Liangcheng is a land of fish and rice, the streets and alleys have the atmosphere of the south of the Yangtze River, because it is very close to the Haihe River, most of the people here take fish and meat as their staple food, the west side of Liangcheng is the wharf specially established by the imperial court, no matter how big or small the boat, they have to pass through here to go everywhere, which is equivalent to the waterway checkpoint set up by the imperial court.

And not far from the wharf, there are several other small wharves, which are built spontaneously by the local people, because of the cumbersome procedures of the wharf established by the imperial court, for most of the people who go to sea to fish and do business, it is really inconvenient.

The sea, for feudal antiquity, is a symbol of mystery, it is unpredictable, moody, perhaps, this moment is still glamorous, the next moment will be huge, devouring fishing boats and people's lives, in the eyes of the people, the sea is boundless, only rely on the sun to identify the direction, but, there will be many people who go out to sea to fish and never return, therefore, the local people call the sea the sea god again, and every year will hold a sacrificial ceremony, in order to obtain the blessing of the sea god, protect the family to return safely.

Baili Game and his party did not go to the wharf established by the imperial court, but came to a small wharf far away from other wharves, where business seemed to be very deserted, only two or three small fishing boats were scattered on the sea surface of the wharf, and the surrounding reeds were more than one person high, swaying from side to side under the blowing of the breeze, and only one of the small wooden houses was lit by faint candlelight.

The crescent moon is reflected on the sea, and as the ripples break into several pieces, a few stars faintly dot the night sky, and although the night is quiet, it also adds a touch of eerie atmosphere.

Just when Baili Game and others just came to the dock, the door of the cabin opened, and a middle-aged man walked out of it, he looked ordinary, but there was a touch of lean between his eyebrows and eyes, a canvas shirt, and a fishing hat made of reed grass behind him, he seemed to have been waiting for the arrival of Baili Game and others, and hurriedly greeted him, seemingly respectful but like flattery, walked to the carriage and bowed and smiled: "Hakka, you are finally here, in order to wait for your big deal, the old man has not dared to take any deal for several days."

As soon as he finished speaking, the window of the carriage opened, revealing the gentle face of Baili Game, he looked at the middle-aged man, and then looked around inadvertently at the eyelids, the reeds that were high for a person shook slightly, not like a breeze, he knew it in his heart, and smiled faintly at the middle-aged man: "You're polite, I'm a person who likes to be quiet, that's why I picked you here, but don't worry, I said I would pay you three times the price, and I won't treat you badly."

"Hey, hey, dare to ask the Hakka if they plan to set off overnight? I'm really embarrassed, because I only got the news of Hakka last night, yesterday afternoon, the big boat borrowed someone else, and said that it was the day after tomorrow to come back, you see, did you delay your trip"? The middle-aged man suddenly said with a guilty face, but the corner of his eye skipped the carriage, and his eyes shot straight into the dense forest not far away.

Baili Game frowned slightly, seemed to hesitate, and thought for a moment before saying softly: "It's not delaying the trip, it's just, hey", he sighed lightly, "It seems that I will stay in this Liangcheng for two more days."

After hearing this, the middle-aged man suddenly knelt on the ground, the guilt on his face deepened, and he kept blaming himself: "Hakka, I'm really sorry, I'm really sorry, otherwise, I'll lower the price, but don't go, for you, the old man hasn't taken business for several days, if you are not at my house, the old man's family will probably have to go to the street to ask for food this month."

"You don't have to be like this, just stay for two days, just take advantage of these two days, I also have a good feel for the Jiangnan customs of Liangcheng, you go down and arrange a place to stay", Baili Game peeked at the reeds again, only to see that the reeds were as good as ever, and I was relieved.

Fang Hao arranged Baili Game and others in a private house not far from the dock, as soon as he entered the room, Baili Game called Rong You, Rong You was his personal attendant, and when Rong You entered the house, Baili Game did not speak, the two made eye contact, knowing that Rong You had been arranged, and strengthened the guard around, and there was no Nangong Ling's person to hide, so he ordered: "Go and call Fang Hao."

After a while, Fang Hao followed Rong You into the house, and as soon as he saw Baili Game, he immediately knelt down on one knee and said respectfully: "Fang Hao sees the second prince."

Baili Game sat on the upper seat in the middle of the room, took a sip of tea, his eyes instantly became fierce, he looked at Fang Hao and said in a deep voice: "Get up, fortunately you are alert, otherwise, it will definitely make Nangong Ling's secret guards see the flaws."

Fang Hao glanced at Rong You, his eyes deepened, "Second Prince, you are a little too anxious this time, which will make Nangong Ling suspicious, but Fang Cai's words can only be relieved for a moment, and when they give Nangong Ling, I am afraid they will have to return, when the time comes, how will your plan be implemented?"

Baili Game sighed lightly, his gentle face flashed a touch of cruelty, he gently put down the teacup in his hand, and sighed: "I also know that this rush will make people suspicious, but, you don't know the situation during the day, if it weren't for my strong request, plus Lian Tianyan's cooperation, I'm afraid, Nangong Ling's people will send our group out of the country, if they turn back to Liangcheng by then, they will miss the time to return to China, and then Nangong Ling will definitely have some doubts, but it will affect the plan."

"What are the plans of the second prince now"? Fang Hao thought for a while, looked at Baili Game and asked.

"Tonight wait and see what happens, after a while, you hurry up to arrange, tomorrow if Nangong Ling's people are still there, then the day after tomorrow, if the day after tomorrow is still there, at most find a reason to stay here, however, no more than five days at most, I am afraid that my father will be suspicious."

