Tang Fengling stood on the roof, staring at the clearly visible palace not far away.
Here is the roof of an abandoned palace. Because no one has lived there for a long time, few people come here.
This also ensures her safety in another aspect.
Tang Fengling sighed and continued to stare at the palace.
There is the palace of the eldest princess of the barbarian country.
Her mission is to closely monitor every move in the eldest princess's palace, especially the movements of the eldest princess and her personal maids.
This was decided after discussions yesterday.
Tang Fengling sighed helplessly.
She has been standing here closely monitoring since yesterday afternoon, but until now, everything in the palace is still normal and she has not noticed any unusual movement.
During this period, although some people paid attention to this place, under the influence of Kongying's internal power, it was impossible for those people to discover her.
It's just that after monitoring for so long, it's hard to avoid getting a little bored.
Tang Fengling looked around and smiled helplessly.
"Did you find anything?"
Suddenly, a voice sounded in her ears.
Tang Fengling could tell that the other party had used the skill of transmitting sounds into secrets, so she smiled and said, "No, shouldn't you accompany the master of the palace and the others to do the autopsy? Why did you ever think of coming to me?"
"Forget it, what did Xie Li say about the barbarian rules that women who are strangers to the deceased are not allowed to see the body of the deceased, so I was kicked out..."
As the sound of complaints reached his ears, a figure silently fell behind Tang Fengling.
Tang Fengling turned around, "Oh? You are so bold, how dare you drive our princess out?"
Behind him, Xuan Xi smiled slightly, "Stop teasing me. What use can I, a princess of the Xuan Dynasty, do in the realm of the Barbarian Kingdom?"
Tang Fengling also smiled slightly.
"That's true. However, this is fine."
Xuan Xi glanced at her curiously.
"At least now I have you with me to monitor. I don't have to be as lonely and bored as before." Tang Fengling said.
Xuan Xi looked at the ordinary princess's palace in the distance and couldn't help but smile.
"That's right. In that case, I will show mercy and come to stay with you."
"Then I would like to thank Her Royal Highness the Princess for your support."
Tang Fengling smiled and hugged her fists.
Xuan Xi also smiled, and then the two of them sat on the roof together, staring at the eldest princess's palace not far away.
After a while, there was finally movement there.
I saw a woman dressed as a palace maid, walking out of the palace gate and heading straight to the north.
The north side is the direction of the palace gate of the harem.
"Looking at the direction, she seems to be leaving the palace." Xuan Xi said to herself.
Tang Fengling nodded, "That's right, Your Highness Princess, you are really good news to me. I have been squatting here for nearly a day without any movement. I didn't expect you to show up as soon as you came."
Xuan Xi looked at the palace maid's retreating figure and smiled helplessly.
"If you don't catch up, she will go far away..."
Tang Fengling smiled slightly and grabbed Xuan Xi's hand.
"Don't worry, since I achieved the great success of Qinggong, no one has ever been able to escape my surveillance."
As soon as she finished speaking, the inner force of Kongying in her body suddenly moved, and the two of them disappeared on the roof at the same time.
The maid walked all the way to the palace gate of the harem, left the palace through the palace gate, and walked directly north toward the most prosperous downtown area of the royal city.
An hour later, she arrived in front of an inn.
She stood in front of the inn door and looked around slightly. When she was sure that no one noticed her, she quickly walked into the inn.
Not long after she entered the inn, there was a person on the second floor of the teahouse opposite, leaving in a hurry.
At the same time, Xuan Xi and Tang Fengling also appeared in front of the inn.
Speaking of the palace maid, after entering the inn, she came to a room on the second floor with a familiar route, and then reached out and knocked on the door.
Soon, a response came from inside.
There were also knocks on the door, three short and two long.
Soon, the door opened, and an old man in his sixties appeared in front of him and pulled him closer to the room.
"You're not being followed, are you?"
The old man asked subconsciously.
The palace maid shook her head and said, "Are the things I want to take away ready?"
The old man nodded, "Everything is ready. But..."
The palace maid frowned slightly, "But what?"
"The chief instructor who provides us with medicine wants to meet you." The old man said.
"Headmaster?" The palace maid frowned, confused.
"You just joined us recently, so it's normal not to know the chief instructor." The old man smiled, "You only need to know that the chief instructor was the backing force of the old master when he revolted. The reason why the uprising was possible was because of the chief instructor. It’s a pity that after the old master was defeated and died, we never saw the head teacher again.”
