I opened the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 178 My Wife’s Connections

We looked in the direction where the white-robed swordsman disappeared, our hearts full of gratitude and admiration. The white-robed swordsman was like a flash of lightning, helping at the critical moment and repelling the assassin, and then left like the breeze, leaving only an unforgettable back. Zhu Di straightened his clothes and said solemnly: "It is not advisable to stay here for long, let's return to the Qianqing Palace quickly."

Back in the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Di sat in the main hall with a frown on his face. His eyes were deep and worried, as if he was thinking about the huge crisis hidden behind this series of events.

Yueying hurried over, bowed and said, "Father, this secret organization is coming with such force, I am willing to share your worries with you and Brother Xiangtian."

Zhu Di raised his head slightly and looked at Yueying, with a trace of relief in his eyes: "Ying'er, you know that this matter is of great importance. If you are not careful, it will endanger the safety of the court."

Yueying looked determined, took a step forward and said, "Father, I understand. But I have some experience in the martial arts world, and I believe I can get some useful information with the connections I made in the past."

Zhu Di pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Ying'er, since you are so determined, then be careful. Don't be impulsive and reckless. Put your own safety first."

Yueying nodded solemnly, her eyes firm and clear: "Don't worry, father. I will be cautious and fulfill my mission."

Zhu Di sighed lightly, his face full of worry: "I believe you, but you must also remember that the conspiracy behind this may be more complicated and dangerous than we imagined."

Yueying responded, "I will remember your father's teachings and investigate carefully without missing any clues."

I sat in Shoukang Palace with a heavy heart, while the ladies sat around me.

Chunhua spoke first: "My husband, when I was wandering around the world, I met a retired boss of a escort agency. Although he has retired, he has many old subordinates scattered all over the place. If I ask him for help, I will be able to find out a lot of news about the world." As she spoke, she looked at me with a firm and warm gaze, her hands gently resting on my arms. She had a graceful figure, exquisite curves, and was full of vitality.

Xiaoling then said, "Husband, I know an intelligence dealer who knows many unknown secrets. I have contacted him." As she spoke, she approached me, her eyes full of affection and concern, and she slightly twisted her slender waist, revealing her delicate look.

My sister said, "My husband, I used to be good friends with an antique dealer. He had a wide range of friends and was able to learn a lot of secrets of the powerful from the transactions of various rare antiques." As she spoke, she looked at me lovingly, gently stroking her hair, and her graceful figure was like a willow swaying in the wind.

The princess said, "My dear, I am an acquaintance of the wife of a famous martial arts master. Through her, I can ask that master to come out of seclusion and help us." She folded her hands in front of her and nodded slightly. Her plump figure looked dignified and majestic.

Lu Xiaofeng said in a delicate voice: "Husband, I once had a friendship with a hermit in the martial arts world. He knows many secrets of the martial arts world. I have written to him to ask for help." She smiled sweetly, her eyes were charming, her waist swayed gently, and she was full of charm.

Li Lili said gently: "My husband, I know a patriarch of a scholarly family, and his family members are spread all over the court and the world. I have asked him to help inquire." As she spoke, her eyes were as gentle as water, and she gently stroked my shoulder. She had a slim figure and elegant manners.

Xi Shi said softly, "My husband, I am acquainted with the owner of a music hall. People in the music hall often go in and out of the places of dignitaries and can hear a lot of news." Her beautiful eyes were eager, her lotus steps moved lightly, and her graceful figure was like a fairy descending to the earth.

Diao Chan said charmingly, "My husband, I have made the acquaintance of a gambling house owner. He has many friends from all walks of life. I have asked him to help keep an eye out for them." Her eyes moved, and she leaned towards me coquettishly, her figure graceful and full of temptation.

Chang'e said softly: "My husband, I once met an elder from a sect of immortal cultivators, and I am going to ask him for help in the investigation." Her eyes were clear and firm, and she bowed slightly. Her figure was slender and light, like a fairy in the moon.

Chu Liuxiang said cheerfully: "My husband, I know a famous thief who knows many underground information channels. I have persuaded him to work for us." She patted her chest generously, showing a unique charm, her posture agile and full of strength.

