Although he was going to the southeast palace to investigate, there was no good way for a while. If he could find out by sneaking into the secret investigation, Jin Jiuling would not have been helpless for so long.

However, everyone still decided to send a person to find out.They planned to let Lu Xiaofeng disguise himself as Jin Jiuling to ask Dongnan Wang when he would let him see Jin Jiuling's lover again. Now that Jin Jiuling is blind and has lost all his martial arts, it is definitely impossible for him to appear in front of the people in the palace again. .

In order to make Lu Xiaofeng look more like him, Jin Jiuling finally revealed the identity of his man.

In today's Daqing Dynasty, there are a few families that are particularly rich, such as the Hua family in Jiangnan, the Yan family in Shanxi, and the Lu family in Guanzhong. But among these families, even the Yan family in Shanxi with the shortest history has at least about 20 It takes years of accumulation to be rich to this extent.

However, there is such a person, in just a few years, he started from scratch and reached the point where he can at least be on an equal footing with the Yan family in Shanxi. Really very capable.He inherited his mother's surname, and he has a nice name called Xia Rouran—although the name is very similar to a woman's name.

Lu Xiaofeng opened his mouth into a circle, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time, "You, the person you like is actually a man! It's that, that legendary God of Wealth in the Western Regions whose houses are made of gold!"

Jin Jiuling pursed his lips and smiled—it seemed that whenever he mentioned that man, he became very gentle—and said, "A Xia's house is not made of gold."

Lu Xiaofeng was tongue-tied, "But such a capable person, how could he be caught by the people from the Southeast Palace?"

A look of sadness flashed across Jin Jiuling's face, and he said: "Ah Xia doesn't know martial arts, he was plotted against when he went to the capital to look for me, ever since I knew the palace was raking in money, I knew why they wanted to arrest him Now, they not only want me to do things for them, they are also coveting A-Xia's money. Among the four richest people in the Daqing Dynasty, no matter it is the Hua family in Jiangnan or the Lu family in Guanzhong, they all have deep backgrounds behind them. Without the support of Yan Tieshan and Huo Tianqing, the Yan family in Shanxi still has people under the care of the old man Tianqin. Only Axia started from scratch, and there is no big power behind him. Even if there are many masters under his command, most of those people are in the Western Regions I don't know what they did to A-Xia, now A-Xia's properties in the Central Plains have all fallen into their hands."

The topic is back again, why does the Southeast Palace need so much money?

"A vassal king would need so much money, there is only one possibility," Hua Manlou said seriously, "The southeast king wants to plot a rebellion."

This is not just a matter of rivers and lakes.

Lu Xiaofeng immediately asked Tang Wuxun to help him change his appearance into Jin Jiuling and rush to the palace, and Jin Jiuling also fumbled to write a secret letter, asking the Snake King to send someone to find the spies of Six Doors, and secretly send the letter to the capital.

Lu Xiaofeng came back not long after he left, and brought back a piece of news - the King of the Southeast and his son went to the capital!They left secretly, because the vassal king was not allowed to leave the fief without edict. If Lu Xiaofeng hadn't disguised himself as Jin Jiuling, he might not have known about it from the southeast king's cronies.

Ye Gucheng also left Yangcheng because he made an appointment with Ximen Chuuxue to fight against the top of the Forbidden City on the night of the full moon next month.

Suddenly all the targets were gathered in the capital.

After bidding farewell to the Snake King, everyone took Jin Jiuling to the capital.Originally, he had to take Jin Jiuling to explain to Jiang Chongwei and others, but it was too late now.

It took them only ten days to rush from Lingnan to the capital, but there were only five days left until the decisive battle between Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng—September [-]th.

Jin Jiuling took them to live in a brothel, which was a place for prostitute business, and it was also a secret stronghold of Xia Rouran's subordinates.

"Since Axia fell into the hands of the palace, I have tried to notify his staff in the Western Regions, but it took a long time to come here from the Western Regions, and Axia's properties in the Central Plains have also fallen. In the hands of the palace, this place is the only one that is reliable now," Jin Jiuling asked the person in charge of the stronghold after introducing them, "Have you still not found out where Axia is being held?"

The person in charge is a middle-aged beautiful woman dressed as a procuress, named Shi Sanniang. When she heard Jin Jiuling's questioning, she sighed, "It's not easy! We were not familiar with the place in Zhongyuan, so we couldn't use it at all. The traitors who defected to the palace have already lost a lot of people, and there is still no clue."

Jin Jiuling thumped the table resentfully, and said: "It's okay, because the Southeast King was a feudal lord before, I didn't want to openly use people from the six sects to investigate him. Now that he is suspected of treason, I have to put Check out his details!"

