Jiang Chen and Yue Qianming were asking and answering questions in the study. Unknowingly, the whole morning passed like this. Someone came to inform the emperor that Yue Qianming should enter the palace to discuss important matters. After Yue Qianming changed his official uniform, , after Jiang Chen and Yue Wujing said goodbye, they took the "The Way of Performing Martial Arts" given to him by Yue Qianming and went back to the palace with them.
After returning to Fengluoyuan, as soon as she entered the main hall, she saw her mother, Xiangming and several deacons and eunuchs packing their bags. She couldn't help but curiously asked: "Mother, where are we going?" Zhao Qin'er greeted her. He came up and said: "Chen'er, today we are moving to a manor on the outskirts of Beijing. It is much more fun there than the inner courtyard of the palace. You will definitely like it."
Jiang Chen was sitting in the car, feeling a little depressed. No matter how much Xiang Ming tried to comfort him, it was of no avail. Zhao Qin'er looked at her son's appearance and said helplessly: "Chen'er, please stop being emotional, okay? Mother promises you a Can you go to the city to meet Xue'er and Ade for a play date within the month? You can also invite them to the manor, that would be great."
When Jiang Chen heard his mother say this, his face suddenly lit up. In fact, he just couldn't bear to let go of his two playmates, Yue Wujing and Yuchide. When he heard his mother agreed to go and play with Yue Wujing and Yuchide, he suddenly became happy. He drove from the west gate. After leaving Feng'an City, we are far away from right and wrong, Zhao Qin'er thought in her mind. There have long been rumors that Zhao Qin'er, as the eldest princess of Zhao Xin's country, should not still be living in the imperial city now. It is inconsistent with etiquette. Zhao Lingyun She has never mentioned these things to Zhao Qin'er, ignoring the gossip outside. However, Zhao Qin'er has heard some of it during these days of contact with the outside world. Taking this opportunity, she talked to her brother about moving out of the imperial city and moving to the capital. Jiao, on the one hand, there is no need for my brother to be embarrassed by these trivial matters, and on the other hand, because of his uneasy mood last night, if something bad happens, it can also prevent these former relatives and friends from being involved in it. No one knows when Tianqi Palace will He discovered Jiang Chen's whereabouts, and it would be convenient for him to escape alone with a few people.
There are mountains and mountains in the distance, and the grass and trees have turned a little green, like a thin grass blanket. The group of people came to a manor that was not very big. Although this manor was not big, it was elegant. It was a mansion that Zhao Lingyun bought before he ascended the throne. It had been idle for many years, but there were people who often maintained and repaired it. Looking at this manor, Zhao Qin'er couldn't help but think of how many people often came here to have fun when they were young. Hunting, but now the things are still the same, but the people are no longer the same as yesterday. He greeted the several deacons and eunuchs who came here with him to unload the things. This was sent by Zhao Lingyun to his sister for daily use. In addition, the original ones stayed here. The few servants of the manor did not seem deserted.
When Jiang Chen came here, everything was new. He had watched the four corners of the sky for seven years. Now the land was vast and the air was fresh. The unhappiness of the future tense was instantly forgotten. Xiangming took Jiang Chen to the residence arranged for him, but he saw the spaciousness The body-training equipment has been placed in the courtyard. Zhao Qiner ordered people to move all the body-training equipment in Fengluoyuan here early in the morning and have already placed them. Some flowers, plants and trees have been planted on both sides of the courtyard. Now It's not yet in full bloom, so I don't know what kind of flower it is. In the evening, a few people finished cleaning up and were about to rest for a while before preparing dinner. However, they heard the sound of frolicking and a servant shouting loudly. At the sound of "Kowtow to you, Your Majesty", Zhao Qin'er smiled helplessly, stood up and went out to greet her.
But they saw a group of four men, headed by Zhao Lingyun, followed by Yue Qianming, Qin Kongyu and Yuchi Zhongming. None of the four men came to this manor alone to see Zhao Qin'er without any attendants. Before they could speak first, Zhao Qin'er took the lead and asked: "It's already this hour, why are you four here?" Then he looked at Yue Qianming and the others and said angrily: "Something happened to my eldest brother, can you three bear it? It's such a big deal. People who do things without considering the consequences." Zhao Lingyun chuckled and said: "It's okay, I asked them to come with me to see if you can adapt here? If not, just come back to the palace with me! Don't worry about those gossips. .”
Zhao Qin'er said coquettishly: "What's wrong with this? I used to live here a lot, and I'm just revisiting my old place. The eldest brother is the one who's worrying me. If any of the officials from the Supervision Department knew that you were out of town at this time, they would have to Too talkative."
