Chapter 305

King of the Tomb?

Du Mufei was shocked. She had been pursuing the matters in the Gu land for many days and had not paid much attention to the King of Ling himself.

Especially when she heard that this man was ill and had not appeared in the court for a long time, Du Mufei sent someone to investigate secretly. If something was wrong, her eyeliner should have informed her as soon as possible.

He has disappeared in the mansion for many days, aren't you curious?

Ruan Daibing looked at Du Mufei with a surprised expression and knew that this person didn't know about it, so she continued: It's not something unexpected if you don't know.I'm afraid that your subordinates who sent you to collect intelligence have long become one of the Lingwang Gu people.

Why…?Du Mufei frowned when he heard this, and the next second he heard Ruan Daibing say softly: There is nothing to tell me about how I know.But I can guarantee that everything I tell you is factual.

King Ling has long been no longer in the palace.Thinking of everything he experienced in the royal palace during this period, Ruan Daibing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Since her sister left, she has been cautiously staying in the palace. At that time, King Ling often came to the door to listen to the piano and play chess, which was almost rainy and rain.

But after he became pregnant, Prince Ling never came, and he said that he was sick and had no intention of attending court.

At first, Ruan Daibing didn't doubt anything, but the longer the time, the more strange things became.

Mu Zhen, as the personal slave and secret guard of the King of Ling, was sick and he went out frequently. He even dared to interfere in matters of the royal palace, and even directly contacted the two strange guests in the mansion.

All this is so strange. According to their sisters' perception of the King of Ling, a man like him who likes to be in power will never give everything to his subordinates even if he is sick.

Until Mu Zhen came to the door in person and sent a message to King Ling to inform his sister that he might come back to visit again in a while.

Ruan Daibing's eyes were slightly cold and as sinister as the King of Ling, but he would tell his sister a geisha about such an important thing. Was he using a trick to test them or did he really have some feelings?

Already...no longer in the palace?Du Mufei pondered when she heard this, and she supported her chin with one hand and fell into thinking.

It’s better if you don’t believe me, your life or death has nothing to do with me anyway.Ruan Daibing said that, then picked up the knife on the table and turned around to leave. As soon as she turned around, she was stopped by the woman.

Du Mufei stared at Ruan Daibing's eyes seriously and begged sincerely: Miss Ruan, I want to ask some things, please be sure to inform me.

……

Shang Chi hasn't been beaten so badly for a long time. She has a bamboo leaf in her mouth and tastes the bitterness. Although she has rubbed the bruises on her shoulders lightly enough, she is still inhaled in pain.

The old woman with white hair said that she took this opportunity to learn about her martial arts skills. This was clearly because she wanted to beat herself up.

When Shang Chi thought of the man's calm and gentle voice, he said that he was not diligent enough, he felt itchy.

After thinking about it, she picked up the scroll that the man threw for her, which was densely filled with words that Shang Chi couldn't understand.

This thing looks like an antique object at first glance, and I don’t know what the two of them wanted her to do when they sent it over.

Before leaving, he didn't say a word, and the master and apprentice were just as boring.

After glanced at her for a few seconds, she lost interest. Shang Chi spit out the bamboo leaves in anger, lowered his head and stuffed the scroll into his arms. Then she stood up with her sore thighs.

Before the person could stand firm after just two steps, a white dove in the distance swayed left and right, and flew straight towards her.

Shang Chi knew this fat pigeon. This was the lazy bird that Xia Qianjin raised by her as her favorite. She was usually spoiled and fed her fat body. Unexpectedly, it could still fly.

Shang Chi couldn't help laughing as she looked at the dove's clumsy appearance of flapping its wings and falling. She stretched out her hand to pick up the fat bird, but the next second it hit her wrist sore.

...It's really heavy.

The sudden incident of this was unprepared, which made the exhausted Shang Chi a little unable to bear it, and his slender palms trembled upwards.

。

Seeing this, the fat bird shook its feathers, screamed twice and lowered its head to peck at the bamboo tube tied to its feet. It glanced at Shang Chi with a very humane look, shook his tail as if disgusting, and flew away without looking back.

Didn’t something happen to Qianjin?

Shang Chi rubbed his sore wrists, took apart the bamboo tube with both fingers and clamped out the paper strips inside. After opening the paper strips, the beautiful small calligraphy on them appeared in his eyes.

It describes many things that Xia Qianjin has happened after she returned. She especially emphasized that some branches of Zhenbao Pavilion suddenly lost contact with Youguo in the Tianchao Dynasty. At the same time, there are many branches in the grain and iron ore that have also lost traces.

Those rations were part of the purchase and sale of Zhenbao Pavilion from Jingguo. Although they still had most of the rations in their hands, those that were missing were definitely enough for an army to last more than a month!

The letter mentioned the tense atmosphere between the Celestial Empire and the Youguo, and the grain and ore were likely taken away by one of the forces.

Xia Qianjin knew that Shang Chi had gone to a branch in Zhenbao Pavilion in the capital, so she was very worried about her situation.

If the two countries start war, it will be difficult for them to meet again next time. Due to their identity and situation, Xia Qianjin will never be able to set foot in these areas again.

It seems that this matter is much more serious than expected.After reading it, Shang Chi destroyed the letter, frowned slightly, but nodded comfortably and said: I don’t know if the old fox has a backup plan, but he will never let himself suffer.

Thinking of Xia Jinsheng's kind and cunning face, Shang Chi couldn't help but sneeze. It would be better to talk to him less, otherwise he would get trapped again.

Shang Chi stretched, raised his foot and jumped several meters away, and then disappeared into the bamboo forest.

Little did she know that as soon as she left, a person stepped into the place.

The man was wearing a black robe and hid his entire face under the hat. He looked around for a few times, and saw that Wu Ren was cautiously rushing towards the direction of the mountain.

When he flew to a rocky hill halfway up the mountain, the man stopped and looked up at the strange rocks here, with shadows shrouding in this land without a trace of sunshine.

He had just walked forward two steps into the shadow, and suddenly many scarlet and dark green eyes appeared in the shadow of the stones around him. The gloomy and terrifying atmosphere scared the man to take a step back.

Who is here?Someone hid in the dark and asked hoarsely.

After hearing this, the man took off the hat on his head, revealing the hideous scar on his forehead, and said lightly: It's me.

Brother Mu has been missing for a long time.In the shadow, a round man touched his stomach and walked out. He chuckled and waved the Gu man behind him, put one hand on Mu Zhen's shoulder and continued: The prince has been waiting for a long time, you are here at the right time.
