"If you are humble, you don't believe that the power of the entire Dark Night Camp will not be able to protect the prince." There was a sense of arrogance and conceit in the shadow prisoner's words.

Xiao Shunzi heard it and smiled slightly, "With our strength, we can indeed protect the prince, but where can we escape?" Wu Guo, Xia Guoyi or Hersher? ”

The shadow prisoner was dumbfounded by his question, yes, no matter which country he fled to, he would be chased endlessly. The night camp can protect it for a while, but it can't protect it for a lifetime.

"Military power and military exploits are the best talisman of the prince, as long as the military power is in hand, even if His Majesty knows that the dark night camp is in the hands of the prince, he will not dare to act rashly. So this battle, no matter what the cost, must be won! ”

"Humble duty understands! Arrange it as soon as you go back! "Xiao Shunzi's foresight impressed the Shadow Prisoner, and it is no wonder that he can lurk by Gongliang Rongruo for years without being suspected.

Xiao Shunzi bowed his head slightly, and said in a cool voice: "Have you found out the informant?" "If it weren't for someone to send a message to Gongliang Rongruo through Ruoqiu's hand, and let him be careful with Gongliang's words, there would be no troubles at all. The existence of this person made Xiao Shunzi uneasy, so as early as when he sent a message to Ye Xuemei, he asked the shadow prisoner to secretly track down.

The shadow prisoner shook his head and said, "The lowly government sent a lot of people to investigate, but there was no news, as if he never appeared at all. ”

Xiao Shunzi narrowed her eyes, "Keep checking, you must find this person." ”

"Yes." After the shadow prisoner responded, he showed a look of wanting to speak and stopped, Xiao Shunzi saw it, and said, "If you have anything to say, say it." ”

The shadow prisoner said with a suspicious face: "The disaster of the prince originated from Your Majesty, as long as Your Majesty is dead, all problems will naturally be solved." You should be aware of this, Your Holiness. ”

Xiao Shunzi tugged at the corners of her lips and said with a smile: "You want to ask, why didn't I kill Your Majesty?" ”

"Yes."

Xiao Shunzi did not answer immediately, but drank the tea slowly, until a cup of tea was drunk, he said: "With my martial arts, it is easy to kill him alone, but he ...... Never alone. ”

The shadow prisoner was stunned in his heart, "Is His Holiness saying that His Majesty has always been guarded by his side?" ”

"Yes, wherever he goes, he will be followed by two people, but these two people, I have never seen." When she said this, Xiao Shunzi's expression was unusually solemn.

The shadow prisoner was puzzled: "I don't understand what His Holiness means. ”

"It's more apt to say that it's not so much a person as a shadow, invisible but everywhere. In fact, in this Zhaoming Palace, I'm afraid that no one except me knows about their existence. They are always by His Majesty's side, even when His Majesty is fortunate to be a concubine. ”

The shadow prisoner pondered for a moment, and said in some disbelief: "Is Venerable saying that they exist in the form of shadows? "Although the people of the Night Camp are good at concealment, it is impossible to completely hide their tracks. is like a prisoner, if he wants to follow Gongliang Yuzhi, he must borrow the identity of a guard.

"Yes, if you want to kill Your Majesty, you have to kill these two people first. And I'm ......," Xiao Shunzi sighed softly, "and I'm not completely sure." ”

The shadow prisoner's throat tightened, people are not ghosts, there are entities, and they must exist in the form of shadows...... It's hard to imagine. After picking up the cup of tea that Xiao Shunzi poured for him, he felt better, "But do you want lowly people to enter the palace to help the Venerable attack and kill?" ”

He and the Star Prisoner are all first-class masters, no matter how high the martial arts of those two "shadows" are, no matter how weird their body skills are, they can resist for a while.

Xiao Shunzi shook his head and said: "A few of you are used to the exposure of your breath, and you can only hide from ordinary martial artists in disguise, if you meet a real master, you will be discovered before you get close." Besides, even if you kill Your Majesty, it won't help. ”

The shadow prisoner was stunned by what he said, "Why did His Holiness say that?" ”

Xiao Shunzi said lightly: "When the first emperor was dying, he once wanted to abolish the prince, but finally gave up this idea, do you know why?" ”

After thinking for a moment, the shadow prisoner said, "The Wan clan is huge, and no one can sit firmly in the position of the Xingde Hall except for the crown prince. ”

"It is precisely this reason, so after thinking about it several times, the first emperor still passed the throne to the crown prince."

"It was then, and it is now. Killing a good man will not solve the prince's crisis at all. The Wan clan entrenched in our Song Kingdom is the key. If it weren't for that, even if he fought to the death, he would have killed Gongliang Rongruo.

After the shadow prisoner nodded, Xiao Shunzi said again: "How are the two forbidden soldiers?" ”

"The lowly officials have arranged for them to be sent out of Kaifeng City along with their families, and no one will find them. As for the antidote to the Divine Pill, at this time of year, the lowly position will send someone to send it. ”

"Okay." Xiao Shunzi bowed his head and said, "There's nothing else, you can go back." Remember my words, even if you overturn the entire Dark Night Camp, you must help the prince win this battle! ”

"Humble duty, remember the commands of His Holiness!" After the shadow prisoner saluted Xiao Shunzi again, he quietly left, disappearing into the deep night.

"Goo-goo!" A pigeon flew down in front of the Xingde Palace, and the palace people who had been waiting there for a long time picked up the pigeon and came to a small ear room next to the East Side Hall, "Girl, the carrier pigeon is back." ”

After reading the contents of the letter, Gongliang Rongruo said coldly: "It turned out that it was for the sake of spies, no wonder Yuan Chun wanted to kill Wang He at all costs." ”

At this time, Yingyi frowned on the side and said, "Your Majesty, this letter is fake." ”

Gongliang raised his eyes in astonishment, "What did you say?" ”

"When the slaves and maids send messages to them, in order to prevent them from being counterfeited, they will leave a code at the end, but this letter is not, and the handwriting is not correct." With that, she took out a few pieces of paper hidden in her sleeve and presented them to Gongliang Rongruo. These are all Feishu exchanges in the past month or so, as Yingyi said, there are a few black spots under each letter, at first glance, it looks like the ink spots that were accidentally thrown on it when I finished writing and picked up the pen. Only the new one was clean, and there was not a single ink spot.

"They don't make such a mistake, so the slave is sure that this reply is fake."

Gongliang Rongruo put down the letter in his hand, wrinkled his eyebrows and said, "Didn't the carrier pigeon fly directly to them?" How can it be faked? ”

Yingyi lowered her eyes for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Someone may have intercepted the carrier pigeon halfway, or it may be before the carrier pigeon arrives...... They're already dead. ”

"You mean someone killed them?"

Yingyi said with a solemn face: "The slave thinks about it, there are only two possibilities. Without waiting for the good face to speak, she said: "As soon as the city gate is opened tomorrow, the slave and maid will send someone to the north." ”

There were bursts of cicadas outside the window, endlessly, which made Gongliangrong a little impetuous, and got up and walked back and forth a few times before suppressing the irritability in his heart, "If they are killed because of Wang He's incident, then Wang He's return to Beijing is probably not for the sake of spy." ”

Yingyi echoed: "The slave maid also thinks that it is not, after all, the task assigned to them by the slave maid is to monitor King Ning. The affairs of the state of Wu...... It is not within their purview. ”
