"How? Did you find anything?"

"Lord Wang, nothing!"

"What?!Nothing?!"

"Yes! There's really nothing on this paper!"

"But I can clearly smell the strange fragrance it emits!How can there be nothing?Don't you smell it?" When asking like this, Ji Muqing still firmly believed that as long as he touched this note, anyone could smell the strange fragrance that he could still smell at the moment, although it had become very faint.

But the palace doctor didn't dare to lie, so he could only truthfully give him a disappointing answer - "The prince forgives the sin, the villain really didn't hear anything, and he really couldn't test what was on this paper...... Please forgive the villain for being incompetent......"

After Ji Muqing heard this, he stopped talking. He silently took the note from the hand of the house doctor, and stared at it thoughtfully for a long time before letting the house doctor, who had been waiting for a long time, step back as if he had finally come back to his senses.

Then he summoned his cronies, Amu, who had just returned to the house today, to come and interrogate.

"Did you find him?"

"I found it! At your orders, I hung the token he gave you on the tree he had designated, and two days later, he came to me on his own initiative!"

"And where is he now? Why didn't he come back with you?"

"He thinks the palace is too eye-catching, and says that he likes to live in a secluded place, so I will place him in a courtyard on the outskirts of yours. ”

"Oh...... Then you go and prepare your horse now! I'm going to see him now!"

"Yes!"

After saying that, the two immediately went their separate ways.

Amu went to the stable and led Ji Muqing and his own mounts to the back door of the palace to wait, while Ji Muqing quickly went back to the room to change into the clothes that the civilian men here were used to, and didn't have time to recomb his hair, only took off the headdress, scattered his hair, and then went straight to the back door to meet Amu.

Then, the two rode their horses together and galloped towards Ji Muqing's courtyard outside the city.

——

By the time they reached the courtyard, it was already dark.

Originally, when Ji Muqing walked straight to the courtyard where the guests were located, he was a little hesitant to go in recklessly to disturb because it was getting late?

But he didn't want to, but just as he hesitated, the guests in the courtyard seemed to have noticed that he was wandering outside for a long time, so they played the piano in the house, as if to answer his confusion......

As soon as Ji Muqing heard the long-lost piano sound, he immediately understood the meaning of the guest, and finally walked into the courtyard without any burden, and went straight to the room where the guest was.

Following the sound of the piano, Ji Muqing realized that the guest did not live in the main house he thought he had made, but chose the most remote hut in the courtyard. But now the door is open. It was as if the guest had expected him to come that day—— even if it was too late!

Thinking that even though he had been separated for nearly ten years, he still knew himself so well, Ji Muqing suddenly felt a trace of emotion and sadness that he hadn't felt for many years......

"Since you're here, why don't you come in? You sent someone to look for me, you probably didn't just want to listen to my piano, right?"

Ji Muqing smiled unconsciously when she heard this, and immediately strode into the house and closed the door by the way.

"It's been a long time, and you still haven't changed at all!"

"No, I've changed ......"

"Really?" As he spoke, Ji Muqing deliberately stepped forward, as if to take a closer look and see what had changed in him?

But the sound of the piano suddenly stopped at this moment!

Ji Muqing immediately understood that his joke had passed, so he retreated with interest.

Then he got down to business seriously: "Okay, I won't mess with you." Tianyi, this time I specially came to you to ask you to fulfill the favor you owed me back then, which is really helpless...... I hope you'll help me!"

- It turned out that Ji Muqing specially sent his cronies to find help, which was Dong Tianyi of the Dong family.

"Are you referring to the struggle for imperial power between your father, son, and brother?"

"Alas, though I do want that throne very much...... But you also know that in the current situation, I must get this throne! Otherwise, I will definitely die!"

"Yes, indeed, but if you want me to help you, there is one condition!"

"On what terms?"

Ji Muqing knew that even if he was kind to Dong Tianyi, but after all, it was indeed too risky for him to ask Dong Tianyi to help, if it didn't work, it would not only affect Dong Tianyi himself! It would also affect the entire Dong family behind him! Therefore, he would put forward conditions, and Ji Muqing felt that it was also very reasonable!

"Help me find out all the chess pieces that Gao Liwen has planted in your court, and then find a way to get rid of them all! Leave not a single one! This is not too much to ask! Moreover, it will also be beneficial to you!"

"Gao Liwen, are you talking about the Gao Liwen of the Gao family of Yunxiang Kingdom?"

"Yes! That's him!"

"What?!What do you mean?!, isn't that Gao Liwen, who had eight friendships with my father, actually harbored evil intentions against my Jiaoguo and tried to seek power and usurp the throne?!"

"What? You don't believe it?"

"No! I just didn't expect it...... Ji Muqing thought about it for a while, and then asked again: "That's right......! Even if he did secretly set up a spy in my court, with your temperament, since it has nothing to do with you, why did you suddenly take care of my affairs?"