Qingzhao said firmly: "My husband, although I don't have a wide network of contacts, I am willing to make friends with scholars through poetry and obtain useful information for you." She stood dignifiedly, her eyes revealing wisdom, and her graceful figure was filled with a bit of bookish air.

Finally, Yueying said slowly: "My husband, I not only have the financial support of Shen Wansan, the military assistance of Senior Zhang Sanfeng, but also the intelligence from the chivalrous sisters. I have also met the abbot of Shaolin, Wujing, several times. Shaolin has many disciples who are righteous. If I ask, they will definitely help me. I have a deep friendship with the head of the Emei Sect. All the Emei disciples are highly skilled in martial arts and can also help my husband. My love for my husband is deeper than the sea and higher than the mountain. I am willing to give everything for my husband, even if I die. I will die without regrets if I can be with my husband in this life!"

As she spoke, she moved closer to me, her eyes full of affection and determination. She had a graceful figure and elegant temperament, like a blooming orchid.

In the following days, Yueying took action without stopping. She first wrote a letter to Shen Wansan to explain the seriousness of the matter.

After receiving the letter, Shen Wansan immediately mobilized his business intelligence network and began to pay attention to abnormal capital flows in various places.

At the same time, Yueying sent the young eunuch Erlengzi to Wudang Mountain, the wimp to Shaolin, and the idiot to Emei...

Xueqi sat at the desk, her black hair cascading down her shoulders, her eyes fixed on the stack of intelligence documents in her hands.

Her slender fingers gently flipped the papers, her brows slightly furrowed, as if she was looking for hidden clues in the densely packed text.

Sometimes she bit her lower lip, lost in thought; sometimes her eyes flickered, as if she had discovered something. The sunlight shone on her through the window, reflecting her focused and beautiful silhouette.

Everything around her seemed to be quiet, with only the slight sound of her flipping through papers and her serious look, as if she and this mysterious information were the only ones left in the world.

Xiaoling was leaning over a huge map, holding a red pen in her hand, carefully marking the messages that had come in.

Her eyes were focused and determined, and she didn't even bother to wipe away the beads of sweat on her forehead. She pursed her red lips and moved her slender fingers quickly on the map, making each mark precise and powerful.

Sometimes she stood up and walked around the map in thought; sometimes she leaned over and looked closely at the map, as if she wanted to engrave every corner in her mind. Her serious attitude seemed as if she was drawing not a simple mark, but a blueprint for everyone's fate.

Chunhua sat among a pile of keepsakes, her eyes sharp as an eagle, her hands fiddling with the objects quickly and methodically.

Each token was carefully examined in her hands. She observed the patterns and symbols on it, trying to decipher the hidden information from them. The sunlight shone on her, outlining her neat outline. Her expression was serious and focused, and the strands of hair on her forehead swayed gently with her movements.

Occasionally, she would stop, frown and think for a moment, then continue with her intense analysis.

Feimei sat upright on the chair, tilting her head slightly, listening carefully to the discussion of others. Her eyes were gentle and focused, with a slight smile on the corner of her mouth, and her gentle appearance made people feel like spring breeze.

Whenever someone put forward a new idea, she would nod gently to show her agreement, or frown slightly and fall into a brief period of thought.

Her soft voice was heard at the right time, and she offered her own unique insights. Although her voice was not loud, it always hit the point. She exuded a quiet and intelligent temperament.

Gege sat at the table with her back straight, carefully recording the clues on the silk. She held the brush in her right hand, writing smoothly and beautifully.

Her eyes were focused and solemn, and she wrote meticulously, as if she was completing an extremely important mission.

Beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, but she didn't bother to wipe them off and devoted herself to the recording work.

The sunlight shone through the window onto her, illuminating her focused expression, making her look particularly moving.

Lu Xiaofeng stood in the middle of the room, his arms folded across his chest, his eyes moving between the crowd.

She had a confident smile on her face, her mind working quickly, connecting the seemingly unrelated clues. She paced and stopped from time to time, and each movement was free and easy.

The sunlight shines on her, outlining her graceful figure. Her clever and witty appearance seems to be able to see through everything, making people full of expectations for her.

