Longling Mountain is only more than 300 kilometers away from the imperial capital of the Sente Empire, and with Zhang Fan's speed and full strength, it can be reached in two or three hours, which is much faster than many means of transportation for scientific and technological civilization.

When Zhang Fan came to the imperial capital, the sky was already dark.

Another day passed, and in the prompt sound of the system, Zhang Fan got off the line on time.

When they came to the living room, Qiao Linger and the others had already gone offline and chatted on the sofa.

"Brother, you're finally out." Zhang Xiaoling raised her head.

Qiao Ling'er asked gently, "Have you found the jade pendant?" ”

Zhang Fan shook his head: "I don't have a clue yet, I guess I have to wait for a while." Moreover, this time a unique hidden quest was triggered, and I was going to complete the quest first, and then continue to find the jade pendant. It is estimated that the task will be completed in a few days. ”

As the wedding day gets closer and closer, Qiao Linger is becoming more and more gentle and considerate, perhaps adapting to the role of 'wife' in advance.

"What task?" Zhang Xiaoling asked curiously.

For this sister who has a particularly serious gossip psychology, Zhang Fan also didn't have a problem with her, so he explained softly.

Zhang Xiaoling was suddenly amazed as if she had discovered a new world, and said, "It's amazing that there is such a mission." But that Liu Yun is really lucky, she can live the addiction of the empress. It's a pity I didn't have such an opportunity, alas~"

"What, you still want to be an empress?" Zhang Fan couldn't laugh or cry.

The little girl said as a matter of course: "What's so bad about being the empress?" Look at Wu Zetian in the Tang Dynasty, how majestic!? ”

rubbed her hair vigorously, and in the little girl's dissatisfaction and protest, Zhang Fan said: "I really don't know what you have in your head." One day, I only know how to think about what I have and what I don't have, rather than thinking about it. It's better to level up more and wait for your strength to improve. Can you become a generation of empresses in the game? ”

Zhang Xiaoling's eyes suddenly lit up: "That's right! ”

Then she screamed and rushed into the room: "I have decided, work hard from now on." ”

Zhang Fan couldn't cry or laugh again, shook his head, and could only helplessly mess around with this girl. She is the little princess of the Zhang family, if anyone dares to offend her, the end will be very miserable, even if Zhang Fan, a super master who thinks he is the first on the earth, he will not dare to provoke this guy. In Zhang Fan's opinion, the number one master on the earth should actually be his little sister.

Isn't it? I don't even dare to mess with her, she is not the first, who dares to say that she is the first?

Amidst laughter and play, the family had dinner, and the time passed the night again.

Breakfast was very simple, and after a few minutes, Zhang Fan entered the game.

Walking into the imperial capital of Huangcheng, the crowded streets prove that it is very lively. This ancient city with a history of more than 3,000 years does not have much sense of vicissitudes, but is full of vigorous vitality, and the ancient charm is all left in many subtleties.

The old rule, go to a large inn first.

I stayed in the inn for a full hour. Zhang Fan only vaguely learned some information, but obviously, this information was far from meeting his needs. After all, he was going to investigate the situation of the royal family, and others did not know his purpose. There is no responsibility to tell him otherwise, so there is really not much information in total. And it's too mottled.

The useful information he has received now is: the emperor's name is Liu Qing, the emperor has five sons, three daughters, that is, five princes, three princesses, and now the heir has been determined, the eldest prince has been determined as the next emperor, that is, the crown prince, and three of the remaining four princes are secretly making small movements, which can be described as an undercurrent, but there is a prince who has not moved, and does not seem to be interested in the throne at all, and among the three princesses, two princesses have been married, Liu Yun is the eldest child, that is, the little princess of the empire, There is no one in mind yet.

Other than that, Zhang Fan found nothing.

There are too many things to talk about, too many things to talk about, and most of them talk about the young ascetics who have been in a lot of noise recently, and there is very little talk about the royal family, and it does not involve the internal affairs of the royal family, so even if Zhang Fan listens to it for another day, a year, or even ten years, the result will be the same, and it is impossible to hear any in-depth news.

"Little Er, check out." Zhang Fan paid the bill happily, and left the inn under Xiao Er's respectful gaze.

He inquired on the road, there are many intelligence organizations in the Sente Empire, but the largest intelligence organization is called Qiyetian, and Qiyetian's headquarters happens to be in the imperial capital.

Moreover, it is said that the Seven Nights Sky was probably built by Liu Sheng, the second emperor of the Sente Empire.

Although the second emperor's uncle Liu Sheng did not have much power, he had unparalleled prestige, almost all the people and many officials would sell his face, and when the old emperor was not dead in the early years, he even decided to let Liu Sheng succeed to the throne, but for some reason, Liu Sheng actually refused the throne, which made the throne fall to the current emperor Liu Qing.

