While everyone was watching the fireworks, spies lurking in the crowd began to infiltrate the crowd.
In the distance, Qiulin and his people were slowly surrounding them, and all the movement was drowned in the laughter and laughter.
The last fireworks flew into the sky and bloomed, and people were excited and rejoicing.
When the sound reached its highest point, the spy hiding in the crowd finally moved.
Almost at the same time, Qiulin's people swarmed up and detained them on the ground.
The incident happened suddenly and the crowd panicked.
Lu Ce appeared here dressed in black, with a tall feather crown on his head, and several men also dressed in black.
Wen Qingzhu took a closer look and felt that Lu Ce's clothing was somewhat familiar.
The originally panicked crowd immediately knelt down when they saw them, and no one moved.
The person who was pinned to the ground by Qiu Lin was particularly conspicuous.
Without the obstruction of the crowd, Qiu Lin directed his servants to take these spies out and send them to prison.
The situation was quickly brought under control, and it went quiet without even any chaos.
Although Lu Ce wore a mask and clothes that were unfamiliar to Wen Qingzhu, Wen Qingzhu could still recognize him at a glance.
Seeing that the situation was under control, Qiu Lin stepped forward, knelt down on one knee, and thanked Lu Ce.
Lu Ce gave a few instructions and left with the people.
"they are… "
He Lai stood beside her and replied: "From Wu Zhu Palace, Mr. Lu is the most trusted disciple of Master Wu Zhu at present."
"He is a disciple of Wu Zhu?" Wen Qingzhu had some guesses, but he always felt that Wu Zhu of the Huns had nothing to do with Lu Ce.
He Lai looked at her doubtfully: "Don't you know Mr. Lu's identity?"
"Let's go and see what's going on over there in Qiulin." Wen Qingzhu didn't answer his words and got up and walked over there.
The crowd that was not affected quickly dispersed, and Wen Qingzhu arrived in front of Qiu Lin unimpeded.
There are also fireworks bottom shells, messy footprints and various remaining food on both sides of the river bank.
"Using this as the base point, search carefully within a radius of one mile for me and send over everything you can find!"
After arranging things, Qiu Lin turned around, raised his right hand and put it on his left shoulder to salute: "Thank you for your help, sir. If it weren't for the people from Wuzhu Palace, I wouldn't have been able to catch them so smoothly."
Wen Qingzhu waved his hand: "You don't need to thank me. This matter was originally assigned to me by the second prince. I'll go to the palace first."
"Are you going to see the second prince?" Qiu Lin immediately understood what she wanted to do.
Wen Qingzhu nodded: "Well, the matters outside the palace have been solved now, but the matters inside the palace still need to be handled by me personally."
Qiu Lin thought quickly and couldn't help but ask: "Are you going to do something to the little madam?"
Wen Qingzhu looked at him strangely: "What is your relationship with her?"
"No." Qiu Lin quickly shook his head and watched Wen Qingzhu go to the palace.
Soon they arrived at the entrance of the second prince's palace and were stopped.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?" the guard asked Wen Qingzhu bluntly.
He Lai took a step forward and protected Wen Qingzhu: "This is Master Xiaoshui. He is here to see His Highness the Second Prince. Please inform him."
The guard knew He Lai, but he had never seen Wen Qingzhu, so he was a little unsure.
At this time, a tall woman inside saw them, ran over quickly, and stopped directly in front of He Lai: "He Lai! Why are you here? Are you here to find the second prince?"
Wen Qingzhu glanced at the two of them.
The woman looked very young, less than twenty years old. She was wearing a court dress, had wheat-colored skin, and clear eyebrows. She was very sassy.
He Lai's eyes were a little dodgey, as if he was avoiding her.
Wen Qingzhu could understand who this woman was after a moment's thought, and explained with a smile: "This steward, He Lai, is now my subordinate, and does not belong to Master Shi Zhu anymore."
The woman then looked over, looked at her for a long time, bowed and said, "It turns out to be Mr. Xiaoshui. I'm rude. Are you here to see the second prince? What a coincidence, he just left."
"Where are you going?" Wen Qingzhu felt the woman's hostility, but didn't care much.
The steward looked apologetic: "Sorry, I don't know about this. How about Mr. Xiaoshui come back tomorrow?"
Wen Qingzhu had an intuition that this woman was not telling the truth. He stared at her for a long time before saying, "Sister Steward, now I have something very important to report to the Second Prince. This matter involves the Fourth Prince and the Sixth Prince. Are you sure you don't know about the Second Prince?" Where has the prince gone?"
The last threat indeed made her hesitate for a moment. It took her a long time to take a deep breath, then walked out and took two steps to the right.
He stopped and said to Wen Qingzhu: "Since Lord Xiaoshui has something important to do, come with me."
Wen Qingzhu smiled and nodded, and followed her to a brightly lit martial arts training ground.
As soon as he came over, Wen Qingzhu saw the second prince giving instructions to the kneeling slaves.
All the slaves had their heads covered, but looking at their figures, Wen Qingzhu could tell at a glance that these slaves were not Huns.
Wen Qingzhu's appearance quickly attracted the attention of the second prince.
Seeing the look on the second prince's face, the steward immediately led Wen Qingzhu and the others over.
Arriving in front of the second prince, Wen Qingzhu met an acquaintance.
