The news that the husband was going to build a large number of buildings for Zheng Dan to live in was soon all over the harem, and all the women in the palace were jealous and envious, especially Wu Rong, who was so angry that he smashed all the things that could be smashed in the glazed hall, especially the hatred, and rushed to the Taiji Hall overnight to let the husband take back his life, and the husband knew his intention, so he stood outside the hall for most of the night, and never refused to meet.

Wu Rong was unwilling, so he went out of the palace to see Wu Zixu, only to know that he had already quarreled with his husband because of the construction of the Guanwa Palace, and they broke up unhappily.

Wu Rong sat down in the chair in despair, "So my husband and brother are determined to build a palace for that lowly Yue girl?" But...... Why? ”

She didn't understand, her husband knew that Zheng Dan was fake, and he had already snubbed her, so why did he still build a palace for her?

Wu Zixu stroked his long gray beard and said word by word: "He's angry with the old man!" ”

"Angry?" In Wu Rong's puzzled gaze, Wu Zixu said slowly: "The king is young and vigorous, and as the king of a country, he has long been dissatisfied with the old man's control everywhere. ”

Hearing this, Wu Rong immediately said: "But everything my righteous father did was for the good of the king. ”

"The king is surrounded by a group of villains such as Bo Yao all day long, and it is inevitable that he will be confused and unable to distinguish between good and bad." Wu Zixu took the tea cup that had just been brewed, and as the tea lid was opened, a mist of mist accompanied by the quiet fragrance of tea slowly spread, refreshing people's hearts.

"What then?" Looking at Wu Rong's anxious expression, Wu Zixu smiled slightly, "Rong'er doesn't need to worry, the king will soon understand who is loyal and who is treacherous." ”

Wu Rong perked up and hurriedly said, "Father-in-law has a way?" ”

Wu Zixu said: "Building a palace seems to be the idea of the second son, but between the lines of what he said, there is always a person." ”

Wu Rong thought for a moment and said, "Literature? ”

"Not bad." Wu Zixu said in a cool voice: "Zheng Dan was sent to the palace by him, and now he has taken the initiative to ask Ying to build the palace, and even does not hesitate to take out all his family funds, you say, is this reasonable?" ”

"It's strange, isn't it...... Is he trying to curry favor with the king? ”

"I'm afraid that the flattery is fake, and the espionage news is true." Hearing this, Wu Rong understood a little, and exclaimed: "Father-in-law suspects that he is a spy of the Yue Kingdom? ”

"The more cunning people are, but if there is a slightest possibility, you can't let it go." Saying that, Wu Zixu said again: "If he is really a spy, when the palace is built, there will definitely be changes, and then he can be arrested and captured, and the king can also understand who is a loyal minister and who is a traitor!" ”

Hearing this, Wu Rong's heart was relieved, and he smiled: "It's still my father-in-law who has a way." ”

Wu Zixu stroked her smooth forehead, "Over there in the palace, my father-in-law will let Gongsun Li star, but you ...... also keep an eye on someone for your father-in-law. ”

"Zheng Dan?"

Wu Zixu shook his head and said: "She is just a Yue girl who is difficult to get into the hall of elegance, she has a beautiful appearance, it is not worth our trouble, what I want you to focus on is the one next to the king." ”

"Yiguang?" After Wu Zixu nodded, Wu Rong said suspiciously: "That's a shallow palace maid, what are you doing staring at her?" ”

"Rough palace maid?" Wu Zixu sneered: "In the palace, there are thousands of palace maids, why did the king only transfer her to the Taiji Palace?" learned that she had an accident, and even nervously went out of the palace to rescue her, and even guarded her completely? ”

When it came to this, Wu Rong didn't feel good in his heart, "So my father-in-law suspects that she is also a spy?" ”

"It's not a doubt, it's a certainty." After a brief hesitation, Wu Zixu said: "There is one thing, my father-in-law has never told you, Yiguang is the Yue girl who saved the king." ”

Wu Rong stood up in shock, staring at Wu Zixu in disbelief, and the next moment she shook her head again and again, "This is impossible, absolutely impossible." ”

"Why?"