Zhao Lingyun said: "I will stay here today. Qin'er, please ask someone to clean up a few rooms for the four of us. We haven't left Beijing for many years. Let's have a good talk tonight."
Zhao Qin'er originally wanted to refuse. She left the imperial city to avoid the troubles, and seeing how excited her elder brother was, she really couldn't bear to spoil his happiness, so she had to ask people to clean up a few more houses and bring out those who came with Zhao Qin'er. These eunuchs originally thought that they were far away from wealth and glory, but they did not expect that Zhao Qin'er was so favored in the king's heart, and they instantly became very motivated and hurriedly took the order and left.
Adding wine to the lamp, recalling the past, when they were young and frivolous, they drank happily and chatted. Several people were already a little drunk. It was not until about four o'clock that everyone dispersed and were taken to the room prepared for them by the servants. .
The next morning, several people completed their own cultivation. After breakfast, Yue Qianming and the other three escorted Zhao Lingyun back to the palace, and then they went about their own affairs.
The manor was also officially renamed Fengluo Villa by Zhao Lingyun. At noon, another servant came to inform Zhao Qin'er that someone outside had been ordered by the emperor to transplant the sycamore tree in Fengluo Garden to the villa. Zhao Qin'er I couldn't help but be touched by my eldest brother's thoughtfulness. My favorite was the sycamore tree in the palace. This tree was planted by my father when I was young, so I ordered someone to transplant it to the front of the palace. In the hall courtyard, after those people planted the sycamore trees, they took down the plaque of the original villa, "Yinyuan", and replaced it with the plaque of "Fengluo Villa" written by Zhao Lingyun himself. The lives of Zhao Qiner, the master and the servants changed again. You have to calm down and practice every day when the sun rises and then when the sun sets.
Time flies by like an arrow shot by an archer with a huge bow. In the blink of an eye, more than a month has passed since the Lantern Festival. Jiang Chen practiced during the day and read the book "The Way of Performing Martial Arts" at night. If he didn't understand something, he asked Zhao Qin for help. Son, Zhao Qin'er knew a little about this. At that time, in order to help Zhao Lingyun master the forces in the army, he read many books like this. Although he had no actual combat experience, he was able to give Jiang guidance from different angles based on his own past experience. Morning one or two.
Compared with the quiet and peaceful Luofeng Villa, there are undercurrents surging in Feng'an City. First, the envoys from the Xia Geng Kingdom came to Beijing and were placed in a post house under the Ministry of Rites specially designed to receive foreign envoys. Everything was done according to Yue Qianming's instructions. The presuppositions were going on, and the Xia Geng Kingdom had already shown signs of loosening, but with the arrival of the Jin Hai Kingdom's delegation, their preset conditions were suddenly strengthened. Moreover, the Feng'an City, which has always had good security, , there have been several cases of assassinating officials of the current dynasty in recent days. Some succeeded, and some were rescued. For a time, the entire Feng'an City was in chaos. Even Jingzhao Yin of Jingzhao Mansion was demoted to the local government. Zhao Lingyun had no choice but to send Yuchi Zhongming to quickly capture the murderer, and could not give the two countries an opportunity at this time.
When Yuchi Zhongming started investigating, he first went to the Xia Geng Kingdom and the Jin Hai Kingdom, because they were the only ones with the most motivation to use these methods. Until someone in the missions of these two countries was assassinated, this time
The incident has escalated again, and there may be another war between the three countries if you are not careful. Although Zhao Xin's country has been fully prepared in the past few years, Zhao Lingyun's layout has not yet been completed. It hastily fought with the other two countries again, and the gains outweighed the losses.
Yuchi Zhongming solves the case within a time limit.
And Yuchi Zhongming also had some tricks. After some investigation, he found that the methods of those assassins were very similar to those rumored to be the assassins from the Dark Moon Tower, the largest and most secretive assassin organization on the mainland. But this time, these assassins seemed to have no clear target, and seemed to just
With the purpose of disrupting the security of Feng'an City, Yuchi Zhongming searched and searched but failed to find any clues.
For a time, all the officials of Zhao Xin's country were in danger, and they kept their guards close to them when they went out. Xia Geng's country and Jin Hai's country even asked Zhao Xin's country to hand over the murderer within a time limit. Xia Geng's country was envoy Zang Lijue.
Although he only suffered minor injuries when he was assassinated, the deputy envoy Li Chengji was almost assassinated. If Yuchi Zhongming hadn't saved him, the situation in the Three Kingdoms would be even more serious now. In the Jinhai Kingdom, although both the chief and deputy envoys were assassinated
experience, but this time the mission was accompanied by experts, so there was no loss. It was just that he was assassinated in another country, and it was related to the country's face. They were unwilling to compromise, so the negotiations could only be shelved, and the security of the entire Feng'an City was
And the defense has been taken over by the Forbidden Army, and Yuchi Zhongming is running day and night to track down the hiding place of the Dark Moon Tower assassin.
