threw a very charming one.

She glanced at him and stood up holding his hand. Li Chongrun vaguely seemed to see his aunt's hand grabbing the boy's hand.

"It's a troubled time in the capital of the gods. Not long after the fall of King Wei, the ministers in the court were cleaned up by King Liang using various excuses." Princess Taiping took two steps with the help of the little boy. Under the breeze, her soft pink hair

The beard skirt made of gauze snakes close to the body, revealing a very plump figure. It seems that the belly is slightly protruding.

Li Chongrun, who was standing opposite her, stared at it carefully, secretly wondering whether he had eaten too much or had it.

There was a soft "pop" sound. Princess Taiping pretended to be angry and slapped Li Chongrun on the head, "Be serious, where can you look around casually?"

"Is your Highness the Princess happy? This is a good thing." Shangguan Wan'er also noticed the strangeness of the princess, turned to make arrangements with Fang'er and said: "Move a sofa from the carriage, and then make arrangements with Ruyu to give her a set.

Go to the princess’s mansion.”

"There's no need to give it away. Your little fat guy has already arranged for Xue Chongxun to move a whole set of things from that small building to the house. Such things for enjoyment, if this kid hadn't become famous, I would have thought he was just a playboy.

How come all the brains are focused on daily enjoyment?" Princess Taiping instructed the boy to call Bubu to come over. Before Fang'er could call people to move the sofa, Princess Taiping asked several bearers to carry Bubu over.

, led Li Chongrun and the others to a secret place.

The newly built Linzi Palace occupies the size of two streets. The layout of the front hall and back bedrooms is not as large as the villa where I lived in Qingyi Garden before, but it is much more refined.

A circle of clear water surrounds the rockery in the middle of the backyard, forming a small island in the middle of the lake. Several bedrooms are scattered like stars, and are very elegantly shaded by flowers, trees and bamboos. A circle of corridors walks along the water's edge.

Going around in a circle, several covered bridges spanned the water, connecting the bedrooms and the corridors into one place, reflecting on the waveless water and contrasting with the blooming lotus.

Crossing a covered bridge, Li Chongrun discovered that Shangguan Wan'er's former courtyard remained intact at its original location, except that the road in front of the main entrance had been dug into a small river, and a small boat made of stones was moored at the entrance.

In front of it, let the river ripple. The small river passes through the square wall and is connected with the branch of Luoshui outside.

A very exquisite pavilion was built on top of the stone boat, with gorgeous carvings and paintings. There were also several very exquisite palace lanterns hung on it. Judging from the furnishings, it seemed that it was for banquets. However, it was not a meal at this time, nor was there any

The servants and entourage were making arrangements, and the place seemed to have just been built, and the smell of raw lacquer was a bit strong. Li Chongrun didn't know what the purpose of Her Highness the Princess came to come so far.

Princess Taiping got down from the boat and waved the bearers and the boys who were supporting her to leave. After those people left, Princess Taiping walked to a wall at the stern of the ship and marked one long and one short one on the wall.

After knocking and waiting for a while, a secret door suddenly opened from the carved wall. A somewhat narrow staircase was exposed.

"You can change the code yourself later. I'll just tell you where the door is. I won't go down." Princess Taiping did not go down. She walked towards the bow of the ship and allowed the confidential things she said to be taken away by the breeze and dissipated in the ocean.

Between heaven and earth.

"Zhou Xing is not dead. Your Majesty took pity on him because he did a lot for his ascension to the throne. He was sentenced to exile in Lingnan. But he was beaten to death by a carriage before he left the city."

"It was the King of Wei who killed Zhou Xing, but the King of Wei was not much better. When he was reprimanded, he passed by the Yellow River on the way. The carriage was frightened, and both the people and the carriage rushed into the Yellow River. When they were found, they were almost killed.

The Yellow River water rushed back to Luoyang and died."

