Dew timid

A few people groped forward slowly here, the lights flickered and appeared, and the road was dark and faint.

The water that seeped from above was ruthlessly adsorbed on the rock wall, filling the air with a damp and muddy smell.

This road is said to be a small road for emergencies, and it was purely a coincidence to find it here.

According to Zhang Zhengqing's temperament, he probably didn't walk this road twice. I'm afraid he didn't think that this small road reserved for escape was a road that would push him into the abyss and hell.

at the same time.

Fu Chengci also received a letter from Feige from Jiangbei, which was the news from Fu Yijin.

Frowning slightly, he unfolded the letter from north to south in his hand.

Fu Yijin's handwriting is very delicate, and the content of a letter is written with eloquence. If you don't know the young master's temperament, you might think it is a love letter written by the girl Fu Xiangsi.

Only when you see the end is about to fall, you can see something.

The officials sent by Emperor Chengde to garrison Jiangbei finally made a move.

The reason is that they want to enter the snow mountain.

However, the official stationed in Jiangbei has lived in the capital for a long time, so he obviously knows nothing about Jiangbei. Although he has been ordered to stay there, Jiangbei has always been the territory of the Fu family.

There is no other reason for setting foot in Jiangbei Palace this time, which is to borrow troops.

This operation is said to be a secret purpose, and the move to Jiangbei Mansion is also extremely low-key, only saying that he wants to borrow troops and refuses to reveal a word.

If it hadn't been for the official's earnest statement that it was a word of mouth, I'm afraid Fu Yijin could really drive people out. Fu Yijin is a half-crippled man in a wheelchair and has a handsome appearance. Compared with the reputation of King Jiangbei, The unborn second son obviously had better choices.

However, which ones in the Fu family are really at the mercy of others? Fu Yijin's gentle demeanor makes people think that he is harmless.

He first appeased the official stationed in the north, then turned around and sent an eloquent letter to Jiangnan.

How much to borrow troops is a question.

The official borrowed troops from the King of Jiangbei with the imperial decree. If you borrow too much, you are counting as much. Border town patrols and garrison guards all need people. If there is a mistake at this stall, who will bear the consequences.

Is it the official who borrowed troops, the emperor who gave the order, or the second son of Fu, or the Jiangbei king far away in the south of the Yangtze River.

If there are fewer borrowers, then His Majesty's will will not be fulfilled. I am afraid that the punishment is considered minor, and the emperor's dissatisfaction is the major issue.

He is still unwilling to take up the hat of unreasonable disaster.

Either way, it's a difficult choice.

Fu Chengci lowered his eyes, and no one could clearly see that Shen Yun in his eyes was like a spring tide resurfacing, swallowing up his emotions in an instant.

Pick up the pen, dip in the ink, put the pen down.

The countermeasures for the response are on the paper.

He handed the things to the secret guard who sent the letter, and told him again verbally, "Let the second son take him to the Northwest Camp to order troops by himself, and send an order to Ji Shu to make him follow."

Ji Shu is the person he put in the Northwest Camp, with him following, Fu Chengci is at ease.

And at this time of year, the only valuable thing to enter the snow mountain is the cluster of snow lotus on Yingzui Peak.

If the emperor wants the snow lotus, he can directly issue an imperial decree and come to Jiangbei to ask for it, instead of asking people to go to Jiangbei mansion secretly to borrow troops.

He suppressed the strange look in his eyes, and began to speculate on the emperor's thoughts in his heart.

They sent messages not by running from south to north to kill a few horses, but by using carrier pigeons at post stations, and the carrier pigeons were replaced at each station to ensure the stability of the journey.

If you are not at ease along the way, you will send secret guards from different trails to walk the mountain road and follow them all the way.

If there is heavy rain, the road may be delayed. Normally, the news sent by the post station during the two-day journey will be delivered to the hand.

He was afraid that time would be too late.

The porridge in the morning was finished, and it was obvious that the banner of disaster relief was hung up, which greatly appeased the hearts of the people on the one hand.

Some refugees had nowhere to go anyway, so Lu Yu ordered people to build a resting place in the open space next to them to shelter from wind and rain, and he was grateful again and again.

As soon as he went back, he bumped into Fu Chengci in the yard, with bright eyebrows and starry eyes, an extremely handsome face, a tough face as if carved out with a knife, and his existence could always be noticed at a glance.

They met each other when they were young, and he vaguely remembered the young prince from Jiangbei who followed the old prince to Beijing for a banquet, followed behind him like a young tiger wandering into a dense forest by mistake, and called him brother prince with an innocent and ignorant appearance.

