My bedroom is connected to ancient times, I am in love with the prince

The letter Mr. Guo held in his hand was written by He Yuan, the then Prince of Beirong and now the Emperor of Beirong, to Liu Jiachuan.

The letter directly stated that he accepted Liu Jiachuan's pledge of allegiance in the battle of Luyi Ridge and looked forward to future cooperation.

Xie Beiheng could probably guess something from looking at Mr. Guo's reaction.

"Sir, Guo Xiao is your..."

"Yes... my father!" Mr. Guo held the letter tightly in his hand, his face looking sad.

Xie Beiheng and Xu Chong were both shocked when they heard this!

Mr. Guo is only thirty years old this year. Twenty-nine years ago, Guo Xiao died in battle. So...

"I was only one year old at the time, and I have never seen my father in my life."

"My mother was pregnant and longed for my father's return, but he didn't come back until I was born. It was only later that I received the news that he had died on the battlefield."

Even though they were strong men, the two men in the room had tears in their eyes when they heard such words.

"I never thought that you are the descendant of a hero..."

Mr. Guo had approached Xie Beiheng four months ago, just as the army was returning to the capital. He had expressed his willingness to offer advice to the prince, saying that he was not talented, but if appreciated, he would be willing to become the military advisor of the Zhenbei Army.

When Xie Beiheng heard the visitor's arrogant tone, he met him in person. After talking with him, he found that this person was indeed a brilliant man with far-sightedness in military affairs.

Xie Beiheng sent people to investigate Mr. Guo. Mr. Guo's real name was Guo Zhenmin. He was from Lingzhou Prefecture and had been dependent on his mother, Cheng, since childhood.

The orphan and his widowed mother were weak and the son was young. In order to support his studies, Cheng looked for work everywhere and was almost bullied many times. As a result, the mother and son moved many times and finally arrived in Lingzhou Prefecture, where they could not find his father.

Mr. Guo was a Jinshi but did not seek an official position. According to Xue Cangwei's investigation, it was because his mother Cheng was seriously ill. Mr. Guo could not bear to see his mother travel to Beijing, nor was he willing to let his mother stay at home alone with her illness.

So it was not until this year when Cheng died of illness that he, a commoner, set out on the journey to Beijing.

Following my father's legacy, I wish to spend my life serving my country! With heroic spirit, I vow to avenge my father's death!

"Sir, I have invited you here tonight to discuss how we can use Liu Jiachuan to find the Northern Rong royal family hiding in Beijing, and then bring this traitor who has betrayed his country to justice!"

Mr. Guo suppressed his grief and bowed solemnly to Xie Beiheng, "Sir, I have a plan!"

"The news of your assassination has been circulating for several days. Liu Jiachuan and the Northern Rong royal family must have met and conspired before this, and now they probably won't meet again for a while."

"Why don't we try to lure the snake out of its hole?"

"Sir, please speak!"

"That's easy to say. All we have to do is show up in the capital tomorrow!"

Xie Beiheng's eyes lit up, "What a good plan, sir!"

"If this prince were to suddenly come back to life, their previous plan would definitely be overturned, and they would meet immediately to discuss it."

Mr. Guo nodded and held up another letter. "This one is written in Dayue script. The writer is codenamed 'Wu'. I suspect this letter was written by the Northern Rong royal family hiding in the capital."

Upon hearing this, Xie Beiheng said in a deep voice, "There are two stacks of letters in the secret compartment of Liu Jiachuan's study. To avoid alerting the enemy, this prince only took one letter from each stack!"

"If you fetch both stacks of letters, there will surely be clues."

Mr. Guo shook his head slightly. "Prince, please be patient. As long as we can catch them on the spot, the letter won't be enough for a while."

The letters in the old thief's study were, firstly, evidence of his treason, and secondly, they could be used to find clues about the Beirong royal family.

Now that we can capture them in one fell swoop, there is no need to retrieve the letter at this critical juncture, so as not to alert the old thief.

