If Lu Li knew He Shouzhong's last thoughts, Lu Li would definitely discuss the emotional issues between her and her siblings with Mu Ningqiu in detail.
Following He Shouzhong, the group arrived in Linzhou smoothly without any incident, and even got a residence equipped with many servants to rest for a while.
Of course, calling it a temporary break was actually a method used by He Shouzhong to facilitate surveillance.
However, everyone still settled in with peace of mind.
As for what happens next…
"What are you going to do next? If He Shouzhong discovers your lies, we're afraid we will get into unnecessary trouble."
Ge Xinyue was still a little worried about Lu Li's 'plan'. "Now that we have arrived in Linzhou safely, there is no need to continue to compromise with them."
"If I really just wanted to borrow their power to get through the journey to Linzhou safely at the beginning, now I have become a little interested in this religious sect."
Lu Li said: "While the two countries are at war, this religious sect suddenly rises and recruits forces everywhere to find allies. Don't you think this move seems to be..."
"Rebellion, rebellion."
Mu Ningqiu frowned.
After all, she was still the eldest princess of the royal family. She had already noticed the details of the divine religion before arriving in Linzhou.
It's just that she was still playing the role of a accompanying maid at that time, so naturally she couldn't discuss these matters with Lu Li.
Now that she heard Lu Li's analysis, Mu Ningqiu was even more certain that the people behind this divine sect, or those organizations, must have a huge conspiracy to cause the whole country to be in turmoil in the Heaven-Swallowing Holy Kingdom.
"Although it is not completely certain that this religious cult wants to rebel, it is at least certain that these people are definitely planning something."
"Now that we have seen it, we can't just ignore it, right, Your Highness Princess?"
Lu Li turned his gaze to Mu Ningqiu's face.
Mu Ningqiu snorted.
Then Lu Li looked at Mu Hongxiu, who was concentrating with her eyes closed, "Then... what is your opinion, Prince Yan?"
"Do what you want." Mu Hongxiu said calmly without opening her eyes, "You are the foreign affairs manager of Prince Yan's Mansion. You make the decision on these matters..."
"and."
She paused and then said: "It's a long way back to Yanzhou, so it would be good to do some interesting things to relieve our fatigue."
As soon as Mu Hongxiu said these words, Mu Ningqiu smiled, and then the corners of Ge Xinyue's lips also raised slightly.
This was the Mu Hongxiu they remembered. Even if the sky fell, it was just fun to relieve fatigue.
"In that case, let's just wait and see what happens next."
Lu Li also smiled in the end, not because of Mu Hongxiu's change of attitude, but because... he could finally make a big deal.
That He Shouzhong and the divine cult behind him are obviously big fish.
If this big fish can be 'caught', the box of jade money owed to Prince Yan's Mansion will naturally be found.
…
"A caravan from another family? Are they also here for the secret treasure?"
In the He family, a middle-aged man whose appearance was somewhat similar to He Shouzhong frowned and looked at He Shouzhong: "Are you sure?"
"It doesn't look like a fake."
He Shouzhong said: "The young man at the head is already a warrior in the Immortal Realm at a young age. Although I can't detect the aura of any warrior among the few maids accompanying him, one of them can control a ferocious beast comparable to a master. It all shows that they have extraordinary origins.”
"There are only a handful of families with such a background in the entire Holy Kingdom. How do you think they will join the Divine Religion?"
The middle-aged man, the head of the He family and the elder brother of He Shouzhong, He Shouwei said coldly: "The plan of the Divine Religion is very important. Although we need to win over a group of forces now, we must be careful about the Holy Kingdom's attempts to attack the Divine Religion. Infiltration spies.”
"Don't worry, I have sent people to investigate this matter. Although the young man is very vigilant and has not revealed his family's origins until now, but as you said, there are no families with such backgrounds in the entire Holy Kingdom. There are only a handful of them, and I believe the results will be found out soon.”
He Shouzhong smiled lightly and said: "What's more, they are lying about their identities, which is actually a good thing for the divine religion."
"Um?"
