The sedan hall of the Hou Mansion is spacious, and outside the hall, a young eunuch is guarding the carriage.
In the hall, Aunt Ying went over the matter a few more times. After thinking about it carefully, the old female officer still shook her head, "I have never heard of it at all. When Emperor Taizu was the emperor, this matter was supervised by internal officials. I was the one who died two years ago.
A senior brother is in charge."
Cao Xiwan nodded quickly.
No, she hasn't asked Yingying yet. A patient like her would go out to fight in the middle of the night just to please them and get some information.
The eunuchs who used to be the eunuchs in the inner-official prison were Nannan and Dongdong among the Seven Demons of Tianshan, and they were in charge.
Of course, this is a nickname as well as a pseudonym. Perhaps only Taizu knows the real names of the Seven Demons of Tianshan. And their pseudonyms are Yingying, Yanyan, Kaikai, Nannan, Dongdong, Xuexue, and Jianjian.
This seems like a particularly careless pseudonym.
When Xuexue was later transferred to the East Palace, she actually became more and more well-behaved and even changed her name to Bai Hua.
"My senior brother and others, the dead soldiers who followed you to kill Duke Liang are no longer there. I have never heard of these eunuchs who arranged masters to do fine work. But there are ordinary fine work, Wu Laodang
keep it."
When Grandma Ying said this, she suddenly realized, "Last time you checked Niu Zijin in the palace, was it because of this?"
"..." Cao Xiwan thought that Liu Ruhai might not really be a craftsman sent by His Majesty. But there is another possibility.
Even Yingying doesn't know about this.
Maybe only His Majesty knows?
Cao Xiwan saw off Nanny Ying and returned to her home in the back alley. She dug out a secret grid from her room. In the grid were the relics of Fu Quan, the ex-husband of Miaolian Temple.
In addition to the fragmentary information that she had burned long ago, it was written that Zhan Baidao and other remnants were in Guanshan. There was actually a list. She checked it and found that the list contained the names of the eunuchs, royal guards, and stewards of each prince's palace. Only thirty people were not included in the list.
arrive.
She had been wondering if they were just being careful and could assassinate the feudal king at any time.
She thought about it, copied a copy of the list with her left hand, rolled it up and put it in her sleeve pocket. Then she burned the original copy. She had already memorized it.
The dead Fuquan felt sorry for Master Miaolian, but he was His Majesty's confidant in the palace. Does this list need to be returned to Your Majesty?
She was hesitant. She originally thought that there would be more than this list, otherwise it would be too easy for Li Guogong to capture the Zhou people. Except that the Zhou people's second son betrayed his father, it must be because there was an insider in the palace. But she still had a question.
:
On this list is Liu Ruhai's name.
He is definitely not a royal guard, nor does he seem to be in charge. Is he really a eunuch?
But it is also possible that these people were not secret agents, but were bribed by the feudal princes, and were the plotters or accomplices of the princes in their rebellion.
As soon as she handed over the list, Liu Ruhai was dead.
She walked out of the room, stepped on the snow under the jujube tree, and sighed softly.
She was so kind to Liu Ruhai, too good to say anything. He must repay the favor. If he dared not to be a scapegoat, she could label him a traitor. This is the benefit of being a Jin Yiwei.
Of course, she has resigned from her post and is a rare kind-hearted person in the yamen. This matter can still be discussed.
She made plans, had the list in her sleeve, and left home to return to the Marquis Mansion, when she unexpectedly met Qin Meng at the west corner gate.
"Eh? Qin Baihu?" She was about to go find him.
"We need to double the patrol in the back alley, come and take a look." He also had an accident, "The young lady is coming into the house?"
The two chatted and laughed, and entered the Hou Mansion through the corner gate together.
She pretended to go to the inner house and spied Qin Meng walking up the corridor to the outer study. Knowing that he would come back after seeing the Marquis of Nankang, she quietly turned around and ambush him in the small room.
Less than half an hour passed.
When Qin Meng came in alone, she rushed out and greeted him with the Eighteen Fascinating Styles. Qin Meng instantly put his palms together and let out a Buddhist lion's roar, which made her ears numb.
The Eighteen Styles of Ecstasy has been broken.
It is indeed the authentic Buddhist mentality!
When he thrust out both fists, he saw clearly that it was her, and he suddenly withdrew his attack: "Young Lady!?"
She had already fluttered up to avoid this attack, and behind her, the west wall of the small duty room fell down with a crash.
The secret whistle fans appeared and were surprised when they saw it was her. Qin Meng waved his hand slightly, and the fans were relieved and retreated together.
Qin Meng looked at her. She lowered her head to take out the handkerchief and dipped it in orange-scented medicated oil to wipe her ears. He went out to the corridor and spoke a few words to Shun Baoer, who had been sent by the Marquis, before he came back.
Cao Xiwan put away the handkerchief and felt that his ears no longer seemed numb. There was medicine in the orange sesame oil, and the smell was refreshing.
She dusted herself off and charged the cost of the repair to her account. After thinking about it, she imitated Liu Ruhai and said confidently, "Just stand there and don't move. I'll hypnotize you."
"..." Qin Meng was stunned. He asked her what she wanted to do and her Eighteen Ecstasy Movements. He laughed and said, "It probably won't work for me. This is an external demon. I have been chanting scriptures and practicing since I was a child.
, the inner demons can be eliminated, and the external demons cannot enter. At least I have the power to fight back. I will not be attacked quietly."
Having said this, he repeated, "I have seen it with my own eyes, Mr. Liu is indeed not a eunuch."
While he was talking, he thought for a moment and took out a yellow-white Buddhist bead tied with a fine thread net from the collar around his neck. She smelled a strange aroma, which made her mind clear.
"Relics," he said.
She was surprised, weren't these human bones? Qin Meng's habit of carrying human bones with him was a bit scary.
But she is a fastidious person, and she never looks at her colleagues strangely. Everyone has some strange hobbies, such as visiting cemeteries. Why should she look at them in a scary way?
This is not good.
Moreover, this relic is a very rare treasure. She squinted and saw that thin threads were woven into a small net, carrying the relic. The thin threads looked platinum-gold, and it looked like a treasure. It was unusual, and she was surprised.
: "Is it Tiansi?"
"Um."
"..." She was reserved and did not show any signs of being motivated by wealth.
Qin Meng was now understanding and took it off his neck: "Want to wear it? My master gave it to me. I can't give it to you, but I can lend it to you for a few days."
"Huh?" She couldn't understand, and subconsciously touched her face, her salivating expression revealed?
Qin Meng smiled euphemistically: "Recently, your father has been following me from time to time. Is that why?"
Hmm???!!!What is he talking about?
Is her father following Qin Meng?
Is there something strange going on that she doesn't know about yet?
Cao Xiwan had just confirmed that Qin Meng would never be tricked quietly and that Liu Ruhai was not his father-in-law. The next moment she was shocked by the fact that Cao's father was following Qin Meng and thought he would not be discovered.
Is her father stupid? What does he want to do?
Qin Meng is the third killer in the Jinyi Guards. He can kill her father with a backhand.
But it wasn't over yet. Qin Meng pulled her to the darkroom door of the duty room and whispered: "I heard that King Zhao has raised an army."
She was startled, but not surprised: "...want to rebel?"
"Um."
"...Did the Marquis order that all the spies be killed?" she asked subconsciously. She touched the list of names in the secret pocket in her sleeve. Originally, she wanted to discuss with Liu Ruhai that if he wanted to escape, she could arrange a way for him to leave the capital.
But he was the only one to escape, and all the other gang members were handed over and killed.
