After thinking about several options, it seems that there is no possibility of escaping from the clutches of the devil.
Furthermore, Murong Yu is angry now, and there is no room for bargaining.
However, Murong Ci extremely didn't want to have any more physical contact with him or any ambiguous behavior.
"My lord hasn't said how he got into Linglong Xuan"
She broke his hand away, but fortunately this question successfully aroused his interest, so he let go.
It took Rong Zhan so much time to find out the details of Linglongxuan, and it took so much effort to successfully gain the trust of the shopkeeper and let them in. There is also that jasper carved with a unique mark. That jasper should be the identity certificate issued by Linglongxuan to regular customers. Where did Rong Zhan get it
Then, how did Murong Yu gain the trust of the shopkeeper
"Your people can find out Linglongxuan's secret activities, but this king can't find out?" Murong Yu sneered coldly.
"Then what else did the lord find?" She asked after deliberation.
"Linglongxuan is very mysterious, and this king is becoming more and more interested in Linglongxuan." There was a little coldness in his eyes.
"Originally, Bengong wanted to leave Linglongxuan, but those boys in green clothes seemed to have noticed something and refused to let me go. Then the boss behind the scenes wanted to see Bengong."
"What kind of person is the boss behind the scenes?"
Murong Ci gave a brief description, "The boss behind the scene is about twenty years old, very mysterious, and even tried to test Bengong by surprise. Fortunately, Bengong is smart enough to get away with it."
Murong Yu sneered, "Even so, the boss behind the scene became suspicious and sent someone outside to kill you."
Her tone was soft, but she was extremely determined, "I think that the boss behind the scene has no intention of killing me."
"How to say"
"If you really want to kill Bengong, you will send masters. The skills of those men in black are just ordinary."
"If this king hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid His Highness's head would have been sent to the boss behind the scenes."
She glared at him angrily, not wanting to waste any more arguing.
At that time, she noticed movement in that private house, and guessed that he should be chasing him out, so she didn't show her skills.
Murong Yu pressed his brows slightly, and pondered: "What is the purpose of Linglongxuan's underground operation of casinos and brothels?"
Murong Ci also couldn't figure it out, Master Li who was killed just now went to Linglongxuan, so whether Linglongxuan secretly sold drugs
Furthermore, Wan Fang and Wang Tao from the Military Weapons Supervisor have also been to Linglong Xuan, could it be that they just went to gamble and have fun
The more I thought about it, the more chaotic it became, as if something was about to come out, but it was only one step away.
"Your Highness walked around Linglongxuan, did you find anything else? Why did you go to Linglongxuan?" he asked coldly.
"The yamen servants of Dali Temple followed Qingyang Lane and captured both the seller and the buyer of the drug ointment." She said simply, "The man who sold the drug ointment would rather kill himself by biting his tongue than reveal a word. It seems that He is a die-hard loyalist. Then Bengong and Zhiyan tracked down the wealthy Li family in the city, but it was still a step too late, and Master Li was killed."
"How to Die"
"The murderer slapped him on the chest when he was intoxicated with drug ointment, and later the palace interrogated the servants of the Li family. He said that Mr. Li had been to Linglongxuan and stayed in Linglongxuan for two hours to appreciate jade.
"It's really unusual to stay in Linglongxuan for two hours to appreciate jade." Murong Yu had a cold expression on his face, "I always feel that Linglongxuan has more secrets than that."
"I think so too." Murong Ci thought so hard that his head was about to burst.
After a long silence, she suddenly remembered where the coachman would take them. She looked out the small window, and it was okay, it was in the direction of the East Palace.
As soon as she turned around, she was shocked to find that she had fallen into a warm and firm chest. At the same time, something soft and soft seemed to brush past her cheeks, and the fiery breath was already permeating the surroundings, luring someone's soul.
The waist tightened, and an iron arm was wrapped around it.
Her whole body was frozen, as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, and at the same time, she was heated by the scorching chest, and her body temperature soared sharply.
Struggling, pushing, resisting, trying to escape from this familiar, burning embrace.
Murong Yu's big palm was attached to the side of her face, and his thumb slowly rubbed her soft cheeks, the snow-colored skin immediately turned ambiguous pink, making it even more alluring.
Every move is strong and domineering, and she has never been given room to oppose and protest.
His deep eyes burst out with a tinge of coldness, "Next time, don't be reckless, otherwise, this king will definitely not let you down."
I want you to take care of me
Murong Ci was full of resentment, but the words that came out of his mouth were: "I remember it, you can let it go."
The carriage stopped slowly, and he kissed it without hesitation, but she quickly avoided it, fled out of the carriage in a panic, and never looked back.
He watched her gradually melt into the misty night, with her thin lips slightly drawn, a trace of imperceptible tenderness slowly overflowing.
The next morning, Murong Ci and Qin Ruo rushed to Dali Temple.
Yesterday, Shen Zhiyan went to Zhuang's house and Gan's house, asked a few servants, and got the result: Has Zhuang Qin been to Linglong Xuan
However, neither the family nor the servants knew about it; Gan Taizu's loyal servant said that he once heard the master mention Linglong Xuan, but he was not sure whether the master had been there.