He Shouwei looked at his younger brother, "What good will it do to the religion if they fake their identities?"
"Think about it, at this juncture, who is the person who has such strength and still hides his face?" He Shouzhong said with a smile.
He Shouwei thought for a moment, and then said in surprise: "You mean... they might be from the Jitian Demon Kingdom?"
"That's right. Besides the spies planted by the Jitian Demon Kingdom in the Holy Kingdom, who else would do this?"
"Even if they are really spies from the Jitian Demon Kingdom, they may not be willing to cooperate with the Divine Religion."
He Shouwei frowned and said: "The Jitian Demon Kingdom wants to annex the Holy Kingdom and cooperates with the Divine Religion... It will not be of any benefit to them."
"Brother, your thinking is still shallow." He Shouzhong said proudly: "Think about it, what does the cult really want?"
He Shouwei's face trembled slightly and he remained silent.
He Shouzhong said: "As long as it is beneficial to the big goal of the Divine Religion, let alone the Jitian Demon Kingdom... Even if we join forces with the Righteous Sect or even the Six Holy Lands, the Divine Religion will not hesitate."
"Think about it, if we can really win over people from the Jitian Demon Kingdom to join the Divine Religion, the He family's status within the Divine Religion will be raised to a higher level!"
Hearing He Shouzhong's somewhat excited words, He Shouwei was also quite moved, but he was not as optimistic as He Shouzhong. He said in a deep voice: "The He family joining the divine religion is only a last resort choice. You have to know that God Teach those people…”
He seemed a little hesitant: "Especially those great envoys and the two popes. What they want to do is too dangerous. It is simply the idea of a madman. The He family should not fall too deep."
After saying that, He Shouwei also warned: "Although they have promoted you to be a divine envoy, it is best not to get too close to the people of the divine religion."
He Shouzhong stood up and said with a smile: "Of course I know this. Joining the cult is only for the benefit of the He family. Everything must be done with the family first."
"As long as you understand." He Shouwei nodded and reached out to pick up the tea cup: "Keep an eye on those people. If you are sure there is no problem, then contact the divine religion."
"good."
He Shouzhong turned and left.
The moment he turned around, his eyes became a little gloomy, his steps suddenly stopped, and he whispered: "If the gods really come one day, how will the He family deal with themselves?"
He Shouwei stopped, raised his head and looked at He Shouzhong, and then said casually: "The so-called gods are just more powerful warriors. Seeing gods are called heavenly beings, are they really heavenly beings?"
"yes… "
He Shouzhong turned his back to He Shouwei and showed an extremely weird smile, "The so-called gods are just powerful warriors..."
After that, He Shouzhong left directly.
After leaving the He family, he flew into the air and flew all the way to the dense forest bordering the city. Then he took out a dark golden jade slip from his arms, crushed it in his palm, and waited quietly for a moment.
"Hermit He, have you discovered anything?"
After a moment, a cold voice sounded from behind He Shouzhong.
He Shouzhong turned around and saw the tall man wearing a white burqa. He crossed his hands on his chest and made a strange etiquette. His face was full of respect: "I have seen the great envoy."
Then he said: "My subordinates have recruited a child who is suspected to be from a powerful family. Of course, whether it is true or not has yet to be verified, but even if he is not from a powerful family, he may be a spy from the Jitian Demon Kingdom."
The tall man wore a bright silver metal mask on his face. The expression on the mask was an extremely exaggerated scowl, making people shudder just by looking at each other.
Upon hearing He Shouzhong's report, the great envoy nodded and said, "You have done a good job. I will truthfully report this credit to the Pope."
"Thank you, great envoy."
When the Pope was mentioned, He Shouzhong's expression became more respectful and humble. He lowered his head and did not dare to meet the eyes of the great envoy, appearing a little hesitant.
"Is there anything else you haven't reported?"
The great envoy saw his hesitation and said indifferently: "Failure to report what you know is a serious sin in the religion."
He Shouzhong was startled, trembling all over, and said quickly: "Subordinate... I don't dare to hide it..."
