"Sister?" The woman wearing a veil was a little surprised when she saw the woman in red robe approaching. She took off the veil on her face, revealing her extremely beautiful face.
"I just happened to have something to do and came back today!" The woman in red robe said softly: "Is that person just here looking for you?"
The woman in white took the hand of the red woman and sat on the swing together: "Sister, didn't you say a few days ago that there was a centurion missing from the patrol team outside the palace? He wanted to climb up a little and take out a hundred kilograms of inferior products.
Yuan Shi, I promise to let him improve.
This man is from the Yuchi family, his name is Yuchi Zhengde, he has been in the position of team leader for a long time, and he can be promoted, so I will make a hand cart and pick up some things on the way."
"Yu Chi Zhengde?" The woman in red robe did not have this person's name in her mind: "Then you can do whatever you want!"
The woman in white looked at her sister's face with some sadness on her face and asked, "Sister, what's upsetting you?"
The woman in red robe shook her head: "It's nothing to worry about. Your Majesty asked me to send people to keep an eye on Prime Minister Li, but my people can't get close to Prime Minister Li at all!"
"Li Xiang, the governor of Liangzhou? Doesn't he only have one powerful grand master, Taoist Priest Qingsong? Sister, you have two powerful grand masters under your command. The other party should be unable to do anything to you!"
The woman in red sighed: "It would be great if Mr. Li only has one great master to protect him. According to the information from our two factories, the master of the Ji Mo Sect should join the northwest. The disciples of the Ji Mo Sect have all become Xiliang at this time.
A member of the army!
Li Xiang is not protected by one great master, but by two great masters!"
"This is one of the reasons why Your Majesty is so fond of Prime Minister Li. Gaining the support of Prime Minister Li means gaining the support of two great masters."
A flash of understanding flashed in the eyes of the woman in white. It turned out that there were two great masters beside Li Xiang. There were two masters, one responsible for protection and one responsible for pursuit.
The woman in red continued: "At the same time, Li Xiang has made a breakthrough, and he should be a strong master at this time.
When Li Xiang was a first-class master, he could already fight with a strong master. Now that he has become a master, no one knows his fighting ability."
"Li Xiang can fight with the masters at the first-class level!" The woman in white couldn't believe it: "The masters can mobilize the power of heaven and earth. How can Li Xiang fight with the masters if he can't mobilize the power of heaven and earth!"
"Prime Minister Li does not rely on the power of heaven and earth!" The woman in red squinted her eyes and said, "The most powerful thing about Prime Minister Li is his body. His body is so powerful that he can even fight against ferocious beasts with his body!"
"With his physical strength, maybe he can fight with the great master at the master level!" The woman in red sighed: "No one thought that the person who acted as the messenger back then would have such an achievement.
If possible, I really want to take him to the imperial prison and let those guys take a closer look at Prime Minister Li's body structure or see the techniques he practices!"
The woman in white heard what her sister said and ordered her to go to prison. This place was the most terrifying place for people like them who came from outside the territory.
As long as you enter the prison, it won't take long for your secrets to be discovered clearly!
She relied on the method of turning around and being reborn, and with the help of a treasure to hide it from the current family members. For more than ten years, she has been practicing silently in the family territory. She is very well-behaved and will not show anything special.
place.
Because her talent was very high and her cultivation reached the first-class level, her family allowed her to leave the family territory and come to the imperial capital to follow her sister.
Her sister was six years older than her. When she was ten years old, her sister left the family and came to the imperial capital to assist the emperor, who was still the crown prince at the time.
"Sister, listen to what you said, did you know Li Xiang before?" the woman in white asked curiously.
Li Xiang is very likely to become their opponent. The opponent is rising very fast and has a huge army. They want to enter this world. Once people in this world know about it, these people will definitely unite.
Li Xiang is a well-deserved vanguard. If you want to defeat the enemy, you must understand the opponent well.
Reminiscence flashed in the eyes of the woman in red: "Well, at that time, I was with him in the East Palace, but he was just an ordinary guard at that time, responsible for helping the prince deliver orders to the Li family.
I remember that at that time, he liked Hu Qingqing. Later, something happened to Uncle Guo and a direct descendant of the Li family. The late emperor blamed it and had no choice but to let Li Xiang take the blame. This is how Li Xiang came to the northwest."
The woman said with a smile: "I wonder how Hu Qingqing feels when he knows that Li Xiang has returned to his younger brother's capital!"
"It turns out that he has such a story!" The woman in white said: "Hu Qingqing is probably coming back from the demon clan!"
Hu Qingqing and the woman in red were in charge of two departments respectively when the emperor was still the crown prince. Now they are the two leaders of the two factories, but they are the leaders behind the scenes.