Although Dark Moon Tower has a good reputation, it is secretive. It has branches in various states, but no one knows where it lives. It has been about ten days since Yuchi Zhongming took over, but nothing has been gained. That day and night, Yuchi Zhongming
He led the team to inspect Wushafang. Most of the palaces here are the residences of Zhao Xin's officials in Beijing. They are also the most tightly guarded places in recent days. However, there are also loopholes in the tight defense. Yuchi Zhongming inspected to
When he came to the residence of Jia Zhengsheng, the Minister of the Ministry of Finance, Yuchi Zhongming took a quick look with disgust in his eyes. This Jia Zhengsheng relied on flattering Zhao Lingwu to reach the position of the Minister of the Ministry of Finance. This Jia Zhengsheng was only an official in Prince Jing's Mansion before, and later
When he joined the Ministry of Household Affairs, he was treated as a money-making tool by King Jing. It was not until Zhao Lingyun succeeded that he restrained himself a lot. Although Zhao Lingyun investigated a group of forces in Zhao Lingwu's dynasty, he also made some compromises in order not to intensify conflicts and prevent internal strife.
Jia Zhengsheng stayed in the position of Minister of Household Affairs for many years. With Prince Jing protecting him and being as cunning as a rabbit, Jia Zhengsheng had a smooth transition in the past few years.
Yuchi Zhongming has not been ashamed of this person's character for a long time. He also had conflicts when he was young, so he didn't want to stay here longer. When he was about to leave, he heard a slight strange noise coming from Jia's house. There was a child.
A slight cry came out, but it stopped abruptly. Yuchi Zhongming's nerves were very tense these days, and he did not dare to let go of even the slightest disturbance. He quickly used his spiritual power to the limit to carefully examine the things in Jia's house.
There was movement, there was a slight spiritual power fluctuation in Jia's Mansion, and there was a faint smell of blood lingering on the tip of his nose. He immediately ordered the soldiers behind him to quickly surround Jia's Mansion, but he jumped up and fell into the courtyard of Jia's Mansion.
.
The entire courtyard was extremely calm, as if the child's cry was not coming from here, but the smell of blood was even stronger. Yuchi Zhongming did not doubt his judgment. Someone must be injured or dead here. Looking for
The smell of blood, Yuchi Zhongming turned around and looked at the fat body, but there was no sound as he walked. When he came outside a brightly lit room, he twitched his nose. Although the smell of blood was slight, Yuchi Zhongming was sensitive to it.
His sense of smell became even stronger, and he carefully observed the surrounding situation. There was no sound in the brightly lit room, not even the sound of human breathing, but there was clearly a bright light above the window of the room.
There is a figure, who seems to be sitting, with his head lowered and motionless, as if he is looking at something.
Yuchi's bell didn't make any sound, he held his breath softly, and slowly approached the house. Just as he was about to open the door and enter, a black shadow broke through the window and flew out of the courtyard in a few steps.
Yuchi Zhongming didn't care to look at the situation in the house, and immediately used his body skills to chase him out. The fat figure disappeared into the courtyard like lightning, chasing the black figure, and let out three sharp whistles from his mouth.
In the night sky, the Imperial Guard soldiers guarding the gate of the Mansion immediately heard the sound and moved. Following the instructions of Yuchi's bell, they guarded and guarded the surroundings. They saw a black shadow flying out from the courtyard of Jia's Mansion, and thousands of arrows were fired.
, those arrows are also made for cultivators. A simple spirit gathering formation on the arrows is activated the moment they are sent out. A single arrow is of no use to cultivators, but thousands of elite soldiers shooting at the same time are another.
A situation.
When the black figure was distracted to fend off these arrows, Yuchi Zhongming's figure had already chased here. The running spiritual energy gathered between his hands. The hands were covered with golden light and struck at the black figure in mid-air.
, a blow as fast as lightning, the black shadow only had time to avoid its own vital points, and took Yuchi Zhongming's blow solidly, but turned away with the help of Yuchi Zhongming's palm power, and his movement speed was a bit faster.
, Yuchi Zhongming lasted for a moment, Chongqin gathered his spiritual energy and chased in the direction where the black shadow left. The soldiers followed closely, following the traces left by Yuchi Zhongming, and pursued them to the west gate of Feng'an City, and Yuchi Zhongming was already chasing him.
