Chapter 143: The Second Enters the Palace

However, although Qi Yuankai is the master of Zhengxiang, most of the time he is not among the post-80s Shaolin abbots, because he was ordered by the former Black Dragon Envoy Zhang Danyue to infiltrate Prince Kang's mansion as a martial artist, and secretly investigate the whereabouts of the forty-two chapters in Prince Kang's mansion. Because he is not very free to act in the palace, in order to avoid attracting attention, the affairs of the Shaolin abbot after the 80s are all in charge of the deputy incense master Zhang Laosan, Qi Yuankai only occasionally comes back to deal with some things that Zhang Laosan is not good to do, which is also the reason why Zhang Laosan escorted Ling Muyun to Shenlong Island last time.

However, Ling Muyun still admires this Qi Yuankai, in the original history, he did find out the whereabouts of the forty-two chapters of the Zhenghongqi in Prince Kang's mansion, first bought off the palace servants, and found the right opportunity to let a martial artist surnamed Lang in the palace break face and force him to leave, and then colluded with the palace servant who bought it in advance to steal the forty-two chapters, and killed people, leading the suspicion to the martial artist surnamed Lang who was forced to leave, and picking himself cleanly, and the thing can be described as leakless.

If it weren't for the fact that he ran into Wei Xiaobao, who was a little unlucky, and but happened to bump into his actions, so that he secretly took away the forty-two chapters he hid after he left, and the matter could be said to have been done in a complete way. Therefore, Ling Muyun also attached great importance to him, and decided that if this Qi Yuankai knew each other and was willing to sincerely serve under him, he would not mind carrying him with him.

After summoning all the members of the Black Dragon Gate Yanjing Branch, Ling Muyun did not find the three people he had seen in the palace before, Mao Dongzhu, Liu Yan and Deng Bingchun. After asking Qi Yuankai, I learned that Mao Dongzhu and the others were the dark lines that the former Black Dragon made Zhang Danyue bother to put into the palace, and they were not affiliated with the Yanjing Branch, unless there was any necessary situation, generally speaking, there was no horizontal connection with the Yanjing Branch, but under the direct leadership of Zhang Danyue.

Therefore, even Qi Yuankai and Zhang Laosan, who are the main and deputy incense masters of the Yanjing Branch, only vaguely know that Mao Dongzhu and the others seem to be lurking in the palace, as for how they lurked in and what their identities are in the palace, they don't know anything. Even when Ling Muyun approached Mao Dongzhu and others to ask for a religion, Mao Dongzhu and others first sent the news back to Zhang Danyue, the black dragon envoy at that time, and then Zhang Danyue gave an order to Qi Yuankai and Zhang Laosan.

This also couldn't help but make Ling Muyun sigh in his heart, no wonder the Shenlong Sect, as the number one cult organization in the Luding world, has tens of thousands of members, but it has always been mysterious, neither known by the rivers and lakes, nor detected by the Qing court, this secrecy work is really done in place, even compared with the underground workers of a certain party in later generations. If it weren't for the unfortunate urging of Wei Xiaobao, who was a lucky person, he would not have ended up with a miserable end of ruin.

Fortunately, with Ling Muyun succeeding Zhang Danyue and being promoted to the head of the Black Dragon Gate, Mao Dongzhu and others naturally became his subordinates, and before leaving the island, Zhang Danyue also told him the contact information of Mao Dongzhu and others, but he always thought that Mao Dongzhu and the others also belonged to the Yanjing Branch of the Black Dragon Gate, so he did not specifically notify them separately.

After meeting with the members of the Yanjing branch of the Black Dragon Gate, Ling Muyun began to prepare for the forty-two chapters. The first thing to do is naturally to contact Mao Dongzhu and others in the palace, and calculate that it has been two months since he first came to the capital, that is to say, it has been nearly two months since Wei Xiaobao entered the palace, and Wei Xiaobao must have gained a firm foothold in the palace at this time, and it is estimated that he has also hooked up with Kangxi's little pockmarked emperor, he has to remind Mao Dongzhu and others, so as not to be suspicious because of Wei Xiaobao accidentally caught a glimpse of the suspicion in the original history, and then Wei Xiaobao broke a big thing.

Ling Muyun first ordered Zhang Laosan to find a residence in the capital and live in it with Lu Gaoxuan, although he appreciated the Yanjing Branch's practice of setting up the hall in the Ji Yuan, it did not mean that he was willing to live in the Ji Yuan. After arranging a place to stay, Ling Muyun began to contact Mao Dongzhu and others in the palace according to the contact information given by Zhang Danyue.

Less than three days after the contact code was sent, someone from Mao Dongzhu and his group came to the door, and it was none other than Deng Bingchun. It turned out that among Mao Dongzhu and his group, Mao Dongzhu and Liu Yan had been lurking in Cining Palace for a long time, and it was not convenient to leave the palace, and Deng Bingchun, as a man, was not easy to hide in the palace, and he was not often in the palace, and only occasionally entered the palace to meet Mao Dongzhu and others, so Deng Bingchun acted as the contact person between Mao Dongzhu and others and the headquarters of the Shenlong Sect in the middle.

