In the main hall of Mount Li, the Eastern Emperor praised the moon god who successfully brought back Ji Ru.

"This time you did a good job and lived up to my expectations."

"It is His Excellency Donghuang who pointed out Ji Ru's location, so that his subordinates can successfully take the blame and do meritorious service." Moon God quickly gave the credit to Donghuang.

Donghuang nodded and didn't say anything. In fact, this time, no matter whether he asked Xinghun to bring Shao Siming back alone or Yueshen brought back Ji Ru alone, it was his temptation to Zhuixuelou.I don't know if Xinghun and Yueshen knew what he meant, but they did get what they wanted from Zhuixuelou and completed the task.

"What else did you discover, let's talk about it together." Donghuang looked at Moon God who hesitated to speak, and said.

"Here." Luna bowed his head, "Xinghun didn't tell his subordinates where Shao Siming was, but he went straight to the Taibai Mountain area near Chen Cang after he got the news from Zhuixuelou. He was taken away by the Thirteenth Taibao. But when they found the Mohist stronghold this time, the subordinates found that there were no traces of fighting around the stronghold. Then how the Thirteenth Taibao took Shao Siming away is worth thinking about.”

Having said this, Moon God looked up at Donghuang, seeing that Donghuang didn't intend to speak, so he had no choice but to continue talking about his guess.

"Whether it was the stronghold that Bai Feng brought Shao Siming to, or the stronghold that Ji Ru brought back this time, there were no signs of new battles. The Thirteenth Taibao took away the Mo family without fighting with the Mo family and others. The most likely reason for the hostages over there is that they had a tacit agreement with those rebels."

"Do you suspect that the group of rebels hired the Thirteenth Taibao to collect information about Canglong Qisu and kidnap Jiru from Mount Li?" Donghuang finally said.

"Yes, only the anti-Qin forces have reason to be interested in Canglong Qisu, and only Jing Tianming and the others want to rob Jiru." Luna nodded, "The Thirteenth Taibao never intervenes in royal family disputes. It's strange. The subordinates found this in Ji Ru's house."

Moon God took out the silk cloth with the map of Lishan Mountain and offered it to him with both hands. Donghuang stretched out his hand to guide it, and the silk cloth floated out of thin air and floated in front of him.

"Some parts of the handwriting on it are very similar to Xinghun's, but it wasn't completely drawn by him." Luna speculated, "My subordinates are worried that Xinghun also has a tacit understanding with those rebels."

Donghuang was silent and did not speak, but there was a sneer from outside the hall.

"Master Luna is so loyal, why didn't you come and ask me directly?"

Moon God turned her head, Xinghun brought Shao Siming over step by step, and stood side by side with her to salute Donghuang.

"Your Excellency the East Emperor."

"Exemption."

There was no emotion in Donghuang's voice, obviously waiting for Xinghun's explanation.

"It is true that I modified the map. Since the mind reading technique can't read anything useful from the mind of the Tai Bao who fell into my hands, and I can't leave empty-handed and let the Emperor commit crimes against the Yin-Yang family, the Chasing Snow Building is the best place to go." Isn't it a good choice?" Xinghun turned his head to look at Moon God.

"So, you traded Xiang Ye Liuhua for the position of the Thirteenth Taibao?" Moon God frowned secretly.

At that time, everyone only knew that Xinghun drove the Taibao out of Xianyang, but no one knew whether he had found Ye Liuhua or not.

Looking at the quiet Shao Siming behind Xinghun, Luna gave up the idea of ​​asking her if it was true or not.When Shao Siming failed to complete the task, Xinghun did a lot to intercede for her and help her deal with the aftermath. The entire Yin-Yang family's senior management knew that Xinghun was extremely tolerant only towards Young Master Siming, who naturally favored Xinghun more.

"That's right, as for why this map fell into the hands of those rebels, you have to ask Zhuixuelou." Xinghun joked, "Young Master Liuhua will not easily meet ordinary disciples, and those rebels have long since Even the most wanted criminals of the empire dare not enter Xianyang either. If they hadn't used the disguise technique to deceive the people in the city, there must be someone else in communication between Zhuixuelou and them."

The fact that Xinghun has always played the role of vanguard in suppressing bandits first made Donghuang and Yueshen dispel his idea of ​​secretly communicating with Gai Nie and others.Ge Nie was the one who cut off his tendons, Xing Hun is not a big-hearted person, not seeking revenge on Ge Nie is already a general manifestation of consciousness.

Moon God's eyes froze, and what Xinghun said was also her guess: "Thirteen Taibao."

"Liusha is originally an organization of assassins. It shouldn't be difficult to find the Thirteenth Taibao who is also an assassin."

It's rare for Xinghun not to contradict Moon God, and he is happy to see that he can lead Moon God away from Donghuang by the way.

Shao Si Ming on the other side heaved a sigh of relief. Her worry all the way was now finally unnecessary. Xing Hun lived up to Ye Liuhua's foreshadowing. His attention was drawn back to the Thirteenth Taibao.

"From what you can see, who exactly is Ye Liuhua, and what kind of existence is Zhuixuelou?"

Donghuang said, but his eyes turned to Xinghun.The fact that Xinghun and Ye Liuhua spent a "drunk night" in Zhuixuelou together, of course he couldn't hide it from him.