Having said that, Ji Muqing knew in his heart that Dong Tianyi definitely didn't do it for him! Moreover, the request that Dong Tianyi mentioned was definitely out of some kind of consideration of his own, not for him!

"For the Dong family!"

"For the Dong family?"

At the same time as asking such a rhetorical question, Ji Muqing immediately thought of a lot, so he hurriedly asked: "Could it be that Gao Liwen also attacked your Dong family?! Even if it is Tiange, he does not dare to rashly provoke your Dong family, so how can he Gao Liwen dare to openly provoke your Dong family while coveting my Banana Country?!—— unless he is crazy!"

"No, he's not crazy! he hasn't really made any changes to our Dong family. It's just that he made the mistake of provoking a person who shouldn't be messed with the most!

"Who?"

Dong Tianyi glanced at Ji Muqing with a little hesitation, and then confessed to him as if he had made up his mind: "You and I are friends, and I won't hide it from you...... It's my fiancée!"

"What? Your fiancée?!You, when did you get married? Why didn't I receive any news?! No matter how mysterious your Dong family is, you won't even make the marriage so mysterious, right?!"

"This has nothing to do with the Dong family......!

"What?!Private for life?!"

Ji Muqing couldn't believe what his own ears were hearing at the moment! His eyes widened in disbelief, as if he wanted to see through Dong Tianyi, staring straight at him!

Dong Tianyi's face was slightly embarrassed by him, and he deliberately returned to the truth with some impatience:

"You don't need to be too curious about me!

"As far as I know, that Gao Liwen has not only coveted your banana country for a long time...... In fact, those small countries that connected Yunxiang Kingdom and Jiao Kingdom were really controlling them now by the forces of Tiange and Gao Liwen! The imperial courts of those small countries were completely vulnerable in front of them, and they were not worth mentioning!

"Needless to say, Yunxiang's domestic ones! Even in your Jiao Country, Gao Liwen's forces scattered in the rivers and lakes alone have basically spread all over the entire territory of your Jiao Country! And your imperial court ...... You might as well think about how Gao Liwen climbed up to your father, the righteous brother?!

"It's not a good thing to say...... What kind of person is his 'brother'......

Ji Muqing knew that Dong Tianyi was satirizing his father's murder of his siblings and destroying his family, and if Gao Liwen really succeeded in usurping the throne, it would really be a retribution—— and in the end, his father would die tragically in the hands of his own "Eight Worships"!

"Your statement is fresh...... although she felt very uncomfortable in her heart, Ji Muqing still deliberately teased her like this.

But then he suddenly changed the tone and returned to the original point: "Okay! I promise you! I will thoroughly investigate the spies that Gao Liwen has secretly planted in my court and get rid of them as soon as possible! Then you can listen to my request now, right?"

"Tell me, what do you want me to help you?"

"Hmm...... Originally, I was just worried that once the situation was so bad that I had to fight with my father and my five emperor brothers, I would need your Dong family to help me in time......! Then I can't easily let go of this great opportunity that may help me turn the tide!"

"What do you mean......"

"Well, if you're all right, stay here for a few days. Maybe in a few days, I'll introduce you to a new friend......"

"Huh?"

Dong Tianyi looked at Ji Muqing with a little puzzlement. But Ji Muqing's eyes at the moment are clearly trying to play tricks, and he will never tell him the truth easily!

And Dong Tianyi also has his own selfish intentions: according to the report of the spies he sent, Gao Ran was also in this Luoyang City at this time! And when he knew her whereabouts, he immediately thought that it might be related to Gao Liwen—— because the most likely threat to her life at the moment was Gao Liwen, who had already gone to meet her in person! And with Gao Ran's character, she couldn't have made a strong move without making the first move—— otherwise, she wouldn't have sent Gao Xi to inform him about Gao Liwen's ill intentions towards the Dong family!

Therefore, the reason why Dong Tianyi came so quickly this time was not really eager to repay the life-saving grace owed by Ji Muqing, who was the same age as him, because he couldn't know how to water but fell into the water when he fell into the water, but because he wanted to use this as an excuse to find Gao Ran's exact whereabouts earlier, and find her one step ahead of Gao Liwen! By the way, he also took the opportunity of this incident to let Ji Muqing help him eradicate most of Gao Liwen's forces in the Jiaoguo Kingdom secretly spread on both sides of the court and the rivers and lakes!

He didn't want Gao Ran to have an accident! And he also believed that even if he didn't say it, Gao Ran himself would find a way to eradicate some of Gao Liwen's forces! And in this way, it would be that the three of them were "working together" to fight against Gao Liwen! It was not impossible to eradicate Gao Liwen's forces in the Banana Country as soon as possible!

With such selfishness, Dong Tianyi was naturally willing to stay longer! He didn't bother Ji Muqing to talk too much, as soon as he heard him propose this, Dong Tianyi didn't care which "new friend" he wanted to introduce to him, so he directly agreed to stay!
