Chapter 280: The Unknown Secret of the Sixth Prince
Mrs. Lan came up to greet her with a look of joy on her face.
"Madam, Your Majesty drank a little too much today..."
Feiyu wanted to continue, but Qin Shaobai stopped him.
"Madam, although it is almost midsummer, the night is still wet. Madam is waiting for me in so few clothes. I am really touched."
Mrs. Lan had never seen the Sixth Prince talking to her so kindly, and his eyes were filled with moisture.
She quickly came to support Qin Shaobai: "Your Majesty, I have to go out and prepare some sobering soup. Why don't you, Your Majesty, come to my room?"
Only then did Qin Shaobai wake up.
The woman in front of him was not Xiaolan, and he was not the Sixth Prince in his eyes.
"Today, I am a little tired, and I still have some things to discuss with Feiyu. Madam, you should go back to your room to rest first. I will visit Madam again tomorrow."
Although Mrs. Lan looked unhappy, she was also wary of the Sixth Prince's temper.
Even though he was looking so nice now, he might say something wrong that would make the man in front of him furious, and he might even draw a knife to kill him at any time.
Mrs. Lan could only bend slightly, give a blessing, and slowly walked into the room with the help of the little maid.
"My lord, you usually treat Mrs. Lan with a cold shoulder, but you suddenly changed your attitude..."
"I understand. But has the Sixth Prince really never given this woman a good look? She looks so pitiful."
"The Sixth Prince will only ask Mrs. Lan to be called to his room after he returns from the General's Mansion."
There was a hint of sympathy in Feiyu's eyes: "Every time Mrs. Lan goes there, she is very happy, but every time she comes back, her face is full of tears."
"Feiyu, I see that you are very sympathetic to Mrs. Lan. When the big event is completed, I will petition the Sixth Prince to kill this Mrs. Lan..."
Before he finished speaking, Feiyu knelt down with a plop.
"Your Majesty, Feiyu doesn't dare to have such extravagant hopes."
Feiyu raised his head.
"Feiyu only hopes that the prince will be kind to Mrs. Lan. Either he will give up on Mrs. Lan's thoughts of seeking kindness, or he will treat her as herself."
While the two were talking, a gentle voice came from outside the door: "Your Majesty, Lan'er made some orchid cakes today. Would you like to ask Your Majesty to taste them?"
Qin Shaobai looked at Feiyu.
Feiyu shook his head.
Qin Shaobai tried hard to adjust his emotions and tried to make his voice cold and ruthless.
"No need, I've eaten too many delicacies today, so just give your orchid cake to the maids and boys in the house to eat."
Outside the door, it became quiet.
Then, a soft voice said yes.
The footsteps started again, but this footsteps were slow and heavy, as if they were carrying the same heavy mood of the owner.
Qin Shaobai waited for the footsteps to disappear completely before turning around with a sigh.
"Feiyu, it's late today, you should go back and rest first."
Just as Feiyu was about to leave, Qin Shaobai added another sentence.
"You come here tomorrow morning, and we'll go to the Imperial City Division to have a look."
The next morning, before Qin Shaobai woke up, he heard Feiyu calling him softly outside the door.
He quickly dressed, washed briefly, and opened the door.
Six little maids were standing on both sides, holding toiletries in their hands.
"Everyone, please go down. I have finished washing up."
Unexpectedly, when he said this, the six little maids all fell to their knees.
Qin Shaobai looked at Feiyu.
Feiyu said softly to the six maids: "The prince asked you to go down, but if you don't go down quickly, it is possible that the prince will ask someone to break your legs before you are willing to go down."
The six maids stood up and left in a hurry, as if they had received a pardon.
"In the past, the prince did not know how to wash and dress himself. If any of the serving maids were a little slow, the consequences would be disastrous."
Feiyu said calmly.
Qin Shaobai simply couldn't believe his ears.
He had always thought that the Sixth Prince was a gentle man, but who would have thought that the Sixth Prince in the palace would be so vicious.
