Chapter 133: Night Detective Intelligence
"What a strange woman." Dong Yunyu sighed to himself.
She recalled the words that Lu Zhiye had just said to him when she stood at the door, this is the royal station, and you can't enter without a token? Then since this woman can sit in the elegant seat by the window on the second floor, she must not be an ordinary person. Dongyun Yu didn't think much about it anymore, he would definitely meet this woman again in the future, and it was useless to think about it so much now.
Standing up from the barrel, she put on a white silk cloak, sat down at the desk, and took a pen to write a line of words on rice paper.
"Zhixia." She called out to the outside of the house, and called in a maid in a dark blue skirt.
"Your Highness the Princess!" The maid who was called Zhixia came in and saluted Dongyun Yu.
Dong Yunyu waved his hand casually and motioned for Zhixia to get up: "You send this letter back to the imperial brother." β
Zhixia took the letter handed by Dongyun Yu, and on the envelope was written in thin gold letters, the imperial brother received.
"Will it be handed over directly to the guards, or will the slaves secretly send the letter?" Zhixia lowered his voice and asked.
Dong Yunyu had already spread out a piece of rice paper on his case, and he didn't turn his head to look at Zhixia, and said directly: "Give it to the guards, it's not a big deal, it's just a routine report." β
Zhixia took the letter and was about to go out, but when he walked at the door, he remembered something, turned around and asked Dongyunyu: "Your Royal Highness Princess, I don't know if you plan to tell the eldest prince about the assassination?" β
Dongyun Yuyou, who had already picked up the pen, put it back, raised his eyes and looked in the direction of Zhixia: "I don't plan to say it, and you don't want to tell the imperial brother at that time." β
Dong Yunyu, who knew that Xia was originally the secret guard beside the imperial brother, and now although he was sent to protect himself for his own use, he was still the imperial brother's person, and he was likely to skip himself and report the news directly to the imperial brother, so she had to give an order.
Zhixia obviously felt that it was slightly inappropriate for Dong Yunyu to hide the assassination, so he said: "But Your Royal Highness the Princess, the eldest prince has always cared about your safety, and it seems inappropriate not to tell the prince if someone tries to assassinate you." β
The imperial brother has always known that Dong Yunyu values herself, but because of this, she doesn't want the imperial brother to divide his energy to worry about his own affairs.
"Brother Huang is already very busy, even if I tell him about the matter in Wei Kingdom, he can't do anything even in Yun Kingdom, why bother him with more worries?" This remark is also reasonable, Zhixia was successfully persuaded by Dongyun Yu and said no more.
Dong Yunyu himself wrote three words on the rice paper in front of him, and the wolf pen stained with ink wrote the three big characters of "Lu Zhiye" in a few ups and downs.
Looking at the few words on the paper, Dong Yunyu was distracted again and read out silently.
Dong Yunyu, who was in a daze, heard Zhixia's voice outside the house at this time: "Send the princess's letter back." β
She must have handed over the letter to the guards guarding the door, and they would send it back safely.
Zhixia, who thought that he could explain things clearly with this sentence, had already turned around and walked away, but was stopped by the guard behind him: "Miss Zhixia, Her Royal Highness the princess only wrote that the royal brother received it in this letter, I don't know if it is the eldest prince or the second prince?" β
When Xia Yi was stunned when he asked this question, Dong Yunyu, who was listening in the room, also frowned.
Zhixia first glanced at the room with a worried face, Xu was afraid that Dong Yunyu would be unhappy when he heard this question, and only after seeing that there was no special movement in the room did he turn his head to look at the guard.
"Are you new here?" Zhixia pulled the guard to the corner of the room, far away from Dongyun Yu, and asked in a low voice.
The guard also saw that he had just said the wrong thing, but he didn't know what he was wrong, so he could only answer Zhixia's question with a blank face: "It hasn't been long since my subordinates were recruited into the army. β
This answer made Zhixia even more puzzled: "You are a newcomer, how did you get into the princess's wedding team, and you are also a close guard." β
The guards who protect Dongyun Yu in close quarters shouldn't be such a small role.
The guard also heard the contempt for himself in Zhixia's words, scratched the back of his head a little embarrassed, and patiently explained: "Although I am newly recruited, I don't know the rules very well, but I am not bad, and the general appreciates it, so he sent me to protect the princess." β
In this way, it seems to make sense, Zhixia didn't ask any more, and only said to him: "Don't mention the second prince at will in the future, in our place, as long as you talk about 'prince' and 'royal brother', you will be the eldest prince." β
The guard didn't know why, but he nodded, and the two of them said no more, turning and walking back to the house.
When Zhixia opened the door and went in, he saw Dong Yunyu writing with a pen again, and it was still the words "Lu Zhiye".
"This thin Jin Xiaokai is so perfect, it must have been practiced hard for several years." Although Zhixia is a secret guard, the royal family in Lianyun Country all the year round has also undergone a lot of influence from qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, and knows a little in all aspects.