"This person, hehe, interesting." Zhang Fan smiled, "Did the prince who didn't fight for the throne also learn from this second emperor uncle?" ”

It's certain that he doesn't love Jiangshan, but as for whether he loves beauties, Zhang Fan doesn't know at present.

I asked passers-by, but I didn't expect Qiyetian to be so famous, and any passer-by knew it.

However, if the leader of this intelligence organization is not from the royal family, I am afraid it will not be so good.

Even if it's a member of the royal family, I'm afraid it's not easy. The reason why Qiyetian can develop to such a point is that the emperor is not wary of Liu Sheng, after all, the throne itself was given to him by Liu Sheng. If another person in the imperial family were to lead this organization, even if it was the emperor's own son, it is estimated that the emperor would never allow it to grow.

is the most ruthless emperor, this sentence is not unreasonable.

The headquarters of Qiyetian is very small, with an area of only five or six hundred square meters, but there are many people, and each member of the organization carries out his own work in an orderly manner, Zhang Fan has to admit that these two emperor uncles still have their own set of management aspects.

Zhang Fan found the steward and directly explained his intention: "Is there any information about the royal family here?" It doesn't need to go too deep, just some basic information. ”

The steward's expression was strange, but he still nodded and said, "Yes, wait a minute." ”

Soon a young man handed a scroll of paper to the steward, the steward nodded, and said to Zhang Fan: "This is what you want, these are not secrets, so you only need 5 gold coins." ”

Of course, 5 gold coins is not cheap, but after all, it comes from the Seven Nights, and with this golden signboard, the price is not too high.

The currencies used in the major game maps of "Brave" are unified into gold and silver coins, of course, there may be diamond coins in the future, but they have not yet appeared.

After paying, Zhang Fan took the paper rolls and immediately looked at them.

"This information, 5 gold coins, is worth it." After Zhang Fan finished reading it, a smile appeared on his face, and he was quite surprised.

The crown prince is in charge of part of the military power, and his personality is domineering, the second prince is scheming, the third prince is talented, the fourth prince is still young, and he is also the son of the queen of the empire today, the fifth prince is the strangest, indifferent to fame and fortune, has no desires, and only wants to live a free life, it seems that nothing in this world can be taken to his heart. However, the five princes, who are indifferent to fame and fortune, are quite close to the little princess Liu Yun, and they seem to have a very good relationship.

The eldest prince, the third prince, the fourth prince and the fifth prince are currently in the palace, and the second prince went to the Luojia Mountains, saying that he wanted to exercise himself.

In addition to this, there is also a brief introduction to the royal family, which is the history and current situation of the royal family.

The steward saw that Zhang Fan had finished reading it, and said, "You get what you pay for, how about it, I didn't let you spend money in vain, right?" ”

"It's worth it." Zhang Fan affirmed.

"I'm curious, though." The steward looked at Zhang Fan curiously, "Why are you buying this information?" Of course, I'm just curious, it doesn't matter if you say it or not. "It's taboo to ask guests about irrelevant things.

Zhang Fan shrugged: "I'm also curious. ”

The steward smiled helplessly: "Okay, I won't ask." ”

Zhang Fan said again: "I'll buy two more pieces of information." ”

"Please."

"The specific location and appearance of the second prince." Zhang Fan smiled slightly, "There is also the specific location of the black dragon." ”

The steward was startled, looking at Zhang Fan dumbfounded, faintly, he seemed to have guessed something.

But, isn't that shocking?

Seeing the steward's expression, Zhang Fan was speechless and said, "Why, this business is not done?" ”

"Do, how can you not do it." The steward reacted, guessing Zhang Fan's identity in his heart, and his face became serious, "But the price is not low, the specific location of the second prince is okay, the specific location of the black dragon is only obtained by us after losing a lot of manpower, and the price is not low." ”

"Just say how much." Zhang Fan waved his hand.

The steward secretly said in his heart, and then quoted: "1000 gold coins, refuse to bargain." ”

Zhang Fan was even more crisp than the steward imagined, and without thinking about it, he directly threw a cloth bag over, which was full of heavy gold coins, and the golden gold coins were about to make people's eyes bright.

"Little Liu, take the *** out, there are guests to buy." The steward summoned his men.

A moment later.

Zhang Fan walked out of the Seven Nights Sky and walked in the opposite direction from when he came, he knew from the introduction of the system why the black dragon caught the little princess Liu Yun, this opportunity is rare, just come and calculate, isn't the royal family calculating themselves? Now let's see who can have the last laugh and let them taste what it's like to be calculated.

Out of the city, Zhang Fan rushed back along an avenue and galloped in the direction of Yangzhou City.

Palace.

Liu Qing was almost out of breath, three days, a full three days, he still hadn't found the mysterious young ascetic, he couldn't find the other party, how should the plan go on?

In another luxurious building, Liu Yun was lying on the bed, holding a rag doll in her hand, and gently hammered the rag doll with her pink fist, and an aggrieved murmur came out of her mouth: "Stinky guy, do you really hate people so much that you don't even want to see them?"
