The hour of Hai. The He family mansion.

He Fugui, Han Yijian and Yan Er had already returned to the He family's small house.

Yan Er received a message from Chu Tiancheng via carrier pigeon, and returned with He Fugui.

Qin Rubing opened it and took a look, then handed it to Zuo Qingyun and He Fugui.

It read: "The Southern Emperor is critically ill. Princess, please find a way to save his life. He cannot die now."

He Fugui nodded after reading it and analyzed: "Your Highness is right, if the Southern Emperor is alive, the situation in the Southern Kingdom can still hold out for a while.

Judging from the current situation in the Southern Kingdom, Crown Prince Xiao Yifei is now the only one in power, and no other prince can compete with him.

Although the Southern Emperor is now seriously ill and bedridden, as long as he is there, the Southern Kingdom will not collapse immediately.

Xiao Yifei can only be a prince forever.

The Eastern Kingdom is bound to fight a tough battle with Xiao Yifei.

We must use various methods to weaken Xiao Yifei's power, but this takes time, so the Southern Emperor cannot die for the time being.

Let him live a little longer.”

Qin Rubing saw that Zuo Qingyun had not spoken, so she asked, "Mr. Zuo, what is your opinion?"

Zuo Qingyun pondered for a moment and said calmly: "I agree with the prince's opinion."

Qin Rubing's eyes flashed with determination. She turned to look at Yan Er and said firmly:

"Bring the map. It looks like we have to go to the palace ourselves."

Yan Er did not dare to delay for a moment. He quickly took out a finely drawn map of Yuncheng and carefully spread it out on the table.

This map details the streets and alleys, palaces and various important locations in Yuncheng, just like a miniature city painting unfolding before your eyes.

Qin Rubing leaned over to take a look, gestured with her fingers, and then curled her lips and smiled:

"The location of our house is really good. It only takes one stick of incense to go back and forth from here to the palace."

He Fugui also burst into laughter.

"Thank you for the compliment, Princess! The He family will definitely support His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan with all their strength!

As long as it is something you need, whether it is gold, silver, treasures, food, horses, or any other items or information, just open your mouth.

I will immediately arrange for someone to make careful preparations to ensure that everything is prepared according to your requirements.

Princess, shall we start the operation tomorrow night?"

His eyes revealed a firmness and determination, and he seemed to be fully prepared to engage in the upcoming battle at any time.

"Why wait until tomorrow night? I'll go now." Qin Rubing walked out.

"Hey, hey, hey, Princess, don't worry. We have to make some arrangements. Who will go with you?" He Fugui shouted from behind.

Qin Rubing glanced at him and said in surprise, "Isn't it just to see a doctor? It's not like I'm going to rob the palace. I can go by myself."

Zuo Qingyun snapped the folding fan in his hand shut and suddenly said, "I'll go with the princess."

"No need to go through so much trouble." Qin Rubing continued walking out.

"At least I can be your guide. It won't take more than half an incense stick to get from here to the palace. But once inside the palace, are you sure you can find the emperor within an incense stick?"

Zuo Qingyun said slowly from behind.

He Fugui also interrupted and said, "The Southern Kingdom's palace is very big. I heard it is twice as big as Changqiu Palace."

Qin Rubing thought, with "Xiao Yu" here to operate the navigation, why does she need a real-life guide?

However, from the perspective of He Fugui and others, she had just arrived in the Southern Kingdom, so how could she find someone in the palace so quickly?

So she pondered for a moment and nodded to Zuo Qingyun.

At three quarters of Hai hour.

Two dark shadows rushed past on the streets of Yuncheng.

Zuo Qingyun's lightness skill is also very good, and he can move very fast at night.

Qin Rubing quietly drove at 0.75 times the speed, otherwise it would be too tiring to keep up.

Now Zuo Qingyun's speed was reduced, and Qin Rubing could barely keep up with him.

Zuo Qingyun turned his head and glanced at Qin Rubing beside him.

She was wearing a black nightgown and a black veil, revealing only a pair of bright black eyes.

Her hair was simply tied into a ponytail, hanging long behind her.

He also carried a black backpack on his back.

He didn't expect that Qin Rubing's lightness skills had improved a lot recently and she could even keep up with his speed.

After a while, they arrived near the palace.

Zuo Qingyun took Qin Rubing and walked around the palace wall for a while, then stopped at the base of a wall.

"Let's climb up the wall from here." He whispered to Qin Rubing.

Qin Rubing looked around and saw that this place was relatively secluded, so she nodded.

Zuo Qingyun tiptoed and jumped onto the palace wall.

Qin Rubing looked up at the palace wall that was more than three meters high, and directly took out a grappling hook for climbing over the wall from the space.

The hook of this thing is made of metal structure and the rear end is connected by a strong hemp rope.

She skillfully used her wrist to gently swing the hook towards the top of the wall, hooking it silently and tightly.

Then, she pulled the hemp rope and climbed up to the top of the wall in two or three seconds.

When she reached the top of the wall, she retracted the grappling hook and put it in her backpack.

Zuo Qingyun made a jumping gesture to her, and the two of them jumped from the wall into the palace together.

Zuo Qingyun took him to a simple eunuch's residence nearby.

He knocked gently on the door and an old eunuch came out.

The old eunuch squinted his eyes and looked carefully for a long time, finally recognized it was Zuo Qingyun, and hurriedly opened the door to let them in.

When they got into the room, the two men whispered a few words, and then the old eunuch took out two sets of eunuch uniforms.

Zuo Qingyun handed a set to Qin Rubing. She walked into the inner room and put on the eunuch's clothes over her nightgown.

After changing clothes, the old eunuch led them towards the palace.

The old eunuch walked steadily and with a serious expression, as if he knew the palace well.

He walked at the front, and Qin Rubing followed closely behind Zuo Qingyun.

Her steps were light and cautious, and every step seemed so careful, as if she was afraid that the slightest sound would break the peaceful atmosphere.

They moved silently around the palace, as if they were in a mysterious and solemn world.

The surrounding buildings are towering and majestic.

The flowers, plants and trees in the courtyard are trimmed neatly and orderly, which is beautiful beyond words.

Every detail shows the majesty and luxury of the royal family.

After a while, they arrived outside the emperor's bedroom.

The Nandi's chambers were located in a magnificent palace, surrounded by high walls and tight guards.

Each entrance is heavily guarded by soldiers wearing gorgeous armor and holding sharp weapons, always on guard.

The door of the bedroom was closed. It consisted of two huge and solid stone doors, which were carved with exquisite patterns and mysterious symbols.

Two tall and mighty guards stood in front of the door. They had serious expressions and sharp eyes, and would not miss any suspicious signs.

The old eunuch took the two of them to a place five steps away from the gate and stopped.

Qin Rubing looked up and thought: How come the Southern Emperor doesn't look critically ill at all?