The woman in red said: "She's back. She'll be back the day after tomorrow, but this time she's the oiran of Zhaixinglou!"
"The oiran of Zhaixinglou, this identity is very suitable for her charming skills!" said the woman in white.
"Hahaha, that's right!"
As the two leaders of the two factories, the woman in red and Hu Qingqing had a lot of overt and covert fights.
It's nothing to hurt each other.
"Then the day after tomorrow, let's go to Zhaixing Tower together and take a look at this courtesan?" the woman in white suggested.
"Are you going to embarrass her?" The woman in red smiled: "Send someone to talk to Li Xiang again. I find it interesting to think about the changes in their identities when she and Li Xiang meet again!"
"She also had a good impression of Li Xiang back then, but unfortunately there was an extra uncle Guo. Even now, Li Xiang and his uncle Guo are still at odds. A few days ago, she even made a push for someone to assassinate Li Xiang.
Mutually."
"This is a good show, we have to watch it carefully when the time comes."
...
Under the moonlight, on the rugged river, more than a dozen brightly lit flower boats slowly approached the imperial capital.
Flower bow.
A maid walked to the bow of the ship with a cloak. There was a girl on the bow who was wearing white clothes and had a plain appearance. She just had a pair of eyes that made people look at her and have an unforgettable feeling. She quietly looked at the bright white moonlight in the sky.
"Miss, be careful of catching a cold." The maid thoughtfully put the cloak on the woman.
The woman looked back and said: "I am already a first-class warrior, how can I catch a cold?"
"The lady is looking at the moonlight, but who are she thinking about?" the maid joked.
The woman in white said calmly: "I am thinking about how to complete the task assigned by His Majesty."
The maid smiled and said: "Isn't that simple? As long as you reveal your true face, miss, those reckless men who know how to fight and kill all day long will not be able to draw their swords for you!"
In the eyes of the maids, my young lady's appearance is even more beautiful than the queen's. During the time of the demon clan, those beauties from the demon clan were not even one ten thousandth as good as the young lady.
"By the way, this is the information you are collecting about Li Xiang. I asked someone to bring some from the West Factory and reorganize it." The maid took out a large stack of papers.
"Li Xiang~" A figure appeared in Baiyun woman's heart, showing the loneliness, helplessness and confusion she felt when she was driven out of the Daqian Imperial Capital.
The maid said: "Xiang Li is now the governor of Liangzhou. He is in charge of Zhangye County in Liangzhou and Jiuyuan County in the northwest. He has hundreds of thousands of troops under his command.
The masters have Dao Master Qingsong from the Taoist sect, the Ji Mo Sect from the Ji Mo Sect, two great masters, and several master masters from the Zhao family in the northwest."
"He is considered a strong person among Prime Minister Li." The maid looked at the young lady with the information: "His Majesty is also trying his best to win over Prime Minister Li, not only for the two great masters under Prime Minister Li, but also for the hundreds of thousands of people under his command. The army, the troops under Prime Minister Li are extremely powerful, especially the Xiliang headquarters army."
"It's developing well." Hu Qingqing said with a smile: "To be able to have such a powerful force in just a few years, have you investigated clearly who is standing behind him?"
The maid shook her head: "Many forces are investigating, but no answer has been obtained. The Xiliang headquarters army under my command is like jumping out of a stone. It has been born out of nowhere and followed Li Xiang to fight outside the Northwest Pass for several years. Taking advantage of the opportunity The land in the northwest was attacked by ferocious beasts, and the Zhao family's army had to enter the northwest because of its lack of resources in the grasslands."
"After entering the northwest, the army of Xiliang headquarters suddenly increased like locusts. Under the leadership of Prime Minister Li, they were invincible. They were invincible and captured the northwest land in one fell swoop. Prime Minister Li used the captured soldiers to The water channels outside the pass are connected to the water channels inside the pass.
The Xiliang Navy, which was originally in Xuanshui Lake outside the Pass, entered the Tongtian River. Since then, the Xiliang Navy has also entered a situation that is out of control, and is now the second strongest naval force in the Great Qin Empire.
According to intelligence, the Xiliang Navy's troops should have tens of thousands of troops and hundreds of warships. In the event of a war, the Xiliang Navy can probably assemble a hundred thousand troops."
It was the maid who told all the information about Xiliang.
"It's a pity, I don't know why His Majesty doesn't let you communicate with Mr. Li!" The maid looked at the young lady with a sideways smile: "With your charm, young lady, why didn't you just wave and Prime Minister Li came rushing over?"