"When Zhou Xing died, Junchen took over the post of Zhou Xing's Qiuguan Assistant Minister. Lijing Gate was no longer useful, so His Majesty issued an edict to withdraw that yamen."

"Monk Liaofan from Dabaoen Temple was investigated and found to be related to the King of Wei and the Zheng family in Xingyang. It turned out that monk Liaofan's real name was actually Zheng, and he was a descendant of a side branch of the Zheng family. It was just that Fengyiwei investigated and found out that Liaofan from Dabaoen Temple was related to him.

At that time, monk Liaofan passed away just like that."

"Recently, wherever I, Fengyi Guard, investigate, people will die. Since His Majesty was assassinated at the beginning of the year, the heads of the Zheng family, Lu family and Wang family have actually discussed it. One has died of illness, another has died of drunkenness, and the Lu family has

The head of the family stayed at home and was actually killed by a meteorite." Princess Taiping looked a little angry, "I have discussed it with Your Majesty for a long time, and it seems that there is already someone from Wuling in the guard. It's just that.

I can't find out who this thief is, but I think he must be one of the very high-ranking people."

"Could it be that His Highness is suspicious of his nephew?" Li Chongrun asked curiously, but if his aunt really doubted him, I'm afraid he wouldn't be qualified to still be here blowing the autumn wind.

"Next time, don't ask such idiotic questions." Shangguan Wan'er rolled her eyes at Li Chongrun, "Master Di went to Hebei according to the order, but he didn't know what he was going to do. Although I have many people who can do things, it's just that you are

The least obvious one. There are only a few people in the guard who know you, so they were all transferred to you, and now they all work under our feet."

Only then did Li Chongrun realize the meaning of the princess bringing him here. It turned out that she was arranging for him to do the Infernal Affairs in Infernal Affairs.

"I gave you five people. Qiancai heard that your kid has made a lot of money recently, so I don't think you need my help. You don't have to interfere with Wei's task of keeping an eye on the world's aristocratic families. If you need any information or informants, just go to them.

I'll do it. But remember, don't have anything to do with the Fengyi Guards I'm leading now." Princess Taiping's eyes were calm, but there seemed to be countless waves hidden beneath that calmness. "Because one day, if Your Majesty and I both go crazy,

Uproot the current Fengyi Guard, and I can only count on you for this matter."

"Your Highness, do you want to inform your Majesty about such an important matter?" Wan'er could see from the side that this little girl of hers seemed to have something to hide, but she didn't want to say it, and she couldn't tell it clearly.

Question: "Otherwise, if Your Majesty convicts me of punishment in the future, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with him."

"This is what your Majesty means. Your Majesty personally controls Fengyi Guard, and I am only in charge of it after all." Princess Taiping knew what Wan'er was afraid of, but she still explained it to Li Chongrun, fearing that he would not dare to do something bold. "This guard

Neither Your Majesty nor I will interfere with who is in the office, what they are doing, how they are doing it, and how long it will take. Your only mission is to dig out the Wuling people."

"Auntie, for such an important matter, my nephew is still a child...is it possible that he thinks too highly of me?"

"Child? This time His Majesty pushed down the Lijing Gate and overthrew the King of Wei. Didn't it just come up with an idea like a kid like you? Now the King of Liang has built the Magistrate's Court and taken over all the stalls of the Lijing Gate.

Guess who else is among the people in charge of the Magistrate's Court, besides Prince Liang himself and Lai Junchen?"

"My nephew doesn't know."

"Your Highness Li Longji, King of Chu, is a little younger than you!"

"What?" Li Chongrun was shocked. He had not heard from Li Longji for a long time since he said goodbye without even saying goodbye in the west city. He thought he should still be studying there at this time, but unexpectedly he went there.

Such a dark place.

"Prince Liang has always been cautious. I think this matter is also arranged by His Majesty." Princess Taiping did not continue the matter. Instead, she turned around and said another thing. "I have arranged a surprise for you. I think I can deliver it this afternoon."

