After Princess Lingbi heard about Dong Lushan's rebellion, she was very anxious and began to visit people with lofty ideals in the capital, hoping that everyone could unite and find a way to deal with the rebels.
It's just that the power of this group of people is really limited. Although the young people never lack enthusiasm, they have no power in their hands and can't solve the problem from the root.
In addition, the performance of the current imperial court is really disappointing, and many people hope that such an imperial court will be destroyed soon.
In this way, Princess Lingbi's actions can be said to hit obstacles everywhere and make no progress anywhere.
In just three days from the first to the third day of the lunar new year, Princess Lingbi had gray hair on her temples. She became haggard and lost a lot of weight. It was really heart-wrenching to see.
Zhao Yuwan couldn't help, so she could only ask Ye Ming to help find a way.
In this regard, Ye Ming said that the general trend of the world is turbulent and cannot be reversed by individuals.
Faced with such an answer, Zhao Yuwan used a gaffeful, almost pleading attitude, asking Ye Ming to help Princess Lingbi.
Even Ye Ming's gourd was not kept and he chose to return it to him.
Everyone is like this, what else can Ye Ming say?
He immediately said that he was going to go to the palace tonight. Of course, he would not go to the palace openly, but secretly.
The palace is not something that ordinary people can easily sneak into. Ye Ming found Wa Shangfei who had been living happily for a few days.
At this time, Wa Shangfei looked like he had seen through the world of mortals. Everything was not in his heart, and all the beauties were just red and pink skeletons, which did not move the heart at all. He did not even care about Lei Ling's absence.
But after hearing Ye Ming say that he wanted to sneak into the palace, Wa Shangfei was still frightened and was forced to withdraw from the state of seeing through the world.
Just kidding, he was caught even after sneaking into a prince's mansion. If Ye Ming hadn't rescued him, he would have been in jail in the capital. Now if he sneaks into the palace, what's the difference between that and courting death?
But Ye Ming had already made it clear to Zhao Yuwan that he would visit the palace tonight, so naturally he would not break his promise.
The main reason for flying on the tiles is to learn some hiding skills.
Because there are many methods for targeting extraordinary powers in the palace, in many cases, mortal methods are more useful.
At this time, it makes people miss the time when they had the help of the Thief Saint.
He is also a thief, but Wah Shangfei is not even the slightest bit worse than the Thief Saint.
Wa Shangfei planned for a long time, but he didn't come up with an effective strategy, which was a bit disappointing.
As if aware of Ye Ming's disappointment in him, Wa Shangfei also felt that this was too embarrassing, and immediately decided to go outside the palace to see if there was any chance.
This time Ye Ming also chose to go along.
Not long after walking on the road, Ye Ming accidentally spotted an acquaintance.
A young scholar-looking man carrying a suitcase and cage was coming out of an inn.
"Brother Wuhuan? Nice to meet you!"
The person in front of me is Zhuang Nan, who is determined to travel all over the mountains and rivers.
Zhuang Nan was also surprised to see Ye Ming, and the two started talking.
The reason why Zhuang Nan appeared in the capital was due to good luck or bad luck.
After they separated, Zhuang Nan went to climb a dangerous peak and cliff.
Accidentally, I fell down. I was very lucky. I didn't fall to death, but I hurt my leg.
Fortunately, a caravan passed by and saved his life, otherwise he would have been fed to the wild wolves in the mountains.
"Don't you think it's strange? In the past, when I broke my leg, it would take at least a few months to recover, but this time, it only took a few days..."
Zhuang Nan patted his leg which had returned to normal, feeling a little puzzled.
The reason for this is naturally the result of a delicious aquatic meal at Xinjun Lake.
But Ye Ming didn't explain anything to him, he just asked:
"Where are you going, brother Wuhuan?"
“Of course I’m leaving the capital, the prices in the capital are extremely expensive.
