After being reborn with Sister Zha, I was stunned!

"This is indeed very strange." Mu Beiyan was also confused.

Only the Armored Guards are stationed within a 300-mile radius of Lingxiao City.

When he came here, he had people investigate the other garrisons of the Armored Guards, but found nothing unusual.

And now, he personally investigated the Xuanjiawei camp in Lingxiao City and found nothing wrong.

The Iron Armored Guards only obeyed the orders of Xiao Chucheng, the king of Xituo.

But it’s obvious that the king is no longer able to govern the country, but the Armored Guards seem to be completely unaware of it. This is really strange!

"Is the king really sick?" Shen Qingyin guessed.

Mu Beiyan thought for a long time, then shook his head: "Xiao Chu was only forty years old, in the prime of his life, and his health suddenly collapsed. This possibility is not impossible, but it is very small. Moreover, according to what you said, the monarch was still in power in the following years, and the prince did not succeed to the throne. This means that even if he was ill, it was not so serious that he could not do anything and let the prince and other warmongering forces stir up trouble in the former dynasty."

This makes sense, and Shen Qingyin fell silent for a moment.

"It seems that we can only go into the palace to take a look." Mu Beiyan thought thoughtfully.

Shen Qingyin's expression froze, and he immediately grabbed his sleeve: "Entering the palace? Are you alone?"

Although she had never been to the imperial palace of Xituo Kingdom, the territory of Xituo Kingdom was originally larger than that of Beixin Dynasty, so it was assumed that the imperial palace would not be smaller than that of Beixin Dynasty.

There are countless palaces and gardens in the imperial palace of the Beixin Dynasty, and there are many guards. It is impossible to enter quietly, and it is even more impossible to come out safely.

It is too dangerous to enter the Xituo Palace!

Seeing Shen Qingyin's nervous face, Mu Beiyan's eyes were filled with smiles. He took her hand:

"Don't worry, I will first look for the construction plan of the palace, get the blueprint, and then make a plan. I won't rush into the palace and die. I just died in the Beixin Dynasty, and I don't want to die again in the Xituo Kingdom."

Shen Qingyin opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he couldn't utter any more.

Even with the blueprints, it would be extremely difficult to enter the palace and escape safely.

But in the current situation, if we don’t go into the palace to investigate, we won’t be able to get more information.

They came here not for themselves, but to save more people from the suffering of war.

Mu Beiyan is not her Mu Beiyan, but Bei Xin Dynasty's...

"I will personally contact the spies in the city and get the blueprints as soon as possible." After instructing Shen Qingyin to go to sleep first, Mu Beiyan left through the window again and soon disappeared into the night.

Shen Qingyin couldn't sleep at all, so he lay on the couch with his eyes open, waiting until five o'clock in the morning. The occasional shouts of hawkers could be heard outside the door, and finally Mu Beiyan came back.

Mu Beiyan, who had not slept all night, looked a little haggard, but his eyes were still deep and bright.

"You must be tired, take a rest first." Shen Qingyin didn't ask anything, just said with concern.

Mu Beiyan shook his head and sat down at the table.

"According to information obtained by spies in the city, there are two copies of the palace's construction plan, both of which are kept in the palace..."

Shen Qingyin fell silent.

You need a blueprint to enter the palace.

But the drawings happened to be in the palace.

"In this case, we can only think of other ways." Mu Beiyan frowned.

After discussing in the house, the two decided to go to the residence of Left Prime Minister Yu Wenjin to find out the news.

Yuwen Jin claimed to be ill and stayed at home. He did not attend court for many days, nor did he go out. His situation was exactly the same as that of the king Xiao Chucheng.

Since we can't go directly into the palace to investigate for the time being, it would be better to take a look at the situation in Yuwen Mansion first.

By the time I made up my mind, it was already bright.

Mu Beiyan didn't rest. He took Shen Qingyin downstairs to have breakfast in the lobby of the inn, and then went out with a few people.

Yun Wei couldn't help but feel a little worried. Would they be in danger hanging out outside in broad daylight?

If the people of Xituo knew that the great general of the Northern Xin Dynasty was in their capital, the consequences would be disastrous...

Shen Qingyin waved his hand and told her not to be too nervous.

Since they came to Lingxiao City to open up trade routes, they naturally wanted to go out for a walk.

It would be suspicious if he stayed in the inn all the time.

Besides, they were both wearing makeup and never showed their true faces.

Compared to the capital, the streets of Lingxiao City don't seem to be much different.

Shen Qingyin was sitting in the carriage, and all he saw were green tiles and red walls. There were shops lining the streets, and people were bustling about. The faces of the people, some old, some young, some weathered, some sophisticated, and some fresh, were extremely vivid in the morning sun.

"In fact, the people of Xituo are no different from the people of Beixin Dynasty. They have yellow skin and black hair, eat three meals a day, respect their parents, raise children, work hard for a living, have their own joys and sorrows, and they all hope that the country can be stable and their lives can be more prosperous." Mu Beiyan suddenly said.

"Yes, it would be great if there were no war and the people of both countries could live so comfortably forever." Shen Qingyin sighed.

But Lingxiao City was only temporarily away from the noise of war.

In a small border town thousands of miles away, the lives of the people are quite different...

"We've arrived at the Yuwen Mansion." Mu Beiyan said softly.

The Yuwen Mansion is located right in the center of the downtown area.

As the prime minister's residence, the location is naturally excellent.

The carriage stopped at the street a hundred steps away from Yuwen Mansion. The group of people looked like they were strolling leisurely, walking along the shops along the street and slowly approaching the front door of Yuwen Mansion.

Gradually, I saw that the heavy vermilion lacquered wooden door was closed. Two guards stood outside the door. They looked very majestic and shouted at passers-by to leave quickly when they approached.

Seeing a teahouse diagonally opposite the main entrance, Shen Qing used the excuse of being thirsty and led the group to the teahouse.

Just as I arrived at the door of the teahouse, I heard voices coming from the door of Yu Wen Mansion behind me.

"Please go and inform him that I am here to see Master Yuwen."

A few people turned their heads and saw a middle-aged man carrying a medicine box on his back. He looked like a doctor.

The guard looked the man up and down and said impatiently, "What do you mean by medical consultation? I think you are here to cheat people out of money. Go away! Our Lord Yuwen has his own imperial physician in the palace to treat him. He doesn't need you charlatans!"

"If the imperial physician in the palace could cure it well, how come Lord Yuwen hasn't recovered for so long? I'm not a charlatan. If you let me in, I will definitely cure Lord Yuwen." The man insisted.

The guards became even more impatient, and they both stepped forward at the same time: "Go away! If you keep talking nonsense, don't blame us for being rude!"

The man had no choice but to step back. The moment he turned around, Shen Qingyin felt that the figure was inexplicably familiar, but he couldn't figure out who it looked like.

Just as they were looking at the man, he seemed to realize that someone was looking at him and turned to look in their direction.

After seeing the people clearly, the man's eyes were full of surprise, but soon he turned around and left in a hurry.

Just when Shen Qingyin and Mu Beiyan sat down to drink tea, two children came running over laughing and playing, and inadvertently stuffed a ball of paper into Shen Qingyin's hands.
