"Si Lili is a secret agent of the Northern Qi Dynasty, and he is also the leader of the entire spy network in the capital." Chen Pingping said in a calm tone, as if she was talking about an insignificant matter.
Qin Hao's heart skipped a beat and he immediately pretended to be surprised.
"Dean Chen, are you mistaken? Si Lili, a weak woman with no trace of martial arts training, could be the leader of the Northern Qi spy network?"
Emperor Qing showed a meaningful smile: "A woman's greatest weapon is not force, but themselves."
"Wouldn't someone as smart as Qin Aiqing be deceived by her?"
"My lord, I'm guilty."
Chen Pingping smoothed things over with a smile: "Since ancient times, heroes have struggled with beauty. That Si Lili is indeed beautiful. Northern Qi took great pains to send her to the capital. It is normal for Commander Qin to fall for her temptation without noticing."
Qin Hao pretended to be full of regret and said: "Since I know that Si Lili is the leader of the Northern Qi spy network, please give an order, and I am willing to personally arrest him and bring him to justice."
Emperor Qing just smiled and did not speak. Chen Pingping smiled and shook her head: "Commander Qin, please be patient. Northern Qi has spent a lot of manpower and material resources to plant countless spies in the capital. Si Lili is just one of the leaders. Capture
It won't be possible to uproot the entire spy network, but it will easily alert the enemy, so it's better to use the trick."
"What does Dean Chen mean?"
"Yes, I would also like to ask Commander Qin to continue to clarify the truth with the manager. It is best to take the opportunity to pass some false information to Northern Qi."
Emperor Qing patted Qin Hao on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Qin Aiqing, the war between Qing and Northern Qi is about to begin. If you can increase your chance of victory, the soldiers in front will lose less blood."
"Your Majesty, take the order." Qin Hao secretly slandered, is he following the order to pick up girls?
"Qin Aiqing, remember, as usual, don't let the manager see any flaws."
"My lord, I obey the order."
After Qin Hao left, the smile on Emperor Qing's face faded: "Chen Pingping, do you think he was really dazzled by beauty, or is he hiding something from me?"
When Chen Pingping heard this, she immediately said with a serious face: "Your Majesty, the Qin Commandery is a young hero, and his father is serving as the Minister of Punishment. He has a bright future. How can he join the Northern Qi Dynasty for a mere womanizer?"
"Well, that's true, but it's time for this kid to rein in his temper. What do you think about asking the queen to arrange a marriage for him?"
"A royal marriage is a great honor and is naturally excellent."
Emperor Qing showed a satisfied smile: "Well, then I have to ask the queen to choose a beautiful girl for him, otherwise the young couple will not get along after marriage, and they will blame me instead."
........
After Qin Hao came out of the hall, he felt wet on his back. Every time he faced Emperor Qing, an old Yin coin, he had an inexplicable palpitation. Emperor Qing's power was one thing, but what made Qin Hao even more afraid was
, the strength of the opponent’s grand master.
When he was training with Ye Liuyun in Wufeng Mountain, he had seen the terrifying combat power of the great master. Ye Liuyun was still in a sparring state. If he were in combat mode, he would be considered a high achiever if he could catch three moves.
There seems to be only one level of difference between the Ninth Grade and the Grand Master, but in fact they are completely different species.
No matter how strong a ninth-grade warrior is, he is still just a warrior, while a grand master is already close to an immortal cultivator.
"It seems that we need to find an opportunity to leave the capital."
After this period of accumulation, Qin Hao has faintly touched the boundary of the ninth level. The reason why he has not forced a breakthrough is to avoid attracting Emperor Qing's attention.
Just when Qin Hao was about to walk out of the imperial city, a shout suddenly came from behind him.
"Commander Qin stays."
Qin Hao turned around and frowned slightly: "If Commander Yan wants to have a discussion, please forgive Qin because he is on official business and cannot accompany him."
"Although Yan really wants to compete with Commander Qin again, that's not why he's here today."
"The eldest princess invites you."
Qin Hao's heart moved, the eldest princess Li Yunrui, this crazy woman is not an easy person to deal with.
"Qin is busy with official duties, so I'd better pay my respects to the President Princess next time."
Seeing Qin Hao about to leave, Yan Xiaoyi hurriedly caught up a few steps and lowered his voice and said: "Don't Commander Qin want to know who killed Lin Gong?"
"Isn't Lin Gong killed by a spy from the Northern Qi Dynasty?" Qin Hao paused and said in a deep voice.
"Why should Commander Qin pretend to be confused? Lin Gong went to Si Lili's flower boat that day?"
Qin Hao suddenly laughed: "So, the eldest princess must see Qin? Then lead the way."
Afterwards, the two of them went to the harem one after another.