I only have a little money, and I still want to save it to visit a few more great places, but I can't waste it on places like this. "
"Brother Wuhuan is traveling over mountains and ridges. He should encounter all kinds of strange peaks and dangerous rocks. I wonder what method he used to get through?"
"Then there are many methods, whatever is useful, there is no dangerous place in this world that I can't get through."
Speaking of this, Zhuang Nan was very confident and wanted to tell Ye Ming about his glorious achievements.
Ye Ming didn't waste much time and said directly:
"I wonder if Brother Wuhuan is interested in visiting the palace?"
“The Royal Palace... is not a natural landscape, but I heard that the design is so ingenious that I want to take a look.
It’s just that this place cannot be entered by ordinary people. "
"What if we sneak in secretly?"
"No, Brother Yang, I still want to live a few more years and see more of the sights in this world."
"Hey~~Brother Wuhuan, are people like you still afraid of death?
Let me tell you, the design of the palace..."
Ye Ming praised the palace so much that Zhuang Nan's heart was beating.
"How about it, Brother Wuhuan, do you want to go and see it together?"
Listening to Ye Ming's bewitching voice, Zhuang Nan was completely moved.
"Then, let's go take a look."
Seeing Zhuang Nan agree, Ye Ming was delighted, knowing that he was more sure of the success of the matter.
He immediately went outside the palace with Zhuang Nan and Wa Shangfei to observe the situation.
Wa Shangfei looked down on Zhuang Nan when a guy suddenly appeared to steal the limelight.
In his opinion, how could a person who could break his leg climbing a mountain be better than a famous snitch like himself?
He wants to prove himself and must find a way to enter the palace soon.
After observing for a while outside the palace, Wa Shangfei looked frustrated.
"Impossible, it is impossible to sneak into the palace.
Not only is the wall high and the city thick, it is also very slippery and cannot be climbed, and there are forbidden troops patrolling it from time to time.
Unless you use magic to become invisible and fly up, don't even think about getting in! "
In Wa Shangfei's opinion, such a palace is impossible to enter.
In Ye Ming's eyes, there are various restrictions, formations, and treasures in the palace. If you dare to cast spells easily and try to sneak in, you will definitely pay the price for your recklessness.
At this time, Zhuang Nan touched his chin and said:
"I thought it would be difficult, but that's it. It's not as difficult as the mountain I climbed last time."
When Wa Shangfei heard this, his face was full of doubts:
"You scholar, don't talk nonsense. This is the palace, the most difficult place in the world to sneak into. If you can sneak in successfully, I will eat all the shit in the latrine!"
Zhuang Nan heard this and looked at Wa Shangfei with a smile:
"You said that yourself."
"..."
Inexplicably, Wa Shangfei felt guilty, and then shook his head, no way, such a scholar-looking guy couldn't succeed.
When he was making his own way in the world, he was still playing in the mud!
After looking at the palace wall a few more times, Zhuang Nan said to Ye Ming:
“We need to prepare some things, and we’ll be fine if we come back in the evening.
By the way, I don’t have to spend the money to buy things. "
Ye Ming pointed to the tile and said, "Let him go out."
Seeing this, Wa Shangfei also nodded.
Having been a snitch all his life, he wanted to know what ability this man had to sneak into the palace.
Soon, under the leadership of Zhuang Nan, they bought a lot of things.
The main ones were three pieces of cotton cloth that could be used to wrap oneself up, and a pile of plasterboards used by plasterers.
In addition, I bought a lot of various plants from drug stores, flower shops and other places.
"What are these things for?"
Wa Shangfei knew all kinds of climbing equipment well, and he thought Zhuang Nan would make some new flying hooks or something like that, but he didn't expect that there was just such a pile of things that didn't look like they could be used for climbing.
Zhuang Nan didn't explain anything and started taking action directly.
Squeeze the juices from various plants and put them in a bucket.
After it was almost done, he used another method to squeeze out a bunch of plant juice and spread it on three pieces of cotton cloth.
"alright."