"But they appear again now?" the palace maid asked.
"Yes, we just met that adult." The old man nodded.
The palace maid frowned slightly and pondered for a moment, "Where is that lord now? I must get the medicine back as soon as possible, otherwise it will delay the master's plan."
The old man nodded, "I understand. The adult is in the room, and the medicine is in his hands."
After the old man finished speaking, a voice that seemed familiar to the palace maid suddenly sounded.
"Huajian, long time no see..."
The moment she heard this voice, the palace maid's body suddenly shook! !
Immediately, he turned around suddenly and saw a familiar figure in green robe walking out from behind the screen!
"Alliance Leader!!"
The palace maid looked at the figure walking out from behind the screen and was slightly startled. Then she slowly uttered two words that she had not said for a long time.
The person who walked out from behind the screen was Ye Hong!
The palace maid is none other than the leader of the Huajian sect of the Seven Gangs of Jianghuai who disappeared after the Battle of Heaven Sacrifice, Huajian! !
…
…
Gongsun slowly covered the two princes with white cloth.
Although they had been dead for nearly half a year, their bodies were still well preserved in this icehouse.
"Gongsun, what did you find?"
Seeing that Gongsun had finished examining the body, Chen Yutian immediately asked.
Gongsun winked at him and motioned to go out before talking.
Chen Yutian nodded and immediately walked out of the icehouse with Gongsun. Outside, Jie Li and several guards were waiting anxiously.
Seeing the two people coming out, they immediately greeted them.
"Sir, do you have any new discoveries?" Jieli asked.
Gongsun did not speak, but looked at Chen Yutian, took out a piece of white cloth from his arms, and after opening it, he found that there was only a frozen grass root inside.
When Chen Yutian saw this grass root, his eyes immediately lit up!
Jie Li and the guards were at a loss.
"Sir, what is this?"
Gongsun and Chen Yutian looked at each other and said, "Your Majesty, these are the remains of dead wood and grass."
"The remains of dead wood and grass?" Jieli said to himself, suddenly his expression changed slightly and he looked at Gongsun.
"Could it be that...you suspect that my two princes were poisoned by the phantom poison of flowers and plants before their death?"
"Flowers and plants are poisonous?" Gongsun and Chen Yutian looked at each other, and both saw a hint of doubt in them.
"It's a poison mixed with cherry blossoms and dead wood grass that can cause hallucinations. Flower and grass poison is what we call it here," Jie Li said.
Gongsun and Chen Yutian were surprised and looked at Jieli.
"Your Majesty actually knows about this poison?"
Jieli said: "It was also a fluke. I once read it in a book that Feng'er read that recorded the medicinal properties of medicinal herbs. Because deadwood grass is relatively common in barbaric countries, I remembered it."
"That's it." Gongsun nodded slightly.
"I dare not hide it from Your Majesty. We did suspect that the two princes were poisoned by flowers and plants before their death, but now, it is certain."
Jie Li nodded and looked at the grass roots in Gongsun's handkerchief that had gradually thawed.
"It seems that it is indeed certain that the remains of this dead wood and grass should have been found on the corpses of my two princes."
Gongsun nodded, "It was found from the second prince's mouth. In addition, I also found a small amount of frozen tea leaves in the second prince's mouth. This can also prove that the two princes once drank mixed tea. Tea of dead wood grass.”
"I see, I understand." Jie Li nodded.
Gongsun nodded, rewrapped the white cloth and put it back in his arms.
Jie Li pondered for a moment, then looked at Chen Yutian and said, "Master Chen, do you have any clues about the murderer who poisoned me?"
Chen Yutian bowed his hands slightly and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, don't worry. Regarding the poisoning, I have asked the palace to help with the investigation. I believe there will be new clues soon."
"Yeah." Jie Li nodded without any change in his expression.
Chen Yutian looked at him and suddenly said: "By the way, Your Majesty, I would like to ask the Third Princess about something. I wonder if the Third Princess can be convenient today?"
Jie Li smiled and said, "There's no point asking me about this. You should ask Mr. Gongsun. After all, he is treating Feng'er now. If he says it's okay, then it's okay."
As he spoke, Jieli glanced at Gongsun.
Chen Yutian quickly saluted Jieli! !
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
…
…
"Have you really decided?" Ye Hong looked at the flowers, pondered for a long time, and asked.
