Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Lost Building Changes
After waiting for a while in the forest, eight people carried two soft sedan chairs to greet them, and only after verifying their identities did they respectfully invite the two into the sedan chair. The two sedan chairs traveled quickly through the dense forest, although Ye Linchen had never set foot in the rivers and lakes, he could still see that the sedan chair bearers were not bad.
Before the half-pillar incense arrived, when he got off the sedan chair, a golden building appeared in front of him. Standing in front of the building, you can see thousands of doors and thousands of households under the compound road are continuous with each other, in addition to the bright lights, the mountain breeze also sends bursts of fragrant aroma.
"Your Highness, we can't get separated......
Before he finished speaking, Ye Linchen had already stood on his side and whispered to catch me. Xie Yaoguang was stunned for a moment, and then he held the corner of his robe with peace of mind, and the two walked into the noisy crowd together.
The scene inside the maze is even more terrifying. Ye Linchen looked around and found that the women inside were all extremely thin plain yarns, although no familiar faces were found at present, but Ye Linchen had already developed an aversion to this kind of place. Seeing Xie Yaoguang pulling him forward as usual, he couldn't help but be stunned.
"Two sons, can you book a place in the maze?" Walking to a verandah, a servant stopped the two and looked at them vigilantly.
"Return to the Yan Palace," Xie Yaoguang raised his lips and said softly.
"Two distinguished guests, please come with the little one, and return to the Yan Palace here." Bent down and lead the two to the other side.
Walking with the little girl, Xie Yaoguang raised his eyes and looked around, catching a glimpse of the marks engraved in the corner, and the smile in his eyes sank. Quietly holding Ye Linchen's hand, the delicate palm slid across the palm with a thin callus. I can't help but recall the past, and slightly narrow my eyes to hide the strange emotions that are surging between the bead pupils.
"The two distinguished guests are Guiyan Palace, if you need anything, just order that there are maidservants waiting outside." Pushed open the door for the two of them, bowed down and said warmly.
"There is work"
As soon as the little servant left, Xie Yaoguang immediately dismissed the maid who was kneeling on the road outside and waiting, pulled Ye Linchen into the inner room, and sat down on his knees.
"Your Highness, my men have already infiltrated the maze. Hide in the dark and wait for my order" Xie Yaoguang got up and pushed open the window, a slight smile on his face, and the meaning in his eyes did not reach the bottom, "The purpose of asking Your Highness to enter the bureau today is to ask you to personally remove the tumor of the Ministry of Officials." ”
"What do you need me to do?" The color in his eyes was slightly dark, and he looked at Xie Yaoguang suspiciously.
Xie Yaoguang's eyes were heavy, and his tone was extremely indifferent, "It's not difficult." There is an account book hidden in a private room on the top floor, and we have to take it away. This list records in detail the amount of money that Fu Shugu has collected for King Shou and Bai Caishu over the years, but Your Highness, you can only give the part of Bai Caishu that has glory to Gao Yuyan, and he will present it to the emperor. ”
Hearing her say that Ye Linchen was slightly surprised, and then the surprise was in his eyes.
Xie Yaoguang was surprised to see him, and told Ye Linchen everything he knew, and with her soft voice, Ye Linchen's eyes were a few inches deeper. Although I knew that Jinling officialdom was chaotic, I never expected that it could be so chaotic.
Jinling alone is so dark, let alone other places? Bai Caishu has been in charge of the Ministry of Officials for King Shou for many years, and countless officials have been transferred by him, infiltrating the court. Who can guarantee that these people did not plunder the people for their own selfish interests, in order to please the king of Shou?
The hand between the sleeves of the robe clenched.
"Your Highness is too impatient to think about it, but when I persuaded King Shou, he didn't listen and almost got on his head. Now I still have to tell you the four words 'Xu Xu Tuzhi', even if King Shou is wrong, he is now the prince favored by His Majesty, and a ministry can't bring him down. All you have to do is eat away at his power little by little. Raising his eyes to look at Ye Linchen's face, he was soft, but his eyes were as sharp as a rakshasa.
