Chapter 52: Tracking
Dugu Xue quickly packed her luggage and prepared to leave the palace, Murong Mufeng had already learned from the secret guard that Dugu Xue had resigned to Yuwei today. Because he was afraid that Dugu Xue would find out that he was from the palace, he specially arranged for a man in black to follow Dugu Xue.
"After returning from the palace, this king has tried Duguxue several times with masters, but the people who tempted her have suffered at her hands. It shows that in addition to Dugu Xue's disguise technique, her martial arts are also very good. So you must keep your distance when you follow, the point is to find out who the person behind her is, don't startle the snake! Murong Mufeng said.
"Yes, Lord Wang!" Murong Mufeng deliberately selected a few masters who had made light achievements to carry out this mission. With a whoosh, several men in black disappeared.
Dugu Xue had just left the palace and walked for a while, feeling that someone was following her around, so she hurriedly quickened her pace, and the man in black followed behind and also quickened her pace, and from time to time she changed her formation to walk.
Dugu Xue took advantage of this time to sneak into a large teahouse and hide in an unmanned room. In the shortest possible time, he walked out of the teahouse in the form of a man.
"Do you see where she went?" One man in black asked the other man in black.
"I didn't see it, I obviously saw her come in, why is she gone? The brothers outside are also guarding the four doors, can they still spread their wings and fly away? Another man in black said.
"Let's go, let's report to the boss!" A man in black suggested.
"Okay!" The men in black left the teahouse in unison.
"Boss, we already saw her when we chased her in!" A man in black said in annoyance.
The black-clothed man at the head was none other than Murong Mufeng's right-hand man, Ma Jingsong, with bright eyes, a tall nose, and dark skin that could not hide his handsome facial features.
Ma Jingsong replied calmly: "No need to waste your efforts, the people have already run away."
"Ran away? Boss, we've just gone through the entire teahouse, and we don't see a single figure! Several exits to the teahouse were covered by the brethren, how did she run away? Could it be that he still flew with wings? A man in black wondered.
"It seems that you don't know who you are following, and today we are following a disguiser master. She's disguised herself as a man and has fled right under your noses. Ma Jingsong patted the dust on his body and said.
"Boss, how do you know?" The man in black asked in surprise.
Maybe because she was in a hurry, she didn't have time to prepare too much, and she probably didn't expect someone to follow her. Although she has changed into a man's appearance, she has not changed a pair of men's shoes. Just when she came out, a gust of wind lifted the corner of her clothes, and I saw a big man wearing a pair of pink embroidered shoes, so I thought that person was her. I know where she's gone, come with me! Ma Jingsong said confidently, turned around and jumped onto the roof.
"Yes, Boss!" The man in black followed closely where Ma Jingsong flew to.
Dugu Xue thought that she had escaped the tracking, so she relaxed her vigilance.
Knock knock, squeak, the door of the outer courtyard of the Xuanling Pavilion was opened, and it was Suzaku who opened the door.
"Cher, you're back! We miss you! Suzaku said happily.
Dugu Xue carefully covered Suzaku's mouth: "Shhh Someone was following me just now, and I got rid of it, so let's go in and talk about it. With that, he followed Suzaku in and closed the door.
"Boss, they're in!" This scene was seen by Ma Jingsong, who was hiding on the roof.
Ma Jingsong asked, "What kind of place is this?"
The man in black said: "Boss, this is the west of the city, the poorest place in the entire Furong country, beggars and thieves all live here, and ordinary people are reluctant to come here."
"Looking for a chance, find out where this is?" Ma Jingsong ordered.
"Yes, Boss!"
Back in the palace, Murong Mufeng was sorting out the recitals handed over to him by the emperor in the study. These twists and turns may seem unrelated, but they are inextricably linked. But they all pointed the finger at the Sutan country, which has been rich in mineral and iron resources since ancient times, so many weapons are made by the Sutan country.
According to the spies' response, a large number of weapons were recently found in the cave outside the Sutan country's mine, these weapons have great lethality, and the strange thing is that these weapons were not transported back to the Sutan country's arsenal after they were completed, but were transported to a cave near the border with the Furong country. Due to the wide and mountainous area of the border, and their secretive behavior, the spies have not been able to find out where the specific mountain where the weapons are hidden.
I discussed this matter with the emperor yesterday and felt that this matter would definitely have an adverse impact on the Furong Kingdom. The longer you find this mountain, the greater the impact.
Just when Murong Mufeng was not raising his eyebrows, Yu Wei came in.
"Lord Wang, I heard that you have been so busy for two days that you haven't even eaten lunch. The concubine stewed chicken soup for you and sent it over, can you try it and still be appetizing? Yuwei brought a bowl of warm chicken soup and sent it over.
Murong Mufeng put down the fold in his hand, took the chicken soup in Yuwei's hand, and drank it.
"The princess's craftsmanship is really good, and this is the first time that this king has drunk the soup you cooked with your own hands." Murong Mufeng's words were full of unconcealable joy.