"The eighth princess is now married to Prime Minister Li." Hu Qingqing said calmly: "The eighth princess has passed away. If we still can't take down Prime Minister Li, is it useful for me to go there?"
"Don't think too much about your little head." Hu Qingqing nodded the maid's forehead: "Go back and get ready. Tomorrow I will be the most beautiful girl."
"Okay!" The maid walked back with a smile.
Hu Qingqing turned the information in his hand into ashes with one palm.
.....
"My lord, the fourth young master of the Li family, please come to the Zhaixing Tower to gather." Cheng Jushu walked in with an invitation letter.
Li Xiang glanced at the invitation and said, "Zhaixing Tower? Am I the type to go to that kind of place?"
Cheng Jushu was a little confused: "Where is the Star Reaching Tower?"
He followed the Jimo Sect disciple who was doing the exchange and said: "It is a place similar to Yihongyuan, but this Star-Zhaing Tower is generally only accessible to major courtesans. If you want to enter the fourth floor, you will have to spend money if you don't have literary talent or fame. It takes a hundred taels of gold to go up!"
"A hundred taels of gold?" Cheng Jushu said in surprise: "Are those women made of Yuanshi? So expensive!"
Cheng Jushu shut up immediately after saying this. This place is not far from the backyard. If the mistress finds out, she will give herself some bedside breeze and she will not be able to cool off!
"Lord, I will go out and reject them right away!" Cheng Jushu said as he was about to throw away the invitation.
Li Xiang smiled and handed over the invitation: "It's a waste to throw it away. This invitation can go directly to the fourth floor. Wouldn't it be better to sell it? This invitation can probably be sold for one hundred taels of gold, whatever.
Find someone from the Chamber of Commerce and give them this invitation letter, and they will help you sell it!"
Li Xiang has no interest in these fun places anymore. If he has time, he might as well take his wives to the city to see the beautiful scenery at night!
Yating and Duoduo have never seen the night view of the imperial capital. They are busy with military affairs and usually run around when they have time. They did not take a walk or have fun with them.
He planned to take this opportunity to take a good look at the beautiful scenery of the imperial capital. After leaving this time, he didn't know how many years it would take before he could come back.
This is also his hometown, he was born here!
Cheng Jushu happily went out with the invitation letter after hearing this. Li Xiang said helplessly to Cheng Jurong: "Jurong, go ask the old lady and the others if they would like to go out for a walk in the evening!"
"Yes!" Cheng Jurong turned around and entered the backyard, and came back soon.
"My lord, the old lady said that she has seen too much of the beautiful scenery of the imperial capital. She will take care of the young master at home in the evening. Miss, you can just take the madam and the others for a walk."
"Um!"
....
That night
The Imperial Capital is much more lively at night than during the day. The lights are brightly lit, illuminating the darkness in every corner of the Imperial Capital. Imperial City Division and Imperial Guards are everywhere in the Imperial Capital.
Even if there is darkness, it is royal darkness, allowing civilians in the imperial capital to come out and play at will without worrying about being beggars or other people who kidnap and traffic children.
If you want to do this in the imperial capital, you need to face the Imperial City Division, the two factories, and the Forbidden Army. These departments are suppressed by great masters. If something goes wrong, they will take action.
No one can face these great masters at the same time and do these things in front of these great masters. This is not taking these great masters seriously!
This was so severe because the first child of Emperor Taizu of Daqian was abducted by beggars living in the sewers of the capital of Dazhou, which was not the imperial capital of Daqian at that time, but was kidnapped and raped.
Break your limbs and become a begging tool for those beggars.
Taizu Daqian later retrieved the child and spent a lot of resources to restore the child to normal. Knowing the rats hiding in the sewers, he did not do anything, but trained the child to become a strong man with a golden body.
An organization called Judgment appeared, and they massacred the beggars. At first, they only targeted those beggars hiding in the city.
These beggars are not because they have no hands or feet, they are just lazy. In order to get more money, what they like to do most is to kidnap and sell children. If they can sell them, they will sell them.
If it cannot be sold, its limbs will be broken and become a begging tool!
The criminal organization expanded with the expansion of the Daqian Dynasty. Every time the Daqian army captured a place, they would kill the beggars in that place.
Later, Juan Sui started to take action against the homeless people who had lost their land and became beggars before he was stopped. Then he slowly retreated, but a few decades ago, Juan Sui reappeared.
This time it appeared because of Buddhism. With the help of the Judgment Organization, Emperor Daqian was able to force Buddhism into the yellow sands of the Western Regions in such a short period of time.
After appearing for a while, this organization disappeared again, but all the major forces were very cautious because this force belonged to the royal family!
