It turns out that the prisons of the Imperial Guard are divided into men and women. Ding Kui only found out when he came here.Δ『
The women's prison is a two-story bluestone room on the ground floor. It houses female prisoners from the palace, the royal family and their relatives, and is guarded by specialized female jailers.
The men's cell is underground, and the floor, ceiling, and surroundings of the women's cell are reinforced with steel plates. Without a light, you can't see the light inside. It is not exposed to the sun all year round. If you stay here for a long time, your eyes will definitely not be able to bear the strong light.
Both the men's and women's prisons are heavily guarded, and everyone entering and leaving must go through layers of inspections, and Ding Kui's entry is no exception.
Commander Huben has the right to investigate the private lives of jailers and prison officers, but he must abide by the rules of the prison when entering the prison. The airs of a superior are not effective here, and you may one day become a prisoner from a superior.
After passing five levels of checkpoints, Ding Kui came to an interrogation room and saw a disappointed Shaodian Mi opening the door to greet him.
"What? You can't even ask me anything?" Ding Kui knew it wouldn't be good news.
"Sir, the thief actually has a 'violent poison' on his body. Just now he was bitten by a poisonous insect and his heart veins were severed and he died." Shaodianmi said in a very helpless tone.
"Violation Gu? What is that?" This was the first time Ding Kui heard this name.
"That is a kind of Gu insect that is extremely difficult to cultivate. We currently only have more than a dozen of them. Unless people in important positions go on a mission, we will not waste them on them."
There are not many "Violation Gu" in the spy department, and only a few people know of its existence.
"With such a professional, are they from Cao or Qi?" Ding Kui thought about the two countries that had the greatest hatred against him abroad.
"Judging from the facial skin, this thief has lived in the grassland for a long time. We cannot completely rule out the possibility that he was sent by the Northern Empire." Shaodianmi shouted towards the door, "Fang Qingguo, come in and tell your Majesty what you have discovered.
"
Fang Qingguo, the owner of the medicine sect, walked quickly into the interrogation room.
"Your Majesty, Commander, Sir, after careful inspection of the poisons remaining on the accident carriage, it was found that the gas-melting water and the soul-eating smoke were found. The raw materials of these two poisons were produced respectively in the extreme northern ice sheet and the southern dense forest, located in the central part of the continent.
The kingdom generally does not use it." Fang Qingguo has extensive knowledge of poisons.
"One south and one north, so the whole continent is possible. The plans of these spies are very thorough, and even the details are not missed." Ding Kui was annoyed and helpless. Some people tried their best to deal with him.
No one would be happy to hear this news.
"It seems like this on the surface, but my subordinates believe that assassins cannot do without the four countries in the north and south. Although Qi Melting Water can be bought at a high price in Lu State, it is also easy to trace the source. The same is true for soul-eating smoke, both of which are
If you buy it, we can trace the source and eventually find out the identity of the assassin." The spy chief had different opinions.
"Guyuan Empire can be ruled out. Ji Chan is my good friend. The princes vying for the throne will not take the risk of offending me and then offending Ji Chan. The alignment of the Demon Prince of Nanping will affect the ownership of the throne.
My country is our country's friend, and they have no reason to assassinate me. I am the eldest princess's consort, and I am somewhat related to my country's royal family. It would be unreasonable to attack a relative.
The Meng Kingdom was the first one I eliminated. If they want to take action, they won't send these people here, then only the Tongbei Empire will be left." Ding Kui eliminated the three countries according to his own ideas.
"But if you think about it more deeply, Jiguo, Mengguo and Tongbei Empire cannot rule out suspicion.
Although our country is an ally of our country, our prince Ji Man enthusiastically pursued the eldest princess when he was in the capital. Whoever can marry the eldest princess is likely to be the future king's brother-in-law, and it doesn't matter if he is from the country.
, people who are friendly countries may influence the domestic situation.
Meng knows that ordinary spies can't do anything to you, but they can also send them to frame other countries to confuse our sight, and maybe sow discord between our country and other countries. They can afford this sacrifice.
The Guyuan Empire is about the throne. What tricks can those princes use? Who can figure out the secret lurking in the hostile camp, whose purpose is to anger the Demon Prince of Nanping? No one can figure out who is really behind the scenes.
The master of.”
Shaodianmi's mentality is very dark and he can think of any nefarious purpose. In his eyes, everyone is suspicious.
"Master Fang, is there anyone in the country who can cultivate the 'Gu' against one's will?" Ding Kui estimated that the Gu was a poison, and the Medicine Sect should be responsible for it.
"It stands to reason that it cannot be cultivated. Some resources are only in the hands of medicine families."
As expected, Fang Qingguo is in charge of cultivating the "violating Gu", and cultivating Gu is what the Fang family is best at.
"Then concentrate our efforts on investigating the four countries of the north and the south. We must not let go of any clues." Ding Kui was not careless about the enemy who dared to send assassins.
In mid-August, when it was the hottest time in Zhenjing, a team from the Ding family's old residence arrived at the Protector's Mansion in the dust.
"My poor concubine Long Yan pays homage to your husband." Long Yan's mood was a bit complicated when she saw Ding Kui again. She was excited, happy and uneasy at the same time.