Xie Beiheng nodded, "Sir, what you said makes sense. Then tomorrow, the Crown Prince will act out a scene of recovering from a serious injury!"

The next day.

Bai's excited crying could be heard from Xie Beiheng's room, "Heng'er, my Heng'er, you finally woke up. Your mother was so worried! Woo~ Woo~"

Not long after the crying sounded, Xie Qinchuan's panicked voice was heard again, "Madam was too excited and fainted!"

"Quick! Call a doctor!"

"Heng'er, Heng'er, you're awake. Your father was very worried about you..."

Soon, the news that Xie Beiheng had woken up from his serious injuries spread rapidly in the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion.

Noon.

Xie Beiheng wore a jade crown and an ivory-white silk brocade robe. He was tall and graceful, with an elegant demeanor. Xu Chong followed behind him. The two of them walked into Yunjin Tower and then went up to the private room on the second floor.

As soon as the door opened, the person inside immediately started cursing, "Xie Qizhi, if you were dead, it would be fine. But now that you're alive, we can't be friends anymore!"

"Do you know how many days it has been since I last went to a brothel to listen to music?"

"Forget it, forget it. Anyway, from now on we are strangers and have nothing to do with each other..."

"Song Xiuming, what are you laughing at? Aren't you angry? Have you forgotten that we were kicked out of the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion?"

Song Lingxin smiled, "Okay, Qi Zhi must have his own reasons, just listen to what he says."

Li Jingsheng glared at Xie Beiheng and said angrily, "Hurry up and tell me!"

Xie Beiheng saw Li Jingsheng yelling loudly the moment he entered the room. He gave him a dark look and then said calmly, "This is about Beirong. Let's lure the snake out of its hole!"

Hearing this, Li Jingsheng glanced at him and asked awkwardly, "Do you want to drink today?"

Xie Beiheng curled his lips, "Drink some!"

Song Lingxin smiled and said, "Then let's have a pot of Bamboo Leaf Green!"

When the food and wine were served, the three of them shook their glasses and laughed.

Li Jingsheng counted the girls he had met and the crickets that had passed by.

Song Lingxin talked about interesting things in the Hanlin Academy and discussed his new works of literature, poetry, painting and music.

Xie Beiheng drank the wine and smiled, his mind flashing with the scene of sword fighting on the battlefield, and... a bright and pretty girl.

After three rounds of drinking.

Li Jingsheng was unrestrained and cheerful, and invited the two of them to go to the brothel to listen to music tomorrow.

Song Lingxin remained silent.

Xie Beiheng frowned slightly, "Li Hanye, you don't have to be like this in front of us!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the smile on Li Jingsheng's face faded by half, and he waved his hand, "Hey, you don't know the benefits of brothels. The girls inside are all as beautiful as flowers, and the songs they sing are melodious and lingering..."

Song Lingxin couldn't bear to see him wasting his days, so he couldn't help but say, "Once that person passes away, you won't have to do this anymore!"

Li Jingsheng smiled bitterly, "There's nothing wrong with this!"

After that, he said loudly: "Are you going or not?"

Xie Beiheng glanced at him and said calmly, "No! I have important things to do these days."

Li Jingsheng turned his head and squinted at Song Lingxin, with an attitude that said, "If you don't go, I'll break off our relationship."

Song Lingxin opened his mouth, "Then... I'll go with you!"

An hour later, the wine was finished and the crowd dispersed.

Xie Beiheng rode his horse through the streets in a very high-profile manner before returning home.

That evening.

An Yi emerged from the shadows and quickly reported, "Master, someone has appeared in Qingluo Lane, and Thirteen is watching!"

Xie Beiheng's eyes were sharp, and he asked anxiously, "Who is it?"

An Yi shook his head, "According to An Shi's report, only a young woman entered, but her identity is unknown!"

Xie Beiheng frowned.

"No matter who they are, we can't let them escape today. Go!"

After saying that, Xie Beiheng took Xu Chong with him, and the two of them jumped on their horses and galloped towards Qingluo Lane.