Lu Xiaofeng rolled his eyes and said, "I have quite a few friends in the capital, you just say you need to check something, and I'll ask them for help."

There are many things to check, all people and places related to Southeast King must be checked.Although Jin Jiuling had lost his martial arts and was blind, the people at Six Doors didn't know about it, so Lu Xiaofeng disguised himself as him anyway, went to the headquarters of Six Doors, and issued his orders. By the way, he helped him write a memorial, which explained everything.

The next day, Wei Ziyun, the commander of Ouchi's guards, found them and began to cooperate with them in the investigation.

At this time, it was already September eleventh, and there were only four days left before the decisive battle between Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng.

So far, all the investigation work has been done by Six Doors, Ouchi guards, Xia Rouran's subordinates, and Lu Xiaofeng. Tang Wuxun and Hua Manlou are of no use.

However, Hua Manlou still thought of what he could do, so he dragged Tang Wuxun to the house of the second elder brother of the Hua family.His second brother is now the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and they can use him to check the officials who have relations with the Southeast Palace.If the southeast king wants to rebel, it is impossible not to win over the ministers of the DPRK and China.

At the Second Brother Hua's house, the two of them were naturally complained by the Second Sister-in-law Hua -- the sister-in-laws of the Hua family still remembered the fact that the two escaped from a blind date in Peach Blossom Castle last time.

The matter involved the rebellion of the vassal king, of course the second brother Hua was duty-bound. Although there is no evidence on the surface, it is not easy to investigate blatantly. Even the Ouchi guards and the six doors are secretly investigating, but the second brother Hua naturally has his own way.

On the night of September [-]th, after a joint investigation by these parties, some clues were finally found.

Since the Southeast King and his eldest son left the fief without authorization, they must not show up in front of others, but after all, they are pampered, and the hiding place must not be too bad, but this place must be secret enough, so the final target is locked in A private house under the name of a distant relative of a distant relative of Chang Shi of the Southeast Prince's Mansion.

At this time, Tang Wuxun finally had a place to use his skills. He was the best at sneaking in and the like. As soon as he received the news, he packed up and set off.

The blue and black Nanhuang suit covered his whereabouts very well in the middle of the night, until he sneaked into the mansion, he still didn't alarm anyone.

It was late at night, and not many rooms in the house were still lit.There was no difference between the outside of the house and the houses of ordinary rich and noble people, but when he arrived at the inner courtyard, he immediately found that the defense here was very strict. Even the bushes in the garden were guarded there, and there were almost no dead spots.

Tang Wuxun has his own way of hiding his presence and aura. If it doesn't work, he can still be invisible, but in this way, he can only inspect the terrain without being noticed.If he wanted to know whether the Southeast Prince and his son were hiding here, and whether Xia Rouran was imprisoned in this place, he would definitely grab a "tongue" and ask.

He hid in the canopy of a big tree. Taking advantage of the moment when the patrolling guards in the courtyard staggered, he jumped to the eaves closest to him, climbed up the beam, and climbed along the eaves to a guard. In the blind spot of his eyes, he used the "Floating Light and Glance" to stealthily pry open a window and turn it in, and then closed the window silently.

He had heard the snoring of the people in this room before, but he didn't dare to be careless. He held the nail in his hand and walked slowly to the bed in the dark.

The person on the bed had shallow breath and didn't seem to know martial arts, but he still took out the misty smoke to stun the person, tied him up, and stuffed the person's mouth with something before waking him up.

This man is a middle-aged man. Judging from the furnishings in his house, it seems that his status is not low, but judging from his frightened expression after waking up, it is clear that he is not a difficult character.

Tang Wuxun lowered his voice, and only asked a few threats before asking about the situation.

It turned out that this person was an aide of the Southeast King, and the Southeast King and his son were indeed hiding in this place. As for Xia Rouran, the aide didn't know much about it. He only knew that no one was allowed to enter the study in the courtyard, and only the Southeast King himself and his son could enter. and the guard leader.

The news came so easily that Tang Wuxun didn't dare to believe it completely.After listening to this, he silently twisted the man's neck, melted him with corpse water, and according to the situation the man said before, sneaked into another room and asked a few more people before he was sure. The situation is true.

The current situation is not suitable for saving people. He can come and go freely in this house, but if he brings another person with him, it may not be so easy to leave.

But if he left like this, tomorrow people in the yard will find that a few people have disappeared without a trace, they will definitely startle the snake, and it will be even more difficult at that time.

However, he immediately thought of it again. It is also beneficial to startle the snake. If those people are startled, they will definitely move to other places under the current situation that the Southeast King dare not reveal their whereabouts. Worry about not being able to find a chance to save someone.

So he repeatedly confirmed that he had cleaned up all his hands and feet, and then left the place.