As soon as the person at the top falls down the clouds, it is easy to teach people to notice, and only a little bit of cannibalization of his retreat, so that he has no way to retreat is the best way.
"I'm not that reckless." After looking at her for a moment, Ye Linchen's eyes gathered an undercurrent and hid in the depths, and he hooked his lips slightly, "I just hope that this time I can bring down the officials as soon as possible." ”
"Your Highness, take a look~ My knife is already hanging above Bai Caishu's head"
The music and dance in the maze are endless, and there is danger lurking in it. The sound of porcelain shattering came from the ears, followed by the swords and swords that shook everywhere. I don't know who hid in the shadows and shouted, kill someone.
Under the exclamation, someone fell from the third floor and fell heavily into the pool, and the guests who were originally hugging the pool dispersed in a hurry when they saw this scene, and looked at the people lying in the pool with angry eyes and convulsions.
When they saw the blood gushing from the back of the man's head, the exclamations were like a tidal wave rushing madly in all directions. The guests who were still talking and laughing pushed each other and ran out, and some even climbed with them.
Just a few people ran to the corridor, and the snow flashed in front of them, clutching their necks and struggling. It turned out that there were more than a dozen dead soldiers in black clothes in the building, and the person at the head swept over everyone with a cold gaze, raised his hand and motioned for the rest of the people to move, and suddenly the candles in the building were all extinguished, and the sword wind was cold in his ears.
The fairyland on earth turned into purgatory in an instant.
"Your Highness, we can do it." Xie Yaoguang took off his mask and raised his eyes and said, "Zhuo Jing will drag them down there." Let's go and steal the books. ”
"Shall I go if I don't do it? You're not in good health and the dangers in this building are unknown, so it's safer for you to stay here. Looking at her face, she said in a deep voice.
Blinking to hide the smile that welled up in his eyes, Xie Yaoguang slowly pulled his lips, "Although I don't know martial arts, my health is not good, but... I can still travel this way. Your Highness doesn't have much time, and we move fast. ”
Seeing that her face was calm and composed, she did not panic at all. And Ye Linchen has also seen her exquisite methods, since she can get out of the palace, it must not be too difficult. What's more, Ye Linchen felt that with Xie Yaoguang's wisdom, he was close to the demon, and if he was not sure, he would not rashly take risks. Then he nodded and agreed to Xie Yaoguang's proposal.
The two of them walked out slowly under the cover of darkness, hiding in the dark and looking at the guards in the maze who kept coming out, Xie Yaoguang's eyes bloomed with a hint of coldness, and he turned his eyes to pick up a knife from the corpse on the ground and handed it to Ye Linchen.
"Your Highness, there should be someone in front of you."
"I know what to do. You be careful" Ye Linchen swept his eyes around the darkness and held Xie Yaoguang's hand.
Sensing that his hand was clenched by Ye Linchen, a smile appeared on his lips. The two walked hand in hand to the third floor of the maze, and there were many obstacles along the way. However, it may be because the elite of the lost building went downstairs to deal with Zhuo Jing and others, and the guards left behind were just some lowly martial artists. Ye Linchen had a sword in his hand, and the place where the two of them walked was shocked.
Xie Yaoguang frowned and lifted the hem of his clothes in disgust and stepped over the corpse on the ground.
Even though all the guards encountered on the road were lowly martial arts, it still took a short time to reach the corridor on the third floor. Xie Yaoguang's eyes lifted and dragged Ye Linchen, staring around vigilantly.
"What's wrong?"
"Someone"
The hand between the sleeves touched a small brocade box, and the delicate fingertips slid over the hidden buckle on the box. At the moment when the fierce sword qi came closely, the two looked at each other, and each dodged to the side in a very tacit understanding to avoid this sudden sword.
"Your Excellency is good." The man who came withdrew his sword and exclaimed.