Dong Yunyu himself smiled faintly: "When I started practicing calligraphy a few years ago, I thought, why do we Lian Yunguo want to learn the Chinese characters of the Central Plains, and why do most people in the world take the Central Plains as orthodox." I asked my father this, and my father was very happy, saying that it was great to have such grievances, and he did not answer my question directly, but only told me that I must grow up well and work hard with my brother to make our country stronger and become orthodox in the world. β
Zhixia Ben just casually commented on Dongyunyu's calligraphy, but it led to Dongyunyu's memories of the past, and he couldn't help but sigh at the moment: "Her Royal Highness the princess married Wei and her relatives, and has made a great contribution to the prosperity of Lianyun Kingdom."
Dongyun Yu smiled, there seemed to be a bit of bitterness in her smile, she didn't want to continue the topic, and asked instead, "Who asked that question outside just now?"
Zhixia guessed that Dongyun Yu would care about this issue very much, her relationship with the second prince has always been incompatible, how could someone be allowed to treat the second prince as his imperial brother.
"I'm a newcomer, so I don't know much about it. The slave had just told him that he would not do it again. β
"Since you're new here, if you don't understand these things, forget it." Dong Yunyu also knew the truth that those who didn't know were not guilty, and didn't pursue anything more.
The master and servant didn't say much, Dong Yunyu was still practicing her words on rice paper one by one, and Zhixia stood quietly aside.
At this time, it was the dead of night, the curfew in the capital, and there were no pedestrians on the street, but on the roof of the royal inn, two people in night clothes were lying on a small hole, inquiring about the movement in the house.
The warm yellow light came out of the hole that had opened a brick, and from there you could see Dongyunyu and Zhixia in the house, the master and servant had stopped talking now, and the two men in black saw that there was no longer any information, so they gave each other a look, and got up and left.
The two figures that leaped out of the roof of the post house landed on the roof next door, jumped harder, flew farther away, and finally entered the palace with golden tiles and red walls.
Jiang Wan returned to his dormitory, took off his night clothes, and when he came out with an embroidered Luo skirt, he found that Lu Zhixing had not yet known his own heart cultivation hall, and was still wearing black clothes, sitting lazily in the house.
"Why don't you go back?" Jiang Wan asked while tidying up his clothes.
Lu Zhixing pursed his lips, showed an aggrieved expression, spread his hands, and sighed at Jiang Wan: "When I want to go out to see the excitement, when I want to eavesdrop on other people's corners, I always have wide eyes, and I can say any sweet words, rubbing around in my hands, I don't need me now, that's the attitude."
Jiang Wan remembered that a few hours ago, after she came back from watching the excitement outside the palace, she was still restless and wanted to visit the post station at night to listen to the corner of the house, but she didn't know martial arts, so she wanted to take Lu Zhixing together.
Lu Zhixing was unwilling, but in the end, Jiang Wan threatened to go to Lu Zhiye to accompany him, and Lu Zhixing suddenly had a sense of crisis, so he immediately agreed to Jiang Wan's idea.
"I have a good attitude, you did go back to change your clothes, wear a night suit and wander around the palace, be careful that Jin Wuwei will arrest you as an assassin." While Jiang Wan spoke, he even made a grimace at Lu Zhixing, which was very naΓ―ve, but also cute.
Lu Zhixing stepped forward and grabbed Jiang Wan's shoulders and took him into his arms: "I'm wearing a night suit, and I really shouldn't be walking around in the palace, so I'll stay here with you tonight."
Jiang Wan's original wish was to hope that Lu Zhixing would be able to leave, but unexpectedly, he fell into Lu Zhixing's arms.
Looking at Jiang Wan's surprised look, Lu Zhixing laughed twice, looking very happy.
Jiang Wan was secretly speechless, no longer entangled in this topic, but asked about serious things: "Today at the post station, can you see clearly, what words has Dong Yunyu been writing on her rice paper?"
Lu Zhixing shook his head: "I only saw the first word clearly, and the rest of the words were blocked by his body, I don't know what the color is, but it should be a personal name."
Jiang Wan and Lu Zhixing's peeping direction was indeed above the back of Dong Yunyu, so it was difficult to see what words were written on the paper in front of Dong Yunyu.
I don't know what kind of medicine Jiang Wan is buying in the gourd now, and it seems that he intends to hang Lu Zhixing's appetite: "It's a person's name, but now it's in Wei after all, Lu is the surname of Wei State, and there are too many people with the surname Lu."
Lu Zhixing also found out that Jiang Wan seemed to have some clues, so he also followed Jiang Wan's words: "But I always feel that what is written on Dongyun Jade paper is very important information for us, and we must find out whose name he wrote."
Jiang Wan also nodded, and at the same time, a sly light flashed in his eyes: "I saw her second word."
