Xia Qiulian said to go, and really led Qingyuan and Luruan back.

Yan Wanting stayed with Jun Xiaozui, and sent her maid A Su to escort them back together.

After a while, Zhao Xiu was called away by Jun Xiaozui's boss, Jun Xiao.

In the huge wing room, Yan Banting was the only one left in the blink of an eye.

Before drinking two cups of tea, A Su came back and reported to Yan Banting respectfully.

"Your Highness, Concubine Xian has safely arrived at Yunliu Palace."

"Well, that's good."

Yan Wanting's lips were frivolous, her phoenix eyes were clear, and she looked in a good mood.

"A Su, ask people to prepare an extra sedan chair tomorrow, and I have invited Miss Zhaoxiu to go to Qingzhou together."

Aso asked suspiciously.

"Your Highness, if this is the case, then Miss Zhaoxiu will know the identity of His Highness."

Yan Wanting put down the teacup, got up and walked to a screen in the corner of the wing room, she turned her head to look at A Su, and said calmly.

"She is a smart person. The timing of Bengong's visit to Jun Xiaozui is so coincidental. She has already guessed Bengong's identity."

A Su followed and walked to Yan Wanting's side.

"But didn't your Highness say that Miss Zhaoxiu can't be trusted?"

Yan Wanting nodded, and stretched out his hand to push away the beautiful screen. Behind the screen was a wooden cabinet as tall as a person.

"Her identity, I have sent people to investigate, and there is nothing unusual. Not only that, but also innocent, there is nothing suspicious."

Aso frowned.

"Your Highness, the secret works sent from other countries are all very clean."

"Ah."

Yan Wanting nodded, and stretched out his hand to open the door of the wooden cabinet by the wall. The wooden cabinet was empty, with nothing in it.

But she reached out and groped in the wooden cabinet for a while, and then heard a click, and the wooden cabinet was gently moved aside, revealing a stone door that could only allow one person to pass through.

Yan Wanting pushed open the stone door and walked in.

A Su looked around vigilantly, pressed the switch, and followed in.

The wooden cabinet was slowly closed.

The room was empty.

Passing through the dark tunnel, a ray of light appeared in front of him, Yan Banting walked towards the place of light with his hands behind his back.

In the dark and silent tunnel, even the sound of footsteps echoed.

At the end of the dark passage, this is a small dark room, and there are two closed stone doors on the side, and it is unknown where they lead.

In the dark room, there is a big bookcase, which is full of files with bamboo slips hanging on it, and a man in green clothes is standing in the dark room, bowing his hands respectfully to Yan Banting from a distance.

"Humble gentleman laughs, I have seen His Highness."

"Mr. Jun, you don't need to be too polite."

Jun Xiao is young, in his twenties, with healthy wheat-colored skin, and a handsome and heroic appearance.

With a long sword on his back, he doesn't look at all like a businessman who runs a restaurant, but rather a handsome knight-errant who runs the rivers and lakes.

Yan Wanting looked around, sighed softly, looked at Jun Xiao with a complicated expression, and said regretfully.

"It's really Mr. Lao who lives in this small restaurant."

Jun Xiao looked solemn, looked at Yan Wanting firmly with his eyes, bowed slightly, and said respectfully.

"It is my honor to serve Your Highness, and it is my honor to serve the country of Yan."

"I will remember what Mr. Jun did for the country of Yan. After killing those rebels who coveted my Yan, I will ask for orders like my father and canonize Mr. Jun as the great general to protect the country."

"Your Highness, it is enough to be loyal to the country with a humble position, how can you be greedy for an official position?"

Jun Xiao's upright and dignified appearance made Yan Wanting nod in appreciation, and she asked A Su to take out a small porcelain bottle.

Give Jun Xiao the Qingfeng Pill inside.

Enough of the polite talk about reunion after a long absence, the two began to talk about serious business.

Jun Xiao took out a small wooden box from the bookcase at the side, which contained the secret letter just sent from Jiang Guo.

"Your Highness, this is the secret letter from Vice Commander Li that I received from Jiang Guo yesterday. Please read it, Your Highness."

Jun Xiaozui is a well-known restaurant in Jiangdu Prefecture, and it is also an important transit point for Yan Banting's intelligence network.

You Jun Xiao sits here.

A Su carefully took out a piece of white paper as thin as a cicada's wing from the small wooden box. There was not even a trace of ink on the clean white paper.

A Su took out a small jade bottle from her bosom, and carefully poured a drop of light green, fragrant liquid onto the paper.

The drop of light green liquid has already fainted at an extremely fast speed.

Soon, on the white paper with nothing on it, tiny seals appeared bit by bit.

Yan Wanting took the paper from A Su, and there were only a few lines written on it, which Yan Wanting was very familiar with.

Letter written by Li Fengyou.

"Quickly report to Your Highness, Jiang Huang has just recovered from a serious illness. He is weak and full of fire, and he may collapse."

The long and narrow phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, a dark light flashed in them, and Yan Banting's lips curled into a smile.

"Jiang Guo is about to be in chaos, and the opportunity has come."