"Yes, Alliance Leader! We have thought it through since we fled to this barbaric country. Jianghu, we no longer want to go back."
Huajian said slowly as if he had been thinking for a long time.
"I understand." Ye Hong nodded, he could understand Huajian's choice.
"So you and Xie Ying participated in this plan to swallow barbarians..." he asked.
Huajian nodded, "Yes, this is also a plan for us to withdraw from the world."
Ye Hong nodded, "No wonder his decision and yours are almost the same..."
Huajian's expression changed and he asked, "Has the leader already gone to see him?"
Ye Hong nodded, "Yes, he told me your decision, and I don't object to it. After all, I am now in the Futian Sect, and I am just a disciple responsible for making suggestions. There is no future for following me. But I still want to I want to remind you."
"Alliance leader, please speak."
"Chen Yutian has fought with me many times, and you should also know how scary this person is. Remember, you must not underestimate him, otherwise, your plan will definitely fall short!!"
"Also, don't think about killing him. His martial arts is no less than mine now. You must remember!!"
Ye Hong's expression rarely became serious!
Huajian nodded heavily.
Ye Hong nodded, reached out and took out a cloth bag from his arms, and handed it to Huajian.
"This is the medicine you want. I have told you everything I need to say. Let's say goodbye. You can take care of yourself!"
Huazhuan took the cloth bag and nodded again.
"I remember...the leader!"
Ye Hong nodded lightly and left the inn immediately.
Opposite the inn, Xuan Xi and Tang Fengling looked at Ye Hong walking out of the inn door, and they were both shocked!
"Why is he here?" Tang Fengling looked at Ye Hong's leaving back solemnly and said to herself.
Xuan Xi was also a little strange.
Tang Fengling frowned and pondered for a while, then she saw the maid from before walking out of the door of the inn.
She didn't have time to think too much, so she had no choice but to pull Xuan Xi and follow Huajian away.
However, not long after they left the teahouse, a person also left the teahouse. After walking for a while in the direction Ye Hong took, he turned into a quiet alley.
Ye Hong is waiting for her here.
"How's it going?"
"It's Tang Fengling and Xuan Xi. It seems that your old subordinate has been targeted."
The person who came spoke was none other than Bing Ling, who had fought against Jiulong Mansion in the past. The difference was that this time she was dressed in men's clothing.
It was precisely because of this that she was not recognized by Xuan Xi and Tang Fengling who were also in the teahouse. Of course, part of the reason for this was that the two people's attention was not in the teahouse at all.
Ye Hong sighed, "I have told them everything that needs to be said. The success or failure of the next plan depends on their luck."
After saying that, he asked again, "Where's the hole release machine?"
Bingling said: "According to the ancient and modern maps you provided, the Sixth Patriarch and the others found several places, but after all, it was not very accurate, and without the token, they could not open the seal of the Holy Land at all. So they decided to follow another group of people from Jiulong Mansion. Look, but with Ice King and the others here, it’s hard to say whether we can succeed.”
"Also, I heard that the Saint seems to be on her way too."
"Saint? Even she was alarmed. It seems that this time the Holy Cult is bound to be won!" Ye Hong was shocked.
"Of course. This action in the Holy Land of Wind and Rain is very important. After all, it is the holy land of the two holy clans." Bing Ling said solemnly.
"I understand. Let's leave now." Ye Hong nodded, and then left the alley with Bingling and disappeared into the bustling streets...
…
…
Scale Palace.
This place is the residence of King Lin, the leader of the Lin Clan, one of the eight royal families of the Barbarian Kingdom.
The eight royal clans of the Barbarian Kingdom were the eight major ethnic groups that contributed the most when the Wolf Clan established the Barbarian Kingdom. These eight major ethnic groups made great contributions to the establishment of the Barbarian Kingdom, so they were named royal clans by the Wolf Clan, and the heads of the royal clans could be crowned kings. , the throne is passed down hereditary, and every generation of clan leader can be the king.
The throne of the Scale Clan has been passed down to the eighth generation.
Early that morning, a pair of Central Plains men and women dressed in white stood outside the door of Linwang Palace.
They are all young and dressed in white. The man is handsome and the woman is beautiful. They stand there as if they were born to be the most beautiful. They are eye-catching.
These two people are Xue Tianhan and Ling Miaoyin.
The purpose of their trip was to find out about Concubine Yuan's life experience.
