Returning to you in the depths of the white clouds

Another drop of water fell from the stalactite above the cave and slid into Xu Yuqing's neck, making him shiver.

"I don't know if the road that She Gui walked is also so damp, and the dripping water on it makes your head wet... Why do you think this road goes deeper and deeper into the ground?" Xu Yuqing muttered a few words, looked up and saw Gu Linfeng only looking at the front Kailu: "Hey, are your shoes still in order? Are they leaking?"

First of all, the two found a new pair of shoes in the "fake treasure house", which happened to be emergency shoes for Gu Linfeng.And She Gui was really cautious in doing things, after sneaking into that small door, somehow the passage was closed from the other side, so the two of them had to find another stone door to open, and walked up this damp path.

"Alright." Gu Linfeng cherishes words like gold.

"Hey," Xu Yuqing smiled behind him, "Did you come out now and start to regret telling me everything?"

Gu Linfeng turned around when he heard the words: "What does 'hey' look like one mouthful at a time, called Senior Brother."

Xu Yuqing "hissed" and raised his eyebrows, but saw the person in front of him smile: "I'll tell you, I don't have to hold back my words and I have to be angry with you."

It was rare for him to joke, but Xu Yuqing couldn't laugh.Thinking of what he had heard before, he felt somewhat sorry for Gu Linfeng.After waiting for a while, he asked another question: "Speaking of which, you already knew that the Five Sacred Treasure House was near Shengzhou, and you also knew that the people behind the scenes were related to the Pylori Dark Guard, so what are you looking for in this adventure?"

"clue."

"...Aren't you talking nonsense?" Xu Yuqing felt that the "I'm sorry" in her heart was about to disappear.

"I originally thought that the pylorus guards were going after the "Five Sages", so they focused on finding people who were close to Fu Sheng back then, but he is too mysterious, and this line is very difficult to follow. I had no choice but to turn around and investigate the hidden guards of the pylorus, but there are too many things involved in this group of people, it is difficult to see which line is directly related to Fu Sheng's matter, and it is often a waste of effort to investigate. Later, by chance By coincidence, I discovered a subtle connection."

Gu Linfeng stopped in his tracks, checked the surroundings to make sure it was safe, and then finished speaking: "The connection between the Five Sages and the Pylori Dark Guard is Hua Jingchun."

"Could it be that Hua Jingchun is a member of the pylorus secret guard?" Xu Yuqing immediately thought of this.

Gu Linfeng nodded: "He defected from the pylorus secret guard, the inner guard eunuch."

"It's actually like this..." Thinking that Hua Jingchun was famous for his indistinguishable beauty and charming skills in the Jianghu, Xu Yuqing didn't think it was surprising, "But it's not right, could it be that Hua Jingchun is the same as She Gui?" , when he defected, he stole some key things from the Pylori Dark Guard? But if this is the case, he would have been killed by the people in the Pylori Dark Guard when he became famous in the Jianghu. After that, ran to hunt down Fu Sheng who was related to him?"

"I can't figure it out either. But before I could figure it out, there was news about the presence of the Five Sacred Treasure House. I guessed that there must be key clues here, and maybe I could meet someone from the Pylori Dark Guard, so I came here .”

"Speaking of this," Xu Yuqing began to analyze: "The fact that the news got out is even more tricky. If Bai Er got the news first, they must be the first to tell me. But the way of this matter Before Zhongming reported to the top, the news had already spread. According to what we thought before, the imperial court should have wanted to block the news, but after seeing that they couldn’t get rid of this treasure house, they released the news to attract people in the world Come here for a try—it’s unreasonable, the pyloric guards have so many capable people in their hands, plus there are many clues of the Five Saints and fragments of books, it seems that they don’t want to pass this letter on. Just let it out. Unless..."

He thought of something, and when he raised his eyes, Gu Linfeng also turned his head: "You are right, the pyloric guards will never want to spread this news. The one who releases this news must be someone who opposes them. "

Xu Yuqing nodded as if understanding: "Then, Chen Jiong and Chen Zongbing should be from the East Palace."

These years of court battles, people who are far away in the rivers and lakes have also heard of them, and because of the background of Yingxiang Tower, Xu Yuqing knows the way inside it very well.The emperor is old, and his health is getting worse and worse these years, and the battle between the crown prince and King Chen seems to be a final conclusion.

#VALUE! Dali's current crown prince is born to a queen, and the queen's family is also from a general.In his early years, the first emperor had already gathered the power of the military and generals into his own hands, and he also trained the pyloric dark guards who directly obeyed his orders.In order to appease the generals, the first emperor arranged a lot of rich and idle jobs for their children.This is how the queen was arranged to marry the prince at the time, now the emperor.It's a pity that the arranged marriage was not satisfactory, and the emperor didn't like the queen.After she gave birth to her son, the emperor became more indulgent and kept a respectful distance from the queen when he had the confession of his son.Depressed by this, she died young.Although the emperor made this son the crown prince, he never got close to him.Two years ago, the prince had a dispute with the emperor because he mentioned his mother, and was ordered to be banned for a year, almost being deposed.Thanks to pleading with the elders first, he was spared.In the past two years, the prince can be said to have acted in a low-key manner, wisely protecting himself.

King Chen is different from the prince.The concubine Yuan, the mother of King Chen, was favored by the sage not long after she entered the palace. In addition, her father and brother were both civil servants, so she was highly appreciated by the sage.After the empress passed away, Concubine Yuan actually ruled the six palaces, and her son was raised under the emperor's knees.It is said that the pyloric guards around the emperor also supported King Chen.The emperor fell ill once last year, and it is said that he has the intention of canonizing the concubine Yuan as the successor empress.If the canonization is really successful, King Chen will have the status of his son, and the status of the prince will be even more precarious.

Chen Jiong is a member of the general family, and he is inextricably linked with the East Palace. He was sent to the remote Southwest Shengzhou these years, and he probably felt suffocated.What the pyloric guards wanted to investigate, they found clues by accident, so why should they fight against each other?Just spread the news by yourself, the bigger the trouble, the better.

"Looking at it this way, it is possible that Chen Jiong was called back to report on his duties, and it is possible that he really angered King Chen and transferred him away."

Gu Linfeng also nodded in agreement: "But Chen Jiong's good command of the army is not in vain. I don't think there will be too many pyloric guards who can sneak in this time. This is good for us."

Xu Yuqing gave a "hmm" as a response, and then stepped on a small puddle on the ground: "You don't need to look around, this road is too wet, and all the organs are rusted, it's not too dangerous, there should be some way ahead, I Why do you hear the sound of water?"

"Yes, I heard that too."
