Chapter 41 Water Snake Tattoo
April 20th, Yuelai Inn.
In an ordinary guest room on the third floor facing the street, a man stood in front of the window, outside of which was the bustling street scene of East City.
He is not tall, very thin, with fair skin, small eyes, thin lips and a pointed chin.
After a while, he said to the man behind him with an unhappy look: "The East Market of the Imperial Capital is nothing more than this."
The man was in his forties, thin and capable. His eyes rolled around, his back hunched, his head lowered, and he didn't dare to answer.
"Once my southern army has razed this place to the ground, I will rebuild an imperial capital on the ruins and turn it into the most prosperous city that never sleeps in the Shenzhou Continent."
Xiao Yifei raised his pointed chin, and his small eyes stared at a certain place like an eagle, radiating greedy light.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince is a genius! He is a great hero of our Great Southern Nation!"
The man fell to his knees and started flattering her.
Xiao Yifei's expression then eased a little.
"Get up, Boss Wu, you've worked hard."
Wu Yong is the chief spy sent by the Southern Country to the Eastern Country. His current identity in the Eastern Country is the owner of a silk and satin shop in the East Market.
Wu Yong stood up and said flatteringly:
"When does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince plan to meet Chu Tianxing?"
"Not urgent."
Xiao Yifei narrowed his eyes and said, "Chu Tianxing is nothing to worry about. He will consider his own interests and cooperate with me. But that Chu Tiancheng...why is he not dead yet?"
"I have spent a huge amount of money to invite the hidden weapon king from Shenzhou Continent. Isn't his hidden weapon already embedded in King Yan's head?"
"Yes, it was embedded. We bribed a doctor from the Imperial Hospital, and he was there when the group was examined for injuries."
"Then why are you still alive?"
"According to the imperial physician, the diagnosis at the time was that he would not live more than three months. His death date would be the end of May."
"It's been too long." Xiao Yifei said impatiently.
"What's his weakness?"
Wu Yong bowed and replied: "The King of Yan never has a weak spot..."
After a pause, he asked carefully, "Does the Princess of Yan count?"
"You mean the country girl who just returned to the imperial capital from Mobei? Hahaha..."
Xiao Yifei let out a deafening laugh, as if the whole world was drowned in his laughter.
Wu Yong seemed a little embarrassed. He realized that he had just said something he shouldn't have said. He quickly shut his mouth and stood there with his head down, not daring to move.
The atmosphere became extremely tense.
"How could Chu Tiancheng agree?"
Xiao Yifei was suspicious by nature, and the more he thought about it, the more outrageous it seemed to him.
"Take me to meet the future Princess Yan tonight."
"Yes." Wu Yong hurried to prepare.
At the second watch, Taoran Garden.
Qin Rubing was leading the members of the "Special Agent Group No. 9" for a night training under the grape trellis.
Tonight's training content is wilderness survival training.
At this time, training on holding breath in water is being carried out.
If Qin Rubing really wants to follow Prince Yan to fight, he must bring this nine-member team with him.
We must improve everyone’s individual combat capability as quickly as possible.
Zhu Shijie was free, so he came to visit again.
He leaped onto the roof and looked down. The yard was empty.
He concentrated and held his breath, searching carefully, and felt a breath surging under the grape trellis.
However, the grape trellis is covered with lush branches and leaves, completely covering the area underneath.
He was feeling depressed when he suddenly saw two dark shadows flying towards him from the northeast at an astonishing speed.
Zhu Shijie quickly hid in the dark.
Two masked men in black were crouching on the top of the wall, and one of them took out a small crossbow, ready to shoot arrows into the window.
Zhu Shijie flew into the air and threw a "mist pill" in the air.
Xiao Yifei was quick-witted and quick-handed. He held his breath and dodged.
Wu Yong had no time to react and was hit directly, falling off the wall.
Seeing that the person was coming too fast, Xiao Yifei was afraid that he might have a trick up his sleeve, so he turned around and ran.
Zhu Shijie did not chase after him, but picked up the unconscious Wu Yong, jumped onto the roof, and after a few jumps, entered the Prince of Yan's Mansion.
Qin Rubing heard a thud, as if something fell to the ground.
She motioned for Yoruichi to crawl out from under the grape trellis to check.
Ye Yi didn't see anything in the yard. He climbed over the wall and saw a red figure floating away to the south. He thought it was just Zhu Shijie coming to make trouble again.
When Qin Rubing heard the report, she thought that Zhu Shijie was making trouble again, so she rolled her eyes and continued training.
After the night training, Qin Rubing called everyone into the pharmacy to talk one by one.
The conversations were very short and only focused on one thing. She and everyone agreed on passwords and secret codes.
Prince Yan's Mansion.
After listening to Zhu Shijie's report, Chu Tiancheng immediately asked Yan Er to interrogate Wu Yong overnight.
Wu Yong was an old spy who had been lurking for many years, so he would never confess. He also kept shouting that he was innocent, saying that he was just a petty thief who went to steal things.
Yan Er used torture but didn't get anything useful out of him.
Early the next morning.
After listening to Yan Er's report, Chu Tiancheng found no flaws and prepared to release Wu Yong.
Song Que just came over to take Chu Tiancheng's pulse, and he had an idea.
Half an hour later, Yan Er brought Song Que to the dungeon of the palace and said to Wu Yong:
"The prince has found a doctor to treat your wounds, and then he will let you go."
Wu Yong was still very cautious in his heart, but on the surface he was very grateful to Yan Erqian.
Song Que checked Wu Yong's wound, applied medicine, and performed routine bandage.
He didn't say a word to Wu Yong the whole time.
After handling the matter, Yan Er ordered his subordinates to escort Wu Yong out of the house.
When I turned around, Song Que had disappeared.
After coming out of the dungeon, Song Que trotted all the way to King Yan's study.
When he saw Chu Tiancheng, he said breathlessly: "That man is a spy from the Southern Kingdom."
Chu Tiancheng winked at Yan Yi, who understood and immediately arranged for Yan San to follow Wu Yong.
"Dr. Song, please speak slowly."
Chu Tiancheng personally poured a cup of tea and handed it to Song Que.
When Chu Tiancheng saw Song Que just now, he thought of the Southern Kingdom.
Considering the current tense situation, we have to take strict precautions.
So he sent Song Que, who was familiar with the situation in the Southern Kingdom, to meet Wu Yong, under the pretext of treating his injuries, and to conduct further examinations.
Song Que took the tea respectfully, took a sip, and said, "When I was treating his wound just now, I saw a water snake tattoo on his lower back. That is the symbol of the secret guards of the Southern Kingdom's Crown Prince's Palace."
On his way from the Southern Kingdom to the Eastern Kingdom, Song Que was chased by people from the Prince's Mansion. Naturally, he recognized this terrifying symbol.
After a pause, he continued, "This man can speak fluent Oriental dialect. If I am not mistaken, he should be a spy sent by Xiao Yifei to lurk in the imperial capital for many years."
When Chu Tiancheng heard Xiao Yifei's name, his expression immediately became serious.
"Yan Yi, invite Zhu Shijie here."
After Zhu Shijie arrived, he described the physical characteristics of the other masked man in black in detail to Song Que.
"That person's Qinggong is also very good, and his speed is not slower than this prince." Zhu Shijie added.
Song Que thought for a moment and said decisively: "This person is most likely Xiao Yifei."
what? !
Zhu Shijie was the first to shout: "Xiao Yifei? The Crown Prince of the Southern Kingdom? How dare he murder the little princess?"