The complexities in his eyes gathered and dispersed, and a ridiculous idea surged up, if he was not the prince...

As soon as this idea came out, he immediately calmed down again, clenching his fists tightly, as if this could wipe out the extremely absurd idea in his heart.

He can't be the crown prince, and he can only be the crown prince.

Lu Qi and the others passed through the winding path, and the road in front of them opened up instantly.

At the place where there was a light on the rock wall, he threw the fire bag in his hand into a candle basket, and then a scene of strange art appeared in front of everyone.

A row of lights lit up all the way in an instant!

Several people looked at each other, and then formally looked at the place in front of them. This is a huge open space, and there are still traces of fighting and burning.

Lu Yong came here before, and the scene he saw at the beginning seems to be still vivid in his mind, the splendor and magnificence turned into such a messy ruin in a blink of an eye. Compared with the curiosity that could not be concealed in the eyes of others, he was calm However.

The fire used to illuminate was jumping and swinging uncomfortably. Compared with the depression of walking on the path, this place is obviously much more comfortable, the air is sufficient, and there are obviously more than three ways out.

Lu Qi calculated the time from when they came down to when they came in, not sure what would happen during this period, he said in a low voice: "There are a total of eighteen rooms here, and there are countless storage rooms, the road is complicated, so be careful Some!"

After he finished speaking, all the soldiers stood at attention solemnly, their eyes resolute and determined.

"Yes!"

The momentum is like a rainbow, and the sound is like a shocking sky, reverberating in this underground palace.

Lu Qi raised his eyebrows slightly, but did not speak.

Lu Yong went to the blocked intersection, and the whole house above collapsed, completely sealing off the place.

Thinking of seeing Duan Yin in the courtyard at that time, a dark color flickered in his eyes.

Duan Yin ran back to Jiangnan Prince's Mansion, he had already lost the chance to strike, and keeping this person would always be a disaster.

He was so absorbed in his thoughts that he didn't notice the movement of Jiang Zhuliu coming. The light of the night pearl bloomed from his palm, and the soft white light shone on his body, as if with a sense of detachment from the world.

Jiang Zhuliu stopped in his tracks, and the two of them asked a few steps apart, "Do you want to open this intersection?"

Connecting to the deserted garden, this is the best path.

Lu Yong shook his head, and handed Ye Mingzhu to Jiang Zhuliu, "No, I'll fill up the well after the search here."

Jiang Zhuliu's heart was slightly startled, King Qi was going to be completely buried here.

But after thinking about it carefully, he figured it out. Zhang Zhengqing has done countless shady things here. This underground palace, which was decorated so magnificently earlier, is now just a ruin.

There are countless lives buried here, and there is really no reason to stay here.

Lu Yong chose to enter a nearby room, which was relatively well protected, but there were still carbon marks from the fire on the walls on all sides.

He opened a few cabinets at random, and there were only a few pieces of paper that were of little use in them. Anyway, he collected them all and took them back to study for sure.

Every time Lu Qi opened a cabinet, he took out the contents and handed them to Jiang Zhuliu who was behind him.

They roughly swept a room, and then went straight to the next room. The soldiers who passed by all looked sideways curiously, and saw them serving as the governor of God, holding a bunch of messy things and obediently following behind the king. .

The impact of this picture was too great, they only took a quick glance, and then hurriedly looked away.

They only took a look around the next room when they heard footsteps outside the door.

The soldier was obviously agitated, and his voice was unstoppable, "His Royal Highness, Governor, I found this in a secret compartment!"

He held the jade tablet in both hands, trembling slightly, lowering his head and eyes fixedly on his shoe upper.

Lu Qi heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and hooked the corner of his mouth lightly, and found it!

The difference was Jiang Zhuliu, who frowned slightly, as if he hadn't realized it yet, but actually found it?

When he saw that jade, his pupils shrank and he felt that he had seen it somewhere.

But I can't remember it for a while.

Lu Qi turned around, and when he looked at the jade card, his complexion changed in time, as if he was twisted into a ball, he took the thing over, it was a jade of good quality, with a deep line on it cracks.

It is not uncommon to have jade of good quality, and people with a little wealth will prepare a lot of this kind of jade, but the wonderful thing is that he has a piece of jade that is exactly the same.

Lu Qi pursed his lips, didn't say much, and put the thing on Jiang Zhuliu again, and said, "Keep it safe."

This sentence made Jiang Zhuliu take a few more glances.