Li Lili moved lightly around the room, holding a tray with exquisite tea and snacks in her hand.

Her steps are light and her posture is graceful, like a blooming flower.

Her face was filled with a gentle smile, and every look in her eyes was full of care. She handed the tea to everyone one by one, her movements were gentle, for fear of disturbing everyone's thoughts.

As she was busy, her hair was a little messy, but this did not affect her beauty at all, but instead added a bit of real charm.

Xi Shi sat quietly by the side, holding the pipa in her hands and playing it softly. Her eyes were thoughtful, and beautiful melodies flowed from her fingertips. Her figure was graceful and picturesque.

The sunlight shines through the window onto her, as if she is covered with a golden gauze. Her every move is full of grace, and every note seems to be telling her inner thoughts.

In this tense atmosphere, the sound of her pipa was like a clear spring, bringing a sense of tranquility and inspiration to everyone.

Diao Chan sat at the table, holding a brush, concentrating on drawing a possible relationship diagram of the characters on paper.

Her eyes were focused and determined, her eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and her cherry lips were gently pursed. Her fingers were long and slender, and the posture of holding the brush was graceful and moving.

Sometimes she stopped to think, and sometimes she quickly sketched the lines. She looked so serious as if she was creating a masterpiece.

Her hair fell on both sides of her cheeks like silk, swaying gently with her movements, adding a bit of charm.

Chang'e stood quietly in a corner of the room with her eyes closed. Her face was as calm as water, and her hands were slightly raised, as if she was sensing the surrounding atmosphere.

Her figure was light and graceful, like a fairy descending from the earth. The air around her seemed to flow with her breathing, exuding a mysterious atmosphere.

Her eyebrows occasionally trembled slightly, as if she was trying to catch some obscure clues. The sunlight shone on her, outlining her graceful curves, giving people a sense of otherworldly beauty.

Chu Liuxiang paced back and forth in the room, mumbling something. Her eyes were filled with anxiety and concentration, and her hands kept gesturing. Her steps were vigorous and powerful, and her skirt fluttered with her movements.

Sometimes she stopped, put her hands on her hips, and thought for a moment; sometimes she continued to pace, frowning, as if trying to sort out complicated clues. Her energetic figure brought a tense and hopeful atmosphere to the whole room.

Qingzhao sat quietly at the table, with a messy pile of papers in front of her. Her eyes were focused and calm, and the brush in her hand rustled on the paper.

Sometimes she would stop, gently bit the pen and think; sometimes she would write quickly, organizing everyone's findings and analysis into a clear and organized document.

Her hair was neatly combed back, revealing a smooth forehead, and she looked so serious that she seemed to have forgotten everything around her. The sunlight shone through the window onto her body, reflecting her focused silhouette, which looked particularly peaceful and beautiful.

As everyone was busy and tense, the atmosphere in Shoukang Palace was like a taut bowstring. The candlelight flickered in the breeze, illuminating everyone's solemn and focused faces.

At this time, the moon in the night sky quietly hid in the thick clouds, and the entire palace was instantly shrouded in darkness. In this darkness, a black shadow suddenly appeared at the door of Shoukang Palace like a ghost.

At first, no one noticed the existence of this mysterious black shadow. Until a gust of cold wind suddenly blew, causing the curtains in the hall to flutter wildly. The moment the wind stopped, everyone was surprised to find that there was a figure at the door.

It was a person who was wrapped in black, with no part of his body exposed from head to toe, as if he had merged into the darkness. He stood there quietly, without making a sound, but exuding a chilling aura.

Our eyes were instantly attracted to him, and the tense atmosphere instantly reached its peak. Niu Lili subconsciously tightened the hilt of the sword in her hand, leaned forward slightly, and made a defensive posture. I couldn't help but straighten my spine, and my heart rose to my throat.

The man in black slowly raised his head, his exposed eyes flashing with strange light. His voice was low and hoarse, like an echo from hell: "I have brought a piece of news, a piece of news that can overturn everything."

Everyone waited with bated breath. The entire Shoukang Palace was so quiet that one could almost hear each other's heartbeats...