She looked at Arlo, who was standing aside with his back slightly hunched over, and asked with a smile, "Long time no see."
Arlo nodded and said hello: "Master Xiaoshui, you are too polite."
Wen Qingzhu exchanged a few brief greetings and asked about Amos' situation, and Arlo answered them one by one.
The second prince looked on coldly, wondering in his heart, was Amos one of his eldest brothers
Why are Xiao Shui and Arlo so familiar
Wen Qingzhu naturally felt the second prince's attention, but she said nothing. She turned to look at the dozens of slaves in front of her, and asked as if unintentionally: "These slaves look quite young, and they don't look like Huns." Man, where did Lord Amos get these slaves?”
Arlo quickly explained: "This is not the case a few days ago. The Qi army penetrated deeply into our Huns and went directly to the White Wolf tribe and fought a battle. These people were the logistics supply personnel intercepted by the Asan tribe. They were not strong in combat effectiveness and used medicine. Basically there is no threat, the sixth prince asked Lord Amos to send them to the second prince."
"Sixth Prince..." Wen Qingzhu's tone became solemn, making Arlo feel a little nervous.
He originally wanted to ask, but since the second prince was here, Arlo chose to shut up.
At this time, the second prince pointed at the people in front and said, "Sixth brother sent these people here, which just met my needs. Do you think this is a coincidence?"
The second prince looked at Wen Qingzhu's profile, trying to see something on her face.
Unfortunately, he couldn't see anything.
Wen Qingzhu curled his lips and turned around to praise Arlo: "I originally only knew that Master Amos would do some business, but I didn't expect that not only did he have a good friendship with the second prince, but he also had a good friendship with the sixth prince. It seems that I didn’t find out clearly.”
Arlo felt that there was something in her words, but he didn't understand it, and he didn't dare to ask directly. He could only agree and nodded repeatedly.
He had finished handing over all the things that should be handed over. Seeing that Wen Qingzhu was not in a good mood, Arluo immediately resigned: "Second Prince, Lord Xiaoshui, I have finished all the things here. If there is nothing else, I will go back first. Returned to Lord Amos."
"Go." The second prince raised his chin, and Arlo turned around and left impatiently.
The second prince drove away He Lai and the maid in charge.
Then he asked Wen Qingzhu alone: "Have you finished handling all the matters here?"
Wen Qingzhu turned sideways and met his gaze: "The second prince overestimated me, but things have been pretty much done. We are currently encountering a small problem, so I came here to ask for instructions from the second prince."
"Didn't you already take advantage of Qiu Lin and Zhi Zhu? They are the two most powerful people in Tianying City at present, so there are still problems."
Wen Qingzhu pursed his lips and smiled: "This problem mainly depends on what the second prince wants to do? After all, the matter involves your little wife."
As soon as these words came out, the second prince's expression darkened, and he stared at Wen Qingzhu with an evil look: "What's wrong with Fei Yuan?"
"The second prince knows her name?" Wen Qingzhu was a little surprised.
The second prince raised his eyelids and snorted lightly.
The smile on Wen Qingzhu's face suddenly spread: "Since the second prince knows, then I will tell you that I have someone here to testify and I can confirm that the sixth prince and the young lady are working together inside and outside, and want to transport Ku Xin out, just in case The scorpion venom breaks out, and without enough dry heart, Tianying City may be completely destroyed."
"Fei Yuan and the sixth prince will not have any contact!" The second prince was sure that Xia Fei Yuan was now desperate and would never dare to betray him.
Wen Qingzhu sighed and shook his head: "Are you really so sure?"
Seeing the faint smile on her face, the second prince had a bad feeling in his heart.
Wen Qingzhu turned around, pointed outside and said, "If the second prince doesn't mind, you can come with me to have a look. If nothing else, the young lady is not only not in her yard at this time, but should be in the prince's inner palace."
The second prince stood still.
Xia Feiyuan was originally a member of the fourth prince, but he was never taken seriously after coming to the Xiongnu.
He tried to seduce and seduce the sixth prince, but failed to climb into bed and was thrown directly in front of him.
Originally, he had no interest in women, but a rare Qi Ren woman with a delicate body suddenly became interested and kept her for one night.
It turned out that her skills were good, so the second prince kept her for one more night.
Early the next morning, he ordered his guards to throw Xia Feiyuan into the military camp.
In order to save her life, Xia Feiyuan had to reveal her identity and exchanged the fourth prince's next actions for his temporary trust.
Gradually, he discovered that Xia Feiyuan was very different from the Huns women, and took the initiative to make suggestions to help him gradually disintegrate the influence of the fourth prince and the sixth prince in Tianying City.
Finally, with her help, the fourth and sixth princes were driven away in one fell swoop.
He then gave Xia Feiyuan a status and asked her to make suggestions for him.
It turned out that the second prince was still willing to touch Xia Feiyuan, but this woman secretly hooked up with Shi Zhu, so he locked Xia Feiyuan in the harem.
She would almost never be allowed to act alone unless necessary.
Now someone told him that Xia Feiyuan was colluding with the Sixth Prince, and he would rather believe that it was with the Fourth Prince.
Seeing that the second prince was hesitating, Wen Qingzhu took out a piece of withered heart that he had left by the river before and handed it to the second prince: "Your Highness, please see, this quality of withered heart should be stored in the palace's warehouse, right?"