The golden glazed tiles shine softly and luxuriously under the sunlight, and the raised corners of the eaves are like phoenixes spreading their wings. Walking on the path paved with bluestones, the golden radiance interweaves with the surrounding green bamboo shades to create a warm and tranquil scene.
screen.
In the rippling blue pond, several lotus flowers stand gracefully, and the breeze blows, bringing wisps of fragrance, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.
Stepping into a circular arch, Yan Xiaoyi suddenly stopped, bowed towards the pavilion with a white curtain in the garden and said, "Your Highness, Commander Qin is here."
A soft voice came from the pavilion: "Well, you go down first."
"Yes." Yan Xiaoyi gave Qin Hao a warning look as he passed by.
Qin Hao ignored him at all and began to enjoy the scenery of the garden.
In the pavilion, the eldest princess sounded a little dissatisfied: "Commander Qin, why are you so rude when you meet me?"
Qin Hao pretended to be surprised: "Your Highness the Princess is talking to Qin?"
"Is there a third person named Qin here?" the eldest princess said angrily.
Qin Hao cupped his hands and said, "If Your Highness Princess has nothing else to do, please forgive Qin for being busy with official duties and I won't bother you any more."
After saying that, he made a gesture to leave.
"stop!"
After a sweet shout, a woman dressed as a palace maid flew towards him and hit Qin Hao's chest and throat with two palms from the air. The palms were filled with gusts of wind. If it were an ordinary person, he would definitely die from this blow.
But in front of Qin Hao, it was not enough. Qin Hao just raised his palm lightly and pressed it on the opponent's abdomen. Then the palace maid screamed and flew back directly, breaking the curtain of the pavilion. The face of the eldest princess
also revealed.
It has to be said that Li Yunrui, this crazy bitch, really has a bit of charm left in her. She is dressed in white and has a graceful figure. No wonder the prince is obsessed with her.
"Presumptuous!" Li Yunrui shouted loudly with a livid face.
Qin Hao sneered: "Your Royal Highness, Qin is a fourth-grade official personally appointed by Your Majesty. She is a palace maid with no rank or rank. She suddenly attacked Qin. Shouldn't Qin be allowed to fight back? Or should we say that Her Highness the Princess specially sent
Is she here to assassinate Qin?"
Li Yunrui was speechless. He took a few deep breaths before he suppressed the anger in his heart and put on a gentle smile, but there was a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.
"It seems that my Majesty is not strict anymore. Commander Qin, please take a seat."
"Thank you, Your Highness Princess."
Qin Hao sat down opposite Li Yunrui without ceremony.
Li Yunrui put his trembling hands under the table and said word by word: "I heard that Commander Qin has a close relationship with that manager. Do you know her true identity?"
"As for the Northern Qi spy, Your Majesty already told Qin this morning." Qin Hao said lightly.
A trace of surprise and panic flashed in Li Yunrui's eyes. Qin Hao's answer was beyond her expectation. What made her even more unexpected was that Emperor Qing also knew Si Lili's true identity.
"However, Qin heard from Your Majesty that this matter is a secret in the inspection institute. I wonder where Her Royal Highness the Princess learned about it?"
Facing Qin Hao's rebel army, Li Yunrui was speechless for a moment, and Qin Hao could even hear her swallowing her saliva.
"I also learned about this accidentally. I originally wanted to remind Commander Qin to be careful, but I never expected His Majesty to inform him in advance."
"Oh? So Qin needs to thank Her Highness the Princess?" Qin Haopi said with a smile.
Li Yunrui secretly scolded this little fox for being incompetent. What depressed her most was that she thought she had the opponent's pain point in her hand, but now it turned out to be a useless card.
"Seven days ago, Commander Qin was on Si Lili's flower boat. Did he meet Mr. Lin Xiang?"
"Lin Gongnai was killed by a Northern Qi spy. The whole country knows it. What does he have to do with Qin?"
"Oh, that's right, but I don't seem to believe it from the look of Prime Minister Lin. You said that if I reveal this news to him..."
Just when Li Yunrui thought he had a chance to win, Qin Hao smiled sarcastically.
"Your Highness, Si Lili was a spy from the Northern Qi Dynasty. Lin Gong died on her ship. Why can't this debt be settled on Qin?"
"On the other hand, Your Highness, how did you know that Lin Gong went to Si Lili's flower boat before his death?"
"you......."
Qin Hao was too lazy to continue arguing with Li Yunrui, so he stood up and left. This woman could do all kinds of crazy things, so she was not a partner worth cooperating with.
As soon as he walked out of the garden, Qin Hao's footsteps stopped. Not far away, Yan Xiaoyi had already fully drawn the bow string, and the gleaming arrow had already locked him.
"If you let go, you will definitely die. Qin will not be merciful this time."
Qin Hao's tone contained murderous intent.
