As soon as he finished speaking, a figure knocked open the door and was thrown out, hitting the five people at their feet.
This person was the man who had just entered. At this time, the man's face was pale, his pupils were dilated, his breath was weak, and he looked like he was about to die.
"What's going on with you guys? For Yin Fu's sake, this princess is kind enough to take you in. Is this how you repay me?"
At the door, a 6-foot-tall, plump, round-faced woman stared at the men outside with narrowed eyes.
The man in the red Taoist robe, Taoist Yin Fu, raised his hands to the woman and said: "Your Majesty, please forgive me, we managed to escape from the death row. Our energy has not recovered yet, so we are a little unable to do what we can. But please, Princess."
Don’t worry, they will satisfy the princess in a few days.”
Hearing Yin Fu's words, the woman's expression softened, "Okay, I'll come back to you in a few days and I'll have someone prepare some supplements to replenish your vitality. Don't let me down."
"Thank you, County Master, for your understanding."
Yin Fu and the four of them saluted the woman.
"Okay, that's it. I'll leave first. If you have any needs, just ask Dan'er and she will arrange it for you."
The woman said and left in a hurry.
After waiting until the woman's plump figure could no longer be seen, Yin Fu said to a maid who stayed aside: "Miss Dan'er, there is something I want you to help me with."
"Taoist Master Yin, please speak."
"Pindao wants Miss Dan'er to find out who Fang Pingzhi met on death row before he died."
"This is a simple matter. The Taoist Priest is waiting for my news."
Dan'er smiled softly and walked outside.
"Taoist Master, are we going to stay here forever?"
Someone couldn't help but ask.
"In the entire Youzhou City, this is the only place that can protect us. If we don't stay here, why don't we go out and seek death?"
Yin Fu asked back.
"But if we continue like this, even if we don't die outside, we will die in the hands of the princess. If she makes us practice in the furnace every day, even a tough man can't last long."
Yin Fu frowned, feeling the waves of weakness in his body, and said hesitantly: "No matter how hard it is, you have to endure it first. When the wind blows over, we can take action again."
······
In a restaurant outside the Zhenbei Palace, Niu Xiaosheng and Li Qingqing were sitting by the window on the third floor, looking in the direction of the Palace.
"The king of Zhenbei has five sons and four daughters. Among them, Princess Huaiyu, the eldest son and the third son are all children of the princess. The eldest son Qin Yi is dignified and quiet by nature, knowledgeable in words and deeds, and likes to read, while the third son Qin Xi is the opposite.
, hates literature and loves martial arts, is cunning and ruthless by nature. As for Princess Huaiyu, I heard that her reputation is not very good. Except for these three siblings, the other three sons and three daughters are all concubines and are not in the mansion now. "
Li gently whispered about the information inside the palace.
"You mean it was these three siblings who took in those prisoners?"
"The possibility is very high. The King of Zhenbei himself has been hunting down the Lord of Beikun Mountain and is no longer in Youzhou. Besides, the only people in the palace who can make the decision are these three people besides the princess herself. The possibility of the princess is unlikely. Then
These three siblings are the only ones left."
"Then who do you think is the most likely among these three siblings?"
Li Qing pondered for a while, "I think Qin Xi is the most likely. He has always coveted the position of the crown prince. In order to expand his power, he has accepted many disciples. It is not impossible to take in Yin Fu and others."
Niu Xiaosheng turned his head and looked at the palace. The entire Zhenbei palace was enveloped by a large formation, isolating the inside and outside. Even if he used his eyes and ears, he would get nothing.
"How about we pass the news to the government and let their people investigate. Maybe there will be some unexpected gains."
Li Qingqing suggested.
"That's okay, this matter is originally a government matter, we are just assisting."
Niu Xiaosheng nodded, thinking that he could let people from the government office get involved. He was not afraid of disturbing the situation and startling the snake. The snake was already frightened when Fang Pingzhi died. Now that the water has been muddied, it will be beneficial to him.
"Qingqing, do you know if there are any places Qin Xi often goes to on weekdays?"
"Yes, every few days, he will go to the military camp outside the city."
"Well, if you want to keep an eye on him for me, let me know when he goes out."
Niu Xiaosheng planned to go back to retreat for a few days to completely visualize the left ear of the visualization diagram, and then go to meet Qin Xi.
Although he didn't know what Niu Xiaosheng had planned, Li nodded lightly.
After the two separated, Niu Xiaosheng returned home, told Zhen Yun not to let anyone disturb him in retreat, and then returned to his room to concentrate on practicing.
In the blink of an eye, three days passed.
Zhenbei Palace.
Yin Fu has always felt a little uneasy these days, especially about Fang Pingzhi. There has been no news back yet, and he feels even more uneasy.
Logically speaking, with the methods of the palace, there should not be no news for so many days, so he went to his maid Dan'er and said, "Miss Dan'er, I wonder if the matter that Pindao wants to investigate has been found out."
"This thing sounds strange. It seems that someone deliberately concealed the situation that day, and since yesterday, there have suddenly been many informants from the Governor's Office around the palace. I suspect it is their fault."
Dan'er was also very upset about this matter. If the princess knew that she couldn't even handle such a small thing, her status would be in jeopardy. She gritted her teeth and said, "Don't worry, Taoist Priest, I will bring you the news tomorrow."
"
"Thank you so much, Miss Dan'er."
Yin Fu forced a smile and said.
He was now certain that the people in the government office knew that he was hiding in Zhenbei Prince's Mansion, and it was not advisable to stay here for a long time until he could find a way to get the princess to take them out.
On the other side, after three days of hard work, Niu Xiaosheng finally visualized the left ear of the visualization diagram completely, and gained the ability to communicate with other minds in Buddhism.
He walked out of the room and said to Xiaoman who was guarding outside: "Has anyone come to see me these days?"
"without."
Xiaoman shook his head.
Hearing this, Niu Xiaosheng breathed a sigh of relief. What he was most afraid of was that while he was in retreat, Qin Xi went out and missed the time.
After he took a bath, he was going to go to the Supervisory Office to take off his vacation.
On the way, I happened to meet Li Qingqing.
"Sir, Qin Xi is out!"
Li Qingqing panted.
Niu Xiaosheng's eyes lit up and he pulled her towards Jian Tiansi.
After meeting Fan Rumeng, Niu Xiaosheng directly told him the reason for his visit.
"What? You want me to take you to see Qin Xi?"
"Yes, I'll leave this matter to my uncle. I am humble and humble, so I'm afraid I won't be able to meet the second young master of Zhenbei King."
"Okay, let's go."
Fan Rumeng didn't ask why, and asked someone to bring over three scaly horses, and then chased Qin Xi in the direction of leaving the city.