Zhuang Nan looked at the three pieces of cotton cloth and nodded with satisfaction.
Wa Shangfei looked at the cotton cloth that had just changed color, with a puzzled look on his face.
Seeing his puzzled look, Zhuang Nan said:
"You could try taking this aside and looking at it."
Wa Shangfei was confused and took the cotton cloth aside.
After walking for a while, I found that nothing seemed to have changed.
Just when he was about to laugh at Zhuang Nan for the useless things he made, his eyes suddenly froze.
The cotton cloth in his hand unexpectedly changed color at some point, and the color became very similar to the surrounding environment.
Wa Shangfei was not a stupid person. After noticing the problem, he took the cotton cloth and moved again.
Sure enough, the cotton cloth coated with special plant juice can change its color according to the surrounding environment.
This is simply a natural disguise!
Seeing such cotton cloth, Wa Shangfei was greatly shocked. How could a veteran like him not realize the power of this thing.
If this thing is used in the dark night, it is much better than some night clothes!
After knowing how powerful this thing was, Wa Shangfei looked at the bucket of juice he had made earlier, wondering what its purpose was.
Zhuang Nan explained:
“Use a masonry board dipped in these sap and you can suck it directly onto the wall.
We can put on cotton cloth and use mud and water to build the city walls.
After the juice is spread out, it will dissipate in less than one stick of incense without leaving any traces. "
"This...how is this possible!"
Wa Shangfei was completely shocked by Zhuang Nan's statement.
If this is true, then the man in front of him should be the best thief in the world. All thieves and the like are scum in front of him.
Ye Ming patted Wa Shangfei's shoulder and took a sip of wine:
"Let's go, it's getting dark, get ready for action."
Wa Shangfei nodded numbly.
He found that since he met Mr. Yang, he always came into contact with people and things that were beyond his knowledge.
As the sky grew dark, the three of them put on cotton cloths and held mud boards in their hands, waiting silently in a small alley opposite the palace wall.
After the sky completely darkened, Ye Ming chose a weak defensive spot and led the two of them to climb the city wall.
Wa Shangfei was a little worried about whether the plant juice would work at first.
But after I actually started climbing, I discovered that the suction power of these sap was so terrifying that I had to rub the wall to move it up, otherwise I wouldn't be able to move the mud slab that was sucked onto the wall.
Seeing this, Wa Shangfei was so determined that he couldn't help but murmur.
"I'm really going to eat shit now..."
After climbing for a while, Wa Shangfei discovered that it seemed that he no longer had to eat shit.
Although Zhuang Nan's method is very effective, there is a hard requirement.
That is, the climber himself is strong enough.
Ye Ming and Wa Shangfei are naturally strong enough, but Zhuang Nan is not.
Zhuang Nan is definitely not weak, but the walls of the palace are not very high, and even a strong man would have difficulty climbing up.
Not to mention people like Zhuang Nan who don't know martial arts and have never practiced qigong.
Halfway through the climb, Zhuang Nan couldn't climb anymore.
Seeing this, Wa Shangfei understood why this guy always broke his leg.
After a moment of hesitation, he chose to grab Zhuang Nan, carry him on his back, and go up.
It has to be said that Wa Shangfei's internal strength training over the years has not been in vain. Even if he is carrying a person on his back, he can still climb the wall smoothly.
Along the way to the bottom of the city, the three of them stopped temporarily.
Because there are soldiers patrolling above, it will take a while.
Fortunately, this place is a high-lying place, so the patrolling soldiers subconsciously regarded this place as a safe area and did not patrol it too seriously.
After making a circle, he went elsewhere.
Ye Ming was not in a hurry, and waited for a while before turning over.
Wa Shangfei also carried Zhuang Nan up to the city wall.
At this point, the effect of the discolored cotton on their bodies is revealed.
Under the cover of darkness, basically as long as you don't come face to face with someone, you won't be discovered.
After arriving here smoothly, Ye Ming led the way, and the three of them entered the palace without any danger.