Yan Xiaoyi's eyes were filled with red lines, and his anger level had reached its peak. Although he knew very well that with Qin Hao's strength, he could not hurt the other party in such a complicated environment, but he could not tolerate the other party humiliating the eldest princess.
.
"Stop, let him go."
Yan Xiaoyi's eyes widened, and in the end she was unable to lower her hands that were full of bow strings. She could only watch Qin Hao walk away angrily.
"My little incompetence has caused Her Highness the Princess to be humiliated. Please punish Her Highness the Princess."
Li Yunrui waved his hand and sighed softly: "I don't blame you, this kid is a disciple of the great master Ye Liuyun. He can leapfrog to the eighth level and defeat the disciple Yun Zhilan, the leader of the Sigu Swordsman, and the disciple Lang Tao of Ku He. They all say that he is a young man.
Among our generation, the one who is most likely to become a great master."
"It's a pity that it can't be used by me."
Yan Xiaoyi wished she could find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.
"The national war is about to begin. You think you won't care if a few ninth-grade masters die on the battlefield, right?"
Li Yunrui's eyes revealed crazy murderous intent.
........
On the other side, just as Qin Hao expected, Lin Ruofu quickly invited Fan Xian to his home. The guard opened the door and led him in. He happened to meet Lin Dabao, the eldest son of Prime Minister Lin, in the courtyard, so Fan Xian played with Lin Dabao, the eldest son of Prime Minister Lin.
After playing for a while, Lin Xiang secretly observed how the two got along. To his surprise, Fan Xian was very patient with Chier Dabao, and the two got along very happily. This also made Lin Xiang decide to fully support Fan Xian in his rise to power.
Dabao brought Fan Xian to the study to meet Lin Xiang. During the conversation, Lin Xiang took out the calligraphy written by Lin Gong and told Fan Xian that Dabao had an illness when he was a child, and after he recovered, he became like this. Although he has grown up
, but his mind is like that of a young child. Of his three children, Dabao is stupid, Lin Wan'er also suffers from tuberculosis, and only the second child, Lin Gong, is still in good health. Now that Lin Gong has been killed, the Lin family's hope is completely gone.
He now only hopes that Fan Xian and Lin Waner will get married as soon as possible, and the Lin family's property and connections will be handed over to him in the future. As long as he protects Lin Waner and Dabao, Fan Xian said that this is not a deal, because he already has Lin Waner in his heart.
After coming out of the Lin Mansion, Fan Xian had just returned home when he suddenly saw Wuzhu, who had not been masked since they parted ways in Danzhou. When asked where Wuzhu had been these days, he just said that he remembered some things and went to some places.
place.
"Uncle Wu Zhu, what did you remember? Is it related to this box?"
Wu Zhu reached out and touched the box left by Ye Qingmei, with an afterthought expression on his face. It was hard to imagine that a bionic robot could actually show emotions that only humans can have.
"Five miles to the east of the city, Taiping Villa is where the young lady lived."
Fan Xian was worried that someone would notice him if he went directly to investigate, so he planned to invite a few people to go out of the city together in the name of an outing, and then take the opportunity to find the key.
So the next day, the three siblings of the Fan family set off early and walked to the city gate. Lin Wan'er's carriage was already waiting for him. Originally, Ye Ling'er was also in the carriage, but was fed dog food in public by the shameless Fan Xian, so she could only shyly
Ran out.
Lin Wan'er felt sweet in her heart, but also a little shy: "Why aren't you leaving yet?"
"There are still people who haven't come yet." Fan Xian smiled mysteriously.
At this time, the sound of horse hooves was heard outside. Wan'er opened the curtain and took a look. The person sitting in the carriage turned out to be Dabao.
Just when Lin Wan'er thought everyone was here and was about to invite Dabao to leave the city, there was another sound of horse hoofbeats coming from far away.
"Old Qin, you are finally here."
In Versace's carriage, Fan Ruoruo and Ye Ling'er, who had been able to maintain a harmonious atmosphere, suddenly became weird. This made Versace miserable, and finally he could only jump off the carriage and sit in Dabao's carriage.
"How did you come?"
Qin Hao shamelessly got into the Fan family's carriage. Fan Ruoruo and Ye Ling'er were happy in their hearts, but complained on their lips.
"It's a rare day off to take a bath. Fan Xian said you would come too, so I'll join in the fun. Aren't you welcome?"
"Hmph, who wants to welcome you?" Ye Linger snorted.
Fan Ruoruo said with a bright smile: "Welcome, there are so many people and it's so lively."
Ye Linger gave Fan Ruoruo a sour look.
Soon, the convoy arrived outside the city, and the group started playing around by the lake. Qin Hao casually put two fish on the fire and started roasting them.
The aroma of grilled fish quickly attracted two foodies, Dabao and Versace. Seeing this, Fan Xian gave Qin Hao a wink.
"Brother Qin, just eating fish is a bit too monotonous. Let's go get some game."
