Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space

None of them knew the identity of the imperial prisoner, and they only gathered together because they felt uneasy about the changes in Pingyang City.

Now trying to figure everything out, everyone feels like the pressure on their shoulders is like a mountain.

However, the more pressure they felt, the more excited they became. After all, the rebels in Ping'an Prefecture were pressing down on the territory, and as people who were inquiring about information, they were completely trapped in Pingyang City.

Now that something strange has happened in Pingyang City, they have a place to use it. Therefore, no matter how heavy the pressure is on them, they are gearing up and hoping to find out everything within an hour.

Because of this, in less than half an hour, they began to sneak into the officials' houses to inquire about various information, and then compiled it into a book and passed it to Chen Changli through special channels.

At midnight, Chen Changli returned to Songyang Town and happened to receive the news from them.

"Pingyang City is in chaos." After rubbing these words with his fingers for a while, Chen Changli put the note full of news into the candlelight and burned it to ashes.

Looking at the slightly swaying halo-yellow flames, a layer of shadow appeared on Chen Changli's face, and his expression was very complicated and difficult to understand.

"The officials in Pingyang City were all re-promoted by Zhao Yunhui, and there are problems. It seems that the southwest officialdom has long been out of your Majesty's control."

Lifting his fingers and tapping on the table, Chen Changli frowned thoughtfully, but relaxed after a while.

"The officialdom in the southwest is not under control. That only means that the White Lotus Sect has been entrenched here for a long time. Therefore, the leader of the White Lotus Sect may not be trying to win over me, but has another purpose."

After thinking about this for a while, Chen Changli breathed a sigh of relief.

He blew out the candles and fell asleep directly. At dawn the next day, he got up early, had breakfast and headed for Ping'an Prefecture.

At this time, Chen Changli arrived at Yuelai Inn.

At this time, Jiang Wanli and Wu Baoyu also came with the fourth prince, but because the leader of the White Lotus Sect would appear, the fourth prince who arrived was unconscious.

Looking at the unconscious fourth prince, Chen Changli frowned slightly and couldn't help but wonder.

After all, the Fourth Prince was an easy chess piece to exploit, so why were these two people so rude to him?

Aren't they worried that the fourth prince will have a complaint, which will lead to the failure of their plan?

Looking at Jiang Wanli with a strange look, Chen Changli said with a gentle face: "Did you just bring the fourth prince here? I'm afraid he will punish you when he wakes up."

"We are not those mediocre officials in the court. The fourth prince cannot be punished even if he wants to." Wu Baoyu said in a sarcastic tone.

Jiang Wanli pointed out: "The thoughts of the fourth prince are like a hornet's nest. If we don't knock him out, even if you are the emperor and you fall in love with the general, you will be in trouble."

When Chen Changli heard this, he looked at Jiang Wanli with more thoughts.

This man was very jealous of his enemies. He must have been completely disappointed with the court before he fell into the arms of the White Lotus Sect.

If you could figure out what he was going through, maybe you could have a heart-to-heart talk with him.

Chen Changli was thinking this in his heart, but he didn't show it at all on his face. He said calmly and calmly: "Thank you for your advice, sir, but as long as he is the prince, I have to care about his safety, so I will look at you two for the rest of the time. Please be considerate and don't let him get hurt."

Wu Baoyu made an impatient gesture: "We are very kind to him, but he is not restless, so we are treating him like this."

Jiang Wanli said with a smile: "Since you appeared, the fourth prince's mind has become very active, and what he told us has become a lie. In order to make him fulfill his promise, and to make you believe in our sincerity, We just knocked him out."

When he said this, he glanced at Chen Changli specifically to make sure that his face was calm and no emotion could be seen, and then continued: "We are measured in our actions, so you can relax."

After finishing speaking, Jiang Wanli made an invitation gesture and invited Chen Changli to enter the Yuelai Inn with him.

Chen Changli's eyes had a strange color, as if he was thinking about something, but he quickly calmed down and followed Jiang Wanli in.

Entering the second floor of Yuelai Inn, Chen Changli saw several men in white robes guarding outside a wing.

He was thinking that the leader of the White Lotus Sect was in this wing, but Wu Baoyu said: "Our leader is actually related to you. I hope you will consider our White Lotus Sect seriously after seeing her."

As he said this, he looked deeply at Chen Changli, and then he, Jiang Wanli, and the fourth prince entered another wing.

Seeing their evasive attitude, Chen Changlim knew that they were not going to listen to the conversation between him and the leader of the White Lotus Sect.

He couldn't help but secretly ponder the purpose, but the leader of the White Lotus Sect was in the front room, and many of his doubts might be answered.

Therefore, even if he didn't understand the intention, Chen Changli didn't take it seriously and directly entered the side room.

As soon as he came in, he saw a beautiful woman with white hair on her temples sitting in the middle, admiring a plate of peonies on the table with leisurely eyes.

She heard the footsteps and said without raising her head: "Do you know why I want to see you?"

Chen Changli looked at her and felt that she was familiar for some reason, but he couldn't remember where he had seen her.

After listening to her question, Chen Changli suppressed the inexplicable feeling of familiarity in his heart and said calmly: "I don't know, but I think you must have your own purpose."

"Your mother is my biological sister." She picked up the scissors next to her and cut off the brightly blooming peonies. The woman's expression showed unabashed admiration and joy, "and I was once your father's fiancée."

younger sister? fiancée! Chen Changli was so shocked that his pupils shrank slightly, but his voice was as cold as ice: "My mother is just the daughter of an ordinary scholar. She will not have anything to do with the leader of the White Lotus Sect. Don't try to trick me."

If he hadn't wanted to figure out this woman's purpose, Chen Changli would have taken action when he heard her nonsense.

"I know you don't believe it, but what I said is the truth, so you can't believe it." The woman took out a jade pendant and threw it in front of Chen Changli.

She seemed to feel that this jade pendant was not enough, so she stretched out her hand to touch her face and said with a bright smile: "Your mother looks very similar to me. You only need to take a serious look at me to understand that I am not lying."

Chen Changli subconsciously reached out to catch the jade pendant, and then heard the woman's words, and was immediately frightened.

He didn't even bother to check the jade pendant in his hand, because at this moment he finally understood why he felt a sense of familiarity when he saw the woman. It turned out that she looked very similar to his mother.

"Since you and my mother are sisters, why did you become the leader of the White Lotus Sect? Did you come to see me today to make me betray Your Majesty using the name of your so-called aunt?"