When I arrive, I will go here first and say you are welcome."

Taiping took Wan'er and talked about some matters in the court. Li Chongrun was bored and went to the secret door by himself.

The stairs in the secret door were very short, with only a few steps. Going down was a small platform. A guard in black was waiting for him with a lantern. When he saw him coming in, he closed the door from the inside and turned several times on the stairs.

, walked into a hall.

There are several desks in the hall, and four people are working in front of them. There are also several guards, who seem to be the guards on duty who had seen him in the princess's palace. It seems that he was transferred because he knew about his relationship with Fengyi Guard.

Get here.

When the four people heard the noise, they looked up. Their faces were illuminated by the lights on the stage, and Li Chongrun realized that they were all acquaintances.

Chen Zi'ang must have come here. Qiniang, who taught him martial arts, and Daozhang Li, who taught him medical skills, were naturally among them. The last one was a palace servant who looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere.

"I have met His Royal Highness the King of Linzi." Those three are all figures who are like his masters. Naturally, Li Chongrun wanted to be the first to see him. However, Li Chongrun could not remember where he had met this palace lady until she called him.

After greeting him, the slightly sharp voice reminded Li Chongrun that this was the person who was waiting for him at the door of Lijingmen Prison that day.

"You're welcome. I'm very confused when I'm suddenly assigned such a job. I need to learn more from you all." The job assigned by his princess aunt today really made Li Chongrun feel a little overwhelmed. Looking at the people present, it seemed that

None of them particularly fit the image of an intelligence officer in my mind, but I had no choice but to bite the bullet. Fortunately, as a street writer, I had read "The Barefoot Doctor's Handbook" and "Friends of Dual-Use Talents" before traveling through time.

and the "Militia Training Manual", the three major travel guides. Mr. Zhou was familiar with the organizational structure of that year after watching many spy war dramas, which gave him a little confidence.

"It's just that His Highness said there were five people above, why are there only four here?" Li Chongrun was a little puzzled and asked the palace man in yellow who was closest to him.

"Dong! Dong Dong!" Regular knocking sounded from the other side of the hall. It must have been a specially designed mechanism, and it echoed loudly in the hall.

A guard below went up to open the door, and a figure who was very familiar to Li Chongrun recently came down the ladder.

"Sister Ruyu!" Li Chongrun saw clearly the face of the visitor under the light. Isn't it the female official Ruyu in charge of Qingyi Garden?

"Ruyu has met the prince. I had a mission before and it was inconvenient to reveal my identity. I hope the prince will forgive me."

Ruyu's face was also a little dull. She thought that the person she needed to assist in the task given by His Majesty was Shangguan Wan'er, but she didn't expect that this little master of hers was the one she really needed to assist.

Several people discussed in the hall for a long time, but there was no special way to establish a world-wide network of informants in the blink of an eye. Only the man in yellow suggested that we should recruit some people first, as more people would make things easier. But we got it

Received unanimous approval from everyone.

While several people were brainstorming, Li Chongrun wandered back and forth in the hall with nothing to do. He found that there were four entrances to the hall. The entrance where he and Ruyu came down led to his aunt's small courtyard and to who knows who's behind.

In the bedroom, there is an opening that extends a long way to the north. I took a step and measured it, and it should have led to the outside of the palace.

The other entrance had a very high staircase. Li Chongrun climbed up it out of curiosity and found that the exit was the towering rockery in the bedroom. Looking from that exit, he could have a panoramic view of the entire palace, heading towards the northwest.

Look, he saw the stone boat not far away. Li Chongrun shouted twice to the princess and Aunt Wan'er on the stone boat. It seemed that they were blocked by the carefully arranged stone walls and trees, so they didn't hear anything.

Li Chongrun wanted to turn around and go back to the hall, but he suddenly caught a glimpse of something in the corner of his eye, which frightened him so much that he slid down the stairs.
