But generally speaking, few people would pass by this place. How come it was such a coincidence that night
"Yes, it's this place. When I climbed over the wall, I seemed to have bumped into something and received a lot of resistance. I didn't pay attention to my feet when I landed, so I made some noises, but I didn't expect that At that time, a little eunuch happened to be sneaking by and attracted the Jin Yiwei."
"No, it's still wrong. This place is a high wall. In the palace, there are no institutions around such a remote high wall. What's more, this place is so remote. No matter how perfect Shen Zhongbai's mind is, It’s really impossible to set up any mechanism in this place.”
Shen Qianshan turned his head and thought for a long time before he remembered what exactly made him feel something was wrong just now. It was what Gu Huaian said. When Gu Huaian was climbing over a high wall, he bumped into something. If If there is no mistake, what he bumped into was definitely not an object, but a person.
"No, but I was indeed hit that day. If I hadn't been hit, I wouldn't have fallen from that place so easily and made a sound to alert others."
Gu Huaian didn't understand what Shen Qianshan meant, but he still subconsciously explained. After all, it was because of him that the loophole had appeared. Otherwise, their affairs should have gone smoothly.
"No, that's not what I meant. What I meant is that it's possible that what you bumped into wasn't really an institution, but the person who happened to be trying to climb out of that wall at that time."
Shen Qianshan searched for a while on the map, and his slender fingertips landed on a small courtyard not too far away from that place. "I think Lou Mingyue should be imprisoned in this place."
Gu Qiang and others present obviously did not react. How could Shen Qianshan describe the place where Lou Mingyue was imprisoned in such detail just now? However, among the people present, no one else could except Shen Qianshan. Now that they understand the structure of the palace better, although they are hesitant, they are still ready to believe Shen Qianshan's words. After all, this is their most important clue so far.
"If I remember correctly, this place does have a small courtyard." Gu Qiang tilted her head. She still remembered this very clearly, "But how on earth could you be sure that the person who bumped into your brother that day was Where is Lou Mingyue?" After all, it was so dark at the time, and my brother didn't even know that the person who hit him was a person, and thought that some mechanism had been triggered. How could Shen Qianshan be so sure
"If I remember correctly, this place should be the place where my father imprisoned King Cheng." Shen Qianshan's eyes were a little straightened. He was still young at that time, but he clearly remembered that the person who looked like The kings of gods and gods were imprisoned here.
Just when everyone was surprised, someone suddenly stood at the door. Gusu Liang was always vigilant, and the person who came to him was really a stranger to him. He immediately became on guard and raised his hands in the air. Xu shook his head and signaled everyone not to continue the discussion.
He walked up with a smile on his face.
"Sir, I'm really sorry. Our store is closed today and we don't accept outside customers."
In order to prevent anyone from disturbing them today, Gusu Liang put up a sign saying "Closed today" outside early. However, he did not expect that a guest would come, and the person who came did not look like an ordinary character. , already looked very irritable. Although he looked like a kind-hearted middle-aged man, the aura between his eyebrows still made Gusu Liang unable to ignore him.
"I'm not here to eat, I'm here to meet people."
Gu Qiang was still carefully peeking at the map of the palace, but she didn't expect that a familiar voice suddenly came to her ears. She didn't expect it, but she still raised her head and called out hesitantly, "Your Majesty. .”
Gu Qiang's level of disguise is now considered to be superb, so even if an ordinary person/skin/mask is very lifelike in the eyes of others, there will always be flaws in his own eyes.
What's more, Lou Ziqi's temperament is indeed different from that of ordinary people. Gu Qiang doesn't know many people of similar age, so he can easily guess the identity of the person opposite him.
"it's me."
Shen Qianshan obviously did not expect that Lou Ziqi would find this place so soon. He thought that after he entered Kyoto, he would arrange some other things. After all, there should be no relevant news about Lou Mingyue yet. After it was completely spread out, even Lou Ziqi probably didn't have much information in his hands now.