"This cannot be blamed on the prince. As the top leader of the Imperial City Department, he must have sufficient deterrence."
When Feiyu said this, the knot in Qin Shaobai's heart was relieved a lot.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go to the Imperial City Department for a walk."
"Your Majesty, you really want to visit the Imperial City?"
Hearing Feiyu's tone, Qin Shaobai seemed to disapprove of him going to the Imperial City Department now.
"Feiyu, do you think it's not time to go to the Imperial City Department yet?"
"Your Majesty is the highest officer of the Imperial City Department, so naturally he can go anytime and anywhere. But..."
"Feiyu, you also know my identity. There is no distinction between us. If you have anything to say, just say it directly."
"Your Majesty, what you said is like Fei Yu has no place to live in. Your Majesty, you are the Sixth Prince. Fei Yu is just one of your subordinates. No matter when or where you are, you can never call Fei Yu a brother."
Only then did Qin Shaobai feel that he was being a little abrupt. He realized that he had not yet adapted to his identity as the Sixth Prince, so he would always consider issues as Qin Shaobai's identity when doing things and speaking.
In this way, it is easy for Shi Miyuan and other officials to see the flaw.
He had to admire Zhao Bai's arrangement. A carefree person like him really needed thoughtful people like Fei Yu around him.
"Feiyu should explain the situation of the Imperial City Division to the prince first. Once the prince is familiar with the current situation of the Imperial City Division, he can decide what to do next."
"Okay, tell me now."
Feiyu looked at Qin Shaobai and said:
"Other people think that the Imperial City Department only serves the emperor. In fact, the Imperial City Department has many powers, the most important of which is to be directly ordered by the emperor to raid homes."
"Searching the house?"
"Yes, when the emperor feels that the presence of a minister threatens him, he will dispatch the Imperial City Department."
"There has to be a reason for raiding other people's homes, right?"
Feiyu glanced at Qin Shaobai coldly.
"The Imperial City Division has a secret department specifically designed to create this reason."
Seeing that Qin Shaobai was silent, Feiyu said again.
"The boss of that department, my lord, you have also met, she is Shi Miyuan's illegitimate daughter Wuchen."
Ignoring Qin Shaobai's increasingly surprised look, Feiyu continued: "Beizhang is the actual executor of that department, and they keep a group of dead soldiers in captivity."
"You mean those poisonous kids?"
Feiyu shook his head.
"Your Majesty is the one who disdains the use of poison. He has a master named Wudu Sanren. He is currently traveling around the world. He has gained 70% of the Wudu Sanren's skill. What he uses is Gu poison."
Qin Shaobai stood up suddenly.
"Those poisonous children in Yonghe Village are indeed not the fault of the prince. The prince disdains to want such a few dead warriors without any skills. What the prince wants is controllable dead warriors with excellent martial arts. Only such dead warriors are valuable.
.”
"You mean, Miss Wuchen, Beizhang and the others are the dead men who were poisoned by the Sixth Prince?"
Feiyu nodded and walked into the inner room.
He gently pressed his hand on the Sixth Prince's bed, and the bed moved aside, revealing an authentic entrance.
Qin Shaobai is really about to collapse.
What's wrong with the people of Song Dynasty? They like to dig tunnels in their homes so much.
"My lord, there is a deeper secret of the sixth prince here. However, there is a monster inside. It only recognizes the prince's breath and obeys the prince's instructions. Anyone else who comes close will be torn to pieces by him."
Qin Shaobai retracted his feet involuntarily.
There was a hint of coldness in the corner of Feiyu's eyes, and he pressed his hand lightly again, and the bed quickly returned to its original position.
"My lord, do you still want to go to the Imperial City Department now?"
Qin Shaobai is thinking.
But I heard someone calling out loudly outside the door.
"Sun Xing came here on the order of General Zhao to invite the Sixth Prince to sit in the General's Mansion."
