The demon concubine of rebirth, you have been tricked by gl

Xu Shiyin talked about the past with Xia Qiulian during the day, while Yan Banting was half asleep and half awake, dreaming of many things from the previous life.

Yan Wanting didn't wake up from this dream until noon.

When he woke up, his body was soaked in cold sweat.

After going to the bathroom to take a shower and change into robes, the maid in the palace reported that Vice Commander Li was waiting in the palace.

Yan Wanting went to the main hall, Li Fengyou was standing in the hall with his back straightened like an immovable log, with his head held high and his chest held high.

Seeing Yan Wanting coming, Li Fengyou turned his neck, staring at Yan Wanting with sharp eyes.

"Your Highness."

Li Fengyou's appearance caused Yan Wanting to twitch her lips, and she leaned lazily on the reclining chair in the hall with one hand resting on her chin.

"There is good news."

"His Royal Highness, there is news from the spy in charge of spying on Jiang Xunyan. In addition to playing around in the city these few days, Jiang Xunyan went to Daming Temple not far from the city with Cao Yi yesterday. Originally, Jiang Xunyan's whereabouts were not different, but the spies discovered that Jiang Xunyan went to a closed small silk and satin shop in the west of the city the day before yesterday. Although he only stopped at the door of the silk and satin shop for a moment, he quickly left. But Uncle Yan still cautiously sent people to guard the silk and satin village, and sure enough, the people lurking in the silk and satin village discovered that two men in black appeared at the silk and satin village that night, and seemed to be rummaging for something."

Yan Wanting frowned slightly, tapped lightly on the wooden carved armrest of the rocking chair with her slender fingertips, she narrowed her eyes and thought.

"In other words, that silk and satin shop is very likely to be Jiang Xunyan's stronghold in Yanfei City. But if the man in black who went to investigate that night was sent by Jiang Xunyan, then he must not know that Why did the silk and satin shop close, and how did the people disappear? Feng You, you need to send someone to find out the details of that silk and satin shop, and it is best to find the traces of those people before Jiang Xunyan's people."

A smile flickered on the corner of Li Fengyou's lips.

"Half a year ago, under the order of His Highness, the spies from the Yinlou had been lurking in Yanfei City, secretly investigating the spies from various countries in the city, and they had never been slack. In half a year, nearly a hundred spies were purged, and now Yanfei City is very There are few spies from other countries lurking in it. Three days ago, Uncle Yan suddenly reported that there was a small silk and satin factory in the west of the city, which seemed to have secret letters with Chen Guo. Building outside building."

Yan Wanting raised her eyebrows, and looked at Li Fengyou in surprise. After a while, she flicked her hands and said with a smile.

"Haha, so, the person Jiang Xunyan was looking for was actually taken away by you by mistake."

Li Fengyou nodded.

"However, Uncle Yan said that the three of them were very stubborn. At first they pretended to be stupid and refused to admit it, but after being exposed by Uncle Yan, they began to pretend to be dumb. They never pried a word out of their mouths."

There was a breeze in front of the temple.

Yan Wanting was wearing a bright white gown, the cuffs and collar were embroidered with delicate and simple lines with silver thread, which was simple yet luxurious, and the untied blue silk hung softly behind her head, Flying and dancing with the breeze, she floats out of the dust like the beauty hermit in the painting.

She stood up with bare feet, a bright red rope was tied on her white and slender ankle, and a small and delicate silver bell hung from it.

Yan Wanting was mischievous when he was a child, and loved to hide and seek with his mother. A small glutinous rice dumpling, just find a place to sneak in, and it will take a long time for people to find it.

In desperation, the queen mother tied a small silver bell on Yan Banting's ankle, so that even if the little guy is hiding, if she moves accidentally, she will know where she is.

When she was a child, Yan Wanting hated the small bells for being noisy, so she secretly picked them off and hung them on an old pear tree.

Later, when the queen mother passed away, she climbed up the tree and put on the little bell again. Since then, she has never taken it off for a moment for more than ten years.

It's just that when I grow up, the bell doesn't seem to be as loud as before. As long as I put on the boots, no matter how much I usually jump around, the bell will stop ringing.

Only when barefoot, it will beep a few times.

Yan Wanting waved at Li Fengyou, beckoning her to follow him, and walked towards the apse.

The smooth stone slab was a little cool, but Yan Banting didn't care, the small silver bell between his ankles rang crisply when he took steps.

"You should know better than me that the selected masters have been trained in extremely harsh environments since they were young. They are tenacious, loyal, and have a will to die. Those who were sent by Jiang Xunyan from thousands of miles away , will only be better. It has been three days, and it has been difficult to prevent them from committing suicide, and I don’t expect to dig out any news from them, or maybe they don’t know anything at all.”

Li Fengyou followed behind Yan Wanting and asked softly.

"Your Highness, how to deal with those three people is the same as before."

In the past, the spy who was found and caught, stayed for a few days, and if he couldn't get news from them, he would be killed directly.