At first sight of Ling Muyun, Deng Bingchun was shocked, because of their secretive behavior, the contact with the sect was not very frequent, so they didn't even know about the big thing of changing the black dragon envoy in the sect, and they didn't expect that the new head envoy was Ling Muyun, who had a conflict with them a few days ago and cleaned them up. However, in the face of the Five Dragons Order that Ling Muyun took out and Lu Gaoxuan who accompanied him, he had to accept this fact.

In addition to being shocked, Deng Bingchun couldn't help but be inexplicable, you must know that they had all clashed with Ling Muyun before, who knows if Ling Muyun will take the opportunity to take revenge? However, Ling Muyun did not deliberately embarrass him as he thought, but only briefly informed them of the fact that he replaced Zhang Danyue in charge of the Black Dragon Gate, and asked him to go back and inform Mao Dongzhu and the others that he was going to enter the palace to inspect the work in the near future, and then let Deng Bingchun leave.

…… Soon Ling Muyun entered the palace again, but unlike last time, this time it was not sneaked in, but under the leadership of Ruidong, the deputy commander of the imperial guard, Mao Dongzhu, the queen mother, did not do it for nothing, although she herself was inconvenient to enter and leave the palace because of her special status, but it was easy to bring someone in or send someone out.

Ling Muyun came to the door of Cining Palace under the leadership of Ruidong, only to see an obese figure waiting at the door, it was Liu Yan who was lurking in the palace with Mao Dongzhu as a palace maid. Seeing that it was Liu Yan, Na Ruidong hurriedly took two steps forward and bowed to Liu Yan and said, "Liu Gong'e, the person and slave that the Queen Mother wants to see have already been brought." ”

Liu Yan nodded, and said lightly: "I know, I have brought it here, even if your errand is done, go down first, if the Queen Mother still has instructions, she will send someone to find you again." ”

"Yes, the minions are retired." Ruidong bowed respectfully, then turned to leave.

Seeing that Rui Dong was walking away, Liu Yan glanced around, and saw that there was no one in the way, so he hurriedly "pounced" and knelt on the ground, and bowed respectfully to Ling Muyun: "Liu Yan, the deacon of the Black Dragon Gate Secret Hall, is in charge. ”

Because of Deng Bingchun's notice in advance, Liu Yan already knew Ling Muyun's new identity. Like Deng Bingchun, she was shocked and terrified, after all, the previous meeting between them and Ling Muyun was not pleasant, especially her and Deng Bingchun, the conflict with the new head envoy was particularly serious, if Ling Muyun still held a grudge, then she still had a good one? It must be known that the division of the upper and lower levels of the Divine Dragon Sect is very strict and ruthless, and the superiors have the power to kill and kill the subordinates, that is to say, if Ling Muyun wants her to die, she doesn't even need to do it herself, just one sentence is enough, how can Liu Yan not be afraid?

Ling Muyun nodded, and said lightly: "Get up, this is the palace after all, there are many people, and once you are seen, it will inevitably cause unnecessary trouble, so some etiquette things can be avoided." ”

"Thank you, the envoy." Liu Yan, who was lying on the ground, hurriedly responded respectfully and stood up.

Sneaking a glance at Ling Muyun, seeing that Ling Muyun's face was calm and joyless, Liu Yan couldn't help but feel uneasy in her heart, when people are afraid, they always like to be cranky, Liu Yan is like this, the more she thinks about it, the more she feels that Ling Muyun must be quiet before the storm, and the calmer she is now, the more ruthless the means when she attacks later, although she also expects Ling Muyun to let her go magnanimously, but the more she thinks about it, the more she feels that her surname may be too small.

Looking at Liu Yan, whose face was changing, Ling Muyun could guess a little bit about her thoughts, and he couldn't help but be secretly funny in his heart, this Liu Yan couldn't help but underestimate him, how could he Ling Muyun not even have this little belly? However, although he was not ready to pursue it, he couldn't deliberately appease Liu Yan, because she was not worth it for him to do this, whether she could think it through, and when she could think it clearly, it was up to her. Besides, it is not a good way to make subordinates feel awe.

"The person who brought in this seat just now doesn't seem to be a member of our sect, right?" Ling Muyun asked towards Liu Yan.

Although he is familiar with the original work, he knows Ruidong and his person, and knows that this Ruidong is under the orders of the fake Queen Mother Mao Dongzhu, but after all, this Ruidong died too early, and he was basically deceived by Wei Xiaobao as soon as he appeared, so he really doesn't know much about this person.

"The head of Qiqi, the person who brought you in is named Rui Dong, he is the deputy commander of the imperial guard, and he is also the senior sister's cronies she accepted in the palace, and she is extremely loyal to her senior sister, although she is not a member of this sect, but she is extremely reliable, and every time Senior Brother Deng enters and leaves the palace, it is also arranged by this Ruidong, so there is no need to worry about him leaking secrets."

"Since this is the case, then I can rest assured, you are in the palace and hidden in the heart of the Qing court, you must be cautious and cautious, and you must not be negligent in the slightest."

"Yes, the head of the family will teach the subordinates to keep it in mind and dare not slack off."

"Hmm." Ling Muyun nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay, let's lead the way ahead, I'm a little dazzling here, if I have anything to say, I'll talk about it later." ”