"If it's delicious, drink more, the concubine cooked a lot today, and let the Lingxi come over in a while." Yu Wei smiled. Looking at the Murong Mufeng in front of him, he gradually became less annoying, thinking of what he had done for himself, Yu Wei thought that it was natural for him to cook some chicken soup to thank him.
"I don't know what makes the prince so sad? It's better to say it and let the concubines help you share it. Yu Wei asked bravely. In fact, she knew that in ancient times, women could not interfere in political affairs, but she still wanted to help Murong Mufeng do something.
Unexpectedly, Murong Mufeng was not angry, he put down the chicken soup in his hand, picked up a scroll of folds on the case and said, "You will know after reading this fold." Yu Wei took the fold and looked at it seriously.
"Now the emperor means that you want to find out the location of those weapons?" Yuwei asked.
"Yes. However, there are many mountains at the junction of the Sutan Kingdom and the Furong Kingdom, and if you look for them one by one, you may not be able to find them, and it is easy to startle the snakes. Murong Mufeng said.
"What happens if I can't find it?" Yu Wei continued to ask.
"If you can't find it, there are two possible consequences. The first is that these weapons are used against us, if so, then there will be a tough battle to be fought, so hurting the innocent, the emperor does not want to see it. The second is that if it is not like that, then these weapons may quietly flow into the Furong Kingdom, such a large number of weapons are not wanted by the emperor, so who will want it? The one who wants it must have bad intentions. Murong Mufeng analyzed.
Yu Wei thought of one thing that Bai Li Lin had said before, Ouyang Feng and Su Tanguo had a relationship with him in private, and he didn't know how much this matter had to do with him. So even if Yu Wei thought about it in her heart, she didn't dare to say it.
Knock knock, the beauty between the two was disturbed like this.
Murong Mufeng asked with some regret, "Who is it?"
"Lord Wang, it's Lingxi. Can the spirit rhino come in? "Outside the door is that cute little rhino.
"Come in." Seeing that Lingxi had already made his own shield, Ma Jingsong followed behind with confidence.
"Lord Wang, General Ma is here." Lingxi reported.
Seeing Ma Jingsong coming, Yu Wei blessed her body and said: "Since the prince has official business, the concubine will retire first." After a while, the concubine asked Lingxi to send the chicken soup later. ”
"Okay, hard work princess!" Murong Mufeng watched Yu Wei leave with a happy face.
"Ahem!"
"General Ma, what did you find?" Murong Mufeng came back to his senses and asked.
"Back to the prince, we followed Duguxue to the teahouse, and she disguised herself as a man and went to a house in the west of the city." Ma Jingsongyu reports.
"You saw her go in?"
"Yes, my lord. The little one has already sent someone to investigate the situation there. Please rest assured! ”
Murong Mufeng continued: "It's good to leave this matter to the people below, now I have something more important for you to do."
"Lord Wang, please speak, as long as Ma can do it, he will do his best to do his best!" Ma Jingsong replied.
Murong Mufeng took a map of the junction of Furong Country and Sutan Kingdom to Ma Jingsong and said: "There are a large number of weapons hidden in these mountains, you can take a few brothers with strong martial arts to explore the way and find the specific location of the mountain where the weapons are hidden." According to the spies, the people who transported the weapons were very cruel and should be safe when acting. And you must be secretive, don't startle the snake! ”
"Yes! Lord Wang," Ma Jingsong said and withdrew.
After Ma Jingsong left, Murong Mufeng thought about it seriously and instructed Lingxi: "Lingxi, invite Duanmu Luyou over." ”
"Yes, sir!"
After a pillar of incense, Lingxi walked in with a tall girl. In addition to being taller, this girl is an out-and-out beauty. Everywhere she went, she attracted a large number of eyes, and the tall girl was not shy, and from time to time she blinked and discharged electricity at them.
"The little girl participates in the prince's green tour~" The voice is like a kingfisher on a tree, gentle and moving, and most men in the world will have a feeling of soft bones when they hear it. Lingxi knew that something was wrong as soon as he saw his prince's face, so he hurriedly slipped out, closed the door and retreated the guards within one meter of the door.
Murong Mufeng still said with a cool face in the face of such a charming girl: "Duanmu Luyou, can you take off your mask for this king!" Every time you come to see this king, don't you dare to show your true face? ”
"Oh, Lord Wang, you have been so cruel to Lu You since you were a child. Could it be that today's beauty of the law is still not in the eyes of the prince? I did an experiment just now, and this dough can charm 99% of men. Lord Wang, you are the unique one percent. Duanmu Luyou said as he tore off the mask on his face, revealing a face that was exactly the same as Murong Mufeng.
When Murong Mufeng saw it, his face became even darker, and Duanmu Luyou didn't seem to see it and kept saying: "Lord Wang, look at how this mask is, I finally made this mask, I believe that it can definitely be fake." It's just that I don't know how Lingxi would feel if he opened the door and saw a prince wearing women's clothes? Duanmu Luyou snickered as he spoke, completely unaware of Murong Mufeng's darkening face. This is entirely a prelude to a volcanic eruption.