Xinghun secretly sighed, Ye Liuhua allowed him to rest at ease for the night, but brought him countless troubles afterwards.

"Ye Liuhua is good at martial arts, and his cultivation level is not low." Xinghun considered the words, "The strength should be higher than that of Elder Yinyang."

Deceiving Donghuang Taiyi and Luna completely will make them suspicious, not to mention that Luna has also seen Ye Liuhua and even fought against each other with a mind-controlling spell, so it is easier to cover up half-truths and half-falsehoods.

"The rumors in the rivers and lakes are indeed inaccurate." Luna nodded, "My mind-controlling spell doesn't work on him, and the personal guard beside him is not ordinary."

Shao Siming looked at Xinghun, would it make Donghuang want to kill Ye Liuhua?

"And..." Xinghun looked up at Donghuang, "Zhuixuelou already knows my identity."

"So, he wants to threaten the Yinyang family?" Luna asked looking at Xinghun.

Although Donghuang was a little surprised, he was not too surprised.Since Zhuixuelou could get the Lishan map, although it was not that accurate, it was enough to prove that their intelligence channels and guards were quite powerful.

"Master Luna is worrying too much." Xinghun dismissed it.

"No matter how you look at it, you don't seem to be able to spend a night with outsiders." Moon God was aggressive and questioned Xinghun.

"Probably because he and I have similar situations, and when he sees me, he thinks of himself."

Xinghun snorted ambiguously, and turned to look at Donghuang: "Your Excellency Donghuang, on the way back, my subordinates found the man in the trap, and the imperial envoy must be on his way to Mount Li at this moment."

Donghuang knew about Hu Hai's gift of marriage to Xinghun, and also knew what Zhao Gao was planning, but he also had no way to refuse this marriage in a fair and honest way.

The Yin-Yang family is not a state religion, and Hu Hai is not a corporal of virtuous persons, so the excuse that the Yin-Yang family does not allow emotions is useless.Now, not only could he not refuse, but he even wanted to give the emperor a huge gift at the wedding ceremony given by Xinghun to show his gratitude for the emperor's great love.

Seeing Donghuang Taiyi's silent look, Xinghun suddenly smiled with unknown meaning.

"Since His Excellency the Eastern Emperor has no choice, it seems that the subordinates can only marry the princess."

Shao Siming's heart gradually sank.When Xinghun threw this question to Donghuang Taiyi just now, she still had hope that Donghuang would have a way to refuse the marriage for Xinghun, but now her last hope has finally come to nothing.

"Remember that you are still the Left Protector of the Yin Yang Family." Donghuang said slowly.

Xing Hun didn't say anything, he bowed and left the hall with a flick of his sleeves.

Seeing Xinghun and Shao Siming leave, Luna raised his head and asked for instructions: "Your Excellency Donghuang, what about the relationship between Ye Liuhua and the Thirteen Taibao..."

"Over the years, too many courtiers of the Great Qin Dynasty have been murdered in vain. I'm afraid it's impossible to find out whose family Ye Liuhua belongs to." The Eastern Emperor Taiyi shook his head, "First, go and select some young female disciples from my Yinyang family to dedicate to the new generation. Your Majesty, if you take this opportunity to comfort our people in the palace, this marriage gift is not too bad."

"Here." Luna bowed.

....................................

The Zuo Dharma Hall was tidied up by the puppets as always, and it was also as deserted and lifeless as before.

At the end of summer and early autumn, the sound of cicadas also reveals a little sadness.Xinghun stood in the back hall with his hands behind his back, his face was calm and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Yuan hurried over, seeing the prison net on Xinghun's waist, Ling was obviously taken aback, but still bowed to salute.

"See Young Master."

Xinghun noticed the change of Yuan's title. It seems that Ye Liuhua had already told the entire prison network about his identity, but he was only hiding it from him for the time being.

"Excuse me." Xinghun didn't turn his head back, "during my absence, did anything else happen to the Yinyang family?"

Yuan thought for a while, and replied respectfully: "The Eastern Emperor doesn't seem to be doing anything else, but there is news from the hall master that the chief commander has been secretly investigating the young master."

Xinghun sneered: "Sure enough, he has already set his mind on Zhuixuelou."

Yuan hesitated: "This subordinate believes that the young master must have a way to deal with the investigation of the Yin Yang family, but the hall master's side is a bit tricky..."

"Say." Xinghun frowned.

"A few days ago, Da Si Ming tested the hall master, and the hall master inferred that Da Si Ming has become suspicious." Yuan replied, "It's strange that Da Si Ming has never exposed this matter."

Xinghun frowned even more when he heard this, Feng Xuanyin pretended to be a disciple who also served Da Si Ming all the year round, Da Si Ming should be very familiar with the original disciple.In addition, she is also proficient in disguise, so it is only a matter of time before she realizes that something is wrong.

But Da Si Ming didn't expose it after probing, which made Xing Hun a little confused about what she wanted to do, did she choose to keep it secret for her own sake?

Temporarily suppressing the doubts in his heart, Xinghun continued to ask: "Has the imperial envoy come to Mount Li?"

"Yes, the Eastern Emperor Taiyi also agreed to let the lord enter the palace to face the saint when the young master comes back."

"Heh." Xing Hun sneered, "It took more than a month to go back and forth, Zhao Gao was so eager to give me the status of a son-in-law and killed me."