Wu Rong tried his best to sort out his chaotic thoughts, and said sourly: "The king said that the Yue Nu who saved him has a peerless appearance and the appearance of a sinking fish, but that Yiguang Kong has a vulgar face, how can it be the same." ”

"There is a transfiguration technique in this world, which can completely change a person's appearance into another person, not to mention just changing it to be ugly."

Wu Rong said suspiciously: "If this is the case, why doesn't she enter the palace by herself, but let the Zheng family replace her?" ”

Wu Zixu explained the original incident in detail, and then said: "Why didn't she reveal her identity afterwards, and my father-in-law couldn't figure it out, but this is also a good thing for us, at least it gives us more time." ”

Wu Rong bowed his head and said, "I know, I will keep an eye on her." ”

"This woman is cunning and changeable, and she has a clever tongue, you must remember to be careful, don't clash with her head-on when you encounter something, just tell your father-in-law."

After Wu Zixu explained a few more words, he said, "It's not early, my father-in-law will send you back to the palace." ”

"Hmm." Wu Rong left the Prime Minister's Mansion with him, and when he was on the way, he was suddenly stopped by a dirty beggar woman, holding a broken bowl and begging: "This girl is fine, I haven't eaten for several days, please reward me with a few dollars, let me buy a bun to eat." ”

Wu Rong hurriedly retreated, covering his mouth and nose with a look of disgust, Gongsun Li was also there, stepped forward to push her away, and scolded: "Where is the dirty woman, go away." ”

The beggar woman refused to leave, and kept pestering Wu Rong, who was so entangled that she couldn't do anything, and took out a few copper coins from the money bag and threw them into the greasy broken bowl, she suddenly felt that the beggar woman was a little familiar, "Hey, have I seen you somewhere?" ”

The beggar woman also seemed to recognize her, showed a frightened expression, and turned to leave, judging the two of them from the entanglement just now.

Her appearance aroused Wu Rong's suspicion even more, and she immediately ordered someone to stop her, and asked her to remove the hair on her mother-in-law's face so that she could see it more clearly.

After a long time, Wu Rong finally recognized it, and suddenly said: "I remember, you are the Yue girl who hid fish food in her hands at the fish watching conference." ”

"No...... No, you know...... Recognize the wrong person. The stammering appearance of the beggar woman made Wu Rong even more sure that he was not mistaken, and sneered: "I didn't expect you to be alive, it's really hard." ”

Seeing that she couldn't hide it, Yalan knelt on the ground with a thud and cried and begged: "The slave and maid know that they are wrong, ask the girl to spare the slave and maid's life, you can do whatever you want the slave and maid to do." ”

Wu Rong scoffed at her words, "Heh, it's just a lowly Yue girl, what can she do." ”

Yalan's mind raced, and she barely remembered one of her uses, "The slave maid has been living in the Yue Palace, and she can tell the girl about the things in the Yue Palace." ”

Her words attracted Wu Zixu's attention, "Who are you from King Yue?" ”

"The slave maid is the sister of Queen Yue, and she was brought here after the defeat of the Yue Kingdom." She was afraid that she would not be able to say anything about Wu Zixu, so she hurriedly said: "The slave knows many things, such as the king of Yue likes the son born to Mrs. Li the most; Once, the slave maid quietly saw him asking the strategist Zipi if he could make Madame Li's son the crown prince, and ......"

Wu Zixu's expression moved, "Have you ever seen Zipi?" ”

Seeing that he was interested in his words, Yalan hurriedly said: "I have met a few times, but his origin is very mysterious, and he has no family and no marriage." ”

Wu Zixu frowned slightly, "People who are nearly sixty years old haven't gotten married yet?" ”

"Sixty?" Yalan raised his head and looked at him in surprise, "Mr. Zipi is not even thirty years old." ”

This casual sentence fell into Wu Zixu's ears, but it was like a thunderclap, and he almost couldn't believe it, "You...... What do you say, say it again. ”

Yalan thought that he had said the wrong thing, and cried out in fright, tears leaving two funny marks on his dark face, "Mr. Zipi is really less than thirty years, and the slave didn't lie to you." ”

Wu Zixu's eyes were gloomy, he had seen the corpse of "Zipi", an old man of fifty or sixty years old, which did not match Yalan's words at all.

