The cold husband can't warm me up, I don't love him anymore

That afternoon, a note with the address was delivered to Chenghuang Temple.

The next day, Cui Lingyi asked someone to secretly go to the original place and found a replaced note.

There is an address on it.

"Xinglong Teahouse Zhuiyuanzhai?"

After reading it, Cui Lingyi handed the note to Feng Zhenzhu.

"I didn't expect a response so soon? It seems this golden hand thief really exists."

Feng Zhenzhu also nodded.

"So we really have to spend money to hire this person?"

Cui Lingyi rolled her eyes at her.

"Otherwise, have you thought of a better way?"

Feng Zhenzhu sighed and collapsed on the couch beside her.

"What can I do? I have remembered most of the formula for the gunpowder. As long as I have all the ingredients, I can make it in no time!"

Cui Lingyi twitched the corners of her lips.

"You, don't think about that anymore. It will cause endless troubles!"

"I'm just worried that our plan to steal from the Golden Hand will be discovered. Wouldn't that cause endless trouble?"

Feng Zhenzhu said this and sat up from the couch.

Cui Lingyi pursed her lips, "So you mean, you're not going?"

"Not really, we need to find a few more people." Feng Zhenzhu had a plan, "By the way, where is the Buddha's hand..."

"She seems a bit busy recently...Do you want her to accompany us?" Cui Lingyi also came back to her senses, "Forget about her."

"Maybe he will be recognized with this identity!" Feng Zhenzhu also nodded.

"Then we'll just have to dress up in disguise!"

An hour later, the two arrived at Zhuiyuanzhai of Xinglong Inn as agreed on the note.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw Shen Du and Xie Jin sitting in the room drinking tea.

She didn't even blink when she saw the two women dressed as men.

Obviously he was mentally prepared.

Cui Lingyi and Feng Zhenzhu both shouted out in unison.

"Why are you here?"

After saying this, both of them were a little speechless.

How could they underestimate Shen Du's ability to control Shangjing?

It would be strange if two people were doing something under the nose of the Imperial City Bureau without being noticed.

Shen Du glanced at Cui Lingyi with a gentle expression.

"Ali, come and sit down."

Xie Jin walked forward with a smile and looked at Feng Zhenzhu.

"You look so pretty today, wear it often in the future!"

Feng Zhenzhu rolled her eyes at him.

"Okay, then you have to wear women's clothes."

"Isn't that confusing right and wrong?"

Xie Jin curled the corners of his lips, laughed, and pulled Feng Zhenzhu over to sit aside.

"Don't you want to see it?"

"...Hey, I asked for too much!"

Cui Lingyi looked at the interaction between the two, and then glanced at Shen Du who was frowning and silent.

There is a huge gap between people.

She walked over and sat on the stool next to Shen Du.

"Why are you here?" Cui Lingyi asked.

A familiar cool fragrance blew by, and Shen Du's sleeves flashed.

Her hands on her knees were held.

"If we hadn't come, how would we have known that you would actually come here?"

There was a hint of pampering and indulgence in Shen Du's voice.

Cui Lingyi raised her eyes and saw a smile on the corner of his thin lips.

It looks just like the winter plum blossoms about to bloom.

She felt a stir in her heart and wanted to pull her hand out.

But unexpectedly, Shen Du held it even tighter.

"You don't even bring a warm woman with you when you go out. What do your maids do?"

As he spoke, he wrapped both of her hands around her and kneaded them gently.

Cui Lingyi is a little shy.

She glanced at Feng Zhenzhu not far away and found that she was flirting with Xie Jin and had no time to pay attention to her.

The whole person is much more relaxed.

"I'm already dressed like this, why am I still using a hot water bottle? Is that appropriate?"

"That's right." Shen Du raised his eyes and smiled.

A pair of phoenix eyes concealed their sharpness, revealing a smile as warm as the sun.

Cui Lingyi was stunned.

Sure enough, Shen Du looks best when he smiles.

When he has a cold face, he is completely two different people.

"you..."

"Okay, don't stay here, what do you want to eat?" Shen Du smiled, "The eggplant-flavored spareribs and four-treasure meatballs here are pretty good."

Cui Lingyi was about to speak when she heard Feng Zhenzhu shouting.

"Order, order, and talk while eating!"

Turning around, he saw her holding Xie Jin's hand and walking to the table with confidence.

"Ali, let's eat first and then go back, okay?"

"Okay." Cui Lingyi smiled.

After a while, the food came and the four of them started chatting about the matter while eating.

"Didn't I tell you a long time ago? You were told not to worry about this matter and just come here." Xie Jing spoke first.

Cui Lingyi was surprised, "Did you say that a long time ago?"

Feng Zhenzhu smiled and took over the conversation, "Yes, I told him a few days ago. He had no choice, so I didn't tell you."

"Oh." Cui Lingyi then realized that Feng Zhenzhu had already been thinking of a solution.

"You should have told me what you knew sooner."

Feng Zhenzhu glanced at Shen Du and said, "I dare not do that. If the Marquis knows, I will..."

She smiled and said nothing more.

Cui Lingyi was also speechless.

Shen Du spoke calmly.

"Don't worry about this anymore. I have a solution."

"What method?" Xie Jin asked, "You are not going to ask my brother for help, are you? If that's the case, it would be better for me to go!"

Shen Du glanced at him.

"Does King Linjiang think that the stone can be obtained just by asking for it?"

Xie Jing just glared at him.

"What do you mean by that? Are you saying that I am not capable of this?"

"It's nothing. I just want to remind you not to let His Majesty think you are restless!"

Shen Du's expression was cold, but his words were to the point.

Cui Lingyi and Feng Zhenzhu looked at each other and both understood what he meant.

In Emperor Wen's mind, the meteorite was the foundation of the country.

Anyone who wants to touch it would be equivalent to trying to shake his throne as emperor.

What's more, Xie Jin is also a prince.

Fully qualified to sit in that chair.

Once Xie Jin asked for the meteorite, no matter what the reason was.

They would all be suspected by Emperor Wen.

If someone with ulterior motives comes out and tries to sow discord, who knows what the outcome will be?

Xie Jin also knew this, so he pursed his lips and remained silent.

As a brother, he knows the person who now sits on the emperor's throne better than anyone else.

On the surface, they seem to be friendly and respectful to each other, but in fact, they are very suspicious of each other.

It's just that he concealed it so well that people couldn't easily notice it.

Over the years, half of the Dajing court has actually been in the hands of Prince Yan.

Although the King of Yan has fallen, there is still a regent in the south.

This regent is no ordinary prince.

When the previous emperor passed away, he passed the throne to Crown Prince Xie Cheng, who is the current Emperor Wen.

However, Emperor Wen was known for his elegance and kindness, but lacked military power.

Therefore, the late emperor appointed the fourth prince Xie Yuan as regent, leading the Guijia Army to maintain the stability of Dajing.

Soon after Emperor Wen ascended the throne, he took advantage of the rebellion of the barbarians in the south to demote the regent to the south and stationed him in the frontier.

And if he was not really uninterested in state affairs, he would just want to be a rich and idle king.

How could Emperor Wen allow him to stay in Shangjing for a long time?

Now that Prince Yan is dead, there is a tendency for the Regent Prince to emerge again.

If he came forward at this time, Emperor Wen would definitely become suspicious.