Jun Xiao stood aside, and whispered with some doubts.

"Your Highness means."

He had never read Li Fengyou's secret letter.

If it was a secret letter from elsewhere, he would have to consider and pick out some important news before delivering it to Yan Palace.But if it is a private letter written by Li Fengyou, he cannot open it without authorization, and must hand it to Yan Banting first.

Yan Wanting gently handed the paper that was as thin as a cicada's wing and half the size of a palm to the burning candle beside it.

The sudden flash of flames illuminated Yan Wanting's stern side face.

"The old emperor of Jiang Guo is about to pass away. If Jiang Xunyan wants to win the throne, he must get rid of the prince first. The prince is definitely not Jiang Xunyan's opponent, but the palace has already arranged several guests for the prince of Jiang Guo, and Let them fight first. During this period of time, Jiang Xunyan's thoughts must be on Jiang Guo, and this palace will have time to thoroughly investigate these court officials to see who is collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country. .”

"The mice in the rice jar should all be caught."

After explaining some things to Jun Xiao, Yan Wanting brought up the matter of Zhaoxiu.

It's just that Jun Xiao's attitude is somewhat beyond Yan Wanting's expectations.

Jun Xiao asked nervously and anxiously.

"Your Highness wants to take Zhaoxiu to Qingzhou. Didn't Your Highness say that her identity is not doubtful?"

Yan Wanting glanced at Jun Xiao lightly, just looking at Jun Xiao's nervous expression, she guessed something in her heart.

"Her background was found to be innocent, but it was too innocent. Although I haven't found any evidence that she was a secret agent, you should know that she did do everything possible to design into Jun Xiaozui. No matter who sent her For those who come, let her stay in Jun Xiaozui, it is always a hidden danger."

Jun Xiao gritted his teeth and bowed his head, begging with a somewhat embarrassed and complicated expression.

"If there is really no evidence, I only hope that His Highness can give Chaoxiu a chance, even if it means expelling her from the Yan Kingdom. If it is found out that she is really a spy, then please Your Highness, let the humble official do it himself, and end her life."

Yan Wanting's gentle eyes cooled down bit by bit, she stared at Jun Xiao with her head down for a long time, then closed her eyes and sighed, and said helplessly.

"Mr. Jun, I originally thought that you had no desires or desires. Since when did you start, you have been moved."

Jun Xiao lowered his head even lower, and his back, which was always straight, bent a little, he half smiled and half helplessly said.

"Your Highness, you should know that you can't help yourself."

"Of course I know, but Mr. must have heard a sentence, the word love misleads people."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Wanting left in a flick of his sleeves.

However, she didn't say that to herself just now.

The word love is really misleading.

It was already late at night when we returned to Yunliu Palace, Yan Wanting didn't go to his room, but went to Xia Qiulian's door first.

She stood by the door with a complicated face. She never called the door, nor was she notified, but just stood there for a while.

Looking at the thin figure printed on the door and on the white window paper.

Sure enough, I was reading again.

Is it because I am idle and bored, or because I am really interested in books.

Today I went to Jun Xiaozui and met Zhaoxiu, Yan Wanting really wanted to get closer to Zhaoxiu on purpose.

I just want to see how Xia Qiulian reacts. I originally thought that Xia Qiulian would still be the same as before, and he didn't care about it.

But she didn't want to let her see Xia Qiulian's first emotional expression.

She was indeed happy.

It's like secretly lying in the mother's bedroom when I was young, pretending to be asleep.

The queen mother hugged her on the bed helplessly, and gently patted her back to coax her to sleep.

The feeling of joy that seems to have won the whole world is pure and natural.

If it was the previous life, she should have rushed into Xia Qiulian's room at this time, looked at Xia Qiulian eagerly, hugged her tightly, or pressed her on the bed presumptuously, and asked her proudly.

"You are tempted by me, otherwise how could you dislike Miss Zhaoxiu?"

But now, she can no longer be so unscrupulous.

She stood in front of Xia Qiulian's door, looking at Xia Qiulian's figure without moving.

Watching her turn every page of the book, watching her occasionally gently raise her hand to pull the falling strand of blue hair behind her ear.

She really loves this woman, loves her like life, but she is always unwilling to love her still.

Like a lunatic wrestling left and right, neither love nor hate.

Xia Qiulian had known for a long time that Yan Wanting was outside the door.

It's just that if she doesn't come in, Xia Qiulian won't invite her in person.

If you don't come in, don't come in, if you like to stand at the door, then stand at the door.

Xia Qiulian thought so depressedly, then lowered her head and continued to read her book.

It's just that the words on the book suddenly became lively, running around on the scroll, eyes can't catch them no matter what.

She smiled wryly and shook her head.

Maybe she never told Yan Wanting.

Be it the previous life or the present life, she, Yan Banting, is really the only one who can make her unable to calm down and read a book.

Xia Qiulian didn't know when she lost her concentration. She stood up, thinking that she should open the door first.

That person can't get in.

Just standing up, a soft sigh came from outside the door.

Xia Qiulian was stunned.

The people outside turned around and left.