"Yes, the subordinates will do it", after Fang Hao walked out, Baili Game stood up and came to the door, looking at the fragrant flowers in the courtyard, frowning slightly, and said lightly: "Nangong Ling and Nangong Yu have been fighting secretly for many years, only one fuse is missing, I hope I am not mistaken, then Shui Lianyue is the best fuse, if the two can be attracted to put the fight on the bright side, the turmoil of the Jin Xi Dynasty is the best proof to my father."

Rong You looked at the thin back of the hundred miles game, a faint melancholy flashed in his eyes, and said softly: "The ability of the second prince is well known, but the emperor is hesitant to choose the crown prince, which is indeed unsettling, the eldest prince is eyeing the eldest prince, the third prince and the fourth prince support the eldest prince, the fifth prince remains neutral, the sixth prince is still young, and he is soft-spoken, and only by following the emperor's will can he prove his strength, I believe that the emperor knows it, and he will definitely show everything to the second prince."

As soon as Rong You's voice fell, he saw Baili Game shaking his head slightly, and sighed: "My father is suspicious by nature, I tried my best to get him to look at him differently, at this time, it is the most eventful moment, the eldest brother has followed his father's side for many years, but he doesn't understand his father's mind, he is blind, he only wants to win more favor from his father, but he doesn't know the long-term way, as an emperor, who doesn't want to dominate the world, which emperor is willing to submit to the knees of others, the father wants to rebel against Jin Xi, it's not overnight, if this thing can be done, I must not show my edge, then I will be suspicious of my father, and if there is a trace of suspicion, then the crown prince will only be farther and farther away from me."

Rong Yu nodded as if he didn't understand, in the house, there was only silence, the garden was full of flowers, but Baili Game didn't pay attention to it, he looked at the stars in the night sky, stood with his hands in his hands, and more of what appeared in his mind was the beautiful and arrogant face of Shui Lianyue.

It is indeed a pity that such a woman who is hard to find in the world has become a victim of the regime.

In the imperial study in the Jinxi Palace, Nangong Ling listened to the information sent by the secret guard, and the whole person fell into deep thought, perhaps, his suspicious heart misjudged? Suddenly, he shook his head again, with a hundred miles of game, what he wanted to do would never be so simple.

"Continue to keep an eye on him, report anything to me immediately", after a long time, Nangong Ling came back to his senses and commanded the dark guard in a deep voice.

"Yes, the subordinates receive the order", the secret guard quickly withdrew from the imperial study, in the huge imperial study, there was only Nangong Ling alone at the moment, he sat on the dragon chair, looking at the still half of the twists, he didn't have the heart to continue to read, and suddenly remembered the news brought by the dark guard at noon, it is said that Nangong Yu sent someone to Luchang County, I don't know what it is, although he sent someone to follow, but unexpectedly Nangong Yu's people were extremely alert, and he got rid of his secret guard lightly, which was really hateful.

However, it can be seen from this that Nangong Yu is afraid that he is going to take action.

"Little Lingzi", suddenly, he looked outside the door and shouted coldly, only to see the door open, Xiao Lingzi slowly walked in and knelt on the ground, "What does the emperor command"?

Nangong Ling's eyes immediately flashed a sharp color, and he asked in a deep voice, "Can you find out the identity of the woman who lives in King Yu's mansion?"

"When I went back to the emperor, I found out, and I said that it was the youngest daughter of the city lord of Wuge City, Princess Lu Yuan."

"Oh"? Nangong Ling was suddenly surprised, "Hey, how could this Princess Lu Yuan come to the capital?" That barbarian land is far away from the Central Plains, but King Yu sent someone to pick it up"?

Xiao Lingzi shook his head and replied respectfully: "Back to the emperor, the slave bought off the guards of King Yu's mansion, and only then did he learn the news, I heard that he went alone, and accidentally fell off a cliff in Taifo Mountain outside Suzhou City, and was found and rescued by King Yu's people."

"Is the message reliable"?

"The minion didn't ask much at the time, so he didn't arouse the guard's suspicion, so he shouldn't tell lies to fool the minion."

Nangong Ling frowned slightly, since Princess Lu Yuan, the daughter of the city lord of Wuge City, came to the capital, how could he, the master, lose his etiquette and not go to meet him? In an instant, he hooked the corners of his mouth, showed a strange smile, and said brightly: "Spread my message to go to Yuwang's mansion, and bring some good ginseng and deer antler velvet and other tonic medicines, just say that I have learned that the princess has come to the capital, and I know that the princess is injured and sent tonics, and when the princess recovers from her serious illness, I will hold a banquet in the palace to wash the dust for the princess."

Xiao Lingzi was slightly stunned, and said with some surprise: "Your Majesty, you are the Ninety-Five, can you afford to lower your noble status for the sake of a little barbarian princess?" Ordering someone to send some tonic medicine is already the emperor's grace, and it is too late for her to be grateful."

Nangong Ling interrupted Xiao Lingzi's words as soon as he raised his hand, his face was a little gloomy, "I have my own plans, my royal brother has never been close to women, and now, I just married a stunning woman as a princess, but I brought a princess into the palace, do you know, what does it mean?"

Xiao Lingzi was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said, "The slave is stupid, and I hope the emperor will make it clear."

"If I knew, would I still need to lower my status and set up a banquet for a barbarian princess? Nangong Yu has to intervene in anything, but I want to stir him up and mess up."

Xiao Lingzi looked at the hideous color that quickly flashed on the emperor's face, his heart trembled slightly, and he hurriedly received the will and withdrew from the imperial study.