"Please get up quickly." Ding Kui opened his arms to help Long Yan, "Thank you for your hard work at home. You have been in charge of the family for the past two years."
"This is a poor concubine's duty. She should not be rewarded for her hard work."
"You have a poor concubine and a poor concubine. You don't need to be so formal at home. You and I can match each other. You don't feel tired when you say it, but it sounds awkward to me." Ding Kui pulled Long Yan to a chair and did it.
"Oh, I listen to you." Long Yan felt warm and settled in her heart.
"Ding Xiao (Yugui, Biya) pays homage to the master." Three maids came forward to pay homage.
"Well, next you have to help Mrs. Ru take care of the backyard. There are many things to prepare before the engagement ceremony. Don't keep Mrs. Ru busy."
With the arrival of these few people, Ding Kui solved half of his worries. He could ignore the matters in the backyard at all. The women in the family could indeed hold up half of the sky.
When Long Yan first arrived in the capital, he had to go to Duke Wei's mansion with Ding Kui. Moreover, he was pulled by Mrs. Long Kun and stayed alone at Long's house for one night. Ding Kui could only go home and wait.
When Long Yan came home the next day, Ding Kui immediately asked: "What did my mother-in-law say to you?"
"Well, it's nothing, you just told me how to treat the eldest princess, and not to compete with the eldest princess for favor." Long Yan is not as shy as before, and she no longer blushes when talking about things between men and women.
"What's going on? We won't get married until at least two years ago. Isn't it too early to talk about this now?" Ding Kui is most unhappy when others interfere in his affairs. No one else can control who he favors or not.
"I am a descendant of a collateral line. It is normal for my godmother to give more instructions. I didn't follow so many rules in the palace at home. At that time, my eldest brother was responsible for everything. By the way, how is my eldest brother now? He is in the military.
Is there anything you're not used to?" Long Yan missed Long Tan very much.
"He is very smart. There is no need to worry about him. Can I treat my uncle badly? I gave him a lot of military honors during the war. In a few years, he will be promoted to the level of division commander." Ding Kui
Understand the relationship between the two brothers Long Tan and Long Yan.
"I know he has always wanted to overtake you again, but has he given up now?" Long Yan thought of her brother with a smile on her face.
"Good guy, you are very ambitious. I was not harsh enough to deal with him at the beginning. I will make sure he has a longer memory next time."
Ding Kui has never suffered a loss against Dragon Calm, but he nominally lost one game during the national competition, and he has never defeated Dragon Calm in any official event since then.
"Don't be childish like him. There are only a few people in the family. I need you to support the Ding family as soon as possible. You can't just follow your temper like before." Long Yan knew that her brother had suffered a lot at the hands of her husband.
"You, the Long family, like to protect your shortcomings. By the way, next time, give the measurements of your clothes to Long Shuang to see how many Void Crane feathers it takes to make a feather armor."
Ding Kui had no relationship with Long Yan before marriage, but Long Yan was his first woman, and he would leave a share of any good things for Long Yan.
After Long Yan asked what the feather armor was, she was surprised and said quickly: "No, no, no, you can't give me such a valuable thing. Only the eldest princess is worthy of wearing the feather armor."
Ding Kui waved his hand and drove everyone out of the house, then crowded around Long Yan and asked: "I heard that the king granted me a marriage, are you dissatisfied? There is no one else here now, tell me honestly."
Long Yan avoided Ding Kui's gaze, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Who do you want me to be dissatisfied with? The king? All fathers in the world want to find a good son-in-law, and there is nothing wrong with the king.
Is it to blame that you are too good? Which woman in the world would think that her husband is too good? You did not fight bravely on the front line because you wanted to marry the eldest princess. Is there anything wrong with a man who fights for his family, his country and his life?
Let other women share my husband with me. To be honest, I really feel uncomfortable in my heart, but after thinking about it, I can't think of anyone to blame. When I married you, my family said that I was a concubine. Sooner or later, you
I will marry another wife.
The reputation of the eldest princess is known all over the world, and it goes without saying that she has a noble status. Rather than letting another woman share you with me, I would rather that person be the eldest princess. Even if I lose, I will be convinced."
Ding Kui couldn't restrain himself and kissed Long Yan's red lips.
The two were separated when they were newly married, and it took more than two years. Now that they meet again, the longing in their hearts suddenly bursts out, and they have been lingering for a while.
After getting excited, Ding Kui hugged Long Yan and said: "Following me may not be a good thing, but I will try my best to be good to you. Feather armor and other things are just external things. You can buy them back with money, not to mention that you deserve it."
This thing.
The eldest princess, I heard that she is not very tall. I think the feathers of the Void Crane are enough to make two feather armors. One for you, one for her, both of them have it. We don’t have that many rules in our family. If there are good things, we can share them together.
share."
"Well, I listen to you." Long Yan was almost melted by Ding Kui at this time, and she didn't care about what her godmother told her.
Two hundred personal guards of the Protector of the State came to the capital to protect Long Yan. The guard force of the Protector of the State was greatly strengthened, and Qiu Qiu led the guards back to the clan mansion.