The stone slabs in the hall were wiped extremely clean. Yan Wanting walked barefoot all the way through the apse and the corridor, but there was no dust on her feet. She walked with her hands behind her back, looking at the green bamboos on both sides of the corridor, with a playful smile on her lips.

"Let's keep it for now. Keep an eye on Jiang Xunyan for the past two days. His spies suddenly disappeared. He must have guessed the reason. You know, I have always suspected that there are high-ranking officials in the court secretly colluding with Jiang Xunyan to betray the country. If The secret letter in the hands of that senior official was sent to Jiang Xunyan through the hands of these three people, so these three people are very important to Jiang Xunyan."

Li Fengyou nodded.

"Your Highness, if those three spies were the ones who sent them the letter, and we caught them by accident, will Jiang Xunyan secretly contact that traitorous high-ranking official?"

Yan Wanting thought for a moment, then shook his head.

"At this time, they will be more cautious. However, according to Jiang Xunyan's scheming temperament, he may know that there are tigers in the mountain and go to the tiger mountain. Therefore, you should investigate Jiang Xunyan's current whereabouts more closely. Where you have been, who you have seen, and any strange behaviors, please report to me."

"Impossible to take orders."

In the east corner of Yanfei City, Wangshan Hall.

The man in the bodyguard's clothes knelt down in front of Jiang Xunyan trembling slightly.

"My lord, the people sent out yesterday did not find the three of them."

Jiang Xunyan put away the folding fan in his hand, a stern expression appeared on his gentle face, he slightly lowered his head to look at the guard kneeling on the ground, a trace of sullenness flashed in his deep eyes, he snorted coldly.

"Idiot, who told you to look for it?"

"My lord... The lord came back yesterday. Didn't I... Didn't I say that the spies from the silk and satin village disappeared."

Jiang Xunyan stared blankly at the trembling guard with cold sweat dripping from his forehead.

"The king said that people are missing. When did he tell you to look for them? They will disappear for no reason. They must be found and taken away. The people who took them may just stand by and wait for you to be as stupid as you." People who have thrown themselves into the trap, maybe you were targeted by someone last night, followed by a few tails, swaggeringly followed behind you, and arrived here."

The guard shook his head, his face was pale and his eyes were empty.

"My lord, when I came back from my humble position, I didn't find... I didn't find anyone following behind me."

Jiang Xunyan raised his head and closed his eyes with a helpless smile.

"Who brought you idiot, Xiao Ling, call Ye Qingxian over."

The little girl who was holding the teapot put down the teapot in a panic, turned around and ran out quickly.

"The slave is going here."

Jiang Xunyan turned his neck slightly, Ruyu's gentle gentleman's face showed a bit of hostility, he opened his eyes, and his eyes were full of hatred.

"Do you know that the three people in the silk and satin village were cultivated by the king with so much effort. The three of them died, how many people should I send to replace them in order to send three people to replace them. Just upset, but you, a smart fool, dare to make trouble for this king at this juncture."

The guard's face was pale, and he immediately began to kowtow desperately, his forehead bone hit the hard stone slab heavily, blood stains came out after a while.

"My lord, spare my life, my lord, spare my life, I will never dare to be humble again."

Maybe he was wrong, yesterday he followed Jiang Xunyan and followed Jiang Xunyan to the silk and satin shop.

After returning home, Jiang Xunyan said softly in front of him.

"He's gone, heh, where can he go?"

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand lightly.

The guards thought that Jiang Xunyan wanted him to look for someone, and at night, they said that they had accepted Jiang Xunyan's verbal order and wanted to go out to look for someone.

His heart was beating wildly in his chest, and he didn't feel the pain on his forehead at all, because he was already overwhelmed by the huge sense of fear at this moment.

His forehead suddenly felt cold, and the kowtowing guard stopped his movements. He slowly widened his eyes and raised his head slowly.

Those were a pair of scarlet evil eyes, containing endless killing intent, which made people instinctively fear.

"what..."

The guard slightly opened his lips and dilated his pupils, but before he could make a sound, he felt a pain in his throat, and blood splashed from his neck.

On the bone of Jiang Xunyan's folding fan, at some point, a blade as thin as a piece of paper appeared. The sharp blade easily cut the guard's throat, and Jiang Xunyan took it back without a trace of blood.

The cut wound gushed out bright red blood crazily. The guard's eyes widened, and he reached out to grab his throat, as if trying to stop the bleeding for himself, but the wound was too deep, and blood oozed from his fingers. The clothes on his chest were soaked.

After a while, he twisted his body, struggled on the ground like a painful earthworm for a while, and then slowly fell silent, his eyes widened in pain and despair, and he died stiffly.

Jiang Xunyan looked coldly at the bleak dead body lying in front of him, glanced at the corner of his lips in disgust, picked up a white brocade handkerchief from the table beside him, and gently wiped the skin of the dead guard who had just touched it. folding fan.

"Abject fool."