She narrowed her eyebrows slightly, and said: "Zhuang Qin and Gan Taizu are not sure whether they have been to Linglong Xuan, maybe they have been there, but they are very secretive, and they will not let their family members and servants know."
"What is certain right now is that Master Li has been to Linglongxuan, does Linglongxuan secretly sell drug ointment?" He stroked his chin and pondered.
"Your Highness" Qin Ruo hesitated to speak, as if she wanted to remind His Highness to tell her about going to Linglong Xuan last night.
Last night, Murong Ci and Rong Zhan entered Linglong Pavilion, but came out from the alley. Later, he left, went to the street to find Qin Ruo, and told Qin Ruo that the owner had gone back. So Qin Ruo drove the carriage back to the East Palace.
Murong Ci told what happened last night, Shen Zhiyan was quite surprised, and said angrily: "Your Highness, how can you be reckless? What if something happens?"
She smiled, "Isn't Ben Gong doing well?"
He said earnestly: "Linglongxuan is so mysterious, its power must not be underestimated. Your Highness, don't act recklessly next time."
"After checking here, I seem to have reached a dead end again. The only thing I can check is Linglongxuan."
"By the way, what officials did His Highness see in Linglong Xuan last night? Are Wan Fang and Wang Tao from the Military Weapons Supervisor also there?"
"I didn't see these two people. It seems that I underestimated Wan Fang and Wang Tao. Their city and mind should not be underestimated." She stared coldly.
Shen Zhiyan had the idea of going to Linglongxuan to investigate in person, but he was worried that His Highness would follow, so he didn't say anything.
Qin Ruo somewhat guessed his thoughts, and said: "Master Shen also wants to visit Linglong Xuan"
He winked at her, and then said, "Let's talk about it."
She understood what he meant, but smiled silently.
Murong Ci pretended not to see it, but in fact she didn't want him to go to Linglong Xuan either, after all his skill was really unflattering and it was a dangerous place.
The three chatted for a while, and said goodbye.
When she and Qin Ruo came to Shu Yuxuan, Rong Zhan had been waiting in the private room for a long time.
"Yu Wang didn't recognize me last night." He smiled leisurely and pushed the poured tea over.
"Probably not." Murong Ci lowered his eyebrows and drank his tea, because remembering the approach and hug of the man in the carriage last night, his body trembled suddenly, as if he had been hit by an electric current.
"Master Rong, how did you get that jasper?" Qin Ruo saw that His Highness was a little embarrassed, although she was suspicious, she changed the subject in a timely manner.
"The reason why I can make a living under the owner's seat is because I have some skills that others don't have." Rong Zhan smiled freely.
"Don't be tricky, tell me quickly." She said coquettishly.
"Our No. 1 estate in the world is full of talented people. There is a celebrity and the concubine of the Yang family who are good friends in the wine and meat market. The concubine of the Yang family drank a few more glasses. Although it is just a few words about Linglong Xuan, it is enough for me to deliberate and follow the vine. "He winked at Qin Ruo secretly.
"After that, you successfully found out the details of Linglongxuan, stole that jasper from the Yang family, and even lied about being a member of the Yang family in Weizhou." Murong Ci laughed.
"You can't hide anything from the owner of the villa." Rong Zhan said seriously, "Master, I think Linglongxuan's secret is not only that."
"I think so too." She raised her eyebrows slightly, "There is a chance to go again."
Nothing to do today, I spent time in the cool and pleasant Shu Yuxuan until the sun was almost westward and the heat subsided before returning to the East Palace.
The carriage rattled and passed through the busy city, but the carriage suddenly stopped.
Qin Ruo frowned, opened the plain curtain and asked the driver: "What's going on?"
But he saw a man in black with an expressionless face and an ordinary appearance standing in front of the carriage. She said to His Highness, "There is a man in front."
Murong Ci felt something strange and said, "Go and ask."
The man in black walked over to the carriage and said, "My lord, my master has an invitation."
Qin Ruo raised her voice and asked: "Who is your master and why did you invite my master to meet?"
"You will know when the young master is gone."
"Where is your master?"
"It's just in front of Deyue Tower."
Anyway, it's okay to go back, Murong Ci immediately got out of the carriage and went to Deyue Tower with the man in black.
If she knew that Murong Yu was waiting for her in the private room on the third floor, she wouldn't come even if she beat up the man in black in the street.
The moment she pushed the door open, she saw Murong Yu sitting sideways to her, sipping tea in a leisurely manner, she even had the idea of turning around and running away, but the way she ran away must be in a mess, she is dignified as the crown prince, how can you do something like that
So she walked into the private room gracefully, as if stepping on the guillotine, what awaited her was a brutal and inhumane execution.
The man in black refused to let Qin Ruo in, and closed the door tightly.
"This king thought that His Highness would run away in despair."
Murong Yu concentrated on pouring the tea, the freshly brewed tea was steaming hot, misty, blurring the stern facial features that were cut by a knife.
Murong Ci squeezed out a cheerful smirk, "How can it be? The prince invited me, there must be something important."