He praised the little soldier a few words, and then returned to his indifferent appearance.

After turning the underground palace upside down, what was collected was only as big as a hug.

The only thing that disappointed Lu Qi was that this underground palace seemed to have nothing to do with Duan Yin, and he couldn't find anything related to it.

But it doesn't matter, there will be a long time to come.

They went up after knocking out all the hidden stakes and hidden grids without missing anything.

Xiao Tongwei, who was sent by the palace, was waiting at the exit, and he was relieved to see them come out safely.

He was about to go forward to salute, when his eyes fell on the jade plaque in the arms of a soldier, his expression suddenly changed. If Jiang Zhuliu read it correctly, the expression was panic.

A jade token is so terrifying?

Xiao Tongwei didn't care about etiquette, as it was related to the Tian family, he asked bluntly: "Where did you find this jade plaque, His Royal Highness?"

Lu Yong met his gaze with exceptionally calm eyes, "It was found by a soldier."

The soldier who was named stood up tremblingly, and was a little timid when facing the aggressive Xiao Tongwei, "Hui, Hui, I found this in a secret compartment in a room."

"Secret space?" Xiao Tongwei wrote it down.

But the matter is so important that he cannot afford to be careless.

He asked Lu Qi again, "Dare to ask where King Su was at that time?"

Lu Qi pondered for a while, "I am searching the room with Governor Jiang."

Xiao Tongwei looked at Jiang Zhuliu, and the latter nodded. He still didn't know what the question meant, but he was sure that the appearance of this jade medal was a world-shaking change.

Lu Qi looked at Xiao Tongwei, pretending to murmur: "Xiao Tongwei, to tell you the truth, I also have one of this jade card!"

As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden silence in the room, and the people beside them didn't even dare to speak loudly.

Jiang Zhuliu finally knew where this familiarity was. The token that came to him along with the imperial decree was not just such a jade token.

At that time, he just glanced at it hastily, but after that, he remembered it in his heart.

He didn't know why the thing that had passed through his hands was lying in the underground palace at this moment, and the thing that was obviously inextricably related to Zhang Zhengqing would belong to King Wei.

He subconsciously glanced at Lu Qi. The latter's brows and eyes were clearly combed, and he was not flustered. The thoughts in his heart floated even more, not knowing whether his choice this time was right or wrong.

After listening to Lu Qi's words, Xiao Tongwei nodded heavily.This jade tablet is ordinary, but he is very familiar with it. This piece of jade was a tribute to Emperor Chengde from a Buddhist temple years ago, but it was too soft to be carved into a decoration, and it was not of a very pure quality, so Emperor Chengde ordered Polish it into a jade tablet and give it to every prince.

One in each hand, just treat it as a handle object.

As a person close to Emperor Chengde, he naturally recognized this jade.

Although the rewards given by the emperor are not unique, they are also rare and unique. Even if they are framed, they cannot imitate the imprint left by Emperor Chengde.

Xiao Tongwei was a little panicked, but the evidence on the surface at this moment involved a lot of princes.

No matter who it is, it is an expression of angering Shengyan. This is a slap in the face of His Majesty!

If Lu Qi hadn't said those words before, he could have found an opportunity to take him back to the capital privately and ask for a holy judge.

However, Lu Yong's words fell on everyone's ears.

Even if he wanted to regret it, he couldn't regret the eyes of this yard.

Naturally, Lu Qi saw his embarrassment, and threw the hot potato to Xiao Tongwei, and said with a bit of aggrieved voice: "Now this king is also involved, let Xiao Tongwei decide the next thing."

This jade card is also available to the prince if the king of Qi has a prince, and if the king of Qi is suspected, the prince will naturally be unable to escape.

Lu Yong picked up all the things that offended people, and at this moment, his appearance really answered the two words.

harmless.

Xiao Tongwei gritted his teeth and ordered the soldiers behind him, "Go invite the prince!"

It was ruled that he naturally could not be the master, and for now, he could only write a book to the capital and inform Emperor Chengde of the matter in detail.

Then bring the two princes back to the capital, and check one by one who lost the jade badge, and the truth will naturally come to light.

To carry out the affairs of the Tian family publicly would be to lose the face of the Tian family. However, this matter was ordered by Emperor Chengde to be investigated by the king of Qi. Now that this matter has been found out, he lifted a stone and shot himself in the foot. talk.

Xiao Tongwei glanced at Lu Qi's expression again, without the slightest panic, but this indifferent look was mixed with indescribable weirdness.