"Just now, were you also discussing about the children's affairs?" Lou Ziqi entered the capital secretly this time, so before preparing the rest of the things, he had not yet prepared his identity. However, he entered the capital again. Afterwards, when he saw the empty post house, he already knew in his heart that his son might have fallen into Shen Zhongbai's hands before he knew it.
Gusu Liang saw that the person who came was an acquaintance, so he turned around and closed the door. Shen Qianshan, not wanting to hide anything, tore off the mask on his face.
"I'm sorry, Your Highness, although I still have an agreement with you, but the matter is very important, so I still returned to Kyoto. I had no intention of hiding this matter, so please don't blame me, Your Highness."
Shen Qianshan was supposed to be in Leping now, so his sudden appearance here was already a bit unreasonable. After all, an explanation should be given.
"It doesn't matter, but I still want to know your current progress. After all, this incident is all because of Quanzi, and I don't want everyone to put themselves in danger for this matter."
Lou Ziqi has thought a lot since he knew that his son was imprisoned by Shen Zhongbai. To be honest, his previous actions were indeed a bit too foolish and loyal, so much so that now, Shen Zhongbai would risk his son's life. Threaten yourself.
He had obviously seen clearly before this what kind of person the person sitting in the high position was, but he still had a glimmer of hope in him, so he had never rebelled against Shen Zhongbai. In his mind, even though he held a heavy army in his hands, he never thought of threatening him with the troops in his hands.
"Has His Highness made up his mind to stand on the same front with us this time?" Gu Qiang was still worried about this matter. After all, if something really went wrong, they would be on the same side. The odds of winning are at least better.
Lou Ziqi nodded slightly, "Since I have been used to this extent, how can I continue to do my duty for someone who has never treated me as a human being? But even if you have figured it out now, Where is my son being imprisoned? We really can’t act rashly. Shen Zhongbai is a sinister and cunning person. He may be able to think of many more things than we think. If we don’t prepare in advance, it may be really difficult to deal with it. .”
Lou Ziqi has not heard any news about his son for the time being, and all the news is from them, so I am also worried about his safety, but after all, this matter cannot be rushed. If the person sitting in a high position faces off, it should be considered in the long term.
Gusu Liang didn't understand. Is the map they worked so hard to get so useless? "But we all already know that your son is being imprisoned in this place, and the skills of the several of us are not bad. If some of us are responsible for diverting the Jin Yiwei, and the other is responsible for rescuing him, we still have a chance of winning. .”
Gusu Liang did not dare to speak too harshly. When he entered the palace before, he and Zhuiyun went there alone. Moreover, there were not so many royal guards in the palace at that time. When they inspected, they did not look like With such seriousness now, otherwise a sneaky little eunuch would not have been interrogated by them for such a long time.
Shen Qianshan stood aside thoughtfully, and waited for a long time before speaking, "If this is the case, then we might as well just listen to the prince. Anyway, this matter really cannot be rushed."
After Shen Qianshan just listened to what Lou Ziqi said, he thought about it for a while. It is true that for them now, firstly, they don't have enough manpower. Secondly, the situation in the palace is not completely complete. I figured it out, it would indeed be a bit risky if I went in hastily.
"Do we really believe him like this? But he holds military power after all, and the variables are too great. If he betrays us by then, we will really have no choice."
After all, Gusu Liang still didn't understand Lou Ziqi and couldn't put everything aside and trust him completely, so at this juncture, he still felt a little scared. After Lou Ziqi left, he started asking Shen Qianshan After all, Shen Qianshan had met Lou Ziqi before, and the two of them might know each other better, which would be better than being an outsider who knew nothing.
Shen Qianshan can probably understand this situation, but if there is no trust between them, there is actually no way to continue. He must keep Gusu Liang and Lou Ziqi on mutual terms. Only through a relationship of trust can this matter continue.
"Don't worry, I had some exchanges with him in the early years. I'm quite accurate in judging people. If you are on our side, you will never betray him."