Yalan has no need or courage to lie to herself, so there is only one possibility, that is, Gongsun Li killed the wrong person, and the real Zipi is still alive.

Thinking of this, he looked at Gongsun Li angrily, the latter's face was like ashes, and he didn't need Wu Zixu to say, he also knew how much of a mistake he had made.

Wu Zixu looked back, stared at Yalan who was still kneeling on the ground, and said, "If you see Zipi again, can you recognize it?" ”

"Of course." Hearing Yalan's answer without thinking, Wu Zixu nodded and said, "Okay, you will be on an errand in the old man's mansion in the future." ”

"Thank you, sir!" Yalan was overjoyed and kowtowed again and again to thank him.

Wu Rong tightened her eyebrows and said, "Father-in-law, why did you take her in?" She's a girl. ”

"For my father's own plans, don't worry about it, I still have some things, let the housekeeper send you back to the palace." As he spoke, Wu Zixu told again: "Remember, don't talk about today's events with anyone, including the king." ”

They didn't notice that a woman was quietly staring at them not far away, taking in what had just happened.

Fan Li, who was borrowing grain from Vietnam, didn't know that Wu Zixu already knew that he had gotten out of his body, and the crisis was approaching step by step......

With the support of the husband and the funding of the literary species, the construction of the Guanwa Palace soon began, and the literary species also saw the husband, he was exquisite, and naturally coaxed the husband very happy, and took this opportunity to ask for the grace of seeing Zheng Dan.

Wen Chong stayed in the Mingfeng Hall for half an hour before leaving, and what he said, only he and Zheng Dan knew.

When he walked to the palace gate, Wen Chong saw Yiguang, who bent his knees and said softly: "The slave maid sent Mr. Wen out of the palace." ”

Wen Chong's eyes moved, and he returned the salute with a smile, "I'm tired." ”

After getting away from the eyes and ears of those guards, Yiguang Fang asked the doubts in his heart, "Why did Mr. Wen suggest that the second prince build the Guanwa Palace?" ”

Wen Chong smiled slightly, "The ingenuity of the legacy makes the palace room high, makes the best of its wealth, and exhausts its strength; This is the fifth technique of the Nine Techniques of Destroying Wu. ”

"On the surface, it seems that the money for the construction of the palace came from me, but there is always a part of it that has to be used by the treasury of the State of Wu, not to mention the manpower. In addition......" Wen Chong lowered his voice and said: "I plan to build a secret passage in the Guanwa Palace to facilitate secret discussions and discussions; Although it is possible to transmit messages at the moment, after all, the limitations are too great and it is really inconvenient. ”

"Does Mr. Fan know about this?"

"Of course." Wen Chong's face was not red and he said breathlessly: "This is a plan set by Brother Fan before he went to Yueguo, and we will try our best to cooperate." ”

Yiguang always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it, so he nodded and said, "I know, Mr. Wen is hard." ”

"You're welcome." After a pause, Wen Chong said solemnly: "By the way, Dongyun asked me to tell you that Fan Li's identity is probably impossible to hide." ”

Yiguang was shocked, "How can this be? ”

"Dongyun has been secretly monitoring Wu Zixu, a few days ago in the market, a beggar woman stopped Wu Zixu, it turned out that she was the sister of Queen Yayu, she had seen Zipi's true face; Fortunately, Brother Fan has now gone to Yue Guo to transfer grain, and he can still delay for a while, but sooner or later he will come back, and Wu Zixu will know that Brother Fan is Zipi. ”

"It's her again!" Yiguang said with a gloomy face: "Is there a way to kill her?" ”

"Dongyun tried, but Wu Zixu had already taken precautions, the house was heavily guarded, and he couldn't approach it at all, and Yayu never went out, which was really difficult." Wen Chong said worriedly, "You have always been resourceful, but what can you do?" ”

Yiguang didn't have much to do for a while, so he had to say: "Let me think about it carefully, and as soon as I have a way, I will immediately send a message to Mr. Wen." ”

"Okay, it must be as soon as possible." Saying this, Wen Chong left with his hands, and Yiguang also returned to the Taiji Hall.
